Levine: HOW THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY TURNED ON ISRAEL

-

Famed media expert Michael Levine says the Democratic Party’s long-standing support for Israel has reached a turning point, and a July House vote put the division on public display. On July 15, 103 House Democrats voted for an amendment that would have eliminated $3.3 billion in U.S. security assistance to Israel. Ninety-eight Democrats voted against it, while 10 voted “present.” The amendment failed, but the tally exposed a party split on one of America’s closest alliances. Roll Call “For years, support for Israel was a point of bipartisan agreement,” Levine said. “Now more than half of House Democrats who took a position voted to cut its security aid. That is no longer a fringe argument. It is a roll call.” A week earlier, Rahm Emanuel, a potential 2028 Democratic presidential candidate, delivered a sharp critique of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government at Tel Aviv University and warned that Israel risked its relationship with Washington unless it changed course. reuters.co...

Famed media expert and bestselling author Michael Levine praised President Donald Trump’s plan to create an “AI Force” and appoint a national artificial intelligence czar, calling it “a smart, proactive move—both in reality and perception.” Trump compared the proposed initiative to the U.S. Space Force, although it remains unclear whether the AI Force would operate as a military branch, civilian agency, or government-wide command. “Artificial intelligence will transform national defense, business, education, medicine, communications and nearly every corner of American life,” Levine said. “The country that leads this revolution will help write the rules of the twenty-first century. America cannot afford to arrive late, confused or divided.” The announcement comes as technology leaders, researchers and lawmakers debate the breathtaking speed of AI development. Some urge a slowdown, while others demand stronger safeguards against fraud, job displacement, misinformation and national-securi...

OMAR’S ‘BLAME THE ACCOUNTANT’ ALIBI WON’T ADD UP, PR GURU WARNS

Famed media expert Michael Levine predicts Rep. Ilhan Omar’s explanation for major discrepancies in her financial disclosures will fail the public credibility test. Omar disclosed assets valued at up to $30 million on her 2024 financial form, then reported less than $100,000 in assets the following year. Her office maintains that she is not a millionaire, is uninvolved in her husband’s businesses, and relied on the accountant who prepared the documents. Levine, founder of Boundless Media USA and author of Authentic P.R. , called that defense “a communications disaster wrapped inside a credibility crisis.” “Blaming the accountant is one of Washington’s oldest and lamest escape routes,” Levine said. “The public understands a simple fact: Your name is on the form. If the numbers swing from millions to thousands, people expect serious answers—not finger-pointing.” A watchdog group has urged the House Ethics Committee to obtain Omar’s financial records after the Office of Congressional Cond...

THE SCREENSHOT THAT PULLED THE PLUG: MICHAEL LEVINE EXPLAINS MARIA BARTIROMO’S FOX EXIT Michael Levine, America’s leading media expert and founder of Boundless Media USA, says Maria Bartiromo’s departure from Fox News offers a lesson about trust, judgment, and the line between journalism and political advocacy. Fox News has described Bartiromo’s exit after more than 12 years as a “business decision,” without disclosing a reason. However, media reports, citing sources familiar with the matter, say the anchor wanted to pursue a story involving China and conspiracy theories surrounding the 2020 presidential election—a sensitive subject for Fox because of its Dominion settlement and Smartmatic litigation. According to those reports, a Fox Business executive texted producers that the proposed story could not air. Bartiromo allegedly captured a screenshot of that direction and forwarded it to White House officials. Network leaders learned of the disclosure after receiving a call from the Whi...
