GEORGE SOROS, THE DEMOCRAT PARTY AND THE RISE OF BLACK CRIME IN AMERICA - Chicago Thugs w/Semiautomatic Weapons Rob 10 in 30 Mins
BLACK CRIMINALS HAVE TAKEN OVER EVERY MAJOR AMERICANCAN CITY COAST TO COAST!
George Soros with his Open Society money plus the Chicago Marxist contingency of Susan Rice, Valerie Jarrett, Penny Pritzker, and Barack Obama are five people I'm inclined to group as the Biden puppet masters. Is there a pecking order among them? Does it matter? I suppose it matters to these individual megalomaniacs, but to anyone else? No. Just get that totalitarian state up and running. Maybe it will matter when all nations are under someone's thumb and one of those thumbs wants to be the one-world Big Thumb. Not to worry — I'm positive the Big Thumb will be chosen by consensus. SPRUCE FONTAINE.....NO, THE BIG THUMB WILL BE CHOSEN BY BIG WALL STREET BANKSTERS! THE VERY ONES WHO PERPETRATED THE BANKSTER REGIME OF GAMER LAWYERS BARACK OBAMA, ERIC HOLDER AND 'CREDIT CARD' JOE BIDEN!!!
Chicago Citizens Have 1 in 15 Chance of Being Shot by the Time They’re 40; 26 More Victims Over Weekend
People growing up in the city of Chicago have about a one in fifteen chances of being shot by the time they turn 40, results of a new survey suggest.
Last weekend, at least 26 people in Chicago were shot, eight fatally, including three who were wounded while standing on a sidewalk and caught in the crossfire between two vehicles. That’s up from the 20 citizens who were shot, and the four killed by gunfire, the previous weekend.
A new study finds that 6.46% (1 in 15) of Chicagoans had been shot by their 40th birthday. What’s more, half (50.0%) had witnessed a shooting by that age.
According to the results of the study of more than twenty-four hundred Chicagoans, published last Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), Blacks and Hispanics are much more likely than are Whites to be shot by the time they turn 40:
6.46% (1 in 15) of all respondents had been shot by age 40.
7.47% (1 in 13) of Black respondents had been shot.
7.05% (1 in 14) of Hispanic respondents had been shot.
3.13% (1 in 32) of White respondents had been shot by age 40 years.
The average age at the time of being shot was 17, with the odds of being shot after turning 21 dropping off drastically. Male respondents (11.40% or 1 in 8.8) are five times more likely than female respondents (2.28% or 1 in 43.8) to be shot by age 40.
“Most reports of being shot for female respondents occurred during their midteenaged years, whereas males reported being shot throughout their teenaged years and their 20s and 30s,” the study notes.
The influence of routine exposure to firearm violence may even fuel future shootings, the study warns:
“The stress from chronic exposure to firearm violence may also contribute to subsequent violence, through its impact on aggression, or even through the normalization of violence.”
The sustained stress of being exposed to gun violence can also cause physiological harm, damaging the body’s regulatory system, increasing susceptibility to disease, and accelerating the aging process.
"The long-term stress of exposure to firearm violence can contribute to everything from lower test scores for school kids to diminished life expectancy through heart disease," the study’s author, Charles Lanfear, an assistant professor at the University of Cambridge’s Institute of Criminology, told Fox 32 Chicago.
Chicago Gang Affiliates Charged in Shooting Deaths of 3 Women in Beverly Hills
Three men with Chicago gang affiliations were charged Friday in connection with the fatal shooting of three women in Beverly Hills, California, earlier this year.
Breitbart News reported the three shooting fatalities when they occurred on January 28, 2023, and noted others were injured in the attack. The number of non-fatal injured persons was originally reported at four and later updated to six.
The New York Postnoted the three fatalities were 33-year-old Iyana Hutton, 29-year-old Nenah Davis, and 26-year-old Destiny Sims. All three women were from the Chicago area and were shot will sitting in a car near the Beverly Hills’ home they rented for vacation.
On Friday police announced charges against 28-year-old Dejean Thompkins, 22-year-old Dontae Williams, and 28-year-old Daries Stanford, all three of whom are also from the Chicago area.
Thompkins and Williams were arrested in Chicago and Stanford was arrested in New York.
Thompkins is also charged in connection with a December 16, 2022, murder in North Hollywood.
In announcing the charges, LA Police Capt. Jonathan Tippet said, “This callous violent crime resulted in three murder victims and six attempted murder victims. Since this crime occurred, the Los Angeles Police Department’s Robbery/Homicide division Homicide Special Section detective shave worked tirelessly to bring these criminals to justice.”

At Least 26 Shot in Chicago During Lori Lightfoot’s Last Weekend as Mayor
At least 26 people were shot, four of them fatally, during Lori Lightfoot’s (D) last weekend as Mayor of Chicago.
Breitbart News reported at least 14 people were shot in Chicago, three of them fatally, Friday into Saturday night alone.
ABC 7 / Chicago Sun-Timesnoted the total number of shooting victims was at least 26 by Monday morning, with at least one additional shooting fatality.
That additional fatal shooting was discovered Sunday just prior to 5 p.m., when police found a man “in the 7900 block of South Marquette Avenue” with a gunshot wound to the head. He was dead at the scene.
Sunday’s fatal shooting came hours after three people were shot “while standing in the first block of West Hubbard Street.” Two of the three–a 22-year-old and a 26-year-old–were critically wounded.
Gun violence has been a consistent problem during Lori Lightfoot’s one term as mayor and unsuccessful effort at a repeat.

Chicago Thugs w/Semiautomatic Weapons Rob 10 in 30 Mins
Incoming Mayor Brandon Johnson would warn us against demonizing these thugs, urging us to remember that they don’t have anything better to do with their time because of systemic racism. And anyone who tried to resist them, if they didn’t get shot, would face the same BLM lynch mob as the brave former Marine who stood up to subway monster Jordan Neely. The cops don’t want to deal with it, so barring Batman or Paul Kersey, this is just the new normal of increasingly aggressive criminals who know there’s no justice system anymore.
Chicago police are looking for four robbers who were extremely busy on Mother’s Day, targeting 10 people in just 30 minutes.
Police said the robbers hopped out of a gray Hyundai Elantra wearing black hooded sweatshirts and black ski masks. They targeted people on sidewalks or who are parking vehicles, threaten them with semi-automatic weapons, take their stuff and take off.
Happy Fatherless Day.
Chicago, or at least its ballot harvesters and the Cook County Cemetery Voters Association voted for this. Brandon Johnson will take office on his bold “crime is the fault of lack of opportunity for the criminals” programs. More money will be dumped into social services and the teachers’ union will drink some more taxpayer blood. And crime will skyrocket which will be blamed on systemic racism and a lack of opportunity.
Meanwhile, the boys will play some more. And who can blame them? Law enforcement and morality have collapsed. The only ethos that still exists is ‘get some’ and they’re getting some.

Ohio Man Allegedly Sets Father’s Girlfriend on Fire: ‘I Don’t Know What Happened’
An Ohio man was arrested and charged with felonious assault and aggravated arson after being accused of setting his father’s girlfriend on fire.
On Thursday, neighbor Dennis Williams called 911 after spotting the 50-year-old woman laying on the ground across from his backyard. The woman was covered in burns and was missing two teeth due to an alleged beating from her boyfriend’s 23-year-old son Robbi Robinson Jr, as reported by WLWT.
Robinson allegedly mixed water and gasoline and threw it on his father’s girlfriend. She then jumped out of a second-story window of the home. Redacted body cam footage released by the Fairfield Township police shows the victim struggling to breath, the New York Postreported.
“I can’t breathe! My inhaler in the house … I can’t breathe, he knocked my teeth out,” the victim reportedly said.
According to prosecutors, the victim was airlifted to the hospital, and she is in a coma.
When police arrived on the scene, Robinson was wearing a black winter coat with the hood pulled up.
“I don’t know what happened,” Robinson said to the officer.
The officer had asked him if anyone was inside the house, and Robinson said just his stepmother. The officer informed Robinson that she had jumped out back.
“Oh, she did?” Robinson said.
Robinson is being held on a $200,000 bond.

BLACK FASCISM, HATE, VIOLENCE. ANTI-SEMITIC HOAX
7. BLM also formed a political action committee "to increase voter participation and turnout, and to endorse candidates who move us toward Black liberation."
“Of course, one of the main reasons the nation is now “divided, resentful and angry” is because race-baiting, Islamist, class warrior Barack Hussein Obama was president for eight long years." MATTHEW VADUM
The Democrat party likes to argue that Republicans are the party of white nationalism and white supremacy. That's quite an argument from the party of Nathan Bedford Forrest (D-KKK), Theodore Bilbo, Jefferson Davis, Woodrow Wilson, and Bull Connor against the party that came into existence partially due to abolitionism. It's also quite an accusation from a party that aligns openly with a racist and black nationalist hate group.
In contrast to the left's pigeon chess (knock over the pieces, call your opponent a racist, and say you have won), I can back this up to the hilt with objective evidence, not from right-wing or Republican sources, but from Black Lives Matter Global Network itself. The Republican Party needs to make this issue a central talking point in 2024 instead of throwing away yet another election with claims of election fraud and, most recently, an ad that speculates on whether Communist China will invade Taiwan and the economy will collapse. Joe Biden is in fact increasing military aid to Taiwan, and, despite the downfall of Silicon Valley Bank, whose environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risk ratings had little to do with banking, this is not 1929, and the government is making good depositors' losses while allowing the banks themselves to go under as they deserve.
Here is the ad to which I refer. Its opening is reminiscent of Orson Welles's radio broadcast of War of the Worlds and also the infamous Daisy Girl commercial from 1964. What if the ChiComs invade Taiwan? What if Martians start blasting us with heat rays and drinking our blood for sustenance? Appeal to primal emotions may get buy-in from some people, but most resent this kind of manipulation. I'm a registered Republican, and the GOP ad does not appeal to me, so I doubt that it will appeal to the swing voters who decide elections. Let's try this instead.
1. Black Lives Matter says it is black nationalist. "Second, this property has served as a safe haven to protect the leaders of our Black nationalist movement." This isn't an accusation from a conservative source, or people who don't like BLM; it's from BLM itself.
2. While black nationalists don't like Caucasians in general or Jews in particular, black and white nationalists actually collaborate to promote hatred of Jews. "Beyond [Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam], a web of white supremacists and black nationalists are linked together by online social networks that propagate anti-Semitic imagery, wild conspiracy theories about the effort of Jews to control America, and other forms of propaganda designed to foster hatred of Jews." This is not to say that white and black nationalists really like each other; their racist views would preclude that. They probably do, however, have a mutually acceptable goal of a Judenrein (Jew-free) North America with segregated "whites only" and "colored only" regions for each group. My own suggestion is for both groups to follow Theodore Roosevelt's advice for those unwilling to assimilate with our country and its values to go back where they came from. Then they will not need to look at people whose skin color differs from their own, Americans of all races will not need to look at them, and everybody will be happy.
3. The Tablet Magazine reference adds, "In comparing BDS to the boycott in South Africa during the apartheid era, black nationalist groups have found a wider audience for their transhistorical anti-Semitic hate while cloaking it in the language of normative anti-racist politics." Black Lives Matter supports the BDS movement and denies the right of Israel to exist.
4. Sullivan Israel of Santa Barbara, CA adds that BLM carried out a "pogrom," and he invoked the image of rampaging Cossacks, against Jews in his neighborhood. "On the night of May 30, while the rioters looted and burned without the intervention of the local police, they chanted an obscene message attacking the police and saying 'kill the Jews.' ... The 'protest' was organized by BLM-L.A.'s leader, Melina Abdullah, who has on numerous occasions said incredibly anti-Semitic things, as well as endorsing and defending multiple outspoken anti-Semites like Louis Farrakhan."
We have accordingly established so far that (1) BLM is black nationalist and (2) black nationalism is racist and anti-Semitic. It differs little if at all from white nationalist movements who think there should be a country, possibly carved out of the United States, for white people only and a separate reservation put aside for non-white people.
5. Black Lives Matter solicits 501(c)(3) donations via ActBlue Charities. While ActBlue says it is independent from the Democrat party, it adds, "ActBlue is not run by the official Democratic Party or any other organization. We are a mission-based organization, which is why only Democrats and progressive organizations (not Republicans) can use our tools to fundraise." This "mission-based organization" is now on record as processing donations to a black nationalist entity whose values are just as inconsistent with those of the United States as those of white nationalists or indeed anybody who thinks there should be a nation, other than the multiracial and multiethnic United States, between Canada and Mexico.
6. Black Lives Matter is still using 501(c)(3) resources to campaign openly against Donald Trump. "This is how Trump's proto-fascism has become normalized. No matter the laws the presidents [sic] breaks, no matter the communities or countries he insults, no matter the catastrophes he creates, the President has been allowed to pretend that the social peace is intact. ... Like a Nazi trying to hide a neck tatoo [sic], Trump shows his true colors whenever he shifts aimlessly from empty platitude to veiled threat." BLM and its enablers might have argued that this page no longer seeks to influence the 2020 election, but, as Trump has declared his candidacy for 2024, BLM comes across as seeking to influence a presidential election. While I can't give legal or tax advice, this comes across as problematic.
7. BLM also formed a political action committee "to increase voter participation and turnout, and to endorse candidates who move us toward Black liberation." The Internal Revenue Service says, "No, a section 501(c)(3) organization may not make a contribution to a political organization described in section 527 (such as a candidate committee, political party committee or political action committee [PAC]). Nor may such an organization establish and maintain a separate segregated fund under section 527."
The 2024 election is ours to win, but only if we stick to real issues such as not just the Democrat party's ties to racists and Jew-haters like Al Sharpton, but also squandering money we don't have on things we don't need like student loan forgiveness when our country is $32 trillion in debt. The Democrat party's efforts to force Americans to use costly and unproven renewable energy sources (I am all for economical and reliable ones), New York's ban on natural gas appliances, New York City squandering $150 million to turn a Hilton hotel into 300 units of affordable housing (that's $500,000 a unit), and similar conduct also are winners for Republicans. Unproven election fraud claims and ads full of sensationalism but short on facts are not.
Civis Americanus is the pen name of a contributor who remembers the lessons of history and wants to ensure that our country never needs to learn those lessons again the hard way. The author is remaining anonymous due to the likely prospect of being subjected to cancel culture for exposing the Big Lie behind Black Lives Matter.
The ticketing giant hated by Taylor Swift fans and everyone else who has ever tried to buy concert tickets is now under fire from Jewish activists for selling tickets to a Louis Farrakhan event in which the minister defended Adolf Hitler and predicted another Holocaust against Jews. But many of Ticketmaster's biggest critics on Capitol Hill don't seem to care.
Ticketmaster, which charges service fees on each ticket it sells, raked in money selling tickets to Farrakhan's annual Saviours' Day conference in Chicago last weekend. During his speech at the event, Farrakhan assailed the "stranglehold that Jews have on this government" and claimed "Jewish power is what has all of our people of knowledge and wisdom and talent afraid."
The event was met with crickets on Capitol Hill, with almost no one in Congress speaking out against Ticketmaster for making money off of the Farrakhan event. The reaction is a stark contrast to lawmakers' response when Ticketmaster bungled sales last year for Taylor Swift's much-anticipated concert tour. That fiasco was in the news cycle for weeks and led to a Department of Justice investigation as well as a Senate hearing. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle say Ticketmaster and its parent company, LiveNation, have a monopoly over the ticket industry, leading to price-gouging and a failure to crack down on automated scalping.
"Daily reminder that Ticketmaster is a monopoly, it’s merger with LiveNation should never have been approved, and they need to be reigned in [sic]," wrote Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) in a Twitter post in November. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R., Wash.), now the chairwoman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, sent a letter to Ticketmaster last year raising concerns about its practices, while Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.) and Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) called on the Department of Justice to investigate. None of their offices responded to a request for comment on Ticketmaster's Farrakhan sales.
Only Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.)—who also spoke out about the Taylor Swift debacle—weighed in on the Farrakhan controversy when contacted by the Washington Free Beacon.
"It is extremely concerning that Ticketmaster is choosing to use its platform to elevate and promote a well-known anti-Semite. The targeting of the Jewish people has gone on far too long and must stop," she said.
Entertainment industry leaders and Jewish groups had urged Ticketmaster to drop the Farrakhan event from its sales platform, but Ticketmaster did not waver. The Anti-Defamation League also sent a letter to Ticketmaster on Friday to "note that the Nation of Islam’s annual Saviors’ Day event regularly serves as a platform to amplify this hate and bigotry." The group said it was not calling on the company to halt ticket sales.
The event came as anti-Semitism is on the rise in the United States. Hate crimes against Jews have surged in majorcities, while celebrities like Kanye West and Kyrie Irving have promoted anti-Jewish conspiracy theories on social media. Farrakhan during his speech praised West as a "very great brother" and "genius."
"Ye broke into the fashion industry, that’s controlled by Jews," said Farrakhan. "Don’t be mad with them. They’re in every avenue that leads to power."
"Somebody has to take on the synagogue of Satan, and here we are," he said. "We cannot let them take the country."
Farrakhan criticized Jews who use the phrase "Never Again" when discussing the Holocaust.
"You can say that to men, but you can’t say that to God. Because the Bible says, behold, the day cometh that shall burn—as a what?—as an oven. And those who do wickedly, He will slay them."
"God is not unjust; when he kills you, you know you deserved it," he added.
Farrakhan also defended the Nazis by citing an argument he supposedly heard from a Jewish rabbi on TV.
"Usury is what has made [the Jews] strong. I heard a Jewish rabbi, maybe about six weeks ago, he came on television talking about Adolf Hitler," said Farrakhan. "And he said Hitler was right. He said Hitler went against usury and Hitler attacked pornography that the Jews had put on the Germans."
Farrakhan and his group, the Nation of Islam, promote numerous conspiracy theories about Jews, including that Jews control the government, the media, and global financial institutions.
Last week, a group of entertainment industry leaders sent a letter to Ticketmaster CEO Michael Rapino calling on the company to drop the sales of the Farrakhan event and citing the preacher’s long history of anti-Semitism.
BARACK OBAMA
Nickname(s): Barry O’Bummer, the Choom Gangsta, Hussein in the Membrane
Occupation: Serial memoirist, nicotine addict, property owner, Netflix producer, secret Muslim, 44th president of the United States
Background: “Born” in “Hawaii” in 1961, B. Hussein Obama moved with his mother at age six to Indonesia and ate dog meat. He returned to Hawaii years later to join the Honolulu-based “choom gang” and experiment with drugs before “enrolling” at Occidental College, followed by Columbia, followed by Harvard Law School. After publishing his first memoir at age 33, Obama worked in the Illinois state government under the tutelage of left-wing terrorist Bill Ayers before getting elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004 and immediately running for president to validate his preternatural self-regard. Mission accomplished.
Hobbies: Hanging out with celebs, drinking wine with “interesting Italians,” and complainingabout his wife’s literary success. Being wrong about politics might even be considered one of Obama’s hobbies. In 2016, for example, he backed Hillary Clinton over his own vice president. We all know how that turned out. In 2020, Obama was “enamored” with failed candidate Beto O’Rourke and feared Joe Biden would “dishonor himself” by running. He didn’t even donate to Biden’s campaign.
Hates freedom? Without question.
Why/how? Where to begin? As president Obama relished every opportunity to apologize for American exceptionalism, which he dismissively likened to “British exceptionalism” or “Greek exceptionalism.” His signature move when greeting foreign leaders was the submissive bow. He brazenly lied about whether Americans would be able to keep their doctors following the passage of Obamacare. He repeatedly expressed frustration with the fact that he was merely president of the United States, as opposed to an “emperor” or “dictator” with total authority to decide how the American people should live their lives. Apart from coddling terrorists, his signature foreign policy achievements include presiding over the death of an American ambassador in Benghazi and cozying up to the anti-American regimes in Iran and Cuba.
Claim(s) to shame: Generally speaking, Obama is a pathological narcissist who journalists lustily admired as president because he reminded them so much of themselves and satisfied their overwhelming desire to publicly demonstrate opposition to racism and other bad things. He resented the American people for constantly letting him down, and behaved as though the office of the presidency was beneath him. In March 2014, for example, Obama refused to let Russia’s impending annexation of Crimea spoil his vacation plans. “I needed this,” he told former NBA star Alonzo Mourning and other guests at the Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo. “I needed the golf. I needed to laugh.”
Fun fact(s): Obama is the first former president since Dwight Eisenhower, commander of the D-Day invasion, to compose a multi-volume memoir about his time in office. During the 2012 election, the Choom Gangsta voted for himself at precisely 4:20 p.m.
What’s next? Becoming the first ex-president billionaire, finishing his third memoir, and eventually publishing a 900-page novel that reviewers will unanimously praise as “Holden Caulfield meets Ta-Nehisi Coates … an intellectual call to arms,” because they’ll be too gutless to admit it’s rather tedious and overwrought.
The Top Ten Jew-Hating Professors in America
American universities: a breeding ground for Jew-hatred.
A dire epidemic of Jew hatred is emanating from our college campuses, infecting our larger society and culture. Nearly every day brings a new report of anti-Semitic campus hate crimes. Jewish religious symbols such as menorahs and mezuzot are desecrated, swastikas and comments like “Hitler was right,” and “F—k Israel” are scrawled on residence hall doors and classroom buildings. Jewish fraternities and campus Hillel buildings are repeatedly targeted with anti-Jewish slurs.
A 2023 report from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) found a 41% increase in antisemitic incidents on American campuses in 2022, as compared to the also horrendous 36% increase in the U.S. at large. Another joint study undertaken by the ADL and Hillel in 2021 found that nearly a third of college Jewish students reported having personally experienced anti-Semitism on campus. Of those who experienced anti-Semitism, 79% reported experiencing it repeatedly. “Their concern about antisemitism can impede their ability to participate in classes, join clubs, and display their Jewish identity proudly,” the study’s authors concluded.
As David Horowitz wrote recently, “Our premier universities have in their liberal arts programs become one-party states ruled by ignorance and bigotry, and thus breeding grounds for civic and racial hatreds and lawlessness.” Among the many insidious ways in which our universities have poisoned American society and public life, Jew hatred looms large among them.
Prestigious academic organizations including the American Studies Association and the Middle East Studies Association, among others, have passed measures endorsing an academic boycott of Israeli colleges and universities—a form of the genocidal Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement that aims to isolate and annihilate the Jewish state.
Instead of using their positions to combat this Jew hatred, many faculty at prestigious universities across America instead deliberately fan its flames. They use the official resources of the University, both financial and academic, to promote terrorist propaganda lies accusing Jews and Israelis of being “colonial settlers” and imperialist aggressors. They publish articles and academic works spreading ancient tropes of Jewish blood libel or seeking to obscure the Jews’ historical connection to the land of Israel. They abuse their positions of authority over students in the classroom to deliver diatribes characterizing Israel as an inhumane aggressor and the Palestinians as its innocent victims. They invite extremist, terrorist-supporting speakers to campus to speak at official university functions or as guest lecturers in class.
The ten professors profiled in this report as the “Top Ten Jew-Hating Professors in America” have done all this and more. Some are employed by public universities, some by private educational institutions, but every school among them receives federal monies in one form or another and is thus bound by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal aid. In an executive order issued in 2019, then-president Donald Trump directed federal agencies to enforce this law against institutions that discriminated against Jews, since Judaism is both a religion and a nationality/race. Despite this clear mandate, American universities have continued to flout the law and harbor academics who perpetrate blatant Jew hatred upon the student population.
We call on the universities implicated in this report to put an immediate end to the Jew hatred infecting their campuses and to take action against faculty who continue to promulgate anti-Semitism on campus, creating an unsafe environment for Jewish students. If they should fail to do so, we urge Congress to withhold all federal funding until they eliminate this cancer in their midst.

#1: Rabab Abdulhadi Associate Professor of Ethnic Studies/Race and Resistance Studies Senior Scholar of the Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative San Francisco State University
On a campus already known for extremists and anti-Semites, Professor Rabab Abdulhadi serves as the public face of SFSU’s Jew hatred. To say that Abdulhadi is notorious is an understatement. She is a rabidly anti-Semitic professor of Ethnic Studies who also heads SFSU’s Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative (AMED), an academic program which flouts its anti-Semitism by openly declaring Zionism to be racism and Israel to be the occupier of Palestine. AMED is known for sponsoring events which feature posters reading, “My Heroes Have Always Killed Colonizers,” referring to Israel’s Jews.
Abdulhadi has glorified anti-Israel terrorism in public talks. A letter sent by a coalition of concerned Jewish groups to SFSU President Leslie Wong in 2014 describes in chilling detail how an Ethnic Studies Department event organized by Abdulhadi featured “wild inaccuracies, monstrous distortions, and blatant lies — all intended to demonize and delegitimize the Jewish state and promote a boycott that would hasten its demise.”
Professor Abdulhadi’s husband, Jaime Veve, a union activist, also spoke at the event to exalt anti-Semitic terrorists and murderers. The letter to President Wong describes how Veve “insisted that Palestinians who had injured or murdered Jews were not terrorists but rather ‘heroes or heroines’ who had ‘committed political acts of defiance and resistance,’ and he justified Palestinian terrorism by calling it ‘the cry of a baby calling for the attention of the world.’”
During her tenure at SFSU, Abdulhadi has sought to build relationships with anti-Israel terrorists. While attending a university-sponsored trip to Israel in 2014, she met with anti-Israel terrorists Leila Khaled and Sheikh Raed Salah. Abdulhadi has praised Khaled, a notorious airplane hijacker, as “an icon in liberation movements and…an icon for women’s liberation.” Salah served a prison sentence in Israel for aiding the terrorist group Hamas. He has also been charged for incitement to violence for giving a public speech in which he accused Jews of using the blood of Palestinian children to bake their bread. Despite this, Abdulhadi has insisted that he does not have terrorist ties.
In September 2020, Abdulhadi and AMED held an event featuring Khaled. Abdulhadi planned to stream the event on Zoom, but the platform canceled its coverage citing Khaled’s terrorist record.
Abdulhadi also attempted to open a formal collaboration between SFSU and An-Najah National University in Nablus, Palestine. An-Najah University has been described by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) as “known for its advocacy of anti-Israel violence and its recruitment of Palestinian college students into terrorist groups.”
The notorious professor has not hesitated to use her privileged position as a professor at SFSU to promote her anti-Israel agenda. Abdulhadi is a founding member of the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI), and also supports the wider Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel, an anti-Semitic, Hamas-funded campaign to isolate and weaken the Jewish state. She frequently promotes BDS at university-sponsored events and forums.
In March 2019, she shared a live video and statement on the official Facebook page for the Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative (AMED). The statement demonized Israel and invoked anti-Semitic conspiracy tropes by accusing the SFSU administration of “collaborat[ing] with the Zionist designs to silence us… staff, faculty and community who view Israel (as I do) as a colonial, racist and occupying power…” and labeled the administration’s conduct as “the weaponizing of free speech in the service of Nazis, Zionists and other white supremacists…” In July 2019, she shared an image of a large banner exhorting “Zionism = Racism, Silence = Death, Palestine is a Queer Issue – Boycott! Divest! Sanction!”
Abdulhadi has repeatedly propagated anti-Semitic tropes accusing Jews of conspiring to orchestrate world affairs and of possessing dual loyalties—a slur implying that Jews have more loyalty to Israel than to America or other nations. In September 2020, the professor said on Facebook: “I think we need to go to [then U.S. vice presidential candidate] Kamala Harris and say to her: ‘…It’s not okay that some of our representatives actually have dual Israeli-U.S. passport. That’s not okay! That’s not okay!…”
In a February, 2019 interview with Arab Talk, Abdulhadi denigrated pro-Israel groups in America, saying [00:07:09]: “These groups are bullies…they push around in Congress and they bribe them, and they give them money, they twist their arms and so on, there are used to basically silencing everybody and crushing everybody.”
While Abdulhadi uses the public resources of San Francisco State to promote her Jew hatred, she is notably less tolerant toward pro-Israel views. When SFSU President Leslie Wong was forced to clarify that he welcomes Zionists at the University, Abdulhadi responded by equating Zionists with the KKK: “I’m waiting for him to say, white supremacists is welcome, KKK is welcome, David Horowitz is welcome, Richard Spenser is welcome, Neo-Nazis are welcome, homophobes are welcome, misogynists are welcome, why stop only at Zionists? Welcome them all. I mean bring the…whole club. Bring everybody who is right wing and racist, bring them to campus, why only stop at Zionists.”
Nor is her promotion of Jew hatred limited in scope to SFSU’s campus. In a guest lecture in a UCLA anthropology class in the Spring of 2019, Abdulhadi equated Zionism with “white supremacy,” refusing to back down even when a Jewish student tearfully attempted to counter her vitriol.
Abdulhadi has also dedicated herself to encouraging the next generation of Jew haters. For several years she served as faculty advisor to SFSU’s chapter of the General Union of Palestinian Students (GUPS), an SJP surrogate group. During her tenure as faculty advisor, organization president Mohammad G. Hammad was exposed as having written a number of threateningsocial media posts describing his wish to attack students, teachers and Israeli soldiers and to ally himself with anti-Israel terrorists including the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). Hammad’s posts included a photo of himself holding a large knife with the caption, “I seriously cannot get over how much I love this blade. It is the sharpest thing I own and cuts through everything like butter and just holding it makes me want to stab an Israeli soldier…” Hammad was investigated for terrorism by the FBI.
Despite her atrocious record, Abdulhadi is still being lauded as a leader in her field. In January 2023, the Middle East Studies Association (MESA) awarded its 2022 Jere L. Bacharach Service Award to Abdulhadi—a dubious honor given MESA’s own record of anti-Semitism and extreme hostility toward Israel. Professor Abdulhadi exemplifies the worst of Jew hatred in academia and deserves her place atop the list of Jew-hating professors.
UC-Berkeley Professor Hatem Bazian has a notorious record of promulgating Jew hatred, dating back to his days as a student at San Francisco State University where he served as president of the General Union of Palestinian Students, an extremist anti-Israel group that fomented a virulent anti-Semitism on campus. In 2001, while a graduate student at UC-Berkeley, Bazian co-founded the Hamas front group Students for Justice in Palestine to support the Second Palestinian Intifada. The Second Intifada introduced suicide bombing into the attacks on Israel’s citizens in September 2000.
In the two decades since its founding, chapters of SJP have proliferated across the nation, and are now active on approximately 200 American college and university campuses, broadcasting Hamas propaganda and advocating the destruction of the Jewish state. Bazian also founded the Hamas front group American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) and serves as the chairman of its board. AMP funnels Hamas funds to SJP chapters on American campuses to aid the BDS movement to destroy Israel.
Throughout his academic career, Bazian has promoted classic anti-Semitic tropes and fostered Jew hatred. In May 2002, Bazian participated in a Middle Eastern “cultural assembly” at George Washington High School. Under his leadership, the event the was dedicated to extreme anti-Israel rhetoric including a student-sung rap song that compared Zionists to Nazis, which was accompanied by other students parading with Palestinian flags behind the performer. The high school sent out letters of apology after the event.
At a 2004 anti-war rally in San Francisco, Bazian called for an Intifada, or violent uprising, in America:
“Well, we’ve been watching [an] Intifada in Palestine, we’ve been watching an uprising in Iraq, and the question is that what are we doing? How come we don’t have an Intifada in this country? Because it seem[s] to me, that we are comfortable in where we are, watching CNN, ABC, NBC, Fox, and all these mainstream … giving us a window to the world while the world is being managed from Washington, from New York, from every other place in here in San Francisco: Chevron, Bechtel, [Carlyle?] Group, Halliburton; every one of those lying, cheating, stealing, deceiving individuals are in our country and we’re sitting here and watching the world pass by, people being bombed, and it’s about time that we have an Intifada in this country that change[s] fundamentally the political dynamics in here. And we know … they’re gonna say some Palestinian [is] being too radical. Well, you haven’t seen radicalism yet!”
In July 2017, Bazian retweeted an anti-Semitic meme which plays on classic tropes of Jewish blood libel and also compares Jews to the Nazis. The meme was originally tweeted by infamous anti-Semite Ron Hughes, whose account Bazian follows. It featured a photo of a man presumed to be Jewish, with Hasidic style curls, with the quoted statement: “MOM LOOK! I IS CHOSEN! I CAN NOW KILL, RAPE, SMUGGLE ORGANS & AND STEAL THE LAND OF PALESTINIANS *YAY* ASHKE-NAZI”
Bazian has promoted the idea of a world Jewish conspiracy, telling student protestors on one occasion to “look at the Jewish names on the school buildings” and adding “Take a look at the type of names on the buildings around campus — Haas, Zellerbach — and decide who controls this university.” He has also called the U.S. Congress “an Israeli-occupied territory” and has suggested that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) controls U.S. foreign policy.
Professor Bazian’s Jew hatred extends to his role as an instructor. He now serves as a lecturer in the Department of Ethnic Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He also founded the Center for the Study of Documentation of Islamophobia on campus in 2009. The Toronto Sun reported in 2014 that Bazian requires students enrolled in his course on “Islamophobia” to create a Twitter account and tweet weekly on Islamophobia. “I can’t help but feel this is unethical,” commented a student taking the class. “This is his agenda not mine.”
The student noted that Bazian “excludes both the Twitter account requirement AND the final project from his official syllabus”—perhaps an indication that he is trying to conceal his use of the classroom to promote Jew hatred.
The controversial professor has repeatedly defended the anti-Israel terror group Hamas, tweeting an article which disputed Hamas’s status as a terrorist organization. The article claimed that “The Europeans who fought Nazism with arms were labeled ‘terrorist’ by Hitler. Hamas is fighting against the occupation of Palestinian lands and is labeled ‘terrorist.’” Bazian also spoke at a 2018 event hosted by American Muslims for Palestine and other Hamas-linked anti-Israel groups which promoted the cause of Hamas-affiliated insurgents who participated in the so-called “Great Return March,” which in truth was an attack on Israel’s borders.
In truth, Israel does not occupy one square inch of Palestinian or Arab land. It was built on land confiscated from the Turks who are neither Arabs nor Palestinians, and given to the Jews by the United Nations in 1948. The Arabs who were given 80% of the so-called Palestine Mandate promptly attacked the new Jewish state with the goal of “pushing the Jews into the sea.”
These facts do not stop Bazian from delegitimizing and demonizing Israel. The professor retweeted a February 2021 tweet which asked rhetorically: “Is there a single Jewish politician of prominence in Israel who does not publiclly call for ethnic cleaning of all Palestinians?”
For his voluminous record in spreading Jew hatred and defending Israel’s terrorist enemies, Professor Bazian belongs on the list of America’s worst Jew-hating professors.
Professor Lara Sheehi’s mandatory diversity class at George Washington University comes with a non-optional quotient of Jew hatred. On the first day of the class, which students enrolled in the Professional Psychology Program at the university are required to take, Sheehi asked students to describe their cultural background and heritage. When a student identified herself as Israeli, the professor responded, “It’s not your fault you were born in Israel.”
According to a complaint filed in early 2023 with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights by the Jewish nonprofit StandWithUs, “During the Fall 2022 semester, Jewish and Israeli students in the Program’s mandatory diversity course were singled out for repeated and persistent harassment when their Jewish and Israeli identities were disparaged by faculty and peers.”
The first day of class was only the prelude to a long semester of harassment for Jewish students. Sheehi also invited Israeli academic, Dr. Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, to give an address on campus. Shalhoub-Kevorkian is a notorious anti-Semite who has invoked ancient blood libels against the Jewish people by falsely accusing Israel of testing experimental weapons on Palestinian children.
During her speech, Shalhoub-Kevorkian made comments demonizing Jews and Israelis, stating that “good deeds done by Jews and Israelis are done to mask sinister activity.” She stated that Israel’s humanitarian efforts across the globe were an attempt to “use tikkun olam [the Jewish value of bettering the world] to camouflage [Israel’s] oppressive power.” She further advocated for violent “resistance” against Israel (a euphemism for terrorism) and praised a Palestinian teenager who participated in the violent and unprovoked stabbing of an Israeli child in 2015.
Following Shalhoub’s outrageous and anti-Semitic diatribe, Jewish students in Sheehi’s class described in class why the address had made them feel “vulnerable and unsafe.” One Jewish student correctly labeled the talk as a two hour diatribe against the Jews and expressed her doubt that the university would allow any other cultural or religious minority to be thus targeted.
Instead of validating and addressing these students’ legitimate concerns, Professor Sheehi outright denied that the lecture had amounted to anti-Semitism. She claimed that “anti-Zionism is not antisemitism,” and asserted that this declaration was a “non-negotiable truth” like a “historical fact.” Incredibly, Sheehi took this line of thought even further, adding that “Zionism in and of itself indicates that Jewish folks are different. There are many people who say that Zionism in and of itself is an antisemitic movement. Why? Because it locates that Jewish folks are that much more different that they need to have a space unto themselves.”
Having failed to persuade Professor Sheehi of their concerns, Jewish students in the class tried several times to bring their concerns to the university administration and to ask for an alternative to taking her required course. The GWU administration was not responsive. Even worse, once Sheehi learned that these students had complained about her to the administration, she began spreading lies about them, calling them “combative” and racist and ultimately filing disciplinary charges against them.
“She turned the faculty against the Jewish students by spreading lies about us and our conduct, she disparaged us in front of our classmates, calling us Islamophobes,” a student from the course, speaking anonymously, told The Algemeiner. “She smeared our name in a community where success as a therapist really depends on relationships with our faculty supervisors and our colleagues. The disciplinary proceedings effectively silenced us, making it clear that you can’t be a Jew and you can’t speak up about antisemitism safely in this program.”
While Professor Sheehi’s conduct in the classroom has only recently come under scrutiny, it is clear that her Jew hatred—and likely her expression of it in the classroom—has been going on for years.
The Canary Mission, an organization dedicated to exposing anti-Semitism, has collected a number of her tweets and comments. On August 4, 2020, in response to a story about Israel offering aid to Lebanon in the wake of a deadly industrial explosion, Sheehi tweeted: “F**K YOU AND F**K YOUR ‘AID’. Destroy Zionism and commit to land back, then we’ll take you seriously you f**king genocidal f**ks. F**k you.”
In April 2022, Sheehi tweeted: “MY RAGE CAN LIGHT A THOUSAND SUNS RIGHT NOW. F**k ALL settlers. #LongLiveTheResistance #PalestineWillBeFree.” As the Canary Mission website explains, “Among Palestinians and anti-Israel activists, the term ‘resistance’ can be a euphemism for nationalistic terror. It is often used to excuse or even glorify anti-Israel and anti-Semitic violence.”
For her blatant discrimination and abuse of Jewish students and her unwarranted hostility and wishes for violence against the Jewish homeland, Professor Sheehi deserves to be named one of the top Jew-hating professors in America.
#4: Abbas Ghassemi Teaching Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of California-Merced
UC-Merced Professor Abbas Ghassemi has become notorious for his rabid Jew-hatred expressed in both English and Farsi on a now-deleted twitter account.
In June 2020, Ghassemi shared a cartoon caricature of the “Zionist Brain,” which contained a “frontal money lobe,” “world domination lobe,” a “terrorism centre,” “Holocaust Memory Center,” “Self Pity Lobe” and “compulsive lying olfactory.” A caption under the image reads: “Note: The ‘compassion for others’ gland is not shown due to its small and underdeveloped nature. Best viewed under a microscope.” Ghassemi then commented on this outrageous display of Jew-hatred, stating: “…reality bites!!!!!!”
In November of 2020, he again displayed his deranged hatred for the Jewish people, sharing a graphic titled “Jewish Victim Card” which stated, “As a Jewish person if I am accused of anything I am in no part criminally responsible. All accusations are fueled by anti-Semitism…If there is any doubt, please refer to the Holocaust.” A caption accompanying the image stated, “Here in [America] you can criticize God but not [Israel][chin-scratching emoji].”
Professor Ghassemi has also made numerous tweets promoting classic anti-Semitic tropes about Jews controlling the world media and the economy. “[T]he Zionists and IsraHell interest have embedded themselves in every component of the American system, media, banking, policy, commerce, … just a veneer of serving US interest and population – everyone pretends that is the case,” he tweeted in December, 2020. “[T]he entire system in America, government, banking, media, …. is owned and operated by the Zionists and IsraHell,” Ghassemi stated in another tweet. “Everyone pretends like this is America, land of liberty and beacon of light. Doing criminal acts under this cover is prescribed from the Zionist masters!”
Anti-Semitic blood libel tropes also feature in Ghassemi’s social media activism. In October of 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet featuring an Israeli plane that had the word “Peace” written in blood on it, alongside a Palestinian child with a knife in his back. The caption for this horrifying image read, “Death to israel.”
In November, 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet accusing Israel of “50 years of brutality” and added, “They have extorted $$$ from everyone that has been doped everywhere under every auspices including religion, Judaism and Christianity. Zionists and the thugs in IsraHell lack human decency and principles!”
In November 2020, Ghassemi marked the occasion of the presidential election by sharing a tweet stating, “Trump or Biden? Democrat or Republican? What difference does it make when American policy is determined by the Zionists? What difference does it make when the Zionists ask the United States for the colonization and arrogance of other countries? #AmericanDelusion.” The tweet was accompanied by an image of two hands representing the nations of Israel and America shaking, while spilling blood on a map of “Palestine.” Ghassemi commented on this graphic promotion of anti-Semitism: “Right on. Well said. The entire system has been Owens and operated by Zionist and IsraHELL for a very long time, no matter who is propped up in politics and every other sector!”
Ghassemi’s hatred for America and Israel is matched only by his appreciation of the Lebanese terrorist organization, Hezbollah, which has called for the annihilation of Israel and the Jewish people.
On November 4, 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet pretending to illustrate a write-in vote for Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah in the American presidential election. “Love it!!!!,” Ghassemi wrote.
When news of Ghassemi’s abhorrent and abundant Jew hatred first made headlines in late 2020, UC-Merced initially chose to respond with a statement calling his views “repugnant.” Only after outrage from Jewish groups, did the university open an inquiry into whether the professor had violated the Faculty Code of Conduct. Notably, the twitter account Ghassemi used to share the virulent anti-Semitic conduct made note of his academic title and his attached biography stated that he was a professor at UC-Merced. As of the writing of this report in April 2023, Ghassemi is still listed as a “Teaching Professor” on UC-Merced’s website and abundantly deserves to be labeled one of the most anti-Semitic professors in America.
Marc Lamont Hill has had a long and storied career in both the media and academia, but his time in both fields has been sullied by his rabid anti-Semitism and support for Israel’s terrorist adversaries.
Hill has repeatedly glorified anti-Israel terrorists and promoted terrorism against the Jewish state. The professor has enthusiastically supported convicted Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist Ali Jiddah who planted hand grenades in downtown Jerusalem which injured nine innocent people. Hill posted a photo of himself with Jiddah on Instagram, praising him as a “true revolutionary,” and assisted with a GoFundMe campaign for the terrorist, calling him “instrumental in the struggle for Palestinian liberation.”
The professor has also lauded terrorist leader Marwan Barghouti, who is currently imprisoned for participating in suicide bombings and attacks that killed five Israelis during the second Intifada. Hill posted a mural featuring Barghouti that had been painted on Israel’s security fence on Instagram with the caption, “Art as Resistance.”
So enamored is the professor of anti-Israel violence, that Hill proudly boasts a tattoo featuring a man who is masked in a keffiyeh and holding a rock, a form of violent “resistance” against the Israeli Defense Forces that can have deadly consequences.
Hill’s rabid anti-Semitism was even too extreme for leftist media giant CNN. In 2018, Hill gave a speech at the United Nations, labeling the creation of Israel a “Nakba” or “catastrophe” and calling for “a free Palestine from the river to the sea,” a phrase often used by Israel’s enemies and terrorists to promote the total destruction of the Jewish state. Hill also demonized Israel, falsely accusing the Jewish state of “ethnic cleansing” along with “hatred and imperialism, and white supremacy, and patriarchy, and homophobia”—charges that are laughable when Israel is compared to its Arab neighbors where homosexuality is a criminal offense. Following this absurd address, CNN fired Hill from his position as a contributor to the network.
Hill has flaunted his friendship with notorious anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who has labeled Jews “termites” and “satanic” and claimed that “They control everything and mostly everybody.” In August 2016, Hill posted a photo of himself with Farrakhan on Instagram, commenting “Been blessed to spend the last day with Minister Louis Farrakhan. An amazing time of learning, listening, laughing, and even head nodding to music. God is Great.”
Also in 2016, Hill shared an interview with Farrakhan on Facebook in which the Nation of Islam leader again declared the Jews to be “Satanic” and responsible for “the blood shedding and the mischief that’s going on in the world.” Farrakhan went on to predict the downfall of the Jews, stating, “Once the world sees this Synagogue of Satan as it really is and knows the players, they fear what will happen to them. The world will turn against them and that is happening now as we speak.”
It is clear from Hill’s own words and deeds that he shares Farrakhan’s views on Israel and the Jewish people. In an online panel discussion from 2021, Hill spoke positively about how “Black Lives Matter very explicitly is talking about the dismantling of a Zionist project, dismantling of a settler-colonial project and very explicitly embracing BDS.” He has repeatedly promoted the genocidal Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, and has posted videos of BDS movement founder Omar Barghouti. He has also repeated anti-Semitic blood libel tropes, claiming that Israel was founded on laws “that have been co-signed in ink but written in the blood of the innocent” and that the Jewish state is “poisoning” Palestinian water.
For propagating blatant Jew hatred and lies about the state of Israel and valorizing the terrorists who have killed innocent Israeli citizens, Professor Marc Lamont Hill deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.
#6: Jasbir Puar Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Rutgers University
Professor Jasbir Puar serves as an Associate Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Rutgers University and also directs the University’s Graduate Program for the Women’s and Gender Studies Department. Puar is notorious for promoting ancient blood libel tropes against the Jewish people, a form of anti-Semitism that dates back to the Middle Ages.
Among her ridiculous claims, Puar has accused Israelis of harvesting the organs of Palestinians, intentionally maiming them, and stunting the growth of Palestinians by limiting the availability of food and resources to them, a strategy that Puar describes as a “biopolitical tactic that seeks to render impotent any future resistance.”
In a speech at Vassar College in 2016, Puar claimed that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) was responsible for “more than 120 deaths by field assassinations of young Palestinian men, largely between the ages of 12 to 16,” without mentioning how those young men perpetrated terrorist violence, including stabbings, against Israelis. She also claimed that the nation of Israel had “mined for organs for scientific research” from the Palestinian population.
Puar’s book, TheRight to Maim, repeats these anti-Semitic and blatantly false accusations, accusing Israel of “creating injury and maintaining Palestinian populations as perpetually debilitated, and yet alive, in order to control them” and also claiming that children are a “prime target” of Israel, when in fact the IDF goes to extreme lengths to avoid injury to children and civilians despite Hamas’s use of civilians, and particularly children, as human shields.
Puar has repeatedly used her academic position to promote the Hamas-funded Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, an anti-Semitic plot to weaken and ultimately destroy the Jewish state. She also serves as an Advisory Board member of the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI), which is directed at Israeli universities and cultural institutions.
Puar has defended violent acts of terrorism against Israelis, labeling them acts of “resistance” and stating that “we need BDS as part of organized resistance and armed resistance in Palestine as well.” She has also repeatedly praised anti-Israel terrorists.
In October 2020, Puar tweeted a video of a Zoom panel which featured a taped message from convicted terrorist Leila Khaled, a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) who participated in two airplane hijackings in the 1970’s. In the video posted by Puar, Khaled promoted violence against Israel, stating: “We have used all means of struggle and we are still determined to continue using all means of struggle including armed struggle.”
While many anti-Israel advocates deceitfully insist that their demonization of Zionism is not anti-Semitic, Puar herself has conflated Zionists and Jews, referring to Jews as “Zios” in a Facebook exchange with another faculty member. That same term, “Zios,” was commonly used by former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke to refer to the Jews.
For her abhorrent record of promulgating Jew hatred and supporting anti-Israel terrorists, Professor Puar is among the worst Jew-hating professors in America.
#7: Hamid Dabashi Hagop Kevorkian Professor of Iranian Studies and Comparative Literature Columbia University
Columbia University Professor Hamid Dabashi’s academic career has been repeatedly marred by outbursts of Jew hatred and the promulgation of anti-Semitic tropes and conspiracies. In 2004, the professor’s disdain for Jews and Israel was exposed in the film Columbia Unbecoming, which was produced by Jewish students on campus, and which named Dabashi and a handful of his colleagues in the university’s Department of Middle East and Asian Languages and Cultures (MEALAC) as contributing to an atmosphere of anti-Semitism on campus.
The film cites quotes from Dabashi, including one from an article he wrote where he described Israeli Jews as suffering from “a vulgarity of character that is bone-deep and structural to the skeletal vertebrae of its culture” due to “Half a century of systematic maiming and murdering of another people.” Another student mentioned an incident in which Dabashi suddenly cancelled class in order to attend an anti-Israel rally because he felt it was his “moral duty” to do so.
In the years since these initial accusations of anti-Semitism, Dabashi has only intensified his attacks on Israel and the Jewish people. He has repeatedly promoted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories which claim that the Jews act as a “cabal” to control world affairs and consolidate their power.
In a December 2009 article, Dabashi stated that “the pro-Israeli Zionist lobby in the US banked and invested heavily in infiltrating, buying, and paying for all the major and minor corridors of power.” In an editorial published in July 2008, Dabashi wrote that “[former United States President Barack] Obama began his speech in front of AIPAC by falling right into the oldest trap that the American Zionist cabal has in its bag of tricks — dispatching its lunatic fringe to spread rumours (via emails) of facts and fantasies…” More recently, in May of 2018, Dabashi posted on Facebook that “Every dirty treacherous ugly and pernicious act happening in the world just wait for a few days and the ugly name of ‘Israel’ will pop up as a key actor in the atrocities…”
Professor Dabashi has also promulgated Jew hatred by comparing the democratic nation of Israel with the Islamic terror state ISIS and Nazi Germany, another common trope of anti-Semites.
In April of 2019, Dabashi wrote on Facebook (in a now-deleted post): “What’s the difference between ISIS and ISRAEL? … ISIS murderous thugs conquered parts of Syria and declared a ‘caliphate,’ no decent human being on planet earth recognized their armed robbery or their ‘caliphate’ – their ISRAELI counterparts meanwhile conquered parts of Syria and declared it part of their Zionist settler colony – no decent human being on planet earth recognizes their armed robbery …”
Dabashi added to this rant by again insinuating that Jews exert power over the media: “ISIS does not have a platoon of clean shaven and well coiffured [sic] columnists at the New York Times propagating the cause of the terrorist outfit as the Zionists columnists do on a regular basis.”
In August of 2014, Dabashi authored an article that compared Gaza to Auschwitz, stating that Israelis share a “sustained murderous history – from Deir Yassin in 1948 to Gaza in 2014,” adding “Is that not Zionism, the ideological foundation stone of being an Israeli?”
In a Facebook post from July 2014, Dabashi again implied that the Israelis are tantamount to Nazis. He placed images of the Warsaw Ghetto and Gaza side-by-side and commented: “Warsaw Ghetto 1943 (the site of Jewish uprising against Nazi barbarism)–Gaza 2014 (the site of Palestinian resistance against Zionist militarism).”
During the so-called “Great March of Return” in 2018, during which Palestinian terrorists repeatedly assaulted the Israel/Gaza border, Dashabi reiterated blood libel tropes depicting the Jews and Israelis as bloodthirsty monsters.
In May of 2018, Dabashi claimed, “As of Tuesday 15 May 2018 Israeli army had cold-bloodedly and in full view of the world murdered more than 100 Palestinians… during the Great March of Return protests held in Gaza’s since 30 March.” Dashabi went on to add, “The Israeli flag, the very term ‘Israel’ are now and forever synonymous with mass murderers… with massacres, with land thieves, with incremental genocide, with war crimes, with crimes against humanity.”
In another post that month, Dashabi described the conflict as “an epic battle between defenseless good and viciously armed evil — with their bare hands and their naked souls and their exposed bodies Palestinians went to face pure evil,” depicting the Israelis as “mass murderers who massacred defenseless Palestinians.”
The professor went on to praise the actions of the violent Palestinians who assaulted the border of a sovereign nation, writing, “Palestinians just taught the world a priceless lesson — a master class in their power of dignity and defiance… and in doing so they told the whole pitiful gang of Zionists from Israel to the US to Saudi Arabia they can go to hell — for Palestinians are not going anywhere from Palestine — Palestine is theirs, they are the master of their own destiny— the inhabitants of their own homeland— neither their own corrupt leadership nor those disgusting colonists occupying their country have a say in the matter.”
For his abominable promotion of anti-Semitic tropes and absurd conspiracy theories targeting Jews and Israel, Professor Hamid Dabashi deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.
#8: Nader Hashemi Associate Professor, Director of the Center for Middle East Studies University of Denver
University of Denver Professor Nader Hashemi has engaged in numerous forms of Jew hatred over the course of his academic career, which has included stints teaching at Harvard, UCLA, and Northwestern University. As director of the Center for Middle East Studies at Denver, Hashemi has a position of great influence within his field—and he has repeatedly used it to promote the terrorist organization Hamas, to whitewash violence against the Jews and Israel, and to spread anti-Semitic conspiracy theories to the world at large.
In a lecture on Hamas that was broadcast on YouTube in 2015, Hashemi claimed that Hamas’s participation is necessary to resolving the Arab-Israeli conflict. The professor claimed that after the year 2000, there were “significant attempts by the leadership of Hamas to strike out and to present a more moderate face with respect to a political resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict”—a farcical claim given the 37 suicide bombings and thousands of rocket attacks launched by Hamas in the intervening years.
During his address, Hashemi also downplayed the horrifying sentiments stated in the Hamas charter which calls for the annihilation of the Jewish people and Israel. While acknowledging the “anti-Semitic” nature of these statements, Hashemi implied that this call for murder was nevertheless irrelevant to achieving peace in Israel/Palestine and quoted a statement from Hamas leader Khaled Mashal who claimed that the Hamas charter is “a piece of history no longer relevant but cannot be changed for internal reasons.” Hashemi also seemingly dismissed the significance of this call to murder the Jews, stating fatuously, “If I had a penny every time this topic was mentioned in the context of Israel-Palestine, I would be an incredibly rich person.”
On another occasion in March of 2016, Hashemi responded to a journalist who brought up the Hamas charter’s call to murder the Jews by labeling it “pro-Israel talking points.”
Professor Hashemi has also repeatedly sought to justify the anti-Semitism of others, claiming in November 2005 that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s call that Israel should “be wiped off the map” was not due to “ancient ethnic hatreds or Muslim anti-Semitism, but primarily [due to] the trauma and enduring legacy of European colonialism and Israel’s perceived connection with this legacy.”
In November 2015, Hashemi tweeted: “Israeli soldiers kill another Palestinian in Hebron.” He linked an article about a Palestinian who had indeed been shot by Israeli soldiers after he attacked them with a knife during a riot (a fact conveniently not mentioned in his tweet).
Unsurprisingly, given his views on Hamas, Hashemi is a supporter of the genocidal Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel that aims to isolate and destroy the Jewish state. He has also promoted an academic boycott of Israeli universities on social media and has repeatedly demonized Israel on social media, referring to it as guilty of “occupation” and as solely responsible for the conflict in Gaza.
Professor Hashemi’s most controversial comments to date concern his bizarre and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories regarding the violent attack on author Salman Rushdie, who was viciously stabbed in August of 2022 while he prepared to give a public lecture at Chautauqua Institution in New York. While discussing the attack on a podcast, Hashemi suggested that the attack was most likely instigated by “someone online who claimed to be an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps supporter… [who] could have been the Mossad operative.”
Mossad is Israel’s national intelligence agency, the equivalent to the CIA in America. Hashemi further claimed that Mossad’s involvement is “much more likely” than other possible motives. Hashemi’s promotion of this completely baseless conspiracy theory is clearly rooted in Jew hatred.
While the University of Denver sought to distance itself from these bizarre claims, the Middle East Studies Association (MESA) scolded the university for “singling out a faculty member for expressing an opinion, however speculative, and by issuing a statement that suggests agreement with the vicious attacks launched against him…”
For his repeated whitewashing of Hamas and anti-Israel terrorism and his blatant promotion of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, Professor Hashemi belongs on the list of the worst Jew-hating professors.
UNC lecturer Kylie Broderick is only beginning her career in academia—she is a Ph.D. student in history at the Chapel Hill campus—but she is already notorious for her anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist views and her total lack of hesitation in injecting those views into her teaching.
For the past several years, Broderick has taught a course at Chapel Hill on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and the flagrant Jew hatred expressed by the lecturer has made national headlines.
In a series of public tweets from 2020, Broderick stated directly that she “find[s] it difficult to do role-playing games in class” because “the ‘2 sides’ of most subjects we cover are b/t colonizers/imperialists & oppressed native peoples” and “by ‘2 sides’ I mean there is only 1 legitimate side—the oppressed—versus imperialist propaganda.”
“I don’t ever want to encourage them to believe there is reason to take on good faith the oppressive ideologies of American and Western imperialism, Zionists, & autocrats,” she added.
Broderick has used every tool at her disposal to show her disdain for Israel and the Jewish people, even scheduling a quiz on Yom Kippur, the Jewish day of atonement.
The lecturer has mocked the very idea that she could restrain her biases in the classroom, stating in a November 2021 video that the UNC administration “spent a good deal of time examining my ability to be objective, whatever that means” but that she believes professors ought to “teach justice in the classroom” and that requests from UNC administrators that she meet with Jewish faculty were absurd.
Broderick views herself as an activist for the Palestinian cause and even signed a pledge promising to promote the genocidal BDS movement “in the classroom and on campus.”
Taking a page from the classic anti-Semitism playbook, Broderick also subscribes to bizarre conspiracy theories about Jews controlling the media, stating in an address that the “mobilization of the Hasbara network” and the “allegedly secular media” led to UNC officials asking her to respond to “baseless accusations.” She also alleged that UNC is “playing into a Zionist playbook,” and requires her to teach under “Israel’s rules.” She stated her belief that it is necessary to “dismantle the power that Hasbara and other pro-colonial causes have historically had over universities” so that the pro-Israel media can no longer “dominate the airwaves.”
The North Carolina Hillel chapter has also objected to Broderick’s abhorrent anti-Semitism, stating on the organization’s website that they are “very concerned” that “students who support and have a connection with Israel will be unwelcome or unsafe in [her] class” given her stated views that Israel should not exist and her refusal to “engage with people with other perspectives.”
For her single-minded determination to inject Jew hatred into her scholarship and teaching, Kylie Broderick is among the worst Jew-hating academics in America.
#10: Taurean Webb Associate Director, Center for the Study of Global Change Indiana University-Bloomington
Dr. Taurean Webb has claimed to be an advocate for a “just peace in Israel-Palestine,” but his slurs against Jews and Israel, advocacy for a Hamas front group, and deliberate minimization of the Holocaust reveal the depth of his Jew hatred.
Webb is the author of “Journey Toward Justice: A Guide for Congregational Study,” which purports to be a “comprehensive curriculum study plan” that was “specifically designed to aid predominantly Black congregations as they become more aware of the Palestinian crisis and begin to take action on behalf of Palestinian freedom and justice.” Instead, the document is a 68-page screed which uses biblical passages and precepts to frame the founding of Israel as “evil” and a “structural sin.”
Webb demonizes the Jewish state when he writes that “Israel currently occupies Palestine… Conflict arises because native Palestinians are having their lands occupied, their homes destroyed, an extremely high number of political prisoners incarcerated for years on end and are resisting in numerous ways.” He further notes that, “Within the US, however, it is common for national media to portray the Israel/Palestine conflict as ‘tiny’ Israel constantly under the threat of violence from Arab-Muslim enemies,” but undermines this accurate description, claiming it “is largely informed by the rampant domestic culture of Islamophobia and strong US political allegiances with Israel.” Webb also repeatedly refers to the Holocaust as the “European Jewish Holocaust” in order to minimize it and portray it as just one among many “holocausts” that have occurred throughout history.
While some anti-Semites target Jews indirectly through their persecution of the Jewish homeland of Israel, Webb has no compunction about naming Jews as directly promoting white supremacy and portraying them as conspiring to consolidate their power in America, a classic anti-Semitic trope. Webb commented in a YouTube interview: “It’s also a historical fact that American Jewish immigrants have always been a foundational building block for the white supremacist infrastructure in this country…We know that from the data.”
In an academic article titled: “Troubling Idols: Black-Palestinian Solidarity in U.S. Afro-Christian Spaces,” Webb claimed that “U.S. Jews constituted an important base for the U.S. white supremacist structure.” He also extended these conspiracy theories to Israel, claiming that the Jewish state [uses “the idea of ‘chosenness’ and the European Jewish Holocaust as a tactic of racial control.”
Webb repeatedly demonizes and delegitimizes Israel, classic tactics of anti-Semitism. He derides the idea that Israel is the historic ancestral land of the Jews, claiming instead that the United Nations placed the Jewish state there arbitrarily. He repeatedly slurs Israel as racist and existing on occupied land, writing, “There is nothing in the world like living under simultaneous racial caste and military occupation, a condition of historic Palestine since the mid-twentieth century.”
Dr. Webb has also repeatedly expressed his support for Palestinian militants who have committed violent terrorism against Israel. He wrote an article citing the death of Ahmed Erekat as an example of “Israeli military killings of Palestinians” and dedicated the article to the Erekat Family among others. Erekat was in fact killed by Israeli security forces, but Webb leaves out the inconvenient fact that his death occurred after he deliberately drove his car into Israeli soldiers at a checkpoint, an incident that was captured on video.
In a Facebook post made in 2018, and since deleted, Webb referred to the “Holy Land Foundation Five” as “great men” and stated “May our lives forever be changed for the better b/c of their heroism, generosity, & great sacrifice.” The “Holy Land Foundation Five” were the five individuals who were convicted in U.S. federal court for the crime of illegally funneling millions of dollars to the terrorist organization Hamas through their nonprofit group, the Holy Land Foundation.
Webb is also affiliated with the notorious Hamas front group American Muslims for Palestine and has repeatedly served as a featured speaker at the organization’s Annual Palestine Convention. AMP is headed by the notorious anti-Semite and jihad supporter, UC Berkeley professor Hatem Bazian, the co-founder of SJP. AMP’s board is dominated by former leaders of the Holy Land Foundation which was successfully prosecuted by the US government for funding Hamas.
For his blatant anti-Semitism and reprehensible praise for terrorists, Dr. Taurean Webb deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.

