  Red State: Those questions about New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani might have resulted in a bigger problem for the Democratic Party. DNC Chair Ken Martin was asked about Mamdani's refusal to condemn the usage of the term "globalize the intifada." The term is viewed as a call for violence against Jews/Israel, as well as violence around the world. It's something we've seen on signs at radical protests. Mamdani was given three chances by Kristen Welker to condemn the phrase on "Meet the Press," and he deflected each time.

Nawaz said some of Martin's Jewish colleagues think this is "very disturbing" and might be dangerous. Did he agree with that? Listen as Martin also can...

 Mark Levine:  posts Conversation Mark R. Levin @marklevinshow Where’s Garland and the DOJ?  A synagogue was targeted by the Marxist-Islamist mob, they blocked the parishioners from going to Temple, they physically attacked them, and desecrated the building. And most of the media ignore it. Instead, they relentlessly propagandize about Trump and MAGA being a threat to democracy.

John Kass: he hard left is always so angry, and uses emotion to great effect in our modern politics. And shame — through social and mainstream media voices — is the left’s whip, keeping Americans in line. Most Americans understand the penalty for thought crimes on issues ranging from traditional marriage to affirmative action to American citizenship. Say the wrong thing, write the wrong thing, even think the wrong thing, or tweet the wrong thing — in referencing positions that were mainstream only a few years ago — and you’ll be publicly shamed in media. And you’ll be shunned as a homophobe or a racist or ultra-nationalist and mocked and probably lose your job. The left will see to that. And most Americans understand this. But if you’re of the left, and happen to be a Democratic Party politician, you can get away with making excuses for notorious anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan. And when those excuses are made, the left is largely silent. Farrakhan’...

AP /Houston Chronicle: Hundreds of angry Islamic worshippers threw stones and scuffled with police today in an eruption of outrage over contentious Israeli renovation work at a disputed Old City holy site. About 200 police streamed on to the hilltop compound known to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary and to Jews as the Temple Mount, to try to quell the violence, police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said. Witnesses said police hurled stun grenades. Several dozen protesters barricaded themselves inside the Al-Aqsa mosque at the compound, which is Islam's third-holiest site. The protesters are angry about Israeli repair work on an earthen ramp leading to the hilltop compound, which they fear will damage the mosque. Police said several protesters and several officers were injured in the faceoff, but gave no further details. The clashes erupted at the end of Friday prayers at the site. Police had braced for possible riots during the prayers, which often have been a flashpoint for clashes. Isra...
