I spent most of yesterday flying back from Arizona, arriving at the airport just before 10 p.m. Now that I've caught up with a few chores on the first day of October, here are some things going on:
From National Review, congresscritter Jamall Bowman (D-NY) faces expulsion after pulling a fire alarm in a House office building. (I do not use the term "allegedly" because, as far as I can tell, there is no dispute that Bowman pulled the alarm. The question is whether he realized what he was doing. But I would also ask, is falsely pulling a fire alarm the equivalent of falsely yelling "fire!" in a crowded theater?)
From The Washington Free Beacon, a review of a book about "how the radical left conquered everything".
From American Thinker, a review of a book claiming that black people built Stonehenge.
From NewsBusters, MSNBC host Alicia Menendez declines to cover her father Senator Bob Menendez's (D-NJ) scandal. (In my unhumble opinion, I think she's right. She seems to be aware of the concept known as "conflict of interest".)
From TCW Defending Freedom, some ideas for U.K. Chancellor Jeremy Hunt, which come from Switzerland. (The U.K. Chancellor is the head of the governmental department called the Exchequer, and is thus not by any means the equivalent of the German or Austrian chancellors.)
From EuroNews, supporters of the Polish opposition and its leader Donald Tusk rally in Warsaw.
From The North Africa Post, the Africa Development Bank Group's fifth Africa Resilience Forum will be held on October 3rd through 5th in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire.
From Turkish Minute, a bomb explodes near the Turkish parliament building in Ankara, inflicting "minor injuries" on two police officers. (I saw this report at other sites, but decided to find a Turkish source.)
From Outlook, a leader of the Pakistani terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba is gunned down by a group of "unknown men".
From Gatestone Institute, the persecution of Christians in August 2023.
From The Stream, lessons about persuasion from an unlikely encounter.
From the New York Post, a retired NYPD detective running as a Republican raises money in his bid to unseat indicted congresscritter George Santos (R-NY).
And from SFGate, a woman sues Disney claiming that a ride gave her a "wedgie" that resulted in permanent injuries.