Who Killed Philip Haney?
Was it a “self-inflicted” gunshot, or vengeance from Islamic terrorists and their deep state allies?
February 25, 2020
Lloyd Billingsley
“On February 21, 2020 at approximately 1012 hours,” according to Amador County, California sheriff-coroner Martin A. Ryan, “deputies and detectives responded to the area of Highway 124 and Highway 16 in Plymouth to the report of a male subject on the ground with a gunshot wound. Upon their arrival, they located and identified 66-year-old Philip Haney, who was deceased and appeared to have suffered a single, self-inflicted gunshot wound. A firearm was located next to Haney and his vehicle. This investigation is active and ongoing. No further details will be released at this time.”
The establishment media ignored the story but as Michelle Mears noted in the California Globe, Haney’s relatives and friends did not believe he had killed himself. That left the question of motive, and high on the list of suspects would be Islamic terrorists.
Haney was a UC Riverside alum who worked as a field agricultural entomologist in the Middle East, where he began studying Arabic and the Quran. In a 2016 interview, Frank Gaffney asked Haney to comment on the behavior of “Islamic supremacists” and their doctrine of shariah.
“Some people have heard about ants, how they leave scent trails,” Haney said. “And other insects do it, too, so they can follow each other around and not get lost. Well, that’s essentially what shariah is. That is the universe that Muslims live inside, it forms the boundaries of the world that they live in. And their attempt to implement shariah on a global basis, from their perspective, is an attempt to establish order in this chaotic, violent world that we live in. That’s why they always say that Islam is a religion of peace. Because for them, shariah equals peace.”
The erudite Haney proved adept at tracking terrorist groups, but as he explained in The Hill on May 5, 2016, the Department of Homeland Security ordered him “to delete or modify several hundred records of individuals tied to designated Islamist terror groups like Hamas from the important federal database, the Treasury Enforcement Communications System (TECS).”
As Haney told Gaffney, “The mosque that [San Bernardino terrorist] Syed Farook attended was part of that Tablighi Jamaat network. The administration deleted sixty-seven records out of the system that I had worked on as a component of the Tablighi case.” So those still part of that terrorist network might have a motive to silence Haney, who provided a broader picture in See Something Say Nothing: A Homeland Security Officer Exposes the Government's Submission to Jihad.
Trump called out Islamic terrorism and according to Kerry Picket in the Washington Examiner, Haney was “recently in contact with top officials about returning to work for the DHS.” That would not please the DHS holdovers who went after Haney for telling the truth about Islamic terrorists.
After Haney’s testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2016, Sen. Ted Cruz asked Jeh Johnson, DHS Secretary from 2013-17, if Haney’s testimony was accurate. “I have no idea. I don’t know who Mr. Haney is,” Johnson replied. “I wouldn’t know him if he walked into the room.”
Haney said DHS investigated him nine times and revoked his security clearance. The Department of Justice charged that Haney “misused a government computer,” charges later dropped. Still, the news that Haney might be returning to DHS would not thrill POTUS 44 “wing man” Eric Holder, who has been telling reporters looking into DOJ malfeasance to “shut the hell up.”
John Durham is mounting a criminal investigation and as Sebastian Gorka explains, “the counter-coup has begun” and “the deep state beast is writing in discomfiture.” The coup clan failed to removed Trump from office and may now be convinced that Trump will be reelected. So it is entirely possible that the death of DHS whistleblower Phil Haney was the first shot fired in the deep state coverup.
“Phil had firsthand evidence that Obama was secretly advancing Islamic hegemony in the U.S.,” Haney’s friend Bill Becker, told the California Globe. “He sacrificed his career to expose it.”
His suspicious death deserves an investigation by the FBI, but at this writing, nothing has been announced. As FBI critics might note, after Bernie Sanders supporter James Hodgkinson shot down Steve Scalise, an FBI special agent told reporters it was too soon to say if the shooter had deliberately targeted Republican lawmakers.
Meanwhile, according to the California Globe, friends of Phil Haney said he was “preparing to go back on the road during the 2020 election season.” That raises issues far beyond Amador County, California.
If they manage to win the White House, any of the leading Democrats would surely shut down all investigations into any misconduct by the administration of POTUS 44. At this writing, the Democrats’ leading contender is Rip Van Winkle communist Bernie Sanders, and the election takes place on November 3. As President Trump says, we’ll have to see what happens.
OPERATION OBOMB:
DESTABILIZE AMERICA TO LAY GROUNDS FOR A MUSLIM-STYLE DICTATORSHIP
“Obama’s new home in Washington has been described as the “nerve center” of the anti-Trump opposition. Former attorney general Eric Holder has said that Obama is “ready to roll” and has aligned himself with the “resistance.” Former high-level Obama campaign staffers now work with a variety of groups organizing direct action against Trump’s initiatives. “Resistance School,” for example, features lectures by former campaign executive Sara El-Amine, author of the Obama Organizing.”
Barack Obama’s plot for a third term for life
A Muslim dictatorship like his crony paymasters, the 9-11 invading Saudis who have financed him for decades.
“Obama has the totalitarian impulse. After all, he went around saying he didn't have Constitutional authority to legalize the illegals, and then he tried anyway. The courts stopped him.”
What was Obama’s motive? Simple, he knew if he did that for Hillary, he’d own the next President of the United States, and could blackmail her with the truth till the end of time. It literally would have given him a 3rd and 4th term.

CLOSET MUSLIM BARACK OBAMA’S CONSPIRACY FOR A THIRD TERM FOR LIFE
First, destroy Trump and put Hillary away if she doesn’t end up in jail.
HE PARTNERS WITH ZUCKERBERG, SOROS AND LOUIS FARRAKHAN
“Obama would declare himself president for life with Soros really running the show, as he did for the entire Obama presidency.”
“Hillary was always small potatoes, a placeholder as it were. Her health was always suspect. And do you think the plotters would have let a doofus like Tim Kaine take office in the event that Hillary became disabled?”
“Obama has the totalitarian impulse. After all, he went around saying he didn't have Constitutional authority to legalize the illegals, and then he tried anyway. The courts stopped him.”
“The bottom line 2 is this: Barack Obama is a Communist. This was all an Obama operation. Why is anyone surprised that a communist (Obama) tried to subvert an election. That is what Communists do. It is Barack Obama and his people like Brennan and Clapper behaving to type. That's what Maduro does in Venezuela. That's what the Castro brothers did. That's what every communist and socialist nation does. THEY FIX ELECTIONS!!”
“Hillary kept a secret server overflowing with national security info which, more than likely, was hacked. June 28, 2016, on a Phoenix tarmac, Bill Clinton met with Attorney General Loretta Lynch to seal a deal insuring Hillary would not be prosecuted.”
“Obama, of course, covered up his own role, depicting his presidency as eight years of heroic efforts to repair the damage caused by the 2008 financial crash. At the end of those eight years, however, Wall Street and the financial oligarchy were fully recovered, enjoying record wealth, while working people were poorer than before, a widening social chasm that made possible the election of the billionaire con man and Demagogue in November 2016.”

Earlier this month, jihadists of the Al-Shabaab terror group hijacked a bus heading to Garissa and ordered all the passengers to exit the vehicle. The assailants asked for identification cards, then proceeded to separate the Muslims from the Christians.
When two Christians refused to recite the Islamic statement of faith, or Shahada, they were executed.
THE OBOMBS AND HARVARD
OBAMA AND HIS SAUDIS PAYMASTERS… Did he serve them well?
Michelle was the next to attend Harvard, in her case Harvard Law School. “Told by counselors that her SAT scores and her grades weren’t good enough for an Ivy League school,” writes Christopher Andersen in Barack and Michelle, “Michelle applied to Princeton and Harvard anyway.”
GOOGLE WHAT THE OBOMB DID FOR HIS SAUDIS PAYMASTERS
Barack Obama’s back door, however, was unique to him. Before prosecutors send some of the dimmer Hollywood stars to the slammer for their dimness, they might want to ask just how much influence a Saudi billionaire peddled to get Obama into Harvard.

Lawmakers Mum As Ticketmaster Doles Out Tickets For Farrakhan Hate Rally
The ticketing giant hated by Taylor Swift fans and everyone else who has ever tried to buy concert tickets is now under fire from Jewish activists for selling tickets to a Louis Farrakhan event in which the minister defended Adolf Hitler and predicted another Holocaust against Jews. But many of Ticketmaster's biggest critics on Capitol Hill don't seem to care.
Ticketmaster, which charges service fees on each ticket it sells, raked in money selling tickets to Farrakhan's annual Saviours' Day conference in Chicago last weekend. During his speech at the event, Farrakhan assailed the "stranglehold that Jews have on this government" and claimed "Jewish power is what has all of our people of knowledge and wisdom and talent afraid."
The event was met with crickets on Capitol Hill, with almost no one in Congress speaking out against Ticketmaster for making money off of the Farrakhan event. The reaction is a stark contrast to lawmakers' response when Ticketmaster bungled sales last year for Taylor Swift's much-anticipated concert tour. That fiasco was in the news cycle for weeks and led to a Department of Justice investigation as well as a Senate hearing. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle say Ticketmaster and its parent company, LiveNation, have a monopoly over the ticket industry, leading to price-gouging and a failure to crack down on automated scalping.
"Daily reminder that Ticketmaster is a monopoly, it’s merger with LiveNation should never have been approved, and they need to be reigned in [sic]," wrote Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) in a Twitter post in November. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R., Wash.), now the chairwoman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, sent a letter to Ticketmaster last year raising concerns about its practices, while Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.) and Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) called on the Department of Justice to investigate. None of their offices responded to a request for comment on Ticketmaster's Farrakhan sales.
Only Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.)—who also spoke out about the Taylor Swift debacle—weighed in on the Farrakhan controversy when contacted by the Washington Free Beacon.
"It is extremely concerning that Ticketmaster is choosing to use its platform to elevate and promote a well-known anti-Semite. The targeting of the Jewish people has gone on far too long and must stop," she said.
Entertainment industry leaders and Jewish groups had urged Ticketmaster to drop the Farrakhan event from its sales platform, but Ticketmaster did not waver. The Anti-Defamation League also sent a letter to Ticketmaster on Friday to "note that the Nation of Islam’s annual Saviors’ Day event regularly serves as a platform to amplify this hate and bigotry." The group said it was not calling on the company to halt ticket sales.
The event came as anti-Semitism is on the rise in the United States. Hate crimes against Jews have surged in majorcities, while celebrities like Kanye West and Kyrie Irving have promoted anti-Jewish conspiracy theories on social media. Farrakhan during his speech praised West as a "very great brother" and "genius."
"Ye broke into the fashion industry, that’s controlled by Jews," said Farrakhan. "Don’t be mad with them. They’re in every avenue that leads to power."
"Somebody has to take on the synagogue of Satan, and here we are," he said. "We cannot let them take the country."
Farrakhan criticized Jews who use the phrase "Never Again" when discussing the Holocaust.
"You can say that to men, but you can’t say that to God. Because the Bible says, behold, the day cometh that shall burn—as a what?—as an oven. And those who do wickedly, He will slay them."
"God is not unjust; when he kills you, you know you deserved it," he added.
Farrakhan also defended the Nazis by citing an argument he supposedly heard from a Jewish rabbi on TV.
"Usury is what has made [the Jews] strong. I heard a Jewish rabbi, maybe about six weeks ago, he came on television talking about Adolf Hitler," said Farrakhan. "And he said Hitler was right. He said Hitler went against usury and Hitler attacked pornography that the Jews had put on the Germans."
Farrakhan and his group, the Nation of Islam, promote numerous conspiracy theories about Jews, including that Jews control the government, the media, and global financial institutions.
Last week, a group of entertainment industry leaders sent a letter to Ticketmaster CEO Michael Rapino calling on the company to drop the sales of the Farrakhan event and citing the preacher’s long history of anti-Semitism.
White Lies: Fake Muslim Activist Who Rubbed Shoulders With 'Squad' Members Resigns in Disgrace
A white diversity consultant who cozied up to prominent Democrats while pretending to be an Arab Muslim is out of a job after it was revealed that she was "white as the driven snow."
Raquel Evita Saraswati resigned from her position as chief equity, inclusion, and culture officer at the American Friends Service Committee on Monday after her mother revealed in February that she was born Rachel Elizabeth Seidel. The committee, a Quaker group that works for a "just, peaceful, and sustainable world free of violence, inequality, and oppression," confirmed that Seidel had made the "difficult" and "deeply personal" decision to resign from the group in a statement.
"Raquel Saraswati, who is facing public allegations that she misrepresented her background and past associations, has informed us of her intention to separate from the organization," AFSC spokesman Layne Mullett toldUSA Today.
The transracial grifter, who since 2004 claimed to be of Latin, South Asian, and Arab descent, is a prominent activist in the Philadelphia area and has rubbed shoulders with Democratic Reps. Ilhan Omar (Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.), and attended an event at the Obama White House in July 2016, according to photos from her deleted Flickr album.
Before she tendered her resignation, Seidel faced a revolt from her former colleagues at the committee, who penned an anonymous open letter on Feb. 10 accusing her of lying about her racial heritage and serving as a mole for right-wing interests. The letter prompted the human resources professional who hired Seidel in 2021 to say he felt "conned" and "deceived" for believing she was a queer woman of color who happened to be a Muslim.
Seidel’s mother, Carol Perone, confirmed her daughter is white in an interview with the Intercept in February.
"I call her Rachel. I don’t know why she’s doing what she’s doing," Perone said. "I’m as white as the driven snow and so is she. … I’m German and British, and her father was Calabrese Italian. She’s chosen to live a lie, and I find that very, very sad."
Seidel said she was not fired from the committee and maintained that she was honest with the group during her hiring process in a statement to Fox News.
"I was … honest and completely transparent in securing my role, which I have found extremely fulfilling," Seidel said. "Regarding details of my personal life: I am currently taking the time I need both with loved ones as well as with professional counsel to ensure my concerns and interests are addressed comprehensively while maintaining discretion and care for the personal lives of others."
Seidel, who promoted herself as a "vegan, Muslim, queer feminist," has drawn comparisons to Rachel Dolezal, a former NAACP chapter president who resigned in disgrace after it was revealed that she was white and had been pretending to be African American. In Sept. 2022, TMZ reported that Dolezal had started an OnlyFans page.
A little known, though highly controversial, Islamic teaching is back in the news. According to a Feb. 21, 2023 report, Diyanet, Turkey’s highest religious (and therefore Islamic) institution:
...opened a special section on its fatwa website about earthquakes and answered the question of “Can children of earthquake victims be adopted?” The fatwa stated that it is not right for foster families to treat adopted children like their own children and that “there is no barrier to marriage between the adopter and the adopted child.”
The fatwa mounted criticism on social media and many public figures reacted against the Diyanet’s response.
Journalist Fatih Altaylı also reacted to the Diyanet's fatwa on his Twitter account, saying: “We understand that you are really perverts, but what are you doing in an institution like the Diyanet? Perverts. Go into the porn industry. Don't pollute the institution established by (founder of modern Turkish Republic) Atatürk to give people proper religious knowledge with your perverted imagination.”
Diyanet responded by opening a lawsuit against the journalist for “insulting our presidency and its employees with derogatory expressions.”
The controversy amounts to this: Islam bans adoption; and Islam’s clerics, as they often do, are trying to find a loophole. Rather than adopt, a man may “marry,” concluded Diyanet, a destitute child of his choosing, and that is halal -- a win-win for all involved, and in keeping with Islam’s ban on adoption.
This ban is more prevalent, and negatively impacts more lives, than might be assumed. In fact, just one week after the above report from Turkey appeared, on Feb. 27, 2023, Coptic Solidarity, which focuses on the plight of Christian minorities throughout the Middle East, especially Egypt’s indigenous Copts, launched an “online grassroots campaign” dedicated to arguably the most infamous adoption-related case in modern times in the Muslim world.
Nearly five years ago, a Coptic priest heard cries emanating from inside his empty church. He discovered a newborn baby boy, apparently abandoned by a mother who bore him out of wedlock. The priest entrusted the babe to a childless couple from his congregation. Considering that they had for nearly 30 years been praying for a child, they joyously embraced the boy as their own and baptized and named him Shenouda, a popular Coptic name.
For the next four years everything went well. Shenouda became the pride and joy of his adoptive parents’ lives. Seeing him as a “gift from God,” they spared no care or expense on his upbringing.
Then the Egyptian state learned about this otherwise happy development and seized the four-year-old child from his loving parents’ arms and sent him to an orphanage.
As with Turkey’s Diyanet, although adoption is illegal in Egypt, there are state-approved ways -- loopholes -- for families to take custody of orphan children. In this case, however, the primary argument used by the state against Shenouda’s adoptive parents’ legal attempts to reclaim the boy revolves around religion. Because Islam teaches that every human is born as a sort of prototypical Muslim (until their parents conform them to their own religion), and because the religious identity of Shenouda’s biological parents is unknown, he must, therefore, be considered Muslim; and entrusting Muslim children to non-Muslim parents is strictly forbidden.
Since being transferred to an overcrowded and underfed orphanage, the child was “returned” to -- that is, forced into -- Islam. He was issued a birth certificate marked “Muslim” under religion and stripped of his formerly Christian name and given an acceptable Muslim one, Yusuf.
Meanwhile, logic suggests that Shenouda was born to a Christian mother -- or at least to a mother who thought Christians would best know how to raise her unwanted child. Otherwise, why abandon the babe in a church?
Such are the unknown casualties of Islamic law: whether destitute children from earthquake-ravaged regions must be turned into “spouses” before they are taken care of in Turkey, or whether destitute orphans must be stripped away from loving adoptive parents because they are “infidel” Christians, here is yet another example of human suffering in the name of sharia.

Normally, it would be a surprise to see a Sheriff show up to a radical Muslim event, but in Broward County, for years, it has been the norm. Sheriff Scott Israel did it, while accompanied by his Deputy liaison and then-representative for CAIR, Nezar Hamze, and Israel’s replacement, Gregory Tony, does it with the help of his second-in-command, Executive Officer Munib Ahmed. This month, though, it was Sheriff Tonythat accompanied Ahmed, as Ahmed received an award from the Darul Uloom Institute (DUI), a past haven for high-profile al-Qaeda terrorists run by an anti-gay imam. This is the shocking state of affairs at the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO).
On February 11th, DUI held its 40th Anniversary Annual Award Ceremony and Fundraising Dinner. One of this year’s award recipients was BSO Colonel Munib Ahmed. Ahmed, who previously (and ironically) served as a supervisor in a counter-terrorism unit, enjoys the lofty position of Executive Officer to the Sheriff. Sharing the stage with him were DUI’s founder and imam Shafayat Mohamed, who was donning a lapel pin resembling a Sheriff’s badge (the same pin that the Sheriff wears on his tie), and Sheriff Tony, who received a gift from the mosque, himself. All three were arm-in-arm with big smiles for the camera.
Ahmed spoke glowingly about Shafayat Mohamed and the organization he represents. Ahmed told the crowd that he remembers watching Mohamed’s sermons, “as a young man growing up.” He stated about Mohamed, “To see him today perform in front of us, after 40 years, is amazing. He’s done amazing work not only for this community, but for all of us. We are a better people, because of him, because he gave voice to the people that could not speak. He brought light to situations and current situations that we would never have found out about, so I appreciate you sir, for all your hard work and dedication to this community, and I wish you all the best.”
Part of Mohamed’s work was as an Islamic teacher. One of his students at DUI was soon-to-be convicted terrorist “Dirty Bomber” Jose Padilla. Padilla, a convert to Islam, had met with senior al-Qaeda operatives to discuss his involvement in terrorist operations, including a plot to set off a radiological bomb inside the US.
Another terrorist related to DUI was future al-Qaeda Commander Adnan el-Shukrijumah, who was a prayer leader at DUI. Prior to him being killed in 2014 by the Pakistan Army, el-Shukrijumah had ordered the bombing of the New York subway system. DUI Arabic teacher Imran Mandhai, along with mosque goers Hakki Aksoy and Shueyb Mossa Jokhan, hatched a plot at DUI to blow up different South Florida structures, including electrical power stations, Jewish businesses, and a National Guard armory. Shafayat Mohamed has also admitted that one of the 9/11 hijackers was rumored to have prayed at DUI.
Mohamed has used his pulpit to target homosexuals with the worst of bigotry. In February 2005, DUI published an article written by Mohamed, titled ‘Tsunami: Wrath of God,’ in which he claimed gay sex caused the 2004 Indonesian tsunami. In the piece, he quotes the Quran, saying “most” Jews and Christians “are perverted transgressors.” During an August 2015 DUI sermon, Mohamed lamented the existence of gay Muslim communities. His deeds caused him to be thrown off several Broward County boards. He complained he “got sacked,” because “a lot of gay people” spoke out against him. He said, “I had a choice to sit in paradise or go to hell.”
In his youth, Mohamed was a proud student of now-deceased bigot Ahmed Deedat, author of the anti-Christian screed, Crucifixion or Cruci-Fiction? who, according to The New York Times, was “a vocal anti-Semite and ardent backer of Osama bin Laden,” and who would callously refer to gays as “Sodomites.” On the DUI website, one can find a photograph of Mohamed shaking hands with Deedat in Deedat’s facility, what was at the time known as the Bin Laden Centre. Following Deedat’s death, Mohamed traveled to Deedat’s home, in Durban, South Africa, to meet with Deedat’s son and zealous Adolf Hitler fan, Yusuf Deedat, and to pray by his grave.
This was not the first time Sheriff Tony and his BSO came in contact with a radical mosque. This past April, Sheriff Tony and a number of BSO officers showed up to the Islamic Center of South Florida (ICOSF) for a Ramadan ‘Break the Fast.’ In June, it looked as if the entire BSO showed up to ICOSF’s 2022 Summer Camp. In October, the ICOSF Sisterhood sponsored a BSO event at the mosque, where the female BSO representatives donned hijabs.
ICOSF is owned by the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT), a group named by the US a co-conspirator to Hamas financing. ICOSF’s Imam Hasan Sabri has cursed America as an “enemy” and threatened Muslims who accept her help. ICOSF regularly brings controversial imams Monzer Taleb and Fadi Kablawi to the mosque to give khutbahs (sermons). Taleb is a self-professed member of Hamas, who posted on Facebook that Jews in Israel “should be relocated to Germany.” Kablawi, who the FBI says is a member of ISIS, has called Jews “the lowest of the lowest”; blamed women for rape; and said gays should thank him for their continued existence.
This was, as well, not the first time Sheriff Tony came in contact with DUI’s Shafayat Mohamed. A photo from Sheriff Tony’s September 2022 ‘Unity in Faith Prayer Breakfast and 9/11 Memorial,’ has the Sheriff bowing has head in prayer with Mohamed. Furthermore, Mohamed recently interviewed Tony for his Al-Hikmat TV program. During the interview, Mohamed mentioned that, two weeks prior to the taping of the show, the BSO called him to request 250 copies of the Quran to be presented to BSO prisoners.
The Sheriff told Mohamed, who said he was astonished that the BSO contacted him for Qurans, “We’ve totally changed our cultural awareness here. Broward County is one of the most diverse counties in every facet… We have to be able to engage with the community to make sure we’re not leaving any facet out. Having so much control and being in contact with so many parts of our community, it’s important that we don’t ostracize anyone. I was surprised when I’ve had dialogue with members of our Muslim community how disengaged they were from this organization, not having any type of inclusion, and that’s a problem…”
It is a much bigger problem that Sheriff Tony and the BSO are engaging with radical Muslims. In doing so, they have abandoned their motto ‘to protect and serve,’ and, instead, they are embracing extremism and endangering the community.

