The Islamic Republic of Iran is the world’s leading state-sponsor of terrorism. Its malignant influence in the Middle East is why the region is so volatile. But Iran’s influence isn’t limited to just the Middle East. Everywhere Tehran extends its tentacles, bad things are bound to happen.
 
We know Iran is funding and promoting the radical pro-Hamas, anti-Israel demonstrations here in America. We know Iran is plotting to assassinate former President Donald Trump and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. We also know that if Iran can’t kill Trump, the ayatollah wants to keep him out of the White House.
 
According to the Wall Street Journal, our intelligence community has “observed Tehran working to influence the presidential election” by undermining support for Donald Trump.
 
Why would Iran do that? Well, the geniuses in the intelligence community said it is “probably because Iranian leaders want to avoid an outcome they perceive would increase tensions with the United States.”
 
In other words, the ayatollah knows that another Trump administration would be bad news for Iran’s terrorist schemes, while a Harris administration would go easy on Iran and get tough with Israel.
 
For years, the left pushed the hoax that Trump and Russia were working together. The intelligence community continues to insist that Russia favors Trump in the election.
 
But with the clear evidence that Iran is trying to hurt Trump’s chances, the best we get is that Iran wants to “avoid increased tensions.” They can’t possibly say that Iran wants to continue the cozy relationship it has enjoyed with the Biden/Harris team.
 
 
 
Do Israeli Children Matter?
 
Kamala Harris regularly excoriates Israel and the Israeli Defense Forces every time civilians are killed in Gaza.
 
In December, Harris said, “Too many innocent Palestinians have been killed. Frankly, the scale of civilian suffering and the images and videos coming from Gaza are devastating,” as if the October 7th massacre of innocent Israelis by Hamas terrorists never happened.
 
Last week, immediately after meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Harris declared:
 
“What has happened in Gaza over the past nine months is devastating. The images of dead children and desperate hungry people fleeing for safety, sometimes displaced for the second, third, or fourth time. We cannot look away in the face of these tragedies. We cannot allow ourselves to become numb to the suffering. And I will not be silent.”
 
But Harris never mentions the fact that Israel is not responsible for the deaths and suffering in Gaza. Hamas is.
 
Hamas controls Gaza, and it is using the Palestinian population as human shields.
 
Every day, Hamas terrorists are committing war crimes by hiding rocket launchers and other weapons in civilian areas. Hamas does that because they know Western media and leaders will blame Israel when Palestinian civilians are inevitably killed in any Israeli retaliation.
 
But where was Kamala Harris when 12 Israeli children were killed by an Iranian-made rocket, fired by Hezbollah, into an area with no potential military targets?
 
She has not said one word in her own voice condemning that atrocity. She is silent when Israeli children are killed. Just more evidence of the left’s high tolerance for dead Israelis.
 
Yet Harris was eager to excoriate Netanyahu over “dead children” in Gaza after they met. She really wanted to get that on the record to appease the radical anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, pro-Hamas wing of her party.
 
 
 
Erasing History
 
Soviet dictators were notorious for “airbrushing” their political enemies out of photos and, thereby, erasing history. The neo-Marxists who control Big Tech are following Stalin’s example.
 
Many people have noticed that when they used Google’s search engine to look up information about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, they got a lot of links to Reagan’s assassination attempt, Gerald Ford’s assassination attempt, and Harry Truman’s assassination attempt, but nothing about Donald Trump.
 
Type in “President Donald,” and Google gives you “President Donald Duck.”
 
Facebook blocked the iconic image of Trump with blood on his face and the American flag behind him, raising his fist in defiance. But doctored photos showing Trump and his Secret Service agents smiling were everywhere.
 
The artificial intelligence chatbots, like ChatGPT and Meta AI, are no better. ChatGPT initially said that there is “no verified information or evidence” of an assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
 
When Meta AI was asked about the Trump assassination attempt, it said, “I can’t assist with that. I don’t always have the most up-to-date information.” But it had a lot of information on Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign.
 
For the record, the attempt on Trump’s life occurred on July 13th — a week before Biden dropped out of the presidential race and Harris launched her campaign.
 
I’ve seen some commentators laughing about all of this, dismissing it as “glitches” in new technology. These are not glitches. They only go in one direction — they always smash us and advance the left’s agenda.
 
It’s no coincidence that the employees of Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook, and Apple were top donors to Joe Biden’s campaign.
 
The left-wing ideologues who dominate Big Tech are rewriting American history right before our eyes.  They’ve been doing this for decades, just more subtly.  
 
The Reagan years were a time of great economic growth. Reagan inherited what Joe Biden lies about when he says he inherited a bad economy. Reagan really did inherit Jimmy Carter’s economic disaster. And he turned it around. He rebuilt the American military and brought down the Soviet Union.
 
But today, our children are taught that Ronald Reagan presided over a decade of greed, while life was miserable for working-class Americans. As a result, most children don’t know anything about Reagan. He’s just another dead white man, like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln, who didn’t do anything good because they were evil.
 
 
 
Senators vs. Secret Service
 
Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe testified before the Senate Homeland Security Committee and the Judiciary Committee yesterday about the investigation into the catastrophic security failures that nearly resulted in the assassination of Donald Trump.
 
There were few, if any, significant revelations. When asked what jumped out at him during the hearing, Sen. Ron Johnson said, “I would say what little we learned.”
 
Johnson added that he was “very disappointed” that senators can’t get answers to basic questions. He said he has learned more from local law enforcement than from the FBI or the Secret Service.
 
Kudos to Sen. Josh Hawley for blasting Acting Director Rowe for the fact that no one has been relieved of duty, suspended, or fired yet.
