A Somali immigrant in Minnesota is under federal investigation after posting a TikTok video in which he openly threatened to shoot Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents amid heightened federal enforcement activity targeting criminal illegal aliens in the Twin Cities.

The man was identified by the New York Post as Hasan Mohamed, a student at the taxpayer-funded Minnesota State University.

“ICE, I actually heard you guys pulled up to Owatonna, the big O, and you pulled up when I was not there?” Mohamed said in the now-deleted clip.

“Y’all so p–s-ass s–t, boy.

“You’re gonna get popped next time I see you.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara has triggered a political firestorm this week after warning city officers they could be fired if they fail to intervene against what he deems “unlawful” or “excessive” force by federal immigration agents.

The directive immediately set Minneapolis on a collision course with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

“If unlawful force is being used by any law enforcement officer against any person in this city and one of our officers is there, absolutely, I expect them to intervene, or they’ll be fired,” O’Hara said at a press conference, tying the policy to lessons the department claims it drew from the George Floyd incident.

“We’re not going to repeat that mistake with any agency, or otherwise.”

How Muslim Migrants Are Conquering the USA Block by Block

America’s heartland bleeds red, white, and blue, but in the shadows of Detroit’s rusting factories, a foreign army advances with calculated fury. It’s no accident. It’s a blueprint forged in the fires of conquest: immigrate as the oppressed, multiply like a storm front, demand your caliphate’s laws, and crush the infidel culture beneath your boot. This isn’t theory – it’s happening now, in Hamtramck and Dearborn, where minarets pierce the sky and Sharia’s shadow darkens school boards, city halls, and welfare lines. The invaders don’t whisper; they roar through loudspeakers five times a day, calling the faithful to prayer while the rest of us fund their siege.

A congressional Democrat was slammed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for her tactics during a recent immigration raid in Tucson, Arizona.

During the Dec. 5 raid, Homeland Security Investigations Arizona and federal partners arrested 46 illegal aliens, including some who had prior arrests for sexual assault and illegal re-entry, after executing 16 search warrants, according to an ICE news release.

But all of this was nothing more than a backdrop for Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva of Arizona, who helped whip a crowd into a frenzy while the cameras were rolling and then claimed afterward that ICE was the aggressor.

One of America’s major national security threats is the cozy relationship between many American corporations and the Chinese government. Microsoft is one of the worst offenders in this regard, as proven by a new report released last week. It adds to the growing evidence that the tech giant is far too close with America’s chief geopolitical foe to be trusted with handling critical infrastructure.

The report, compiled by Nathan Picarsic of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and Horizon Advisory, reveals a disturbing picture about the tech giant. “Over three decades, the company has built a vast commercial, research, and engineering presence in China, one that now intersects directly with the PRC’s intelligence, surveillance, and military-industrial ecosystem,” the study notes.

American Greatness has previously covered Microsoft’s suspicious ties to the Chinese Communist Party. In August, the Department of War severed ties with a Microsoft cloud service program that relied on Chinese engineers. “The use of Chinese nationals to service Department of Defense cloud environments? It’s over,” Secretary of War Pete Hegesth said at the time. The new report references this tawdry connection, as well as several other “risky engagements.”

Democrats have spent the entirety of the second Trump administration attacking the President’s immigration plans as well as the ICE and Border Patrol agents who keep our country safe.

Tim Walz has been one of the most vocal critics, calling ICE the “Gestapo” and “fascists” on multiple occasions. That rhetoric has led to a massive increase in violent attacks against ICE agents, including a shooting at an ICE facility in Texas that killed at least two migrants.

But that’s not good enough for Walz. Now he has to lie about ICE arresting American citizens.

Turning Point USA leaders forced off campus at Illinois university after death threats

Leaders of a Turning Point USA chapter at Olivet Nazarene University have been forced off campus for their safety after receiving death threats.

University officials are investigating the threats and gave chapter president Jacob York accommodations to finish the semester virtually, Fox News reported.

The chapter’s vice president, Mara Hudson, who manages the group’s Instagram account, was also advised to go home.

It took about a week, but it is our duty to report that the Minnesota Somali welfare scam has finally been reported on Elitist Media nightly news. Unsurprisingly, the network to break the seal was NBC.

Watch as Senior White House Correspondent Gabe Gutierrez does the right thing and exposes NBC’s viewers to an egregious theft of public funds via fraud, regardless of the fraudsters’ ethnic origins:

GABE GUTIERREZ: It comes as the administration ramps up its crackdown on illegal immigration. A senior law enforcement official tells NBC News ICE is planning an operation this week in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, where there’s a large Somali population.

Thirteen House Republicans broke ranks Wednesday night, siding with Democrats to move ahead on a bill aimed at gutting President Donald Trump’s executive order clamping down on federal worker unions.

