King of Jordan Tells Trump He Will Take In 2,000 Sick Gaza Children

King Abdullah II of Jordan told President Trump at the White House on Tuesday that his country would give refuge to 2,000 children from Gaza who are sick with cancer or other illnesses.

During a meeting with Trump on Tuesday, the king said to “keep in mind that there is a plan from Egypt” and other Arab countries, and that they had to look out for the best interests of the people of the United States, Jordan, and the Middle East.

“One of the things that we can do right away is take 2,000 children that are either cancer children or in very ill-state to Jordan as quickly as possible,” the Jordanian king said. “And, then wait for the Egyptians to present their plan on how we can work with president.”

In response to the king’s announcement, Trump described it as a “beautiful gesture.”

The king’s offer to take in 2,000 sick children from the Gaza Strip comes as the Egyptian and Jordanian governments have previously rejected taking in displaced refugees from Gaza. (Read more from “King of Jordan Tells Trump He Will Take In 2,000 Sick Gaza Children” HERE)

Hamas Makes an Announcement About the Freedom of Future Hostages (VIDEO)

Iranian backed terrorist organization Hamas announced Monday it will not comply with the next stage of a previously negotiated hostage deal, falsely claiming “Israeli violations” as the reason for the decision. The deal Hamas agreed to requires the release of three more hostages this week, which now isn’t happening.

The move comes less than 24 hours after President Donald Trump said he was “losing patience” with the terrorist group and that the condition of hostages Eli Sharabi, Ohad Ben Ami and Or Levy, who were released Saturday, was unacceptable.

Just Wait Until You Hear How Hamas Responded to Trump’s Gaza Plans

Hamas reportedly thinks President Donald Trump’s plan to have the United States government take over the Gaza Strip is “irresponsible.”

The terrorist group released a statement on Wednesday condemning Trump’s announcement of the plan as “hostile to our people and our cause”. It said they “will not serve stability in the region, and will only add fuel to the fire,” according to Iran-owned Press TV.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have been engaged in an effort to eliminate the terrorist group in the region since Hamas murdered 1,200 Israelis on October 7, 2023. Since then, the two parties have clashed in Gaza amid efforts to iron out a ceasefire deal.

Hamas further declared that it “will not allow any country in the world to occupy our land or impose guardianship over our great Palestinian people.”

Abdul Latif al-Qanoua, a spokesperson for the terrorist group, referred to Trump’s plan as a “failed attempt to eliminate the Palestinian cause.” (Read more from “Just Wait Until You Hear How Hamas Responded to Trump’s Gaza Plans” HERE)

LGBTQ Group’s Drag Show In Ecuador Funded by the United States

An LGBTQ group in Ecuador tapped into a $25,000 grant from the Biden State Department to produce a two-day drag workshop intended to promote diversity and inclusion abroad.

Footage obtained by The Post showed drag queens donning makeup, strutting around topless wearing nothing but pasties and crowing about how the displays could be used as a “political tool.”

Fundacion Dialogo Diverso, a nongovernmental organization that aims to promote democracy and the “LGBTIQ+ population” of the South American country, organized the drag show and published footage of it last July.

The State Department footed some of the bill for the show through its Bureau of Population Refugees and Migration, for which the nonprofit thanked the department.

“Funds provided by the US government,” a disclaimer at the end of the video read near an American flag, per a translation. (Read more from “LGBTQ Group’s Drag Show In Ecuador Funded by the United States” HERE)

Canada Caves: Trudeau Submits to Trump, Announces 30-Day Pause on Tariffs

By Breitbart. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has caved to President Donald Trump’s demands to crack down on fentanyl trafficking and to reinforce the Canada-U.S. border after threatening retaliatory tariffs in response to Trump’s.

“I just had a good call with President Trump,” Trudeau announced in a Monday X post, shortly after 4:30 p.m.:

“Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan — reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl,” said Trudeau, who announced his intention to resign as prime minister and as leader of the Liberal Party last month.

He continued in his post to declare that nearly 10,000 frontline personnel “are and will be working on protecting the border,” and announced a new commitment to “appoint a Fentanyl Czar.”

