KHAN SECURES Historic Third Term: Conservatives Grapple with Defeat in London
— Sadiq Khan of the Labour Party has won a third term as London’s mayor, securing nearly 44% of the vote. He outpaced his Conservative rival, Susan Hall, by more than 11 percentage points. This win is noted as the largest individual mandate in U.K. political history.
Contrary to expectations of a close contest, Khan’s significant lead reflects a shift from Conservative to Labour support since the last election in 2021. His time in office has been mixed, with progress in housing and transport but also rising crime rates and criticism over policies perceived as anti-car.
In his victory speech, Khan spoke about unity and resilience against negativity and division. He celebrated London’s diversity as its core strength and took a firm stand against right-wing populism. The eccentric candidate Count Binface added an unusual twist to the event with his presence at the announcement ceremony.
BIDEN ADMINISTRATION Slams Bangladesh Ban, Sparks Outrage Over Double Standards
— The Biden administration blasted Bangladesh’s interim government for banning the Awami League, a major opposition party. The U.S. State Department said this move “undermines democratic processes.” Officials warned that blocking political parties puts Bangladesh’s freedoms at risk.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken called on Bangladesh to respect democracy and allow open political activity. The White House spoke out as the country ramps up crackdowns on opposition voices.
This event shines a light on growing global worries about attacks on civil liberties. Many see it as another example of leaders targeting their critics to stay in power.
While Biden claims to defend democracy overseas, critics point out his own shaky record at home — raising questions about whether these warnings are honest or just more empty talk.;

BIDEN CANCER Shock, Trump TAX Fight, And Jail Break Stir Fear Across America
— President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer. The White House claims he is still able to lead, but many Americans are worried about his health and whether he can handle the job. Republicans are demanding more honesty about Biden’s condition as doubts grow over his ability to serve.
At the same time, Republican lawmakers are working hard to bring back Donald Trump’s tax cuts. They met on Sunday in a rare session to push these reforms forward. Conservatives say lower taxes will help families and businesses by boosting the economy.
In New Orleans, seven dangerous inmates broke out of the Orleans Parish Justice Center using homemade tools. Only three have been caught so far. Police warn that the others are armed and could hurt people, raising big questions about jail safety.
Other major news includes Homeland Security asking for 20,000 National Guard troops for border enforcement and Trump promising to call Putin about peace talks in Ukraine — slamming Biden’s handling of the war.

$18 BILLION Tariffs SHOCK China: Biden’s Risky Trade WAR Hits Home
— The Biden administration just hit China with $18 billion in new tariffs. Officials claim it’s a response to unfair trade from Beijing. This move is supposed to get tough on China, but it could mean higher prices for American families and businesses.
Harvard University is now suing the Trump administration over policy disagreements. The details are still coming out, but this shows how elite schools keep fighting against conservative leaders. Many on the right say Harvard pushes a leftist agenda.
World leaders also released a statement about using artificial intelligence in war. They want rules to control AI and keep things safe as technology gets more powerful in the military.
All these stories show how Washington is battling over trade, education, and national security — issues that matter for every American household.
HUNTER Biden’s SHOCKING Move: Avoiding Disbarment in DC
— Hunter Biden has given up his law license in Washington, D.C., dodging potential disbarment. This move follows his involvement in criminal cases that questioned his ability to keep the license.
Last year, Hunter was convicted for having a gun while using illegal drugs and lying on a gun-purchase form about his drug use. He also pleaded guilty to tax evasion and related crimes in September.
In December, President Joe Biden pardoned Hunter for all these offenses, stirring debates across political circles. By giving up his law license now, Hunter sidesteps what could have been a long and public disbarment battle.

BIDEN’S $100 BILLION AID Plan: What It Means for America’s Future
— Congress has approved over $100 billion in emergency aid after a rush to finalize a government spending bill. This funding responds to hurricanes Helene and Milton, which caused major damage in the southeastern United States. President Joe Biden signed the bill, ensuring federal operations continue through March 14.
