Man with gender dysphoria and a lawmaker pleads in federal court on sexual exploitation of children charges

A thing of beauty is a joy forever--he need not worry

Folks, here we go again with another "trailblazing" figure from the transgender activist class crashing spectacularly into reality. Stacie-Marie Laughton, a man who believes he's a woman, and who was hailed as the first openly transgender state lawmaker in New Hampshire history (and often falsely called the first in the entire country), just pleaded guilty in federal court to sexual exploitation of children.

Yes, this former Democratic representative, while serving in the New Hampshire House back in 2022, was scheming with his disgusting ex-girlfriend, Lindsay Groves, who worked at a Massachusetts daycare. Groves snapped nude photos of preschoolers, kids under the age of 5, and sent them straight to Laughton. According to court filings, "Groves took four photos of children under the age of 5." 

And it gets worse. 

The pair "exchanged thousands of text messages" where Laughton openly expressed his desire to sexually abuse these toddlers. Investigators say Laughton wasn't just passively receiving the images; he was actively pushing for them and even fantasizing about assaulting the children. He should receive life in the slammer, in my opinion.

This isn't some fringe nobody. Laughton was elected multiple times, celebrated by the media and the left as a historic pioneer. But his career has been one long string of scandals: felony credit card fraud convictions that forced a resignation in 2012, a bomb threat hoax, stalking charges that ended his last term in 2022. Now this—preying on the most vulnerable kids imaginable.

Of course, the same outlets that fawned over his "bravery" for wearing women's clothing and bathing in his delusion, are now quietly reporting the guilty plea, often still using feminine pronouns because apparently that's more important than the victims. 

But let's be clear: this case isn't about one bad apple spoiling the bunch. When you elevate people based on identity rather than character, when you ignore red flags because someone checks the right progressive boxes, this is what you get. A predator in power, exploiting innocent children. The left's obsession with forcing transgender ideology into every corner of society, including schools and daycares, creates blind spots exactly like this.

We need to protect kids first, always. No more pretending these stories are isolated. No more mandatory pronouns for child abusers. Justice for the victims, and a serious reckoning for the ideology that helped put this monster in a position of influence.

Study Finds: Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens dramatically increased Israel focus in recent months

A think tank over in Jerusalem called the Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI) just dropped a study claiming that Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens have gone full-on obsessed with Israel, cranking up the negative chatter big time this year. And for Owens, they're saying it's veered into straight-up antisemitic territory. Shocking, not so much. It's almost as if Owens and Carlson are beholden to the likes of radical Islam.

The study, which used some fancy AI to sift through thousands of their YouTube videos, found that these two formerly right-wing sellouts have "significantly increased their focus on Israel" in recent months, with a "marked escalation" in the anti-Israel rhetoric.

Over the past six months, mentions of Israel, Jews, and even Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shot up way more than talk about other hot-button issues like the Ukraine war, China, or Iran. Israel turned into a "central, and at times dominant," topic for both, Owens kicking it off in February, Carlson piling on in August (or April, depending on which report you read, but you get the idea).

On the tone front, JPPI's AI crunched the numbers and said Tucker's negative Israel content jumped sharply in the last half of the year. For Owens, over 96% of her Israel references were already negative, and she apparently loves that "harsh and hostile language."

The big shift was mostly about volume, just a whole lot more negative content flooding out, including stuff like comparing Israel to Hamas, throwing around "genocide," claiming deliberate child-killing, and pushing conspiracy theories about Israeli or Jewish control over the U.S. government.

Now, the study didn't pin "explicit and consistent" anti-Semitism on Carlson per the IHRA definition. But they dinged him hard for giving a big, uncritical platform to outright antisemites and Holocaust deniers like Nick Fuentes, without pushing back much. So while Carlson isn't a 'technical Jew-hater,' he appears to be an implicit one.

Owens, however, was way more direct. They found 45% of her videos mentioning Jews had an anti-Semitic slant early in the year, doubling to about 75% in recent months. That included generalizations calling Jews a "cult," pushing "Jewish supremacy" claims, accusations of control, deceit, and manipulation, plus dismissing anti-Semitism charges as a "Zionist diversion tactic."

JPPI's big takeaway concluded that this isn't just far-left fringe nonsense anymore; it's seeping into the populist right and MAGA world via big influencers. Terms like "genocide" that used to be lefty staples are now popping up on the right.

"Even on the American far Right, anti-Semitism is already visible, and 'on the table,'" said JPPI Director-General Shuki Friedman.

