Trump Signs Order Targeting American-Flag-Burning, Desecration

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Aug. 25 that directs the attorney general to prosecute those caught burning the American flag or desecrating it in other ways.

"If you burn a flag, you get one year in jail," Trump said.

"You will see flag burning stop immediately."

“The people in our country don’t want to see our flag burned and spit on.”

A Supreme Court ruling in 1989, Texas v. Johnson, overturned the law and declared the act of flag desecration protected as symbolic speech under the First Amendment.

“It was a very sad court, a 5–4 decision,” Trump said.

In that case, a Texas court convicted Gregory Lee Johnson of burning an American flag outside the 1984 Republican National Convention in Dallas after marching with protesters.

“The government generally has a freer hand in restricting expressive conduct than it has in restricting the written or spoken word,” Justice William J. Brennan wrote in the court‘s opinion.

“It may not, however, proscribe particular conduct because it has expressive elements.”

The president said the issue goes beyond speech, as it can lead to violence.

“When you burn the American flag, it incites riots,” Trump said.

We give Matt Taibbi the final word on this decision by The White House…

5 Gaza-Based Journalists Killed In Israeli Strike - Associated Press, Al Jazeera Express Outrage

More journalists with Al Jazeera have been killed in the Gaza Strip, the Qatar-based outlet has reported, in an Israeli airstrike which killed a total of 20 people.

Al Jazeera photographer Mohammad Salama is among the dead after a large Israeli aerial attack on Nasser Medical Complex in southern Gaza on Monday, with local sources describing it as a double-tap strike.

Also among the dead are Mariam Dagga, a freelance journalist for The Associated Press, and a Reuters contractor cameraman identified as Hussam al-Masri. Another with Hamas' Quds Feed Network succumbed of his wounds.

The Hamas media office in a statement said, "The journalist colleagues were martyred when the Israeli occupation committed a horrific crime by bombing a group of journalists who were on a press coverage mission at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis Governorate and many martyrs fell victim to this crime."

"We hold the Israeli occupation, the American administration, and the countries participating in the genocide crime such as the United Kingdom, Germany, and France fully responsible for committing these heinous brutal crimes," it added.

The Associated Press has been among international outlets to say it was "shocked and saddened" by Dagga's death (its freelancer). And Reuters detailed:

Cameraman Hussam al-Masri, a Reuters contractor, was killed near a live broadcasting position operated by Reuters on an upper floor just below the roof of the hospital in Khan Younis in an initial strike, according to Palestinian health officials.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the attack but said it did not intentionally target journalists.

"The IDF regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals and does not target journalists as such," the military said in a statement. "The IDF acts to mitigate harm to uninvolved individuals as much as possible while maintaining the safety of IDF troops."

France Summons US Ambassador Kushner After He Accused Macron Of Fostering Antisemitism

France has summoned the US ambassador in Paris over a diplomatic row and surprisingly blunt accusations involving Israel-Gaza policy. The spat started when Ambassador Charles Kushner published open letter to President Emmanuel Macron in The Wall Street Journal on Sunday.

Ambassador Charles Kushner accused the French government of not taking sufficient action to curb anti-Semitic violence, and further that its policies have been essentially rewarding Hamas and emboldening antisemitic violence. Kushner's elder son Jared is the husband of Ivanka Trump, and President Trump has previously given Charles full legal pardon after he was convicted of past illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, and witness tampering in connection with his real estate business, Kushner Companies.

Kushner's open letter condemned France's recent declaration that it will recognize a Palestinian state at the upcoming UN General Assembly meeting in September. It accused the Macron government of fostering policies which "endanger Jewish life in France."

"Public statements haranguing Israel and gestures toward recognition of a Palestinian state embolden extremists, fuel violence, and endanger Jewish life in France," he wrote. "In today’s world, anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism– plain and simple," he claimed.

Kushner then listed off a series of actions President Trump has taken to push back on antisemitism in American society, and then said:

Today, many French Jews fear that history will repeat itself in Europe. Parents encourage their children to emigrate; surveys show most French citizens believe another Holocaust could happen in Europe. Nearly half of French youth report never having heard of the Holocaust at all. What are children being taught in French schools if such ignorance persists?

But Paris has not bowed to these arguments, but swiftly summoned the US ambassador to lodge formal complain.

