The Real Outrage in Yemen

Beginning in March of 2017 and for the following eight years, at 11:00 a.m. on every Saturday morning, a group of New Yorkers has assembled in Manhattan’s Union Square for “the Yemen vigil.” Their largest banner proclaims: “Yemen is Starving.” Other signs say: “Put a human face on war in Yemen,” and “Let Yemen Live.”

Participants in the vigil decry the suffering in Yemen where one of every two children under the age of five is malnourished, “a statistic that is almost unparalleled across the world.” UNICEF reports that 540,000 Yemeni girls and boys are severely and acutely malnourished, an agonizing, life-threatening condition which weakens immune systems, stunts growth, and can be fatal.

The World Food Program says that a child in Yemen dies once every ten minutes, from preventable causes, including extreme hunger. According to Oxfam, more than 17 million people, almost half of Yemen’s population, face food insecurity, while aerial attacks have decimated much of the critical infrastructure on which its economy depends.

Since March 15, the United States has launched strikes on more than forty locations across Yemen in an ongoing attack against members of the Houthi movement, which has carried out more than 100 attacks on shipping vessels linked to Israel and its allies since October 2023. The Houthis say they are acting in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza and have recently resumed the campaign following the failed ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

The new round of U.S. airstrikes has damaged critical ports and roads which UNICEF describes as “lifelines for food and medicine,” and killed at least twenty-five civilians, including four children, in the first week alone. Of the thirty-eight recorded strikes, twenty-one hit non-military, civilian targets, including a medical storage facility, a medical center, a school, a wedding hall, residential areas, a cotton gin facility, a health office, Bedouin tents, and Al Eiman University. The Houthis claim that at least fifty-seven people have died in total.

Irish Government Freezes Christian Teacher’s Bank Account After He Refused to Use Gender-Neutral Pronouns

The Irish government has frozen the bank account of an Irish teacher after his continued refusal to use gender-neutral pronouns for a student at Wilson’s Hospital School. Enoch Burke, who has spent more than 500 days in jail for refusing to comply with a court order, also had his salary payments halted.

Burke attempted to withdraw funds from his Bank of Ireland account last week but found that he was unable to access his money. The account reportedly holds over €40,000—his personal savings from years of work. The Irish government and courts have frozen these funds and are set to seize them next week.

Burke was previously jailed for contempt of court after refusing to comply with an injunction barring him from entering Wilson’s Hospital School, where he had been suspended following a dispute over the use of transgender pronouns.

The freezing of his bank account marks an unprecedented escalation in the legal battle. Burke maintains that he was upholding the Christian ethos of his school and acting according to his beliefs. The Irish courts have ruled against him at multiple stages, leading to fines, jail time, and now the freezing of his assets.

Nurses at Massachusetts hospital concerned about growing number of cancer cases among staff

Nurses at Newton-Wellesley Hospital say they’re concerned about growing numbers of cancer cases among longtime nurses who have been working on a fifth-floor maternal care ward. “You’re going into work every day with that feeling in your gut, and it’s a lousy feeling,” a nurse who doesn’t want to be identified tells WBZ-TV. 

She’s speaking out after being diagnosed with a brain tumor and says she’s not alone among her nursing colleagues. “It’s getting to the point where the number just increases, and you start saying am I crazy thinking this,” she said. “This can’t just be a coincidence.” 

Nurses diagnosed with brain tumors

She claims as many as ten nurses who work on the floor have been diagnosed with different brain tumors over the last few years, some cancerous and some not. She says three have had surgery and believes the hospital has not been supportive enough. 

“We want reassurance because this has not been a reassuring past few months for a lot of the staff members,” she said. “We want to feel safe, the same way we want to make our patients feel safe.” 

The hospital confirms it has been investigating since December and has interviewed ten nurses, six of whom it says have differing brain tumors.

Greenland status quo ‘not an option,’ Danish minister says after Vance visit

Denmark is open to discussions with the U.S. on how to “fix” the status quo in Greenland, the country’s foreign minister said, after Vice President JD Vance accused Copenhagen of failing to adequately protect the Arctic island during a controversial visit on Friday.

