Israeli forces fired bullets and tear gas at Palestinian families gathered near Ofer Prison, awaiting the release of prisoners under a ceasefire deal with Hamas. The attack injured seven people and came amid heightened security measures to suppress public gatherings. Families were warned against celebrating or displaying Palestinian flags, with threats of canceling releases. This incident follows Israeli PM Netanyahu's statement reserving the "right" to resume the war on Gaza, which has claimed nearly 47,000 Palestinian lives.

Donald Trump’s claimed role in brokering a Gaza ceasefire has intensified Arab American frustration with President Biden. Many feel Biden failed to secure peace despite months of opportunity, while Trump’s intervention seemingly pushed Israel to agree. The ceasefire, set to begin Sunday, follows pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu by Trump’s envoy. Arab American voters, particularly in Michigan, express anger over Biden’s handling of the war, branding him “Genocide Joe” and questioning Democratic support for Palestinian rights. Skepticism remains over the ceasefire’s durability.

The idea has met widespread opposition, with many questioning its feasibility and the long-term implications of such a move.

Republicans argue it ensures fairness, while Democrats condemn it as discriminatory against trans individuals, especially youth.

The Pacific Palisades wildfire continues to wreak havoc in Los Angeles County, with thousands of homes destroyed and residents forced to evacuate. Amid the disaster, a political blame game has erupted between President-elect Donald Trump and California Governor Gavin Newsom. Trump criticized Newsom for his handling of the crisis, accusing the Democratic governor of being responsible for the wildfires and failing to address water management issues that could have helped contain the flames. In response, Newsom urged an investigation into the water pressure problems impacting fire hydrants in the affected areas.

In a chilling propaganda display, Hamas handed released hostages bizarre “gift bags” featuring photos of their captivity, a commemorative Gaza photo, and gold-gilded “certificates of release.” The released hostages, Romi Gonen, Emily Damari, and Doron Steinbrecher, described the gesture as a “cynical game” aimed at psychological manipulation. Video footage shared by Hamas shows the hostages being escorted through Gaza City by a motorcade of armed, masked terrorists, with crowds mobbing the vehicles. Eventually handed over to the Red Cross, the hostages were transported to safety, marking the first phase of a cease-fire deal.

The Gaza ceasefire agreement has ignited a political crisis within Israel, as far-right ministers, led by Bezalel Smotrich, threaten to overthrow Prime Minister Netanyahu's government. Smotrich criticized the ceasefire as a "surrender to Hamas" and demanded that Israel continue its military operations in Gaza to defeat Hamas. He warned of the government's collapse unless it resumes military actions and establishes control over Gaza. Smotrich's party, along with National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir's, has withdrawn from the coalition, heightening tensions. Despite the withdrawals, Netanyahu's government retains a narrow majority in the Knesset. The ongoing conflict has caused significant casualties, and international bodies have issued warrants and rulings against Israeli leaders over actions in Gaza.

Bernie Sanders has sharply criticized Elon Musk for his defense of the H-1B visa program, which allows U.S. companies to hire foreign workers for skilled positions. Sanders argues that the program helps replace well-paying American jobs with cheaper labor from abroad, benefiting billionaires like Musk. The senator calls for an end to the program to ensure that U.S. workers are prioritized and that corporations no longer rely on cheaper foreign labor. This ongoing debate highlights the clash between immigration policy, corporate interests, and American workers' rights.
