IDF Reserve Brig. Gen. Amir Avivi credited President-elect Donald Trump’s stern warning as a pivotal factor in securing the Israel-Hamas cease-fire after a 15-month conflict. Avivi highlighted that Hamas, initially resistant to the deal since May, reconsidered under pressure, citing Trump’s statement that “all Hell will break out” if hostages weren’t returned by Jan. 20. Avivi also acknowledged Israel’s strategic victories over Hezbollah and Syria’s weakened stance as contributing factors. The agreement, brokered with Trump’s team, is set to take effect just before his inauguration. #IsraelHamas #MiddleEastConflict #DonaldTrump #TrumpWarning #CeaseFireAgreement #HamasHostages #IDFGeneral #TrumpLeadership #HamasCeaseFire #IsraelUpdates #MiddleEastNews #TrumpImpact #HamasDeal #TrumpTeam #HezbollahDefeat #IsraelHamasDeal #MiddleEastPeace #ConflictResolution #IsraelNews #TrumpBroker ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.125~

'Trump Would Have Been Convicted in Election Interference Case Had He Lost Election': Jack Smith

Special Counsel Jack Smith's report claims Donald Trump would have been convicted for election interference if he had not won the 2024 election. The 174-page report, submitted to Congress, argues that the Department of Justice's policy on presidential immunity prevented further prosecution. It highlights challenges faced in the investigation, including claims of political bias and witness intimidation. Trump’s response criticized Smith as biased, while the report's second volume, concerning classified documents, remains sealed. #JackSmith #ElectionInterference #TrumpConviction #DOJPolicy #PresidentialImmunity #CongressReport #WitnessIntimidation #LegalChallenges #ClassifiedDocuments #TrumpResponse #Oneindia #OneindiaNews Also Read Gaza Ceasefire Talks: Trump’s Role In Securing Peace And Ending 15-Month Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/gaza-ceasefire-talks-trump-s-role-in-securing-peace-and-ending-15-month-conflict-4041909.html?ref=DMDesc Los Angeles Wildfires Rage On: Santa Ana Winds Intensify Destruction, Death Toll Climbs :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/los-angeles-wildfires-rage-on-santa-ana-winds-intensify-destruction-death-toll-climbs-4041769.html?ref=DMDesc Will Prince William & Kate Attend Trump’s Inauguration?

Trump Triumphs Again: U.S President Elect's ‘Deranged’ Prosecutor Jack Smith Drops Charges

U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith has filed to drop federal charges against President-elect Donald Trump, reversing course on two high-profile cases. Smith, who led the Justice Department’s efforts in election interference and classified documents cases, charged Trump in 2023 with four felony counts, including conspiracy to defraud the U.S. and obstruct an official proceeding. Smith’s motion emphasizes that Justice Department policy prohibits criminal prosecution of a sitting president, regardless of the severity of the charges.Trump faced allegations of pressuring election officials to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 victory and inciting the January 6 Capitol riots. Despite the dropped charges, the government maintains confidence in its evidence and legal merits. Smith, who Trump has publicly criticized as “crooked” and a “lunatic,” is expected to resign before Trump’s January 2025 inauguration. Meanwhile, Trump’s sentencing in a separate New York case has been postponed indefinitely, signaling further legal uncertainties ahead. #TrumpChargesDropped #JackSmith #USPolitics #DonaldTrump #ElectionInterference #JusticeDepartment #CapitolRiots #BidenVictory #PresidentialTransition #LegalBattle ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~

‘...Miscarriage of Justice’: Trump Blasts Biden’s Pardon of Hunter, ‘Does it Include J-6 Hostages?’ [Video]

‘...Miscarriage of Justice’: Trump Blasts Biden’s Pardon of Hunter, ‘Does it Include J-6 Hostages?’

Donald Trump has sharply criticized President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son, Hunter Biden, calling it a “miscarriage of justice.” Trump questioned whether the pardon would extend to individuals detained in connection with the January 6 Capitol riot, who have been imprisoned for years. The pardon covers Hunter Biden’s felony convictions for tax evasion and purchasing a gun while lying about drug use. The move, which follows a previous denial by Biden, has sparked a heated debate, particularly as Biden had ruled out such a decision earlier. Trump’s comments emphasize the political nature of the pardon and highlight ongoing concerns about the legal implications of the January 6 riot. #TrumpVsBiden #HunterBidenPardon #MiscarriageOfJustice #J6Hostages #PardonControversy #BidenPardon #JusticeDebate #PoliticalJustice #BidenFamily #TrumpCriticism #HunterBiden #January6Riots #CapitolRiotPrisoners #USPolitics #LegalDebate ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.336~GR.125~
