CHAOS IN LOS ANGELES: Antifa-Linked Mob Storms Catholic Church, Chases Conservative Activist Into Starbucks, and Douses Him in Blue Paint While Screaming “Nazi!”

Left-wing extremists and Antifa militants stormed the Precious Blood Catholic Church in Los Angeles on Saturday, August 23, where right-wing activist and free speech advocate Eoin Richard was hosting a peaceful free speech, anti-Islam rally.

The confrontation unfolded after Connolly, known publicly as Eoin Richard, organized a “Take Back LA” free-speech rally criticizing Islam.

Connolly originally advertised the August 23 demonstration outside the Islamic Center of Southern California on Vermont Avenue.

A pre-event advisory circulated by opponents described the gathering as a “far-right” rally and accused its organizers of targeting the Muslim community.

As counter-protesters gathered outside the Islamic center, Connolly reportedly redirected supporters to the nearby Precious Blood Catholic Church in Koreatown.

But the mob followed him.

According to journalist Andy Ngo, left-wing extremists and Antifa activists stormed the church, disrupted the gathering, and chased Connolly from the property.

Footage from the confrontation shows counter-protesters surrounding Connolly and repeatedly branding him a “Nazi,” the far left’s favorite label for anyone it believes should be silenced, intimidated, or physically attacked.

Connolly eventually sought refuge inside a nearby Starbucks, but the mob followed him into the business and surrounded the table where he and another man were seated.

Video circulating on social media shows blue paint being dumped over Connolly and his companion as counter-protesters crowd around them.

Is Amazon Suppressing a Book That Criticizes Islam?

Yes, I wrote the book in question, but that’s beside the point. If they can do it to me, they can do it to anyone who doesn’t hold the views that the leftist establishment finds acceptable. With Amazon being almost the only source for books now, and by far the largest, that’s a dangerous development for any society that values the freedom of speech.

It’s an odd thing. My latest book, The Tragedy of Islam: it has an Amazon page, and that page seems to be in full working order. You can find it here.

If, however, you didn’t click on that link I just provided, but instead went to Amazon and tried to find the book yourself, if your experience is anything like mine just now, you will see that the book is impossible to find. Search for it every which way, and it does not come up. Is Amazon trying to suppress access to this book? It sure looks as if it is.

I asked several other people to replicate this experiment, and they had the same results: They could find the book by clicking on a pre-existing link, but no matter what they searched for at Amazon, including the book’s specific title, subtitle, and author, it doesn’t come up. If you have a minute, please try it yourself and let me know in the comments what results you get.

I found this out because I needed the link to the book’s sale page, and as I was already at Amazon, instead of going to my website and clicking on the link there, I typed the book’s title into the search bar. What came up for “The Tragedy of Islam” was Imam Mohammad Tawhidi’s book from several years ago of the same name and a host of other books with similar names, but my book The Tragedy of Islam was nowhere to be seen. In fact, my book did not appear on the entire page of results for a search of the exact title of the book.

This is not normal. I typed in the names of a few of my other recent books, and they came right up in the searches, either as the first or second result.

So I started to search for The Tragedy of Islam with more information: by the full title, The Tragedy of Islam: Failure and Excuses, as well as “The Tragedy of Islam Spencer,” “The Tragedy of Islam Robert Spencer,” “The Tragedy of Islam by Robert Spencer,” and even “The Tragedy of Islam: Failure and Excuses by Robert Spencer, Bombardier Books.” Every search turned up another book I had written, or else Tawhidi’s book. None of the searches, not one, turned up the actual book The Tragedy of Islam: Failure and Excuses anywhere on the first page of search results.

Yet the book is offered at Amazon. Apparently, however, you can only get to it by clicking on a link to it you may find somewhere, not by searching at Amazon. This is a new form of censorship I haven’t encountered before. Amazon can say that they are offering the book for sale and that all is well. They’re just hiding it.

In the past, Amazon has dropped Mohammed’s Koran by Peter McLoughlin and Tommy Robinson, as well as McLoughlin’s Easy Meat about the Muslim rape gang scandals in the UK, and so it’s not at all beyond the realm of possibility that they’re suppressing The Tragedy of Islam, which argues that Islam is a failure, bad for both individuals and societies. They got a lot of heat, however, for dropping the earlier books, and so this time they can say there is no problem at all: The book is in stock and listed, and they’re taking orders for it. Hiding it? Ah, come on, Spencer, you’re just being paranoid!

Chinese Christian Detained After Listening to the Bible in His Car

A Christian living in northwestern China was reportedly arrested after listening to the Bible with a USB device in his car.

