Iran fires hundreds of missiles in multiple strikes into Israel, IDF issues shelter in place order

By Stephen Sorace , Liz Friden | Fox News Iran launched dozens of missiles against Israel on Tuesday, a barrage of strikes it says are in response to the deaths of Hezbollah and Hamas leaders. Israel Defense Forces (IDF) warned citizens to shelter in place and follow instructions from the Home Front Command as the Jewish State's Iron Dome anti-missile defense system works to intercept incoming rockets. "During the defense, we carried out quite a few interceptions," IDF spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said after the attack was over. "There are some impacts in the center and areas in the south of the country." READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS

Iran has already made attempts on Trump’s life that ‘didn’t work out,’ he says

By Olivia Land andCaitlin Doornbos | New York Post Former President Donald Trump revealed early Wednesday that Iran is behind ongoing plots to assassinate him — unprecedented activity by a US adversary. “Big threats on my life by Iran. The entire U.S. [sic] Military is watching and waiting,” Trump, 78, wrote on Truth Social — just hours after Ryan Wesley Routh was charged with attempting to assassinate Trump on his South Florida golf course earlier this month. “Moves were already made by Iran that didn’t work out, but they will try again. Not a good situation for anyone,” the Republican nominee for president continued. “I am surrounded by more men, guns, and weapons than I have ever seen before. Thank you to Congr...

House Judiciary investigation launched into Iran sending Democrats hacked Trump campaign info

By Katie Pavlich | Townhall House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan has officially launched an investigation into hacked materials that were stolen from the Trump campaign by Iran and distributed to Biden -- now Harris -- campaign officials earlier this year.

US ‘sleepwalking’ into WWIII, experts warn nation is underprepared

By Caitlin McFall  | Fox News The U.S. is "sleepwalking" into a global war against its top adversaries united under an axis of "malign partnerships," and experts are sounding the alarm that neither the U.S. military nor the public are prepared for World War III. In late July, a body of non-governmental national security experts, first tasked by Congress in 2022 under the Commission on the National Defense Strategy, released an evaluation of the U.S.’ overall security strategy put forward by the Biden administration two years ago. The commission found that after decades of post-Cold War policies that cut defense spending and reduced investments in the security sector, Washington, D.C., is "not prepared" to counter Beijing in open conflict, let alone a multi-fron...

Colorado Libertarians call for end to Middle East violence, condemn all sides of conflict

By BRIAN PORTER | The Rocky Mountain Voice War and violence are never the answer to resolving international disputes, a statement from the Colorado Libertarian Party reads. The party has issued a statement condemning escalating conflict in the Middle East and calling for a peaceful resolution between Israel, Hamas and Iran. "We stand firmly against any and all acts of aggression, regardless of the parties involved," the statement reads. "The recent events in the Middle East have only served to further destabilize an already volatile region, resulting in the loss of innocent lives and the displacement of countless families." While the statement refers to the conflict as "Israel's war on Gaza", conflict between Israel and Palestinians has been ongoing since 1948, marked by the de...
