Van Hollen: ‘A big lie' that UN aid for Gaza has been ‘systematically' stolen by Hamas

Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) said Sunday there is no truth to claims that United Nations aid for Palestinians in Gaza has been 'systematically' stolen by Hamas. 'This is a big lie, the claim that when the U.N. organizations were delivering food to Palestinians, civilians, that it was being systematically diverted to Hamas,' Van Hollen told CBS News's Margaret Brennan on 'Face the Nation.' 'I want to say loudly and clearly, this is a big lie,' the Maryland senator added. On Sunday, Trump said Hamas is stealing food that was meant for people in Gaza, saying to reporters on multiple occasions that goods are being stolen as he was pressed on the hunger crisis in the region. Trump, alongside President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen in Turnberry, Scotland, was questioned about his response to the images of starving children in Gaza. 'When I see the children and when I see, especially over the last couple of weeks people are stealing the food, they're stealing the money, they're stealing the money for the food. They're stealing weapons, they're stealing everything,' the president said. 'It's a mess, that whole place is a mess. The Gaza Strip, you know it was given many years ago so they could have peace. That didn't work out too well,' Trump continued. House Speaker Mike Johnson echoed Trump on Sunday's 'Meet the Press' on NBC News. 'This is important to note: Israel, since this war began, has supplied over 94,000 truckloads full of food. It's enough food to feed 2 million people for two years trying to get that into Gaza. But Hamas has stolen the food, a huge amount,' Johnson said. He also criticized 'the system,' calling it 'broken,' adding that beginning tomorrow, the Israeli military will open 'new channels of distribution to get it [food] to those people who are desperately in need.' Former President Obama said on Sunday that 'aid must be permitted to reach people in Gaza.' 'There is no justification for keeping food and water away from civilian families,' the former president added in a post on the social platform X on Sunday.

Democratic senator laments party's messaging problem as ratings plummet to 30-year low

Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., acknowledged that the Democratic Party had a messaging problem on Sunday when confronted with a poll that found the party had its lowest favorability rating in nearly three decades. "We have to fix this. I don't put a ton of stock into polls, especially this far away from an election, but we certainly do have a problem, and it's a messaging problem," Kelly told CNN's Jake Tapper. The Wall Street Journal released a poll on Sunday that found just 63% of voters have an unfavorable view of the Democratic Party — the highest unfavorable rating the party has received in the WSJ's poll since 1990. "It's important to get out there and talk to people about the issues that they care about," he said. Kelly explained that he has spoken to Americans in different states about the "big, beautiful bill" and how it might affect them. "So myself and my wife, Gabby, you know, sat there in front of a large group and took some questions from them and tried to explain to them, you know, what's going to happen to Medicaid, what's going to happen to food assistance through SNAP. And there were folks here that I got the sense that these programs directly are going to affect them and their family members, and they do deserve an explanation from somebody in the United States Congress," Kelly said. The WSJ poll found that just 33% of registered voters have a favorable view of the Democratic Party. Tapper also asked Kelly about the Democratic Party's official X account attempting to describe rising grocery prices under "Trump's America" using a graph dating from October 2019 to 2025. The graph claimed that "U.S. Grocery Prices Reached Record Highs in 2025" with prices "higher today than they were on July 2024" in categories such as dairy, produce and meat. However, many X users pointed out that the graph, in fact, showed prices skyrocketing in 2021 when Biden was president and only leveling off at the end of 2024 when President Donald Trump was re-elected. "So I wonder if you think Democrats have figured out their problems, both in terms of communications and also acknowledging that Biden-era inflation, for example, is one of the reasons why your party is out of power?" Tapper asked after noting that the Democratic Party had deleted the post. He agreed and said, "Yeah, I think that's fair. There was inflation during the Biden Administration. I tracked this pretty closely." Kelly said he saw the price of eggs and ground beef increase during former President Biden's administration before warning about Trump's tariff policy. "But I think what's important for the American people to know is that Donald Trump's tariff policy is very likely to increase costs. It takes some time because the supply chains stuff from coming from, you know, in some cases from all over the planet. And his trade policy for my constituents in Arizona, there are a lot of products that come across the southern border, agricultural products that create thousands and thousands of jobs, not only in Arizona, but in the state of Texas," Kelly said. Kelly said they were experiencing job loss in Arizona.
