WATCH VIDEO: Are huge Mideast headlines coming soon? Trump & Netanyahu plot next moves on Iran, Gaza, Abraham Accords
Neither Trump nor Bibi scheduled the trip to make news. Rather, they wanted to spend hours sitting together in person — face to face, heart to heart — doing two things that are tough to accomplish over the phone or via Zoom. But don’t mistake the lack of big headlines for a lack of high-stakes strategy.
While it’s true we didn’t see huge headlines emerge from the Trump-Bibi meetings this week, I have no doubt they’re coming.

Peace without the Palestinian Authority? What Hebron’s bold peace pitch really means for Israel
New peace proposals rarely make headlines these days – let alone spark optimism. But a recently floated idea to create a series of self-governing Palestinian emirates in Judea and Samaria under Israeli oversight, while far from viable, offers something increasingly rare: a sliver of hope. His plan calls for Hebron to separate from the Palestinian Authority, establish its own emirate, and eventually join the Abraham Accords.
US to Stop Producing Pennies, Heralding a Pre-Messiah Economy

The Number Of Americans Dealing With Food Insecurity Has Almost Doubled Since 2021, And U.S. Store Closings Are On Pace For A New Record
Why has hunger in America absolutely exploded during the past 4 years? And why are store closings in the United States on pace to set a brand new record high this year? A lot of people out there don’t want to admit that the U.S. economy has been crumbling for a long time. One recent survey discovered that 70 percent of Americans are the most financially stressed that they have ever been in their entire lives. That figure alone tells us that we have a major economic crisis on our hands. The cost of living has been rising much faster than paychecks have been, and most of the country is just barely scraping by from month to month. Anyone that attempts to deny this is simply not living in reality.
