Spanish prime minister wants Israel banned
from sports events after chaos at cycling race
Posted By: Mercedes44, 9/16/2025 5:33:39 PM
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Monday called for Israel to be banned from sports events after pro-Palestinian activists disrupted the end of the Spanish Vuelta cycling race in chaotic scenes in Madrid. Israel’s foreign minister responded by calling Sánchez an “antisemite and a liar.” Tensions between the countries have escalated in recent weeks as Spain’s left-wing government expressed support for protesters who interrupted several stages of the Vuelta, including Sunday’s final stage in Madrid, because an Israeli team was taking part. Speaking to members of his Socialist Party, Sánchez said Israel, just like Russia, should not be allowed to compete in international sports because of its military campaign in Gaza.

Gushed Over Charlie Kirk Assassin's ‘Loving’ Messages 15 replies
There's bias in the media, and then there's next-level, full-throated love of the most extreme parts of the leftist movement, as exhibited by ABC News reporter Matt Gutman.
Gutman, as many are aware, went on an unhinged romanticization of text messages revealed by Charlie Kirk's assassin to his love interest, where he seemingly admitted to and attempted to justify his actions.
The reporter thoroughly embarrassed himself with the gushing sentiments. He felt the need to highlight the "duality" of a deranged killer and how he spoke "so lovingly" to his partner.
"It was very touching in a way that I think many of us didn’t expect," Gutman said.
We are talking about a very dystopian future if we allow central banks to issue central bank digital currencies. You know, even if the original designers and heads of central banks who are launching this are super well-meaning, you know, let's give them the benefit of the doubt, we just know what human nature is like and history is the best guide... I think the power would be abused, if not by the original generation of launchers, then by the next generation.... It will be a completely totalitarian system of such frightening proportions,
An Illinois TV anchor has resigned from a local ABC-affiliated station after she said she was suspended for airing a tearjerking “non-partisan tribute” to her mentor, Charlie Kirk, following his assassination.
Beni Rae Harmony announced she was leaving WICS-ABC20 Springfield on Monday after she allegedly faced retaliation from the station for airing the emotional 1-minute and 17-second tribute on Friday.
“Many in the mainstream media have been fired or punished for mocking his assassination,” Harmony wrote on X.
“I believe I am the first to be targeted for honoring him on air.”
Harmony told her followers that her resignation “is guided by values that are essential to who I am,

The FBI has reportedly widened its investigation into the assassination of Charlie Kirk to include radical leftist groups in Utah to determine whether they helped the suspect or had foreknowledge of his plan.
Several transgender social media accounts made self-incriminating comments before and after suspect Tyler Robinson murdered Kirk at a TPUSA event at Utah Valley University in Orem on September 10. The ammunition inside the rifle used to shoot Kirk was engraved with cryptic messages of transgender and antifascist ideology.
Robinson was arrested on Friday in connection with the murder after his father persuaded him to turn himself in. The 22-year-old is reportedly not cooperating with investigators.
The FBI’s no. 2 man said Monday that he suspects Charlie Kirk’s alleged killer Tyler Robinson could have been “aided and abetted’’ by an “extended network’’ — alluding to “multiple warning signs” he gave leading up to the assassination.
As The Post reported Sunday, law enforcement was already probing whether pro-trans online groups, sexualized animal-obsessed “furries” and others connected with Robinson had advance knowledge of his alleged murderous plans. The groups include communities on the online gaming platform Steam,
President Trump’s nominee to join the Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors, Stephen Miran, was confirmed by the full Senate on Monday — while an appeals court denied the commander in chief’s effort to remove embattled central banker Lisa Cook ahead of a key meeting on interest rates.
The Senate voted 48-47 to confirm Miran’s nomination — with Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) joining all Democrats in voting against Trump’s pick for the central bank. The president tapped Miran, head of the Council of Economic Advisers (CEA), to replace Adriana Kugler, a Biden appointee who abruptly stepped down last month.
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) filed a resolution Monday to censure Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and strip the “Squad” lawmaker of all her committee assignments over “vile comments mocking the assassination” of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
“Ilhan Omar has shown us exactly who she is: someone who defends political violence and refuses to condemn the loss of innocent lives when it doesn’t suit her agenda, even the cold-blooded assassination of Charlie Kirk,” Mace said in a statement.
“If you mock a political assassination and celebrate murder, you don’t get to keep your committee seat, you get consequences,” the congresswoman added.
Doubtlessly, a new age has just begun.
Most of Gen Z was nothing more than a twinkle in their parents’ eyes when 9/11 occurred. They never lived in a version of America without the Transportation Security Administration or looming terrorist threats. They were born into the aftermath, a world filled with warnings. Don’t play outside unsupervised, don’t take candy from strangers, don’t sit on a bus with your headphones on. Zoomers are well accustomed to a world where safety is the primary concern because threats are always dangling nearby. They were raised in the era of “cancel culture” and closed dialogue.
A federal appeals court on Thursday blocked a lower court order mandating taxpayer funding for abortion giant Planned Parenthood. A three-judge panel for U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, all appointed by former President Joe Biden (D), ultimately allowed a congressionally approved measure stripping Planned Parenthood of taxpayer dollars through Medicaid to go forward as litigation continues. The order stays two July preliminary injunctions issued by Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani, which blocked the defunding measure from going into effect.
The guardians of Arizona’s state pension fund have not suddenly turned into hoodie-wearing crypto bros shouting “HODL” from a Tempe rooftop. They have done something more interesting, more technical, and in its way, more subversive. They bought more shares of MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor’s publicly traded Trojan horse for Bitcoin.
For a bureaucracy that manages roughly $17 billion in assets, the Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS) is not known for boldness. It is designed to be boring. It sprinkles funds across the usual asset classes:
As soon as Charlie Kirk was assassinated, the pundit class starting wringing its collective hands about retribution.
But instead of acts of vengeance, instead of looting and burning down buildings, instead of terrorizing communities, Charlie Kirk’s supporters … held prayer vigils.
In fact, the only violence that we’ve seen so far has been instigated by leftists, who showed up at some of these vigils with a clear intention of stirring up hostility.
In Idaho, a scuffle broke out – at a candlelight service – after a man on a scooter with a rainbow backpack started yelling “F*** Charlie Kirk.” He continued to scream and shout obscenities as he left, apparently unharmed.

