The suspect in the stabbing of two Jewish men in Golders Green, London, on Wednesday has been identified as a 45-year-old migrant from Somalia. In what is being treated as a terrorist incident, two men, identified as Shilome Rand, 34, and Moshe Shine, 76, were stabbed in the Golders Green area of North London. Both suffered injuries, forcing them to be hospitalised; however, both are now said to be in stable condition. In dramatic scenes plastered across social media, police were filmed using tasers and kicks to incapacitate the suspected knifeman after he apparently attempted to stab officers as well and was…
Tuesday on CNN’s “News Central,” network chief media analyst Brian Stelter claimed comedian Jimmy Kimmel had “all the power” in the current fight over his White House Correspondents’ dinner monologue in which he said Melania Trump had the “glow like an expectant widow.” Both the first lady and the president have called on ABC to fire Kimmel. Stelter said, “My indication, you know, Disney is being tight-lipped about this, so on the record, nobody there is saying anything about Kimmel. But my sense talking with sources, making calls overnight, is that Disney is absolutely standing by Kimmel, and you can see that because he was…
Top Republicans are growing increasingly anxious that the Senate, once seen as a lock for the party to hold in the midterms, is at risk of flipping as Democrats continue to hammer President Donald Trump for the cost of living and foreign intervention in Iran. That fear is laid out in a new memo, shared exclusively with POLITICO, from the powerful GOP and Koch-aligned super PAC Americans for Prosperity Action, whose leaders are calling on the GOP to lock in on the cost of living or risk losing power in Washington. “As it stands today, our view is that the…

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned that a global recession is coming, thanks to the war with Iran. Any further escalation would trigger a global recession that would harm the United Kingdom far more than any other G7 country. In its half-yearly update, the IMF said the UK would suffer the sharpest growth downgrade and the joint highest inflation rate in the G7 this year, even if the fallout from soaring energy costs can be contained by the middle of 2026, according to a report by The Guardian. The IMF added that if a worst-case “severe scenario” unfolds, involving a drawn-out…
The Spanish government’s ongoing mass amnesty for illegal migrants has already caused a functional collapse of social services across Madrid, a report states. The administration of socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez is presently on the first weeks of its highly-controversial plan to grant as many as half a million illegal migrants with legal residence status and work permits, provided they comply with a list of — extremely lax and questionably enforced — requirements. The amnesty plan officially went into action in mid-April and will run through the end of June. Unnamed Madrid municipal sources told Spanish publication Okdiario that the sheer…
On Wednesday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “All In,” Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) responded to criticism of gas prices in California by the Trump administration by arguing that “they have full ownership of this energy crisis, full ownership of the high gas prices, full ownership of the increase in utility bills.” Host Chris Hayes asked, “Finally, every time that we show this national U.S. average gas prices graphic, which we’ve been showing a lot, I hear from viewers in California who say, buddy, you don’t know the half of it, I wish we were paying those national averages. It was very…
Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) is upping his rhetoric against President Donald Trump, referring to the duly elected commander-in-chief as “America’s chief insurrectionist” just days after yet another failed assassination attempt. Nadler used the divisive and false description this week as he promoted legislation to ban Trump’s name from appearing on federal buildings. “Donald Trump is a convicted felon, a twice impeached president, and America’s chief insurrectionist,” Nadler said, concluding that Trump’s name on a federal building or monument would be associated with “tyranny” as well. “His name is unfit to honor our nation’s buildings. I am proud to introduce…
Abu Dhabi’s break with the cartel could flood markets, rattle prices, and redraw power lines from Riyadh to Moscow The United Arab Emirates has announced its withdrawal from OPEC and the OPEC+ format effective May 1, 2026, ending nearly six decades of membership. This marks the largest institutional disruption to the oil production coordination system since the establishment of the expanded OPEC+ format in 2016 and is perceived by the market as a step towards weakening the group’s ability to influence global oil prices.At the same time, the move reflects Abu Dhabi’s strategic course towards maximizing its own production and…
