Unfortunately, I often only have a short time in the early morning each day to post stories on this blog. Given the pressures of classes, litigation, and traveling, I will often miss typos or automatically “corrected” words that are errors. I apologize for those errors, but we have no staff or copy editors on this blog. We welcome any suggested corrections. Thanks again for your help and your understanding.
Professor,
Today’s article on Antifa needs a correction. You cite Wray as debunking Goldman’s claim that Antifa is not an organization.
However, Wray back in 2020 explicitly agreed with that Antifa is an ideology, not an organization.

Please correct the article.
Professor Turley,
Today, you misquoted Section 527. Please correct this error.
This provision permits two classes of people to visit a DHS facility (1) “a Member of Congress” and (2) “an employee of the United States House of Representatives or the United States Senate designated by such a Member for the purposes of this section.”
Subsection (b) states that: “Nothing in this section may be construed to require a Member of Congress to provide prior notice of the intent to enter a facility . . . for the purpose of conducting oversight.”
Further, Subsection (c) states that, “WITH RESPECT TO INDIVIDUALS DESCRIBED IN SUBSECTION (a)(2), the Department of Homeland Security may require that a request be made at least 24 hours in advance of intent to enter a facility described in subsection (a).”
Thus, the prior notice option does not apply to a member of Congress, and further, if the purpose of the visit is conducting oversight, subsection (c) in entirely inapplicable.

The most recent article on Iran states: “Obama also defied the War Powers resolution on Syria. He actually did ask for congressional authorization to take military action in that country in 2013, but Congress refused to approve it. He did it anyway. Despite Congress expressly denying “authorization for the introduction of United States Armed Forces,” both Obama and Trump did precisely that.”
This is not accurate; Obama chose *not* to strike Syria, and was heavily criticized at the time for this.
On the space of free speech I have now been censored 3 times in about as many weeks. Yet, I make effort to use protected speech. am I banned or did I infringe on your unprotected speech content criteria?
I use references to males and females in my last censored comment of this afternoon in a scientific context, therefore the use of the terms “males” and “females” are for the scientific context, although I might have some misogynistic traits, it comes from abuse. My development did not believe it necessary to quote scientific papers as these notions have been discussed often in the past and have not changed.; Females are more risk averse than females in all situations, and this no matter how heroically they are presented in western media.
Democracy is a risky venture and prominent feminists have argued that democracy is an illusion and the multi party, bi-party democracies should give place to a commonality, a 1 party system.
Jonathan himself has pointed out a few times that the left is fascist, not the right. I think both sides express fascist tendencies, and I fear, reasonably, purges from the Kamala administration but maybe some from the Trump administration also. It’s why I’m not voting for anyone this year.
Feminism is a political theory, which effectively increasingly is perceived, in my case, as a Religion. Yet the Courts have not declared or acknowledge feminism as a religion yet, as it’s being built into government and would be an impediment to do so. I guess they are waiting for the New Constitution for this change. If it’s not a religion, but a political theory, criticizing it is my free speech privilege. If you don’t want commenters to criticize feminism on this website, it is also your privilege, add it to your criteria, be clear and honest about it.
Where was my text infringing on your criteria?
The “5 Eye Nation” is a political truth, it is openly discussed by our governments and even was recently introduced, to the politically naive audience, on CBS’s 60 minutes, therefore it was not the result of a conspiracy theorist’s imagination and paranoia..
Will I fall as on mostly all platforms where female moderators explain tome: You can read, but you can,t talk… that is the limit of my participation. Effectively, feminist want me to read them, frequent their blogs, it’s the way they become millionaires, my shear presence is worth a lot. But if I’m banned from commenting, just tell me. Otherwise point to me where I infringed on your policies… or have these become arbitrary?
Am I being censored for content I express on other platforms… this would mimic the techniques of Big Tech and Government, which Jonathan greatly disapprove of… at least it’s what he expresses on this website and on his media presence.
I am puzzled, if I am banned from commenting, just say so…
This is not a correction on Master Turley’s work, it’s my own correction on my comment of this morning on the article La Ultima Cena “Olympic “Christ” Threatens to Sue Critics Over “Last Supper” Backlash”. I often have to fight against my own keyboard so many hackers prevent me from expressing my thoughts on the internet. Here is the comment as it should have appeared (it’s a lot clearer):
“I guess we’re in a strenuous intellectual relationship this week. It’ something to be Christian and Conservative…it’s another one to be hypocrite, delusional or both. Are we set to go back to periods where we will pretend to only have sex to procreate once year in ones 20s or 30s, and then we all walk with chastity belts. The “Ménage à Trois” you are refereeing to should be a wink to anybody who has a bit of culture. It’s about Alfred de Musset, George Sand and Frédéric Chopin who were publicly known to have had a long standing relationship of that nature with George Sand being a female Transvestites, spend much of her time wearing men’s clothes in all her public appearances and in private, even designing fake mustachios on her face.. There was no secret in the upper society or within the “people” about their social life. Will we start boycotting Chopin’s music for this? Alfred de Musset was one of the best literary dramatist of his age, George Sand is usually studied in every University literary program, maybe except in Christian universities, I don’t know. If current Christians lack the proper culture to view cultural events, maybe they should decide not to assist simply, instead of dictating, compelling speech. This idea that all 12 expressions of French culture should have reflected Christian values in history in a clear perceivable manner to all the Christian audience is ridiculous. There was a beautiful choreography celebrating the rebuilding of the Notre-Dame Cathedral, going from the hands of the stone carvers skills from 1200 years ago to dancers hanging between earth and heavens dressed in colors of Earth and Sky to remind how the building of those masterpieces which found its way through the Free Masons produced monuments which defied gravity to celebrate an authority which hung over all of us… Did every single one of the themes had to celebrate only Christianity. Christianity’s Cena, which depicts 13 Jews around a table, was inspired by Roman Culture of the time, found it’s source in the Aesthetics of the time, when much of the population were not Christians but had a mythology of infinite Gods each representing intuitions about human nature, it origins and compositions, it is normal that you have overlapping symbols, why be shocked and outraged instead of taking opportunity to learn. Vinci was the Master Genius of his time, but the period was vast in production repeating with variations identical themes all with their classical inspiration. The 12 apostles in their own character traits are a composition of Roman and Greek deities but described at a human scale… Christianity encompasses mythological sources from the Romans, Greeks, Egyptians and East Indian Mythologies and beliefs. Christianity, outside of the Bible, but in its sacred text, is populated by all kinds of creatures, thousands of Good and Bad angels, many bi-sexed (transgendered) creatures such a the Cherubim. If your whole Cultural experience limits itself to the doctrinal reading of the 4 Gospels and we should adapt all our life experience to your limitations. (They are 54 gospels, only 4 made their way to the Bible, and the 54 are still all studied by the l’École Biblique de Jérusalem, one of the leading authority in Christian texts and knowledge). The painting which inspired the controversial scene is a wedding of the Gods and the Crowning of Olympe, with Bacchus in the forefront, not Dionysus, Bacchus is the Roman adaptation of the demigod of wine and festivity.
But should we ask what goes on at the Christian Conservative Toga Parties behind back doors where it is apparently not accepted to wear anything under the Toga…
If one is to limit his experience to the 4 Gospels, than he should use Jefferson’s Bible.”
Thank you
