Alleged UFC White House Terror Plot Exposes Yet Another Security Nightmare

Just when you thought the threat environment surrounding President Trump couldn't get any crazier, federal investigators say they disrupted an alleged terror plot targeting the UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House that involved explosive-laden drones, sniper teams, and plans to storm the White House gates.

And here's the detail that's sure to reignite an already heated immigration debate: the alleged ringleader was reportedly an illegal immigrant who had received protection under the Obama-era DACA program.

According to Homeland Security information first obtained by Fox News Digital, Abraham Hermosillo Alvarez, 31, allegedly orchestrated a plan to carry out a mass casualty attack during the June 14 UFC event held on White House grounds. Alvarez reportedly entered the United States as a child and remained in the country after his B2 visa expired in 2001. In 2014, he was granted deportation relief through Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals after failing to leave the country.

Federal authorities say Alvarez wasn't acting alone. Five co-conspirators have already been arrested, and investigators have identified a total of 23 individuals connected to the alleged planning network.

According to court documents and DOJ filings, the plot called for drones equipped with explosives to force an evacuation of the event. As crowds scrambled to escape, a sniper team allegedly planned to open fire. Authorities say Alvarez, who allegedly used the alias "Shepherd" in group communications, was "responsible for planning, organizing, and directing the planned attack."

When discussing weaponized drones in the group chat, Alvarez allegedly responded, "As many and as deadly as we can get." Investigators also claim he boasted of possessing a functioning drone capable of carrying out the attack.

The allegations don't stop there.

Federal authorities say the conspirators planned a "second wave" operation after the initial assault, allegedly intending to rush the White House gates amid the confusion. Prosecutors say the group hoped the violence would trigger a broader political uprising, citing grievances that ranged from government corruption and the Epstein files to data center water consumption and perceived Israeli influence over American politics.

ICE has lodged a detainer against Alvarez following his arrest by the FBI in Omaha, Nebraska, on the day of the event.

"This illegal alien from Mexico should never have been allowed in our country," DHS Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis said. "He was the ringleader of a failed terror attack targeting UFC Freedom 250 at the White House."

"He will face justice and swiftly be removed from our country," she added.

One question remains difficult to ignore: if investigators identified 23 individuals connected to the alleged plot, why was the event allowed to proceed while many of those suspects apparently remained unaccounted for?

Neither the White House nor the FBI offered additional details when Fox News Digital asked about the whereabouts of other participants allegedly involved in the planning.

Vice President JD Vance sought to reassure the public, arguing that the conspiracy never progressed very far.

"The FBI, our law enforcement partners and our U.S. Attorneys did what they do every day to make America Safe through quick response and vigilance in investigating, disrupting and dismantling this alleged plan before it could be carried out," Acting Attorney General Todd said in a DOJ statement. "We will take immediate and aggressive action to identify and prosecute those who incite and plan acts of violence."

Vance likewise noted that the alleged plans were "not that advanced" and said none of the suspects "weren’t in town" during the event itself.

Still, the case highlights the reality that Trump's public appearances continue to attract dangerous actors.

UFC CEO Dana White acknowledged as much, saying multiple threats had been directed at the event.

"These are the kind of events that bring the nuts out, this is normal stuff," White said.

Normal or not, that's a remarkable statement when discussing an event held on White House grounds.

The alleged conspiracy is merely the latest entry on a growing list of threats directed at Trump since he survived an assassination attempt during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024. Since then, authorities have investigated a second assassination attempt at his Florida golf club, an alleged Iran-linked murder-for-hire scheme, an armed man who rushed the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and countless threats made online and through other channels.

The good news is that this alleged plot was stopped before anyone was harmed. The bad news is that it serves as yet another reminder that the people tasked with protecting America's leaders are confronting an increasingly relentless threat landscape.

BREAKING: US Secret Service officers shoot armed person near White House

An armed individual was shot by U.S. Secret Service near the White House on Monday afternoon.

U.S. Secret Service officers shot an armed person Monday near the White House, according to a federal source familiar with the incident.

The shooting happened near 15th Street and Independence Avenue, a little over a half mile from the White House and close to the Washington Monument.

Secret Service Uniformed Division officers engaged the individual after the person pulled a gun, a federal source told Fox News Digital.

The suspect was believed to be alive and taken to a hospital, the source said. The situation appeared to be quickly contained, with no immediate indication of a broader threat, they said.The Secret Service said in a post on X that one individual was shot by law enforcement.

The Metropolitan Police Department said it is on the scene investigating and that the area has been secured.

Authorities urged the public to avoid the area as road closures were expected to last for several hours.

King Charles arrives in US to discuss Iran war and maybe even Islam

L-R: Queen Camilla, sans hijab, King Charles, sans head rag,
President Trump and Melania Trump

The state visit, by far the most high-profile and consequential of Charles' reign, marks the 250th anniversary of the US Declaration of Independence from British rule.

President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump welcome Britain's King Charles and Queen Camilla on the day of an afternoon tea and McDonald's at the White House. 

Britain's King Charles and Queen Camilla touched down in the United States on Monday for a four-day state visit. They were greeted by self-proclaimed royal fan Donald Trump, even as the president continues to have some very public differences with the British government over the war in Iran.

This whole production is easily the biggest and most important trip of Charles' time on the throne. It celebrates 250 years since we told the British to pound sand with the Declaration of Independence, and it is the first visit by a British monarch to America in two decades.

The royal couple landed at Joint Base Andrews, where diplomatic types, state officials, federal bigwigs, and British embassy staff rolled out the welcome mat. Some kids from British military families stationed here even handed over flowers. From there it was straight to the White House for the full dog-and-pony show. 

Trump and Melania greeted them warmly. There were cheek kisses from the First Lady with the king and queen, firm handshakes from the president, a quick pose for the cameras, and then everyone headed inside for private tea . . . and did someone say 'McDonald's?'

