When my friend Rebecca in Highland Park, NJ, opened her PSE&G gas and electric bill last month,she almost fell out of her seat: It had tripled.

It’s now costing her more than $1,000 a month to keep her modest home running.

“It’s been creeping up for months, in spite of the fact that nothing about our house has changed,” she told me.“In years past, it was averaging about $300 a month.”

“I don’t know how we’re expected to absorb these new bills,”she posted on Facebook.

Her neighbor Felix Urman wondered the same as he ticked off his household costs for me.

“Property taxes are up 6.3%,” he said — on top of what had already been the nation’s highest.

Affordability and taxes, at 54% and 43% respectively, have become the defining issues in New Jersey’s tightening governor’s race.

The latest survey, released this week, showed Democratic Party nominee Mikie Sherrill leading Republican Jack Ciattarelli by just 6 percentage points.

Tuesday, ships and aircraft under the control of US Central Command fought off the largest attack on Red Sea shipping since the Israel-Hamas war started. F/A-18s from the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower teamed up with the Arleigh-Burke class destroyers USS Gravely, USS Laboon, USS Mason, and the United Kingdom’s HMS Diamond to shoot down 18 suicide drones, two anti-ship cruise missiles, and one anti-ship ballistic missile.

China has made its way into critical American cyberinfrastructure without being detected for over a year. The known targets include the water utility in Hawaii, a port on the U.S. West Coast, and an oil and gas pipeline. The goal is for China to leverage a position over the United States to create chaos, cause panic, and disrupt logistics.

Hackers tied to China’s People’s Liberation Army have gained access to more than two dozen critical systems, according to a Washington Post report. The newly revealed information provides a more complete understanding of the Volt Typhoon cybercampaign, which was initially identified by the U.S. government around a year ago.

Several entities outside the United States, including electric utilities, also have been victimized by the hackers, said the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity.

None of the intrusions affected industrial control systems that operate pumps, pistons or any critical function, or caused a disruption, U.S. officials said.

The question is whether this is an appropriate basis for the bar to investigate and sanction a member. Once again, I am in accord with the Foundation in the view of Hamas as a terrorist organization. However, the bar is not the proper forum for such controversies, in my view, and the action could make it more likely that sanctions will be used in the future against other political viewpoints.

In an op-ed for The Washington Post published on Saturday, President Joe Biden wrote:

As we strive for peace, Gaza and the West Bank should be reunited under a single governance structure, ultimately under a revitalized Palestinian Authority, as we all work toward a two-state solution. I have been emphatic with Israel’s leaders that extremist violence against Palestinians in the West Bank must stop and that those committing the violence must be held accountable.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday firmly stated that the Palestinian Authority (PA) will not have any role in governing the Gaza Strip after Hamas is eradicated. The announcement flies in the face of the Biden administration and the United Nations, both of whom have insisted that this should be the outcome after the war is concluded.

The United States is prepared to take our own steps, including issuing visa bans against extremists attacking civilians in the West Bank.

Netanyahu countered this argument by pointing out that the PA, in its current form, is incapable of governing Gaza responsibly.

Hamas released 13 Israeli hostages into Egypt on Friday, a sign that the four-day ceasefire brokered between Israel and the terror group that runs Gaza was holding.

Twelve Thai nationals were also released in a surprise additional deal that Egyptian officials said they had brokered. Thirty-nine Palestinian prisoners will be released from Israel as part of the agreement, and multiple tankers of humanitarian aid will enter the Gaza Strip.

The identities of the hostages were not yet known Friday morning Eastern time. They will head to Israel after being driven into Egypt by the International Committee of the Red Cross via the Rafah border crossing. They will immediately undergo medical and psychological evaluations, Israel’s health ministry has said.

An attempted terror attack on Rainbow Bridge at Niagara Falls today saw a car explode, causing a massive explosion at a toll checkpoint that killed the vehicle's two occupants.

All four bridges in that area of the border are now closed.
