On March 7, a throng of left-wing counter protestors met with a small right-wing protest outside Gracie Mansion, the official residence of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D). From within the crowd, 18-year-old Emir Balat threw a homemade bomb and yelled “Allahu akbar.” Balat and his friend Ibrahim Kayumi were arrested for the attack, and law enforcement later determined that the two were ISIS sympathizers.

All of the above information was publicly available by the afternoon of March 7. By 2:00 p.m. ET, several videos of Balat throwing the bomb were already circulating on social media, in which he could clearly be heard yelling the well-known Islamist slogan.

Despite all of that information being readily available, The New York Times’s first headline about the incident read: “Homemade Bomb Thrown at Protest Near N.Y.C. Mayor’s House, Police Say” — a summary so vague that it almost seemed to pin the bomb-throwing on the right-wing protestors.

Since February 14, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been largely shut down after funding lapsed because Democrats demanded changes to President Trump’s deportation policies, leaving government workers such as TSA agents to work without pay and turn to food banks.

A Media Research Center study found that, since the start of the DHS shutdown, only eight percent – or 125 seconds – of the 26 minutes and 22 seconds on the shutdown across the flagship evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC have brought up the fact that the long lines at airports are because of the left’s obstructionism.

MRC analysts examined every mention of the DHS shutdowns and its effects (mainly at America’s airports) by journalists, starting on February 14 on ABC’s World News Tonight, the CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News and tallied both the total coverage and allusions to Democratic demands to reopen DHS.

For decades, my colleagues and I have been up against an immense machine— a wildy rich, axis of media, entertainment, and cultural power that made dissent a form of professional suicide. A form of murder – the systematic killing of a person’s good name, reputation, and livelihood.

And when we pointed out the sharia-compliant media ecosystem that enabled it, the punishment only intensified. We were smeared, deplatformed, shadow-banned, and algorithmically buried—until many of us were effectively disappeared from the public square, leaving the megaphone almost entirely in the hands of far-left demons.

Liel Leibovitz of Tablet looked at the New York Times’ piece on the terror attack outside of Mamdani’s residence titled “At 13, He Was Selling Sneakers. At 18, He’s Facing Terror Charges.” Leibovitz: This is not a bug. It’s a feature. We can mock it all we want, writing cutesy headlines like “at 20, he was an aspiring Viennese painter; at 56, he was facing the Allies in a bunker in Berlin.” But the truth is deeper and more troubling. What we’re seeing here is the result of the left’s near-total command of everything we’re allowed to know, say, and think…. When a perfect machine that includes the Democrat party, mainstream media, intelligence agencies, Big Tech, and corporate America comes together and runs an intel operation on you, this is what reality starts to look like. And it’s not something to be merely laughed at; it’s something to be crushed, which means making very significant changes to how you live your life, who you trust, and what you value (Liebovitz).

Authorities in Missouri arrested a woman who allegedly planned to assassinate President Donald Trump with a firearm she stole from her father.

Johnetta Parsons allegedly stole the gun back in December, transported it to St. Louis, and left the weapon in her friend’s vehicle, according to a criminal complaint, Newsweek reported.

Parsons’ father reported on Dec. 8 to the Ozark County Sheriff’s Office that Parsons had stolen his firearm, a SCCY CPX-2 9mm.

The Columbia Police Department found the gun on Jan. 3 in a vehicle driven to the Greyhound station, with two people in the vehicle saying they had taken Parsons to St. Louis.

The New York Times has caught a lot of justified flak the last few days for how softly it has framed its profiles of the Islamic perpetrator of an anti-Jewish attack on a Michigan synagogue. “The Michigan Synagogue Attacker Was a Quiet Restaurant Worker.” At least Sunday’s print headline was better: “Recalling Attacker’s Last Days Before Driving Into Synagogue.”

Critics faulted the terrorist-sympathetic framing of the story, like another headline: “Family Members of Michigan Synagogue Attacker Died in Airstrike in Lebanon.” The story initially included insistence from sources that members of the man’s family killed in an Israeli air strike there were not members of Hezbollah.

As confirmation of the man’s Hezbollah links emerged, that denial was quietly excised.

Despite CNN being forced to walk back their fake news over the weekend where they suggested the U.S. military and the Trump administration didn’t have a plan to protect the Strait of Hormuz, ABC News program The View still pushed it during their Monday episode. The news show then went on to encourage people to vote for Democrats in the November midterms.

