Summary

On this Thursday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid emphasizes how Israel's war with Hamas isn't just on its way to the West, but it's already here, after two Israeli embassy staffers who were about to be engaged were gunned down outside an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC, last night — by a suspect who shouted, “Free, free Palestine” as he was taken into custody. Sid relays a message in response to his Jewish brethren: Be vigilant in the face of evil. Our survival depends on it. In other news of the day, Columbia University interim President Claire Shipman uses her commencement address to defend pro-Hamas lunatic Mahmoud Khalil while she's nearly booed offstage, President Trump's "big, beautiful bill" passes through the House, the President sits down with the South African President in The Oval Office following allegations of white genocide in the country, and the New York Knicks choke away Game 1 of their Eastern Conference Finals series against the Indiana Pacers. Dov Hikind, Joe Benigno, Anthony D'Esposito, Claudia Tenney, Abraham Hamra & Cory Zelnik join Sid on this Friday-eve installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning. Learn more about your ad choices.
