Secretary of State Marco Rubio addresses questions about the administration's support for Palestinian statehood, describing it as a long-term process rather than a "yes or no" question. Rubio emphasizes that statehood is impossible as long as Gaza is governed by Hamas or any group seeking Israel's destruction. The immediate priority remains the release of hostages and establishing security conditions that prevent future terrorism.

President Biden announced he would sign a Republican-led resolution to overturn the DC Council's revised criminal code, which sought to lower penalties for carjackings. This move is seen as a political pivot for Biden ahead of 2024 to avoid being labeled "soft on crime." The decision also complicates the ongoing push for DC statehood, as it reinforces the federal government's oversight of the district's local laws.

The Palestinian Authority is seeking an upgrade to "non-member observer state" status at the UN General Assembly, with France announcing its support for the resolution. Celebrations in Ramallah's Arafat Square reflect the anticipation of this indirect recognition of statehood. The "upgrade" terminology is compared to airline travel, where Palestinians are waiting to see if their status will change at the international "gate."

During a speech on "21st Century Statehood," Hillary Clinton made a cryptic remark about a "New World Order with seven Rahm Emanuels." The hosts find the phrasing significant, suggesting it telegraphs a desire for a global governance structure modeled after Chicago-style politics. They interpret the comment as a rare, blatant admission of globalist ambitions.