"The data should serve as a glaring warning light for Israel and the Israeli leadership regarding the support it can mobilize from the right, today and certainly in the future. Only decisive action that provides a counterweight to this extremism can preserve this vital base of support in the US," he added.

Look, nobody's saying free speech should get shut down, but when influential voices start sounding like echoes from the fever swamps, it's worth keeping an eye on. Especially as we head into whatever fresh chaos 2026 has in store. In the meantime, raise a glass to truth-tellers who aren't afraid to ruffle feathers — and let's hope the new year brings more clarity than conspiracy.

Trump admin freezes 'all child care payments' to MN due to daycare fraud scandal

Gov, Tim Walz

Happy New Year's Eve, dear friends. As we close out 2025 with a bang, or in Minnesota's case, the sound of a money spigot being slammed shut, it's time to celebrate the Trump administration finally doing what Democrats have been pretending to do for years: actually fighting fraud.

The Department of Health and Human Services dropped a bombshell on Tuesday, announcing they've frozen every last dime of child care payments to the Land of 10,000 Lakes (and apparently endless scams) amid a massive fraud scandal that's been bubbling under the surface.

“We have frozen all child care payments to the state of Minnesota,” Deputy Secretary Jim O’Neill and Administration for Children & Families Assistant Secretary Alex Adams declared in a video posted on X. “You have probably read the serious allegations that the state of Minnesota has funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to fraudulent daycares across Minnesota over the past decade.”

HHS laid out three no-nonsense moves to tackle what they called the “blatant fraud that appears to be rampant in Minnesota and across the country.” First up: flipping the switch on their “Defend the Spend system,” which now demands justification plus a receipt or photo evidence before any federal bucks head to a state.

Second: Thanks to the dogged investigative work of journalist Nick Shirley over recent months, O’Neill and his team have zeroed in on the folks featured in Shirley's videos. They're now demanding a “comprehensive audit of these centers,” covering everything from attendance records and licenses to complaints, investigations, inspections, and beyond.

Nick Shirley

Third: HHS is rolling out a dedicated fraud reporting hotline and email address so parents, providers, and everyday Americans can drop tips on the grifters.

“We have turned off the money spigot and we are finding the fraud,” the officials said.Shirley's viral videos have been spotlighting some seriously sketchy activity around Minneapolis, showing alleged daycare and autism centers that look more like ghost towns than places caring for kids. This all piles onto earlier revelations, like a federal prosecutor estimating at least $9 billion in fraud across Minnesota programs during Democratic Governor Tim Walz's tenure. 

The Daily Wire even reported that Minnesota was still cutting checks to an accused Somali fraudster running assisted living homes while he awaited trial for what was called the nation's biggest COVID scam, running a fake charity, no less.

First Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson has flagged 14 Medicaid services in the state as “high risk” for fraud.

Shirley, fresh off an appearance on Fox News, laid it out plain and simple: “It’s so obvious,” Shirley explained, referring to the apparent fraud. “If you’re living in Minnesota, you have to raise your eyebrows and think, ‘What’s going on?’ Literally, if you drive around Minneapolis, you’ll see daycare centers, autism centers — you will then see transportation companies that have snow piled up as if they haven’t moved it in months.”

"A kindergartner could've figured out there was fraud going on."

Walz finally piped up on Tuesday, admitting the state had been “taken advantage of” by fraudsters chasing “greed” over helping kids and the elderly. But in classic Democrat fashion, he pointed the finger elsewhere: “We’ve spent years cracking down on fraud – referring cases to law enforcement, shutting down and auditing high-risk programs,” he said in a social media post. “Trump keeps letting fraudsters out of prison. To the national news just now paying attention, here’s what we’ve done to stop it.”

Ah yes, blame Trump, the guy whose administration just shut down the gravy train. Classic deflection from the party that's been overseeing this mess for years.Here's to more spigots getting turned off in 2026. Cheers!

MN's fraud prevention 'fix' won't fix squat says former FBI agent

Minnesota officials think slapping on one extra "verification layer" to their fraud-riddled Medicaid programs is going to fix anything? 

What a joke!

With federal prosecutors alleging that taxpayers in the Land of 10,000 Lakes have been fleeced for potentially over $9 billion since 2018, Gov. Tampon Tim Walz's administration is rolling out this supposed tough new measure: Healthcare giant Optum will now peek at payments from high-risk programs before they go out to providers. If something looks fishy, it'll get kicked to the inspector general.

But let's be real, this is closing the barn door after the horses have bolted, been sold on the black market, and used the proceeds to buy Lambos.

Former FBI Special Agent Jonathan Gilliam nailed it when he told Fox News Digital that this band-aid won't touch the massive scam operation that's been running wild under Walz's watch.

