Few groups have experienced more systematic oppression than the Jewish people, and you would think that after a few thousand years of being singled out for pogroms, the current generation would have learned that you can't appease the haters.&nbsp;]]>Fri, 06 Nov 2026 19:20:23 -0500<![CDATA[David Strom]]>https://hotair.com/david-strom/2026/11/06/suicidal-empathy-jewish-style-n3820754<![CDATA[Ilhan Omar has plenty to celebrate. Another election victory and Democrats back in control of Congress. She’s dancing onstage, taking shots at President Trump, and celebrating her party’s return to power. Meanwhile, there’s that pesky federal investigation hanging over her head. But Omar doesn’t seem too worried. Maybe she’s counting on her fellow Democrats to make life a whole lot easier for her.]]>Fri, 06 Nov 2026 19:00:00 -0500<![CDATA[Beege Welborn]]>https://hotair.com/headlines/2026/11/06/ilhan-omar-untouchable-with-democrats-back-in-power-n3820715<![CDATA[Someone posted an excerpt of this on X today and it's apparently real. An individual in New York has filed a $50 million lawsuit against the NY Times over its refusal to use the word "genocide" when talking about Israel's war against Gaza.

Clinton &amp; Obama already set precedent. They weren't done at all in their last 2 years. Victor Davis Hanson explains: Clinton fell to 37% approval but left office at about 66%. In between, he was impeached but not convicted and bombed Serbia for 78 days without Congress. Obama's approval fell to 38% and still left office near 60%. He bombed Libya in 2011 without Congress, ran hundreds of drone strikes in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia, and started bombing ISIS in Iraq and Syria in 2014 without a new vote. He said "I've got a pen and I've got a phone," and skipped the Senate on the Iran deal and Paris. Low approval and a hostile Congress didn't finish them. For both, it was the best thing that ever happened to them in some ways.— Cecile Shaw (@CecileShaw) November 4, 2026]]>Fri, 06 Nov 2026 17:00:00 -0500<![CDATA[Beege Welborn]]>https://hotair.com/headlines/2026/11/06/vdh-what-happens-if-trump-loses-both-houses-n3820687<![CDATA[One of the great things about being Bernie Sanders is that you don't have to make any sense.&nbsp;]]>Fri, 06 Nov 2026 16:40:41 -0500<![CDATA[David Strom]]>https://hotair.com/david-strom/2026/11/06/it-must-be-nice-to-be-bernie-sanders-n3820744<![CDATA[&nbsp; &nbsp; California Post editor Joe Pollak just sent out a tweet: “It's appalling that the victory of one party or another means that a private citizen and his businesses, none of which have been accused of breaking the law, would suddenly be targeted by the government.

Often called the “Stonehenge of the East” or the “Wheel of Ghosts,” the nearly 5,000-year-old maze-like structure spans a diameter of 492 feet.
