He knows. He's just trying to take the heat off Musk.

“It is amazing to see the outpouring of crocodile tears for Jews after Elon Musk flailed his arms yesterday.
The only problem is that we have seen your actions this past year during our darkest time, and we saw Elon Musk's actions.

While you were blocking arms shipments to Israel (yes, you, Chris Van Hollan and Ben Cardin), Elon Musk was visiting Israel and meeting with victims of October 7.

While you were embracing anti-Jewish hate groups on campus and crying when the Iron Dome was funded (yes, you, AOC), Elon Musk was visiting Auschwitz.

While you were blocking the Antisemitism Awareness bill in Congress (yes, you, Nadler, and Schumer), Elon was wearing a Hostage Release Dog Tag and calling for the release of Israeli hostages.

The funny thing about hard times is that you get to see who your true friends are and who uses the "Jewish Cause" for political gain. @elonmusk is a true friend of the Jews.

This is how the Roman salute was portrayed in 18th and 19th century neoclassical art. My understanding is that it isn't historically accurate.

The Roman salute became politicized in the 20th century when it was adopted by fascist movements, most notably in Italy under Benito Mussolini and later by the Nazi Party in Germany. Mussolini’s regime sought to invoke the grandeur of the Roman Empire, using the salute as a symbol of unity, strength, and authority.

Adolf Hitler’s adoption of the gesture further cemented its association with authoritarianism and oppression. The Nazi salute, identical in form, became one of the most infamous symbols of the 20th century, overshadowing its earlier, more benign depictions.

Cultural Shifts and Rejection

In the aftermath of World War II, the Roman salute was universally recognized as a fascist symbol. Its usage was banned in many countries, and any associations with its ancient or artistic origins were largely forgotten. Today, it remains a controversial gesture, often viewed through the lens of its 20th-century history rather than its broader historical context.

Sure, sure - that's why I've been paid to write by dozens of publications for more than 30 years.

What was your profession, other than sad handjobs in the back of your dimwitted dates' cars in the 1950s, again?
Doesn’t take much. I know a guy that writes stuff for the Pittsburgh Steelers that didn’t even know how to make a resume when he was fresh out of school. I’m sure he figured out how to write since then though.
All his publications are opinion based thoughts without much substance and he gets paid to do it.
 
They're truly laughing out loud, moral.
True story: my late father-in-law, RIP, thought LOL meant "lots of love"

So we would get many texts in the early days of iPhones saying things such as "Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but your Aunt Gladys died this morning of a stroke. LOL."
 
And you’re such a renowned and in demand sports journalist you somehow find time to spend on a political talk board?
I must have some sort of gravitas - otherwise you’d just ignore me, right? I’d be beneath notice, correct?
On the other hand I suppose you do have some experience being “washed up”
Bottom line precious- it’s always better to be a has been than a never was. Hugs!
Looks like the douche squad has decided to attack you today.
Seems crazy a group of 4 or 5 are always there to back each other up when someone puts one of them in their place.
Dont worry. I’ve attracted them to my posts now like moths to a light.