"Putting an extra layer in is not going to help," Gilliam said. "And one layer is not gonna stop any, it may stop one part of the fraud, it's not really gonna make any difference overall."

Gilliam said the governor committed "at the minimum malpractice" given the eye-watering scale of theft on his turf.

This half-hearted "fix" comes after feds dropped the bomb in mid-December: 14 programs alone racked up $18 billion in costs since 2018, and First Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson said at a presser that "half or more" could be pure fraud.

"When I say significant, I'm talking in the order of half or more. But we'll see," Thompson said. "I think a significant portion."

And that's not all; Thompson announced charges against six more suspects tied to a separate housing services scam. In one standout case, a defendant allegedly pocketed $1.4 million in bogus claims, blew some on cryptocurrency, and then skipped the country after getting subpoenaed.

Then there's the infamous Feeding Our Future clusterfrack, where the nonprofit's ringleaders fabricated meal services for needy kids and walked away with nearly $250 million in taxpayer cash.

Criminal defense attorney Sam Bassett told Fox News Digital this mess screams incompetence from the top.

"I think it remains to be seen when the details come out, but it does have that tenor about it right now that somebody should have done something sooner. Maybe this should have been detected much sooner to prevent continued violations," Bassett said.

Somebody? Under Walz's administration, billions vanished while oversight was apparently optional. This new Optum gimmick is just window dressing for a scandal that's exposed endemic failure in Minnesota's welfare system. Taxpayers deserve real accountability, not this too-little, too-late nonsense.

Ric Grenell explains why artists may be refusing to perform at the Trump-Kennedy Center

The elites in the performing arts world are throwing a full-blown meltdown over President Trump's name joining JFK's on the Kennedy Center, and it's exposing just how intolerant the left truly is when they don't get their way.

Red State recently reported, that the board of trustees, stacked with Trump's appointees, voted unanimously to rename the iconic venue The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts, or the Trump-Kennedy Center for short. This honors Trump's massive efforts throughout 2025 to rescue and revitalize the place, pouring in upgrades and modernization under the guidance of his handpicked interim president, Ric Grenell.

New signs went up almost overnight, and that's when the hissy fits began, not from ticket buyers, but from the performers themselves.

Nick Arama, another reporter from Red State, nailed the coverage on jazz musician Chuck Redd, who'd been hosting the center's Christmas Eve "Jazz Jams" since 2006. He bailed at the last minute after spotting the name change. "When I saw the name change on the Kennedy Center website and then hours later on the building, I chose to cancel our concert," Redd told The Associated Press.

Grenell wasn't having it, hitting back hard and threatening a $1 million lawsuit against Redd for breaching his contract.

"Your decision to withdraw at the last moment — explicitly in response to the Center’s recent renaming, which honors President Trump’s extraordinary efforts to save this national treasure — is classic intolerance and very costly to a non-profit Arts institution,” Grenell wrote.

“Regrettably, your action surrenders to the sad bullying tactics employed by certain elements on the left, who have sought to intimidate artists into boycotting performances at our national cultural center," he added.

And Redd's not alone in prioritizing politics over paying fans. The New York jazz outfit The Cookers ditched their New Year's Eve shows, bloviating that "Jazz was born from struggle and from a relentless insistence on freedom: freedom of thought, of expression, and of the full human voice."

Are you kidding?  Adding Trump's name to the building somehow muzzles "human voices"? 

Cut me a huss [don't Google it; Grok it], Trump didn't silence anyone; these guys are the ones ditching their audiences.

Country/folk singer Kristy Lee scrapped her January slot to preserve what she called her integrity, and the Doug Varone and Dancers company axed their April dates, whining they couldn't "step inside this once great institution." Of course it's their call, but don't pretend it's anything but a TDS-fueled tantrum.

Sure, artists cancel for all sorts of reasons: sickness, emergencies, or straight-up political freak-outs. But Grenell dropped a bombshell, claiming he's heard directly from booked acts that CNN and The Washington Post are actively emailing them, pushing boycotts of the Trump-Kennedy Center.

If that's accurate, and there's zero reason to doubt Grenell on this, it's outright interference, the media acting as left-wing activists trying to sabotage a national institution. Classic. It lays bare the left's entitlement: they think they own places like this, and if Trump touches it, they'll burn it down so nobody else can enjoy it. The real victims? The fans and patrons who lose out because orange man bad.

This is peak liberal hypocrisy on display, and it's glorious to watch it backfire.

BREAKING: Iran Begins Civil War: Shots fired and Iran Conducts a Ballistic Missile Test

Iran forces have begun shooting Iranian protesters as unrest has gone full-on. 