Anti-Semitism is First and Utmost a Danger to America and its Values
At a summit held by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in November, FBI Director Christopher Wray spoke about “the tragic reality that the Jewish community uniquely ends up on the receiving end of hate-fueled attacks from all sides.” He referenced the white supremacist attacks in recent years in Poway and Pittsburgh, and the 2022 attack at the synagogue in Colleyville, Texas, motivated by “violent Jihad”. But it’s not just white supremacists and radical Muslims.
There are myriad of groups espousing Jews-hatred – the far-right, the far-left, radical Muslims, and black supremacists, such as Louis Farrakhan, to name a few. The reality is that these groups and their individual members and supporters pose a danger not only to the Jewish community, but to all Americans. Antisemites target Jews first, as they see the Jewish people as easy prey, but what they are really after is changing America beyond recognition, according to their distorted and extreme ideologies.
The tragic reality is that America as a whole is on the receiving end of hate-fueled attacks from all the radical elements of society. The fabric of America is disintegrating in front of our eyes at the hands of the sworn enemies of the American and the Jewish people.
The Mounting Threat for Jewish Americans
In recent years, the threat against American Jews, and consequently the American people, has been mounting. Per FBI Director Wray, “A full 63% of religious hate crimes are motivated by antisemitism—targeting a group that makes up just 2.4% of our population.”
Interestingly, this hate is one of the sole common threads between far-right, far-left, radical Muslim, and black supremacist ideologies. These groups are united by familiar antisemitic tropes of a nefarious and powerful Jewish or “Zionist” cabal that allegedly seeks to dominate and subjugate individuals, societies, and nations through behind-the-scenes scheming.
More and more, these hate groups, who at their core are enemies to each other, are coalescing and cooperating in their hatred of the Jewish people and the Jewish State.
How did we arrive to this point, and is Antisemism just a Jewish problem?
The Threat from the Far Right
Jew hatred from the far-right has grown in recent years with the popularization of the Great Replacement conspiracy theory, in which Jews are commonly held responsible for a plot to subjugate if not eliminate the white race through promotion of non-white mass immigration, feminism, transgenderism, and other supposedly devious schemes.
Hence, at the notorious white supremacist “Unite the Right” rally held in Charlottesville, Virginia in August 2017, marchers feverishly chanted, “Jews will not replace us”.
Within the year, this unfolded into real world violence against Jews. In March 2018, 46-year-old white supremacist Robert Gregory Bowers killed 11 Jews at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania during Shabbat services, the deadliest attack on Jews in America’s history. Blaming the Jews for mass migration to the U.S., Bowers posted on social media before the attack, “I can’t sit by and watch my people get slaughtered. Screw your optics, I’m going in.”
A little over a year later in April 2019, 19-year-old John Timothy Earnest burst into the Chabad of Poway synagogue outside San Diego, killing one congregant in a burst of gunfire, again during Sabbath services. In his manifesto, Earnest wrote, “Every Jew is responsible for the meticulously planned genocide of the European race. They act as a unit, and every Jew plays his part to enslave the other races around him—whether consciously or subconsciously.”
As I’ve warned, the Jews were just the first, most attractive target. Soon these attacks spread to the rest of America. In August 2019, a far-right shooter targeted Latinos in an El Paso, Texas Walmart, killing 23. In May 2022, a far-right shooter targeted black Americans at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, killing 10. Both cited the “Great Replacement” theory as motivations for their attacks.
The Threat from Black Nationalists
Jew hatred doesn’t only come from white nationalists, but also from black nationalists, who since the 1960’s have been advocating for a major national influence through the Nation of Islam (NOI) and their co-hordes through race pride for African Americans and black separatism.
Hatred of Jews has long been brewing in the black community. Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the antisemitic Nation of Islam (NOI), has been a prominent voice in the community for decades.
Farrakhan spews hateful venom at Jews, alleging that the Jewish people were responsible for the slave trade and that they conspire to control the government, the media and Hollywood, as well as various black individuals and organizations. He frequently denies the legitimacy of Judaism – or the Jewish claim to the Land of Israel – arguing that “Judaism is nothing more than a ‘deceptive lie’ and a ‘theological error’ promoted by Jews to further their ‘control’ over America’s government and economy.”
The severity of this problem burst onto the national scene in December 2019, with a spate of attacks against the Jewish community in the New York metropolitan area. On December 10, two heavily armed individuals connected to the Black Hebrew Israelite (BHI) movement murdered three people at a kosher supermarket in Jersey City, New Jersey. Weeks later, on December 28, a BHI-inspired individual attacked a Hanukkah gathering in Monsey, New York with a large knife, killing 72-year-old Rabbi Josef Neumann.
Once again, this hate then reared its head from Jews to the rest of society. In November 2021, Darrell Brooks, a black nationalist drove his SUV into a crowd of Christmas parade attendees in Waukesha, Wisconsin, killing six people and wounding dozens. In April 2022, another black nationalist Frank Robert James perpetrated a mass shooting on the New York City subway during rush hour, injuring 29. James’s online incitement and bigotry included antisemitic diatribes.
Farrakhan’s views are echoed in the recent antisemitic outbursts of famed rapper Kanye West, who now goes by “Ye”. Kanye is now claiming, “Somehow our country has been taken over by, you know, maybe about 300 Zionists.” Farrakhan and Kanye have actually been publicly connected for years, with West referring to him as “sensei” in one of his songs.
When Kanye talks about blacks being the real Jews, he mimics the beliefs of the Black Hebrew Israelites (BHI). While white supremacists say “Jews will not replace us”, BHI followers say they are us. Just this past month, a group of BHI marchers in Brooklyn ominously chanted, “we are the real Jews”.
And now Kanye has united with the far right, bringing white supremacist Nick Fuentes along with him when dining with former President Donald Trump in Mar-a-Lago on November 22.
The “Red-Green” Alliance: The Threat from the Radical Left & Radical Muslims
Not to be outdone, the radical left has been ramping up its Jew hatred for decades, disguising it using hatred for the homeland of the Jewish people, the State of Israel. This radical group new kind of new antisemitism initially gained intellectual currency in universities and other leftist intellectual circles. Today, modern anti-Semitism can be found among members of the radical Left, who are inherently anti-American and see Israel as a symbol of American and Western imperialism, aggressive military rule and the violation of human rights.
Similarly, radical Muslims have long sought Israel’s destruction and promulgated conspiracies of Jewish Zionist global domination. Despite the fact that radical Muslims and leftists are naturally completely misaligned in their belief systems and ideologies, they have joined forces and as the Reut Group warns, “The strategic partnership between the radical left and political Islam, known as the red-green or Islamo-Left alliance, emerged in Europe, but it has migrated to the US in recent years.” Despite their hatred and intolerance to each other they have a shared agenda that is anti-Western, anti-American, and anti-Zionist.
The New Antisemites Report by StopAntisemitism.org and Zachor Legal Institute in which anti-Zionism or hatred of Israel is utilized as an acceptable stand-in for the classical hatred of Jews documents how this contemporary hate, as disseminated by the Islamo-Left so-called “Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions” (BDS) Movement, is negatively influencing large segments of the United States’ population and creating a dangerous environment that normalizes vilification of Jews, as well as inciting violence against Jews, something that history has shown to have deadly consequences.
The radical left have also been promoting Critical Race Theory (CRT) and the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs on universities and high schools contributing to antisemitism in the American education system. However, antisemitism is not just a Jewish problem – it is an American problem and while CRT and DEI policies may disproportionately target and harm Jewish students, their agenda ultimately seeks to undermine and replace fundamental American values and replace it with its own radical vision.
The trend of intersectionality has accelerated the Islamo-Left collaboration.
The strange alliance between the radical Left and radical Muslims – two groups that, despite their seemingly incompatible worldviews, happily collaborate against Israel and the Jews, can be explained by the theory of intersectionality adopted by many in the far Left. According to this theory, groups that consider themselves neglected and discriminated against must come together to fight against each of those groups’ supposed enemies.
This new partnership was on full display during the last major conflict between Israel and the Palestinians in May 2021, when terror groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad launched more than 4,000 rockets and mortars at Israeli civilians. Back in America, we witnessed stunning and unprecedented scenes in New York, Los Angeles, and other major progressive urban centers of Jews being assaulted by mobs of anti-Israel activists. This surge of anti-Jewish hate also included harassment, vandalism and online abuse.
Few could have imagined that such a wave of violence against Jews in major American cities would be possible within living memory of the Holocaust. Jews in America often fear walking the streets wearing Jewish symbols, congregating outside Jewish community buildings, or even speaking Hebrew or Yiddish in public. This is a growing threat to American society. Street violence and hate speech is replacing the American principles of reasoned discourse and debate.
Through intersectionality, the Red-Green alliance seeks to replace the universal virtues of tolerance, pluralism, freedom of speech, and rule of law with racialized “anti-racism”, hierarchical critical race theory, discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, intolerant “cancel culture”, and the censorship of “de-platforming”.
Together, those who foremost target Jews – white and black nationalists as well as the Red-Green alliance of the left and Islamists – are a fundamental threat to America and its values. These radical groups are spearheading efforts to erode the core principles that make our country exceptional, replacing America’s commitment to individual rights and equality, meritocracy, rule of law, tolerance, pluralism, due process, freedom of speech, and free-market capitalism with a racialized and violent world steeped in conspiracy theories and political polarization.
The Jewish people have long been portrayed as the sacrificial “canary in the coal mine”, a powerless creature that will warn others of danger through its demise. But here we are, not a canary, but as an eagle, warning Americans of the looming threats on the horizon. Heed our warnings.

This new partnership was on full display during the last major conflict between Israel and the Palestinians in May 2021, when terror groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad launched more than 4,000 rockets and mortars at Israeli civilians. Back in America, we witnessed stunning and unprecedented scenes in New York, Los Angeles, and other major progressive urban centers of Jews being assaulted by mobs of anti-Israel activists. This surge of anti-Jewish hate also included harassment, vandalism and online abuse.
Few could have imagined that such a wave of violence against Jews in major American cities would be possible within living memory of the Holocaust. Jews in America often fear walking the streets wearing Jewish symbols, congregating outside Jewish community buildings, or even speaking Hebrew or Yiddish in public. This is a growing threat to American society. Street violence and hate speech is replacing the American principles of reasoned discourse and debate.
Through intersectionality, the Red-Green alliance seeks to replace the universal virtues of tolerance, pluralism, freedom of speech, and rule of law with racialized “anti-racism”, hierarchical critical race theory, discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, intolerant “cancel culture”, and the censorship of “de-platforming”.
Together, those who foremost target Jews – white and black nationalists as well as the Red-Green alliance of the left and Islamists – are a fundamental threat to America and its values. These radical groups are spearheading efforts to erode the core principles that make our country exceptional, replacing America’s commitment to individual rights and equality, meritocracy, rule of law, tolerance, pluralism, due process, freedom of speech, and free-market capitalism with a racialized and violent world steeped in conspiracy theories and political polarization.
The Jewish people have long been portrayed as the sacrificial “canary in the coal mine”, a powerless creature that will warn others of danger through its demise. But here we are, not a canary, but as an eagle, warning Americans of the looming threats on the horizon. Heed our warnings.
Pro-crime policies are racist. They enable a crime epidemic that has killed more black people than the total number of battlefield casualties for all races in the Civil War. More black people died in the year of Black Lives Matter than our entire death toll in the Iraq War.
Can it get worse than this? In 1991, 12,226 black people were murdered. For the first time, more black people were killed than white people. The numbers are trending that way once again. While the Left claims that highways and dress codes are systemically racist, their pro-crime policies are a racist program that promises liberation but offers only mass death. DANIELE GREENFIELD
DIVISIONIST GEORGE SOROS HITS AGAIN
New Yorkers understand that the government cannot and will not—and does not want to—protect them from violence. As happened with Bernie Goetz almost 40 years ago, this is when vigilantes become heroes.
BLM Glorifies a Jew-Killing Terrorist. Here is BLM Chicago honoring Rasmea Odeh and also supporting the so-called Palestinian right of return, whose agenda is to overwhelm and destroy Israel demographically. The national BLM organization, as represented by Patrisse Cullors, called not only for the destruction of Israel but also for support for Odeh. Odeh was convicted of murdering two Jews with a bomb and trying to murder emergency responders, but the Israelis disarmed the second bomb in time.
THERE IS NOTHING MORE RACIST THAN THE BLM HOAX. NOR VIOLENT!
BLM is following a business model where victimhood is the product while outrage is the marketing strategy. This was pioneered by veteran race hustler Al Sharpton.
During his heyday, Sharpton made appearances following an incident where there were racial implications to make inflammatory speeches. Once they poured petrol into the fire he just flew out of the place and used it to raise funds for ‘charity’.
Sharpton seems to have mostly used his charity to enrich himself and his family. Sharpton was also a tax dodger; in 2016, he personally owed over $3 million in federal taxes.
Daniel Penny’s legal defense fund closing in on $1.5 million
As of this writing (5:23 AM EDT), the legal defense fund established at GiveSendGo.com is a few thousand dollars short of $1.5 million, at $1,473,253. I am afraid that the hero Marine will need every penny and more if he is to beat this awful manslaughter rap for saving fellow subway passengers from a deranged man with a history of violent assaults on strangers.
Via GiveSendGo.com
The page explains:
Daniel Penny is, a twenty-four-year-old college student and decorated Marine veteran, facing a criminal investigation stemming from him protecting individuals on a NYC subway train from an assailant who later died. Funds are being raised to pay Mr. Penny’s legal fees incurred from any criminal charges filed and any future civil lawsuits that may arise, as well as expenses related to his defense. All contributions are greatly appreciated. Any proceeds collected which exceed those necessary to cover Mr. Penny’s legal defense will be donated to a mental health advocacy program in New York City.
***All funds will be sent to and managed by the law offices of Raiser & Kenniff, P.C***
I just donated, and I urge everyone who has any sum to spare, even $1, to make a donation. With so many prosecutors defaulting on their responsibilities for ideological reasons, and with police understaffed and justifiably afraid of being persecuted for doing their jobs, we are put in the position of having to stand up for ourselves, often at great personal peril, when deranged or merely criminal people attack us.
If we want the physically and morally able among us to stand up to those who threaten us, we must support Mr. Penny.
DIVISIONIST GEORGE SOROS HITS AGAIN
New Yorkers understand that the government cannot and will not—and does not want to—protect them from violence. As happened with Bernie Goetz almost 40 years ago, this is when vigilantes become heroes.
New York City’s Coordinated Behavioral Health Task Force monitors the city’s “most entrenched and chronic patients,” and keeps lists of those who reside on the streets and those who cause trouble in the subways.
The task force is formed of workers from New York City’s government and representatives of the nonprofit groups the city contracts with to try to address the homeless crisis.
Neely was on the task force’s “top 50” subway list and had several encounters with law enforcement and homeless-outreach workers in recent months, the Timesreported.
For example, Neely was jailed in February after he assaulted a 67-year-old and broke several bones in her face. Ultimately, Neely was released under a plea deal that required him to avoid trouble for 15 months, take antipsychotic medication, not abuse drugs, and stay in a residential treatment program.
However, two weeks after his enrollment in the program, Neely “walked out of the facility and did not return,” resulting in an arrest warrant being issued.
In March, outreach workers at a Manhattan subway station contacted Neely, who was “neatly dressed and calm,” and provided him with a ride to a shelter in the Bronx, where he spent the night.
However, outreach workers on April 8 discovered him in a Coney Island subway station “wearing dirty clothes riddled with burn holes,” He also “exposed himself and urinated inside a subway car,” the Timesreported.
The workers in Coney Island learned only the next day that the person they had met was a man on the Top 50 list, case notes show.
A note later filed by an outreach worker about the encounter reads prophetically: “Due to client’s aggressive behavior, he could be a harm to others or himself if left untreated and not assessed by a mental health professional.”
Under a directive issued by Mr. Adams last fall, people who are in such a severe state of psychological crisis that they are a danger to themselves or to others are supposed to be taken to a hospital for evaluation, involuntarily if necessary.
On Thursday, city councilwoman Pierina Sanchez confirmed Neely’s presence on the “top 50” list.
“Our city knew exactly who Jordan was, where he was, and what his history was. And yet we failed him,” Sanchez said.
On May 1, Neely allegedly ranted at subway passengers and threw trash at them before former marine Daniel Penny placed him in a fatal chokehold as he was trying to restrain him. Penny now faces second-degree manslaughter charges filed by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
Daniel Penny, along with others on a New York subway, used a wrestling hold to subdue Jordan Neely after the latter’s behavior was “hostile and erratic.” The Democrat narrative is that a white supremacist murdered a Michael Jackson impersonator. Now, Alvin Bragg, Manhattan’s hard-left District Attorney, has indicted Penny for manslaughter. New Yorkers, though, may not take this indictment lying down.
The last time New York City was as violently out of control as today was in the 1970s and early 1980s. That’s why, when Bernhard Goetz, a white subway rider who had previously been violently mugged, pulled out a gun and shot four black teens who were demanding his money, many in New York City supported him. He was their everyman. The jury rejected serious charges against him, finding him guilty of carrying an unlicensed firearm, for which he served only eight months.
It was in this context that Neely, a homeless man with a long criminal record, including multiple assault charges, came into contact with Penny. According to witnesses, Neely behaved in a “hostile and erratic manner” and threw trash at people (a form of assault), frightening passengers. That’s why Penny put Neely in a “chokehold,” while two other passengers helped.
For a chokehold, one person puts his arm around another person’s neck to control that person. I’ve had hundreds of chokeholds put on me, and I’ve put hundreds on other people. Nobody choked. If you apply hard pressure the correct way, though, you can either cut off someone’s air supply, suffocating them or the flow of blood to their brain. The moment you remove pressure, the suffocation stops, and the blood flow returns.
So, it’s theoretically possible that a chokehold could have killed Neely. Except that we know from the full video, rather than the parts the media focused on, that once Neely stopped screaming and fighting, Penny put him in a recovery position. This is inconsistent with intending to kill a man or believing you have killed him. Several people involved (many of whom thanked Penny) were certain that Neely was alive—and, indeed, Neely was alive, dying only at the hospital:
Hypothetically, though, it shouldn’t matter if Neely had died. The self-defense principle is that you must neutralize the threat. People die because they thought that wounding someone was sufficient to neutralize them.
New York’s self-defense doctrine gives reasonable people the right to take whatever steps are needed to defend themselves or others. They don’t have to wait until they’re wounded (perhaps fatally) to act. Instead, the justification for killing someone kicks in when “a person reasonably believes it is necessary to defend himself/ herself or a third party when there is a reasonable belief of imminent use of unlawful physical force.” (NY Penal Code § 35.15.)
Leftists from D.A. Alvin Bragg to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, though, hate self-defense because it makes people less dependent on the government. When a bodega worker killed a threatening robber, Bragg indicted the worker for murder. He wanted to do the same when a garage security guard wrestled the gun from a robber who shot him and fired back, killing the robber. Recall that, in Canada, Justin Trudeau has successfully eliminated self-defense:
Therefore, it was predictable that Bragg would indict Penny for second-degree manslaughter.
The real question is whether New Yorkers will resist, as they did with the bodega and parking garage workers. While the left is pushing the George Floyd narrative (white-on-black violence), New Yorkers are looking at a subway that functions as the city’s artery, but that is becoming too dangerous for them to use.
No wonder even left-wing outlets are worriedly writing about the number of New Yorkers who have come to Penny’s defense. (See, e.g., Vox, Daily News, Politico, and The Times-Tribune.) And no wonder that Bragg bypassed the grand jury because he feared they’d side with Penny and withhold an indictment.
New Yorkers understand that the government cannot and will not—and does not want to—protect them from violence. As happened with Bernie Goetz almost 40 years ago, this is when vigilantes become heroes.
Ten days after the chokehold strangulation of Jordan Neely on a New York City subway train, Daniel Penny was finally charged with second-degree manslaughter in the homicide. Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man with a history of mental illness, was killed by the 24-year-old Penny, a former US Marine, who held Neely in a chokehold for at least four minutes, an action that was witnessed by scores of passengers and captured on video. Penny was arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court Friday morning. He did not enter a plea, and was released after posting $100,000 bail.

This murder, just as graphically as the police killings of Eric Garner in 2013 and George Floyd in 2020, has provided a glimpse of the bitter reality of life in America. It reveals the risks that many millions of the most oppressed and vulnerable sections of the working class face on a daily basis. The death of Jordan Neely is a direct consequence of the historically unprecedented levels of social inequality and polarization in the glittering US capital of finance, the media and culture. Similar conditions exist in most urban centers, even if not quite as glaring. The glittering surface can no longer hide the reality underneath.
Penny, who was not even identified until his name was leaked to the media three days after the murder, is being represented by Steven Raiser and Thomas Kenniff. Kenniff ran unsuccessfully as the Republican candidate for Manhattan District Attorney against Democrat Alvin Bragg, whose office is prosecuting this case. Penny’s lawyers issued a statement after Penny’s arrest, stating “their confidence that once all the facts and circumstances surrounding this tragic incident are brought to bear, Mr. Penny will be fully absolved of any wrongdoing.”
Whatever Penny’s political views, it is noteworthy that he is being defended by right-wing demagogues like Fox News host Laura Ingraham. A crowdfunding platform has raised more than $400,000 in right-wing circles for his defense.
Neely’s family, including his father, Andre Zachery, and aunt, Carolyn Neely, had been pressing for an arrest since the day of the murder. Dante Mills, a lawyer for the family, told a press conference on May 12 that the prosecutor’s office had telephoned to offer condolences earlier this week. “We said thank you for the condolences, but we want an arrest.”
On Wednesday, nine days after Neely’s death, Democratic Mayor Eric Adams was finally forced to go beyond statements about the need for investigation. Earlier, the family, addressing Adams, had said that his silence meant, “You seem to think others are more important than him.” Adams, speaking at City Hall, said, “Jordan Neely’s life mattered. He was suffering from severe mental illness, but that was not the cause of his death. His death was a tragedy that never should have happened.”
Much has been made of the role of mental illness in Neely’s behavior the day he was murdered. Formerly a Michael Jackson impersonator, he had struggled for many years; he had been arrested more than 40 times, including for violent behavior, and had been committed for psychiatric evaluation or treatment, both voluntarily and involuntarily, on numerous occasions. On the afternoon that found him in the same subway car as Penny, Neely screamed in psychological pain, complaining about hunger and thirst, and saying, “I don’t mind going to jail and getting life in prison.”
Of course, none of this remotely excuses Penny’s action. Witnesses have reported that Neely, though clearly unsettling the passengers, did not directly threaten anyone. Penny was not simply restraining a troubled man. He used the chokehold technique that he had been taught in the Marines, maintaining it for at least four minutes, even as bystanders warned him to release Neely. “If you suffocate him, that’s it,” said one man. “You don’t want to catch a murder charge.”
Various capitalist political hacks, most prominently Adams and Democratic New York governor Kathy Hochul, have suddenly discovered the need for increased mental health treatment. Hochul called the murder “a wake-up call.” She has been governor for the last two years and was lieutenant governor for the six years prior to that, however, and is thus fully responsible for the various budget-cutting programs and the overall economic disaster for the working class that is intimately bound up with the epidemic of homelessness as well as mental illness in New York City.
These elected officials are well aware that mental illness, whatever its genetic or biological components, is triggered or worsened amongst the more vulnerable. Appalling social conditions are a major factor. Neely was 14 years old when his mother was killed by her boyfriend, her body stuffed into a suitcase.
Mayor Adams and other law-and-order advocates exaggerate the crime danger, even as statistics demonstrate that the city remains one of the country’s safest, and that crime in the subways has in fact fallen this year. They nevertheless play on a generalized concern over the social crisis—the decline in living standards, the decay of the infrastructure and the gutting of social programs.
They stoke fear to divert attention from the underlying causes of social issues like mental illness and homelessness, just as the notorious Republican mayor (and more recently Trump coup lawyer) Rudy Giuliani did in the 1990s. The actions of Daniel Penny, in line with this demagogy, appear to indicate he regarded Jordan Neely as less than human.
The overwhelmingly working-class passengers on the New York transit system are well aware of the fact that there have been more public episodes of mental illness, including in the confined spaces of the buses and subways, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic.
Alvin Bragg didn’t trust a grand jury to indict Daniel Penny for the death of Jordan Neely
In New York City, everybody but the richest few percent rides the subway, and they know how bad things have gotten in the wake Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg treating arrests as inequitable since African Americans are disproportionately arrested.
Jordan Neely died in a hospital after being subdued by Marine Corps veteran Daniel Penny with the help of two other passengers (who have not been charged).
Neely “avoid[ed] prison for allegedly slugging a 67-year-old woman in November 2021 during a psychotic episode” by agreeing to a plea deal. Despite a record of more than forty previous arrests, he was allowed to roam the streets, though he was to stay at Harbor House, where he could receive services. When he left there, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Ellen Biben signed a warrant for his arrest on February 23.
Perhaps because police officers realize that arresting any black person can cause enormous career grief, Neely evaded arrest, even while riding subways and being visible on the streets. The justice system, in other words, completely failed to protect the public from a deranged, violent man. So, when riding the subway on May first and threatening passengers with violence, and assaulting some by throwing trash, it was only Daniel Penny who first took action to protect himself and fellow passengers.
it’s theoretically possible that a chokehold could have killed Neely. Except that we know from the full video, rather than the parts the media focused on, that once Neely stopped screaming and fighting, Penny put him in a recovery position. This is inconsistent with intending to kill a man or believing you have killed him. Several people involved (many of whom thanked Penny) were certain that Neely was alive—and, indeed, Neely was alive, dying only at the hospital:
When DA Bragg indicted Penny, he avoided taking the case to a grand jury. I suspect he realized that most members of a Manhattan grand jury are subway riders, and might have even experienced a situation of being threatened on a subway car while on their way to the courthouse. He had reason to believe that a grand jury would not have returned an indictment.
So, just as he did with “Jose Alba, the bodega clerk charged with murder for fatally stabbing an ex-con who was assaulting him in the grocery,” his office issued the indictment on its own. Alba was sent to Riker’s Island, a notoriously violent and unsafe jail, only to be released when the public uproar grew deafening.
Daniel Penny, perhaps because he is white, has so far only been publicly excoriated by “activists” as probably racist, simply because he was a white man subduing a black man who died later. The vast majority of New Yorkers who will make up the jury pool for his trial, most of whom are fellow subway riders, are remaining silent. Literally, a silent majority.
I am afraid it will take a jury trial for Penny to receive justice for his heroic acts that ended badly for the offender. He will need capable (and expensive) counsel.
I’d like to see Bragg repeat what he did in the case of Jose Alba and simply drop the charges because of the obvious injustice or prosecuting an act of self-defense. Large demonstrations might help convince him, but so far, they have not taken place. Unless the silent majority wakes up and realizes it has to encourage, not punish good Samaritans who protect fellow passengers from scary and violent lunatics, the city and its transportation system will only get scarier and more hazardous.
THERE IS NO GREATER THREAT TO AMERICA THAN THE DEMOCRAT PARTY!
This analysis is a crock. Democrats have been seeking to divide the country by race, sex and class for decades. They have sought to destroy anyone who got their way. It started way before Trump. (MORE BELOW)
Watch Live: House Holds ‘Victims of Violent Crime in Manhattan’ Hearing over Alvin Bragg’s Policies
Over the last decade, BLM, and assorted leftist and libertarian groups dismantled our criminal justice system. Police forces were defunded, pro-crime prosecutors refused to lock up criminals, federal and state prison systems released tens of thousands of them, and a wave of legislative decriminalization legalized everything from shoplifting, to drug dealing and mugging.
The pro-crime policymaking that eliminated public safety and cost over 3,000 lives in 2020 alone was done under the guise of fighting racism. Statistics which showed that black people were more likely to be arrested, imprisoned or shot during criminal encounters with police were used to spread conspiracy theories falsely accusing the criminal justice system of systemic racism.
What all of these racist conspiracy theories popularized by politicians, the media, and the entertainment industry ignored was that black people were also far more likely to be crime victims. Even as the BLM riots got underway, black people in surveys were strongly opposed to police defunding. The opposition was so vehement that Democrats not only abandoned the issue, but claimed that they had always been opposed to it and ran against their own position.
Despite years of false claims portraying black people as victims of a biased criminal justice system whose police forces are descended from “slave catchers” who repress minorities at the behest of white suburbanites, surveys of black people continue to tell a very different story.
A Pew survey found that while only 33% of white Democrats wanted to reduce crime, 63% of Hispanics and 66% of black people thought that fighting crime should be a priority.
And that’s nothing new.
Leftists and libertarians lied that the War on Drugs was racist when it was actually pushed by black groups, including the NAACP, which demanded the death penalty for drug dealers.
That same Pew survey showed that while only 38% of white Dems answered that reducing the availability of illegal drugs should be a priority, 57% of Hispanics and 60% of black people believed that it should be.
Now a Kaiser Family Foundation survey shows that black people are far more likely to suffer from crime than white people. The survey, meant to generate support for unconstitutional gun ban measures, instead unintentionally demonstrated that crime hurts black people more.
The KFF survey noted that “three in ten black adults (31%) have personally witnessed someone being shot”, “one-third of black adults (34%) have a family member who was killed by a gun” and (32%) say that they worry all the time about themselves or a family member being shot.
One in six of black adults say they don’t feel “safe at all” from gun violence in their neighborhood, compared to 2% of white adults. 1 in 4 also bought a gun to protect themselves.
Gun violence is just another way of saying crime.
Black people are disproportionately affected by crime. Pro-crime policies led to the deaths of an additional 2,244 black people in 2020. According to a Johns Hopkins report, “in 2020, one out of every 1,000 young black males (15–34) was shot and killed” and, “more than half of all black teens (15–19) who died in 2020—a staggering 52%—were killed by gun violence.”
CDC numbers showed that homicide is a leading cause of death among black men under the age of 20, and from the ages of 20 to 44. White men are killed by guns at the rate of 3.15 per 100,000 while black men die at the rate of 48.16 per 100,000. Pro-crime policies increase crime and kill thousands of black people. That’s what a real disproportionate impact looks like.
Every time pro-crime politicians free criminals, pro-crime prosecutors refuse to prosecute violent offenders, and legislatures eliminate bail, the impact is felt most strongly in the black community.
Law enforcement isn’t racist, but getting rid of it is. When a community depends more on a particular service, losing it has a clear disproportionate impact. Keeping the peace, arresting offenders and dispensing justice is one of the few primal duties of government. The breach in the social contract when the government fails to provide peacekeeping services is devastating.
Most crimes are committed by repeat offenders. The only way to interrupt the cycle of violence is to lock them up. Successful tough on crime policies in the 90s made cities safe once again and led to an economic boom in inner cities. Manhattan’s Harlem went from a danger zone to hosting Bill Clinton’s office, but in 2022, crime increased 44%. The Clinton offices have mostly moved down to the Wall Street area, but where they remain in Central Harlem, crime is up 32%. Next door in West Harlem, it’s up 133%. That means Bill is less likely to tour the Apollo Theater, but it also means that the mostly black residents are the ones feeling the worst of it.
Pro-crime activists have spent years regaling us with the suffering of convicts while caring very little about the shattered lives they have left in their wake. Foundations, protest groups, activist organizations and even PACs have spent hundreds of millions lobbying for criminals, fighting for their release and remaking our system to favor perpetrators, not victims. Their political success has come with a very high cost. And much of that burden has fallen on black people.
It is hard to think of any single policy in the last generation that has done more harm to black people or claimed more lives than the pro-crime agenda. Pro-crime activists have falsely claimed that police shootings of black men are a form of genocide. They’re not. Crime is.
One studycounted 286,075 firearm deaths among black people from 1990 to 2021. That’s over a quarter of a million deaths. Some of them are due to suicide, but suicides are much lower among black people than white people, and the majority of black gun deaths were homicides.
And seeing a quarter of a million deaths, the pro-crime Left wants even more bodies.
Those quarter of a million deaths have been largely self-inflicted, but, much as with the welfare state, they were aided and abetted by white liberal policymakers who had come to believe that what the black community really needed was for the government to enable its criminals.
Racist liberal condescension continues to destroy black communities, families and lives.
2020 demonstrated that tough on crime policies can save thousands of black lives and, over time, perhaps even hundreds of thousands of black lives. Pro-crime policies are a racist disaster which reduced black people to criminals and then set out to free criminals to help black people.
That’s why 1 out of every 1,000 young black men are dead.
Pro-crime policies are racist. They enable a crime epidemic that has killed more black people than the total number of battlefield casualties for all races in the Civil War. More black people died in the year of Black Lives Matter than our entire death toll in the Iraq War.
Can it get worse than this? In 1991, 12,226 black people were murdered. For the first time, more black people were killed than white people. The numbers are trending that way once again. While the Left claims that highways and dress codes are systemically racist, their pro-crime policies are a racist program that promises liberation but offers only mass death.

Kim Gardner is out as St. Louis Circuit Attorney. She resigned on May 4.
Part of her resignation letter to Governor Mike Parson says,
“Stepping back is the most powerful thing I can do to stop these outsiders from taking your views and your rights. I wanted to help the people of St. Louis when I took this job, and that’s still my north star. So, with a heavy heart but a firm decision, I’m retiring as your circuit attorney on June 1.”
Gardner announces her resignation
This is interesting comment since she was largely funded by an outsider. Gardner was one of the first state’s attorneys and attorneys general who were supported and funded by leftist billionaire George Soros.
She has also had the opportunity for years to help the people of St. Louis. She didn’t, and that’s why she’s had to resign.
She has been criticized for being soft on crime since the time she took office. She has faced disciplinary actions as a prosecutor, been reprimanded by the Missouri Supreme Court, and ordered to pay a fine. Her office is currently facing contempt charges because prosecutors failed to appear, and she was heading toward facing neglect of office charges.
In one case, the judge said Gardner’s office was a “rudderless ship of chaos,” and added that Gardner “complete indifference and a conscious disregard for the judicial process.”
While Gardner had weathered the criticism, she has recently seen it increasing even among members of her own party. This is because of a February incident when an out-of-control car hit a teen volleyball player, Janae Edmonson, who was in St. Louis for tournament. Both of Edmonson’s legs had to be amputated.
The car’s driver was out on bond while he waited for his trial in an armed robbery case. He had violated the terms of his bond dozens of times. Gardner’s office claimed that a judge blocked their attempt to arrest the driver before the accident, but there are no records to support this.
This is when Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey filed a petition to start the process to fire Gardner if she was found in neglect of her duties. As part of his support for this, he said nearly 12,000 criminal cases had been dismissed because of Gardner’s neglect and 9,000 were thrown out right before they went to trial.
This was a good first step for St. Louis. Unfortunately, it wasn’t done by the voters in the city, but the state’s attorney general, who is a Republican. This means it will be turned into a political case, and to be honest, it is to a certain extent. This doesn’t mean that Gardner wasn’t incompetent as a circuit attorney, though. It means that whoever replaces her will need to show results.
Parson will choose a new circuit attorney to finish out Gardner’s term, which ends next year. Whoever this is will have a short amount of time to show results in an office that is in disarray. If the replacement can do this, a case can be made to allow the replacement remain in office or at least vote in a strong crime-fighting candidate. If the replacement fails to make a dent on the problem, residents will probably go back to voting for the candidate who matches their party affiliation, and St. Louis will continue to be mired in rising crime and falling public safety.
If St. Louis residents want to see crime come down in the city, they need to support Gardner’s replacement, and if he or she is successful, re-elect that attorney. If replacement fails, then elect someone who is tough on crime, whether that person is Republican or Democrat.

BILLINAORE NEO-FASCIST GEORGE SOROS IS BARACK OBAMA'S PATRON AND GODFATHER!
Soros Family Gives Early Financial
Support to Montana 'Moderate' Jon
Tester
Liberal billionaire George Soros and his son nearly max out to Tester
Democratic megadonor George Soros, Sen. Jon Tester (D., Mont.), and Democratic donor Alexander Soros
Montana senator Jon Tester bills himself as a moderate Democrat willing to criticize his party's left-wing elements—like the progressive policies pushed by his latest financial backers, George and Alexander Soros.
The Soroses last month nearly maxed out campaign contributions to Tester, each giving $2,800, according to campaign finance disclosures, making the red-state Democrat the only candidate to whom both father and son have contributed this election cycle. Though the two pour millions of dollars every year into a variety of left-wing causes, their direct political support so far this cycle has been sparse. The elder Soros has given to only two candidates aside from Tester, Sen. Chris Murphy (D., Conn.) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D., N.Y.), both of whom are politically safe. His son Alexander Soros has given to only Tester and Rep. Ruben Gallego (D., Ariz.), who this cycle is targeting Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I., Ariz.), a former Democrat, from the left.
Tester's support from the Soros family highlights the political tightrope he will have to walk in his bid for reelection. Tester, considered one of the most vulnerable Democratic incumbents in the 2024 cycle, will need to raise money from major Democratic donors in what is likely to be one of the most expensive Senate races of 2024. But the senator, who recently said that he brings a "dirt-under-your-fingernails perspective to Washington," will have to avoid embracing left-wing policies unpopular in the Big Sky Country.
The elder Soros gives tens of millions of dollars a year to groups that support the movements to defund police, expand the Supreme Court, and restrict gun ownership. He has contributed $1.45 million to Color of Change, a civil rights organization that has called to defund police. He funds a variety of gun control groups and has stated, "I'm very much against guns."
Tester has spoken out against those policies, saying the average Montanan views the Democratic Party as "toxic" for ignoring rural voters.
"The defund the police stuff is garbage," said Tester, who also says he is a "strong supporter of the Second Amendment." Asked whether he supports packing the Supreme Court, Tester quipped, "Ix-nay on that bullshit-ay."
Tester's dilemma—balancing a centrist bent while wooing deep-pocketed Democratic donors—was on display last month following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank. Tester criticized a federal bailout of the bank and pledged to hold bank executives and regulators "accountable." But the same day, Tester attended a fundraiser in Palo Alto, Calif., organized by a lawyer for the firm that represents Silicon Valley Bank.
Another fundraiser host serves on the board of the National Resources Defense Council, an environmentalist group that repeatedly sued the Trump administration to shut down the Keystone XL pipeline, the Washington Free Beaconreported. The host, National Resources Defense Council board member Nicole Lederer, has said the pipeline "is against the best interest of our country."
Tester publicly supported the pipeline, saying that it "would have yielded big benefits" for Montana.
Left-wing billionaire and Democrat donor George Soros’ son, Alexander Soros—who chairs the grant-making organization his father founded, Open Society Foundations—has apparently visited the White House numerous times since President Joe Biden (D) took office.
Last year, 37-year-old Alexander Soros had at least a dozen meetings with White House officials, per its visitor logs, the New York Post reported Saturday.
“His latest trips include visiting Dec. 1 with then-White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain’s advisor Nina Srivastava, who also worked on Biden’s presidential campaign, the logs show,” the outlet continued:
[T]he younger Soros was one of 330 people who attended a lavish state dinner on the White House South Lawn hosted by the president and First Lady Jill Biden honoring French President Emmanuel Macron and Macron’s wife, Brigitte.
A day later, Alexander Soros — who chairs the powerful, liberal grant-making network Open Society Foundations founded by his dad — met with both Advisor to the Counselor of President Mariana Adame and Deputy National Security Advisor Jonathan Finer, records show.
The young man’s profile on the Open Society Foundations website said he is also “the founding chair of Bend the Arc Jewish Action, and sits on the boards of Bard College, the Center for Jewish History, Central European University, the European Council on Foreign Relations, and International Crisis Group.”
An image shows the younger Soros at the State Dinner for Macron, while additional photos depict him with leaders that include former President Barack Obama (D):
The Post article said Alexander Soros also attended White House meetings in 2021, but the topics of discussion were not immediately known.
In recent years, George Soros has focused on local races for prosecutors and used funds to elect “progressives” who back “criminal justice reform” and support the Black Lives Matter movement, Breitbart News’ Joel B. Pollak wrote in January 2022.
“The rise of these Soros-backed prosecutors has coincided with a massive surge in murder and crime in many Democrat-run cities, including many where these prosecutors have implemented radical policies toward policing and incarceration,” he reported.
The Open Society Foundations website says it supports people and groups all over the world that it claims are “fighting for freedom of expression, accountable government, and societies that promote justice and equality.”
However, Mike Howell, director of the Oversight Project at the Conservative Heritage Foundation, told the Post there was concern over the younger Soros’ access to the White House.
“The Soros agenda is one of death and destruction in the name of open borders and ending Western Civilization. The Biden administration and rogue prosecutor movement may be [its] most damaging purchase in America to date,” he explained.
THE GLOBALIST DEMOCRAT PARTY FOR BANKSTER BAILOUTS, WALL STREET, OPEN BORDERS FOR MORE "CHEAP" LABOR AND WELFARE FOR WALL STREET...“That our Democratic Party is not the party that is of, by, and for the people.

Meet the Left’s New Soros: Swiss Billionaire Hansjörg Wyss Becomes Democrat Mega-Donor with Millions Funneled to Left-Wing Groups

Billionaire Hansjörg Wyss, a Swiss national who lives in Wyoming, has become a “Democrat-aligned mega-donor,” according to the Associated Press (AP), thanks to his funneling hundreds of millions of dollars to left-wing groups.
“Newly available tax documents show that his giving through the Berger Action Fund, which describes itself as advocating for ‘solutions to some of our world’s biggest problems,’ swelled in 2021 to $72 million, cementing Wyss’ status as a Democratic-aligned megadonor,” the AP reports.
Wyss, who built his fortune creating the medical device company Synthes USA, which was sold in 2012 to Johnson & Johnson for $20 billion, has routed nearly $340 million through the Berger Action Fund to left-wing organizations like Sixteen Thirty Fund and the New Venture Fund since 2016.
Both groups have worked to build support for President Joe Biden’s agenda.
Specifically, Sixteen Thirty Fund is a left-wing lobbying organization that promotes “equity and racial justice” as well as universal healthcare and climate change legislation. The Sixteen Thirty Fund also shifts money to left-wing political organizations like the scandal-plagued Lincoln Project and the pro-Biden group Unite the Country.
As Politico reported in 2021, the group spent $410 million in the 2020 presidential election to unseat then-President Donald Trump and win Democrats a Senate majority with ad campaigns and a huge get-out-the-vote effort. Since 2016, Wyss has donated $208 million to the Sixteen Thirty Fund.
Politico reported:
The Sixteen Thirty Fund’s multi-million dollar grants singlehandedly powered some other organizations on the left, and it also incubated other groups, as a “fiscal sponsor,” that fought against Trump’s Supreme Court nominees, backed liberal ballot measures and policy proposals in different states and organized opposition to Republican tax and health care policies. [Emphasis added]
Its massive 2020 fundraising and spending illustrates the extent to which the left embraced the use of “dark money” to fight for its causes in recent years. After decrying big-money Republican donors over the last decade, as well as the Supreme Court rulings that flooded politics with more cash, Democrats now benefit from hundreds of millions of dollars of undisclosed donations as well. [Emphasis added]
Meanwhile, the New Venture Fund, which has received almost $40 million in donations from Wyss since 2016, centers its nonprofit work around the tenants of Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).
“Our vision is an equitable world built on respect, access, opportunity, distributed power, and advancement for all people,” the group’s mission statement reads.
Last year, the New Venture Fund and the Sixteen Thirty Fund bankrolled pro-CRT efforts across the United States to push back against parents of schoolchildren and some educators who object to the race-based theory being practiced in American classrooms.
Fox News reported:
A liberal dark money campaign has quietly formed to push back against anti-Critical Race Theory efforts in K-12 schools across the United States, records reviewed by Fox News Digital show. [Emphasis added]
…
But while Campaign for Our Shared Future claims it is a grassroots “non-partisan” effort, the group is part of one of the most prominent left-wing dark money networks in the United States. [Emphasis added]
According to Washington, D.C. business records, Campaign for Our Shared Future, the group’s 501(c)(3) educational arm, is fiscally sponsored by the New Venture Fund. Meanwhile, Campaign for Our Shared Future Action Fund, its 501(c)(4) advocacy arm, falls under the Sixteen Thirty Fund. The funds registered the respective groups in early May. [Emphasis added]
Similarly, Wyss has also donated more than $100 million to the Fund for a Better Future group, which calls “diversity, equity, and inclusion” a “moral imperative and essential” to their mission in promoting left-wing causes.
The Fund for a Better Future, in 2021, financed a lobbying campaign to promote Biden’s “Build Back Better” agenda, mainly its green energy initiatives, and spent more than $5 million in last year’s midterm elections to back 30 House Democrats against Republicans.
Wyss, as Breitbart News reported in 2021, also sits on the board of directors of the highly-influential Center for American Progress (CAP) and previously donated millions to the Clinton Foundation.
Wyss has donated millions to CAP as well as the left-wing Priorities USA.
In 2015, Wyss’s central organization — the Wyss Foundation — created the Hub Project specifically “to shape media coverage to help Democratic causes,” according to the New York Times.
“The Hub Project’s activities include organizing paid advertising campaigns that criticized Republican congressional candidates in 2018, as well as a series of marches in 2017 that called on then-President Donald J. Trump to release his tax returns,” the Times reported.
Though he is barred by U.S. election law from donating directly to candidates and political action committees (PACs), Wyss donated almost $120,000 to candidates and PACs from 1990 through 2006, according to the Times. The Federal Election Commission (FEC) never brought formal complaints against Wyss and the statute of limitations has since passed to do so.

