Interesting things from the world

Senator Fetterman, on the Colbert show, apparently argued that the nation's best and brightest were not being sent to Washington.   True, Senator, but you of all people probably shouldn't be making that argument, as the voters of Pennsylvania will hopefully catch on at some point, leaving you to do a job more suited to your abilities, say one involving a blue vest.

Students protesting Israel's retaliation against Hamas terrorists hide their identities.  Pro tip, kids; if you have to hide your face to avoid censure for a position you're taking, think twice about what side you're on.  Pro tip #2; the Hamas side's argument really works better in the original German, and it's no accident that Mein Kampf is a popular book in the Gaza Strip.  

Senator Bernie Sanders is arguing that Israel's invasion of the Gaza Strip is a violation of international law because they are cutting off food, water, and electricity to the area.  I guess by that logic, Operation Overlord (the invasion of Normandy) was a war crime against Nazi Germany.  Sorry, Bernie, not buyin' it, and you of all people ought to know the difference here.
