Netanyahu Blasts Trump’s Gaza Peace Plan, Claims Composition of Gaza Executive Board “Runs Contrary” to Israeli Policy – Israel National Security Minister Calls for “Return to War with Enormous Force”

Israel may be displeased with President Trump’s Gaza Peace Plan, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has surprisingly come out claiming that the President’s Gaza Executive Board was “not coordinated with Israel and runs contrary to its policy.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump announced that the “Board of Peace,” which will be headed and chaired by himself, has been formed as the Trump Administration enters Phase Two of the 20-point Gaza Peace Plan announced last September.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Middle East Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Jared Kushner, Apollo Global Management CEO Marc Rowan, World Bank Group President Ajay Banga, and Trump adviser Robert Gabriel were announced as members of the "founding Executive Board" on Friday.

Additionally, the White House announced that Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and senior Qatari diplomat Ali Al-Thawadi would serve on the Gaza Executive Board to support the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza and "support effective governance and the delivery of best-in-class services that advance peace, stability, and prosperity for the people of Gaza," sparking rebuke from Netanyahu.

The Resurgence of the Black Panthers – Armed Resistance Against ICE

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/resurgence-black-panthers-armed-resistance-against-ice/

“Won’t no ICE agent ever run up on me! I’ll put a hole in their chest the size of a window.” Chairman Paul Birdsong of the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense said at an ICE protest in Philadelphia in a recent interview.

Armed members of the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense have become more visible in Philadelphia following the January 2026 self-defense shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. The group appeared at anti-ICE protests at Philadelphia City Hall carrying military-style weapons, including a semiautomatic shotgun, which Birdsong displayed while advising his followers to obtain more powerful weapons than those carried by ICE.

Birdsong told reporters that federal agents attempting to enforce immigration law should expect violent resistance: “If you think you about to come and brutalize the people while we’re standing here, f— around and find out.” Birdsong said members attended the protest the day after the Minneapolis shooting and claimed their presence could have prevented the killing.

US Ends Aid to Somalia After Locals Torch and Loot Warehouse Filled with 76 Tons of US-Donated Food

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/us-ends-aid-somalia-after-locals-torch-loot/

Such a grateful country!

They really appreciate all of the US taxpayer donated food sent their way.

The United States ended taxpayer-funded food aid to Somalia after local officials torched and looted the stockpiles of food stored in a local warehouse.

There is even video of the mass looting!

The US State Department released a statement after the warehouse was destroyed.

This is the same country that is shipped suitcases of US dollars each week.

It appears the Somalians in Africa are not very appreciated for the US assistance.

It’s about time the US focused their foreign aid in a different direction.

US Kills Al-Qaeda Leader Connected to Attack on US Forces in Syria

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/us-kills-al-qaeda-leader/

US forces executed a strike in Syria on Friday and killed an Al-Qaeda leader in response to the attack on US forces last month in Palmyra, Syria, that killed two Iowa National Guardsmen.

The target in the strike, Bilal Hasan al-Jasim, was “affiliated with Al-Qaeda who had direct ties to an ISIS terrorist responsible for an ambush which killed two U.S. service members and an American interpreter on Dec. 13, 2025,” US Central Command said.

“Bilal Hasan al-Jasim was an experienced terrorist leader who plotted attacks and was directly connected with the ISIS gunman who killed and injured American and Syrian personnel last month in Palmyra, Syria,” they added. Continue…

Amid a Myriad of Problems, Ukrainian Air Defense Is Now Running Out of Ammo

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/amid-myriad-problems-ukrainian-air-defense-is-now/

One problem too many for Kiev?

If you look at the surface, Ukraine doesn’t seem to be doing so bad. Leader Volodymyr Zelensky is still cruising the world with the same studied smile and the same defiance.

However, if you look deeper, the full picture of the desperate situation facing the Kiev regime comes into focus. Continue…

The $134 Billion Betrayal: Inside Elon Musk’s Explosive Lawsuit With OpenAI

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/134-billion-betrayal-inside-elon-musks-explosive-lawsuit-openai

Elon Musk’s lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft has evolved into a high-stakes dispute over whether OpenAI stayed true to the mission it was founded on or quietly outgrew it while relying on that original promise.