OBAMA'S WINDING PATH TO A THIRD TERM WILL BE THROUGH GEOGE SOROS!
This is a win for the likes of Pelosi who want to turn the U.S. into a third-world dictatorship where government agencies such as law enforcement and the judiciary are used to target opponents and outlaw political opposition.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DEMOCRAT PARTY? DIDN'T IT START WITH BILLARY CLINTON, WHO WORKED HAND IN HAND WITH 'CREDIT CARD' JOE BIDEN FOR BANKSTERS AND TO PERPETRATE NAFTA???
I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to nuclear war. TULSI GABBARD
HOW MANY OF THESE ARE PARASITE GAMER LAWYERS?...............EVERY SINGLE ONE BUT PELOSI AND TRUMP.
The left-wing billionaire George Soros and his network of activist groups spent millions of dollars to help Janet Protasiewicz win a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, a Washington Free Beacon analysis of campaign finance disclosure forms found.
The total amount of money stemming from groups bankrolled by the hedge-fund billionaire totals at least $2.8 million, accounting for a quarter of all outside spending for Protasiewicz in the most expensive state supreme court race in history. Soros also personally donated $1 million to the Democratic Party of Wisconsin on Feb. 22, which in turn flooded Protasiewicz’s campaign coffers with millions of dollars in the final weeks leading to the election.
Soros claims to have given away more than $12 billion dollars to various charities and political causes. Both Soros and activist groups he funds have spent more than $40 million in the last decade electing left-wing prosecutors around the country, which critics say is at least partially responsible for the nationwide crime spike.
Soros has remained laser-focused on reforming the nation’s legal system for years. His Open Society Foundations doubled their funding for Demand Justice, a left-wing activist group that seeks to remake the Supreme Court, to the tune of $4.5 million over three years beginning in 2021, according to tax filings first reported earlier this year. But Soros’s spending in Wisconsin signals that he seeks to remake state courts as well, in what appears to be his first major foray into a state supreme court race.
Sorors will likely see a solid return on his investment. Protasiewicz’s victory over conservative jurist Daniel Kelly gives liberals their first majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court in 15 years. The consequences of the election are expected to be transformational for the swing state, with the new court expected to rule on a number of hotly-contested issues including the legality of "right to work," abortion access, the state’s legislature map, and voter ID laws.
Many of the top-spending outside groups that supported Protasiewicz count Soros-funded non-profits as their top donors. The Better Wisconsin Together Political Action Fund, which spent $6.2 million on ads supporting the judge, received $1.6 million from the State Victory Action in the first three months of 2023. State Victory Action, in turn, received $1.6 million from the Soros-funded Democracy PAC in 2022, Federal Election Commission records show. State Victory Action was founded in 2018 with $11 million in seed funding from Soros and his fellow liberal billionaire Tom Steyer, the Free Beaconreported.
Prostasiewicz enjoyed a roughly $6 million spending advantage over her opponent in the $45 million contest, the most expensive state supreme court race in history.
The Wisconsin Conservation Voters Independent Expenditure Committee, which doled out $1 million in support of Protasiewicz, was bankrolled primarily by the Soros-funded nonprofit America Votes, which funneled $800,000 to the committee in late February and March. Soros’s Open Society network contributed a combined $40.4 million to America Votes from 2017 through 2021.
America Votes frequently passes money over to its affiliated Action Fund, such as in July 2022 when the group transferred $2 million to its political arm. The America Votes Action Fund then contributed $447,500 to the Power to the Polls Action Fund in March, enabling the group to spend over $540,000 on mailings, canvassing, and ads in support of Protasiewicz.
One group Soros did not finance was the Organizing Empowerment PAC, whose murky funding became a flashpoint in the contentious race. The group spent $532,500 on voter mobilization efforts for Protasiewicz, but hasn’t disclosed any of its donors to the Wisconsin Ethics Commission. The Republican Party of Wisconsin alleged the PAC’s failure to disclose its donors to the state was part of a "shady" and illegal scheme to elect Protasiewicz in a March 14 complaint to the Wisconsin Ethics Commission.
Kelly echoed that claim in his concession speech, claiming "This was the most deeply deceitful, dishonorable, despicable campaign I have ever seen run for the courts."
Few other individuals devoted as much money to electing Protasiewicz as Soros, who is a consistent subject of Republican ire. Most recently, Soros has been in the spotlight regarding his role in electing Democratic Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg, who this month charged former president Donald Trump with 32 felonies over hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels. Legal observers from across the political spectrum have criticized Bragg’s case as flimsy and politically motivated.
Update: April 7, 7:12 p.m.: This piece has been updated to reflect the timeline of Open Society Foundations' $4.5 million donation to Demand Justice.
Why it matters: Soros’s potential links to Bragg have become a hot-button issue after the prosecutor charged former president Donald Trump over alleged hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels. Republicans say that Soros, who funds numerous anti-Trump causes, helped Bragg get into office. Democrats have in turn accused Republicans of pushing anti-Semitic conspiracy theories that Soros, who is Jewish, is pulling the strings of the Trump investigation.
Context: Soros is by far the largest donor to Color of Change PAC, a left-wing group that was Bragg’s biggest campaign contributor. Color of Change in May 2021 pledged to spend $1 million to support Bragg’s campaign. Days after the endorsement, Soros contributed $1 million to Color of Change PAC. That was by far the largest individual donation to Color of Change that year. The next largest contribution was $50,000, according to campaign finance records.
Soros has given $1,450,000 in all directly to Color of Change PAC and millions more through other committees he funds. Democracy PAC, which is funded almost entirely by Soros, gave $2.5 million to Color of Change PAC in 2020, records show.
A progressive group called Win Justice contributed $2,025,133 to Color of Change PAC in 2020. Soros is by far that group’s biggest backer. He gave $5 million of his own money to Win Justice in 2018 and another $5 million through Democracy PAC in 2020.
Color of Change, which has long called for Trump’s prosecution, praised the Trump indictment on Thursday.
"In this historic moment, Color Of Change applauds New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who refused to let corporate influence, racist right-wing attacks, and threats of violence interfere with holding the former president accountable. This is the kind of political courage we need from every district attorney in the country," said Color of Change president Rashad Robinson, who is perhaps best known for stoking actor Jussie Smollett’s hate crime hoax.
Analysis: Soros says that he "did not contribute" to Bragg and has never met the prosecutor.
"I think some on the right would rather focus on far-fetched conspiracy theories than on the serious charges against the former president," he told Semafor.
While Soros did not write a check directly to Bragg’s campaign, his cash almost certainly flowed to the prosecutor’s election war chest through the anti-police, anti-Trump Color of Change PAC. Regardless of whatever pressure Soros did or did not place on Bragg’s investigation, both he and Color of Change are happy with the outcome, as indicated by their statements about Trump’s indictment.
I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to nuclear war.

Pelosi's Tweet Reveals the Real Intentions Behind Trump’s Indictment
Pelosi claimed that the Grand Jury has acted upon the facts and the law.
So let’s look at the facts first.
President Trump has denied the affair with Stormy Daniel. In a 2018 letter that surfaced recently, Daniel also denied that the affair ever occurred, despite claiming otherwise in public.
Another 2018 letter proves that neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction. Also, Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen was not reimbursed for the payment by any organizations affiliated to Trump.
Since the transaction didn’t occur at Trump’s behest, the case has no basis.
Even if Trump had directed Cohen to make hush payments and the Trump Organization had reimbursed him for the payment to Daniels but billed them as legal expenses, it would constitute a misdemeanor for which the statute of limitations has run out.
Back to Pelosi’s tweet. Pelosi wrote:
“No one is above the law, and everyone has the right to a trial to prove innocence.”
This is nothing short of a shocking statement, especially from a lawmaker with many decades of experience. The presumption of innocence is the standard in any civilized democracy -- anyone accused of any crime is considered innocent until proven guilty. The legal burden of proof lies on the prosecution, which must present compelling face-based evidence to before a judge or a jury. The prosecution must prove that the accused is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If reasonable doubt remains, the accused must be acquitted.
“It is a cardinal principle of our system of justice that every person accused of a crime is presumed to be innocent unless and until his or her guilt is established beyond a reasonable doubt. The presumption is not a mere formality. It is a matter of the most important substance.
The presumption of innocence alone may be sufficient to raise a reasonable doubt and to require the acquittal of a defendant. The defendant before you, [__________], has the benefit of that presumption throughout the trial, and you are not to convict [him/her] of a particular charge unless you are persuaded of [his/her] guilt of that charge beyond a reasonable doubt.
The presumption of innocence until proven guilty means that the burden of proof is always on the government to satisfy you that [defendant] is guilty of the crime with which [he/she] is charged beyond a reasonable doubt. The law does not require that the government prove guilt beyond all possible doubt; proof beyond a reasonable doubt is sufficient to convict. This burden never shifts to [defendant]. It is always the government's burden to prove each of the elements of the crime[s] charged beyond a reasonable doubt by the evidence and the reasonable inferences to be drawn from that evidence. [Defendant] has the right to rely upon the failure or inability of the government to establish beyond a reasonable doubt any essential element of a crime charged against [him/her].
If, after fair and impartial consideration of all the evidence, you have a reasonable doubt as to [defendant]'s guilt of a particular crime, it is your duty to acquit [him/her] of that crime. On the other hand, if, after fair and impartial consideration of all the evidence, you are satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt of [defendant]'s guilt of a particular crime, you should vote to convict [him/her].”
It is unlikely that Pelosi isn’t aware of the legal standards in the U.S. Perhaps her feeling of schadenfreude got the better of her, or maybe this is a warning for others who support the MAGA agenda. Pelosi know that such claims will receive no condemnation in D.C. because the target is President Trump.
Thankfully Elon Musk’s Twitter flagged Pelosi’s Tweet and presented context to it in the community notes feature.
So are there any countries where the accused is guilty until proven innocent?
They are mostly third-world countries or theocratic or military dictatorships where the might of the law is used to target opponents and dissidents. Irrespective of what their constitution says, dissidents were presumed guilty until proven innocent.
This is how the law operated in Stalin's Russia, Nazi Germany, Mussolini's Italy, Franco’s Spain etc.
It is not just President Trump who has been the recipient of this treatment. The January 6th protestors held in the District of Columbia jail have complained of being subjected to inhumane conditions. The constant delays in hearings and postponements dragged out for over a year caused so much trauma to one of the accused that he committed suicide.
This remains the goal behind the exercise, to make the process the punishment.
To drag the trial along, and to drain all their resources and spirits of the accused. To sully reputations permanently. To make the accused feel worse than the worst of criminals in the U.S.
They know that these stories spread like wildfire and most people seeking a life of peace for themselves and their families choose to refrain from challenging the Democrats merely to avoid hardships.
Doubtlessly many citizens must have refrained from showing any overt support to the MAGA cause for fear of being persecuted by the Democrats.
This is a win for the likes of Pelosi who want to turn the U.S. into a third-world dictatorship where government agencies such as law enforcement and the judiciary are used to target opponents and outlaw political opposition.
Their goal is to have a single-party state.
Yes, there will be Republicans and Democrats who disagree in minor issues, but on all the major issues of consequence there is a total consensus.
The ball is now in the court of the Republicans and the citizens all over the nation.
In perilous times, there is no greater sin than inaction.
3. CORRUPTION IN THE FBI: The malicious and ethics-free raid on Mar-a-Lago is viewed even by many Democrats and all Republicans as vicious political intimidation, with the goal of destroying any followers of Donald Trump. This began in earnest during the "Russia collusion" case and saw its culmination in midnight raids of innocent conservatives revealing a hateful, vengeful vigilantism on the part of the radical left. In the hope that supporters of Trump and other conservative candidates would drop out of politics in fear of similar reprisals, these Gestapo tactics have not only solidified Trump's support and the support of even moderately conservative candidates, but have shown the Left to be petty children in a deranged, red-haze temper tantrum.
THE OBJECTIVE OF GEORGE SOROS IS TO COMPLETE BARACK OBAMA'S DIVISIONIST VISION OF AMERICA AND TO PUT THE CORPORATIST BANKSTER-OWNED BARACK BACK INTO THE WHITE HOUSE FOR A THIRD TERM FOR LIFE.
His antipathy for the United States is pathological and he has spent his billions on countless projects to bring this nation to its knees.
Obama lets the cat out of the bag: He's got plans to make Joe Biden his stooge
Joe Biden, who couldn't even get President Obama's endorsement during the primaries, now has word that Obama may well use him as his marionette stooge for what's in fact a third Obama term.
He's not even trying to hide it.
OPERATION OBOMB: Barack Obama, Eric Holder and their bankster paymasters plan coup.
Barack Obama was famous not wanting to leave office when his term was done and well known for projecting a sense of entitlement to power.
“Obama’s new home in Washington has been described as the “nerve center” of the anti-Trump opposition. Former attorney general Eric Holder has said that Obama is “ready to roll” and has aligned himself with the “resistance.” Former high-level Obama campaign staffers now work with a variety of groups organizing direct action against Trump’s initiatives. “Resistance School,” for example, features lectures by former campaign executive Sara El-Amine, author of the Obama Organizing.”
George Soros-funded DAs, AGs and secretaries of state were not chosen for their intellectual firepower but for their loyalty
George Soros has for decades sought to destroy America as founded. Jewish by birth but a Nazi by choice, it is not hyperbolic to call him a devil incarnate. He is perhaps the most purely evil human who has used his vast wealth solely for malevolent purposes. His antipathy for the United States is pathological and he has spent his billions on countless projects to bring this nation to its knees.
Like any and every Marxist, he advocates for chaos. The man is Faust’s Mephistopheles, Satan, and Lucifer all rolled into a one-man wicked wrecking ball who should have been stopped decades ago. Now he has installed carefully chosen serfs for all the wrong reasons, numerous DAs, AGs, and Secretaries of State throughout the country to do his bidding – to effect Cloward and PIven! DAs like Alvin Bragg got their orders from Soros’ headquarters with the $1.1m Soros funneled to install him in office. Soros does not spend his money on smart people. He spends on people he can depend upon to do what he tells them to do: Get Trump. See Alan Dershowitz’s book.
Bragg, elected in 2021, has been a disaster for Manhattan. He refuses to seek bail or sentences for violent criminals – armed robbery, drug dealing, violent attacks on innocent civilians and burglary. Nine of the prosecutors in the Manhattan office quit when he announced his pro-criminal agenda. He was installed for one reason, one reason only, to facilitate crime and to take down Donald Trump. I hope that, along with all the other Soros-installed DAs, he will go down in flames when his pro-criminal, anti-Americanism becomes clear. How did he even pass the bar? Has he even read the Constitution?
Chesa Boudin, former DA in San Francisco, has been recalled; by San Franciscans! Los Angeles DA George Gascon was effectively recalled but the left’s expertise at cheating has kept him in office. Under Gascon, homicide rates have soared as has shoplifting by mobs of looters who are never arrested.
Kim Foxx, DA in Chicago, is another of Soros’s tools, the one who dropped charges against Jussie Smollett! On her watch Chicago has endured the largest spike in murder in over thirty years. Larry Krasner in Philadelphia, Kim Gardner in St. Louis; she has been caught lying about police officers who pulled her over, has admitted to campaign finance violations and saw her city become the murder capital of the country. There are so many more. Crime in each of these cities has escalated catastrophically as if by Soros magic. Soros Dso proud.
The democrat party, no longer remotely liberal but Marxist, does not care about anything but keeping Trump out the White House so Soros’s meddling in our politics is just fine with them. They have long embraced Soros’s money, for themselves and for however much of his illegal and unconstitutional election interference it takes to win. They do not mind his putting morons in office as long as they do what they are told. Indicting Trump? Bragg is doing what he’s been told to do.
Unsurprisingly, Katie Hobbs, the illegitimate governor of Arizona, is a Soros slave. He got her elected as Arizona’s Secretary of State. She apparently wants her state’s border with Mexico to remain open. She supports the sexual grooming of children in schools, CRT, etc. She’s an enemy of her state. Alvin Bragg is an enemy of his state and is so brazen he is now outed himself as an enemy of the law. He is a classic useful idiot. He probably has no idea that he has opened Pandora’s Box and that he will likely be consumed by the illegitimacy of his folly.
Like every member of Biden’s cabinet, who were chosen for their skin color or sexual orientation, none of Soros’s DAs were chosen for the intellectual competence. They were selected to do the radical left’s bidding, Soros’s bidding – promote crime, create chaos – destructive riots, violence, etc. That is what Bragg’s indictment of Trump is meant to do as well.
The left is hoping for violence they can pin on Trump supporters but if violence occurs, it will be, like J6, calculated by the left, incited by Antifa and/or FBI/CIA embeds, or paid for by Soros via many of his front organizations. Those institutions have many years of experience at exactly that sort of exercise. They learned their craft from the FBI, the CIA and the DOJ. Now some Americans know how corrupt each of those agencies is and under Biden are likely remain corrupt.
Bragg’s indictment of Trump should be the most serious wake-up call for all Americans. While it began under Obama, America is being transformed into a police state, one where people are being imprisoned for their dissent from the regime’s narrative. We no longer enjoy freedom of speech or religion. Ask any mildly conservative college student. They cannot speak freely without being cancelled, punished or expelled.
Our elections are not at all secure or fair. The Biden administration is bogus, achieved by massive fraud. And now they have indicted the former and potentially future President in yet another ruse to take him down and out. Chances are he will not go quietly into that good night. He should have all of us at his back fighting the good fight.
There was a time when we elected people of integrity and expertise in their chosen field. This is no longer the case. Wokery - CRT, DEI, ESG, LGB, transgenderism, etc. – these nonsensical ideologies are killing us, destroying academia, indoctrinating our young people. The globalists want to erase national boundaries, erase national sovereignty. They want to ban any and all religious faiths and make serfs of us all. The WEF and China are fast on our heels. They are winning with Biden’s willing capitulation.
The Alvin Braggs are weapons in their war against the American people who want only to preserve the freedoms the Founders designed for us.
Disgraced former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried tried to build a political empire to rival Democrat megadonor George Soros.
Puck News reporter Theodore Schleifer wrote that Bankman-Fried personally bought a Democrat startup, Deck, spending roughly $4 to $5 million to buy out the existing investors to the Democrat analytics firm. Bankman-Fried reportedly heard about the startup from Mind the Gap, a Democrat donor network founded by his mother, Barbara Bankman-Fried.
The purchase of Deck served as Bankman-Fried’s political scheme to be the “biggest donor in the Democratic Party,” even outshining Democrat megadonor.

Bankman-Fried and Ryan Salame, co-CEO of FTX Digital Markets, served as two of the largest donors to Republicans and Democrats last cycle. Bankman-Fried fell just below Soros as the largest Democrat donor.

In all, Bankman-Fried donated roughly $40 million to Democrat politicians and PACs, while Salame gave about $23 million to Republicans and PACs supporting the GOP.
Puck News wrote that the former FTX CEO sought advisers and conducted data experiments to help Democrats in the 2024 election cycle:
I have previously reported that S.B.F.’s team was actively looking for future advisors to join them in drafting “plays” for the 2024 cycle, and that one of those ideas was to fund some more progressive organizations, for instance. Some of those plans were already underway. I have learned in recent days that S.B.F. was already quietly funding some experiments across the Democratic ecosystem, such as randomized-controlled trials that might have yielded data that could help Democrats in 2024, according to two people familiar with the work, by assessing the impact of things like community newsletters, Facebook ads, and so-called “relational organizing.”
In all, the report suggested that Bankman-Fried might have spent roughly $100 million, but according to Schleifer, “That could be an undercount.”

The old Democrat Party is gone. In its place is a radical Libertine Party, full of itself and full of radical sexual, cultural, and economic ideas that have all but killed their chances of ever getting legitimately elected again. The following five things are what I believe has murdered the Democrat Party in its sleep:
1. CRT: Critical Race Theory in all its permutations, regardless of its origins and history, has become the banner of anti-white racism, disguising itself as "anti-racism." Under its banner, white people are told they are worthless, toxic, hateful oppressors. Worse, companies are actually hiring people who promote this toxicity and schools are teaching students to hate white people. Now out in the open, anti-white racism has created a hate-filled atmosphere of constant tension and dissension, where the only thing that matters, first and foremost, is skin color. This can only be laid at the feet of Democrats.
2. TRANS WOMEN IN WOMEN'S SPORTS: The gross unfairness of allowing men into women's sports (no, I will not call them "women") is so blatant and outrageous, that proponents are seen not merely as insane, but malevolent. The destruction of women's sports is viewed by all rational people as evil in the name of wokeness.
3. CORRUPTION IN THE FBI: The malicious and ethics-free raid on Mar-a-Lago is viewed even by many Democrats and all Republicans as vicious political intimidation, with the goal of destroying any followers of Donald Trump. This began in earnest during the "Russia collusion" case and saw its culmination in midnight raids of innocent conservatives revealing a hateful, vengeful vigilantism on the part of the radical left. In the hope that supporters of Trump and other conservative candidates would drop out of politics in fear of similar reprisals, these Gestapo tactics have not only solidified Trump's support and the support of even moderately conservative candidates, but have shown the Left to be petty children in a deranged, red-haze temper tantrum.
4. COVID MASK AND VACCINE MANDATES: Certainly a show of power rather than anything prophylactic against COVID, blue states and leftist groups have revealed that they know the masks do not prevent COVID, but instead are a symbol of big-government Stasi tactics designed to subjugate the citizenry in order to prepare them for eventual control.
5. DRAG QUEENS IN THE SCHOOLS: Young children have been indoctrinated into sexual fetishism and perverse sexual behavior at the behest of school administrators and leftist parents who seem to see nothing morally wrong with gay men dressing up as women in highly sexually-suggestive costumery and behavior. Why they are doing this has become clear: They want to break down all parental control over children and indoctrinate them into pedophilia, perversity, and compliance. For most parents, this was a bustier too far.
6. THE ECONOMY: From the start in 2021 when Joe Biden killed the Keystone pipeline and halted all drilling and new permits, the economy began tanking. Gas prices, supply line problems, paying people not to work, profligate spending, and other avoidable problems has hit the average American smack dab in the wallet. No matter how much the Biden administration denies their role in inflation and no matter how many times Joe says the economy is "strong as hell," Americans watch their buying power dwindle. They want relief and it is clear they will not get it from the Democrat Party.
7. ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: From day one, the borders were flung open by the Democrat Party to drug traffickers, murderers, and myriad other miscreants in the hope they would be new Democrat votes. As a result, crime is rampant, blue cities under Democrat rule are suffering and homelessness is on the rise, all the while Biden spokespeople are claiming the "border is closed." Squealing like stuck pigs, places like New York City which have reluctantly become home to Texas' illegals, have seen a marked inability to safely house the very illegals they claim to have wanted to live in their "sanctuary city."
8. CRIME: Because of the Democrat rule in blue cities, crime is not being prosecuted in the name of some weird kind of reparations. What the Democrats don't get is that they hurt their own innocent population by allowing criminals a get-out-jail-free card, and by not prosecuting at all. Their racist policies hurt the very people they claim to want to help. Why are they doing this? To deliberately create chaos in the execution of anti-white racism. The one solution to the rising crime rate, the prosecution and incarceration of criminals, is the one thing blue cities under Democrat rule will not do. Mayor Lightfoot makes weird and demonic home videos of herself dancing around in what appears to be a drugged stupor. Rather than be a responsible mayor, she has totally ignored the death-by-violence rate in Chicago. This is another very clear example of Democrats doing what they do best; destroying things.
Obama lets the cat out of the bag: He's got plans to make Joe Biden his stooge
Joe Biden, who couldn't even get President Obama's endorsement during the primaries, now has word that Obama may well use him as his marionette stooge for what's in fact a third Obama term.
He's not even trying to hide it.
OPERATION OBOMB: Barack Obama, Eric Holder and their bankster paymasters plan coup.
Barack Obama was famous not wanting to leave office when his term was done and well known for projecting a sense of entitlement to power.
“Obama’s new home in Washington has been described as the “nerve center” of the anti-Trump opposition. Former attorney general Eric Holder has said that Obama is “ready to roll” and has aligned himself with the “resistance.” Former high-level Obama campaign staffers now work with a variety of groups organizing direct action against Trump’s initiatives. “Resistance School,” for example, features lectures by former campaign executive Sara El-Amine, author of the Obama Organizing.”
Alvin Bragg and other Soros-owned big city DAs have nothing to do with putting hombres behind bars and upholding the highest standards of public safety. They have to do with the Marxist imperative of destroying to rule over the ruins.
OBAMAVILLE, CHICAGO:
Back in 2020, Soros kicked a couple of million into a committee backing Foxx’s election. Since Foxx became State’s Attorney, Chicago’s lowlifes have enjoyed an open-ended holiday -- from arrest, indictment, and almost certain conviction.
To lift a line from the immortal Dean Wormer: “Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life…” here amended to fat and stupid. Case in point, Alvin Bragg, now the Manhattan district attorney, and a guy who never met a calzone he didn’t eat. Calzones deserve a better fate.
Bragg -- who badly wants to carve up Donald J. Trump, but won’t -- was boosted into office in November 2021 in yet another spasm of virtue signaling by the Rotted Apple’s smart set, and whose campaign was lubed by dollars from George Soros to the aptly named “Color of Change PAC.”
Bragg is another swell diversity hire. They abound in America’s deteriorating cities. And not incidentally -- in fact, importantly -- he’s a Soros and establishment sock puppet. In going after Trump -- and as of this writing, flailing conspicuously in his gambit -- he’s paying his dues to the Man. Diversity hire's only requirement is doing the Man’s bidding. Alvin is trying.
Bragg is a Happy Meal for the “diversity, inclusion, and equity” crowd. Nothing brings bigger smiles to their faces than foisting unintelligent, untalented, poorly skilled “of color” or gender box checks on mostly “of color” Democrat-ruined urban communities around the country. In NYC, it makes those fashionable, progressive Upper West Side dinner parties so… perky.
Other than the quixotic quest to get Trump, Bragg’s primary duty as a Soros sock puppet is to free mostly “of color” murderers, rapists, child molesters, gangbangers, and robbers. Or not charge them in the first place. Soros and his ilk demand it. The riffraff are victims, after all, of “systemic white racism.” Why, racial justice demands it.
Certainly, said victims of white racism would never, ever have murdered and raped but for whitey’s oppression. The irony is -- actually, it’s demonic more than ironic -- when Bragg frees these scourges, where do they go?
Do they pack their bags for white precincts? Suburban Topeka? How about piney Fayetteville? Hmm… Butte? Nah. They return to the brilliantly urban renewed slums from whence they crawled… return to terrorize and prey upon the “of color” denizens, who are struggling to survive another day.
Whitey’s victims slither from slums to terrorize and brutalize the law-abiding elsewhere. For instance, the “Latinx” bodega shopkeeper, Jose Alba, who for the crime of defending himself against a couple of downtrodden, was arrested and packed off to Ryker’s Island. Bragg intended to indict Alba for the unpardonable crime of having the wrong pigmentation and defending self against the “of color” oppressed, but public blowback proved too great, even for a Soros sock puppet. Bragg backed down. A sumptuous meal must have soothed his bruised sense of justice.
BLACK CRIMES WE'VE ALL WITNESSED:
Or -- here surmised as pastime -- racial injustice legions venture into New York’s subways to terrorize riders or push the unsuspecting onto train tracks. Or… target Asians (usually females and the old) for old-fashioned beatings. And while this mayhem sinks the Rotted Apple into an ever-deeper abyss of crime and dysfunction, Bragg just shrugs. As policy, Bragg shrugs.
Bragg and other Soros-owned big city DAs and elected leaders marching orders have nothing to do with putting hombres behind bars and upholding the highest standards of public safety. They have nothing to do with the canard of “racial justice.” They have to do with the Marxist imperative of destroying to rule over the ruins. Better to rein in Hell than serve in Heaven.
About Asian Americans and immigrants, well, yellow isn’t a color on the “of color” palette. As a rule, Asians just can’t get with the victimology scam. Another rule: Asians dare to be industrious, thrifty, highly disciplined, and very focused.
Go to the takeout around the corner from you. Mr. Yang and his kin are busting tail in the kitchen and at the counter. Mr. Yang’s kids? Sitting at a table cracking schoolbooks. His kids are going to be doctors, lawyers, engineers, and tech entrepreneurs -- and not because of dumbed-downed diversity standards, but because of sweat equity and bona fide achievement.
For the sin of genuine merit -- when will believing in the American Dream be criminalized? -- the Yangs and Asians of all stripes are loathed by the diversity, inclusion, and equity mob, particularly affluent, progressive whites who fear their kids will be outperformed and outcompeted for prized higher education berths.
Asians, in the main, refuse to present themselves as victims. They disrupt the progressive narrative. They unintentionally mock it. Taking control of one’s destiny is verboten. Asians chose to be hardworking achievers, not excuse makers, haters, and shakedown artists. And isn’t that the pith of the diversity, inclusion, and equity racket?
Asians are powerful testaments to merit, while Bragg and other diversity mongers are anything but meritorious. They’re subpar grifters and moochers. So toward Asians, these counterfeits let flow torrents of seething resentment.
For further proof, we need only visit other poxes on the American landscape. Soros buys DAs. He means to add to the stable.
Kim Foxx, Cook County State’s Attorney, holds her office thanks to Boss Soros’ largess. Cook County contains Chicago, which even Al Capone, resurrected, might avoid for fear of being gang jumped.
Back in 2020, Soros kicked a couple of million into a committee backing Foxx’s election. Since Foxx became State’s Attorney, Chicago’s lowlifes have enjoyed an open-ended holiday -- from arrest, indictment, and almost certain conviction.
The Windy City’s “of color” neighborhoods are nightly scenes of melees, as gangbangers compete for turf and use streets for gun battles that put the OK Corral dustup to shame. “Of color” are disproportionately the victims -- including kids and the old.
Reports CBS Chicago, blandly, “Data Show Violent Crime Has Been On The Rise For The Last Three Years.”
Curiosity about the trend is how it lines up with Chicago’s dysfunctional leadership.
The trend roughly tracks Foxx’s tenure and the rein of outgoing Chicago mayor Beetlejuice, aka, Lori Lightfoot, another laughable elected diversity hire who checked three boxes: black, female (alleged), and LGBTQIA+.
Prior to Foxx’s election, far fewer criminal cases were dismissed cases in Cook County, according to data posted by the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office. In 2015, 263 weapons charges were dismissed, compared to 1,217 in 2022.
The Cook County Medical Examiner Case Archive registered 619 homicides county wide in 2015, rising to 937 in 2022.
So, why on this side of fabled Cabrini-Green would Foxx’s office post such painfully damning numbers? Perhaps Foxx’s bulb is dimmer than Bragg’s, or in the perverse world of racial justice warriorship, this amounts to bragging rights?
Hanging tough in St. Louis, diversity hire Kim Gardiner, whom Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is sensibly trying to oust. Seems that white racist Bailey has seen enough “of color” St. Louis citizens preyed upon by Gardiner’s malicious policies.
Lest we think diversity hires get all Soros’ favors and fun, Philadelphia district attorney, White Boy Larry Krasner -- brotherly love oozing from his pores -- looses Philly’s criminals on everybody, including “of color” citizens. Ditto L.A. district attorney, White Boy George Gascón.
But back to Bragg. This week, this Einstein and Thomas E. Dewey all rolled into one will have managed to drag an empaneled Grand Jury into indicting Trump on some threadbare, banana republic sham charge or he won’t -- that is, if the Grand Jury acts with uncharacteristic independence.
Or Bragg will reveal himself to have feet of Carvel ice cream. His star witness is none other than Michael Cohen, convicted felon and serial liar. Cohen, in part, was convicted of false statements. A Cohen letter about paying off Stormy Daniels without Trump’s knowledge holds the president blameless of a false charge, anyway. Bragg putting Cohen on the stand knowing Cohen committed perjury should cost Bragg more than losing VIP treatment at Golden Corral; it should cost him his law license.
Should. In New York City, where diversity, inclusion, and equity abound, Bragg is more likely to get off with winks, nods, and a free meal at Gramercy Tavern.

Had he been a Thomas Sowell, an Allen West, or Ben Carson, or even the liberal Colin Powell, a patriot who loved his country and recognized the significance of a Black man winning the American Presidency. But, no, that man was not a patriot. He was instead a community organizing, race-baiting, anti-American, cult-Marxist agitator. He was Barack Hussein Obama, who presided over the greatest lost opportunity in American history.

The rhetoric and uproar over the beating death of Trye Nichols by five Black police officers in Memphis, Tennessee, demonstrates how badly the “conversation” over race has deteriorated. One would think that a crime involving Blacks killing another Black would lack a racial angle to exploit. Alas, in today’s race-obsessed universe that is never the case. Unable to help themselves, our nation’s top racialists, beginning with President Joe Biden, weighed in on the controversy hurling the standard epithets of “systemic racism” and “White supremacy.” The media, and others, were happy to join in.
With the Brown v. Board of Education decision in 1954 ending “separate but equal,” the Civil Rights legislation of the sixties, affirmative action, and “Great Society,” with its trillions of dollars of wealth transfers to Blacks, one might have considered that, nearly sixty years later, the nation would mend and race relations improve.
Indeed, the emergence of Barack Obama and his ascension to the Presidency in 2008 suggested that that moment had arrived. The event should have been an inflection point in America’s racial history. Many thought it was. How else to explain a White majority nation electing a Black President, other than that America had turned the corner? Alas, Obama was not one to placate the nation. Rather than use the opportunity of his rise to the White House as the crowning achievement of a long treacherous journey to racial reconciliation, he chose instead to agitate and polarize the nation further. His presidency should have represented the fulfillment of the great dream of Lincoln, King, and of our Declaration of Independence, but became instead the basis of an ever-widening racial gap that may never be bridged.
Of his many racial stunts, perhaps the worst moment occurred during the Trayvon Martin affair. After the shooting death of the young Black, Obama famously stated that “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon.” The statement was provocative. Rather than pacify the nation, he inflamed it. He seemed to dismiss his White mother and the White grandparents who raised him. He, thus, injected his own biases into the controversy. As in so many other instances, rather than seek a peaceful resolution, he roiled the nation further.
The Trayvon Martin episode (like so many others) had, indeed, unleashed the furies emanating from the dark underside of racial politics and grievance in America; and it was not a pretty sight. It revolved around a simple narrative that had become the essence of a vast and elaborate racial industry that had grown and metastasized through the decades.
The narrative was as plain as it was destructive: it was that America was racist to the core, institutionally and categorically, and no matter what progress the nation made, no matter the multitude of unparalleled triumphs Blacks enjoyed, the stain and moral culpability would never be erased.
It did not matter that Blacks occupied the highest echelons of American wealth, power, and influence in the country, even the Presidency, the attorney general's office, the halls of Congress, governors' mansions, city halls, in the media, the academy, Hollywood, the music and entertainment world, sports, business, fashion, medicine, and law.
Nor did it matter that a vast complex of diversity programs, appointments, set asides, quotas, contracts, gerrymandered districts, anti-discrimination laws, voting rights, and wealth transfers have been instituted on behalf of Blacks, or that extensive bureaucracies and organizations have been brought into existence to protect and cater to the needs of Blacks.
Nor did it matter that Blacks, Black achievement, and Black culture were embraced, that Blacks received extensive preferential treatment and subsidies, or that a substantial political/media broadside was triggered for virtually any perceived racial slight or slur to defend Black sensitivities.
Nor did it matter that the United States was bar none the single greatest place in the world for a young Black to live and grow.
The narrative would not go away, for Obama and the race industry would not allow it; they had too much to lose, too much lucre and power to forfeit; it existed to ensure that the race catechism was never forgotten, and brandished as a sharp sword at a moment's notice.
George Zimmerman was only the latest foil at the time (and many since). The episodes of prior racial industry clampdowns were well known. Bernie Goetz, Crown Heights, Tawana Brawley, Jena 6, Henry Louis Gates, Duke-Lacrosse, and then Zimmerman, all saw the race industry in full attack mode, unleashing the power of its divisions, the integrated machinery of media, politicians, unions, activists, hucksters, protesters, administrators, academicians, lawyers, civil rights groups, bureaucracies and organizations unwinding themselves on the national stage, targeting victims, wrecking lives, and reinforcing the crucial race narrative upon which their careers and livelihoods depended.
The guilt or innocence of the protagonists hardly mattered. No one knew if Zimmerman committed a crime. But that was immaterial. Zimmerman’s offense was not legal but political.
If the man who pulled the trigger had been named Sanchez or had been a Black, it would have been a non-story, having failed the race template, no different than the thousands of Blacks killed every year by other Blacks that go unreported.
That he was Hispanic disturbed the tidy narrative of White racism and placed dueling liberal pieties at odds; and so a new ethnicity was discovered: the “White Hispanic.”
But the Hispanic dimension is troubling for the race crowd. It needs to look hard into the future for the demographics are not favorable. Hispanic Americans, when their numbers are great enough, will discard the temporary alliance they may have with Blacks and will not be patient with Black demands and Black victimhood. Having had nothing to do with slavery and being members of an “oppressed minority” themselves, there will be no pool of White guilt from which to extract wealth transfers or preferential treatment of any kind.
Indeed, the window for Blacks is closing quickly and the future is grim. Instead of seeking liberty, accomplishment, and full integration into American society, they have followed the admonitions of the race industry into a ghetto of cultural breakdown, unemployment, criminality, and poverty, to their own deepening detriment. They have accepted liberalism's nostrums for Black dysfunction, embraced liberalism's assumptions of their inability to compete and requirement for ever-expanding government largesse; they have been mined by the race industry for votes and money; furthermore, they have learned to resent bitterly their country, the “White patriarchy,” and to believe that the cards were stacked against them. They have been led into a house of poverty and despair.
One would be hard pressed to devise a more disabling ideology than this.
And the man who did more to perpetuate and exacerbate their dysfunction and misery while deepening the division of the nation, was none other than the one who could have actually ended it -- had the first Black President been a different man. Had he been a Thomas Sowell, an Allen West, or Ben Carson, or even the liberal Colin Powell, a patriot who loved his country and recognized the significance of a Black man winning the American Presidency. But, no, that man was not a patriot. He was instead a community organizing, race-baiting, anti-American, cult-Marxist agitator. He was Barack Hussein Obama, who presided over the greatest lost opportunity in American history.

here is only one way to say that Biden is innocent, and that is for Obama to announce, “I told Joe he could take the documents.” However, if Obama makes that announcement, he has conceded, and all the Dems will be forced to concede, that a president can declassify documents simply by walking them out of the White House or authorizing someone else to do so.
In other words, to exonerate Biden, Obama must also exonerate Trump from the disgraceful, deeply (criminally?) dishonest charge leveled against Trump. I get a real kick imagining Obama sitting in the lavishly decorated office of one of his three luxury homes, cursing to himself that you can always trust Joe Biden to “F” things up.

Obviously Obama must have been successful since the Biden Crime Family’s activities went unreported on by most of the news media prior to the 2020 presidential election. Even now there’s been a reluctance to report on anything associated with the claims of illegal – indeed impeachable offenses by Joe Biden.

Victor Davis Hanson: Biden is the most dangerously radical President in US history
JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze. JB SHURK
Installed (p)Resident Joe Biden loves to make promises secured by the supposed worth of his family name. "I give you my word as a Biden," he said back in March of 2020, "When I'm president, I will lead with science, listen to the experts and heed their advice, and always tell you the truth." Again giving his solemn word before the 2020 mail-in ballot presidential selection, he promised both "to turn division into unity and bring us together," as well as to "be an ally of the light, not the darkness." Just over a week ago, he declared, "My word as a Biden: I've never been more optimistic about America's future than I am today." My goodness, if only Biden's family name possessed more value than that of Benedict Arnold's, we would be blessed with a man in the White House committed to truth, unity, spiritual guidance, and American success. Yet Biden's name is synonymous with none of those things, is it?
Instead, the Biden family name has really stood for only two things: buffoonery and corruption. For fifty years, Joe Biden has managed to hold onto some slice of power in D.C. as a senator, vice president, and Oval Office stooge not because he is renowned for his erudition or virtue but rather because his doltish behavior and venal character make him ideal for others to control. Perhaps no other Washington relic has accomplished so little for the American people over such a prolonged government career or managed to harness those defects for lucrative advancement more successfully than China Joe.
He is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze.
Perhaps when America's Scumbucket-in-Chief gives his "word as a Biden," he is depending upon the solid reputations of notable relatives. Alas, no. His brother James has been repeatedly implicated in allegations of fraud and quid-pro-quo financial schemes leveraging Joe's political office as a means to advance the Biden family's interests and wealth. His daughter Ashley struggles with sex and drug addictions, problems she has attributed in part to her memories of taking showers with her dad at a young age (no wonder Creepy Joe excuses pedophilia and transgender madness so effortlessly). And then there is the "smartest guy" Joe claims to know — his son Hunter — whose illegal drug use; sexual debauchery with prostitutes, employees, and relatives alike; gun crimes; occupation as an undeclared foreign agent; and serially-excused role as the family's point man for turning the powers of Joe's political office into seedy profit are all well known to the American people (even if habitually ignored by the corrupt Department of [in]Justice). In any other family concerned about its reputation for probity and honor, Hunter Biden would have been cast off as some sort of uncontrollable "black sheep." In the Biden herd, though, Hunter blends right in with his unseemly, scuzzy kin. The Biden pedigree is made from rotten stuff — more like a pustule than a bloodline and filled with dreck, mediocrity, selfishness, pusillanimity, and unrepentant sin.
When you stop to consider how shockingly meaningless Joe's "word as a Biden" schtick really is, it actually becomes tempting to consider whether the old, fatuous fraud is ironically — and just this once — telling the American people the truth! Perhaps when he says, "I give you my word as a Biden," he is really saying: "I give you my word as an incestuous pervert who cannot learn to keep my hands off little girls or keep from sniffing and grabbing women against their will; as a shameless liar who distorts everything, including the circumstances of my own wife and daughter's tragic deaths, when those lies induce public sympathy or are otherwise advantageous; as a plagiarist with no original thoughts or accomplishments of my own; as a lifelong racist who has had many friendships with segregationists and race hustlers while lying about having been active in the civil rights movement; as a corrupt politician who has ties to the mob and whose family has profited generously from my public office; and as a traitor to the United States who has repeatedly sold out my country for the benefit of foreign interests in Ukraine, China, and anywhere else I can make a buck."
I guess when you see how long it would take to vomit forth that mouthful of insidious nastiness, using the shorthand, "I give you my word as a Biden," just means that whatever is said next is almost certainly untrue.
Seen from that perspective, Biden's time as installed president makes a lot more sense. When he promised to unite the country by ridding it of petty divisions, what he really meant was that he planned to exacerbate racial animosities to the best of his abilities, rub salt in old wounds to ensure intolerance festers and anguish lingers, and incite hatred among groups of Americans who would otherwise get along. When he promised to "bring us together," he meant that he would promote propaganda reframing the J6 protest for fair elections as an "insurrection" seeking to topple the government and use that laughably fraudulent pretense as an excuse to persecute and imprison his political enemies. When he promised to be "an ally of the light, not the darkness," he meant that he would threaten concerned parents with criminal prosecution should they resist the government's program of sexualizing childhood, encouraging bodily mutilation, brainwashing innocents with "transgender" delusions, and promoting abortion-on-demand.
When he promised to "lead with science," he meant that he would use the unscrutinized declarations of unelected government health bureaucrats with secret political agendas as a sword and shield for imposing a dictatorship of unconstitutional mandates, censorship, ephemeral freedoms, and unjust orders contrary to established law. When he promised to "listen to the experts and heed their advice," he meant that he would further empower an already-out-of-control Deep State to police Americans' thoughts and words for alleged "misinformation" and "hate"; expand the national security surveillance State to spy on Americans' every move; and target for criminal punishment those who nonetheless insist on engaging in "wrongthink." When he promised to "always tell you the truth," he meant that his administration would construct "politically correct" falsehoods, propagate those falsehoods through a willingly compliant and compromised State-aligned news media, vilify dissent as harmful "disinformation," and characterize contrary viewpoints as mere "conspiracy theories."
Finally, when Biden recently claimed that he has "never been more optimistic about America's future," what he meant is that he has given China permission to send spy balloons loaded with explosives across the continent; criminal cartels permission to flood America with illegal aliens; the pharmaceutical companies permission to reap windfall profits from harmful, untested, yet government-mandated products; the World Health Organization and United Nations permission to usurp U.S. sovereignty; the Federal Reserve permission to print money on our way to economic Armageddon; and the World Economic Forum permission to usher in a "great reset" of centralized control and loss of individual liberty. Surely all that carnage is worth a relatively small finder's fee of 10%.
When Commie Joe's statements are viewed in their proper context, he is just a presidential truth-teller. Really. After all, he gives us his word as a Biden!
BLAME THE OBOMB FOR THE BIDEN DEBACLE? - THE ONLY REASON THE BANKSTER REGIME OF GAMER LAWYERS BARACK OBAMA AND ERIC HOLDER WANTED 'FUCK UP' JOE BIDEN AS V.P. WAS BECAUSE 'CREDIT CARD' JOE WAS A DOCUMENTED BANKSTERS' RENT BOY
New revelations about Hunter will hit President Joe Biden's already plummeting popularity
During Obama’s presidency, everyone joked that he selected Biden for VP because Biden’s incompetency insured that Obama would never be impeached. Yes, Obama was bad, but Biden would be worse. Now that Biden’s the president, that joke was 100% correct. Sadly, he’s multiple times worse than anyone imagined. Biden has more failures in one year than most presidents have in a lifetime – the Afghanistan debacle and surrender, huge crime spikes due to Democrat “defund the police” insanity, actively working to destroy the petroleum industry while supporting Russia’s, soaring inflation, open support and deference to China, and his weakness being directly responsible for Putin’s invasion of Ukraine -- to name just a few epic failures. As bad as Biden is as president, it’s obvious he selected Harris for the same reason that Obama selected him -- to insure he’s never removed from office. If you think things can’t possibly get worse, just look at Harris and you instantly realize – yes, they can. She would be multiple times worse than Joe.
Joe Biden, who couldn't even get President Obama's endorsement during the primaries, now has word that Obama may well use him as his marionette stooge for what's in fact a third Obama term.

