In Paterson, New Jersey, the local Muslims show their hand

Andrea Widburg   

"As the leftists like to say, America is a country of immigrants. However, the immigrants who built this nation came here so that they could become Americans. Muslims, per the Koran's mandates, are coming here so that America can become Muslim." . . .


"Most people don’t spend much time thinking about Paterson, New Jersey. It’s time, though, that they start to do so, because unfolding there is the perfect example of the fact that many Muslims believe the Islamic doctrine that says you don’t immigrate to assimilate; you do so to conquer.

"Paterson is a town with a long history. The Dutch took the region from the Acquackanonk tribe and the British took it from the Dutch. After the Revolution, the town itself was founded, it was one of the first great manufacturing towns, thanks to the energy derived from the Great Falls of the Passaic River. Eventually, Paterson was home to textile mills, firearm manufacturers (Samuel Colt started, but didn’t stay, there), and breweries. Industry meant immigrants, but, until recently, these immigrants wanted to assimilate to the American way.

"But things are changing in Paterson. Of its almost 160,000 people, 25,000 to 30,000 are Muslims, almost all of whom are clustered in Paterson’s south side. This means it has the second-largest Muslim population in the U.S. per capita—that is, coming up on 20% of the population—putting it second only to Dearborn, MI, which clocks in at 55% Muslim. 

"At 20%, the Muslims in Paterson aren’t the largest group demographic (Hispanics are, at 62%), but Muslims do something that other minority groups don’t: They vote. They now have three council members, making them 30% of the voice on the council. One can assume that the remaining council members in this strongly Democrat town are sympathetic to Muslim issues.

Here’s what happens in an American city with a Muslim population of almost 20% and a town council representation of 30%: . . ."

Activists Chant 'Death To America And Israel' In Farsi At Chicago Left-Wing Meet   Leaked Footage Shows How Dangerous Pro-Palestine Activists Are Getting - YouTube  "Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” shares a DM clip of pro-Palestine activist Shabbir Rizvi teaching activists at the Anti-War Committee Chicago how to chant “death to America” and “death to Israel” in Farsi." Agitator behind ‘Death to America’ chants in Chicago contributes to Iran state TV, Hezbollah-linked channel (msn.com)

I do not know which I find more disgusting; the foreign Iranians in our land chanting "Death to America!" or the Americans who, like sheep, were happy to be led by those who wanted to murder all Jews. ("Zionist Freaks", he said!) If I were chanting along with them after learning the bare-handed murder of Jewish babies, I'd be masked as well. TD

A ‘Putin’s Puppet’ President? Obama’s Truly Shocking Record

M. Walter  

"Next, Obama (via Secretary of State Hillary Clinton) makes his intentions tangible with a gift. A literal reset button,. Except… oops. Turns out “peregruzka,” the word they had printed on the button, means “overloaded” or “overcharged.' ” . . .


"We hear a lot of talk about how Trump has “upset norms,” and “abandoned our allies” to “side with a dictator,” but so far as I can tell, while Trump is “siding” with Putin, nobody has ever accused him of “wooing” Putin. “Wooing” isn’t even my word. It’s the Washington Post’s and it’s not about Trump. It’s about Obama. In May 2012, having watched Obama debase himself for the better part of four years, the Post had had enough and called it “wooing.” Trump’s been accused of pretty much everything as it relates to Putin, but never “wooing.”

In fact, a very good argument could be made that Obama’s 2008-2012 first term “wooing” softened the ground for Putin’s geopolitical adventurism ever since.

When one reviews Obama’s table-setting rhetorical blunders and truly shocking betrayals of allies, stripped of the whipped cream of the legacy media, it makes it painfully easy to see who was, in reality, “aligned with Putin” and was, in fact, his “puppet.”

It starts a month before the 2008 general election. In the final, October presidential debate, Obama makes his intentions clear: ‘We simply cannot return to a “cold war posture“ with Russia." . . .

