...20. The United States will establish a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians to agree on a political horizon for peaceful and prosperous co-existence. Dialogue and diplomacy can only accomplish said means to an end of a given war when the victor is able to garner their rightfully won 'spoils of war.' Trump's peace plan as it stands now...in my opinion...still to some degree rewards those who instigated said war while Jew-hatred and misplaced anger against Israel continues to grow day by day.

So here in closing let me first say that even if Hamas were to accept Trump's peace plan...and the countdown for them to do so has already begun...it would only be done with the obligatory fingers crossed behind their backs as those like Hamas do not want peace as it goes against their ultimate goal of removing Israel and the Jews from the face of the map. But even if Hamas were to accept said deal now they will soon breach it for agreeing to deals for Hamas simply means they've bought themselves some time to regroup and rearm. And while said plan in its current state has been agreed to by Netanyahu, in my opinion, it was done so more out of loyalty and thanks to President Trump and the U.S. for standing strong and unwavering with the Jewish State of Israel...Read entire article here.

Johnson says Schumer handed Trump 'keys to the kingdom' with government shutdown decision

Speaker Johnson says OMB Director Russ Vought will decide which services to prioritize during federal closure

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., created a problematic government shutdown for the American people — but the move may have handed President Donald Trump the "keys to the kingdom."

"While a shutdown is very damaging for real American people who depend upon government services, it can provide an opportunity to downsize the scope and the scale of government, which is something that we've all always wanted to do," Johnson told "Mornings with Maria" on Wednesday.

"So, in a way, Chuck Schumer has now handed the keys to the kingdom to the executive branch under President Trump to do some things that we would not otherwise be able to do because we would never get Democrat votes for them." 

The House speaker accused Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) of taking "a partisan political stand for their own purposes" after the duo failed to bring "credible" arguments to their  meeting with President Trump. Read more and see videos here.

Beware, New York! The Red Flag Is Already Raised. Start Planning Your Escape Now

New Yorkers, beware. The storm isn’t coming - it’s already here. If the latest polls are accurate, Zohran Mamdani is on track to become your next mayor. And with him will come a radical agenda that will drain your paychecks, handcuff your police, and destroy your city’s future. This isn’t a partisan spin. It’s a warning from someone who once called New York home and now leads a city that’s thriving because we did the opposite of what Mamdani preaches. I’ve seen what good leadership builds - and how quickly bad policy can tear it down. 

The Radical Blueprint for Collapse

Mamdani wraps his agenda in words like “equity” and “fairness.” But peel back the packaging, and it’s a socialist wish list that would make AOC blush. His tax plan would push marginal rates up to 17 percent, leaving New York as one of the least competitive places to do business. That’s not a plan for growth; that’s a tax exit strategy for job creators.
