FL Gov. DeSantis officially designates Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR and Antifa as terror groups

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, obviously a Republican, has apparently decided that Florida’s terrorist-designation process needed a little more honesty.

DeSantis officially designated the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and Antifa as terror groups, based on their support and involvement with terrorists. This is creating the awkward possibility that some organizations long treated as perfectly respectable fixtures of American political life might suddenly have to explain why they are being treated like terrorist organizations.

This creates an interesting situation.

If these designations have any teeth, they will raise questions regarding how these organizations, particularly the Hamas-linked CAIR, are regarded nationwide. Will CAIR-Florida have to shut down? CAIR wields enormous influence among clueless and compromised politicians nationwide, as they court Muslim votes.

That could make the next fundraising dinner considerably more interesting.

Will politicians in other states think twice about appearing at Hamas-linked CAIR events since it is designated a terror organization in Florida? Or will they simply continue showing up, smiling for photographs and explaining that they are there to promote "dialogue" while pretending nobody noticed the giant terrorist-designation elephant sitting at the table?

The latter is much more likely.

After all, Washington and state capitals have spent years perfecting the art of discovering that an organization is deeply troubling only after it becomes politically inconvenient to pretend otherwise.

Of course, there is another possibility.

Once DeSantis is out of office and the Democrats are back in charge, watch for them to lift these designations and turn around and designate some patriotic groups as terror organizations.

At that point, Florida may discover that the state's definition of "terrorist" changes rather dramatically depending on which party occupies the governor's mansion.

The real question, however, is what practical difference these designations will make.

A terrorist designation that produces no meaningful consequences is ultimately little more than an official government document informing everyone that something is bad while everyone continues doing exactly what they were doing before.

Still, it is a start.

Florida has at least put the names on the board.

Now we get to see whether anyone is actually willing to enforce the rules.

Comrade Mamdani's Tax Hike Just Got Rule On By A Judge

So it looks like a New York judge has intervened in comrade Mamdani's bid to tax folks on their second home, mostly because it's illegal.

In a devastating blow to the glorious Marxist dream of government-mandated equality, Staten Island Judge Wayne Ozzi has ordered New York City’s race-communist mayor Zohran Mamdani to halt his latest attempt to seize wealth from anyone who dares own property, not including himself or his family.

The judicial ruling forced the Mamdani administration to walk back its plan to slap a massive tax hike on homes worth more than $5 million. Judge Ozzi sided with local homeowners who challenged the policy, politely informing the mayor that he cannot simply invent massive financial penalties out of thin air and must actually follow basic legal procedure before punishing success.

According to court filings, city officials failed to perform even the bare minimum due diligence before mailing out roughly 17,000 tax notices to citizens standardly targeted for possessing excess bourgeois comfort.

Judge Ozzi also issued a firm reprimand after the administration released a public registry listing 900,000 additional homes and their owners, effectively publishing a city-sponsored target list of citizens who might be subjected to future state-sanctioned extortion. 

Doxxing much?

The judge ordered the list scrubbed immediately, frustrating city planners who had hoped to crowdsource the struggle against private ownership.

“We’re gratified that the court has recognized we were right all along. The fact is that this administration failed to follow state law when it burdened New York City homeowners with proving they live in their own homes or be on the hook for paying a new surcharge,” Randy Mastro, the attorney representing the homeowners said, according to the  Communist News Network (CNN).

Refusing to let minor details like statutory law interfere with redistribution, a spokesman for Mamdani, with the legal understanding of a goldfish, called the ruling “wrong” and insisted the administration “will not back down” in its heroic quest to raise taxes until everyone in the city is equally poor. 

At press time, city hall aides were reportedly researching whether state judges could themselves be classified as second homes and taxed out of existence.

California Officially Adds Festival of Ritual Livestock Sacrifice to Growing List of State-Approved Holy Days

AI Generated 

SACRAMENTO — In a historic step toward making sure no government employee ever has to pick between a paycheck and a ceremonial goat, California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed legislation Monday recognizing Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha in state law. California is now only the second state to treat the Islamic holy days as official observances, trailing Washington, which got there first in 2025 and is presumably already printing the commemorative coloring sheets.

Eid al-Adha, or the “Festival of the Sacrifice,” traditionally involves the ritual slaughter of livestock, typically a sheep, goat, cow, or camel, in commemoration of Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son. However, if Israelis are available, there's no telling what will happen.

Eid al-Fitr, the “Festival of Breaking the Fast,” marks the end of Ramadan, the holiest month of the Islamic calendar and the start of a new warring season. State officials stressed that the new law does not require anyone to bring a camel to the capitol rotunda, though they also did not explicitly forbid it.