BARACK OBAMA
Nickname(s): Barry O’Bummer, the Choom Gangsta, Hussein in the Membrane
Occupation: Serial memoirist, nicotine addict, property owner, Netflix producer, secret Muslim, 44th president of the United States
Background: “Born” in “Hawaii” in 1961, B. Hussein Obama moved with his mother at age six to Indonesia and ate dog meat. He returned to Hawaii years later to join the Honolulu-based “choom gang” and experiment with drugs before “enrolling” at Occidental College, followed by Columbia, followed by Harvard Law School. After publishing his first memoir at age 33, Obama worked in the Illinois state government under the tutelage of left-wing terrorist Bill Ayers before getting elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004 and immediately running for president to validate his preternatural self-regard. Mission accomplished.
Hobbies: Hanging out with celebs, drinking wine with “interesting Italians,” and complainingabout his wife’s literary success. Being wrong about politics might even be considered one of Obama’s hobbies. In 2016, for example, he backed Hillary Clinton over his own vice president. We all know how that turned out. In 2020, Obama was “enamored” with failed candidate Beto O’Rourke and feared Joe Biden would “dishonor himself” by running. He didn’t even donate to Biden’s campaign.
Hates freedom? Without question.
Why/how? Where to begin? As president Obama relished every opportunity to apologize for American exceptionalism, which he dismissively likened to “British exceptionalism” or “Greek exceptionalism.” His signature move when greeting foreign leaders was the submissive bow. He brazenly lied about whether Americans would be able to keep their doctors following the passage of Obamacare. He repeatedly expressed frustration with the fact that he was merely president of the United States, as opposed to an “emperor” or “dictator” with total authority to decide how the American people should live their lives. Apart from coddling terrorists, his signature foreign policy achievements include presiding over the death of an American ambassador in Benghazi and cozying up to the anti-American regimes in Iran and Cuba.
Claim(s) to shame: Generally speaking, Obama is a pathological narcissist who journalists lustily admired as president because he reminded them so much of themselves and satisfied their overwhelming desire to publicly demonstrate opposition to racism and other bad things. He resented the American people for constantly letting him down, and behaved as though the office of the presidency was beneath him. In March 2014, for example, Obama refused to let Russia’s impending annexation of Crimea spoil his vacation plans. “I needed this,” he told former NBA star Alonzo Mourning and other guests at the Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo. “I needed the golf. I needed to laugh.”
Fun fact(s): Obama is the first former president since Dwight Eisenhower, commander of the D-Day invasion, to compose a multi-volume memoir about his time in office. During the 2012 election, the Choom Gangsta voted for himself at precisely 4:20 p.m.
What’s next? Becoming the first ex-president billionaire, finishing his third memoir, and eventually publishing a 900-page novel that reviewers will unanimously praise as “Holden Caulfield meets Ta-Nehisi Coates … an intellectual call to arms,” because they’ll be too gutless to admit it’s rather tedious and overwrought.
OBAMA'S WINDING PATH TO A THIRD TERM WILL BE THROUGH GEOGE SOROS!
This is a win for the likes of Pelosi who want to turn the U.S. into a third-world dictatorship where government agencies such as law enforcement and the judiciary are used to target opponents and outlaw political opposition.
THE GLOBALIST DEMOCRAT PARTY FOR BANKSTER BAILOUTS, WALL STREET, OPEN BORDERS FOR MORE "CHEAP" LABOR AND WELFARE FOR WALL STREET...“That our Democratic Party is not the party that is of, by, and for the people. It is a party that has been and continues to be influenced by the foreign policy establishment in Washington represented by Hillary Clinton and others' foreign policy, by the military-industrial complex, and other greedy corporate interests,”
REP. TULSI GABBARD
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DEMOCRAT PARTY? DIDN'T IT START WITH BILLARY CLINTON, WHO WORKED HAND IN HAND WITH 'CREDIT CARD' JOE BIDEN FOR BANKSTERS AND TO PERPETRATE NAFTA???
I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to nuclear war. TULSI GABBARD
HOW MANY OF THESE ARE PARASITE GAMER LAWYERS?...............EVERY SINGLE ONE BUT PELOSI AND TRUMP.
Why it matters: Soros’s potential links to Bragg have become a hot-button issue after the prosecutor charged former president Donald Trump over alleged hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels. Republicans say that Soros, who funds numerous anti-Trump causes, helped Bragg get into office. Democrats have in turn accused Republicans of pushing anti-Semitic conspiracy theories that Soros, who is Jewish, is pulling the strings of the Trump investigation.
Context: Soros is by far the largest donor to Color of Change PAC, a left-wing group that was Bragg’s biggest campaign contributor. Color of Change in May 2021 pledged to spend $1 million to support Bragg’s campaign. Days after the endorsement, Soros contributed $1 million to Color of Change PAC. That was by far the largest individual donation to Color of Change that year. The next largest contribution was $50,000, according to campaign finance records.
Soros has given $1,450,000 in all directly to Color of Change PAC and millions more through other committees he funds. Democracy PAC, which is funded almost entirely by Soros, gave $2.5 million to Color of Change PAC in 2020, records show.
A progressive group called Win Justice contributed $2,025,133 to Color of Change PAC in 2020. Soros is by far that group’s biggest backer. He gave $5 million of his own money to Win Justice in 2018 and another $5 million through Democracy PAC in 2020.
Color of Change, which has long called for Trump’s prosecution, praised the Trump indictment on Thursday.
"In this historic moment, Color Of Change applauds New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who refused to let corporate influence, racist right-wing attacks, and threats of violence interfere with holding the former president accountable. This is the kind of political courage we need from every district attorney in the country," said Color of Change president Rashad Robinson, who is perhaps best known for stoking actor Jussie Smollett’s hate crime hoax.
Analysis: Soros says that he "did not contribute" to Bragg and has never met the prosecutor.
"I think some on the right would rather focus on far-fetched conspiracy theories than on the serious charges against the former president," he told Semafor.
While Soros did not write a check directly to Bragg’s campaign, his cash almost certainly flowed to the prosecutor’s election war chest through the anti-police, anti-Trump Color of Change PAC. Regardless of whatever pressure Soros did or did not place on Bragg’s investigation, both he and Color of Change are happy with the outcome, as indicated by their statements about Trump’s indictment.
Pelosi's Tweet Reveals the Real Intentions Behind Trump’s Indictment
Pelosi claimed that the Grand Jury has acted upon the facts and the law.
So let’s look at the facts first.
President Trump has denied the affair with Stormy Daniel. In a 2018 letter that surfaced recently, Daniel also denied that the affair ever occurred, despite claiming otherwise in public.
Another 2018 letter proves that neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction. Also, Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen was not reimbursed for the payment by any organizations affiliated to Trump.
Since the transaction didn’t occur at Trump’s behest, the case has no basis.
Even if Trump had directed Cohen to make hush payments and the Trump Organization had reimbursed him for the payment to Daniels but billed them as legal expenses, it would constitute a misdemeanor for which the statute of limitations has run out.
Back to Pelosi’s tweet. Pelosi wrote:
“No one is above the law, and everyone has the right to a trial to prove innocence.”
This is nothing short of a shocking statement, especially from a lawmaker with many decades of experience. The presumption of innocence is the standard in any civilized democracy -- anyone accused of any crime is considered innocent until proven guilty. The legal burden of proof lies on the prosecution, which must present compelling face-based evidence to before a judge or a jury. The prosecution must prove that the accused is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If reasonable doubt remains, the accused must be acquitted.
“It is a cardinal principle of our system of justice that every person accused of a crime is presumed to be innocent unless and until his or her guilt is established beyond a reasonable doubt. The presumption is not a mere formality. It is a matter of the most important substance.
The presumption of innocence alone may be sufficient to raise a reasonable doubt and to require the acquittal of a defendant. The defendant before you, [__________], has the benefit of that presumption throughout the trial, and you are not to convict [him/her] of a particular charge unless you are persuaded of [his/her] guilt of that charge beyond a reasonable doubt.
The presumption of innocence until proven guilty means that the burden of proof is always on the government to satisfy you that [defendant] is guilty of the crime with which [he/she] is charged beyond a reasonable doubt. The law does not require that the government prove guilt beyond all possible doubt; proof beyond a reasonable doubt is sufficient to convict. This burden never shifts to [defendant]. It is always the government's burden to prove each of the elements of the crime[s] charged beyond a reasonable doubt by the evidence and the reasonable inferences to be drawn from that evidence. [Defendant] has the right to rely upon the failure or inability of the government to establish beyond a reasonable doubt any essential element of a crime charged against [him/her].
If, after fair and impartial consideration of all the evidence, you have a reasonable doubt as to [defendant]'s guilt of a particular crime, it is your duty to acquit [him/her] of that crime. On the other hand, if, after fair and impartial consideration of all the evidence, you are satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt of [defendant]'s guilt of a particular crime, you should vote to convict [him/her].”
It is unlikely that Pelosi isn’t aware of the legal standards in the U.S. Perhaps her feeling of schadenfreude got the better of her, or maybe this is a warning for others who support the MAGA agenda. Pelosi know that such claims will receive no condemnation in D.C. because the target is President Trump.
Thankfully Elon Musk’s Twitter flagged Pelosi’s Tweet and presented context to it in the community notes feature.
So are there any countries where the accused is guilty until proven innocent?
They are mostly third-world countries or theocratic or military dictatorships where the might of the law is used to target opponents and dissidents. Irrespective of what their constitution says, dissidents were presumed guilty until proven innocent.
This is how the law operated in Stalin's Russia, Nazi Germany, Mussolini's Italy, Franco’s Spain etc.
It is not just President Trump who has been the recipient of this treatment. The January 6th protestors held in the District of Columbia jail have complained of being subjected to inhumane conditions. The constant delays in hearings and postponements dragged out for over a year caused so much trauma to one of the accused that he committed suicide.
This remains the goal behind the exercise, to make the process the punishment.
To drag the trial along, and to drain all their resources and spirits of the accused. To sully reputations permanently. To make the accused feel worse than the worst of criminals in the U.S.
They know that these stories spread like wildfire and most people seeking a life of peace for themselves and their families choose to refrain from challenging the Democrats merely to avoid hardships.
Doubtlessly many citizens must have refrained from showing any overt support to the MAGA cause for fear of being persecuted by the Democrats.
This is a win for the likes of Pelosi who want to turn the U.S. into a third-world dictatorship where government agencies such as law enforcement and the judiciary are used to target opponents and outlaw political opposition.
Their goal is to have a single-party state.
Yes, there will be Republicans and Democrats who disagree in minor issues, but on all the major issues of consequence there is a total consensus.
The ball is now in the court of the Republicans and the citizens all over the nation.
In perilous times, there is no greater sin than inaction.
3. CORRUPTION IN THE FBI: The malicious and ethics-free raid on Mar-a-Lago is viewed even by many Democrats and all Republicans as vicious political intimidation, with the goal of destroying any followers of Donald Trump. This began in earnest during the "Russia collusion" case and saw its culmination in midnight raids of innocent conservatives revealing a hateful, vengeful vigilantism on the part of the radical left. In the hope that supporters of Trump and other conservative candidates would drop out of politics in fear of similar reprisals, these Gestapo tactics have not only solidified Trump's support and the support of even moderately conservative candidates, but have shown the Left to be petty children in a deranged, red-haze temper tantrum.
THE OBJECTIVE OF GEORGE SOROS IS TO COMPLETE BARACK OBAMA'S DIVISIONIST VISION OF AMERICA AND TO PUT THE CORPORATIST BANKSTER-OWNED BARACK BACK INTO THE WHITE HOUSE FOR A THIRD TERM FOR LIFE.
His antipathy for the United States is pathological and he has spent his billions on countless projects to bring this nation to its knees.
Obama lets the cat out of the bag: He's got plans to make Joe Biden his stooge
Joe Biden, who couldn't even get President Obama's endorsement during the primaries, now has word that Obama may well use him as his marionette stooge for what's in fact a third Obama term.
He's not even trying to hide it.
OPERATION OBOMB: Barack Obama, Eric Holder and their bankster paymasters plan coup.
Barack Obama was famous not wanting to leave office when his term was done and well known for projecting a sense of entitlement to power.
“Obama’s new home in Washington has been described as the “nerve center” of the anti-Trump opposition.

George Soros-funded DAs, AGs and secretaries of state were not chosen for their intellectual firepower but for their loyalty
George Soros has for decades sought to destroy America as founded. Jewish by birth but a Nazi by choice, it is not hyperbolic to call him a devil incarnate. He is perhaps the most purely evil human who has used his vast wealth solely for malevolent purposes. His antipathy for the United States is pathological and he has spent his billions on countless projects to bring this nation to its knees.
Like any and every Marxist, he advocates for chaos. The man is Faust’s Mephistopheles, Satan, and Lucifer all rolled into a one-man wicked wrecking ball who should have been stopped decades ago. Now he has installed carefully chosen serfs for all the wrong reasons, numerous DAs, AGs, and Secretaries of State throughout the country to do his bidding – to effect Cloward and PIven! DAs like Alvin Bragg got their orders from Soros’ headquarters with the $1.1m Soros funneled to install him in office. Soros does not spend his money on smart people. He spends on people he can depend upon to do what he tells them to do: Get Trump. See Alan Dershowitz’s book.
Bragg, elected in 2021, has been a disaster for Manhattan. He refuses to seek bail or sentences for violent criminals – armed robbery, drug dealing, violent attacks on innocent civilians and burglary. Nine of the prosecutors in the Manhattan office quit when he announced his pro-criminal agenda. He was installed for one reason, one reason only, to facilitate crime and to take down Donald Trump. I hope that, along with all the other Soros-installed DAs, he will go down in flames when his pro-criminal, anti-Americanism becomes clear. How did he even pass the bar? Has he even read the Constitution?
Chesa Boudin, former DA in San Francisco, has been recalled; by San Franciscans! Los Angeles DA George Gascon was effectively recalled but the left’s expertise at cheating has kept him in office. Under Gascon, homicide rates have soared as has shoplifting by mobs of looters who are never arrested.
Kim Foxx, DA in Chicago, is another of Soros’s tools, the one who dropped charges against Jussie Smollett! On her watch Chicago has endured the largest spike in murder in over thirty years. Larry Krasner in Philadelphia, Kim Gardner in St. Louis; she has been caught lying about police officers who pulled her over, has admitted to campaign finance violations and saw her city become the murder capital of the country. There are so many more. Crime in each of these cities has escalated catastrophically as if by Soros magic. Soros Dso proud.
The democrat party, no longer remotely liberal but Marxist, does not care about anything but keeping Trump out the White House so Soros’s meddling in our politics is just fine with them. They have long embraced Soros’s money, for themselves and for however much of his illegal and unconstitutional election interference it takes to win. They do not mind his putting morons in office as long as they do what they are told. Indicting Trump? Bragg is doing what he’s been told to do.
Unsurprisingly, Katie Hobbs, the illegitimate governor of Arizona, is a Soros slave. He got her elected as Arizona’s Secretary of State. She apparently wants her state’s border with Mexico to remain open. She supports the sexual grooming of children in schools, CRT, etc. She’s an enemy of her state. Alvin Bragg is an enemy of his state and is so brazen he is now outed himself as an enemy of the law. He is a classic useful idiot. He probably has no idea that he has opened Pandora’s Box and that he will likely be consumed by the illegitimacy of his folly.
Like every member of Biden’s cabinet, who were chosen for their skin color or sexual orientation, none of Soros’s DAs were chosen for the intellectual competence. They were selected to do the radical left’s bidding, Soros’s bidding – promote crime, create chaos – destructive riots, violence, etc. That is what Bragg’s indictment of Trump is meant to do as well.
The left is hoping for violence they can pin on Trump supporters but if violence occurs, it will be, like J6, calculated by the left, incited by Antifa and/or FBI/CIA embeds, or paid for by Soros via many of his front organizations. Those institutions have many years of experience at exactly that sort of exercise. They learned their craft from the FBI, the CIA and the DOJ. Now some Americans know how corrupt each of those agencies is and under Biden are likely remain corrupt.
Bragg’s indictment of Trump should be the most serious wake-up call for all Americans. While it began under Obama, America is being transformed into a police state, one where people are being imprisoned for their dissent from the regime’s narrative. We no longer enjoy freedom of speech or religion. Ask any mildly conservative college student. They cannot speak freely without being cancelled, punished or expelled.
Our elections are not at all secure or fair. The Biden administration is bogus, achieved by massive fraud. And now they have indicted the former and potentially future President in yet another ruse to take him down and out. Chances are he will not go quietly into that good night. He should have all of us at his back fighting the good fight.
There was a time when we elected people of integrity and expertise in their chosen field. This is no longer the case. Wokery - CRT, DEI, ESG, LGB, transgenderism, etc. – these nonsensical ideologies are killing us, destroying academia, indoctrinating our young people. The globalists want to erase national boundaries, erase national sovereignty. They want to ban any and all religious faiths and make serfs of us all. The WEF and China are fast on our heels. They are winning with Biden’s willing capitulation.
The Alvin Braggs are weapons in their war against the American people who want only to preserve the freedoms the Founders designed for us.
Disgraced former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried tried to build a political empire to rival Democrat megadonor George Soros.
Puck News reporter Theodore Schleifer wrote that Bankman-Fried personally bought a Democrat startup, Deck, spending roughly $4 to $5 million to buy out the existing investors to the Democrat analytics firm. Bankman-Fried reportedly heard about the startup from Mind the Gap, a Democrat donor network founded by his mother, Barbara Bankman-Fried.
The purchase of Deck served as Bankman-Fried’s political scheme to be the “biggest donor in the Democratic Party,” even outshining Democrat megadonor.

Bankman-Fried and Ryan Salame, co-CEO of FTX Digital Markets, served as two of the largest donors to Republicans and Democrats last cycle. Bankman-Fried fell just below Soros as the largest Democrat donor.

In all, Bankman-Fried donated roughly $40 million to Democrat politicians and PACs, while Salame gave about $23 million to Republicans and PACs supporting the GOP.
Puck News wrote that the former FTX CEO sought advisers and conducted data experiments to help Democrats in the 2024 election cycle:
I have previously reported that S.B.F.’s team was actively looking for future advisors to join them in drafting “plays” for the 2024 cycle, and that one of those ideas was to fund some more progressive organizations, for instance. Some of those plans were already underway. I have learned in recent days that S.B.F. was already quietly funding some experiments across the Democratic ecosystem, such as randomized-controlled trials that might have yielded data that could help Democrats in 2024, according to two people familiar with the work, by assessing the impact of things like community newsletters, Facebook ads, and so-called “relational organizing.”
In all, the report suggested that Bankman-Fried might have spent roughly $100 million, but according to Schleifer, “That could be an undercount.”

The old Democrat Party is gone. In its place is a radical Libertine Party, full of itself and full of radical sexual, cultural, and economic ideas that have all but killed their chances of ever getting legitimately elected again. The following five things are what I believe has murdered the Democrat Party in its sleep:
1. CRT: Critical Race Theory in all its permutations, regardless of its origins and history, has become the banner of anti-white racism, disguising itself as "anti-racism." Under its banner, white people are told they are worthless, toxic, hateful oppressors. Worse, companies are actually hiring people who promote this toxicity and schools are teaching students to hate white people. Now out in the open, anti-white racism has created a hate-filled atmosphere of constant tension and dissension, where the only thing that matters, first and foremost, is skin color. This can only be laid at the feet of Democrats.
2. TRANS WOMEN IN WOMEN'S SPORTS: The gross unfairness of allowing men into women's sports (no, I will not call them "women") is so blatant and outrageous, that proponents are seen not merely as insane, but malevolent. The destruction of women's sports is viewed by all rational people as evil in the name of wokeness.
3. CORRUPTION IN THE FBI: The malicious and ethics-free raid on Mar-a-Lago is viewed even by many Democrats and all Republicans as vicious political intimidation, with the goal of destroying any followers of Donald Trump. This began in earnest during the "Russia collusion" case and saw its culmination in midnight raids of innocent conservatives revealing a hateful, vengeful vigilantism on the part of the radical left. In the hope that supporters of Trump and other conservative candidates would drop out of politics in fear of similar reprisals, these Gestapo tactics have not only solidified Trump's support and the support of even moderately conservative candidates, but have shown the Left to be petty children in a deranged, red-haze temper tantrum.
4. COVID MASK AND VACCINE MANDATES: Certainly a show of power rather than anything prophylactic against COVID, blue states and leftist groups have revealed that they know the masks do not prevent COVID, but instead are a symbol of big-government Stasi tactics designed to subjugate the citizenry in order to prepare them for eventual control.
5. DRAG QUEENS IN THE SCHOOLS: Young children have been indoctrinated into sexual fetishism and perverse sexual behavior at the behest of school administrators and leftist parents who seem to see nothing morally wrong with gay men dressing up as women in highly sexually-suggestive costumery and behavior. Why they are doing this has become clear: They want to break down all parental control over children and indoctrinate them into pedophilia, perversity, and compliance. For most parents, this was a bustier too far.
6. THE ECONOMY: From the start in 2021 when Joe Biden killed the Keystone pipeline and halted all drilling and new permits, the economy began tanking. Gas prices, supply line problems, paying people not to work, profligate spending, and other avoidable problems has hit the average American smack dab in the wallet. No matter how much the Biden administration denies their role in inflation and no matter how many times Joe says the economy is "strong as hell," Americans watch their buying power dwindle. They want relief and it is clear they will not get it from the Democrat Party.
7. ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: From day one, the borders were flung open by the Democrat Party to drug traffickers, murderers, and myriad other miscreants in the hope they would be new Democrat votes. As a result, crime is rampant, blue cities under Democrat rule are suffering and homelessness is on the rise, all the while Biden spokespeople are claiming the "border is closed." Squealing like stuck pigs, places like New York City which have reluctantly become home to Texas' illegals, have seen a marked inability to safely house the very illegals they claim to have wanted to live in their "sanctuary city."
8. CRIME: Because of the Democrat rule in blue cities, crime is not being prosecuted in the name of some weird kind of reparations. What the Democrats don't get is that they hurt their own innocent population by allowing criminals a get-out-jail-free card, and by not prosecuting at all. Their racist policies hurt the very people they claim to want to help. Why are they doing this? To deliberately create chaos in the execution of anti-white racism. The one solution to the rising crime rate, the prosecution and incarceration of criminals, is the one thing blue cities under Democrat rule will not do. Mayor Lightfoot makes weird and demonic home videos of herself dancing around in what appears to be a drugged stupor. Rather than be a responsible mayor, she has totally ignored the death-by-violence rate in Chicago. This is another very clear example of Democrats doing what they do best; destroying things.

Alvin Bragg and other Soros-owned big city DAs have nothing to do with putting hombres behind bars and upholding the highest standards of public safety. They have to do with the Marxist imperative of destroying to rule over the ruins.
OBAMAVILLE, CHICAGO:
Back in 2020, Soros kicked a couple of million into a committee backing Foxx’s election. Since Foxx became State’s Attorney, Chicago’s lowlifes have enjoyed an open-ended holiday -- from arrest, indictment, and almost certain conviction.
To lift a line from the immortal Dean Wormer: “Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life…” here amended to fat and stupid. Case in point, Alvin Bragg, now the Manhattan district attorney, and a guy who never met a calzone he didn’t eat. Calzones deserve a better fate.
Bragg -- who badly wants to carve up Donald J. Trump, but won’t -- was boosted into office in November 2021 in yet another spasm of virtue signaling by the Rotted Apple’s smart set, and whose campaign was lubed by dollars from George Soros to the aptly named “Color of Change PAC.”
Bragg is another swell diversity hire. They abound in America’s deteriorating cities. And not incidentally -- in fact, importantly -- he’s a Soros and establishment sock puppet. In going after Trump -- and as of this writing, flailing conspicuously in his gambit -- he’s paying his dues to the Man. Diversity hire's only requirement is doing the Man’s bidding. Alvin is trying.
Bragg is a Happy Meal for the “diversity, inclusion, and equity” crowd. Nothing brings bigger smiles to their faces than foisting unintelligent, untalented, poorly skilled “of color” or gender box checks on mostly “of color” Democrat-ruined urban communities around the country. In NYC, it makes those fashionable, progressive Upper West Side dinner parties so… perky.
Other than the quixotic quest to get Trump, Bragg’s primary duty as a Soros sock puppet is to free mostly “of color” murderers, rapists, child molesters, gangbangers, and robbers. Or not charge them in the first place. Soros and his ilk demand it. The riffraff are victims, after all, of “systemic white racism.” Why, racial justice demands it.
Certainly, said victims of white racism would never, ever have murdered and raped but for whitey’s oppression. The irony is -- actually, it’s demonic more than ironic -- when Bragg frees these scourges, where do they go?
Do they pack their bags for white precincts? Suburban Topeka? How about piney Fayetteville? Hmm… Butte? Nah. They return to the brilliantly urban renewed slums from whence they crawled… return to terrorize and prey upon the “of color” denizens, who are struggling to survive another day.
Whitey’s victims slither from slums to terrorize and brutalize the law-abiding elsewhere. For instance, the “Latinx” bodega shopkeeper, Jose Alba, who for the crime of defending himself against a couple of downtrodden, was arrested and packed off to Ryker’s Island. Bragg intended to indict Alba for the unpardonable crime of having the wrong pigmentation and defending self against the “of color” oppressed, but public blowback proved too great, even for a Soros sock puppet. Bragg backed down. A sumptuous meal must have soothed his bruised sense of justice.
BLACK CRIMES WE'VE ALL WITNESSED:
Or -- here surmised as pastime -- racial injustice legions venture into New York’s subways to terrorize riders or push the unsuspecting onto train tracks. Or… target Asians (usually females and the old) for old-fashioned beatings. And while this mayhem sinks the Rotted Apple into an ever-deeper abyss of crime and dysfunction, Bragg just shrugs. As policy, Bragg shrugs.
Bragg and other Soros-owned big city DAs and elected leaders marching orders have nothing to do with putting hombres behind bars and upholding the highest standards of public safety. They have nothing to do with the canard of “racial justice.” They have to do with the Marxist imperative of destroying to rule over the ruins. Better to rein in Hell than serve in Heaven.
About Asian Americans and immigrants, well, yellow isn’t a color on the “of color” palette. As a rule, Asians just can’t get with the victimology scam. Another rule: Asians dare to be industrious, thrifty, highly disciplined, and very focused.
Go to the takeout around the corner from you. Mr. Yang and his kin are busting tail in the kitchen and at the counter. Mr. Yang’s kids? Sitting at a table cracking schoolbooks. His kids are going to be doctors, lawyers, engineers, and tech entrepreneurs -- and not because of dumbed-downed diversity standards, but because of sweat equity and bona fide achievement.
For the sin of genuine merit -- when will believing in the American Dream be criminalized? -- the Yangs and Asians of all stripes are loathed by the diversity, inclusion, and equity mob, particularly affluent, progressive whites who fear their kids will be outperformed and outcompeted for prized higher education berths.
Asians, in the main, refuse to present themselves as victims. They disrupt the progressive narrative. They unintentionally mock it. Taking control of one’s destiny is verboten. Asians chose to be hardworking achievers, not excuse makers, haters, and shakedown artists. And isn’t that the pith of the diversity, inclusion, and equity racket?
Asians are powerful testaments to merit, while Bragg and other diversity mongers are anything but meritorious. They’re subpar grifters and moochers. So toward Asians, these counterfeits let flow torrents of seething resentment.
For further proof, we need only visit other poxes on the American landscape. Soros buys DAs. He means to add to the stable.
Kim Foxx, Cook County State’s Attorney, holds her office thanks to Boss Soros’ largess. Cook County contains Chicago, which even Al Capone, resurrected, might avoid for fear of being gang jumped.
Back in 2020, Soros kicked a couple of million into a committee backing Foxx’s election. Since Foxx became State’s Attorney, Chicago’s lowlifes have enjoyed an open-ended holiday -- from arrest, indictment, and almost certain conviction.
The Windy City’s “of color” neighborhoods are nightly scenes of melees, as gangbangers compete for turf and use streets for gun battles that put the OK Corral dustup to shame. “Of color” are disproportionately the victims -- including kids and the old.
Reports CBS Chicago, blandly, “Data Show Violent Crime Has Been On The Rise For The Last Three Years.”
Curiosity about the trend is how it lines up with Chicago’s dysfunctional leadership.
The trend roughly tracks Foxx’s tenure and the rein of outgoing Chicago mayor Beetlejuice, aka, Lori Lightfoot, another laughable elected diversity hire who checked three boxes: black, female (alleged), and LGBTQIA+.
Prior to Foxx’s election, far fewer criminal cases were dismissed cases in Cook County, according to data posted by the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office. In 2015, 263 weapons charges were dismissed, compared to 1,217 in 2022.
The Cook County Medical Examiner Case Archive registered 619 homicides county wide in 2015, rising to 937 in 2022.
So, why on this side of fabled Cabrini-Green would Foxx’s office post such painfully damning numbers? Perhaps Foxx’s bulb is dimmer than Bragg’s, or in the perverse world of racial justice warriorship, this amounts to bragging rights?
Hanging tough in St. Louis, diversity hire Kim Gardiner, whom Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is sensibly trying to oust. Seems that white racist Bailey has seen enough “of color” St. Louis citizens preyed upon by Gardiner’s malicious policies.
Lest we think diversity hires get all Soros’ favors and fun, Philadelphia district attorney, White Boy Larry Krasner -- brotherly love oozing from his pores -- looses Philly’s criminals on everybody, including “of color” citizens. Ditto L.A. district attorney, White Boy George Gascón.
But back to Bragg. This week, this Einstein and Thomas E. Dewey all rolled into one will have managed to drag an empaneled Grand Jury into indicting Trump on some threadbare, banana republic sham charge or he won’t -- that is, if the Grand Jury acts with uncharacteristic independence.
Or Bragg will reveal himself to have feet of Carvel ice cream. His star witness is none other than Michael Cohen, convicted felon and serial liar. Cohen, in part, was convicted of false statements. A Cohen letter about paying off Stormy Daniels without Trump’s knowledge holds the president blameless of a false charge, anyway. Bragg putting Cohen on the stand knowing Cohen committed perjury should cost Bragg more than losing VIP treatment at Golden Corral; it should cost him his law license.
Should. In New York City, where diversity, inclusion, and equity abound, Bragg is more likely to get off with winks, nods, and a free meal at Gramercy Tavern.

The rhetoric and uproar over the beating death of Trye Nichols by five Black police officers in Memphis, Tennessee, demonstrates how badly the “conversation” over race has deteriorated. One would think that a crime involving Blacks killing another Black would lack a racial angle to exploit. Alas, in today’s race-obsessed universe that is never the case. Unable to help themselves, our nation’s top racialists, beginning with President Joe Biden, weighed in on the controversy hurling the standard epithets of “systemic racism” and “White supremacy.” The media, and others, were happy to join in.
With the Brown v. Board of Education decision in 1954 ending “separate but equal,” the Civil Rights legislation of the sixties, affirmative action, and “Great Society,” with its trillions of dollars of wealth transfers to Blacks, one might have considered that, nearly sixty years later, the nation would mend and race relations improve.
Indeed, the emergence of Barack Obama and his ascension to the Presidency in 2008 suggested that that moment had arrived. The event should have been an inflection point in America’s racial history. Many thought it was. How else to explain a White majority nation electing a Black President, other than that America had turned the corner? Alas, Obama was not one to placate the nation. Rather than use the opportunity of his rise to the White House as the crowning achievement of a long treacherous journey to racial reconciliation, he chose instead to agitate and polarize the nation further. His presidency should have represented the fulfillment of the great dream of Lincoln, King, and of our Declaration of Independence, but became instead the basis of an ever-widening racial gap that may never be bridged.
Of his many racial stunts, perhaps the worst moment occurred during the Trayvon Martin affair. After the shooting death of the young Black, Obama famously stated that “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon.” The statement was provocative. Rather than pacify the nation, he inflamed it. He seemed to dismiss his White mother and the White grandparents who raised him. He, thus, injected his own biases into the controversy. As in so many other instances, rather than seek a peaceful resolution, he roiled the nation further.
The Trayvon Martin episode (like so many others) had, indeed, unleashed the furies emanating from the dark underside of racial politics and grievance in America; and it was not a pretty sight. It revolved around a simple narrative that had become the essence of a vast and elaborate racial industry that had grown and metastasized through the decades.
The narrative was as plain as it was destructive: it was that America was racist to the core, institutionally and categorically, and no matter what progress the nation made, no matter the multitude of unparalleled triumphs Blacks enjoyed, the stain and moral culpability would never be erased.
It did not matter that Blacks occupied the highest echelons of American wealth, power, and influence in the country, even the Presidency, the attorney general's office, the halls of Congress, governors' mansions, city halls, in the media, the academy, Hollywood, the music and entertainment world, sports, business, fashion, medicine, and law.
Nor did it matter that a vast complex of diversity programs, appointments, set asides, quotas, contracts, gerrymandered districts, anti-discrimination laws, voting rights, and wealth transfers have been instituted on behalf of Blacks, or that extensive bureaucracies and organizations have been brought into existence to protect and cater to the needs of Blacks.
Nor did it matter that Blacks, Black achievement, and Black culture were embraced, that Blacks received extensive preferential treatment and subsidies, or that a substantial political/media broadside was triggered for virtually any perceived racial slight or slur to defend Black sensitivities.
Nor did it matter that the United States was bar none the single greatest place in the world for a young Black to live and grow.
The narrative would not go away, for Obama and the race industry would not allow it; they had too much to lose, too much lucre and power to forfeit; it existed to ensure that the race catechism was never forgotten, and brandished as a sharp sword at a moment's notice.
George Zimmerman was only the latest foil at the time (and many since). The episodes of prior racial industry clampdowns were well known. Bernie Goetz, Crown Heights, Tawana Brawley, Jena 6, Henry Louis Gates, Duke-Lacrosse, and then Zimmerman, all saw the race industry in full attack mode, unleashing the power of its divisions, the integrated machinery of media, politicians, unions, activists, hucksters, protesters, administrators, academicians, lawyers, civil rights groups, bureaucracies and organizations unwinding themselves on the national stage, targeting victims, wrecking lives, and reinforcing the crucial race narrative upon which their careers and livelihoods depended.
The guilt or innocence of the protagonists hardly mattered. No one knew if Zimmerman committed a crime. But that was immaterial. Zimmerman’s offense was not legal but political.
If the man who pulled the trigger had been named Sanchez or had been a Black, it would have been a non-story, having failed the race template, no different than the thousands of Blacks killed every year by other Blacks that go unreported.
That he was Hispanic disturbed the tidy narrative of White racism and placed dueling liberal pieties at odds; and so a new ethnicity was discovered: the “White Hispanic.”
But the Hispanic dimension is troubling for the race crowd. It needs to look hard into the future for the demographics are not favorable. Hispanic Americans, when their numbers are great enough, will discard the temporary alliance they may have with Blacks and will not be patient with Black demands and Black victimhood. Having had nothing to do with slavery and being members of an “oppressed minority” themselves, there will be no pool of White guilt from which to extract wealth transfers or preferential treatment of any kind.
Indeed, the window for Blacks is closing quickly and the future is grim. Instead of seeking liberty, accomplishment, and full integration into American society, they have followed the admonitions of the race industry into a ghetto of cultural breakdown, unemployment, criminality, and poverty, to their own deepening detriment. They have accepted liberalism's nostrums for Black dysfunction, embraced liberalism's assumptions of their inability to compete and requirement for ever-expanding government largesse; they have been mined by the race industry for votes and money; furthermore, they have learned to resent bitterly their country, the “White patriarchy,” and to believe that the cards were stacked against them. They have been led into a house of poverty and despair.
One would be hard pressed to devise a more disabling ideology than this.
And the man who did more to perpetuate and exacerbate their dysfunction and misery while deepening the division of the nation, was none other than the one who could have actually ended it -- had the first Black President been a different man. Had he been a Thomas Sowell, an Allen West, or Ben Carson, or even the liberal Colin Powell, a patriot who loved his country and recognized the significance of a Black man winning the American Presidency. But, no, that man was not a patriot. He was instead a community organizing, race-baiting, anti-American, cult-Marxist agitator. He was Barack Hussein Obama, who presided over the greatest lost opportunity in American history.

here is only one way to say that Biden is innocent, and that is for Obama to announce, “I told Joe he could take the documents.” However, if Obama makes that announcement, he has conceded, and all the Dems will be forced to concede, that a president can declassify documents simply by walking them out of the White House or authorizing someone else to do so.
In other words, to exonerate Biden, Obama must also exonerate Trump from the disgraceful, deeply (criminally?) dishonest charge leveled against Trump. I get a real kick imagining Obama sitting in the lavishly decorated office of one of his three luxury homes, cursing to himself that you can always trust Joe Biden to “F” things up.

Obviously Obama must have been successful since the Biden Crime Family’s activities went unreported on by most of the news media prior to the 2020 presidential election. Even now there’s been a reluctance to report on anything associated with the claims of illegal – indeed impeachable offenses by Joe Biden.

Victor Davis Hanson: Biden is the most dangerously radical President in US history
JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze. JB SHURK
Installed (p)Resident Joe Biden loves to make promises secured by the supposed worth of his family name. "I give you my word as a Biden," he said back in March of 2020, "When I'm president, I will lead with science, listen to the experts and heed their advice, and always tell you the truth." Again giving his solemn word before the 2020 mail-in ballot presidential selection, he promised both "to turn division into unity and bring us together," as well as to "be an ally of the light, not the darkness." Just over a week ago, he declared, "My word as a Biden: I've never been more optimistic about America's future than I am today." My goodness, if only Biden's family name possessed more value than that of Benedict Arnold's, we would be blessed with a man in the White House committed to truth, unity, spiritual guidance, and American success. Yet Biden's name is synonymous with none of those things, is it?
Instead, the Biden family name has really stood for only two things: buffoonery and corruption. For fifty years, Joe Biden has managed to hold onto some slice of power in D.C. as a senator, vice president, and Oval Office stooge not because he is renowned for his erudition or virtue but rather because his doltish behavior and venal character make him ideal for others to control. Perhaps no other Washington relic has accomplished so little for the American people over such a prolonged government career or managed to harness those defects for lucrative advancement more successfully than China Joe.
He is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze.
Perhaps when America's Scumbucket-in-Chief gives his "word as a Biden," he is depending upon the solid reputations of notable relatives. Alas, no. His brother James has been repeatedly implicated in allegations of fraud and quid-pro-quo financial schemes leveraging Joe's political office as a means to advance the Biden family's interests and wealth. His daughter Ashley struggles with sex and drug addictions, problems she has attributed in part to her memories of taking showers with her dad at a young age (no wonder Creepy Joe excuses pedophilia and transgender madness so effortlessly). And then there is the "smartest guy" Joe claims to know — his son Hunter — whose illegal drug use; sexual debauchery with prostitutes, employees, and relatives alike; gun crimes; occupation as an undeclared foreign agent; and serially-excused role as the family's point man for turning the powers of Joe's political office into seedy profit are all well known to the American people (even if habitually ignored by the corrupt Department of [in]Justice). In any other family concerned about its reputation for probity and honor, Hunter Biden would have been cast off as some sort of uncontrollable "black sheep." In the Biden herd, though, Hunter blends right in with his unseemly, scuzzy kin. The Biden pedigree is made from rotten stuff — more like a pustule than a bloodline and filled with dreck, mediocrity, selfishness, pusillanimity, and unrepentant sin.
When you stop to consider how shockingly meaningless Joe's "word as a Biden" schtick really is, it actually becomes tempting to consider whether the old, fatuous fraud is ironically — and just this once — telling the American people the truth! Perhaps when he says, "I give you my word as a Biden," he is really saying: "I give you my word as an incestuous pervert who cannot learn to keep my hands off little girls or keep from sniffing and grabbing women against their will; as a shameless liar who distorts everything, including the circumstances of my own wife and daughter's tragic deaths, when those lies induce public sympathy or are otherwise advantageous; as a plagiarist with no original thoughts or accomplishments of my own; as a lifelong racist who has had many friendships with segregationists and race hustlers while lying about having been active in the civil rights movement; as a corrupt politician who has ties to the mob and whose family has profited generously from my public office; and as a traitor to the United States who has repeatedly sold out my country for the benefit of foreign interests in Ukraine, China, and anywhere else I can make a buck."
I guess when you see how long it would take to vomit forth that mouthful of insidious nastiness, using the shorthand, "I give you my word as a Biden," just means that whatever is said next is almost certainly untrue.
Seen from that perspective, Biden's time as installed president makes a lot more sense. When he promised to unite the country by ridding it of petty divisions, what he really meant was that he planned to exacerbate racial animosities to the best of his abilities, rub salt in old wounds to ensure intolerance festers and anguish lingers, and incite hatred among groups of Americans who would otherwise get along. When he promised to "bring us together," he meant that he would promote propaganda reframing the J6 protest for fair elections as an "insurrection" seeking to topple the government and use that laughably fraudulent pretense as an excuse to persecute and imprison his political enemies. When he promised to be "an ally of the light, not the darkness," he meant that he would threaten concerned parents with criminal prosecution should they resist the government's program of sexualizing childhood, encouraging bodily mutilation, brainwashing innocents with "transgender" delusions, and promoting abortion-on-demand.
When he promised to "lead with science," he meant that he would use the unscrutinized declarations of unelected government health bureaucrats with secret political agendas as a sword and shield for imposing a dictatorship of unconstitutional mandates, censorship, ephemeral freedoms, and unjust orders contrary to established law. When he promised to "listen to the experts and heed their advice," he meant that he would further empower an already-out-of-control Deep State to police Americans' thoughts and words for alleged "misinformation" and "hate"; expand the national security surveillance State to spy on Americans' every move; and target for criminal punishment those who nonetheless insist on engaging in "wrongthink." When he promised to "always tell you the truth," he meant that his administration would construct "politically correct" falsehoods, propagate those falsehoods through a willingly compliant and compromised State-aligned news media, vilify dissent as harmful "disinformation," and characterize contrary viewpoints as mere "conspiracy theories."
Finally, when Biden recently claimed that he has "never been more optimistic about America's future," what he meant is that he has given China permission to send spy balloons loaded with explosives across the continent; criminal cartels permission to flood America with illegal aliens; the pharmaceutical companies permission to reap windfall profits from harmful, untested, yet government-mandated products; the World Health Organization and United Nations permission to usurp U.S. sovereignty; the Federal Reserve permission to print money on our way to economic Armageddon; and the World Economic Forum permission to usher in a "great reset" of centralized control and loss of individual liberty. Surely all that carnage is worth a relatively small finder's fee of 10%.
When Commie Joe's statements are viewed in their proper context, he is just a presidential truth-teller. Really. After all, he gives us his word as a Biden!
BLAME THE OBOMB FOR THE BIDEN DEBACLE? - THE ONLY REASON THE BANKSTER REGIME OF GAMER LAWYERS BARACK OBAMA AND ERIC HOLDER WANTED 'FUCK UP' JOE BIDEN AS V.P. WAS BECAUSE 'CREDIT CARD' JOE WAS A DOCUMENTED BANKSTERS' RENT BOY
New revelations about Hunter will hit President Joe Biden's already plummeting popularity
During Obama’s presidency, everyone joked that he selected Biden for VP because Biden’s incompetency insured that Obama would never be impeached. Yes, Obama was bad, but Biden would be worse. Now that Biden’s the president, that joke was 100% correct. Sadly, he’s multiple times worse than anyone imagined. Biden has more failures in one year than most presidents have in a lifetime – the Afghanistan debacle and surrender, huge crime spikes due to Democrat “defund the police” insanity, actively working to destroy the petroleum industry while supporting Russia’s, soaring inflation, open support and deference to China, and his weakness being directly responsible for Putin’s invasion of Ukraine -- to name just a few epic failures. As bad as Biden is as president, it’s obvious he selected Harris for the same reason that Obama selected him -- to insure he’s never removed from office. If you think things can’t possibly get worse, just look at Harris and you instantly realize – yes, they can. She would be multiple times worse than Joe.

