President Donald Trump told Fox News in an exclusive interview Monday that he credits the U.S. strikes on key Iranian nuclear sites for making the Israel-Hamas peace deal possible.

Trump made the comments to Fox News’ Trey Yingst in Israel after Hamas freed the remaining 20 living Israeli hostages from captivity in Gaza. 

“I think it really started when we took out the nuclear capability of Iran,” Trump said, referring to the June strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites. “When you look at what they had, you couldn’t have made this deal with someone sitting over there with a nuclear weapon over your head.”

Yingst said Trump emphasized that the Gaza deal is only the beginning of what he hopes will become a wider movement toward peace across the Middle East.

TRUMP WRITES MESSAGE TO ISRAELIS AFTER ALL LIVING HOSTAGES RELEASED BY HAMAS

Trump arrived in Israel Monday morning to coincide with the prisoner exchange between Israel and Hamas.

The 20 living Israeli hostages were released as part of an agreement intended to end the conflict that began with the deadly Oct. 7, 2023, attack by Hamas terrorists. Hamas terrorists killed more than 1,200 people and took around 240 hostages in southern Israel during the attack. Two years of fighting in Gaza followed, which resulted in tens of thousands estimated dead.

In exchange for the remaining living hostages, Israel began releasing around 2,000 Palestinian detainees, including approximately 250 identified as terrorists.

President Donald Trump thanked Israeli lawmakers for their enthusiastic welcome in the Knesset on Monday as the nation celebrated the release of all 20 living hostages from Hamas captivity.

“After two harrowing years in darkness and captivity, 20 courageous hostages are returning to the glorious embrace of their families,” Trump said. “Twenty-eight more precious loved ones are coming home at last to rest in this sacred soil for all of time. And after so many years of unceasing war and endless danger, today the skies are calm, the guns are silent, the sirens are still, and the sun rises on a Holy Land that is finally at peace.”

The president’s comments came as reports emerged that only four of the 28 bodies held in Gaza are expected to be returned on Monday, which could risk the stability of the ceasefire and its ability to progress to the second phase, which would see the disarmament of Hamas and the further withdrawal of Israeli forces. 

“This is not only the end of a war. This is the end of an age of terror and death, the beginning of the age of faith and hope and of God,” Trump said. 

HAMAS ACCEPTS TRUMP PEACE PLAN ENDING 2 YEARS OF WAR IN GAZA, RETURNING HOSTAGES

TRUMP UNVEILS 20-POINT PLAN TO SECURE PEACE IN GAZA, INCLUDING GRANTING SOME HAMAS MEMBERS ‘AMNESTY’

Trump used his speech at the Knesset to tell Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog, to pardon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“Hey, I have an idea, Mr. President – why don’t you give him a pardon?” Trump said, prompting a standing ovation from many in the forum. 

Netanyahu was indicted in 2019 on charges that included bribery, fraud and a breach of trust, though he has denied the accusations. 

It is unclear if the president would agree to such a move, or if the majority of the Israeli parliament would support the decision given the prime minister’s previously waning support as the war continued and hostages remained in captivity for more than two years. 

Trump, during his speech, emphasized his support for Israel as the hostages continue to be returned and said, “Please know that America joins you in those two everlasting vows. Never forget and never again,” Trump said.

“As we celebrate today, let us remember how this nightmare of depravity and death all began two years ago, on the eve of the Simchat Torah holiday, thousands of innocent Israeli civilians were attacked by terrorists in one of the most evil and heinous desecration of innocent life the world has ever seen,” he added. 

Trump described the ceasefire with Hamas “as a very exciting time for Israel and for the entire Middle East” and said “the forces of chaos, terror and ruin that have plagued the region for decades now stand weakened, isolated, and totally defeated.”

Trump, who is also set to depart for Egypt on Monday, suggested a peace deal with Iran could be next as he looks to enfold more Middle Eastern nations into the Abraham Accords, which saw the normalization of relations with several Arab nations during his first term.

The president thanked Netanyahu for “having the courage” to end the war with Hamas, and in turn seize the opportunity to make Israel stronger and stabilize relations in the Middle East.

Trump received a warm welcome from the Israeli Knesset, with the body declaring him “the greatest friend Israel ever had in the White House.” Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana vowed to rally with House Speaker Mike Johnson and other legislative leaders across the globe to submit Trump’s candidacy for Nobel Peace Prize in 2026.

