    Rosie O'Donnell, Donald Trump's citizenship feud caps decades of taunts and jabs
    From name-calling to online spats, Rosie ODonnell and President Donald Trump have gone head-to-head with each other for nearly two decades. Now, their long-standing feud has escalated after Trump threatened to revoke the comedian's U.S. citizenship months after she fled to Ireland.During an appearance on the Irish radio show, "Sunday with Miriam," O'Donnell opened up about the contentious back and forth with the president of the United States and explained why she's "very proud" to stand up against him after all these years."He still uses me as a punching bag and a way to sort of rile his base," O'Donnell, 63, said. "And I'm very proud to be opposed to every single thing he says and does and represents. I think he's a racist, and he's misogynistic, and he's sexist, and he is a danger to women and children all over the world."ELLEN DEGENERES BACKS ROSIE O'DONNELL AFTER TRUMP THREATENED TO REVOKE HER U.S. CITIZENSHIPOver the weekend, Trump claimed that O'Donnell is a "threat to humanity.""Because of the fact that Rosie ODonnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship," Trump wrote in a post to his social media platform Truth Social. "She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!"TRUMP THREATENS TO STRIP ROSIE O'DONNELL'S U.S. CITIZENSHIP AS HE SAYS SHE'S A 'THREAT TO HUMANITY'O'Donnell quickly responded to Trump's jab in several posts that she shared on her social media pages."The president of the USA has always hated the fact that i see him for who he is - a criminal con man sexual abusing liar out to harm our nation to serve himself," she wrote. "This is why i moved to Ireland - he is a dangerous old soulless man with dementia who lacks empathy compassion and basic humanity."The decades-long feud stems back to 2006 after O'Donnell criticized him on "The View" about his decision to be lenient toward a Miss USA winner who had been accused of drug use and other bad behavior.O'Donnell who was a co-host on "The View" at the time said Trump is "not a self-made man" but a "snake-oil salesman on Little House On The Prairie."Trump responded to the criticism by calling O'Donnell a "real loser" and "a woman out of control."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERIn 2011, after O'Donnell announced her engagement to then-girlfriend Michelle Rounds, Trump took to social media to share his thoughts."I feel sorry for Rosie s new partner in love whose parents are devastated at the thought of their daughter being with @Rosiea true loser."The next year, Trump made a surprising remark after O'Donnell suffered a heart attack."Rosie, get better fast. Im starting to miss you!" he wrote on X (Twitter at the time).In 2014, O'Donnell told People Magazine that the criticism she got from Trump was the worst bullying she had been through."Probably the Trump stuff was the most bullying I ever experienced in my life, including as a child," ODonnell said. "It was national, and it was sanctioned societally. Whether I deserved it is up to your own interpretation."Trump responded to her comments by tweeting, "RosieNo offense, and good luck on the new show, but remember, you started it!"In 2016, ODonnell publicly endorsed presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and wrote on X, "HE WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT."Shortly after Trump claimed victory over Clinton in November of that same year, O'Donnell wrote "god help us all. i am not scared - i am sad - for all of us - for humanity."Last year, O'Donnell stayed engaged during the election, frequently posting videos on TikTok, including one when she warned people, "You can't forget what he's capable of. This is not a sane person. This is a madman. You gotta get ready for what's coming. When democracy falls, fascism takes its place."ROSIE O'DONNELL FLEES US AFTER TRUMP WIN, WONT RETURN UNTIL IT'S SAFE FOR ALL CITIZENS TO HAVE EQUAL RIGHTSIn March, O'Donnell confirmed she had fled the U.S. for Ireland."Its been pretty wonderful, I have to say," the 62-year-old said in a video on TikTok. "And the people have been so loving, so kind and so welcoming. And Im very grateful.""Although I was someone who never thought I would move to another country, thats what I decided would be the best for myself and my 12-year-old child," she explained."I miss my other kids," she added of her five grown children. "I miss my friends. I miss many things about life there at home. And Im trying to find a home here in this beautiful country. And when it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America, thats when we will consider coming back."The "A League of Their Own" star added that its "heartbreaking to see whats happening politically and hard for me personally as well. The personal is political, as we all know."She added that she was "sorry" to her fans who were worried about her and missed her.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS"I just felt like we needed to take care of ourselves and make some hard decisions and follow through and now, as were getting settled, I was ready to post this and tell everybody whats going on.""The Flintstones" star said she encourages everyone to "stand up, to use their voice, to protest, to demand that we follow the Constitution in our country and not a king, not a man and we dont have cruelty as part of our governing style."That same month, President Trump criticized O'Donnell and her decision to move to Ireland during his White House meeting with Irish Taoiseach Michel Martin.When a reporter asked Irish Prime Minister Martin why he allowed the American comedian to move to the country, Trump was quick to respond."Ireland is known for very happy, fun-loving people," a reporter noted to Martin at the White House. "Why in the world would you let Rosie ODonnell move to Ireland? I think she is going to lower your happiness."Before Martin could answer, Trump chimed in and replied, "Thats true. I like that question. Do you know you have Rosie ODonnell? Do you know who she is? Youre better off not knowing."The day before Saint Patricks Day, ODonnell published a poem, "Him," on her Substack, commenting on her long feud with Trump.The Trump White House responded to O'Donnell's poem via an exclusive comment to Fox News Digital with a simple "Good riddance!"Fox News Digital's Brie Stimson contributed to this post.