The disaster relief package covers more than just hurricane damage. It includes funds for rebuilding the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, which collapsed after being hit by a container ship. The bill faced delays due to demands from President-elect Donald Trump, but Republicans passed a streamlined version without his key requests.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) will manage much of this funding through its disaster relief fund. This fund helps reimburse states and local governments for expenses like debris removal and overtime for emergency personnel during disasters. The aid aims to support recovery efforts across affected regions efficiently and promptly.
BIDEN and STARMER UNITE on Ukraine: Bold Strategy Talks at White House
— Labour leader Keir Starmer met with President Joe Biden at the White House to discuss strategy for Ukraine. They did not focus on specific capabilities.
Starmer had planned to press Biden on sending British Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine but will now address it at the UN General Assembly.
Biden dismissed Putin’s warnings about arming Ukraine, stating he doesn’t think much about Putin and believes Putin won’t win the war. However, Biden is hesitant to provide long-range ATACMS missiles due to limited impact and stock concerns.
The leaders also talked about Gaza, with Britain recently halting arms deliveries to Israel over potential violations of international humanitarian law.

NATO SUMMIT In DC: Biden’s RE-Election Doubts Shake Ukraine Support
— World leaders are heading to Washington, D.C., this week for a historic NATO summit as uncertainty rises over continued U.S. support for Ukraine. The summit marks the 75th anniversary of the alliance’s founding and comes amid skepticism about President Biden’s re-election chances and their impact on Ukraine’s war with Russia.
Key issues on the agenda include Ukraine’s success in its war with Russia, its future within NATO, and how the alliance plans to bolster collective defense. The U.S. has been a major supporter of Ukraine, providing significant aid, sparking debate over whether this level of support can continue under a different presidency.
Former President Donald Trump has not clarified what U.S. involvement with NATO would look like if he wins a second term, leaving questions about future American support for the alliance and Ukraine unanswered. Experts believe Trump is unlikely to pull out of NATO altogether but note that the alliance is taking steps to safeguard its support for Ukraine should Washington reduce its involvement.
BIDEN’S Border Chaos: Record Crossings Spark Outrage
— President Biden’s border policy is facing intense scrutiny as illegal crossings hit record highs. Critics argue that the administration’s approach has led to chaos and insecurity at the southern border. Republican lawmakers are calling for immediate action to restore order.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has deployed additional state resources to manage the surge. He stated, “The federal government’s failure leaves us no choice but to protect our own borders.” Local communities are feeling the strain, with many residents expressing concerns over safety and resources.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas defended the administration’s strategy, claiming it aims for a “humane” approach. However, many believe this leniency only encourages more illegal immigration.
With midterm elections approaching, border security remains a hot-button issue. Republicans see this as an opportunity to highlight what they view as Biden’s failed policies and push for stricter enforcement measures.
BIDEN ADMINISTRATION Under Fire for Ignoring Israeli Victims
— The Biden-Harris Administration’s recent fact sheet on conflict-related sexual violence has sparked controversy. The document highlights victims in various countries but omits Israeli victims and Palestinian terrorists’ crimes on October 7.
Reps. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Dan Goldman (D-NY) have voiced their concerns, sending a letter to the White House. They criticized the exclusion of sexual violence committed by Hamas against Israelis from the fact sheet.
Vice President Kamala Harris hosted a screening of Sheryl Sandberg’s film Screams Before Silence, which documents these atrocities. This omission is particularly embarrassing for Democrats following Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s primary defeat this week.
Biden’s BORDER Crisis: SHOCKING Surge in Illegal Crossings Alarms Americans
— The border crisis under President Biden has reached alarming levels. New data shows a shocking surge in illegal crossings, leaving many Americans concerned. The situation at the southern border is deteriorating, with record numbers of migrants attempting to enter the country.
Border Patrol agents are overwhelmed as they try to manage the influx. Many believe that Biden’s policies are too lenient and encourage more illegal immigration. Critics argue that stronger measures are needed to secure the border and protect American citizens.
Local communities near the border are feeling the impact firsthand. Increased crime rates and strained resources have residents worried about their safety and well-being. Many are calling for immediate action to address these pressing issues before they worsen further.
