Israeli Airstrike Hits Building Near Iranian Embassy.

On Tuesday, an Israeli airstrike targeted a residential structure near Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, close to the Iranian Embassy. The airstrike resulted in significant damage to the building and caused windows in the surrounding area to shatter.

The incident occurred on the southern route leading to Beirut’s international airport, impacting an apartment within the building. The Iranian Embassy is approximately 100 meters from the point of impact.

Authorities have yet to disclose the extent of any potential casualties or injuries resulting from the strike. The Lebanese government has not issued an immediate response on the matter.

This airstrike marks the latest development in heightened tensions between Israel, Lebanon-based Hezbollah, and its backers in Iran over recent months. The Israelis killed Hezbollah’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, in a strike on Beirut on Friday and plan to launch a limited ground invasion of Lebanon to root out Hezbollah militants near their northern border.

Trump Warns Iran Ceasefire on ‘Life Support’ After ‘Garbage’ Response to Peace Offer.

President Donald J. Trump describes the ceasefire with Iran as “unbelievably weak” following Iran’s “garbage” response to a U.S. peace proposal on Sunday.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump criticized Iran’s response to a U.S. peace offer on Sunday, telling the press the ceasefire is now “unbelievably weak” at an Oval Office event on maternal healthcare on Monday.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “I would say the ceasefire is on massive life support, where the doctor walks in and says, ‘Sir, your loved one has an approximately one percent chance of living.'” – President Donald J. Trump
🎯 IMPACT: Asked if the ceasefire with Iran was still in effect following the Iranian response, which he previously characterized as “totally unacceptable,” the President said, “I would call it the weakest right now, after reading that piece of garbage they sent us.” He said that he did not even read the Iranian response in full, as it quicky became apparent that it was a waste of his time. Reports suggest the Iranians requested reparations, formalized control over the Strait of Hormuz, where they have choked off much of the world’s supply of energy and ferilizer, and the lifting of sanctions on their regime.
📰 DETAIL: Trump noted that there are internal divisions in Iran, explaining that there are “moderates” who are “dying” to make a deal, but also “lunatics” who want to fight to the finish, adding that the moderates appear to be “a little afraid” of the lunatics. He also criticized the Kurds, mooted by some as a potential ground force in Iran, saying they want to “take, take, take” without helping to arm or support Iranian dissidents, and that he was not surprised that sending them some arms failed to produce results.

Regulator Probes TV Channel for Not Being Hostile Enough to Donald Trump.

Britain’s media regulator is scrutinizing a GB News interview with President Donald J. Trump for supposed breaches of impartiality, suggesting that the interviewer was not sufficiently critical of the U.S. President.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Ofcom, the British government media and communications regulator, has announced it will investigate a GB News interview with President Donald J. Trump, aired in November 2025, for potential breaches of rules on due impartiality and material misleadingness. The interview, conducted by GB News presenter Bev Turner, included claims by Trump about climate change and law enforcement in London, including references to “no-go areas.”
📺 DETAIL: The regulator had initially defended the broadcast earlier this year by saying opposing viewpoints were presented in surrounding panel discussions, but pressure from leftist campaign groups prompted a reassessment. Former Ofcom standards chief Chris Banatvala and climate change activists were among those who said the interview breached British broadcasting standards. GB News has faced repeated scrutiny from Ofcom in recent years over alleged breaches involving coverage of populist figures such as Trump and Reform Party leader Nigel Farage. The interview investigation marks another escalation in the ongoing clash between Britain’s media regulator and the right-leaning broadcaster over the boundaries of political journalism and free expression. 
💬 KEY QUOTE: “This [program] featured an interview by GB News presenter, Bev Turner, with U.S. President Donald Trump. We are investigating whether it breached our rules on due impartiality and material misleadingness.” – Ofcom spokesman.
🎯 IMPACT: Ofcom has repeatedly harassed GB News for alleged code breaches, while left-wing bias at established broadcasters such as BBC News and Sky News has gone unpunished. Responding to the investigation, GB News said in a statement, “GB News is surprised and concerned by Ofcom’s delayed decision to investigate in circumstances where it had already published an ‘assessed, not pursued’ finding in relation to the original broadcast of the interview and issued a public statement explaining why the original [program] complied with the Broadcasting Code. Ofcom’s U-turn over the repeat of the interview with U.S. President, Donald Trump, follows adverse commentary around its original decision by prominent critics of both Ofcom and GB News. The sequence of events inevitably raises questions around the rationale for reopening the matter at this stage. It also raises serious concerns around regulatory certainty, procedural fairness, and the consistency of Ofcom’s processes.” Notably, Bev Turner has previously complained that she and GB News faced punitive action, including from Ofcom, for commentary and coverage expressing skepticism of COVID-19 vaccines. Ofcom has also been involved in attempts to censor dissident voices online and even threatened to block X (formerly Twitter) over complaints about its AI chatbot Grok.

