Third Worldism motivated Mamdani's threat
against Netanyahu

Zohran Mamdani spent 18 months promising New Yorkers that he would arrest a foreign head of government. On Tuesday night, he admitted that he cannot. But it is hard to believe Mamdani did not know all along the promise was legally untenable. He made it anyway because its real purpose was not enforcement but delegitimization — to put Israel and the U.S.-led international order on the docket. His administration reviewed every avenue available under applicable law and found no independent authority to enforce the International Criminal Court’s warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The federal government continues to lose an estimated $233 billion to $521 billion each year to fraud, while most agencies overseeing the nation's largest federally funded programs have yet to implement one of the Government Accountability Office's top recommendations for preventing those losses, according to a new GAO report.
The report, Managing Risks in Federally Funded, State-Administered Programs, reviewed the 20 largest federally funded, state-administered programs, which accounted for approximately $1.1 trillion in federal obligations in fiscal year 2025.
The GAO found in the report released Thursday that most agencies have not completed documented fraud risk assessments.
Former Maine state lawmaker and logger Troy Jackson won the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate on Saturday, setting up a November showdown with longtime Republican Sen. Susan Collins in a race that could play a key role in determining control of the Senate.
Jackson was selected after Democrat Graham Platner, who won the party’s June primary, withdrew from the race earlier this month following a sexual assault allegation that he has denied. Maine Democrats gathered Saturday to choose a new nominee to take on Collins in the general election.
Amid celebrations of our nation’s 250th birthday, Gallup serves up a sobering portrait of general dissatisfaction with our nation’s core institutions.
“Confidence in U.S. institutions Remains Near All-Time Low,” reports Gallup.
Of 14 core institutions—banks, big business, labor, the presidency, Congress, schools, health care, etc.—only 27% say they have “a great deal/quite a lot of confidence,” one point above the all-time low for this average.
In 1979, the percentage expressing “a great deal/quite a lot of confidence” in these 14 core institutions stood at 48%.
One explanation is the double-edged sword of the growth of government. More government means more inefficiency.
City Jewish leaders Friday demanded Mayor Zohran Mamdani “stop fanning the flames of hatred and division” after a nut stabbed a religious man in a suspected antisemitic hate crime on the Upper West Side — but Hizzoner offered nothing more than a canned tepid response.
Raul Morales, 51, allegedly yelled “Allahu Akbar!” as he attacked the two victims — Moshe Yezhak Grunhaus, a 50-year-old Jewish man, and Chok Sung, a 57-year-old Asian man — in vicious separate attacks blocks from Central Park and minutes apart Thursday afternoon, police said.
“We’re horrified and heartbroken by yesterday’s attacks. But to be clear, we’re no longer surprised,”
Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Economic Development Corporation admitted this week that his city-owned grocery stores “might not have all the items” you’d find in a typical supermarket.
The five stores — which are expected to cost taxpayers upwards of $70 million — will likely not include hot food counters or butchers, EDC officials revealed during a board meeting Thursday.
“It may not have all the items, but it’s going to be like a typical grocery store,” insisted Jeanny Pak, interim CEO of the EDC, the powerful city-run nonprofit tasked with boosting economic growth and development. Pak also echoed Mamdani’s assertion that only certain items in the stores would be discounted.
Another stunning connection has emerged between Rep. Ilhan Omar’s family and the sprawling Feeding Our Future fraud scandal that robbed American taxpayers of hundreds of millions of dollars intended to feed needy children.
Omar’s sister, Sahra Noor, registered her consulting company at a Minnesota residence connected through business records to several major figures in the Feeding Our Future operation, according to an investigation by The Daily Wire.
Noor founded Grit Partners Consulting, a health and leadership consultancy focused largely on projects in Africa.
Twenty-five states, with the help of a Department of Homeland Security database, have identified hundreds of thousands of dead people and noncitizens registered to vote, and they haven’t finished counting yet.
So far, just 10 states—including key battlegrounds Georgia and North Carolina—have fully processed the voter data through the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements, or SAVE, database.
SAVE is primarily used by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to verify eligibility for government benefits. The Trump administration made it available to states to cross-reference voter registration data.
California’s Medi-Cal crisis has left taxpayers paying for fraud, waste, and abuse.
The Pacific Research Institute released a study this week breaking down how taxpayers are paying for “a program that has grown beyond the state’s ability to effectively manage it.”
The findings come as the Trump administration announced on July 21 that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is pausing over $860 million in funding to California after federal officials discovered in-home supportive services claims that significantly exceeded national trends.
Sally Pipes, the institute’s president, told the Daily Signal that rooting out fraud should be lawmakers’ top priority.

