‘FOLKS, THERE’S A LOT WE’RE DOING’: In remarks to members of the Jewish community yesterday in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building next to the White House, President Joe Biden said there is a lot going on behind the scenes to rescue 17 or more U.S. citizens believed to be held hostage by Hamas terrorists in Gaza.
“Our message to all these families affected is that, you know, we're with you; we're grieving with you; we're sorrowful with you; we're worrying with you,” said NSC spokesman John Kirby. “And we're going to do everything we can, particularly for those who don't know where a loved one is, to find out where they are and to get them home with you where they belong.”
In a televised address last night, Netanyahu promised to “crush and destroy” Hamas, adding, “Every Hamas member is a dead man.” Israel has said it will not supply electricity, water, or fuel to Gaza until all hostages are freed.

“I plan on voting for Jim Jordan on the floor,” said Rep. Nancy Mace . “I have been very vocal about this over the last couple of days. I personally cannot in good conscience vote for someone who attended a white supremacist conference and compared himself to David Duke.” “I don't think the gap is very broad here. We all know and understand, even in public outside of the intelligence, that Hamas is a franchise of Iran,” said Turner, who is chairman of the House Intelligence Committee. “They supplied them the rockets, the munitions, the training.”
The Eisenhower could join the USS Gerald R. Ford to increase the combat capability aimed at deterring any expansion of the war in Israel, but for now, that’s just a contingency option. “No operational decisions like that have been made,” said Kirby, “but she will be heading in that direction, her ships will be with her, and she certainly will be an available asset if needed.
