Biden Only Condemns Political Violence When Committed by Republicans
|
Spencer Brown: In Wednesday’s White House press briefing, Karine Jean-Pierre claimed that President Joe Biden “has always condemned political violence,” but as usual the White House’s blanket statements are incongruent with the reality of Biden’s previous statements. In this case, it’s how Biden addressed the rampant political violence carried out by radical Antifa rioters who destroyed American cities, gutted small businesses, and assaulted federal buildings ( Townhall). Townhall: KJP TODAY: Biden “has always condemned political violence.” BIDEN IN 2020: “Antifa is an idea, not an organization, not malicious” ( Twitter). Axios: The vandalism and looting following the death of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis police will cost the insurance industry more than any other violent demonstrations in recent history. The arson, vandalism and looting that did occur will result in at least $1 billion to $2 billion of paid insurance claims ( Axios).

|

Ben Shapiro: If the current election numbers in Israel hold … an extremely durable mandate…. Major victory for Bibi ( Twitter).Wall Street Journal: The results represent a stunning return to power for Israel’s longest-serving prime minister, who also remains a deeply divisive figure.

South Korea Launches ICBM, Smaller Missiles in Response to US, South Korea Training Exercises
|
Fox News: The U.S. and South Korean militaries are extending joint air force drills into this weekend after North Korea fired an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICMB), as well as two short, range missiles Thursday. ICBMs are devices capable of traveling nearly across the globe to deliver a nuclear warhead. North Korea conducted a record 20 missile launches on Wednesday alone as the U.S. and South Korea flew hundreds of aircraft to simulate operations ( Fox News). CNN: However, within hours of the presumed failed test, Washington and Seoul agreed to extend those large-scale exercises to an unknown date, according to a statement from the South Korean Air Force, which said “it was necessary to demonstrate a solid combined defense posture of the bilateral alliance under the current security crisis, heightened by North Korea’s provocations” ( CNN).

CNN’s New Morning Show with Don Lemon Flops
|
Fox News: CNN replaced its long-struggling morning show “New Day” with a heavily promoted program centered around left-wing host Don Lemon, but viewership issues remained the same. The launch of “CNN This Morning” attracted only 387,000 total viewers on Tuesday, when the ensemble morning program featuring Lemon, Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins officially replaced “New Day.” By comparison, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” managed 793,000 viewers and “FOX & Friends” averaged 1.5 million on the same morning ( Fox News). Washington Examiner: Wednesday night, it was revealed that Jake Tapper’s CNN Tonight with Jake Tapper is being canceled by the network, and the host will be returning to his 4:00 p.m. time slot after the election ( Washington Examiner).

Climate Change Activist Greta Thunberg Targets Capitalism
|
Townhall: Climate change activist Greta Thunberg, who has been propped up by global elites and central planners since she was a child, is finally admitting her activism isn’t about saving the environment. Instead, it’s about tearing down capitalism and implementing communist, government controlled systems around the world ( Townhall).

Twitter to Begin Mass Layoffs
|
National Review: Mass layoffs are set to begin at Twitter on Friday, just over a week after billionaire Elon Musk officially took control of the company.

The layoffs are expected to target the sales, trust and safety, marketing, product, engineering, and legal teams ( National Review).
