Quote:WASHINGTON — President Trump on Monday announced plans to build new battleships for the first time in more than 80 years — and is naming them after himself.
The new ships will represent an upgrade to the Navy’s Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyers — with the current models costing more than $2 billion apiece to build.
The shipbuilding will begin “immediately” and will take approximately two-and-a-half years to complete, the president said.
While the term “battleships” is commonly used to describe any kind of warship, the term technically refers to a heavily armored Navy ship armed with large guns and capable of serving as the command vessel in a naval attack campaign.
The US has not commissioned a battleship-class vessel since the USS Missouri in 1944. The previous US battleships were named after states.
“They will have 100 times the force, the power [of earlier warships], and there’s never been anything like these ships,” Trump said. “These have been under design consideration for a long time, and it started with me and my first term.”
The new class of battleships will be named the “Trump-class” and will be capable not only of attacking naval targets, but also will be armed with nuclear-capable Tomahawk missiles — adding to the nation’s nuclear triad.
“These cutting-edge vessels will be some of the most lethal Surface Warfare ships,” Trump said. “Each one of these will be the largest battleship in the history of our country, the largest battleship in the history of the world ever built.”
While the Navy traditionally names ships after the first built in a series, the initial battleship will take the name USS Defiant.
It was not immediately clear how many of the new ships will be built, what new capabilities they might have or whether legislation will be required to finance the initiative.
There are 74 Arleigh Burke-class destroyers in service — built beginning in the late 1980s, and they serve versatile functions including air defense, aircraft carrier escort and as a launch pad for Tomahawk cruise missiles.
Quote:The Trump administration is recalling more than two dozen ambassadors from posts around the world, The Post has learned.
The removal of 29 envoys from positions in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, and Central America follows an initial mass dismissal of appointees of former President Joe Biden in the early months of President Trump’s second term.
“This is a standard process in any administration,” a senior State Department official told The Post Monday. “An ambassador is a personal representative of the president, and it is the president’s right to ensure that he has individuals in these countries who advance the America First agenda.”
The latest recalls would leave the US without envoys in key global hotspots — including the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Nigeria, and Somalia in Africa as well as Armenia, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Slovakia in Europe.
The diplomatic reshuffle was first reported by Politico Friday. Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin posted a list of 48 countries where the chief of mission was ostensibly on the chopping block Monday morning, only to delete his post “because I was told by State Department officials that it was not accurate.”
The Post obtained an updated list of recalls from a source familiar with the situation at midday Monday.
John Dinkelman, president of the American Foreign Service Association, complained to Politico Friday that the recalls “undermine the confidence in the professional Foreign Service’s ability to effectively carry out the policies of the elected leadership of our nation.”
Meanwhile, the Trump administration has yet to nominate permanent ambassadors to key allies and partners, including Australia, Germany, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, and Ukraine.
“We have about 80 vacant ambassadorships,” Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, told Politico. “Yet, President Trump is giving away US leadership to China and Russia by removing qualified career ambassadors who serve faithfully no matter who’s in power.”
The Associated Press reported late Sunday that chiefs of mission were told last week that their terms would be up in January.
Those affected by the shake-up are not losing their foreign service jobs but will be offered other assignments upon their return to DC, two department officials told the wire service.
Africa is the continent most affected by the removals, with ambassadors from 14 countries being removed; followed by Asia, with ambassadorial changes coming to six countries.
Quote:The DOJ on Monday released shocking footage that appeared to be a recreation of Jeffrey Epstein’s suicide in his Manhattan jail cell — and it briefly set the Internet on fire until it was revealed to be fake.
The video was posted without explanation to the Justice Department’s website as part of its Epstein file dump — with the footage just the latest item among a trove of documents and images to be revealed after the complete horde was ordered released in November.
The grainy, 12-second, computer-generated clip showed a white-haired man in an orange jumpsuit struggling and jerking his head about while kneeling at the base of a jail-cell bunk bed.
The time stamp on the video was 4:29 a.m. Aug. 10, 2019 — two hours before the pedophile’s body was found in his cell that day at the Metropolitan Correctional Facility.
The scene in the video seemed to match Epstein’s cell, where officials determined he hung himself while awaiting trial for a litany of sex-trafficking charges.
But a closer examination of the clip showed things were not quite right – with a pile of orange prison clothes strewn about the ground looking like puddles without any texture, and the door to the jail cell not matching the one in Epstein’s behind-bars compartment.
It soon was revealed in another dumped document that the clip was in fact a fake video that circulated on 4chan and was flagged by investigators by a Florida conspiracy theorist.
A Trump administration official later confirmed to The Post that the video was bogus and has been on YouTube for years. It was eventually taken down from the DOJ’s site Monday.
But its appearance had already caused a flurry of interest online, with many viewers thinking footage of Epstein’s death had finally been revealed.
That would have flown in the face of investigators’ long-standing narrative that the cameras watching Epstein’s cell malfunctioned on the night of his death and that no footage existed.
The lack of video has been one of the primary sources of conspiracy theories around Epstein’s death, with some people using it to fuel stories that the disgraced onetime powerful financier was murdered by shadowy forces.
Those theories were fanned during the first dump of Epstein files earlier this year, when a clip from outside Epstein’s cell block on the night he died was finally released – but a minute was missing just before midnight.
The DOJ insisted nothing was afoul and that the so-called “missing minute” was merely the result of the jail’s camera system recycling. A version was finally released to show that nothing nefarious happened during those 60 seconds.
Epstein had been on suicide watch before he died but was taken off and was supposed to have a cellmate living with him.
His cellmate was transferred off just a day before Epstein’s death.
The two guards who were supposed to be watching him at the time of his death also were sleeping on the job, and later admitted to falsifying reports to hide their blunder.
Quote:President Trump revealed that he does not like the Justice Department’s release of embarrassing photos of a half-naked Bill Clinton swimming with late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein’s madam, Ghislaine Maxwell.