AK 47s have been used inside police stations as the Revolutionary Guards have been firing at the protesters. It seems that a 300$ inflation rate has angered the public as the Iranian rial has become as useful as toilet paper in Asia. 

The people are chanting that "this is the final battle," and "death to Khamenei," and it's beginning to look like the mainstream media might even report on the situation.

The IRGC thugs have been kidnapping people off the streets. 

The street scenes are chaotic.

President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have sent words of support to the brave people of Iran who are out in the streets protesting the regime, being shot at and as mentioned, some are being kidnapped.

The Trump administration has put additional sanctions on Iran.

As there is no Second Amendment, since there's no Constitution, in Iran, the people are helpless against the IRGC goons.

As mentioned in the title, Iran has conducted ballistic missile test, after the warning by Trump to cease and desist. 

Obviously, this is an ongoing situation and more will follow.

Judicial Watch a conservative watchdog concerned over Trump's safety after total screwup by Secret Service

The folks at Judicial Watch aren't letting up on the Secret Service, and for good reason, another glaring security failure in September put President Donald Trump dangerously close to a group of radical protesters who somehow knew exactly where he'd be.

Even after two assassination attempts on his life and a shake-up in Secret Service leadership, Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton is sounding the alarm on what looks like ongoing incompetence at the agency charged with protecting the president.

"I'm really concerned about the president's safety," Fitton stated.

He pointed out the obvious: President Trump "was almost killed twice, supposedly under the protection of the Secret Service, and then they walked him into a potentially dangerous ambush."

The incident happened during Trump's September 9 visit to Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak and Stone Crab in Washington, D.C., where Code Pink activists managed to get right next to the president's table.

Dining with him were Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

The protesters booked a nearby table, started shouting their chants, and had to be removed.“These people were allowed to get within arm’s length of the sitting president with knives and who knows what else in the restaurant available to them,” he continued, labeling the incident as an “unbelievable security lapse.”

Judicial Watch has now sued for internal Secret Service records as part of their probe.They're digging into how these protesters got advance word of the president's location and how they were allowed so close—a combination that screams massive risk.

"I can't believe they would let random people sit in that close proximity to them," stated former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker. "That's crazy. That's like the days when Abraham Lincoln would ride down Pennsylvania Avenue in his coach and buggy with no protection."

At a time when threats against President Trump remain sky-high, this kind of lapse isn't just embarrassing, it's extremely dangerous. The Secret Service needs to get its act together, and fast.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Tucker Carlson is oblivious to those 'killed by radical Islam'

One is repeatedly assured that terrorism is a multifaceted phenomenon, with threats emanating from every corner of the ideological spectrum. Yet when one examines the most authoritative data, a rather different picture emerges, one that many suicidal cretins in the West seem determined to obscure.

The most reliable comprehensive assessment remains the Global Terrorism Index (GTI) 2025, published by the Institute for Economics & Peace, covering incidents through 2024. It records some 8,000–8,500 terrorism deaths globally in that year, with the overwhelming majority perpetrated by radical Islamist groups such as Islamic State, al-Shabaab, JNIM, Boko Haram, and their affiliates. Islamic State alone was responsible for 1,805 deaths across 22 countries, concentrated principally in Syria and the Democratic Republic of Congo. But it seems that Tucker Carlson isn't aware of this, nor personally knows anyone killed by radical [aka orthodox] Islam.

The four deadliest terrorist organizations, all Islamist, accounted for the bulk of these fatalities, well over 80% of those reliably attributed. Over 98% of terrorism deaths occurred in conflict zones, chiefly the Sahel, sub-Saharan Africa, Somalia, Syria, and Afghanistan, where radical Islamist militants continue to dominate. Tucker knows nobody in these attacks who have been killed by radical Muslims.

Independent corroboration comes from sources such as the Africa Center for Strategic Studies, which documents tens of thousands of fatalities linked to militant Islamist violence on the continent in recent years, figures that represent nearly all terrorism deaths there.

As for 2025 itself, up to the end of this year, no complete global report yet exists, given the inevitable lag in databases like the Global Terrorism Database or the forthcoming GTI. Activity, however, appears to persist at levels comparable to or marginally below 2024, with Islamic State claiming around 1,100 attacks worldwide this year. 

Notable Islamist-inspired incidents include the January 1 New Orleans truck attack (14–15 deaths, IS-inspired) alongside ongoing assaults in Syria, Pakistan, Africa, and occasional strikes in Europe, often yielding casualties in the low double digits. 

