Washington Free Beacon: Former CNN Contributor: Mainstream News Outlets Are ‘Zionist Organizations’

Graham Piro — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 13:45:05 -0400

Marc Lamont Hill, a Temple University professor and former CNN commentator, said that mainstream news outlets are "Zionist organizations" that create "Zionist content" during an appearance at a progressive conference.

He made the remarks at the annual Netroots Nation summit during a panel on "embedding Palestinian rights in the 2020 agenda," according to a report from Jewish Insider.

"You have to make choices about where you want to work. And if you work for a Zionist organization, you’re going to get Zionist content," Hill said during the panel. "And no matter how vigorous you are in the newsroom, there are going to be two, three, four, 17, or maybe one powerful person — not going to suggest a conspiracy — all news outlets have a point of a view."

He specifically named Fox, ABC, and NBC as examples of news organizations.

Shirts calling for consumers to "resist" racism, sexism, Zionism, homophobia, and anti-Semitism among other major social issues were also sold at the event.

Hill has a history of making offensive remarks about Israel. CNN fired him last year after he delivered a speech that trafficked in anti-Semitic tropes in front of the United Nations. Hill used the phrase, "a free Palestine from the river to the sea," which implies the end of Israel's existence as a state. The speech drew criticism from the Anti-Defamation League. He also endorsed violent resistance on the parts of Palestinians.

Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) defended Hill after he was fired, tweeting that "Calling out the oppressive policies in Israel, advocating for Palestinians to be respected, and for Israelis and Palestinians alike to have peace and freedom is not antisemitic."

Hill also posed for a photo with anti-Semitic Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan in 2016. Afterwards, Hill said he didn't approve of the photo being used for promotional purposes, but added he didn't regret meeting Farrakhan.

Washington Free Beacon: Biden Spent $250,000 on Private Jet Travel in Second Quarter

Joe Schoffstall — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 13:30:45 -0400

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, who took swipes at Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton over their private jet usage during the 2007 primaries, spent more than $250,000 on such travel during the second quarter this year, Federal Election Commission filings show.

The former vice president's campaign committee, Biden for President, disbursed four payments to Advanced Aviation, an Arlington, Va.-based charter jet company. The campaign spent a total of $256,798 on travel with the company in May alone, its first filings show.

Biden previously took swipes at his Democratic opponents over their usage of private jets.

"I's a seven hour ride from Chicago, I apologize—and I don't have a plane," Biden said as he arrived late to a 2007 primary forum in Iowa as Obama and Clinton were both utilizing charter flights.

Biden's campaign did not respond to an inquiry on his private jet travel expenses during the second quarter by press time.

Advanced Aviation boasts of managing "complex travel and security logistics" and high-profile travel in eight types of aircraft, ranging from helicopters to airliners, for corporations, media organizations, security firms, music groups, athletic teams, diplomats, elected officials, and political campaigns.

Biden has earned millions since departing the White House and has demanded private jets as part of his speaking gig arrangements.

Washington Free Beacon: Biden Refuses to Apologize to Protesters for Deportations

Philip Caldwell — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 13:30:11 -0400

At a campaign event in New Hampshire Friday, Democratic candidate Joe Biden was confronted by protesters who demanded he apologize for deportations of illegal immigrants during the Obama administration. Biden stood firm in refusing to disavow deportations as a tool of immigration enforcement.

A video published by America Rising captured the tense encounter.

The former vice-president and leading candidate for the Democratic nomination was approached by a group of protesters, as well as a man speaking Spanish accompanied by a translator. The man told Biden that his brother had been detained and deported, and that he himself had faced deportation proceedings.

"I want you to apologize for the three million immigrants that were deported and separated from their families under the Obama years," the man told Biden through his translator. "I want to know if you will commit to stopping all deportations and detentions if you are elected president."

Biden promptly responded "no", refusing to commit to halting deportations or to apologize for those that took place during the Obama administration.

The immigration protesters quickly voiced their disapproval, chanting "three million deportations under the Obama administration" and "apologize now."

"Do you want me to answer your question?" Biden asked one of the members of the group. "No you don’t, really."

Biden then explained that he was opposed to deportations for misdemeanors and would not separate families before a hearing was held on whether asylum was warranted, but dismissed calls to denounce all deportations.

