Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in the space of a “couple of weeks,” the White House says, as US President Donald Trump debates whether to take military action against the Islamic Republic. “Iran has all that it needs to achieve a nuclear weapon. All they need is a decision from the supreme leader to do that, and it would take a couple of weeks to complete the production of that weapon,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt tells reporters.

US President Donald Trump is considering joining Israel to strike Iranian nuclear sites, including in Fordow, sources familiar with the issue are quoted as saying by CBS, the BBC's news partner in the US. They say this was expected to be discussed in today's meeting in the Situation Room, adding that there is not a full agreement among Trump's closest advisers.

... I urge President Trump to stay the course, keep putting America first, and to not join in any war between other countries. Every American should hope and pray for peace.

There are over 1 million foreign students in the United States. The largest group by far are Chinese students whose numbers have fluctuated between a third and a quarter of a million. These students are in America to gain training in this country, not only at top universities like Harvard, but at tech companies, before taking their knowledge and skills back to China.

The United States Department of Education has opened investigations into California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt, for ignoring anti-Semitic behavior on its campus, according to Campus Reform. The lawsuit was brought against the university after complaints were lodged by two non-profit organizations, Jewish on Campus and The Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law. The initial complaint, made on March 6th, said that six Jewish students were subject to physical and verbal abuse, and they were barred and forced out of specific areas on campus. It further stated that pro-Palestinian activists put fake blood on Jewish students, yelled anti-Jewish...

Elon Musk right now on X: Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!

The United States on Wednesday vetoed a U.N. Security Council resolution demanding an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza because it was not linked to the release of hostages. All 14 other members of the council voted in favor of the resolution, which described the humanitarian situation in Gaza as “catastrophic” and called on Israel to lift all restrictions on the delivery of aid to the 2.1 million Palestinians in the territory. The resolution before the U.N.'s most powerful body also did not fulfill two other U.S. demands: It did not condemn Hamas’ deadly attack in Israel on Oct. 7,...

Tucker Carlson said he's not sure he can support the Republican party after a Florida congressman called for Gaza to be nuked. Congressman Randy Fine, who was recently elected to replace Mike Waltz in Florida as the preferred candidate of President Trump, made the jaw dropping comments in a Fox News interview last month. He said: 'In World War 2 we did not negotiate a surrender with the Nazis, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Japanese. 'We nuked the Japanese twice in order to get unconditional surrender. That needs to be the same here in Gaza. 'There is...

President Donald Trump has appointed Paul Ingrassia, a right-wing attorney and onetime podcaster who has defended avowed white supremacist Nick Fuentes and worked with antisemitic influencer Andrew Tate, to a new senior role as head of the United States Office of Special Counsel. It is the second promotion this week for a federal staffer with a record involving antisemitism. Kingsley Wilson, a Department of Defense official who has shared neo-Nazi conspiracy theories about Jewish lynching victim Leo Frank, recently ascended to Pentagon press secretary. “Paul is a highly respected attorney, writer, and Constitutional Scholar, who has done a tremendous job...

Laura Loomer @LauraLoomer NEW THREAD: 🚨 STATE DEPARTMENT VETTING CRISIS CONTINUES 🚨 OBAMA HOLDOVERS WHO PARTICIPATED IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE JCPOA (otherwise known as the Iran Nuclear Deal) STILL EMPLOYED AT US STATE DEPARTMENT WHERE THEY ARE ADVISING ON IRAN NEGOTIATIONS IN THE NEW TRUMP ADMINISTRATION 🇺🇸 🇮🇷 As President Donald Trump prepares to steer America’s foreign policy into a bold new era and engages in direct negotiations with Iran, a troubling relic of the Obama administration still lingers inside the US State Department: Nathanael “Nate” Swanson. Swanson is another Obama era unelected bureaucrat who has been entrenched at...

Universities and colleges across the country can thank Harvard for this latest development. If federal courts won't allow the Department of Homeland Security to deal directly with Harvard on compliance for the Student Education Visa Program (SEVP), the administration can simply make it more difficult for everyone instead. That seems to be the case today, although this may have accelerated a project that would have started soon anyway. After a federal court issued a stay that allows Harvard to continue enrolling foreign students, the Trump administration paused the entire program. Embassies and consulates have been ordered to stop conducting necessary...

Protesters have chanted, “Globalize the intifada!” and “There is only one solution, intifada revolution!” across U.S. college campuses and city streets since Israel began defending itself after the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks. Radical activists have used these dark slogans not just as a chant but as a call to action. It is time for Americans to face the true threat posed by radicalized progressive Democrats.The deaths of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, two Israeli Embassy staffers, outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday evening underscore this new reality. The shooter, a pro-Palestinian activist tied to the communist...

Dan –– blink twice if they've threatened you or your family.

Top brass at the FBI has emphatically declared that notorious sex predator Jeffrey Epstein’s death in 2019 was a suicide and that there is no evidence to suggest otherwise. FBI deputy director Dan Bongino and director Kash Patel have both concluded Epstein took his own life in the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City. “I have reviewed the case. Jeffrey Epstein killed himself. There’s no evidence in the case file indicating otherwise,” Bongino, a former conservative talk radio host, wrote on X.

“That’s Not What We Voted For!": Grading Pam Bondi's and Kash Patel's Performance So Far

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) drops a bombshell about the Epstein files during an interview with far-left blowhard Cenk Uygur on his show The Young Turks. Greene raised serious questions about the fate of the elusive Jeffrey Epstein files and the decades-long cover-up protecting the powerful elite. Greene didn’t mince words when asked about the Epstein case — asserting that the vast majority of the evidence has likely been destroyed and suggesting that foreign governments like Israel and the United Kingdom may be sitting on crucial information. Cenk Uygur: Okay, so, one more thing here, along these lines — Epstein...

On Wednesday, the same day Palestinian Columbia University student Mohsen Mahdawi was released on bail pending a Habeas hearing after a judge determined that he did not pose a risk to the public, Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky blasted the Congress for pushing new speech restrictions, particularly antisemitism measures that would restrict criticism of Israel on school campuses. “We’re either a free society governed by the Constitution, or we’re not. We need to challenge hate with reason, not censorship.” Paul was specifically addressing the Antisemitism Awareness Act which would codify a Trump-era executive order declaring that antisemitism is a...

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday explained the delay in releasing files on billionaire and child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. President Donald Trump on the campaign trail repeatedly promised to release the Epstein Files, including the rumored list of clients with whom the billionaire trafficked children. So far, there has been no substantive release of information about the child abuser’s crimes. While speaking with reporters, Bondi was asked whether the files would ever get released. “It’s just the volume,” Bondi answered. “That’s what they’re going through right now.” Bondi further stated that the FBI is combing through “tens of thousands...