No Nation Wants the Gazans

 San Diego Jewish World 

 . . ."The thousands of Gazan fighters and “civilians” tearing into Israeli communities across the border stealing, raping, and killing convinced all (except the few die-hard, Marxist Israelis) that a Palestinian state next to Israel is the worst idea." . . .

Toon added  by TD

"KFAR SABA, Israel — The Jerusalem Post has editorialized “Those who have called for ceasefires, who have demanded negotiations with Hamas, must now ask themselves: How do you negotiate with monsters? How do you make peace with those who murder babies and celebrate their deaths? Hamas-supporting parents and their children stood by in Gaza, watching the spectacle of Israeli children’s bodies being paraded around.”

"The editorial continued: “What kind of society allows such evil to flourish? Israel must respond with the full force of its power. This is no longer just about retrieving hostages; this is about eradicating a force of pure evil. There is no justification, no rationalization, and no compromise to be made with those who revel in the suffering of innocents.”

"Israel’s war with Hamas and Gaza is far from over. Similar Israeli fighting against terrorists is ongoing in Lebanon and in Judea & Samaria (aka West Bank). But Gaza is much worse, because many Israeli captives are still held there by Hamas. Israel’s hands are somewhat tied because: a) Hamas will never give up all the hostages, who are their main protection; b) extensive bombing may inadvertently kill hostages; c) the ‘world’ blames Israel for destroying Gaza and puts roadblocks in front of the Israeli government, handicapping IDF actions.

"During this period, intensive negotiations are going on among Israel, the US, and significant Arab countries to plan the next few decades in Gaza. Hamas is still the most powerful force there, defending itself against Israel’s war aim of ousting it from power. Up to and including the present, the Palestinian Arabs in Gaza have been prevented from escaping the war zone, except for some thousands who successfully bribed their way over the border with Egypt. (This reminds one of East Germany, where citizens were also prevented from leaving the country.)

"Egypt won’t allow the Gazans into the relatively huge, sparsely populated Sinai Peninsula, because Egypt doesn’t want additional terrorists in the Sinai, which already has many hyper-jihadist fighters. Nor does Jordan want them, because its population is already about 3/4 Palestinian Arabs, who are cousins of the Gazans. The shaky Hashemite dynasty fears more Palestinian Arabs entering Jordan would cause its ouster. Without continuous American and Israeli support, King Abdullah would already be mimicking Syria’s Bashar al-Assad, living the ‘good life’ in exile with treasure stolen from his former subjects. Many Arab nations have expelled Palestinian Arabs from their countries. See Note 1 below.

"Israel wants no connection to the Gazans and has every right to refuse partnering with them, or with the Palestinian Authority in the Jewish homeland of Judea & Samaria. The ‘sacred’ 2-state solution is dead and buried as far as even leftist Israelis are concerned. Not only that – 70% of Gazans want to destroy Israel and murder the Jews, not rebuild their ruined statelet. If there ever was significant approval of “two states living side by side in peace,” current events have extinguished it. See: https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-840517" . . .

The Joe Biden 'Now They Tell Us' Phenomenon

 Victor Davis Hanson   

"I work at a hospital, but I’m not medical personnel. I told all the nurses and doctors that if you voted for Biden and you couldn’t see the onset of dementia, I don’t want you to be my caretaker. I get a lot of shocked looks." Comment to this post.

 "Why is it that reports of former President Joe Biden’s failing mental acuity are just now coming out? Victor Davis Hanson asks this question on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“ 'I don't know if you've noticed, everyone, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, they all knew about Joe Biden's dementia. Suddenly we're given all of these revealing quotes that he was completely physically and mentally unfit to carry out the oath of office. But we all knew that. “ 'Why all of a sudden are we no longer crazy that Joe Biden was not fit as a fiddle, that the quarantine was a mess, that Brett Kavanaugh was not a rapist or sexual assaulter, that there's more to January 6th than we're told? And I could go on and on about these 11th-hour." revelations.' "

ICE arrests Palestinian leader of Columbia’s anti-Israel protests, revoking student visa and green card: lawyer

 NY Post  

“These protesters were handing out materials from terrorist organizations Hamas and Hezbollah. Every American citizen should be concerned when students are encouraging terrorist activities on US soil regardless of their nationality.” 

