The Israel-Hamas War took center stage at last night's 66th Annual Grammy Awards on CBS‚ hosted by Trevor Noah.While Noah himself stayed relatively apolitical as host‚ conflict about the war interrupted the ceremony even before it began. Protesters carrying Palestinian flags and Free Palestine signs temporarily blocked drop-off access to the show‚ according to Deadline Magazine. During the ceremony itself‚ singer Annie Lennox cried out "Artists for ceasefire! Peace in the World!" after a performance of "Nothing Compares 2 U" in memory of the late Sinead O'Connor.   Lost on Lennox was the fact that Hamas has rejected Israeli cease-fire proposals‚ and they are still holding hostages from their October 7 attacks on innocent civilians. Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. did bring up the horrors of October 7th during his speech‚ referencing the Supernova music festival killings and kidnappings‚ in particular. Mason: Everyone of us‚ no matter where we are from is united by the shared experience of music. It brings us together like nothing else can‚ and that's why music must always be our safe space. When that's violated‚ it strikes at the very core of who we are. We felt that at the concert hall in Paris. We felt that at the Manchester arena in England. We felt that at the Route 91 Harvest music festival in Las Vegas. And on October 7th‚ we felt that again when we heard the tragic news from the Supernova music festival for a love that over 360 music fans lost their lives. And another 40 were kidnapped. That day and all the tragic days that have followed have been awful for the world to bear as we mourn the loss of all innocent lives.  He ended his speech with a nod to the string quartet accompanying it‚ composed of Arabs‚ Israelis and Palestinians. "Take this string quartet‚ as individuals they sound really good. But together‚ they achieve something beautiful they could never do a part. These musicians of Palestinian‚ Israeli and Arab descent are here playing together. Now is the time for us‚ for humanity to play together‚ to come together with empathy and with love‚ thank you‚" he said.  While the CEO addressed the overseas conflict‚ the ceremony's host steered clear of the topic and avoided politics in general. In fact‚ Noah made only two political jokes the whole night. After a commercial break‚ he joked‚ "We're back at the Grammys with all the stars that weren't on Epstein's list." The connection between Epstein and the rich and famous is no longer a taboo subject at awards ceremonies. Jim Gaffigan mocked Hollywood's Epstein connections at the Golden Globes last month. Noah's second political joke mocked the age of this year's major presidential candidates. He told the audience that the 66th Grammy Awards is "Still younger than America's next president."  Left-wing Hip-hop mogul Jay-Z received a "Global Impact Award" during the show. In his speech. he complained that the Academy never awarded his wife Beyonce album of the year.  “I don't want to embarrass this young lady‚ but she has more Grammys than anyone and never won Album of the Year‚" he whined. Later‚ Taylor Swift won Album of the Year for "Midnights" and accepted graciously. Miley Cyrus won Record of the Year‚ different from Album of the Year‚ for "Flowers." She behaved trashily‚ telling the audience that she "might have forgotten underwear." In another era‚ Cyrus' announcement would have shocked‚ but our culture is sadly numb to such crassness at this point. All in all‚ the Grammy's were tolerable despite some annoying "stars." Trevor Noah may have been obnoxious when helming his own late-night show‚ but he is generally pleasant and inoffensive when hosting the Grammys. As he has done in prior years‚ he kept the show focused primarily on music and minimized other distractions.

