Fox News: Florida Republican urges defunding UN Human Rights Council until it condemns Hamas
Florida congresswoman Rep. Anna Paulina Luna is introducing the Stand With Israel Act, a bipartisan bill that would withhold U.S. funding to the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) until they pass a resolution condemning Hamas. Luna argues that the UNHRC should not receive taxpayer funding until it stops targeting Israel, referring to China's treatment of Muslims in concentration camps as an example of their hypocrisy. The bill has multiple co-sponsors and aims to prevent funds from going to the UNHRC until a clear resolution condemning Hamas is adopted .
Furthermore, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres is facing calls to resign after a speech that was seen as rationalizing Hamas' actions. Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations, Gilad Erdan, has criticized Guterres and called for his resignation. The UN has a history of accusations of antisemitism, with a resolution equating Zionism with racism in 1975. This reputation has damaged Israel's standing as the only democratic state in the Middle East (, ).
The Blaze: Bing’s AI channels ‘Dark Brandon’-style authoritarian democracy
A political cartoon depicting "democracy vs. authoritarianism" goes viral on social media, bearing resemblance to Joe Biden's speech. The current administration's push for control of digital technology raises concerns about citizen surveillance and suppression of political speech. Critics argue that the left is principled in imposing its power over dissenters, while hierarchy is a more justifiable order than hypocrisy. The framing of democracy versus authoritarianism distracts from the true nature of political life, resulting in regimes labeled "authoritarian" claiming to be voices of democracy and regimes labeled "democracy" engaging in repressive behavior. Bing's accidental political cartoon may reveal a harsh truth through clever exaggeration.

American Thinker: US government’s checks and balances are not working well
The checks and balances in the U.S. government are criticized for not working well. Increased polarization and partisanship lead to legislative gridlock. Presidents overstep their authority with executive orders. Congress fails to conduct thorough oversight. The judicial branch engages in judicial activism. Impeachment proceedings are politically motivated or ineffective. National security and surveillance powers expand without adequate checks. Special interest groups and lobbying influence the legislative branch. Unelected bureaucrats in the executive branch have too much influence. The lack of transparency and competence in the CDC and FDA led to the Covid disaster. Presidential appointments can shift policy and ideology. These challenges require addressing constitutional principles and the will of the people.

The plaintiffs, supported by a liberal watchdog group, filed the challenge based on Trump's alleged role in the January 6 insurrection. Witnesses, including police officers, testified to the violence they experienced that day. Trump's defense team claims that he called for peace and did not lead the rioters into the Capitol. The case could potentially go to the Supreme Court.