The rest of the week features a Tuesday address to Congress, a lavish state dinner back at the White House, and a Wednesday jaunt up to New York City. All of this is happening while Washington remains a bit jumpy after the White House Correspondents' Association dinner shooting on Saturday.

Trump has always been an unabashed fan of the British royal family and has regularly called Charles a "great man." That said, he has had some sharp disagreements with Prime Minister Keir Starmer's government.

Starmer is probably hoping this visit papers over the cracks and rescues the "special relationship," which is currently in the worst shape it has seen since the Suez Crisis in 1956. The long-planned trip has gotten tangled up in a nasty political fight between the two countries over the US-Israeli war on Iran. Trump has made no secret of his deep displeasure with the British for not backing the offensive.

The 77-year-old king, who is still battling cancer, will address the US Congress on Tuesday. He will be only the second British monarch to do so.

Tea, crumpets, and McDonald's

After that the royals head to New York City to commemorate the victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks ahead of the 25th anniversary. Camilla will also mark the centenary of the Winnie the Pooh stories. The trip wraps up in Virginia, where Charles will meet with folks doing conservation work. That is a nice little hat tip to his decades of environmental lecturing.

It is not known if he plans to spend time alone, but he did inquire as to the direction of Mecca. 

Britain's ambassador to the US, Christian Turner, said the visit would highlight the shared history, sacrifice, and common values between the two countries. He added that the approach would be very British: "Keep calm, carry on."

Trump has dialed back his criticism of Britain on the Iran issue in recent days. Even so, an internal Pentagon email floated the idea of reviewing the US position on Britain's claim to the Falkland Islands as payback for the lack of support. That certainly did not help the mood. 

One topic Charles will be working overtime to dodge is the Jeffrey Epstein mess. Royal sources say it simply is not possible for the couple to meet any of Epstein's victims during the trip, despite requests, because it could mess with potential criminal cases.

Charles' brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, has seen his reputation and royal status torched by his ties to the late sex offender who supposedly committed suicide. The former Prince Andrew is facing police inquiries over those connections. 

He has denied any wrongdoing, but there are photos.

Is Tim Walz toast?

Oh, sweet merciful crap, Tim Walz might finally be cooked, and not just from all that hotdish he pretends to love.

Remember when Tampon Tim was out there doing his aw-shucks Midwestern dad routine, floating a 2028 presidential run like he's the second coming of Hubert Humphrey? Yeah, about that. The new betting line in Minnesota isn’t "Will Walz run for president?" It’s "Will Walz finish his term without wearing an orange jumpsuit that clashes with his Carhartt cosplay?"

Because now over 400 employees from his own Department of Human Services have gone full Roman tribunal on his sorry butt, declaring in no uncertain terms that "Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota."

You read that right. Not "kinda-sorta," not "shared responsibility," not "oopsie-daisy, the dog ate the oversight." One hundred percent responsible. 

We're talking about a Medicaid fraud scandal so gargantuan it makes Feeding Our Future look like some kid stealing lunch money. Somali "clinics" in the Twin Cities allegedly siphoned hundreds of millions, possibly billions, from autism programs, kicked back cash to parents to keep quiet, and (plot twist!) funneled taxpayer dollars straight to Al-Shabaab, the Al-Qaeda affiliate that likes turning shopping malls into slaughterhouses. One 29-year-old genius alone is accused of pocketing $14 million for fake autism treatments. That's not fraud, that's a Somali terrorist GoFundMe with extra steps.

And here’s the kicker: whistleblowers say they ran straight to Walz early on, begging him to do something. His response? According to the employees, they "got the opposite response." Instead of help, Walz "systematically retaliated against whistleblowers using monitoring, threats, repression," while his DFL cronies and the obedient Star Tribune lapdogs circled the wagons.

These poor souls say Walz deliberately neutered the Legislative Auditor, installed loyal hacks who "willfully disregarded rules and laws to keep fraud reports quiet," and built a culture where anyone who squealed got reassigned, threatened, or silenced. Their money quote on the governor: "Fundamentally, Tim Walz is dishonest, lacks ethics and integrity." That isn't a resignation letter, that’s a political obituary.

Even the Minnesota GOP congressional delegation, led by Tom Emmer, is demanding federal investigators crawl so far up Walz's khakis they can read the tag.

When four hundred of your own people are willing to torch their careers to scream from the rooftops that you're a corrupt, retaliatory liar who looked the other way while taxpayer money funded terrorists… you’re clearly not eyeing the White House anymore. You're just hoping the feds let you keep the lake cabin.

Tim Walz always bragged about "One Minnesota." Turns out that one Minnesota includes a governor who's allegedly 100% cool with fraud, terrorism financing, and crushing anyone brave enough to rat him out.

Swalwell's Tantrum: Dems Must Swear to Smash Trump's Glorious White House Ballroom or Hit the Road

Eric Swalwell: the man who brought you Fang Fang and the "Fart Heard Round the World"

Oh, here we go again, folks, another day, another unhinged meltdown from the fever swamps of the Democratic Party. Fox News political analyst Lisa Boothe nailed it this weekend, breaking down the left's collective freakout over President Donald Trump's bold move to finally give the White House the upgrade it has been begging for amid the ongoing government shutdown drama. Because nothing says screwed up "priorities" like screeching about chandeliers while the border's wide open and the economy's roaring back to life under Trump 2.0.

Enter Rep. Eric Swalwell, the "Make Believe Ballroom" California Democrat who's still smarting from his 2020 primary flop and that whole Fang Fang spy scandal and his televised fart we all pretended to forget. Swalwell's out here playing kingmaker for 2028, declaring that the next Democratic presidential hopeful better treat Trump's magnificent new White House ballroom like it's the Death Star. He wants it turned to rubble on inauguration morning, or don't even bother showing up to the clown convention they call a primary.

"Don’t even think of seeking the Democratic nomination for president unless you pledge to take a wrecking ball to the Trump Ballroom on DAY ONE," Swalwell wrote on X on Saturday. 