Africa remains the undisputed epicentre, with unrelenting high-lethality operations by groups such as al-Shabaab in Somalia and Islamic State affiliates across the Sahel, Mozambique, and Nigeria.

Both historically and in the present day, radical Islamist extremism, carefully distinguished from Islam as a faith, stands as the predominant driver of global terrorism fatalities, responsible for 90–95% or more of deaths in recent years according to multiple authoritative sources (GTI, Fondapol studies, and others). Non-Islamist terrorism, far-right, separatist, or otherwise, claims far fewer lives worldwide, though it receives disproportionate attention in Western nations.

Precise tallies naturally vary depending on definitions (whether battlefield deaths in active conflicts are excluded, or only strict civilian-targeted attacks counted), yet the pattern is unmistakable: Islamist-related terrorism deaths run into the high thousands annually in recent years, overwhelmingly in conflict-ravaged Muslim-majority regions where the victims themselves are predominantly Muslim.

One might have thought this reality would inform public discourse more honestly. Instead, we are often treated to a peculiar reluctance to name the obvious, a reluctance that does no service to the victims, nor to the cause of genuine understanding.

Grok says of radical Islamic killings: Exact counts vary by definition (e.g., excluding battlefield deaths in conflicts vs. strict civilian-targeted attacks), but estimates for Islamist-related terrorism deaths are typically in the high thousands to low tens of thousands annually in recent years, concentrated in conflict-affected Muslim-majority regions where victims are predominantly Muslim.

So while Tucker Carlson doesn't know anyone killed by radical Islam, radical Islam knows the score.

Alaa Abd El-Fattah apologizes for frustrations of a 'young man' calling for death of Jews

Alaa Abd el-Fattah stands next to his mother, Laila Soueif, and sister, Sanaa, at home in Giza, Egypt, September 23, 2025.(photo credit: REUTERS/MOHAMED ABD EL GHANY)   

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other cabinet ministers announced that they were “delighted” that El-Fattah had been brought to the UK and reunited with his family after 12 years in the slammer after calling for the death of Jews wherever you can find them. 

Let's face it, kids like El-Fattah are impressionable by Islamic scripture and want to do the best to please their families.

Alaa Abd El-Fattah, the long-imprisoned Egyptian political activist who arrived in the United Kingdom last week, has "unequivocally" apologized for social media statements calling for the killing of Zionists and white people everywhere. 

On Friday, Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other anti-Semitic cabinet ministers announced on social media that they were “delighted” that El-Fattah had been brought to the UK and reunited with his family after 12 years in prison. However, his previous comments - such as him considering “killing any colonialists and especially Zionists heroic” - soon circulated online.

In a public statement on Monday, El-Fattah said he was "shaken that, just as I am being reunited with my family for the first time in 12 years, several historic tweets of mine have been republished and used to question and attack my integrity and values, escalating to calls for the revocation of my citizenship."

Yeah, social media is nothing like Vegas. What goes on social media doesn't stay on social media. 

He admitted that, looking at the tweets now, "the ones that were not completely twisted out of their meaning, I do understand how shocking and hurtful they are, and for that I unequivocally apologize." He now plans to keep his thoughts and beliefs to himself, and maybe tell his wife and mom.

Partying like it's 1967

Comments expressions of 'anger and frustrations 'El-Fattah said his previous comments were mostly expressions of a young "man's anger and frustrations in a time of regional crises (the wars in Iraq, Lebanon and Gaza), and the rise of police brutality against Egyptian youth." And those Joooze!

He claimed that while he was deeply embedded in "antagonistic online cultures" at the time, his younger self never intended to offend a wider public and was actually "engaged in the non-violent pro-democracy movement."

El-Fattah denied that any of his previous tweets included homophobia, saying that he has paid "a steep price for support for LGBTQ rights in Egypt." He even has gay friends and knows a transgender 'woman' or two.

He also rejected accusations of Holocaust denial in spite of his previous claim in spite of a tweet that. stated something along the lines of:  "There was no genocide against Jews by the Nazis – after all, many Jews are left."

"I take accusations of anti-Semitism very seriously," he claimed.

Can a Jew-hater change his mind after being punished for 12 years? Maybe, but I have my doubts.

Jihadi terrorist KWTG: PA claims he was a 'young boy' delivering a package

"The Al-Quds Brigades, the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine’s military wing, accompanied to his wedding [i.e., a Martyr’s funeral is considered his wedding to the 72 Virgins in Paradise in Islam] Martyr Muhammad Iyad Abahreh …"

The Palestinian Authority is at it again with their shameless double game on terrorism—glorifying killers when it suits them domestically, then airbrushing them into innocent victims to scam sympathy (and cash) from the West.