Musk is seeking between $79 billion and $134 billion in damages, a figure derived from an expert valuation that treats his early funding and contributions as foundational to what OpenAI later became. While the number is enormous, the heart of the case is simpler: Musk argues he helped create and fund a nonprofit dedicated to AI for the public good, and that OpenAI later abandoned that commitment in a way that amounted to fraud.

According to Musk’s filings, his roughly $38 million in early funding was not just a donation but the financial backbone of OpenAI’s formative years, supplemented by recruiting help, strategic guidance, and credibility. His damages theory, prepared by financial economist C. Paul Wazzan, ties those early inputs to OpenAI’s current valuation of around $500 billion.

The claim is framed as disgorgement rather than repayment, with Musk arguing that the vast gains realized by OpenAI and Microsoft flowed from a nonprofit story that attracted support and trust, only to be discarded once the company reached scale, according to TechCrunch. Continue…

Ahead Of Mass Adoption Cycle: A Full Supply-Chain Breakdown Of Smart Glasses

https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/ahead-mass-adoption-cycle-full-supply-chain-breakdown-smart-glasses

Smart glasses took center stage at CES 2026 in Las Vegas last week, highlighting a new generation of AI-enabled eyewear integrated with real-time assistants.

In Meta's case, the push is clearly toward affordability and mass adoption, positioning these glasses as everyday consumer electronics rather than super expensive niche hardware for elites.

A lesson for smart glasses manufacturers is not to repeat Apple's misstep with the prohibitively priced Vision Pro, which crushed any chance of widespread adoption and eventually led to the exodus of developers.

Before affordable smart glasses hit the consumer market this year and next, Goldman analyst Jerry Shen published a clear, straightforward view of the AI and AR glasses supply chain, breaking it down by the companies that supply the critical components behind these devices.

We suspect demand will accelerate this year after a Bloomberg report earlier this week revealed that Meta has asked its smart-glasses manufacturing partner, EssilorLuxottica, to double production capacity for AI-powered smart glasses by year-end.

Trudeau's Emergency Powers Ruled ILLEGAL

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2026-01-17/trudeaus-emergency-powers-ruled-illegal

The Trucker Protest was "No Threat To National Security."

The Federal Court of Appeal has determined that the Liberal government improperly and illegally invoked the Emergencies Act (Canada’s equivalent to martial law) to disperse the convoy demonstrations in downtown Ottawa in February 2022.

This ruling, issued on Friday, rejected the federal government’s challenge to a 2024 lower court judgment that declared former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s invocation of the act unjustified and a violation of demonstrators’ rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

The three-judge panel emphasized that, despite the inconvenience and disruption caused by the protests, these events did not rise to the level of a genuine threat to national security. The judges stated that cabinet lacked sufficient reasonable grounds to conclude such a threat existed, thereby failing to meet the strict statutory requirements for invoking the legislation.

“There was no evidence that the lives, health or safety of the people living in Ottawa were endangered (as annoying, stressful and concerning as the protests were),” the decision noted. Continue…

World Economic Forum Braces for Donald Trump’s Return to Davos

https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2026/01/18/world-economic-forum-braces-for-donald-trumps-return-to-davos/

U.S. President Donald Trump will attend the World Economic Forum (WEF) annual gathering in Davos, Switzerland, this week as he continues to challenge the established world order with a series of geopolitical victories and the promise of more to come.

Since returning to the White House the president has withdrawn from numerous wasteful and unaccountable international organizations, including the U.N. climate treaty, captured Venezuela’s socialist dictator Nicolas Maduro following an attack on the capital Caracas and is now looking to annex Greenland.

He has also challenged members of the NATO alliance to step up and start paying their way without relying so much on U.S. taxpayer dollars.

Trump will be joined this year by more than 60 heads of state and government at the snowy confab of corporate and cultural elites. Continue…

Hundreds Protest Against Communist China’s ‘Mega Embassy’ in London

https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2026/01/18/hundreds-protest-against-communist-chinas-mega-embassy-in-london/

Hundreds of people on Saturday rallied in London against Beijing’s controversial new “mega” embassy, days ahead of a decision on the plan.

Protesters, their faces mostly covered with scarves or masks, chanted “No to Chinese embassy” and waved flags reading “Free Hong Kong. Revolution now”.

Others held up placards with slogans such as “MI5 warned. Labour kneeled”, referring to the UK’s domestic intelligence agency and Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s ruling party.

Others read: “CCP (Chinese Communist Party) is watching you. Stop the mega embassy.” Continue…
