BY ALANA GOODMAN OCT 21 2026 ---------------------- A public middle school in the Berkeley, California, school district held fundraisers to raise money for a group with “fiscal and personnel ties” to a Palestinian terrorist organization, a House Committee on Education and Workforce report released on Wednesday found. The district’s superintendent also promoted the organization in a district-wide teaching guide, according to the report. Students at Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School, a public school in Berkeley, California, held the fundraisers for the Middle East Children’s Alliance, a nonprofit group that funds programming in Gaza, emails obtained by the committee show. Mariam Al-Shawaf, an official at the school, wrote in a March 2024 email that the school’s South and Southwest Asia and North Africa student group “will be doing a bake sale and Palestine bracelet sale to raise money for the Middle East Children’s Alliance.” Kathleen Marte, an English language development lead teac...

BY ELIANA JONSHON OCT 22 2026 -------------------- Abdul El-Sayed (Scott Legato/Getty Images for MoveOn) At least six men who joined Abdul El-Sayed in signing a notorious 2012 letter calling for a Muslim Brotherhood “purge” of the media and police have also donated handsomely to his two runs for office, mostly to his current Senate campaign, records reviewed by the Free Beacon show. The total haul from his fellow Brotherhood backers—who, along with El-Sayed and other “leaders of the Egyptian community,” voiced support for Egypt’s struggling Muslim Brotherhood government—was at least $25,850, according to the records. The donors include Dr. Hany Saqr, who signed the letter as part of the “Egyptian Association in America” and has given at least $1,000 to El-Sayed’s Senate campaign. He was listed in a 1992 phone directory of U.S.-based Muslim Brotherhood leaders submitted by federal prosecutors as part of the 2008 terror financing case against the Holy Land Foundation. Another donor, Dr....

BY MIKE WATSON OCT 17 2026 ----------- Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump (Andrew Harnik/Getty Images) Donald Trump’s relationship with Vladimir Putin has long been the subject of controversy, and the recent diesel purchase agreement brought it back into the spotlight. Setting aside the feverish accusations that Trump is somehow Putin’s subordinate, many think the president is overly deferential to the blood-soaked tyrant or even sympathetic to Putin’s open disdain for Western pieties. Trump is not eager to antagonize Putin, and he clearly believes there is still a deal to be had with Moscow. But that does not mean he sees Putin as a charter member of some new world order. Rather, Trump is trying to squeeze as much value out of the relationship as he can. Putin, though, is increasingly unable to deliver. There is a strategic logic behind Trump’s open hand to Moscow. The increasingly close alignment between Russia and China multiplies America’s international problems. That alignment is ...

But in previously unreported videos, El-Sayed said his “heart races” when he sees cops because they’ve “never” helped him and suggested police officers should not carry guns, the Free Beacon’s Chuck Ross reports. El-Sayed made the remarks on two podcasts in 2020 and 2021, at the height of the Black Lives Matter-inspired movement to defund the police. “In my experience, the police have never been out there to help me,” he said in a Feb. 15, 2021 interview, recounting a conversation with his grandfather, who told him “the police are out there to help you.” ...
HELLO ELIANA The headline’s situational paradox is not unrelated to that subtle story—setting aside differences in scale, context, and fiction. Without resorting to irony or austerity—and leaving the editorial aside—gluttony, in the literal sense, is always a poor guide. Looking to art, works like The Merchant of Venice and The Miser (not to mention the Old Testament) illustrate the pitfalls to be avoided for the sake of prudence. Yet, like weeds, imitators spring up everywhere, making the outcome all too predictable... Thanks for being here.
by ELIANA JONSHON OCT 14 2026 --------------------- Troy Jackson (Joseph Prezioso/Getty Images) As president of the Maine Senate, Troy Jackson, now running for U.S. Senate as an opponent of “greedy corporations,” cosponsored a bill allowing online lenders to charge exorbitantly high interest rates when offering small-dollar loans to Mainers with poor credit. His support for the measure may be explained by the fact that one of those “predatory” lenders, the Chicago-based OppFi, retained the lobbying firm that employed Jackson’s son to advocate in favor of it, the Free Beacon’s Collin Anderson reports. Jackson’s 2022 bill was framed as a measure to “Establish Consumer Protections Regarding Small Dollar Loans.” The Maine Credit Union criticized its “misleading” title, noting that the measure “would open the door for out-of-state rates and rent-a-bank schemes” by repealing portions of a 2021 law that forced online lenders outside of Maine to adhere to the state’s interest rate cap of 30 ...