“No, I don’t like the pictures of Bill Clinton being shown,” he told reporters Monday. “I don’t like the pictures of other people being shown. I think it’s a terrible thing.”
“But you probably have pictures being exposed of other people that innocently met Jeffrey Epstein years ago.”
The DOJ has been forced to release the Epstein files due to a law Trump signed last month amid mounting political pressure. The Epstein Files Transparency Act had cleared the House and Senate nearly unanimously, with only one vote against it.
The law gave the DOJ a deadline of Dec. 19 — last Friday — to release all the files with redactions to protect the notorious pedophile’s victims.
While the Trump administration released thousands of pages of files, many more remain sealed, and top officials have said they will be released on a rolling basis.
One of the headline-making disclosures was the photo of Clinton in a jacuzzi with Maxwell. Another picture showed him next to Epstein and Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger.
Notably, the disclosures had few new images of Trump. There was one photo of him in a batch on Friday that the DOJ scrubbed from its website due to concerns from several of Epstein’s victims, according to US Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
Clinton’s team fired back at the Trump administration, highlighting how there’s a deluge of documents still outstanding.
Quote:As if things couldn’t get worse for Ghislaine Maxwell.
The madam who trafficked young girls for Jeffrey Epstein was proudly snapped flashing her crotch, baring her breasts and shoving her face in another man’s lap during the heyday of her and the disgraced financier’s disturbing sex trade.
Maxwell was featured in thousands of photographs released Friday as part of a massive Department of Justice document dump.
In one shot, the now convicted felon is seen suggestively sitting in the driver’s seat of a luxury sports car, wearing nothing but a smirk and a white robe — and has her legs raised just enough to show off her crotch to the cameraman.
Several other images apparently taken on the same night show Maxwell, who is currently serving 20 years for the sick scheme, cuddling up with celebrity magician David Copperfield.
The pair are seen hugging one another and laughing, with one shot showing Copperfield standing behind Maxwell and comfortably wrapping his arms around her.
Copperfield could not immediately be reached for comment.
In one of the more explicit photos, Maxwell is seen leering down for the camera and showing off her breasts — while another, unidentified person from outside the camera’s shot shoves their foot between her cleavage.
In another, Maxwell has her head shoved into the lap of a mystery man aboard what appears to be the Lolita Express — as Epstein laughs joyfully beside her.
Lawyers for Maxwell did not respond to The Post’s request for comment regarding the images.
There are plenty of other pictures of Maxwell with Epstein galavanting around the world, presumably enjoying the splendor that their sick sex trade wrought them.
She is seen celebrating birthdays, fooling around with Russian soldiers and enjoying the Ascot’s Royal Box in June 2000 with disgraced Prince Andrew.
The former Royal Highness is also featured heavily throughout the trove of images, including in one where he is seen sprawling out across the laps of numerous young women — as Maxwell smirks in the background.
Quote:A photo of the creepy lookalike puppet that then-Prince Andrew is accused of using to grope sex accuser Virginia Giuffre has been unveiled in the newly released Jeffrey Epstein files.
The doll — fashioned in the now-disgraced royal’s likeness from satirical British TV show “Spitting Image” — was spotted in the background of a snap of his sex-trafficking pal Ghislaine Maxwell inside Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse.
The existence of the puppet first emerged nearly a decade ago when Giuffre, Epstein’s most prominent victim, alleged in court papers that the then-prince had used it to grab her breasts when she was just 17.
The claim surfaced again in her posthumous memoir, “Nobody’s Girl,” which was published in October — months after Giuffre died by suicide.
“When Andrew cupped my breast with a doll made in his image, I only giggled away,” she wrote, adding that she had to pretend she was entertained by the “lewd gestures.”
Giuffre had alleged for years that she was trafficked and forced to have sex with Andrew three times as a teen at Maxwell’s London home, Epstein’s New York townhouse, and his private Caribbean island, Little St. James.
The accusations — and his disastrous attempts to address them — led to him losing all his royal duties and titles. He now goes by the commoner name of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
Andrew has long vehemently denied Giuffre’s claims, but reached a settlement thought to have been worth $12 million to drop a civil lawsuit before her death.
Quote:A group of 98 Minnesota mayors raised concerns with state leaders in a letter about their state's fiscal policies, saying they have impacted their cities and residents, noting a disappearing $18 billion surplus and a projected $2.9 billion to $3 billion deficit for the 2028-29 biennium.
In a letter to state lawmakers and Gov. Tim Walz, the 98 mayors expressed concern and frustration, said the state was slipping in national economic rankings.
"Fraud, unchecked spending, and inconsistent fiscal management in St. Paul have trickled down to our cities—reducing our capacity to plan responsibly, maintain infrastructure, hire and retain employees, and sustain core services without overburdening local taxpayers," the letter states.
Cities across the state now face workforce shortages, slowed business investment, rising operational and construction costs, and families choosing to leave Minnesota altogether, the letter states.
In addition, the mayors noted potential property tax increases as a result of unfunded state mandates and costs that force cities to shift the burden to residents and businesses.
"There is a growing disconnect between state-level fiscal decisions and the strain they place on the cities we lead, the letter said. "When the state expands programs or shifts responsibilities without stable funding, it is our residents—families, seniors, businesses, and workers—who ultimately bear the cost."
Unfunded mandates include requests for schools, health and human services, and public safety.
Minnesota Republican lawmakers put the blame on Walz and Democrats.
"Governor Walz and Democrats passed unaffordable spending and tax increases along with unfunded mandates on the promise it would make life more affordable," state Republican Sen. Andrew Lang, who serves as the Lead on the Senate State and Local Government Committee, said in a statement. "In reality they just passed down the costs to local governments, schools, and small businesses, who in turn pass down costs to local taxpayers and consumers.
