Forbes has cited The National Pulse Editor-in-Chief’s E. Jean Carroll case summary in an article detailing President Donald J. Trump’s response to the jury’s verdict last week.
Trump, who had disparaged Carroll and the trial as it was going on, stayed silent in the aftermath of the verdict, avoiding any direct attacks on Carroll. He did, however, call the verdict “absolutely ridiculous” and said he would appeal. “Our Legal System is out of control, and being used as a Political Weapon” he said on his Truth Social platform.
Trump has, however, shared articles from right-leaning media sites, including an opinion piece by Raheem Kassam in The National Pulse calling the Carroll verdict “the Greatest Miscarriage of Justice in Modern American History.”

The U.S. military failed to down a drone that killed three American servicemen and wounded dozens more because it was confused with a returning U.S. drone.
Questions were raised as to why the drone strike, claimed by the Iran-backed Islamic Resistance in Iraq, was not stopped by air defenses before it struck Tower 22, a U.S. outpost in Jordan. Officials now say a U.S. drone was returning to base at the same time the jihadist drone was inbound, allowing it to glide in unmolested.
The attack on Tower 22 marks the first time American personnel have been killed in the Middle East since October 2023, when they began to be targeted over Washington’s support for the Israelis in their ongoing retaliatory offensive against Hamas in Gaza.
Hostilities intensified over recent weeks after Yemen-based Houthi terrorists began targeting civilian shipping in the Red Sea to put pressure on Israel and its backers, prompting American and British air attacks.
Iran has denied any involvement in the attack on Tower 22. The White House has said it will respond, but it is currently unclear whether or not they will acquiesce to demands from GOP war hawks such as Senator Lindsey Graham to strike Iran directly.

Joe Biden’s approval rating has cratered among 18-29-year-olds. A key demographic for the Democrat in 2020, younger voters now give him one of the worst ratings of any cohort in the country, with 27 percent approving of his performance against 71 percent disapproving.
The President’s popularity among voters under 30 may have been damaged by his stance on the Israel-Hamas war. Members of his own government and campaign staff are in revolt over his position, with some penning an open letter warning it is “a moral and electoral imperative for [him] to publicly call for a cessation of violence” as “Biden for President staff have seen volunteers quit in droves.”
Black Americans, Biden’s other key demographic, also give the 81-year-old Democrat a slightly negative approval rating, with 48 percent approval versus 49 percent disapproval. He commanded 92 percent of the black vote in 2020.
This is still his strongest approval rating by ethnicity by far, however. Among Asians, his approval-to-disapproval rating is 39-59, while among Hispanics it is 32-65, scarcely better than his rating among whites, which stands at 30-68.
Biden enjoys a very slight net positive approval rating of 50-49 among those with postgraduate qualifications, but it collapses to 36-62 among regular college graduates. His rating among non-college graduates is dire, tying with his rating among 18-29-year-olds at 27-71.
Biden’s overall approval rating reached a high of 54 percent in early 2021 but dipped below 50 percent before the year was out and has never recovered. It currently stands at 33 percent approve, 65 percent disapprove.

At least 291 pounds of cocaine, fentanyl, marijuana, and methamphetamine were seized at Customs and Border checkpoints during a single week, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials.
Narcotics were intercepted at multiple points of entry, starting with 18.56 pounds of powdered fentanyl and 63.8 pounds of methamphetamine at Ysleta on January 16th. This was followed by 29.18 pounds of cocaine at Paso Del Norte on January 18th.
January 20th saw two hauls of drugs, beginning with nine packets of cocaine totaling 23.36 pounds at Marcelino Serna. They were found hidden in a propane tank in a vehicle driven by a Mexican national. Back at Ysleta later the same day, 100.95 pounds of cannabis were found in the trunk of a car.
Finally, 55.55 pounds of methamphetamine were found at Columbus on January 23rd. Similarly to the cocaine found at Marcelino Serna, it was hidden in the tank of a car driven by a Mexican.
Drug deaths in the U.S. set a new record in 2022, coming in at around 110,000. In 2023, the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) seized enough fentanyl alone to kill every American citizen. Drug death estimates for the year are yet to be released.
Donald Trump believes the drug crisis is driven by the border crisis, which is “poisoning the blood” of the country.