Joe Scarborough—recently revealed to be a frequent phone buddy and adviser to Joe Biden—was hard at work on behalf of his man this morning. Morning Joe waited till the end of its first hour to breathe any mention of a new NBC News poll. But even then‚ Scarborough only discussed the poll's findings showing Americans still dissatisfied about the economy‚ and expressing much more confidence in Trump's ability to deal with it. There was nary a mention of the headline number of the poll: that among registered voters‚ Trump is beating Biden by 5 points‚ his largest lead yet!  In addition to covering for Biden‚ Scarborough was also following the lead of his parent network. The NBC article on the poll didn't get around to mentioning the head-to-head matchup showing Trump with a 5% lead until . . . the 27th paragraph! Even for an until-recently undercover member of Team Biden like Scarborough‚ his total omission of the most important poll number constituted shameful journalistic malpractice. Did Joe 'n Joe chat last night and decide the bad poll number should be deep-sixed? Note that when a recent poll showed Biden beating Trump‚ Morning Joe trumpeted it. See screencap. In trying to downplay the significance of the poll‚ Scarborough ripped Democrats for "panicking" over it‚ and said that there's a "long way to go." He did stop short of accusing Dems of being "bedwetters‚" or breaking out the old chestnut about polls being "just a snapshot in time!" There was a curious moment toward the end of the segment. When "MSNBC Republican" Elise Jordan‚ agreeing with Scarborough‚ observed that "so much can happen from now until November‚" Mika murmured: "That's the part to worry about." What could Mika have had in mind? A dramatic development in which Biden doesn't run and is replaced by likely landslide loser Kamala? Note also that in teasing the segment‚ Mika vowed that the show would be "digging into" the poll. Yeah‚ with a very small teaspoon! Here's the transcript. MSNBC Morning Joe 2/5/24 6:18 am ET MIKA BRZEZINSKI: Ahead‚ despite an impressive January jobs report‚ President Biden still down 20 points when it comes to the economy. We're digging into new NBC News polling. . . .  Friday's numbers showed the U.S. economy added 353‚000 dollars‚ uh‚  jobs last month. Economists had predicted gains around 185‚000. So that's a IIlot more than expected. But despite continued strong economic data‚ new polling from NBC News shows 36% of registered voters approve of how President Joe Biden has handled the economy. And when asked who they would trust more to handle the economy‚ 55% said Donald Trump‚ compared to 33% who said Biden. JOE SCARBOROUGH: So Jonathan Lemire‚ the numbers are stark despite the good numbers in the economy. And let's keep that one up right there‚ 55% to 33%. Why‚ what's the Biden White House's explanation? And what are they going to do about it? JONATHAN LEMIRE: I was speaking to some senior aides at the end of last week about this very matter‚ and they're still confident they can turn this narrative around. They point to the strong jobs report‚ other strong economic metrics.  Most importantly‚ they feel‚ consumer sentiment. They feel like people are feeling better about the economy‚ and that translates‚ usually‚ into votes for the incumbent‚ the president who is overseeing that strong economy.  But at least for now‚ there is a disconnect between Americans who now are starting to think better about how things feel‚ economically‚ but they're not giving the White House any credit. There's a -- that is something that they need to work on. That's about messaging‚ that's about salesmanship. That's certainly something this White House is going to do. . . .  JOE SCARBOROUGH: You look at the numbers‚ obviously a lot of Democrats panicking as Democrats do. We're in the beginning of February‚ long way to go. Joe Biden's numbers are very low. These are -- and this is -- you know‚ there was an FT [Financial Times] article on this last week‚ I think‚ that we talked about. Donald Trump could win. Who knows? Maybe he wins in a landslide. Not saying he's not. I am saying‚ though‚ if you look at numbers across the West‚ you see leaders that have low approval ratings. You saw Emmanuel Macron when he was going into re-election with approval ratings in the low-to-mid 30s. He ended up with 58% of the vote.  I just think staring at approval ratings and panicking about February polls‚ that's just time wasted. ELISE JORDAN: No‚ and so much can happen from now until November. MIKA: That's the part to worry about.