    MORNING GLORY: Just how bad were the Biden and Harris campaigns?
    After the disastrous debate performance by President Joe Biden on June 27, 2024, President Donald Trump and his team were jubilant. Bidens team was crushed. And Senate Democrats were in an absolute panic.Josh Dawsey, Tyler Pager and Isaac Arnsdorf are out with a new book on last years tumultuous presidential campaign. Like "Fight" by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes and "Original Sin" by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, "2024" has within it much that is familiar, as well as many blasts of new details.The most stunning reveal of the book comes on pages 182-184, wherein the dynamics of a Democratic Senate Conference gathering at the offices of the Democratic Senatorial Committee are recounted.BIDEN AIDES PUSHED FOR EARLY DEBATE TO SHOW OFF BIDENS STRENGTH, EXPOSE TRUMPS WEAKNESS, BOOK SAYSEvery Democratic senator was present save for Jon Tester and Sherrod Brown, and the account is both full of hysteria and is pretty hysterical to read. (Senator Alex Padilla recited the Serenity Prayer, for example, and when Senator John Fetterman demands a show of hands of support for Biden and only Fetterman, Delawares Chris Coons and Tammy Duckworth of Illinois raise their hands.)Stuck into the account of this gathering is the demand from "Jack Reed of Rhode Island [who] said two independent neurologists should evaluate Biden and release their findings."Think about that. Reed is the ranking Democrat on the Senate Armed Services committee and a serious man. West Point. Harvard Law. Genuinely respected by his colleagues on both sides of the aisle. While many in his caucus are worried about politics, Reed is worried about whether President Biden has cognitive impairment.What Tapper and Thompson established with great detail in their book that hundreds and hundreds of Democrats at the partys highest levels had deep concerns about Biden Dawsey, Pager and Arnsdorf largely avoid confronting while detailing like no other book to date the incredible dysfunction of both the original Biden campaign and its successor Harris campaign.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION2024 is the stuff of nightmares for Democrats, nightmares that are not going away anytime soon. Can anyone in the partys circle of consultants and donors actually run a campaign? The Beltway elites of the left are very long in the tooth and perhaps more angry with each other than they are with President Trump. The knives came out right after the Biden debate (Nancy Pelosi put hers into Bidens back; Chuck Schumer drove the dagger in from the front. Now lots of folks are carving up their rivals through interviews with book writers.)While Democrats have fallen into depression and denial, President Trump is marching from victory to victory. That is in part because hes done the job before and knows exactly what he wants and partly because hes got Susie Wiles as his chief of staff. I dont know Wiles, but the portrait Dawsey, Pager and Arnsdorf paint is compelling on the facts of Wiles competence and character (and that of Chris LaCivita, Wiles principal deputy on the campaign) as well as the bulk of Team Trump 2024.Hugh Hewitt is a Fox News contributor, and host of "The Hugh Hewitt Show," heard weekdays from 3 pm to 6 pm ET on the Salem Radio Network, and simulcast on Salem News Channel.

