Iran: ‘Refrigerators Are Empty. Pockets Are Empty.’
In Iran, an impoverished people can no longer endure their despotic regime. They have gone out onto the streets, in cities across Iran, to protest not just the country’s economic collapse, with a majority of the country now living below the poverty line, but also to demand an end to the regime itself. Ordinary Iranians, bazaaris, and university students are all out in force, calling for “Death to Khamenei,” the Supreme Leader who has brought the country to such a pass.
The senior clerics, the IRGC commanders, the high-ranking government officials, are all making out like gangbusters, along with their extended families, while the rest of the population sinks steadily into poverty and despair. Ayatollah Khamenei himself controls a business empire worth $95 billion.

NYC CONQUERED: NO PLANES. NO EXPLOSIONS. JUST SURRENDER
This week, New York State lit sixteen government landmarks green to celebrate the so-called Muslim American Heritage Month. Governor Kathy Hochul issued a formal proclamation. For the first time, the state officially sanctified January as a month of celebration.

Among the buildings glowing green was One World Trade Center — the Freedom Tower — built on the graves of nearly 3,000 Americans murdered on September 11, 2001.
Let that sink in.
The very site of the deadliest Islamic jihad attack in history was illuminated in Islamic green — not in mourning, not in remembrance, not in warning — but in celebration.
This was submission.