"France firmly refutes these latest allegations," a Sunday Foreign Ministry statement said. "The allegations from the ambassador are unacceptable." It added that France is "fully committed" to fighting anti-Semitism and that it is not tolerated.

Secret Service Chief Counsel Abruptly Resigns

The Secret Service’s chief counsel Richard Giuditta, who also served as a senior adviser to Director Sean Curran, resigned abruptly late last week after

@RCPolitics

inquired about an alleged “road rage” incident he was involved in with a USSS-issued government vehicle in New Jersey in late July, according to multiple sources familiar with the incident and his departure.

Giuditta, who sources say had no formal training on the use of a government vehicle, inappropriately used lights and sirens on the vehicle, which are supposed to be reserved for law enforcement purposes, the sources allege. The incident involved the Essex County Sheriff’s office, and agents from the Newark Secret Service office were called in to respond, according to these sources. Another civilian driver who was reacting to the alleged "road rage" videotaped the incident, the sources added.

Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said Giuditta left the Secret Service last week and referred all questions about the incident to local New Jersey law enforcement agencies.

“U.S. Secret Service Chief Counsel and Senior Advisor Richard Giuditta has made the decision to leave federal service and return to his law practice,” Guglielmi told

@RCPolitics

. “We thank Mr. Giuditta for his contributions to the Secret Service and wish him the very best in his future endeavors.”

His resignation went into effect on Friday.

Giuditta arrived at the agency in January first as a Trump political appointee, possibly through the Department of Homeland Security, and is close to Director Sean Curran through New Jersey ties, according to sources familiar with the relationship.

After serving as a special adviser, Giuditta then switched to an official civil service role as chief counsel. The Secret Service is supposed to be a nonpartisan agency – the director is the only agency role that presidents appoint.

DEVELOPING…more details to come.

Mexican Senator EXPOSES President Claudia Sheinbaum — Claims She WORKS for the Cartels and Is FUNDED by Narco Money

According to Téllez, cartels are financing candidates, infiltrating government offices, and even dictating national policy. She warned that Mexico is sliding toward the same socialist collapse seen in Venezuela and Cuba, thanks to Sheinbaum’s dangerous alliances.

Lilly Téllez:

“The party has been financed—the cartels have given so much money to these politicians, narco-politicians of Morena, to get into office, to get power. The Mexican government protects the cartels. That is why President Sheinbaum doesn’t want strong American leadership to help Mexico defeat them.

Also, Sheinbaum doesn’t want the rest of the world to know what is happening here in Mexico. We are on the steps to becoming the next Venezuela. She is aligned with Venezuela’s dictator and with Cuba, and we are losing our country.

They have destroyed our republican institutions—the democratic state. I think all Mexicans want and welcome the help of the United States to assist the Mexican people against the cartels that have us in this crisis with fentanyl and migrant trafficking.”

President Sheinbaum tried to defend herself by pointing out that her administration has turned over cartel members and is “sharing intelligence” with the U.S. But Téllez dismissed this as smoke and mirrors.

Rachel Campos-Duffy:

“So her response—I know this because her spokesperson came on our show after your interview—was, “Well, we just turned over 26 cartel members. We’re working. We’re sharing intelligence.” What are they not doing? And why is she so resistant? She speaks out of both sides of her mouth: “We’re working with you, Trump,” and then she chastises you for saying, “We need more help from the United States to crush the cartels.””

Lilly Téllez:

“Because she really doesn’t want the help of the United States. She is lying to the Mexican people, telling them that the United States will take control of the whole country. I have never heard such nonsense from President Trump. What we have heard is that President Trump wants to help the Mexican people against the cartels. Mexican people are suffering. What they do is very, very little. We have huge narco-politicians here—in the Senate, the presidency, and the governorships. Mexico is a very dangerous place.”

By going public, Téllez admitted she is risking her life. She claims Sheinbaum has already threatened to prosecute her criminally to silence her.

Rachel Campos-Duffy:

“You are speaking very bluntly, very clearly, about Mexico being a narco-state and about the alliance and connections to the President of Mexico. Are you afraid for your life?”

Lilly Téllez:

“Yes, I am afraid. The President has threatened me with criminal prosecution to get me out of the Senate and put me in jail, just because I told you here, on Fox News, the reality of our country with the cartels. The cartels are dominating everything here in Mexico. They are in all levels of government—the states, the cities, and the national government.

