NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani: U.S. Immigration Policy Should Be Guided by Islam and the Prophet Muhammed

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is using his Muslim faith to justify his views on immigration enforcement and wants America to follow suit.

Mamdani held a press conference on Friday to speak about ICE and immigration policy in the United States. As TGP readers know, Madani has vowed not to cooperate with the Trump Administration on getting rid of criminal illegal aliens in the Big Apple.

At one point in the press conference, Mamdani cited Islam to push an open borders agenda. He claimed Islam was built on a narrative of migration and noted that Muhammad was once a stranger too.

Then, he quoted a few sections of the Quran to continue justifying his radical migration stance.

When he finished, the audience erupted into applause.

MAMDANI: I think that freedom from suffering that Buddhism teaches us is only possible if we remove the three poisons of desire, hatred, and ignorance from our daily lives.

We have the power to set ourselves free.

I consider my own faith, Islam, a religion built upon a narrative of migration.

The story of the Hijrah reminds us that Prophet Muhammad was a stranger too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in Medina.

(quoting Quran) As for those who immigrate in the cause of Allah who are being persecuted, we will surely bless them with a good home in this world.

Or as the Prophet Muhammad said, Islam began as something strange and will go back to being strange. So glad tidings to the strangers

Mamdani went on to brag about how his administration is coaching illegal aliens on what to do if ICE approaches them.

Scientists Publish ‘Map’ for How Aluminum in Vaccines Can Cause Brain Injury That Triggers Autism

Aluminum adjuvants in vaccines can and likely do cause autism in genetically susceptible babies and children, according to a new scientific review of over 200 peer-reviewed studies.

The review, led by Children’s Health Defense (CHD) Chief Scientific Officer Brian Hooker, lays out the biochemical and physiological framework that explains how aluminum-containing vaccines can cause autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Hooker and his co-authors concluded that “mechanistic, neuropathological, epidemiological, and genetic evidence” show that aluminum adjuvants “can trigger ASD in genetically susceptible individuals” by causing inflammation of the brain.

They published their report on Jan. 31 on the preprint server Zenodo. They plan to submit the paper to a peer-reviewed journal in the near future.

Review refutes claim that ‘vaccines do not cause autism’

Hooker called the report “groundbreaking” because it scientifically explains the causal link between vaccines and autism that “has been denied and dismissed for over 30 years.”

In November 2025, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) finally revised its autism webpage to say there is no evidence supporting the blanket claim that vaccines do not cause autism.

The webpage previously stated there is no link between vaccines and autism and that “vaccines do not cause autism.” It now says: “The claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.”

Hooker’s new paper adds weight to the argument that infant vaccines cause autism. Its authors show how the over 200 studies they reviewed collectively meet all nine of the Bradford Hill criteria for causation.

Is This the End of Transgender Hysteria?

A few years ago, things looked pretty bleak for skeptics of transgenderism — those of us who have great compassion for those afflicted by what the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders long referred to as the “disorder” of gender dysphoria, but who refuse to accept the lie that a man can become a woman or a woman can become a man.

During the 2020 presidential race, then-candidate Joe Biden tweeted, “Transgender equality is the civil rights issue of our time.” As president in 2023, Biden followed up by stating, “Transgender people are some of the bravest Americans I know.” That same year, the transgender fad achieved unprecedented reach among impressionable youngsters: While Gallup reported that (an already-high) 7 percent of all Americans identified as LGBTQ, that number soared to 20 percent of all Gen Z — and as high as 38 percent on some elite Ivy League campuses. 

But the social craze began to face setbacks. In the UK, the National Health Service’s Cass Review cast substantial doubt on the underlying scientific evidence purporting to support “gender-affirming care.” Enterprising investigative journalists, such as Christopher F. Rufo, began to expose rampant ethical concerns with America’s gender clinics. Polling began to reflect broader concerns with the transgender narrative on issues such as women’s athletic competition. President Donald Trump, intuiting that law can shape culture just as culture can shape law, signed numerous transgender-related executive orders in the first few weeks of his second term.

Now, it seems the dam may be breaking.

In a landmark legal judgment on Jan. 30, a 22-year-old biological woman named Fox Varian was awarded $2 million in the Westchester County Supreme Court. Varian, a “detransitioner,” had an irreversible double mastectomy when she was 16 years old. The New York court held her psychologist and surgeon liable for $1.6 million for past and future suffering, and an additional $400,00 for any future medical expenses. Varian, whose mother initially opposed the operation but consented following the surgeon’s “emphatic” insistence, became deeply depressed following the procedure. Now, she has become the first “detransitioner” to win a medical malpractice lawsuit at trial.

