Propaganda Press Hides Anti-ICE Motive Behind Latest Act Of Left-Wing Violence

n the latest example of anti-ICE violent extremism, a 43-year-old leftist rioter allegedly set a fire outside a federal building in Manhattan that houses offices for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and federal immigration courts. The suspect reportedly also set off fireworks in the Monday attack and had multiple pellet guns, a machete, three knives, and two axes. But you wouldn’t necessarily know that this violent attack was motivated by anti-ICE sentiment if you happened to skim some of the headlines from the propaganda press.

Andrew Arrabaca is a former U.S. Army Patriot missile systems mechanic, and according to Fox 5, he came to the federal building “armed with six incendiary devices, commercial-grade fireworks, a bucket of suspected gasoline, two axes, a hammer, a machete, three knives and airsoft pellet guns/rifles.” Video captured an individual alleged to be Arrabac pouring liquid outside the entrance to the building Monday morning before setting off fireworks to ignite flames in an attack authorities say was “driven by opposition to federal immigration enforcement.”

“He came armed with bad intentions, looking to injure people and harm people,” Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI’s New York Field Office James Barnacle said, according to Fox 5. “He is an anti-American, anti-government extremist. We know that from what he said post-arrest, and we know that from the actions he tried to take.”

This is all crucial context to the attack, yet the propaganda press purposely obfuscated these details.

Pix 11’s Mira Wassef and James Ford headlined their piece: “Armed man accused of setting off fireworks outside 26 Federal Plaza in NYC: FBI.” The “reporters” did acknowledge the anti-ICE motive in the lede, writing, “An armed man with an anti-ICE agenda was arrested for allegedly setting off fireworks near a federal immigration building in Lower Manhattan Monday morning, authorities said.”

But if Pix 11 knew enough to identify the suspect’s anti-ICE agenda in the first sentence of its story, there was no justification for omitting it from the headline (especially when the motive is central to understanding the attack) — unless of course the outlet wanted to downplay anti-ICE violence because it would hurt the left’s crusade to end immigration enforcement.

Jake Tapper on Discovery of Thousands of Non-Citizen Voters in New Jersey: ‘This is Not Good for Democrats’

As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier today, thousands of non-citizen voters were discovered in New Jersey, allegedly due to a software error.

This is one of those problems that Democrats assure us never happens. It’s one of the main reasons that conservatives want congress to pass the SAVE America Act.

Over on CNN, Jake Tapper responded to the news today by saying that this is ‘not good news for Democrats.’

How about the country, Jake?

This is a window into the minds of people in our media. Note that this is Jake Tapper’s first thought. His first concern is what is or is not good news for Democrats, because that’s who Jake cares about most.

CIA Distances Itself From Trump’s Iran War With Media Leak

It seems that CIA and other US intelligence officials hope to distance themselves from Trump’s Iran war, now with the US-initiated conflict having dragged on for nearly five months (with no end in sight), after White House officials had in the opening days touted a swift, limited military excursion. 

They are leaking intelligence to the press which shows they have assessed that current American strikes on Iran are unlikely to change Iran’s negotiating position. With tankers in Hormuz on fire and others too afraid to move, Iran is vowing that it will keep its leverage over the strait at all costs.

The Washington Post report says that “Iran’s government is unlikely to feel significant impact or soften its negotiating position as a result of new rounds of U.S. military strikes like those now underway, according to a new intelligence assessment described by current and former U.S. officials.”

To a large degree this intel assessment is stating the obvious, which should have been well understood far in advance. It seems intel officials want to get it on record that they predict a quagmire as the White House seeks to extricate itself and the global economy from the crisis (of its own making) in the Gulf. Escalation in air strikes will only further stalemate the situation, the intel analysis forecasts. 

Stating the obvious is further on full display in lines from the WaPo report like the following: “Analysts at American spy agencies also have concluded that Tehran and Washington are, for now, stuck in an indefinite limbo between peace and war, the officials said — an uneasy dynamic given the increasingly deadly nature of the tit-for-tat hostilities between the two nations. The current and former officials spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the assessments because of their sensitivity.”

President Trump has reportedly been briefed on the assessment. According to more:

The latest intelligence report was written primarily by the CIA, where analysts have underscored the Tehran regime’s staying power despite the loss of many of its top leaders and much of its military hardware to U.S. and Israeli attacks. In May, a CIA analysis concluded that Iran could survive a U.S. naval blockade for at least three to four months before facing more severe economic hardship.

As of Monday, Trump previewed harder hits on Iran to come after the killing of multiple US troops in Jordan and neighboring Iraq. At least two died during a ballistic missile attack in Jordan, while one service member was killed in northern Iraq.

Congresswoman Has a Blunt Message for the MSM on ‘Democratic Socialism’

“This is what radical leftism is. It may wear various different slogans and ideologies across place and time. They call themselves anti-capitalist or anti-imperialist, communist, anarchist, Marxist, but the fundamental character is always the same,” Marco Rubio said last week when he hosted the leaders of over 60 different countries to a ministerial on the “resurgence of transnational far-left terrorism.” 