So of course, I’m afraid. But I want people to know I will not step back. I pray under God’s guidance that the United States and Mexico must work together to defeat the cartels and win freedom for our country—to stop Mexico from becoming the next Venezuela.”

Trump’s Intel Deal Sparks Outrage Over Socialist Control and Corporate Blend

President Donald Trump announced on Friday evening, August 22, 2025, that the federal government has acquired a 10% stake in Intel, a decision he framed as a win for America but one that has left many conservatives, including Rand Paul and Thomas Massie, frustrated, viewing it as an unsettling move toward government involvement in private business.

Why it matters:

This acquisition, facilitated by Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, marks a shift that troubles free-market advocates, who worry it blurs the line between government and corporate control, potentially setting a precedent for more federal overreach in the economy and disappointing those who prioritize individual enterprise.

Driving the news:

The deal, confirmed via Trump’s Truth Social post, involves the U.S. government purchasing 433.3 million Intel shares at $20.47 each, securing a 9.9% stake without voting rights, as part of a strategy to leverage CHIPS Act funds.

The CHIPS Act, enacted in 2022, is a $52.7 billion bipartisan initiative to boost U.S. semiconductor manufacturing and reduce reliance on foreign supply chains, providing grants and loans to companies like Intel.

Lutnick, on CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street,” explained the equity stake, saying, “We should get an equity stake for our money,” converting Biden-era grants into ownership.

Trump credited negotiations with Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan, presenting it as a boost for national security and economic strength, even though he called for his resignation a few weeks prior.

The announcement follows months of discussions to support Intel, which reported $19 billion in losses last year, using taxpayer funds to stabilize it amid global tech competition.

Behind the patriotic tone, the deal suggests a pragmatic use of CHIPS Act funds that some see as a step toward socialism, raising questions about the balance between government support and market freedom.

Bondi Henchman Todd Blanche Offers Convicted Sex Trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell ‘Proffer’ Agreement

He says the government can protect her.

Ghislaine Maxwell was found guilty of sex trafficking of minors and sentenced to 20 years in prison, despite the fact that there are evidently zero victims, and zero co-defendants have been charged.

Despite the clear existence of actual victims, who were minor children at the time Ghislaine and Epstein violated them, Todd Blanche is working assiduously to cut deals for the convicted sex trafficker.

Maxwell’s conviction also covered the fact that she recruited and groomed teenagers for Jeffrey Epstein between 1999 and 2007.

Judge Alison Nathan reduced Maxwell’s sentence from what could have been 55 years for trafficking minors.

Bondi’s Dept. of Justice turned over transcripts from Blanche’s interviews with Ghislaine Maxwell as a part of a Friday afternoon news dump, heading into a holiday week here at the end of the summer.

You can read the transcript of Bondi’s and Blanche’s interviews in which they discuss the proffer agreement here.

You can listen to the audio recordings of Blanche’s and Maxwell’s DOJ interviews here.

Epstein’s and Maxwell’s victims need justice. Donald Trump ran on reversing the two-tiered system of justice — a dangerous judicial trend that exploded during the Clinton and Obama eras, but which certainly existed before hand.

Epstein’s blackmail ring is about more than two-tiered justice. The existence of such rings has rendered all three branches of the U.S. federal government entirely captured.

The United States is confronted with a full-blown crisis of government, in which each of the three branches of the federal government — Legislative, Executive, and Judicial — refuse to provide transparency surrounding the Epstein trafficking and influence operation.

MIT report: 95% of generative AI pilots at companies are failing

State of AI in Business 2025, a new report published by MIT’s NANDA initiative, reveals that while generative AI holds promise for enterprises, most initiatives to drive rapid revenue growth are falling flat.

Despite the rush to integrate powerful new models, about 5% of AI pilot programs achieve rapid revenue acceleration; the vast majority stall, delivering little to no measurable impact on P&L. The research—based on 150 interviews with leaders, a survey of 350 employees, and an analysis of 300 public AI deployments—paints a clear divide between success stories and stalled projects.

To unpack these findings, I spoke with Aditya Challapally, the lead author of the report, and a research contributor to project NANDA at MIT.

