President Donald Trump called on attendees at the Faith & Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority Conference on Friday to pressure Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) to change her staunch opposition to the SAVE America Act. Though Senate Republicans have repeatedly failed to whip enough votes to pass the bill, Trump declared earlier this week that he […]
With the midterm elections rapidly approaching and polls showing Republicans in serious trouble with voters, they have become frantic to pass the SAVE America Act. Twenty-five House members are now promising to vote no on everything until the act is passed. Their panic is based on the entirely unfounded belief that passing the act would make some meaningful difference in the midterm results.

A group of Democrats identifying as moderate say they are organizing to oppose the extremist policies of the far right as well as those of the socialists on the far left.The moderate-identifying Democrats are unhappy about the recent victories of far-left extremists in places like New York City, where Democratic incumbents lost in primaries this week. About a dozen moderate-identifying Democrats signed on the pledge at the "Promise to America" website.'Americans want safe communities and institutions that solve problems. We believe in building more to lower costs and expand opportunity.'Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi of New York appeared on Fox News to publicize the effort."You know there are certain things that I believe in that are not being reflected in the current environment, especially with some of these races on Tuesday," said Suozzi."As we said in our pledge, we're for capitalism, not socialism. We're for safety, not lawlessness. We're proud of America, not ashamed of America — and we need to be promoting those things," he added. "The far left and the far right, you know, they're all very well organized. But those of us that don't support those far-left or far-right principles need to do a better job organizing and getting our message out.""America is stronger than our politics. Politics forces false choices between extremes on right and left. We reject them," the group said in the pledge."Too many Americans have not benefited from the last half-century of economic growth," they added. "Americans want an economy that lowers costs, expands opportunity, and rewards the people who work hard every day. Americans want safe communities and institutions that solve problems. We believe in building more to lower costs and expand opportunity. We believe Democrats succeed when we speak to the whole country and value persuasion over purity."The website asks supporters of the cause to sign the pledge as well.RELATED: Hunter Biden wants Democrats to learn EXTREME lesson from NYC elections The victories of far-left socialists backed by Democratic New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani have been seen by many as a revolution in the Democratic Party. Some, like Hunter Biden, have opined that the victories mean the Democratic Party needs to lurch into the far left and push harder for socialism. Other Democrats who signed onto the moderate-identifying agenda include Rep. Adam Gray of California, Rep. Laura Gillen of New York, Rep. Kristen McDonald Rivet of Michigan, and Rep. Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey, among others. Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!
Israel and Lebanon signed a framework agreement on Friday after four days of negotiations in Washington, mediated by the Trump administration, Israeli and Lebanese officials told Axios. Why it matters: The signing is a significant diplomatic breakthrough, but it's unclear how much of it can be implemented as long as Hezbollah is still armed and influential in the country.Breaking it down: The framework agreement describes a path for a future peace agreement and includes immediate steps on the ground the parties will take.One such step is the launching of two "pilot projects" where the Israeli military is to withdraw from small areas it currently occupies and the Lebanese army is to deploy there.Israeli and U.S. officials said that U.S. military officers will be involved in working with the Lebanese army on the "pilot projects," mainly to verify these areas have no Hezbollah presence.One of the two areas is north of the Litani River and the other is to the south of it, two Israeli officials said.While the Israeli withdrawal is expected to be limited, it will be the first such move since Israel expanded its occupation of southern Lebanon during the war with Iran.State of play: A fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah has largely held since last Saturday, though Israel has conducted several strikes on what it claimed were immediate threats from Hezbollah.Driving the news: The agreement was signed by the Israeli and Lebanese ambassadors to Washington and State Department counselor Dan Holler.Secretary of State Marco Rubio said at the signing ceremony at the State Department that "it is a good day" but stressed "there is a lot of work ahead."Behind the scenes: Rubio held calls on Thursday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun to try to solve final disagreements, a U.S. official said. Rubio joined the talks between the negotiating teams on Friday morning.
