concerned the government is siding with russia. i don t think it s siding with russia. but i think there is a question i ll look into if i m elected. helping ukraine with weapons. it s not a simple issue, but it needs to be addressed. i will do it if i m elected. we ll do it in two weeks. brian: in the middle east, it s not beneficial to be at loggerheads with santiagoy wi arabia. we need to say we ll suspend weapons sales if they don t reverse their position. you don t treat an ally the way they are treating us.

is that true? nobody but they themselves in the media and a few people obsessed with npr news every morning or talking about this. no normal people and i m talking about democrats, mainly because say you are a democrat voter living in chicago, do you care more about that, or do you care about the blm summer of hate in which, you know, your neighborhood got torched? dozens of people died. dozens of people died in government buildings got destroyed, cops killed. is that more concerning to you where is this? and i think it reveals out or disconnect. it is a real problem for democrats politicians because of course they have nothing better to sort of counter all of the mayhem s they conspire to. ashley: in the middle east under repeated attacks by iranian backed militia. thankfully no one hurt and the string of attacks that come days after the anniversary of the assassination of iranian
over 600 anti semitic incidents in a one month period, which is more than we have ever seen in a single month period since cst has been doing this work, which is since 1984. there was roughly four times the number of incidents we should have seen in that kind of period. so what is different this time around, why the surge has been so big compared to other spikes when they have been flare ups in the middle east conflict? i think we can t ignore the role of social media in fuelling these spikes every time. perhaps one of the reasons why this spike was so big this time was because social media is just that much more pervasive in society, that much more image based, and unfortunately in lots of different ways, it can drive really extreme positions and attitudes and even drive hate in the off line space because of what people are seeing online. one of the things that was really different and quite worrying this time around was the number of anti semitic incidents reported to us from schools