“Some large companies’ pilots and younger startups are really excelling with generative AI,” Challapally said. Startups led by 19- or 20-year-olds, for example, “have seen revenues jump from zero to $20 million in a year,” he said. “It’s because they pick one pain point, execute well, and partner smartly with companies who use their tools,” he added.

But for 95% of companies in the dataset, generative AI implementation is falling short. The core issue? Not the quality of the AI models, but the “learning gap” for both tools and organizations. While executives often blame regulation or model performance, MIT’s research points to flawed enterprise integration. Generic tools like ChatGPT excel for individuals because of their flexibility, but they stall in enterprise use since they don’t learn from or adapt to workflows, Challapally explained.

The data also reveals a misalignment in resource allocation. More than half of generative AI budgets are devoted to sales and marketing tools, yet MIT found the biggest ROI in back-office automation—eliminating business process outsourcing, cutting external agency costs, and streamlining operations.

TikTok lays off hundreds of content moderators, replaces them with AI

A week before a unionization vote

It's a sad case of another day, another company laying off hundreds of people as their jobs become automated by AI. This time, the firm in question is TikTok, which is replacing human moderators in favor of artificial intelligence. In what is certainly a coincidence, the layoffs at the London site come just a week before employees were due to vote on unionization.

TikTok's layoffs will mostly impact members of a 2,500-person team based in the UK, though many in South and Southeast Asia will also be affected, writes The Wall Street Journal.

The Communication Workers Union (CWU) says around 300 employees at London's trust and safety department are expected to be affected by the cuts.

The move is part of a larger global restructuring push that will see operations centralized in regional hubs such as Lisbon and Dublin. TikTok also wants to further integrate technical advances such as "the enhancement of large language models" in its moderation approach.

The timing of the layoffs is certainly suspicious. It comes a week before workers at the London site were due to vote on unionization. Sources say company management have been resisting the move, leading to accusations of union-busting from the CWU.

John Chadfield, a national organizer at the CWU, told The Financial Times that TikTok doesn't "want to have human moderators, their goal is to have it all done by AI."

The ByteDance-owned firm told the FT that over 85% of content taken down from its platform for violating its guidelines is identified and removed by AI.

This isn't the first time TikTok has decided that AI can do a better job of moderating platform content than humans. It laid off 500 employees in Malaysia last year, replacing them with AI in what was again framed as a consolidation of certain regional operations.

‘Dangerous escalation’: Syria accuses IDF of incursion into border village

Damascus says dozens of soldiers, including 10 military vehicles raided Beit Jinn; IDF does not immediately comment on alleged operation

Syria on Monday said it “strongly condemns” what it said was an Israeli military incursion into an area in the country’s south, calling it a “dangerous escalation.”

According to Syria’s Foreign Ministry, dozens of soldiers and over 10 military vehicles were involved in a raid in the area of Beit Jinn, which sits near the border with the Golan Heights.

It also condemned Israel’s “control” of an area in the Mount Hermon foothills, saying it is a “blatant violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Syrian Arab Republic.”

The IDF has been deployed to nine posts inside southern Syria since the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in December 2024, mostly within a UN-patrolled buffer zone on the border between the countries.

Troops have been operating in areas up to around 15 kilometers (some nine miles) deep into Syria, including Beit Jinn, aiming to capture weapons that Israel says could pose a threat to the country if they fall into the hands of “hostile forces,” as Iranian-backed groups did during Assad’s rule

Netanyahu says Israel is ‘ready to support’ Lebanon in disarming Hezbollah

After Beirut orders plans to disarm Iran-backed terror group, Jerusalem pledges ‘reciprocal measures,’ including a phased withdrawal of IDF troops from posts in the country’s south

Israel is “ready to support” Lebanon’s efforts to disarm Hezbollah and will implement a phased reduction of its military presence in Lebanon as a “reciprocal measure,” the Prime Minister’s Office said in a statement on Monday.

If the Lebanese Armed Forces “take the necessary steps to implement the disarmament of Hezbollah, Israel will engage in reciprocal measures, including a phased reduction of IDF presence in coordination with the US-led security mechanism,” the statement reads.

“Israel stands ready to support Lebanon in its efforts to disarm Hezbollah and to work together towards a more secure and stable future for both nations,” it continued.

