- Israeli Newspaper Haaretz Slams ‘Sycophantic’ Wall Street Journal Interview With Netanyahu
Abir Sultan/Pool Photo via AP Israeli newspaper Haaretz slammed the Wall Street Journal Sunday for what it called a “sycophantic” interview with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and accusing the publication of glossing over the plight of roughly 100 hostages still held in Gaza. In the view of Haaretz journalist Amir Tibon, the WSJ’s piece, posted on the opinion page—entitled “Benjamin Netanyahu: The Inside Story of Israel’s Victory”—amounts to nothing more than a “one-sided monologue with a few generous assists from the opinion editor.” Tibon mused that eve television interviews given to Netanyahu by “admiring loyalists” were “tough and demanding in comparison.” “If the Channel 14 interviews were like hour-long, soothing treatments for Netanyahu, the WSJ text can be compared to a full day at the spa,” Tibon wrote. While WSJ’s reporters had delivered multiple scoops throughout the conflict, Tibon questioned why opinion editor Elliot Kaufman, and not the newspaper’s journalists,… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - President Biden issues federal death row commutations

During several campaign rallies this year, Donald Trump denounced the political practice of asylum—namely, the legal status requested by foreigners fleeing political persecution and violence and entering the United States via a port of entry. Yet, Trump frequently coupled his criticisms of asylum with unrelated comments about mental institutions, creating confusion about his understanding of the issue. In front of a New Jersey crowd in May, Trump claimed that "the mental institution population is down because they're taking people from insane asylums [in foreign countries]" and sending them to the United States. "You know what the difference is, right?" he asked the crowd. "An insane asylum is a mental institution on steroids." Trump's stream of consciousness also roped in Hannibal Lecter, the violent and institutionalized antagonist from The Silence of the Lambs. After singing the serial killer's praises, Trump—never one for logical transitions—launched into his traditional anti-immigrant… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - UTSA vs. Coastal Carolina prediction, odds: 2024 Myrtle Beach Bowl picks from proven college footbal...

- Hero of 2024: Patrick Stump
The staff of Mother Jones is, once again, rounding up the heroes and monsters of the past year. Importantly, this is a completely non-exhaustive and subjective list, giving our reporters a chance to write about something that brought joy or discontent. Enjoy. Modern kids’ songs, the stuff of literal torture, are in lockstep with the AI slop that defines the current era of crushing, synthetic sameness. They suck. So you can imagine my surprise, amid a technicolor migraine brought on by the tyranny of “Daddy Finger” one morning, when the algorithm threw out a familiar voice. With equal parts amusement and skepticism, I asked my husband, “Is this the dude from…Fall……………Out Boy?” I have zero affection for Fall Out Boy. If anything, I’m certain I thought I was above this music; that’s what idiot teens on the verge of escaping the suburbs think. But I’m back in the ’burbs… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
