Mamdani’s Response to 7-Month-Old Shot Dead Sparks Firestorm Over What He Blames

/0 Comments/in , , /by

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing criticism from local politicians and onlookers on social media over comments he made that critics say places blame on guns rather than criminals in an incident involving the shooting death of a 7-month-old child in Brooklyn.

“This is not our first family to know this pain,” Mamdani said in response to a 7-month-old baby girl, Kaori Patterson-Moore, who was killed by a stray bullet on Wednesday afternoon when a gunman on a moped opened fire on a Brooklyn street in a suspected gang-related incident.

“Too many children have never grown up into becoming adults. To parents who’ve had to bury those they love most. We cannot accept it as normal in our city. We cannot grow numb to this pain, and today is a devastating reminder of just how much more work there is to be done… to combat gun violence across the city.”

The clip, along with other comments by Mamdani, have sparked criticism from local politicians, experts and onlookers who say the mayor is blaming guns instead of criminals and implementing policies that embolden those criminals.

“Literally anything but blaming the criminals who our system releases onto our streets repeatedly, over and over again, with no consequences,” NYC Republican Councilwoman Vickie Paladino posted on X. “Absolute disgrace.”

WATCH: Trump Supporters Clash with Antifa Leftists During ‘No Kings’ Rally

/0 Comments/in , /by

Leftists are showing up for “No Kings” rallies in areas across the United States to protest President Donald Trump, and some attendees are aligning themselves with Antifa, a domestic terrorist organization.

Organizers claim there are over 3,000 events happening in all 50 states, and the rally at the Minnesota Capitol in St. Paul is the flagship event, CBS News reported Saturday.

Video footage taken by Freedom News at a “No Kings” protest in West Palm Beach, Florida, showed protesters on the side of the street yelling and holding signs. One elderly woman wore a t-shirt that said “Aunt Tifa” on it, while someone else held a sign that read “I am Antifa and the Constitution is my handbook.”

Trump in September signed an executive order designating Antifa a domestic terrorist organization, according to Breitbart News:

The order declares Antifa a “militarist, anarchist enterprise” engaged in organized violence against law enforcement and political figures, and directs federal departments and agencies to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle its operations, including prosecutorial actions against those who fund them.

…

The order comes less than two weeks after the assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University. Authorities reported that ammunition casings recovered from the suspected weapon were inscribed with Antifa-related slogans, including “Hey fascist! Catch!” and the chorus of “Bella Ciao,” an anthem associated with communist partisans in Italy during World War II and later adopted by Antifa groups worldwide.

‘Appalling’ Video Shows Protesters Cheer American Troops Returning Home From Iran War ‘In Caskets’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Shocking video from a radical anti-Iran war protest in Philadelphia showed participants explicitly supporting Islamic terror groups and calling for “cheers” every time an American servicemember comes home “in a casket.”

Demonstrators at the “Hands Off Iran” protests in Philadelphia have carried signs condemning the war and attacking Israel, President Donald Trump, and even Democratic Sen. John Fetterman. One speaker in a video that went viral Thursday explicitly praised terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah and advocated for a “strong Iranian state” to maintain their “fighting capacity” against Israel.

In the clip filmed by Philadelphia-based conservative activist Frankie Scales, the masked speaker drew loud cheers as he declared they celebrate American deaths and called for bringing the U.S. “to its knees.

As of publication, seven American military personnel were killed or died from wounds inflicted by hostile action during Operation Epic Fury, while six others were killed in the crash of an Air Force refueling aircraft in support of the operation.

“Until we have done everything in our power to bring the United States to its knees, let us not lose sight of the enemy,” the speaker said. “For every US military base that crumbles and for every US soldier who returns home in a casket, we cheer. Hamas, Hezbollah, Ansar Allah, all of the resistance forces we celebrate, these popular forces on the ground spend every waking moment in direct confrontation with Zionism, and they rely on a strong Iranian state to maintain their fighting capacity.”

Donald Trump Publicly Blames Pete Hegseth for Starting Iran Conflict

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .The discussion started on local safety issues but quickly turned to the ongoing U.S. military campaign against Iran. Trump began recounting how he had gathered his top officials weeks earlier to talk about Iran’s nuclear program and its history of supporting terror.

He described weighing options like more sanctions or direct action. Then he turned to Hegseth and delivered the line that made headlines. “Pete, I think you were the first one to speak up,”

Trump said. “And you said, ‘Let’s do it.’ Because you can’t let them have a nuclear weapon.” Hegseth stayed quiet as the room absorbed the words. . .

The next day, March 24, Trump doubled down during another event at the Oval Office after swearing in a new official. He said Hegseth and Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen.

Dan Caine were the only two people disappointed that talks with Iran might lead to a quick settlement. “Pete didn’t want it to be settled,” Trump stated. “They were not interested in settlement. They were interested in just winning this thing.” (Read more from “Donald Trump Publicly Blames Pete Hegseth for Starting Iran Conflict” HERE)

Trump Lays Out Terms For End To Iran War; Netanyahu Says Israel Will Continue to Attack Iran

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. President Donald Trump on Monday outlined the conditions Iran would have to meet for Operation Epic Fury to end.