    New study reveals threats to the Class of 2025. Fixing them should be Job No. 1 for America
    This summer should be bringing the Class of 2025 a moment of well-deserved relaxation before they launch their careers. Instead, far too many college and high-school graduates are filled with anxiety. Theyve applied for dozens, perhaps hundreds, of jobs, but interviews and offers have become increasingly rare. The national unemployment rate for young adults aged 20 to 24 looking for work is 6.6% the highest level in a decade, excluding the pandemic unemployment spike. Among those without college degrees the situation is even more dire: The unemployment rate for high-school graduates aged 18 to 19 is 14.5%.The precipitous reduction of entry-level hiring has been blamed on tariff-induced economic uncertainty and employers betting that artificial intelligence advances will reduce labor needs. Once there is greater clarity on both fronts, many expect hiring to increase.ILLINOIS' POPULATION IS AGING 'FASTER' THAN THE REST OF THE COUNTRY, EDITORIAL WARNSBut what if this is more than a short-term blip? A major new study by research consultancy HarrisX, funded by our family foundation, reveals that school-to-work pathways for millions of young Americans both those with and without college degrees are far more deeply fractured than previously known, posing a significant threat to building the future workforce essential to growing the U.S. economy.More than four in 10 young people say both the education system and the employment resources to which they have access are broken and not providing them effective guidance. And they worry employment will become even more difficult as AI impacts the job market: Nearly half said they feel unprepared, or are unsure of their preparation, for jobs of the future.MIKE ROWE WARNS OF DECLINING WORK ETHIC PROBLEM AS YOUNGER GENERATION 'SNOWFLAKES' FACE FEWER CONSEQUENCESThe study reveals how a broad swath of Generation Z between 16 and 24 years old remains far from tapping its full potential because of systemic inertia that leaves too many young people stranded at the start of their careers.Many young people are not being adequately served by the institutions they encounter at every stage of their journey into adulthood, from high schools that do not expose students to a range of careers and non-college training pathways to achieve good jobs, to employers who are unwilling to invest in building hard and soft skills among new hires. This broken marketplace has significant consequences for the future of the U.S. economy, particularly efforts by the Trump administration to increase domestic industrial production, which will require a larger pipeline of skilled workers.Our nation has millions of open jobs more than 7 million of them, according to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The problem for the Class of 2025, and many other jobseekers, is that the skills taught in our high schools and colleges arent aligned with what many businesses need, especially advanced manufacturers.NEARLY HALF OF GEN Z ADMITS TO LYING ON JOB APPLICATIONS, SURVEY FINDSMany of those unfilled jobs and more so in the future require applicants to possess more than just a high-school or college degree. Yet too many young adults lack the guidance and resources to acquire the necessary skills and credentials.Too often, adults fault young people for not demonstrating more initiative and gumption in their journey into working life. But everyone who engages with young adults is responsible:Nearly 80% of parents rely on their own dated personal experiences and input from friends and family as opposed to outside resources to guide their children.Eighty-five percent of educators and career navigators dont collaborate with employers.More than three-in-four employers require at least a year of experience from those seeking entry-level jobs, yet most do not offer internships, apprenticeships or other programs designed to provide early-career experience.GEN Z BRANDED AS THE 'MOST GULLIBLE GENERATION' AFTER NEW ANALYSIS OF MEDIA HABITSHaving been connected to a Fortune 500 company for three decades, we know well the pressure to use every dollar to grow the bottom line. But our businesses and our overall economy wont thrive over the long run if firms dont invest in creating new opportunities for workers.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONOne of the innovations at Starbucks of which we are most proud has nothing to do with coffee. It was the decision to offer every Starbucks barista the opportunity to launch new careers by enrolling online at Arizona State University for free. To date, more than 16,000 of them have graduated with bachelors degrees vaulting many into new roles inside and outside the company, with an average pay increase of $40,000 within 18 months.The alarming headline about recent graduates should bolt us out of our complacency. Too many of our systems were designed for a different era. The old model of earning a degree and staying with one employer for decades no longer fits todays dynamic workforce. The challenge now is to build a better marketplace one that is nimble, forward-looking, and grounded in the realities of a global, tech-driven economy. That marketplace requires embracing the power of AI to help repair what it is destroying: AI-powered agents and other tech tools that can help young people navigate options with more clarity. By surfacing internships, training programs, and regionally relevant opportunities, we can meet students with the right guidance at the right time.We need more relevant insights about emerging opportunities, the value of different pathways and credentials, and labor-market disruptions. We also must embrace a fundamental change in how we all learn, from a learn-then-work model to a world of lifelong learning, hands-on skills, and fluid pathways across industries.As ASU President Michael Crow puts it, the mission of education is not to "complete" a student; it is tolaunch a learner for life.Only then can this generation achieve a real chance to rise and achieve a new American Dream. This is moment to build a future that delivers progress not just for the Class of 2025, but for every class after them.Sheri Kersch Schultz is co-founder and chair of the Schultz Family Foundation.