Terror-Linked Migrant Escapes Deportation.

An Algerian migrant convicted of supporting terrorism has avoided deportation from Britain after a court ruled she faced a severe risk of torture in her home country.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: An Algerian woman, identified only as KB, who was convicted in 2020 for distributing extremist material and associated with known terrorists, has avoided deportation from Britain. The Immigration and Asylum Chamber of the Upper Tribunal superior court ruled that she faced a severe risk of torture if returned to Algeria, dismissing an appeal by the Home Office—roughly equivalent to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
📺 DETAIL: The woman, who entered Britain illegally in 2002 and was sentenced to two years in prison on terrorism-related charges, was described in court documents as having displayed an “extremist mindset.” The Upper Tribunal dismissed the Home Office’s appeal to authorize her deportation, allowing her to remain in the country on human rights grounds. The Home Office said it was disappointed with the decision and said it would pursue a further appeal, adding that foreign criminals should not be allowed to exploit human rights laws to avoid removal.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “We will not allow foreign criminals to exploit our laws,” the Home Office claimed in a statement.
🎯 IMPACT: The ruling has reignited debates over Britain’s immigration and deportation system, with critics arguing that it prioritizes foreign criminals over public safety and national security. This case is just the latest of many to see a foreign criminal allowed to remain in Britain over alleged human rights concerns.
📺 FLASHBACK: The decision follows years of increasing illegal Channel crossings by boat migrants, with over 200,000 arriving since 2018, further straining the UK’s immigration system.

UK PM Starmer Moves to Nationalize China-Owned British Steel.

The British government’s decision to nationalize British Steel underscores the industry’s long-standing financial problems and Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s left turn following heavy losses in recent elections.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Sir Keir Starmer, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, has announced that the British government will introduce legislation to fully nationalize British Steel.
📺 DETAIL: Last year, the British government took control of Scunthorpe Steelworks, a mill in north Lincolnshire, England, and the last plant in the United Kingdom capable of producing virgin steel. Originally controlled by Jingye, a Chinese steelmaker, the plant has faced significant financial struggles in recent years, culminating in plans to shut down the mill’s blast furnaces. The plant has posted large daily losses, with the British government reportedly spending £1 million per day (~$1.4m) to maintain operations since the takeover. According to the National Audit Office, the government’s interim management of the mill has cost £377 million (~$514m). After failing to secure a commercial sale of the steelworks from its Chinese owner, British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer announced that the government would propose legislation to fully nationalize British Steel on Monday.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Maintaining domestic production capability for British Steel’s products is essential not only for economic growth but also for our national security and resilience.” – Gareth Stace, Director-General of UK Steel.
🎯 IMPACT: The incoming legislation aims to protect 2,700 jobs at British Steel as well as the domestic production of virgin steel made directly from iron ore rather than recycled scraps. Virgin steel is essential for building major infrastructure projects, specialized machinery, and defense technology, among other things. The cost of nationalization remains unclear. The move comes amid a left turn from Prime Minister Starmer following catastrophic results for his Labour Party during last week’s elections across England, Wales, and Scotland, which have left his premiership in jeopardy.

Trump White House Correspondents’ Dinner Shooter Pleads Not Guilty.

A California man charged with attempting to assassinate President Trump during an April event in D.C. has pleaded not guilty, as prosecutors prepare to release evidence in the high-profile case.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Cole Tomas Allen, 31, was arraigned in federal court after being charged with attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump during a White House Correspondents’ Dinner event on April 25. Allen pleaded not guilty to four charges, including attempting to assassinate the president and shooting a Secret Service officer.
📺 DETAIL: Allen, a California teacher and engineer, allegedly bypassed a security checkpoint near the Washington Hilton Hotel armed with firearms, knives, and ammunition. He engaged in a shootout with a Secret Service officer, who was injured but recovered. The incident prompted the immediate evacuation of President Trump and other officials. Allen had reportedly sent his family a note criticizing the administration and indicating his intentions prior to the attack.
🎯 IMPACT: The case has raised questions about security protocols at high-profile events and the motivations behind the attack, with Allen’s writings suggesting a personal vendetta against administration officials. His legal team has signaled plans to challenge the involvement of U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro in the case, citing bias.
📺 FLASHBACK: Allen’s actions follow a history of politically motivated incidents targeting U.S. leaders, underscoring ongoing security challenges for public officials.
📈 DATA: Records show Allen had legally purchased firearms in 2023 and 2025, and his sister revealed he had trained at shooting ranges while expressing radical ideas.