When a terrorist actually pulls off an attack on Jews, the PA can't wait to hail him as a hero, slapping his name on schools, streets, and town squares. But when one gets taken out mid-attempt, especially if he's young and the optics could rile up the international crowd, they magically transform him into a wide-eyed civilian with zero connection to violence. In fact, he's a victim.

Take the latest example: 16-year-old Islamic Jihad operative Muhammad Iyad Abahreh, KWTG [Killed While Throwing Grenades] after hurling the deadly objects at Israeli troops near Jenin.

Islamic Jihad's Al-Quds Brigades didn't hesitate to claim him loud and proud as one of their own, bragging about his "martyrdom" and vowing more of the same:

“The Al-Quds Brigades accompany to his wedding Martyr Muhammad Abahreh from Jenin”“The Al-Quds Brigades, the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine’s military wing, accompanied to his wedding [i.e., a Martyr’s funeral is considered his wedding to the 72 Virgins in Paradise in Islam] Martyr Muhammad Iyad Abahreh …

In a statement on Sunday, [Dec. 14, 2025,] the brigades said that Abahreh is one of the Jihad fighters of the Al-Yamun Brigade and that he ascended to Heaven as a Martyr after he managed to engage with the occupation [i.e., Israeli] soldiers and threw several hand grenades at them during an invasion of the town of Silat Al-Harithiya yesterday evening, Saturday, Dec. 13, 2025.The brigades emphasized that they will remain steadfast on the path of Jihad and resistance until liberation and return.”

Fast-forward 24 hours, and the PA's mouthpiece, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, rolls out the sanitized fairy tale: No more "Jihad fighter," no grenades, no Islamic Jihad mention. Suddenly, he's just a harmless "young boy" gunned down while "delivering a package" on his motorcycle. Complete with sob stories about his dreams of graduating high school and supporting his family.

“Al-Yamun and Silat Al-Harithiya, west of Jenin, were partners in grief two nights ago, Saturday, [Dec. 13, 2025]. The two neighboring towns mourned 16-year-old boy Muhammad Iyad Muhammad Abahreh, who ascended to Heaven in Silat Al-Harithiya, and the occupation seized his body…

"3,4,5, BOOM!"

Family sources told Al-Hayat Al-Jadida that young Abahreh is the eldest [child] in the family and that he was looking forward to finishing his experimental matriculation exams, but the occupation’s bullets changed the course of his dreams.

They noted that Muhammad was on his motorcycle on his way to deliver a package in nearby Silat Al-Harithiya, but the occupation soldiers shot him with six bullets and seized his body…Al-Yamun High School Principal Radwan Freihat described the loss experienced by the school with Muhammad’s death … who was loved, diligent, and a seeker of knowledge. He said that his death as a Martyr halted his aspirations to earn a high [school graduation] certificate to help his parents."

This isn't some one-off fluke, the PA pulls this rewrite stunt routinely to paint Israel as the big bad wolf for global audiences and keep those donor dollars flowing. They did the exact same thing just a month ago after Fatah terrorists murdered Aharon Cohen and wounded others. They still deny the October 7 massacre outright. And they have the gall to lecture world leaders about rejecting terrorism and antisemitism while bankrolling it at home.

Hypocrisy doesn't even begin to cover it.

The Moral Asymmetry of Terror: Murderer Treated in Israeli Hospital Alongside His Victims

In the latest grim reminder of the unrelenting nature of Palestinian terrorism against Israeli civilians, the perpetrator of Friday's murderous rampage in northern Israel, a man named Ahmed Abu al-Rov, has been discharged from the Emek Medical Center in Afula and transferred into custody for further interrogation.

This is the same individual who, on December 26, coldly rammed his vehicle into 68-year-old Shimshon Mordechai near Beit She'an, killing him, before fleeing the scene, stopping only to stab to death 18-year-old Aviv Maor on Route 71. He continued his spree, wounding others, a 16-year-old boy lightly injured in the initial ramming and treated in the hospital's pediatric ward, and a 37-year-old man struck on the head, before finally being shot and neutralized outside Afula.

One might pause to reflect on the sheer absurdity of the scene: a terrorist who has just murdered two innocent Jews in cold blood receiving treatment in an Israeli hospital, alongside one of his young victims. It is a peculiarity of Israeli decency, one that borders on self-sabotage, that even those intent on the destruction of the state and its people are afforded medical care that would be unthinkable in reverse.

