FBI Director Kash Patel speaks in Orem, Utah, September 12, 2025
Kash Patel to face questions from Congress amid turmoil at his FBI
WASHINGTON – After months of slow burning controversies around his agency, from the handling of the investigation into Charlie Kirk’s murder to the bungled release of Epstein files, FBI Director Kash Patel will face Senate and House lawmakers at two highly anticipated hearings.Lawmakers are expected to push Patel, a Donald Trump loyalist and right-wing firebrand, to explain to a questioning public whether he is truly equipped to run the nation’s top law enforcement agency and to confront doubters who worry he’s stripped the bureau of some of its credibility.Before Kirk, a friend of Patel, was murdered last week, the FBI director had been preparing to focus at least some of his testimony on his efforts to relitigate the 2016 Russia investigation, and what Patel has said was a plot...

Spain's PM Sánchez calls for Israel to be banned from sports events over war in Gaza
MADRID – Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez called for Israel to be banned from sports events on Monday after pro-Palestinian activists disrupted the final stage of the Vuelta cycle race in chaotic scenes in Madrid.Tensions between the two countries have escalated in recent weeks as Spain's left-wing government expressed support for protesters who interrupted several stages of the Vuelta, including Sunday's final stage in Madrid, because an Israeli team was taking part.Speaking to members of his Socialist Party, Sánchez said Israel, just like Russia, should not be allowed to compete in international sports events because of its military campaign in Gaza."The sports organisations should consider whether it’s ethical for Israel to keep participating in international...

Netanyahu admits Israel faces prolonged ‘isolation’ over war in Gaza
TEL AVIV – With global anger mounting over the nearly two-year war in Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Monday that Israel is facing a “kind of isolation” that could last for years, and has no choice but to stand on its own.Speaking at a finance ministry conference, Netanyahu said Israel’s economy would need to adapt to “autarkic characteristics” – becoming more self-sufficient and less reliant on external trade.“It’s a word I hate,” Netanyahu said, adding that it was he who had brought a “free-market revolution to Israel.”One of the key industries facing isolation is weapons trade, he said, which may force Israel to avoid reliance on foreign arms imports.“We’ll need to develop our weapons industry – we’re going to be Athens and super...