Swalwell's office ghosted Fox News Digital when asked for a follow-up. Shocker. Probably too busy practicing their wrecking-ball swings in a San Francisco safe space.

Funny how it's okay for the left to make rubble out of the White House, but when Trump does it to rebuild a ballroom, it's outrageous.

Now, let's talk about this "Trump Ballroom" that's got the blue-check brigade clutching their pearls like it's the end of Versailles. For the first time in its 200-plus-year history, the people's house is getting a proper formal ballroom: a sprawling 90,000-square-foot masterpiece rising where the East Wing once squatted, all funded by President Trump himself and a cadre of private donors to the tune of $250 million. No taxpayer money, mind you, because unlike the grifters in the Biden-Harris clown car who blew billions on beachfront bunkers, Trump's keeping it classy and crowdfunded.

Back on July 31, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt dropped the mic with the announcement, laying out why this isn't just bling, it's necessity wrapped in elegance. "The White House is currently unable to host major functions honoring world leaders in other countries without having to install a large and unsightly tent approximately 100 yards away from the main building's entrance," Leavitt said, adding the new ballroom will be "a much-needed and exquisite addition."

Picture it: 650 seated guests under crystal domes, classical architecture that screams American grandeur, no more embarrassing pop-up circus tents like we're hosting a state fair for sheikhs and senators. The White House has never had a formal ballroom before. Can you imagine FDR or Reagan settling for a glorified lean-to? But leave it to the woke warriors to turn a triumph into a tragedy.

And don't get me started on the haters whining about the demolition photos, because, newsflash, progress sometimes means saying goodbye to the outdated. Construction kicked off earlier this month, and it's already got the Trump magic touch.

But wait, there's more! 

Trump's not stopping at the ballroom. He's sprinkled gold accents throughout the Oval Office and Cabinet Room like the Midas of MAGA, because why not make the people's workspace look like the winner's circle it is? 

He's unveiled a towering new monument, the "Arc de Trump," a "walk of fame" lined with portraits of our greatest commanders-in-chief, including a cheeky autopen snapshot standing in for Sleepy Joe's "tenure" as a not-so-subtle reminder of who the real placeholders were. 

Joe Biden

Stone pavers now grace the Rose Garden lawn, banishing the mud-pit vibes forever, and two massive 88-foot flagpoles fly Old Glory higher than ever, a middle finger to the flag-burners and kneelers who've tried to dim our shine.

Trump's office gold? The Oval looking like it belongs to a president who actually wins wars and deals, not doodles on classified docs.

This is legacy-building, pure and simple—the kind of bold, unapologetic patriotism that makes the White House worthy of its name again. And Swalwell? He's just the latest sad sack auditioning for the role of village idiot, demanding Dems swear an oath to undo it all because... Trump bad. Folks, if that's their litmus test for 2028, the GOP's got four more years in the bag. Pass the popcorn—and maybe a hard hat for the next round of Democrat demolition derbies.

Trump Team Drops the Silverware Bombshell: Hillary's "Borrowed" China Cabinet Meets Trump's Fancy Footwork Floor

Ah, the White House—where the ghosts of scandals past waltz eternally with the drama of the present. On a recent episode of Fox News' Outnumbered, the panel dove headfirst into the Democratic dust-up over President Donald Trump's latest architectural fever dream: turning a chunk of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue into a ballroom big enough to host the entire cast of Dancing with the Stars... plus their egos.

In a plot twist straight out of a Capitol Hill soap opera, the Trump administration fired back at ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton after she mustered her Twitter troops to torpedo the Prez's 90,000-square-foot privately bankrolled bash palace. Their weapon of choice? A dusty 2001 doozy, accusing the former First Lady of absconding with White House swag like it was Black Friday at the Smithsonian.

"Failed presidential candidate and former First Lady Crooked Hillary stole furniture from the White House on her way out until she was forced to return it," White House spokesman Davis Ingle spilled to Fox News Digital on Wednesday, with the relish of a gossip columnist at high tea. "Crooked Hillary is shameless and a total disgrace."

"Meanwhile, President Trump is restoring the White House to its proper glory for Americans to enjoy for generations to come — at no expense to the taxpayer — something we should all celebrate," Ingle added, because nothing says "unity" like dredging up old linen lists.Clinton, never one to let a renovation go unchallenged, had taken to the digital barricades earlier that October, rallying the masses against Trump's ballroom bonanza—a taxpayer-free extravaganza aimed at shoehorning a mega-entertaining space into the people's palace.

"It’s not his house," Hillary Clinton wrote on X Tuesday morning. "It's your house. And he's destroying it."

Oh, the irony—it hit faster than a dropped soufflé. Conservatives across the spectrum dusted off their 2001 highlight reels, replaying the tale of the Clintons' exit-stage-left luggage lift: an estimated $28,000 in donor-provided White House doodads that got packed up, only to boomerang back after the inventory elves cried foul. The power duo also forked over $86,000 to Uncle Sam for other inaugural swag, all chalked up to a "cataloging error" that sounds suspiciously like "oops, my bad" in legalese.

"Gifts did not leave the White House without the approval of the White House usher's and curator's offices," the Clintons declared in a 2001 statement, the verbal equivalent of crossing fingers behind their backs. "Of course, if the White House now determines that a cataloging error occurred ... any item in question will be returned."

When I asked Grok "did the Clintons take furniture and other things from the Whitehouse" the AI replied: 

Yes, there was a well-documented controversy in early 2001 when Bill and Hillary Clinton left the White House, during which they took several pieces of furniture, artwork, and other household items that were later determined to belong to the government or were disputed by donors. However, the situation is nuanced: many of the items were personal gifts they were legally entitled to accept and keep under federal rules (which allow presidents to retain gifts valued over $375 after disclosure), while others were intended as donations to the White House residence and were returned voluntarily after media scrutiny and donor clarifications.Key Details from Investigations and ReportsWhat Was Taken? Upon departing, the Clintons shipped out about 950 items worth roughly $360,000 in total, including furniture (e.g., sofas, chairs, rugs, and tables valued at around $68,000 overall, with $38,000 kept initially), china, silverware, artwork, lamps, and other household goods. Some furniture had been donated specifically to the White House in 1993 for tax deductions by donors, but the Clintons treated them as personal property based on a 1994 White House Counsel memo.