    Scientists crack the code on new vaccine for deadly plague bacteria
    Israeli researchers have developed a new vaccine that is "100% effective" against a bacteria that is deadly to humans.The announcement came from Tel Aviv University, which teamed up with the Israel Institute for Biological Research to create the mRNA-based vaccine, which is the first to protect against bacteria."In the study, we show that our mRNA vaccine provides 100% protection against pneumonic plague (a severe lung infection), which is considered the most dangerous form of the disease," study co-lead Professor Dan Peer, director of the Laboratory of Precision NanoMedicine at Tel Aviv University, told Fox News Digital.ARIZONA RESIDENT DIES OF PNEUMONIC PLAGUE, THE FIRST DEADLY CASE IN AREA IN NEARLY 20 YEARS"Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of plague, is considered a highly lethal infectious bacterium, against which no approved vaccine exists."This bacterium is so lethal, even at small doses, that it has been classified as a "Tier 1 select agent" by the CDC and is considered a "potential bioterror weapon," according to Peer."Several natural local outbreaks have been recorded in the past few years, indicating that Y. pestis still poses a risk to the human population," he noted.The researchers tested the novel mRNA vaccine in animals infected with the bacteria, a university press release stated.BUBONIC PLAGUE IN THE US: DO YOU NEED TO WORRY ABOUT CATCHING THE RODENT-BORNE DISEASE?"Within a week, all unvaccinated animals died, while those vaccinated with our vaccine remained alive and well," the team reported, noting that a single dose provided full protection after two weeks.The findings were published in the journal Science Advances.Before this study, mRNA vaccines were only shown to protect against viruses, such as COVID-19, but not bacteria, according to Tel Aviv Universitys Dr. Edo Kon, who co-led the study."Until now, scientists believed that mRNA vaccines against bacteria were biologically unattainable," said Kon in the announcement. "In our study, we proved that it is, in fact, possible to develop mRNA vaccines that are 100% effective against deadly bacteria."While vaccines for viruses trigger human cells to produce viral proteins, which then train the immune system to protect against them, that same method hasnt been effective for bacteria.Instead, the scientists used a different method to release bacterial proteins that successfully created a "significant immune response.""To enhance the bacterial protein's stability and make sure that it does not disintegrate too quickly inside the body, we buttressed it with a section of human protein," they wrote. "By combining the two breakthrough strategies, we obtained a full immune response."Dr. Jacob Glanville, CEO of Centivax, a San Francisco biotechnology company, reiterated the importance of the study."This is distinct from research in coronavirus, influenza and cancer, which have so far been driving mRNA vaccine applications," Glanville, who was not part of the research team, told Fox News Digital.The study shows how mRNA technologies can be rapidly applied to "novel threat areas," he confirmed."Following blowback from the mandates and rare but admittedly problematic side effects related to initial COVID-19 vaccines, mRNA as a platform has faced additional scrutiny to make sure that the next generation of vaccines to emerge from it has learned the lessons from the initial vaccines, and improved upon them," Glanville told Fox News Digital."This research demonstrates yet another large application area for the technology."The primary limitation of the study, according to Peer, is that the vaccines effectiveness was shown in mice."As with any pre-clinical study, it needs to be evaluated in a clinical study in order to assess its effectiveness in humans," he told Fox News Digital.In addition, the experimental mRNA vaccine is based on the "lipid nanoparticle (LNP) mRNA vaccine platform" that was recently approved for COVID-19 vaccines, Peer noted, which requires "cold chain logistics" (a supply chain that uses refrigeration)."Nevertheless, extensive studies are performed in our lab, focusing on lipid formulation stability optimization that will enable room-temperature storage," the researcher added.The goal is for this new technology to fast-track vaccines for bacterial diseases, according to the researchers. This could be particularly beneficial for pathogenic (disease-causing) and antibiotic-resistant bacteria."Due to excessive use of antibiotics over the last few decades, many bacteria have developed resistance to antibiotics, reducing the effectiveness of these important drugs," said Peer."Consequently, antibiotic-resistant bacteria already pose a real threat to human health worldwide. Developing a new type of vaccine may provide an answer to this global problem."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTERAs Peer pointed out, the quick development of the COVID-19 vaccine was based on years of mRNA research for similar viruses."If tomorrow we face some kind of bacterial pandemic, our study will provide a pathway for quickly developing safe and effective mRNA vaccines."As this was a pre-clinical proof-of-concept study, Peer noted that several major milestones still need to be fulfilled before this vaccine could be considered for commercial rollout.However, he believes that in an emergency situation, the vaccine could be scaled up and prepared in a "relatively short time."For more Health articles, visitwww.foxnews.com/healthPeer concluded, "Beyond addressing the threat of plague outbreaks and potential bioterrorism, this study opens the door to developing mRNA vaccines against other antibiotic-resistant bacteria, offering a powerful new strategy to combat rising antimicrobial resistance and improve global pandemic preparedness."The study was supported by the European Research Council, the Israel Institute for Biological Research and the Shmunis Family Foundation.

