Front Page Magazine: If You Can't Show Up to Vote, Your Vote Shouldn't Count
The House is currently distracted by the issue of proxy voting, with Rep. Anna Paulina Luna advocating for its return, which undermines the Republican agenda. Speaker Johnson's 'Vote Pairing' approach is criticized for allowing absenteeism, suggesting that if members can't attend, their votes shouldn't count.
The push for exemptions, such as for new mothers, risks creating a slippery slope toward a remote Congress. The article questions the need for a younger Congress and highlights that younger members have not necessarily proven themselves effective. Ultimately, it argues that government officials should prioritize their responsibilities to the public.
Le Monde: Le Pen's conviction: Man detained after death threat against embezzlement trial judge
A 76-year-old man was detained in France for making death threats against a judge following the conviction of far-right leader Marine Le Pen, who received a five-year ban from running for office due to embezzlement charges. The ruling has sparked outrage among her supporters and threats against the judiciary.
Le Pen's conviction has led to calls from her party for a defense of the judiciary, while President Macron emphasized the independence of judges. The case is set for appeal, which could potentially allow Le Pen to participate in the 2027 presidential elections if her conviction is overturned.

Times Of Israel: ‘Owe our lives to you’: Former Gaza captives implore Trump to help free the rest
President Trump honored freed hostages Iair Horn, Keith Siegel, and Aviva Siegel at a Washington event, where they expressed gratitude for his efforts in securing their release from Hamas captivity. Siegel emphasized the importance of continuing to prioritize the remaining hostages still held in Gaza.
The hostages were taken during Hamas's October 2023 invasion, which resulted in the abduction of 251 individuals. Despite a ceasefire that allowed for the release of some hostages, 59 remain captive, with only 24 believed to be alive. A recent report highlighted the dire health conditions of those still in captivity.
Front Page Magazine: US Should Not Fund UN 'Food Programs' in Islamic Terror States
The UN's World Food Program (WFP), led by Cindy McCain, faces criticism for alleged dishonesty and lack of oversight, particularly regarding claims of famine in Gaza and other regions. Despite initial funding cuts by USAID, contracts for humanitarian aid were restored after warnings about severe hunger crises.
Critics argue that WFP operates in enemy states and has a history of exaggerating famine situations to secure funding. The restoration of aid to countries like Lebanon and Syria raises concerns about the effectiveness of such support, as it may not genuinely help those in need.