Activist Mahmoud Khalil was arrested Sunday, his attorney Amy Greer told AP.

"President Trump is giving this anti-Israel campus rabble-rouser a ticket to study abroad — for good.

"A Palestinian activist who led a coalition of twisted radicals seeking the “total eradication of Western civilization” responsible for riotous protests at Columbia University and Barnard College has been arrested by ICE agents, according to his lawyer.

"Columbia University Apartheid Divest leader Mahmoud Khalil, who completed his graduate studies at Columbia in December, also potentially faces having his visa revoked and his green card canceled following Trump’s crackdown on unrest at colleges, attorney Amy Greer said Sunday.

"He was inside his university-owned apartment a few blocks from the Ivy League campus Saturday night when ICE agents entered and took him into custody, Greer said.

"Despite graduating months ago, Khalil, who earned his undergraduate degree in Beirut, still lived in school-provided housing due to a policy allowing students to remain on campus after graduating, a source told The Post." . . .

"The news comes just days after Trump announced plans to yank about $400 million in federal grants and contracts from Columbia due to its noncompliance with anti-discrimination laws."

Victor Davis Hanson: Trump’s Democratic ‘Allies’

 American Greatness 

 "Democrats’ obsessive Trump hatred blinds them to their own unpopularity, making his counter-revolution seem inevitable—and even normal." 

"Former Clinton strategist James Carville has reinvented himself at age 80 as a sage Democrat podcaster. His predictions—remember, a victorious Kamala Harris?—are usually wrong. He enjoys engaging in public duels with celebrities to gain online clicks and media appearances.

"Yet sometimes he appears judicious in his effort to return his party to the Clinton glory days of 1992-2000, before the takeover of the party by the lunatic left. That said, he too has become part of the new left nihilism he supposedly despises.

"Most recently, Dr. Carville diagnosed Donald Trump as suffering from tertiary syphilis. Carville’s “proof” was his identification of a bruise on Trump’s much-used shaking hand, along with his supposed brain dementia. As confirmation, Carville described Trump as a “fat f—ing slob” with a “beached whale body.” So, a once top Democratic strategist has gone from his 1992 iconic campaign reminder, “It’s the economy, stupid,” to smearing Trump as a fat slob with syphilis. Carville’s descent sums up his entire party."  

 "Meanwhile, the congressional Democratic opposition finds itself loudly and proudly standing with only 20-30 percent of the American people on matters from biological males competing in female sports to an open border. For years, Democrats claimed the lack of “comprehensive immigration reform” prevented them from securing the border and stopping a 10-12 million influx of illegal aliens. And then they went quiet when Trump, without any new legislation, simply enforced existing immigration statutes and nearly eliminated all illegal entries.

"Defeated candidate Kamala Harris is still trying to reassure donors that she did not know how she blew millions of dollars in last-minute 2024 campaign gifts by paying off the likes of Oprah, Al Sharpton, and Cardi B for interviews and endorsements while flying young staffers around the country on rented private jets.

"The Democratic Congress under Chuck Schumer and Hakim Jeffries demonstrates their opposition to Trump by cutting videos in which party luminaries promise to stop the “sh-t.” Fellow Democratic congresswomen rivaled them with a worse ad in which they dressed in macho kickboxing attire and clumsily gyrated as if they were punching out their conservative opponents.

"At Trump’s first congressional address, most Democrats did not stand when a young survivor of a brain tumor was honored by receiving an honorary Secret Service membership. Instead, many of them displayed hand-held, bingo-like-placards attacking Elon Musk as a thief." . . .

