Sirens sounded all over Israel Tuesday night as ballistic missiles flared overhead. Millions of Israelis were directed to hide in bomb shelters while at least 180 Iranian projectiles entered Israeli airspace.

Two U.S. Navy destroyers aided Israel in the attack and fired about 12 interceptors against the missiles, according to the Pentagon. Iran carried out a similar missile attack against Israel in April. Most of the missiles were shot down, but an air base in southern Israel did sustain minor damage. After the spring attack, President Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to “take the win.”  Biden said Tuesday that he and Vice President Kamala Harris “convened our national security team to discuss Iranian plans to launch an imminent missile attack against Israel. We discussed how the United States is prepared to help Israel defend against these attacks, and protect American personnel in the region.” This morning, @VP and I convened our national security team to discuss Iranian plans to launch an imminent missile attack against Israel.We discussed how the United States is prepared to help Israel defend against these attacks, and protect American personnel in the region.— President Biden (@POTUS) October 1, 2024 Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Tuesday that the U.S. is “committed to Israel’s defense,” but did not give specifics.  Iran’s attack came in response to Israel killing multiple terrorist leaders in recent days and weeks, including Hamas and Hezbollah leaders. Iran called its missile attack on Israel a “legal, rational, and legitimate response to the terrorist acts of the Zionist regime—which involved targeting Iranian nationals and interests and infringing upon the national sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran.” Iran’s legal, rational, and legitimate response to the terrorist acts of the Zionist regime—which involved targeting Iranian nationals and interests and infringing upon the national sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran—has been duly carried out. Should the Zionist regime…— I.R.IRAN Mission to UN, NY (@Iran_UN) October 1, 2024 Iran warned Israel and its allies: “Should the Zionist regime dare to respond or commit further acts of malevolence, a subsequent and crushing response will ensue. Regional states and the Zionists’ supporters are advised to part ways with the regime.” There were no immediate reports of deaths in Israel following the attack, but at least six people were killed in a shooting in Tel Aviv during the rocket attack. Police neutralized the attackers and say it was an act of terrorism.  The Pentagon is discussing next steps with Israel.

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—The nonprofit that has been exposing radical gender ideology in California filed a lawsuit Monday against the public school district in Lynwood, California, for failing to comply with state law by providing requested documents about its “gender transition” plans for schoolchildren. Lynwood Unified School District in Los Angeles County hasn’t responded to the Center for American Liberty’s repeated records requests, the organization says. According to the organization, this silence violates the California Public Records Act, which requires government entities to disclose records to the public upon request. “This is a clear violation of state law,” Mark Trammell, executive director of the Center for American Liberty, said in a statement shared with The Daily Signal. The center is a nonprofit dedicated to litigating free speech and civil liberties issues. “LUSD’s refusal to respond to a public records request is not only illegal, it is part of a broader trend of schools across California keeping parents in the dark about what’s really happening in the classroom. Parents have a right to know, and Lynwood is not above the law.”  Petition-for-Writ-of-MandateDownload The Center for American Liberty issued a public records request on July 23. It asked for information on district policies on maintaining and disclosing student records; information on so-called gender support plans, which school districts use to help children socially “transition” to another gender; and information on communications with outside organizations like Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union.  Though state law requires the district to respond within 10 days, Lynwood Unified has supplied no documentation.  The Center for American Liberty has exposed several California school districts for helping kids “transition” without their parents’ knowledge.  For instance, the nonprofit exposed that Newport-Mesa Unified School District forced students to choose between rooming with a transgender-identifying student or missing out on an overnight school field trip, as The Daily Signal first reported. The Center for American Liberty also filed a lawsuit against Burbank Unified School District for failing to fully comply with a public records request. The records the district did supply showed it uses Gender Spectrum’s model for a gender support plan, a document that establishes steps to hide a child’s new “gender identity” from his or her parents. The document asks whether “guardians” are aware of the child’s gender status, ranks the level of their support, then asks: “If [the] support level is low, what considerations must be accounted for in implementing this plan?” Capistrano Unified School District in California’s southern Orange County allows a student to change his or her name and gender in school records without parental permission, according to records obtained by the Center for American Liberty and shared with The Daily Signal. The center believes Lynwood Unified may be hiding student gender transition plans and partnerships with organizations pushing gender ideology like with the other districts it has exposed.  Lynwood Unified allows students to use facilities and participate in activities and sports in accordance with their chosen “gender identity,” meaning biological males can use girls’ bathrooms and compete against girls in sports.  Lynwood Unified School District did not respond to The Daily Signal’s request for comment by time of publication. The widespread disregard for parental rights in California, the center argues, follows the example of Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, who on July 15, signed legislation known as Assembly Bill 1955 that allows public schools to hide a student’s gender identity from his or her parents. AB 1955 overrules any local school board policies that require transparency with parents about their child’s sexual orientation or gender identity. “Gov. Newsom is pushing parents’ rights out of the picture,” Center for American Liberty founder Harmeet Dhillon said.

DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Thousands of unionized dockworkers went on strike just after midnight Tuesday at 14 major ports along the East Coast and the Gulf Coast, setting the stage for possible supply chain disruptions with about a month to go until Election Day. The International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) announced in an early-morning Tuesday Facebook post that the union and its members would “shut down” the ports after failing to reach a new contract with the United States Maritime Alliance (USMX), according to Axios. The strike could cause major supply chain disruptions, shortages and billions of dollars of costs for the U.S. economy if it drags on for an extended period of time, and it comes just five weeks ahead of pivotal federal elections. “USMX brought on this strike when they decided to hold firm to foreign owned Ocean Carriers earning billion-dollar profits at United States ports, but not compensate the American ILA longshore workers who perform the labor that brings them their wealth,” ILA President Harold Daggett said of the strike, per Axios. “We are prepared to fight as long as necessary, to stay out on strike for whatever period of time it takes, to get the wages and protections against automation our ILA members deserve.” Right outside the entrance of the Port of Baltimore at the Dundalk terminal are dozens of people picketing in the rain in solidarity with the ILA port worker strike. Watch @wjz this morning for live updates pic.twitter.com/f6HJeUfxKm— Alexus Davila (@AlexusVDavila) October 1, 2024 USMX — an entity representing the interests of the container carriers, port associations and terminal operators that employ the longshoremen — says it offered to give the union a 50% wage increase, triple employer contributions to retirement plans, improve options for health care coverage and maintain current protections for workers against automation. However, this offer did not satisfy the union before it launched the strike largely due to concerns about automation. If the strike lasts more than a few days, it risks knocking supply chains off balance and possibly causing shortages of goods like automobile parts and bananas, according to Axios. The new strike is the first major stoppage to hit major East Coast ports since 1977, though this one could be more economically disruptive given that global trade has grown substantially in the time since and elevated the importance of seaports. Estimates vary as to how badly the strike may hurt the American economy, as JPMorgan projects that the strike could cost the U.S. as much as $4.5 billion per day while The Conference Board expects that the strike could end up costing about $3.7 billion if it goes on for a week, according to Axios. The strike figures include about 45,000 workers, but other related warehouse and transportation jobs could also be affected; Oxford Economics has projected that as many as 105,000 workers may find themselves temporarily out of work as a result of the stoppage. President Joe Biden — who has touted himself as a staunchly pro-labor president — has the power to step in to forestall or end the strike under the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947, though he said Sunday that he does not plan to block the strike, according to Axios. However, some analysts are expecting the White House to intervene in the strike if it goes on for more than a week or so. Blocking the strike could upset the key organized labor constituency with elections just around the corner, but letting the strike go on for too long could put upward pressure on prices for consumers, who are already weary of Biden-era inflation, according to Axios. Many companies knew that the strike could be coming, and rerouted shipments to West Coast ports unaffected by the strike in advance, according to Axios. However, some shipments — especially for perishable goods like fruits and vegetables — cannot be so easily redirected. The ILA and USMX did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
