Biden's Gut-Wrenching Verbal Gaffe in Front of Hostage's Mother

Department of Defense press secretary Maj. Gen. Patrick Ryder revealed on Tuesday in the department's estimation, none of the over 500 metric tons of aid from the U.S.-built pier has made it to the people of Gaza.The U.S. pier was authorized by President Joe Biden's administration in an attempt to distribute more aid within the war zone, in addition to aid brought in through border crossings and through air drops. The pier was built off the coast near Nuseirat in central Gaza.[The pier] has run into other severe problems before it started operating.Ryder said he did not believe any of the aid brought through the pier had gotten to the people of Gaza, resulting in the U.S., Israel, and the United Nations having discussions for "alternative routes" in order for the safe passage of the trucks. — (@) — (@) The pier cost the U.S. over $320 million to build and has run into other severe problems before it started operating. While it was being constructed in April, the pier came under fire from mortar shells. While workers were forced to find cover, no one was injured, according to the Associated Press. None of the terrorist groups in Gaza took credit for the attack.Aid going into Gaza and getting to those who need it the most has been a constant issue since the war began. Once trucks enter Gaza, they often come under attack from civilians who loot the trucks before getting to their final destination, or members of Hamas take control of the aid and horde it for themselves. Hamas also sells the aid back to civilians at higher costs when it is not meant to be sold. Truck drivers have also been killed by mobs attacking the deliveries. Hamas took credit for attacking the Kerem Shalom border crossing, a vital crossing point for humanitarian aid to enter the southern end of the Gaza Strip. The attacks have resulted in the crossing point being closed for different periods of time, delaying aid going inside.Like Blaze News?

"Real Time" host Bill Maher appeared as a guest on Tuesday's episode of "The View" and offered a powerful argument for Israel's right to defend itself against terror group Hamas.Maher's incisive speech left each of the show's co-hosts speechless — but after several moments of awkward silence, most of them applauded.'Hamas needs to be destroyed because they are a terrorist organization who say openly that they want to commit genocide on the Jewish people, on the state of Israel. That's what 'from the river to the sea' means.'The segment began with a disagreement about how the word "woke" should be used, after which Maher — as he often does — skewered the "super far left" for their un-liberal ideology. Maher then deadpanned, "Don't tell me that the left hasn't changed. I mean, I'm old enough to remember when it was the conservatives who hated the Jews."The quiet from the crowd communicated that they either didn't like — or didn't get — his joke, but Maher made a better point by noting how disturbed he's been, "watching people protest for a terrorist organization like Hamas." Maher soon added that "it's astounding to me" that pro-Palestinian protesters on college campuses "can't tell the good guys from the bad guys. I mean, just morally ... let me tell you, if you're for Hamas, just live in Gaza for a day. And I'm not talking about while the war is on; I mean before the war. Trust me, you would go running and screaming and begging to live in Tel Aviv. A place that has your values."Maher added that "women have no rights" in Gaza or "in a lot of majority-Muslim countries around the world. I mean, there's no equal rights as far as speech, dress, opportunities for education, reproductive rights, freedom from sexual violence, freedom from sexual harassment." He also said that while pro-Palestinian protesters "throw around the word 'apartheid,' there's a gender apartheid in a lot of the world where women are second-class citizens, at best."With that, co-host Sunny Hostin invoked a popular left-wing "what-about-ism," asking Maher if he's at all concerned about "innocent civilians" in Gaza who've been "punished and murdered, largely children and women."Maher soon shot back that "it's a war," and Israel was "attacked, and they're defending themselves." He then asked Hostin if she believes Hamas "needs to be destroyed." She replied, "Yes."Maher then hit "The View" co-hosts with the following argument for Israel's right to defend itself:Hamas needs to be destroyed because they are a terrorist organization who say openly that they want to commit genocide on the Jewish people, on the state of Israel. That's what 'from the river to the sea' means. ... They've attacked Israel five times and started five wars since they were given that land back. They could have chosen to turn [Gaza] into any place they wanted ... and they took a lot of money ... from the international community, and they spent it on bombs and guns and building tunnels. So if they need to be destroyed, how do we do that? It's a war. I don't know how to do that, and you don't know how to do that. ... Here's a way to stop that: Stop attacking Israel.The co-hosts around the table sat in total silence for what seemed like forever — as did the audience — but after the three seconds with no mouths moving, most of the co-hosts applauded, along with the crowd.

There's been a lot of talk lately about Google Search being broken, from its inability to answer relatively simple questions to its insistence on shoving its AI summaries above all of our search results. Google has flooded its search engine with so many features and widgets that you might just lose your mind before you actually find whatever you're looking for. Thankfully, Google itself also introduced a new filter that removes the clutter and just shows you links. On May 14th, Google's Danny Sullivan announced on X that the company added a "Web" filter that would only show text-based links in search results. "We’ve added this after hearing from some that there are times when they’d prefer to just see links to web pages in their search results," he explained, "such as if they’re looking for longer-form text documents, using a device with limited internet access, or those who just prefer text-based results shown separately from search features." For anyone who's overwhelmed by all of the boxes, buttons, and widgets crowding your search results, find and click on the "Web" filter near the top of the page around "News," "Images," and "Videos." You might have to open the "More" menu to find it. As we noted the first time we covered this feature, you have to manually pick it every time if you only want to see text links. At least, that seemed to be the case, but one clever blogger found a way to turn Google's "Web" filter into your default search engine. There are slightly different methods for every browser, but here's how to do it in Chrome: In your Chrome browser, go to Settings > Search engine Next to the "Site search" section, click on the blue "Add" button Pick whatever name and shortcut you want (I used "Google Web Filter" and "gwf") Copy and paste the following URL: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14 Click the three vertical dots next to the new entry and choose "Make default" Here's what it should look like before you add the new search engine to the site search list: Creating a new default search engine in Google Chrome. Image source: Google As long as this search engine is your default, all of your Google searches will suddenly be much simpler and cleaner. While the additional features and widgets can be useful, they often just force me to scroll further for the results I wanted. Now, I have an easy way to avoid them all, and this will probably be my default way to search going forward.