"I will not apologize for deportations of people who have committed a felony," Biden said. "I will apologize for deportations if in fact you were deported because in fact you were engaged in a misdemeanor and/or your family was separated."

Biden's attitudes on immigration have come under scrutiny by progressives in the Democratic party this election cycle. As a senator in 2006, Biden praised a bill for denying amnesty to illegal immigrants and called for punishing businesses that hire them.

Since becoming vice-president in 2009 and entering the 2020 presidential race though, Biden has shifted to the left on immigration. At the first Democratic debate in June, Biden was among the candidates who raised their hands to signal their support for decriminalizing border crossings.

Washington Free Beacon: Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey Gives Max Donation to Tulsi Gabbard

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey gave Rep. Tulsi Gabbard's (D., Hawaii) campaign the maximum donation last month.

Dorsey donated $5,600 to Gabbard's campaign on June 27, the day after she appeared in the first Democratic debate. Dorsey has also given money to Andrew Yang.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey gave Tulsi Gabbard's 2020 campaign the full $5,600 primary/general max donation on 6/27/2019, the day after her debate performance

— David Wright (@DavidWright_CNN) July 16, 2019

Gabbard has struggled to break through in the crowded Democratic primary field, consistently polling around 1 to 2 percent.

Gabbard has faced pushback for her foreign policy views, including from the left. Her defense of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad prompted a Washington Post op-ed calling her the dictator's "mouthpiece in Washington."

Left-wing publications such as the Nation and Jacobin have criticized Gabbard. The Daily Kos hit Gabbard for meeting with Assad and developing ties with Hindu nationalists in a piece which endorsed her Democratic primary opponent in her congressional race.

Gabbard has also clashed with the media.

In May, she pounced on the Daily Beast in a fundraising email after the publication highlighted pro-Russia donors supporting her campaign.

"This hit piece is an example of the kind of McCarthyist witch hunt made possible by the mainstream media’s role in fomenting the new Cold War with Russia. It stirs up hysteria that makes it easier to push our country into war," the email read.

In February, Gabbard's campaign criticized "media giants ruled by corporate interests" in a fundraising email.

"Today, our freedoms and democracy are being threatened by media giants ruled by corporate interests who are in the pocket of the establishment war machine," the email warned.

The National Interest: Report: Human Error Was the Cause of 2017 A-10C Collision

Dario Leone — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 12:57:00 -0400

Dario Leone

Technology, Americas

We've got the details.

The service has already rewinged 173 A-10s (including one aircraft that has since crashed), but 109 Warthogs (one-third of the fleet) are still flying with their original wings and are in desperate need of wing set replacements or the USAF will be forced to start grounding them.

The U.S. Air Force (USAF) has recently determined the cause behind the collision of two A-10C Thunderbolt IIs over Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) in September 2017.

According to Air Combat Command Accident Investigation Board in fact on Sept 6, 2017, two A-10C attack aircraft collided over NTTR because their aircrews failed to adhere to established altitude and deconfliction procedures.

The pilots were conducting a night, close air support training mission as part of the Weapons Instructor Course qualification for pilot one with pilot two as the instructor of record when the incident occurred. Pilot one climbed above the assigned altitude block during a series of commands and did not hear the audible notification signaling the altitude climb and therefore did not radio-in to deconflict established altitude blocks. This caused pilot one’s aircraft to enter the altitude space designated for pilot two. Pilot two did not have line of sight on pilot one when the collision occurred. The midair collision rendered both aircraft uncontrollable and both pilots ejected.

Washington Free Beacon: Rep. Cheney Slams Socialist Democrats’ Policies

Zach Faria — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 12:45:53 -0400

Representative Liz Cheney (R., Wyo.) hit socialist Democrats over their policy proposals during the House Republican Leadership Press Conference.

"Our opposition to our socialist colleagues has absolutely nothing to do with their gender, with their religion, or with their race. It has to do with the content of their policies," Cheney said, "They are wrong when they attempt to impose the fraud of socialism on the American people. They are wrong when they pursue policies that would steal power from the American people and give that power to the government."