BARACK OBAMA
Nickname(s): Barry O’Bummer, the Choom Gangsta, Hussein in the Membrane
Occupation: Serial memoirist, nicotine addict, property owner, Netflix producer, secret Muslim, 44th president of the United States
Background: “Born” in “Hawaii” in 1961, B. Hussein Obama moved with his mother at age six to Indonesia and ate dog meat. He returned to Hawaii years later to join the Honolulu-based “choom gang” and experiment with drugs before “enrolling” at Occidental College, followed by Columbia, followed by Harvard Law School. After publishing his first memoir at age 33, Obama worked in the Illinois state government under the tutelage of left-wing terrorist Bill Ayers before getting elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004 and immediately running for president to validate his preternatural self-regard. Mission accomplished.
Hobbies: Hanging out with celebs, drinking wine with “interesting Italians,” and complainingabout his wife’s literary success. Being wrong about politics might even be considered one of Obama’s hobbies. In 2016, for example, he backed Hillary Clinton over his own vice president. We all know how that turned out. In 2020, Obama was “enamored” with failed candidate Beto O’Rourke and feared Joe Biden would “dishonor himself” by running. He didn’t even donate to Biden’s campaign.
Hates freedom? Without question.
Why/how? Where to begin? As president Obama relished every opportunity to apologize for American exceptionalism, which he dismissively likened to “British exceptionalism” or “Greek exceptionalism.” His signature move when greeting foreign leaders was the submissive bow. He brazenly lied about whether Americans would be able to keep their doctors following the passage of Obamacare. He repeatedly expressed frustration with the fact that he was merely president of the United States, as opposed to an “emperor” or “dictator” with total authority to decide how the American people should live their lives. Apart from coddling terrorists, his signature foreign policy achievements include presiding over the death of an American ambassador in Benghazi and cozying up to the anti-American regimes in Iran and Cuba.
Claim(s) to shame: Generally speaking, Obama is a pathological narcissist who journalists lustily admired as president because he reminded them so much of themselves and satisfied their overwhelming desire to publicly demonstrate opposition to racism and other bad things. He resented the American people for constantly letting him down, and behaved as though the office of the presidency was beneath him. In March 2014, for example, Obama refused to let Russia’s impending annexation of Crimea spoil his vacation plans. “I needed this,” he told former NBA star Alonzo Mourning and other guests at the Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo. “I needed the golf. I needed to laugh.”
Fun fact(s): Obama is the first former president since Dwight Eisenhower, commander of the D-Day invasion, to compose a multi-volume memoir about his time in office. During the 2012 election, the Choom Gangsta voted for himself at precisely 4:20 p.m.
What’s next? Becoming the first ex-president billionaire, finishing his third memoir, and eventually publishing a 900-page novel that reviewers will unanimously praise as “Holden Caulfield meets Ta-Nehisi Coates … an intellectual call to arms,” because they’ll be too gutless to admit it’s rather tedious and overwrought
IS BLACK VIOLENCE PERPETRATED AGAINST INNOCENT PEOPLE REALLY ABOUT BLACK FASCISM?
THE BLM HOAX SUGGESTS THIS TO BE THE CASE
Why We Need Behavioral Vigilantes
This ongoing noise contamination of the public sphere must end.
Jordan Neely’s death on May 1, 2023 by a Marine veteran who placed him in a chokehold after the 30-year-old, homeless African-American appeared on a New York subway train allegedly hurling garbage and verbal abuse at passengers is one extreme end of a social malady plaguing our society today: individuals who treat the public sphere as an extension of their private sphere (or lack thereof), and who subject others to their obtrusive behaviors.
Neely had been arrested over 40 times previously for various crimes ranging from lewd behavior to assaulting senior citizens. As one commentator noted: This guy has been arrested dozens of times and he is back on the subway causing people to be scared for their safety; either get some law enforcement on the subway or give citizens authority to protect themselves without recourse.
Other recent incidents include two women blasting music from their phones on a plane in flight (pictured above). The women gave the middle finger to annoyed fellow passengers. As the article points out, one of the alarming trends in travel is the rise of people using personal speakers in public and carrying on loud phone conversations without using headphones.
Another recent article describes a woman voted off a Frontier Jet for lobbing a barrage of vulgar expletives in an argument she started with a couple seated rows in front of her.
People who use their phones as personal speakers are polluting every pocket of the public sphere; their boisterous behavior indicates they believe they are entitled to treat shared public space as their own private space—indeed, as an extension of their disheveled bedrooms.
Why is it that so many people have no understanding of their responsibility not to dominate the public sphere, monopolize it, or even make themselves highly conspicuous and obtrusive in it? For indeed, when we draw unnecessary attention to ourselves and transgress on the personal space of others in public, we undermine the ability of others to interject themselves into that space and use it for their own limited goals and aims. However limited it might be, the public sphere is one or two spaces in which our agency as human beings unfold. We have a duty to make ourselves as unobtrusive as possible in shared public spaces so that we can allow as many participants as possible in the public sphere to feel comfortably ensconced in that space in a manner that does not compromise the reasonable way they are entitled to exercise their agency.
Those individuals who contaminate the public sphere exhibit contempt and disrespect for the idea of a shared space and the norms and mores that secure its operation for all those who inhabit it. Others may read and talk and enjoy moments of quiet or tolerate a reasonable level of volubility which does not nullify their own equilibrium and sense of equanimity.
Those guilty of emitting noise pollution, the linguistic equivalent of grunting farm animals, proclaim their vulgarity as a right—and one that normalizes thuggery as the new standard of public (mis)behavior.
This trend is permissible today only because we have two phenomena at work.
The first is massive inclusivity of uncivilized and improperly socialized persons in the public domain. I am speaking of hordes of individuals flooding the present and the future with little thought from members of society about how to assimilate such individuals into the culture when, truth be told, many of them are unassimilable.
Also, there is a concomitant radical egalitarianism at issue. Everyone must have a place at the table. The attendant forms of self-expression are permissible because what cultivated folks think of as miscreants contaminating the public domain is interpreted differently in the minds of progressives. For the latter, public domain polluters are merely committing behavioral malapropisms, a form of self-expression and, a fortiori, self-fulfillment. The truth is, such reprobates have always existed. They were called vulgar, low-class, thuggish, pedestrian at best, and they and their behaviors were stigmatized. They were shamed if they showcased their beastly sensibilities in public spaces. They were forced to retreat. In their stead, bourgeois values and virtues prevailed.
Today, there is a revolt against those bourgeois mores, norms and values which are properly elitist, exclusionary and, above all, rationally discriminatory.
Just as every sophomoric high school opinion of any village idiot is too often raised to the level of human knowledge, so tolerance is invoked to excuse tawdry and vulgar behavior as constitutive of personal identity.
To criticize this behavior regardless of the ethnic makeup of whom it is directed toward is to incur being labeled a white cultural, civilizational imperialist. One is likely to be accused of commodifying public space into private realms. That is a form of race-capitalism, we are told.
Judging by the rage and the massive protests surrounding Neely’s death, one is left with the impression that to appraise and adjudicate obstreperous behavior that violates the public sphere is verboten. Since it is apparently imperialistic and racist now to hold behavior to a civilizational standard, all aberrant, nefarious, and anomalous behaviors that compromise the public domain are graded on a curve.
I am not referring here to mere oddities and eccentricities, or inconveniences caused by behaviors of other people which are the price we pay for living in a free society.
The truth is that we are increasingly witnessing persons de-ratifying the social contract we live by with gross, uncivilized behavior. This behavior is normalized and mainstreamed as the manifest vitality and the loud, bodacious expression of certain individuals. To disrupt and punish it is to be a discriminator. What the uncivilized violators of the public domain need is a civilizade blasted against them. These people suffer not just from faulty socialization, the obstruction of sensibilities, and a paucity of decent manners, but also from deep impulse control.
Their sense of radical entitlement to monopolize shared public space results from a refusal to limit their desires, wishes and whims. Theirs is a solipsistic universe where none but themselves exists.
The desire to live in concord with others is what drives civilization. Barbarism is a tendency towards disassociation. Today’s civilizational social disruptors are inverted barbarians.
This whole phenomenon, though, is the logical consequence of over-democratization. The latter leads to massive inclusiveness, the kind in which the lowest common denominator in each is enshrined. The exceptional, the refined, the decorous are annihilated via neglect, default, and willful stigmatization as exclusionary and discriminatory.
The short response to these behaviors is for anyone to step in to restore order, be it a law enforcement agent, a flight attendant, or dutiful citizens.
The longer response is applied rational discrimination, which will curb the degree of radical inclusivity. Yes: vote people off airplanes, maroon them from cruise ships, and toss them from trains. Hyper-democratization is tyrannical. Parents have morally outsourced their children to government schools which in turn not only entertain their thuggery but, unfortunately, long ago abandoned the seemingly jejune notion of creating moral character and developing and cultivating refined sensibilities.
Coarseness, crassness, and inelegance have been raised to a statistical average, codified, and then enshrined like a national treasure trove on which others can pin their aspirational identities. Civilized people must resoundingly reject this trend. Moral and behavioral vigilantes must police the public domain. Moral opprobrium must be visited upon violators of public decency, norms, and mores. And, in the limited context available to the civilized enforcers, the violators must simply be ejected from the larger public sphere they occupy. They will then think twice before acting out their thuggish instincts. If each civilized citizen took it upon him- or herself to be the fiduciary and custodian of the public sphere, then the aberrant will learn the art of reflection, inconspicuousness, courtesy, and decent manners.
Or maybe they will simply learn to keep their mouths shout when they are inclined to yell and pick a fight with others if they know a vigilante citizen is there to hold them publicly accountable for their behavior.

If, in 1984, an inventive New Yorker set his time travel machine to the year 2023, the city in which he arrived would confound him. Although the New York City of today looks much like that of 1984, our time traveler would have a hard time understanding the people, almost as hard a time as H.G. Wells's "Time Traveler" did when his machine arrived in the year 802,701.
The public response of the average New Yorker to the arrest of former Marine sergeant Daniel Penny calls to mind the "Eloi" response to Wells's Traveler. The Eloi were the little, pretty people of the future whom the Time Traveler encountered. "Once the favored aristocracy" says the Traveler, "the Eloi, like the Carolingian kings, had decayed to a mere beautiful futility."
The passivity of the Eloi allowed the subterranean Morlocks, once their servants, to become their masters. "Already the Eloi had begun to learn one old lesson anew," says the Traveler. "They were becoming reacquainted with Fear." Unfortunately for their future, the Eloi had lost their spines. Eloi males no longer had even the instinct to rescue one of their own from peril or to defend themselves from the creeping cannibalism of the Morlocks.
Enter the Time Traveler. Writing the The Time Machine in 1895, Wells endowed his protagonist with those many virtues expected of an Englishman in the age of Victoria and Kipling. Tempted to leave behind the chaos he found in the future, the Traveler feels honor-bound to intervene; to save the Eloi from extinction; and, in the process, to show them how to save themselves.
After serving four years in the Marines, the 24-year-old Daniel Penny arrived in New York City almost as innocent as Wells's hero and likely as brave. "I have always been inspired by the ambition and grit," he posted on social media. "After high school and unsure of my future, I enlisted in the Marine Corps in search of adventure." In the Marines, Sergeant Penny served as squad leader on two deployments.
Unlike most young men of this era, Penny pulled his inspiration from Cervantes's Don Quixote, a novel that at its most literal interpretation would have reinforced his Marine Corps values.As Penny learned during this past week, if not before, his values and those of his fellow New Yorkers were as out of sync as those of Wells's hero and the Eloi.
In subterranean New York, Penny came face to face with a modern Morlock, Jordan Neely by name. Neely had been arrested 42 times in the past 10 years and had a well documented mental health history. The NYPD knew he was dangerous. They had arrested Neely most recently in November 2021 on felony assault charges after he punched a 67-year-old female stranger in the face.
Two years later, Neely was roaming free. After 20 years of good governance, the left took over New York's City Hall with the installation of Bill de Blasio in 2014. Since then, the Morlocks of New York, armies of them, have been emboldened to terrorize the Eloi on the streets and on the subways. Hardly a day passes without some new video surfacing of a Morlock striking or threatening an Eloi while the other Eloi pretend not to see.
It seems somehow appropriate that Neely died on May 1, the ultimate feast day on the revolutionary calendar. Eleven days later, the Morlocks' enablers got their way. Manhattan's district attorney, Alvin Bragg, feeling the need to sacrifice a white man to the woke gods, charged Penny with manslaughter.
Penny clearly did not intend to kill Neely. He expected to restrain him until the police arrived. I suspect that from what he learned in the Marines and in the books he read, Penny had been trained to intervene when a madman threatens to kill the innocent people around him.
Penny's response was measured. According to witnesses, he did not leap into action until after Neely started issuing death threats. "I would kill a m-----------," said Neely. "I don't care. I'll take a bullet. I'll go to jail." However unintentionally, Penny helped Neely fulfill his death wish.
Penny certainly did not expect to be called a murderer, but he misjudged New York circa 2023. "Jordan Neely was murdered, tweeted Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. "While many in power demonize the poor, the murderer gets protected w/ passive headlines + no charges. It's disgusting."
This was not the New York of 1984. That was the year that the nerdy Bernard Goetz shot four teenage thugs on a New York City subway car. In watching news from that era, I am reminded of just how shabby New York City had become before the 20-year renaissance overseen by Mayors Giuliani and Bloomberg. I am reminded too of just how much New Yorkers have changed over the past 40 years.
Unlike the soft and spineless New Yorkers of today, everyday New Yorkers of 1984 were often bold and outspoken. I would encourage readers to search YouTube for "Bernie Goetz" and watch the news clips from that era. Although the white Goetz shot four black teenagers, New Yorkers, black and white, were not afraid to speak out in Goetz's defense. These were real New Yorkers, toughened by a life riding subways. They cared more about justice than race.
In 2023, radicals have no hesitance about speaking out, but everyday New Yorkers certainly do. Beaten down by years of oppressive political correctness, they come off as feckless as their Wellsian counterparts. That said, I suspect that the great majority of them, certainly the subway riders, are pulling quietly for Penny.
Like the Eloi, they are "becoming reacquainted with Fear." If that fear does not motivate them to champion Daniel Penny and acquit him, the Morlocks will own the city until it dies.
Daniel Penny, along with others on a New York subway, used a wrestling hold to subdue Jordan Neely after the latter’s behavior was “hostile and erratic.” The Democrat narrative is that a white supremacist murdered a Michael Jackson impersonator. Now, Alvin Bragg, Manhattan’s hard-left District Attorney, has indicted Penny for manslaughter. New Yorkers, though, may not take this indictment lying down.
The last time New York City was as violently out of control as today was in the 1970s and early 1980s. That’s why, when Bernhard Goetz, a white subway rider who had previously been violently mugged, pulled out a gun and shot four black teens who were demanding his money, many in New York City supported him. He was their everyman. The jury rejected serious charges against him, finding him guilty of carrying an unlicensed firearm, for which he served only eight months.
It was in this context that Neely, a homeless man with a long criminal record, including multiple assault charges, came into contact with Penny. According to witnesses, Neely behaved in a “hostile and erratic manner” and threw trash at people (a form of assault), frightening passengers. That’s why Penny put Neely in a “chokehold,” while two other passengers helped.
For a chokehold, one person puts his arm around another person’s neck to control that person. I’ve had hundreds of chokeholds put on me, and I’ve put hundreds on other people. Nobody choked. If you apply hard pressure the correct way, though, you can either cut off someone’s air supply, suffocating them or the flow of blood to their brain. The moment you remove pressure, the suffocation stops, and the blood flow returns.
So, it’s theoretically possible that a chokehold could have killed Neely. Except that we know from the full video, rather than the parts the media focused on, that once Neely stopped screaming and fighting, Penny put him in a recovery position. This is inconsistent with intending to kill a man or believing you have killed him. Several people involved (many of whom thanked Penny) were certain that Neely was alive—and, indeed, Neely was alive, dying only at the hospital:
Hypothetically, though, it shouldn’t matter if Neely had died. The self-defense principle is that you must neutralize the threat. People die because they thought that wounding someone was sufficient to neutralize them.
New York’s self-defense doctrine gives reasonable people the right to take whatever steps are needed to defend themselves or others. They don’t have to wait until they’re wounded (perhaps fatally) to act. Instead, the justification for killing someone kicks in when “a person reasonably believes it is necessary to defend himself/ herself or a third party when there is a reasonable belief of imminent use of unlawful physical force.” (NY Penal Code § 35.15.)
Leftists from D.A. Alvin Bragg to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, though, hate self-defense because it makes people less dependent on the government. When a bodega worker killed a threatening robber, Bragg indicted the worker for murder. He wanted to do the same when a garage security guard wrestled the gun from a robber who shot him and fired back, killing the robber. Recall that, in Canada, Justin Trudeau has successfully eliminated self-defense:
Therefore, it was predictable that Bragg would indict Penny for second-degree manslaughter.
The real question is whether New Yorkers will resist, as they did with the bodega and parking garage workers. While the left is pushing the George Floyd narrative (white-on-black violence), New Yorkers are looking at a subway that functions as the city’s artery, but that is becoming too dangerous for them to use.
No wonder even left-wing outlets are worriedly writing about the number of New Yorkers who have come to Penny’s defense. (See, e.g., Vox, Daily News, Politico, and The Times-Tribune.) And no wonder that Bragg bypassed the grand jury because he feared they’d side with Penny and withhold an indictment.
New Yorkers understand that the government cannot and will not—and does not want to—protect them from violence. As happened with Bernie Goetz almost 40 years ago, this is when vigilantes become heroes.
Ten days after the chokehold strangulation of Jordan Neely on a New York City subway train, Daniel Penny was finally charged with second-degree manslaughter in the homicide. Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man with a history of mental illness, was killed by the 24-year-old Penny, a former US Marine, who held Neely in a chokehold for at least four minutes, an action that was witnessed by scores of passengers and captured on video. Penny was arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court Friday morning. He did not enter a plea, and was released after posting $100,000 bail.

This murder, just as graphically as the police killings of Eric Garner in 2013 and George Floyd in 2020, has provided a glimpse of the bitter reality of life in America. It reveals the risks that many millions of the most oppressed and vulnerable sections of the working class face on a daily basis. The death of Jordan Neely is a direct consequence of the historically unprecedented levels of social inequality and polarization in the glittering US capital of finance, the media and culture. Similar conditions exist in most urban centers, even if not quite as glaring. The glittering surface can no longer hide the reality underneath.
Penny, who was not even identified until his name was leaked to the media three days after the murder, is being represented by Steven Raiser and Thomas Kenniff. Kenniff ran unsuccessfully as the Republican candidate for Manhattan District Attorney against Democrat Alvin Bragg, whose office is prosecuting this case. Penny’s lawyers issued a statement after Penny’s arrest, stating “their confidence that once all the facts and circumstances surrounding this tragic incident are brought to bear, Mr. Penny will be fully absolved of any wrongdoing.”
Whatever Penny’s political views, it is noteworthy that he is being defended by right-wing demagogues like Fox News host Laura Ingraham. A crowdfunding platform has raised more than $400,000 in right-wing circles for his defense.
Neely’s family, including his father, Andre Zachery, and aunt, Carolyn Neely, had been pressing for an arrest since the day of the murder. Dante Mills, a lawyer for the family, told a press conference on May 12 that the prosecutor’s office had telephoned to offer condolences earlier this week. “We said thank you for the condolences, but we want an arrest.”
On Wednesday, nine days after Neely’s death, Democratic Mayor Eric Adams was finally forced to go beyond statements about the need for investigation. Earlier, the family, addressing Adams, had said that his silence meant, “You seem to think others are more important than him.” Adams, speaking at City Hall, said, “Jordan Neely’s life mattered. He was suffering from severe mental illness, but that was not the cause of his death. His death was a tragedy that never should have happened.”
Much has been made of the role of mental illness in Neely’s behavior the day he was murdered. Formerly a Michael Jackson impersonator, he had struggled for many years; he had been arrested more than 40 times, including for violent behavior, and had been committed for psychiatric evaluation or treatment, both voluntarily and involuntarily, on numerous occasions. On the afternoon that found him in the same subway car as Penny, Neely screamed in psychological pain, complaining about hunger and thirst, and saying, “I don’t mind going to jail and getting life in prison.”
Of course, none of this remotely excuses Penny’s action. Witnesses have reported that Neely, though clearly unsettling the passengers, did not directly threaten anyone. Penny was not simply restraining a troubled man. He used the chokehold technique that he had been taught in the Marines, maintaining it for at least four minutes, even as bystanders warned him to release Neely. “If you suffocate him, that’s it,” said one man. “You don’t want to catch a murder charge.”
Various capitalist political hacks, most prominently Adams and Democratic New York governor Kathy Hochul, have suddenly discovered the need for increased mental health treatment. Hochul called the murder “a wake-up call.” She has been governor for the last two years and was lieutenant governor for the six years prior to that, however, and is thus fully responsible for the various budget-cutting programs and the overall economic disaster for the working class that is intimately bound up with the epidemic of homelessness as well as mental illness in New York City.
These elected officials are well aware that mental illness, whatever its genetic or biological components, is triggered or worsened amongst the more vulnerable. Appalling social conditions are a major factor. Neely was 14 years old when his mother was killed by her boyfriend, her body stuffed into a suitcase.
Mayor Adams and other law-and-order advocates exaggerate the crime danger, even as statistics demonstrate that the city remains one of the country’s safest, and that crime in the subways has in fact fallen this year. They nevertheless play on a generalized concern over the social crisis—the decline in living standards, the decay of the infrastructure and the gutting of social programs.
They stoke fear to divert attention from the underlying causes of social issues like mental illness and homelessness, just as the notorious Republican mayor (and more recently Trump coup lawyer) Rudy Giuliani did in the 1990s. The actions of Daniel Penny, in line with this demagogy, appear to indicate he regarded Jordan Neely as less than human.
The overwhelmingly working-class passengers on the New York transit system are well aware of the fact that there have been more public episodes of mental illness, including in the confined spaces of the buses and subways, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic.
Alvin Bragg didn’t trust a grand jury to indict Daniel Penny for the death of Jordan Neely
In New York City, everybody but the richest few percent rides the subway, and they know how bad things have gotten in the wake Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg treating arrests as inequitable since African Americans are disproportionately arrested.
Jordan Neely died in a hospital after being subdued by Marine Corps veteran Daniel Penny with the help of two other passengers (who have not been charged).
Neely “avoid[ed] prison for allegedly slugging a 67-year-old woman in November 2021 during a psychotic episode” by agreeing to a plea deal. Despite a record of more than forty previous arrests, he was allowed to roam the streets, though he was to stay at Harbor House, where he could receive services. When he left there, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Ellen Biben signed a warrant for his arrest on February 23.
Perhaps because police officers realize that arresting any black person can cause enormous career grief, Neely evaded arrest, even while riding subways and being visible on the streets. The justice system, in other words, completely failed to protect the public from a deranged, violent man. So, when riding the subway on May first and threatening passengers with violence, and assaulting some by throwing trash, it was only Daniel Penny who first took action to protect himself and fellow passengers.
it’s theoretically possible that a chokehold could have killed Neely. Except that we know from the full video, rather than the parts the media focused on, that once Neely stopped screaming and fighting, Penny put him in a recovery position. This is inconsistent with intending to kill a man or believing you have killed him. Several people involved (many of whom thanked Penny) were certain that Neely was alive—and, indeed, Neely was alive, dying only at the hospital:
When DA Bragg indicted Penny, he avoided taking the case to a grand jury. I suspect he realized that most members of a Manhattan grand jury are subway riders, and might have even experienced a situation of being threatened on a subway car while on their way to the courthouse. He had reason to believe that a grand jury would not have returned an indictment.
So, just as he did with “Jose Alba, the bodega clerk charged with murder for fatally stabbing an ex-con who was assaulting him in the grocery,” his office issued the indictment on its own. Alba was sent to Riker’s Island, a notoriously violent and unsafe jail, only to be released when the public uproar grew deafening.
Daniel Penny, perhaps because he is white, has so far only been publicly excoriated by “activists” as probably racist, simply because he was a white man subduing a black man who died later. The vast majority of New Yorkers who will make up the jury pool for his trial, most of whom are fellow subway riders, are remaining silent. Literally, a silent majority.
I am afraid it will take a jury trial for Penny to receive justice for his heroic acts that ended badly for the offender. He will need capable (and expensive) counsel.
I’d like to see Bragg repeat what he did in the case of Jose Alba and simply drop the charges because of the obvious injustice or prosecuting an act of self-defense. Large demonstrations might help convince him, but so far, they have not taken place. Unless the silent majority wakes up and realizes it has to encourage, not punish good Samaritans who protect fellow passengers from scary and violent lunatics, the city and its transportation system will only get scarier and more hazardous.
THERE IS NO GREATER THREAT TO AMERICA THAN THE DEMOCRAT PARTY!
This analysis is a crock. Democrats have been seeking to divide the country by race, sex and class for decades. They have sought to destroy anyone who got their way. It started way before Trump. (MORE BELOW)
Watch Live: House Holds ‘Victims of Violent Crime in Manhattan’ Hearing over Alvin Bragg’s Policies
Over the last decade, BLM, and assorted leftist and libertarian groups dismantled our criminal justice system. Police forces were defunded, pro-crime prosecutors refused to lock up criminals, federal and state prison systems released tens of thousands of them, and a wave of legislative decriminalization legalized everything from shoplifting, to drug dealing and mugging.
The pro-crime policymaking that eliminated public safety and cost over 3,000 lives in 2020 alone was done under the guise of fighting racism. Statistics which showed that black people were more likely to be arrested, imprisoned or shot during criminal encounters with police were used to spread conspiracy theories falsely accusing the criminal justice system of systemic racism.
What all of these racist conspiracy theories popularized by politicians, the media, and the entertainment industry ignored was that black people were also far more likely to be crime victims. Even as the BLM riots got underway, black people in surveys were strongly opposed to police defunding. The opposition was so vehement that Democrats not only abandoned the issue, but claimed that they had always been opposed to it and ran against their own position.
Despite years of false claims portraying black people as victims of a biased criminal justice system whose police forces are descended from “slave catchers” who repress minorities at the behest of white suburbanites, surveys of black people continue to tell a very different story.
A Pew survey found that while only 33% of white Democrats wanted to reduce crime, 63% of Hispanics and 66% of black people thought that fighting crime should be a priority.
And that’s nothing new.
Leftists and libertarians lied that the War on Drugs was racist when it was actually pushed by black groups, including the NAACP, which demanded the death penalty for drug dealers.
That same Pew survey showed that while only 38% of white Dems answered that reducing the availability of illegal drugs should be a priority, 57% of Hispanics and 60% of black people believed that it should be.
Now a Kaiser Family Foundation survey shows that black people are far more likely to suffer from crime than white people. The survey, meant to generate support for unconstitutional gun ban measures, instead unintentionally demonstrated that crime hurts black people more.
The KFF survey noted that “three in ten black adults (31%) have personally witnessed someone being shot”, “one-third of black adults (34%) have a family member who was killed by a gun” and (32%) say that they worry all the time about themselves or a family member being shot.
One in six of black adults say they don’t feel “safe at all” from gun violence in their neighborhood, compared to 2% of white adults. 1 in 4 also bought a gun to protect themselves.
Gun violence is just another way of saying crime.
Black people are disproportionately affected by crime. Pro-crime policies led to the deaths of an additional 2,244 black people in 2020. According to a Johns Hopkins report, “in 2020, one out of every 1,000 young black males (15–34) was shot and killed” and, “more than half of all black teens (15–19) who died in 2020—a staggering 52%—were killed by gun violence.”
CDC numbers showed that homicide is a leading cause of death among black men under the age of 20, and from the ages of 20 to 44. White men are killed by guns at the rate of 3.15 per 100,000 while black men die at the rate of 48.16 per 100,000. Pro-crime policies increase crime and kill thousands of black people. That’s what a real disproportionate impact looks like.
Every time pro-crime politicians free criminals, pro-crime prosecutors refuse to prosecute violent offenders, and legislatures eliminate bail, the impact is felt most strongly in the black community.
Law enforcement isn’t racist, but getting rid of it is. When a community depends more on a particular service, losing it has a clear disproportionate impact. Keeping the peace, arresting offenders and dispensing justice is one of the few primal duties of government. The breach in the social contract when the government fails to provide peacekeeping services is devastating.
Most crimes are committed by repeat offenders. The only way to interrupt the cycle of violence is to lock them up. Successful tough on crime policies in the 90s made cities safe once again and led to an economic boom in inner cities. Manhattan’s Harlem went from a danger zone to hosting Bill Clinton’s office, but in 2022, crime increased 44%. The Clinton offices have mostly moved down to the Wall Street area, but where they remain in Central Harlem, crime is up 32%. Next door in West Harlem, it’s up 133%. That means Bill is less likely to tour the Apollo Theater, but it also means that the mostly black residents are the ones feeling the worst of it.
Pro-crime activists have spent years regaling us with the suffering of convicts while caring very little about the shattered lives they have left in their wake. Foundations, protest groups, activist organizations and even PACs have spent hundreds of millions lobbying for criminals, fighting for their release and remaking our system to favor perpetrators, not victims. Their political success has come with a very high cost. And much of that burden has fallen on black people.
It is hard to think of any single policy in the last generation that has done more harm to black people or claimed more lives than the pro-crime agenda. Pro-crime activists have falsely claimed that police shootings of black men are a form of genocide. They’re not. Crime is.
One studycounted 286,075 firearm deaths among black people from 1990 to 2021. That’s over a quarter of a million deaths. Some of them are due to suicide, but suicides are much lower among black people than white people, and the majority of black gun deaths were homicides.
And seeing a quarter of a million deaths, the pro-crime Left wants even more bodies.
Those quarter of a million deaths have been largely self-inflicted, but, much as with the welfare state, they were aided and abetted by white liberal policymakers who had come to believe that what the black community really needed was for the government to enable its criminals.
Racist liberal condescension continues to destroy black communities, families and lives.
2020 demonstrated that tough on crime policies can save thousands of black lives and, over time, perhaps even hundreds of thousands of black lives. Pro-crime policies are a racist disaster which reduced black people to criminals and then set out to free criminals to help black people.
That’s why 1 out of every 1,000 young black men are dead.
Pro-crime policies are racist. They enable a crime epidemic that has killed more black people than the total number of battlefield casualties for all races in the Civil War. More black people died in the year of Black Lives Matter than our entire death toll in the Iraq War.
Can it get worse than this? In 1991, 12,226 black people were murdered. For the first time, more black people were killed than white people. The numbers are trending that way once again. While the Left claims that highways and dress codes are systemically racist, their pro-crime policies are a racist program that promises liberation but offers only mass death.

BLACK FASCISM, HATE, VIOLENCE. ANTI-SEMITIC HOAX
7. BLM also formed a political action committee "to increase voter participation and turnout, and to endorse candidates who move us toward Black liberation."
“Of course, one of the main reasons the nation is now “divided, resentful and angry” is because race-baiting, Islamist, class warrior Barack Hussein Obama was president for eight long years." MATTHEW VADUM
The Democrat party likes to argue that Republicans are the party of white nationalism and white supremacy. That's quite an argument from the party of Nathan Bedford Forrest (D-KKK), Theodore Bilbo, Jefferson Davis, Woodrow Wilson, and Bull Connor against the party that came into existence partially due to abolitionism. It's also quite an accusation from a party that aligns openly with a racist and black nationalist hate group.
In contrast to the left's pigeon chess (knock over the pieces, call your opponent a racist, and say you have won), I can back this up to the hilt with objective evidence, not from right-wing or Republican sources, but from Black Lives Matter Global Network itself. The Republican Party needs to make this issue a central talking point in 2024 instead of throwing away yet another election with claims of election fraud and, most recently, an ad that speculates on whether Communist China will invade Taiwan and the economy will collapse. Joe Biden is in fact increasing military aid to Taiwan, and, despite the downfall of Silicon Valley Bank, whose environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risk ratings had little to do with banking, this is not 1929, and the government is making good depositors' losses while allowing the banks themselves to go under as they deserve.
Here is the ad to which I refer. Its opening is reminiscent of Orson Welles's radio broadcast of War of the Worlds and also the infamous Daisy Girl commercial from 1964. What if the ChiComs invade Taiwan? What if Martians start blasting us with heat rays and drinking our blood for sustenance? Appeal to primal emotions may get buy-in from some people, but most resent this kind of manipulation. I'm a registered Republican, and the GOP ad does not appeal to me, so I doubt that it will appeal to the swing voters who decide elections. Let's try this instead.
1. Black Lives Matter says it is black nationalist. "Second, this property has served as a safe haven to protect the leaders of our Black nationalist movement." This isn't an accusation from a conservative source, or people who don't like BLM; it's from BLM itself.
2. While black nationalists don't like Caucasians in general or Jews in particular, black and white nationalists actually collaborate to promote hatred of Jews. "Beyond [Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam], a web of white supremacists and black nationalists are linked together by online social networks that propagate anti-Semitic imagery, wild conspiracy theories about the effort of Jews to control America, and other forms of propaganda designed to foster hatred of Jews." This is not to say that white and black nationalists really like each other; their racist views would preclude that. They probably do, however, have a mutually acceptable goal of a Judenrein (Jew-free) North America with segregated "whites only" and "colored only" regions for each group. My own suggestion is for both groups to follow Theodore Roosevelt's advice for those unwilling to assimilate with our country and its values to go back where they came from. Then they will not need to look at people whose skin color differs from their own, Americans of all races will not need to look at them, and everybody will be happy.

The Tablet Magazine reference adds, "In comparing BDS to the boycott in South Africa during the apartheid era, black nationalist groups have found a wider audience for their transhistorical anti-Semitic hate while cloaking it in the language of normative anti-racist politics." Black Lives Matter supports the BDS movement and denies the right of Israel to exist.
4. Sullivan Israel of Santa Barbara, CA adds that BLM carried out a "pogrom," and he invoked the image of rampaging Cossacks, against Jews in his neighborhood. "On the night of May 30, while the rioters looted and burned without the intervention of the local police, they chanted an obscene message attacking the police and saying 'kill the Jews.' ... The 'protest' was organized by BLM-L.A.'s leader, Melina Abdullah, who has on numerous occasions said incredibly anti-Semitic things, as well as endorsing and defending multiple outspoken anti-Semites like Louis Farrakhan."
We have accordingly established so far that (1) BLM is black nationalist and (2) black nationalism is racist and anti-Semitic. It differs little if at all from white nationalist movements who think there should be a country, possibly carved out of the United States, for white people only and a separate reservation put aside for non-white people.
5. Black Lives Matter solicits 501(c)(3) donations via ActBlue Charities. While ActBlue says it is independent from the Democrat party, it adds, "ActBlue is not run by the official Democratic Party or any other organization. We are a mission-based organization, which is why only Democrats and progressive organizations (not Republicans) can use our tools to fundraise." This "mission-based organization" is now on record as processing donations to a black nationalist entity whose values are just as inconsistent with those of the United States as those of white nationalists or indeed anybody who thinks there should be a nation, other than the multiracial and multiethnic United States, between Canada and Mexico.
6. Black Lives Matter is still using 501(c)(3) resources to campaign openly against Donald Trump. "This is how Trump's proto-fascism has become normalized. No matter the laws the presidents [sic] breaks, no matter the communities or countries he insults, no matter the catastrophes he creates, the President has been allowed to pretend that the social peace is intact. ... Like a Nazi trying to hide a neck tatoo [sic], Trump shows his true colors whenever he shifts aimlessly from empty platitude to veiled threat." BLM and its enablers might have argued that this page no longer seeks to influence the 2020 election, but, as Trump has declared his candidacy for 2024, BLM comes across as seeking to influence a presidential election. While I can't give legal or tax advice, this comes across as problematic.
7. BLM also formed a political action committee "to increase voter participation and turnout, and to endorse candidates who move us toward Black liberation." The Internal Revenue Service says, "No, a section 501(c)(3) organization may not make a contribution to a political organization described in section 527 (such as a candidate committee, political party committee or political action committee [PAC]). Nor may such an organization establish and maintain a separate segregated fund under section 527."
The 2024 election is ours to win, but only if we stick to real issues such as not just the Democrat party's ties to racists and Jew-haters like Al Sharpton, but also squandering money we don't have on things we don't need like student loan forgiveness when our country is $32 trillion in debt. The Democrat party's efforts to force Americans to use costly and unproven renewable energy sources (I am all for economical and reliable ones), New York's ban on natural gas appliances, New York City squandering $150 million to turn a Hilton hotel into 300 units of affordable housing (that's $500,000 a unit), and similar conduct also are winners for Republicans. Unproven election fraud claims and ads full of sensationalism but short on facts are not.

The author is remaining anonymous due to the likely prospect of being subjected to cancel culture for exposing the Big Lie behind Black Lives Matter.
The ticketing giant hated by Taylor Swift fans and everyone else who has ever tried to buy concert tickets is now under fire from Jewish activists for selling tickets to a Louis Farrakhan event in which the minister defended Adolf Hitler and predicted another Holocaust against Jews. But many of Ticketmaster's biggest critics on Capitol Hill don't seem to care.
Ticketmaster, which charges service fees on each ticket it sells, raked in money selling tickets to Farrakhan's annual Saviours' Day conference in Chicago last weekend. During his speech at the event, Farrakhan assailed the "stranglehold that Jews have on this government" and claimed "Jewish power is what has all of our people of knowledge and wisdom and talent afraid."
The event was met with crickets on Capitol Hill, with almost no one in Congress speaking out against Ticketmaster for making money off of the Farrakhan event. The reaction is a stark contrast to lawmakers' response when Ticketmaster bungled sales last year for Taylor Swift's much-anticipated concert tour. That fiasco was in the news cycle for weeks and led to a Department of Justice investigation as well as a Senate hearing. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle say Ticketmaster and its parent company, LiveNation, have a monopoly over the ticket industry, leading to price-gouging and a failure to crack down on automated scalping.
"Daily reminder that Ticketmaster is a monopoly, it’s merger with LiveNation should never have been approved, and they need to be reigned in [sic]," wrote Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) in a Twitter post in November. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R., Wash.), now the chairwoman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, sent a letter to Ticketmaster last year raising concerns about its practices, while Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.) and Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) called on the Department of Justice to investigate. None of their offices responded to a request for comment on Ticketmaster's Farrakhan sales.
Only Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.)—who also spoke out about the Taylor Swift debacle—weighed in on the Farrakhan controversy when contacted by the Washington Free Beacon.
"It is extremely concerning that Ticketmaster is choosing to use its platform to elevate and promote a well-known anti-Semite. The targeting of the Jewish people has gone on far too long and must stop," she said.
Entertainment industry leaders and Jewish groups had urged Ticketmaster to drop the Farrakhan event from its sales platform, but Ticketmaster did not waver. The Anti-Defamation League also sent a letter to Ticketmaster on Friday to "note that the Nation of Islam’s annual Saviors’ Day event regularly serves as a platform to amplify this hate and bigotry." The group said it was not calling on the company to halt ticket sales.
The event came as anti-Semitism is on the rise in the United States. Hate crimes against Jews have surged in majorcities, while celebrities like Kanye West and Kyrie Irving have promoted anti-Jewish conspiracy theories on social media. Farrakhan during his speech praised West as a "very great brother" and "genius."
"Ye broke into the fashion industry, that’s controlled by Jews," said Farrakhan. "Don’t be mad with them. They’re in every avenue that leads to power."
"Somebody has to take on the synagogue of Satan, and here we are," he said. "We cannot let them take the country."
Farrakhan criticized Jews who use the phrase "Never Again" when discussing the Holocaust.
"You can say that to men, but you can’t say that to God. Because the Bible says, behold, the day cometh that shall burn—as a what?—as an oven. And those who do wickedly, He will slay them."
"God is not unjust; when he kills you, you know you deserved it," he added.
Farrakhan also defended the Nazis by citing an argument he supposedly heard from a Jewish rabbi on TV.
"Usury is what has made [the Jews] strong. I heard a Jewish rabbi, maybe about six weeks ago, he came on television talking about Adolf Hitler," said Farrakhan. "And he said Hitler was right. He said Hitler went against usury and Hitler attacked pornography that the Jews had put on the Germans."
Farrakhan and his group, the Nation of Islam, promote numerous conspiracy theories about Jews, including that Jews control the government, the media, and global financial institutions.
Last week, a group of entertainment industry leaders sent a letter to Ticketmaster CEO Michael Rapino calling on the company to drop the sales of the Farrakhan event and citing the preacher’s long history of anti-Semitism.
BARACK OBAMA
Nickname(s): Barry O’Bummer, the Choom Gangsta, Hussein in the Membrane
Occupation: Serial memoirist, nicotine addict, property owner, Netflix producer, secret Muslim, 44th president of the United States
Background: “Born” in “Hawaii” in 1961, B. Hussein Obama moved with his mother at age six to Indonesia and ate dog meat. He returned to Hawaii years later to join the Honolulu-based “choom gang” and experiment with drugs before “enrolling” at Occidental College, followed by Columbia, followed by Harvard Law School. After publishing his first memoir at age 33, Obama worked in the Illinois state government under the tutelage of left-wing terrorist Bill Ayers before getting elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004 and immediately running for president to validate his preternatural self-regard. Mission accomplished.
Hobbies: Hanging out with celebs, drinking wine with “interesting Italians,” and complainingabout his wife’s literary success. Being wrong about politics might even be considered one of Obama’s hobbies. In 2016, for example, he backed Hillary Clinton over his own vice president. We all know how that turned out. In 2020, Obama was “enamored” with failed candidate Beto O’Rourke and feared Joe Biden would “dishonor himself” by running. He didn’t even donate to Biden’s campaign.
Hates freedom? Without question.
Why/how? Where to begin? As president Obama relished every opportunity to apologize for American exceptionalism, which he dismissively likened to “British exceptionalism” or “Greek exceptionalism.” His signature move when greeting foreign leaders was the submissive bow. He brazenly lied about whether Americans would be able to keep their doctors following the passage of Obamacare. He repeatedly expressed frustration with the fact that he was merely president of the United States, as opposed to an “emperor” or “dictator” with total authority to decide how the American people should live their lives. Apart from coddling terrorists, his signature foreign policy achievements include presiding over the death of an American ambassador in Benghazi and cozying up to the anti-American regimes in Iran and Cuba.
Claim(s) to shame: Generally speaking, Obama is a pathological narcissist who journalists lustily admired as president because he reminded them so much of themselves and satisfied their overwhelming desire to publicly demonstrate opposition to racism and other bad things. He resented the American people for constantly letting him down, and behaved as though the office of the presidency was beneath him. In March 2014, for example, Obama refused to let Russia’s impending annexation of Crimea spoil his vacation plans. “I needed this,” he told former NBA star Alonzo Mourning and other guests at the Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo. “I needed the golf. I needed to laugh.”
Fun fact(s): Obama is the first former president since Dwight Eisenhower, commander of the D-Day invasion, to compose a multi-volume memoir about his time in office. During the 2012 election, the Choom Gangsta voted for himself at precisely 4:20 p.m.
What’s next? Becoming the first ex-president billionaire, finishing his third memoir, and eventually publishing a 900-page novel that reviewers will unanimously praise as “Holden Caulfield meets Ta-Nehisi Coates … an intellectual call to arms,” because they’ll be too gutless to admit it’s rather tedious and overwrought.
The Top Ten Jew-Hating Professors in America
American universities: a breeding ground for Jew-hatred.
A dire epidemic of Jew hatred is emanating from our college campuses, infecting our larger society and culture. Nearly every day brings a new report of anti-Semitic campus hate crimes. Jewish religious symbols such as menorahs and mezuzot are desecrated, swastikas and comments like “Hitler was right,” and “F—k Israel” are scrawled on residence hall doors and classroom buildings. Jewish fraternities and campus Hillel buildings are repeatedly targeted with anti-Jewish slurs.
A 2023 report from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) found a 41% increase in antisemitic incidents on American campuses in 2022, as compared to the also horrendous 36% increase in the U.S. at large. Another joint study undertaken by the ADL and Hillel in 2021 found that nearly a third of college Jewish students reported having personally experienced anti-Semitism on campus. Of those who experienced anti-Semitism, 79% reported experiencing it repeatedly. “Their concern about antisemitism can impede their ability to participate in classes, join clubs, and display their Jewish identity proudly,” the study’s authors concluded.
As David Horowitz wrote recently, “Our premier universities have in their liberal arts programs become one-party states ruled by ignorance and bigotry, and thus breeding grounds for civic and racial hatreds and lawlessness.” Among the many insidious ways in which our universities have poisoned American society and public life, Jew hatred looms large among them.
Prestigious academic organizations including the American Studies Association and the Middle East Studies Association, among others, have passed measures endorsing an academic boycott of Israeli colleges and universities—a form of the genocidal Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement that aims to isolate and annihilate the Jewish state.
Instead of using their positions to combat this Jew hatred, many faculty at prestigious universities across America instead deliberately fan its flames. They use the official resources of the University, both financial and academic, to promote terrorist propaganda lies accusing Jews and Israelis of being “colonial settlers” and imperialist aggressors. They publish articles and academic works spreading ancient tropes of Jewish blood libel or seeking to obscure the Jews’ historical connection to the land of Israel. They abuse their positions of authority over students in the classroom to deliver diatribes characterizing Israel as an inhumane aggressor and the Palestinians as its innocent victims. They invite extremist, terrorist-supporting speakers to campus to speak at official university functions or as guest lecturers in class.
The ten professors profiled in this report as the “Top Ten Jew-Hating Professors in America” have done all this and more. Some are employed by public universities, some by private educational institutions, but every school among them receives federal monies in one form or another and is thus bound by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal aid. In an executive order issued in 2019, then-president Donald Trump directed federal agencies to enforce this law against institutions that discriminated against Jews, since Judaism is both a religion and a nationality/race. Despite this clear mandate, American universities have continued to flout the law and harbor academics who perpetrate blatant Jew hatred upon the student population.
We call on the universities implicated in this report to put an immediate end to the Jew hatred infecting their campuses and to take action against faculty who continue to promulgate anti-Semitism on campus, creating an unsafe environment for Jewish students. If they should fail to do so, we urge Congress to withhold all federal funding until they eliminate this cancer in their midst.

