Manhattan Borough President Brad Hoylman-Sigal was roasted Sunday after he blamed the wrong protesters for hurling suspected explosive devices during dueling demonstrations outside Gracie Mansion on Saturday. Hoylman-Sigal issued a statement on X Saturday claiming, in part, “White Christian Nationalists led a roaming trail of Islamophobia and antisemitism today on Manhattan’s Upper East Side at Gracie Mansion where they targeted our mayor with an incendiary device.” The borough president took down the statement before it was publicly revealed Sunday that two pro-Muslim demonstrators, identified as Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi, were arrested in the incident. Federal authorities are working with the NYPD on the case.

Comments:

Manhattan Borough Pres publishes on 'X' that the bomb throwers were 'White Christian nationalists" When the bomb throwers, Ibraham Kayumi, and Emir Balat were arrested, the BP said his comments were evolving.

Well what did you think would happen? They will never retract their statements and Momdani wants to be a perpetual victim. The damage has been done. It is white nationalists who are at fault, no matter what. Aand will the press question the mayor's statement and ask him to rephrase? Not on your life. The media know what they are doing, and so does he and the BP.

We use the word 'Islamophobia' for any slight felt by muslims and 'antisemitism' if it's an insult against jews, and of course 'racism' for every slight against anyone else that's not white. What word do we have for all of the anti white, anti-christian hate we experience? Toxic masculinity is one insult, but what are the people that bad-mouth working white people called, other than liberal or democrat? Is there even a word?

Just heard a report on this on the news on the radio. Bombs were thrown when two opposing rallies clashed. AS IF either one of them would have done it and not just ONE side. This wasn't the Crips and Bloods clashing or the Sharks and Jets.... This was more Hells Angels meets the Salvation Army.

Most headlines obfuscate the real culprits. NPR says ''somebody'' threw a device during an anti-Muslim protest. ABC says there were ''dueling protests''. Who will they blame when whole blocks of NYC are blown up?

A member of the Iranian women’s soccer team refused to board a flight in Australia at the last minute Tuesday — making an at-the-wire plea to join a number of her teammates already granted asylum there. The players who have sought asylum say they are afraid they will be persecuted if they return home amid the US and Israeli attacks on Iran. The last-minute rogue player, who hasn’t been named, made her Hail Mary pitch as the remainder of the team boarded a flight at Sydney airport, sources told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

One of Jeffrey Epstein’s prison guards googled the sex predator minutes before he was found dead — and also made a mysterious $5,000 cash deposit 10 days before the predator’s jail-cell suicide, new Department of Justice documents reveal. Tova Noel was one of the two Metropolitan Correctional Center workers accused of falsifying records to say they checked on Epstein throughout the night before his Aug. 10, 2019, suicide.[snip] Earlier that shift, Noel, 37, shopped for furniture online and snoozed on the job instead of making the mandated checks on Epstein every 30 minutes, while Thomas perused motorcycles, prosecutors said.

Sen. Tim Sheehy sprang into action Wednesday, helping law enforcement officers subdue an “unhinged protester” who began “fighting” at a hearing at the US Capitol, the Montana Republican explained. Dramatic video of the incident shows the protester — later identified as Green Party Senate candidate Brian McGinnis — resisting multiple Capitol Police officers trying to remove him from a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing. Sheehy, a former Navy SEAL, is seen jumping into the scrum and trying to yank the 44-year-old McGinnis, who was wearing a US Marine Corps uniform, out of the room.

Everyone knew this was coming. Cuba has been struggling to keep the lights on for at least a year before their oil supply from Venezuela was suddenly cut off. That meant it was only a matter of weeks before the country ran out of fuel to keep the lights on. It's looking at the moment like today might be that day. A failure at Cuba’s main thermoelectric plant has caused a massive blackout affecting two-thirds of the island, the Cuban government confirmed Wednesday.

We should revisit this point because, during this historic period of the air campaign against Iran, it serves as a clear reminder that Democrats are not taking things seriously.

A Democrat running for office in California has reportedly called to defund the Pentagon, but her husband works for a company that built missiles the United States is believed to have used during the recent strikes on the Islamic regime in Iran. Fatima Iqbal-Zubair is a candidate for the state’s 65th Assembly District and her husband, Fazlul Zubair, is an engineer manager for Raytheon, the New York Post reported Monday. The United States and Israel launched a joint military operation targeting Iran on Saturday in part to ensure the regime will never have the capability to threaten the world with nuclear weapons, according to Breitbart News.

A Russian mogul who once called sex-trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell his “soulmate” was found dead in a luxury Moscow apartment Monday, according to reports — just weeks after his name surfaced in the Jeffrey Epstein files. Umar Dzhabrailov, a Chechen businessman and former senator, was discovered lying in a pool of blood with a gunshot wound to his head at about 3 a.m., Russian outlet Kommersant reported, citing police sources who called it a suspected suicide. Police discovered a Luger pistol lying by the 67-year-old’s body. But Dzhabrailov — who had tried to take his life in 2020 — didn’t leave a suicide note, the sources said.

Iran sent out a possible “operational trigger” to activate “sleeper assets” abroad after the war with America and Israel began, according to an encrypted message intercepted by the US. The coded signal was sent out following the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Feb. 28, with the message appearing to hold instructions for “covert operatives or sleeper assets,” ABC News reported, citing a federal alert sent to law enforcement agencies. The message could “be intended to activate or provide instructions to prepositioned sleeper assets operating outside the originating country,” the alert warned.

The FBI is expanding its criminal probe into suspected election irregularities, secretly obtaining a large tranche of voting records from Arizona’s largest county with a recent grand jury subpoena, multiple people familiar with the probe told Just the News. The sources, who spoke only on condition of anonymity because of the secrecy of the grand jury probe, said FBI agents are receiving gigabytes of electronic election data from Maricopa County, about a month after the bureau first disclosed an investigation into election irregularities by raiding a warehouse near Atlanta and seizing ballots from the 2020 election conducted in Fulton County, Georgia’s largest metropolis.

Back in February, the U.K. said dogs were an obstacle to its latest diversity scheme, namely turning the "too white" English countryside into a more "diverse" (read: Islamic) place to live. Not long after, a Muslim in New York said she was glad the city was "coming to Islam" when it came to dogs. Islam believes dogs are filthy and they're haram in many places, of course. But people in the West love their dogs, and the pet industry in the U.K. makes over £10 billion. In the U.S., that figure is $157 billion for 2025. Most of that is driven by dog ownership, so of course the politicians can't come

In yet another blatant betrayal of President Donald Trump and the America First agenda, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) has once again shown his true RINO colors by flatly refusing to make any changes to Senate rules that would allow the critical SAVE America Act to pass.

Political commentator Meghan McCain has built a career that began with a powerful advantage: her last name. The daughter of late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), stepped into the national political conversation for decades because of her father's legacy. Meghan McCain never hid that connection, and she's defended her father's record with fierce loyalty since he died in 2018. Despite my thoughts about Meghan, her loyalty deserves respect; a daughter defending her father is hardly controversial, while she protects what she believes was an honorable legacy tied to her father's military service and Senate career. McCain, however, found his political decisions drifted away from conservative principles