As this crisis continues, it’s clear that a change in strategy is necessary. Americans want effective solutions that will restore order and security at our borders, ensuring a safer future for everyone involved. The time for decisive action is now, before things spiral out of control even more dramatically than they already have.
BIDEN’S Border Policy Disaster: Record Migrant Surge Sparks Outrage
— The Biden administration’s border policies are facing renewed scrutiny as record numbers of migrants overwhelm U.S. border facilities. Critics argue that the administration’s lenient stance has encouraged illegal crossings, leading to chaos and insecurity.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported over 250,000 encounters in September alone, a historic high. This surge has strained resources and raised concerns about national security and public safety.
Republican lawmakers are calling for immediate action to secure the border. “Our communities are at risk,” said Senator Ted Cruz, emphasizing the need for stricter enforcement measures.
The White House has yet to present a concrete plan to address this crisis, leaving many Americans frustrated. As the situation deteriorates, calls for accountability continue to grow louder.
Biden’s BORDER Policy SHOCKS Americans: Crime Rates Soar
— President Biden’s border policy has led to a surge in illegal crossings. Many Americans are worried about the rising crime rates linked to this influx. Local communities are feeling the impact, and some residents say they no longer feel safe in their own neighborhoods.
Critics argue that Biden’s approach is too lenient and lacks proper enforcement. They believe this has encouraged more people to cross illegally, putting a strain on resources and law enforcement.
Supporters of stricter border control point out that crime rates have increased in areas with high numbers of illegal immigrants. They call for immediate action to secure the border and protect American citizens from further harm.
The debate over immigration policy continues, but one thing is clear: many Americans are deeply concerned about their safety and the future of their communities under current policies.
Biden’s BORDER Crisis: SHOCKING Numbers Reveal the Truth
— The border crisis under President Biden is getting worse. New data shows a record number of illegal crossings. Many Americans are worried about the impact on our country’s safety and economy.
In August alone, over 200,000 illegal immigrants were caught crossing the southern border. This is a huge increase from previous months. Border Patrol agents are overwhelmed and struggling to keep up with the surge.
Critics say Biden’s policies are to blame for this crisis. They argue that his administration has been too lenient on immigration laws. This has encouraged more people to try and enter the U.S. illegally, putting strain on resources and communities near the border.
Supporters of stricter immigration laws believe that tougher measures are needed now more than ever. They call for stronger enforcement at the border and policies that discourage illegal crossings altogether. The situation remains tense as America watches how this issue will unfold in the coming months under Biden’s leadership.
TIKTOK On The BRINK: Biden’s Bold Move to Ban or Force Sale of Chinese App
— TikTok and Universal Music Group have just renewed their partnership. This deal brings UMG’s music back to TikTok after a short break. The agreement includes better promotion strategies and new AI protections. Universal CEO Lucian Grainge said the deal will help artists and creators on the platform.
President Joe Biden has signed a new law that gives TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, nine months to sell the app or face a ban in the U.S. This decision is due to worries from both political sides about national security and protecting American youth from foreign influence.
TikTok’s CEO, Shou Zi Chew, announced plans to fight this law in U.S courts, claiming it supports their constitutional rights. Yet, ByteDance would rather close TikTok in the U.S than sell it if they lose their legal battle.
This conflict shows the ongoing struggle between TikTok’s business goals and America’s national security needs. It points out big worries about data privacy and foreign influence in American digital spaces by China’s tech sector.
BIDEN HALTS Leahy LAW: A Risky Move for US-Israel Ties?
— The Biden administration recently paused its plan to apply the Leahy Law to Israel, sidestepping a potential complication for the White House. This decision has sparked intense discussions regarding the future of U.S.-Israel relations. Nick Stewart from the Foundation for Defense of Democracies has voiced strong criticism, labeling it as a politicization of security aid that could set a troubling precedent.
Stewart charged that the administration is overlooking crucial facts and fostering a damaging narrative against Israel. He argued that this stance could empower terrorist organizations by distorting Israeli actions. The public exposure of these issues, along with leaks from the State Department, points to political motives rather than genuine concerns, Stewart suggested.