The push came from Rep. Jared Golden of Maine, who used a procedural weapon known as a discharge petition to force the issue onto the floor. The maneuver lets a majority of lawmakers drag a bill forward even if leadership wants it buried.

The House voted 222-200 to start debate and set up a final vote. All 209 Democrats joined 13 Republicans to advance the measure, which faces another procedural test Thursday.

The GOP defectors were Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey, Nicole Malliotakis of New York, Nick LaLota of New York, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Rob Bresnahan of Pennsylvania, Don Bacon of Nebraska, Mike Lawler of New York, Tom Kean of New Jersey, Ryan Mackenzie of Pennsylvania, Zach Nunn of Iowa, Chris Smith of New Jersey, Pete Stauber of Minnesota, and Mike Turner of Ohio.

Wikipedia is “Wokepedia,” complains Elon Musk. That’s because it’s become so left-wing.

“It’s designed to push an ideological agenda that you can’t see,” says journalist Ashley Rindsberg in my new video. He runs “Neutral Point of View,” a Substack publication that exposes Wikipedia bias.

“So what if it’s biased?” I ask. “It’s just one website.”

“Wikipedia’s information spreads into everything online,” he replies, “ChatGPT, … Siri, Alexa. Ask a question, it is all Wikipedia.”

As a result, “a few thousand powerful editors determine what gets counted as information.”

Those editors sure hate President Donald Trump. When he put undocumented immigrants in what people called “cages” at detention centers, Wikipedia editors listed the centers under “concentration camps.”

New York’s Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani (D-Communist, Jew-hating Islamist) just admitted he has no idea where to get the $700 million necessary to fund his “free bus” scheme.

Actually, what you have here is a twofer. Not only does Mamdani have no plan, but here’s another example of the useless media asking these kinds of questions only after their guy ( a communist, Jew-hating Islamist) is safely in office.

The reporter points out that Mamdani does not want to take any money away from New York’s MTA (Metropolitan Transit Authority). Mamdani agrees. Then comes the question a real media would’ve been asking relentlessly and for months during the campaign: “How are you getting the $700M to make the buses free if the governor is not for raising taxes?”

Mamdani answers with “raising the corporate tax.”

Twelve years ago, in 2013, the Gatestone Institute published an in-depth account of the Muslim Brotherhood’s infiltration operations vs. the U.S. government (written by this author). The vicious outburst of antisemitic Jew-hatred that followed the horrific Hamas atrocities of October 7, 2023, centered alarmingly on America’s university campuses but also was evident in violent attacks against Jews on our streets and at their synagogues. Much of this was obviously coordinated, orchestrated, and funded by Muslim Brotherhood (MB) front groups such as the National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP) and others—again written about here by this author at American Greatness in May 2025. The broader implications, as noted in that piece, must lead to Hamas and Brotherhood sponsors abroad as well as here at home.

As the new Trump administration came into office in January 2025, Attorney General Pam Bondi established the Joint Task Force October 7 (JTF 10-7), whose purpose is to seek justice for the victims of October 7 but also to address “the ongoing threat posed by Hamas and its affiliates” in the homeland. The Department of Justice (DOJ) also set up the Task Force to Combat Antisemitism, led by civil rights attorney Leo Terrell. Clearly, the new Trump administration is aware of and determined to counter antisemitism by going after the organizations like the Muslim Brotherhood that sponsor it. However, it still seems not to have focused on nation-state sponsors, like Qatar and Turkey.

Democrats have a knack for downplaying political violence when it suits their political narrative, but Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) took it to a new, disgraceful low on Thursday.

During a House Committee on Homeland Security hearing, the Mississippi Democrat, who previously chaired Nancy Pelosi’s handpicked January 6 Select Committee, decided to rewrite history. He referred to the targeted assassination attempt on American soldiers by Afghan Rahmanullah Lakanwal as an “unfortunate accident.”

You really have to see the transcript to believe the level of disconnect on display here.

Thompson was questioning DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and NCTC Director Joseph Kent. He attempted to trap them in a bureaucratic gotcha moment regarding asylum paperwork. In the process, he revealed exactly how the Left views threats to our nation. Thompson looked at Secretary Noem and casually referred to “the unfortunate accident that occurred with the National Guardsman being killed.”

Washington, D.C., Councilwoman Janeese Lewis George played the political fundraising game so well in her mayoral campaign’s opening days that the district’s campaign finance system couldn’t handle it.

Given the “unprecedented size” of her initial fundraising filing, Lewis George’s campaign needed to split up their filings because the campaign website couldn’t accept the large report. The councilwoman’s campaign said that they spent “dozens of hours” manually uploading thousands of donor records because of the website’s error. They will later upload an amended report to include more donors.