“You, President Trump, are a colossus who will be enshrined in the pantheon of history. Thousands of years from now the Jewish people will remember you. We are a nation that remembers,” Ohana said, comparing Trump to Cyrus the Great, who conquered Babylon in 539 B.C. and allowed the Jewish people to return to their homeland.

Ohana hailed Trump’s efforts to rescue hostages held by Hamas as well as combat Iran’s nuclear program and influence across the Middle East. He also praised Trump for moving the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem in 2018.

“Donald Trump is the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House. No American president has ever done more for Israel than this one, and as I said in Washington, it ain’t even close,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said.

Netanyahu also nominated Trump to receive the Israel Prize, Israel’s highest honor. Trump would be the first non-Israeli citizen to receive the award.

In his address to the Israeli parliament on Monday, President Donald Trump called for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be pardoned from his fraud and bribery charges.

Trump, who spoke for over an hour, joked with Netanyahu and said he wasn’t the “easiest” man to work with and suggested he could be “a little nicer” now that the war is over, before turning to Israeli President Isaac Herzog to issue his suggestion.

“Hey, I have an idea, Mr. President – why don’t you give him a pardon?” Trump said, prompting a standing ovation from many in the Knesset.

TRUMP HERALDS ‘GOLDEN AGE OF THE MIDDLE EAST’ IN ADDRESS TO ISRAELI KNESSET HOURS AFTER HOSTAGES COME HOME

Netanyahu was indicted in 2019 on charges that included bribery, fraud and a breach of trust, though he has denied the accusations. 

Trump appeared to wade into Israel’s tumultuous political arena on Monday when he said he would “always” support Jerusalem unless “somebody that’s really stupid gets into office and wants to do really bad things.”

“We don’t think we’re going to have that happen,” Trump added before throwing his support behind Netanyahu and Speaker of the Knesset, Amir Ohana, who is a key figure in the prime minister’s flagging coalition.

“There’s only one prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, who’s able to stand up. And he’s not easy – I want to tell you – he’s not the easiest guy to deal with, but that’s what makes him great,” Trump said. 

But just moments prior, Trump appeared to suggest he also got along well with one of Netanyahu’s chief rivals, Opposition leader Yair Lapid, when he drew laughs by saying, “He’s a very nice opposition leader.”

“He’s a nice man, Bibi,” Trump said. “Now, you can be a little bit nicer because you’re not at war anymore, Bibi.”

EXCLUSIVE: ISRAELI AMBASSADOR SAYS NO PEACE IN GAZA UNLESS HAMAS HANDS OVER ALL 48 HOSTAGES, DISARMS

Netanyahu’s political future remains unclear after he saw a significant drop in public support over his military strategy in the Gaza Strip and the more than two years it took to recover the hostages, some of whom remain in Gaza as the bodies of many of the deceased have yet to be returned. 

The prime minister’s coalition also lost its majority in parliament earlier this year – drawing questions over whether an early election could be called.

Whether the return of the 20 living hostages on Monday will be enough to win back public support or prompt Netanyahu’s political rivals to agree to drop the 2019 charges remains unclear.

There appears to be at least some lingering frustration over Netanyahu’s handling of the war in Gaza as two left-wing members of parliament, Aymen Odeh and Ofer Cassif – both of whom are a part of Israel’s opposition bloc – were expelled from the chamber for causing an apparent disturbance at the beginning of Trump’s address.

The officials held signs that read “Genocide” and “Recognize Palestine.”

But it is unclear how widely this is felt among the left in Israel as Lapid, leader of the opposition, had countered these claims during his comments ahead of Trump’s address when he said, “The truth is, there was no genocide, no intentional starvation.”

The Knesset Speaker had warned that swift action would be taken if anyone disrupted the session. 

Trump joked at the speed of which the members were removed and said, “That was very efficient.”

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev warned that if the U.S. supplies Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles, that “could end badly for everyone … most of all, for Trump himself,” according to a Google translation of his Russian-language Telegram post.

“It’s been said a hundred times, in a manner understandable even to the star-spangled man, that it’s impossible to distinguish a nuclear Tomahawk missile from a conventional one in flight,” Russian Security Council Deputy Chair Medvedev noted.

Vance interview cut off by ABC’s Stephanopoulos after tense exchange over Homan

Vice President JD Vance clashed with ABC News host George Stephanopoulos on Sunday as the vice president denied border czar Tom Homan accepted a bribe and accused the ABC host of losing credibility, leading the interview to abruptly end.

