The conservative media star Tucker Carlson, who has conducted sympathetic interviews of the Tates, told The Times, without evidence, that he believed their arrests were related to their outspoken criticism of Israel. "After decades of ignoring grooming gangs and covering for Jeffrey Epstein, the British and American governments seemed to have lost interest in prosecuting sex crimes," Mr. Carlson said. "Then the Tate brothers criticized Israel, and I was reminded that under certain circumstances they're willing to act."
Trump went along with Netanyahu. In June, 2025, the Israelis conducted an extended assault that appeared partly aimed at overturning the Iranian government. After about a week, Trump directed the U.S. military to join in a night of air strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, perhaps because he feared missing out on a chance to take credit for the blow. But when Trump and Netanyahu launched a surprise attack eight months later, Secretary of State Marco Rubio explained that, this time, the President had decided to strike Iran "preëmptively," because "there was going to be an Israeli action" that "would precipitate an attack against American forces." Trump later claimed, unconvincingly, that he'd taken the lead with the Israelis and might even "have forced their hand"; Rubio's account more credibly suggested that the Trump Administration had believed it couldn't stop Israel from launching an attack but would nonetheless shoulder any backlash—a pattern painfully familiar to the Biden White House.

In an attempt last month to mollify the U.S. leader, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte went to Washington to hail the "Trump Trillion" - the $1.2 trillion that European allies and Canada have added to defense spending since Trump came to power in 2017. As leaders converged on Ankara, Rutte hosted a "big reveal" event to showcase the many deals planned for that money — much of it to be spent on U.S. companies, creating thousands of jobs for Americans.

Wagenknecht founded BSW in 2024 after breaking away from the far-left Die Linke party to launch what she described as a movement of "left conservatism" that blurred the traditional left-right divide. While advocating traditionally left-wing policies such as an expansive welfare state, she also embraced some anti-immigration positions and pursued a Moscow-friendly foreign policy, echoing the AfD's positions.

"Interpol didn't used to write political songs (few people did, at the time). "I don't like politics, I like the human spirit," says Banks. The absurdity of today's political landscape changed that. "We live in a world where all of these arguments come down to how you can shape the hearts and minds of people who are susceptible to rhetoric," he continues. "I feel bad for people who give the benefit of the doubt to evil men because they can't fathom that someone could be so evil. They're good people, and it couldn't even enter into their consciousness that a person could be so damaged that they will actually hurt history. That someone would lie so much about an election. Because he's the president."
X post: These sentences are a travesty and totally unjustified, but that's the point. Americans hate the fascist Trump regime, so the only way they can try to cling to power is brute force. NSPM-7 is a grave threat to all of us and more bullshit "terrorism" charges like these are coming.

For certain Viennese on the left, the rot set in as early as July 1927, when the Social Democrat city council had apparently allowed the police to gun down eighty-nine of their own supporters. These people had been protesting against a court verdict releasing three right-wing paramilitaries who had killed two of their own in an ambush. In retaliation, the protestors stormed and set fire to the city's Palace of Justice, provoking the police into their murderous assault. As well as the dead, another 500 or so were injured. The Social Democrat mayor, Karl Seitz, had tried to persuade the demon- strators to disperse before the police charged in, but to no avail.

Authoritarians want fear, silence, and isolation. We choose joy. We choose community. We choose people power. Rise Up, Sing Out is about reclaiming patriotism as something inclusive, participatory, and rooted in care for one another - not power, pageantry, or one person's spotlight.

Benjamin Netanyahu with a bipartisan group of senators in July 2025. Booker is standing second from right.
The dozens of interviews that CNN conducted with both men and women also revealed that there is an unwritten list of male lawmakers – made up primarily of House representatives where there are many more members than the Senate – notorious for inappropriate or predatory behavior. Several people simply referred to that roster as the “creep list.” More than half a dozen interviewees independently named one California congressman for pursuing female staffers; another half dozen pointed to a Texas congressman for engaging in inappropriate behavior. CNN is not naming either of those lawmakers because the stories are unverified. “Amongst ourselves, we know,” a former Senate aide said referring to sexual harassers and their behavior. “There is a certain code amongst us, we acknowledge among each other what occurs.”
Harris writes that Biden's unpopularity hurt her in 2024, and that one of the reasons was because of Biden's "perceived blank check to [Israeli leader] Benjamin Netanyahu in Gaza." • She argues thatthe conservative Netanyahu didn't care about Biden's loyalty to Israel. "He wanted [Donald| Trump in the seat opposite him. Not Joe, not me."
I'm not arguing that criticizing Democrats is never fair game, and certainly Gaza isn't the only reason Trump won. But despite many voters' frustration with the two-party system, American elections remain binary choices; elevating a divisive issue for one side definitionally risks helping the other, and it's clear that making Gaza the preeminent moral question of the race for some voters ended up flattening important differences between the candidates that also carried stakes. One of those, it turns out, was over Iran. About a month before the election, after the Islamic republic launched a barrage of missiles at Israel, Harris vowed that she would "never hesitate to take whatever action is necessary to defend U.S. forces and interests against Iran and Iran-backed terrorists." Yet she also told voters that diplomacy was her "preferred path" to stopping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, criticized Trump for ripping up the deal the Obama administration struck to prevent that, and pledged to "work with our allies and partners to disrupt Iran's aggressive behavior and hold them accountable." Does that sound like a politician who would have blundered into a war of choice against her advisers' counsel, at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's urging, and without the support of many U.S. allies?
SWALWELL NAMED IMPEACHMENT MANAGER January 12, 2021 • Press Release WASHINGTON, D.C. - House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tonight appointed Congressman Eric Swalwell (CA-15) an Impeachment Manager for the second impeachment trial of President Donald Trump. Swalwell released the following statement: "America is under an attack incited by President Donald Trump. Lives have been lost and future plans are in place to stop a transition of power. A president's greatest responsibility is to protect American lives and defend American ideals. Donald Trump has failed to do both. For the safety of all Americans and the continuity of our experiment in self-governance, Donald Trump must be removed from office. "Tomorrow, I will join a bipartisan group of my colleagues in voting to impeach Donald Trump for inciting a deadly attack on the Capitol. It is a solemn privilege to be named an Impeachment Manager. I vow to work collaboratively with the Impeachment Managers team to make a case to the Senate for conviction and removal."