The comments issued by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office come nine months after Israel and Lebanon reached a ceasefire deal following a year of cross-border fighting that escalated in September 2024 before the agreement was signed in November. Israel has maintained a military presence in five key points in southern Lebanon and continues to strike Hezbollah targets in the country.

On Monday, alongside the comments from Netanyahu’s office, a Hezbollah operative was killed in an Israeli drone strike in the southern Lebanon town of Tebnine, the military said.

According to the IDF, the operative was involved in restoring Hezbollah military infrastructure in the nearby town of Beit Lif, which the IDF called a violation of the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. The Lebanese health ministry reported one dead in a strike on a car in Tebnine. The strike is the first since the IDF said it hit a Hezbollah arms depot on Friday.

Barrack said in Beirut last week that Israel should honor its commitments under a November 2024 ceasefire, in light of Beirut’s decision to work toward Hezbollah’s disarmament.

“I think the Lebanese government has done their part. They’ve taken the first step. Now what we need is Israel to comply,” Barrack said following a meeting in Beirut with Lebanese President Aoun.

Asked by reporters about whether he expected to see Israel fully withdraw from Lebanese territory, Barrack said that “that’s exactly the next step” needed.

Israel probably missed chance to flip narrative at ICC, but still has chance at ICJ

The volatile mix of politics and law is always a piece of international court cases, but when cases are on the fence, the impact of that mix looms larger.

In April of this year, Israel had a rare legal win before the Appeals Chamber of the International Criminal Court.

It was one of those unique moments when Israeli lawyers could stand a bit taller when arguing that trying to plead the Jewish state's legal defense is worthwhile and not futile.

And if the IDF would bother to make its case regarding the war, in many areas, Israel had a serious case to defend its war choices and actions.

Also, if Israel had not allowed the food security situation in Gaza to drop to a dangerously precarious point, and maintained the humanitarian aid levels from the January to March ceasefire months, it would have continued to have taken away the ability to make "starvation" claims, which had mostly gone quiet for a period of months.

Finally, if the IDF had learned its lesson from some dozens of incidents where it mistakenly killed aid workers or journalists in sensitive areas like hospitals, then with Hamas's 24 battalions defeated back already in summer 2024, it did not need to risk attacking such targets anymore. Rather, it could have avoided new high profile tragic incidents which lend fuel to the fire and makes judges worry that if they give Israel a pass, there will be more alleged war crimes or large-scale mistaken deaths incidents.

'You’re part of genocide': Chilean synagogue targeted by anti-Israel vandals

The Jewish Community of Chile's representative body condemned the attack in a Sunday X/Twitter post, warning that acts of hatred could not be normalized.

A Santiago synagogue was vandalized on Friday night, according to the Jewish Community of Chile and Israeli ambassador to Chile Peleg Lewi.

Lewi said that the gate of the Bikur Cholim Synagogue, which is in limited use by the Jewish community, was sprayed with red paint and plastered with a poster that depicted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with a bullet hole in his forehead.

“If you keep silent, you’re part of genocide,” read some of the graffiti. Police are investigating the incident and taking the matter seriously, said Lewi.

Antisemitic incidents are rare in Chile, the ambassador explained, noting there had only been a few minor incidents in recent years. Lewi said it was important that calm be sought and that the conflict in the Middle East not be exported to Chile.

The Jewish Community of Chile's representative body condemned the attack in a Sunday X/Twitter post, warning that acts of hatred could not be normalized.

Trump tells Maryland governor to 'clean up this crime disaster' in Baltimore, offers to send troops

“After only one week, there is NO CRIME AND NO MURDER IN DC! When it is like that in Baltimore, I will proudly ‘walk the streets’ with the failing, because of Crime, Governor of Maryland,” Trump wrote on Truth Social

President Trump responded on Sunday to Maryland Democratic Gov. Wes Moore, who had called on the president to “come walk the streets with us.”

Trump said Moore should lower crime and clean up Baltimore first.

Trump also suggested that he might “rethink” the decision to give money for the bridge that had collapsed in Baltimore after a cargo ship accident.

“Governor Wes Moore of Maryland has asked, in a rather nasty and provocative tone, that I ‘walk the streets of Maryland’ with him,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “I assume he is talking about out of control, crime ridden, Baltimore? As President, I would much prefer that he clean up this Crime disaster before I go there for a ‘walk.'”