A plannedmeeting between Biden re-election campaign officials and Arab-American and Mulsim leaders in Dearborn, Michigan, was canceled after it drew mass opposition from members of the city’s Arab community. President Joe Biden has come under increasing fire from Arab and Muslim Americans over his handling of the Israeli-Hamas War.
Assad Turfe, who organized the sit-down, said he canceled the meeting — initially scheduled for Friday afternoon – as it was “in the best interest of the community.” He added: “As the community got to learn about the meeting, there was definitely a lot of outrage and, ultimately, the decision was made to cancel the meeting.”
“Unless something drastic happens, you have lost the Arab American and Muslim community. At this point, from what I can see, there’s no winning them over. That was the idea of the meeting,” the Lebanese-American and the deputy county executive of Wayne County said, adding: “Until there’s a cease-fire, the overall consensus in the community is they’re not welcome here, essentially.”
Julie Chavez Rodriguez, the campaign manager for Biden’s re-election campaign, was initially set to meet with about a dozen local leaders in the majority Arab-American community before the cancellation. The Detroit News reported that Rodriguez did meet with members of the Dearborn community individually.
The Biden campaign has turned up efforts at outreach to minority communities in critical swing states like Michigan to reverse flagging approval numbers. While Biden’s popularity has dropped among Black and Hispanic voters over the last year, it has taken an even more significant hit among Arab-American and Muslim voters since the October 7th Hamas terrorist attack against Israel. Biden has also faced increasing opposition from his political staff and Democrat Members of Congress.

E. Jean Carroll’s post-trial publicity tour is undercutting her testimony that former President Donald Trump’s comments on social media and in the press drew undue attention to her, causing reputational damage. Appearing on CBS Mornings, Carroll told the panel of hosts that instead of the the spotlight being on her, she — and the media — are the ones drawing attention to Trump and giving him “power.” Separately, on Good Morning America, she said she’d like to use the money to cause Donald Trump “pain.”
“We’re the ones who clothe him in all this power,” Carroll said, referencing the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale The Emperor’s New Clothes. She added: “He has none himself, it’s his followers. It’s his hangers-on. In the court, they were strutting back and forth, handing him messages.”
After making the admission, Carroll suddenly looked at her lawyer Roberta Kaplan — seated next to her for the interview — and asked, “Right Robbie?” before breaking the line of thought entirely.
During Carroll’s second defamation trial against former President Trump, her legal team relied heavily on the argument that the former President’s posts to his massive social media audience brought negative attention to Carroll, hurting her professional and social standing. They called on Northwestern University marking and communications professor Ashlee Humphreys to bolster their claim as an ‘expert witness’ on reputational damage and repair. Upon cross-examination, however, Prof. Humphreys admitted she had no real-life experience in the field of reputational management.
When asked about former President Trump’s campaign to return to the White House and if she’s spoken with his opponent, President Joe Biden, Carroll said she had not. The CBS panel then asked her if she could join Biden in campaigning against Trump, with Carroll responding: “I’d do anything I can.”
In another Sunday appearance on Good Morning America with George Stephanopoulos, Carroll said she is considering using some of the $83.3 million judgment against Trump to “cause him pain.”
She told the host: “I’d like to give the money to something Donald Trump hates. If it will cause him pain for me to give money to certain things, that’s my intent.”
Last week, a New York City jury ordered former President Trump to pay Carroll nearly $90 million in damages.
“The elation was so great on Friday, it filled me up. It was almost painful.”

Editor’s Notes
Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
Representative Ilhan Omar, the Somalia-born Minnesota Democrat, was recorded telling a Somali audience they are “people of the same blood, people who know they are Somalians first, Muslims second, who protect each other,” adding she is “here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the U.S. system.”
Omar’s speech was prompted by anger in Somalia and among the Somali diaspora over an agreement between Ethiopia and the Republic of Somaliland, an officially unrecognized but effectively self-governing state in Somalia’s north.
“Somalia is for Somali people. Somalia is one. We are all brothers and sisters. Our land cannot be divided,” she said, assuring listeners that Somalis in the U.S. will decide the U.S. position on Somaliland and even alluding to reclaiming Somali territories in modern-day Kenya, Ethiopia, and other neighboring countries.
Somaliland was formerly British Somaliland, merging with Italian Somaliland to form modern-day Somalia in 1960 — but it soon soured on the union with its southerly neighbor, mounting an unsuccessful attempt to secede as early as December 1961.
Somalia soon fell into dictatorship, precipitating another northern rebellion in the 1980s, with Somaliland achieving de facto independence by 1991.
Omar has claimed outsiders’ interpretations of her speech, which has gone viral on social media, are “completely off,” but reiterated she stands in “solidarity” with those opposed to Somaliland’s independence.
We were profoundly surprised, even shocked on discovering the remarks made by Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D) of Minnesota in a recent public forum, widely circulated on most social media platforms and attached below for your reference.

