Do Americans support President Donald Trump’s decision to seize Venezuela’s leftist dictator Nicolas Maduro, despite a still-raging controversy in the mainstream media over the legality of the arrest? The answer is mostly yes, with some reservations, according to the latest I&I/TIPP Poll. The national online poll of 1,478 adults was taken from Jan. 6 to Jan. 9, mere days after Maduro’s Jan. 3 arrest by the U.S. military on charges of narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy, and possession of illegal weapons. The poll has a +/-2.9 percentage point margin of error. Specifically, I&I/TIPP asked Americans: “Do you approve or disapprove of the United States’ military operation that captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro?”

Assuming his intention was to mark the first anniversary of his return to the White House, President Trump couldn’t have picked a more suitable time or event to launch the Board of Peace for Gaza. His decision to hold the launch Thursday at a Davos gathering of world leaders highlights Trump’s role in trying to stop the war between Israel and Hamas and start the massive rebuilding of Gaza. It also reflects his unprecedented global footprint and illustrates once again that he is an American president like no other.

In the face of surging antisemitism across New York state — fueled by incessant illegal demonstrations in support of terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah — Attorney General Letitia James jumped into the fray to prosecute … Jews. James’ office announced last week that she’s concluded an agreement with Betar — a small and obscure Zionist group that advocates for Jewish safety and self-determination — forcing it to cease operations in New York. The AG says Betar engaged in a “campaign of violence, harassment, and intimidation against Arab, Muslim, and Jewish New Yorkers.”