"And Democrats almost daily apparently want the American people to witness their venom—and thereby to be revolted by them."

Women’s Day used to be about celebrating women Now it’s a stage for men to lecture them about their own identity. Unreal.

. . ."during a women’s march on International Women’s Day. Beyond parody"

Biden autopen signature appears on almost every document, report finds

 UK Daily Mail   

"'WHOEVER CONTROLLED THE AUTOPEN CONTROLLED THE PRESIDENCY,' the Oversight Project wrote in a post on X on Thursday."

Signature Machines - The Autopen Company

"Many documents signed by President Joe Biden were done so using an autopen, according to a new report by an arm of the conservative Heritage Foundation, sparking questions over who was pulling the strings during the former president's four years in office. 

" 'WHOEVER CONTROLLED THE AUTOPEN CONTROLLED THE PRESIDENCY,' the Oversight Project wrote in a post on X on Thursday.

" 'We gathered every document we could find with Biden's signature over the course of his presidency. All used the same autopen signature except for the announcement that the former President was dropping out of the race last year,' it continued.

"The report comes after Biden's four-year presidency was hampered by accusations and concerns over his mental acuity and fitness to serve. 

"The former president dramatically exited the 2024 presidential race last July just months before Election Day after insisting for most of his time in office that he could serve a second term. " . . .

HOW TO SPOT AUTOPEN AUTOGRAPHS — JustCollecting  

"Autopen signatures can be the bane of many collectors' lives. An autopen is a machine that copies a person's signature and then reproduces it at a rate many times faster than could normally be done - some top celebrities even have several autopens with slightly altered autographs, making it even more difficult to tell which is the real thing. However, follow my advice and you should be well on your way." ... 

Broc Smith

The Oversight Project is questioning "who controlled the autopen" because "they controlled the presidency."
 "We gathered every document we could find with Biden's signature over the course of his presidency. All used the same autopen signature except for the announcement that the former President was dropping out of the race last year," the organization wrote on X alongside examples of Biden's autopen signature."

We saw the cuckoos nest at the Trump speech before Congress

Democrats Who Disrupted Trump's Speech Were Forced Into 'Come to Jesus' Meeting With Party Leaders After: Report | IBTimes   . . ." ,They are not being talked to like they are children. We are helping them understand why their strategy is a bad idea," the source told the outlet.

"Discontent with the tactics was illustrated by the fact that 10 Democrats joined Republicans in voting in favor of censuring Al Green on Thursday for his behavior. Green's shouting was drowned out by Republicans who changed "U.S.A.!" as Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) warned him to sit down. When Green refused, Vice President JD Vance signaled for his removal." . . .

. . ."The Democrats who voted to censure Green were: Ami Bera (California), Ed Case (Hawaii) Jim Costa (California), Laura Gillen (New York), Jim Himes (Connecticut), Chrissy Houlahan (Pennsylvania), Marcy Kaptur (Ohio) , Jared Moskowitz (Florida), Marie Gluesenkamp, Perez (Washington), Tom Suozzi (New York)."

In their zeal to join in the attacks on Israel, women’s and feminist groups ignore the daily brutalization of women by Hamas and the Palestinian Authority.

The American Spectator   

. . ."organizations, such as … Hamas … have explicitly divorced Palestinian women from various fundamental human rights."