"Minnesota Counties sounded the alarm early last session about the proposals to shift costs onto their budgets, so I’m not surprised that nearly 100 mayors across the state are raising their own concerns. This letter is a warning that we must reduce state spending, stop the massive fraud plaguing our state, and remove unnecessary mandates to keep life affordable for everyone."
Fox News Digital has reached out to Walz's office.
The mayors noted that a state statute requires a balanced budget but that relying on one-time surplus dollars has created structural strain.
Quote:Lawmakers left town.
Last Thursday was the final day Congress met until early January. And despite health care dominating the conversation on Capitol Hill since late summer and through the autumn, Congress failed to execute a legislative fix for soaring health care premiums set to spike in January.
It was a Congressional jailbreak around 3 pm et Thursday as the House called its last vote and lawmakers sprinted for the exits, piling into cars on the Capitol plaza.
"Don't send us home without a vote," implored House Minority Whip Katherine Clark, D-Mass., on the House steps earlier in the day.
"Our message to (House Speaker) Mike Johnson, R-La., is clear," said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y. "You can run. But you cannot hide."
Lawmakers packed up for December, practically channeling partisans of the (once) hapless Chicago Cubs, declaring "Wait til next year."
"I'm optimistic that we still have a chance to do better in 2026," forecast Sen. Jon Husted, R-Ohio.
"I think before the end of January, we really do want to do something," said Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D.
There’s a reason why 2026 is fundamentally different from 2025.
"It's an election year," observed Sen. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo. "I think that Members of Congress are going to start hearing from their constituents."
Freshman Rep. Ryan Mackenzie, R-Pa., beat former Rep. Susan Wild, D-Pa., by one point in 2024, flipping the district from blue to red. Last week, Mackenzie became one of four House Republicans who rebelled against top Republican leaders – and aligning with Democrats – to renew Obamacare subsidies.
The "Fed Up 4" signed what’s called a "discharge petition." This is a maneuver to go around the Speaker and put a bill on the floor – if the Speaker won’t. Democrats pushed a discharge petition to re-up the expiring subsidies for three years. But they needed four Republicans to join them in their parliamentary guerilla tactic to take this out of the hands of the Speaker.
"There is no silver bullet. If there was, either party would have done it," said Mackenze.
When asked about the politics of this in his battleground district, Mackenzie replied that "we have a long way to go before the midterms."
Discharge petitions don’t ripen for a vote immediately. The House must wait seven legislative days before consideration. The House is out until January 6, 2027. After two days to trigger the discharge petition, the House may consider this maneuver around January 8 or 9.
But even one top House Republican believes this coalition of Democrats and few Republicans will succeed in January.
"My gut tells me that the COVID era subsidies, because we had the four members of the House sign onto that discharge petition, that it probably will pass," predicted House Republican Conference Chairwoman Lisa McClain (R-MI) on Fox Business.
But the Senate blocked a similar plan earlier this month. That’s why Democrats are skeptical that Congress can fix the problem once premiums explode in the new year.
"Huge damage has already been done. And nothing we do after January 1st can undo so much of that damage," said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
Some Republicans advocate a complete legislative overhaul of health care next year.
"What is different, though, about 2026 on health care compared to 2025 about health care? Why does this suddenly change?" yours truly asked Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C.
Quote:At least 20% of Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s transition committee members have ties to radical anti-Zionist groups that “openly promote terror and harass Jewish people,” the Anti-Defamation League found in a stinging report Monday.
The ADL pinpointed several activists who have downplayed the horrors of Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel or were involved in the anti-Israel encampments that sprung up on New York City college campuses last spring.
Roughly 80 of the 400 people named to staff Mamdani’s 17 transition committees “have a documented history of making or sharing anti-Zionist or anti-Israel statements,” the report found.
A handful were also found to have ties to the Nation of Islam or its antisemitic leader Louis Farrakhan, including Jacques Léandre, a member of the transition’s Committee on Legal Affairs, the ADL said.
The revealing report came less than a week after Mamdani’s director of appointments, Catherine Almonte Da Costa, was forced to resign when decade-old antisemitic and anti-police remarks she made on social media resurfaced — including rants about “money hungry Jews” and defunding NYPD “piggies.”
The ADL said that and the new findings in its report raise questions about the vetting process for Mamdani’s appointments, and whether the “concerning statements, associations and activities” had been identified by his transition team.
“Many of Mayor-Elect Mamdani’s Transition Committee appointments are inconsistent with his campaign commitments to prioritize the safety of New York’s Jewish community,” the ADL wrote in the report.
“The composition of these Transition Committees will directly influence the administration’s policies and approach to Jewish community concerns, and the current appointments raise serious questions as to whether those concerns will not be adequately represented or addressed.”
Mamdani, who takes office Jan. 1, insisted Monday that he’s “always spoken out against antisemitism and hatred in any form.”
The democratic socialist has faced ongoing criticism over his staunch criticism of Israel – but has worked to earn support from more of New York’s Jewish community since getting elected, including appearing in a recent Hanukkah video with actor Mandy Patinkin.
The ADL found about 80 transition members who have been involved with virulent anti-Zionist groups that “openly promote terror and harass Jewish people,” like Students for Justice in Palestine, Jewish Voice for Peace and Within Our Lifetimes — all of which have helped spur fiery anti-Israel protests across the Big Apple.
Quote:Ebenezer Scrooge has nothing on Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is thwarting cancer treatment for kids in a possibly futile attempt to get Congress to pass his priorities.
Last week, the Vermont socialist was the sole vote opposed to fast-tracking legislation that will make it easier for kids with cancer to access treatments and clinical trials and incentivize companies to develop pediatric therapies.
His complaint: the Mikaela Naylon Give Kids a Chance Act, named for a teen cancer patient who died while advocating for its passage, is a pared-down version of a previous package that included other health-care measures as well, including funding for community health centers.
Without those add-ons, he’s withholding support of a bill that was teed up to pass easily — and that even he otherwise supported.
Yet without his vote, it didn’t win unanimous backing, so it’ll now have to make its way through a much more arduous procedural process when Congress reconvenes next year.