Returns and Payments: In February 2001, following New York Times and Washington Post reports, the Clintons returned over $28,000 worth of disputed furniture and artwork (about 25 items, including sofas, a table, lamps, and a rug) to the National Park Service, which oversees White House furnishings. They also paid the government $86,000 to reimburse for other personal gifts received in their final months in office. Later that year, two minor items (a $1,725 easy chair and a $675 ottoman) were returned to the Clintons after NPS determined they hadn't been officially accepted as White House property.

So take that in your wet cigar, Hill and Bill.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton slammed President Donald Trump's construction project at the White House to build a ballroom. (Alex Wong/Getty Images) The backlash ballroom? It was a conservative conga line. Lawmakers and meme lords piled on, turning Clinton's tweet into a piñata party.

"At least he didn’t steal the silverware," Texas Sen. Ted Cruz posted to X Tuesday, because nothing disarms a dig like a dash of utensil-based shade.

"Hi Hillary, Remind us, wasn’t it you who walked off with $28,000 in White House furniture when you moved out?" conservative influencer Benny Johnson posted to X. "And your husband who defiled the Oval Office during his presidency? President Trump’s funding a beautiful new ballroom out of his own pocket."

"A Clinton would never defile the White House," former White House staffer Alex Pfeiffer shot back in response, dripping sarcasm thicker than White House gravy.

Fox News Digital pinged Clinton's camp repeatedly for a encore on her ballroom beef and the furniture fiasco mockery, but crickets echoed louder than a empty State Dinner hall.

Meanwhile, over in the demolition derby, the White House had already swung the wrecking ball at the East Wing to make room for Trump's terpsichorean triumph. (The Associated Press) Trump himself broke the glittery ground on Monday, because why whisper when you can trumpet? 

"I am pleased to announce that ground has been broken on the White House grounds to build the new, big, beautiful White House Ballroom," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Completely separate from the White House itself, the East Wing is being fully modernized as part of this process, and will be more beautiful than ever when it is complete!"

"For more than 150 years, every President has dreamt about having a Ballroom at the White House to accommodate people for grand parties, State Visits, etc.," President Donald Trump said. (Getty Images)

"For more than 150 years, every President has dreamt about having a Ballroom at the White House to accommodate people for grand parties, State Visits, etc. I am honored to be the first President to finally get this much-needed project underway — with zero cost to the American Taxpayer!" he continued. "The White House Ballroom is being privately funded by many generous Patriots, Great American Companies, and, yours truly. This Ballroom will be happily used for Generations to come!"

And just like that, the East Room gets an upgrade, the furniture files get a flip, and Washington waltzes on, proving once again that in politics, the only thing more enduring than a grudge is a good grudge match with a side of sequins.

U.S. supported aid to Gaza sees chaos: on Day One 500K meals supplied

In the grand, chaotic theater of human suffering that is Gaza, a new act unfolded this week. The American-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), tasked with executing President Donald Trump’s bold initiative to deliver aid directly to Gazan civilians, has emerged from its first day of operations bloodied but unbowed. 

Over 460,000 meals were distributed, a staggering feat, despite Hamas’s predictable thuggery, stampedes, and the inevitable sniping from the usual quarters. This is no small thing in a land where hope is as scarce as uncontested bread.

The mission is not merely logistical but existential: to ensure that humanitarian aid reaches those for whom it is intended, bypassing the grasping hands of Hamas, who have long treated Gaza’s misery as their personal fiefdom. Hamas had been stealing the aid, keeping the best for themselves, and selling what's left over at exorbitant prices. Since their barbaric October 7, 2023, massacre, the group has made a grotesque art of pilfering aid, turning desperation into profit. 

A source close to one of GHF’s Secure Distribution Sites (SDS) described the day’s opening salvo: a Hamas roadblock, cynically erected to choke off access to the very people the aid was meant to serve. Yet Gazans, in a rare act of defiance, broke through, forming long, snaking lines to claim boxes brimming with flour, sugar, chocolate spread, rice, canned corn, pasta, tea, sunflower oil, tuna, and more. 

Meanwhile back in the USA and UK, people are clamoring in support of Hamas with chants of "free, free Palestine," and "globalize the intifada." Most of them are clueless of what an intifada is and simply Jew haters with a new excuse.

Videos captured the scene—Gazans cheering American contractors, shouting “Thank you, America!” in a spontaneous outpouring of gratitude. Many, according to the source, said this was the first aid they had received without being forced to pay for it during the war. Let that sink in: the first time in this wretched conflict that sustenance was not held hostage by extortion.

Hamas, predictably, recoiled. Their so-called Ministry of Interior issued a chilling edict, branding GHF’s plan to circumvent their authority “completely unacceptable.” “Anyone who cooperates with the occupation in imposing its agenda will pay the price, and we will take the necessary measures against him,” they declared, their words dripping with the menace of a regime that thrives on fear. 

However, GHF, undeterred, stood firm. “It is clear that Hamas is threatened by this new operating model, and will do everything in its power to see it fail,” the group stated. “These threats will not deter us.” Such clarity of purpose is rare in a world often muddied by moral equivocation.

The day was not without its chaos. Viral videos showed GHF contractors retreating from a stampede as Gazans surged toward a gate, desperation momentarily outpacing order. The team, wisely adhering to protocol, fell back to prevent casualties, and calm was swiftly restored. No shots were fired, a small miracle in itself. By day’s end, GHF had distributed 8,000 boxes, each capable of feeding 5.5 people for 3.5 days—462,000 meals in total. More trucks are expected Wednesday, a lifeline for a population teetering on the edge.

