NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Every year, people co-opt Passover to push partisan agendas. This year, Jewish human rights groups are already promoting Passover Haggadah materials that urge people to put “social justice on your seder table” and confront “racism,” poverty, authoritarianism, and the climate crisis. Instead of letting the holiday change us, we keep recruiting it to endorse causes.Predictable columns recast the holiday as a lesson in immigrant rights. Reform Judaism even encourages adding modern political symbols to the seder plate, like olives in solidarity with Palestinians, oranges to symbolize LGBTQ+ inclusion, fair-trade chocolate to represent labor rights, and acorns to honor American Indians.I’m guilty of this myself. I once wrote a column arguing that including the “wicked child” at the Seder table symbolically rejects cancel culture, and an article arguing that the Exodus story defends free speech because Moses demanded that Pharaoh “let my people go,” and the Israelites merited redemption, in part, by preserving their language under slavery.But politicizing religion risks overshadowing its personal and spiritual essence.WHAT IS PASSOVER? EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE HOLIDAYProgressives do this. Conservatives do too. The right invokes the Bible to oppose abortion and defend traditional family…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! MLB umpire CB Bucknor drew scrutiny and laughter on Tuesday night when he made a bizarre call while manning the first base line during a game between the Milwaukee Brewers and Tampa Bay Rays.The oddity took place in the bottom of the sixth inning with Brewers batter Jake Bauers at the plate going up against Rays pitcher Cole Sulser. Bauers hit a liner to Rays second baseman Ben Williamson, who knocked the ball down but his rushed throw to first base was wide. It was a remarkably routine play by baseball’s standards. But Bucknor ruled that Bauers didn’t touch first base and when he was tagged, he was out. The replay showed that Bauers clearly touched the first base bag with Bucknor only a few feet away from the play.The call was instantly overturned.TWINS MANAGER EJECTED AFTER EXPLODING OVER TIMING OF ABS CHALLENGE VS ORIOLES Bauers was seen smiling as he went back to first base as was Brewers manager Pat Murphy. Rays manager Kevin Cash also couldn’t help but smirk at the situation.Former New York Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain also weighed in.”This is so bad you just have to laugh!!  Something…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Here’s a fact that might surprise some people — in the United States, the majority of clean power comes from red states. Political stereotypes would have us believe that blue states are responsible for most renewable energy. But red states — guided by leaders who believe in capitalism and the free market — understand that investing in solar, wind and battery storage is just as smart as supporting oil and natural gas. As a former governor, I learned that when it comes to energy, government should step back. Politicians may generate hot air, but the market is best at generating power. We must ensure consumers have access to reliable energy choices — whether that’s gasoline, natural gas, or renewable sources like solar.Instead of the government choosing winners and losers, elected leaders should ensure that consumers have access to the energy choices they prefer, whatever those might be.HOUSE GOP MOVES TO CEMENT TRUMP ENERGY AGENDA BY TAKING SLEDGEHAMMER TO BIDEN-ERA REGULATIONS For instance, some Americans prefer to fill their cars with gasoline and rely on natural gas for heating. Others might choose to plug in their electric vehicles at night and install solar panels on their roof…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Wars are not defined by the tonnage of munitions expended or ships sunk. They are defined by whether military force serves a coherent political objective. One month into Operation Epic Fury, that principle remains unlearned.On February 28, U.S. and Israeli forces launched the largest American military action in the Middle East since Iraq. Iran’s navy has been gutted, its air defenses wrecked, and its missile production disrupted. The administration is tallying strikes and sunken ships the way commanders in Vietnam tallied body counts. Those metrics told then-President Lyndon B. Johnson nothing about whether he was winning. They tell us nothing now.The Military PictureIran is still fighting. Despite losing over 150 naval vessels and its supreme leader in the opening strikes, the regime did not fracture. Mojtaba Khamenei was installed as the Supreme Leader within days. This past week, the IRGC’s navy commander was killed in a U.S. strike. No succession crisis followed. U.S. intelligence assessments confirmed the regime remains “intact but largely degraded.” Degraded is not defeated.Iran entered this war already financially broken. It is still fighting.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! I’ve had no intention of piling on Kristi Noem.She did a terrible job, especially with ICE and FEMA, seemed obsessed with promoting herself–whether at a Salvadoran prison or on horseback at Mount Rushmore–and President Trump fired her. He probably waited too long, but he did oust her as secretary of Homeland Security. End of story.Until now.300-PLUS ANGEL FAMILIES JUMP INTO MARKWAYNE MULLIN’S DHS NOMINATION FIGHT IN UNEQUIVOCAL TERMSI know this reeks of gossipy tabloidism, but it directly involves the ex-secretary and, what makes it dead serious, it raises the prospect of blackmail. And it follows the romantic rumors that she has dismissed.The Daily Mail, which has amassed a ton of evidence, reports on the “secret life,” to use that headline-grabbing cliche, of her husband, Bryon Noem.There are several photos of Bryon Noem, sporting pink hotpants and enormous fake breasts.  Mail reporters interviewed several “fetish” models who claim to have had an online relationship with Noem, tied to women fantasizing about becoming Barbie dolls with gigantic curves (far eclipsing the actual skinny dolls). It’s called “bimbofication.”The piece says Mr. Noem is said to have paid these women thousands of dollars for their services,…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A federal judge ruled on Tuesday that the Trump administration unlawfully terminated the legal status of thousands of migrants who had been allowed to temporarily live in the U.S. after using an app expanded by the Biden administration to schedule appointments with immigration officials.U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs in Boston ordered the administration to reverse its move last year to revoke the legal status of migrants who used the CBP One app.The app was used under former President Joe Biden starting in 2023 to address the crisis at the border by allowing some migrants to make appointments to seek asylum, with many paroled into the country for up to two years, but President Donald Trump moved to shut down the app when he returned to the White House last year.Burroughs found that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security acted unlawfully in April of last year when it sent mass emails to many of the roughly 900,000 people who entered the country using the app, informing them that it was “time for you to leave the United States.”VENEZUELAN MIGRANTS, PROGRESSIVE GROUP SUE TRUMP AFTER NOEM NIXES BIDEN-ERA ‘PROTECTED STATUS’ “The regulations do not…

They’re worried that it’s too late.””But listening to you talk about it, it seems like that’s only one part of the issue and not the big part,” Rogan said. “The big part seems to be that we’re being poisoned, and we’re doing it by virtue of our modern world that we live in where so much of your life relies on plastic.”MORE AND MORE GEN Z WOMEN SAY THEY DON’T WANT KIDS.