That is, Sanders blocked an urgently needed bill in a perhaps futile attempt to get his pet projects passed.
Pray it doesn’t cost the lives of any kids who could’ve benefited. But make no mistake: This is super-villain behavior, as more rational lawmakers pointed out.
Right-wing Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.), who also supports funding community health centers, fumed: “To say that you’re not going to give a chance for children to have a cure for cancer if you don’t get what you want” is “selfish” and “tragic.”
Amen to that.
Too many hard-lefties think that way: Zero compromise, zero realism; just legalistic, ideology-driven insistence that things get done their way — or else. (Exhibit A: the recent government shutdown.)
Sanders has been similarly loony about data centers, claiming they’ll cost jobs. It’s the kind of logic that would have kept the world driving horse-pulled buggies.
Quote:Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials apprehended over 1,030 illegal aliens using its authority under the Laken Riley Act during its two-week Operation Angel’s Honor, The Post has learned.
The sweeping operation, which wrapped up Monday, was conducted in memory of Laken Riley, a nursing student who was brutally bludgeoned to death last year by an illegal immigrant while out for a jog.
“These criminals will face justice and be removed from our country,” Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said in a statement.
“We can never bring Laken back, but we can do everything in our power to bring these heinous criminals to justice. I am so proud of what our brave men and women of ICE have done to remove these criminals from America’s streets.”
The Laken Riley Act, which was named after Riley, sought to prevent repeats from happening by mandating that illegal immigrants who get caught committing crimes such as theft, assaulting a law enforcement officer, and more are arrested.
Riley’s murderer, José Antonio Ibarra, an illegal immigrant from Venezuela who was convicted last year and sentenced to life in prison, had a rap sheet that included shoplifting, acting in a manner to injure a minor, and more.
The law is intended to prevent illegal immigrants such as Ibarra, who have a record, from roaming the streets. It was the first bill President Trump signed during his second term.
Some of the illegal immigrants nabbed by ICE under Operation Angel’s Honor had committed egregious crimes such as rape, assault with intent to cause injury to an officer, indecent liberties with a child, and more.
“This operation, while a massive success, also serves as a solemn reminder of the profound impact that immigrant violence and crime can have on victims and their loved ones,” ICE Director Todd Lyons said.
“ICE’s mission is to ensure that no more Americans will fall victim to illegal alien crime.”
Quote:"The View" had a total of 341 guests in 2025, but only two of them were conservative, while 128 were liberal, according to a new study conducted by the Media Research Center.
"The View" aired its final new episode of the year on Friday, so the MRC analyzed how the ABC News program presented political discussions to its audience. The conservative media watchdog found that the daytime gabfest chatted with 128 liberal guests, including 25 Democratic politicians, but only spoke to a pair of conservatives the entire year.
"Their noticeable lack of right-leaning guests is just like their search for someone to fill the ‘conservative seat’ in the panel. They don’t want to have anyone on the show who’s going to lead to embarrassing moments of their leftist cast members being held to account for the wild and controversial things they say or call them out on their hypocrisies," MRC associate editor Nicholas Fondacaro told Fox News Digital.
Sen. Tammy Duckworth, Sen. John Fetterman, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Gov. JB Pritzker, Sen. Elissa Slotkin, Sen. Chuck Schumer, Sen. Cory Booker, Sen. Raphael Warnock, Gov. Wes Moore, former President Joe Biden and former First Lady Jill Biden, former Mayor Rahm Emanuel, former Rep. Anthony Weiner, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, Sen. Joe Manchin, former Vice President Kamala Harris, then-mayoral candidate Zohan Mamdani, then-mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo and Sen. Bernie Sanders were all guests on "The View" in 2025.
Obama staffers turned "Pod Save America" hosts Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett and Tommy Vietor were also guests on the show, and Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre appeared twice. "The View" also welcomed Sarah Kate Ellis of left-leaning GLAAD and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.
When it came to conservative guests, only actress Cheryl Hines — who is married to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., appeared on the program.
Fondacaro noted that Hines isn’t truly even a conservative.
"While having left-wing politics herself, she was forced to defend her husband’s — and, by extension, the Trump administration’s — policies. Thus, she was counted as right-leaning," he wrote when detailing his findings.
"They only had Greene on because she was being a headache for Congressional Republican leadership during the government shutdown. The cast also tried to recruit her to become a Democrat," Fondacaro wrote, adding that he doesn’t expect things to change anytime soon.
Quote:A Mexican Navy aircraft conducting a medical support mission crashed near the Galveston Causeway in Texas on Monday, prompting a multi-agency response from local law enforcement and Texas officials as investigators began working to determine the cause.
The Mexican Navy secretary said on X that one of the Navy’s planes was conducting a medical mission in coordination with the Michou and Mau Foundation when it experienced an incident during its approach near Galveston, Texas.
The Mexican Navy said in a statement that the aircraft involved was a King Air ANX 1209.
According to the Mexican Navy, eight people were on board the aircraft – four naval crew members and four civilians – when it crashed during its approach near Galveston.
Search and rescue protocols were immediately activated following the crash in coordination with the U.S. Coast Guard, which has rescued six people so far. Four were found alive, while two deaths have been confirmed. Efforts remain underway to rescue two additional people still believed to be inside the wreckage, the Mexican Navy said.
According to the Michou and Mau Foundation’s website, its vision is to "provide assistance so that children with severe burns have the best advanced treatment programs and multidisciplinary care."
The Mexican Navy added that search and rescue efforts were immediately activated in coordination with local authorities.
The Galveston County Sheriff’s Office said its personnel also responded to the plane crash near the base of the causeway.
"Sheriff’s Office personnel, including the dive team, crime scene unit, drone unit and patrol are assisting at the scene," the sheriff’s office said, adding that the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is leading the crash investigation with the help of the sheriff’s office and Galveston Police Department.
