Vice President JD Vance announced Tuesday that he will visit Greenland later this week as part of a high-profile U.S. delegation, following renewed calls from President Donald Trump for the United States to take over the vast Arctic island.
Trump has repeatedly stated that Greenland holds strategic value for U.S. national security and that Washington should pursue control of the territory. However, the idea has been firmly rejected by both the governments of Greenland and Denmark, with polls consistently showing that nearly all Greenlanders oppose becoming part of the United States.
“Looking forward to visiting Greenland on Friday,” Vance posted on the social media platform X, along with a video in which he elaborated on the purpose of the trip.

Yeshiva University President Rabbi Dr. Ari Berman issued a statement Tuesday evening addressing the recent outrage surrounding the university’s policies, following the announcement of the Hareni same-gender club as an officially recognized undergraduate student group. “I deeply apologize to the members of our community—our students and parents, alumni and friends, faculty and Rabbis—for the way the news was rolled out,” Berman wrote.

Texas legislators are reviewing a proposal that would restrict individuals using the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) from spending those funds on unhealthy food choices. This legislative move comes as former President Donald Trump’s administration pushes forward with its Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) initiative.
The legislation under review, known as Senate Bill 379, was introduced by Republican State Senator Mayes Middleton of Galveston. The bill would prohibit SNAP recipients from using their benefits on items such as soda, candy, cookies, chips, and energy drinks, according to a report by Fox 4, a Dallas-Fort Worth news station.

JUST IN: State Senator Simcha Felder has been elected NYC Councilman for the 44th District, defeating Heshy Tishler and filling the vacant seat previously held by Kalman Yeger, who became a New York State Assemblyman earlier this year. The 44th District covers parts of Boro Park, Midwood, and Flatbush. Felder’s term will run through the end of the year, after which he must run in the June primaries and win the general election to secure a full four-year term. A special election is also expected to be scheduled for his now-vacant Senate seat.

CNN’s senior data analyst Harry Enten shared on Tuesday’s “News Central” that the current level of optimism among Americans about the nation’s direction is remarkably high during President Donald Trump’s second term.

Your article about Yeshiva University is not only inaccurate—it fails to convey the full story, especially the deeper context. On top of that, it borders on motzi shem ra and lashon hara. Who do you and your readers think you are, playing God—pretending to know why things happen and focusing on finding fault in others? We are living in a time when the world is revealing its true colors toward the Jewish people. Haman, Hitler, and Hamas did not discriminate among Jews—they hated us all equally. The painful irony is that while the world unites in its hatred, we divide ourselves in the name of “defending God.” But God is big enough to handle His own judgment. He doesn’t need our help condemning others. What God truly cares about—and perhaps does not forgive—is how we treat one another.

A pilot and two children survived on the wing of a plane for about 12 hours after it crashed and was partially submerged in an icy Alaska lake, then were rescued after being spotted by a Good Samaritan. Terry Godes said he saw a Facebook post Sunday night calling for people to help search for the missing plane. On Monday morning, he headed toward Tustumena Lake near the toe of a glacier and spotted what he thought was wreckage. “It kind of broke my heart to see that, but as I got closer down and lower, I could see that there’s three people on top of the wing,” he told The Associated Press on Tuesday. After saying a little prayer, he continued to get closer and saw a miracle. “They were alive and responsive and moving around,” he said, adding they waved at him as he approached.