Trump announced Monday morning that talks had started between the United States and Iran, pausing a planned strike on Iranian power plants for five days. Trump spoke to reporters before boarding Air Force One en route to an event in Memphis.

“We’re looking for all of the things that we’ve been talking about,” Trump told reporters. “We want to see no nuclear bomb, no nuclear weapon, not even close to it, low-key on the missiles. We want to see peace in the Middle East. We want the nuclear dust, we’re going to want that, and I think we’re going to get that.”

“We’ve agreed to that, yes, we’ve agreed to that uranium … we want no enrichment, but we also want the enriched uranium,” Trump continued. “If this happens, it’s a great start for Iran to build itself back, and it’s everything that we want, and it’s also great for Israel and it’s great for the other Middle Eastern countries, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, all of them, Kuwait and Bahrain in particular, so it’s great for all of them.”

Trump announced the start of Operation Epic Fury in a Feb. 28 post on Truth Social after negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program collapsed. Steve Witkoff, President Trump’s Middle East envoy, said in a March 2 interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity that Iranian diplomats declared the regime would keep enriching uranium and claimed to already possess enough material for nearly a dozen “dirty” weapons.

Netanyahu Says Israel Will Continue to Attack Iran Despite Trump’s Deescalation Post

By Mediaite. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his country will continue “smashing” Iran while the United States discusses a potential deal to end the war with what’s left of Iran’s leadership.

Netanyahu shared the update in a video post a few hours after President Donald Trump said the U.S. and Iran have held “PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS” on a potential end to “HOSTILITIES”; Trump also announced a temporary halt on his plan to bomb Iran’s power plants, which was set to start on Monday night if Iran did not meet his deadline to “FULLY OPEN” the Strait of Hormuz.

Netanyahu — in a brief video posted on X — said that he had spoken with “our friend” Trump on Monday, and that he believes there is “an opportunity to leverage the tremendous achievements we have reached alongside the U.S. military to realize the goals of the war through an agreement that will safeguard our vital interests.”

He then said Israel will continue to strike Iran — as well as Lebanon — while the sides negotiate.

“We are smashing the missile program and the nuclear program, and we continue to deal severe blows to Hezbollah,” Netanyahu said.

ICE Arrest of Illegal Migrant Fugitive at San Francisco Airport Sparks Fear-Mongering — Here’s what Really Happened

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Viral video of a woman being nabbed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers at San Francisco International Airport sparked mass online fear-mongering about Trump’s deployment of immigration agents to help ease the TSA security crisis.

Video captured the moment ICE agents began handcuffing a crying woman on Sunday at around 10 p.m. inside the airport’s Terminal 3.

The officers were met with backlash from multiple passengers who filmed the scene and yelled at them, as the woman continued to cry with a young girl standing beside her, also sobbing. . .

@argw6 ICE at SFO 3/22 10pm I’m not from the area- if anyone knows what organizations in the area I can send this to to help identify this woman please let me know. (I called SF rapid response network but no one answered and I left a message) SF Police shielded these unidentified men as they illegally detained a woman with a young child at SFO airport #ice #sanfrancisco #cbp #iceout #bayarea #icesanfrancisco #sfo ♬ original sound – argw

However, the Department of Homeland Security told Fox News that the woman was part of a family of illegal Guatemalan migrants who have had removal orders since 2019.

Agents arrested the family members as part of a targeted operation, but as they were being escorted away, the woman broke free and ran, according to DHS. (Read more from “ICE Arrest of Illegal Migrant Fugitive at San Francisco Airport Sparks Fear-Mongering — Here’s what Really Happened” HERE)

Others told the outlet that the explosion rattled their homes and vehicles.

Jefferson County Sheriff Zena Stephens suggested that the explosion may be linked to a mishap with a heating unit at the refinery, the outlet reported. (Read more from “Massive Explosion at Crude Oil Refinery Rocks Texas City as Residents Told to Shelter in Place” HERE)

Netanyahu’s Jesus Remark Sparks Outrage: ‘One of the Most Disgusting Anti-Christian Comments I’ve Heard From a World Leader’

/3 Comments/in , , /by

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday (March 19) delivered a press conference amid the war between the US-Israel and Iran. Even as he spoke about the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, a comment he made about Jesus Christ and Genghis Khan sparked a row, with many accusing Netanyahu of being “anti-Christian.”

In his address, Netanyahu said: “Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan. If you are strong enough, ruthless enough, and powerful enough, evil will overcome good.” His comments seemed to come in reference to a 2019 interview where he summarized historian Will Durant’s book “The Lessons of History.”

The clip of Netanyahu’s remark went viral, with many interpreting the comments as anti-Christian.

“This is one of the most disgusting anti-Christian comments I’ve heard from a world leader. Just another example of Netanyahu exposing his anti-Christian beliefs. And many Christians will again choose to ignore it,” one user said. . .

“Is there any more proof this guy is pure evil and anti Christian?” wrote another.