Unsurprisingly, this provoked outrage. On Friday, a demonstration erupted outside the hospital, organized by activists from the right-wing La Familia group, who demanded an end to the terrorist's treatment. "It is impossible for a terrorist who murdered civilians to receive treatment in an Israeli hospital," read one of the social media posts rallying protesters, who attempted to enter the facility and force the termination of his hospitalization.

This echoes a similar incident following the atrocities of October 7, 2023, when La Familia demonstrators stormed Sheba Medical Center amid rumors that captured Hamas terrorists were being treated there.

Meanwhile, Israeli security forces have moved decisively against potential accomplices. In a joint announcement, police and the Shin Bet revealed that two brothers of Abu al-Rov, aged 30 and 33, were arrested in a nighttime raid near Arraba after indications emerged that they had aided in concealing his location.

Such episodes are not anomalies; they are the predictable outgrowth of a society in which incitement to murder Jews is routine, and where the line between civilian and combatant has long been erased on one side of the conflict. While Israel extends humanitarian gestures even to its would-be killers, the response from the other side remains one of unyielding hatred. It is a disparity that no amount of wishful thinking can bridge—and one that underscores why peace remains so stubbornly elusive.

Is This 70% Hezbollah Infiltration Claim Real? If So, It's Another Mossad Masterclass

Look, if this latest bombshell out of Lebanon holds up, Israel just dropped another intelligence nuke on its enemies that's straight out of a spy thriller, only better, because it's real life and the bad guys are the ones getting owned.

According to a fresh interview with Israel's N12 channel, an anonymous Hezbollah fighter is spilling the beans that Israeli infiltration has gone so deep it's almost comical. The guy claims a whopping 70% of the terror group's operatives are somehow "working with Israel." This means that nearly three-quarters of the rocket-slinging scumcrumpets who've been tormenting the Jewish state for decades might be on Team Mossad.

Here's the Hezbollah insider himself (via the Jerusalem Post): "We fear Israel will eliminate us, but it turns out that 70% of Hezbollah operatives work with Israel. Israel knows the name of every child here, their father, and their sister," he said. "Israel knows more about us than we know about ourselves.

"We still haven’t understood how Israel penetrates us this way," N12 quoted the operative as saying.

The chat went down near the northern border, close to the guy's village, whose house, by the way, got wrecked in last year's dust-up with the IDF. And get this: even after all that, he's cool with handing over his weapons if it means peace and getting back to normal life.

This isn't some isolated "oops" moment for the terror crowd. It reminds me of that epic own-goal in Iran, where the head of their special anti-Mossad unit turned out to be . . .  wait for it . . . an actual Israeli asset, along with about 20 of his buddies. Talk about failing upward.

If this 70% figure is anywhere close to accurate, and coming from a disgruntled Hezbollah guy, it's got that ring of bitter truth, it's yet another reminder that when it comes to intelligence ops, nobody does it like Israel. 

Hezbollah's been reduced to paranoia central, wondering who's really on their side. 

The terrorists wanted a forever war. Instead, they're getting a masterclass in why you don't poke the bear with the best spies on the planet.

BREAKING: Israel Assassinates Iranian Regime Official

Israel assassinated an Iranian official, Iran hijacked a foreign oil tanker in the Persian Gulf, and today is Boxing Day.

Sixteen foreign crew members have been kidnapped by the Iranian regime, but this has not been broadcasted by the mainstream media. Islamic State TV proudly broadcast a video of the illegal attack and all the media can say is "Lah-dee-dah."

Both Arabs and the Iranian Islamic regime have increased their presence in the Persian Gulf while the West twiddles their thumbs.

Meanwhile, Israel was able to eliminate a member of Iran's Quds forces outside of Beirut. He was blown to convenient bitesize pieces by what appears to be a drone. The IRGC is struggling to keep control of internal strife and isn't doing a great job.

Five Iranian Christians have been sent to prison for ten years each for distributing Bibles, Christian literature, and praying. The United Nations Human Rights Council has done squat.zilch to do anything about this. 

Several Bibles have been confiscated and destroyed, while nothing is being done to stop this, and Qur'ans are not being burned by Christians or others. This has to stop.

BREAKING: 2 Murdered, 2 Wounded in Jihadi Attack in Northern Israel

(photo credit: ISRAEL POLICE) ByTZVI JASPER, JERUSALEM POST STAFF DECEMBER 26, 2025 13:41Updated: DECEMBER 26, 2025 15:55

Once again, the grim reality of life in Israel asserts itself with brutal clarity. On December 26, 2025, a Palestinian terrorist carried out a combined ramming and stabbing attack across multiple sites in the north of the country, murdering two Israeli civilians and wounding others before being neutralized.