#1: Rabab Abdulhadi Associate Professor of Ethnic Studies/Race and Resistance Studies Senior Scholar of the Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative San Francisco State University
On a campus already known for extremists and anti-Semites, Professor Rabab Abdulhadi serves as the public face of SFSU’s Jew hatred. To say that Abdulhadi is notorious is an understatement. She is a rabidly anti-Semitic professor of Ethnic Studies who also heads SFSU’s Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative (AMED), an academic program which flouts its anti-Semitism by openly declaring Zionism to be racism and Israel to be the occupier of Palestine. AMED is known for sponsoring events which feature posters reading, “My Heroes Have Always Killed Colonizers,” referring to Israel’s Jews.
Abdulhadi has glorified anti-Israel terrorism in public talks. A letter sent by a coalition of concerned Jewish groups to SFSU President Leslie Wong in 2014 describes in chilling detail how an Ethnic Studies Department event organized by Abdulhadi featured “wild inaccuracies, monstrous distortions, and blatant lies — all intended to demonize and delegitimize the Jewish state and promote a boycott that would hasten its demise.”
Professor Abdulhadi’s husband, Jaime Veve, a union activist, also spoke at the event to exalt anti-Semitic terrorists and murderers. The letter to President Wong describes how Veve “insisted that Palestinians who had injured or murdered Jews were not terrorists but rather ‘heroes or heroines’ who had ‘committed political acts of defiance and resistance,’ and he justified Palestinian terrorism by calling it ‘the cry of a baby calling for the attention of the world.’”
During her tenure at SFSU, Abdulhadi has sought to build relationships with anti-Israel terrorists. While attending a university-sponsored trip to Israel in 2014, she met with anti-Israel terrorists Leila Khaled and Sheikh Raed Salah. Abdulhadi has praised Khaled, a notorious airplane hijacker, as “an icon in liberation movements and…an icon for women’s liberation.” Salah served a prison sentence in Israel for aiding the terrorist group Hamas. He has also been charged for incitement to violence for giving a public speech in which he accused Jews of using the blood of Palestinian children to bake their bread. Despite this, Abdulhadi has insisted that he does not have terrorist ties.
In September 2020, Abdulhadi and AMED held an event featuring Khaled. Abdulhadi planned to stream the event on Zoom, but the platform canceled its coverage citing Khaled’s terrorist record.
Abdulhadi also attempted to open a formal collaboration between SFSU and An-Najah National University in Nablus, Palestine. An-Najah University has been described by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) as “known for its advocacy of anti-Israel violence and its recruitment of Palestinian college students into terrorist groups.”
The notorious professor has not hesitated to use her privileged position as a professor at SFSU to promote her anti-Israel agenda. Abdulhadi is a founding member of the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI), and also supports the wider Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel, an anti-Semitic, Hamas-funded campaign to isolate and weaken the Jewish state. She frequently promotes BDS at university-sponsored events and forums.
In March 2019, she shared a live video and statement on the official Facebook page for the Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative (AMED). The statement demonized Israel and invoked anti-Semitic conspiracy tropes by accusing the SFSU administration of “collaborat[ing] with the Zionist designs to silence us… staff, faculty and community who view Israel (as I do) as a colonial, racist and occupying power…” and labeled the administration’s conduct as “the weaponizing of free speech in the service of Nazis, Zionists and other white supremacists…” In July 2019, she shared an image of a large banner exhorting “Zionism = Racism, Silence = Death, Palestine is a Queer Issue – Boycott! Divest! Sanction!”
Abdulhadi has repeatedly propagated anti-Semitic tropes accusing Jews of conspiring to orchestrate world affairs and of possessing dual loyalties—a slur implying that Jews have more loyalty to Israel than to America or other nations. In September 2020, the professor said on Facebook: “I think we need to go to [then U.S. vice presidential candidate] Kamala Harris and say to her: ‘…It’s not okay that some of our representatives actually have dual Israeli-U.S. passport. That’s not okay! That’s not okay!…”
In a February, 2019 interview with Arab Talk, Abdulhadi denigrated pro-Israel groups in America, saying [00:07:09]: “These groups are bullies…they push around in Congress and they bribe them, and they give them money, they twist their arms and so on, there are used to basically silencing everybody and crushing everybody.”
While Abdulhadi uses the public resources of San Francisco State to promote her Jew hatred, she is notably less tolerant toward pro-Israel views. When SFSU President Leslie Wong was forced to clarify that he welcomes Zionists at the University, Abdulhadi responded by equating Zionists with the KKK: “I’m waiting for him to say, white supremacists is welcome, KKK is welcome, David Horowitz is welcome, Richard Spenser is welcome, Neo-Nazis are welcome, homophobes are welcome, misogynists are welcome, why stop only at Zionists? Welcome them all. I mean bring the…whole club. Bring everybody who is right wing and racist, bring them to campus, why only stop at Zionists.”
Nor is her promotion of Jew hatred limited in scope to SFSU’s campus. In a guest lecture in a UCLA anthropology class in the Spring of 2019, Abdulhadi equated Zionism with “white supremacy,” refusing to back down even when a Jewish student tearfully attempted to counter her vitriol.
Abdulhadi has also dedicated herself to encouraging the next generation of Jew haters. For several years she served as faculty advisor to SFSU’s chapter of the General Union of Palestinian Students (GUPS), an SJP surrogate group. During her tenure as faculty advisor, organization president Mohammad G. Hammad was exposed as having written a number of threateningsocial media posts describing his wish to attack students, teachers and Israeli soldiers and to ally himself with anti-Israel terrorists including the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). Hammad’s posts included a photo of himself holding a large knife with the caption, “I seriously cannot get over how much I love this blade. It is the sharpest thing I own and cuts through everything like butter and just holding it makes me want to stab an Israeli soldier…” Hammad was investigated for terrorism by the FBI.
Despite her atrocious record, Abdulhadi is still being lauded as a leader in her field. In January 2023, the Middle East Studies Association (MESA) awarded its 2022 Jere L. Bacharach Service Award to Abdulhadi—a dubious honor given MESA’s own record of anti-Semitism and extreme hostility toward Israel. Professor Abdulhadi exemplifies the worst of Jew hatred in academia and deserves her place atop the list of Jew-hating professors.
UC-Berkeley Professor Hatem Bazian has a notorious record of promulgating Jew hatred, dating back to his days as a student at San Francisco State University where he served as president of the General Union of Palestinian Students, an extremist anti-Israel group that fomented a virulent anti-Semitism on campus. In 2001, while a graduate student at UC-Berkeley, Bazian co-founded the Hamas front group Students for Justice in Palestine to support the Second Palestinian Intifada. The Second Intifada introduced suicide bombing into the attacks on Israel’s citizens in September 2000.
In the two decades since its founding, chapters of SJP have proliferated across the nation, and are now active on approximately 200 American college and university campuses, broadcasting Hamas propaganda and advocating the destruction of the Jewish state. Bazian also founded the Hamas front group American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) and serves as the chairman of its board. AMP funnels Hamas funds to SJP chapters on American campuses to aid the BDS movement to destroy Israel.
Throughout his academic career, Bazian has promoted classic anti-Semitic tropes and fostered Jew hatred. In May 2002, Bazian participated in a Middle Eastern “cultural assembly” at George Washington High School. Under his leadership, the event the was dedicated to extreme anti-Israel rhetoric including a student-sung rap song that compared Zionists to Nazis, which was accompanied by other students parading with Palestinian flags behind the performer. The high school sent out letters of apology after the event.
At a 2004 anti-war rally in San Francisco, Bazian called for an Intifada, or violent uprising, in America:
“Well, we’ve been watching [an] Intifada in Palestine, we’ve been watching an uprising in Iraq, and the question is that what are we doing? How come we don’t have an Intifada in this country? Because it seem[s] to me, that we are comfortable in where we are, watching CNN, ABC, NBC, Fox, and all these mainstream … giving us a window to the world while the world is being managed from Washington, from New York, from every other place in here in San Francisco: Chevron, Bechtel, [Carlyle?] Group, Halliburton; every one of those lying, cheating, stealing, deceiving individuals are in our country and we’re sitting here and watching the world pass by, people being bombed, and it’s about time that we have an Intifada in this country that change[s] fundamentally the political dynamics in here. And we know … they’re gonna say some Palestinian [is] being too radical. Well, you haven’t seen radicalism yet!”
In July 2017, Bazian retweeted an anti-Semitic meme which plays on classic tropes of Jewish blood libel and also compares Jews to the Nazis. The meme was originally tweeted by infamous anti-Semite Ron Hughes, whose account Bazian follows. It featured a photo of a man presumed to be Jewish, with Hasidic style curls, with the quoted statement: “MOM LOOK! I IS CHOSEN! I CAN NOW KILL, RAPE, SMUGGLE ORGANS & AND STEAL THE LAND OF PALESTINIANS *YAY* ASHKE-NAZI”
Bazian has promoted the idea of a world Jewish conspiracy, telling student protestors on one occasion to “look at the Jewish names on the school buildings” and adding “Take a look at the type of names on the buildings around campus — Haas, Zellerbach — and decide who controls this university.” He has also called the U.S. Congress “an Israeli-occupied territory” and has suggested that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) controls U.S. foreign policy.
Professor Bazian’s Jew hatred extends to his role as an instructor. He now serves as a lecturer in the Department of Ethnic Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He also founded the Center for the Study of Documentation of Islamophobia on campus in 2009. The Toronto Sun reported in 2014 that Bazian requires students enrolled in his course on “Islamophobia” to create a Twitter account and tweet weekly on Islamophobia. “I can’t help but feel this is unethical,” commented a student taking the class. “This is his agenda not mine.”
The student noted that Bazian “excludes both the Twitter account requirement AND the final project from his official syllabus”—perhaps an indication that he is trying to conceal his use of the classroom to promote Jew hatred.
The controversial professor has repeatedly defended the anti-Israel terror group Hamas, tweeting an article which disputed Hamas’s status as a terrorist organization. The article claimed that “The Europeans who fought Nazism with arms were labeled ‘terrorist’ by Hitler. Hamas is fighting against the occupation of Palestinian lands and is labeled ‘terrorist.’” Bazian also spoke at a 2018 event hosted by American Muslims for Palestine and other Hamas-linked anti-Israel groups which promoted the cause of Hamas-affiliated insurgents who participated in the so-called “Great Return March,” which in truth was an attack on Israel’s borders.
In truth, Israel does not occupy one square inch of Palestinian or Arab land. It was built on land confiscated from the Turks who are neither Arabs nor Palestinians, and given to the Jews by the United Nations in 1948. The Arabs who were given 80% of the so-called Palestine Mandate promptly attacked the new Jewish state with the goal of “pushing the Jews into the sea.”
These facts do not stop Bazian from delegitimizing and demonizing Israel. The professor retweeted a February 2021 tweet which asked rhetorically: “Is there a single Jewish politician of prominence in Israel who does not publiclly call for ethnic cleaning of all Palestinians?”
For his voluminous record in spreading Jew hatred and defending Israel’s terrorist enemies, Professor Bazian belongs on the list of America’s worst Jew-hating professors.
Professor Lara Sheehi’s mandatory diversity class at George Washington University comes with a non-optional quotient of Jew hatred. On the first day of the class, which students enrolled in the Professional Psychology Program at the university are required to take, Sheehi asked students to describe their cultural background and heritage. When a student identified herself as Israeli, the professor responded, “It’s not your fault you were born in Israel.”
According to a complaint filed in early 2023 with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights by the Jewish nonprofit StandWithUs, “During the Fall 2022 semester, Jewish and Israeli students in the Program’s mandatory diversity course were singled out for repeated and persistent harassment when their Jewish and Israeli identities were disparaged by faculty and peers.”
The first day of class was only the prelude to a long semester of harassment for Jewish students. Sheehi also invited Israeli academic, Dr. Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, to give an address on campus. Shalhoub-Kevorkian is a notorious anti-Semite who has invoked ancient blood libels against the Jewish people by falsely accusing Israel of testing experimental weapons on Palestinian children.
During her speech, Shalhoub-Kevorkian made comments demonizing Jews and Israelis, stating that “good deeds done by Jews and Israelis are done to mask sinister activity.” She stated that Israel’s humanitarian efforts across the globe were an attempt to “use tikkun olam [the Jewish value of bettering the world] to camouflage [Israel’s] oppressive power.” She further advocated for violent “resistance” against Israel (a euphemism for terrorism) and praised a Palestinian teenager who participated in the violent and unprovoked stabbing of an Israeli child in 2015.
Following Shalhoub’s outrageous and anti-Semitic diatribe, Jewish students in Sheehi’s class described in class why the address had made them feel “vulnerable and unsafe.” One Jewish student correctly labeled the talk as a two hour diatribe against the Jews and expressed her doubt that the university would allow any other cultural or religious minority to be thus targeted.
Instead of validating and addressing these students’ legitimate concerns, Professor Sheehi outright denied that the lecture had amounted to anti-Semitism. She claimed that “anti-Zionism is not antisemitism,” and asserted that this declaration was a “non-negotiable truth” like a “historical fact.” Incredibly, Sheehi took this line of thought even further, adding that “Zionism in and of itself indicates that Jewish folks are different. There are many people who say that Zionism in and of itself is an antisemitic movement. Why? Because it locates that Jewish folks are that much more different that they need to have a space unto themselves.”
Having failed to persuade Professor Sheehi of their concerns, Jewish students in the class tried several times to bring their concerns to the university administration and to ask for an alternative to taking her required course. The GWU administration was not responsive. Even worse, once Sheehi learned that these students had complained about her to the administration, she began spreading lies about them, calling them “combative” and racist and ultimately filing disciplinary charges against them.
“She turned the faculty against the Jewish students by spreading lies about us and our conduct, she disparaged us in front of our classmates, calling us Islamophobes,” a student from the course, speaking anonymously, told The Algemeiner. “She smeared our name in a community where success as a therapist really depends on relationships with our faculty supervisors and our colleagues. The disciplinary proceedings effectively silenced us, making it clear that you can’t be a Jew and you can’t speak up about antisemitism safely in this program.”
While Professor Sheehi’s conduct in the classroom has only recently come under scrutiny, it is clear that her Jew hatred—and likely her expression of it in the classroom—has been going on for years.
The Canary Mission, an organization dedicated to exposing anti-Semitism, has collected a number of her tweets and comments. On August 4, 2020, in response to a story about Israel offering aid to Lebanon in the wake of a deadly industrial explosion, Sheehi tweeted: “F**K YOU AND F**K YOUR ‘AID’. Destroy Zionism and commit to land back, then we’ll take you seriously you f**king genocidal f**ks. F**k you.”
In April 2022, Sheehi tweeted: “MY RAGE CAN LIGHT A THOUSAND SUNS RIGHT NOW. F**k ALL settlers. #LongLiveTheResistance #PalestineWillBeFree.” As the Canary Mission website explains, “Among Palestinians and anti-Israel activists, the term ‘resistance’ can be a euphemism for nationalistic terror. It is often used to excuse or even glorify anti-Israel and anti-Semitic violence.”
For her blatant discrimination and abuse of Jewish students and her unwarranted hostility and wishes for violence against the Jewish homeland, Professor Sheehi deserves to be named one of the top Jew-hating professors in America.
#4: Abbas Ghassemi Teaching Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of California-Merced
UC-Merced Professor Abbas Ghassemi has become notorious for his rabid Jew-hatred expressed in both English and Farsi on a now-deleted twitter account.
In June 2020, Ghassemi shared a cartoon caricature of the “Zionist Brain,” which contained a “frontal money lobe,” “world domination lobe,” a “terrorism centre,” “Holocaust Memory Center,” “Self Pity Lobe” and “compulsive lying olfactory.” A caption under the image reads: “Note: The ‘compassion for others’ gland is not shown due to its small and underdeveloped nature. Best viewed under a microscope.” Ghassemi then commented on this outrageous display of Jew-hatred, stating: “…reality bites!!!!!!”
In November of 2020, he again displayed his deranged hatred for the Jewish people, sharing a graphic titled “Jewish Victim Card” which stated, “As a Jewish person if I am accused of anything I am in no part criminally responsible. All accusations are fueled by anti-Semitism…If there is any doubt, please refer to the Holocaust.” A caption accompanying the image stated, “Here in [America] you can criticize God but not [Israel][chin-scratching emoji].”
Professor Ghassemi has also made numerous tweets promoting classic anti-Semitic tropes about Jews controlling the world media and the economy. “[T]he Zionists and IsraHell interest have embedded themselves in every component of the American system, media, banking, policy, commerce, … just a veneer of serving US interest and population – everyone pretends that is the case,” he tweeted in December, 2020. “[T]he entire system in America, government, banking, media, …. is owned and operated by the Zionists and IsraHell,” Ghassemi stated in another tweet. “Everyone pretends like this is America, land of liberty and beacon of light. Doing criminal acts under this cover is prescribed from the Zionist masters!”
Anti-Semitic blood libel tropes also feature in Ghassemi’s social media activism. In October of 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet featuring an Israeli plane that had the word “Peace” written in blood on it, alongside a Palestinian child with a knife in his back. The caption for this horrifying image read, “Death to israel.”
In November, 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet accusing Israel of “50 years of brutality” and added, “They have extorted $$$ from everyone that has been doped everywhere under every auspices including religion, Judaism and Christianity. Zionists and the thugs in IsraHell lack human decency and principles!”
In November 2020, Ghassemi marked the occasion of the presidential election by sharing a tweet stating, “Trump or Biden? Democrat or Republican? What difference does it make when American policy is determined by the Zionists? What difference does it make when the Zionists ask the United States for the colonization and arrogance of other countries? #AmericanDelusion.” The tweet was accompanied by an image of two hands representing the nations of Israel and America shaking, while spilling blood on a map of “Palestine.” Ghassemi commented on this graphic promotion of anti-Semitism: “Right on. Well said. The entire system has been Owens and operated by Zionist and IsraHELL for a very long time, no matter who is propped up in politics and every other sector!”
Ghassemi’s hatred for America and Israel is matched only by his appreciation of the Lebanese terrorist organization, Hezbollah, which has called for the annihilation of Israel and the Jewish people.
On November 4, 2020, Ghassemi shared a tweet pretending to illustrate a write-in vote for Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah in the American presidential election. “Love it!!!!,” Ghassemi wrote.
When news of Ghassemi’s abhorrent and abundant Jew hatred first made headlines in late 2020, UC-Merced initially chose to respond with a statement calling his views “repugnant.” Only after outrage from Jewish groups, did the university open an inquiry into whether the professor had violated the Faculty Code of Conduct. Notably, the twitter account Ghassemi used to share the virulent anti-Semitic conduct made note of his academic title and his attached biography stated that he was a professor at UC-Merced. As of the writing of this report in April 2023, Ghassemi is still listed as a “Teaching Professor” on UC-Merced’s website and abundantly deserves to be labeled one of the most anti-Semitic professors in America.
Marc Lamont Hill has had a long and storied career in both the media and academia, but his time in both fields has been sullied by his rabid anti-Semitism and support for Israel’s terrorist adversaries.
Hill has repeatedly glorified anti-Israel terrorists and promoted terrorism against the Jewish state. The professor has enthusiastically supported convicted Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist Ali Jiddah who planted hand grenades in downtown Jerusalem which injured nine innocent people. Hill posted a photo of himself with Jiddah on Instagram, praising him as a “true revolutionary,” and assisted with a GoFundMe campaign for the terrorist, calling him “instrumental in the struggle for Palestinian liberation.”
The professor has also lauded terrorist leader Marwan Barghouti, who is currently imprisoned for participating in suicide bombings and attacks that killed five Israelis during the second Intifada. Hill posted a mural featuring Barghouti that had been painted on Israel’s security fence on Instagram with the caption, “Art as Resistance.”
So enamored is the professor of anti-Israel violence, that Hill proudly boasts a tattoo featuring a man who is masked in a keffiyeh and holding a rock, a form of violent “resistance” against the Israeli Defense Forces that can have deadly consequences.
Hill’s rabid anti-Semitism was even too extreme for leftist media giant CNN. In 2018, Hill gave a speech at the United Nations, labeling the creation of Israel a “Nakba” or “catastrophe” and calling for “a free Palestine from the river to the sea,” a phrase often used by Israel’s enemies and terrorists to promote the total destruction of the Jewish state. Hill also demonized Israel, falsely accusing the Jewish state of “ethnic cleansing” along with “hatred and imperialism, and white supremacy, and patriarchy, and homophobia”—charges that are laughable when Israel is compared to its Arab neighbors where homosexuality is a criminal offense. Following this absurd address, CNN fired Hill from his position as a contributor to the network.
Hill has flaunted his friendship with notorious anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who has labeled Jews “termites” and “satanic” and claimed that “They control everything and mostly everybody.” In August 2016, Hill posted a photo of himself with Farrakhan on Instagram, commenting “Been blessed to spend the last day with Minister Louis Farrakhan. An amazing time of learning, listening, laughing, and even head nodding to music. God is Great.”
Also in 2016, Hill shared an interview with Farrakhan on Facebook in which the Nation of Islam leader again declared the Jews to be “Satanic” and responsible for “the blood shedding and the mischief that’s going on in the world.” Farrakhan went on to predict the downfall of the Jews, stating, “Once the world sees this Synagogue of Satan as it really is and knows the players, they fear what will happen to them. The world will turn against them and that is happening now as we speak.”
It is clear from Hill’s own words and deeds that he shares Farrakhan’s views on Israel and the Jewish people. In an online panel discussion from 2021, Hill spoke positively about how “Black Lives Matter very explicitly is talking about the dismantling of a Zionist project, dismantling of a settler-colonial project and very explicitly embracing BDS.” He has repeatedly promoted the genocidal Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, and has posted videos of BDS movement founder Omar Barghouti. He has also repeated anti-Semitic blood libel tropes, claiming that Israel was founded on laws “that have been co-signed in ink but written in the blood of the innocent” and that the Jewish state is “poisoning” Palestinian water.
For propagating blatant Jew hatred and lies about the state of Israel and valorizing the terrorists who have killed innocent Israeli citizens, Professor Marc Lamont Hill deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.
#6: Jasbir Puar Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Rutgers University
Professor Jasbir Puar serves as an Associate Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Rutgers University and also directs the University’s Graduate Program for the Women’s and Gender Studies Department. Puar is notorious for promoting ancient blood libel tropes against the Jewish people, a form of anti-Semitism that dates back to the Middle Ages.
Among her ridiculous claims, Puar has accused Israelis of harvesting the organs of Palestinians, intentionally maiming them, and stunting the growth of Palestinians by limiting the availability of food and resources to them, a strategy that Puar describes as a “biopolitical tactic that seeks to render impotent any future resistance.”
In a speech at Vassar College in 2016, Puar claimed that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) was responsible for “more than 120 deaths by field assassinations of young Palestinian men, largely between the ages of 12 to 16,” without mentioning how those young men perpetrated terrorist violence, including stabbings, against Israelis. She also claimed that the nation of Israel had “mined for organs for scientific research” from the Palestinian population.
Puar’s book, TheRight to Maim, repeats these anti-Semitic and blatantly false accusations, accusing Israel of “creating injury and maintaining Palestinian populations as perpetually debilitated, and yet alive, in order to control them” and also claiming that children are a “prime target” of Israel, when in fact the IDF goes to extreme lengths to avoid injury to children and civilians despite Hamas’s use of civilians, and particularly children, as human shields.
Puar has repeatedly used her academic position to promote the Hamas-funded Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, an anti-Semitic plot to weaken and ultimately destroy the Jewish state. She also serves as an Advisory Board member of the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI), which is directed at Israeli universities and cultural institutions.
Puar has defended violent acts of terrorism against Israelis, labeling them acts of “resistance” and stating that “we need BDS as part of organized resistance and armed resistance in Palestine as well.” She has also repeatedly praised anti-Israel terrorists.
In October 2020, Puar tweeted a video of a Zoom panel which featured a taped message from convicted terrorist Leila Khaled, a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) who participated in two airplane hijackings in the 1970’s. In the video posted by Puar, Khaled promoted violence against Israel, stating: “We have used all means of struggle and we are still determined to continue using all means of struggle including armed struggle.”
While many anti-Israel advocates deceitfully insist that their demonization of Zionism is not anti-Semitic, Puar herself has conflated Zionists and Jews, referring to Jews as “Zios” in a Facebook exchange with another faculty member. That same term, “Zios,” was commonly used by former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke to refer to the Jews.
For her abhorrent record of promulgating Jew hatred and supporting anti-Israel terrorists, Professor Puar is among the worst Jew-hating professors in America.
#7: Hamid Dabashi Hagop Kevorkian Professor of Iranian Studies and Comparative Literature Columbia University
Columbia University Professor Hamid Dabashi’s academic career has been repeatedly marred by outbursts of Jew hatred and the promulgation of anti-Semitic tropes and conspiracies. In 2004, the professor’s disdain for Jews and Israel was exposed in the film Columbia Unbecoming, which was produced by Jewish students on campus, and which named Dabashi and a handful of his colleagues in the university’s Department of Middle East and Asian Languages and Cultures (MEALAC) as contributing to an atmosphere of anti-Semitism on campus.
The film cites quotes from Dabashi, including one from an article he wrote where he described Israeli Jews as suffering from “a vulgarity of character that is bone-deep and structural to the skeletal vertebrae of its culture” due to “Half a century of systematic maiming and murdering of another people.” Another student mentioned an incident in which Dabashi suddenly cancelled class in order to attend an anti-Israel rally because he felt it was his “moral duty” to do so.
In the years since these initial accusations of anti-Semitism, Dabashi has only intensified his attacks on Israel and the Jewish people. He has repeatedly promoted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories which claim that the Jews act as a “cabal” to control world affairs and consolidate their power.
In a December 2009 article, Dabashi stated that “the pro-Israeli Zionist lobby in the US banked and invested heavily in infiltrating, buying, and paying for all the major and minor corridors of power.” In an editorial published in July 2008, Dabashi wrote that “[former United States President Barack] Obama began his speech in front of AIPAC by falling right into the oldest trap that the American Zionist cabal has in its bag of tricks — dispatching its lunatic fringe to spread rumours (via emails) of facts and fantasies…” More recently, in May of 2018, Dabashi posted on Facebook that “Every dirty treacherous ugly and pernicious act happening in the world just wait for a few days and the ugly name of ‘Israel’ will pop up as a key actor in the atrocities…”
Professor Dabashi has also promulgated Jew hatred by comparing the democratic nation of Israel with the Islamic terror state ISIS and Nazi Germany, another common trope of anti-Semites.
In April of 2019, Dabashi wrote on Facebook (in a now-deleted post): “What’s the difference between ISIS and ISRAEL? … ISIS murderous thugs conquered parts of Syria and declared a ‘caliphate,’ no decent human being on planet earth recognized their armed robbery or their ‘caliphate’ – their ISRAELI counterparts meanwhile conquered parts of Syria and declared it part of their Zionist settler colony – no decent human being on planet earth recognizes their armed robbery …”
Dabashi added to this rant by again insinuating that Jews exert power over the media: “ISIS does not have a platoon of clean shaven and well coiffured [sic] columnists at the New York Times propagating the cause of the terrorist outfit as the Zionists columnists do on a regular basis.”
In August of 2014, Dabashi authored an article that compared Gaza to Auschwitz, stating that Israelis share a “sustained murderous history – from Deir Yassin in 1948 to Gaza in 2014,” adding “Is that not Zionism, the ideological foundation stone of being an Israeli?”
In a Facebook post from July 2014, Dabashi again implied that the Israelis are tantamount to Nazis. He placed images of the Warsaw Ghetto and Gaza side-by-side and commented: “Warsaw Ghetto 1943 (the site of Jewish uprising against Nazi barbarism)–Gaza 2014 (the site of Palestinian resistance against Zionist militarism).”
During the so-called “Great March of Return” in 2018, during which Palestinian terrorists repeatedly assaulted the Israel/Gaza border, Dashabi reiterated blood libel tropes depicting the Jews and Israelis as bloodthirsty monsters.
In May of 2018, Dabashi claimed, “As of Tuesday 15 May 2018 Israeli army had cold-bloodedly and in full view of the world murdered more than 100 Palestinians… during the Great March of Return protests held in Gaza’s since 30 March.” Dashabi went on to add, “The Israeli flag, the very term ‘Israel’ are now and forever synonymous with mass murderers… with massacres, with land thieves, with incremental genocide, with war crimes, with crimes against humanity.”
In another post that month, Dashabi described the conflict as “an epic battle between defenseless good and viciously armed evil — with their bare hands and their naked souls and their exposed bodies Palestinians went to face pure evil,” depicting the Israelis as “mass murderers who massacred defenseless Palestinians.”
The professor went on to praise the actions of the violent Palestinians who assaulted the border of a sovereign nation, writing, “Palestinians just taught the world a priceless lesson — a master class in their power of dignity and defiance… and in doing so they told the whole pitiful gang of Zionists from Israel to the US to Saudi Arabia they can go to hell — for Palestinians are not going anywhere from Palestine — Palestine is theirs, they are the master of their own destiny— the inhabitants of their own homeland— neither their own corrupt leadership nor those disgusting colonists occupying their country have a say in the matter.”
For his abominable promotion of anti-Semitic tropes and absurd conspiracy theories targeting Jews and Israel, Professor Hamid Dabashi deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.
#8: Nader Hashemi Associate Professor, Director of the Center for Middle East Studies University of Denver
University of Denver Professor Nader Hashemi has engaged in numerous forms of Jew hatred over the course of his academic career, which has included stints teaching at Harvard, UCLA, and Northwestern University. As director of the Center for Middle East Studies at Denver, Hashemi has a position of great influence within his field—and he has repeatedly used it to promote the terrorist organization Hamas, to whitewash violence against the Jews and Israel, and to spread anti-Semitic conspiracy theories to the world at large.
In a lecture on Hamas that was broadcast on YouTube in 2015, Hashemi claimed that Hamas’s participation is necessary to resolving the Arab-Israeli conflict. The professor claimed that after the year 2000, there were “significant attempts by the leadership of Hamas to strike out and to present a more moderate face with respect to a political resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict”—a farcical claim given the 37 suicide bombings and thousands of rocket attacks launched by Hamas in the intervening years.
During his address, Hashemi also downplayed the horrifying sentiments stated in the Hamas charter which calls for the annihilation of the Jewish people and Israel. While acknowledging the “anti-Semitic” nature of these statements, Hashemi implied that this call for murder was nevertheless irrelevant to achieving peace in Israel/Palestine and quoted a statement from Hamas leader Khaled Mashal who claimed that the Hamas charter is “a piece of history no longer relevant but cannot be changed for internal reasons.” Hashemi also seemingly dismissed the significance of this call to murder the Jews, stating fatuously, “If I had a penny every time this topic was mentioned in the context of Israel-Palestine, I would be an incredibly rich person.”
On another occasion in March of 2016, Hashemi responded to a journalist who brought up the Hamas charter’s call to murder the Jews by labeling it “pro-Israel talking points.”
Professor Hashemi has also repeatedly sought to justify the anti-Semitism of others, claiming in November 2005 that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s call that Israel should “be wiped off the map” was not due to “ancient ethnic hatreds or Muslim anti-Semitism, but primarily [due to] the trauma and enduring legacy of European colonialism and Israel’s perceived connection with this legacy.”
In November 2015, Hashemi tweeted: “Israeli soldiers kill another Palestinian in Hebron.” He linked an article about a Palestinian who had indeed been shot by Israeli soldiers after he attacked them with a knife during a riot (a fact conveniently not mentioned in his tweet).
Unsurprisingly, given his views on Hamas, Hashemi is a supporter of the genocidal Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel that aims to isolate and destroy the Jewish state. He has also promoted an academic boycott of Israeli universities on social media and has repeatedly demonized Israel on social media, referring to it as guilty of “occupation” and as solely responsible for the conflict in Gaza.
Professor Hashemi’s most controversial comments to date concern his bizarre and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories regarding the violent attack on author Salman Rushdie, who was viciously stabbed in August of 2022 while he prepared to give a public lecture at Chautauqua Institution in New York. While discussing the attack on a podcast, Hashemi suggested that the attack was most likely instigated by “someone online who claimed to be an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps supporter… [who] could have been the Mossad operative.”
Mossad is Israel’s national intelligence agency, the equivalent to the CIA in America. Hashemi further claimed that Mossad’s involvement is “much more likely” than other possible motives. Hashemi’s promotion of this completely baseless conspiracy theory is clearly rooted in Jew hatred.
While the University of Denver sought to distance itself from these bizarre claims, the Middle East Studies Association (MESA) scolded the university for “singling out a faculty member for expressing an opinion, however speculative, and by issuing a statement that suggests agreement with the vicious attacks launched against him…”
For his repeated whitewashing of Hamas and anti-Israel terrorism and his blatant promotion of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, Professor Hashemi belongs on the list of the worst Jew-hating professors.
UNC lecturer Kylie Broderick is only beginning her career in academia—she is a Ph.D. student in history at the Chapel Hill campus—but she is already notorious for her anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist views and her total lack of hesitation in injecting those views into her teaching.
For the past several years, Broderick has taught a course at Chapel Hill on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and the flagrant Jew hatred expressed by the lecturer has made national headlines.
In a series of public tweets from 2020, Broderick stated directly that she “find[s] it difficult to do role-playing games in class” because “the ‘2 sides’ of most subjects we cover are b/t colonizers/imperialists & oppressed native peoples” and “by ‘2 sides’ I mean there is only 1 legitimate side—the oppressed—versus imperialist propaganda.”
“I don’t ever want to encourage them to believe there is reason to take on good faith the oppressive ideologies of American and Western imperialism, Zionists, & autocrats,” she added.
Broderick has used every tool at her disposal to show her disdain for Israel and the Jewish people, even scheduling a quiz on Yom Kippur, the Jewish day of atonement.
The lecturer has mocked the very idea that she could restrain her biases in the classroom, stating in a November 2021 video that the UNC administration “spent a good deal of time examining my ability to be objective, whatever that means” but that she believes professors ought to “teach justice in the classroom” and that requests from UNC administrators that she meet with Jewish faculty were absurd.
Broderick views herself as an activist for the Palestinian cause and even signed a pledge promising to promote the genocidal BDS movement “in the classroom and on campus.”
Taking a page from the classic anti-Semitism playbook, Broderick also subscribes to bizarre conspiracy theories about Jews controlling the media, stating in an address that the “mobilization of the Hasbara network” and the “allegedly secular media” led to UNC officials asking her to respond to “baseless accusations.” She also alleged that UNC is “playing into a Zionist playbook,” and requires her to teach under “Israel’s rules.” She stated her belief that it is necessary to “dismantle the power that Hasbara and other pro-colonial causes have historically had over universities” so that the pro-Israel media can no longer “dominate the airwaves.”
The North Carolina Hillel chapter has also objected to Broderick’s abhorrent anti-Semitism, stating on the organization’s website that they are “very concerned” that “students who support and have a connection with Israel will be unwelcome or unsafe in [her] class” given her stated views that Israel should not exist and her refusal to “engage with people with other perspectives.”
For her single-minded determination to inject Jew hatred into her scholarship and teaching, Kylie Broderick is among the worst Jew-hating academics in America.
#10: Taurean Webb Associate Director, Center for the Study of Global Change Indiana University-Bloomington
Dr. Taurean Webb has claimed to be an advocate for a “just peace in Israel-Palestine,” but his slurs against Jews and Israel, advocacy for a Hamas front group, and deliberate minimization of the Holocaust reveal the depth of his Jew hatred.
Webb is the author of “Journey Toward Justice: A Guide for Congregational Study,” which purports to be a “comprehensive curriculum study plan” that was “specifically designed to aid predominantly Black congregations as they become more aware of the Palestinian crisis and begin to take action on behalf of Palestinian freedom and justice.” Instead, the document is a 68-page screed which uses biblical passages and precepts to frame the founding of Israel as “evil” and a “structural sin.”
Webb demonizes the Jewish state when he writes that “Israel currently occupies Palestine… Conflict arises because native Palestinians are having their lands occupied, their homes destroyed, an extremely high number of political prisoners incarcerated for years on end and are resisting in numerous ways.” He further notes that, “Within the US, however, it is common for national media to portray the Israel/Palestine conflict as ‘tiny’ Israel constantly under the threat of violence from Arab-Muslim enemies,” but undermines this accurate description, claiming it “is largely informed by the rampant domestic culture of Islamophobia and strong US political allegiances with Israel.” Webb also repeatedly refers to the Holocaust as the “European Jewish Holocaust” in order to minimize it and portray it as just one among many “holocausts” that have occurred throughout history.
While some anti-Semites target Jews indirectly through their persecution of the Jewish homeland of Israel, Webb has no compunction about naming Jews as directly promoting white supremacy and portraying them as conspiring to consolidate their power in America, a classic anti-Semitic trope. Webb commented in a YouTube interview: “It’s also a historical fact that American Jewish immigrants have always been a foundational building block for the white supremacist infrastructure in this country…We know that from the data.”
In an academic article titled: “Troubling Idols: Black-Palestinian Solidarity in U.S. Afro-Christian Spaces,” Webb claimed that “U.S. Jews constituted an important base for the U.S. white supremacist structure.” He also extended these conspiracy theories to Israel, claiming that the Jewish state [uses “the idea of ‘chosenness’ and the European Jewish Holocaust as a tactic of racial control.”
Webb repeatedly demonizes and delegitimizes Israel, classic tactics of anti-Semitism. He derides the idea that Israel is the historic ancestral land of the Jews, claiming instead that the United Nations placed the Jewish state there arbitrarily. He repeatedly slurs Israel as racist and existing on occupied land, writing, “There is nothing in the world like living under simultaneous racial caste and military occupation, a condition of historic Palestine since the mid-twentieth century.”
Dr. Webb has also repeatedly expressed his support for Palestinian militants who have committed violent terrorism against Israel. He wrote an article citing the death of Ahmed Erekat as an example of “Israeli military killings of Palestinians” and dedicated the article to the Erekat Family among others. Erekat was in fact killed by Israeli security forces, but Webb leaves out the inconvenient fact that his death occurred after he deliberately drove his car into Israeli soldiers at a checkpoint, an incident that was captured on video.
In a Facebook post made in 2018, and since deleted, Webb referred to the “Holy Land Foundation Five” as “great men” and stated “May our lives forever be changed for the better b/c of their heroism, generosity, & great sacrifice.” The “Holy Land Foundation Five” were the five individuals who were convicted in U.S. federal court for the crime of illegally funneling millions of dollars to the terrorist organization Hamas through their nonprofit group, the Holy Land Foundation.
Webb is also affiliated with the notorious Hamas front group American Muslims for Palestine and has repeatedly served as a featured speaker at the organization’s Annual Palestine Convention. AMP is headed by the notorious anti-Semite and jihad supporter, UC Berkeley professor Hatem Bazian, the co-founder of SJP. AMP’s board is dominated by former leaders of the Holy Land Foundation which was successfully prosecuted by the US government for funding Hamas.
For his blatant anti-Semitism and reprehensible praise for terrorists, Dr. Taurean Webb deserves his place among the worst Jew-hating professors.
Of course, one of the main reasons the nation is now “divided, resentful and angry” is because race-baiting, Islamist, class warrior Barack Hussein Obama was president for eight long years." MATTHEW VADUM
Who Killed Philip Haney?
Was it a “self-inflicted” gunshot, or vengeance from Islamic terrorists and their deep state allies?
February 25, 2020
Lloyd Billingsley
“On February 21, 2020 at approximately 1012 hours,” according to Amador County, California sheriff-coroner Martin A. Ryan, “deputies and detectives responded to the area of Highway 124 and Highway 16 in Plymouth to the report of a male subject on the ground with a gunshot wound. Upon their arrival, they located and identified 66-year-old Philip Haney, who was deceased and appeared to have suffered a single, self-inflicted gunshot wound. A firearm was located next to Haney and his vehicle. This investigation is active and ongoing. No further details will be released at this time.”
The establishment media ignored the story but as Michelle Mears noted in the California Globe, Haney’s relatives and friends did not believe he had killed himself. That left the question of motive, and high on the list of suspects would be Islamic terrorists.
Haney was a UC Riverside alum who worked as a field agricultural entomologist in the Middle East, where he began studying Arabic and the Quran. In a 2016 interview, Frank Gaffney asked Haney to comment on the behavior of “Islamic supremacists” and their doctrine of shariah.
“Some people have heard about ants, how they leave scent trails,” Haney said. “And other insects do it, too, so they can follow each other around and not get lost. Well, that’s essentially what shariah is. That is the universe that Muslims live inside, it forms the boundaries of the world that they live in. And their attempt to implement shariah on a global basis, from their perspective, is an attempt to establish order in this chaotic, violent world that we live in. That’s why they always say that Islam is a religion of peace. Because for them, shariah equals peace.”
The erudite Haney proved adept at tracking terrorist groups, but as he explained in The Hill on May 5, 2016, the Department of Homeland Security ordered him “to delete or modify several hundred records of individuals tied to designated Islamist terror groups like Hamas from the important federal database, the Treasury Enforcement Communications System (TECS).”
As Haney told Gaffney, “The mosque that [San Bernardino terrorist] Syed Farook attended was part of that Tablighi Jamaat network. The administration deleted sixty-seven records out of the system that I had worked on as a component of the Tablighi case.” So those still part of that terrorist network might have a motive to silence Haney, who provided a broader picture in See Something Say Nothing: A Homeland Security Officer Exposes the Government's Submission to Jihad.
Trump called out Islamic terrorism and according to Kerry Picket in the Washington Examiner, Haney was “recently in contact with top officials about returning to work for the DHS.” That would not please the DHS holdovers who went after Haney for telling the truth about Islamic terrorists.
After Haney’s testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2016, Sen. Ted Cruz asked Jeh Johnson, DHS Secretary from 2013-17, if Haney’s testimony was accurate. “I have no idea. I don’t know who Mr. Haney is,” Johnson replied. “I wouldn’t know him if he walked into the room.”
Haney said DHS investigated him nine times and revoked his security clearance. The Department of Justice charged that Haney “misused a government computer,” charges later dropped. Still, the news that Haney might be returning to DHS would not thrill POTUS 44 “wing man” Eric Holder, who has been telling reporters looking into DOJ malfeasance to “shut the hell up.”
John Durham is mounting a criminal investigation and as Sebastian Gorka explains, “the counter-coup has begun” and “the deep state beast is writing in discomfiture.” The coup clan failed to removed Trump from office and may now be convinced that Trump will be reelected. So it is entirely possible that the death of DHS whistleblower Phil Haney was the first shot fired in the deep state coverup.
“Phil had firsthand evidence that Obama was secretly advancing Islamic hegemony in the U.S.,” Haney’s friend Bill Becker, told the California Globe. “He sacrificed his career to expose it.”
His suspicious death deserves an investigation by the FBI, but at this writing, nothing has been announced. As FBI critics might note, after Bernie Sanders supporter James Hodgkinson shot down Steve Scalise, an FBI special agent told reporters it was too soon to say if the shooter had deliberately targeted Republican lawmakers.
Meanwhile, according to the California Globe, friends of Phil Haney said he was “preparing to go back on the road during the 2020 election season.” That raises issues far beyond Amador County, California.
If they manage to win the White House, any of the leading Democrats would surely shut down all investigations into any misconduct by the administration of POTUS 44. At this writing, the Democrats’ leading contender is Rip Van Winkle communist Bernie Sanders, and the election takes place on November 3. As President Trump says, we’ll have to see what happens.
OPERATION OBOMB:
DESTABILIZE AMERICA TO LAY GROUNDS FOR A MUSLIM-STYLE DICTATORSHIP
“Obama’s new home in Washington has been described as the “nerve center” of the anti-Trump opposition. Former attorney general Eric Holder has said that Obama is “ready to roll” and has aligned himself with the “resistance.” Former high-level Obama campaign staffers now work with a variety of groups organizing direct action against Trump’s initiatives. “Resistance School,” for example, features lectures by former campaign executive Sara El-Amine, author of the Obama Organizing.”
Barack Obama’s plot for a third term for life
A Muslim dictatorship like his crony paymasters, the 9-11 invading Saudis who have financed him for decades.
“Obama has the totalitarian impulse. After all, he went around saying he didn't have Constitutional authority to legalize the illegals, and then he tried anyway. The courts stopped him.”
What was Obama’s motive? Simple, he knew if he did that for Hillary, he’d own the next President of the United States, and could blackmail her with the truth till the end of time. It literally would have given him a 3rd and 4th term.

