Editor’s note | The following is a firsthand account from independent journalist Jalyssa Dugrot, who was present at the June 2025 protests in Los Angeles against Immigration and Customs Enforcement. While MintPress News focuses mostly on investigative reporting, we are publishing this personal narrative to document the intensifying criminalization of protest and press freedoms in…
Flying under the media radar, the Heritage Foundation—a think tank widely viewed as the intellectual engine behind the Trump administration’s foreign policy agenda—has published a brief that appears to map out the president’s prospective approach to Iran. The six-page document advocates ending nuclear negotiations and pursuing joint U.S.-Israeli strikes against Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. Though thinly…
Originally published at ScheerPost on May 27, 2025. Republished with permission. The media, universities, the Democratic Party and liberals, by embracing the fiction of “rampant antisemitism,” laid the groundwork for their own demise. Columbia and Princeton, where I have taught, and Harvard, which I attended, are not incubators of hatred towards Jews. The New York…
On April 8, a bipartisan commission chartered by Congress warned that China is rapidly advancing a terrifying new military threat: genetically engineered “super soldiers.” The report by the National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology (NSCEB) urges the U.S. to respond with a sweeping effort to militarize biotechnology. It offers little concrete evidence that such Chinese…
A sweeping pro-Israel bill backed by Republican leadership and AIPAC collapsed this week after a rare revolt by right-wing lawmakers who argued it posed a direct threat to Americans’ First Amendment rights. The bill, H.R. 867 — known as the IGO Anti-Boycott Act — would have imposed up to $1 million in fines and prison…
The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump—and many of his most prominent right-wing supporters—are directly linked to some of the most radically pro-war, pro-Israel organizations in the country. These connections form a sprawling web of lobbying groups, tech billionaires, and media figures who consistently promote Israeli interests above those of ordinary Americans. Why has the…
Across the United States and much of the West, criticism of Israel and solidarity with Palestine are increasingly being criminalized—a project long championed by Israel’s government and its powerful lobbying networks. In February 2020, Israeli leader and internationally wanted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu proudly declared that Tel Aviv had “promoted laws in most U.S. states”…
Erik Prince, the controversial founder of Blackwater and longtime ally of Donald Trump, is mounting a major comeback. He has secured a new deal to “protect” the Democratic Republic of Congo’s (DRC) lucrative mineral sector and is pitching a privatized prison complex in El Salvador that critics say echoes Guantanamo Bay. In a letter dated…
Google recently announced it would acquire Israeli-American cloud security firm Wiz for $32 billion. The price tag — 65 times Wiz’s annual revenue — has raised eyebrows and further solidified the close relationship between Google and the Israeli military. In its press release, the Silicon Valley giant claimed that the purchase will “vastly improve how…
Under the pretext of dismantling Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs—widely unpopular among American conservatives—the powerful Heritage Foundation has begun to extend its campaign to anti-war activism and leftist causes on university campuses. The Trump administration appears to be enacting this agenda step by step. DEI initiatives have become a fault line in America’s ever-deepening…
On March 25, Donald Trump signed an executive order declassifying all documentation related to Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI’s 2016 investigation into alleged collusion between Russia and then-presidential candidate Donald Trump. The order has unexpectedly resurrected buried documents that cast new light on the Steele dossier — and when it was known to be false. It…
President Donald Trump’s decision to release previously classified JFK assassination files has sent pro-Israel conservative pundits into damage-control mode as renewed scrutiny falls on a potential Israeli motive in the killing of the 35th U.S. president. On March 18, more than 63,000 pages related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy were published by…

by Jewish Anti-Zionist Congress In Austria, as in many European countries and in North America, the ruling class uses alleged antisemitism as a pretext to suppress opposition to the Israeli colonial occupation of Palestine and to genocide. Jewish participation in solidarity with Palestine helps to counter this deceptive tactic. The following is a statement issued…