Stephanopoulos pressed Vance repeatedly on whether Homan accepted money and said Homan was “recorded on an audiotape in September 2024, an FBI surveillance tape, accepting $50,000 in cash.” 

MSNBC reported in September that Homan allegedly took $50,000 in cash in September 2024 from undercover FBI agents he believed were business executives after suggesting he could help them secure government contracts with a second Trump administration. The outlet reported that the FBI said the investigation into Homan closed and the White House said at the time that Homan never even accepted the money in the first place, and said that President Donald Trump did not ask the Justice Department to shutter the probe. 

“I don’t know what tape you’re referring to, George. I saw media reports that Tom Homan accepted a bribe. There’s no evidence of that. And here’s why fewer and fewer people watch your program and why you’re losing credibility,” Vance said. “Because you’re talking for now, five minutes with the vice president of the United States about this story regarding Tom Homan, a story that I’ve read about, but I don’t even know the video that you’re talking about.”

TOM HOMAN CALLS OUT ‘MORNING JOE’ HOST FOR ACCUSING ICE AGENTS OF DISAPPEARING PEOPLE

Vance said they should focus on “real issues” and told Stephanopoulos he was “going down some weird left-wing rabbit hole, where the facts clearly show that Tom Homan didn’t engage in any criminal wrongdoing.”

“It’s not a weird left-wing rabbit hole. I didn’t insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50,000, as was heard on an audiotape recorded by the FBI in September 2024, and you did not answer the question,” Stephanopoulos responded before ending the interview. “Thank you for your time this morning.”

Vance tried to respond again, but the ABC News host moved on. 

VANCE TURNS TABLES ON MEDIA ASKING IF TRUMP IS COVERING FOR ‘PEDOPHILES,’ SAYS PRESS NEVER ASKED PRIOR ADMINS

The vice president posted on X after the interview and said Stephanopoulos didn’t care about other news, including the Middle East peace deal and the shutdown. 

“George S doesn’t care about that. He’s here to focus on the real story: a fake scandal involving Tom Homan,” Vance wrote.

ABC News did not immediately return a request for comment. 

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed the allegations in September. 

“Mr. Homan never took the $50,000 that you’re referring to, so you should get your facts straight, number one,” Leavitt told reporters in September. “Number two, this was another example of the weaponization of the Biden Department of Justice against one of President Trump’s strongest and most vocal supporters in the midst of a presidential campaign, you had FBI agents going undercover to try and entrap one of the president’s top allies and supporters, someone who they knew very well would be taking a government position months later, Mr. Homan did absolutely nothing wrong.” 

Previously, Trump administration officials have refrained from saying Homan never accepted the cash, and instead, said that there was no evidence of illegal activity.

NYC politician runs for terror-linked agency hours before hostage release

New York City Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani spent Sunday night raising money for a United Nations organization that employed Oct. 7 terrorists, just hours before the final living Israeli hostages were released from Hamas captivity.

Mamdani ran in the NYC Gaza 5K, a fundraiser for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). The organization was infamously found to have employed terrorists in Gaza who participated in the Oct. 7 massacre in Israel. Mamdani’s campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.

“This morning I ran the NYC Gaza 5K in Prospect Park for the third time, alongside the Harlem Run Club, to raise money for UNRWA USA, which delivers critical humanitarian aid and services to Palestinians in Gaza,” Mamdani wrote on social media.

“I hope you’ll join me in donating,” he added.

IDF KILLS HAMAS TERRORIST IT SAYS WORKED FOR UNRWA, LED CHARGE ON REIM BOMB SHELTER MASSACRE

Mamdani included a donation link for his followers to send money to UNRWA.

The State Department issued a devastating report to Congress on UNRWA in August, determining that the agency needs to be abolished and is beyond reform. UNRWA’s stated goal is to provide aid to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, but the report argues the organization “is irredeemably compromised”

According to the State Department document, the Trump administration demanded in March 2025 that UNRWA “return all remaining unspent balances of U.S. funding in its accounts.” The UNRWA Washington office said it would do so, “but has not yet completed the action.” In May, the State Department said it is working “to cease U.S. participation in all working-level UNRWA bodies” at the United Nations.