Fox News Digital has reached out to DPS and the Michou and Mau Foundation for additional information about the crash.
Quote:House Speaker Mike Johnson warned on Sunday that President Donald Trump could be impeached if Republicans lose the majority in the House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections.
"If we lose the House majority, the radical left, as you’ve already heard, is going to impeach President Trump. They’re going to create absolute chaos. We cannot let that happen," Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana, said at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest conference.
Kiersten Pels, the Republican National Committee's national press secretary, told Newsweek, "Democrats have made it clear that if they regain power, their agenda won’t be bringing down costs or securing the border — it will be launching partisan impeachment crusades against President Trump and his administration. If Democrats take back Congress, Americans can expect obstruction, impeachments, and government shutdowns instead of the safer streets and lower prices they voted for last year.”
Why It Matters
Even if Democrats win the House majority in the upcoming midterm elections and vote to impeach Trump, it is unlikely he would face removal in the Senate. Removal requires a two-thirds majority vote.
Trump was impeached twice during his first term, once in 2019 and again in 2021. The Senate voted to acquit Trump both times, allowing him to remain in office.
What To Know
Earlier this month, 140 Democrats in the House of Representatives voted against tabling a motion to impeach Trump.
The effort failed to receive the majority needed to move forward, with 214 House Republicans voting to table the measure. Six Republicans did not vote. Additionally, 23 Democrats voted to table the resolution and 47 Democrats voted "present."
Representative Al Green, a Texas Democrat, filed the articles of impeachment. The resolution listed two articles. The first accused Trump of abusing presidential power in a Truth Social post accusing several Democratic lawmakers of "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH." The White House said Trump was not seeking their executions.
The second article accused Trump of threatening judicial independence by attacking federal judges online.
While the majority of House Democrats voted against tabling the resolution, top House Democrats voted "present."
House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Democratic Whip Katherine Clark and Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar said in a joint statement before the vote, "Impeachment is a sacred constitutional vehicle designed to hold a corrupt executive accountable for abuse of power, breaking the law and violating the public trust. The effort traditionally requires a comprehensive investigative process, the collection and review of thousands of documents, an exacting scrutiny of the facts, the examination of dozens of key witnesses, Congressional hearings, sustained public organizing and the marshaling of the forces of democracy to build a broad national consensus. None of that serious work has been done, with the Republican majority focused solely on rubber stamping Donald Trump’s extreme agenda."
LATIN AMERICA
Quote:The United States has stopped a vessel off the coast of Venezuela, Reuters and the Associated Press reported on Saturday citing U.S. officials.
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed the actions in an X post, writing on Saturday, "In a pre-dawn action early this morning on Dec. 20, the US Coast Guard with the support of the Department of War apprehended an oil tanker that was last docked in Venezuela."
The Pentagon referred Newsweek to the White House on the matter when contacted for comment. Newsweek has reached out to the White House and U.S. Coast Guard for comment via email on Saturday.
Why It Matters
President Donald Trump has ordered a large-scale U.S. military buildup in the Caribbean and South American waters, including the deployment of an aircraft carrier, fighter jets and tens of thousands of troops, as part of what his administration has framed as expanded counter-narcotics and sanctions enforcement.
Reuters first reported the incident, writing that U.S. forces were intercepting and seizing the vessel, which would make it the second vessel seized by the U.S. in recent weeks. On Tuesday, Trump ordered a blockade on Venezuela's oil tankers, as he alleged that the South American country uses oil revenues to fund drug trafficking and crime.
Caracas has called the U.S. seizure of an oil tanker earlier this month an “act of international piracy,” adding that the move was part of a long-running strategy to take control of its natural resources.
What To Know
Reuters first reported that a vessel off Venezuela's coast was being seized by the U.S. The outlet noted the Coast Guard was the leading agency on the matter. The AP reported that the tanker stopped voluntarily and allowed U.S. forces to come on board, citing a U.S. official who described it as "consented boarding."
Since Trump’s Tuesday announcement ordering a “total and complete blockade of all sanctioned oil tankers going into, and out of, Venezuela,” many loaded vessels have stayed in Venezuela waters instead of risking potential seizure.
Venezuela has the largest known oil reserves in the world. Its crude oil exports have dropped off following Trump’s announcement. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has said Trump is trying to seize the country’s oil and force him from office.
In a statement obtained by the AP, Venezuela's government said in a Saturday statement: "The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela categorically denounces and rejects the theft and hijacking of another private vessel transporting Venezuelan oil, as well as the enforced disappearance of its crew, perpetrated by United States military personnel in international waters."
Quote:The US Coast Guard is pursuing an oil tanker in international waters near Venezuela, officials told Reuters on Sunday, in what would be the second such operation this weekend and the third in less than a week.
One of the officials said the tanker was under sanctions. The officials, who were speaking on the condition of anonymity, did not give a specific location for the operation.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Sunday.
President Trump last week announced a “blockade” of all oil tankers under sanctions entering and leaving Venezuela.
Trump’s pressure campaign on Venezuela’s President Nicolas Maduro has included a ramped-up military presence in the region and more than two dozen military strikes on vessels in the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea near the South American nation. At least 100 people have been killed in the attacks.
The White House’s National Economic Council Director, Kevin Hassett, said on Sunday that the first two oil tankers seized were operating on the black market and providing oil to sanctioned countries.
“And so I don’t think that people need to be worried here in the US that the prices are going to go up because of these seizures of these ships,” Hassett said. “There’s just a couple of them, and they were black market ships.”
But one oil trader told Reuters that the seizures raise geopolitical risks and probably will push oil prices higher when Asian trading resumes on Monday. On the other hand, expectations of an end to the war in Ukraine could help keep oil’s price gains in check, the trader said.
Quote:Cuban agents are protecting Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro as tensions flare with the US — as American forces seized a third oil tanker in the Caribbean on Sunday.
