Key nations, including U.S. allies, have rejected it outright. Saudi Arabia reiterated that it won’t normalize its relations with Israel without the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.Its foreign ministry also opposed Trump’s plan to resettle Gaza’s current residents elsewhere. France’s foreign ministry, opposing the plan, was quoted in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz as saying, “[The plan] would constitute a serious violation of international law, an attack on the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinians,

Federal agencies have been funneling millions to leftist media outlets including The Associated Press, Politico, Reuters, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and CNN, according to public grant disclosures.
These legacy corporations have fashioned themselves the gatekeepers of information to the American public. But ever since 2015, when now-President Donald Trump announced his first campaign — and even earlier — they have spewed lie after lie in an attempt to control the political narrative.

"Canoo, the electric vehicle startup that was promised $100 million in incentives, files for bankruptcy,” read the headline from The Oklahoman in mid-January, angering Oklahoma taxpayers opposed to both tax subsidies and the “green energy” agenda.
It’s one more of the many green energy scams draining the pocketbooks of taxpayers across the nation — think Solyndra and its $570 million bailout.
Canoo began its public-private partnership with Oklahoma in 2021with the state Commerce Department declaring the deal “historic” and Gov. Kevin Stitt gushing about how “thrilled” he was that Oklahoma would become “an innovation leader in electric vehicle technology.”
Little has enraged football fans quite like the most recent AFC Championship game, in which a pair of questionable calls propelled the Kansas City Chiefs to their third straight Super Bowl.(snip)
Now imagine that email was real, and it wasn’t about rigging football games, but congressional elections. That’s exactly what’s going on in Wisconsin, where the state Democrat Party is brazenly using this April’s State Supreme Court race to gerrymander Republican Wisconsin Representatives Bryan Steil and Derrick Van Orden right out of their seats in the 2026 midterms.
With a razor-thin 218-215 GOP majority, this plot could hand Democrats the House and with it the ability to stop President Trump’s
There’s a new video making the rounds, and it’s raising a massive red flag and asking: Did Obama and Eric Holder get paid to rig court cases? That’s the question many are now asking, and the allegations are so serious that Pam Bondi and Kash Patel should take a closer look once they get their offices setup. (snip)This disturbing story centers around a small, relatively unknown innovator who developed some cutting-edge wireless technology—and then had it allegedly stolen by Qualcomm.
When he sued for patent infringement, the court ruled in his favor.
But here’s where things get deeply disturbing and very interesting…
President Donald Trump issued a memorandum Jan. 31 limiting union contracts made under the Biden administration.
The memo, which does not have the force of an executive order, directs all agreements executed in the 30 days before Trump was inaugurated to be deemed invalid.
Trump wrote in the memo that the collective bargaining agreements with federal employees finalized shortly before he took office extended “wasteful and failing policies” of the Biden administration.
Remember when President Trump established the “External Revenue Service?” … It’s all connected and sequential.
Almost everyone will miss, in part because outcomes appear in a sequence that few care to follow, but buried in the Trump tariff Executive Order {SEE HERE} you will discover something. (snip) we will explain:(snip)So, Canada and Mexico get 25% tariffs, but China only 10%. Why? The secret is in that subsection “(h)” when it talks about de minimis treatment. Essentially, what President Trump is doing is levying a much more massive import tax, and possible confiscation impact on the core source of fentanyl (and other illegal) substances.
Health officials in the Kansas City area are warning of a recent outbreak of tuberculosis (TB) cases, prompting an effort from state and local health agencies to stop the spread, according to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE).
The outbreak has killed two people since it started in January 2024, KDHE spokeswoman Jill Bronaugh said. Health officials in Kansas say there is no threat to the general public.
The outbreak has primarily affected Wyandotte County, with a total of 67 active cases reported as of Jan. 24. According to KDHE, 60 of these cases are in Wyandotte County, while the remaining seven are in neighboring Johnson County.
PALM BEACH, Fla. —
President Donald Trump has fired the director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Rohit Chopra, in the latest purge of a Biden administration holdover.
Chopra was one of the more important regulators from the previous Democratic administration who was still on the job since Trump took office on Jan. 20.
During Trump's first term, the Republican had picked Chopra as a Democrat member of the Federal Trade Commission.
Chopra was notified of his firing in an email from the White House, according to a person familiar with the notice who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly

In the wake of the deadly midair collision at Reagan National Airport, it’s important that we reassess our nation’s aviation safety standards. President Trump said on Thursday that safety standards declined under Joe Biden, and let me tell you, he is right.
To illustrate this point, let’s look at his first nominee to lead the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Phil Washington.
During his confirmation hearing, Washington faced significant scrutiny over his lack of knowledge of essential aviation regulations. Washington struggled to provide answers to a series of basic questions that one would expect from someone nominated for the position of FAA administrator.
THE BRONX - Residents in the Bronx voiced their concerns and frustration about a 2,200-bed migrant shelter being proposed without community input.With no vote or opinions from residents, the mayor's Office of Asylum seekers Operations plans to open the shelter as soon as late February.
According to officials, the seven-floor facility will have 24/7 on-site security, as well as an 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew.
What they're saying:
At the heated community board meeting, concerns were raised about prioritizing single men over women and families, potential safety issues and a lack of communication from city officials.

