An Israeli strike on the densely populated Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza caused many casualties, officials in the enclave said Tuesday.
The Hamas-controlled Ministry of Interior in Gaza reported that “20 homes were completely destroyed in the Israeli bombing that targeted a residential neighbourhood in Jabalya.”
The director of Gaza’s Indonesian hospital, Dr. Atef al-Kahlout, told CNN that “hundreds” of dead and injured people arrived at the hospital and “many are still under the rubble.” Israel Defense Forces spokesman Lt. Col. Richard Hecht confirmed to CNN that the Israeli military had launched the strike, and said it was targeting a senior commander from the Hamas militant group.

FBI director Christopher Wray testified Tuesday that antisemitic threats are “reaching historic levels” across the U.S. in the wake of Hamas’s attack on Israel.
“I will say that this is a threat that is reaching in some ways sort of historic levels, in part because, as you know all too well, the Jewish community is targeted by terrorists really across the spectrum,” Wray said before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. “In fact, our statistics would indicate that for a group that represents only about 2.4 percent of the American public, they account for something like 60 percent of all religious-faith hate crimes.”

The head of the FBI warned the threat of a terrorist attack within the United States was an extreme concern for the U.S. government and has reached a heightened level since the Israel-Hamas war.
FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Tuesday that Hamas's attack on Israel in October "will serve as an inspiration the likes of which we haven’t seen since ISIS launched its so-called caliphate years." "The terrorism threat has been elevated throughout 2023. But the ongoing war in the Middle East has raised the threat of an attack against Americans in the United States to a

The Democratic Party is facing a crisis of identity. After Hamas invaded Israel on October 7th, killing well over a thousand people, including many women and children in the most brutal ways, the far-left found itself with a decision to make. Would it apply some nuance to the situation, or would it fall into its default of openly supporting Hamas?
Unsurprisingly, they chose door number two, with massive pro-Hamas protests breaking out across the country, many of which have included genocidal language against Jews. That has left the most vocal segment of the Democratic Party in conflict with the President of the United States.

A man was found dead in a bathroom at a popular Colorado amusement park surrounded by explosives, guns, and ammunition, police said Monday.
Authorities are investigating whether 20-year-old Diego Medina took his own life instead of launching an attack "of devastating proportions." Medina is believed to have broken into Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park while it was closed, where police say he was armed with an AR-style rifle, a handgun, and explosives, some of which proved later to be fake.
"While this investigation is still ongoing and very active, it is important to realize that given the amount of weaponry

On Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” Israeli Government Spokesman Eylon Levy reacted to calls for humanitarian pauses by Israel by pointing out that, according to reporting by The New York Times, Hamas has ample supplies of fuel and other supplies for itself and calling on those pushing for a pause to demand Hamas release its own fuel.
Host Andrea Mitchell asked if Israel is concerned about the White House getting frustrated over the humanitarian situation in Gaza. Levy said that Israel welcomes “the very solid support that we have received from President Biden, his moral clarity and material support as well, in explaining

Former President Donald Trump responded to the new gag order recently placed on him by U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, calling it an “unthinkable” assault on his First Amendment rights.
On Sunday, Chutkan, who has been overseeing the case regarding Trump’s alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election in Washington, DC, reinstated a narrow version of the gag order that would bar the former president from making “public comments targeting prosecutors, court staff and potential witnesses,” according to the Associated Press.
The outlet noted:
U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is presiding over the federal case charging Trump with plotting to overturn the results of the 2020 election, had temporarily

I am old enough to remember when conservatives decried “cancel culture” and the Left scoffed.
It wasn’t “cancel culture.” It was about holding people accountable.
You could use the wrong pronouns and lose your job because transphobia is literal genocide. Riley Gaines gives a speech at a university and is held hostage for hours, assaulted, and driven off campus the university administration expressed pride in the behavior of the students, not Gaines’ bravery. Professors could have their jobs threatened for discussing Halloween costumes, and they deserved it for being insensitive. Dissent from the orthodoxy that men belong in women’s sports or women’s prisons

“This machine cannot be stopped,” declared Israeli defense minister Yoav Gallant earlier today. At the very least, Israel will not stop the IDF, now fully unleashed in Gaza, short of total victory. Instead, Gallant offered Hamas a different deal, which sounds remarkably like Hamas’ true ‘offer’ to the Israelis.
“Die or surrender” sums both up nicely, no? This is the same ‘deal’ that Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran have offered Israel for decades. It’s the same deal that the other Arab nations offered between 1947 and roughly 1979, too. For the last sixteen years, Israel has hoped that withdrawal from Gaza might moderate those enemies similarly as Egypt and Jordan moderated

Former President Donald Trump now leads his nearest Republican rivals by nearly 30 points in Iowa, with two-thirds of likely GOP caucusgoers dismissing the severity of his legal challenges, according to the second conducted by J. Ann Selzer.
The survey also finds former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley moving up to a tie for second place with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, both of whom remain popular with Iowa Republicans ahead of the Jan. 15 GOP caucuses.
Yet the poll shows Trump’s supporters are more enthusiastic and locked into their choice than Haley’s and DeSantis’ backers are, even as likely Republican caucusgoers are divided

The United Auto Workers (UAW) will end its strike against the Big Three as the labor union has reportedly reached a tentative agreement with General Motors (GM). The UAW had, in the last few days, reached similar deals with Ford and Stellantis.
On Monday morning, reports circulated that the UAW had reached a deal with GM. According to details available, the deal mimics many components of the union’s deal with Ford, where base wages will increase 25 percent through April 2028.
Likewise, the deal reinstates benefits that GM’s auto workers have not enjoyed since the Great Recession, such as cost-of-living allowances, a three-year wage progression, and an elimination of wage tiers

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised the Israel Defense Force (IDF) and Shin Bet, the country’s internal security services, for rescuing Monday a female soldier who was kidnapped by Hamas during the Palestinian terror organization’s unprecedented attack on the Jewish state earlier this month.
“Last night, our forces liberated Pvt. Ori Megidish from Hamas captivity. Ori was abducted on the black morning of October 7th. Welcome home Ori!” Netanyahu said in a statement. “I commend the ISA and the IDF for this important and moving achievement, which expresses our commitment to bring about the release of all the hostages,” the prime minister added.
Netanyahu also reaffirmed the IDF’s commitment to destroying Hamas,