“Obama would declare himself president for life with Soros really running the show, as he did for the entire Obama presidency.”
“Hillary was always small potatoes, a placeholder as it were. Her health was always suspect. And do you think the plotters would have let a doofus like Tim Kaine take office in the event that Hillary became disabled?”
“Obama has the totalitarian impulse. After all, he went around saying he didn't have Constitutional authority to legalize the illegals, and then he tried anyway. The courts stopped him.”
“The bottom line 2 is this: Barack Obama is a Communist. This was all an Obama operation. Why is anyone surprised that a communist (Obama) tried to subvert an election. That is what Communists do. It is Barack Obama and his people like Brennan and Clapper behaving to type. That's what Maduro does in Venezuela. That's what the Castro brothers did. That's what every communist and socialist nation does. THEY FIX ELECTIONS!!”
“Hillary kept a secret server overflowing with national security info which, more than likely, was hacked. June 28, 2016, on a Phoenix tarmac, Bill Clinton met with Attorney General Loretta Lynch to seal a deal insuring Hillary would not be prosecuted.”
“Obama, of course, covered up his own role, depicting his presidency as eight years of heroic efforts to repair the damage caused by the 2008 financial crash.

Lawmakers Mum As Ticketmaster Doles Out Tickets For Farrakhan Hate Rally
The ticketing giant hated by Taylor Swift fans and everyone else who has ever tried to buy concert tickets is now under fire from Jewish activists for selling tickets to a Louis Farrakhan event in which the minister defended Adolf Hitler and predicted another Holocaust against Jews. But many of Ticketmaster's biggest critics on Capitol Hill don't seem to care.
Ticketmaster, which charges service fees on each ticket it sells, raked in money selling tickets to Farrakhan's annual Saviours' Day conference in Chicago last weekend. During his speech at the event, Farrakhan assailed the "stranglehold that Jews have on this government" and claimed "Jewish power is what has all of our people of knowledge and wisdom and talent afraid."
The event was met with crickets on Capitol Hill, with almost no one in Congress speaking out against Ticketmaster for making money off of the Farrakhan event. The reaction is a stark contrast to lawmakers' response when Ticketmaster bungled sales last year for Taylor Swift's much-anticipated concert tour. That fiasco was in the news cycle for weeks and led to a Department of Justice investigation as well as a Senate hearing. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle say Ticketmaster and its parent company, LiveNation, have a monopoly over the ticket industry, leading to price-gouging and a failure to crack down on automated scalping.
"Daily reminder that Ticketmaster is a monopoly, it’s merger with LiveNation should never have been approved, and they need to be reigned in [sic]," wrote Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) in a Twitter post in November. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R., Wash.), now the chairwoman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, sent a letter to Ticketmaster last year raising concerns about its practices, while Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.) and Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) called on the Department of Justice to investigate. None of their offices responded to a request for comment on Ticketmaster's Farrakhan sales.
Only Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.)—who also spoke out about the Taylor Swift debacle—weighed in on the Farrakhan controversy when contacted by the Washington Free Beacon.
"It is extremely concerning that Ticketmaster is choosing to use its platform to elevate and promote a well-known anti-Semite. The targeting of the Jewish people has gone on far too long and must stop," she said.
Entertainment industry leaders and Jewish groups had urged Ticketmaster to drop the Farrakhan event from its sales platform, but Ticketmaster did not waver. The Anti-Defamation League also sent a letter to Ticketmaster on Friday to "note that the Nation of Islam’s annual Saviors’ Day event regularly serves as a platform to amplify this hate and bigotry." The group said it was not calling on the company to halt ticket sales.
The event came as anti-Semitism is on the rise in the United States. Hate crimes against Jews have surged in majorcities, while celebrities like Kanye West and Kyrie Irving have promoted anti-Jewish conspiracy theories on social media. Farrakhan during his speech praised West as a "very great brother" and "genius."
"Ye broke into the fashion industry, that’s controlled by Jews," said Farrakhan. "Don’t be mad with them. They’re in every avenue that leads to power."
"Somebody has to take on the synagogue of Satan, and here we are," he said. "We cannot let them take the country."
Farrakhan criticized Jews who use the phrase "Never Again" when discussing the Holocaust.
"You can say that to men, but you can’t say that to God. Because the Bible says, behold, the day cometh that shall burn—as a what?—as an oven. And those who do wickedly, He will slay them."
"God is not unjust; when he kills you, you know you deserved it," he added.
Farrakhan also defended the Nazis by citing an argument he supposedly heard from a Jewish rabbi on TV.
"Usury is what has made [the Jews] strong. I heard a Jewish rabbi, maybe about six weeks ago, he came on television talking about Adolf Hitler," said Farrakhan. "And he said Hitler was right. He said Hitler went against usury and Hitler attacked pornography that the Jews had put on the Germans."
Farrakhan and his group, the Nation of Islam, promote numerous conspiracy theories about Jews, including that Jews control the government, the media, and global financial institutions.
Last week, a group of entertainment industry leaders sent a letter to Ticketmaster CEO Michael Rapino calling on the company to drop the sales of the Farrakhan event and citing the preacher’s long history of anti-Semitism.
White Lies: Fake Muslim Activist Who Rubbed Shoulders With 'Squad' Members Resigns in Disgrace
A white diversity consultant who cozied up to prominent Democrats while pretending to be an Arab Muslim is out of a job after it was revealed that she was "white as the driven snow."
Raquel Evita Saraswati resigned from her position as chief equity, inclusion, and culture officer at the American Friends Service Committee on Monday after her mother revealed in February that she was born Rachel Elizabeth Seidel. The committee, a Quaker group that works for a "just, peaceful, and sustainable world free of violence, inequality, and oppression," confirmed that Seidel had made the "difficult" and "deeply personal" decision to resign from the group in a statement.
"Raquel Saraswati, who is facing public allegations that she misrepresented her background and past associations, has informed us of her intention to separate from the organization," AFSC spokesman Layne Mullett toldUSA Today.
The transracial grifter, who since 2004 claimed to be of Latin, South Asian, and Arab descent, is a prominent activist in the Philadelphia area and has rubbed shoulders with Democratic Reps. Ilhan Omar (Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.), and attended an event at the Obama White House in July 2016, according to photos from her deleted Flickr album.
Before she tendered her resignation, Seidel faced a revolt from her former colleagues at the committee, who penned an anonymous open letter on Feb. 10 accusing her of lying about her racial heritage and serving as a mole for right-wing interests. The letter prompted the human resources professional who hired Seidel in 2021 to say he felt "conned" and "deceived" for believing she was a queer woman of color who happened to be a Muslim.
Seidel’s mother, Carol Perone, confirmed her daughter is white in an interview with the Intercept in February.
"I call her Rachel. I don’t know why she’s doing what she’s doing," Perone said. "I’m as white as the driven snow and so is she. … I’m German and British, and her father was Calabrese Italian. She’s chosen to live a lie, and I find that very, very sad."
Seidel said she was not fired from the committee and maintained that she was honest with the group during her hiring process in a statement to Fox News.
"I was … honest and completely transparent in securing my role, which I have found extremely fulfilling," Seidel said. "Regarding details of my personal life: I am currently taking the time I need both with loved ones as well as with professional counsel to ensure my concerns and interests are addressed comprehensively while maintaining discretion and care for the personal lives of others."
Seidel, who promoted herself as a "vegan, Muslim, queer feminist," has drawn comparisons to Rachel Dolezal, a former NAACP chapter president who resigned in disgrace after it was revealed that she was white and had been pretending to be African American. In Sept. 2022, TMZ reported that Dolezal had started an OnlyFans page.
A little known, though highly controversial, Islamic teaching is back in the news. According to a Feb. 21, 2023 report, Diyanet, Turkey’s highest religious (and therefore Islamic) institution:
...opened a special section on its fatwa website about earthquakes and answered the question of “Can children of earthquake victims be adopted?” The fatwa stated that it is not right for foster families to treat adopted children like their own children and that “there is no barrier to marriage between the adopter and the adopted child.”
The fatwa mounted criticism on social media and many public figures reacted against the Diyanet’s response.
Journalist Fatih Altaylı also reacted to the Diyanet's fatwa on his Twitter account, saying: “We understand that you are really perverts, but what are you doing in an institution like the Diyanet? Perverts. Go into the porn industry. Don't pollute the institution established by (founder of modern Turkish Republic) Atatürk to give people proper religious knowledge with your perverted imagination.”
Diyanet responded by opening a lawsuit against the journalist for “insulting our presidency and its employees with derogatory expressions.”
The controversy amounts to this: Islam bans adoption; and Islam’s clerics, as they often do, are trying to find a loophole. Rather than adopt, a man may “marry,” concluded Diyanet, a destitute child of his choosing, and that is halal -- a win-win for all involved, and in keeping with Islam’s ban on adoption.
This ban is more prevalent, and negatively impacts more lives, than might be assumed. In fact, just one week after the above report from Turkey appeared, on Feb. 27, 2023, Coptic Solidarity, which focuses on the plight of Christian minorities throughout the Middle East, especially Egypt’s indigenous Copts, launched an “online grassroots campaign” dedicated to arguably the most infamous adoption-related case in modern times in the Muslim world.
Nearly five years ago, a Coptic priest heard cries emanating from inside his empty church. He discovered a newborn baby boy, apparently abandoned by a mother who bore him out of wedlock. The priest entrusted the babe to a childless couple from his congregation. Considering that they had for nearly 30 years been praying for a child, they joyously embraced the boy as their own and baptized and named him Shenouda, a popular Coptic name.
For the next four years everything went well. Shenouda became the pride and joy of his adoptive parents’ lives. Seeing him as a “gift from God,” they spared no care or expense on his upbringing.
Then the Egyptian state learned about this otherwise happy development and seized the four-year-old child from his loving parents’ arms and sent him to an orphanage.
As with Turkey’s Diyanet, although adoption is illegal in Egypt, there are state-approved ways -- loopholes -- for families to take custody of orphan children. In this case, however, the primary argument used by the state against Shenouda’s adoptive parents’ legal attempts to reclaim the boy revolves around religion. Because Islam teaches that every human is born as a sort of prototypical Muslim (until their parents conform them to their own religion), and because the religious identity of Shenouda’s biological parents is unknown, he must, therefore, be considered Muslim; and entrusting Muslim children to non-Muslim parents is strictly forbidden.
Since being transferred to an overcrowded and underfed orphanage, the child was “returned” to -- that is, forced into -- Islam. He was issued a birth certificate marked “Muslim” under religion and stripped of his formerly Christian name and given an acceptable Muslim one, Yusuf.
Meanwhile, logic suggests that Shenouda was born to a Christian mother -- or at least to a mother who thought Christians would best know how to raise her unwanted child. Otherwise, why abandon the babe in a church?
Such are the unknown casualties of Islamic law: whether destitute children from earthquake-ravaged regions must be turned into “spouses” before they are taken care of in Turkey, or whether destitute orphans must be stripped away from loving adoptive parents because they are “infidel” Christians, here is yet another example of human suffering in the name of sharia.

Normally, it would be a surprise to see a Sheriff show up to a radical Muslim event, but in Broward County, for years, it has been the norm. Sheriff Scott Israel did it, while accompanied by his Deputy liaison and then-representative for CAIR, Nezar Hamze, and Israel’s replacement, Gregory Tony, does it with the help of his second-in-command, Executive Officer Munib Ahmed. This month, though, it was Sheriff Tonythat accompanied Ahmed, as Ahmed received an award from the Darul Uloom Institute (DUI), a past haven for high-profile al-Qaeda terrorists run by an anti-gay imam. This is the shocking state of affairs at the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO).
On February 11th, DUI held its 40th Anniversary Annual Award Ceremony and Fundraising Dinner. One of this year’s award recipients was BSO Colonel Munib Ahmed. Ahmed, who previously (and ironically) served as a supervisor in a counter-terrorism unit, enjoys the lofty position of Executive Officer to the Sheriff. Sharing the stage with him were DUI’s founder and imam Shafayat Mohamed, who was donning a lapel pin resembling a Sheriff’s badge (the same pin that the Sheriff wears on his tie), and Sheriff Tony, who received a gift from the mosque, himself. All three were arm-in-arm with big smiles for the camera.
Ahmed spoke glowingly about Shafayat Mohamed and the organization he represents. Ahmed told the crowd that he remembers watching Mohamed’s sermons, “as a young man growing up.” He stated about Mohamed, “To see him today perform in front of us, after 40 years, is amazing. He’s done amazing work not only for this community, but for all of us. We are a better people, because of him, because he gave voice to the people that could not speak. He brought light to situations and current situations that we would never have found out about, so I appreciate you sir, for all your hard work and dedication to this community, and I wish you all the best.”
Part of Mohamed’s work was as an Islamic teacher. One of his students at DUI was soon-to-be convicted terrorist “Dirty Bomber” Jose Padilla. Padilla, a convert to Islam, had met with senior al-Qaeda operatives to discuss his involvement in terrorist operations, including a plot to set off a radiological bomb inside the US.
Another terrorist related to DUI was future al-Qaeda Commander Adnan el-Shukrijumah, who was a prayer leader at DUI. Prior to him being killed in 2014 by the Pakistan Army, el-Shukrijumah had ordered the bombing of the New York subway system. DUI Arabic teacher Imran Mandhai, along with mosque goers Hakki Aksoy and Shueyb Mossa Jokhan, hatched a plot at DUI to blow up different South Florida structures, including electrical power stations, Jewish businesses, and a National Guard armory. Shafayat Mohamed has also admitted that one of the 9/11 hijackers was rumored to have prayed at DUI.
Mohamed has used his pulpit to target homosexuals with the worst of bigotry. In February 2005, DUI published an article written by Mohamed, titled ‘Tsunami: Wrath of God,’ in which he claimed gay sex caused the 2004 Indonesian tsunami. In the piece, he quotes the Quran, saying “most” Jews and Christians “are perverted transgressors.” During an August 2015 DUI sermon, Mohamed lamented the existence of gay Muslim communities. His deeds caused him to be thrown off several Broward County boards. He complained he “got sacked,” because “a lot of gay people” spoke out against him. He said, “I had a choice to sit in paradise or go to hell.”
In his youth, Mohamed was a proud student of now-deceased bigot Ahmed Deedat, author of the anti-Christian screed, Crucifixion or Cruci-Fiction? who, according to The New York Times, was “a vocal anti-Semite and ardent backer of Osama bin Laden,” and who would callously refer to gays as “Sodomites.” On the DUI website, one can find a photograph of Mohamed shaking hands with Deedat in Deedat’s facility, what was at the time known as the Bin Laden Centre. Following Deedat’s death, Mohamed traveled to Deedat’s home, in Durban, South Africa, to meet with Deedat’s son and zealous Adolf Hitler fan, Yusuf Deedat, and to pray by his grave.
This was not the first time Sheriff Tony and his BSO came in contact with a radical mosque. This past April, Sheriff Tony and a number of BSO officers showed up to the Islamic Center of South Florida (ICOSF) for a Ramadan ‘Break the Fast.’ In June, it looked as if the entire BSO showed up to ICOSF’s 2022 Summer Camp. In October, the ICOSF Sisterhood sponsored a BSO event at the mosque, where the female BSO representatives donned hijabs.
ICOSF is owned by the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT), a group named by the US a co-conspirator to Hamas financing. ICOSF’s Imam Hasan Sabri has cursed America as an “enemy” and threatened Muslims who accept her help. ICOSF regularly brings controversial imams Monzer Taleb and Fadi Kablawi to the mosque to give khutbahs (sermons). Taleb is a self-professed member of Hamas, who posted on Facebook that Jews in Israel “should be relocated to Germany.” Kablawi, who the FBI says is a member of ISIS, has called Jews “the lowest of the lowest”; blamed women for rape; and said gays should thank him for their continued existence.
This was, as well, not the first time Sheriff Tony came in contact with DUI’s Shafayat Mohamed. A photo from Sheriff Tony’s September 2022 ‘Unity in Faith Prayer Breakfast and 9/11 Memorial,’ has the Sheriff bowing has head in prayer with Mohamed. Furthermore, Mohamed recently interviewed Tony for his Al-Hikmat TV program. During the interview, Mohamed mentioned that, two weeks prior to the taping of the show, the BSO called him to request 250 copies of the Quran to be presented to BSO prisoners.
The Sheriff told Mohamed, who said he was astonished that the BSO contacted him for Qurans, “We’ve totally changed our cultural awareness here. Broward County is one of the most diverse counties in every facet… We have to be able to engage with the community to make sure we’re not leaving any facet out. Having so much control and being in contact with so many parts of our community, it’s important that we don’t ostracize anyone. I was surprised when I’ve had dialogue with members of our Muslim community how disengaged they were from this organization, not having any type of inclusion, and that’s a problem…”
It is a much bigger problem that Sheriff Tony and the BSO are engaging with radical Muslims. In doing so, they have abandoned their motto ‘to protect and serve,’ and, instead, they are embracing extremism and endangering the community.

Anti-Semitism is First and Utmost a Danger to America and its Values
At a summit held by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in November, FBI Director Christopher Wray spoke about “the tragic reality that the Jewish community uniquely ends up on the receiving end of hate-fueled attacks from all sides.” He referenced the white supremacist attacks in recent years in Poway and Pittsburgh, and the 2022 attack at the synagogue in Colleyville, Texas, motivated by “violent Jihad”. But it’s not just white supremacists and radical Muslims.
There are myriad of groups espousing Jews-hatred – the far-right, the far-left, radical Muslims, and black supremacists, such as Louis Farrakhan, to name a few. The reality is that these groups and their individual members and supporters pose a danger not only to the Jewish community, but to all Americans. Antisemites target Jews first, as they see the Jewish people as easy prey, but what they are really after is changing America beyond recognition, according to their distorted and extreme ideologies.
The tragic reality is that America as a whole is on the receiving end of hate-fueled attacks from all the radical elements of society. The fabric of America is disintegrating in front of our eyes at the hands of the sworn enemies of the American and the Jewish people.
The Mounting Threat for Jewish Americans
In recent years, the threat against American Jews, and consequently the American people, has been mounting. Per FBI Director Wray, “A full 63% of religious hate crimes are motivated by antisemitism—targeting a group that makes up just 2.4% of our population.”
Interestingly, this hate is one of the sole common threads between far-right, far-left, radical Muslim, and black supremacist ideologies. These groups are united by familiar antisemitic tropes of a nefarious and powerful Jewish or “Zionist” cabal that allegedly seeks to dominate and subjugate individuals, societies, and nations through behind-the-scenes scheming.
More and more, these hate groups, who at their core are enemies to each other, are coalescing and cooperating in their hatred of the Jewish people and the Jewish State.
How did we arrive to this point, and is Antisemism just a Jewish problem?
The Threat from the Far Right
Jew hatred from the far-right has grown in recent years with the popularization of the Great Replacement conspiracy theory, in which Jews are commonly held responsible for a plot to subjugate if not eliminate the white race through promotion of non-white mass immigration, feminism, transgenderism, and other supposedly devious schemes.
Hence, at the notorious white supremacist “Unite the Right” rally held in Charlottesville, Virginia in August 2017, marchers feverishly chanted, “Jews will not replace us”.
Within the year, this unfolded into real world violence against Jews. In March 2018, 46-year-old white supremacist Robert Gregory Bowers killed 11 Jews at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania during Shabbat services, the deadliest attack on Jews in America’s history. Blaming the Jews for mass migration to the U.S., Bowers posted on social media before the attack, “I can’t sit by and watch my people get slaughtered. Screw your optics, I’m going in.”
A little over a year later in April 2019, 19-year-old John Timothy Earnest burst into the Chabad of Poway synagogue outside San Diego, killing one congregant in a burst of gunfire, again during Sabbath services. In his manifesto, Earnest wrote, “Every Jew is responsible for the meticulously planned genocide of the European race. They act as a unit, and every Jew plays his part to enslave the other races around him—whether consciously or subconsciously.”
As I’ve warned, the Jews were just the first, most attractive target. Soon these attacks spread to the rest of America. In August 2019, a far-right shooter targeted Latinos in an El Paso, Texas Walmart, killing 23. In May 2022, a far-right shooter targeted black Americans at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, killing 10. Both cited the “Great Replacement” theory as motivations for their attacks.
The Threat from Black Nationalists
Jew hatred doesn’t only come from white nationalists, but also from black nationalists, who since the 1960’s have been advocating for a major national influence through the Nation of Islam (NOI) and their co-hordes through race pride for African Americans and black separatism.
Hatred of Jews has long been brewing in the black community. Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the antisemitic Nation of Islam (NOI), has been a prominent voice in the community for decades.
Farrakhan spews hateful venom at Jews, alleging that the Jewish people were responsible for the slave trade and that they conspire to control the government, the media and Hollywood, as well as various black individuals and organizations. He frequently denies the legitimacy of Judaism – or the Jewish claim to the Land of Israel – arguing that “Judaism is nothing more than a ‘deceptive lie’ and a ‘theological error’ promoted by Jews to further their ‘control’ over America’s government and economy.”
The severity of this problem burst onto the national scene in December 2019, with a spate of attacks against the Jewish community in the New York metropolitan area. On December 10, two heavily armed individuals connected to the Black Hebrew Israelite (BHI) movement murdered three people at a kosher supermarket in Jersey City, New Jersey. Weeks later, on December 28, a BHI-inspired individual attacked a Hanukkah gathering in Monsey, New York with a large knife, killing 72-year-old Rabbi Josef Neumann.
Once again, this hate then reared its head from Jews to the rest of society. In November 2021, Darrell Brooks, a black nationalist drove his SUV into a crowd of Christmas parade attendees in Waukesha, Wisconsin, killing six people and wounding dozens. In April 2022, another black nationalist Frank Robert James perpetrated a mass shooting on the New York City subway during rush hour, injuring 29. James’s online incitement and bigotry included antisemitic diatribes.
Farrakhan’s views are echoed in the recent antisemitic outbursts of famed rapper Kanye West, who now goes by “Ye”. Kanye is now claiming, “Somehow our country has been taken over by, you know, maybe about 300 Zionists.” Farrakhan and Kanye have actually been publicly connected for years, with West referring to him as “sensei” in one of his songs.
When Kanye talks about blacks being the real Jews, he mimics the beliefs of the Black Hebrew Israelites (BHI). While white supremacists say “Jews will not replace us”, BHI followers say they are us. Just this past month, a group of BHI marchers in Brooklyn ominously chanted, “we are the real Jews”.
And now Kanye has united with the far right, bringing white supremacist Nick Fuentes along with him when dining with former President Donald Trump in Mar-a-Lago on November 22.
The “Red-Green” Alliance: The Threat from the Radical Left & Radical Muslims
Not to be outdone, the radical left has been ramping up its Jew hatred for decades, disguising it using hatred for the homeland of the Jewish people, the State of Israel. This radical group new kind of new antisemitism initially gained intellectual currency in universities and other leftist intellectual circles. Today, modern anti-Semitism can be found among members of the radical Left, who are inherently anti-American and see Israel as a symbol of American and Western imperialism, aggressive military rule and the violation of human rights.
Similarly, radical Muslims have long sought Israel’s destruction and promulgated conspiracies of Jewish Zionist global domination. Despite the fact that radical Muslims and leftists are naturally completely misaligned in their belief systems and ideologies, they have joined forces and as the Reut Group warns, “The strategic partnership between the radical left and political Islam, known as the red-green or Islamo-Left alliance, emerged in Europe, but it has migrated to the US in recent years.” Despite their hatred and intolerance to each other they have a shared agenda that is anti-Western, anti-American, and anti-Zionist.
The New Antisemites Report by StopAntisemitism.org and Zachor Legal Institute in which anti-Zionism or hatred of Israel is utilized as an acceptable stand-in for the classical hatred of Jews documents how this contemporary hate, as disseminated by the Islamo-Left so-called “Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions” (BDS) Movement, is negatively influencing large segments of the United States’ population and creating a dangerous environment that normalizes vilification of Jews, as well as inciting violence against Jews, something that history has shown to have deadly consequences.
The radical left have also been promoting Critical Race Theory (CRT) and the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs on universities and high schools contributing to antisemitism in the American education system. However, antisemitism is not just a Jewish problem – it is an American problem and while CRT and DEI policies may disproportionately target and harm Jewish students, their agenda ultimately seeks to undermine and replace fundamental American values and replace it with its own radical vision.
The trend of intersectionality has accelerated the Islamo-Left collaboration.
The strange alliance between the radical Left and radical Muslims – two groups that, despite their seemingly incompatible worldviews, happily collaborate against Israel and the Jews, can be explained by the theory of intersectionality adopted by many in the far Left. According to this theory, groups that consider themselves neglected and discriminated against must come together to fight against each of those groups’ supposed enemies.
This new partnership was on full display during the last major conflict between Israel and the Palestinians in May 2021, when terror groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad launched more than 4,000 rockets and mortars at Israeli civilians. Back in America, we witnessed stunning and unprecedented scenes in New York, Los Angeles, and other major progressive urban centers of Jews being assaulted by mobs of anti-Israel activists. This surge of anti-Jewish hate also included harassment, vandalism and online abuse.
Few could have imagined that such a wave of violence against Jews in major American cities would be possible within living memory of the Holocaust. Jews in America often fear walking the streets wearing Jewish symbols, congregating outside Jewish community buildings, or even speaking Hebrew or Yiddish in public. This is a growing threat to American society. Street violence and hate speech is replacing the American principles of reasoned discourse and debate.
Through intersectionality, the Red-Green alliance seeks to replace the universal virtues of tolerance, pluralism, freedom of speech, and rule of law with racialized “anti-racism”, hierarchical critical race theory, discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, intolerant “cancel culture”, and the censorship of “de-platforming”.
Together, those who foremost target Jews – white and black nationalists as well as the Red-Green alliance of the left and Islamists – are a fundamental threat to America and its values. These radical groups are spearheading efforts to erode the core principles that make our country exceptional, replacing America’s commitment to individual rights and equality, meritocracy, rule of law, tolerance, pluralism, due process, freedom of speech, and free-market capitalism with a racialized and violent world steeped in conspiracy theories and political polarization.
The Jewish people have long been portrayed as the sacrificial “canary in the coal mine”, a powerless creature that will warn others of danger through its demise. But here we are, not a canary, but as an eagle, warning Americans of the looming threats on the horizon. Heed our warnings.

They act as a unit, and every Jew plays his part to enslave the other races around him—whether consciously or subconsciously.”
As I’ve warned, the Jews were just the first, most attractive target. Soon these attacks spread to the rest of America. In August 2019, a far-right shooter targeted Latinos in an El Paso, Texas Walmart, killing 23. In May 2022, a far-right shooter targeted black Americans at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, killing 10. Both cited the “Great Replacement” theory as motivations for their attacks.
The Threat from Black Nationalists
Jew hatred doesn’t only come from white nationalists, but also from black nationalists, who since the 1960’s have been advocating for a major national influence through the Nation of Islam (NOI) and their co-hordes through race pride for African Americans and black separatism.
Hatred of Jews has long been brewing in the black community. Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the antisemitic Nation of Islam (NOI), has been a prominent voice in the community for decades.
Farrakhan spews hateful venom at Jews, alleging that the Jewish people were responsible for the slave trade and that they conspire to control the government, the media and Hollywood, as well as various black individuals and organizations. He frequently denies the legitimacy of Judaism – or the Jewish claim to the Land of Israel – arguing that “Judaism is nothing more than a ‘deceptive lie’ and a ‘theological error’ promoted by Jews to further their ‘control’ over America’s government and economy.”
The severity of this problem burst onto the national scene in December 2019, with a spate of attacks against the Jewish community in the New York metropolitan area. On December 10, two heavily armed individuals connected to the Black Hebrew Israelite (BHI) movement murdered three people at a kosher supermarket in Jersey City, New Jersey. Weeks later, on December 28, a BHI-inspired individual attacked a Hanukkah gathering in Monsey, New York with a large knife, killing 72-year-old Rabbi Josef Neumann.
Once again, this hate then reared its head from Jews to the rest of society. In November 2021, Darrell Brooks, a black nationalist drove his SUV into a crowd of Christmas parade attendees in Waukesha, Wisconsin,killing six people and wounding dozens. In April 2022, another black nationalist Frank Robert James perpetrated a mass shooting on the New York City subway during rush hour, injuring 29. James’s online incitement and bigotry included antisemitic diatribes.
Farrakhan’s views are echoed in the recent antisemitic outbursts of famed rapper Kanye West, who now goes by “Ye”. Kanye is now claiming, “Somehow our country has been taken over by, you know, maybe about 300 Zionists.” Farrakhan and Kanye have actually been publicly connected for years, with West referring to him as “sensei” in one of his songs.
When Kanye talks about blacks being the real Jews, he mimics the beliefs of the Black Hebrew Israelites (BHI). While white supremacists say “Jews will not replace us”, BHI followers say they are us. Just this past month, a group of BHI marchers in Brooklyn ominously chanted, “we are the real Jews”.
And now Kanye has united with the far right, bringing white supremacist Nick Fuentes along with him when dining with former President Donald Trump in Mar-a-Lago on November 22.
The “Red-Green” Alliance: The Threat from the Radical Left & Radical Muslims
Not to be outdone, the radical left has been ramping up its Jew hatred for decades, disguising it using hatred for the homeland of the Jewish people, the State of Israel. This radical group new kind of new antisemitism initially gained intellectual currency in universities and other leftist intellectual circles. Today, modern anti-Semitism can be found among members of the radical Left, who are inherently anti-American and see Israel as a symbol of American and Western imperialism, aggressive military rule and the violation of human rights.
Similarly, radical Muslims have long sought Israel’s destruction and promulgated conspiracies of Jewish Zionist global domination. Despite the fact that radical Muslims and leftists are naturally completely misaligned in their belief systems and ideologies, they have joined forces and as the Reut Group warns, “The strategic partnership between the radical left and political Islam, known as the red-green or Islamo-Left alliance, emerged in Europe, but it has migrated to the US in recent years.” Despite their hatred and intolerance to each other they have a shared agenda that is anti-Western, anti-American, and anti-Zionist.
The New Antisemites Report by StopAntisemitism.organd Zachor Legal Institutein which anti-Zionism or hatred of Israel is utilized as an acceptable stand-in for the classical hatred of Jews documents how this contemporary hate, as disseminated by the Islamo-Left so-called “Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions” (BDS) Movement, is negatively influencing large segments of the United States’ population and creating a dangerous environment that normalizes vilification of Jews, as well as inciting violence against Jews, something that history has shown to have deadly consequences.
The radical left have also been promoting Critical Race Theory (CRT) and the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs on universities and high schools contributing to antisemitism in the American education system. However, antisemitism is not just a Jewish problem – it is an American problem and while CRT and DEI policies may disproportionately target and harm Jewish students, their agenda ultimately seeks to undermine and replace fundamental American values and replace it with its own radical vision.
The trend of intersectionality has accelerated the Islamo-Left collaboration.
The strange alliance between the radical Left and radical Muslims – two groups that, despite their seemingly incompatible worldviews, happily collaborate against Israel and the Jews, can be explained by the theory of intersectionality adopted by many in the far Left. According to this theory, groups that consider themselves neglected and discriminated against must come together to fight against each of those groups’ supposed enemies.
This new partnership was on full display during the last major conflict between Israel and the Palestinians in May 2021, when terror groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad launched more than 4,000 rockets and mortars at Israeli civilians. Back in America, we witnessed stunning and unprecedented scenes in New York, Los Angeles, and other major progressive urban centers of Jews being assaulted by mobs of anti-Israel activists. This surge of anti-Jewish hate also includedharassment, vandalism and online abuse.
Few could have imagined that such a wave of violence against Jews in major American cities would be possible within living memory of the Holocaust. Jews in America often fear walking the streets wearing Jewish symbols, congregating outside Jewish community buildings, or even speaking Hebrew or Yiddish in public. This is a growing threat to American society. Street violence and hate speech is replacing the American principles of reasoned discourse and debate.
Through intersectionality, the Red-Green alliance seeks to replace the universal virtues of tolerance, pluralism, freedom of speech, and rule of law with racialized “anti-racism”, hierarchical critical race theory, discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, intolerant “cancel culture”, and the censorship of “de-platforming”.
Together, those who foremost target Jews – white and black nationalists as well as the Red-Green alliance of the left and Islamists – are a fundamental threat to America and its values. These radical groups are spearheading efforts to erode the core principles that make our country exceptional, replacing America’s commitment to individual rights and equality, meritocracy, rule of law, tolerance, pluralism, due process, freedom of speech, and free-market capitalism with a racialized and violent world steeped in conspiracy theories and political polarization.
The Jewish people have long been portrayed as the sacrificial “canary in the coal mine”, a powerless creature that will warn others of danger through its demise. But here we are, not a canary, but as an eagle, warning Americans of the looming threats on the horizon. Heed our warnings.
At a summit held by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in November, FBI Director Christopher Wray spoke about “the tragic reality that the Jewish community uniquely ends up on the receiving end of hate-fueled attacks from all sides.” He referenced the white supremacist attacks in recent years in Poway and Pittsburgh, and the 2022 attack at the synagogue in Colleyville, Texas, motivated by “violent Jihad”. But it’s not just white supremacists and radical Muslims.
There are myriad of groups espousing Jews-hatred – the far-right, the far-left, radical Muslims, and black supremacists, such as Louis Farrakhan, to name a few. The reality is that these groups and their individual members and supporters pose a danger not only to the Jewish community, but to all Americans. Antisemites target Jews first, as they see the Jewish people as easy prey, but what they are really after is changing America beyond recognition, according to their distorted and extreme ideologies.
The tragic reality is that America as a whole is on the receiving end of hate-fueled attacks from all the radical elements of society. The fabric of America is disintegrating in front of our eyes at the hands of the sworn enemies of the American and the Jewish people.
The Mounting Threat for Jewish Americans
In recent years, the threat against American Jews, and consequently the American people, has been mounting. Per FBI Director Wray, “A full 63% of religious hate crimes are motivated by antisemitism—targeting a group that makes up just 2.4% of our population.”
Interestingly, this hate is one of the sole common threads between far-right, far-left, radical Muslim, and black supremacist ideologies. These groups are united by familiar antisemitic tropes of a nefarious and powerful Jewish or “Zionist” cabal that allegedly seeks to dominate and subjugate individuals, societies, and nations through behind-the-scenes scheming.
More and more, these hate groups, who at their core are enemies to each other, are coalescing and cooperating in their hatred of the Jewish people and the Jewish State.
How did we arrive to this point, and is Antisemism just a Jewish problem?
The Threat from the Far Right
Jew hatred from the far-right has grown in recent years with the popularization of the Great Replacement conspiracy theory, in which Jews are commonly held responsible for a plot to subjugate if not eliminate the white race through promotion of non-white mass immigration, feminism, transgenderism, and other supposedly devious schemes.
Hence, at the notorious white supremacist “Unite the Right” rally held in Charlottesville, Virginia in August 2017, marchers feverishly chanted, “Jews will not replace us”.
Within the year, this unfolded into real world violence against Jews. In March 2018, 46-year-old white supremacist Robert Gregory Bowers killed 11 Jews at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania during Shabbat services, the deadliest attack on Jews in America’s history. Blaming the Jews for mass migration to the U.S., Bowers posted on social media before the attack, “I can’t sit by and watch my people get slaughtered. Screw your optics, I’m going in.”
A little over a year later in April 2019, 19-year-old John Timothy Earnest burst into the Chabad of Poway synagogue outside San Diego, killing one congregant in a burst of gunfire, again during Sabbath services. In his manifesto, Earnest wrote, “Every Jew is responsible for the meticulously planned genocide of the European race. They act as a unit, and every Jew plays his part to enslave the other races around him—whether consciously or subconsciously.”
As I’ve warned, the Jews were just the first, most attractive target. Soon these attacks spread to the rest of America.

In May 2022, a far-right shooter targeted black Americans at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, killing 10. Both cited the “Great Replacement” theory as motivations for their attacks.

So, we have local black gang associates posting terror threats on social media -- threats of murder, by burning, directed at the women and children family members of white police employees -- immediately before the murder, by burning, of the white teenage daughter of a local police department employee. Plus, the killing took place only minutes after the victim was seen on video at the same location as the husband or boyfriend of the person who posted the threats, as he was filling a handheld can with gasoline.

BLACK LOOTING IN S.F.
EXCLUSIVE: Two San Francisco Prosecutors Quit, Join Effort to Recall City's DA'
The ongoing shoplifting surge has forced Walgreens to close five more San Francisco stores as local law enforcement continues to do next to nothing to curtail the problem.
In a statement to SF Gate, Walgreens spokesman Phil Caruso confirmed “organized retail crime” has strangled San Francisco stores.
“Organized retail crime continues to be a challenge facing retailers across San Francisco, and we are not immune to that,” Caruso said. “Retail theft across our San Francisco stores has continued to increase in the past few months to five times our chain average.”
“During this time to help combat this issue, we increased our investments in security measures in stores across the city to 46 times our chain average in an effort to provide a safe environment,” he added.
Asha Safai, San Francisco Board of Supervisor for District 11 admitted to feeling “devastated” over the closure a Walgreens store that has “been a staple for seniors, families and children for decades.”
“I am completely devastated by this news – this Walgreens is less than a mile from seven schools and has been a staple for seniors, families and children for decades. This closure will significantly impact this community,” he tweeted.
Safai told SFGate that the shoplifting had crippled the store’s bottom-line and endangered the staff and customers to an unhealthy degree.
“This is a sad day for San Francisco,” Safai said. “We can’t continue to let these anchor institutions close that so many people rely on.”
Shoplifting has skyrocketed in San Francisco recently, likely a result of Proposition 47, which dictates stealing would not be a felony in California if the item stolen did not exceed $950.
The damage has been felt across a range of business outlets.
In May of this year, The San Francisco News described the situation as being “out of control,” noting that 17 Walgreens have had to close in the past five years due to rampant shoplifting in the city.
17 Walgreen locations in San Francisco have closed their doors within the last five years according to a report from the SF Chronicle. Ten of these closures transpired from 2019 to this year with the last Walgreens store to close its door as of this writing, back on March 17. The cause of the closures is due to rampant shoplifting and looting that has transpired at Walgreen locations in the city believed to be perpetuated by an organized crime ring.
On Thursday, May 13 a hearing was held by the Board of Supervisors with retailers, the SFPD, the district attorney’s office, and probation departments. Brendan Dugan, director of organized retail crime and corporate investigations, believes that San Francisco is at the center of organized retail crime. He brought up a state bust in the Bay Area from last year in which $8 million in stolen merchandise was confiscated from five suspects. The merchandise came from CVS, Target and Walgreens stores from all across San Francisco.
The lack of enforcement made shoplifters so nonchalant and casual they would often steal in broad daylight while awestruck customers documented the crime on their iPhones, allowing for some viral internet moments.
A prominent Safeway supermarket in the Castro district of San Francisco is limiting its hours due to rampant shoplifting, the latest example of a retail store closing or limiting its operations in the left-liberal city due to out-of-control petty crime.
Shoppers at the Safeway in San Francisco’s Castro neighborhood will see a noticeable change to the store: It now closes at 9 p.m. due to what one supervisor described as “out of control” shoplifting.
Once open 24 hours a day, the Safeway store on Market and Church streets now has the earliest closing hours of all the Pleasanton-based supermarket chain’s San Francisco storefronts, most of which stay open until midnight.
…
[San Francisco Supervisor Rafael] Mandelman said theft at the Safeway at 2020 Market Street has been “out of control” and recently met with Safeway representatives “to better understand the issues at this store.” He said he also planned to meet with the San Francisco Police Department and the office of San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin “to see what is currently being done to deter theft at Safeway, and to figure out a plan to do better.”
Earlier this year, Walgreens closed 17 stores in the city due to shoplifting, which skyrocketed after California voters passed Proposition 47, a ballot initiative aimed at criminal justice reform, which reclassified thefts up to $950 as misdemeanors. As a result, such thefts are rarely prosecuted.
The crime spike began under former district attorney George Gascón, who is now district attorney for Los Angeles County, and has continued under Chesa Boudin, who now faces a likely recall election.

San Fran patrol special officer rips Pelosi's inaction over BLACK crime surge: She doesn't care
To most readers of this column, the question is absurd. The reason is not because the question is, in fact, absurd; it is because most readers of this column are conservative, and many are religious.
Am I implying that most leftists do not believe stealing is wrong?
Yes, I am.
As incredible as this assertion is to just about all religious people and virtually all conservatives, most leftists do not believe stealing is wrong. Since I always draw a distinction between those on the Left and liberals, let me add that I suspect most liberals think stealing is wrong. But it almost doesn't matter because they vote for people who do not think it is.
One proof is the passage of Proposition 47, a California ballot initiative passed in 2014, under which theft of less than $950 in goods is treated as a nonviolent misdemeanor and rarely prosecuted. As a result, in Democrat-run California cities such as San Francisco and Los Angeles, retail theft has soared.
Walgreens stores in San Francisco are racking up four times the average amount of theft in Walgreens stores across the country; spending on security guards in San Francisco is 35 times more than the chain's average in other cities. Walgreens has been forced to close 22 stores in the city since 2016.
As reported in the San Francisco Chronicle: "The Safeway located in San Francisco's Castro neighborhood ... was a longstanding, 24-hour fixture in San Francisco's Castro neighborhood. But as of last week, the store's hours have been cut back to 6 a.m. to 9 p.m ... A Safeway spokesperson (said) that the cutbacks are 'due to an increasing amount of theft at the store.'"
Further proof that the Left doesn't consider theft wrong — at least when committed by a person of color — was an interview broadcast on NPR last year with the author of a book titled "In Defense of Looting." The NPR interviewer threw only softball questions to the author.
In the last election, Los Angeles voters elected San Francisco's previous district attorney, George Gascon, as Los Angeles's district attorney. It was Los Angeles's way of declaring that stealing is not wrong. And it is worth noting that it is not only racial minorities and the poor who make these elections possible; it is also prosperous whites. The Los Angeles DA is a wealthy white, and he was supported by a white billionaire, George Soros.
It is hard to believe that millions of Americans do not deem stealing from stores morally wrong, so let's try to explain how this has come about.
Reason No. 1 is moral relativism. For as long as there has been a Left, it has rejected moral absolutes. As the great British historian, Paul Johnson, pointed out a half-century ago in his magnum opus, "Modern Times," the secular world applied the relativism of the natural sciences to morality.
Reason No. 2 is the reason for reason number one: the collapse of the Judeo-Christian value system and the accompanying abandonment of, and often disdain for, biblical ethics. Biblical morality posits moral absolutes — meaning that stealing is wrong for everyone, certainly people of every color. Yes, one can offer a biblical defense of a starving man stealing food for his starving family. But that is hardly what is happening in San Francisco and other American cities.
Reason No. 3 is Marxist morality. From Marx to the present, Marxism has divided the world not between right and wrong, but between economic classes. Therefore, it is morally acceptable for members of the poorer classes to steal from members of the more affluent classes. This notion has made its way into young people's minds for decades. About 30 years ago, I spoke to students from four Cleveland high schools. I asked them to raise their hand if they would steal something they really wanted from a department store if they were certain they would not get caught. Nearly all the students raised their hands. When I asked some of them to justify their reasoning, they all said the same thing: they wouldn't steal from a mom-and-pop store, but they would steal from a department store. It is OK to steal from "the rich."
Reason No. 4 is leftists' view of nonwhites, especially blacks, a view that conservatives have never shared. Leftists truly believe that blacks are intellectually and morally inferior to whites. The evidence? They do not believe blacks should be held to the same intellectual and moral standards to which leftists hold whites. Leftists do not defend whites who steal, and they hold whites to higher intellectual standards. Leftists do not argue for lowering math standards for whites, only for blacks.
The bottom line is the Left is immoral. That is why it defends stealing.
