Tlaib resolution recognizes ‘ongoing nakba,’ calls for ‘right of return,’ that is, the destruction of Israel

Her mouth is cavernous 

The fact that Rashida Tlaib, an agent of the Palestinian jihad that is working for the destruction of Israel, sits as a member of the United States House of Representatives is a stark indication of how profound the rot in American politics has become, and how deeply the forces of jihad have managed to infiltrate the institutions of the republic. She does not recognize, of course, the elementary historical reality that the Arabs left Israel in 1948 because the Arab Higher Committee told them to do so.

The documentation for this is abundant and may be found in The Palestinian Delusion. Yet now she demands a so-called right of return, which this resolution explicitly includes. That would mean flooding Israel with millions of fake refugees, for under the unique and generous definitions employed by the United Nations even the children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and beyond of those who left in 1948 count as refugees. The result would be the demographic destruction of the Jewish state and its transformation into a twenty-third Arab Muslim state. This resolution is in effect a call for Congress to endorse the ideology of those who attacked the United States on 11 September 2001.

US Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) on Thursday reintroduced a congressional resolution recognizing the 78th anniversary of what she described as the “ongoing nakba,” using the Arabic term for “catastrophe” deployed by Palestinians and anti-Israel activists to refer to the establishment of the modern state of Israel in 1948. 

The real catastrophe is that the moment Israel became the Jewish State, the Islamic Middle East wanted to destroy it.

The resolution, introduced on the anniversary of Israel’s independence, accuses the Jewish state of carrying out “ethnic cleansing,” “apartheid,” and “genocide” against Palestinians, language that many pro-Israel lawmakers in Congress and advocacy groups strongly reject as inflammatory and inaccurate. Of course, those who make that claim are the perpetrators who make that blame. It seems like the world forgot what happened on October 7, 2023.

Anyway, the measure also calls for renewed US support for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), an agency that employed Hamas terrorists and for that reason has faced mounting scrutiny from Israel and several Western governments over those observations.

In a statement announcing the resolution, Tlaib argued that the so-called nakba “did not end” with the Arab-Israeli war in 1948 and continues today through Israeli military operations and settlement expansion.

“War criminal Netanyahu and his cabinet have repeatedly threatened to ethnically cleanse the entire Palestinian population in Gaza, annex the land, and permanently occupy it. Today, they are extending these same threats towards southern Lebanon,” the anti-Semite congressperson said, referring to Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and military operations against US-designated terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah. “As we mark the 78th anniversary of the Nakba, we honor all of those killed since the ethnic cleansing of Palestine began and all those who have been forced from their homes and violently displaced from their land.”

Activists often invoke the term “nakba” when discussing the displacement of some 750,000 Palestinian Arabs following Israel’s War of Independence, many of whom left the nascent state for varied reasons, including that they were encouraged by Arab leaders to flee their homes to make way for the invading Arab armies. THEY WERE ENCOURAGED TO LEAVE ISRAEL BY ARAB LEADERS.

At the same time, about 850,000 Jews were forced to flee or expelled from Middle Eastern and North African countries in the 20th century, primarily in the aftermath of Israel’s declaring independence.

Tlaib’s disgusting resolution is co-sponsored by several prominent socialists, including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY), Ilhan Omar (MN), Ayanna Pressley (MA), and Summer Lee (PA). 

The resolution also calls for a so-called Palestinian “right of return,” a demand insisting that potentially millions of descendants of Palestinian refugees should be able to return to the land of Israel, a step that, according to proponents, would result in the abolition of the world’s only Jewish state.

While refugees are generally defined as those who flee a country out of credible fear of persecution, UNRWA uniquely defines Palestinian refugees to include all descendants of those who left the land, regardless of where they were born.

Judge issues ruling on evidence in Luigi Mangione case

The New York judge in Luigi Mangione’s case issued a ruling on what evidence will be allowed in his upcoming trial.

The ruling settles the debate between the defense and prosecution about how police officers handled their search of Mangione after he was caught, according to Fox News.

Leave it to a New York judge to split the baby in the most ridiculous way possible. 

A New York judge has ruled that some key evidence seized from Luigi Mangione's backpack during his arrest at a Pennsylvania McDonald's is inadmissible at trial, while some of it can still be shown to jurors, including the suspected murder weapon.

Judge Gregory Carro's written ruling was posted online ahead of a hearing Monday morning. He agreed with the defense argument that a search of Mangione's backpack at McDonald's was unconstitutional because it had been moved away from arm's reach, however, he found that a subsequent search of the bag at the police station was lawful. During that search, an officer found the handgun allegedly used in the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, 50. He also found that most of Mangione's statements to police in Pennsylvania would be admissible, except for some made about his alleged fake ID after police read him his Miranda warning.