He left out “democratic socialism,” but let’s face it. It’s all the same. And Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-N.Y.) spoke out about that today at a House Republican leadership press conference, warning about the rise of so-called “democratic socialists” and the reality for voters and the media.   

Malliotakis would know. Her mother fled Cuba in 1959 as Fidel Castro took power. The Castro regime stole her family’s home and their small business, a gas station owned by her grandfather. She says her mother never saw her grandfather again after that. I’ve heard countless stories just like that from Venezuelan friends and acquaintances. Communism ruins families. 

“Communism destroys. It steals from the people,” Malliotakis said. “…people end up living in squalor and lack the basic needs that human beings need, and the people that run the regime live as kings. That’s the reality. It’s about power. It’s about consolidating power for a select few.”   

She pointed out that, sadly, that’s exactly what we’re starting to see here in the United States with the winners of several recent primaries and elections. 

“We have Mayor Mamdani, who pushed and is pushing an agenda of government-run supermarkets, abolishing private property rights, and seizing the means of production,” she continued. “…And that is exactly what they did in communist Cuba.”   

The congresswoman pointed out that her Cuban mother says socialism is basically just a step toward communism. The government steals property and wealth and uses it to redistribute and create better lives for themselves, while their constituents suffer. She also pointed out that Democrats want to pack the Supreme Court, but that’s a move straight out of Hugo Chávez’s playbook. As I wrote yesterday, that’s one reason why Venezuela can’t have elections right now. The country’s Supreme Court is stacked in favor of the regime, and it will require dismantling the court, among other institutions, to get there.

Mainstream Media Begins To Report on the Tragedy That Is Ukrainian Forced Mobilization, and How Citizens Have Started To Push Back Violently

It’s a civil war of sorts between the man-catchers and the population at large.

An important part of our reporting on the Ukraine war here on TGP is tracking MSM vehicles finally reporting on themes and developments we have been covering here for months.

In the case of absolute tragedy that is the forced mobilization in Ukraine, it’s a bit sad to see that even in our conservative informational sphere, a lot of people are still not aware of the endless cat-and-mouse game in which the conscription officers attempt to forcibly send civilians to the meat-grinder – it’s called ‘busification’.

And people taken to the limit are led to desperate measures.

Even the ultra-liberal BBC felt compelled to report on this subject with their “‘Everyone’s afraid to die’: Struggle to recruit soldiers in Ukraine turns violent”.

In their report, the Beeb tells the story of soldier Vasyl Krupych, who survived gruesome battles in eastern Donetsk to end up ‘attacked by his own countrymen whilst out searching for draft dodgers’.

(What they call dodgers we call people trying to survive.)

Krupych was badly beaten with a crowbar. He spent six weeks in hospital with broken ribs.

BBC reported:

“Ukraine’s military ombudswoman says such attacks are now ‘regular’ and ‘a major problem’ as the country struggles to mobilize men to fight. […] It’s not a topic people here care to discuss much, wary of feeding Russian propaganda.

But the latest National Police Service report recorded more than 600 assaults on recruitment officers to date and warned that the aggression has become ‘increasingly threatening’.”

Minnesota’s Largest Paper Cheers Tim Walz For Pardoning Child Rapist, Says He Was Justified Because of Jan 6

A man who raped a 10-year-old child repeatedly is now back in his native Laos — no thanks to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who had pardoned the man who had a removal order due to his criminal history.

It took intervention from Secretary of State Marco Rubio to get the man’s legal status revoked after the pardon.

But the biggest paper in Minnesota, the Minnesota Star Tribune, is hailing Gov. Walz’s decision. Their reason to allow a child rapist to walk the streets of Minnesota when it could be deported? The events of Jan. 6, 2021, of course.

One does have to applaud the folks at the Star Tribune for ingenuity, if here unleashed in a manner that is profoundly sick. Tou Lue Vang, the man in question, told investigators he raped the girl in question because in his society, this was considered normal. In fact, he told police this was “a mistake,” but “a minor thing,” and he didn’t mean the victim’s age. Apparently, child rape was little more severe than a fender-bender in his mind.

The fact that he didn’t receive a removal order until earlier this year should have been an outrage in and of itself, but what happened next was why we’re still discussing this. In the intervening years, the convicted child rapist (who ended up just spending eight months in confinement at a county facility despite receiving a 12-year state prison sentence initially) has built a life in the United States, with children of his own.

This was effectively the reason behind the decision to pardon him, which received a 4-2 vote from the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission and a unanimous decision to pardon from Walz, Democrat state Attorney General Keith Ellison, and state Supreme Court Chief Justice Natalie Hudson, a Walz appointee.

“The victim supports this pardon. His [Vang’s] wife stayed and has forgiven. He also [has] immigration concerns. He has remorse and was discharged from probation,” said the head of the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission in her decision.

