Republican comes out swinging against Trump’s Gaza plan: ‘We voted for America First’ –Trump indicated the U.S. will ‘take over’ the region | 5 Feb 2025 | After President Donald Trump announced that America “will take over the Gaza strip,” Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., pushed back against the idea, suggesting that the move would betray the “America First” principle Trump voters expected. During his inauguration speech last month, Trump unequivocally declared that throughout his administration he will “put America first,” echoing a longstanding pillar of his political philosophy, which he also expressed during his 2017 inaugural address. But Paul is throwing a red flag in response to Trump’s newly unveiled Gaza plans. “The pursuit for peace should be that of the Israelis and the Palestinians. I thought we voted for America First. We have no business contemplating yet another occupation to doom our treasure and spill our soldiers blood,” Paul declared in a Wednesday post on X.

The U.S. president reiterated his view that Palestinians should be permanently resettled elsewhere, adding that the U.S. would “take over” Gaza and lead efforts to clear the destruction left by 15 months of war between Israel and Hamas. “The U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip. And we will do a job with it, too. We’ll own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the site,” Trump said, promising to “level the site and get rid of the destroyed buildings.”

That would be the end,” Trump said in the Oval Office as he signed an order to reimpose maximum pressure on Tehran. “I’ve left instructions. If they do it, they get obliterated. There won’t be anything left, and they shouldn’t be able to do it. And Biden should have said that, but he never did. I don’t know why. Lack of intelligence, perhaps.”

U.S. failed to track weapons sent to Ukraine – Reuters | 4 Feb 2025 | U.S. officials could not tell whether tens of billions of dollars of weapons sent to Ukraine were actually delivered due to tracking systems failures, Reuters reported on Monday, citing sources. During the final year of Joe Biden’s regime, key weapons shipments to Ukraine faced prolonged delays due to concerns about depleting U.S. stockpiles and debates over whether the arms would trigger an escalation with Russia. According to a Reuters investigation, the Pentagon’s “chaotic weapons-tracking system in which even the definition of ‘delivered’ differed among US military branches,” was a significant contributor to the overall confusion. The system failure “skewed” Pentagon data, making it almost impossible to accurately pinpoint weapons in the shipping process, Reuters said, citing reports by the Government Accountability Office (GAO).