Chronically aggrieved co-host Sunny Hostin pushed the false claim there was no plan for dealing with Iran’s efforts to close the Strait, then suggested the national average price of gas was $8-per-gallon because of it:

I can’t believe that the president didn’t know that Iran’s response to this would be to close the Strait of Hormuz and not allow tankers in. And now our energy prices are going off the rails, $8 for gas.

The emperor is stark naked, but thanks to a misguided legal doctrine, the Republican justices keep insisting he’s fully clothed.

“The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.” Apparently, this famous quote was written by the 19th-century French poet Charles Baudelaire, but I first heard the line in the movie The Usual Suspects. I think about it often, as it encapsulates Donald Trump’s relationship with the Republicans on the Supreme Court.

The Donald Trump who exists in the real world—the racist, fascist sexual predator who happily tweets out the illegal and unconstitutional motivations for his policies—does not exist according to the Supreme Court. Instead, the court has invented a different Trump, one who does not speak, does not lie, and adheres to the well-established norms regarding the use of executive power. It has dreamed up a normal US president, grafted this creation onto Trump’s legal filings, and then ruled as if this fiction were reality.

Rhode Island Democrats are pushing a new bill that would block local police departments from hiring certain ICE agents, ramping up the state’s resistance to President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

The proposal, dubbed the ICE OUT Act, would bar Rhode Island law enforcement agencies from employing anyone hired as a sworn officer by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on or after Jan. 20, 2025. Supporters say it’s about trust and standards. Critics call it political discrimination dressed up as “reform” at a time when recruiting is already a struggle.

“A law enforcement agency… shall not employ any individual who was hired as a sworn officer of the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency on or after January 20, 2025,” the bill reads.

The companion bills in the Rhode Island House and Senate would amend the state’s Law Enforcement Officers’ Due Process Accountability and Transparency Act to add the restriction. The policy would take effect in October 2026 and would not apply to officers already hired out of ICE’s ranks.

Rep. Chip Roy is demanding an “immediate” investigation into the leftist network of activist groups organizing protests against President Donald Trump’s intervention in Iran after some of the network’s leaders met with the Cuban Communist Party’s Politburo earlier this week.

“That this group would openly meet with Cuba tells you how urgent it is for the administration and state law enforcement entities, including attorneys general, to immediately investigate these groups and the myriad other groups that are clearly acting against our national security interests,” the Texas Republican told The Daily Signal in a phone interview Thursday.

ABC News, already the worst among the Elitist Media broadcast network evening newscasts, may have plumbed a new low. A story subject’s murderous, transgender father was hit with Disney pixie dust and spun into the more anodyne “former family member.”

Watch the report in its entirety, as aired on ABC World News Tonight on Thursday, March 12th, 2026:

A Progmerican judge has made another unhinged ruling intended to prevent ICE officers from effectively protecting their facilities from paid Progmerican street fighters, the so-called anti-ICE protestors. Michael Simon, traitor to the American republic, has ruled that officers cannot use non-lethal means of crowd dispersal or control unless the crowd poses an “imminent threat of physical harm”

Non-lethal crowd control is a means of preventing protests from becoming riots. This ruling effectively assures violence will happen at ICE facilities as ICE officers will only be respond once, effectively, lethal force is justified. This is exactly what they want, ICE officers killing their street soldiers, who will all be portrayed by the Democrat media as choir boys and girls that didn’t do no harm, mothers, sons, fathers, etc.

Judge Simon as married to a militant anti-ICE Progmerican, Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici. That fact was not enough to warrant his removal from this case, because the decision makers are all Progmericans themselves, so no action was taken against this clear violation of judicial standards.

Let us pray for a quick reversal. Let us pray more for the insurrectionist judges in this country to be removed, lawfully, by the DOJ. The evidence of their sedition is now overwhelming. Lest the civic rescue us, they continue to be a righteous judgment against an evil land, a land that continues to sacrifice children as a means of birth control.

BREAKING: Oregon federal judge blocks ICE from using crowd control munitions at Portland facility – The Post Millennial

Judge Simon, appointed by Barack Obama, is married to anti-ICE Oregon Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici, which has sparked conflict-of-interest claims.