Cheney said they were wrong on a list of policies, including partial-birth and late term abortion, opposition to the Born Alive Act, abolishing ICE and DHS and supporting open borders, abolishing private health insurance, and packing the Supreme Court. Cheney also hit Democrats over a vote on a $15 federal minimum wage expected to take place on Tuesday. The Congressional Budget Office estimated that the increased minimum wage would cost 1.3 million people their jobs, with a potential maximum of 3.7 million people being thrown out of work. "That is not compassion," Cheney said, "That is callousness born of ignorance."

The press conference comes in the midst of controversy over four progressive Democratic lawmakers. Called "The Squad" by many in the media, they are Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (Mich.), Ayanna Pressley (Mass.), and Rashida Tlaib (Minn.). Cheney hit Pressley specifically, saying it was wrong for her to say "that any individual seat at the table is only valuable, only legitimate, if that person espouses some pre-approved set of beliefs," referencing Pressley's comments to Netroots Nation where she said, "we don’t need any more brown faces that don’t want to be a brown voice."

Cheney also hit Democrats for not condemning anti-semitism, a reference to Democrats passing a generalized anti-hate resolution in response to Omar accusing pro-Israel advocates of dual loyalty by pushing "allegiance to a foreign country."

The National Interest: Hero: Former F/A-18 Hornet Pilot Tammie Jo Shults Safely Lands a Southwest 737 with Its Engine Blown Up

Dario Leone — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 12:06:00 -0400

Dario Leone

Security, Americas

An American legend.

“She has nerves of steel,” one passenger, Alfred Tumlinson, told the Associated Press.

Tammie Jo Shults’s voice was calm yet focused as her Boeing 737-700 descended with 149 people on board.

“Southwest 1380, we’re single engine,” Shults, a former fighter pilot with the U.S. Navy, said. “We have part of the aircraft missing so we’re going to need to slow down a bit.” She asked for medical personnel to meet her aircraft on the runway. “We’ve got injured passengers.”

Asked if the plane was on fire, she said: “No, it’s not on fire, but part of it’s missing,” Shults said, pausing for a moment. “They said there’s a hole, and uh, someone went out.”

On Apr. 18, 2018, the engine on Shults’s plane had exploded spraying shrapnel into the aircraft, causing a window to be blown out and leaving one woman dead and seven other people injured. According MSN, passengers pulled the woman who later died back into the plane as she was being sucked out. Others on board the Dallas-bound flight braced for impact as oxygen masks muffled their screams.

Shults was able to save the lives of 148 people aboard her Boeing 737 by successfully completing an emergency landing the midst of the chaos at the Philadelphia International Airport.

Lawfare - Hard National Security Choices: Today’s Headlines and Commentary

Vishnu Kannan — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 11:47:30 -0400

In response to planned U.S.-South Korea joint military exercises, the North Korean government said it is “gradually losing our justifications to follow through on the commitments we made with the U.S.,” which include North Korea’s voluntary suspension of nuclear and missile tests, the Washington Post reports.

Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif said that “the room for negotiation is wide open," if the Trump administration withdraws the sanctions it has imposed on the Iranian economy since 2017, NBC writes.

Acting Secretary of Defense Mark Esper stepped down, returning to his position as secretary of the army in order to then be nominated by President Trump for Secretary of Defense, the Associated Press reports. Secretary of the Navy Richard V. Spencer assumed the role of acting secretary of defense pending Esper’s confirmation by the Senate and will return to his previous role should Esper be confirmed. A livestream of the hearing is available here.

Boris Johnson, current frontrunner in the contest for U.K. prime minister, rejected proposals for retaining the “backstop” between the U.K. and Ireland, a regulatory and administrative arrangement to prevent security checks and controls at the border between the two countries; Johnson’s comments raised fears that the U.K. will leave the European Union without a deal, according to the Associated Press.

Journalists in Pakistan staged nationwide demonstrations to protest censorship by the country’s security services. The protesters also argue that the security services have slashed their advertising budgets in order to deprive news outlets of vital revenue, thereby pressuring them into mass layoffs and months-long delays in wages, the Associated Press reports.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin warned about the possibility that Facebook’s cryptocurrency could be used for illicit purposes and said the company must establish proper safeguards against such abuse, Reuters writes. The Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs is scheduled to hold a hearing today with Facebook’s head of Libra to examine the project; in his prepared remarks David Marcus said the cryptocurrency project will not proceed without full governmental approval and regulation, the Post says.