A different judge, overseeing his separate federal case, has already rejected the defense team's argument that the search was improper, and the evidence will be part of his federal trial.

It includes the alleged murder weapon, a 3D-printed silencer, the fake ID used to check into a Manhattan hostel and journals purported to rail against the health insurance industry. 

Mangione is facing trial for the cowardly, fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December 2024. The shooting sparked a manhunt that ended with Mangione’s arrest days later.After they caught up with the defendant, police searched through his backpack before obtaining a warrant. Prosecutors argued the search was legal because officers arrested him after he used false identification. They said the officers needed to make sure the bag did not contain any dangerous material before taking him into custody.

The judge set Mangione’s state murder trial for June 8. However, Mangione’s lawyers argued that this timeframe would force him to face the state and federal trials within a short period of time, like the time he allegedly took away from Brian Thompson, a husband to Paulette "Pauley" Thompson, and a father of two boys.

NBC News reported that federal prosecutors said they would not appeal a ruling that removes the death penalty as a possible punishment.

Mangione pleaded not guilty to all charges in spite of the video evidence to the contrary.

Mamdani is to Reagan as AOC is to Einstein

Leave it to the New York comrade mayor Zohran Mamdani to lecture Americans on hardship while taking aim at one of the most popular and economically successful presidents in history.

During a Monday press conference, Mamdani mockingly referenced former President Ronald Reagan’s iconic 1986 quip: “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’”

Mamdani, who never ran a real business and is a failed rapper, thought of himself as a master of rhetoric. The dolt replied: “I think nine more terrifying words are actually ‘I worked all day and can’t feed my family.’”

It is a fantasy line, but is completely a figment of his tiny imagination. 

Mamdani is attacking Ronald Reagan, a man whose conservative policies actually rescued the American worker, all while Mamdani practices a brand of fiscal theft today that guarantees future generations will pay the price tomorrow. If you don't believe that, ask the Teachers Union and the veterans from whom he stole money from their retirement funds and military parade funds, respectively.

Let us look at the facts. 

When Reagan took office in 1981, the American economy was being suffocated by Carter-era stagflation, a toxic mix of double-digit inflation and high unemployment. Reagan did not use big-government handouts; he crushed inflation from 13.5 percent down to 4.1 percent. He slashed the astronomical 21.5 percent prime interest rate in half, sparked a 92-month peacetime economic expansion, and oversaw the creation of over 16 million new jobs.

Reagan’s supply-side miracle did not simply help the wealthy; it lifted everyone. Real median family income rose by 12.6 percent, and poverty rates plummeted. Minority communities thrived, with black unemployment at a near all-time low and black-owned businesses expanding by nearly 38 percent.

Aside from bashing Israel, what has Mamdani actually done?

Reagan knew that the American taxpayer did not exist to fund bureaucratic overreach. As he noted in his 1980 GOP acceptance speech, any program representing a theft from their pocketbooks had to go.

Contrast that economic boom with Mamdani’s current high-wire balancing act in New York City. He recently took a rooftop victory lap, boasting that he magically closed a 12 billion dollar budget deficit without resorting to austerity. But take a look under the hood and see that Mamdani’s solution is just a massive shell game of short-term gimmicks and fiscal procrastination.

To patch the hole for fiscal year 2027, the socialist mayor relies on roughly 2.8 billion dollars in one-time measures. He is implementing a punitive pied-a-terre tax and clawing back unincorporated business tax credits that hit self-employed New Yorkers making as little as 142,000 dollars, giving productive citizens an explicit incentive to flee the city. Worse yet, he is extending the amortization period for unfunded pension liabilities, pushing hundreds of millions in city obligations well into the 2030s.

By kicking the pension can down the road and relying on temporary state aid infusions from Albany, Mamdani is not saving New York; he is merely loading up a fiscal time bomb. Fiscal experts note that these gimmicks leave the city dangerously exposed to massive multi-billion-dollar deficits in the years ahead, topping out at an estimated 9.8 billion dollars by 2030. 

Mamdani wants to pretend that he's the champion of the working class. In reality, Reagan’s free-market policies allowed families to feed themselves through dignity and work. Mamdani’s progressive playbook simply steals financial stability from the future to fund big-government hubris today.

And for the bonus round, he and his wife are full-blown anti-Semites.

San Diego Sunni Mosque shooting: both shooting suspects deader than the Ayatollah

San Diego Police rolled out Monday afternoon after reports of an active shooter at the Islamic Center of San Diego. That kicked off a massive law enforcement response and evacuations around the mosque.

The San Diego Police Department said officers were on scene at the Islamic Center in the 7000 block of Eckstrom Avenue and told everyone to stay the hell away while they locked the place down.