The unnamed believer — referred to as Brother AK in an Aug. 13 report from Premier Christian News —  was stopped at a checkpoint while driving with his family through a Muslim-majority part of China to visit other Christians.

He reportedly told officials that “because I believe in Jesus, I was listening to the Bible through the USB.”

Brother AK was detained for questions, and his wife and children — including their baby — were separated from him.

Several days passed without news of his whereabouts as the family stayed with nearby Christians.

Then the host family received a call from authorities inquiring into their relationship with Brother AK’s family.

Montreal minor allegedly used AI to plan school attack targeting Muslims, Haitians and LGBTQ+ community

A Montreal minor arrested in a national security investigation allegedly used artificial intelligence while planning a potential attack on a school and posted threats targeting Muslims, Haitians and members of the LGBTQ+ community, according to new details provided by the RCMP to Rebel News.

The RCMP’s Integrated National Security Enforcement Team arrested the youth Friday morning after investigators said they had reasonable grounds to believe the suspect might commit a violent extremism offence.

The investigation began several weeks ago after the FBI provided intelligence to Canadian authorities.

In response to an inquiry from Rebel News reporter Alexa Lavoie, the RCMP revealed additional details not included in its initial public statement.

“According to the alleged facts, the individual was planning an attack at a school located in Montreal,” the RCMP told Lavoie.

Police said the suspect “allegedly used artificial intelligence as part of the potential planning of an attack in the Montreal area.”

The RCMP also clarified who was allegedly targeted by threatening messages posted online.

“He also allegedly posted threatening statements on Telegram targeting various groups, including Muslim, Haitian and LGBTQ+ communities,” police said.

Investigators also executed a search warrant at the youth’s residence, seizing electronic devices and any other evidence considered relevant to the investigation.

The police operation was intended to disrupt the suspect’s alleged activities and require him to enter into a peace bond under Section 810.011 of the Criminal Code.

That provision allows authorities to seek a recognizance where there are reasonable grounds to fear a person may commit certain terrorism or criminal organization offences, without waiting for the feared offence to occur.

Despite the arrest, the investigation remains ongoing and charges could be laid at a later date.

“The investigation is ongoing, and all of the evidence will be analyzed,” the RCMP told Rebel News.

The youth was scheduled to appear Friday in Youth Court at the Montreal courthouse.

The RCMP characterized the investigation as involving ideologically motivated violent extremism and said combating such threats remains a national priority.

Federal Housing Bill Pulte Responds to Reports of Sharia Compliant Home Mortgages

Federal housing regulator Bill Pulte on Thursday responded to reports of Sharia-compliant mortgage loans purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Pulte says Fannie and Freddie don’t give out sharia-compliant-loans.

Guidance Residential, a private Islamic home-financing company, publicly states that it brings Freddie Mac and, according to another passage on its website, Fannie Mae, into its transactions as investors.

The company describes its product as “Islamic co-ownership financing.” Instead of issuing a conventional interest-bearing mortgage, Guidance says it purchases a home alongside the buyer. The buyer then gradually acquires the company’s ownership share while paying for the use of the remaining share.

Guidance says the arrangement was constructed to satisfy Sharia principles prohibiting riba, or interest. It also claims that its Sharia board and 18 law firms developed a contract under which Freddie Mac can participate without purchasing conventional debt.

Radical Far-Left Afghani Muslim Wins California US House Special Election to Replace Eric Swalwell

Islam is on the march.

State Senator Aisha Wahab, a radical, far-left Afghan Muslim, won California’s US House 14 in a special election to replace Eric Swalwell.

Aisha Wahab defeated ‘moderate’ Democrat Melissa Hernandez after the two advanced in the June 16 primary.

The special election moved to a race between Wahab and Hernandez after neither of the women received a majority of the vote.

Wahab previously accused Israel of genocide and attacked pro-Israel AIPAC.

AIPAC reportedly dumped millions of dollars into Melissa Hernandez’s campaign.

With more than 95% of the vote in, Wahab won 53% to Hernandez’s 47%, Decision Desk, NBC News and AP projected.

Wahab will serve out the remainder of Eric Swalwell’s term.

OUTRAGE: Far-Left NJ Gov. Mikie Sherrill Signs Draconian Law That Will Effectively Block People from Praying Outside Abortion Centers

The radical Left’s relentless war on religious freedom and the unborn has reached a terrifying new level in New Jersey.

Far-left Governor Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) signed sweeping legislation Thursday that creates harsh new criminal and civil penalties for alleged “interference” with abortion and transgender medical procedures.

