US President Donald Trump's pick to be ambassador to the United Nations has been withdrawn, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman James Risch said on Thursday.
Republican Representative Elise Stefanik is a close Trump ally and was chosen by the president for the role less than a week after he was elected in November.
"It is essential that we maintain EVERY Republican Seat in Congress," Trump said in a social media post. "With a very tight Majority, I don't want to take a chance on anyone else running for Elise's seat."
Trump's Republicans currently hold a 218 to 213 majority in the House of Representatives, where there are four vacancies.
Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman James Risch told reporters on Thursday: "I have been n...
Israel provided sensitive intelligence from a human source in Yemen on a key Houthi military operative targeted in an attack described by national security adviser Mike Waltz in an unclassified Signal chat with senior Trump administration officials, two U.S. officials said.
Shortly after the U.S. strikes began, Waltz texted that a key target of the attacks, a Houthi missile expert, had been seen entering his girlfriend’s building, which he said had been destroyed.
Israeli officials have complained privately to U.S. officials that Waltz’s text has become public, one U.S. official said.
Israel’s role in supplying information that helped track the militant highlights the sensitivity of some disclosures in the texts and raises questions about the Trump administ...

Jerusalem, Israel - March 27, 2025 - Some self-hating Jews in America are working overtime to try to prevent the deportation of those who hate them and wish them harm. Needless to say, these traitors should be shunned by the Jewish Community. Shunned, I say! Protests in Gaza? Speaking of shunning, there have reportedly been protests throughout the Gaza Strip against continued Hamas rule. The most prominent of the protests took place in the northern Gaza Strip. Ironically, exactly where Israel just recently informed the population that they would need to evacuate soon in preparation for a large-scale Israeli incursion. Rockets were also fired at Israel this week from northern Gaza as well. What is going on here? Every rabid animal kicks before it dies and it doesn’t get more rabid tha...
