Haley: Flawed Don is still the better choice

In the Wall Street Journal, Nikki Haley — who ran against Donald Trump in this year's Republican presidential primary — reminds voters that Tuesday's election is “not a referendum.” himbut a “choice between him and Kamala Harris.” She doesn't agree with Trump “100% of the time,” but she shares his views “most of the time” — but never Kamala Harris's. “No politician does everything right,” Haley notes. But “for those of us who are clear-eyed enough to see Mr. Trump’s flaws and honest enough to acknowledge them, the question is whether we are better off with his policies or those of his opponent.” In the areas Taxes, spending, inflation, immigration, energy and national security, the candidates are miles apart.” And “Trump is clearly the better choice.”

From right: Trump is the clear choice for Jews

“Recent polls show former President Donald Trump is at an all-time high among American Jews,” and the reasons are clear, explain Max Eden and Josh Hammer of the Washington Examiner. Kamala Harris “did not explicitly deny the anti-Semitic protesters who overran college campuses last year.” She considered “choosing Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA) as her running mate,” but relented when “the far left folded overthrew him because he served in the Israel Defense Forces. Also: “Trump’s support among Orthodox Jews is breathtaking. They “know there is a massive push from the far left to pack the Supreme Court,” which could restrict religious freedom. “If your North Star is combating anti-Semitism and securing the future of the Jewish people, this really shouldn’t be a choice.”

Libertarian: A CNN Misinformation Moment

“When mainstream Democrats express clearly false statements, they rarely attract the label of misinformation,” Reason’s Robby Soave argues. This “was perfectly illustrated during a CNN discussion on Sunday” when “Maria Cardona, a Democratic strategist,” claimed that the Charlottesville march was “spurred and inspired by the words that came out of the former president's mouth.” and then claimed, when questioned, that Trump “went out and said both sides are good people.” “These claims,” Soave notes, “are patently false.” “Trump's rhetoric didn't do it Caused a group of white nationalists who organized the rally, and he “said that neo-Nazis and white nationalists 'should be totally condemned.'” Figures.” And Cardona spread her disinformation at a panel discussion about “how vicious lies told by right-wing actors spread, “undermining trust in US democracy.”

Eye on Britain: Finally a real leader

Kemi Badenoch is “the first black person to ever lead a major party in Britain.” And the left is not happy,” enthuses Spiked’s Brendan O’Neill. “Kemi could be the culture warrior we’ve been waiting for,” ready to “take on” Wokists who have thrown “biological truth” and “our very own national story” onto their campfire of vanities. “She championed the right of young gay men to explore their sexuality without being pumped full of puberty-blocking drugs or undergoing surgery to 'correct' their 'wrong' bodies.” “She has rejected Britain's fashion view as 'institutional.' racist' questioned.” She stands on Israel's side. “Will she fight the culture war with the necessary clarity and determination? That remains to be seen. But I wish her good luck.”

Retirement Overrun: Biden-Harris Imperil Pensions

Under a new Labor Department rule, pension and retirement plan managers can “invest your money without your consent to further the plan managers' political, social or ideological goals,” complains The Hill's David R. Burton. But raising its “progressive and social goals” guarantees “lower returns and reduced retirement income for plan beneficiaries.” To “reverse the politicization of these retirement plans,” both the House and Senate passed “resolutions of disapproval.” Congress has long made clear its intent “that ERISA retirement plans be administered by fiduciaries solely for the benefit of retirees.” Let's hope the courts will enforce Congress' intent.