Supposedly Autistic Woman’s Tale of Being Abused and Arrested by ICE Officers for No Reason Blows Up in Her Face When This Damning Footage Emerges

A left-wing activist’s ‘gutwrenching’ testimony about getting arrested by ICE agents last month has so spectacularly backfired that she might find herself in legal hot water.

Aliyah Rahman, an American citizen and allegedly autistic, told a congressional panel on Tuesday she was on her way to an appointment with Hennepin County’s Traumatic Brain Injury Center last month when she encountered ICE agents supposedly blocking the road and had no way of getting around them.

She then said she was forced to pull into a blocked intersection after an ICE agent allegedly yelled, “Move, I will break your f***ing window!”

Rahman went on to say she received conflicting threats from agents, which confused her. The agents then busted her window and dragged her out of the car.

When Rahman told the agents she was disabled, one agent supposedly replied, “Too late.”

She next described her supposed pain while the cops pulled her away, and then claimed without evidence that she was denied access to medical care.

Florida plans to become first state to eliminate all childhood vaccine mandates

Florida plans to become the first state to eliminate vaccine mandates, a longtime cornerstone of public health policy for keeping schoolchildren and adults safe from infectious diseases.

State Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo, who announced the decision Wednesday, cast current requirements in schools and elsewhere as “immoral” intrusions on people’s rights that hamper parents’ ability to make health decisions for their children.

“People have a right to make their own decisions, informed decisions,” Ladapo, who has frequently clashed with the medical establishment, said at a news conference in Valrico. “They don’t have the right to tell you what to put in your body. Take it away from them.”

Florida’s move, a significant departure from decades of public policy and research that has shown vaccines to be safe and the most effective way to stop the spread of communicable diseases, especially among schoolchildren, is a notable embrace of the Trump administration’s agenda led by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime anti-vaccine activist.

Reuters Claims Office of DNI Investigated Puerto Rico Election Machines For “Claims That Venezuela Had Hacked Voting Machines” in the U.S. Territory

In June of 2024, Puerto Rico encountered numerous problems while conducting their primary elections.  The Gateway Pundit reported that vote counts were reported as lower than the paper counts.  Some voting systems reversed totals, while some reported zero votes for certain candidates.  The discrepancies were attributed to a “software issue,” according to the Puerto Rico Election Commission’s interim president at the time, Jessika Padilla-Rivera.

There wasn’t much reporting on the American territory and the problems they had surrounding that election.  However, it did cause the election commission in the territory to call into question its contract with Dominion Voting Systems prior to the November 2024 election.

In an “exclusive” story published on Wednesday, Reuters claimed that a team working for Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard “led an investigation into Puerto Rico’s voting machines,” according to Gabbard’s office and three sources familiar with the previously unreported events.

Reuters reported:

The sources said the goal was to work with the FBI to investigate claims that Venezuela had hacked voting machines in Puerto Rico, but added the probe did not produce any clear evidence of Venezuelan interference in the U.S. territory’s elections. Reuters first reported the investigation.

Gabbard’s office, in a statement to Reuters, confirmed the May investigation but denied a link to Venezuela, saying its focus was on vulnerabilities in the island’s electronic voting systems. Her team took an unspecified number of Puerto Rico’s voting machines and additional copies of data from the machines as part of its investigation, a spokesperson for Gabbard’s Office of the Director of National Intelligence said.

A source with direct knowledge of the investigation confirmed that the event in May did happen, but it was not tied to any specific claim of Venezuelan interference, nor was the scope of the investigation specific to foreign interference.  However, there was evidence of foreign involvement discovered, but no country was pointed out specifically by our source.

Red flags raised over Chinese communist academics inside U.S. colleges developing advanced tech

A new watchdog report is raising concerns that elite American colleges developing advanced technology with military applications have been “infiltrated” by academics who are card-carrying members of the Chinese Communist Party.

The conservative, nonprofit American Accountability Foundation reported it found nearly two dozen Chinese academics working at elite U.S. schools and labs “who, because of the dual-use threat of their research, close ties to the military research sector in China, and/or clear ties to the Chinese Communist Party should be expelled from the United States or never be re-admitted.”

A review by Just the News found at least three Chinese academics affiliated with U.S. universities who have been repeatedly described as members of the CCP, and another Chinese scientist tied to an American college who is a leader within another CCP-controlled Chinese political party.

The new report came out the same week it was revealed that an illegal biolab in California inspected by federal authorities in 2023 and a separate hazardous lab inside a Las Vegas garage searched by the FBI this weekend. Both labs appear tied to a CCP-linked Chinese national who is currently in federal detention awaiting trial for fraud, false statements, and the adulteration of medical devices.

