State Deptartment Trashes U.N. Migration Pact, Promises ‘Remigration’

Marco Rubio’s Department of State is trashing a globalized pro-migration scheme by the United Nations, and is promising to help migrants’ remigration back home.

Marco Rubio just reset Third World migration, and Europe gave him a standing ovation…

“The United States objects to the Global Compact on Migration and U.N. efforts to facilitate replacement migration to the United States and our Western allies,” said a May 11 tweet from the Department of State, adding:

For the citizens of Western nations, mass migration was never safe. It introduced new security threats, imposed financial strains, and undermined the cohesion of our societies… Under President Trump, the State Department will facilitate remigration — not replacement migration.

The rejection of mass migration is a big shift from President Joe Biden’s term, when his deputies carefully and covertly worked with the U.N. Together, they moved almost 10 million culturally distant migrants into Americans’ neighborhoods, workplaces, aid programs, schools, hospitals, jails, and politics.

Biden’s elite-backed displacement migration killed many migrants and many Americans, flatlined the economy, and prompted Americans to elect Trump on a mandate to deport millions of migrants from their nation and society.

Trump on Iran’s nuclear stash: “If anybody got near the place, we will know about it, and we’ll blow them up”

Iran replies to US proposal to end war, Trump finds response ‘unacceptable’

Iran had a chance to move toward peace. Instead, Tehran tried to turn Trump’s proposal into a payoff.

Trump says US will not allow Iran to reach enriched uranium

US president says Washington has the nuclear material in Iran ‘surveilled’ and will ‘blow up’ anyone who gets near it.

President Donald Trump has warned that the United States will target any Iranian trying to reach the country’s highly enriched uranium, saying that the nuclear material is under constant surveillance by the US military.

In an interview with the syndicated TV show Full Measure that aired on Sunday, Trump appeared to play down the significance of the uranium, which is believed to be buried under the rubble of nuclear facilities, remaining in Iran for now.

“We’ll get that at some point, whenever we want. We have it surveilled,” Trump said.

“I did a thing called Space Force, and they are watching. If somebody walked in, they can tell you his name, his address, the number of his badge … If anybody got near the place, we will know about it, and we’ll blow them up.” Continue reading Trump on Iran’s nuclear stash: “If anybody got near the place, we will know about it, and we’ll blow them up”

Israel destroys Yemeni international airport following attack on Ben Gurion

Iran huffs & puffs:

Iran warned European countries not to join the United States and Israel in the war against Tehran, saying any government that participates in the campaign could face retaliation.

Update:

Several foreign airlines such as Germany’s national carrier Lufthansa have suspended flights to Tel Aviv following the Houthi air strike that hit the Ben Gurion International Airport.

Update:

Israeli warplanes strike Sana’a International Airport in Yemen’s Houthi-occupied capital city, destroying the passenger hall and other buildings, and bombs power station days after a Houthi missile exploded outside Israel’s largest airport.

By David Rosenberg, World Israel News

Israeli warplanes on Tuesday afternoon bombed multiple targets in the Yemeni capital city of Sana’a, days after pro-Iranian rebel forces in Yemen launched a missile that exploded next to Israel’s largest air travel hub.

According to preliminary reports, IDF fighter jets struck the Dhaban power station, just outside of Sana’a, along a power distribution facility and a cement factory.

In addition, Israeli warplanes hit the Sana’a International Airport.

Multiple aircraft were destroyed in the strike, and the passenger hall and flight service areas were also hit.

At least two dozen hits have been reported in the Israeli airstrikes.

The attacks came shortly after the Israeli military warned Yemen of an impending attack on the Sana’a International Airport, calling for its evacuation.

IDF Col. Avichay Adraee, the Israeli military’s chief Arabic spokesperson, issued an “urgent warning to everyone in the vicinity of Sanaa International Airport: We urge you to evacuate the airport area immediately and to warn others nearby to do the same. Failure to do so endangers your lives.”

Israel bombs Beirut’s southern suburb as it targets Hezbollah commander

It was the first attack on Beirut’s southern suburbs since a truce in the Israel-Hezbollah war went into force on April 17.

Lebanon

Israeli forces have bombed Beirut’s southern suburbs and claim to have assassinated eliminated Malek Balou, a commander of Hezbollah’s Radwan Force.

“Israeli warplanes launched an attack, targeting Ghobeiri” in the southern suburbs, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported, as a loud explosion and extensive damage were reported from the area.

The Israel Defense Forces identified the target as Malek Balou, a commander in the group’s elite special operations unit.

 AFP:  “Malek Ballout, the operations commander in the Radwan Force,” was killed in the Israeli strike.

This action follows a series of Israeli operations against Hezbollah leadership earlier in 2026. In April, Israeli forces killed Haj Youssef Ismail Hashem, commander of Hezbollah’s Southern Front, in a naval strike on Beirut. Other strikes targeted intelligence officials and aides close to Hezbollah’s senior leadership.

  • Israel bombed Beirut in an expansion of attacks on Lebanon and in the first strike on the Lebanese capital since a “ceasefire”, in name only, came into force on April 17.
  • Israeli forces have consistently violated the ceasefire with retaliated and on Wednesday killed at least 13 people in attacks across the country, including claiming to have targeted eliminating a senior Hezbollah commander in a strike on Beirut.

“The IDF has just struck in Beirut the commander of the Radwan Force in the Hezbollah terror organization to eliminate him.”