Assembly Bill 2017, authored by Assemblyman Matt Haney (D-San Francisco) and co-authored by state Sen. Aisha Wahab (D-Hayward), allows state and school employees to use existing personal holiday credit or leave time to observe Eid. It also authorizes K-12 schools and community colleges to close for the holidays through locally negotiated agreements, which is Sacramento’s way of saying the district can cancel class if the union and the principal can agree on whose turn it is to be culturally sensitive.

“California is home to one of the largest and most vibrant Muslim communities in the country,” Haney previously said. “No student should have to choose between celebrating one of the holiest days of their faith and showing up to school, and no worker should feel they have to sacrifice their religious observance.”

The bill was co-sponsored by the California chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-CA). In 2007, federal prosecutors named CAIR an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terror-financing case. CAIR was never charged and has denied wrongdoing, but that's just good ole taqiyya. 

A federal judge later ruled the government should not have publicly listed the group, but found “ample evidence to establish the associations” of CAIR with the Holy Land Foundation and Hamas. Lawmakers apparently decided that was enough of a resume to help write state holiday policy.

“We commend Gov. Newsom for signing AB 2017 and sending a powerful message that amid growing hostility, California stands firmly with its Muslim community,” CAIR-CA CEO Hussam Ayloush said in a statement. “Together, we’ve achieved a historic win for California Muslims.”

In an article that media outlet The Daily Wire previously reported, the bill cleared the state Assembly by a 64-1 vote in May, which in California politics is the closest thing to a unanimous ovation short of a resolution praising kale. The legislation drew opposition over a provision authorizing the State Board of Education to develop optional curriculum for classroom activities marking the holidays, a phrase that has never once produced a worksheet anyone would describe as optional.

Greg Burt, vice president of the California Family Council, argued the measure crossed the line from teaching about religion to promoting it. He told Fox News Digital it amounted to schools “encouraging the celebration of a religious holiday.” The council, which says it represents more than 2,000 churches statewide, also questioned where the state would draw the line on recognizing additional religious holidays. 

Sacramento’s unofficial answer appears to be: keep going until the school calendar looks like a United Nations buffet.

The two Islamic holidays join Diwali and Lunar New Year among community-specific observances California has formally recognized in recent years. Officials have not yet announced which animal, lamp, or dragon will be featured in next year’s inclusivity packet, but sources say the State Board of Education is already workshopping discussion questions that carefully avoid asking why some holidays get lesson plans and others get a polite nod and a substitute teacher.

Mazel tov.

Illegal Alien Allegedly Attempts To Outrun ICE, Then Discovers Federal Government Has Vehicles Too

Federal prosecutors on Monday charged an illegal alien who was shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent after allegedly turning a routine immigration arrest into an impromptu demolition derby.

Venezuelan national Wilber Rafael Garces-Perez, 28, was charged with one count of assaulting, resisting and impeding a federal officer after he allegedly struck an ICE officer with his car’s side-view mirror while fleeing.

The incident began September 20 in Austin, Texas, when ICE officers pulled Garces-Perez over after determining that he had a deportation order and there were no Democrats to hide him.

This was apparently the moment when things could have remained extremely boring.

Garces-Perez handed the officers his driver’s license, which they used to verify his identity. The officers then asked him to put the car in park and step outside.

Instead, after approximately a minute of conversation in Spanish, Garces-Perez allegedly “abruptly closed the window and drove off.”

According to the Justice Department, he allegedly struck an ICE officer in the torso with the driver’s side-view mirror while making his escape.

At some point, the situation apparently graduated from immigration enforcement to the sort of event that causes police departments to start requesting helicopters.

Garces-Perez allegedly led officers on a high-speed vehicle chase. Hopefully it will eventually make its way to YouTube for our entertainment appetite.

During the pursuit, one officer lost sight of both Garces-Perez and his partner. Minutes later, the officer's partner called to report that Garces-Perez had allegedly tried to hit him with his vehicle and that he had fired his pistol.

Garces-Perez was shot.

The complaint confirms that the ICE officer who fired the shot was not wearing a body camera, ensuring that an already complicated incident could now become an even more spectacular argument on social media.

Naturally, anti-ICE protesters soon took to the streets of Austin to denounce what they described as an unprovoked attack.

The protesters were apparently not impressed by the inconvenient details involving a deportation order, an alleged attempt to flee, a high-speed chase and a vehicle allegedly being used against an ICE officer.

Those details remain under investigation, where they will presumably receive considerably less attention than the outrage generated by the shooting.

Garces-Perez later said ICE detained him with a bullet still lodged near his spine, according to The Texas Tribune. He said medical staff told him they would not remove the bullet because of its proximity to his spine.

Calling into a news conference from detention, Garces-Perez offered a very different version of events.

He claimed an unmarked SUV sideswiped him twice before he realized that ICE officers were attempting to pull him over. The Venezuelan national said he made a U-turn under a freeway underpass when the SUV struck his car and that only then did the unmarked SUVs activate their emergency lights and sirens.

