Thursday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Fox & Friends,”  Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reacted to a joke from Michael Che, the co-anchor of “Weekend Update” on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live,” casting aspersions on the Israeli government’s COVID-19 vaccination policy. “Israel is reporting that they’ve vaccinated half of their population, and I’m going to guess it’s the Jewish half,” Che said during Saturday’s broadcast. “That’s outrageous,” Netanyahu said. “That’s so outrageous. In fact, I brought vaccines, and went especially to the Arab communities, the Arab citizens of Israel, and vaccinated as many as we can. I must have gone to half a dozen Arab communities already, talked with the mayors there, brought the leaders, brought the doctors there, Arab doctors.” “This is just outrageous,” Netanyahu continued. “It’s so false. And the interesting thing is, you know, not accidentally, many, many Arab citizens are voting for me because — not only because I brought … [Read more...] about Netanyahu: SNL Michael Che’s Claim Israel Vaccinated Only ‘Jewish Half’ of Population ‘Outrageous’

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Rookie LaMelo Ball has seized the attention of the NBA this season with his highlight reel passes and a surprising ability to score the basketball, including Charlotte Hornets owner Michael Jordan. The six-time NBA champion said when the Hornets selected Ball with the No. 3 overall pick they hoped the crafty 6-foot-6 point guard would eventually rise to the level of becoming an All-Star. Jordan likes the way Ball is trending. “I think Melo has adjusted to the NBA game better than any of us ever thought this early in his career,” Jordan told The Associated Press in an email. “He has exceeded our expectations so far this season.” Ball leads all rookies in most statistical categories, including points (15.8), assists (6.3), rebounds (6) and steals (1.6) per game. More importantly, Ball’s game — which includes an array of slick, needle-threading passes — has brought some needed pizzazz and star potential to a franchise mired in obscurity for years. The … [Read more...] about Michael Jordan: LaMelo Ball has “exceeded our expectations”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that a recent monologue by Saturday Night Live (SNL) comedian Michael Che, in which he joked that Israel is only providing the COVID-19 vaccine to Jewish people, was “outrageous.” WATCH: “That’s outrageous,” Netanyahu told “Fox & Friends.” “That’s so outrageous. In fact, I brought vaccines and went especially to the Arab communities, the Arab citizens of Israel and vaccinated as many as we can. I must’ve gone to a half a dozen Arab communities already,  talked to the mayors, brought the leaders there, brought the doctors there, Arab doctors: This is just outrageous.” Che suggested in February that “Israel is reporting that they’ve vaccinated half of their population.

Michael Porter Jr.’s primal scream rang all the way to Denver on Thursday night. When Jamal Murray elevated for a fourth-quarter jam — a sequence which started when Porter blocked a Pacers shot off the backboard — it was a perfect example of the joy the Nuggets have found over their last four games. They closed the first half of the season with a 113-103 win over the Pacers on Thursday night to extend their winning streak to four and improve to 21-15 on the season. Because of the All-Star break, they won’t play again until next Friday at Memphis. No matter. They can carry the good vibes into their first extended break of the season. Porter poured in 24 points and 11 rebounds, marking his fifth double-double in his last six games. His five 3-pointers helped ease the scoring burden on Denver’s other two stars. Murray had 21 points, including two seismic breakaway jams, and Nikola Jokic finished with 20  points, 12 rebounds and eight assists. He also had seven of Denver’s 19 … [Read more...] about Michael Porter Jr., Nuggets ride four-game winning streak into break with win over Pacers

Representative Michael Waltz (R-FL) said Thursday on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends” that President Joe Biden saying lifting mask mandates was “Neanderthal thinking” is “calling us stupid.” When asked about Texas and Mississippi lifting restrictions, Biden said, “We’ve been able to move that all the way up to the end of May to have enough for every American, to get every adult American to get a shot. The last thing we need is the Neanderthal thinking.” Waltz said, “Let me tell you what Neanderthal thinking is. Neanderthal thinking is keeping our schools closed, letting our kids fall further and further behind. Maybe Neanderthal thinking is letting restaurants put people in tents while they’re sitting outside, but they can’t let them inside or not putting seniors first when it comes to our vaccines. I don’t know what Neanderthal thought it was a good idea to allow infected seniors back into nursing homes when it was clearly the most exposed and vulnerable population?” He … [Read more...] about GOP Rep.
