Coachella's Shocking Support for Terrorists After Nova Music Festival Massacre (Language)

Why are we not surprised? The power of Muslim activists aligned with useful idiots on campuses. TD

When Coachella became a stage for terror support  

"The festival's organizers, Goldenvoice and AEG, have deeply harmed the Jewish community and should publicly apologize for their indiscretion. At a time when Jewish communities around the world are still reeling from the trauma of October 7, the decision to give a platform to a band that glorifies terror is not just tone-deaf  it is morally indefensible."


"Israelis and Jews around the world will forever be haunted by what happened at the Nova Music Festival on October 7, when Hamas infiltrated Israel, rampaged through the festival, massacred over 360 concertgoers, and brutally took another 44 hostages. So many innocent, peaceful music lovers had their lives stolen, and the survivors will never be the same.

"To then weaponize a music festival to display hateful imagery or symbolism targeting the Jewish state, especially at an event like Coachella, which is supposed to be about peace and unity, is deeply disturbing.

"During their debut at Coachella in Los Angeles, the anti-Israel Irish band KNEECAP used their stage to project hateful, anti-Israel propaganda. They flashed the words "F**k Israel, Free Palestine" across the screen and led chants of "Free Palestine" before thousands of cheering concertgoers. The propaganda continued with false accusations of genocide and war crimes, the same lies routinely spread by those who support terrorism against Israel.

"This should come as no surprise from KNEECAP, who have a well-documented history of supporting terror groups like Hezbollah during their shows. Hezbollah, an Iranian proxy, has been a US-designated foreign terrorist organization since 1997 and is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Americans. On February 23, 2025, KNEECAP posted a photo of one of its members reading "Voice of Hezbollah: The Statements of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah." Nasrallah was Hezbollah's longtime group leader and was killed by an Israeli airstrike in September 2024. Expressing support for him is equivalent to supporting Osama Bin Laden, the mastermind of the September 11 terror attacks. In November 2024, KNEECAP waved a Hezbollah flag onstage during a concert in London. The band also expressed support for Hamas on October 7, even as Israel was still counting the bodies of its dead, and again on the one-year anniversary of the massacre." . . .

Kneecap: Sharon Osbourne calls for US visas to be revoked after Coachella

Kneecapping - Wikipedia: . . ."During the Troubles in Northern Ireland, paramilitaries considered themselves to be law enforcers in their own areas. They used limb shootings to 'punish' alleged drug pushers and child molesters. If the crime was considered to be grave, the victim was also shot in the ankles and elbows, leaving them with six gunshot wounds (colloquially known as a six pack).[5] Approximately 2,500 people were victims of these paramilitary attacks, known as 'punishment shootings' at the time, through the duration of the conflict. Those who were attacked often faced social stigma.[6]

"The Red Brigades, an Italian militant organization, employed limb shootings (gambizzazioni) to warn their opponents. They used the method to punish at least 75 people up to December 1978.[7][8]

"The Bangladesh Police have started kneecapping in the country since 2009 to punish the opposition and prevent them from participating in protests against the government. Human Rights Watch (HRW) has published a report on kneecapping in Bangladesh.[9]" . . . This Wikipedia article also accuses the Israelis of kneecapping Hamas members, but the nature of this site makes the accusation suspect as none of the anti-Israel press has made this claim. Not even MSNBC. TD

Biden and MS-13; never trust the press again

Authors of 2024 expose say Dems need a 'reckoning' on handling of Biden's health  . . ."Multiple prominent Democrats, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., have been pressed by reporters to defend their previous statements praising Biden for his quick mind. The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and other outlets have revealed that some members of Biden's inner circle were deeply concerned about Biden's mental abilities during his presidency, especially following his debate with then-candidate Donald Trump last June."

CNN Just Pulled the Rug Out From Under CNN's Kaitlan Collins 

If any of these preening prelates of propaganda gave a damn about their reputations, they'd bow and scrape for forgiveness — and I mean that literally — or retire in humiliation from public life completely.  Video

 "A CNN segment this week might have just pulled the rug out from under CNN's own Kaitlan Collins as the network finally gets around to reporting the truth about Joe Biden. A new report on the latest Biden tell-all book is simply devastating when seen alongside a resurfaced clip of Collins last June, lying to her audience about Biden's condition.

