This year several European football players complained that UEFA prohibits Russian athletes from participating in the league, but hypocritically allows Israeli athletes to compete. Ireland, Spain, Holland, Iceland, and Slovenia threatened to withdraw from 2026 Eurovision if the Rogue state takes part next year. This weekend in Spain, 100,000 volunteers interrupted and cut short the Grand Prix Bicycle Race because an Israeli team was allowed to compete. In the US, 4,000 filmmakers, actors, and talent have joined a boycott of Israeli film projects. And in NYS, Governor Kathy Hochul finally endorsed NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani. Other prominent (AIPAC) Democrats have yet to endorse their fellow party colleague against Dummkopf Trumpf/AIPAC tool Andrew Cuomo, who turned his back on the Democratic Party which was the lifelong vehicle of his success. Like Judas Iscariot, we hope the disgraced fallen governor enjoys his 30 pieces of silver AIPAC coins. Read more


The nefarious sex offender was worth $600m when he died, but exactly how Jeffery Epstein acquired his fabulous wealth remains a mystery. Between his collection of lavish homes in New York, Palm Beach and Paris, two private Caribbean islands, two jets and helicopter, Epstein held nearly $380m in cash and investments. Epstein's wealth arrived suddenly. According to associates, until the end of the 1990s, Epstein was living in a two-bedroom apartment on Manhattan's Upper East Side close to the river. Steven Hoffenberg, a former business partner of Epstein convicted of running a Ponzi scheme, claimed that Maxwell's father, disgraced press baron and alleged Israeli and Russian spy Robert Maxwell, introduced his daughter Ghislaine to Epstein in the late 1980s. After her arrival Epstein's lifestyle dramatically elevated. He moved to a townhouse on 68th Street and later to a 28,000-sq-ft mansion on 71st Street. Read more

The worst person in the world sent a chilling message at a far-right rally in the UK on Saturday, warning the mob that "violence is coming" and "you either fight back, or you die." Appearing virtually at the far-right "Unite the Kingdom" demonstration in London, Felon Musk made clear he does not foresee peace in the near future. "Whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you," Musk brayed. "You either fight back, or you die. You either fight back, or you die. That's the truth." Tommy Robinson, the far-right maniac who organized Saturday's riot, told Musk, "Today, Elon, I think the British public are telling the world that they're ready to fight back." "Good!' Musk bleated, raising his fists in the air " as the estimated mob of up to 150,000 racists cheered. "Yes!" Read more


The crowd erupted into thunderous applause and chants of "Stephen, Stephen!" when Colbert takes the stage. "I want to thank CBS for giving us the privilege of being part of the late night tradition which I hope continues long after we're no longer doing this show," he says.


Chris Hedges: Martyrs are used by messianic movements to sanctify violence. To show any mercy or understanding toward the enemy is to betray the martyr and the cause the martyr died defending.


European Union leaders on Sunday slammed Moscow for the second violation of EU territory in less than a week after a Russian drone breached Romanian airspace during an attack on southern Ukraine. "Russia's incursion into Romanian airspace is once again a blatant violation of EU sovereignty and a serious threat to regional security," European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said


A.R. Moxon: Whose deaths get to be deemed unacceptable in supremacist America, and whose are deemed necessary? And who does the deeming?

At Trump's behest, throngs of his supporters descended on Washington, DC, to dispute the results of the presidential election, climbing the steps of the Capitol and busting through its doors and windows. Throughout the day, Trump continued to falsely claim that the election was stolen without any evidence to support this unreality, further riling up his followers to "take the country back." By mid-afternoon, the Capitol building was breached and one member of the mob had been shot and fatally wounded. Five people died. In a last-minute video message, Trump told the crowd to go home " then told them he loved them and believes they're "very special." Read more


In his press conference announcing the capture of Charlie Kirk's killer, the F.B.I. director revealed himself. What was left unsaid was that, in this case, perhaps the most impressive act of justice was committed by Robinson's father, who"surely enduring mental tortures I can scarcely comprehend"had helped turn in his son. One of the more bizarre aspects of Patel's short speech was how he sought to take credit for this father's tragic choice. A hallmark of Trumpworld's official rhetoric is the bullet-pointed list of exaggerated accomplishments, making every victory seem total, every soul-scorching occurrence inexorably angled toward the greatness of the Leader. No happening is too solemn, in this world, for a heaping portion of unabashed self-promotion. Read more

Charlie Kirk's alleged shooter Tyler Robinson was living with a transgender partner who was in the process of transitioning from a male to a female, a law enforcement source confirmed to The Post Saturday. That individual, who has yet to be identified by the authorities, is now fully cooperating with the FBI on its investigation into the fatal shooting of the conservative activist, the source added. The relationship was first reported by Fox News' Brooke Singman. Text messages and other communications that the transgender individual traded with Robinson, 22, helped the feds nab the accused assassin.


A while back I put out these rules for the internet. 1. When we disagree, we fight. 2. We have a beer afterward. 3. When we agree, we unite. I got a lot of flack, surprisingly, for the line about the beer. People would ask, "Oh yeah, would you have a beer with Charlie Kirk?!" Well, I did. And I'm glad I did, because now I won't get to. Yes, Charlie and I disagreed a lot and about really important things. But somehow we didn't lose our humanity. We were still fellow Americans.
