President Biden will announce during his State of the Union address Thursday that he’s directing the U.S. military to lead the construction of a port along the coast of Gaza on the Mediterranean Sea to boost the amount of aid getting to Palestinian civilians. [Snip] Senior administration officials said the project will not require any U.S. boots on the ground in Gaza. Instead, the plan involves U.S. personnel on military vessels offshore who will not be required to go ashore to install the port. [Snip] A senior administration official said the U.S. worked “very closely with the Israelis in developing this initiative.”

Scientists are scrambling to find the cause of a mystery cancer 'epidemic' which is striking under-50s. Kate Middleton's shock diagnosis last week has shone a light on the startling trend, with top doctors claiming it is a worldwide problem.[Snip]Professor Sikora also said that the increase has been observed for years and there are a number of reasons experts suspected were to blame. Its' got nothing to do with Covid or vaccines--it started happening long before,' he said. 'I believe its probably due to lifestyle changes--obesity, fatty diet, sedentary behaviour, sitting at desks all day and of course better diagnostics.'
New York Attorney General Letitia James reportedly has three ways to collect $454 million if former President Donald Trump does not post a bond to cover a civil fraud judgment by Monday. If Trump’s Monday appeal fails to reduce or hold off James from collecting the bond amount, she would have the power to go after the former president’s cash and real estate holdings. [Snip] 1. Placing liens against properties, 2. Collecting rents from properties. 3. Collecting funds from Trump’s New York state bank accounts. [Snip] James could then use the judgment to target Trump’s assets in other states through a process called “domesticating.”
President Trump just notched a legal win that may shed some light on the bizarre decision made by the judge in the Big Fani dismissal case. In a moment that felt suggestive in a “wink and a nod” kind of way, Judge McAfee not only granted Trump a substantial triumph but also opened the door for rectifying his own unjust ruling by approving Trump’s appeal request in Georgia. It appears as if McAfee wanted to wash his hands clean and defer to a higher court, almost as if he was encouraging Trump’s team to seek an appeal and give Big Fani the bum rush right out the door.
Before anybody can claim that I am circulating a conspiracy theory, or citing an unreliable “news” source, I am going to quote President Biden’s State of the Union address and his own website (whitehouse.gov) as the sources of this information. I will then [Snip] Corporations received an enormous tax break in 2017. While their profits soared, their investment in their workers and the economy did not. Their shareholders and top executives reaped the benefits, without the promised trickle down to workers, consumers, or communities.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk is defending former President Donald Trump on Sunday after multiple establishment media outlets ran headlines stating that the former president warned the U.S. would see a "bloodbath" if he is not reelected. [Snip] "Jan 6 was not a 'bloodbath' by any definition and Trump was referring to job losses in the auto industry when he used that word," Musk, the owner of X, replied to Scarborough. "Your post is extremely misleading." When Trump used the word "bloodbath," he was discussing China's reported plans to build cars in Mexico and sell them cheaply in the United States.
Meghan Markle has launched a luxury lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard with a glitzy Instagram video. [Snip] Her new project is said to have been in the works for more than a year--and feature 'all the things that are close to her heart'. [Snip] The announcement comes on the same night as Prince Harry and Prince William are set to make a rare joint appearance at the Diana Legacy Award event at the Science Museum in London--but neither will be in the room at the same time, even virtually.
Democrats are meddling in Ohio’s Senate GOP primary at the 11th hour to boost Bernie Moreno, the candidate former President Donald Trump endorsed to face vulnerable Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown.[Snip]The group is funded by Senate Majority PAC, the top Democratic outside group focused on Senate races. The apparent goal of the ad is to boost Moreno with GOP voters, and their interference in the race is a sign that they believe he would be the weakest candidate in the general election. Ohio, one of three Democratic-held seats up for election in states Trump won in 2020, is one of the most critical races to the Senate majority.
Harry and Meghan are facing a hypocrisy row after it was revealed that a tree was edited into the photo used to announce Meghan Markle being pregnant with Lilibet, after the Duchess of Sussex's camp took aim at the Princess of Wales for her Photoshop blunder. Royal experts have slammed Prince Harry and Meghan as 'hypocrites' after a resurfaced podcast heard that the intimate 2021 black and white photo of the couple had been doctored. London-based photographer Misan Harriman has previously discussed how he altered an image of them in a meadow to be under a willow tree.
The Princess of Wales is in a 'fragile mental and physical state' and will be 'feeling miserable' amid the Mother's Day photo row, a royal expert claimed today as she urged for people to 'lay off her'. Kate publicly took the blame for a manipulated family photograph released by Kensington Palace on Sunday as she issued an apology for the 'confusion'. Royal commentator Jennie Bond suggested Kate 'must feel under intense pressure now whenever she's going to be seen in public' after her major surgery in January.
The number of civilian casualties in Gaza has been at the center of international attention since the start of the war. The main source for the data has been the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry, [Snip] If Hamas’ numbers are faked or fraudulent in some way, there may be evidence in the numbers themselves that can demonstrate it. While there is not much data available, there is a little, and it is enough: [Snip]
While the evidence is not dispositive, it is highly suggestive that a process unconnected or loosely connected to reality was used to report the numbers. [Snip] The total civilian casualty count is likely to be extremely overstated.
Former President Donald Trump posted a $91.6 million bond Friday after losing writer E. Jean Carroll’s defamation case against him, also appealing the eight-figure judgment, as the ex-president faced a Monday deadline to pay the judgment against him—though he still has hundreds of millions more to pay in a separate civil fraud case. [Snip] Trump faced a Monday deadline to put up the money he owes in the case, as he had 30 days after the judgment on Feb. 8 to either pay cash or post an appeals bond before Carroll could ask the court to enforce the judgment and seize Trump’s assets.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski, aghast at Donald Trump’s candidacy and the direction of her party, won’t rule out bolting from the GOP.
The veteran Alaska Republican, one of seven Republicans who voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial amid the aftermath of January 6, 2021, is done with the former president and said she “absolutely” would not vote for him.
“I wish that as Republicans, we had … a nominee that I could get behind,” Murkowski told CNN. “I certainly can’t get behind Donald Trump.” The party’s shift toward Trump has caused Murkowski to consider her future within the GOP. In the interview, she would not
James Carville, the Democratic political strategist who led Bill Clinton to victory in the 1990s, claimed “too many preachy females” in the party may be to blame for turning voters off to Joe Biden. (snip) “A suspicion of mine is that there are too many preachy females” dominating the culture of the Democratic Party, Carville told Dowd. “‘Don’t drink beer. Don’t watch football. Don’t eat hamburgers. This is not good for you.’ The message is too feminine: ‘Everything you’re doing is destroying the planet. You’ve got to eat your peas.’"
Footage of Russian forces torturing the men they arrested over the Moscow terror attack emerged tonight, with one man given electric shocks to his genitals and a second forced to eat his own ear.

