VT: Five hundred years ago, European Christians believed Talmudic Jews murdered Christian children to gather blood. This blood was used in making crackers (matzah).

When the New York Post this week began publishing a series of stories on Hunter Biden, conservatives supporting President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign were openly ecstatic.

On Thursday night, Jimmy Kimmel escalated his feud with NBC over their questionable decision to give in to President Trump’s demands and air a town hall with him at the same time as Joe Biden’s over on ABC.