There is also the curious matter of why ICE was interested in him to begin with.

Garces-Perez had previously failed to appear for an immigration hearing at which a judge ordered his deportation, according to The Texas Tribune.

His immigration lawyer, Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch, offered an explanation for the missed hearing.

“I’ve been an immigration lawyer for 20 years, doing removal defense cases, like thousands of cases in the immigration court system. This is a very common outcome that the immigration court does not properly update people’s addresses,” she said. “The person doesn’t arrive, and they order them deported in absentia. I would say, maybe daily in my law practice, we see this happen.”

So, according to the defense account, the immigration system sent the notice to the wrong address.

Then ICE eventually found him.

Then officers allegedly asked him to get out of his vehicle.

Then he allegedly drove away.

Then an officer was allegedly struck by the vehicle.

Then there was a high-speed chase.

Then a gun was fired.

Then Garces-Perez was shot.

And then protesters took to the streets to explain why the entire thing was apparently the fault of ICE.

The legal system will now sort through the competing accounts and determine what actually happened.

Garces-Perez could face up to two decades behind bars if convicted.

For now, one lesson appears to be emerging from the case: when federal immigration officers inform you that they have located you and would like you to step out of your vehicle, attempting to turn the encounter into a high-speed chase may result in the federal government becoming considerably more interested in your whereabouts.

Holy Moley Batman: Tampon Tim's State Exposes Huge Fraud Risk re: George Floyd Activism

MINNEAPOLIS, MN—In a shocking development that has left local officials deeply bewildered, a new audit reveals that handing out tens of millions of dollars to unvetted groups with zero receipts might carry a slight risk of fraud.

The city of Minneapolis, operating under the watchful eye of Governor 'Tampon' Tim Walz, spent the last five years quietly distributing over $36 million in post-2020 violence-prevention contracts. To the complete astonishment of city hall, auditors discovered that lo and behold,  handing piles of cash to random organizations might require occasionally checking if those organizations exist.

According to the new Neighborhood Safety Contract Management Audit Report, the city suffered from a minor breakdown in basic accounting, regularly paying out invoices that contained almost no supporting documentation. City workers were apparently far too busy saving the world to conduct pesky site visits, ensuring the money flowed completely unimpeded by reality.

Center of the American Experiment policy fellow Bill Glahn expressed profound lack of surprise at the findings.

"Based on my past reporting on this and other city grant programs, any diligent audit of any city-administered grant programs would produce similar results," Glahn said.

Glahn previously pointed out that the city committed up to $7.5 million to its violence-interrupter program while forgetting to check if violent crime was actually decreasing. Furthermore, several grant recipients possessed financial records smaller than a lemonade stand, with one group's "interrupters" eventually caught on video violently beating a homeless man outside a grocery store.

"The city seems primarily interested in shoveling money out the door to ‘address’ urgent problems," Glahn added. "Little if any care is given to ensuring that the grant recipients are capable of or have a track record of doing the work, are actually doing the work contracted for, or whether that work is resulting in net benefit for city residents and taxpayers."

The state of Minnesota has spent recent years pioneering this revolutionary approach to government oversight, famously failing to notice that its Feeding Our Future program was reimbursing nonexistent operations serving thousands of imaginary meals out of empty apartments and city parks.

"If they would have just gone to the facilities, you know, you hear of the thousands of people being served out of an apartment twice a day, all they would have to do is show up and look at it," Minnesota Republican state Sen. Mark Koran noted. 

Gee, what a unique idea.

"There was a legislative auditor report that showed that 30 property owners where these businesses claim to operate out of, contacted the Department of Education who manage it, who managed that program, and they told them one, the businesses don't exist in their facilities, so they don't exist, period, and one of them I think was a city park," Koran said.

Glahn added that while physical site visits are helpful, "even a cursory, front-end review of tax records and financial statements would have disqualified many of these vendors from the get-go."

George Floyd and the Thug Life

"We have not slowed down, there is no sense in which the fraud has been stopped in Minnesota," Glahn said.

While auditors stopped short of declaring specific instances of fraud in this particular report, observers online proved far less eager to extend benefit of the doubt to a government that treats taxpayer funds like confetti.

"Call it what it is," retired Navy intelligence officer Phillip C. Parrish posted on X. "This isn’t a tracking glitch. It’s the same business model that looted child-nutrition money, Medicaid housing, autism therapy, and daycare: stand up a moral emergency, pour cash through politically connected nonprofits, skip site visits and receipts, then scream 'livelihoods' when anyone asks where the money went."

Undeterred by the audit, city officials insisted everything is going according to plan. If you believe that, you might also believe one day AI will kill a billion people as per Bill Gates.   

"We appreciate the support of the auditor to make thoughtful, strategic recommendations to improve our department. In fact, the auditor expanded the scope of the report to be more thorough and holistic," a Minneapolis city spokesperson said.

