Breitbart: Syria’s Jihadi President Touts ‘Historic’ National Dialogue Summit
Syria's interim president Ahmed al-Sharaa, a former al-Qaeda leader, called a national dialogue summit a historic opportunity for rebuilding post-civil war Syria. He emphasized unity among Syrians to heal from decades of dictatorship, while outlining plans for a transitional government set to take power on March 1.
However, significant groups like the Alawites, Kurds, and Druze were excluded from the summit, raising concerns about the inclusivity of the proposed government. Kurdish representatives condemned the event as meaningless, while the Druze community is considering closer ties with Israel for safety. Critics argue the summit was a façade to encourage lifting sanctions against the new regime.

Breitbart: Dem Rep. Pallone: 'Don't Think That You Necessarily Need to Cut Spending,' 'We'd Be Better Off' if Tax Cuts Expired
Rep. Frank Pallone (D-NJ) stated on CNBC that he doesn't see the need for spending cuts and believes it would be better if current tax cuts expired. He criticized the Republican tax plan, claiming it primarily benefits the wealthy and large corporations, leaving the middle class with little.
Co-host Becky Quick argued that the tax plan helps all Americans and emphasized the need for spending cuts. Pallone maintained that the average person does not benefit from the tax cuts and would prefer their expiration over Medicaid cuts that could harm healthcare.
