With a somber Passover approaching, I remain committed to speaking about this travesty and acknowledge there can't be true lasting peace until the hostages are home.

We must never forget Hamas owns this entire catastrophe and can end this.

Send them all home and surrender.

Yesterday, The Atlantic published my piece on October 7 rape denialism ... and there are a few points I want to highlight.

Thanks to Speaker Mike Johnson’s leadership & his policy team’s effort, the MAHSA Act has made into the 🇮🇱-🇺🇦 aid package. Keeping 🇮🇷’s Supremeleader & his inner circle under strict sanctions is an integral piece to helping 🇮🇱 & 🇺🇦.

Yesterday Hamas revised the total killed in Gaza from 33,000 to 22,000.

At least 13,000 of them are confirmed terrorists. So 9,000 civilians at most.

Every civilian death is a tragedy, but the ratio of 1.5 terrorists for each civilian is better than any war in modern history.

As Tehran brazenly attacked Israel last weekend, its thugs ratcheted up their attacks on hijab-less women throughout the country. Since 1979, there's been a direct and indisputable relationship between the regime's expressions of misogyny and antisemitism.

Iran's regime has been antisemitic since its inception, which is why the people of Iran have become pro-Israel. Here's a short history of that correlation:

Iranian women are begging you to listen to them. Israeli women are begging you to listen to them.

This is not a game.
