Nazi lobby adapts to power shift from Congress to White House

  Posted by: John Phoenix The White House (Matt Wade via Wikimedia Commons) As Congress becomes “increasingly irrelevant” in shaping foreign affairs, the Israel lobby is working to get President Trump in its court by Matthew Kassel, reposted from Jewish Insider, May 30, 2025 For decades, Jewish and pro-Israel groups invested significant resources in building bipartisan relationships with key members of Congress to steer legislation, while helping secure foreign aid and blocking unfavorable initiatives concerning the Middle East.

Trump Ramps Up WWIII, Tells Putin He’s ‘Playing With Fire’

Posted by: John Phoenix President promised during the campaign that he would resolve the Ukraine War in 24 hours, but admitted he was being 'sarcastic' U.S. President Donald Trump, who famously said resolving the Ukraine War would be a cinch, ramped up his rhetoric against Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday and said his counterpart is lucky he is in the White House because “lots of really bad things would have already happened to Russia, and I mean REALLY BAD.” NEW ISSUE OUT TODAY “He’s playing with fire!” Trump said. Trump hoodwinked voters that he would be able to resolve the conflict, despite never explaining how.

Jerry Falwell and the Chistian Culture Wars

In over 18 months, Israel has failed to defeat any of its enemies and escalation in Gaza could be the most dangerous decision he has taken yet. While the Israeli prime minister insists on continuing the war on Gaza, holding to his pledge to “crush and destroy” Hamas, he has failed to do so and according to his own nation’s in...