HELLO IRA As a journalism analyst and science researcher, nothing surprises me anymore. I used to find satisfaction in anticipating events—unlike those "strategists" who swarm TV channels seeking their "five minutes of fame" in hopes of landing a consulting gig or a screenwriting deal. Have we simply grown accustomed to reacting only after the fact? I believe things are changing rapidly; time has a way of catching up with you. It wouldn't be at all surprising if, by tomorrow, we find it is too late to prevent something—or to avert a major disaster—that could have been avoided. Thank you for being here.
hace 21 min BY IRA STOLL OCT 13 2026 --------------- A graphic promoting the “Jewish Anti-Zionism” symposium. (Boston University) In court documents and public statements amid Harvard’s multi-billion-dollar fight with the Trump administration over antisemitism, the university has pointed to new faculty hires as evidence of what Harvard calls its “commitment to combating antisemitism and anti-Israeli bias.” “Harvard’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences has dedicated additional resources for the study of Hebrew and Judaic studies, including … an offer out for a chair in Jewish history and culture,” the university said. Harvard Divinity School “hired for the position of the Professor of Modern Jewish Studies in Residence.” Those two new professors are scheduled to appear next month at what is being billed as a “symposium and book launch” on “Jewish Anti-Zionism.” To judge by the book and the speakers invited, the event seems less aimed at critically assessing the ideas and more at promoting ...

HELLO JON: Pandora's Box seems to be getting smaller by the day; faced with a reality that surpasses even the most far-fetched, sensationalist fiction, I just saw a news report featuring a clip from a 2017 film in which a "Pope Leo" suffers from lung problems. Another report mentions that floodgates at hydroelectric dams in Brazil have been opened while torrential rains and deluges batter various regions; water levels are expected to exceed 14 or 16 meters, and in many riverside areas, the water is within fifty meters of homes—while in others, a meter of water has already flooded the interiors. We may well see deluges surpassing the record levels set by the Mississippi River in 1993 or 2013. As if that weren't enough, recent earthquakes—registering 7.6 or 8.3—have struck Panama, raising alarms for Los Angeles, San Francisco, or elsewhere regarding potential tsunamis with waves 30 to 60 meters high. Neither the Ghost of Canterbury nor the Salem Witches can compare to t...
B JON LEVINE OCT 13 2026 -------------- (TikTok) New York City first lady Rama Duwaji’s self-declared artistic “inspiration,” whose portrait she’s painted in tribute, is a radical Hamas propagandist who praised the terror group’s leaders as “great heroes,” openly celebrated the Oct. 7 attack against Israel, and has claimed that The Diary of Anne Frank is a Jewish forgery. Sliman Mansour, a Palestinian artist, was also pleased when a warlike reinterpretation of one of his paintings was used as a backdrop for an angry press conference by future Oct. 7 mastermind Yahya Sinwar, where he thanked Iran for funding Hamas. Mansour died in August after spending decades propping up violent “resistance” movements against the State of Israel. Before that, Duwaji had animated a portrait of the painter and indicated he “inspired the work that I do.” “Hi, I’m Rama, a Syrian illustrator and animator based in Brooklyn, and today I’m going to be animating a portrait of Sliman Mansour, who is a painte...

