Unbiased headline news in 60-seconds. The Israel-Hamas war’s death toll continued to rise, even days after the unexpected assault on Israel by the Hamas militant group originating from Gaza. President Biden strongly condemned the assault, which resulted in over 1,000 casualties, including 14 Americans, describing it as “a heinous act.” He noted that American citizens were among those currently held captive by Hamas, a group that maintains control over the Gaza Strip and has long been designated a terrorist organization by the United States. Benjamin Wright reporting. — Relatives of U.S. citizens who were feared to be taken hostage by Hamas appealed to the Biden administration on Tuesday, seeking assistance in securing the release of their loved ones. They expressed concern that they had not received any “formal communication” from the White House. During a news conference, Rachel Goldberg, the mother of 23-year-old Hersh Goldberg-Polin, shared that the last message she received from her son conveyed his love and regret. Goldberg-Polin had been among the thousands of attendees at a music festival when Hamas militants disrupted the event on Saturday. Harry Michaels reporting. — New York Representative George Santos, who has been facing numerous challenges, found himself indicted on fresh federal charges on Tuesday. This superseding indictment included charges of conspiracy, wire fraud, aggravated identity theft, and credit card fraud. Prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York newly alleged that Santos and former campaign treasurer Nancy Marks had submitted false financial reports to the Federal Election Commission. These reports had inflated the campaign’s fundraising figures, all in an attempt to qualify for specific perks, benefits, and support from Republican Party leaders. Kyle Norris reporting. — Western Afghanistan was hit by a significant earthquake with a magnitude of 6.3, just a few days after two similar-magnitude quakes claimed the lives of over 1,200 people. The earthquake originated 17.39 miles to the northwest of Herāt, Afghanistan, as reported by the United States Geological Survey, an agency responsible for monitoring earthquakes worldwide. Shortly after the initial quake, a 5.0 magnitude tremor occurred in the same general area. Lawrence Keller reporting.

We always like to get constructive feedback from our listeners. The keyword is “constructive”. But when a bunch of rabid MAGA callers call in yelling, shouting and throwing insults (you know, the usual); the purpose of the feedback line is mute. We had to filter out most of them because they’re nothing but a bunch of rambling rants. So we put together a short segment with some of the mild calls.

For the life of me, I could not figure out why everyday Americans are caught up in the MAGA Trump fever. With all the facts out there, no matter what Trump does, they admire and basically worship him. It doesn’t matter the corruptions, lies and greed they want him to be the grand leader. Finally, Hillary Clinton has the full context of what’s going on. She fully explains why this group of people will follow him to the ends of the earth. It’s eye opening for both republicans and democrats.

More than 1,500 individuals have lost their lives since the unexpected assault by the Hamas militant group on Israel from Gaza early Saturday, prompting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to proclaim the onset of a war. An Israeli embassy spokesperson revealed that the death toll among Israelis had surged to a minimum of 900, with the majority of them being civilians. Additionally, another 2,150 people have been reported as wounded. Among the casualties, over 250 were attendees of the Supernova music festival near the Gaza border, where militants opened fire on the crowd. Harry Michaels reporting. — The Biden administration has firmly rejected assertions linking last month’s prisoner exchange with Iran to the terrorist attack on Israel, which occurred after Hamas initiated its surprise assault. Following the assault by Hamas militants on Israel, Republicans swiftly attempted to draw connections, unsupported by evidence, between the attack and the unfreezing of $6 billion in funds as part of the U.S.-Iran prisoner swap in September. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller emphasized, “Let’s be unequivocal: the agreement to repatriate U.S. citizens from Iran is entirely unrelated to the tragic assault on Israel. Not a single dollar has been allocated.” Kyle Norris reporting. — Major airlines have suspended flight operations to and from Israel in the wake of the nation’s declaration of war following the extensive Hamas attack. Israel has targeted over 1,000 sites in Gaza, while Palestinian militants persist in launching rocket barrages, triggering air raid sirens in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Online footage has emerged depicting a plume of smoke near a terminal at Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion International Airport. Benjamin Wright reporting. — The White House disclosed that President Joe Biden has been interviewed by the independent prosecutor’s team investigating his handling of classified documents during his time out of office. White House spokesman Ian Sams conveyed that the voluntary interview spanned two days, Sunday and Monday, concluding on Monday itself, and took place at the White House. Anna Shelling reporting.

Little donations are a goldmine for politicians. They add up. The best way to get these donations is to point the finger at the other side, outrage your base and collect the money. This is why Marjorie and AOC are the biggest fundraisers. Most of the people that donate via “outrage clicks” are the radical left and the radical right. So they have become the voice for this country because politicians are focused on these radicals so they give more money. Time to wake up!

Gaetz and McCarthy never got along. That’s no secret. There were plenty of incidents that proved it. In an ABC News interview, Gaetz continually made jabs at McCarthy confirming that this was personal. Let’s discuss.
