Israel eyes regime change in Iran – and is counting on Trump to make it happen

Amid the din of global speculation over US military build-up in the Middle East, Israel’s leaders have remained unusually silent.

Aside from some remarks in support of Iran’s anti-government protests this month, Israel’s prime minister has had little to say publicly about his superpower ally taking on his biggest enemy. His government has remained equally silent.

“It shows you the importance Netanyahu puts on this moment,” said Danny Citrinowicz, who served for 25 years in Israel’s Defence Intelligence, and is now senior Iran researcher at Israel’s Institute for National Security Studies.

“Indian” man charged in U.S. with smuggling people across the border from Canada

A federal grand jury charged an Indian man with smuggling a dozen people from Canada into the United States.

The U.S. Justice Department says 22-year-old Shivam Lnu allegedly smuggled Indian nationals across the U.S.-Canada border into Clinton County in New York.

Citing court documents, the department alleges the suspect directed and coordinated the human trafficking operation for several months between January and June 2025.

The DOJ says U.S. Border Patrol agents tried to stop two vehicles travelling one behind another near the border on Jan. 26, 2025.

Anti-ICE protesters clash with fed agents outside DTLA federal building

Hundreds of unruly anti-ICE protesters were locked in a hostile standoff with federal agents outside the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building in downtown Los Angeles Friday.

The mob clashed with officials, who pepper-sprayed the group as it attempted to move closer to the building. Most of the mob covered their faces with masks or scarves, some used gas masks. At some point, federal agents appeared to deploy tear gas into the crowd to disperse the agitators.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! LAPD just CHARGED at anti-ICE rioters and unleashed less lethal munitions on the crowd — they were instantly shoved back after laying siege on the federal building

FINALLY local police allowed to do their jobs! 🔥

“Canadian National” Ramanan Pathmanathan Pleads Guilty to Sexually Exploiting Over 100 Children Online

A Canadian national pleaded guilty today in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after admitting he sexually exploited over 100 children by creating an online persona and targeting them on social media.

Ramanan Pathmanathan, 40, of Toronto, Canada, pleaded guilty to the production of child pornography and to coercion and enticement of a minor. Pathmanathan was arrested on Dec. 3, 2025, after being temporarily surrendered to the United States, where he has remained incarcerated pending trial.

Ramanan Pathmanathan: A 40-year-old Toronto man who pleaded guilty in a U.S. court on January 30, 2026, for the sexual exploitation of over 100 children online. He was previously sentenced to 12 years in Canada for similar offenses in 2022 but was released to offend again under Canada’s ludicrous justice system.

To Cave On Mass Deportations Is To Cave On Every Other Issue

On Tuesday afternoon, the White House issued a statement on X outlining a deal with Minnesota officials that drives a knife into the back of everyone who showed up to the polls to deliver President Trump a historic victory in 2024. The post explains that the policy going forward will be to target “criminal illegal aliens,” thereby seemingly abandoning the administration’s promise to conduct mass deportations of as many illegal aliens as possible.

US ‘nuke sniffer’ arrives in UK after Trump threatens Iran

A US air force plane dubbed the “nuke sniffer” has landed in Britain amid growing tensions with the Iranian regime.

The USAF WC-135R Constant Phoenix jet, which is used to detect radioactive particles in the atmosphere, has touched down at RAF Mildenhall, an American airbase in Suffolk.

It comes amid growing speculation that the US is considering striking Iran, following last June’s attacks on the country’s nuclear facilities.

A Secret FBI Bust Nabbed an Alleged Drug Lord—and Rocked Relations With Mexico

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and FBI Director Kash Patel have told differing accounts about the role of U.S. agents in the arrest of former Olympian Ryan Wedding

MEXICO CITY—Ryan Wedding was on the run.

Mexican security forces were closing in on the 44-year-old Canadian—a snowboarder who once competed for Canada in the Olympics but has since landed on America’s most-wanted list for allegedly running a vast cocaine-trafficking network—said Mexican and U.S. officials familiar with the operation.