Liberal Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor on Tuesday warned that the poor quality of civics education means Americans may not know the difference between a president and a king. Sotomayor bemoaned the lack of education about such issues as the rule of law, saying not enough people have a basic understanding of the power of the president and the limits imposed upon that authority by the Constitution. "Do we understand what the difference is between a king and a president?" she said at a civics conference held at New York Law School in Manhattan. "And I think if people understood
Former President Barack Obama implied Tuesday that President Donald Trump was to blame for Charlie Kirk’s assassination, because of “extreme” personnel and policies that aroused violent opposition.
Obama was interviewed onstage by Steve Scully at the Jefferson Educational Society in Erie, Pennsylvania.
He mourned Kirk’s death, saying it was “horrific,” but made sure to recite an (inaccurate) laundry list of Kirk’s more controversial statements, including a false claim that Kirk claimed black women were stupid.
Obama then said that Trump wanted to use Kirk’s assassination as “a rationale
Disney’s ABC said it would take Jimmy Kimmel‘s popular late-night show off its schedule “indefinitely” after one of the biggest owners of TV stations in the U.S., Nexstar Media, said it would pre-empt airings of the program following remarks the host made about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Nexstar said Wednesday that its “owned and partner television stations affiliated with the ABC Television Network will preempt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the foreseeable future, beginning with tonight’s show.” The company said it “strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets.”
Former President Barack Obama addressed the assassination of conservative political activist Charlie Kirk on Tuesday, calling the killing a “tragedy” that poses a “threat to all of us” before scolding President Trump for contributing to a dangerous political climate.
Speaking with journalist Steve Scully at the Jefferson Educational Society in Pennsylvania, Obama cast Kirk’s assassination as part of an escalating trend of political violence.
“Regardless of where you are on the political spectrum, what happened to Charlie Kirk was horrific and a tragedy,”
While he was vice president, Joe Biden stepped onto taxpayer-funded Air Force 2, traveled to Ukraine, and conducted personal business with Ukraine’s then-President Petro Poroshenko. He was there “to protect the interests of Hunter Biden,” according to documents released Tuesday by Sen. Chuck Grassley, (snip)
The new documents strengthen the information in previously released records. Last Congress, Grassley released FBI 1023 records — statements from confidential sources — alleging that when Biden was vice president, executives for Ukrainian gas company Burisma put his son Hunter Biden on the company’s board of directors to “protect us through his dad, from all kinds of problems,” according to that “confidential human source.”
An immigration judge in Louisiana has ordered pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, a legal permanent resident of the U.S., deported to Syria or Algeria for failing to disclose certain information on his green card application, according to documents filed in federal court Wednesday by his lawyers.
Khalil’s lawyers suggested in a filing that they intend to appeal the deportation order, but expressed concern that the appeal process will likely be swift and unfavorable. The order from the immigration judge, Jamee Comans, came despite a separate order in Khalil’s federal case in New Jersey blocking his deportation while that court considers Khalil’s legal argument

As President Donald Trump tries to force Lisa Cook out of her job at the Federal Reserve, her lawyers have pointed to a similar event in history — one where the president lost at the Supreme Court. On October 7, 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt fired William E. Humphrey from his post at the Federal Trade Commission. The reason was purely political: The president wanted someone who could advance his priorities.. "I do not feel that your mind and my mind go along together," Roosevelt told Humphrey in a letter. His term at the FTC was supposed to last until 1938. When Humphrey refused to resign, Roosevelt fired him.
YORK COUNTY, Pa. —
Three officers are dead, and two others were seriously injured after a shooting occurred in York County on Wednesday afternoon.

WGAL said officials were allegedly serving a warrant when they were shot at by an individual.
During a press conference on Wednesday evening following the shooting, Colonel Christopher L. Paris said three officers were killed and two others were in critical but stable condition.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) have come out against a Republican stopgap spending bill as Congress edges towards a shutdown.
House Republican leaders on Tuesday released the text for a stopgap funding bill that would set aside tens of millions of dollars for security assistance for lawmakers and federal officials amid heightened concerns about political violence after the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
The stopgap funding bill, otherwise known as a continuing resolution (CR), would seek to avert a government shutdown on October 1 and keep the government open through November 21.
President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced he will designate antifa, a left-wing activist group, as a "major terrorist organization."
Trump described the group as "A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER," in a Truth Social announcement.
The president added he will be "strongly recommending" that those funding antifa be thoroughly investigated in accordance with the highest legal standards and practices.
The announcement comes just days after Trump said he would "100%" consider the designation.
The University of California, Los Angeles has placed its controversial race and equity director, Johnathan Perkins, on leave after he celebrated conservative commentator Charlie Kirk's assassination in a series of social media posts.
Perkins, a veteran diversity consultant who worked in the Office of the General Counsel at Harvard University before joining UCLA in 2019, took to left-wing X copycat Bluesky on Friday to disparage Kirk. In one post, he responded to a user who called Kirk the right's "Rush Limbaugh replacement" with the message, "Yup. Good riddance, both."
