IN TODAY’S NEWS:
– Edan Alexander, an American hostage, has been freed by Hamas after over 580 days
– A swing state enacts a ban on campus encampments amid increased scrutiny of anti-Israel protests
– A legal expert weighs in on Trump’s confrontation with Harvard University, stating the need for accountability
MAJOR DEVELOPMENT: Hamas has released Edan Alexander, the last American hostage, after more than 580 days in captivity within the Gaza Strip. The 21-year-old dual citizen of the U.S. and Israel was abducted on October 7, 2023. Raised in Tenafly, New Jersey, Edan relocated to Israel at the age of 18 to serve in the Israel Defense Forces’ Golani Brigade. Following his liberation, former President Donald Trump expressed congratulations on Truth Social, commending his family and loved ones.
WATCH: Yael Alexander, Edan’s mother, spoke with her son for the first time since his release. The emotional reunion comes after nearly 600 days of uncertainty and fear. Click here to watch the footage.
CAMPUS PROTESTS UNDER FIRE: In a significant move, a Democratic governor in a pivotal swing state has enacted legislation that prohibits encampments on public university campuses. This decision emerges as protests continue to proliferate across educational institutions in the United States. Individuals setting up encampments could face financial liabilities for any damages incurred, and trespassing charges could apply to those who refuse to vacate.
HOLDING HARVARD ACCOUNTABLE: The Trump administration’s recent announcement to halt future grant funding for Harvard University unless the institution adheres to specific demands has garnered a mixed response. Education Secretary Linda McMahon has criticized Harvard’s actions in a letter to President Alan Garber, accusing the university of a persistent pattern of violating federal law. This stance reflects a broader concern regarding universities’ handling of political and social issues.
CONTROVERSIAL FLAG FLIGHT: Officials from a city on the East Coast confirmed their decision to allow the Palestinian flag to be flown at City Hall, emphasizing that this display does not replace any American flags. City leaders noted that multiple flags have been raised at this government building in the past, underlining the commitment to diversity.
GUEST OP-ED: Sylvia Cunio, a mother whose two sons remain captive under Hamas, issued a heartfelt appeal for their safe return. She stated, “The return of hostages is not a matter of politics or military strategy – it is a moral obligation.” Cunio emphasized the urgent need for the lives of her sons, David and Ariel, and all hostages, highlighting that every day spent in captivity decreases their chances for survival.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK: “Every night, I have the same dream. I see my sons in a hospital bed. I run to them, embracing them, breathing in their scent, kissing them for all they’ve endured,” said Sylvia Cunio, expressing the profound anguish of families enduring the hardships of hostage situations.
