Conservative Presidential Candidate Shot in the Head

/1 Comment/in , , /by

As if this weekend couldn’t get more chaotic as Los Angeles descends into a pro-illegal alien rager that’s required the deployment of National Guard units, in Colombia, conservative presidential candidate Miguel Uribe is reportedly in stable but critical condition after being shot in the head during a campaign event in Bogota (via Bloomberg):

Colombian presidential candidate Miguel Uribe Turbay was shot at a campaign event in Bogota on Saturday in an act reminiscent of the drug-fueled political violence that roiled the nation in the 1980s and early 1990s.

The 39-year old senator from the opposition Democratic Center party was rushed to a medical center. He was stabilized there before being moved to a major hospital in north Bogota, according to the Attorney General’s office.

Footage posted by local media showed Uribe’s head and back covered in blood.

The gunman has been detained, Bogota Mayor Carlos Galan said on X. Attorney General Luz Camargo said that a 15-year-old youth was arrested, after being beaten up by members of the public, and that authorities captured a 9mm gun. The minor is currently in a medical center, she said.

Columbia Prof Who Called to Defund the Police, Now Wants Police to Protect Him From Anti-Israel Protests

/0 Comments/in , /by

The same Columbia University professor who advocated defunding the police is the same professor who is now pleading for law enforcement to protect him from the anti-Israel protestors invading the university’s campus.

Columbia Business School assistant professor Shai Davidai was a staunch anti-police advocate in the past, accusing law enforcement of using their weapons “disproportionately on black men.”

“Lawmakers give police offers the ammunition which they then use disproportionately on Black men. Should we hold lawmakers accountable?” Davidai said when asked by author and filmmaker Mike Cernovich if he is “worried that the evil racist police will shoot people?”

However, Davidai is demanding Columbia officials to send New York Police officers to his side and escort him to and from his office on campus amid the anti-Israel protests occupying university grounds.

He accused Columbia of “completely fail[ing] to protect the safety of Jewish students,” resulting in him “requesting approval to have a police escort of at least 10 cops with me.” (Read more from “Columbia Prof Who Called to Defund the Police, Now Wants Police to Protect Him From Anti-Israel Protests” HERE)

Massive Protests Against Leftist Colombian President Break Out (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Thousands of protesters gathered in the streets of Colombia Sunday to rally against leftist President Gustavo Petro following his recent proposal of a social reform agenda.

Videos posted to X (formerly known as Twitter) shows the large group of protesters filling the streets of several cities, including the capital of Bogota. One clip circulating online shows Bolivar Plaza outside the presidential palace completely full of activists, with most holding umbrellas and a few waving flags over their heads.

Since Petro was sworn into office in August 2022, many Colombians have been outspoken against the leftist leader’s guidance. However, momentum has grown against Petro notably after laying out a possible plan to rewrite the country’s constitution through his social reform agenda, according to the Associated Press. The Colombian president stated that the country would have to “call a national constituent assembly” which is a legal mechanism that last allowed the rewrite of the Constitution in 1991, according to Bloomberg.

“Colombia has to call a national constituent assembly,” Petro stated. “Colombia doesn’t have to kneel.”