This NBC News Headline About the Anti-ICE Bombing of a Federal Building in NYC Must be Seen to be Believed

If you spend any time on social media, you will see people sometimes say that you don’t hate the media enough. This story is an example of why people say that.

As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier today, an individual deployed an explosive device outside 26 Federal Plaza in New York City. The person was caught and it was immediately apparent that this individual is virulently anti-ICE.

Here’s how NBC News framed the story. This is a headline for the ages:

Fireworks.

This is why no one likes the media. This is why no one trusts the media.

CBS News did something similar. Take a look:

Everyone knows why they do this. It’s to protect leftists.

Minnesota Paper Faces Backlash After Columnist ‘Cheers’ Tim Walz’s Clemency for Foreign Child Sex Offender

A foreign criminal who repeatedly raped a 10-year-old girl and tried to buy her silence was days from deportation when Minnesota Democrats, led by Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, stepped in to protect him.

Now, Minnesota’s flagship paper, The Minnesota Star Tribune, is facing backlash after columnist Rochelle Olson’s article “Cheers to Gov. Tim Walz,” praised the governor for his decision to defend the pardon.

According to the Department of Homeland Security, Laotian illegal alien pedophile Tou Lue Vang repeatedly raped a 10-year-old girl in Minnesota in 2004 and was issued a deportation order.

Vang even blamed the child and said it’s a “cultural thing to marry and have sex with girls as young as 12.”

Vang served ZERO prison time after pleading guilty.

However, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and the Democrat-controlled Board of Pardons  Tim Walz pardoned Vang, which shielded him from deportation.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio, however, put an end to the madness and announced that Vang’s legal status was revoked and “as a result, federal agents took him into custody, and as of today, he has been removed from the United States.”

Deep State Media Censorship

Something has fundamentally changed in America, and it should concern everyone regardless of politics. The press was never supposed to decide what the public is allowed to hear. Their job was to report the news. Somewhere along the way, they decided their real job was deciding which information is acceptable and which information should be filtered before it ever reaches the public.

When President Trump delivered his address on the newly released election-related documents, several major television networks chose not to carry it in full. ABC and NBC declined to air the speech on their broadcast networks. CBS began airing it but cut away before it concluded, while other outlets focused immediately on commentary and fact-checking rather than simply letting viewers watch the entire address for themselves. Whether one agrees with the President or not is beside the point. The public should be able to hear a presidential address in full and make up its own mind. The editorial decisions themselves became part of the story.

The press increasingly tells people what to think before they have even been allowed to hear what was said. Every story arrives prepackaged with analysis, approved conclusions, and a warning label. The assumption seems to be that the public cannot be trusted to evaluate information on its own. Yet, as the press is refusing to broadcast an announcement from a sitting president, one can see that the legacy media’s loyalty is to the actors behind the curtain. The deep state is controlling the narrative—you’ve been warned.

ABC is no longer simply a television network. It sits inside one of the largest entertainment conglomerates on the planet. Disney acquired ABC decades ago, transforming what was once a standalone broadcaster into another division of a multinational corporation whose interests extend far beyond journalism. When news becomes one business unit among countless others, people naturally begin asking whether protecting the corporate brand becomes just as important as reporting the story.

Democrat Senator Mark Warner Gets Fact-Checked on Virginia Voter ID Laws on Live TV

Democrat Senator Mark Warner got fact-checked on live TV about voter ID amid a debate over President Trump’s push for the Senate to pass the SAVE America Act.

President Trump on Thursday evening delivered a primetime address to the nation about foreign election interference.

The president revealed:

– The DHS found approximately 278,000 non-citizens on the voter rolls

– China accessed 220 million US voter files and the Deep State withheld that information from Trump

– China targeted President Trump during the 2020 election by paying media outlets to write negative stories about him

At the end of his speech, President Trump urged Americans to call their representatives and demand that they pass the SAVE America Act.

The US must secure its elections. It is a matter of national security.

“To all Americans, I ask you to pick up your phone tomorrow, call your representatives and the House and Senate, and demand that they pass the SAVE America Act without delay,” President Trump said.

Mark Warner got called out about his voter ID lies during an appearance on ABC’s “This Week.”

“You and every other Democrat oppose the SAVE America Act… requiring photo ID to register to vote, is this Democrats should get behind?” Jon Karl asked Mark Warner.

“In Virginia, we have voter ID and photo ID!” Mark Warner said.

This is a lie.

Virginia currently allows voters to present non-photo identification, such as copies of utilities and bank statements, as an accepted form of ID.

Virginia voters can also sign an ID statement affirming their identity.

Jon Karl fact-checked Mark Warner.

“That’s actually not the case. I’m a Virginia voter. You don’t need to show a photo ID in Virginia,” Jon Karl said, adding, “And if you don’t show one of those you can sign an affidavit…”
