Schumer's big personal lie: Politicians are infamous for bending the truth, but their lies aren't often complete fiction made up out of whole cloth. Recently, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer was blasted across social media for his repeated references to "the Baileys," whom he describes as a "middle-class couple" from "a suburb on Long Island" who "bought into Reagan Republicanism in 1980." Schumer made extensive notes of the Baileys over the years, including in his book Positively American: Winning Back the Middle-Class Majority One Family at a Time. He even claims, "I have guided my political life through the Baileys." So, who are the Baileys? Well, it turns out they don't actually exist; they are simply a figment of Schumer's imagination. And "Bailey" wasn't even their original name. A former spokesman for Schumer noted that he used to ask his staff, "What would the O'Reillys think?"
 
UK, Australia, and Canadian PMs recognize "Palestine": The leftist prime ministers in Australia, Canada, and the UK recognized Palestinian statehood on Sunday, despite Hamas still holding dozens of hostages from the October 7 terrorist attack. UK PM Kier Starmer said, "We are acting to keep alive the possibility of peace." The three nations still call for the destruction of Hamas and the end of their political power, but the alternative Palestinian government, the Palestinian Authority, has little to no power and no army of any kind. France and other nations are expected to join the recognition of "Palestine" today. Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu answered the announcement bluntly: "It will not happen." Netanyahu is expected to speak before the UN on Friday and meet with President Donald Trump next Monday.