"The Neighborhood Safety Department has a lot to be proud of. Our work is meaningful, and every day we’re working to make our City safer through innovative safety services, like violence prevention and human trafficking prevention, among others. We’ve taken several steps since the audit report to improve our processes and contract oversight. We are in the business of helping people and improving lives – and that means improving how we do it. It’s that simple."

At this time, Minnesota officials announced plans to launch a new $50 million grant program aimed at auditing where the previous $36 million went, awarded directly to an unverified non-profit operating out of a local Wendy's dumpster.

New film reveals previously undisclosed details of Mossad's Hezbollah pager operation

Men carry a coffin as they walk past images of Mohammad Mahdi Ammar, son of Hezbollah member of the Lebanese parliament Ali Ammar, and Abbas Fadel Yassin, who were killed amid the detonation of pagers across Lebanon, during their funeral in Beirut, Lebanon September 18, 2024.

Eighteen months after Mossad pulled off history’s most chaotic telecommunications upgrade, Israeli censors finally gave filmmakers permission to spill the beans.

A new documentary titled Paging Hezbollah, directed by Justin Polk, dives deep into the 2024 operation that turned roughly 3,500 Hezbollah operatives into unwilling participants in a very loud, very sudden gadget recall.

The film traces how Israel pulled off the ultimate supply-chain prank, engineering, marketing, and smuggling retro Beeper tech directly into the hands of a terrorist organization that genuinely believed it was getting a secure deal. Years of meticulous planning went into making sure Hezbollah stayed convinced these little plastic boxes were totally safe right up until the exact moment they weren't.

Naturally, maintaining top-tier customer service required some extreme measures. When one overly curious Hezbollah member started poking around the pagers with a suspicious eye, Israeli intelligence promptly eliminated him. To keep the secret safe, they tagged a nearby individual as the primary target and chalked the suspicious guy up as mere "collateral damage."

When a panicky Iran tried to send over a high-tech X-ray machine to scan the devices for explosives, Israel simply blew up the scanner too, cleverly pretending they were aiming at something else entirely.

Former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant spilled the rest of the logistical tea in an N12 interview that was locked in a censor’s vault until now.

“In the first week of August, we discovered that there was someone who suspected the pagers,” Gallant told N12. “I do not really want to get into the details, but look at the list of those eliminated, because we eliminated him, alongside someone else, under various pretexts. Later, we discovered that inspection devices were arriving that were supposed to examine these pagers, and we eliminated them along with additional things.”

Gallant explained that paranoia eventually forced their hand. "In the middle of the operation, it turned out that somewhere, the pagers were being inspected," he continued. "The result is that you find yourself in a position where you either have to act or risk being exposed, and that could happen very quickly. There's only one question on the table: if you try to play around with it somehow, maybe you'll end up carrying out the full operation, starting with the radios and so on."

Slated for release on October 30, the documentary features interviews with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Mossad chief David Barnea, and Northern Command chief Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin.

Netanyahu actually leaked a few of these plot points early during a conference speech in April 2025, back when the details were still officially top secret.

“In the third week of September, we learned that Hezbollah had sent three pagers to Iran for scanning,” Netanyahu revealed, as reported by N12 and Ynet. “Before that, we bombed such a scanner that they were about to bring; we got rid of it and also of the person operating it.”

Holdout juror on Clancy case drops legal bombshell

Holdout Juror’s Lawyer Files Bar Complaint After Defense Attorney Treats “Following The Evidence” Like A Capital Offense

The attorney for the lone holdout juror in Lindsay Clancy’s mistrial has accused defense lawyer Kevin Reddington of unconstitutional overreach and announced plans to file a bar complaint, because apparently the Sixth Amendment is now optional if the verdict isn’t cute enough.

Reddington has spent the days since the September 4 mistrial attacking Michael Péguy Desronvil, the juror who declined to declare Clancy not guilty by reason of insanity. Reddington branded him an “obstructionist juror” who refused to follow the law. Desronvil has declined to recant.

Edward Paltzik, Desronvil’s attorney, said Reddington created a “nightmarish precedent” by accusing his client of breaking the law based mostly on what other jurors who wanted a different outcome claimed happened in the jury room. Desronvil rejects that account. He has said he has no doubts about Clancy’s guilt based on the evidence and simply refused to fold under pressure from fellow jurors.

“If the new normal is that jurors are going to face brutal reprisals for disagreeing with a defense attorney, you can kiss the Sixth Amendment goodbye,” Paltzik wrote in a post on X.

“That is the most outrageous thing I have ever heard in almost 20 years of practicing law. It is categorically false,” he said about the claim that Desronvil broke the law.

“You can’t investigate a juror because the juror followed the law and the evidence and came to a different conclusion than the one that you wanted, Kevin Reddington,” Paltzik added.