A hack of Bulgaria’s National Revenue Agency compromised the personal and financial data of millions of Bulgarians, Reuters informs. The attack occurred at the end of June and surfaced after an alleged Russian hacker contacted local media offering access to the data.

ICYMI: Yesterday on Lawfare

Andrei Gribakov examined the constitutional challenges to California’s quest to apply for adequacy under the General Data Protection Regulation.

Vishnu Kannan shared an announcement from the Justice and Homeland Security Departments that they were amending their regulations to prevent Central Americans travelling through Mexico from applying for asylum.

Christina Arabia argued that U.S. arms sales and military assistance to foreign countries are becoming increasingly secretive.

Washington Free Beacon: Sanders: I Would ‘Probably Not’ Move U.S. Embassy Back to Tel Aviv

Graham Piro — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 11:35:35 -0400

Presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders (D., Vt.) said he would "probably not" move the US embassy in Israel back to Tel Aviv. Last year, the Trump administration made the decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and move the American embassy in the country there.

"Would you move the embassy from Jerusalem back to Tel Aviv?" the moderator asked Sanders.

"Probably not. It would be part of a broader discussion of how we bring peace to the region," Sanders said. "And that means, in the same sense, bringing Israel and the Palestinians together."

"Israel 100 percent must have the right to exist in peace and security and not be subjected to terrorist attacks," he continued. "Palestinian people also have the right to live in peace and security."

He stressed the need to address the situation aggressively and diplomatically.

Several of Sanders's fellow Democratic candidates have also said they would not move the embassy from Jerusalem, according to Axios. Former Vice President and current frontrunner Joe Biden said he would not move the embassy back to Tel Aviv, but would re-open the consulate in east Jerusalem to engage the Palestinians in talks.

Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand (D., N.Y.), Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.), and Cory Booker (D., N.J.) all concurred with Biden, although Gillibrand and Booker both expressed criticisms of the move. Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke also expressed that they would not reverse Trump's decision.

Washington Free Beacon: Sanders: Medicare for All Will Cost $40 Trillion Over 10 Years

Zach Faria — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 11:30:28 -0400

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) said on Tuesday that he estimates his Medicare for All plan would cost up to $40 trillion over 10 years.

"Somewhere between $30 and $40 trillion over a 10 year period," Sanders said, contrasting his plan with former vice president Joe Biden, "What the most serious economists tell us, that if we do nothing to fundamentally change the healthcare system, which is what Joe was talking about, keeping it as it is, we'll be spending something like $50 trillion over a 10 year period."

Sanders has previously said he would raise taxes, including for the middle class, that people would be happy to pay more taxes under his healthcare plan, and that "there will be pain" in a transition to a single-payer system.

Biden released his healthcare plan on Monday, saying in a video announcement, "Starting over makes no sense to me at all. I knew the Republicans would do everything in their power to repeal Obamacare. They still are. But I'm surprised that so many Democrats are running on getting rid of it."

Biden included Sanders and Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) raising their hands in support of abolishing private health insurance during the Democratic debate in the video.

"I don't think there's a study out there, Bob, that does not suggest that Medicare for All is far less expensive than continuation of the current system," Sanders told the Washington Post‘s Robert Costa.

A recent report from the Congressional Budget Office said that whether overall healthcare spending would decrease under Medicare for All would depend on "complex choices that policymakers would confront." The CBO also said that it would require higher taxes and government spending, and potentially lead to longer wait times.

Washington Free Beacon: Left-Wing ‘Alternative’ to Birthright Has Participants Questioning Belief in Jewish State

David Rutz — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 11:25:06 -0400

A J Street-sponsored trip last week billed as an alternative to Birthright Israel had two of its participants questioning their belief in the Jewish state.

The left-wing advocacy group took 28 college students on a trip called "Let Our People Know," which it said embraced Birthright's goals of connecting American Jews with their roots. However, the J Street tour also took the students to an Israeli settlement in the West Bank, the Palestinian city of Hebron, and Susiya, an Israeli archaeological site from which Palestinians were evicted.

During the trip, they were briefed by members of anti-Israel organizations Peace Now and B'tselem. The New York Times narrative told a story of the wide-eyed students—many of whom, according the report, were already J Street activists—being shown the light and even reconsidering Zionism:

As the day grew long, the facial expressions more pained and the questions more anguished, the J Street tour seemed increasingly incompatible with Birthright’s goal of hooking young American Jews on Israel.