United States District Court Judge Michael Simon has issued a preliminary injunction prohibiting federal agents from using less-lethal crowd control munitions on agitators at the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Portland, Oregon. Judge Simon ruled on Monday in favor of a group of protesters and leftist self-declared journalists who filed a lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on claims that their First Amendment rights have been violated by being subjected to crowd control measures during ongoing Antifa-affiliated direct actions, arguing improper force on “peaceful protesters” intended for “retaliatory animus.”

The order bars officers from using chemical or projectile munitions against protesters, unless they pose an “imminent threat of physical harm” to a law enforcement officer or someone else. This includes tear gas, pepper balls, flash-bang grenades, rubber bullets, pepper or oleoresin capsicum spray, and other less-lethal weapons. Judge Simon also decided that federal authorities cannot fire munitions at an individual’s head, neck, or body unless they are warranted in using lethal force.

Additionally, Judge Simon, who is married to anti-ICE Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici, sparking conflict-of-interest claims, ruled that federal agents are forbidden from using chemical munitions or projectiles against individuals trespassing on ICE property, even if they refuse to comply with an officer’s order to disperse. This includes the driveway, which is the main entrance to the facility that controls ingress and egress. It is also the main area where demonstrators gather and have been documented attacking the building, assaulting federal agents, and impeding federal vehicles, including the transport of illegal immigrants, since June 2025, when the ongoing Antifa-affiliated anti-ICE occupation was first established.

Just the other day, we told you that the Chicago Teachers’ Union (CTU) can’t find time to teach Chicago Public School (CPS) students to read, but it can find time to rub elbows with Marxists, Antifa, and others in a pro-Iran protest. It’s painfully clear that CTU has no intention of teaching children how to read or do math, but to be Left-wing activists instead. This time, CTU is urging its members to not show up to work on May 1.

It’s come to the point for CNN where the only thing worse than people not watching their channel is when people watch their channel.

Oh, sure, the former Don Lemon Network™ has plenty of issues with the former. You’re not going to have to give up your jokes about measuring CNN viewership by airport delays anytime soon. But with those airport delays (thanks for the DHS shutdown, Democrats!) comes additional opportunities to check out what they’re doing over there — and holy moly, are they still screwing things up.

Take the attempted terror attack near Gracie Mansion in New York City on Saturday, purportedly by a couple of Islamic State group-inspired nutjobs. (Or, as the network might have called it back in 2020, “fiery but mostly peaceful protesters.”)

Attorney General Pam Bondi has reportedly relocated from her Washington, D.C., residence to secure housing on a military base after federal authorities warned of escalating threats against the nation’s top law enforcement official.

Tuesday on MS NOW’s “The Briefing,” Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said President Donald Trump would try to “seize ballot boxes’ to “subvert the vote” in the midterm elections.

Host Jen Psaki said, “The administration subpoenaed records from 2020 from Arizona. We know that’s not about changing the outcome of the 2020 election. We know that they’ve already gone through that. It’s obviously about 2026. What do you make of that and what’s your level of concern about it?”

Schiff said, “I think the subpoenas in Arizona, America, Maricopa County, the FBI raid in Georgia, this is all trying to establish some kind of phony predicate for them to say that the election system is so flawed, the machines don’t work. There’s too much fraud and absentee ballots that come November, they can nationalize the elections, they can somehow outlaw absentee ballots, or they can seize ballot boxes and they will have some pretext to do it. So this is, I think, part of laying the foundation to interfere with, suppress the vote or ultimately subvert the vote. They understand, as we do in the Democratic Party, that they are likely to get clobbered in the midterms and, you know, they’re willing to resort to anything.”

DORAL, Florida — President Donald Trump told House Republicans Monday he had one overriding legislative priority for 2026. Then they spent Tuesday talking about just about anything else.

Trump’s demand for passage of an updated SAVE America Act — a GOP elections bill that the House has advanced two versions of already — was met with less than complete enthusiasm from leaders gathered for the annual Republican policy retreat.

Speaker Mike Johnson and other senior lawmakers gave the unmistakable impression they now consider that bill to be a Senate problem — even after Trump insisted the House take it up a third time and add on more controversial provisions, such as a near-total ban on mail voting.

That post, however, quickly drew heavy backlash for appearing to downplay the attempted bombing that took place.

