“The authors wildly overstate the Israel lobby’s power. Messrs. Clifton & Lustick claim it has been behind… an ‘antisemitism witch hunt’ on college campuses and elsewhere… you wonder if the authors read the news.” @DanielJSamet @wsjbooks wsj.com/arts-culture/books/i…

Vladimir Putin is not our friend, and he is certainly no humanitarian. His relentless attacks on innocent civilians in Ukraine show his total disregard for human life.
Appeasement won't end this war. Pressure will.

“I suddenly realized that this was the true logic of my nation. Whatever the Chinese Communist Party does to you, you have to allow it.”
During his conversation at the Reagan Institute, Pastor Ezra Jin shared a chilling moment from his imprisonment that revealed the Chinese Communist Party’s expectation of absolute obedience, even in the face of abuse.

Thanks for having me back. @reaganinstitute’s @RogerZakheim and I covered a lot.
Give it a listen!
Great to have Senator @DaveMcCormickPA back on the show. In addition to covering his trailblazing work on tech & defense in PA we discussed his important speech at the @RJC last month on why Israel is a model ally & why supporting free people is in our national interest @ReaganInstitute

"They are not winning on the battlefield. That's why they want to push us from our land." — @ZelenskyyUa
Asked by @kilmeade if Ukraine would hand over eastern territory (the Donbas region) to end the war, President Zelenskyy rejected Russia's demands and outlined what real peace requires:
- Zelenskyy Debunks Russian Claims: He stresses that Moscow is not winning on the ground and uses massive drone and missile attacks on civilians to force land concessions they haven't earned.
- Zelenskyy Calls to Freeze Frontlines First: He proposes an immediate ceasefire where troops currently stand, stopping the killings so peace talks can begin.
- Zelenskyy Demands Non-Negotiable Security Guarantees: He emphasizes that any deal must include rock-solid protection from the U.S. and Europe to ensure Russia never attacks again.
"People are tired of course. We want to end this war as quick as possible... but nobody can just leave our houses, our children."

BREAKING: Ukrainian President Zelenskyy says he would be open to freezing the front lines to end the war with Russia.
KILMEADE: "Would you accept a peace deal that freezes everything the way it is right now?"
PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY: "Yes... I think this is a real way to end this war."

Fact-filled review by @DanielJSamet of a very shoddy book.
“Clifton and Lustick casually state that Israel has ‘consistently bent American policy to its will.’ It is the other way around.”

Amazing Turnout on Capitol Hill for the @AmericanFreedom briefing this week on the Rise of Antisemitism! Proud of our AAF scholars and legendary Auburn @coachbrucepearl for contending there is No Place in America for AntiSemitism and making the case for US support for Israel🇺🇸🇮🇱

- Putin is a war criminal. The Russians commit war crimes as a matter of course and the fact that they abducted our fellow citizen and sent him to a penal colony notorious for abuse is more evidence.
- Russia wants to push two narratives: that it is reasonable and that its military success is inevitable. Both are false.

"We are on one side with Americans and Europeans." — @ZelenskyyUa
Ahead of high-stakes diplomatic meetings in Moscow, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy outlines key priorities discussed with U.S. representatives:
- De-escalation First: Proposals center on an energy ceasefire, maritime ceasefire, and food security.
- Trump's Proposal: Zelenskyy voiced immediate support for President Trump's proposed energy ceasefire, calling it a "strong idea."
- United Front: Emphasizing shared alignment with Western allies as talks move forward.
"I hope that in some hours we will have some results. God bless."
🎯 @dpletka & @BrettDSchaefer “The record of bias is plain. According to a database compiled by U.N. Watch, since it was founded in 2006, the Council has adopted 346 resolutions containing language condemning a country for human rights violations. Israel was the focus of 116 (34 percent) of those resolutions.”

Witkoff to Putin: “You talk so much about my president, President Trump, being a humanitarian — you are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that.”

SECRETARY RUBIO: I think what President Trump has exposed is that the number one driver of instability, war, conflict, and the number one obstacle to peace in the Middle East is the Islamic regime in Tehran.

Yalta actually turned out to be disastrous. It set the framework for Potsdam as well. FDR also undercut Churchill with Stalin at Yalta on some major issues. Let's hope this is NOT another Yalta. I will add that Zelinksy not being present would be like Churchill not being present. And why would China be present at all since China is not a direct combatant. In the end, surprise-surprise, Stalin did not adhere to the post-war agreements and Putin won't either. It wasn't until Reagan became president that the damage done -- the enslavement of tens of millions of people behind the "iron Curtain" -- was soon ended during the presidency of Bush 41. IMHO, the way to bring that war to an end between Russia, the aggressor, and Ukraine, the victim, is to to help strengthen Ukraine's hand, not with tens of billions inf weapons but scores of other ways. The Ukrainian military capabilities technological development have accomplished things nobody ever expected they could. They're a strong people who want to remain free. Lest we forget, our country, the UK, AND Russian entered in a security deal with Ukraine in exchange for Ukraine handing over to Russia all of its nuclear weapons. Of course, Putin violated it.

🎯 “As for U.S. politics, Mr. Trump’s advisers may tell him that voters don’t care about the post-1945 “global order.” But the public understands that China and Russia aren’t American friends, and they know looming trouble abroad when they see it.”
