Starbucks -- or Starbuhls, as I call it, because that sounds more appropriately retarded -- faces a new round of terrible PR as its union tweets out its solidarity with Palestine's terrorists.
I had an iced coffee from McDonald's the other day. It was good. Better than Starbuhls', and I got change back from a five-dollar bill. I wasn't served by a Politically Extreme Transgender Barristx, alas, but one makes sacrifices for the sake of savings.

Of course: Palestinian terror-linked groups are on Biden's welfare rolls.
Under President Joe Biden, the federal government has dished out hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to Gaza and West Bank-based groups with ties to terror factions, including Hamas, records show.
The grants, which were awarded by the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development, have become increasingly relevant amid the Israel-Gaza conflict beginning last Saturday due to Hamas attacking the Jewish state of Israel. The death toll in Israel has reached 1,300, while at least 27 U.S. citizens have been killed, and 1,500 people in Gaza are dead, according to estimates. Around 20 Americans are also missing, the White House said this week.
"The willful blindness of this administration to what's going on is just extensive," said Marc Greendorfer, an attorney who heads Zachor Legal Institute, a pro-Israel think tank that filed an amicus brief last week urging the Supreme Court to accept a case brought on behalf of Americans injured by Hamas that alleges its foreign fundraising arm is the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, an anti-Israel coalition.
"The Biden administration has been funding all of these radical groups that are fronts for terror," he told the Washington Examiner.
Judge allows defamation lawsuit to proceed against professional defamer and doxxer Taylor Lorenz.
A federal judge ruled Tuesday that a libel lawsuit against former New York Times reporter Taylor Lorenz can proceed.
Ariadna Jacob and her company, Influences, Inc., sued Lorenz and the NYT in 2021 over an article suggesting Jacob had "leaked an individual's nude photograph," according to court documents. U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of New York Edgardo Ramos, an Obama appointee, allowed the lawsuit to proceed Tuesday, finding Lorenz' argument that there is distinction between the word "leaked" as used in the article and the phrase "publically leaked" unpersuasive.
The judge also rejected Taylor Lorenz's argument that she is too elderly for the rigors of a trial. "Many Americans are perfectly capable of participating in a trial, even at your advanced stage of decrepitude," the judge ruled.
The number of Americans killed by Hamas now stands at 30. We don't know how many are being held hostage.
The number of Americans confirmed dead as a result of the war in Israel rose to 30 on Sunday.
"At this time, we can confirm the deaths of 30 U.S. citizens. We extend our deepest condolences to the victims and to the families of all those affected," a spokesperson for the State Department said in a widely reported statement.
The statement also said there were 13 U.S. citizens whose whereabouts were unknown. U.S. officials have been in touch with their families, the statement said, according to multiple reports.
Conservatives swept to power in New Zealand -- rebuking their former leftwing flake autocrat Stronk Empowered Quitter PM -- and Australia defeated an explicitly racist bill that would have essentially made aborignals legally superior to others.
After an election campaign of fits and starts, in which neither major party appeared to offer much solace to a weary nation, voters in New Zealand on Saturday ousted the party once led by Jacinda Ardern and elected the country's most right-wing government in a generation, handing victory to a coalition of two conservative parties.
New Zealand's next prime minister will be Christopher Luxon, a former chief executive of Air New Zealand, whose center-right National Party will lead a coalition with Act, a smaller libertarian party.
Ardern imposed lockdowns the equal of China's and is the embodiment of tyrannical, vicious, violent "compassion."
Also, Scott Peley spins that Biden is getting "no help from the paralyzed Congress" on Israel.
Oh, does Congress have much say in the day-to-day conduct of foreign and military operations? No, it doesn't. It appropriates money, which can be done with or without a permanent speaker. The President is the Chief Foreign Policy Officer of the US. Says so right in the Constitution. The Senate approves treaties, but I don't think we're going to be signing a treaty with Hamas any time in the near future.
And the Senate is not the House, Scott.

More on the latest outrage from the Religion of Terror:
A group of Swedish citizens who traveled to Brussels to see their national soccer team take on Belgium are now the victims of a terrorist attack by a gunman who claimed allegiance to ISIS. Two of the Swedish fans are dead after being shot while traveling in a taxi through the Grand Plaza on their way to King Baudouin Stadium. A third victim is said to be seriously injured.

Witnesses report that the gunman, clad in "a crash helmet and fluorescent jacket" whilst wielding a "Kalashnikov-style" weapon, approached the taxi on a scooter and opened fire, all while shouting, "Allahu Akbar." He apparently also fired on a man in a nearby building, but no other details are available at this time.
No big deal, but two Iranians on the terror watch list were just caught crossing the open US border.
From October 7 -- a while ago now, but just making the rounds -- the Israelis shoot up Hamas speedboats trying to infiltrate terrorists into Israel, and then gently strafe the survivors.