On Thursday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said President Donald Trump is not sophisticated enough in terms of the intelligence community to understand what is happening when they comply with his executive orders. Pelosi said, “We are very proud of Hakeem Jeffries, our leader; he has given us guidance on our priorities of what we’re here to fight for, but also how we counter the Trump administration with litigation in the courts, legislation on the floor of the House, as well as communication and mobilization at the grassroots level.
On Saturday the U.S. Army released the name of the second pilot—reported to have been pilot in command—of the Blackhawk helicopter that collided with American Airlines flight 5342 over the Potomac River, killing 67 people. This was a marked departure from Army policy that states “Names, city, and state of deceased will be withheld until 24 hours after next of kin notification.” This was the standard process used to identify the other two members of the Army’s flight crew, Chief Warrant Officer Andrew Eaves, and Staff Sgt. Ryan O'Hara. It is the same process used to identify soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan—a process I followed as a military
Bishop Mariann Budde, who famously criticized Trump during an inaugural prayer service, has been found to have pocketed a staggering $53 million in taxpayer funds through her organization, Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM).
This bombshell comes as no surprise to those who see through the sanctimonious veneer of left-wing religious leaders who preach compassion while filling their coffers with public money.
Bishop Budde, during an inaugural prayer service at Washington National Cathedral, implored President Trump to show compassion towards vulnerable groups, including illegal aliens and members of the LGBTQ community.
Two members of the House of Representatives Ways and Means Committee decided to create more political theater over the Elon Musk/DOGE audit of the Department of the Treasury payments by crashing a private meeting between House Speaker Mike Johnson, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee Jason Smith (R-MO).
Three guesses which party?
You do the math.
A pair of House Democrats barged into House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office at the Capitol on Wednesday demanding answers on why Elon Musk’s government efficiency team has access to taxpayers’ data.
Reps. Judy Chu of California and Gwen Moore of Wisconsin barreled into the speaker’s office
The Kennedy family’s legacy is being ground into the dirt by its youngest nepo babies, led by Jack Schlossberg, society observers tell The Post.
Recent infighting and President Trump’s electoral win has resulted in barrages of mean-spirited trolling from Schlossberg, 32, leaving the once admired dynasty in crisis, sources say.
While Schlossberg’s grandfather John F. Kennedy stood for public service and diplomacy, his only grandson instead opts for infantile and unhinged outbursts designed to garner likes on social media from his combined 1.3 million social media followers.
Former USAID Administrator Samantha Power, the architect of the “Responsibility to Protect” doctrine (R2P) traveled to CBS HQ in New York for a late-night television appearance with Stephen Colbert. The purpose of Power’s appearance was to defend the institutional interests of her former agency, as USAID comes under scrutiny for ridiculous spending and manipulation of foreign and domestic politics.
Mrs. Power does her very best Sally Stuthers impersonation as she claims the only purpose of USAID is to facilitate charity and life-saving public health in “underserved nations” around the world.
Senate Democrats pushed back a key vote to advance the nomination of Kash Patel on Thursday, forcing consideration of President Trump’s pick to lead the FBI to be postponed until next week. Shortly after convening Thursday morning, Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee moved to place a hold on Patel, with Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) acknowledging that “the minority has exercised their right and my right under the committee rules to hold over the nomination of Kash Patel to lead the FBI.” “This is an unusual nomination, and it’s a 10-year nomination,” said Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), the ranking member on the panel
A colossal explosion in the sky, unleashing energy hundreds of times greater than the Hiroshima bomb. A blinding flash nearly as bright as the sun. Shockwaves powerful enough to flatten everything for miles.
It may sound apocalyptic, but a newly detected asteroid nearly the size of a football field now has a greater than one percent chance of colliding with Earth in about eight years.
Such an impact has the potential for city-level devastation, depending on where it strikes.
Scientists aren't panicking yet, but they are watching closely.

The Banality of Biden

You may have missed the news that a celebrity named Joe Biden has signed up with the powerhouse Hollywood talent flacks at Creative Artists Agency. Worth noting how CAA describes their new client:
“President Biden is one of America’s most respected and influential voices in national and global affairs,” Richard Lovett, co-chair of CAA, said in a statement. “His lifelong commitment to public service is one of unity, optimism, dignity, and possibility,” Mr Lovett said.
It is a sign of Biden’s lifelong mediocrity, in which he has always been a follower and never a “leader” on anything except his own self-regard, that CAA needs to persuade us that Biden
On Thursday, President Donald Trump spoke at the National Prayer Breakfast, an event that has been going on since 1953, which means his Democratic predecessors, Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden, also attended the event. That didn't stop Rep. Jared Huffman (D-CA) from going on his crazy rant about "MAGA Republicans" and "church and state" as he went to protest the event, posting a nearly 90-second video clip of him doing so.
The post also begins by bringing Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) into it, suggesting that this is his prayer breakfast and part of a pattern when it comes to "MAGA Republicans taking a sledgehammer
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will work on upgrading the aviation system, and then fired back at former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton after she weighed in.
“Big News – Talked to the DOGE team. They are going to plug in to help upgrade our aviation system,” Duffy noted in a post on X.
Clinton chimed in, tweeting, “They have no relevant experience. Most of them aren’t old enough to rent a car. And you’re going to let them mess with airline safety that’s already deteriorated on your watch?” (Photos) Duffy fired back at Clinton, the Democrat who lost the 2016 presidential election

Employees of the federal government who have been waffling about whether or not to take the "Fork in the Road" buyout offer from the Trump administration have been given the gift of some breathing room, courtesy of U.S. District Judge George O'Toole, a Clinton appointee.With the midnight Thursday decision deadline looming for millions of federal workers, O'Toole hit the brakes and scheduled a hearing for Monday during which he'll consider blocking the buyout offer altogether.