UN ACCUSED OF DOWNPLAYING HAMAS TERRORISTS’ USE OF GAZA HOSPITALS AS NEW REPORT IGNORES IMPORTANT DETAILS

The U.S. government pulled the plug on UNRWA funding in January 2024 and has not resumed aid to the agency. Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s move calling for the wholesale dissolution of UNRWA added a new layer of pressure on the U.N. and key donor nations to UNRWA, such as Japan and Germany, to reassess the viability of UNRWA.

The Biden administration had given UNRWA $1 billion in U.S. taxpayer funding since 2021 before the freeze in 2024 went into effect.

Former Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant said in February 2024 that dozens of individuals employed by UNRWA were directly involved in the atrocities carried out against Israeli civilians on Oct. 7, 2023.

Israeli Ambassador to the U.N. Danny Danon told the U.N. in January that UNRWA must close its operations in Jerusalem.

In August 2024, Fox News Digital reported the U.N. fired nine employees from UNRWA who likely participated in the Hamas slaughter of 1,200 people, including more than 30 Americans, on Oct. 7 in southern Israel.

Columbus’ tiny ships reveal stunning truth about American history critics won’t admit

Earlier this year I visited Huelva, Spain, which is very close to the border with Portugal. It is where Christopher Columbus launched the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria on his journey to America. There is a waterfront exhibition with life-size replicas of the three ships built in 1992 for Columbus’ 500th anniversary. And there is a museum next to the boats commemorating Columbus’ life.

I walked in the ships, and they were quite small. The Santa Maria was the largest ship at about 70 feet long. It is remarkable to see the size of the ships and realize what it would be like to launch in one from the southern coast of Spain and head out across the Atlantic Ocean.

Imagine what it would be like 533 years ago to get on a ship with hopefully enough food and water to get you all the way across the Atlantic. It’s hard to believe anyone would be willing to put themselves through the uncertainty and deprivation of sailing in a tiny boat on the vast ocean.

And then there is the actual navigation of such a journey. Columbus had no sextant. He didn’t have some of the most basic navigational tools seafarers have used for hundreds of years. He literally relied on the sun and the moon to pilot his ship.

WHAT AMERICA DESPERATELY NEEDS IS INSPIRATIONAL LEADERS – HERE’S HOW TO BE ONE

Columbus’ goal was to get to Asia, but his original calculations were incorrect. So instead, after five weeks at sea, on Oct. 12, 1492, he landed in what is now the Bahamas. It’s an absolutely amazing story of exploration and adventure. He never would have accomplished such a feat if he hadn’t had the courage to try.

Today we celebrate that courage. 

Columbus is remembered for his epic journey that was a key turning point in world history – connecting Europe with the Americas. He was from Genoa, Italy, so Italian Americans are particularly proud to celebrate his legacy. The District of Columbia, the seat of our government, is named after him. Columbia University, an Ivy League college, as well as many cities and towns in America, are named in his honor.

THE SECRET BEHIND APOLLO 8’S BROADCAST IS A FAVORITE STORY OF CHRISTIAN COURAGE

In more recent times there has been controversy surrounding Columbus. Some believe celebrating him glorifies the legacy of colonization, including the mistreatment, displacement and deaths of Indigenous peoples. This debate has led to the rise of Indigenous Peoples’ Day, which aims to honor native cultures, histories and contributions. 

But our focus is on his courage. The courage to discover, to explore, to not settle in life. The courage to take risks and do what is demanding. The courage that is necessary to succeed.

What can stand in the way is discouragement. To be discouraged means literally a loss of courage. Have you lost your courage? Do you need to get your courage back? Do you have anxiety, fear, worry? You overcome it by practicing courage.

REMEMBERING THE COURAGE OF CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS

Joshua 1:9 tells us, “I’ve commanded you to be strong and courageous. Don’t ever be afraid or discouraged. I am the Lord your God and I will be there to help you wherever you go.” You can be courageous because God is with you to help.

You can run away, or you can run after it. You can run to your destiny, chase after the God-ordained opportunities in your life, or you can shrink back. But less demanding means less fulfilling.

Have the courage to pursue it. Have the courage to not be stagnant, to not settle for where you are, to not give up on your future.

Maybe it’s a big dream you need to pursue. Maybe it’s an addiction, a life-controlling habit you need to break. Maybe it’s your mindset, the negative self-talk and nagging self-doubt you must change. Maybe it’s doing the right thing, even though it will be hard. Have the courage and just do it.

