Britain’s Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson had private meetings in New York with key advisors to President-elect Donald Trump. Today Johnson is in Washington, D.C., meeting with congressional leaders. Britain wants very much to restore the “special relationship” our two countries have shared in recent decades.
I have numerous friends in the U.K., including current and former government officials. My advice is if the U.K. wants a good relationship with Trump/Pence they should begin by doing everything in their power to prevent further anti-Israel actions at the January 15th European Union meeting in Paris and/or at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).
The UNSC just stabbed Israel in the back on the eve of Chanukah with a resolution denying the legitimacy of Jews living in major parts of Jerusalem. The Obama Administration failed to use our veto to stop that obscene resolution. Just as bad, the U.K. actually voted in favor of it. It was a shameful moment.
In a few days, Donald Trump and Mike Pence will restore a foreign policy that stands with Israel instead of betraying Israel. The United Kingdom should join the new administration in that effort because it is the right thing to do and it will help ensure that the U.S./U.K. relationship will strengthen too.

When you think of Groundhog Day, many people automatically think of the movie and comedian Bill Murray, who relived the same day over and over again.
Well, Joe Biden is having his own Groundhog Day in Washington, forcing us to relive the same failed liberal policies on illegal immigration.
Our friends at Focus on the Family were recently banned by Twitter. What was their offense? According to Twitter, they were promoting "hateful content." But I can assure you that is not true.
As long time readers of this daily report know, I am very familiar with Focus on the Family. Founded by my good friend Dr. James Dobson, Focus has worked for decades to promote strong families and healthy relationships.
After leaving the Reagan White House, I served for a time as a senior vice president of Focus on the Family and as president of the Family Research Council, which was affiliated with Focus. So, I can say with complete confidence that Focus does not promote hate.
No, what got Focus banned from Twitter was that it dared to tell the truth. In a tweet mentioning Dr. Rachel Levin, Joe Biden's nominee to be assistant secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, Focus noted "Dr. Levin is a transgender woman, that is, a man who believes he is a woman."
That is simply a statement of fact. It is the truth. But that truth was deemed "hateful content" by Twitter, which rejected Focus's appeal and has refused to explain how its statement could be appropriately rephrased.
But this is the upside down world of the left, where speaking the truth can often get you banned. Of course, the left and the Big Tech tyrants of tolerance are determined to marginalize Focus, but I encourage them to keep fighting for faith, family and freedom!

Another outrageous example of Twitter's double standards. Kudos to the Media Research Center for exposing the left's bias.
