Biden's off the hook, say our media. So what if he and his son engaged in obvious influence-peddling and indulged glaring conflicts of interest. This one FBI source appears to have lied about them.
Not Christopher Steele-level lying, you understand. Oh no -- we don't prosecute people for sending the FBI on a wild goosechase when Trump is the target. No -- this "trusted" source went after Joe.
Meanwhile, the prosecutor going after Trump in Georgia thinks it's perfectly all right that she dated a colleague and hid that from the rest of her team, as well as the court, and it didn't break any rules.
Oh, and in New York, Trump has to fork over a significant part of his fortune because a judge with bad hair and an elected prosecutor with an axe to grind decided to punish him for being Trump.
If that doesn't just make you want to vote for him, just to spite all of these fools who are dragging the country down, I don't know what else will. This is the most absurd political situation in our lifetimes.
I should have noted in my message about the weekly Torah portion that this week is Shabbat Chazon, the Sabbath of Vision. We are about to mourn -- but see through that pain to something better that lies beyond, on the other side.
Wishing you the best vision -- and an incredible reality to follow. It happens!
We begin the final speech of Moses to the people of Israel before they enter the Promised Land. He relates the ups and downs of the years of wandering in the desert, before, finally, the people have the merit to enter the land itself.
This Sabbath always precedes Tisha B'Av, the Ninth of Av, the saddest day on the Jewish calendar. It is the anniversary of the destruction of both of the Holy Temples, and a catch-all for many calamities that befell the Jewish people.
A word on Tisha B'Av. This year I am leaving for an overseas trip during the afternoon of the holiday -- in the middle of a fast day. Not idea, but there was no other choice. But my flight is in the afternoon, which is significant.
We relax some of the harsh, mournful customs of the day in the afternoon. We start to pray normally; we sit on regular chairs; we start to have hope again in the redemption that will, one day, lead us all back from exile to our home.
I'll be taking a trip to a land where an important part of ...
President Trump is in Scotland, playing golf and making big trade deals -- a major deal with the EU, in fact. Meanwhile, there is a global outcry about humanitarian aid to Palestinians (not about the Israeli hostages, mind you).
On top of that, Democrats are at their lowest polling numbers ever -- so they are trying to win control of the House by redistricting in the middle of a 10-year Census cycle. Oh, economic optimism is up, so they have a tough road.
And Tulsi Gabbard's revelations about the Russia collusion investigation make it clear that Obama's lieutenants lied to Congress. How deeply was he himself involved? The media continue to ignore the evidence, but we certainly won't.
