EVA VLAARDINGERBROEK: Hello, Hungary, hello, Budapest, hello, fellow Europeans and American friends. Thank you so much for having me. Allow me to skip formalities for a moment and dive right into a subject that is not so cheerful, but very, very necessary to discuss. Let me walk you through the past seven days in Europe. This week in Stockholm, three elderly women in their 70s were stabbed in broad daylight on the streets. In London, four people were stabbed in a time span of just 42 hours.

President Joe Biden’s approval rating average (38.7 percent) in the 13th quarter is the lowest of any president recorded, Gallup polling found on Friday. Biden’s terrible approval numbers of his 13th quarter in office, which began on January 20 and ended April 19, suggests he will have a difficult time winning reelection. Presidents historically need to average around 50 percent to win reelection. “Jimmy Carter is the only other president with a sub-50% average in his 13th quarter. Three of the four prior presidents who had 13th-quarter approval averages below 50% lost their reelection bids, with Obama the exception,” Gallup...

Nearly two weeks ago, Columbia University president Minouche Shafik assured members of Congress that an anti-Semitic professor had been terminated. That professor, Mohamed Abdou, was "grading his students' papers" before the end of the semester and would "never teach at Columbia again," Shafik said. Instead, Abdou—a self-described "Muslim anarchist" who teaches a class on "Decolonial-Queerness & Abolition"—has been a regular presence in the unsanctioned "Gaza Solidarity" tent encampment that has plagued Columbia since student protesters constructed it on the day of Shafik's testimony. The Washington Free Beacon has spotted him daily—talking to student leaders, lounging in the sun, and participating...

Far-left pro-Palestinian student activists blockaded the entrances of the Sorbonne University in Paris on Monday following similar attempts last week to shut down the elite Sciences Po research university.

The president’s brother, James Biden, will likely receive renewed focus from the fledgling House impeachment inquiry following disclosures about his involvement with Qatari government officials and his attempts to gain access to the country’s sovereign wealth fund.

Scandal-plagued Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was nowhere to be seen Sunday during the first Democrat Party debate as she tries to win re-election.

Her conduct was examined during a series of sensational hearings, with Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee ultimately slamming her for a 'tremendous lapse in judgment' and for acting in an 'unprofessional manner.' She escaped with just a slap on the wrist, however, after McAfee dramatically ruled she...