Trump argued Moore has a “very bad” record on crime in the state and said he would send troops if he “needs help, like Gavin Newscum did in L.A.”

“After only one week, there is NO CRIME AND NO MURDER IN DC! When it is like that in Baltimore, I will proudly ‘walk the streets’ with the failing, because of Crime, Governor of Maryland,” Trump wrote.

"P.S. Baltimore is ranked the 4th WORST CITY IN THE NATION IN CRIME & MURDER,” Trump continued. “Stop talking and get to work, Wes. I’ll then see you on the streets!!!”

This week, Moore challenged Trump to see the streets of Baltimore up close amid his crackdown on crime in the nation's capital.

“I’d love for the president to take us up on our offer and actually come walk the streets with us,” Moore said on NewsNation.

'I will give the money, you will build the Temple,' Smotrich tells Jerusalem mayor

In response, Moshe Lion replied to Bezalel Smotrich: "You are the best finance minister Jerusalem has ever had."

Against the backdrop of the change in policy on the Temple Mount, Finance Minister (RZP) Bezalel Smotrich spoke to thousands of participants at a conference marking the anniversary of Rabbi Kook’s passing on Sunday.

Smotrich spoke twice during the event, which took place at the Jerusalem International Convention Center. His first speech in the afternoon addressed the ongoing war.

When Smotrich took the stage for a second time, in front of the thousands of people present, Smotrich smiled at Jerusalem Mayor Moshe Lion and said, "I will give the money, you will build the Temple." The crowd burst into laughter, and sources who were there told Walla that Smotrich said it "as a joke."

In response, Lion replied to Smotrich: "You are the best finance minister Jerusalem has ever had."

While it was intended as a joke, it comes at a time when there is, in fact, a de facto shift in the policy surrounding the Temple Mount.

Israel engineered October 7 the cover up continues!

IDF Public Defender disapproves of Comptroller's Office October 7 probe

IDF public defender remains steadfast in assertion that State Comptroller's Office should stay within its jurisdiction and not be allowed to carry out investigation.

The IDF Public Defender issued an “urgent update” to the High Court of Justice on Monday, warning that State Comptroller Matanyahu Englman is advancing his officer’s probes into the failures surrounding the October 7 massacre attack into areas that are out of his jurisdiction – and must remain reserved for a State Commission of Inquiry.

The update comes on the heels of a petition that was filed in June by the public defender against the State Comptroller’s Office, along with a request for an interim order, which asks the court to preserve the status quo or regulate the conduct of one of the parties – until the case can be decided.

Last week, the office announced that it reached out to secure meetings with the most senior figures in the state, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former defense minister Yoav Gallant, former IDF chiefs of staff Herzi Halevi and Aviv Kohavi, and other military officials from the rank of brigadier-general and above.

All this, to secure a better grasp on the extent and breadth of the failures on the state and governance level pertaining to October 7. Some of the specific aspects Englman seeks answers to are the security outlook that created the opportunity for the attack to even take place, the protection of the Gaza border, and the state of the treatment of Palestinian prisoners since October 7, among over 35 other topics.

Former Supreme Court pres. Hayut joins Rhodes Scholarship committee in Israel

Rhodes is the oldest scholarship program in the world. Established at Oxford University in 1903, next year’s edition will mark a decade since the program arrived in Israel.

Former Supreme Court justice Esther Hayut will join the selection committee of the Rhodes Scholarship’s $300,000 program in Israel, helping select the next two recipients of the award, it announced on Monday.

“I believe Israeli scholars need to be at the international table where ideas, values, and futures are shaped,” Hayut said. “The Rhodes Scholarship represents a tradition of intellectual courage and serious engagement.”

“At a time when public discourse often polarizes and divides, it is more important than ever to champion depth, nuance, and integrity. I am proud to support young Israelis who embody those qualities,” she continued.

Rhodes is the oldest scholarship program in the world. Established at Oxford University in 1903, next year’s edition will mark a decade since the program arrived in Israel.

Since it became active in the country in 2016, 18 Israeli students, known as Rhodes Scholars, have received the comprehensive package that includes full tuition for 2-3 years of postgraduate study, a living stipend, housing, and airfare.

