Francesco Molinari of Italy–the 5-foot, eight-inch-tall 2018 British Open Champion–just now continued his hot streak with his third win in his last twelve PGA Tour tournaments by canning a 45-foot putt on the last hole for a scorching 64 at Bay Hill Golf Course in Orlando, Florida. He came from well behind to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational by two strokes over Matthew Fitzpatrick. I played that tournament either once or twice when they first started it. That sixth hole...

There’s a lot of discussion in this country right now about what is the proper attitude toward Jews, Palestinians, and Muslims. It’s partly because an intelligent, 37-year old, freshman congresswoman named Ms. Ilhan Omar (D-MI), who is Muslim and born in Somalia, recently has been making provocative statements that have been understood as anti-Semitic and anti-Israel. Due to some recent posts I’ve made here on blog about this and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, I’m getting a lot of criticism, esp. on... Read more
The U.S. House of Representatives voted yesterday on a resolution that condemns racial hatred and ethnic bigotry. The resolution gets specific by condemning “hateful expressions of intolerance” toward “African-Americans, Native Americans, and other people of color, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, immigrants and others.” The vote was overwhelmingly in favor of the resolution–407 to 23. In recent days, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had been like a magnificent circus performer juggling of a bunch of balls in the air as she orchestrated... Read more
Ever since Donald Trump’s personal attorney Michael Cohen flipped on him last summer and admitted crimes, for which he is soon going to prison for three years, he appears to be telling the truth. And he knows that he better be. He has a plea bargain with special counsel Robert Mueller and thus with the Justice Department’s Southern District of New York to tell the truth about his dealings with Donald Trump and answer any questions truthfully to both. Furthermore,... Read more
Today, the U.S. House of Representatives in the Congress is scheduled to vote on a resolution to either condemn anti-Semitism, it and Islamaphobia, or to include other racial entities as well or simply racism in general. This issue has been prompted by several allegedly anti-Semitic statements made in recent days by freshman congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MI), one of only two Muslims ever chosen to the U.S. Congress. Pretty, 37-year old Ms. Omar was born in Somalia and moved to the... Read more
Rupert Murdoch is an 87-year old media mogul born in Australia who created and owns Fox News that has had an enormous influence on U.S. politics. During the 1950s and 1960s, as an Australian citizen Rupert Murdoch amassed a newspaper network in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK. In 1974, he moved to the U.S. to do business here. In 1985, he legally skirted U.S. law by giving up his Australian citizenship and obtaining U.S. citizenship in order to own... Read more
Keith Mitchell overcame a bogie-bogie start today by posting four birdies in his last seven holes to win The Honda Classic at West Palm Beach, Florida, by one stroke over top stars Brooks Koepka and Rickie Fowler for his first win on the PGA Tour. It was a dramatic finish. Koepka and Fowler were in the clubhouse with an eight-under par 276 total. Long-hitting Mitchell needed a birdie on the last hole to win and thereby prevent a three-man, sudden-death... Read more
Republican U.S. President Donald Trump has misplaced faith. For example, President Trump said he believed Russian President Vladimir Putin saying at the Helsinki conference last year that Russia did not interfere in the U. S. presidential election in 2016 in order to try to get Trump elected; yet eleven or more U.S. intelligence agencies, which work for the president, concluded from their intense investigations of the matter that the Russian government certainly did so interfere. President Trump says he believes... Read more
Israel’s Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit, an Orthodox Jew, announced today that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will soon be indicated for corruption charges, which will include bribery, after a thorough, two-year investigation. Netanyahu replied like his friend U.S. President Donald Trump has to the special counsel Mueller’s investigation of possible Trump collusion with Russians to win the presidential election–calling it “a witch hunt.” This is ironic because Netanyahu and Mandelblit are friends. In fact, Netanyahu mentored Mandelblit and chose him as... Read more
