President Javier Milei entered office like Jack Nicholson breaking his way into the bathroom in "The Shining" — with an axe. Armed with emergency powers granted by the Argentine Congress, he balanced the country's out-of-control budget in one month, fired government workers by the thousands, eliminated more than 200,000 "corrupt" social welfare programs, and even cozied up to NATO. “There’s a lot more chainsaw" to come, Milei promised in March, and I momentarily almost became gay.The usual fearmongers mongered the usual fears.A few weeks ago, the New York Times ran an opinion piece — complete with a demonic-looking, high-contrast black-and-white...

On Thursday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “The Hill,” House Armed Services Committee Ranking Member Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA) said that the White House “needs to clean…up” President Joe Biden’s comments on Israel to CNN “and reiterate our support for Israel,” because “To the extent it looks like we are separating from Israel, that just gives Hamas all the more incentive to keep fighting.” He also called on the White House to push the message that Hamas is holding up a ceasefire.

Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Wednesday on CBS’s “The Late Show” that President Joe Biden should have cut off weapons to Israel sooner. Wednesday on CNN, Biden said he would not supply offensive weapons for Israel to attack Rafah. Psaki said, “I do think that there’s some leverage we’re all seeing being used. Should it have been used earlier? I think the answer is yes to that. But we are seeing them pull back in the sending of weapons. That’s actually a pretty significant sign, given that the United States and Israel has a long-standing connection on...

Ben Gvir hammered by president, opposition over ‘Hamas Lapid and Yesh Atid lawmakers urge Netanyahu to fire minister for ‘infantile’ response to US arms freeze threat, amid worries quip could harm national security. National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir faced calls for his sacking Thursday after he quipped online that the Hamas terror group loves Joe Biden, in reaction to the US president’s comments to CNN that he would freeze arms transfers to Israel should the military advance into the Gazan city of Rafah. Opposition head Yair Lapid led a chorus of lawmakers from his side of the aisle excoriating...

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a video message on Thursday vowing that Israel "will stand alone" to defeat Hamas, if necessary, after President Biden threatened to withhold weapon shipments to the Jewish State should Netanyahu proceed with an invasion of Rafah. Netanyahu echoed the 1948 Israeli war of independence in his remarks, saying that despite a weapons embargo on Israel, Israelis had fought and defeated the Arab nations who attacked the nascent Jewish state, thanks to their bravery and unity. "Today, we are much stronger," the prime minister said. "We are determined, and we are united in order to...

Mayor Eric Adams’ administration says the city has saved money by putting limits on how long migrant families can stay in shelters. But that 60-day cap has come at a humanitarian cost and its consequences have been poorly tracked, according to an investigation by City Comptroller Brad Lander.

The Saban Capital Group founder held a prominent L.A. event for the president in February, raising $4.5 millionDemocratic megadonor Haim Saban torched President Joe Biden’s decision to pause Israeli weapons shipments in an email to aides on Thursday, urging the administration to “reconsider.” The Biden administration paused a shipment of thousands of weapons to Israel, including 2,000-pound bombs, amid concerns over Israel’s intention to expand military operations in Rafah, which could dramatically increase the death toll in Gaza, according to U.S. officials on Tuesday. Israeli-American donor Saban, who hosted a prominent Los Angeles fundriaser for Biden’s reelection campaign in February,...

New York City Democrats were largely quiet Thursday after President Biden announced he was pausing some military aid for Israel to deter an offensive against Hamas-held Rafah — with members of the left-wing “Squad” of House members openly celebrating and many others saying nothing publicly. “Protesting is working. Keep fighting for a #CeasefireNow,” tweeted Bronx and Westchester Rep. Jamaal Bowman, who has been an outspoken supporter of anti-Israel protesters at Columbia University and elsewhere Bronx and Queens Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez also celebrated Biden telling CNN “I’m not supplying the weapons” for an offensive on Hamas’ final major stronghold in the...

The Biden administration tried to argue Thursday that if Israel launched an ambitious attack on Hamas in Rafah, that would strengthen Hamas, improve Hamas’s leverage in hostage negotiations, and build popular support for Hamas. Israel launched a limited operation in Rafah this week, near the Egyptian border, as it prepares to take on the final four Hamas battalions in a town that is viewed as the last stronghold of the terrorist organization in the Gaza Strip. State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said that an Israeli military campaign in Rafah would “actually weaken … Israel’s security.” He also said that the...

