Radical Islamic activist Mahmoud Khalil and leftist Jewish organizations put on a disgusting spectacle of appropriating the holiest day of the Jewish year and its sacred memorial service on Monday to take shots at Israel, the Trump administration, and the Jewish people.On Yom Kippur, a solemn 25-hour day of fasting, repentance, and spiritual purity meant for Jews to seek divine forgiveness, a coalition of fringe, anti-Zionist groups turned a holy sanctuary into a partisan circus in Brooklyn, New York. Hundreds gathered at Grand Army Plaza for a so-called “Yizkor service,” co-sponsored by radical outfits like Jews for Racial & Economic Justice, Jewish Voice for Peace, and IfNotNow.Instead of honoring Jewish ancestors, the gathering handed the microphone to anti-Israel agitator Khalil, who weaponized the sacred tradition to hurl wild accusations of “genocide” against Israel and brand the U.S. government as complicit.The outrage online was immediate and fierce, with critics slamming the event as an absol

Israel has been hit with false genocide charges nonstop since virtually the day the Jewish state was reborn, and the latest barrage after the October 7 Hamas massacre of more than 1,200 Israelis is the ugliest chapter yet.In a detailed essay, Norman J.W. Goda, professor of Holocaust studies at the University of Florida, traced how the world’s oldest and most relentless smear against the Jewish state got started and why it keeps coming back stronger.Goda notes that accusing a country of genocide is supposed to be the ultimate stain. Plenty of countries have faced the charge over the decades, from the U.S. in Vietnam to China, Cambodia, and others.But Israel is different. Alone among nations, it has been labeled genocidal almost continuously since its founding in 1948. The charge has always been linked to claims of racism and colonialism that took off in the 1960s. After Hamas’s October 7 massacres, the accusations exploded with unusual speed and fury, complete with attempts to stretch and lower the legal d

Disgraced “alpha male” influencer Andrew Tate, 39, has been hit with a bombshell new indictment charging him human trafficking and money laundering as he’s accused of grooming and sexually exploiting a 15-year-old girl, Romanian prosecutors said Friday.The new charges from Romania’s organized crime agency claim Tate recruited one teenager and subjected her to years of physical aggression, emotional blackmail, and forced webcam work between 2012 and 2021. Tate is accused of forcing the young girl to make sexually explicit material and engage in video chats for the disgraced social media influencer, The New York Post reported.He allegedly had sex with another 15-year-old girl at two of his Romanian properties between December 2020 and the middle of 2021.His sidekick brother, 38-year-old Tristan Tate, has been accused of complicity by allegedly managing the victim’s video chat accounts, roughing her up, and helping his brother rake in over $1.25 million.

Texas Democrat James Talarico has wanted to blow up the American economy, but he couldn’t even untie himself from his mother’s apron strings.Resurfaced video from a 2020 Sierra Club virtual forum shows the radical Senate candidate going full-blown socialist, branding free-market capitalism an “oppressive system” right alongside white supremacy and climate change. Swooning over far-Left youth activists, Talarico declared, “Young activists have really drawn the link between climate change and white supremacy and capitalism in our country. And I think only ending the ways that all three of those oppressive systems work together are we going to be able to begin the process of dismantling them.”In a private Zoom meeting with Austin Sierra Club activists, James talarico says capitalism is an oppressive system he wants to dismantle:"I'm … thankful that young activists have really drawn the link between climate change and white supremacy and capitalism in our country.… pic.twitter.com/sPDDXg6l5q— Lo

Netflix is rolling out the red carpet for the latest entry in media navel-gazing: a documentary detailing the absolute “horror” of reporters being left on a plane with the window shades lowered.The streaming giant announced Tuesday that “Instadocs: The Decoy Plane” will premiere Friday, September 4. The documentary examines the July incident where the Secret Service pulled off a slick maneuver in Ankara, Turkey. Facing credible assassination threats from Iran against President Donald Trump, security officials quietly shuttled the commander-in-chief off Air Force One via a catering truck and onto a secure military transport plane.Left behind on the main 747 was the White House press pool, blissfully unaware that Trump wasn’t aboard, only to erupt in a collective panic upon realizing they’d played the role of unwitting decoys. According to Netflix, “a plane full of reporters and the public they answer to were left flying blind.”The documentary promises “firsthand accounts” from shell-shocked

New York’s self-proclaimed feminist governor, Kathy Hochul, set off a social media firestorm after strapping on a black hijab to address a crowd at an Islamic center last Friday.Video showed Hochul in a hijab while addressing Muslim religious and community leaders in New York as the nation prepares for the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks carried out by radical Muslims.The pandering didn’t go unnoticed. Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) blasted the Democratic governor, exposing the Left’s favorite cultural wedge issue.“Democrats: ‘Sexist Republicans are turning America into the Handmaid’s Tale!’ Also Democrats:” Gill posted on X, attaching the photo of Hochul decked out in her headscarf.Democrats: "Sexist Republicans are turning America into the Handmaid's Tale!"

Alarm bells are ringing across the British justice system over fears that white prisoners in the UK are being terrorized into converting to Islam by dominant, violent prison gangs.Fresh Ministry of Justice figures expose a startling demographic shift behind bars in England and Wales: one out of every five Muslim inmates is white, compared with 5.8% of Muslims in the general population, according to the Daily Mail. The disparity has triggered urgent calls from political leaders demanding an immediate inquiry into radicalization and coerced conversions reportedly taking place in prisons.Critics warned that newly arrived inmates face a brutal choice: submit to extremist gangs or suffer violence. While some prisoners adopt the faith as “convenience Muslims” to secure extra cell time or better halal meals, legal experts and veteran prison inspectors say that sheer survival is driving them. Inmates are forced to fall in line within hours of entering a wing to buy protection from dominant radical factions.The cr

Dolly Parton, the towering queen of country music whose sky-high blonde wigs, razor-sharp wit, and world-class talent conquered pop culture and warmed millions of hearts, has passed away. She was 80.The tragic news was confirmed via an official Instagram video by her nephew, Bryan Seaver, on behalf of the Parton family.Parton’s death comes after a public struggle with her health. Fans were hit with a scare in September 2025 when she abruptly canceled a slated six-night Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace. At the time, she cracked a classic Dolly joke to ease the blow, claiming it was just time for her “100,000-mile check-up” that didn’t involve her plastic surgeon. She asked for time to “get show ready,” reassuring the world that God hadn’t told her to quit the biz just yet.Shortly after, however, she bowed out of accepting her Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award in person at the Motion Picture Academy’s Governors Awards.Even while battling health issues, you couldn’t keep Parton down just th

Speaking at a hearing on Wednesday about the dangers of the Muslim Brotherhood network across America, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) denounced the five Senate Democrats who refused to attend the hearing.Cruz laid into Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action, and Federal Rights, who announced on Tuesday that they would refuse to participate in the hearing focused on Muslim Brotherhood networks within the United States.“You may notice that there are empty chairs on the Democrat side of the dais,” Cruz said. “The American people should ask themselves why not a single member of the minority decided that a hearing on terrorism was worth their time. It is an embarrassment and a disservice to the thousands of American victims of the Muslim Brotherhood. History has taught Americans the danger of dismissing determined jihadist movements because their ambitions seem too extreme to be real.”Cruz continued:The present members of this subcommittee will look at two question
