Biden-appointed judge torches DOJ for defying subpoenas after prosecuting Trump advisor

 

'There’s a person in jail right now because you all brought a criminal lawsuit against him because he did not appear for a House subpoena,' Reyes said

A President Biden-appointed judge slammed the Justice Department’s apparent hypocrisy on Friday for allowing attorneys involved in the Biden family investigation to defy subpoenas — even though former Trump advisor Peter Navarro is sitting in prison for doing the same thing.

District Judge Ana Reyes ripped the DOJ at a status conference for not letting DOJ lawyers Mark Daly and Jack Morgan provide testimony as part of the House Judiciary Committee's investigation into the Biden family and the impeachment inquiry into the president. 

"There’s a person in jail right now because you all brought a criminal lawsuit against him because he did not appear for a House subpoena," Reyes said during a hearing on the Judiciary Committee’s lawsuit, according to Politico, seemingly referring to Navarro. 

Former defense secretary predicts Iran will strike at Israel

 

Former Defense Secretary Mark Esper on Friday said Iran is likely to retaliate against Israel for a recent missile strike that hit Tehran's consulate in Damascus, Syria.

Israel has not claimed responsibility for the strike, which killed senior Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commander Mohammad Reza Zahedi. Reuters cited a Lebanese security source as the first to identify Israel as the responsible party, to which an Israeli military spokesperson responded, "We do not comment on reports in the foreign media."

In an interview on CNN, Esper predicted Iran will take action against Israel, but on a limited scale to avoid wide-scale war in the Middle East.

"They are going to act," Esper said Friday. "They're going to feel the need, to uphold their dignity, to maintain credibility with their proxies, throughout the region, and to really meet the demands of hardliners, within the theocracy that wants to see something done."

"But on the other hand, they're not going to want to make this a wider war," he continued. "They don't want to escalate. They know that a major conflict with Israel, let alone Israel and the United States would be disastrous for Iran. So, I suspect that they will limit the attack to Israel, Israeli targets."3

When the US Killed 7 Children in a "tragic mistake"

 

On August 29, 2021, a US drone fired a missile at a truck in Kabul, killing an aid worker and 9 other civilians including seven children.

It took the Pentagon weeks to admit it was a "tragic mistake."

It is only one of many mistaken attacks on civilians that the US has done in…

WATCH as Students of Slobodka Yeshiva Use ‘Decoy’ Rosh Yeshiva to Fool Protesters

 

קטע גדול שמלמד על הבורות של המפגינים: כדי שמפגיני השמאל ילכו, בגבעת סלבודקה עשו תרגיל - טבח הישיבה התחפש להגר"ד לנדו וכולם שרו ורקדו סביבו, המפגינים חשבו שזה ראש הישיבה הגר"ד לנדו, ומיד אחרי התרגיל הם עזבו את המקום pic.twitter.com/MOoLq2Atc1

 On Friday morning, a group of leftist protesters accosted the Slobodka Yeshiva, demonstrating against the Charedi community. They were specifically seeking to harass the Rosh Yeshiva.

The protesters made noise with horns and chanted against Charedim. The demonstrators declared that they were waiting for Rabbi Dov Landau shlit’a, to exit the building so they could confront him in person.

The Rosh Yeshiva was scheduled to leave the building for an important conference of Roshei Yeshiva, but the protesters blocked the road, so that he would not be able to exit.

In order to help Rabbi Landau escape without being blocked, the bochurim came up with a clever strategy to resolve the situation. With the assistance of law enforcement, they orchestrated a plan, asking R’ Yossi Rosenfeld, the yeshiva‘s cook, he agreed to wear a hat and a long coat, dressing as the Rosh Yeshiva.

The students accompanied him with singing and the respect customary for a Rosh Yeshiva.