In his country’s fight against drug trafficking, Trudeau added that cartels will be designated “as terrorists,” the border will be under “24/7” watch, and a Canada-U.S. Joint Strike Force will be launched to “combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering.” (Read more from “Canada Caves: Trudeau Submits to Trump, Announces 30-Day Pause on Tariffs” HERE)

Trump Agrees to Pause Tariffs on Canada and Mexico but Not on China

By BBC. President Donald Trump has agreed to hold off imposing 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico for 30 days, pulling the North American neighbours back from the brink of a potentially damaging trade war.

After last-minute calls with Trump, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau agreed to reinforce his country’s border with the US to clamp down on migration and the flow of the deadly drug fentanyl.

Earlier, Trump made a deal with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. She agreed to reinforce the northern border with troops. In return the US would limit the flow of guns into Mexico.

But a US tariff of 10% on Chinese imports has come into effect, after a deadline of 00:01 EST (05:00 GMT) on Tuesday passed.

Shortly after, Beijing announced it was imposing retaliatory tariffs on a raft of American products, including 15% on coal and liquefied natural gas and 10% on crude oil and agricultural machinery. (Read more from “Trump Agrees to Pause Tariffs on Canada and Mexico but Not on China” HERE)

Mexican Cartel Chiefs Order Members to Target U.S. Border Patrol With Drones, Explosives

Mexican drug cartels are ordering their members to target U.S. Border Patrol agents with kamikaze drones and other explosives amid a crackdown at the southern border by the Trump administration.

An internal memo titled “Officer Safety Alert” cited social media posts and other sources for the warning to federal agents, the New York Post reported. Agents were reminded to be “cognizant of their surroundings” and should be wearing their ballistic armor and utilizing their long firearms.

“On February 1, 2025, the El Paso Sector Intelligence and Operations Center (EPT-IOC) received information advising that Mexican cartel leaders have authorized the deployment of drones equipped with explosives to be used against US Border Patrol agents and US military personnel currently working along the border with Mexico,” the memo, obtained by the newspaper, states.

“It is recommended that all US Border Patrol agents and DoD personnel working along the border report any sighting of drones to their respective leadership staff and the EPT-IOC,” it said.

Fox News Digital has reached out to the U.S. Border Patrol, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). (Read more from “Mexican Cartel Chiefs Order Members to Target U.S. Border Patrol With Drones, Explosives” HERE)

Report: Former Mexican Consulate Lawyer Coaches Illegals to Lie to ICE

The Mexican consulate in Tucson, Arizona, is working with a leftist group that facilitates illegal immigration, according to an investigation by The Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project.

“These are hotbeds of radical activity,” Mike Howell, executive director of the Oversight Project, said to The Federalist. “They’re doing everything to coach these illegals to evade arrest. … It’s foreign interference through our domestic policies when you have the Mexican consulate involved.”

Mayra De La Torre — a former lawyer for the consulate — told illegals to lie to law enforcement about working in America in a video the Oversight Project published on Monday. The undercover footage exposed a seminar for illegals at Tucson’s Southside Worker Center, a non-governmental organization “building collective power” that hires out workers.

“You can make things up. ‘We’re not working, we’re volunteering here, this person is just helping,’” De La Torre said in the video. “What if they ask, ‘What about the $200?’” someone in the audience asked. “Say, ‘It’s a gift for my good work, for being a volunteer,’” De La Torre replied.

Howell said he is unsure how much time has passed since De La Torre stopped working for the Mexican consulate in her official capacity, or whether she is still working for it in an “unofficial capacity.” (Read more from “Report: Former Mexican Consulate Lawyer Coaches Illegals to Lie to ICE” HERE)

American Israeli Hostage on List to Be Released

After 16 months in captivity, Israeli American hostage Keith Siegel is slated to be released Saturday.

Siegel is 65 and from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, but moved to Israel decades ago. On Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas took Siegel and his wife Aviva Siegel from their home in Kibbutz Kfar Aza and drove them in their own vehicle into Gaza. Siegel was shot in the hand and his ribs were broken when he was taken captive.