El-Sayed’s half-sister, Eman Abdelhadi, wrote of her mother’s ties to the Muslim Brotherhood in a 2012 tweet sent just after Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed Morsi was elected president of Egypt. “Had an amazing talk with my mom about her activism in the Muslim Brotherhood during the early 70s while she was in college,” wrote Abdelhadi, who is five years younger ...
BY ELIANA JONSHON OCT 13 2026 --------------------- Gustavo Gordillo (Stephanie Augello/Getty Images) The embattled co-chair of New York City’s Democratic Socialists of America chapter, Gustavo L. Gordillo, has made a name for himself railing against landlords and property ownership. He may want to take a look at his own parents, Peruvian émigrés whose economic fortunes were transformed by the United States and who now charge eye-popping rents for their Florida mansion. They’ve also heavily subsidized his life, the journalist Ben Ryan writes for the Free Beacon. Gordillo—a Yale-educated art-world staffer turned union electrician who has called to “take over apartments owned by landlords” and proclaimed that “inheritance is DEI for white people”—is the son of Gustavo E. and Elizabeth Gordillo, successful real estate investors who recently rented out their Florida mansion for $18,000 a month. For six years, their socialist son lived in their nearly $1 million Brooklyn home. The Gordillo...

HELLO VIC I’ll repeat myself here: setting aside the absurd headlines... let’s also agree that they serve no real purpose, right? Or perhaps they do serve to refresh our memories—reminding us that the very people who are underestimated or treated like fools—THE PEOPLE—are actually the ones always leading the way. And this isn't thanks to messiahs, sorcerers, soothsayers, geniuses, philanthropists, influencers, or recreational psychopaths, and so on. If I may add something: what you say is true. But in the interest of accuracy, shouldn't we also consider those who renounce their citizenship and return to their home countries—or settle elsewhere—while the ordinary worker keeps putting in the effort and even laying down their life for the nation, all while the others are living the dolce vita? /// ramon santos peñalva hace 49 min ///Nothing is learned from the Great Depression, the 1993 floods, 9/11, April 15th, etc., nor from the first Donald J.

But for Secretary of State Marco Rubio, these traditions are most valuable at times of great peril, like today. Standing on the Pnyx, the hilltop heart of Athens’s ancient democracy, America’s top diplomat warned Wednesday, “We are at an inflection point … not only in the history of my nation, but an inflection point in the whole of our civilization.” In his speech, he argued that the United States and Europe can, through this inheritance, “rediscover the virtues, the courage, and the strength to confront the dangers that we face in our time.” This legacy is becoming increasingly important for meeting today’s and tomorrow’s challenges.

¡¡¡¡¡Messi lo hizo!!!!!! Marcos GOLDSCHMIDT Marcos GOLDSCHMIDT • 9 oct 2026 El verdadero golazo en la despedida de Messi del que nadie habló. Mientras los medios se enfocaban en criticar la organización del evento, en el Monumental ocurrió un hecho histórico que pasó desapercibido: por primera vez en un espectáculo de esta magnitud, no se usó pirotecnia sonora. En lugar de explosiones que lastiman, el cielo se iluminó con drones. Llevo 9 años luchando por una ley nacional que prohíba o restrinja los estruendos, una práctica que somete a episodios de pánico y dolor a personas con autismo, a quienes tienen sensibilidad auditiva y a los animales. Lo que pasó en el estadio de River nos demostró una verdad irrefutable: se puede celebrar a lo grande sin hacer sufrir a nadie.

HELLO ELIANA Believe it or not, reality is stranger than fiction... Nothing surprises me—no matter how bizarre or unhinged—because any situation or perspective can shift its structure or reveal an unusual, contradictory, or even clinically disturbed nature; instances where the coincidental and the paranormal defy rational thought—surpassing mere anecdote—and take on fantastic, mind-bending forms that eclipse ordinary events, fables, or legends...

by ELIANA JONSHON OCT 9 2026 --------------------- Abdul El-Sayed speaks during Thursday night’s debate (Screenshot) Israel is an American ally. Iran calls us the Great Satan and has killed and kidnapped over 1,000 Americans. And yet, to Abdul El-Sayed, the two nations pose equal threats to the United States. El-Sayed made that argument during a Thursday evening debate against his Republican opponent, former congressman Mike Rogers. Asked whether he agreed with a supporter who had argued that Israel is a greater threat to the United States than Iran, El-Sayed initially refused to answer, calling it “a ridiculous hypothetical.” Then he said Israel and Iran both threaten the United States. “I think both of them have proven dangerous in their own way,” El-Sayed said. “One at risk of attacking us.