The Leahy Law bars U.S. funding to foreign military units accused of human rights violations. Stewart called on Congress to scrutinize whether this law is being politically weaponized against allies like Israel during an election season. He stressed that any real concerns should be addressed directly and respectfully with Israeli officials, preserving the alliance’s integrity
By halting application of the Leahy Law specifically towards Israel, questions arise about consistency and fairness in U.S. foreign policy practices, potentially impacting diplomatic trust between these longstanding allies.
BIDEN’S SHOCK Move: Sanctions on Israeli Military Could Ignite Tensions
— U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is considering imposing sanctions on the Israel Defense Forces’ battalion “Netzah Yehuda.” This unprecedented move could be announced soon and might heighten existing tensions between the U.S. and Israel, further strained by conflicts in Gaza.
Israeli leaders are firmly against these potential sanctions. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has pledged to defend Israeli military actions vigorously. “If anyone thinks they can impose sanctions on a unit in the IDF, I will fight it with all my might,” Netanyahu declared.
The Netzah Yehuda battalion has been under fire for alleged human rights violations involving Palestinian civilians. Notably, a 78-year-old Palestinian-American died after being detained by this battalion at a West Bank checkpoint last year, drawing intense international criticism and now possibly leading to U.S. sanctions against them.
This development could mark a significant shift in U.S.-Israel relations, potentially impacting diplomatic ties and military collaborations between the two nations if sanctions are implemented.
TRUMP SURGES Ahead in Michigan: Biden’s Struggle to Secure Base Exposed
— A recent trial ballot in Michigan has revealed a surprising lead for Trump over Biden, with 47 percent favoring the former president compared to 44 percent for the incumbent. This result falls within the survey’s ±3 percent margin of error, leaving nine percent of voters still undecided.
In a more complex five-way trial ballot test, Trump maintains his lead at 44 percent against Biden’s 42 percent. The remaining votes are split among independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein, and independent Cornel West.
Steve Mitchell, president of Mitchell Research, attributes Trump’s lead to Biden’s lackluster support from African Americans and younger voters. He forecasts a nail-biting contest ahead as the victory will likely hinge on which candidate can rally their base more effectively.
In a head-to-head choice between Trump and Biden, an overwhelming 90 percent of Republican Michiganders back Trump while only 84 percent of Democrats support Biden. This poll report underscores an uncomfortable situation for Biden as he loses a significant 12 percent chunk of his vote to former President Trump.
Biden WARNED: Israeli Defense Leaders URGE Against Recognizing Palestinian State
— A group of Israeli defense and security leaders have issued a stern warning to President Biden. Their message is clear — do not recognize a Palestinian state. They believe this move could endanger Israel’s existence and indirectly support regimes known for sponsoring terrorism, such as Iran and Russia.
The Israel Defense and Security Forum (IDSF) sent this urgent letter on February 19th. They caution that recognizing Palestine would be interpreted as rewarding violent actions by Hamas, global terrorist organizations, Iran, and other rogue states.
Brigadier General Amir Avivi, founder of the IDSF, spoke to Fox News Digital about the situation. He stressed that it’s crucial for the U.S., at this juncture, to stand by its key ally in the Middle East and uphold American interests in the region.
In a rare display of consensus on Wednesday, Israel’s Knesset (parliament) unanimously dismissed foreign pressures to single-handedly recognize a Palestinian state.
Is Biden’s DRONE ATTACK Response Just a ‘Checklist’ Strategy? Waltz Slams Administration
— In an exclusive statement to Breitbart News, Rep. Mike Waltz openly criticized the Biden administration’s handling of a recent drone attack in Jordan. This devastating event led to the loss of three American lives and left 25 others injured. Waltz, who holds positions on several House committees and has a background as a Special Forces commander, voiced his concerns about Biden’s strategy.
Waltz accused the administration of prematurely revealing its intended response to Iran, thus eliminating any potential element of surprise. His comments were in reference to Biden’s announcement on Tuesday where he assured that he does not seek a broader conflict in the Middle East. According to Waltz, simply telling Iran “don’t” is not an effective strategy.
