Israel has given Hamas plenty of time to negotiate. Negotiations are over. Israel is bombing the hell out of Hamas. I said during Trump’s first term, that one of the things he does is reconnaissance. When things don’t matter, he test them, just to see what will happen. There’s no election now and polls are meaningless …

Ukraine is willing to have a ceasefire. I said that Russia already agreed to this, but is not telling anybody. Let’s see if we get a ceasefire in the next two weeks. Joy Behar: We should cut SpaceX because we already have NASA. Garfield: We should cut The View because we already have Animal Planet …

Trump said for the umpteenth time: “Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid will not be cut.” Mexico’s extradited 29 drug kingpins to the United States. The Mexican President is doing everything not to get a tariff against Mexican goods …

There are sanctuary cities that under state law, they don’t play ball with the feds. In that case, ICE should go to the neighborhoods and start arresting people wholesale. They simply say: “ You want to protect the dangerous criminals? Then we’ll just arrest your neighbors until you’re ready to turn the criminals in.” …

On Thursday, Hamas will return the bodies of the Bibas family, which includes two young children. This will be heartbreaking for the Israeli public. In addition on Saturday, Hamas will release the last six hostages in phase one of the ceasefire. I think on Saturday night Israel should attack Iran with the United States, taking out their nuclear reactors and the Ayatollahs. I don’t think anything less than this we’ll soothe the Israeli soul …

Spain, Ireland and Norway that have recognized the Palestinians, and now have a legal obligation to allow Gazans to enter their territory. Israel has said they’ll let any Palestinian who wants to leave , leave for any country that will take them. Between Bibi and Trump this is beautiful thing. Marco Rubio has determined that USAID needs only 294 staffers out of 14,000 …

New York is trying to delay the special election for Elise Stefanik, as much as possible. This is very reminiscent of when Massachusetts had the special election for Ted Kennedy’s seat. The Democratic Legislature rammed through a bill calling for a special election instead of allowing Governor Romney to name a replacement for Kennedy. (BTW- Scott Brown GOP won.) …

Donald Trump fired Jose Andres, head of the World Central Kitchen. They were allowing Hamas to use World Central Kitchen trucks and other equipment. This is another non-profit pretending to be helping people, when it is really home to a terrorist organization. Four IDF female soldiers were released in the last hostage exchange …

Happy New Year. I am writing this column this week. Next week I am on a cruise. The following week Trump is sworn in on Monday, and I will probably write my column on Wednesday. Let the good time’s role. I just saw the greatest ad: Support Voter ID. Don’t Let Trump Cheat. Republicans are starting to get very smart about how to market to Democrats …

Open enrollment ends this Saturday, December 7th. Sometimes we can get you an extension, but please let us know in advance. 855 561 0500. According to Carolyn Glick, 40% of Jews voted for Donald Trump. Incredible percentage. Now when Trump’s attorneys in 2025 respond to the Alvin Bragg case, they are doing it with the full White House behind them. All of a sudden Bragg’s office will look like a speck of dust …
