Fox News’ Laura Ingraham offered some rare praise for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) on Thursday’s edition of The Ingraham Angle, calling her an “attractive millennial with a powerful surface appeal.” The segment began with the Fox News host showing a clip of Ocasio-Cortez denying she’s thought about a 2028 presidential run, with Ingraham remarking, “I actually kind of believe her. I’m not sure she’s obsessing about it right now,” before adding, “Has she weighed anything seriously ever?” Here, Ingraham was referencing the next-played clip of the congresswoman being questioned in 2018 on her use of the word “occupation” to describe Israel’s actions in Palestine, to which she responded, “I am not the expert on geopolitics on this issue.” “Well, gotta give her credit,” Ingraham admitted. “She didn’t know much — still won. But the fact is, AOC is an attractive millennial with a powerful surface appeal. With her long, sleek raven hair and red lipstick, she’s at times played dual roles — kind of the earnest activist, up from her bootstraps, who wants to stick it to the man, and then at times, she’s kind of played the girly-girl who shares her favorite recipe on TikTok.” “Okay, she should bring that back,” the Fox News host continued of Ocasio-Cortez’s food-focused online presence. “Okay? I like cooking videos. There’s nothing wrong with that. The question is, what is she cooking up with socialism?” Despite her insistence that she hasn’t thought about 2028, a University of New Hampshire poll released Wednesday showed the congresswoman leading the pack of potential Democratic presidential nominees, with 22% support. Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg finished a close second with 21%, while California Governor Gavin Newsom, former Vice President Kamala Harris, and Sens. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT) each received less than 10%.

Wolf was asked about the price of oil jumping earlier in the day as Iran-backed forces attacked more oil tankers in the region, expanding attacks into the Red Sea as well. “Yeah, I mean, listen, there’s a lot to unpack about what’s happened in the past week. Obviously, the MOU wasn’t worth the paper it’s on. I mean, I’m going to continue what Annie said. You know, if you think about March 2026, when President Trump was in Kentucky, he said in the first hour it was over, but ‘we won.’ I hate to say this, but that’s like a ‘mission accomplished’ moment,” Wolf said, referring to President George W. Bush’s now-infamous 2003 speech, in which he prematurely declared victory in Iraq in front of a banner that read “Mission Accomplished.” “Right now, it doesn’t feel like we have an exit strategy. Yesterday was a brutal day for America, with the dignified transfers. I mean, any parent out there — we saw a young woman, 19, we saw a man, 25, who were deceased from this war that, unfortunately, the administration isn’t calling a war,” Wolf continued, adding: I mean, I think that we have to resolve this. I don’t think it should be boots on the ground, and I think we should really put a chokehold on everything economic with them. They are at 85% inflation. There is no way that our ally should be sitting on the sidelines, when actually the closing of the Strait of Hormuz doesn’t even impact the U.S. — it impacts APAC and India. And I think that it’s time that we resolve this the right and smart way. And if that means we have to battle a little longer, so be it, but I’m not for putting more men and women in harm’s way with boots on the ground.

- Man Stabs Two In New York City While Allegedly Yelling ‘Allahu Akbar’Police arrested a suspect Thursday after two men were stabbed in separate attacks on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, with the NYPD investigating the incidents as a possible hate crime. According to authorities, the first attack occurred shortly before 1:30 p.m. near West 84th Street and Central Park West, where a 57-year-old man was stabbed in the torso. A second victim, a 50-year-old man, was attacked minutes later near West 86th Street and Amsterdam Avenue, close to both a church and a synagogue. NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the victims, an Asian man and a Jewish man, were transported to Mount Sinai Morningside Hospital. One of the men was initially listed in critical condition, though Tisch later said both are expected to survive. This afternoon, two people were stabbed in separate attacks on the Upper West Side. Both victims — an Asian male and a Jewish male — were removed to Mt. Sinai-St. Luke’s Hospital, and both are expected to survive. The NYPD has arrested 51-year-old Raul Morales in connection… — Jessica S. Tisch (@NYPDPC) July 23, 2026 Police identified the suspect as 51-year-old Raul Morales, who was taken into custody at an apartment building a few blocks from the second stabbing scene. Morales had not been charged as of Thursday afternoon and remained under questioning by detectives. Investigators are also working to determine whether Morales used both a blade and a screwdriver during the attacks. While officials said the investigation remains in its early stages, Tisch said witness and victim accounts indicate that “Morales yelled ‘Allahu Akbar’ during both attacks,” prompting detectives to evaluate “whether this is a potential hate crime.” “While the perpetrator has no known mental health history with the NYPD, the initial investigation suggests that mental health may have been a factor,” Tisch said. “At this time, there is no known link between Morales and either of the victims, nor between the victims and each other.” New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he had been briefed on the attacks and condemned the violence. I have been briefed on today’s horrifying stabbings on the Upper West Side, where an Asian man and a Jewish man were attacked. According to witness and victim statements, the perpetrator yelled “Allahu Akbar” during both attacks. I am relieved that both victims are in stable… https://t.co/0LSGtvPojx — Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani (@NYCMayor) July 23, 2026 … [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago

(Alex Brandon/AP photo) President Donald Trump’s administration removed four American service members from the Pentagon’s public Iran war casualty count after determining they died following the president’s April ceasefire declaration, according to a bombshell report from The New York Times. The outlet reported Thursday that the Defense Department’s casualty website listed 18 U.S. service members killed in the conflict on Wednesday before the figure was reduced to 14 the following day. Three military officials told the Times that the change reflected a decision to exclude four troops killed over the weekend because their deaths occurred after Trump declared a ceasefire in April. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive internal deliberations. Pentagon acting press secretary Joel Valdez disputed that characterization, telling the Times the change stemmed from “temporary data disruptions” and “anomalies” affecting the website that he said would soon be corrected. “The department attempted to explain the anomalies to The New York Times ahead of publication, but given their lack of knowledge in this area, they proceeded to write a non-story,” Valdez told the outlet in an email, adding, “We remain committed to ensuring the utmost accuracy of all casualty reporting.” The report comes as the Pentagon has released relatively little information about the war since the ceasefire collapsed. According to the Times, citing several anonymous U.S. officials, the department also withheld information about three Iranian strikes in Jordan last week that left dozens of U.S. service members hurt and damaged multiple helicopters. Retired Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges, who previously commanded U.S. Army forces in Europe, criticized the administration’s handling of casualty information. “The administration seems to have a real hard time being honest about what is going on — not just about casualties, but about the whole war in general,” Hodges told the Times. He added that downplaying troop deaths suggests “an unwillingness or inability to aggressively learn from mistakes.” Despite the revised casualty figures appearing on the Pentagon’s website, Trump continued citing the higher total on Thursday, saying that while even one death “is too many,” “it’s 18.”The post NEW: Bombshell Report Reveals Trump Admin Removed US Troops’ Names From Iran Casualty List first appeared on Mediaite.

(AP Photo/Alex Brandon) President Donald Trump announced a new policy on Thursday evening for trying to combat Iranian attacks in the Strait of Hormuz: paying to repair commercial vessels they damage with their own money. “Please let this statement serve to represent, until further notice, that from this point forth, any and all damages done to Ships, Cargo, or anything related thereto, will be paid for by Iranian Money that the United States has in its possession, and controls,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, adding: These damages may be very substantial but, nevertheless, this is the fair and equitable thing to do. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP Trump’s statement came after the Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen successfully attacked two Saudi ships in the Red Sea, which sent the price of oil back over $100 a barrel. The Houthis announced a blockade of Saudi oil earlier in the week, and the attacks on the tankers sent fears through the energy markets that both the Red Sea and the Strait of Hormuz may have shipping disrupted. Iran has managed to snarl the Strait of Hormuz for months with attacks on commercial vessels, effectively blocking one of the world’s key energy transit hubs. Trump told Axios on Thursday that he was “considering a massive attack” on Iran that would be “bigger than ever before.” “I am close to making a decision. We are all set for it,” Trump added to reporter Barak Ravid.The post NEW: Trump Announces New Policy to Try to Stop Escalating Iranian Attacks On Oil Tankers first appeared on Mediaite.
