1. Trump was right all along: Hunter Biden's job was to protect Burisma from a prosecutor, and Joe Biden had him fired using the threat of U.S. loan guarantees. Trump was impeached for being right.
2. Biden lied all along: He lied about not talking to his family about their businesses; he lied about his family not making money from China; he lied about not having anything to do with Burisma.
3. Dan Goldman is a clown: He played the role of fearsome prosecutor when empowered by Adam Schiff during the impeachment inquiry. But today he tried to defend the indefensible.
4. The media are pathetic: Now they are trying to pretend everyone knew all along that Biden had talked to his son's business partners, when in fact no one outside conservative media reported it or cared.
5. The DOJ is part of the coverup: They are going after Trump while trying to cut sweetheart deals for Hunter Biden that would bury the evidence of Joe Biden's wrongs -- and they are doing it in plain sight.
That's just the beginning. But essentially Biden is a corrupt family boss, and the media have covered for him, and Democrats have bought into hoax after hoax after hoax. It might eventually bite them.
This week's portion elucidates some of the first laws and principles of the Torah that follow the Ten Commandments, including -- a message particularly relevant to freed slaves -- the Jewish restrictions on indentured servitude.
God also provides the basic civil laws of Jewish society, governing almost every area of life -- in this one portion! -- as well as several basic principles of faith and religious observance. Moses then ascends Sinai for 40 days.
One of the laws God gives is the law against taunting a foreigner. This is different from allowing people to enter your land illegally; it is about showing respect, however, for people from other lands and other groups.
I am reminded of the importance of this principle because of the rhetoric lately attacking Elon Musk, a fellow South African-turned-American, for his foreign roots -- often by people who favor illegal immigration, ironically.

Since the Palisades Fire on January 7, my posts have been fairly sparse. I have just been so busy -- fighting the fire, covering the fire, helping neighbors, and launching a new podcast, "Three Homeless Guys," with two local friends.
Things are up and down. My family is still displaced, and we haven't resolved our living situation. We are awaiting answers from the insurance company (State Farm) on what they will cover, including alternative living expenses.
There are some incredible opportunities opening up -- more on that later -- and our kids are generally doing well, though this has been hard for them as well (especially the two middle kids, who miss their friends and their house).
The emotion of it all hit me yesterday. Today I feel wrung out. But I also feel that, in a way, going through the fire has been a process of refinement, of re-casting in a new mould, to face new challenges. And to win each new day.