The protesters, believing it was Rav Landau, dispersed after the chef got into a car. Several minutes later, Rabbi Landau exited the building

Jill Biden Screams At her demented Husband privately to end the war in Gaza: 'Stop, stop it now'

                                        

First Lady Jill Biden has reportedly been privately urging President Biden to stop the war in Gaza, according to a conversation the president had with one of the attendees at a White House meeting with the Muslim community on Tuesday. 

A guest at Biden's meeting told the president that his wife disapproved of him attending the event over the Israel-Hamas war, according to The New York Times.

"Mr. Biden replied that he understood. The first lady, he said, had been urging him to ‘Stop it, stop it now,’ according to an attendee who heard his remarks," the outlet reported. 

The Times cited Salima Suswell, the founder of the Black Muslim Leadership Council, who witnessed the back and forth, and told the paper it was "striking" to hear that the first lady felt that way about the conflict. 

Biden hosted a small event at the White House with Muslim administration staffers and leaders of the Muslim community, who also joined the president for a dinner to break the fast during the holy Islamic month of Ramadan.

The first lady was asked about the state of Biden's re-election campaign during an appearance on "CBS Mornings" on Wednesday, and was specifically questioned about a recent Wall Street Journal survey that found the Democratic incumbent trailing former President Trump in six of seven 2024 swing states.

CBS host Tony Dokoupil began asking the first lady about the polling results before she cut him off.

"No, he's not losing in all the battleground states. He's coming up," she said before the host could finish asking the question.

"He's even or doing better," she added. "You know what, once people start to focus in, and they see their two choices, it's obvious that Joe will win this election."

The first lady was also asked if she was at all worried about President Biden's re-election efforts, responding "no, no, no. I feel that Joe will be re-elected.

The referenced Wall Street Journal poll, released Tuesday, found that Trump is currently leading Biden in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada and North Carolina — states that will play a crucial role in securing a win on the November ballot. The results found that Biden was tied with Trump in Wisconsin, but did not secure any leads in the battleground states survey.

Fox News Digital has reached out to the White House for comment.

Hamas celebrating Biden's apparent shift in war, Israeli official warns: 'Stand against evil'

 

Israeli Economy and Industry Minister Nir Barkat accused President Biden on Thursday of emboldening Hamas after he warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the U.S. policy in Gaza could change if the Israeli military doesn’t do more to protect civilians in the region.

In an appearance on "Kudlow," Barkat urged Biden to re-establish his commitment to Israel, emphasizing the importance of the United States' unwavering support as they fight to eradicate the "Nazis" behind the Oct. 7 terror attack. 

His comment came moments after Biden wrapped up a phone call with the Israeli leader, during which the U.S. president threatened a change in his policy toward the war if Israel doesn't do more to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

"After things like this, you know what happens with Hamas?" Barkat asked, referring to Biden's warning to Netanyahu. "They’re happy. They toughen their negotiation stance. They give candy to everyone."

WHITEHOUSE TURNS ON ISRAEL: Gives Them “Hours And Days To Make Changes

 

At a Wednesday news briefing, White House national security communications adviser John Kirby faced questions from reporters about whether President Joe Biden is considering withholding aid to Israel.

ABC News correspondent Mary Bruce queried Kirby about potential aid withholding if changes aren’t made by Israel. Kirby also mentioned that the U.S. anticipates seeing these changes from Israel in the “coming hours and days.”

BRUCE: The president seems to have said to the prime minister today, make these concrete changes or else. It’s the or else that I want to make clear here. Is the president threatening to withhold aid to Israel if they do not make these changes?

KIRBY: The president made it clear that our policies with respect to Gaza, will be dependent upon our assessment of how well the Israelis, make changes and implement changes, to make the situation in Gaza better for the Palestinian people.

BRUCE: And how much time are you giving them to make these changes to implement these concrete steps?

KIRBY: We we would hope to see some announcements of changes here in coming hours and days. And I’ll leave it at that.

Meanwhile, Secretary of State Blinken had the following to say:

“If we don’t see the changes [from Israel] that we need to see [in Gaza], there’ll be changes in our own policy.”
