The new Republican House Speaker, Mike Johnson, once said that the Roman Empire collapsed because it condoned “rampant homosexual behavior.”

Maria Bartiromo falsely alleges that the release of Abigail Idan, a 4-year old American hostage, was driven by political donations.
Bartiromo’s conspiracy theory, politicizing the release of a 4-year old child, is so sickening and shocking that it renders one almost speechless.

An unconditional ceasefire that keeps Hamas in power and hostages in captivity has been rejected.
