The Ukrainian and Israeli wars are similar and yet also different conflicts—but in more ways than we can imagine. Ukraine was invaded by a huge Russian state, with a population three-and-a-half times greater, a gross national product 10 times larger, and an area 30 times its size. Hamas, by contrast, is a terrorist clique of […]
Rapper Kanye West says he’s concerned with the violent crime and deaths in his hometown of Chicago than anything going on globally. The controversial 46-year-old was at Los Angeles International Airport on Monday with his wife, Bianca Censori, when he was approached by journalists, the U.K. Daily Mail reported.

The U.S. House this week rejected a stand-alone bill that would have provided $17.6 billion in assistance to Israel but didn’t include any provision to pay it. The Tuesday vote required a two-thirds majority to pass because it had been put under “suspension” but Republican House leaders, which allows for a quicker vote — suspending […]
Last July, Axios ran a piece about President Joe Biden’s temper with his White House aides. Instead of framing this as “Old Man Yells at Cloud”-style fare, it was supposed to emphasize how the then-80-year-old president could outsmart his own aides. “Biden’s temper comes in the form of angry interrogations rather than erratic tantrums,” Axios’ […]