By dinnertime, two participants said they were reconsidering their belief in a Jewish state. Jesse Steshenko, 19, of Santa Cruz, Calif., who has a Star of David tattooed on his right wrist, said he was "disgusted" with Israel’s government.

"I came in here a very ardent Zionist," he said. "You never know when a Holocaust might happen again. Yet, coming here, I’m starting to doubt whether a two-state solution is possible — and whether Zionism is even worth pursuing anymore."

J Street claims a desire to find a "two-state solution" to the longstanding conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, which means, in its words, a "secure, Jewish and democratic future for Israel."

The Times did quote a Birthright spokesman who said the purpose of its trips, which offer young adult American Jews a free tour of Israel, is "to strengthen Jewish identity and foster a love for the land, people and culture of Israel." Some progressives and anti-Israel activists protest the trips as pro-Israel propaganda.

Birthright Israel, which takes young Jews to Israel, has been criticized for avoiding the Israeli occupation of the West Bank. An alternative tour by a liberal lobbying group aims to also expose the realities for Palestinians. https://t.co/gitYgKPjWo

— The New York Times (@nytimes) July 10, 2019

J Street's top official in Israel, Yael Patir, said the trip was a success.

"We knew that their days in the West Bank would be the most challenging and difficult," she said. "But we also know that it’s the reason they came for the trip."

Washington Free Beacon: New York Daily News Reports That ‘John Glenn’ Was First Man on ‘Planet’ Moon

Alex Griswold — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 11:20:15 -0400

New York Daily News made a series of baffling errors in a retrospective article on the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission.

The liberal New York City tabloid reported Tuesday that, "A few days before the historic walk on the moon, Apollo 11 took off from the earth—50 years ago on July 16."

That was all accurate, but the Daily News continued: "Four days later John Glenn would step onto the only other planet we have ever walked on, and uttered the famous words ‘on [sic] small step for a man, one giant step for mankind.'"

Not including the typo, that sentence contained several glaring errors. Most obviously, Neil Armstrong was the first man to step foot on the moon. John Glenn was the first American to orbit the Earth, but he played no role in the Apollo 11 mission.

The second obvious error is the moon is not a "planet." It is a moon.

Lastly, Neil Armstrong's famous quotation upon taking his step on the moon did not end with "one giant step for mankind," but "one giant leap for mankind." There is also significant debate about whether Armstrong actually said "one small step for a man," or simply "for man."

The Daily News eventually stealth-edited the errors, but not before eagle-eyed readers screenshotted both the article and tweets using the same language. A Google search for the words used in the article confirms those screenshots are authentic.

So which dumbass in @NYDailyNews allowed the publication of a piece that 1) claimed John Glenn, not Neil Armstrong, was the first to walk on the moon; and 2) claimed that the moon was a planet? Does anyone with an "Editor" title actually do their job? pic.twitter.com/digmRtB7To

The National Interest: The Story of a Royal Air Force Pilot Who Scared Everyone by Flying Close to National Landmarks in London

Dario Leone — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 11:12:00 -0400

Dario Leone

History, Europe

Why did he do it?

Knowing that he was likely to be stripped of his flying status as a result of this display, he proceeded to “beat up” several airfields (Wattisham, Lakenheath and Marham) in inverted flight at an altitude of about 200 feet en route to his base at RAF West Raynham, where, within the hour, he was formally arrested by Flying Officer Roger Gilpin.

The so called Hawker Hunter Tower Bridge incident occurred on Apr. 5, 1968 when Royal Air Force (RAF) Hunter pilot Alan Pollock performed unauthorised low flying over several London landmarks and then flew through the span of Tower Bridge on the Thames. His actions were to mark the 50th anniversary of the founding of the RAF and as a demonstration against the Ministry of Defence) for not celebrating it.

In the 1960s, the British defence industry saw a shifting emphasis from manned aircraft towards guided missiles, originating from the 1957 Defence White Paper by British Defence Minister Duncan Sandys. The British aircraft industry had slipped into general decline and morale in the aerial services of the British armed forces was low.

Pollock loved the RAF and felt its 50th anniversary should be celebrated with a flypast over London. There had been an official dinner and a few parades — but no flypast. This, he felt, was a terrible slight.