How many other countries feeds the civilians of their enemies? Israel has always had higher expectations than countries that, um, bombed Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Dresden, for example.

The White House, they said, is “proud” to back this effort. “The U.N. and other aid agencies were wrong to criticize – aid is getting to the people in need and through their secure distribution system, Israel is kept safe and Hamas empty-handed,” the official added, skewering the sanctimonious hand-wringing of international bodies that seem more comfortable parroting Hamas’s talking points than celebrating results.

 Indeed, Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani noted that over 400 humanitarian aid trucks—unaffiliated with GHF—sit idle in Gaza, uncollected by the U.N.’s designated team. “It’s a strange contrast to the recent lie of 10,000 trucks stuck at the border,” Shoshani wrote. “When the trucks are there, @UNReliefChief is more silent than ever.” One could almost hear the irony in his keystrokes.

Yet GHF faces fire from all sides. Anti-Israel groups dismiss it as a pawn of the Israeli government, while some pro-Israel factions argue that any aid risks prolonging the captivity of the 58 hostages still held in Gaza. GHF, for its part, insists it is apolitical, engaging with Israeli officials only for security and logistics.

“GHF is in communication with Israeli officials solely for the purposes of deconfliction and to ensure aid can be delivered safely,” the group stated. “IDF will not have a presence within the immediate vicinity of the distribution sites.” A spokesman for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denied claims that Israel is funding the mission, leaving one to wonder why the U.N. and certain aid groups spent the weekend undermining an effort that actually delivers. “The media should take a moment to reflect why the U.N. and certain aid groups spent the weekend trying to undermine such an important effort,” the Trump official remarked, with a barb sharp enough to draw blood.

The operation’s security is handled by American military veterans from Safe Reach Solutions and UG Solutions, who escort aid from Israeli border crossings to the SDS, where civilian humanitarian teams take over. “To be clear, security contractors will not be interfacing with the people of Gaza,” GHF clarified, preempting the inevitable accusations. 

Four distribution sites are currently operational. There are three in southern Gaza, one in the central region and there are plans for expansion, including “last-mile” delivery to reach those unable to access the sites. GHF even extends an olive branch to traditional aid organizations, offering its infrastructure to ensure aid is protected from misuse or theft. A noble gesture, though one wonders if it will be met with anything but suspicion.

The story took a poignant turn with the resignation of GHF’s executive director, Jake Wood, who stepped down over frustrations with balancing the mission’s demands against humanitarian principles. “However, it is clear that it is not possible to implement this plan while also strictly adhering to the humanitarian principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality, and independence, which I will not abandon,” Wood said, urging Israel to expand aid provisions. 

His successor, John Acree, brings two decades of experience in disaster response and refugee operations, a steady hand for a mission fraught with peril.

In the end, what unfolded in Gaza this week was not just a logistical triumph but a moral one, a defiant stand against those who would weaponize hunger. The cheers of “Thank you, America!” may fade, but the image of Gazans breaking through a Hamas roadblock to claim what is rightfully theirs will endure. 

For once, the aid reached the people, not the predators. And that, in this grim corner of the world, is no small victory.

Trump, JD square off with Zelenskyy in heated White House meeting with press in attendance

I can't remember a meeting between heads of state being so heated as today's meeting with Volodomyr Zelenskyy, President Donald Trump, and Vice President JD Vance. The meeting devolved into Trump making the point that Zelenskyy never thanked the US for all the money and weapons we gave Ukraine, and this was backed up by Vance. 

I felt as if there was too much transparency at this meeting, ostensibly aimed at working on a new mineral deal with Ukraine.

“Do you think that it’s respectful to come to the Oval Office of the United States of America and attack the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of your country?” Vance asked Zelenskyy. “Right now you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems.

“You should be thanking the president for trying to bring an end to this conflict,” the Vice President added, noting that Zelenskyy was “forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems.”

“During war, everybody has problems, even you, but you have a nice ocean and don’t feel now, but you will feel it in the future,” Zelenskyy replied.

Zelenskyy then invited Vance to visit Ukraine, and Vance accused Zelenskyy of embarking on propaganda tours, which of course they are.

“You don’t know that,” Trump said, cutting in as Zelenskyy continued to try to interrupt. “Don’t tell us what we’re going to feel. … You’re in no position to dictate what we are going to feel. We are going to feel very good. … You’re right now not in a very good position. You’ve allowed yourself to be in a very bad position and [Vance] happens to be right about it.”

“You don’t have the cards right now,” Trump added. “With us you start having cards. You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people. You’re gambling with World War III, and what you’re doing is very disrespectful to the country.”

Vance then cut in, asking Zelenskyy if he had said “thank you” at all during the meeting. It was like he was speaking on behalf of the average American whose money went to fund Ukraine's war with Russia and also his way of supporting Trump.

“You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October,” Vance said. “Offer some words of appreciation to the United States of America and the president who is trying to save your country.”

Zelenskyy responded by accusing Vance of speaking “very loudly,” at which point Trump cut in to defend Vance.

“Your country is in big trouble,” Trump said.

“I know,” Zelenskyy agreed.

The two began arguing about the billions of dollars and military equipment the United States provided to Ukraine.

“It’s going to be a very hard thing to do business like this,” Trump said.

Vance then suggested it would have been better to litigate the disagreements in a meeting, rather than in front of reporters, which is true. There are some things that should go on behind closed doors and the way Zelenskyy was embarrassed, this was one of those times.

“I think that it’s good for the American people to see what’s going on. That’s why I kept this going so long,” Trump said. “You have to be thankful, you don’t have the cards.”

“I am very thankful,” Zelenskyy said.

Trump said that “attitudes have to change” adding that the heated exchange is “great television.”

But is it wise diplomacy? Now both leaders are at loggerheads and neither one wants to give in. 

The meeting began on less fiery terms, with Trump assuring reporters that his recent tensions with Zelenskyy — most notably when Trump referred to Zelenskyy as a “dictator” — had “worked out great.”