The counterintelligence forces from Cuba have been making sure the embattled Maduro is surrounded by security around the clock and no one around him carries phones or other electronic devices, according to reporting by the Wall Street Journal.
“They are taking very good care of Nicolás Maduro and his immediate successors,” said Thomas A. Shannon Jr., a former high-ranking US diplomat who spoke to the Journal. “The Cubans are not going to go quietly into the dark night.”
The seizing of oil vessels could create a crisis-level shortage in Cuba, which gets a majority of its oil from longtime longtime community ally Venezuela.
Cuban agents have long been a presence in the country but recently ramped up protection of Maduro as President Donald Trump has criticized the country’s government, built up US military presence in the ocean near the South American country and announced a “blockade.”
Earlier this month, American forces seized a ship carrying over 1 million barrels of oil to Cuba, and on Saturday a Bella 1 tanker flying a Panamanian flag was seized as it headed to Venezuela to load up, according to Bloomberg.
Without oil imports, experts warn the Cuban energy grid is on the brink, with frequent power outages plaguing the island.
In response to mounting tensions between Caracas and Washington, Maduro has sought to keep appearances up, posting consistently on Tiktok. On Saturday, he posted a video of himself singing “No War, Yes Peace” – a hit remix of his voice – to some parrots at a zoo.

Se pierde de vista la hermosura de Venezuela. Estamos en el país más bello y bendecido. ¡Venezuela es Tierra de Dios!
A Quick Translation of Maduro's Words:
You lose sight of the beauty of Venezuela. We live in the most beatiful and blessed country. Venezuela is God's Land!
Quote:WASHINGTON — President Trump on Monday warned Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro against taking military action against the United States, telling reporters from Florida that “if he plays tough, it’ll be the last time he’s ever able to play tough.”
The remark came after Trump was asked why Maduro should take “seriously” Washington’s pressure campaign to force him to leave office after stealing the past two presidential elections in that country and running a narcoterrorist state.
“He could do whatever he wants. We have a massive Armada formed; the biggest we’ve ever had, and by far the biggest we’ve ever had in South America,” Trump said. “He could do whatever he wants. It’s alright, whatever he wants to do.”
It came hours after US Southern Command showed off the efforts of roughly 2,200 Marines training in the Caribbean this month in a series of eye-popping photos on Monday as the Trump administration ramps up pressure on Maduro.
Part of the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Force, the troops were pictured firing mortar systems in live-fire drills during “reconnaissance, selection and occupation of position” maneuvers recently and training on first-person view attack drones in Puerto Rico, as well as conducting flight operations aboard the amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima in the Caribbean Sea.
The photos — taken between Nov. 20 and Dec. 16 — tell a story of a combat-ready force as the US builds pressure on Maduro’s authoritarian, narcoterrorist regime, the Atlantic Council’s Alex Plitsas told The Post on Monday.
“It’s meant to demonstrate capability and capacity, and in some cases, it can also be signaling to adversaries,” he said.
Still, the former senior US intelligence officer and Iraq war veteran said the 2,200-strong force is not nearly large enough to conduct a ground invasion into Venezuela to overthrow Maduro by force and keep the country stable in its aftermath.
“It’s more pressure to try to get him to step down … but it appears that the administration is still trying to [get Maduro to] step down voluntarily without having to take military action,” Plitsas said, noting that it would take an estimated 100,000 troops to invade Venezuela.
But that doesn’t rule out the possibility of airstrikes on land targets, which President Trump has floated multiple times as a possibility, he added.
Asked whether he believes the US’ pressure campaign on Venezuela would be enough to “force Maduro from power,” Trump said “probably.”
“I can’t tell — that’s up to him, what he wants to do,” Trump said. “I think it would be smart for him to do that. But again, we’re going to find out.”
Also on Monday, the Associated Press reported that the Russian government — which signed a security agreement with Venezuela this year and has been accused of shipping military equipment to the US adversary — has begun evacuating the families of its diplomats in the South American country.
The report, which cited unnamed European officials, said that Russian Foreign Ministry officials assess the situation in Venezuela “in very grim tones.”
UKRAINE WAR
Quote:Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov warned that NATO and his nation had moved dangerously close to direct conflict in 2025, warning of the "catastrophic consequences" of nuclear-powered nations going to war.
The ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin pointed to actions viewed as aggressive from the United States and its allies.
"This was actively supported by some of the most hawkish European NATO members, notably Britain and France, whose actions were particularly aggressive," Ryabkov warned, Russia's Tass news agency reported on Monday.
Why It Matters
Russian officials have issued several warnings in recent weeks over global conflicts and diplomatic decisions, as tensions around whether a wider conflict between Russia and Europe, or other nations, could erupt have continued. Last week, as the Trump administration made bolder moves in the Caribbean, Russia said it would be a fatal mistake for the U.S. to escalate its actions against longtime ally Venezuela.
What To Know
Pointing to concerns about direct military confrontation between nuclear-powered nations, Ryabkov said: "It’s redundant to emphasize, especially for this audience, that such a conflict would have catastrophic consequences."
The comments came as part of a discussion at the Valdai Discussion Club, where the official spoke of moves by former U.S. President Joe Biden at the end of 2024, seeking a "strategic defeat" of Russia, that he said were highly provocative.
For much of 2025, Russia has been involved in negotiations with the Trump administration and Ukraine, all seeking an end to the war between the two nations that began with Russia's invasion on February 24, 2022. While some progress has been made, attacks have continued from both sides, while the U.S. and other NATO nations have cautioned of the potential for the fighting to spread and escalate, with the threat of nuclear weapons.
On Monday, Ukrainian forces hit an oil terminal, a pipeline, two parked fighter jets and two ships as part of a series of strikes on Russian soil, as they struggle to hold back Russia's army on home territory. A top Russian general was killed in a car bomb in Moscow, with investigators suspecting that Ukraine was behind the attack.
NATO nations have largely thrown their support behind Ukraine, rather than Russia, and that has added to the already-strained ties between Moscow and the likes of France, Germany and the U.K.