Trump Dismisses Iran’s Reply to Peace Plan as ‘Totally Unacceptable.’

President Donald J. Trump criticized Iran’s demands in response to a U.S.-backed proposal aimed at ending the Iran war on Sunday.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump announced on May 10 that he plans to reject Iran’s response to a U.S.-backed proposal aimed at ending the Iran war, branding Tehran’s demands “totally unacceptable.” Prior to the President’s statement, the Trump administration and the Islamic Republic had reportedly been close to finalizing a one-page memorandum bringing the conflict to a close.
📺 DETAIL: Iranian state media reported that Tehran’s response on Sunday to a U.S. peace proposal included demands for the removal of U.S. sanctions, easing restrictions on oil sales, and an end to the American naval blockade of Iranian ports—a response to the Islamic Republic’s effective blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint for much of the world’s energy and fertilizer trade. Iran is also said to have pushed for increased Iranian control over the strait. Trump expressed dissatisfaction with Iran’s letter in a May 10 phone call, calling it “inappropriate,” and following up with an even stronger rejection on his Truth Social platform.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “I have just read the response from Iran’s so-called ‘Representatives.’ I don’t like it — TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! Thank you for your attention to this matter. ” – President Donald Trump, speaking to Axios.
🎯 IMPACT: The rejection of Iran’s demands raises questions about the future of the tenuous ceasefire in the Middle East and U.S.-Iran negotiations, with concerns over whether diplomatic efforts will continue or if military action will resume at scale.

HARD LEFT TURN: After Postponing Elections and Refusing to Resign, Britain’s PM is Now Nationalizing Industry and Trying to Overturn the Brexit Vote.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer delivers a speech addressing Labour’s electoral losses and outlining plans for a stronger relationship with the EU and domestic reforms.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer delivered a 20-minute-long speech in London attempting to salvage his premiership against the backdrop of mega loses to Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party this past week. Sir Keir addresses the electoral losses across England, Scotland, and Wales, vowing to take responsibility for the results, while attacking Farage as “dangerous” and setting Britain back on a course to rejoining the European Union (EU).
📺 DETAIL: Starmer outlined plans to strengthen the UK’s relationship with the EU, proposing a youth exchange program and highlighting the importance of a “reset” in European relations. Domestically, he pledged to nationalize British Steel and block what he described as “far-right agitators” from entering the UK for an upcoming march led by Tommy Robinson.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “’I want to remind you what Nigel Farage said about Brexit. He said it would make us richer. Wrong. It made us poorer. He said it would reduce migration. Wrong. Migration went through the roof. He said it would make us more secure. Wrong again. He just fled the scene and now he will talk about almost anything other the consequences of what they delivered. He is not just a grifter, he’s a chancer.”
🎯 IMPACT: Starmer’s speech is a critical moment in shoring up his leadership amid growing internal party criticism and public doubts. His focus on European ties and domestic reforms highlights a strategic shift to rebuild support and address national challenges, though tacking to the far-left is likely more a ploy to recapture drifting Labour Party voters more captivated by Zack Polanski’s far-left Green movement than actually speaking to middle Britain.

Prosecutors Seek Death Penalty for Haitian Hammer Killer.

Rolbert Joachin, a Haitian national accused of murdering a Florida gas station clerk with a hammer, may face execution after prosecutors announced they will seek capital punishment in the case.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Florida prosecutors have announced they will seek the death penalty against Rolbert Joachin, a Haitian national accused of murdering gas station clerk Nilufa Easmin with a hammer in Fort Myers on April 2. The attack, described as “incredibly violent,” was captured on video and occurred after Joachin allegedly smashed the windshield of the victim’s car.
📺 DETAIL: Surveillance footage reportedly showed the suspect repeatedly striking the victim in the head before fleeing the scene, prompting a citywide manhunt that ended with his arrest. Lee County State Attorney Amira Fox described the killing as “extremely brutal” and said the severity of the crime justified pursuing capital punishment. Federal officials said Joachin entered the United States in 2022 and was later granted Temporary Protected Status despite a removal order, drawing criticism from immigration enforcement advocates and political leaders. The case comes after President Donald J. Trump approved the use of firing squads in federal death penalty cases, with Florida officials stating they were also open to using firing squads. Republican Governor Ron DeSantis passed legislation last July stating that any form of execution was permissible in Florida as long as it was not deemed unconstitutional.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “This crime was so violent, so extreme, so unwarranted… It is something that—once seen—is never to be forgotten.” – State Attorney Amira Fox
🎯 IMPACT: The case has reignited national debates over immigration enforcement, with President Donald J. Trump criticizing the former Biden regime for allowing Joachin to remain in the U.S.

