This is the Dayenu for President Trump, based on the simple realization that there has never been a president as pro-Israel as Trump, and it is almost unthinkable that there will ever be another.
Let us count the ways, individual acts for which alone we would sing Dayenu, “it would have been enough:” Continue reading “The Trump “Dayenu””
The further we get from her historic electoral defeat at the hands of President Trump, the more unhinged Hillary Clinton becomes.
Case it point: it appears the former secretary of state has moved on from endlessly blaming everybody but herself and her campaign staff for the many miscalculations made along the way (many have joked that Clinton probably couldn’t point out Wisconsin on a map), to actively soliciting enemies of the US to interfere on behalf of the Democrats in 2020.

NEW LEGISLATION PROPOSED by Rep. Betty McCollum, a Minnesota Democrat, would ban Israel from using any of the billions of dollars in military assistance it receives from the United States every year to pay for the detention, interrogation, or torture of Palestinian children living under Israeli military occupation in the West Bank.
Israel’s military typically arrests and prosecutes 500 to 700 Palestinian children between the ages of 12 and 17 each year, subjecting them to coercive interrogation, physical violence, and trials in military courts that lack basic guarantees of due process.

Maine could soon prohibit parents from citing religious or personal beliefs to avoid vaccinating their children, making the U.S. state one of a half dozen cracking down during the nations’ largest measles outbreak in 25 years.
State legislatures in New York, New Jersey, Oregon, Vermont, Minnesota and Iowa, are looking at similar bills, that would only allow exemptions from vaccinations for medical reasons as determined by the child’s doctor.

Mark Boyle hasn’t switched on a light for three years. Nor has he boiled a kettle, bunged on a wash, turned on the oven, or the radio, vacuumed, cheered on his favourite football team on the TV, listened to any recorded music, sent an email, made a phone call or updated his social media.
Not because he’s lazy, but because, in December 2016, he pledged to live technology-free. On his banned list was anything that requires power or ‘an ongoing energy input’. Continue reading “Now THAT’S switching off! He’s a modern-day Robinson Crusoe who lives without power”