Police Chief Scott Wahl said Monday that both suspects involved in the shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego are dead and that all children connected to nearby schools are safe.

Wahl said police received the initial call reporting an active shooter at 11:43 a.m. Officers arrived within four minutes and immediately encountered what appeared to be three deceased victims outside the mosque.

As officers set up a SWAT response for a nearby school campus, they also got reports of gunfire a couple blocks away. That brought more cops rushing to a second scene at the same time.

At least three adult victims, including a security guard, were killed following an active shooter incident near the Islamic Center of San Diego in the Clairemont area on Monday.

The security guard shot to death “played a pivotal role” in stopping more casualties, San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said at a press conference.

Police confirmed two male suspects, aged 17 and 19, died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds.On Monday, the San Diego Police Department said officers responded to the center located at 7050 Eckstrom Avenue following reports of gunfire.

“The threat at the Islamic center has been neutralized,” the police department said on social media. “Media staging has been established as the Northwest Corner of Lindbergh Park.”

An eyewitness told CBS he called 911 after hearing what he believed were about 30 gunshots.“We were concerned and putting out heads down inside the house,” the man said to a local reporter.

Former Ass't Principal In Deep Doo Doo re: 6-Year-Old Who Shot His Teacher

A former assistant principal at the school where a six-year-old shot his teacher is now headed to trial for her stunning failure to act before the nightmare unfolded.

Ebony Parker faces trial in Newport News, Virginia. She stands accused of blowing off multiple warnings that a six-year-old student had brought a loaded firearm to Richneck Elementary School in January 2023, right before he shot his first-grade teacher, Abby Zwerner.

Prosecutors hit Parker with eight counts of felony child neglect, one for each bullet in the gun the kid carried into the building. If convicted, she could spend up to five years behind bars.

Court documents charge that Parker “did commit a willful act or omission in the care of such students, in a manner so gross, wanton and culpable as to show a reckless disregard for human life.”

Cases like this, where school officials actually face criminal charges after a shooting, remain incredibly rare. But this one exploded into the national spotlight, as Americans rightly demanded answers for how a first-grader managed to sneak a gun into school without anyone stopping him.

Zwerner, who survived the horror, sued the Newport News public school system. She accused Parker of ignoring repeated alerts that the boy was armed. Zwerner is also expected to take the stand in the criminal case against her former boss.

The shooting happened while Zwerner was seated at a reading table. The boy had taken his mother’s 9mm pistol from home, stuffed it in his backpack, and opened fire. One round struck the teacher in the hand and chest. She spent nearly two weeks in the hospital, endured six surgeries, and still has the bullet lodged in her chest. Despite everything, she managed to get her students to safety before collapsing.

A jury later awarded Zwerner $10 million. The lawsuit laid out how Parker had a clear duty to protect her and the rest of the school after multiple staff members reported the student had a gun in his backpack.

The boy’s mother has already been locked up for nearly four years after pleading guilty to felony child neglect and federal weapons charges.

Navy jets crash midair as crews punch out successfully at Idaho military base air show

Two U.S. Navy EA-18G Growler jets collided midair during the second day of the Gunfighter Skies Air Show at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho on Sunday. All four crew members successfully ejected. The U.S. Navy confirmed it to Fox News Digital.

Cmdr. Amelia Umayam, a spokesperson for Naval Air Forces, U.S. Pacific Fleet, said the two aircraft were assigned to Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 129 out of Whidbey Island, Washington.

The midair crash happened at about 12:10 p.m. MDT while the aircraft were performing an aerial demonstration during the air show, Umayam said.

Umayam said all four air crew members successfully ejected and were being evaluated by medical personnel while first responders remained at the scene. It's a miracle.

Dramatic video posted to social media appears to show two jets colliding midair before four parachutes deploy. The aircraft then fall to the ground before exploding, sending thick black smoke billowing into the air.

In a statement posted to Facebook earlier in the day, Mountain Home Gunfighters said "an aircraft incident has occurred at Mountain Home Air Force Base during the Gunfighter Skies Air Show two miles northwest of the base."

"Emergency responders are on the scene, an investigation is underway and more details will be released as they become available," the statement added.

(Benjamin Katz)David Katz, who attended the air show with his family, told Fox News Digital he witnessed what appeared to be the two aircraft colliding before one started to catch fire.

"We saw the smoke and fireball," Katz said. "Apparently they collided there. One of the planes was impacted and started burning in the air."

Katz said he was in a vehicle with his two sons when they saw four parachutes deploy from the aircraft. Two from each plane.

"Fire crews are flying by us right now," Katz told Fox News Digital.

KTVB reported that witnesses described seeing two jets crash during the show and shared videos showing a large plume of black smoke rising near the base. The station also reported that law enforcement and emergency crews responded to the scene while officials worked to gather more information.