U.S. Moves to Revoke Citizenship of Diplomat Who Spied for Cuba.

Federal prosecutors are moving to revoke the U.S. citizenship of Manuel Rocha, a former U.S. ambassador who admitted to spying for communist Cuba.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Federal prosecutors have moved to denaturalize Manuel Rocha, a former U.S. ambassador who admitted to working as a spy for communist Cuba for decades.
📺 DETAIL: Rocha began working with Cuban intelligence in 1973, five years before applying for U.S. citizenship. He held several prominent posts in the State Department, including U.S. ambassador to Bolivia. Prosecutors allege he lied about his allegiance to the U.S. Constitution. The 75-year-old Rocha was sentenced to 15 years in prison in 2023 after admitting to spying on behalf of communist Cuba. Rocha was secretly recorded praising Fidel Castro as “El Comandante” (Spanish for “The Commander”) and bragging about his infiltration of the U.S. government. He celebrated his espionage work as “more than a grand slam” against the American “enemy.” Consequently, on Thursday, the office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Southern Florida in Miami filed a civil denaturalization complaint.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “This civil denaturalization case is about finishing the job.” – Jason A. Reding Quiñones, U.S. Attorney for the District of Southern Florida.
🎯 IMPACT: If successful, this case would strip Rocha of his U.S. citizenship. Warnings about Rocha’s activities date back decades, with intelligence suggesting that communist Cuba had a “super mole” inside the U.S. government as early as 1987. This is not the first time in recent years that a Western government official has been caught spying for a communist country. Earlier in May, it was reported that Chi Leung “Peter” Wai, an official for the United Kingdom’s Border Force, had been using his access to immigration databases to track Hong Kong dissidents in Britain on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Wai’s conviction was the first of its kind in the United Kingdom.

California Election Integrity Questioned as HUNDREDS of Uncounted Ballots Discovered Post-Certification.

The discovery of almost 600 uncounted ballots in Humboldt County, California, has reignited concerns over election integrity as states seek to redraw their congressional maps.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Officials in Humboldt County, California, have discovered almost 600 uncounted ballots from California’s redistricting election in November last year. The uncounted ballots were found in a locked drop box.
📍 WHEN & WHERE: The ballots were found on May 4, 2026, six months after the election results were certified.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “The Unconstitutional Redistricting Vote in California is a GIANT SCAM in that the entire process, in particular the Voting itself, is RIGGED.” – President Donald J. Trump on Truth Social at the time of California’s special election.
🎯 IMPACT: While the uncounted ballots would not have changed the outcome of the election, the case substantiates ongoing concerns about election integrity, especially regarding mail-in voting. Earlier in the year, President Donald J. Trump announced an executive order to reform mail-in ballots and strengthen ballot security. A few days later, in early April, a coalition of leftist organizations announced its intention to block the President’s reforms via the courts. The discovery of uncounted ballots comes during the nationwide scramble to redistrict states ahead of the midterms in November. Redistricting measures favoring the incumbent party have been pursued in several other states, including Texas, Florida, and Virginia.
📺 DETAIL: On November 4, 2025, California voted on a measure to redraw its congressional map. The proposed map heavily favored the incumbent Democrats. All ballots cast in the special election were to be counted by December 5, 2025, the day when the election was certified. However, on May 4, 2026, Humboldt County officials announced that they had uncovered 596 uncounted ballots in a locked drop box. The discovered ballots were sealed and untampered with. Officials claim that a miscommunication led to the drop box not being fully emptied. “Immediately after the discovery, elections staff worked to ensure proper protocol was followed. It was confirmed the uncounted ballots had not been tampered with because the drop box was locked and the ballots were sealed. The Humboldt County Office of Elections then worked in partnership with the California Secretary of State to determine next steps,” reads a statement from Humboldt County officials.
