President Trump may be done for after Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff announced that the House would be investigating a fundraiser hosted by renown philanthropist Louis Scheiner which was attended by the President in New York City yesterday.

The nursing home giant is said to put millions of dollars annually into the Ukrainian economy, with the most recent boost having come this past September. Scheiner is said to also own real estate in Uman, located in the heart of Ukraine.
“We got him now,” Schiff told CNN reporters excitedly.  “The evidence is all there.”

MK Uri Maklev (United Torah Judaism) said on Monday that until Blue and White chairman Benny Gantz does not return the mandate to form a government to the president, there is no chance of a breakthrough in the contacts to form a unity government.

The US State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus told i24NEWS Tuesday that the US vehemently condemns the rocket attacks on its territory by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
She also took a jab at Iran, saying “we condemn the Iran regime which is ultimately the funder and facilitator of Palestinian Islamic Jihad.”
Ortagus stressed that Tuesday’s events were to a degree a product of the 2015 nuclear deal, as Tehran did not use the money unlocked by sanctions relief to build schools or hospitals for the Iranian people.
Instead, the funds went to its regional proxies, unleashing terror in the Middle East.

Former US ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley claims in her new book that in late 2017 then secretary of state Rex Tillerson attempted to thwart the White House’s plan to move the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Yerushalayim.
Titled “With all Due Respect,” Haley describes the former oil executive and others on the National Security Council were vehemently opposed to President Donald Trump’s plan to relocate the US mission to Israel.
“I supported the move. It was simply common sense,” Haley writes. “Embassies are located in capitals. In virtually every country in the world, the U.S. embassy is located in the host country’s capital city. Israel should be no different.”