  • Hamas has condemned Israel’s attacks on Gaza, calling the daily bombings and growing death toll a “blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement” and a continuation of Israel’s “war of extermination” in the Palestinian territory.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed the attack, saying he and Defence Minister Israel Katz had instructed the army to carry out the attack.

“Radwan terrorists are responsible for shooting at Israeli settlements and harming [Israeli army] soldiers. No terrorist has immunity – Israel’s long hand will catch every enemy and murderer,” Netanyahu said in a post on Telegram.

World Starts To “Build” Around Hormuz

Gold Jumps, Dollar Dumps As AMD & Imminent Iran Deal Lift Stocks & Bonds, Sink Oil

US crude oil futures rose by approximately $1 in early Thursday trading as investors weighed the prospects of a potential peace deal in the US-Israel war on Iran.

German shipping company Hapag-Lloyd says the closure of the Strait of Hormuz is costing it about $60m per week in fuel and insurance costs, as it remains too risky to send its vessels through the strategic waterway, AFP reports.

World Starts To “Build” Around Hormuz; Japan Buying UAE Oil Bypassing Strait As ADNOC To Spend $55 Billion On Pipelines

“Iran’s mistake is that once Hormuz becomes structurally unreliable, the world builds around it…“

Long after the Iran war is just a bookmark in the history books, one distinct consequence will persist: much of the world, at least the part that does not fall under the Chinese sphere of influence, will do everything it can to avoid the Strait of Hormuz and failing that, have a Plan B. Just like when the Biden admin weaponized the US Dollar in 2022 by booting Russia from SWIFT after the Ukraine war, and in the process started the biggest gold and bitcoin rally in history as the rest of the world parked its savings in non-USD assets, so the world’s most important oil choke point will never again be viewed again in the same way after Iran launched dozens of rockets at the ships transiting it. 

This shift in perception is what James Thorne, chief market strategist of WellingtonAltus, called “Iran’s Historic Mistake“; he explains it as follows: 

By weaponizing the Strait of Hormuz, Iran committed a strategic blunder of historic proportions. Tehran meant to punish America. Instead, it exposed every power built on imported energy, vulnerable sea lanes, and the delusion that globalization repealed geography. China is exposed. Europe is exposed. Britain is exposed. Iran has created a world where hard resource power decides outcomes.

And the punchline:

Iran’s mistake is that once Hormuz becomes structurally unreliable, the world builds around it. That means bypass corridors, revived pipeline politics, and urgent planning for routes linking Aqaba to Mediterranean outlets near Gaza and the long-stalled Basra-to-Aqaba pipeline. The old energy order is cracking. The UAE’s OPEC exit signals cartel discipline giving way to national advantage under pressure.

Obama claims that Trump’s return to the White House demands that he stay on the front lines and fight

The hide & the hubris of this clown is off the charts.

Trump Ballroom $400 million: no tax payer dollars used.

Obama Library: over $650 million in tax payer dollars used and it is still not finished. So why does anyone even care? Because liberal media told them to care….

Democrats are puppets of liberal media. The Biden library is only accessible online.

The remarkable thing about the Obama presidential library is that it contains neither books nor documents from the Obama administration. None. Just a brutalist, forbidding architectural monument to the self-absorbed chief executive between Bush II and Trump. Plus gift shop.

Trump threatens: Iran will be “blown off the face of the earth”

The Iranians are saying that the Americans have attacked civilian boats and killed five civilians.

They are denying that the boats that the Americans claim to have hit belong to Iran’s IRGC. Rather, they are saying they were civilian boats.

Air defences in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have intercepted missiles and incoming drone attacks from Iran.

The UAE Ministry of Defence said late on Monday afternoon that it was intercepting ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and drones across the country. It later reported that three missiles had been intercepted, with a fourth falling into the sea.

The strikes came as tension in the Gulf increased, with efforts to extend the ceasefire in the United States-Israeli war on Iran having failed to make a breakthrough, and rhetoric remaining elevated on both sides as they face off regarding the blockades in the Strait of Hormuz.

A senior Iranian military official said later on state TV that “Iran had no plans to target the UAE”.

Trump: when we needed them, they were not there

So now the pullout begins.

It will hurt Germany. They have leached off our servicemen spending their paychecks in Germany not to mention the German businesses that service our troops. It has always been about the money for Germany. Ironically it was Germany that sanctioned and encouraged the Islamic invasion of Europe and the destruction of their culture.

Trump Delivers Wake-Up Call to Freeloading Europe as German Chancellor Backpedals on Insults

President Donald Trump is done subsidizing ungrateful allies who badmouth America while hiding behind U.S. troops. After German Chancellor Friedrich Merz slammed the U.S. for getting humiliated by Iran and lacking strategy in the conflict, Trump hit back hard.
 
The Pentagon confirmed the withdrawal of 5,000 troops from Germany, with the president signaling even deeper cuts ahead.
 
Trump made it crystal clear to reporters: We’re going to cut way down, and we’re cutting a lot further than 5,000. Other European nations could feel the pinch too. This is America First in action, ending the era where the U.S. foots the bill for NATO deadbeats who offer lectures instead of support.
 
Merz, facing the reality of lost American protection, is now singing a different tune. In a Fox News interview, he pleaded, I am not giving up on working on the transatlantic relationship. Nor am I giving up on working with Donald Trump. He downplayed any direct link between his criticism and the troop pullout while stressing shared goals against Iranian nukes. Too late, the damage from calling out America was done.