The socialist has been a prolific fundraiser in the opening days of her campaign, backed by a well of D.C. grassroots support and the city’s matching funds system. She broke the record for qualifying for the city’s public financing system in just a few hours. Mayor Muriel Bowser set the record in 2022, but it took her two weeks.

The new report showed the campaign drew $188,591 from D.C. residents in its first 10 days, with 2,567 unique district donors. D.C.’s 5-to-1 match will give Lewis George nearly $1 million in matching funds, on top of $30,000 in outside contributions and an $80,000 grant.

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk has ignited a political firestorm after reposting a resurfaced video of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and accusing the radical Democrat congresswoman of treason for pledging to use her position in Congress to protect Somalia’s interests.

“This sounds like treason,” Musk wrote on X.

Musk made the remark while responding to a clip of Omar telling Somali constituents in Minnesota that “The U.S. government will do what we ask it to do.”

Omar continues by assuring Somalis that she would use her seat in Congress to block the breakaway Republic of Somaliland from allowing Ethiopia to build a naval base.

Jaylani Hussein, the director of the Minnesota Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), said last week that Somali’s are the real victims amid a fraud scandal that saw over $1 billion in taxpayer money funneled away from welfare programs. The bulk of those convicted were of Somali descent.

CAIR has faced heat in the last month, as both Texas and Florida have designated the group as a foreign terrorist organization.

“Of the 70 or so people charged in that case, most are members of the Somali community. Do you think that scandal is giving the White House ammunition for these attacks?” CNN anchor Boris Sanchez asked.

President Trump, in the wake of the fraud scandal, has criticized Somali immigrants, the Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, Rep. Ilhan Omar, whose district this occurred in, and others. Specifically, Trump called Somali’s “garbage” and pointed out that they disproportionately take more from state and federal welfare programs than they contribute via taxes.

New Venture Fund, a hub of the Left’s dark money network, bankrolls both sides of climate lawfare: the lawyers who file lawsuits against energy companies and a nonprofit training judges to view such cases favorably. The fund, however, claims these projects are “unrelated.”

In its 2024 tax filing, New Venture Fund reported sending $2.3 million to Sher Edling, L.L.P., a law firm that represents Democratic prosecutors when they file climate litigation against tax filings. The fund also gave $1.25 million to the Environmental Law Institute, a nonprofit that trains judges how to approach their work to “make environmental, economic, and social progress.”

“New Venture Fund works with numerous projects and institutional funders to advance their missions on a variety of issues, including education, health care, and the environment,” a spokesperson for the nonprofit told The Daily Signal in a statement Friday. “Our grants to Sher Edling and the Environmental Law Institute were made on behalf of two separate fiscally sponsored projects. These grants are unrelated and have no connection to each other.”

One night after hyping “disturbing images” out of Florida during a Border Patrol operation, ABC’s World News Tonight was at it again on Friday. This time, anchor David Muir and correspondent Pierre Thomas labeled the videos “alarming” and “harrowing” despite each of the three examples having a perfectly reasonable explanation.

Muir kicked off the segment by declaring, “We move on to the alarming new images this evening. A woman seen being chased by federal agents near New Orleans, screaming to be left alone. She’s a U.S. citizen being chased by Border Patrol, but Homeland Security is now saying tonight it comes amid similar scenes playing out across the country as President Trump’s immigration crackdown grows. Pierre Thomas with the images tonight.”

Thomas began his report with “harrowing video showing a woman frantically running away from federal agents in Louisiana. President Trump’s nationwide immigration crackdown intensifies.”

As it turns out, the episode was just a case of mistaken identity, “Masked border agents chasing that woman on foot as she screams in fear. Running into her house as her stepfather races outside. Initially thinking she was being kidnapped. Demanding answers. That woman was a 23-year-old U.S. citizen. DHS saying in a statement, “All agents left the area as soon as they determined the individual in question was not who they were looking for.’”

Democrat Senator Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) is facing mounting criticism after appearing in a video that encouraged U.S. service members to launch a military coup against President Donald Trump.

The message, which called on troops to ignore “illegal orders,” was widely considered an act of sedition and interpreted as a direct challenge to Trump and War Secretary Pete Hegseth.

Slotkin, a former CIA analyst, joined five Democrat lawmakers with military backgrounds in the video, which strongly implied that unlawful or improper orders either were being issued or soon would be.

The group of Democrats in the video earned the name “Seditious Six” over the controversy.

“The Charlie Kirk Show” producer Blake Neff lambasted podcaster Candace Owens Wednesday for claiming that Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk was “betrayed” by high-ranking members of the conservative student group, saying TPUSA would deliver a detailed response to her claims via a livestream.