Stop giving the lies permission to stay. Stop rehearsing the criticism. Stop accepting defeat before you’ve even tried. Make room for courage. For the courageous voice in you to say, “I can do it.”

You might stumble or fall along the way, but doing nothing guarantees you never move forward. Courage isn’t the absence of fear; it’s choosing to act in spite of it. The real risk isn’t in failing, it’s in never trying.

Popular vitamin supplement could have unwelcome health impact, researchers warn

Vitamin D is known to be essential to many aspects of human health — but a new study suggests that taking a certain form of it can have a negative effect.

The more potent and longer-lasting form, vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is produced naturally when the body is exposed to sunlight and is also found in animal products, while vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) comes from plant or fungal sources, per the National Institutes of Health.

Researchers from the University of Surrey in the U.K. found that taking vitamin D2 can cause reduced levels of vitamin D3 in the body.

OVERLOOKED SUPPLEMENT COULD SLOW AGING AND BOOST BRAIN AND HEART HEALTH, EXPERT SAYS

They made this determination by analyzing 11 randomized controlled trials including 655 adults, which showed that people taking vitamin D2 supplements had less vitamin D3 than those who did not take D2, according to a university press release.

The findings of the study — conducted along with the John Innes Centre and the Quadram Institute Bioscience in Norwich, England — were published in the journal Nutrition Reviews.

“Vitamin D supplements are important, especially between October and March, when our bodies cannot make vitamin D from sunlight in the U.K.,” lead researcher Emily Brown, a Ph.D. research fellow from the University of Surrey’s Nutrition, Exercise, Chronobiology & Sleep Discipline, stated in the press release.

“However, we discovered that vitamin D2 supplements can actually decrease levels of vitamin D3 in the body, which is a previously unknown effect of taking these supplements. This study suggests that, subject to personal considerations, vitamin D3 supplements may be more beneficial for most individuals over vitamin D2.”

COMMON VITAMIN SHOWN TO SLASH SKIN CANCER RISK IN SOME GROUPS, STUDY SUGGESTS

Previous research has suggested that the two forms of vitamin D are not interchangeable. A study published in Frontiers in Immunology, also conducted by the University of Surrey, found that vitamin D3 is more effective in boosting the immune system and protecting the body from viral and bacterial diseases, the release noted.

“We have shown that vitamin D3, but not vitamin D2, appears to stimulate the type I interferon signaling system in the body – a key part of the immune system that provides a first line of defense against bacteria and viruses,” stated Professor Colin Smith, who led the above study. “Thus, a healthy vitamin D3 status may help prevent viruses and bacteria from gaining a foothold in the body.”

Professor Martin Warren, chief scientific officer at the Quadram Institute, confirmed in the release that vitamin D deficiency is a “significant public health concern,” particularly during the winter months.

“This collaborative research effort aligns well with the Quadram Institute’s mission to deliver healthier lives through food innovation to enhance the nutrient density of the food we eat,” he said. “Tackling this with the most effective form of vitamin D supplementation or fortification is of the utmost importance to the health of the nation.”

More research is needed to determine whether vitamins D2 and D3 affect the body differently — and whether that could change doctors’ medical advice on which type to take, the researchers concluded.

There were several limitations to the analysis, the study findings noted.

For example, there were only a small number of studies with many differences among them, such as their duration, the amount and timing of doses, and how results were measured. There was also the potential for biases due to incomplete reporting of details.

The results could also be affected by factors such as the amount of sunlight exposure, as well as some people taking supplements and others eating vitamin-fortified foods, the researchers noted.

Some foods containing vitamin D3 include fatty fish, egg yolks, cod liver oil and fortified dairy and animal foods, health sources confirm. Vitamin D2 can be found in mushrooms, fortified foods and some plant/fungal-based supplements.

Kansas City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes had no time for the nonsense that took place following their win against the Detroit Lions on Sunday night.

Detroit Lions defensive back Brian Branch snubbed Mahomes’ postgame handshake to start an altercation with Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster. He eventually shoved Smith-Schuster in the face, igniting a melee for a few moments before the two teams went to the locker room.

NBC’s Melissa Stark asked Mahomes what happened in the scuffle.

“I mean, we play the game in between the whistles,” Mahomes said. “They can do all the extracurricular stuff they want to do, but we play the game in between the whistles.”

It was as intense as anyone has seen Mahomes following a regular-season win. The smiles faded as Mahomes’ eyes beamed forward.