In 2020‚ Joe Biden won three states by less than 1 point: Georgia‚ Arizona and Wisconsin. If Donald Trump can flip these three in November — he took them all in 2016 — he’ll be back in the White House this time next year. Can he do it? First he has to hold every state he won last time. Trump’s narrowest victory was in North Carolina‚ where his margin was a little more than 1.3%. His home state of Florida was his next-closest win‚ with a margin around 3.4%. Biden‚ by contrast‚ has six states to defend where he prevailed by less than three points‚ including Pennsylvania‚ which he won by less than 1.2%. The Keystone State’s Sen. John Fetterman might be saving Biden’s reelection effort: By condemning the Hamas-sympathizing left and corruption in the Democratic Party — at least where his colleague from New Jersey‚ Sen. Bob Menendez‚ is concerned — Fetterman has reminded Pennsylvanians of Democrats’ claims to the political center. But Trump can get the Electoral College votes he needs even without Pennsylvania. One potentially decisive question is whether Biden has lost the momentum that carried him to his narrowest victories in Georgia‚ Arizona and Wisconsin. In 2020‚ the sitting president got the blame for COVID‚ the recession it caused and the George Floyd crisis in our cities. The buck stopped with Trump. Today it’s Biden who can’t evade responsibility for everything going wrong‚ from the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East to Americans’ continuing dissatisfaction with the economy. Yet‚ to capitalize on this‚ Trump’s team must run a more disciplined campaign than the disastrous one Brad Parscale led in 2020. As irritating as he might find the irony‚ Trump stands to benefit from the primary challenges Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley have mounted. DeSantis forced Trump to get serious about mobilizing to win — and win big — in Iowa. By drawing more independent voters into the New Hampshire GOP primary‚ Haley gave Trump a taste of the difficulty he’ll face with such voters in November. And by staying in the race‚ even when her odds seem hopeless‚ Haley spurs Trump’s campaign to work harder than it otherwise would. The campaign resents the expense‚ naturally‚ but the practice it gets turning out the base to beat Haley by the widest possible margins is invaluable training for the general election. It’s precisely the kind of experience the Trump campaign needs to keep North Carolina in the red column and maximize turnout to win back Georgia. The fact that Haley‚ like DeSantis before her‚ has no path to the nomination is an indication of how unified the GOP is; voters are conclusively committed to Trump. Yet the fact that there are challenges at all is a reminder that the party does still contain other personalities and centers of power‚ and in critical states Trump needs the full cooperation of Republican leaders with whom he has frosty (or worse) relations. Alienating DeSantis in Florida or prolonging a feud with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp risks courting defeat in November. So does writing off those in the Arizona GOP who still revere John McCain. Political differences are one thing‚ but where disagreements on substance are most intense‚ reconciliation on a personal level — or‚ at a minimum‚ avoidance of gratuitous offense — is absolutely necessary for party unity. People who agree with you might vote for you even if they don’t like you; people who don’t‚ won’t‚ unless they feel honored even in dissent. There was no love lost between George W. Bush and Pat Buchanan in 2000‚ but Bush pleaded with Buchanan to stay in the GOP — and Buchanan has said that when his Reform Party candidacy looked like it might cost Bush the votes he needed to win Palm Beach County (and hence Florida and the general election)‚ he got on his knees and prayed for Bush to prevail. Trump needs his rivals on their knees‚ too — not in submission but in prayer for his success. Even so‚ geography‚ rather than generosity‚ is the principle that should guide his vice-presidential pick; he can handle conciliation personally. What Trump needs most is a running mate who can put into play states like Wisconsin‚ Pennsylvania and Michigan‚ at least one of which Trump must win even if he gets Georgia and Arizona. Is Sen. J.D. Vance the populist pick to rouse these Rust Belt states hit hard by globalization? Or does Rep. Elise Stefanik give Trump a much-needed boost with women? Can South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem combine Midwestern appeal and the women’s vote? A strategic choice of VP and a party unified in the battleground states‚ plus Biden’s dismal record‚ might be all it takes to turn the 2020 map back into Trump’s winning 2016 map.

