Gov. Ron DeSantis Declares State of Emergency to Help Floridians Stuck in Israel

Gov.

Ron DeSantis , Declares State of Emergency , to Help Floridians Stuck in Israel.

The Florida governor signed the executive order on Oct.

12 as war in the Middle East rages on.

Unlike the governments of other countries, the Biden administration has failed to launch any form of rescue or evacuation operations for Americans, including Floridians, stranded in the region, and has failed to provide information requested by the State of Florida.

, Gov.

Ron DeSantis, via statement.

The order allows the Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) to "carry out logistical, rescue and evacuation operations to keep its residents safe.".

Most major airlines have suspended flights to and from Israel at this time.

There are more than 20,000 Americans, including Floridians, in Israel who wish to return home but are unable to do so, Jason Mahon, Gov.

DeSantis' director of communications, via statement.

The state is currently "working on transporting supplies" and "arranging for chartered flights home for Floridians currently in Israel," an official said.

.

Florida's National Guard and State Guard have also been activated to help "as needed," 'New York Post' reports.

Earlier this week, DeSantis proposed new sanctions on Iran, which stands with Hamas.

It all does go back to Iran and the Biden administration, unfortunately, has let up on Iran.

That’s part of the reason they’ve had a lot of money, we all need to come together as states and the federal government really turn the screws on Iran.

, Gov.

Ron DeSantis, via statement.

Middle-Aged Americans Are Underprepared for Retirement, Study Finds [Video]

Middle-Aged Americans Are Underprepared for Retirement, Study Finds

Middle-Aged Americans Are, Underprepared for Retirement, , Study Finds. 'Newsweek' reports that people in the United States who are approaching retirement age may be critically underprepared when it comes to their savings. According to Prudential Investments, Americans around the age of 55 are facing a "midlife retirement crisis," lacking the funds for a comfortable post-working life. . A recent survey by the major insurance provider found the average retirement savings of a 55-year-old to be $47,950. . This falls significantly short of the recommended goal of having eight times a person's annual income saved by the time they reach 55. . According to the survey, 57% of 55-year-olds said they expected to outlive the funds they have currently managed to save. That's compared to 59% of 65-year-olds and 52% of 75-year-olds. The survey also found that one-third of 55-year-olds and 43% of 65-year-olds have already been forced to postpone retirement due to inflation. Attention today is rightly centered on the approximately 11,000 65-year-olds entering retirement every week, but we must also focus as an industry on the opportunity to help a slightly younger generation of workers entering the critical 10-year countdown to retirement, Caroline Feeney, executive vice president and head of Prudential's U.S. Businesses, via 'Newsweek'. Further, the financial futures of certain cohorts—such as women—are especially precarious, Caroline Feeney, executive vice president and head of Prudential's U.S. Businesses, via 'Newsweek'. The upside is that, with the right planning and strategy to protect their life's work, we can ensure this generation is well-prepared to live not only longer, but better, Caroline Feeney, executive vice president and head of Prudential's U.S. Businesses, via 'Newsweek'

Reports suggest Russia plans to arm Yemen's Houthi rebels with advanced anti-ship ballistic cruise missiles, potentially shifting Middle East power dynamics. This move could threaten Western interests, especially commercial shipping in the Red Sea. The Houthis, aligned with Iran, have increased attacks on vessels recently. Russia's closer ties with Iran and anti-Western alliances drive this cooperation.