Trump added that he had “very good discussions” with Russian President Vladimir Putin and that he’s going to try to bring the war “to a close.” He also called Ukrainian soldiers “unbelievably brave” and said he gives credit to Ukrainian generals.

“I hope I’m going to be remembered as a peacemaker,” Trump said. “This would be a great thing if we can do this. I’m doing this to save lives more than anything else. Second, to save money, but I consider that to be far less important.”

Trump also said that the United States would continue to send arms to Ukraine, but said “hopefully we won’t have to send much, because I’m looking forward to getting [the war] done quickly.” Hopefully, Zelenskyy will get the hint.

Prior to arriving at the White House, Zelenskyy met with a bipartisan group of senators where they discussed military assistance for Ukraine and ending the war. He is expected to do an event with the Hudson Institute at 4:00 p.m.

When greeting Zelenskyy to the White House as he exited his car, Trump quipped “he’s all dressed up today!” Zelenskyy was wearing a black sweater and baggy black pants.

Zelenskyy left the meeting without signing the mineral deal.

That seems to suck for both countries, but mostly for Ukraine.

Compromised News Network's Kaitlan Collins deletes her post promoting alleged murderer Luigi Mangione's defense fund

The CNN Jim Acosta replacement and chief White House 'correspondent' Kaitlin "Lips" Collins likely deleted a social media post after getting mucho blowback for promoting a defense fund for a scumcrumpet who was seen on video shooting Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare.

In the post on X, "Lips" showed a link to a website launched by defense lawyers for Mangione. He faces charges of first-degree murder in furtherance of an act of terrorism, stalking along with other state and federal charges in Pennsylvania and New York, where the crime occurred. The shooting of Thompson, a husband and father of two young children, took place in Manhattan last year on December 4.

Brian Thompson being shot in the back by a coward

Mangione, a smug, 26-year-old comes from a wealthy Maryland family. He was arrested at a McDonald’s in Altoona, PA., on Dec. 9 after a multi-state manhunt.

Following his arrest, immoral followers donated over $300,000 for his legal defense, mainly due to their hatred of American big business, the health care industry, and the fact that he's a fairly good-looking alleged murderer.

Collins’ post garnered criticism from a number of users on X, including The Spectator contributing editor Stephen L. Miller who posted on X: "Real bottom of the barrel stuff. Even for @kaitlancollins,"

He also called Collins out for deleting the post with “no explanation,” saying, “guess it wasn’t White House correspondent related.”

Smug thug pose

WMAL host Larry O’Connor also had something to say about  the situation. He said that  [Collins] “used her considerable platform to promote a link for the defense fund of a cold-blooded killer.”

Yeah, but he's cute when he's angry, right?

Brian Thompson's wife and children

“She has not yet apologized nor has she posted anything else in 24 hours,” he added.

New York Times best-selling author Jack Posobiec  shared his take on Collins’ X post.

“CNN’s Kaitlan Collins promotes Luigi Mangione’s legal defense fund after Mangione [was] shown on video murdering a man in cold blood,” he posted Saturday.

Some folks on X have also suggested Collins should lose her press credentials and access to the White House.

Anyway, I call what Collins did "doing a Kamala."

Bibi heads to White House as first leader to be hosted by Pres. Trump

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu boarded a flight to Washington, D.C., on Sunday ahead of his meeting with President Donald Trump on Tuesday. Netanyahu will be the first foreign leader hosted at the White House under Trump’s second administration.

Before he left, Bibi emphasized the importance of the meeting and outlined the issues to discuss, including defeating Hamas, releasing all of the remaining hostages, and dealing with Iran and its terror proxies.

“I’m leaving for a very important meeting with President Trump in Washington,” Bibi told reporters. “The fact that this would be President Trump’s first meeting with a foreign leader since his inauguration is telling.”

Netanyahu called the honor of him being the first invited a “a testimony to the strength of the Israeli-American alliance” and a “testimony to the strength of our personal friendship.”

Trump’s relationship has been more warm than predecessors former President Barack Obama and former President Joe Biden. Upon taking office, Trump reversed the Biden administration’s hold on 2,000-pound bombs being delivered to Israel.

Netanyahu also touted the accomplishments Israel and the U.S. had under the former Trump administration, including the Abraham Accords.

“That friendship and that cooperation has already yielded important results for Israel and the Middle East, including the historic Abraham Accords that President Trump led and which brought four historic peace treaties between Israel and its Arab neighbors,” he said.

Netanyahu added that while Israel and the Israel Defense Forces successfully weakened their enemies in the Middle East and “redrawn the map,” he believes that with the Trump administration, they can “redraw it even further and for the better.”

“I believe that we can strengthen security, broaden the circle of peace and achieve a remarkable era of peace through strength,” Netanyahu added.

Netanyahu’s visit comes as Trump works to negotiate the release of all hostages held by Hamas terrorists in Gaza. So far, 13 of the 33 hostages slated to be released under the first phase of the deal have been freed, including U.S. citizen Keith Siegel. Seven more Americans are still held hostage. An additional 5 Thai hostages were released under a separate agreement.

In Trump’s invitation letter, he said he was “looking forward to discussing how we can bring peace to Israel and its neighbors, and efforts to counter our shared adversaries.”

“It will be my honor to host you as my first foreign leader during my second term,” Trump added.

The United Kingdom’s former prime minister, Theresa May, was the first to visit Trump at the White House during his first term.

Biden picks another 'winner' with long history of anti-Semitism and anti-law enforcement

One has to scratch one's head and wonder what one often does, what the heck is Biden thinking? Oh wait, maybe he isn't. 

The Biden administration just promoted a White House communication official named Tyler Cherry. The guy has an extensive history of making incendiary anti-Zionist/anti-Semitic comments and has even compared law enforcement to slave patrols.

Cherry was promoted to associate communications director for the White House last week. 

