7. An evident rise in anti-Semitism is leading the White House to create the first-ever National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia to tackle “Islamophobia.” There is no drastic increase on this issue, this is the White House’s way of appeasing its base calling for a humanitarian pause, which will not work.
6. Former President Donald Trump has offered his full endorsement of U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Saks) as qualifying for 2024 is now open. This endorsement should scare away pretty much anyone wanting to challenge Rogers