The Florida congressman suggested a three-pronged approach: targeting IRGC operatives instead of just proxies, enforcing sanctions to cut off Iran’s funding sources, and supporting Iranian citizens demanding change. He expressed concern that Biden is merely ticking off boxes with ineffective strikes that target warehouses rather than directly punishing the Iranian regime.
Waltz called for a return to Trump’s policy of maximum pressure on Iran’s economy coupled with robust military action. He reminded readers that under President Trump’s leadership, attacks ceased when Iran-backed terrorists dared kill an American.
EMERGENCY Weapons Sale to Israel: BIDEN’S Bold Move Amidst Foreign Aid Stalemate
— Once again, the Biden administration has greenlit an emergency sale of weapons to Israel. The State Department made this announcement on Friday, stating that the move is designed to support Israel in its ongoing conflict with Hamas in Gaza.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken notified Congress about a second emergency determination that approves over $147.5 million in equipment sales. These sales encompass necessary components for 155 mm shells previously bought by Israel, including fuses, charges, and primers.
This decision was executed under an emergency provision of the Arms Export Control Act. This provision enables the State Department to sidestep Congress’ review role concerning foreign military sales. Interestingly enough, this move coincides with President Joe Biden’s request for nearly $106 billion in aid for countries like Israel and Ukraine being held up due to border security management debates.
“The United States remains dedicated to ensuring the security of Israel against threats it encounters,” declared the department.
OPERATION PROSPERITY Guardian: Biden’s Strategy Crumbles as Houthis Successfully Target Maersk Ship
— Despite the Biden administration’s strategy to deter Houthi attacks, it seems to be falling short. The Times of Israel has reported a missile strike on a Maersk container ship in the Red Sea. This marks the first successful attack since an international coalition started patrolling this crucial waterway just ten days ago.
The USS Gravely was quick to respond to a distress call from the Maersk Hangzhou, intercepting two additional ballistic missiles. US Central Command (CentCom) confirms there were no injuries and that the ship remains operational. The attack happened shortly after Denmark joined the coalition and Danish-owned Maersk decided to resume shipping through the Red Sea and Suez Canal.
US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin initiated “Operation Prosperity Guardian” on December 18 with support from ten nations against Houthi attacks on shipping routes. The Houthis aim is to cut off Israel’s Red Sea port of Eilat. However, this recent attack raises serious doubts about Biden’s strategy and its effectiveness in maintaining maritime security.
UNSHAKEN BIDEN Keeps Hunter Close Amidst Impeachment Storm: A Bold Statement or Blind Love?
— President Joe Biden remains steadfast in his support for his son, Hunter Biden, despite the ongoing impeachment investigation into Hunter’s overseas business dealings. On Monday, the Bidens were spotted sharing a meal with friends before Hunter accompanied the first family on their return flight from Delaware on Air Force One and Marine One.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refuted claims that the administration was trying to hide Hunter by not listing him on passenger rosters shared with journalists. She underscored that it has been a longstanding tradition for presidents’ family members to travel with them, and this custom is not going away anytime soon.
Hunter’s public appearances in front of press photographers and reporters could signify President Biden’s readiness to openly back his son. This support is unwavering even as Hunter faces potential criminal charges and defies a congressional subpoena. Throughout his presidency, President Biden has consistently voiced pride in his son.
URGENT: Biden DEMANDS Congress Approval for His Critical National Security Request
— President Joe Biden is pushing Congress to approve his vital national security supplemental request. The White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, and National Security Council spokesman, John Kirby, are addressing inquiries concerning this issue.
The press briefing was scheduled to begin at 2:45 p.m. EST. It came after Biden’s speech at the White House Tribal Nations Summit and virtual meetings with G7 leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Biden’s urgent call for action comes amidst a packed day filled with international diplomacy and domestic affairs. Stay connected for more updates straight from the White House.
BLACKBURN BLASTS Biden: The Deterrence Disaster and the Fight to Regain Trust
— Senator Blackburn has recently taken President Biden to task over his approach to national security. She stressed the urgency of an “effective kinetic response” in order to restore deterrence, which she argues has been undermined during Biden’s tenure.
Blackburn highlighted that discontent within the Pentagon stems from the poorly executed withdrawal from Afghanistan. This incident sparked widespread skepticism towards the Biden administration among military ranks.