The European Institute for Gender Equality, an agency of the European Union (EU), has issued a lengthy document decrying phrases like “a man’s home is his castle” and traditions like referring to a ship as a “she.”
The ‘Toolkit on Gender-sensitive Communication’ hectors readers on a range of common expressions like ‘Joe Public,’ which they are told to drop in favor of the anodyne “an average citizen.”
Other terms deemed problematic include “brotherhood,” “countryman,” and “Englishman,” with the EU agency recommending “community,” “compatriot,” and “English person” instead.
The toolkit also takes issue with “King and Queen,” “ladies and gentlemen,” “husband and wife,” and related terms, suggesting readers “try swapping the order of these phrases sometimes.”
It also warns against referring to a ship as a ‘her’ rather than an ‘it’, or using language like “France and her citizens” instead of “France and its citizens,” or calling a person’s native language their “mother tongue.”
In some cases, the toolkit tells readers to completely reframe certain adjectives it deems sexist to paint negative behavior as positive; for example, a “loose” woman should instead be described as “having sexual confidence,” while an emotional or hormonal woman should instead be described as passionate, enthusiastic, or empathetic.

An analysis by The National Pulse has revealed that Western nations donated over $8 billion to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRW) between 2013 and 2022. Over $2.5 billion came from the United States alone.
According to data compiled by UNRWA, in the ten years from 2013 to 2022, the United States gave $2,558,830,210, the EU and its member states collectively gave $5,246,475,932, and Australia, Canada, and New Zealand gave a combined $313,429,066 to the controversial agency — a grand total of $8,118,735,208.
At least 11 nations have announced their intention to stop funding UNRWA following revelations that some of its employees directly took part in the October 7, 2023, terrorist attack against Israel, including participating in massacres at an Israel Kibbutz and kidnapping women.
In the final two years of his presidency, Donald Trump eliminated U.S. funding for UNRWA. The Biden regime reauthorized funding for the agency and gave it a combined $682,337,718 in 2021 and 2022. Figures for 2023 funding for UNRWA are not yet available.

The National Pulse’s editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam explained from the War Room stage in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Monday that President Biden’s early effort to undo President Donald Trump’s foreign policy is directly responsible for the deaths of American soldiers at the hands of Iranian-backed militants in Jordan.
Appearing alongside Stephen K. Bannon at Turning Point USA’s “Alternative RNC,” Kassam laid out how the Biden government’s lifting of sanctions on Iran and its proxies served to empower the state-sponsor of terrorism and further entangle the U.S. in Middle East conflicts.
“If you want the inside track on how you got into this situation in Iran,” Kassam told Bannon this morning, explaining: “When the Biden regime took power, the foreign policy adults, the geniuses in the room – you talk to anybody that works in that area, they’ll tell you this – they tried to look for areas in which they didn’t think their actions would make a huge difference, but they wanted to show the press that they were very different from the Trump administration. And so they picked – day one – they said, ‘Look, let’s just flip all of these Iran sanctions off; we’ll hit the reset button. What we’re really trying to show here is that we’re not Trump, and we’re not Trump’s people. We’ll deal with anything else that happens after that.'”
Kassam went on to note: “What happens after that, well Americans have died.”
Aside from lifting economic sanctions on the Islamic Republic of Iran, President Biden, on his first day in office, also removed the official terrorist designation for the Houthi rebel group. The U.S. Department of State argued this would ease the facilitation of humanitarian aid to Yemen, which has been embroiled for over a decade in civil war.
The Houthis, a military proxy of Iran, began a campaign against Western commercial shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden last year. The Houthi attacks began after Israel invaded Gaza following the barbaric October 7th Hamas terrorist attacks against the Jewish State.