Vice President Kamala Harris said on Sunday that the administration had not ruled out “consequences” for Israel if it defied President Joe Biden and attacked Hamas in the southern Gaza city of Rafah.
Biden has warned Israel publicly not to attack Hamas in Rafah, due to the presence of large numbers of civilians there, which the terrorist group uses as human shields. Israel says that it cannot win the war without defeating the last four Hamas battalions in Rafah.
Harris’s spoke to ABC News on Sunday, telling a reporter that “I have studied the maps” of southern Gaza:
It’s really not a matter of if Republican senators will leave the party in the lame duck session after a President Trump win in November; the question is: how many?
The predictability of the issue is actually quite simple. {GO DEEP} Almost all senators kneel at the altar of money, nothing else. The GOPe senators will exhaust every weapon in their arsenal on behalf of their multinational financial benefactors, prior to the November 2024 election. Once those narrative attack weapons are exhausted, they will take the deal and quit the party in their final political effort to retain affluence.
Fani Willis hasn't learned her lesson nor does she feel any semblance of shame.
The disgraced Fulton County district attorney doubled down Saturday after she was caught having—and hiding—an affair with special prosecutor Nathan Wade, the private-practice attorney she had hired to helm the prosecution of former President Donald Trump. Wade was paid $654,000 for his work on the Trump case and spent portions of his taxpayer-funded paychecks on luxury "vacations across the world" the two took together as lovers, including trysts in Aruba, the Bahamas, Belize, and Napa Valley.
The United Nations Security Council on Monday passed a resolution calling for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
The resolution calls for the immediate cease-fire in Gaza during Ramadan and the immediate, unconditional release of the hostages being held captive by Hamas. The U.S. chose to abstain instead of vetoing the resolution, and all other member nations voted in favor.
It marks the first time the U.N. Security Council has passed a cease-fire resolution since the war between Israel and Hamas broke out on October 7 because of Hamas’s mass slaughter of innocent civilians from Israel and nations around the world.
For years, Donald Trump has made it abundantly clear that if he doesn’t win the 2024 presidential election, he is willing to cheat and steal it. [SNIP] Long before Trump began leading in battleground-state polling — and years before he was a declared 2024 candidate — the ex-president and many of his influential allies were already busy plotting ways to tilt the election in his favor.
It happened in Israel, and it happened in Moscow, and it’s going to happen here in America – again, and exponentially worse. The jihadis’ merciless war against the West – the Muslim fanatics are not so finicky as we are about our distinctions between the Jewish state, Russia, and us, the Great Satan – did not end when the regime media started covering other things.We may have fled Afghanistan and Libya and largely pulled out of Iraq, but that war is still going on. It’s going to go on until we decisively win it. But unfortunately, our ruling class refuses to decisively win it. In fact, our ruling class actively
Senate Democrats were left red-faced at a hearing on climate change as their 'expert witness' proved to be anything but when faced by veteran senator John Kennedy.
Budget Chairman Sheldon Whitehouse invited Olympic skier Gus Schumacher to give his perspective as the committee considered the impact of climate change on the recreation industry.
But it was all downhill for the 23-year-old as he struggled to answer basic questions and could not remember his tweets claiming the war on drugs was designed to jail black people, and calling for the police to be abolished.

Every single Senate Democrat voted against a bill that would have stopped the Biden Administration from chartering more than 32,000 illegal immigrants from their countries to various American communities. Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) called out Democrats on Friday night after they opposed legislation that would protect American tax dollars from being spent on flights for hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens to be flown to cities across the country.
“Make no mistake here. President Biden has secretly been flying hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens in foreign countries into blue-city airports,” Hagerty said from the Senate floor. “Just last year alone, in 2023, it was reported that some 320,000