Reddington has asked Judge William Sullivan for permission to inspect Desronvil’s phone records, courthouse surveillance footage, juror questionnaire, probation records, and any entries in the state’s domestic violence registry. Because nothing says “I respect the jury system” like a post-trial fishing expedition into a citizen who voted the wrong way.

Paltzik, who has nearly 20 years of experience as a defense lawyer, said he would never publicly criticize a juror or file a post-trial motion seeking to investigate one. “Kevin Reddington was doing his job but the problem is it’s off the rails now,” Paltzik said.

“Kevin Reddington wanted this for his legacy,” he added. “He wanted so desperately to win this trial.”

Legal analyst and law professor Jonathan Turley has also called the request for phone records, surveillance footage, and criminal history “highly unusual,” warning that publicly attacking a juror and then trying to investigate him could send a “chilling” message to anyone asked to serve in a high-profile case.

Sources first told TMZ on September 24 that Desronvil and his legal team planned to seek discipline against Reddington, arguing he should be “suspended, disciplined, or even disbarred” for targeting the juror after the mistrial. Paltzik confirmed the planned complaint on Monday.

Clancy has admitted killing her three children, Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, in January 2023 by strangling them with exercise bands after sending her husband, Patrick, out on two errands. She pleaded not guilty and claimed postpartum psychosis made her not criminally responsible. One juror looked at the evidence, declined to play along, and is now the one being treated like the defendant.

UK Police Assure Public That Men Who Allegedly Tried To Blow Up Air Base Are As British As Tea, Biscuits, And London-Based Foreign Proxies

LONDON — British Counter Terrorism Police [aka British Terrorist Editorial Brigade] put the nation’s minds at ease Monday morning by confirming that five men arrested outside a military base with a van full of explosives were thoroughly, indisputably as British as spotted dick.

Authorities released a meticulously non-descriptive profile of the suspects, confirming only that they hold British passports, live in London, and definitely enjoy standard British activities like standing near military installations in dark hoodies at 1:30 a.m. contemplating their navels.

Officials quickly released the suspects on bail, reassuring the public that while trying to blow up an air base is frowned upon, keeping people in custody without first issuing a formal apology for misgendering their motives would violate core British values.

According to police spokespersons, the men hail from the culturally vibrant and diverse neighborhoods of Camden, Willesden, and Westminster—areas world-renowned for their traditional English heritage, their Allahu Akbars of rich history, and total absence of native white Britons.

"We want to reassure the public that these fine, outstanding British gentlemen are simply passionate enthusiasts of high-explosive chemistry," said Assistant Commissioner Laurence Taylor outside Scotland Yard. Taylor cautioned that while the investigation is ongoing, releasing five alleged bomb-plotters back onto the street was the only polite thing to do. "It would be thoroughly un-British to jump to conclusions just because they were spotted lurking in a field near a strategic NATO air base."

When asked by reporters why the suspects' physical descriptions, names, or backgrounds were omitted, officials explained that revealing such details could accidentally lead to accurate descriptions, which is strictly prohibited under current UK civil service guidelines.

The plot was reportedly foiled not by Britain's elite intelligence apparatus, but by a local farmer who noticed three vans parked in a "weird formation" and made the tragic inconsiderate social faux pas of calling the police.

“I saw a group of Middle Eastern-looking young guys running off through the trees. Some of them had masks or balaclavas on, and they all scattered ahead of us as we drove back past… Some of them ran into the fields, and some of them turned to run towards the air base. We realized this was something pretty serious,” the farmer told reporters, narrowly avoiding an arrest herself for making culturally insensitive observations about night-time field usage.

“I still can’t process how that base, on high alert, how this has happened… I think it was pure luck that I arrived in the village at a similar time to the vans,” she added. “I’m absolutely staggered that it was left to me, as a member of the public, to see and report this.”

The UK government immediately moved to counter the dangerous narrative that a regular citizen had done the job of the security services. Defense Secretary Wes Streeting appeared on television to clarify that the farmer possessed an unhelpful, accurate view of the situation.

“I do want to thank the member of the public who acted quickly and called this in,” Streeting said. “I would also just say, respectfully, that she has a partial picture… And I won’t go beyond that, in terms of commenting on operational security matters.”

The government assured citizens that the situation was entirely under control, noting that Prime Minister Andy Burnham was convening an emergency meeting to address the critical shortage of diversity consultants assigned to counter-terrorism units.

“I want to thank the police, the Gloucestershire Police, the security services, the emergency services, the public who alerted us, so thank you to everybody for the way that they’ve worked,” the prime minister said.

At publishing time, police confirmed that if any member of the public attempts to guess the suspects' surnames on social media, they will be tracked down and jailed immediately for hate speech.

Prostitution is all over the streets of Mamdani's New York City

A Shi'a mut'ah marriage (Arabic: nikāḥ al-mutʿah, literally meaning "pleasure marriage" or "temporary marriage"; in Iran, known as sigheh) is a fixed-term, contractual marriage practiced primarily within Twelver Shi'a jurisprudence.

