Saturday Stuff

On a cold Saturday that started with some snow, here are some things going on:

From National Review, Speaker Johnson (R-LA) should let the House vote on a foreign aid package passed by the Senate.

From Townhall, according to an intelligence report, Russia wanted former First Lady/Senator (D-NY)/Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to win the 2016 election.

From The Washington Free Beacon, good riddance to former Senator (D-MA)/Secretary of State and current climate czar John Kerry.

From the Washington Examiner, congresscritter Andy Kim (D-NJ) is doing better in the polls than state First Lady Tammy Murphy (D-NJ) in his senatorial campaign.  (As far as I know, Kim is not the same as this guy.)

From American Thinker, according to right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson, Americans are under the control of a censorship regime.

From NewsBusters, NBC hypes the idea that actors can do better by being "gender-fluid".  (If so, I can think of a setting where "gender-fluidity" would be useful.)

From TCW Defending Freedom, why the U.K.'s roads are very often flooded, which is not because of too much rain.

From Snouts in the Trough, what to make of white blood clots.

From Allah's Willing Executioners, a stone cross in Saint-Pantaly-d'Excideuil, France is defaced with the word "Islam" and a crescent moon.  (If you read French, read the story at Le Figaro and FDeSouche.)

From Gatestone Institute, if you want to stop the Iranian regime, go after the IRGS's assets.

From The Stream, mass baptisms are held in a fountain on the campus of Florida State University.

From The American Conservative, lies about the war in Ukraine, and parallels to Vietnam.

From The Western Journal, former President Trump slams the civil fraud judgment against him.

From BizPac Review, a congressional advisory panel recommends Secret Service protections for presidential candidate and former Governor (R-SC) Nikki Haley, to which fellow candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. (I), denied such protection, responds.

From The Daily Wire, Trump attorney Alina Habba slams the civil fraud judgment against him.

From Reuters, Russian authorities arrest at least 212 people at rallies for the recently deceased dissident Alexei Navalny.  (What is this "right to peaceable assembly" you speak of?  The story comes via The Daily Wire.)

From the Daily Caller, residents of East Palestine, Ohio slam President Biden over his long-overdue visit, and claim that their tap water is still undrinkable.

From Breitbart, drugs cartels use landmines in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas.

From Newsmax, video released by Israeli officials allegedly shows an UNRWA employee loading the body of an Israeli man who had been shot into the back of an SUV.

And from the New York Post, a book is returned to a library in Newark, Ohio after 93 years.
