Who said there was no news in summer? Last week, the Hunter Biden plea deal imploded, and the next day there were more charges against former President Donald Trump... while Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell had a health scare. High drama, anyone?
Plus, on Monday, former Hunter Biden business partner Devon Archer is set to testify at the House Oversight Committee -- behind closed doors, but what he says is sure to be explosive, and could affect the president's chances of reelection... are Democrats getting nervous?

One noteworthy passage concerns Amalek, the evil nation that attacked the Children of Israel as they made their Exodus from slavery to freedom. Deuteronomy 25:17-19 commands Jews to obliterate Amalek's memory.
The South African government accused Israel of genocide on the basis of a story about Amalek in the Book of Samuel, in which King Saul was commanded to wipe out the entire evil Amalekite nation.
Because Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quoted this week's portion -- "Remember what Amalek did to you" (25:17), the South African government claimed he was commanding soldiers to commit genocide.
It was an absurd and malevolent misreading of the Bible and of Jewish tradition. The commandment, as observed by Jews today, is to remember the evil of Amalek and fight ...