Unlike permanent Islamic marriage (nikāḥ), which is intended to last indefinitely, a mut'ah union is established for a pre-agreed length of time, usually just a few days in order to legalize prostitution.

NEW YORK, NY — City officials are celebrating another resounding success for progressive governance today as New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s vision of a vibrant, unregulated free market flourishes along Queens’ iconic Roosevelt Avenue.

According to recent NYPD figures, prostitution-related arrests along the stretch famously known as the “Market of Sweethearts” have plummeted nearly 59%, down to a modest 193 arrests compared to 468 during the exact same period last year.

Local consumers have praised the administration's hands-off economic policies. A 40-year-old Manhattan resident identified only as John expressed deep gratitude to City Hall, telling reporters he gladly rides the subway out to the corridor because prices are low and police are completely powerless to interrupt his transactional romance.

The economic boom follows the repeal of state laws prohibiting loitering for prostitution, alongside Mamdani's enthusiastic support for legislation like Cecilia’s Law to fully decriminalize adult sex work.

While former Mayor Eric Adams briefly threatened the thriving street economy with Operation Restore Roosevelt—a enforcement crackdown that saw arrests surge by 477.8%—Mamdani has boldly restored Mayor Bill de Blasio’s legacy of tactical inaction.

Political opponents remain baffled by the burgeoning cultural renaissance. Former mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa had previously warned voters about the impending surge, while former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo expressed concern over the lack of traditional policing.

“Not enforcing a law is effectively repealing a law,” Cuomo said. “We saw many laws simply not enforced during de Blasio’s time in office and quality of life dipped. This issue is particularly dangerous because, along with the poor people swept into this life who are hurt and abused, it empowers gangs, organized crime and other criminal enterprises and entire neighborhoods suffer. Anyone who remembers the Bad Old Days of Times Square does not want to go back and that is exactly what will happen if this comes to pass.”

Advocates, however, insist that arresting people for selling illegal services harms their profit margins and makes it much harder to generate income without state interference.

A spokesperson for City Hall confirmed that Mayor Mamdani is actively working alongside neighborhood groups to balance light enforcement with comprehensive social services, ensuring the local red-light district remains a permanent staple of the city's unique charm.

Mamdani’s office did not respond to requests for comment, likely because they were busy celebrating the total elimination of crime through the simple method of no longer counting it.

Man doxxed after exposing his city's booming Islamic surge takes defiant stand: 'Not gonna stop'

DEARBORN, MI — City officials in Dearborn were shocked and appalled this week after a local resident made the radical, unhinged demand that public funds used to decorate municipal streets for religious holidays be distributed with actual equal treatment.

Margot Cleveland, a journalist with The Federalist, filed a civil rights lawsuit alongside the American Freedom Law Center against the city and Democratic Muslim Mayor Abdullah Hammoud. The suit alleges the city violated her constitutional rights by dropping thousands in taxpayer money on massive public holiday installations while completely ignoring repeated requests to extend the same courtesy to Easter and Passover.

"How dare you"

"The City of Dearborn spent taxpayer money to light up its streets and parks for Ramadan while stonewalling a resident who simply asked that Easter, Passover, and other Christian and Jewish holy days be treated the same way," said Robert J. Muise, AFLC co-founder and senior counsel. "That is a straightforward Establishment Clause violation, and the retaliation our client faced for speaking up about it only compounds the constitutional harm."

Legal counsel for Cleveland highlighted a previous City Council meeting where Mayor Hammoud modeled the administration's commitment to community dialogue during a warm, inclusive chat with local Christian pastor Ted Barham.

Pastor Barham

"And although you live here, I want you to know as mayor, you are not welcome here," Hammoud told the Christian pastor during the public session. "And the day you move out of the city will be the day that I launch a parade celebrating the fact that you moved out of the city… because you are not somebody who believes in coexistence."

Dearborn leaders defended the city's festive spending habits—which included $1,500 on holiday banners, $5,000 on a giant crescent moon, custom streetlight installations, and official Dearborn Police Department holiday merch—as standard municipal operations.

"What makes this case especially troubling is that City officials, up to and including the Mayor, responded to a citizen’s respectful request for equal treatment with silence, stonewalling, and outright hostility — including the Mayor’s own words telling a Christian resident he is ‘not welcome’ in his own city," noted David Yerushalmi, an attorney on the case. "Our client is simply asking the City to treat Christians and Jews as equal citizens."

Cleveland maintained that she wasn't asking for the city to tear down its decorations, but rather to extend the spirit of municipal hospitality across all major faiths.

"I much prefer to ensure equality of faith traditions, as opposed to a challenge to the display," Cleveland wrote in an email to city officials.