Quote:Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said negotiations toward a potential peace agreement with Russia have produced a “solid” 20-point framework that includes proposed security guarantees involving the United States and European allies.
Speaking as Ukraine’s negotiating team returned from talks in Miami, Zelensky said in a post on X that the core elements of the plan and related documents are largely complete, though key issues remain unresolved. He described the drafts as dignified and close to a real outcome while acknowledging that some provisions are unacceptable to both Kyiv and Moscow.
U.S. officials, he said, are continuing discussions with Russian representatives and are expected to relay feedback to Ukraine.
Why It Matters
The potential for a comprehensive ceasefire in the war between Russia and Ukraine that began with the Russian invasion on February 24, 2022, has drawn international attention, given the devastating human and economic costs of the conflict and its impact on regional security.
The U.S.-steered negotiations reflect Washington's commitment to forging a settlement, and the proposed 20-point plan, with substantial security guarantees, could shape the future security architecture of Eastern Europe.
A breakthrough, if achieved, may influence global energy markets, international law and future NATO-EU security arrangements.
What To Know
Zelensky said Monday that initial U.S. proposals "meet many of Kyiv's demands," with nearly 90 percent of Ukraine's requests incorporated into the draft agreements. The core of the latest peace effort is a 20-point plan, which serves as the foundation of ongoing discussions between Ukraine, Russia, the United States, and European allies.
According to Zelensky, recent negotiations held in Florida have produced framework documents on both multilateral and bilateral security guarantees for Ukraine, with major provisions still under debate.
The plan reportedly includes stipulations that the Ukrainian army remains at a peacetime size of 800,000, as well as steps toward European Union membership for Ukraine.
Security in the air, on land, and at sea would be guaranteed by European forces under the leadership of France and the U.K., with a "backstop" from the United States.
European countries would also contribute to Ukraine’s energy, financial, and civil infrastructure security. Zelensky said that the bilateral security document with the U.S. should undergo review by Congress, with classified annexes shielding sensitive details.
While diplomatic talks continue, military activity has not abated. Ukrainian armed forces have claimed to strike multiple targets deep inside Russian territory and in Russian-occupied areas, aiming to disrupt the war effort and contest Russian claims of strength at the negotiation table.
Russian forces, meanwhile, have kept up their attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. Both sides reported escalating drone strikes and missile exchanges overnight, with civilian infrastructure again in the crosshairs.
According to Ukrainian officials, a central point of the peace framework is the involvement of the U.S. and Europe in future security guarantees for Ukraine. Zelensky insisted on congressional review for any binding document, while suggesting some annexes remain classified due to sensitive information or national security concerns.
Quote:A Russian general was killed in Moscow Monday by a bomb planted on his car — and local authorities say they think Ukrainian intelligence could be responsible.
The blast happened early Monday morning on Yaseneva Street in a middle-class neighborhood. Images from the scene showed officers and investigators establishing a perimeter around several damaged cars.
Lt. Gen. Fanil Sarvarov, 56, who heads the Operational Training Directorate of the Russian Armed Forces’ General Staff, died of his wounds, authorities said.
He’s the third senior military leader killed in a bombing attack inside Russia this year.
“Investigators are pursuing numerous lines of inquiry regarding the murder. One of these is that the crime was orchestrated by Ukrainian intelligence services,” said Svetlana Petrenko, a spokesperson for Russia’s Investigative Committee.
Savarov was a veteran of the war in Chechnya and took part in Moscow’s military campaign in Syria, Russia’s defense ministry said.
Ukraine has not claimed responsibility for the bombing, and Russian President Vladimir Putin was informed about Sarvarov’s death, according to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
Kyiv did, however, take responsibility for a similar bombing last December in which Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov, head of Russia’s nuclear, biological and chemical protection force was killed by a bomb planted in a scooter a day after Kyiv leveled criminal charges against him.
Putin called Kirillov’s killing a “severe blunder,” and said Russian special services must redouble their efforts to prevent similar attacks moving forward.
In April, Russian military officer Lt. Gen. Yaroslav Moskalik also died in a car bombing in Moscow, after which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he had been briefed about the successful “liquidation” of Russian military leaders, but did not directly mention Moskalik.
The latest bombing targeting the upper echelons of Russia’s military comes amid tenuous peace talks between Russia, Ukraine and the US, with Russian officials saying the negotiations were advancing “constructively” despite recent missile attacks in the Ukrainian port city of Odesa.
Quote:Vice President JD Vance glumly assessed that the Trump administration’s efforts to peacefully resolve the bloody war in Ukraine could go either way.
“We’re going to keep on trying to negotiate. And I think that we’ve made progress, but sitting here today, I wouldn’t say with confidence that we’re going to get to a peaceful resolution,” the veep bluntly assessed in an Unheard interview.
“I think there’s a good chance we will, I think there’s a good chance we won’t.”
Vance’s candid assessment is one of the more gloomy ones he’s given about the chances of ending the war over recent months.
It comes after Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters last Friday that there is a “ways to go” on getting a final deal across the finish line.
Late last week and over the weekend, special envoy Steve Witkoff met separately with Russian and Ukrainian negotiators in a bid to inch forward progress on a potential peace deal. Vance was briefed on those talks.
“The breakthrough that I do feel that we’ve made is that all of the issues are actually out in the open,” the VP told the outlet. “There’s [initially] a little bit of a game of obfuscation, of hiding behind fake issues, not actually revealing your hand.”
“The Russians really want territorial control of the Donetsk,” he continued.”The Ukrainians understandably see that as a major security problem, [even as] they privately acknowledge that eventually, they’ll probably lose Donetsk — but, eventually: it could be 12 months from now, it could be longer than that.”
By some estimates, the Russians control between 80% and 90% of Donetsk, but crucially lack possession of strategic cities such as Kramatorsk and Slovyansk.