For 51 days, Aviva Siegel was held in Hamas tunnels with her husband until she was released in November 2023 during a brief ceasefire between Hamas and Israel.

“You be strong for me, and I’ll be strong for you,” Aviva Siegel, 63, recalls saying to her husband when she parted from him in the tunnels beneath Gaza. Since her release, Aviva Siegel has dedicated her time and energy to advocating for her husband’s freedom, and the freedom of all the hostages.

“My heart will explode,” Aviva Siegel told The Daily Signal during an interview in December when asked about her hope for her husband’s release. “I will scream. I will jump into the air, and it’s just going to be … I don’t know, I’ll dance. I’m sure that I’ll dance and scream.” (Read more from “American Israeli Hostage on List to Be Released” HERE)

Government-Run Healthcare Disaster: 75,000 Dead Because They Were Stuck on Waitlists for Surgeries or Diagnoses

Some 75,000 people have died over the past few years because they were on waitlists for surgeries or diagnoses, according to a new report.

The report at ZeroHedge said the death count for just 2023-24 was 15,000 Canadians, as patients there “waited years for treatment they never received” or those who “turned to euthanasia due to lack of timely care.” . . .

Canada is one of the nations with a socialized medical program, where treatment is supposed to be free, but in reality it’s turned out the treatment often is rare, or even unobtainable, as the record shows physicians have offered their patients euthanasia instead of treatment. . .

“SecondStreet.org collected the data by filing Freedom of Information (FOI) requests across Canada. When the data collected is extrapolated across jurisdictions which did not provide data, the number actually nearly doubles, to around 28,077. These figures cover everything from cancer treatment and heart operations to cataract surgery and MRI scans,” the report explained.

Harrison Fleming, an official with SecondStreet, said, “Canadians pay really high taxes and yet our health care system is failing when compared to better-performing universal systems in Europe. Thousands of Canadians across the country find themselves on waitlists — in some cases for several years -— with too many tragically dying before ever getting treated, or even diagnosed.” (Read more from “75,000 Dead Because They Were Stuck on Waitlists for Surgeries or Diagnoses” HERE)

Trump Announces Immediate Retaliation Against Colombia After Socialist President Turns Back U.S. Deportation Flights; Colombia’s President Buckles

By New York Post. President Trump vowed to launch a trade war with Colombia and impose an “emergency 25% tariff” on Sunday after the South American country turned back two US military deportation flights.

“I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States, with a large number of Illegal Criminals, were not allowed to land in Colombia,” Trump wrote Sunday.

“This order was given by Colombia’s Socialist President Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his people,” he said, adding that Petro’s decision has “jeopardized the National Security and Public Safety of the United States.”

In response, Trump said he would enact the “emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States” — and claimed he’d raise it to 50% in a week.

He also called for a travel ban, visa revocations on Colombian government officials, visa sanctions on party members and government supporters, enhanced customs and border protection inspections of any Colombian national and banking and financial sanctions.

Colombia’s President Buckles Under Trump’s Trade War Threat — Offers Presidential Plane for Deportation Flights

By New York Post. Colombian President Gustavo Petro quickly reversed course about accepting flights of deported migrants from the US after President Donald Trump threatened emergency tariffs of up to 50% on the South American country for refusing to cooperate.

Petro not only acquiesced to Trump’s demands, he even offered up the official Colombian presidential plane to help shuttle migrants back to the country, calling it a response to “the Government’s commitment to guarantee decent conditions.”

“The Government of Colombia, under the direction of President Gustavo Petro, has arranged the presidential plane to facilitate the dignified return of the compatriots who were going to arrive in the country today in the morning, coming from deportation flights,” a translated official statement read in part.

The short-lived battle of wills between the world leaders kicked off this weekend when the US sent a pair of military flights loaded with deported Colombian migrants as part of the Trump administration’s pledge to crack down on illegal aliens.

A defiant Petro initially refused entry of the Colombian migrants from the US, and insisted the US cannot treat those being deported as “criminals.” (Read more from “Colombia’s President Buckles Under Trump’s Trade War Threat — Offers Presidential Plane for Deportation Flights” HERE)