Authorities arrested Tyler Robinson, 22, early in the morning of Sept. 12, accusing him of fatally shooting Kirk during a TPUSA event at Utah Valley University. Owens posted on X Tuesday that she would “be naming names and providing evidence” to support her allegations, which have involved French paratroopers, the Egyptian military and TPUSA leadership. (RELATED: ‘Holy Sh*t!’: Podcaster Aghast As Charlie Kirk’s Security Leader Reads Texts He Allegedly Sent University Police)

“For the past two and a half months, there is a topic that has flooded our freedom inbox, has been non-stop on social media, but which we have almost totally avoided on this show,” Neff said. “You probably already know what I’m talking about, which shows just how ubiquitous it has been. Ever since Charlie’s murder, Candace Owens has leveled a flood of allegations against people at Turning Point USA, people at Turning Point Action and people who work for this show. She’s made them against some of Charlie’s closest friends and against some of his most dedicated employees.”

There’s a meme that floats around the X-Twitters about how so much of being a progressive is pretending that you don’t know what things mean. Exhibit Q is Jasmine Crockett claiming that Democrats don’t call for violence against political opponents and have never called for violence. Jazzy, for someone who barely exists off of social media, also apparently doesn’t know how the internets work. The GOP had no problem answering her challenge with twenty examples.

Or, it depends on how you define “call to violence.” If we are using the “independent” “fact” checker standard, because it’s the GOP and no Democrat said the actual words “I call you to commit violence” verbatim and in that order, an argument could be made that none of these examples are a call to violence.

Even though the people making that argument are the same people who called for Sarah Palin to be held as an accessory to murder for using a commonly used crosshairs graphic to illustrate how congressional seats were being targeted. A graphic so commonly used, Democrats were using the same graphic for the same reason in the same election cycle.

President Donald Trump hosted a Cabinet meeting at the White House Tuesday, where Secretary of War Pete Hegseth gave a spirited defense of the much debated military strikes on a drug-trafficking vessel in the Caribbean on September 2.

The Washington Post reported on Friday that Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” before the strikes on the “suspected drug boats.” After two men allegedly survived the initial strike, according to the Post’s sources, the mission commander ordered a second strike to take them out to comply with Hegseth’s directive. “The two men were blown apart in the water, the Post reported.

Democrats contend that the second strike to take out the survivors could have been a violation of the laws of war.

Amid talk of potential war crimes, the New York Times on Monday reported additional details refuting the Washington Post’s version of events, clarifying that Hegseth had ordered the attack, but not the killing of survivors.

Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s “Outnumbered,” Erika Kirk, the Turning Point USA CEO and widow of assassinated conservative activist Charlie Kirk, addressed online conspiracies around her husband’s murder.

I am busy building.’ That is how I feel.

She continued, “I do not have time to address the noise. My silence does not mean that I am complacent. My silence does not mean that somehow Turning Point USA and all of the handpicked staff that loved my husband and my husband loved them is somehow in on it. We are busy building. And you know what I thought? I thought these people are human. We are all grieving in our own way. And they are trying to find the answer to something that happened that was so evil. They are trying so hard. And I get that. We’re doing the same. Anytime we hear a lead or anytime we hear anything, we send it to the authorities. Please dig into this. No rock will be unturned.

WITNESS “is a global organization that helps people everywhere harness the power of video and audiovisual technology to tell their stories, document the truth, and defend human rights – today and in a future increasingly shaped by AI.” And in whatever pursuit that even is, they have published a video recommending people record ICE agents engaged in lawful arrests of illegal aliens. Unclear where they got the idea that humans have a “right” to break the law, but I digress.

According to the video, people have “the right to film interactions” between illegals and ICE agents. This recommendation comes after there have been record numbers of doxxing incidents targeting agents and their families. And when you see videos like this, it’s not even remotely surprising.

The video even goes as far as to recommend people get any and all information, such as badge numbers and uniforms. It’s unclear exactly why people would need this information, but you can do the math.

Detroit is synonymous with autos, Los Angeles with motion pictures, and Texas with oil. Pittsburgh still conjures steel. When a product or service anchors a region’s economy, that sector has power. Politicians court industry. Industry demands representation and, ideally, protection.

What’s true regionally is just as true nationally. That’s why K Street exists and lobbyists make big bucks. Fortunes rise and fall, but if our GDP slips even 3%, the usual talking heads sprint to the cameras to declare the American economy on the verge of collapse — and always under whichever Republican is in office. When a Democrat presides over a faltering economy, the political media prefers to drive the getaway car.

Harassing users did nothing to stop the poison. Blowing up supply at sea does. Every sunken shipment dents the cartels’ profits. Every explosion represents a tangible loss.

If any of us invented a product that added 3% to national GDP, we’d enjoy the influence over policy and legislation that naturally comes with living in a representative republic with a market economy. Innovation and competition fuel prosperity.
