People who won’t condemn a terror group or the horrific pogrom it carried out on Oct. 7, who never demand that Hamas release its hostages, who single out for condemnation a democratic society beset by profoundly illiberal forces all around it, are presuming to lecture everyone else about “complicity.”

It’s easy to see why Trump should consider Vance to be a strong contender. It’s quite a bit harder to see what the self-made Vance finds appealing in Trump, other than a means to a political end.

Marxy-Nazi progressives play word games to confuse, delude and condemn their opponents, but more importantly to camouflage their authoritarian programs, totalitarian personalities and genocidal tools of mass murder and starvation.

There needs to be a certain radical acceptance of the right to make bad choices.

The Jewish people have a slogan, “Never Again,” in reference to the Holocaust. With the incendiary language and threatening behavior rolling across many college campuses, we may be approaching “again.”