The attack began near Beit She'an, where the terrorist deliberately rammed his vehicle into pedestrians. A 68-year-old man, later identified as Shimshon Mordechai (or Mordechai Shimshon), a resident of Beit She'an, was struck and fatally injured. Nearby, a 16-year-old boy was also hit by the vehicle, sustaining light injuries; he was treated at the scene and evacuated to hospital.

As Magen David Adom EMT Daniel Mousai recounted: "When we arrived at the scene, we saw the boy sitting inside a car, conscious and suffering from injuries to his limbs." "Citizens who were there told us that he had been hit by a fleeing vehicle and they helped him in the first moments."

Mousai continued: Just as the team was preparing to transport the boy, they received word of another victim nearby. "I immediately got to him and saw a 68-year-old man lying on the side of the road, suffering from a serious chest injury. Together with the intensive care unit team, we provided medical treatment and performed CPR, but his injury was fatal and we had to pronounce him dead on the spot."

The terrorist then fled, driving along Route 71 where he stopped to stab an 18- or 19-year-old young woman, Aviv Maor, who was killed at the scene.

Continuing toward Afula, the attacker attempted another assault. A 37-year-old man was moderately wounded there, according to a witness speaking to i24news: "The terrorist missed him and ran into an electric pole." "He got out of the vehicle, picked up a huge rock, and brought it down on his head. Immediately afterward the police arrived and took him down."

The terrorist, identified as Ahmad Abu al-Rub (or similar silly variations), a resident of Qabatiya in the West Bank, had illegally infiltrated Israel days earlier. Reports indicate he was employed by an Israeli citizen and used his employer's vehicle in the attack. He was ultimately neutralized by security forces and a civilian bystander, and evacuated to hospital in moderate condition.

In response, Defense Minister Israel Katz directed the IDF to prepare operations in Qabatiya. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called for strengthened Israeli control over Judea and Samaria and an end to the employment of illegal residents. Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar pointed to the Palestinian Authority's ongoing incitement and payments to terrorists.

Hamas, predictably, praised the carnage, declaring that "Resistance in all its forms is a legitimate right guaranteed by international law and humanitarian principles for peoples living under occupation."

President Isaac Herzog conveyed condolences to local leaders, while the IDF Chief of Staff conducted assessments.

This is yet another reminder—were one needed—of the persistent ideology that drives such acts: an unyielding refusal to accept Jewish sovereignty in any part of the land, coupled with a culture that too often celebrates the murderer as martyr. While the world rushes to equivocate or look away, Israelis bury their dead and carry on. 

This story remains developing.

Florida Muslim faces felony hate crime charges for trying to run over gay people

In the streets of West Palm Beach, Florida, we can see another stark reminder of the dangers that can arise when personal grievance meets perceived provocation. A 43-year-old Muslim man, Ihab Mustafa El Mahmoud, now stands accused of felony charges carrying a hate crime enhancement after allegedly attempting to mow down members of a local LGBTQ+ running group with his vehicle. 

The incident unfolded last month at Howard Park, where members of Night Runners WPB had assembled for their customary evening run. According to the West Palm Beach PD, El Mahmoud "purposely drove his car towards the victims and the group of people." What began as a fleeting exchange, a member of the group reportedly asking El Mahmoud if he was there to join the run, escalated into a terrifying episode. 

Offended by what he later described to investigators as an unwelcome advance, El Mahmoud is said to have accelerated his Ford Bronco through the parking lot, onto the sidewalk, and across the grass, making multiple passes in an evident bid to strike the runners.

Rudolph Galindo, the group's treasurer and one of those targeted, recounted experiencing "fear and terror" in the moment. “It was an experience that I have never felt before,” he told reporters. Fortunately, no one was injured, though the runners scattered in panic, seeking cover behind trees.

El Mahmoud was quickly apprehended, having attempted to remove his vehicle's license plate in a nearby garage. Initially charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and reckless driving, he was deemed "extremely dangerous" by the assistant state attorney, who noted that he “purposely drove” at the group. Bond was denied.

At least he was Islam compliant.

More recently, prosecutors have added a hate crime enhancement, alleging that El Mahmoud "perceived... Jackson's sexual orientation and intentionally selected him for the assault." Should he be convicted, this could substantially lengthen his sentence.

One is left to reflect on the fragility of civil order when individual outrage, however misplaced, manifests in such violent intent. In an era where identities are increasingly weaponized, this case serves as a grim illustration of how swiftly a minor slight can spiral into an act of targeted menace. The courts will determine guilt, but the episode underscores a broader unease: the readiness of some to translate private disgust into public peril.
