Netanyahu is expected to be at the UN General Assembly in September, and Mamdani was asked what he would do to fulfil his campaign promise. His answer: He would do whatever the law allowed. Meaning? Meaning that he's having active conversations with the city's lawyers to find a way to arrest Netanyahu.]]>Sat, 18 Jul 2026 17:00:52 -0400<![CDATA[Brett T.]]><![CDATA[International Criminal Court]]><![CDATA[Israel]]><![CDATA[New York]]><![CDATA[United Nations]]><![CDATA[Zohran Mamdani]]>https://twitchy.com/brettt/2026/07/18/mamdani-holding-talks-on-possibility-of-arresting-netanyahu-at-the-un-this-september-n2430359<![CDATA[A couple hundred wildfires burning in Canada have blanketed large parts of the U.S. with thick smoke, and it just keeps coming:&nbsp;]]>Sat, 18 Jul 2026 16:40:36 -0400<![CDATA[Doug P.]]><![CDATA[Canada]]><![CDATA[Chicago]]><![CDATA[Donald Trump]]><![CDATA[Tariffs]]><![CDATA[Woke]]>https://twitchy.com/dougp/2026/07/18/canadian-official-starts-remarks-about-wildfire-efforts-with-a-land-acknowledgement-n2430364<![CDATA['When you're here, you're family,' goes the official Olive Garden slogan.