" 'President Biden has spent days locked in intense preparation, surrounded by his closest advisors at Camp David," Collins said at the time. "And our sources are telling us tonight that full mock debates are underway — at the podium, under the lights… and as I reported while covering him at the White House, when Biden prepares, he does so incredibly intensively."

"Her sources lied. Collins lied. But Collins was just one among many — and they weren't alone. 

"Anyone watching Biden on TV knew the only thing he did intensely was try to remember how to put one foot in front of the other. Anyone "covering him at the White House" knew that things were even worse than that. 

"Perhaps the only reason Collins isn't the worst reporter in D.C. is that there's no way to pick just one from the incestuous pool of quasi-government spokesmodels who cosplay as journalists on TV." . . .

The Truth About That American Citizen Detained by ICE Comes Out, and Narratives Burn to the Ground

Bonchie; RedState  

If I go up to the cops and tell them I murdered someone and then sign a statement to that effect, they are going to detain me until they figure out what's going on. That's what happened here, and it is not the fault of ICE or CBP that they were lied to. 


"On Friday, the story of an American citizen being held by immigration officials for ten days burst into the political sphere. It was the perfect storm for the press, who were salivating over the opportunity to turn one of the Trump administration's best polling issues into a liability. 

"As the original reporting went, Jose Hermosillo was wrongfully arrested in Albuquerque, NM, and held for over a week despite telling ICE officials that he was an American. It wasn't until his family showed up with a birth certificate and a Social Security card that he was released. 

"On its face, this seemed like a pretty big flub by federal officials. After all, no one should want a government that can mistakenly arrest you and hold you for ten days without any evidence that you're an illegal alien. There's just one problem, though. Hermosillo not only told immigration officials he crossed the border illegally, but he also signed a statement swearing that as well. 

"That sound you hear is the sound of a thousand narratives burning to the ground. 

"This is why it's always smart to wait for more details before jumping on a story that sounds too good to be true, politically speaking. Democrats and those generally skeptical of Trump's increased immigration enforcement thought they had the holy grail here. Finally, ICE had rashly and unconstitutionally scooped up a U.S. citizen and violated their rights for over a week. It was the talking point they wanted. 

"Except it turns out that Hermosillo not only told immigration authorities he wasn't an American citizen, but he even concocted an entire story about crossing the border illegally to find work in the United States. Why did he do that? I have no idea. Maybe he's got mental issues. Maybe he was doing something he wasn't supposed to be doing and thought posing as an illegal immigrant was the better option." . . . 

The Press Is Back In Full Frenzy Mode, But This Time Nobody Is Listening 

"When an illegal immigrant from El Salvador (widely depicted as a “Maryland father”) is deported back to a maximum security prison in his home country, the press acts as though any American citizen could suffer the same fate."

..."News stories assume the absolute worst about Trump. Reporters run with thinly sourced stories to attack him. They freak out about everything he says. Stoke panic at every turn. Endlessly predict doom and gloom. Play up astroturf protests. And studiously ignore whatever successes Trump does achieve. When context is needed, it’s ignored.

"This makes it all but impossible for the average American to know what they can trust, or when there actually is something to be concerned about. When everything is a crisis, nothing is.

"When rogue federal judges started routinely issuing universal injunctions against Trump executive orders, a practice that is legally suspect and was extremely rare until Trump showed up, the story wasn’t how these judges wildly overstepped their bounds, it’s that Trump was creating a “constitutional crisis.”

"When an illegal immigrant from El Salvador (widely depicted as a “Maryland father”) is deported back to a maximum security prison in his home country, the press acts as though any American citizen could suffer the same fate.

"When DOGE starts pruning the fantastically wasteful government and firing a few overpaid bureaucrats, the stories aren’t about the $2 trillion deficit that President Biden left Trump, but sob stories about laid-off workers and how “lives are at stake.' ” . . .
