Fox News: Top New Zealand diplomat fired for what he said about Trump
Phil Goff, New Zealand's High Commissioner to the UK, was fired after questioning President Trump's understanding of history during a Chatham House event. He compared Trump’s approach to Russia with Churchill's stance against Nazi Germany, prompting discomfort from Finnish officials.
New Zealand's Foreign Minister Winston Peters deemed Goff's comments "deeply disappointing" and stated they made his position untenable, emphasizing that diplomats must represent government views without personal opinions. Goff had a notable political career before his dismissal.
The Federalist: Politico Stealth Edits Error-Filled Hit Piece On GOP Spending Bill
The federal government has spent $30 million on subscriptions to Politico since 2015, raising concerns about the use of taxpayer money. A recent article by Politico misrepresented a GAO report on Medicaid savings, omitting key facts that contradicted its claims.
Despite being alerted to these omissions, Politico allegedly rewrote the article without disclosing the changes, undermining journalistic integrity. Critics argue that this behavior reflects poorly on both Politico and the government, suggesting refunds for subscriptions may be warranted.

Fox News: After Trump threat, Hamas refuses to release more hostages without phase 2 ceasefire deal
Hamas has rejected President Trump's ultimatum regarding the release of Israeli hostages, stating that negotiations for a permanent ceasefire are necessary for any further releases. Trump warned Hamas on social media, demanding the immediate release of hostages and threatening severe consequences otherwise.
Currently, Hamas holds 24 living Israeli hostages and the remains of 34 others. The ongoing conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with Israel's military operations reportedly killing over 48,000 Palestinians.
The Federalist: How Trump's 'Reverse Nixon' Policy Can Avoid Costly Mistakes
Some experts suggest that President Trump's outreach to Russia and efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine war may be motivated by a desire to counter China's influence, akin to Nixon's strategy of engaging with China against the Soviet Union. However, Nixon's approach had unintended consequences, strengthening China instead of promoting political change.
The Trump administration's strategy, often termed a "reverse Nixon," aims to shift focus from Ukraine to confront China. This has raised concerns about potentially reinforcing Russia's position and complicating U.S. relations with allies. The current geopolitical landscape differs significantly from the 1970s, necessitating careful navigation to avoid repeating past mistakes.
Fox News: Trump sticking to Gaza relocation plan, as White House seems to dismiss Egyptian proposal
President Trump maintains his vision for Gaza's reconstruction, emphasizing that current proposals fail to address the territory's uninhabitable conditions. National Security Council spokesperson Brian Hughes stated that rebuilding Gaza must occur without Hamas, while discussions involving U.S., Egyptian, Qatari, and Hamas officials continue.
The Israeli government has expressed concerns over the Egyptian reconstruction plan, criticizing it for not acknowledging recent violence and Hamas's role. Despite this, Hamas supports the Egyptian initiative, which outlines a $53 billion plan for rebuilding Gaza by 2030, contingent on financial backing from Gulf states.
The Telegraph: Trump is behaving like a businessman, not a Commander-in-Chief
The suspension of U.S. intelligence support to Ukraine is viewed as a dangerous move by Trump, potentially allowing Putin to operate without oversight and prolonging the conflict. This decision raises concerns about the safety of civilians and military personnel in Ukraine.
Critics argue that Trump's business-oriented approach to military decisions is misguided and may lead to further loss of life. There is a call for European leaders to take a more active role in negotiations, as Trump's involvement could hinder efforts for a just peace.
