An "under pressure" Donald Trump was spotted "freezing" up in a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Body language expert Judi James, speaking to The Mirror US, believes the encounter at Mar-a-Lago had an unexpected pause that caught Trump and Netanyahu off guard. Trump was spotted freezing momentarily as he spoke with Israel's prime minister, which James has suggested is a sign of growing pressure for the president.

"Losing track or 'freezing' mid-flow is a common experience for most people," James said, "especially when they are tired or feeling under pressure, but it will usually come with compensatory signals like a clicking of the fingers or filler noises or winding gestures to fill the gap and explain the search for the right word, but there are no signs of any of these from Trump here."...

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), long one of Congress' most enthusiastic supporters of Israel in the war against Gaza, was one of those most eager to greet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he arrived on Capitol Hill to give his address.

But there was a small detail the internet noticed about him: he was wearing a meticulously tailored suit for the occasion.

That wouldn't stand out on any other senator, but Fetterman has made it a point, and a part of his brand, not to wear a suit, eschewing it in favor of his signature hoodie at every turn. He has, at times, clashed with fellow senators over whether he is complying with Senate rules, and has sometimes even been seen sarcastically wearing a hoodie with a tuxedo image on it at some functions....

Protesters unleashed maggots, crickets and mealworms at the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C., where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is staying.

A video posted on Instagram by the Palestinian Youth Movement and its DMV chapter showed swarms of insects with the caption: "BON APPETIT!! MAGGOTS REPORTEDLY RELEASED ON THE CRIMINAL ZIONIST’S WAR TABLE!"

"Protestors reportedly manufactured chaos at the Watergate Hotel last night so that Netanyahu, Israeli Mossad agents, and the Secret Service had no peace as they continue to terrorize our people."...

Washington (AFP) - US President Joe Biden said Monday he had told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to send a team to Washington to discuss how to avoid an all-out assault in the southern Gaza city of Rafah. The move is one of the clearest attempts yet by Biden to rein in the key US ally, amid fears that the already huge death toll and humanitarian crisis in Gaza could be drastically worsened by a full attack on Rafah.  The White House said separately that Israel had killed one of Hamas's top commanders in a strike in Gaza. "I asked the Prime Minister to send a team to Washington to di......

Former President Donald Trump sat down with Univision for an interview in which he promised his second term would be all about going after his enemies list.

In a leaked transcript provided to Semafor, Trump justified his next campaign against his perceived enemies, saying he would pursue the same course he did in his first time but further.

“Yeah. If they do this, and they’ve already done it, but if they follow through on this, yeah, it could certainly happen in reverse,” he rambled, justifying his future retribution. “It could certainly happen in reverse. What they’ve done is they’ve released the genie out of the box.” ...

Former President Donald Trump inflated the role Israel played in the drone strike that eliminated Iran's top general, according to an NBC News report citing three U.S. officials who were privy to the mission.

"They were never on board with it," a former senior White House official told the network, referring to Israel and its participation in the slaying of Qasem Soleimani, purported to be the head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force. "They always thought it was a dangerous and destabilizing idea.”

NBC News also spoke with an ex-Trump administration official who was involved in the preparation of the killing and said at the moment Trump had ordered the generals to commit the Soleimani strike, they took a collective deep breath....