According to his LinkedIn account, Cherry has an extensive record of anti-Semitic comments, especially regarding the Jewish state. The new code word for anti-Semitism is "anti-Zionism." They are the same thing, and don't think otherwise. 

In July 2014, during an escalation between Israel and Hamassholes, the Arab terrorist group that controls the Gaza Strip, Cherry tweeted, “Cheersing in a bar to ending the occupation of Palestine — no shame and f—k your glares #ISupportGaza #FreePalestine.”

The war at that time began after Hamassholes kidnapped three Israelis in the West Bank and murdered them. Even back then, Cherry's allegiances was to the terrorists rather than the allies.

Cherry had also suggested that he supports cutting off US aid to Israel in order for the Jews to be eliminated, because that's exactly what would happen if Hamas and their terrorist jihadis had their way.

In response to news of workers for UNRWA, the UN agency dedicated solely to Palestinian refugees and their descendants, being killed by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in the 2014 war, Cherry lamented that the US “continues to let Israeli forces restock their arsenals with US ammunition and weapons.”

Yeah, why should the, you know, Jews have the right to defend themselves? After all, they're Jews, right?

The overt Jew-hater also wrote, “No words can come close to the ever-increasing disappointment of the US’s omnipotence and complicity in this massacre #Free Palestine,” referring to the 2014 Hamas-Israel war.

So his hatred for Jews and love for Hamas is not something new. This dude, often dressed in drag, has long been a strong defender of anti-Israel activist and Women's March organizer Linda "Allah Akbar" Sarsour. After scrutiny of Sarsour rose due to what some consider to be antisemitic statements by her, Cherry wrote, “The right can’t STAND to see a fierce Muslim woman at the helm of the resistance and thus have to make s**t up to smear her #IMarchWithLinda.”

Actually, nobody needs to make up anything Sarsour stands for. Sarsour has warned against humanizing Jews and refers to them as "the oppressor." In the interview Mehdi Hasan nods along with her in overt agreement. When you dehumanize your enemy, it's a lot easier to kill them and even eliminate their race as one Nazi leader did a long time ago.

It seems quite obvious that Cherry is not going to be a supporter of Israel and what he thinks about the policies of Biden when it comes to the Jewish State. How can any administration allow their staffers to be in opposite alignment with their own ideology?

One watchdog group dedicated to combating anti-Semitism has called on the alleged President to fire Cherry.

“We’re hoping this is the quickest hire and fire scenario in President Biden’s administration to date,” StopAntisemitism founder Liora Rez told Fox News Digital. “For the Biden administration to either A, not vet properly, or B, to vet and then approve an inner circle appointee like this … is just horrifying.”

"How can we vet him?" Biden asked. "He's not a damn dog and I'm not a damn vet."

Moreover, Israel isn't the only thing that crawls in Cherry's bonnet. He also doesn't like immigration enforcement. He called to  “Abolish ICE,” referring to the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement government agency, and he also wrote “police = slave patrols” and “Voter ID = poll taxes.”

So not only is Cherry an anti-Semite, and anti-border enforcement, he's also a divisive dolt, like many DEI hires that have proven this point.

Pro-Hamassholes try to storm White House grounds: DC cops and Secret Service engage

They waved Palestinian flags atop American memorials and did their monkey-see, monkey-do chant, "from the river to the sea, yadda yadda yadda yee." Some even did the "hey hey, ho ho, something something's gotta go." All were ant-Israel/anti-Semitic and supported the terrorists as they did the "March on Washington for Gaza."

They threw objects at the police and the rioters engaged in "destructive behavior," and while no staff member in the White House was injured, they had to be relocated, the Secret Service revealed. Biden was at Camp David at the time of the riot.

Fences were damaged and the so called peaceful demonstrators chanted "Cease fire now," and "Free, Free Palestine." Other chants were "Yemen, Yemen make us proud--turn another ship around." 

It's highly likely the pro-Hamasshole demonstrators were being paid to partake in the antics, but the source of their funding isn't known, nor is it a fact.

"During the demonstration near the White House complex Jan. 13, a portion of the anti-scale fencing that was erected for the event sustained temporary damage," the statement read. "The issues were promptly repaired on site by U.S. Secret Service support teams."

"As a precaution, some members of the media and staff in proximity to Pennsylvania Avenue were temporarily relocated while the issue was being addressed," the statement continued. "The Secret Service made no arrests associated with the march and there was no property damage to the White House or adjacent buildings."

Julio Rosas posted the riot on X and provided the video below:

NBC reported that “people in the U.S. capital held aloft signs questioning President Joe Biden’s viability as a presidential candidate because of his staunch support for Israel in the nearly 100-day war against Hamas.” Some of the signs read: “No votes for Genocide Joe,” "Let Gaza Live, and"“Biden has blood on his hands."

These idiots obviously don't know the meaning of the word 'genocide.' 

The network also pointed out that capitalism was alive and well, however, as  “vendors were also selling South African flags as protesters chanted slogans in support of the country whose accusations of genocide against Israel prompted the International Court of Justice in the Hague, Netherlands, to take up the case.” Of course NBC didn't mention capitalism but you get the point.

Non-essential employees at The White House have been told to leave the building and pro-Palestinian and Pro-Yemen protesters are saying, "Break it down!"

Meanwhile, the January 6 protesters are languishing in prison as anti-Semitism along with anti-America marches on.

Even some Democrats want Tlaib to be censured

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) said Tuesday that House members should consider a vote to censure Rep.[ulsive] Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) due to her refusal to accept US and Israeli findings that show and conclude that Israel was not responsible for the bombing of a hospital parking lot in Gaza, but the Palestinian Islamic Jihad was the most likely perpetrator of the misfired rocket.

Tlaib, a Palestinian-American but mostly Palestinian and far-left member of the so called squad of House anti-Semites, called for an "independent investigation" into the bombing that Hamas claimed [in about 40 minutes] took over 500 Palestinian lives at the al Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City. 

Now that's incredibly fast counting. Literally. It's incredulous.

