President Donald Trump on Thursday warned that if Hamas keeps killing people in Gaza, "we will have no choice but to go in and kill them," marking a sharp escalation of his rhetoric against the group as he tries to maintain a ceasefire in its conflict with Israel. The threat " just three days after the deal was signed in the Middle East " came amid reports that Hamas fighters have used the truce to quickly and violently reassert control over the Gaza Strip, targeting Palestinians who they deemed to have collaborated with Israeli forces during the war.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., repeatedly sidestepped a question about whether she believed illegal immigrants should receive taxpayer-funded healthcare during a CNN town hall on Wednesday night. Ocasio-Cortez, who continues to generate buzz as a possible 2028 presidential contender or a potential primary challenger to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., appeared alongside Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., to address questions about the ongoing government shutdown. Jill Ireland, identified by CNN as a California Democrat who works in insurance, submitted a pre-taped question: "Do you think taxpayers should be paying for the medical care of immigrants who are in the country illegally?"
A few weeks ago, as we solemnly commemorated the second anniversary of the darkest day in modern Jewish history since the Holocaust, a horrifying spectacle unfolded on the streets of New York. While decent human beings gathered to mourn the innocent souls slaughtered and the hundreds taken hostage by Hamas on Oct. 7, 2023, other groups assembled for a very different purpose. They did not gather to advocate for peace, or to support President Trump's ceasefire agreement. Rather, they chanted for Oct. 7 to happen again, screaming "Glory to our martyrs" (rapists and baby killers) while waving jihadist flags adorned with machine guns!