The VP also noted that other issues, such as ethnic Russians and Ukrainians being in the other country, control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, and reconstruction, have also proven to be tough sticking points.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that his country’s constitution percludes him from surrendering land that hasn’t been conquered.
Zelensky has dangled the possibility of placing 15% of the Donbas — Donetsk and Luhansk — that Ukraine still controls into a neutral free economic zone. Russia has rejected that.
MIDDLE EAST
Quote:WASHINGTON — Iran launched a fresh round of ballistic missile tests Monday — six months after its 12-day war with Israel — leading officials from the Jewish state to warn the Trump administration that Tehran may be rehearsing another attack.
Missile launches were seen in the cities of Tehran, Isfahan, Mashhad, Khorramabad and Mahabad, according to Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency. State-affiliated broadcaster Nournews also broadcast videos that appeared to show projectiles being fired.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his government was “aware that Iran is conducting military exercises. We are monitoring this and making the necessary preparations.
“I want to make it clear to Iran,” Netanyahu added in a statement, “any action against Israel will be met with a very harsh response.”
Tehran launched more than 500 ballistic missiles at Israel during the June 13-June 24 war, killing 28 Israelis.
That conflict, which began with Israel’s “Operation Rising Lion” bombing campaign on Iranian nuclear and military sites, ended after President Trump ordered US strikes on three major nuclear facilities June 22 and followed that by pressing both combatants to agree to a cease-fire.
Half a year later, Iran is rejecting any notion that the theocratic regime would disarm — with Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei telling reporters Monday that the continuance of the country’s missile program is non-negotiable.
“Iran’s defensive capabilities are by no means an issue that can be discussed,” he said.
Over the weekend, Israeli officials warned the US that the missile tests could provide cover for a new barrage targeting Tel Aviv, Axios reported Sunday.
“The chances for an Iranian attack are less than 50%, but nobody is willing to take the risk and just say it is only an exercise,” an Israeli source told the outlet.
Behnam Ben Taleblu, senior director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies’ Iran program, said Monday that while missile tests are “nothing new in Iran,” the “strategic context” is cause for concern.
“The Islamic Republic’s high level of interest in missiles was underscored by the war in June, as they were the only element of its security architecture that proved effective,” Ben Taleblu said in a statement. “That’s why the regime continues to invest in these systems.”
Monday’s tests “highlight the need for the US and Israel to rapidly replenish their stocks of defensive missile interceptors,” added FDD senior director of government relations Tyler Stapleton.
Former Hamas hostage warned leaders of rising antisemitism months before deadly Bondi Beach shooting
Quote:A former Hamas hostage told Fox News Digital that he warned Australian leaders to take antisemitism more seriously months before the deadly shooting at Bondi Beach.
Eli Sharabi, who spent 491 days as a hostage in Gaza, said the attack on Bondi Beach was “crazy,” but far from unpredictable.
Sharabi told Fox News Digital that while in Australia in June, he met with Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles and Foreign Minister Penny Wong and warned them that rising antisemitism would lead to something worse.
Sharabi recalled telling the officials that a hate crime would take place in Australia and that he would “see the fears” of Jewish people walking on the streets.
He urged them to speak out against antisemitism before it was too late.
He recounted to Fox News Digital the moment he told Marles and Wong, “When it happens, a hate crime here, it will be your responsibility because you have to have a stronger voice against antisemitism.”
Though, Sharabi said he did not know why he told them that at the time.
“Unfortunately, it happened. And that’s crazy, it’s crazy. Really, I’m so sorry for that,” he said.
A spokesperson for Wong said that she “deeply appreciated her meeting with Eli Sharabi and thanks him for sharing his insights and experiences.”
“Minister Wong has consistently condemned antisemitism and antisemitic attacks,” the spokesperson said.
“In response to the horrific antisemitic terror attack at Bondi, we are further strengthening laws against those who spread antisemitism and online abuse, ensuring our education system properly responds to antisemitism, and lowering the threshold to cancel visas for those who come to Australia to spread antisemitism.”
The spokesperson also conveyed Wong’s sympathies to the loved ones of the Bondi Beach shooting victims.
Quote:Richmond, California’s socialist Mayor Eduardo Martinez sported a red hat emblazoned with “Death Death to the IDF” and spewed antisemitic rhetoric at a pro-Palestinian conference earlier this year — that also gave a microphone to a well-known terrorist.
Martinez, who came under fire this week for sharing conspiracy theories about the Bondi Beach terror attack, has a disturbing, documented history of hate.
The proud member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) opened the Detroit conference in August and drew tremendous applause when he explicitly justified Hamas’s bloodthirsty attacks on Israel that killed over 1,200 people on Oct. 7, 2023.
The mayor proclaimed, “If Palestine were a schoolyard playground, I would be a Palestinian. And that part of me, that part of me that couldn’t endure the abuse anymore, would be Hamas,” according to The Jewish News of Northern California.
“After so much torture, I couldn’t help but lash out. I was filled with frustration, and it came out with the ferocity of retaliation,” he added.
Meanwhile, social media posts from the event show Martinez in a hat with the initials “DD TT IDF” — an acronym for “Death Death to the IDF” — and a big smile on his face.
Convicted terrorist Hossam Shaheen, a member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades who served more than 20 years in an Israeli prison for attempted murder and conspiracy to commit murder in relation to a failed terror plot, also spoke at the conference, the Jerusalem Post reported.
Shaheen was freed as part of a temporary Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement in early 2025.
Martinez has also posted other eyebrow-raising content on social media.
The Bay Area mayor announced his Richmond Mayor’s Office would be closed “in solidarity with this week’s global strike for Palestine” in January 2024. Over 4,400 people praised the post.
His office also raised a Palestinian flag over the California State flag in what he said was “in commemoration of our new sister city partnership with Sabastia, Palestine.”
A picture posted on Instagram shows the flag flying above the California State flag, again to high praise, with over 12,000 likes.