Sometimes I wonder why they let Biden go out and speak when he clearly doesn’t know what he’s talking about. On Sunday night‚ Joe Biden contradicted himself when talking about abortion. Biden insisted that he’s not for “abortion on demand” - but that he’s for abortion in all three trimesters of a woman’s pregnancy. In response‚ many users and outlets were flabbergasted by how little sense he made. During his Las Vegas stop for his campaign‚ Biden began telling the audience about the negative impacts that would occur if former President Donald Trump were to gain the presidency again. Naturally‚ Biden spoke about Trump’s pro-life policies but ended up completely contradicting himself about his own stance on abortion.  “Trump is bragging about turning over another basic freedom‚” Biden said at one point‚ “Roe v. Wade.” The pro-abort audience erupted in boos. “If MAGA Republicans try to pass a national ban on a woman’s right to choose‚ I will veto it‚” Biden insisted confidently. A right to choose between ending the life of an innocent baby or allowing it the most basic human right? Yeah‚ that seems super Catholic of you Mr. President. Then Biden stared intently towards the audience and promised that if he were elected‚ he’d “bring back Roe v. Wade.” Again‚ the audience cheered. I think that threw Biden off because in his next statement‚ he got all twisted around. Biden: "I love how Trump is saying Biden is for abortion on demand. Not true. That's not what Roe v. Wade said. It said the three trimesters ... Trump and his MAGA friends are dividing us‚ not uniting us." pic.twitter.com/6b4K1S15WG — The Post Millennial (@TPostMillennial) February 5‚ 2024 “I love how Trump is saying Biden is for abortion on demand. Not true. That’s not what Roe v. Wade said. It said the three trimesters‚” Biden (somehow) confidently said.  Sir‚ if you want to allow abortion throughout all three trimesters of a three trimester long pregnancy‚ you do want abortion on demand. That‚ by definition‚ is the most “on demand” type allotment there is. “Does this high IQed individual realize he just said he’s for abortion for 3 trimesters and there are in fact 3 trimesters a pregnancy…the jokes just write themselves‚” a user on X wrote. “U can tell when he goes off script and when he reads teleprompter‚” another added. One user sarcastically added that Biden is “willing to restrict abortion in the fourth trimester‚” and another user did the same while writing‚ “That’s nice of him - as long as it is before the 1st birthday he is cool with.” For anyone to say that they support abortion during all three trimesters of pregnancy is completely and utterly barbaric. It’s sad that Biden‚ the supposed leader of the free world‚ fails to realize that freedom starts with having a chance at life. No society is truly free if we continue to insist that killing babies is somehow morally acceptable.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) plans to hold the first vote on his $118 billion "Emergency National Security" bill Wednesday. However‚ following the bill's long-awaited reveal Sunday‚ House Republicans made clear that Schumer's efforts will be in vain. According to House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.)‚ the bill will be "dead on arrival." What's the background? Blaze News previously detailed how the 370-page bill‚ which has the blessing of Schumer and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.)‚ would provide $60.06 billion in support for Ukraine in its war with Russia; $14.1 billion in security assistance to Israel; $10 billion in humanitarian aid for civilians in Gaza‚ the West Bank‚ and Ukraine; and $20.23 billion for American border security. McConnell claimed in a statement Sunday that the bill "begins with direct and immediate solutions to the crisis at our southern border." A closed border is evidently not among the solutions. Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) admitted the "border never closes" under the proposed scheme. Coons suggested that rather than preventing thousands of illegal aliens from entering the U.S. daily‚ the bill would ensure that those unaccompanied minors who have jumped the border get free immigration lawyers; that all illegal aliens are afforded the right to legal representation; and that asylum-seekers will not be detained while their claims are processed. The bill would also fund an increase in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention capacity from 34‚000 to 50‚00; fast-track asylum cases; raise the standard for illegal aliens to qualify to apply to asylum; and grant the government the power it already has to secure the border if there is a one-week daily average of 