…Israeli anti-government activists clashed with police Monday on the Tel Aviv-Jerusalem highway as they demanded the government resign over its failure to gain the release of hostages held by Hamas for nearly eight months, and clear the way for early elections.
The protesters’ “Day of Disruption” coincided with Monday’s start of the Knesset’s summer assembly following a controversial wartime recess and disagreements over Haredi conscription legislation…

WEEKEND SPEECHES: COMPETING VISIONS OF AMERICA
20 May 2024
For those readers nervous about the presidential debates scheduled for June and September, speeches delivered by President Biden and Defendant Trump over the weekend should assuage your concerns. As always, Joe Biden rose to the occasion. In a commencement speech at Morehouse College in Georgia, Biden delivered appropriate remarks that focused on the graduates and their challenges. Although he recounted struggles and tragedies in his own life, it was by way of example and inspiration rather than self-absorbed narcissism.
It was courageous for Biden to deliver a commencement address when college campuses are roiled by protests over Gaza. Biden addressed the issue head-on in candid remarks that recognized the strong feelings of some students. In the meantime, Trump lied, meandered, and froze his way through a glitch-filled campaign speech in Dallas.
As with the presidential debates, every Biden speech is pitched by the media as a “make or break” event for Biden—even though he continues to hit the ball out of the park. See the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Biden delivers high-stakes commencement address at Morehouse College. As one commentator noted,
“Of the many double standards employed by the media, Biden needing every speech to be some combination of Lincoln and Cicero while Trump’s public appearances are 90 minutes of word salad, non sequiturs, and dictatorial musings that get no push back, is among the worst.”