In a post to X addressed to Denmark’s “dear American friends” late Friday, Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said his nation agrees that the “status quo” in the Arctic “is not an option.”

“So let’s talk about how we can fix it — together,” Rasmussen wrote.

In a video statement, Rasmussen acknowledged the “many accusations and many allegations” about Greenland. “Of course, we are open to criticism, but let me be completely honest — we do not appreciate the tone in which it’s being delivered.”

“This is not how you speak to your close allies,” Rasmussen continued, “and I still consider Denmark and the United States to be close allies.”

Danish and Greenlandic leaders have pushed back on Trump’s desire to gain control of Greenland. They have simultaneously criticized his perceived overreach while seeking to ease tensions by proposing deeper military and economic cooperation on the Arctic landmass.

“We respect that the United States needs a greater military presence in Greenland, as Vice President Vance mentioned this evening. We — Denmark and Greenland — are very much open to discussing this with you,” Rasmussen said in his statement.

The existing bilateral defense agreement — signed in 1951 — “offers ample opportunity for the United States to have a much stronger military presence in Greenland,” Rasmussen said. “If that is what you wish, then let us discuss it.”

Tesla Protests Turn Violent: Pro-Musk Demonstrator Struck With Car, Woman Beaten On Side Of Road

With all of the leftwing vitriol against billionaire Elon Musk over his Department of Government Efficiency initiative, violence targeting his supporters was bound to happen. In a disturbing incident, 70-year-old Christopher Talbot of Meridian was arrested after allegedly striking a counter-demonstrator at a Tesla Takedown protest near a Tesla dealership. According to the Meridian Police Department (MPD), Talbot is said to have hit a 49-year-old man after making an “obscene gesture” toward the victim around 1:00 pm on Sunday.

The victim, who was reportedly driving a vehicle with a flag in support of President Donald Trump, had parked when Talbot allegedly assaulted him. KTVB reports that the victim received medical treatment at a nearby hospital and was later released with non-life-threatening injuries. Law enforcement subsequently tracked down Talbot at his home in Meridian, where they took him into custody peacefully. He was then transported to Ada County Jail, where he was charged with a single count of aggravated battery.

The Tesla Takedown protest, consisting of a meager 30 demonstrators, was overshadowed by a counter-protest organized by the Idaho Liberty Dogs, which drew nearly 200 participants, according to KTVB. In a hyperbolic social media post, organizers of the anti-Tesla protest declared, “Elon Musk is destroying our democracy, and he’s using the fortune he built from Tesla to do it. We are taking action at Tesla to stop Musk’s illegal coup,” highlighting the intensity of their opposition to Musk’s initiatives.

FLASHBACK: Jasmine Crockett Attacks “Whitewashed” Rep. Byron Donalds for Marrying a White Woman – “Not Our Kinfolk… He’s Like Yes Massa I got it”

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) is facing renewed backlash after a resurfaced video shows her making a racist attack about Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) and his family during a June interview on The Breakfast Club podcast with Charlamagne tha God.

Crockett egregiously accused Donalds of being “whitewashed” because he is married to a White woman. “I feel like they give him his talking points, and he’s like, yes, massa, I got it,” she said.

The two also attacked Donalds and lied about his past comments on black families, accusing him of saying “life was better under Jim Crow.” However, Donalds never said this. Last year, Donalds came under fire from the Democrats for noting that Black people were more conservative before the government’s welfare system and other liberal policies that hurt the black family.

This is not the only time Crockett has shown that she hates other races.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, last month, Crockett went on CNN and condemned “white boys,” saying she’s “tired of the white tears” while defending DEI. She also falsely claimed that white people “commit 80% of the most violent crimes in this country.”

In another racist tirade, this time against Hispanics, she said that Hispanics belong “workin’ the fields” and implied that black people are better than Hispanics.

Crockett has further accused the Hispanic community of having a “slave mentality” and being “barely able to vote.”

This time, she’s disqualifying Byron Donalds as a Black person

Why does she get away with this? Imagine if a White conservative said any other race has a “slave mentality” or attacked another white person for their interracial marriage.

What does she think of Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff?

Canadian Liberal PM Mark Carney Under Fire for Resurfaced Ties to Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew

Labour leader and Canadian Prime Minister has entered a troubling phase in his new political career.