When asked for comment, city administrators reportedly reiterated that true diversity means celebrating everyone, provided everyone consists exclusively of the group currently holding city hall's credit card.

The latest on Neria Leiter's condition

Here is the latest news about Neria Leiter's condition after being wounded: 

As of Sunday, September 27, Neria Leiter’s life remains in danger, though his father reported some encouraging signs.

Neria Leiter, 38, an IDF reservist and son of Israel’s ambassador to the United States Yechiel Leiter, was critically wounded in a Palestinian car-ramming attack at a checkpoint on Route 443 on Wednesday, September 23. He suffered a severe head injury, arrived at Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem unconscious, and underwent hours of emergency brain surgery overnight.

By Thursday, September 24, doctors said his condition had stabilized but remained serious and life-threatening, primarily due to the brain injury. He was in intensive care.

In an update today, Ambassador Leiter said Neria’s life is “still hanging in the balance” / “still in danger,” but “we have seen some encouraging signs and we are holding onto them with hope.” He thanked people for their prayers and asked that they continue.

The family has requested prayers for Neria Dov ben Chana. There have been no public reports of a major change that would take him out of critical or life-threatening status.

Ro Khanna: Still Crazy After All These Years

Ro Khanna: Not the brightest bulb on the Chanukah bush

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a bold new blueprint for Middle East diplomacy, Representative Ro Khanna has proposed what experts are calling the ultimate shortcut to regional harmony: releasing an Islamic terrorist currently serving five life sentences for orchestrating multiple lethal terror attacks.

Khanna, a card-carrying cretin, publicly called on Israel to free Palestinian figure Marwan Barghouti, arguing that the mastermind behind the murder of multiple civilians is precisely the unifying figure needed to finally usher in lasting peace. 

Why not just ask Israel to commit suicide--it's more efficient.

"Barghouti has a unique standing among all Palestinian factions," Khanna declared, apparently arriving at the conclusion that a veteran of the Second Intifada is just the visionary statesman to run a tranquil neighbor state. "He's seen as non-corrupt, a strong leader, and secular. Barghouti could deliver a Palestinian state living in peace with Israel," this, despite his bloody hobby.

Political strategists noted that while most peace plans rely on tedious negotiations or mutual concessions, Khanna's model relies on the far simpler strategy of releasing mass murderers and hoping for the best.

"Releasing Barghouti does not provide him with a pardon or moral absolution of crimes he may have committed," Khanna clarified, taking care to reassure everyone that letting a convicted terrorist out of prison wouldn't mean anyone actually approves of terrorism. "In fact, a number of human rights groups say he did not even receive a fair trial. But the release is needed to move peace forward…"

To ensure the peaceful vision is fully realized, Khanna doubled down on the former Arafat lieutenant's potential.

“Palestinians must choose their own leaders," Khanna said. "Barghouti has a unique standing among all Palestinian factions. He’s seen as non-corrupt, a strong leader and secular. Barghouti could deliver a Palestinian state living in peace with Israel."

Critics were quick to point out minor details in Barghouti's resume, such as his conviction for planning a 2002 suicide bombing on Jerusalem's King George Street that killed three people and wounded 87 others. However, Washington insiders confirmed those details are merely technicalities compared to his potential as a secular peacemaker.

At publishing time, Khanna was reportedly preparing his follow-up foreign policy proposal, which involves appointing arsonists to lead local fire departments in order to promote structural safety. But he has to wait until he's able to remove his head from his nether regions.

Iranian Official Clarifies That Torturing Citizens Is Purely Self-Care, Actually

Reminiscent of the Zohran Mamdani Sleazy Grin

NEW YORK — Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi shared a warm, heartfelt smile with a reporter on Friday after being asked why his government has executed over 900 citizens this year while subjecting thousands more to torture and imprisonment.

According to witnesses, the foreign minister appeared visibly delighted to be asked about his regime’s favorite weekend activity.

"Tried to ask Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi how he can call himself 'a victim of terrorism' while his government has executed more than 900 Iranians this year, and while thousands of others have been tortured and imprisoned?" asked Fox News Digital reporter Efrat Lachter, posting footage of the interaction to social media. "What, exactly, did he find amusing?"

Sources inside the diplomatic delegation confirmed that Araghchi was simply amused that someone would question the therapeutic benefits of state-sponsored public hangings.

The exchange followed inspiring remarks made Wednesday by Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian at the United Nations General Assembly, where he courageously called out the international community for labeling his peaceful torture-enthusiast government as bad guys.

“The US president described us as terrorists,” Pezeshkian explained to the assembly. “We have been the victims of terrorism.”

Earlier in the week, Araghchi expressed deep sorrow over the lack of international empathy for his regime's struggle to crush basic human rights in peace.

