The four leaders of the major opposition parties, Yair Lapid, Benny Gantz, Avigdor Lieberman, and Yair Golan, held a press conference on Wednesday at the Knesset in response to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s dismissal of Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Tuesday evening.

Former Attorney General Bill Barr, who served in President-elect Donald Trump’s first administration, is calling on prosecutors at the state and federal levels to dismiss the pending legal cases against Trump before he takes office once again. Barr told Fox News Digital that voters were well aware of all the allegations against Trump when electing him to a second term in office on Tuesday, and that it is in the country’s best interest for prosecutors to listen to them. “The American people have rendered their verdict on President Trump, and decisively chosen him to lead the country for the next four years,” Barr said.

Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party have just faced a resounding rejection from the American people, and the reasons are as clear as they are damning. For too long, Democrats thought they could sell a failing vision, attack their opponents with baseless accusations, and rely on a complicit media to shield them from accountability. But this election proved that people see right through it. First, the obsession with targeting Donald Trump backfired spectacularly. They arrested him, charged him, plastered his mugshots across every news outlet, and called him a “convicted felon.” The left-leaning legal crusaders like New York Attorney General Letitia James and Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg thought they could smear Trump into oblivion.

Prime Minister Netanyahu and his wife Sara congratulate Donald and Melania Trump on the former US president’s win in the elections. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (today, Wednesday, 6 November 2024): “Dear Donald and Melania Trump, Congratulations on history’s greatest comeback!

In true friendship, yours, Benjamin and Sara Netanyahu”

Republicans have captured control of the U.S. Senate, marking a major shift in power after a four-year stretch in the minority. Decision Desk HQ projected the win on Tuesday night, a much-anticipated outcome for the GOP after two previous disappointing election cycles. The Republicans secured the Senate by flipping two key seats: Bernie Moreno’s victory over incumbent Senator Sherrod Brown in Ohio, and West Virginia Governor Jim Justice’s win over the seat vacated by retiring Senator Joe Manchin. The victories capped a well-executed Republican strategy to challenge vulnerable Democratic seats across battleground states.

Democratic challenger Aron Wieder has unseated incumbent Republican Assemblyman John McGowan in New York’s 97th State Assembly District. Wieder, a long-serving Rockland County legislator, secured the seat by a narrow margin, reflecting the district’s dynamic political landscape. Wieder’s campaign emphasized his extensive experience in local governance and a commitment to addressing community-specific issues. His victory marks a significant shift in the district, which encompasses parts of Ramapo and Orangetown in southern Rockland County. McGowan, who has represented the district since 2023, focused his re-election efforts on his legislative accomplishments and ongoing projects. Despite a vigorous campaign, he was unable to maintain his seat in the face of Wieder’s challenge.

Political correspondent Yaki Adamkar said on Channel 14 on Monday evening that Defense Minister Yoav Gallant’s approval of another 7,000 initial draft orders to beni yeshivos was a politically motivated move. Adamkar elaborated that Gallant, who is well aware that the draft orders will be ignored by the vast majority of those who receive them, is taking revenge on Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu for seeking to remove him from his position as defense minister, a move that the prime minister actualized on Tuesday evening. “Everything is personal,” Adamkar said. “This announcement from Gallant [about the draft orders] is a death rattle.

As Americans head to the polls today, there’s an unusual path to victory that could see Donald Trump winning the presidency even if he loses the Electoral College vote. This scenario hinges on an emerging framework known as the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC), a state-led initiative aimed at ensuring that the presidential candidate who wins the national popular vote ultimately becomes President of the United States. If Trump wins the popular vote but Kamala Harris secures the Electoral College, Republican-led states could, theoretically, adopt the NPVIC in a last-minute bid to keep Trump in office. The U.S. Electoral College has long been a point of contention, especially for its ability to produce a president who didn’t win the popular vote.

In a heated exchange on Fox & Friends Monday, Fox News host Brian Kilmeade confronted Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) over Vice President Kamala Harris’s reluctance to address crime, particularly her refusal to comment on a tough-on-crime ballot initiative in California during her recent voting. Kilmeade started by highlighting Harris’s silence on Proposition 36, a California measure aimed at cracking down on shoplifting, drug trafficking, and other serious offenses. “Senator, how do you feel about Axios calling her the ‘no comment’ candidate on this issue and Prop 36 out in California?” Kilmeade asked pointedly, pressing Murphy to explain Harris’s avoidance of the topic.
