Fox News: Obama AG rips 'stupid' court order after judge blocks Biden admin's communication with social media companies
Former President Obama's attorney general, Eric Holder, criticized a recent court ruling that limits the Biden administration's communication with social media companies. The ruling aims to prevent government efforts to suppress free speech, particularly regarding false information about the coronavirus pandemic. The preliminary injunction allows communication with social media companies on issues involving criminal activity, national security threats, and attempts to influence elections.
The order, signed by U.S. District Judge Terry A. Doughty, restricts certain Biden administration officials from communicating with social media companies to pressure the removal of protected free speech content. It specifically names high-ranking officials, such as HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra and White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. The lawsuit behind the ruling accuses the Biden administration of colluding with social media companies to suppress certain viewpoints under the pretext of combating disinformation.

Flag And Cross: Critics Miss Main Conclusion In Jenin Operation
Critics say the operation in Jenin doesn't solve terrorism. However, it shows the risks of pressuring Israel to accept a Palestinian state. Jenin is controlled by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad with Iranian funding. Israeli forces can still enter Jenin, but their efforts only provide temporary relief. The increase in attacks on Jews is often blamed on Jewish settlements and reprisal attacks. Washington's boycott of Israeli institutions in Judea and Samaria fuels violence. Creating a Palestinian state in Jenin would replicate the dangerous situation in Gaza and make Israel's security dilemma worse.

There are doubts about the need for such a large and expensive warship, especially in a threat environment where China's maritime strength is growing.