"In the face of the atrocities that occurred, where 168 innocent children were deliberately massacred in a single instant, these countries do not even issue a simple condemnation," Araghchi noted, adding that his delegation was in New York specifically to "defend the legitimacy, rights and interests of the Iranian people," right up until those same people speak out of turn and need to be promptly executed.

At publishing time, the Iranian delegation was seen browsing local real estate in Manhattan to find a nice, quiet park for their next scheduled execution.

Trump hails Iraqi prime minister as ‘fantastic guy’ as Iraq seeks sanctions exemption

NEW YORK — After a brief meeting at the United Nations General Assembly, President Donald Trump officially announced that Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi has achieved the highest honor attainable in modern international diplomacy: being a fantastic guy.

"It went great. He's a fantastic man. He's a friend of mine. I endorsed him, right? I mean, I endorsed him, the Iraqi prime minister, he's a fantastic guy," Trump said Saturday when simply asked how the meeting went.

The glowing endorsement arrived just as the Office of Iraq’s Prime Minister announced Saturday it is in talks with the U.S. Treasury Department to secure an exemption linked to the shutdown of Iranian airlines.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent had previously announced that all Iranian airlines will be "shut down" starting Wednesday during the Operation Economic Outcast pressure campaign against the regime in Tehran.

Upon realizing that "shut down" meant actual planes would stop flying, Iraqi officials immediately requested a special pass.

"The Iraqi government is conducting direct dialogue with the American side to exempt some Iraqi airports from these measures, in a manner that allows the resumption of air travel, for humanitarian reasons related to treatment, study, religious visits, and civilian interests," the Iraq Prime Minister’s Office said Saturday.

Middle Eastern diplomats then released a carefully worded statement urging everyone to just calm down and talk it out.

"While the Iraqi government is working to de-escalate the situation in the region, it affirms that the continuation of crises complicates the scene further, and calls on all parties to engage in dialogue and negotiation to reach solutions that end the current crisis and conflicts, in a way that achieves the interests of the region's countries and peoples," it added.

At press time, Treasury officials were reviewing the exemption request while trying to determine if being a "fantastic guy" carries official diplomatic immunity from economic sanctions.

Two Vape Store Muslims Arrested After Ole Miss Drug Deaths

Yahya Mo and Islam Mo

OXFORD, MS — In a shocking turn of events that has left local authorities utterly bewildered, two Mississippi college students tragically passed away this week after coming into contact with a substance that was, according to town ordinances, strictly prohibited.

Law enforcement officials, employing the kind of high-level detective work usually reserved for prime-time television, executed a raid on a local establishment humbly titled Puffs Vape, Tobacco and Beer Store. To their utter surprise, the raid on the heritage-brand health clinic yielded over 500 units of kratom, THC cartridges, gummies, and various other suspected narcotics, effectively turning the neighborhood storefront into a bustling pharmaceutical warehouse.

Two local entrepreneurs, Yahya Mohamed Mosleh, 51, and Islam Mohamed, 18, were promptly arrested and charged with possession of Schedule I controlled substances with intent to distribute. How incredibly surprising.

City officials noted that kratom has been banned in Oxford since 2019, which led investigators to assume, quite reasonably, that the "vape, tobacco and beer" portion of the store name was the only legal part of the operation.

The raid follows the recent tragic deaths of two Ole Miss students, 18-year-old freshman Aidan Hamilton and 20-year-old junior Robert Strang. Investigators noted that packaged store-bought kratom was present at both scenes, though officials were quick to clarify that they have not officially determined whether the banned substance was the actual cause of death.

"They have not," noted local observers, following up with a polite, "[B]ut hey, can I get an Allahu akbar?"

Authorities have repeatedly emphasized that they have not established whether kratom caused either death, whether the two cases are connected, or whether the two gentlemen arrested on Thursday supplied the specific products found at the scenes. In short, there are several bright, glaring dots on the chalkboard, but officials are still determining if drawing a line between them violates protocol.

The raid, however, came as little surprise to long-time locals who remember the shop's rich heritage. The store's original owner, Amer Alowdi, 40, was indicted in 2022 on narcotics trafficking charges before heroically fleeing the country to avoid prosecution. His current whereabouts remain a mysterious gift to the international community.

Local narcotics task forces warned that the investigation remains active and that additional arrests may be on the horizon. Cross your collective fingers, folks.

“These individuals and this business are not necessarily the only people involved in the illegal distribution of these products,” the Metro Narcotics Unit stated in a public warning, reassuring citizens that local government enforcement efforts are far from over.

Police clarified that while they have not officially solved the tragic deaths on campus, they are making great strides in discovering that places selling illegal drugs are, in fact, selling illegal drugs.

Meanwhile, federal and state health officials continue to study the dangers of highly concentrated kratom derivatives, promising that toxicology reports, thorough laboratory tests, and additional bureaucratic press releases will eventually reveal whether the raid at Puffs is a central plot point or merely an interesting side quest in the Oxford saga.