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., the chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigation, told Just the News that the explosion of the number of Chinese academics on U.S. soil was a direct consequence of the Biden administration’s open borders policies and its decision to shut down the FBI’s main counterintelligence program vetting Chinese threats inside U.S. academia.

“Whenever I read these stories, I think back to the start of the Biden administration, where they canceled the program within the Department of Justice to investigate the theft of U.S. intellectual property and universities,” Johnson said in an interview on the Just the News, No Noise television show.

German Transgender Antifa Radical Sentenced to Eight Years in Prison in Hungary

A German transgender Antifa radical has been sentenced to eight years in prison in Hungary over a string of far-left attacks in Budapest.

In February of 2023, the infamous “Hammer Gang” Antifa cell allegedly targeted supposed “neo-Nazis” in Budapest, amid an annual celebration of the Hungarian troops that allied with the Waffen SS against the Soviet Red Army during the Siege of Budapest in 1945.

According to prosecutors, the Antifa radicals snuck up behind their victims before hitting them in the head with clubs and continuing to beat them as they fell to the ground, leaving some with life-threatening injuries and fractures to their skulls, Magyar Nemzet reports.

The leftist gang was also said to target anyone whom they suspected of being right-wing, regardless of whether they were actually attending the ceremony.

The Antifa cell — which the Trump administration recently designated as a foreign terrorist organisation — allegedly included “Maja T.”, who was provisionally sentenced to eight years in prison this week by the Budapest Municipal Court.

Maja, who identifies as “non-binary”, claimed that the decision was politically motivated and that it was made to appease Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who also recently classified Antifa as a terrorist group.

“Of course, I see the Hungarian government’s efforts to influence the independence of the court,” the activist said.

Epstein files reveal deeper ties to scientists than previously known

Newly released files from the investigation of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein reveal that his ties to the scientific community were deeper than previously known.

Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 after being arrested and charged with sex trafficking, was a wealthy financier who invested millions in science projects and socialized with researchers. It was already known that, after Epstein’s initial conviction for sex crimes in 2008, some scientists continued to associate with and take money from him, prompting fallout at top research institutions. For instance, Epstein gave US$800,000 to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, which led two scientists to resign and the university to suspend another.

But last Friday’s release of more than three million files linked to Epstein — including e-mails, photographs and financial documents — has unveiled even more scientists in his orbit. Mentions of the researchers do not indicate wrongdoing or involvement in Epstein’s criminal activity, but they do shed light on how deeply he was involved in some of the science he funded. This is the largest batch of files made public by the US Department of Justice since Congress passed the Epstein Transparency Act late last year, mandating that the federal government release all documents pertaining to the financier.

Science stars

The files include new information about interactions between Epstein and scientists whose links to him were already known. For example, the documents contain correspondence from theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss, whose science-outreach organization received $250,000 from Epstein. “I thought we agreed no comment !!!!!,” Epstein wrote in 2018, as Krauss responded to media inquiries about an investigation of sexual misconduct that led to Krauss’s ousting from Arizona State University in Tempe.

Krauss explained his interaction with Epstein in an e-mail to Nature: “I sought out advice from essentially everyone I knew when false allegations about me were circulated.” He added that he had no knowledge of the “horrendous crimes” — the sex trafficking — that Epstein was later accused of. “I was as shocked as the rest of the world when he was arrested.”

Roman Catholic church worker who stole £100,000 that could have been used to help the homeless and food banks to fund a ‘high lifestyle’ avoids jail

A church worker has avoided jail after stealing nearly £100,000 from the Diocese of Westminster, money that could have been used to support the homeless and food banks. 

Francisca Yawson, 37, made nine bank transfers to herself while she was a gift aid and operations technician for the central London division of the Roman Catholic Church between September 2018 and August 2019, Southwark Crown Court heard.

Yawson, who gave birth to her fourth child in October, previously pleaded guilty to nine counts of theft and was sentenced on Friday to two years in prison, suspended for two years.

Judge Mark Weekes said: ‘All in all, you were funding yourself to a reasonably good standard of lifestyle – grossly and dishonestly.’

Judge Weekes said that the money could have been used to help the homeless and families fed through food banks, adding that it would be on her ‘conscience’ that children may have gone hungry ‘while you were helping yourself to a high lifestyle’.

He said that the case had seen a ‘shocking’ delay after police wrongfully closed the investigation between 2021 and 2025, which he said had produced a ‘different outcome’.

The judge said that had sentencing for her ‘meanness and selfishness’ taken place in 2019 or 2020, she would likely have been jailed.

He told her that she was ‘lucky because of the passage of time’, urging her to reflect on ‘the very real damage you caused to people less fortunate than you’.