She further contended that even when faced with alternative strategies, President Biden stubbornly stuck with his flawed plan. He then hailed it as a success, contradicting the military’s evaluation.
In Blackburn’s view, restoring deterrence and executing an effective kinetic response are vital steps towards regaining credibility and trust within our nation’s defense department.
President BIDEN’S RELENTLESS Coughing During Climate Speech Stirs Concerns
— During his Tuesday speech, President Joe Biden was seized by a persistent cough. He was discussing his administration’s efforts to tackle climate change and marking the anniversary of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
Biden’s coughing fit disrupted his conversation about the CHIPS and Science Act, a law he ratified last year. This act is designed to establish America as a forerunner in semiconductor manufacturing and innovation — vital for clean energy progression.
The president also relayed insights from his visit to the White House “Demo Day”. Here, he interacted with scientists engaged in projects funded by his administration. However, a recent poll from The Wall Street Journal indicates that two-thirds of Democrats believe Biden, at 80 years old, is too aged to be president.
Should he win reelection, Biden would be 82 at the onset of his second term and 86 at its conclusion. This would render him the oldest individual ever to assume presidency for a second tenure.
BIDEN and XI: Critical Trade Talks Amid Escalating Tensions
— President Joe Biden is scheduled to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping in California this Wednesday. This marks their first rendezvous in a year, amidst the backdrop of strained U.S.-China relations. The world’s two largest economies will put trade and Taiwan at the forefront of their discussions.
The White House has been alluding to this meeting for some time now. It will occur on the fringes of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in San Francisco. Both leaders are aiming to “responsibly manage competition” and collaborate where mutual interests overlap.
Meanwhile, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has been engaging with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng for a second day of dialogue on Friday. Yellen underscored America’s aspiration for a robust economic relationship with China, while also urging Beijing to take action against firms suspected of circumventing sanctions to transact with Russia.
Yellen additionally expressed apprehensions about China’s export controls on graphite – an essential component in electric vehicle batteries – amidst escalating tensions between the nations that could see thousands protesting during the summit.
BIDEN Administration’s SHOCKING U-Turn: Venezuelan Deportations to Resume Amid Rising Migrant Numbers
— The Biden administration has recently declared its intention to recommence the deportation of Venezuelan migrants. These individuals represent the largest single group encountered at the U.S.-Mexico border last month. The decision comes as their numbers continue to swell.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has referred to this new measure as one of the “strict consequences” being enforced in conjunction with expanding legal avenues for asylum seekers.
Speaking in Mexico City, Mayorkas mentioned that both nations are grappling with an unparalleled level of migration throughout their hemisphere. Two U.S. officials, who wished to remain anonymous, have confirmed that repatriation flights are slated to commence soon.
This action follows a recent surge in protected status for thousands of Venezuelans who arrived in the U.S before July 31 this year. However, addressing this discrepancy between expanding protections and resuming deportations, Mayorkas clarified that it is considered safe to return Venezuelan nationals who arrived after July 31 and lack a legal basis for staying here.

TOXIC TRAIN Wreck: Biden’s Shocking Ignorance of East Palestine’s Cries for Help
— Eight months have passed since a Norfolk Southern train derailment unleashed 1.6 million pounds of hazardous chemicals in East Palestine. The residents, numbering around 4,700, feel forsaken by President Biden. They accuse the man they once knew as “working class Joe” of turning a deaf ear to their crisis.
Resident Jessica Conard, who cast her vote for Biden in 2020, feels slighted by his absence. Her disappointment peaked when Biden flew over their town in September to join striking union workers in Michigan — a crucial swing state.
Krissy Ferguson lives within one mile of the disaster site and suspects politics influenced Biden’s non-response. She shared with the New York Times that if they were situated in a Democrat-leaning area rather than Trump-dominated territory where he bagged over 70% votes in 2020, they would have seen Biden.
The sense of betrayal from the president they once backed has left East Palestine citizens disenchanted and wounded. As they struggle with this catastrophe’s aftermath, their desperate calls for help fall on deaf ears.
