He Can’t Be THAT Stupid: Chuck Schumer Just Doomed Defense Bill with Feel Good Progressive Censorship Pork

The Daily CallerNovember 16, 20240

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is reportedly working to incorporate the Antisemitism Awareness Act into the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The bill aims to enhance protections for Jewish students amid rising antisemitic incidents but has drawn criticism for potential free speech implications. Critics, such as the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, argue the act risks suppressing constitutionally protected speech, particularly on topics like the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Supporters, including the Anti-Defamation League, argue the act is essential to combating antisemitism and clarifying discriminatory actions under civil rights laws. The bill uses the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of antisemitism,

The Daily CallerMay 10, 20240

There’s a lot of chatter right now about Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., even though he won’t even be on many states ballots this fall, let alone actually scoring one single electoral vote in November’s election.

True patriots should know that despite expensive advertising and lofty promises, his ideas are downright dangerous, and anyone who identifies as a conservative, or simply as somebody who loves their country, best steer clear.

JD FOSTER: Donald Trump Should Make NATO A Deal It Can’t Refuse J.D. Foster on January 28, 2024 The U.S. Navy continues to strike the Houthis while seeking to keep the Red Sea open for commerce. Nineteen other countries reportedly are part of the coalition, but only the U.K. has provided any firepower in the form of a single destroyer.