    LIZ PEEK: Democrats' identity crisis shows no sign of getting better. It's actually getting worse
    The Democratic Party has no leader and no message. Thats not a right-wing talking point; thats the findings of a poll commissioned by a Democrat SuperPAC.As reported by The Hill, a survey conducted between May and June by Unite the Country showed voters perceive the Democratic Party as "out of touch," "woke" and "weak."Worse, perceptions and confidence in the party have actually soured since last years election, when Democrats not only lost the presidency, but also the Senate and the House. Democrat support from White men, Hispanic men and working-class voters in general has collapsed to below 35%.The poll is especially worrisome for Democrats in that it surveyed voters across 21 swing counties in 10 battleground states the regions which will determine the outcomes of future elections.RAHM EMANUEL ADMITS HIS PARTY IS 'LESS POPULAR THAN ELON MUSK' IN SCATHING CRITIQUEWhat can Democrats do to turn their prospects around? For starters, according to the survey, find new leaders who will talk about issues that matter to people, and particularly economic issues. Also, get back to common sense, which the party has rejected.Can anyone be surprised by these findings? After all, Democrats with unerring aim find themselves on the wrong side of almost every issue. Biological boys competing in girls sports? Check. Open borders? Check. Opposing school choice? Check.Most recently, Democrats rallied in support of Glass House marijuana farms in California which were raided by ICE, even though the facility employed hundreds of people in the country illegally, including at least 10 children. Among the 361 illegals caught were criminals reportedly convicted for rape, kidnapping, burglary, hit and run, and DUI. Also detained were more than a dozen children, including one who is 14 years old, raising concerns about child trafficking.As ICE agents descended on the farm, they came under vicious assault from immigration activists and protesters.TOP DEMOCRATS ADMIT 'FAILURE,' FECKLESSNESS ON BORDER IN SCATHING NY TIMES REPORTCalifornia Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, who was laying the groundwork in South Carolina for a presidential run when the riots broke out at the pot facility, posted this on X: "Instead of supporting the businesses and workers that drive our economy and way of life,Stephen Millers tactics evoke chaos, fear and terror within our communities at every turn," speaking of the White House deputy chief of staff for policy and United States homeland security adviser. Californians were likely surprised to hear their "way of life" depended on illegal underage labor.MAMDANI'S FAILURE TO WALK BACK THESE POSITIONS COULD CAUSE RECKONING IN DEMOCRATIC PARTY: 'FIVE-ALARM WARNING'Washington states Democratic Rep. Pramilla Jayapalhas accused ICE officers of acting "like a terrorist force" while Gov. Tim Walz smeared ICE agents as the "modern-day Gestapo." Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson describes ICE agents as "secret police" and says theyre "terrorizing our communities." Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, New York Congressmen Jerry Nadler and Dan Goldman and many others have condemned ICE workers. The upshot of this reckless vitriol is that ICE agents have suffered a 700% increase in violent assaults even as they work to protect our communities.Democrats should note that in last years election, voters turned out to elect Donald Trump, who vowed not only to secure our border but also to deport people in this country illegally. Reflexively opposing Trump in this ambition is also to oppose the will of American citizens. Last month, a CBS News/YouGov poll showed a majority of the country supports President Trumps deportation program, and a plurality thinks the effort is making the country safer. Other polls have indicated overwhelming support for deporting criminals.ZOHRAN MAMDANI PRESS CONFERENCE ABRUPTLY ENDS WITH AIDE PULLING HIM AWAY DURING REPORTERS QUESTIONSIt isnt just President Trumps immigration policies that Democrats oppose; its every move he makes. That brings them, for instance, to vote for a $4 trillion tax hike, which would have clobbered our economy. Even billionaire Democrat Mark Cuban is appalled by his party, noting on a recent podcast that Democrats only plan of action is to complain about the president. "Thats the underlying thought of everything the Democrats dot," Cuban said, "Trump sucks." As he said, "Thats not the way to win. Its just not."While the current disarray in the Democratic Party is heartening for Republicans, it carries risks not only for the GOP but, more importantly, for the country. Searching for new leadership and new ideas could well encourage the rise of the likes of Zohran Mamdani the Democratic Socialist now leading the mayoral race in New York.Mamdani has burst on the scene promising to deliver free bus rides, free childcare, cheaper food via government-run grocery stores and cheaper housing via rent caps. None of it is real, but for hard-up voters searching for candidates who offer new ideas, the pitch resonates.