Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson lashed out at President Trump on Tuesday, accusing him of racism and refusing to engage in discussions over his administration’s immigration stance. Johnson, speaking at a press conference, went so far as to liken the president’s deportation policies to terrorism.
“Trying to force your will to break the spirit of working people in order to have a conversation, that’s terrorism. We’re not going to negotiate with terrorists,” Johnson said, as quoted by the Chicago Tribune. He accused Trump of deliberately targeting regular Americans and using fear as a tactic.

What was nearly a tragedy turned into a powerful reminder of the Hashgacha Pratis that accompanies each Yid, wherever they may be—even in a Florida resort, on a sunny Chol Hamoed afternoon. Just 24 hours after pulling their unconscious two-year-old daughter from the water, the Cohen family of Baltimore gathered friends, family, and first responders for an emotional and deeply moving Seudas Hodaah. Their little girl, Aliza Rivka bas Chana, had been miraculously revived after a harrowing near-drowning accident—thanks to the quick actions of bystanders and the heroic intervention of Hatzalah of South Florida. The father, Levi Cohen, stood before the crowd, his voice thick with emotion. “You read about these kinds of stories on Yeshiva World News,” he said.

President Donald Trump stopped Israel from launching a planned assault on Iranian nuclear facilities, opting instead to pursue diplomacy with Tehran aimed at curbing its nuclear ambitions, according to a report published Wednesday by the New York Times, which cited officials within the administration and other sources.
The report stated that Israel had crafted a military strategy to strike Iran’s nuclear infrastructure as of May, intending to significantly delay Iran’s capacity to produce a nuclear weapon—potentially by more than a year.
According to the New York Times, Israel would have needed American military backing—not only to help shield it from an Iranian counterattack but also to ensure the operation’s overall effectiveness.

LONDON (AP) — You can have your cake and eat it too — just do it slowly.

President Donald Trump has reportedly halted Israeli plans to launch a military strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities, choosing instead to pursue a diplomatic deal with Tehran. According to a bombshell report by The New York Times, Trump personally informed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a high-stakes meeting at the White House that the United States would not support an Israeli-led attack—one that would have required critical American military backing. The revelation marks a dramatic shift in U.S. policy and a rare public rebuke of Israel’s security calculus, particularly as tensions with Iran continue to rise.