Since the Former Bank of England head dissolved the Parliament and called snap elections, it’s one scandal after another.

Mere days after Carney was accused of plagiarizing his doctoral thesis in Oxford University, he is now getting heckled over his links to Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.

Economic Times reported:

“During a campaign event, Prime Minister Mark Carney was interrupted by a heckler who shouted, ‘How many kids did you molest with Jeffrey Epstein?’ The question left Carney visibly stunned. Security swiftly removed the heckler, but a video of the moment soon went viral.”

This comes as a picture has surfaced of Carney with Ghislaine Maxwell in a music festival back in 2013.

Needless to say, a picture with Maxwell does not a sex-trafficker make – but citizens have started digging on Carney’s history.

Jackson-Hewitt Tax Services Allegedly Caught Handing Out Tax Filing Instructions to Illegal Migrants

With Tax Day a little more than two weeks away, Jackson-Hewitt Tax Services has been caught handing out flyers in New York City allegedly advising illegal migrants on how to get up to $14,000 in tax refunds from the IRS.

According to independent journalist Savanah Hernandez, the company’s representatives are handing out information outside the Roosevelt Hotel migrant shelter with tax filing tips showing illegal aliens how they can get thousands of dollars from the IRS based on how many children they claim to have.

Hernandez presented a flyer that seems to inform the migrants that they can get a $7,650 refund if they claim one child, $12,635 if they have two, and $14,255 for three children.

After Hernandez posted this video to X, Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) chief Elon Musk noted that this sort of fraud is costing America billions and serving to attract illegals to this country.

“IRS refund fraud payments are one of several means used by the Democratic Party to attract and retain illegal immigrants in the USA. That’s why they are so opposed to @DOGE stopping this!” Musk wrote.

“The Democratic Party is aiding and abetting fraudulent government payments to illegals in order to establish a permanent one-party majority nationally, just like they did in California,” he said. “The more you look into it, the crazier it gets.”

Liberal MP Paul Chiang encouraged the abduction of his political opponent. He must be fired!

“Bring him to the Chinese consulate — there’s a million-dollar bounty.”

That’s what Liberal MP Paul Chiang admitted he told a room full of ethnic media, referring to Joe Tay, a Conservative candidate and Canadian citizen, who’s been targeted by a HK$1 million bounty issued by the Hong Kong Police.

Let’s be absolutely clear: this is not a joke. Chiang needs to be fired, and if you agree, please sign the petition.

This is a sitting Member of Parliament encouraging transnational repression on Canadian soil — encouraging people to help the Chinese Communist Party hunt down a Canadian political opponent.

“This is shocking,” said Cheuk Kwan of the Toronto Association for Democracy in China.

And he’s right.

But Paul Chiang’s betrayal isn’t new — it’s just the latest chapter in a pattern of foreign interference and Liberal complicity.

Beijing meddled in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections, backing “China-friendly” Liberals to defeat strong Conservative voices like Kenny Chiu, who dared to call out the Chinese regime’s abuses and tried to bring in a foreign influence registry.

China used WeChat propaganda, targeted disinformation, and community mobilization to tilt key ridings.

And now, ahead of the next federal election, it’s happening again.

Meanwhile, eleven parliamentarians have been implicated in foreign interference — and not one name has been released.

Why? Because the Liberals are too busy protecting their own. Too busy coronating a new leader in a questionable race that excluded 2/3rds of the people wanting to vote, and in a campaign that the Liberals themselves said was contaminated by foreign interference. Too busy proroguing Parliament during a tariff war to pull off a power grab to enact any of the recommendations of the foreign interference commission.

And who did they crown in that suspicious leadership election?

Mark Carney, Trudeau’s unelected successor — a man whose firm, Brookfield, secured a $250 million loan from a Chinese bank just weeks after he became Trudeau’s chief economic advisor.

Foreign interference. Transnational repression. Backroom leadership takeovers. And a Liberal MP joking about handing over his opponent to the dictatorship that’s actively attacking Canadian democracy.

If a Conservative said this, they’d be gone in a heartbeat. But because it’s a Liberal, the media shrugs — and the Prime Minister stays silent.