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONShamefully, leading Democratic Representatives like Jerry Nadler and Adriano Espaillat have endorsed this fraud who pretends to have working-class roots and to despise billionaires, even as his campaign is funded by the very rich and he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Mamdani is a big champion of public schools but attended pricey private schools and an expensive liberal arts college.Worse, Mamdani, who is Muslim, is openly anti-Israel and widely viewed as antisemitic. How can a candidate who has called to "globalize the intifada" lead a city that is home to 1.3 million Jews the largest Jewish population outside Israel? Is anyone paying attention?Establishment Democrats are scared to death of Mamdani and his fanatical Democratic Socialist supporters, who have threatened to primary any who stand in their way. Millions of dollars are flowing from billionaire George Soros son Alex to promote this candidate who rails against the wealthy and to challenge his opponents.This is a test for todays Democrats. If they follow Mamdani down his Socialist (President Trump and others say Communist) path and allow the 33-year-old snake-oil salesman to become the face of the next generation, they will further shrink their popularity. Most Americans, outside the coastal elites responsible for so much misfortune for Democrats, disagree with Mamdanis leftist policies and will increasingly disengage from a party that celebrates him.If not, we are all in trouble.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM LIZ PEEK

    'Squad' members 'decide to lie and twist facts' about Israel's history, says prominent Arab activist
    Members of the"Squad" are undermining coexistence between Arabs and Jews in the Middle East, Israeli-Arab activistYoseph Haddad told Fox News Digital."Representatives of the Squad are trying to harm the coexistence and partnership that exist in the region between Arabs and Jews," Haddad said. "I think it was [Alexandria]Ocasio-Cortez herself who said she had no idea about the geopolitics of this regionshes right. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib know exactly whats going on here, but they decide to lie and twist the facts."Haddad, the CEO of Together Vouch for Each Other an organization founded in 2018 by young Israeli Arabs to bridge cultural and religious divides has emerged as a prominent voice in Israels public diplomacy efforts following Hamas Oct. 7, 2023 massacre.Since the attack, Jewish communities across the United States and Europe have faced asharp rise in antisemitic incidents, with pro-Hamas demonstrations appearing on college campuses as early as October 8.LAWSUIT ALLEGES ANTI-ISRAEL GROUP LEADERS ARE 'HAMAS' FOOT SOLDIERS IN NEW YORK CITY'"The first group is what I call the useful idiots people who have no idea whats going on but joined because it felt like the cool thing to do," Haddad said. "Then there are the paid protesters. You see the same faces at different rallies holding different signs sometimes its about LGBTQ issues, sometimes its pro-Palestinian, sometimes its about internal American problems.""Its always the same person, just a different outfit and a different sign," he continued. "And the third group the most dangerousare the extremists whove come from the Middle East. Those are the ones we should be most concerned about."Haddad traced the rise of extremist voices in the West to waves of immigration and population displacement from conflict zones in the Middle East. While the majority of Muslim immigrants fled persecution in search of a better life, he said, a vocal minority brought with them the ideology of theMuslim Brotherhood, effectively holding their communities hostage."When you have so many immigrants all around the world, its enough for 10 or 20 percent of them to be extremists and suddenly, youre dealing with millions of extremists," he said."Ostriches, when there is a danger and there is a problem, what they do is they stick their head in the sand thinking the problem will just pass because nobody will notice them," he added. "And this is what the weak governments are doing right now, becoming like an ostrich. The only problem is that no one will skip them over, it will make it easier to chop their heads off."Addressing accusations that Israel enforces anapartheid system between Jews and Arabs, Haddad rejected the comparison outright.HARVARD DEAN'S COUNCIL MEMBER RESIGNS FROM POST AFTER LAWSUIT CLAIMS HE 'AIDED AND ABETTED' HAMAS"In real apartheid, like in South Africa, everything was segregated transportation, hospitals, courts, sports, even walking on the sidewalks," Haddad said. "But if you actually come to Israel and see life here, its the complete opposite 180 degrees different.""Stop speaking from a place of emotion thats exactly what The Squad is doing," he continued. "Start talking about facts. Then youll realize that anyone who concludes Israel is an apartheid state is an imbecile."He also mentioned a run-in he had with a protester, who he refers to as "the useful idiots."They have no clue One time, I read the charter of Hamas to some pro-Palestinian useful idiot, I read it to them, and I said you agree to this, and they said no, no, no I didnt know that. And I said yes, but this is what you are supporting, and he had the headband of Hamas on his head. You understand that this is