Danielle Waldman, 24-years-old, was murdered by Hamas terrorists at
 the Supernova music festival near the Gaza border on October 7

"Since the latest outbreak of the Israel-Palestine Conflict on October 7th, the state of Israel has been relentlessly accused of systematically oppressing and abusing Palestinian women and girls.
"In fact, numerous political pundits have used International Women’s Day as the impetus to attack the state of Israel for the abuses that Palestinian women have allegedly been forced to endure since the latest outbreak of the Israel-Palestine Conflict on October 7th.
"For example, various UN representatives and women’s rights advocates, such as Reem Alsalem, the UN Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women and Girls, and Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in the Palestinian Territory, recently issued an official statement wherein they claimed that the state of Israel has subjected women and children in Gaza to an “Onslaught of violence” and that “[Palestinian] women are being targeted by Israel with … vicious, indiscriminate, and disproportionate attacks, seemingly sparing no means to destroy their lives and deny them their fundamental human rights..”
"Unfortunately, despite the fact that they claim to care deeply about the plight of every beleaguered woman and girl in the Gaza strip, the West Bank, and around the world, the overwhelming majority of all women’s rights advocates and organizations have refused to hold the Palestinian government and Palestinian organizations, such as Hamas and the Palestinian Authority, at all accountable for the horrific human rights violations and abuses that they have callously inflicted upon women and girls in Israel and Palestine alike.
"Firstly, countless avowed women’s rights advocates and self-professed feminists throughout the international political system have all elected to ignore the depraved violence and sexual abuse, as well as the innumerable human rights violations, that Israeli women have been forced to suffer as a result of Hamas’ attacks on October 7th.
"For example, Amit Soussana, one of the hostages that Hamas captured on October 7th, recently confirmed that, during her time as a Hamas captive, she was consistently subjected to dire human rights violations, and routinely forced to endure various grotesque forms of rape and sexual assault, as well as innumerable savage beatings.

Here's a 10-Minute Video That Obliterates the Liberal Media's Protection of Joe Biden

Matt Vespa    

"On day one, his staff noticed he was losing his marbles and did whatever they could to hide this from the public."


. . ."Here's the quintessential video that obliterates the protection the establishment press afforded the former president, sticking to the script despite Joe being a mumbling, confused mess before the nation. The top talking point was “fiery,” repeated so often that it could be a drinking game. Kudos to Matt Orfela who clipped this work of art, exposing the Democrat-media complex:"

                  The “fiery” state of the union pic.twitter.com/coaP6As2HA

. . ." Yes, Biden was “fiery” but not in the way liberals wanted, especially when he imploded during the June debate with Donald Trump on CNN. That debacle was an election-killing event. 

"It’s funny since the media honestly thought Biden’s last State of the Union address would be the point where he’d turn the corner, the age issues would fade, and confidence renewed in his ability to lead the country—all of which got vaporized in six months. Biden was never meant to be president. In the end, that was the genuine buyer’s remorse, as time and again he and his staff proved to be beyond incompetent and almost psychopathic in their desire to destroy the country." . . .

Does mourning brutally murdered children who are white mean you are a ‘white supremacist?' Some leftists think so

Eric Utter  

"No sooner had Israel lowered the bodies of the two murdered Bibas children into their graves, than radical leftists began accusing Jews of ‘white supremacy’ for mourning them."  Front Page Magazine 


"According to Front Page Magazine's Daniel Greenfield, leftists say that white folks like me can’t even mourn our dead children anymore … unless we wish to exhibit our virulent “white supremacy” in doing so.

Members of the terrorist group Hamas brutally murdered 9-month-old Kfir Bibas, his brother, 4-year-old Ariel Bibas -- and their 33-year-old mother Shiri -- and subsequently paraded their locked coffins around Gaza before eventually handing them over to Israeli authorities.

In light of this horrific tragedy, the Empire State Building and a number of other national landmarks temporarily changed their colors to orange to honor the two redheaded children, while various other entities and people also memorialized them in some way.

Which didn’t sit well with many leftists" . . .

. . ."It is disgusting that Democrats seem to side with Hamas and the crazed Palestinians more than they do with Israel. Then again, Democrats didn’t even stand up or clap for a black child with brain cancer who was being granted his fondest wish during President Trump's joint address to Congress. Hamas terrorists are evil effing monsters.

"But their supporters are even worse." . . .