CNN later deleted the post, then apologized, writing on X, “A post regarding the two individuals arrested for throwing homemade bombs outside of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home failed to reflect the gravity of the incident thereby breaching the editorial standards we require for all our reporting. It has therefore been deleted.”

Balat was seen on video throwing the explosive device that failed to detonate. At the same time, he yelled “Allahu Akbar.” Kayumi and Balat indicated to police that they carried out the actions because they had pledged allegiance to ISIS, according to the criminal complaint.

Anytime something happens in these United States of America that makes the left look bad, we on the right snark to each other about how the media will gloss over it, glorify the perpetrators, and make the progressive in question seem less bad. Like the two ISIS-inspired bombers in NYC. Sure, attempting to people up with and IED is bad, but the real villains were the tens of people Islamophobiaing in the street. Even by our usual low standards for the journalsiming industrial complex, this CNN framing is something.

Terrorists inspired by ISIS? Meh. Emir Balat and Ibraham Kayumi were just two teens who, on an unseasonably sunny day, made a mistake that could change their lives forever.

Two Pennsylvania teenagers crossed into New York City Saturday morning for what could’ve been a normal day enjoying the city during abnormally warm weather.

But in less than an hour, their lives would drastically change as the pair would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs during an anti-Muslim protest outside of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home. Here’s what we know so far.

While Gavin Newsom believes one of the last of his fights in the State of California should be to put an end to misinformation regarding the Golden State, someone should really inform him that the truth hurts. Just because it is not hard to make his leadership look like a failure, that does not make those claims invalid. He, however, believes otherwise, which is why he has decided to spend nearly $20 million to fight the truth.

According to the California Post:

As California faces a multibillion-dollar budget deficit, Gov. Gavin Newsom plans to spend millions in taxpayer money on an ad campaign to try to rebrand the state as a “great place to live, work, invest and visit.”

During Monday’s CNN This Morning, panelist Susan Page of USA Today suggested President Trump missed an opportunity to negotiate with Iran after President Masoud Pezeshkian made a video statement on Saturday as a pledge to Gulf countries that they would stop attacks against them.

Spoiler alert: the attacks against gulf countries had not stopped since Pezeshkian has little to no power over the IRGC, something CNN contributor Brett McGurk pointed out earlier in the panel segment.

McGurk, while he reminded the viewers that Pezeshkian was an “accidental president,” pointed out the IRGC’s rejection of the president:

So, Pezeshkian is known as being, you know, somewhat of a moderate guy. That word is overused, but he’s not really kind of totally aligned with the real hardliners. He came out with a statement on Saturday morning apologizing to gulf states, saying, we’re going to stop these attacks, offering an off ramp, even. And President Trump then put out a statement saying that, you – they’re basically surrendering when it comes to the Middle East states but we’re going to continue the attacks. In any case, as soon as Pezeshkian spoke, within an hour or so, the hardline in Iran, the revolutionary guards said that is not our policy. And attacks against the gulf continued.

According to CNN’s Data Analyst Harry Enten, you should not be surprised that people who have served in the military largely approve of the U.S. strikes on Iran when compared to voters overall.

He cites a Fox News Poll:

Among Republicans, more than 8 in 10 approve of the current U.S. use of force, while only 6 in 10 say the president’s actions on Iran are making the U.S. safer.

Nearly 8 in 10 Democrats disapprove of the U.S. strikes and think things are less safe because of Trump’s performance, while 6 in 10 or more independents think the same on both counts.

Among voters who have served in the military, 59% approve of the U.S. strikes on Iran (39% disapprove). Compared to voters overall, who say the U.S. is less safe by a wide margin, veterans are more closely divided on the question of whether Trump’s actions have made the country safer (37%) or less safe (44%).

Hours after an Oliver Darcy underling screeched Sunday about CBS News’s social media platforms as having gone full MAGA for covering unsavory stories such as a Jewish Insider investigation into the radical social media history of New York City’s first lady, Monday’s CBS Mornings showed the liberal media are unsurprisingly not living in reality as the newscast welcomed far-left Texas senatorial candidate James Talarico (D) for an embarrassingly soft interview.

In just over six minutes, the co-hosts never offered an adversarial question to Talarico and strayed from the network’s own role in arguably endorsing Talarico’s primary campaign or any mention of the litany of radical statements over the course of his young life, such as these compiled in one convenient mash-up by our friends at Conservative War Machine:
