Look, as much as I think Juneteenth as a national holiday of dubious provenance pushed into the national consciousness simply because of white guilt during the summer of George Floyd, I would have given a pretty penny to attend the concert to commemorate the holiday at the White House on...

A.F. Branco Cartoon—Stalin would be envious of the Biden presidency and his lawfare efforts against his political opponents. “Show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime.” A Stalinist-type approach is more than obvious here. Dershowitz: It’s a Day After the Ruling and I Still Don’t Know What the Crime Is – Merchan Took This a Step Further than Stalin By Jim Hoft – June 1, 2024 Harvard law professor and author Alan Dershowitz weighed in on the Trump convictions by a corrupt court, a biased jury, and and criminal judge on Thursday. Dershowitz pointed out what all of us are wondering – we still don’t know the crime President Trump allegedly committed. As the Democrat operatives’ case against President Trump wound down last week the prosecution still had not defined the alleged criminal act that President Trump allegedly committed. But it didn’t matter. The court was ready to find Trump guilty and send him to prison. READ MORE…   DONATE to A.F.

On Monday, author and TV host Mark Levin blistered critics of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, taking on President Biden and his anti-Israel regime, Biden’s Democratic Party, and the legacy media, as well as the few Republicans who have taken sides against the prime minister. Writing on Twitter, Levin started, “I am fed up with these attacks on Benjamin Netanyahu by the Biden regime, the Democrat Party, and the American Al Jazeera media. I am fed up with the attacks from certain Republican operatives, who are trying to make a buck off the Arab countries, such as Qatar and others.” After praising Netanyahu for his leadership in the face of his enemies, both foreign and domestic, Levin continued: “We have never, ever seen the kind of organized international campaign, headquartered in our Oval Office and State Department, and including NGOs and Democrat Party donors, target any ally head of state as we are witnessing today. It is disgusting. It is appalling.” “And the demands that Netanyahu abandon his country’s sovereignty and well-being at the say-so of the Biden regime and its surrogates is unconscionable. Biden continues to send (Secretary of State Antony) Blinken and (National Security Advisor Jake) Sullivan to Israel to plot against its government.” “He has put relentless pressure on Israel to effectively surrender to the terrorists who surround it,” Levin noted. “He has told Israel it must not defeat Hamas (what is victory, they ask!), they must not attack Hezbollah (which is constantly firing rockets and drones into Israel, attacking its people and infrastructure), he is using the UN and foreign governments to pressure Israel, and he has stated over and over again that after Israel surrenders to it all, he will force upon Israel a final solution, which Biden calls a two-state solution, requiring Israel to abandon 30% of its country (its ancestral homeland in Judea and Samaria) to the very people who are trying to annihilate it, making it impossible for Israel to defend itself.” Levin asserted that Netanyahu refuses to bow to Biden because he knows “this would ultimately destroy Israel.” Then Levin turned to Israel’s deadly enemy Iran and Biden’s part in helping Iran against Israel: “He (Netanyahu) is leading his country in an incredibly successful war started by Iran and its surrogate, Hamas, and funded by the Biden regime, which has enabled Iran to rebuild its economy, rearm itself and its terrorist puppets, and virtually complete its nuclear program. In fact, it is Biden who has undermined Israel’s efforts, prolonged the war and increased casualties, including the deaths of brave IDF soldiers (Biden never mentions them).” “The Biden regime’s actions and public statements, as well as its diplomacy and coordination with a supportive media, have resulted in the spread of Jew-hatred not only in the United States, but throughout the world, the likes of which we have never seen in our own country and is reminiscent of the 1930s in Europe. And Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and the rest of Terrorism, Inc., are more emboldened than ever. “ “Millions of us, patriotic Americans, Jew and Gentile alike, stand with Benjamin Netanyahu and the state of Israel,” Levin declared. “There is a reason both are extremely popular and supported in the United States, despite all the saboteurs, haters, and self-aggrandizers. And we will not be moved. We know good from evil. We know right from wrong. We know that those who hate Israel hate us, both here at home and abroad. We know that the attacks on Netanyahu are intended as attacks on Israel.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “We want terrorism and terrorists destroyed, period, as we have suffered from horrendous acts of terrorism and may well in the future,” he wrote. “We know that Israel is fighting not just for its own survival but for us and our country too. The Islamists tell us again and again, openly, in writing, in speeches, with mission statements, and acts of terrorism, that they intend to destroy we, the people of the United States and, in fact, the entire western world. We have no patience for those who undermine Israel so they can profit from appeasing the Arab countries.” “We admire Netanyahu and the Israeli people. And we also know that the war on Netanyahu is led by those who wish Israel ill. The self-appointed elitists in and out of our government, as well as those in foreign capitals around the world, do not represent us. Indeed, they hate us. But we will not be fooled, silenced, or intimidated by any of them or any of this. We stand with Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu,” he concluded. WE STAND WITH ISRAEL AND BENJAMIN NETANYAHU I am fed up with these attacks on Benjamin Netanyahu by the Biden regime, the Democrat Party, and the American Al Jazeera media. I am fed up with the attacks from certain Republican operatives, who are trying to make a buck off the… — Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) June 10, 2024

Aaron James is a lineman. He is the savior we pray for during an electrical outage and the hero we worship when the power returns. It is a dangerous job. He served with the Army National Guard in Kuwait, Egypt, and Iraq and is no stranger to danger. On a fateful day in June 2021, Aaron James was working to transfer lines from one pole to another in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He touched a live wire. As much as 7,500 volts of electricity shot through his body. The results were devastating. Some images we are including and those in the video below might seem graphic and may be alarming. The good news is that Aaron James has undergone an innovative medical procedure. With the support of his family and friends and an excellent medical crew, he is on the way to recovery. The family credits their ability to maintain a good sense of humor for mental health during Aaron’s recovery. His wife, Meagan, and daughter, Allie, have been by his side throughout the ordeal. Aaron said during an interview with People, “Every day we would laugh about something. We’ve had to have a pretty good sense of humor through this whole thing. That’s really what’s got us through all this.” Image from YouTube. Aaron’s injuries include the loss of his left arm above the elbow and damage to his face, including the loss of his lips, nose, left eye, and front teeth. His chin was gone down to the bone, and he also lost 20 percent of his tongue. He doesn’t remember any of the accident, which is fortunate. He remembers working that day and then waking up in the hospital six weeks later. Aaron James’ Surgery Is A Breakthrough Case In the first-ever human eye transplant, Aaron has a new lease on life. The lead physician is Dr. Edwardo D. Rodriguez, MD, DDS, who worked with a team of 140 surgeons, nurses, and specialists. Tissue donations came from a single donor in his 30s who also donated to three other recipients. The surgery at NYU Langone Health is the only successful transplant like this (so far). Image from YouTube. The initial surgery took 21 hours. When discussing the surgery with CBS News, Aaron said, “It just blows my mind. I tell everybody, if I get close to a mirror, I just stare at it. … Now I want to go outside and let people see me, you know?” Aaron was hesitant to be seen in public without a mask before the surgery but loves being outside now. While sight is not fully restored in the new eye, doctors have noted good blood flow and the response of light receptors to stimuli. That is a good sign that the eye transplant was successful. Though it is doubtful that Aaron will ever regain full sight in that eye, the team is hopeful for continuing improvement.
