When the Zohran Mamdani campaign promised to “shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods”, there was little response and even less outrage in the media. Had any politician campaigning to run a major city promised to punitively target any other racial group, it would have been a major national story and a future civil rights investigation. Instead, Mamdani was allowe d to go on MSNBC and try to clean up the message by claiming that it was a “description of the neighborhoods” not an “intention of where we would tax New Yorkers” and that “nothing can be worked backwards from some kind of racial goal in this city.” “The use of that language is just an assessment of that neighborhood,” he tried to assure NBC’s Meet the Press. “It’s not driven by race. It’s more of an assessment.” Had a politician promised to target people living in “blacker neighborhoods” for a punitive policy and then claimed that he was j...

After the latest wave of exposes made Somali fraud a national story, Democrat state officials from Minnesota to Washington to Maine scrambled to conduct cover-ups and threaten anyone exposing the fraud. The head of Seattle’s Office of Immigrant and Refugee Affairs, Hamdi Mohamed, “the first Somali woman elected in the state”, convened a meeting with Gov. Bob Ferguson, representatives of Attorney General Nick Brown, Seattle City Attorney Erika Evans, as well as other elected officials, who promised to protect Somalis from investigations and enforcement. Mayor-Elect Katie Wilson, a radical leftist, declared that she stands “in solidarity with our Somali and Muslim communities” who are facing ICE as well as alleged “doxxing, harassment, and hate” which is how investigations of Somali fraud have been described. “My office has received outreach from members of the Somali community after reports of home-based daycare providers being harassed and accused of fraud with little to no fact-chec...

At Pioneer Courthouse Square in Portland, Oregon, tens of thousands of people crowded around a massive Douglas fir tree decked with lights. Waiting for the carnage to begin was Mohamed Osman Mohamud, a Somali ‘child’ refugee, who was dreaming of killing them all. In 2010, Mohamud had urged a friend of his traveling to Mecca to pray “that I will be a martyr in the highest chambers of paradise.” He planned to attack Americans “in their own element with their families celebrating the holidays.” And Christmas was the perfect time of the year to do it. While fathers lifted up their children on their shoulders and music filled the air, Mohamud was smiling for a different reason.“You know what I like, what makes me happy?” he had told undercover agents. As American families were enjoying the moment, the Somali Muslim was picturing their bodies ripped to shreds by his bomb.“You know, what I like to see? Is when I see the enemy of Allah, then you know their bodies are torn everywhere.” Choosin...

“I got older, and I became a Communist,” Graham Platner, the socialist Bernie-endorsed candidate to become Maine’s senator, posted. Platner is also living under Communism. While his mentor, Sen. Bernie Sanders, is famous for never being able to hold down a paying job for long until he went into politics, Platner, the prep school grad and son of a lawyer and grandson of a famous architect , who claims to be working class, has done even better at making the system work for him. A month before Platner announced his candidacy, the New York Times stopped by and took a boat tour with him accompanied by photographs of the future Senate candidate in his usual working class drag, gimme cap and t-shirt, harvesting and shucking oysters at his oyster farm. The paper didn’t ask how that meshed with Platner’s 100% disability rating from the VA. “I’ve got a couple herniated discs. My shoulder’s a wreck. My knees bother me,” he recently told a reporter about his disability. And apparently he also su...

UK PM Keir Starmer and his Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood have announced a new program to tackle the greatest threat to women in the United Kingdom. English schoolboys. The new program announced by PM Starmer and Secretary Mahmood will train teachers to “spot early signs of misogyny in boys”. Boys who are flagged for misogyny will be directed to special classes on the dangers of ‘toxic masculinity’ and maleness. Rather than deal with the real problem, the Starmer government and Home Secretary Mahmood have decided, in the words of the BBC headline, “Schoolboys to be target of UK’s violence against women strategy.” This comes even as the country is reeling after a video showed two Afghan Muslim migrant refugees dragging away a 15-year-old girl into the bushes while she pleads for help and then raping her. But these are not the ‘schoolboys’ that Starmer and Mahmood are going to war against. So the authorities did their best to cover up the horrifying assault, falsely implying that the two...

SEIU, the massively powerful and radical health care union, claims that California faces a ‘healthcare collapse’ due to what it calls ‘federal funding cuts’ and only an ’emergency’ 5% tax on the total net worth of anyone with over $1 billion in assets will save the state’s health care. There are no actual ‘cuts’, what SEIU and much of California’s Democrat machine falsely describes as cuts is actually MediCal (California’s name for Medicaid) getting work requirements for healthy adults and paperwork requirements expected to force illegal aliens off MediCal. Gov. Gavin Newsom’s efforts to provide free health care to illegal aliens is what actually endangered the state’s health care funding. The only people losing MediCal are the people who shouldn’t have it in the first place. California Democrats are however too beholden to SEIU and its rival the California Nurses Association to graciously accept the much needed reforms. Instead, SEIU is lobbying to get its ‘California Billionaire Tax ...

“Let Gaza live,” a mob of anti-Israel protesters screamed, brandishing signs falsely accusing the Jewish State of “ethnic cleansing”, “starving Gaza” and genocide while illegally blocking traffic outside the Israeli consulate in Midtown Manhattan. The only thing more disgusting than the ugly spectacle, which had been timed around a Hamas famine propaganda campaign over the summer, was that one of the hate groups behind the anti-Israel protest, which ended in arrests, was funded by proceeds from Schindler’s List. When Steven Spielberg created the Righteous Persons Foundation with some of the profits from Schindler’s List, he wanted to educate people about the Holocaust and build up Jewish life in America. “I could not accept any money from ‘Schindler’s List’ — if it even made any money. It was blood money, and needed to be put back into the Jewish community.” “My parents didn’t keep kosher and we mainly observed all the holidays when my grandparents stayed with us,” the filmmaker said ...

In 1965, Ronald McKinley Everett changed his name to Maulana Karenga, in 1966, he invented the fictional holiday of Kwanzaa, in 1969, members of his US black nationalist organization got into a gunfight with Black Panthers at UCLA, in 1971, he was arrested for torturing two women, and in 1989, he was hired as the chair of the black studies department at a California State University college where he currently teaches on subjects such as “the socio-ethical thought of Malcolm X” and “Ancient Egyptian Maatian Ethics” (after the goddess Maat). The story of Kwanzaa and Karenga is a small part of the larger story of how California’s public colleges, its UC (University of California) and CSU (California State University) systems, incubated, financed and inflicted some of the worst racial political extremism on America. When Chancellor Charles Young (later the head of the Qatar Foundation) took office, UCLA had a 12% minority population. Young, like many radical administrators, was on a missio...