According to the organization, the deadline for applications is October 15, 2025. In order to apply, students must be up to 27 years old, have an Israeli passport, have resided in Israel for at least five of the past 10 years, and maintain a minimum GPA of 3.7 (93).

“The Israel Rhodes selection committee member and former deputy governor of the Bank of Israel, Dr. Nadine Baudot-Trajtenberg, received the scholarship some 30 years ago, as a resident of Canada, before immigrating to Israel,” the organization said.

Doron Weber, the national secretary for the Rhodes Scholarships for Israel, said, “The Rhodes Scholarship represents academic excellence in a wide range of fields, but it also honors exceptional leadership, character, and public service. It’s a platform for nurturing original thinkers and bold, principled leaders.”

“During difficult times when divisions run deep, and certain problems may seem intractable, it is imperative that Israeli voices of every stripe remain part of the global conversation, bringing their experience, empathy, and sense of purpose to the challenges facing our world,” Weber added.

Other notable Rhodes Israel alumni include Nadav Lidor, the co-founder of the fintech infrastructure company Weav, which Brex acquired for $50 million, and Lian Ryan-Hume, the first Arab-Israeli Rhodes Scholar, who now leads the Trust & Safety Policy for TikTok in the Middle East.

Previous winners’ alma maters include Tel Aviv University, the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, the Hebrew University, Reichman University, and the University of Haifa.

If ALL Vaccines Are Unsafe And Ineffective, Then Why Are They Being Foisted on Humanity?

There is not a single vaccine that is safe, effective, or in any way necessary; in fact, all of the major vaccines are actually far worse than the diseases they fraudulently purport to protect against; to wit:

The reason that the Modified mRNA slow kill bioweapon “vaccine” is not even included in the cited infographic is because it radically increases your chances of contracting COVID-19, not to mention suppresses the p53 protein which prevents cancer, while also permanently genetically modifying the human genome with the highly carcinogenic SV40 promotor sequence…

U.S. Ambassador Kushner Triggers Diplomatic Row With Letter Demanding France Do More For Israel

Charles Kushner, the convicted felon father of Jared Kushner who was pardoned by President Trump and appointed US Ambassador to France, triggered a diplomatic row on Sunday by writing a letter to France accusing them of not doing enough for Israel.

From Kushner's open letter published in the Wall Street Journal [Emphasis added]:

A Letter to Emmanuel Macron

Public statements haranguing Israel embolden extremists, fuel violence, and endanger Jewish life in France.

By Charles Kushner | Aug. 24, 2025 1:36 pm ET

Dear President Macron,

On the 81st anniversary of the Allied Liberation of Paris, which ended the deportation of Jews from French soil, I write out of deep concern over the dramatic rise of antisemitism in France and the lack of sufficient action by your government to confront it.

Antisemitism has long scarred French life, but it has exploded since Hamas’s barbaric assault on Oct. 7, 2023. Since then, pro-Hamas extremists and radical activists have waged a campaign of intimidation and violence across Europe. In France, not a day passes without Jews assaulted in the street, synagogues or schools defaced, or Jewish-owned businesses vandalized. Your own Interior Ministry has reported antisemitic incidents even at preschools.

Public statements haranguing Israel and gestures toward recognition of a Palestinian state embolden extremists, fuel violence, and endanger Jewish life in France. In today’s world, anti-Zionism is antisemitism—plain and simple.

President Trump and I have Jewish children and share Jewish grandchildren. I know how he feels about antisemitism, as do all Americans. He directed the Education Department to enforce civil-rights protections for Jewish students on university campuses, making clear that harassment and discrimination won’t be tolerated. He expanded resources for the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security to safeguard synagogues and Jewish schools. He ordered strict vetting to bar entry for foreigners espousing antisemitic hatred and revoked visas for foreign agitators. He oversaw the deportation of Hamas sympathizers and cut funding to organizations promoting antisemitic incitement. And by crippling Iran’s nuclear-weapons program, he struck directly at the world’s leading state sponsor of antisemitism and terror and saved millions of lives. These measures prove that antisemitism can be fought effectively when leaders have the will to act.

[…] Mr. President, I urge you to act decisively: enforce hate-crime laws without exception; ensure the safety of Jewish schools, synagogues and businesses, prosecute offenders to the fullest extent; and abandon steps that give legitimacy to Hamas and its allies.
