Two top Democratic congressmen have called out President Biden for omitting mention of rapes committed by Hamas terrorists from a recent White House fact sheet on international sexual violence. Jewish Reps. Adam Schiff of California and Dan Goldman of New York wrote in a letter Wednesday that they wanted “to express our deepest concern” about the fact that the unspeakable Hamas sexual violence had been left off the June 17 fact sheet on the “Biden-Harris Administration’s Actions to Address Conflict-Related Sexual Violence.” “Given the evidence of these horrific incidents, the brutal and vicious sexual violence committed by Hamas must not...

From the Weather Underground and Black Panthers to Antifa and Black Lives Matter “I’m concerned about the safety of so many people in this country, particularly people of color,” Waters told host Jonathan Capehart, suggesting that the political violence will come from racist MAGA supporters:Donald Trump has said that if he does not win, it is going to be fraud, and because it is going to be fraud, there will be blood in the streets. He threatens about a civil war, and he threatens there’s going to be violence. I would say all of this talk is motivational with many...

U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy issued a health advisory on Tuesday declaring gun violence a public health crisis as a wave of mass shootings throughout the U.S. escalates concerns over the fast-growing death and injury tolls attributable to guns. “Firearm violence is an urgent public health crisis that has led to loss of life, unimaginable pain, and profound grief for far too many Americans,” Murthy said in a statement. “We don’t have to continue down this path, and we don’t have to subject our children to the ongoing horror of firearm violence in America. All Americans deserve to live their...

Surging violence in Haiti from clashes with armed gangs since March has displaced nearly 580,000 people, according to a new report from the U.N. migration agency, a sobering figure that underscores the magnitude of the Caribbean nation’s crisis. Haiti has long faced unrest but at the end of February, gangs unleashed coordinated attacks with gunmen taking control of police stations, opening fire on the main international airport that remained closed for nearly three months and stormed Haiti’s two biggest prisons. A report released on Tuesday by the International Organization for Migration said the displacement of more than half a million...

I’m concerned about the safety of so many people in this country, particularly people of color. Donald Trump has said that if he does not win, it is going to be fraud, and because...

The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) upheld on Friday a federal ban on gun ownership for subjects of domestic violence restraining orders. The case centered on Zackey Rahimi, who had been barred from gun possession under a 1994 law prohibiting gun possession by those subject to the aforementioned restraining orders. NBC News suggested SCOTUS’s decision shows there are some gun controls that can survive the Bruen (2022) test. CNN quoted Chief Justice John Roberts indicating he and seven of his colleagues had “no trouble” coming together on this decision. Writing for the majority, Roberts said, “Our tradition of...

NBC News ^ | June. 21, 2024 | Lawrence Hurley
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Friday upheld a federal law that prohibits people subject to domestic violence restraining orders from having firearms, taking a step back from its recent endorsement of a broad right to possess a gun. The court ruled in favor of the Biden administration, which was defending the law — one of several federal gun restrictions currently facing legal challenges. The ruling indicates that some longstanding gun laws are likely to survive despite the court's 2022 decision that expanded gun rights by finding for the first time that there is a right to bear arms outside...

Left-wing radio host Dean Obeidallah said Friday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that the Republican Party is a “fascist movement” that will use violence to acquire power. Obeidallah said, “Apparently, yesterday was bring a terrorist to work day because that’s the reality. What so angers me is that January 6 was an act of domestic terrorism. That’s what Christopher Wray, the FBI director, testified before the House and Senate. Those Republicans know, Ted Cruz even leaked out one saying it was an act of terrorism. Then, he had to apologize for telling the truth. They welcomed a terrorist to the Capitol...

The recent protests at UNC are only one example of the unrest at several campuses across the U.S. (albeit mostly “elite” ones) in response to events in the Middle East. By April 2024, protests had been going on for months at UNC. An escalation occurred when, after students at Columbia University introduced the tactic of encampments on their campus—i.e., camping out in a public space—the tactic spread to other universities, including Carolina. While free expression, including protests, are extended broad license on campus (especially at public universities), they still must comply with university policies and government laws regarding time, place,...