The EA-18G Growler is an electronic warfare aircraft in the F/A-18 Super Hornet family designed to conduct airborne electronic attack missions for the Navy.

Hamassholes end in clusterfrack without leader elected

Those lovable scamps at Hamas couldn’t even pull off a basic leadership election, the terror group announced on Saturday night, while promising another round of this clown show would be coming soon. Maybe they're not ready to meet their goats.

The current farce will likely come down to either Hamas bigwig abroad Khaled Mashal or senior Hamas politician Khalil al-Hayya as the next genius in charge of the outfit.

This spectacular failure comes as the bloodthirsty death cult tries to slap some semblance of order back together after Israel turned much of its senior leadership into fine pink mist during the latest war. Since Yahya Sinwar got himself dramatically un-alived in October 2024, the organization’s political wing has been running around like a headless chicken with no permanent boss.

He died with a stick in his hand

Hamas media advisor Taher al-Nunu told Al Jazeera that Israeli assassinations had forced the group to restructure, and relevant vacancies would be filled according to the "consultative mechanism and silent elections.”

"The nature of elections within Hamas is not based on individual candidacy, but rather all members of the council concerned are considered candidates, while the final decision rests with the will of the voters," he said, adding that multiple leadership positions have already been decided and will soon be announced by the relevant persons.

Hayya, who’s been safely camped out in Qatar, was the guy responsible for “negotiating” the ceasefire and hostage releases after Hamas’s October 7, 2023, murder spree that kicked off the two-year war. He also reportedly had a close relationship with Sinwar. Having lost multiple sons in the recent unpleasantness, Arab supporters are apparently swooning over him as their favorite.

Nothing says “legitimate resistance movement” like a bunch of Qatar-funded terrorists playing musical chairs while the body count piles up. Classic Hamas.

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin Celebrates As Trump Declares Victory Over The Climate Apocalypse That Was Totally Going To Kill Us All, Probably

Lee Zelding and President Trump

WASHINGTON—In a stunning development that has coastal elites reaching for their reusable straws and therapy dogs, President Donald Trump took a victory lap Saturday after scientists quietly admitted that one of their favorite doomsday global warming scenarios was about as accurate as a Hillary Clinton email server.

"Good riddance! After 15 years of Dumocrats promising that 'Climate Change' is going to destroy the Planet, the United Nations TOP Climate Committee just admitted that its own projections (RCP8.5) were WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!" Trump wrote on Truth Social. 

The president accused Democrats of using climate fears the way a used car salesman uses "low mileage" to scare people into buying something expensive and unreliable.

"For far too long Climate Activism has been used by Dumocrats to scare Americans, push horrible Energy Polices, and fund BILLIONS into their bogus research programs," he continued. "Unlike the Dumocrats, who use Climate Alarmism nonsense to push their GREEN NEW SCAM, my Administration will always be based on TRUTH, SCIENCE, and FACT!"

Trump’s comments came after climate scientists finally started phasing out the IPCC’s most extreme emissions fairy tale, the one that predicted cities underwater, crops failing like a vegan barbecue, and basically a real-life dinosaur extinction event but with more Priuses. The scenario, known as RCP8.5 (or SSP5-8.5 for those who like their acronyms extra spicy), assumed humanity would keep burning coal like it was going out of style while ignoring every trend toward cheaper renewables and actual emissions data.

Researchers, writing in a journal that sounds like it was named by a thesaurus, basically said: "Yeah, this high-end nightmare fuel is now implausible."

"For the 21st century, this range will be smaller than assessed before: on the high-end of the range, the high emission levels (quantified by SSP5-8.5) have become implausible, based on trends in the costs of renewables, the emergence of climate policy and recent emission trends."This comes after Trump called climate change "the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world" at the U.N. last September.

"It's the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world, in my opinion," Trump said at the time. "All of these predictions made by the United Nations and many others, often for bad reasons, were wrong."

"They were made by stupid people that have cost their country's fortunes and given those same countries no chance for success," he continued.

Naturally, this triggered the usual suspects. 

Former Secretary of State and failed presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, emerged from whatever wine cellar she was haunting to denounce the remarks as "total disinformation."

"You know yesterday at the U.N., President Trump said, ‘Climate change is a hoax,’ because it’s just total disinformation," Killery said during the Clinton Global Initiative in New York. "It’s a statement that is just not true, and yet being propagated."

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, however, backed the president. 

"The president is absolutely right and we've seen it in the name of climate change, these left wing policies willing to cause extreme economic pain for people who can at least afford it," Zeldin said.

Sources close to the climate cult confirmed they are now working on a brand new, even scarier model that will definitely be right this time, guys. Just trust the science. 

And remember to recycle your guilt.