what you are supporting."He literally took the band off after that. Such useful idiots like this you have a lot, not just in the United States, you can see it in Europe as well."When asked what he believes the Palestinians ultimately want, Haddad pointed to slogans often heard at anti-Israel and antisemitic protests, such as "Fromthe river to the sea, Palestine will be free" and "There is only one solution: Intifada revolution.""The majority of Palestinians do not want to live side by side with Israel," Haddad said. "So when people talk about a two-state solution and question Israels commitment, I say: Dont ask the Israelis ask the Palestinians. Youll be shocked to find that many of them arent willing to accept it."Haddad pointed out that history can be approached in multiple ways through religious texts like the Torah for Jews, the Bible for Christians and the Quran for Muslims. Even those who are atheists can look to history books for evidence of the deep-rooted connection of the Jewish people to the land of Israel.Haddad argued that the Torah explicitly mentions the presence of Jews in Israel, tracing their presence back thousands of years. He also highlighted the Biblical reference to the birthplace of Jesus in Jewish Bethlehem, challenging the notion that Palestinian Muslims have a historical claim to the land before the Jews.Haddad noted that while Jerusalem is never mentioned in the Quran, the term "sons of Israel" appears more than 43 times. He also emphasized that the name "Palestine" was imposed by the Romans as a punishment for the Bar Kokhba revolt.Haddad highlighted that in 1947, Arabs hadthe opportunity to establish a Palestinian state through the U.N. Partition Plan, which the Jews accepted despite receiving less land and fewer resources. However, the Arabs rejected the plan and opted to wage war. When the Jews emerged victorious, 156,000 Arabs remained within what became Israel. Sharing his personal connection to this history, Haddad explained that his grandfather was one of those Arabs who stayed and eventually became part of the Arab Israeli identity."Its either you accept the fact that Israel exists and is here to stay, or you continue with this cycle of bloodshed and death that we are trying to escape," said Haddad. "But the ones who will suffer the most are you,the Palestinians, whether in the West Bank or Gaza."Several requests for comment sent to Reps. Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib and Omar were not returned.

    Largest teachers union slams 'unlawful' cuts to Department of Education after Supreme Court ruling
    The president of the nation's largest teachers' union, the National Education Association, slammed the Supreme Court's ruling on Monday for siding with the Trump administration on dismantling the Department of Education."Everyone who cares about Americas students and public schools should be appalled by the Supreme Courts premature intervention in this case today, which stays preliminary relief ordered by the lower courts. Todays decision does not resolve the underlying merits of Trumps unlawful plan to eliminate the Department of Education," Becky Pringle said in a statement.She added, "Parents, educators, and community leaders wont be silent as Trump and his allies take a wrecking ball to public schools and the futures of the 50 million students in rural, suburban, and urban communities across America. We will continue to organize, advocate, and mobilize until all students have the opportunity to attend the well-resourced public schools where they can thrive."The Supreme Court cleared the way for the Trump administration to fire hundreds of Department of Education employees, a move that advances President Donald Trump's plans to dismantle the department. The high court's decision in McMahon v. State of New York was issued 6-3 along ideological lines.The decision temporarily pauses an order by a lower court judge that had reinstated roughly 1,400 employees at the Department of Education.In March, Education Secretary Linda McMahon laid off half of the department's workforce as part of the Trump administration's broader reduction in government efforts. Later that month, Trump announced in an executive order that he planned to shutter the department altogether.TRUMP ADMIN ASKS SUPREME COURT TO LIFT INJUNCTION BLOCKING DISMANTLING OF EDUCATION DEPARTMENTThe Supreme Court's order arose from two lawsuits, including one brought by 20 Democratic-led states that challenged the Education Department's layoffs and planned closure.McMahon praised the ruling, vowing that the federal agency can now "carry out the reduction in force to promote efficiency and accountability and to return education back to the states.""Today, the Supreme Court again confirmed the obvious: the President of the United States, as the head of the Executive Branch, has the ultimate authority to make decisions about staffing levels, administrative organization, and day-to-day operations of federal agencies," McMahon said on X. "While todays ruling is a significant win for students and families, it is a shame that the highest court in the land had to step in to allow President Trump to advance the reforms Americans elected him to deliver using the authorities granted to him by the U.S. Constitution."

