VIDEO: Comedian Jon Lovitz slammed a group of anti-Israel agitators from the "Queers for Palestine" group for their "insane" demonstrations after they were arrested for blocking traffic on a Florida freeway near Walt Disney World over the weekend.

DOUBLING DOWN: Embattled Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., a member of the far-left "Squad," recently defended a phrase widely viewed as antisemitic that calls for the "extermination" of Jews. Bowman said he does "not" think the controversial phrase "from the river to the sea" amounts to hate speech.

LIFE AND DEATH: In a dramatic shift, the UN has revised its data pertaining to the number of Palestinian casualties in the seven-month-old Gaza war, reducing almost by half the number of women and children it previously said were killed in the hostilities between Israel and the Iranian-backed terror group Hamas.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK: "If Harvard wanted to change, if they wanted to combat antisemitism, they would’ve done it already…but time and time again, they’ve shown they are either unable or unwilling to do anything to help their Jewish students," Harvard Divinity School student Shabbos Kestenbaum.
