So Karine Jean Pierre decides to re-explain why an attack on Israel is actually about hate against everyone else....

Every week has so many big news stories now (and not fake "trump lied" or "walls are closing in") it's hard to pick a biggest. But here's another one:
The FBI maintained more than 40 confidential human sources on various criminal matters related to the Biden family, including Joe Biden, dating back to his time as vice president, according to information obtained by Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa.
The confidential human sources "provided criminal information to the FBI relating to Joe Biden, James Biden, and Hunter Biden." Those confidential human sources were managed by multiple FBI field offices across the nation, including the FBI’s Seattle Field Office.
But Grassley learned that an FBI task force within the Washington Field Office sought…