Pro-life leaders warn the measure could be weaponized to frighten Christians and sidewalk counselors away from peacefully praying outside abortion facilities.

Sherrill signed S2260/A2218, which creates a new criminal offense called “interference with reproductive health care services.”

The Democrat governor claimed the legislation was necessary to protect abortionists and their patients.

“We have seen attacks from the Trump Administration and other states on access to reproductive and gender affirming healthcare, and attempts to impose restrictions across state borders. Here in New Jersey, we are standing firm in defense of reproductive freedoms – including the right to choose and the right to receive gender-affirming care,” Sherrill said in an official statement.

“No one should fear intimidation or violence for seeking healthcare, and no healthcare professional should fear punishment from another state for providing care that is legal in New Jersey. With this legislation, we are making clear that New Jersey will protect patients, providers, and the fundamental freedom to make personal healthcare decisions.”

8 Examples That Demonstrate That The Islamization Of America Is Steadily Progressing

In Islam, there is no separation between mosque and state. The goal is to use the state to make everyone submit to Islam. If you want to see what this looks like, just check out almost any country in the Middle East that has a Muslim majority. They don’t believe in freedom of speech or freedom of religion. Do you want to know how many churches there are in Saudi Arabia? The answer is zero, because churches are banned in Saudi Arabia. Now this same ideology is spreading in America, and that should deeply alarm all of us.

Today, Islam is the fastest growing religion in America.

It used to be witchcraft, but now Islam has taken the top spot.

There are now more than 2,700 mosques in the United States.

In 1970, there were about 100.

But it isn’t just mosques that are going up everywhere.

Enormous Islamic “mini-cities” are being constructed in states such as California and Texas.

And rapidly growing Islamic populations are taking over entire sections of the states of Minnesota and Michigan.

What we have been witnessing all over Europe is now happening here.

The following are 8 examples that demonstrate that the Islamization of America is steadily progressing…

#1 Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed has a really good chance of winning in November, and he has publicly stated that he has a sacred “obligation” to obey Islamic law in every area of his life until he dies…

Muslim Democrat Michigan Senatorial candidate Abdul El-Sayed has previously declared his sacred “obligation” to follow Islamic law in every aspect of his life until he dies and stands before Allah. He has claimed he does not want to subvert the Constitution and mandate Islamic law but that is part of his religion.

Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed is having his words, vows, and religion come back to haunt him. According to The Washington Free Beacon, years ago he declared his sacred “obligation” to follow Islamic law in every aspect of his life until he dies and stands before Allah. This comes from remarks he made to the New York Times back in 2009, when he was younger and buying his first home.

#2 In the supposedly “deep red” state of Mississippi, a hijab-wearing Muslim woman has been sworn in as a municipal judge…

Assma Ali has made history. The daughter of Yemeni immigrants to the United States, Ali is now municipal judge for the City of Benoit, a small town in southwest Bolivar County in the Mississippi Delta.

Ali was sworn in as municipal judge on Aug. 5. She has spent nearly a decade serving as an attorney in Mississippi after graduating with her law degree from Mississippi Christian University (formerly Mississippi College) in 2017 and interned in both Rankin and Madison counties while attending law school.

#3 I know that this is hard to believe, but a bill in the state of Massachusetts would “identify and recommend qualified American Muslims for appointive positions at all levels of government”. Needless to say, this is very unconstitutional…

OUTRAGEOUS: Fourth Circuit BLOCKS Trump Admin from Arresting Criminal Illegal Aliens Hiding in Churches — Claims Policy “Burdens” Religious Exercise by Scaring Off Illegal Aliens

The radical left just handed another massive victory to the open-borders mob!

In a shocking decision, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals just upheld a ridiculous injunction that literally stops our brave ICE and CBP agents from arresting illegal aliens who are hiding out in “houses of worship.”

Senior Circuit Judge Barbara Milano Keenan, an Obama appointee, wrote the opinion. She was joined by fellow Obama appointee Pamela Harris and Bush appointee G. Steven Agee.

For decades, federal immigration agencies generally restricted enforcement actions at or near houses of worship and other so-called sensitive locations.

The Biden administration’s 2021 policy required prior approval for most operations in protected areas, while preserving exceptions for emergencies, national-security threats, hot pursuit, and other urgent circumstances.

On January 20, 2025, the Trump administration rescinded that framework and told officers to use discretion and a ‘healthy dose of common sense.’ A later ICE directive put case-by-case decisions in the hands of senior field officials.

DHS made its position unmistakable in the public announcement: ‘Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest.’ The administration said it would no longer tie the hands of ICE and Border Patrol agents.
