The week in whoppers: Israel-hater cries discrimination, Hunter Biden lobs unhinged charge at Netanyahu and more

Diary of disturbing disinformation and dangerous delusions

This whine:

“No student . . . should go through the hell Columbia put us through.” — Mahmoud Khalil, Monday

We say: That’s ballsy. After leading a movement that terrorized Columbia’s campus (especially Jews), occupied a building, kidnapped and beat a janitor and chanted for Israelis to be killed or ethnically cleansed — practically with the school’s permission — Khalil is now slamming Columbia and suing it for “discrimination” against Palestinians. Expect American “useful idiots” to cheer him on.

This advice:

“You don’t assess a fish on climb [sic] a tree because fish can’t climb trees.” — NYS Regent Felicia Thomas-Williams, Tuesday 

We say: Talk about a “soft bigotry of low expectations”: Here’s a public official writing off students’ ability to learn (and teachers’ to educate). Make no mistake, Thomas-Williams’ remark implied that mainly blacks and Hispanics can’t learn, since they make up 62% of the city’s public-school kids and 42% of the state’s. If President Trump said this, there’d be riots.

This charge:

“They knew [the Oct. 7 attack] was coming, and they let it happen.” — Hunter Biden, Wednesday

We say: The former First Son says he’s quit drugs, but here he is asserting, with zero evidence, that Benjamin Netanyahu chose not to stop the massacre of 1,200 Israelis, kidnapping of 250 more and rape of countless women so he’d have an excuse to carry out his evil “genocide” plan. Missing from the ugly conspiracy theory: how Bibi forced Hamas’ savages to attack.

This analysis:

“The Zen [sic] diagram on that is pure crossover.” — Calif. Gov. Gavin Newsom, Monday

We say: Newsom said he won’t run for president if Kamala Harris does, in part because their supporters overlap so they’d be splitting the vote. Yet the gov revealed his own haplessness by referring to a Zen diagram (which doesn’t exist) instead of a Venn diagram, ironically a term Harris often drops in her word salads.