5‚000 illegal entries or 8‚500 illegal entries in a single day. reported Newsweek. Dead on arrival House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said in an X post Sunday evening‚ "I've seen enough. This bill is even worse than we expected‚ and won't come close to ending the border catastrophe the President has created." "As the lead Democrat negotiator proclaimed: Under this legislation‚ 'the border never closes‚'" continued Johnson. "If this bill reaches the House‚ it will be dead on arrival." — (@) House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) vowed that the bill would not get a vote in the House‚ underscoring the legislation would serve only to exacerbate the crisis at the border. "Here's what the people pushing this 'deal' aren't telling you: It accepts 5‚000 illegal immigrants a day and gives automatic work permits to asylum recipients — a magnet for more illegal immigration‚" said Scalise. According to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas‚ the bill would indeed "expedite protection and work authorization" for illegal aliens "with legitimate claims." Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs (R) piled on hours later‚ writing‚ "The Senate border bill is the worst idea on border 'security' — EVER.' Frankly‚ it makes matters worse than they already are. It is a disaster. Hard to believe‚ but this is even more terrible than the old Gang of Eight legislation." Rep. Mary Miller (R-Ill.) wrote‚ "The Senate AMNESTY bill erases our borders. Every Senator took an oath to uphold our laws‚ including our border security &; immigration laws‚ inluding our border security &; immigration laws. ... This is AMERICA LAST!" According to House GOP conference chair Elise Stefanik (N.Y.)‚ the bill is an "absolute non-starter." "This Joe Biden/Chuck Schumer Open Border Bill is an absolute non-starter and will further incentivize thousands of illegals to pour in across our borders daily‚" said Stefanik. "House Republicans have already passed HR2 - the Secure Our Border Act‚ which would actually secure the border and return to the effective Trump policies with the most secure border in our nation’s history." Senate opposition Senate Republicans already critical of the bill reiterated their opposition after the text of the bill was revealed to the public. "I can understand why Chris Murphy supports it‚" wrote Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio). "I cannot imagine why any Republican supports this atrocious proposal." — (@) "Now that the text of the bill has been released‚ it appears even worse than we feared‚" said Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.). Johnson suggested Sunday that the bill serves to give Democratic lawmakers in Washington‚ D.C.‚ "cover" now that the border crisis has become an issue for blue cities such as Chicago and New York City. Johnson noted further that President Joe Biden already has the authority and ability to stem the flood of illegal aliens into the country‚ making this legislation largely unnecessary. Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) dismissed the legislation‚ calling it the "Border Capitulation Bill." Lee suggested that the bill had much to offer in the way of "protecting aliens and their personal information [but] nothing protecting Americans." "Senate GOP leadership screwed this up — and screwed us. Even while refusing to let us see the bill they claimed to be negotiating on our behalf — for MONTHS — they were never in doubt‚ insisting we’d be dumb and even unpatriotic NOT to support it‚" wrote Lee. "This is a disqualifying betrayal." Senate GOP leadership screwed this up\u2014and screwed us. Even while refusing to let us see the bill they claimed to be negotiating on our behalf\u2014for MONTHS\u2014they were never in doubt‚ insisting we\u2019d be dumb and even unpatriotic NOT to support it. This is a disqualifying betrayal. — (@) Sen. Eric Schmitt (Mo.) said‚ "There you have it: Dead on arrival in the House. This bill is a disaster. Yet Schumer is trying to jam the Senate." Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford (R)‚ who took the lead in brokering the deal‚ has attempted to defend the bill‚ claiming parts of it have been misunderstood or misrepresented. Lankford stressed in a statement that "this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to close our open border and give future administrations the effective tools they need to stop the border chaos and protect our nation." Lankford was censured in advance for allegedly "playing fast and loose with Democrats on our border policy" and helping Democrats advance legislation that authorizes "several thousand people to invade our borders."