The oil-producing nations of the Persian Gulf are stepping up their efforts to divert shipping away from the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran has been launching terror strikes on civilian vessels.
The Associated Press (AP) noted on Thursday that “at least seven major pipeline projects are under construction, in the planning stage, or being discussed as possibilities.” Work on all of these projects accelerated after Iran delivered a “wake-up call for Gulf oil producers” by shuttering the Strait of Hormuz twice so far this year.
The goal is to build and expand pipeline networks that would allow countries like Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Iraq to bypass the traditional—

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is facing two potential bumps on the road to full-time confirmation. And their names are John Cornyn and Thom Tillis.
Over the past several days, reporting broke indicating the two Republican senators — who are both members of the Senate Judiciary Committee — have trepidation about advancing Blanche’s nomination to the Senate floor. While slated to consider his nomination on Thursday, the committee postponed a vote on Blanche’s AG bid by a week, as “per standard committee practice,” according to a representative for Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa.
I’d like to speak today about revolutionaries and counterrevolutionaries. Whether we realize it or not, we’ve been in a progressive revolutionary cycle for about 50 years.
And by that I mean there has been the effort of most of the Democratic Party, and now the radical elements to accelerate that efforts as emblemized by the democratic socialists to take control of government, expand it, redistribute income so that many people in blue states especially are paying over 10% of their income, in addition to 38% of their federal tax or two or three percent in Obamacare tax and other add-ons.

Actor Alan Ritchson, star of the Amazon Prime show Reacher, accused President Donald Trump of concealing the Epstein Files while saying that he’s “all up into 13 year olds.”
Ritchson expressed his thoughts during an interview with podcaster Josh Horwitz.
“People, I think, are a little afraid of me because they’re like he’s a loose canon, and I am not. I’m just saying the s*** that everybody should say if they give a s*** about humanity everybody else should feel like I feel about the way things are and the abuses that are happening everywhere,” he said.
It was then that Ritchson expressed outrage over the “the f****** Epstein files.”
Texas Senate candidate James Talarico is now endorsing reparations for slavery to black people as the Democrat continues to be haunted by allegations of racism first hurled against him during the final weeks of his primary campaign against Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D., Texas).
Claiming Texas still suffers from the "reverberations of slavery," Talarico threw his support behind reparations for black people during a town hall event, saying he would enact tuition relief, homeownership, and baby bonds for black people to help build generational wealth.
Sen. Jon Ossoff (D., Ga.) has spent thousands of dollars in campaign funds on "makeup services" in 2026, and his artist of choice has a long list of Hollywood credits, including The Notebook and The Hunger Games, a Washington Free Beacon review found. (snip) The Georgia senator who is running for reelection against Republican Rep. Mike Collins (Ga.), has reported spending more on makeup than any other candidate this year, beating out the likes of far-left Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) and Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.).
OK, so here's the deal:
With the news cycle full of stories about the war in Iran, Democratic Socialist (Marxist) mayors' latest destructive nonsense, election fraud, Medicaid fraud, and other such fun stuff, I decided to take a short trip off the beaten path and write about an intriguing case involving face tattoos, inalienable rights, and the U.S. Constitution. Sound like a fun diversion? It was. Read on.
As many, if not most, of us are aware, free speech cases are often messy and usually replete with uncomfortable facts. This is one of those cases.

Three more subcontractors that worked on the Obama Presidential Center have filed legal claims saying they are owed nearly $900,000, adding to a growing list of payment disputes surrounding the project.
The companies each filed mechanics liens against the Obama Presidential Center property, a routine legal tool used on construction projects to recover unpaid construction costs. The subcontractors claim they are owed money for structural steel, excavation and concrete, and gymnasium flooring work performed on Home Court, the Center's 60,000-square-foot basketball and events facility.
New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill spurned the Department of Justice’s request for information on the nearly 6,600 noncitizens who were improperly added to the state’s voter rolls, raising the ire of Trump administration officials who are making election security a priority heading in the November midterms.
The move follows Sherrill’s announcement on Tuesday that thousands of noncitizens had been added to New Jersey voter rolls, with 400 individuals casting ballots. Later that day, the DOJ requested the names, addresses, nationalities, and registration locations of the 6,600 non-citizens who were marked as voters, even though they identified themselves as noncitizens. Noncitizens convicted of voting in U.S.
Washington — President Trump on Friday ordered federal officials to install signs outside the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History that correct what he says is "inaccurate" information presented by the institution about American history.
Mr. Trump's directive cited a 162-page White House report released on July 4 that accused the museum of adopting "an ideological framework that no longer treats the American story as a shared national inheritance to be taught or celebrated, but as a political instrument to divide, dispirit, and discourage our citizens."
The report, titled "Saving America's Story," demonstrates that Smithsonian leadership views "American history as a 'prime tool' to advance ideas of social justice

Sunday Mass, citing low attendance, priest shortage 13 replies
SevenCatholic churches in northwest Minnesota will stop holding Sunday Mass.
The diocese has been seeing declining attendance at the services, as well as a shortage of priests. Last fall, Bishop Andrew Cozzens began meeting with parishes to come up with a long-term plan for the diocese.
(snip)
This will bring the total number of parishes down from 65 to 58. Cozzens said that half of the diocese's 32 priests will be eligible to retire over the next decade.
The socialists are feeling their oats right now.
They think they are on the rise in the face of a weak Democratic Party that seems largely okay with being eaten alive, and already has been largely taken over by radicals.
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani — the guy with the perpetual smirk — is one piece of evidence of this trend. He apparently thought he could dictate foreign policy and get Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrested. Then when he found out he doesn't have that kind of power, he had to resort to encouraging leftists to protest.
That has now ticked off the local police,
