NY Times will end its political cartoons after ‘anti-Semitic’ depiction of Netanyahu, cartoonist says
close Video Fox News Flash top headlines for June 10 Fox News Flash top headlines for June 10 are here. Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com The New York Times will no longer be publishing political cartoons following the uproar surrounding an anti-Semitic depiction of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to a political cartoonist whose work was featured in the paper. In April, The New York Times International published a cartoon featuring Netanyahu as a guide dog and wearing a Star of David around his neck being walked by President Trump seen wearing a yarmulke. After putting out a statement admitting the cartoon had "anti-Semitic tropes" and was an "error in judgment," the paper issued an apology.

Photo: Don Emmert/AFP/Getty Images Most weeks, New York Magazine writer-at-large Frank Rich speaks with contributor Alex Carp about the biggest stories in politics and culture.

Hillary Clinton finally defended her use of private email with a 20-minute news conference, which did little for those on the right set on fanning the flames of controversy to Benghazi-type levels. What’s the playbook for her now?Dianne Feinstein, essentially demanded that she speak up. Some of what Clinton said didn’t pass the smell test.

Ambassador David Friedman: Trump kept this key promise on Israel exactly 2 years ago – Unlike his predecessors
close Video Judge Jeanine's inside look at the US embassy in Jerusalem Judge Jeanine Pirro attended the historic opening of the United States embassy in Jerusalem and shares her experience. Exactly two years ago Friday, President Trump fulfilled a campaign promise his three predecessors had failed to keep: he recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and ordered the U.S. Embassy in Israel moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Our new embassy opened in Jerusalem on May 14, 2018, on Israel’s Independence Day – 70 years after Israel declared its independence from Britain, just as the United States did in 1776. This important move was long overdue. Congress passed the Jerusalem Embassy Act in 1995 by big bipartisan majorities. The bill stated that “Jerusalem should be recognized as the capital of the State of Israel” and that the U.S. Embassy should move to Jerusalem within five years.