A left-wing politician in England has requested that her government amend the law to allow for alleged transgender people to have their official genders changed after they have died.Charlotte Nichols‚ a Labour Party politician from Warrington North in England‚ called for a change in a written parliamentary question. The progressive asked if the U.K.'s Gender Recognition Act could be amended so that a person's legal gender could be changed after the person's death.Her reasoning stems from the story of a murdered 16-year-old girl who Nichols claimed was not yet old enough to change her gender when she died."The genesis of the petition was the murder of my constituent Brianna Ghey‚ whose life was brutally cut short before she was old enough to have formal legal recognition of who she was and how she will be remembered by her family‚ friends‚ and our community‚" Nichols said‚ according to GB News.This would allow "transgender people who are deceased to be legally remembered by the gender they lived by‚" the member of Parliament added.The ruling Conservative Party abruptly said there were no plans to change the law and that the government can already assess whether a person had a "new gender" before death."Where a person was using their new gender with an organization prior to their death‚ and that was on their personal records‚ then we anticipate that the organization would engage with their family members using the new gender‚" said Equalities Minister Stuart Andrew.Another member of Parliament‚ Sir Liam Fox‚ called the idea "patently absurd‚ factually inaccurate‚ and a statistical distortion.""We should not be encouraging the idea that people can simply choose to change their biological status‚ nor should we bend truth to accommodate an ever more extreme and dangerous ideology‚" the MP for North Somerset‚ England‚ added.Nichols‚ who has been pictured in U.K. Parliament sporting a leather jacket‚ has presented other ideas in reaction to the aforementioned teen girl's death.Nichols suggested that the government prevent children under 16 from accessing social media by giving them specially designed phones:"We'd like a law introduced so that there are mobile phones that are only suitable for under-16s‚" she said‚ according to the BBC. "So if you're over 16‚ you can have an adult phone‚ but then under the age of 16‚ you can have a children's phone‚ which will not have all of the social media apps that are out there now‚" Nichols added.The 32-year-old also suggested that the technology should be linked to a parent's phone and claimed it has been "just not doable" for parents to track their kids' activity. 2024 Election year - latest from Labour \n\n#Labour MP Charlotte Nichols - for Warrington North - suggested dead people should be able to change their gender\n\n Mental health on the up Labour are pushing this gender madness at full speed - It must stop! — (@) Like Blaze News?

A drone strike that hit a Syrian military base on Sunday killed at least six allied Kurdish soldiers. There were also U.S. troops stationed at the base‚ but there were no American casualties in the attack‚ according to Fox News Digital.The strike hit a training ground at al-Omar in Syria's Deir el-Zour province. The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces said that the drone attack struck a part of the base where commando units were training.Britain-based opposition war monitor Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said there were at least seven Kurdish fighters killed in the attack and at least 18 others injured. Some of those injured are reportedly in critical condition.The report mentioned that this is the first major attack in Syria or Iraq since the U.S. launched attacks against Iran-backed militias. Militias have been carrying out attacks in the area since Hamas launched a surprise attack against Israel on October 7.The SDF initially said the attack was carried out by "Syrian regime-backed mercenaries" but accused "Iran-backed militias." The Islamic Resistance — a generalized term that represents all Iran-backed Iraqi militias — claimed responsibility for the attack on Sunday and later released a video of the attack.This is not the first time the group has launched an attack against U.S. forces. Late last month‚ the same group carried out a drone strike that killed three U.S. troops and wounded dozens more at a base in Jordan‚ according to Military.com. In response‚ the U.S. has carried out several attacks‚ including strikes in western Iraq‚ eastern Syria‚ and against Houthis in Yemen.The Islamic Resistance has called for U.S. troops to vacate the region.Fox News Digital reported that Houthi rebels vowed that there would be "escalation" in the region after the U.S. strikes in Yemen. A spokesperson for the group said there would be a response to the attack‚ "no matter the sacrifices it costs us.""The US-British coalition’s bombing of a number of Yemeni provinces will not change our position‚ and we affirm that our military operations against Israel will continue until the crimes of genocide in Gaza are stopped and the siege on its residents is lifted‚ no matter the sacrifices it costs us‚" Mohammed al-Bukhaiti posted to X. — (@) "If the regional war breaks out‚ it equals the end of US hegemony in the region‚" the spokesperson said.
