Fox News: Conservative coalition warns GOP leaders against ‘watering down’ border measures to clinch spending deal

The groups argue that anything less than the provisions of the Secure the Border Act would not effectively address the ongoing border crisis. Democrats, however, have opposed the bill in the Senate, and conservatives are prepared to fight against any watered-down alternatives.

The Telegraph: Hamas uses rape as a weapon of war – and the BBC has only just noticed
Western reactions to Hamas's attacks on Israel have been shocking to many, but not surprising to those familiar with the anti-Semitism in Islamic societies and their left-wing supporters. The BBC's biased reporting and refusal to label Hamas as terrorists is not unexpected. The silence surrounding Hamas's use of rape as a war tactic is a clear example of the double standards applied to Israel and the IDF. While Israel takes rape seriously and punishes offenders, Hamas condones and celebrates it. The BBC's failure to report on this issue aligns it with those who support Palestine, including those who have sent vile abuse to those defending Israel.

Fox News: Biden's billion-dollar plan to build 500,000 EV chargers has yet to yield a single charger
President Biden's trillion-dollar infrastructure package aimed to fund a nationwide electric vehicle (EV) charging network, but after two years, only $101.5 million has been distributed for seven state awards, with just two projects underway. The program is falling far short of its goal of building 500,000 chargers and awarding $5 billion in five years. Critics argue that Americans are not interested in EVs, despite subsidies and incentives. They suggest that the lack of EV demand, technological limitations, and the rural nature of many states contribute to the program's failure.