Long protected by Mexico’s Sinaloa Cartel, Wedding suddenly had no options. By the time security forces caught up with him in Mexico last week, the officials said, members of the FBI’s Hostage

Rescue Team were also involved. Weeks earlier, the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s elite, combat-trained unit participated in the capture of Venezuelan autocrat Nicolás Maduro in his heavily fortified Caracas compound.

Cables show Trump’s moves on Greenland rattled other nations

The Chinese hoped President Donald Trump’s push for Greenland would help them peel Europe away from America. The Finns were desperate to prevent a trade war over the island. And Iceland was furious over a suggestion that it’s next on Trump’s target list — the “52nd state.”

A batch of State Department cables obtained by POLITICO expose the deep reverberations of the president’s demands for Greenland as foreign officials vented their frustrations this month with American counterparts. The messages, which have not been previously reported, offer a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the thinking of allies and adversaries about the impact of Trump’s would-be land grab.

Trump says ‘very dangerous’ for UK, Canada to do business with China as Starmer lands in Shanghai

Donald Trump said it was “very dangerous” for the UK to do business with China, as Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer arrived in Shanghai on the third day of his visit to the country.

…Beyond his brief comments, Trump did not say anything further about the UK’s engagement with China, pivoting instead to Canada and delivering a similar warning.

He said it was “even more dangerous, I think, for Canada”.

“Canada is not doing well. They’re doing very poorly, and you can’t look at China as the answer,” he added.

Washington Pushes Back After EU Fines Musk’s X

Washington has pushed back against Brussels after EU regulators fined Elon Musk’s platform X earlier this month, with U.S. lawmakers warning that the move could set a global precedent for how online speech is policed.

The dispute centres on a €120 million penalty imposed by the European Commission under the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA), a far-reaching law that gives Brussels new powers over the world’s largest online platforms. EU officials say the fine is about transparency and compliance; critics in Washington argue it shows how European regulation can be used to pressure foreign companies far beyond the EU’s borders.

Fighting ICE In The Streets Is Not Demonstrating Jesus’ Love To Anyone

Some of the most vocal antagonists of the Trump administration’s attempts to rein in illegal immigration have come from men and women of the cloth. Last Friday, about 100 clergy members protesting deportation flights were arrested during a peaceful sit-in at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. Episcopal bishops in New Hampshire and Minnesota recently exhorted their flocks to be prepared even for death in order to protect vulnerable illegal immigrants.

Message to Mark Carney: Europe without America doesn’t work

Mark Carney, the former Governor of the Bank of England and now Canadian prime minister, was the toast of Davos last week for a speech that seemed to perfectly capture the moment with its talk of a “permanent rupture” and its supposed master plan for responding to the “Trumpquake” in global affairs.

But how realistic was his vision of a coalition of “middle powers” – by which he seemed to mean mainly Canada, Europe, the UK and Japan – to keep the torch of the old liberal order burning bright?

"PM Carney’s Davos speech may go down in history as one of the most poorly interpreted by Canadians. Many central bankers openly disagreed with both the language and the message, but the backlash barely surfaced in Canadian media. Meanwhile, the speech has clearly made many… pic.twitter.com/krCyHwtxx3

Starmer would be a fool to follow Carney in embracing Beijing

Sir Keir Starmer recently tried to take credit for his role in Donald Trump’s partial climbdown on tariffs relating to Greenland. Whether he played any meaningful part is debatable.

What is beyond doubt, however, is that Donald Trump will happily reach for the tariff weapon again whenever it suits him. Even against long-standing allies, and especially against those he believes are acting against US interests.

Just look at Canada and the increasingly heated rivalry between Trump and the country’s prime minister, Mark Carney. The president last week threatened eye-watering tariffs of 100pc on all goods and services entering the US.
