Fox News: 'Hurting people to help themselves': Dem senator disses DOGE's CFPB cuts
'Hurting people to help themselves': Dem senator disses DOGE's CFPB cuts
Sen. Tim Kaine criticized Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency for targeting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) through significant workforce cuts. Kaine highlighted the CFPB's role in providing over $21 billion in consumer relief and expressed concern that these actions undermine protections for vulnerable populations.

Kaine accused Musk of self-serving motives, suggesting the cuts are detrimental to consumer advocacy and financial oversight. The CFPB has faced protests and legal challenges following the mass firings, which have raised alarms about the agency's ability to enforce consumer finance laws.


Human Events: ALEXANDER OAKES: Don’t be fooled by the Dems’ ‘moderation,’ but call their bluff
ALEXANDER OAKES: Don’t be fooled by the Dems’ ‘moderation,’ but call their bluff
President Trump's recent address to Congress highlighted divisions within the Democratic Party, particularly following the censure of Rep. Al Green for his disruptive behavior during the speech. Notably, ten Democrats broke ranks to support the censure, indicating a shift toward more moderate positions as the party seeks to appeal to swing voters ahead of future elections.

The article suggests that Republicans should capitalize on this shift by exposing what it describes as the extreme positions of the Democrats on issues like transgender participation in sports, crime policies, and abortion. By forcing Democrats to defend these stances, the GOP aims to maintain momentum from their 2024 gains into the upcoming midterms and beyond.

French parliament mulls bill to bring back village bars
French lawmakers are set to discuss a bill aimed at facilitating the opening of bars in rural areas lacking such establishments. Proponents argue this would revitalize social life and local economies, while critics express concerns over potential health risks associated with increased alcohol consumption.

The proposed legislation would allow new type-4 alcohol licenses in small villages, bypassing the current requirement to wait for existing licenses to become available. Supporters emphasize the need for social interaction, while detractors question the necessity of allowing spirits in these areas, citing addiction concerns.

Times Of Israel: Ahead of Doha talks, Witkoff says ‘deadlines’ key for deal on ceasefire’s next phase
Ahead of Doha talks, Witkoff says ‘deadlines’ key for deal on ceasefire’s next phase
US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff emphasized the need for deadlines in the ongoing negotiations for a hostage-ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas. He stated that Hamas must demilitarize and leave Gaza for peace talks to progress, while also acknowledging Qatar's mediation efforts.

Hamas has indicated flexibility in negotiations, focusing on ending the war and the release of hostages. The discussions aim to secure the return of all hostages and establish a permanent ceasefire. US envoy Adam Boehler noted that a deal could be reached soon, but tensions remain regarding the US's role in the negotiations.

U.S. Hostage 'Negotiator" Says Hamas Wants Peace, Offers '15-Year Truce', US Rebuilding of Gaza
The Trump administration's Gaza policy appears conflicted, with President Trump advocating a strong stance while his team, particularly Special Envoy Adam Boehler, seems to favor engagement with Hamas. Boehler's recent statements suggest a potential truce in exchange for disarmament and rebuilding efforts, raising concerns about legitimizing Hamas.

Critics argue that such a deal is fundamentally flawed, as it allows Hamas to rearm during a proposed truce period and undermines U.S. interests. The approach reflects a troubling tendency to negotiate with terrorists rather than supporting allies in defeating them.

Zelensky should stand down to save his country
The U.S. has paused military aid to Ukraine amid President Zelensky's failed diplomatic efforts, notably during his recent visit to Europe. This has raised concerns about Ukraine's immediate defense needs as Russia prepares for a significant offensive.

Zelensky's weakened position calls for a new leadership approach, potentially involving a coalition government to re-establish U.S. support and negotiate effectively. The focus should shift towards a mineral-security deal and a unified front to secure peace and reconstruction for Ukraine.

GEORGE HARIZANOV: Progressives in Europe need to wake up to the fact that ‘America First’ is here to stay
The U.S. is shifting its foreign policy under the Biden administration, focusing on "America First," prioritizing domestic issues over international aid. This includes cutting funding for foreign initiatives to address internal challenges like disaster recovery and border security.

While this approach may disappoint allies, it reflects a commitment to reducing U.S. debt and reallocating resources to American needs. The message is clear: America will no longer act as the world's policeman or fund initiatives that do not directly benefit its citizens.