    House Republicans showcase they 'took action' with passage of Trump's 'big, beautiful bill'
    FIRST ON FOX: As the messaging battle over the GOP's sweeping domestic policy package takes center stage in the battle for the 2026 midterm elections, the House Republican campaign committee is launching its first ads since President Donald Trump signed the massive measure into law."Republicans took action with President Trump to make America more affordable again, passing a Working Families Tax Cut, saving families thousands a year. Plus, no tax on tips and a tax cut on Social Security, benefiting workers and seniors," says the narrator in new ads from the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC).The ads, which will run digitally nationwide, were shared first with Fox News on Tuesday. The spots will be backed by a modest ad buy, according to officials.The Republican-controlled House and Senate, in near-party lines, two weeks ago narrowly passed the measure, known as the "one big, beautiful bill." And the president signed the bill into law during a July 4 ceremony at the White House.THE BATTLE OVER THE 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL' MOVES FROM CAPITOL HILL TO THE CAMPAIGN TRAILThe measure is stuffed full of Trump's 2024 campaign trail promises and second-term priorities on tax cuts, immigration, defense, energy and the debt limit.It includes extending the president's signature 2017 tax cuts and eliminating taxes on tips and overtime pay.By making his first-term tax rates permanent they were set to expire later this year the bill will cut taxes by nearly $4.4 trillion over the next decade, according to analysis by the Congressional Budget Office and the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.POLITICAL FIGHT OVER BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL IS FRONT-AND-CENTER IN KEY SENATE RACEThe measure also provides billions for border security and codifies the president's controversial immigration crackdown.And the new law also restructures Medicaid the almost 60-year-old federal program that provides health coverage to roughly 71 million low-income Americans.The changes to Medicaid, as well as cuts to food stamps, another one of the nation's major safety net programs, were drafted in part as an offset to pay for extending Trump's tax cuts. The measure includes a slew of new rules and regulations, including work requirements for many of those seeking Medicaid coverage.The $3.4 trillion legislative package is also projected to surge the national debt by $4 trillion over the next decade.WHAT'S ACTUALLY IN TRUMP'S BIG BEAUTIFUL BILLDemocrats for months have repeatedly blasted Republicans over the social safety net changes."BREAKING: House Republicans vote to kick 17 million people off health care," the headline in an email from the Democratic National Committee to supporters emphasized moments after the bill passed the House earlier this month.House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries charged that "extreme House Republicans just approved the largest cut to Medicaid and food assistance in American history to fund tax breaks for their billionaire donors."And Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) chair Rep. Suzan DelBene pledged that "the DCCC will make sure every battleground voter knows how vulnerable House Republicans abandoned them by passing the most unpopular piece of legislation in modern American history, and were going to take back the House majority because of it."Democrats spotlighted a slew of national polls conducted last month, before the measure was passed into law, that indicate the bill's popularity in negative territory.But Republicans have also been going on offense, targeting Democrats for voting against tax cuts."Republicans are delivering real relief while Democrats deliver excuses. President Trump and House Republicans are cutting taxes, lowering costs, and putting working families first, just like we did before, and just like well do again," NRCC spokesman Mike Marinella told Fox News in a statement on Tuesday.And NRCC chair Rep. Richard Hudson of North Carolina, in an opinion piece published earlier this month, charged that House Democrats "rejected common sense" by voting against the bill."And we will make sure each one of them has to answer for it," he vowed, as he pointed to next year's congressional elections, when the GOP will be defending its razor-thin majority in the House.