Tlaib claimed that it is the US and Israel, not Hamas or Palestine, that have  “long, documented histories of misleading the public about wars and war crimes.” So she'd rather believe her Hamasshole terrorists than the government which she represents.

This isn't Tlaib's first time either. On no less than two other occasions she blamed Israel for the bombing and parroted Hamas' claims.

“Look, Congress is unified in its support of Israel,” Moskowitz told Fox News “Outnumbered” co-host Kayleigh McEnany. “I continue to be disappointed in members of Congress who are not willing to listen to US intelligence and listen to the Biden administration, who have said Israel had nothing to do with the issue that happened in the parking lot of the hospital.”

But it's more than Tlaib and Omar and the rest of the squadette idiots spouting this nonsense. The problem is that such bile influences young, undeveloped minds, as we now see in global anti-Semitic calls for the death of Jews.  And it also give aid to the terrorists.

The video, audio and radar Israel obtained has clearly shown the rocket falling into Gaza City came from the same source firing a barrage at Israel, namely the Palestinian Islamic Jidhad (PIJ). Israel doesn't even fire rockets at Gaza and the metal used was from Palestinian sources, according to a phone conversation tapped into by Israeli intelligence of two Hamassholes speaking on the phone.

Both the White House and the Israeli government have determined that the explosion was caused by a misfired PIJ  rocket from the Palestinian side of the border. Period.

PIJ is a smaller, crazier,  more anti-Semitic Palestinian terrorist group that often works with the Hamassholes.

Israeli officials also said several dozen people lost their lives in the blast, rather than the 500 or so who Hamas reported perished. If that number was indeed lost, don't you think Hamas would have laid out the dead for the media to see? 

“There’s no proof of that,” Moskowitz, who is Jewish, said of the 500 person death toll cited by media outlets, including the New York Times, in the immediate aftermath of the blast.

“Any member of Congress who continues to trust Hamas’s information over US information is obviously deeply concerning,” he added.When pressed by McEnany about possibly censuring Tlaib for propagating “terrorist talking points,” Moskowitz indicated that once a new House speaker is in place, a censure should be considered.

When pressed by McEnany about possibly censuring Tlaib for propagating “terrorist talking points,” Moskowitz indicated that once a new House speaker is in place, a censure should be considered.

“Oh, listen, I think once we get a House speaker here, I think that censure resolution will come to the floor. And I do think it’s something that everyone should consider,” Moskowitz said.

“This is about US intelligence. This is about US information. This is about not willing to trust the Biden administration and US intelligence, but instead continuing to pretend like the Ministry of Health out of Gaza is nothing other than a terrorist organization telling people what we want to hear,” he added. “We just heard the leader of Hamas talking about genocide. I mean, good God, it is propaganda to the 10th degree. And people have to stop buying it and they have to listen to the facts.”

Investigations by the Wall Street Journal, CNN and the Associated Press have found evidence that the missile came from the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization — and not Israel — based on television footage they said appeared to show a misfired Palestinian rocket in the air above the hospital.

The New York Times, which initially pinned the bombing on Israel and changed headlines four times, had finally walked back its reporting on Monday, admitting it “relied too heavily” on information from the terror group.

And they did that because they would rather believe someone badmouthing the Jews than those Jews themselves. The Times has a long history of anti-Semitism, but sadly, they're not alone.

Male model with fake breasts and gender dysphoria at White House Pride celebration faces public backlash and embarrasses Biden admin.

After extensive surgical procedures, he's still a guy

Rose Montoya, a man with gender dysphoria, who had artificial breasts installed on his chest, lowered his dress and bared his fake breasts at a White House Pride event on Saturday afternoon, as his way to glorify a mental disorder known as gender dysphoria. Heck, it's sweeping the nation and is even being sponsored by the Biden administration, except when it is not, due to the blowback they're getting from the normal public.

President Biden spoke to the men dressed as women and said the transgender community is "the bravest, most inspiring people [I] have ever known." He appeared on the White House lawn with them and took photos, but now that the public is mostly outraged, the Biden administration is suddenly upset about it all.

Rose Montoya at the White House I had the honor of attending @WhiteHouse Pride, the largest one in history where the pride flag flew for the first time. This is trans joy. We’re here at the white house unapologetically trans, queer, and brown 💕#foryourpride #pridemonth #whitehouse #potus #flotus #dcpride… pic.twitter.com/vpvgYPzH0N — Rose Montoya 👑🌹 (@therosemontoya) […]Rose Montoya/Twitter

There was plenty of anger after Montoya flashed his boob job, even among pro-LGBTQ+1LMNOP supporters.

An even bigger disgrace

Anthony Talbot tweeted: “This pisses me off because there are Trans out there fighting for their lives/rights & then a goofball pulls a stunt like this that’ll be used against the Trans community."

Which trans people out there are 'fighting for their lives/rights out there? It seems they have more rights and no mortal fear than the straight community.

Dana Loesch, a conservative radio host said: “No, this isn’t another hookers-n-blow photo from Hunter’s laptop, it was the Pride party on the White House lawn two days ago hosted by Joe.”

A woman who is an obvious Democrat and uses the handle @VeganBabs tweeted: “Thanks alot #rosemontoya for ****ing up a beautiful event and being disrespectful at the White House.”

'A lot' is two words, Babs. Eat bacon.

Thomas Farrell tweeted: “Why do pride parades make you lose clothes? I’ll never fully understand the correlation between pride and perversion/nudity.”

Well perhaps this is because pride is the opposite of humility, and a little humility wouldn't hurt anyone. But the left has pride and perversion coming out of their collective wazoo and no humility.

One Twitter user simply gave a sarcastic: "Classy".

A Twitter user The Poll Aunt asked: “White house or strip club?”

A Twitter user who goes by Carlos MB said, "No need for that disgusting display by Rose Montoya! One step forward for the movement arriving at the White House...20 steps back for its sexualization!"

I wonder if Hunter got any good photos from the event.
