President Donald Trump told the New York Times over the weekend that President Xi Jinping of China and Russian leader Vladimir Putin helped him to secure a peace deal with Iran to end the war.

"What he didn't mention: the State Dept. has imposed sanctions on companies for sending Chinese arms to Iran. And Russia has given intelligence aid to Iran," Wong wrote, while sharing the report on social media.

The Democrats' disquieting quest for power at the cost of our democratic principles cannot credibly be denied or rebutted by inapt whataboutisms. During the 40 years from John Kennedy's inauguration in 1961, four Republicans served a total of 22 years as president and a like number of Democrats served for 18 years. Democrats dominated other elective offices, however, controlling the Senate for 28 years, the House for 34 years, and adjusting for time in office, governorships by 57% to 43%, and state legislatures by 73% to 27%. Then, the pendulum swung. For the last 25 years, Republicans (13 years) and Democrats (12 years) each elected two presidents, and Republicans gained control of the Senate for 13 years, the House for 17 years, governorships, 55% to 45%, and state legislatures, 59% to 41%

In the UK, four Samaritans from Palestine Action were cruelly sentenced to a combined total of more than 25 years in prison, after a judge callously ruled that they could be treated as terrorists.

Subsidized by the peace-loving, hard-working American taxpayer and employing US-provided munitions, the Israeli Death Forces (IDF) continue their gruesome Jeffery Dahmer-like serial killing spree in Gaza and Lebanon. As of 12 June 2026, the IDF has now killed 73,070 Palestinians in Gaza, including 20,179 children and ~3,700 people in Lebanon, including at least 200 children. Moreover, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir suggested that the IDF kidnap women and children from Lebanon. Since 1948 under both Democratic and Republican Party administrations, the US has sent both the Labor and Likud governments of Israel, a prosperous and nuclear-armed country with universal healthcare for all her residents, over $317.9bn, the most US economic aid given to any nation in the world.