His Fraudulency Joe Biden falsely claimed via Xwitter that, “I will not rest until every hostage … ripped from their families and held by Hamas is back in the arms of their loved ones.” “They have my word,” he added. “Their families have my word.” Honor his word ⚖ Pander for Dearborn votes https://t.co/ILm2pFQXqt — Breitbart News (@BreitbartNews) May 9, 2024 Let’s start with the fact that President Codger rests a lot, a whole lot, usually with an ice cream cone. I get that I’m being a tad literal, so let’s look at what Biden’s doing (or not doing) that...

Two hydropower plants in Ukraine were severely damaged and were no longer in operation after Russian bombardments earlier this week, the state energy company Ukrhydroenergo said Thursday. "As of today all hydro generation has suffered devastating damage," it said in a statement on the Telegram messaging app, adding that significant financial resources and efforts would be required to repair the damage and restore the plants' operations. Ukraine plans to double electricity imports Thursday after the powerful Russian attack on Ukraine's energy system, the energy ministry said.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) – Poland’s defense minister said Thursday his country is strengthening the metal barrier along its border with Belarus to deter illegal migration. “We are mending the barrier on the Polish-Belarusian border, we are strengthening this barrier,” Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz said on private Radio Zet. “The spending on these purposes is the highest in (Poland´s) history.” Kosiniak-Kamysz said the increased presence of Polish and allied military forces in regions close to the border is also helping to tighten the eastern frontier of NATO and the European Union. That presence has been increased since Russia’s aggression in Ukraine in 2022.

Arrested for disorderly conduct Tuesday, disorder mastermind (for pay!) Manolo De Los Santos was walking free the next day. Hey, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg: How about getting serious and creative in investing, charging and criminally prosecuting the career agitators encouraging chaos across the city? Yes, De Los Santo, the 35-year-old leftist zealot and co-executive director of The People’s Forum (an incubator for radical progressives), only got arrested for disorderly conduct at an anti-Israel encampment at the Fashion Institute of Technology. But in January, he was arrested at another protest (where he called for the state of Israel to be...

As I've written before, the globalists have spent decades indoctrinating Westerners to believe that legitimate criticism of people with darker skin is a sign of racism, if not "proof" of so-called "white supremacy." That includes speaking out against the epidemic of illegal immigrants, or asylum-seekers — call them what you will — committing unspeakable levels of sexual assault against Western women. Most Americans have no idea what has been happening in Europe for two decades. But as I've warned in the past, the United States is only five to seven years behind the UK. Watch our Brit friends if you...

Grammy-winning rapper Macklemore has expressed solidarity with anti-Israel protesters and condemned Israel’s military campaign against Hamas terrorists, choosing a sellout crowd in New Zealand’s capital, Wellington, to deliver his pro-Palestinian views. He told the gathered 5,000 Kiwis in a short speech 40 minutes into his two-hour set: I stand here today and every day forward for the rest of my life in solidarity with the people of Palestine, with an open heart, in the belief that our collective liberation is at stake – that we all deserve freedom in this life of ours. Yesterday [Tuesday], I put out a song...

Delaying this arms transfer to Israel is a dangerous and counterproductive message. It emboldens Iran, Hamas, and Hezbollah, and undermines America’s commitments to all our allies.

Israelis across the political spectrum were shocked Thursday by U.S. President Joe Biden’s commitment to stop the shipment of offensive weapons to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to prevent Israel from attacking Hamas in Rafah. Biden made the threat in an interview Wednesday with CNN that aired early Thursday local time, just hours after Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin admitted to the Senate that a shipment of bombs to Israel had been paused. The president expanded the stoppage to include artillery, and accused Israel of using American-made weapons to kill Palestinian civilians — a claim that echoed the accusations of...

Joe Biden veered off-script during an interview with a Spanish-language radio station, appearing to admit the real reason he is allowing millions of illegal aliens to enter the United States. Since Biden took office, an estimated 11 million illegal aliens, the majority of whom are military-age males, have entered the U.S. Is that incompetence? Well, if you look at who benefits, it becomes clear that the border crisis is a strategic effort to get Democrats more voters. Biden admitted this during the interview. “It’s even a bigger influx now in terms of Hispanic voters! Err, Hispanic citizens,” Biden said. AUDIO:...
