The foreign-born judge behind a ruling forcing President Donald J. Trump to authorize around $2 billion in payments from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) to several non-governmental organizations (NGOs) is a Canadian-American jurist. United States District Court Judge Amir Ali, who serves on the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, was one of the last appointees named by former President Joe Biden, becoming the first Arab American Muslim on the federal bench. Ali assumed office less than two weeks after Donald J. Trump won the 2024 presidential election and has quickly emerged as one...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson 🚨BREAKING: Rep. Andy Ogles has officially introduced articles of IMPEACHMENT against Deep State District Judge Amir Ali. 11:34 AM · Feb 27, 2025

Conflict of interest.. Out of the three federal judges who staged a judicial coup and demanded that the Trump administration do whatever they say, two, Judge Loren AliKhan, a Pakistani Muslim, and Judge Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali, an Egyptian Muslim, are Muslims. All three are highly unqualified and extremist Biden nominees who do not belong on the bench. Judge Amir Ali’s order that Trump must disburse foreign aid is particularly egregious since Ali’s ancestral Egypt remains a major beneficiary of that aid. USAID has funneled $30 billion to Egypt since 1978. Today US aid to Egypt last year was $1.5...

Federal prosecutors have indicted three Pennsylvania Democrats who are accused of changing voter registration information for dozens of people and fraudulently casting mail-in ballots in their names in a failed bid to steal a mayoral election. The defendants, Md Nurul Hasan, Md Munsur Ali, and Md Rafikul Islam, conspired to help Hasan win the 2021 mayoral election as a write-in candidate in Millbourne Borough, a small municipality west of Philadelphia, according to the indictment filed on Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The men successfully changed voter registration information for about three dozen people in...

Chuck Schumer just confirmed another lifelong federal judge by a vote of 50-49 because Republican Senator Mike Braun did not show up to vote. This judge will now forever serve on the D.C. court. Senator Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona is voting with the Republicans to block the nomination, and Kamala Harris is out of town and can't cast the tie-breaking vote. Yet we still can't get Republicans to stand up and fight. ... Senator Mike Braun knows exactly what he’s doing with his absence. He’s voting as a Democrat. ... So why is RINO Braun in the Republican party since...

Welcome to Restoration. The great story of Western civilization, our core creeds, and the Judeo-Christian moral framework on which our societies were built are all under siege. At least three ideologies are pedaled as alternatives: 1. Communism: This resurgent communism is cultural. It is firmly embedded in our core institutions. It is international in outlook, and breath-taking in its subversive ambition. And it again has traction among the young. 2. Technocracy: The Technocratic Managerial Regime, as analyzed by N.S. Lyons, is ascendent in most every nation it seeks to dominate. 3. Islamism: A radical and aggressively metastasizing version of Islam...

What is at stake in our ability to see the threat plainly? Nothing less than the preservation of our way of life.If you wonder why I—a woman of color, an African, a former Muslim, a former asylum seeker, and an immigrant—look at the antics of today’s anti-Israel, anti-American protesters with such fear and trembling, allow me to explain.I was born in Somalia in 1969. The country had achieved independence nine years before. But less than a month before I was born—on October 21, 1969—a junior member of the brand-new Somali armed forces seized power with the help of the Soviet...

It was a sinister attack that erupted after a simple road rage row. An innocent victim who was caught up in the crossfire; left with his hand severed by an axe amid the horror. The violence exploded on the Newbold Estate in Rochdale in 2017, where organised crime gang 'Adam' had a firm hold - wreaking havoc on the streets and instilling fear in the many innocent civilians living there. The victim, 18-year-old tree surgeon Cameron Brooksbank, was among his other colleagues who were set upon by the mob and attacked as he tried to diffuse the escalating volatility. The...

A 20-strong gang set upon four tree surgeons in Rochdale, England, calling them “white bastards” and cutting off a teenage worker’s hand with an axe. 27-year-old Habibur Rahman gathered the mob after the workers had stopped him from abusing an elderly woman. Rahman, incensed he had been “disrespected” on his “territory”, tracked the four workers to the property they were working on in the rape gang blighted city, blocking them by parking his car across the driveway while the mob approached armed with a claw hammer, knives, machetes, a knuckle-duster — and the fateful axe. “I am not going to...

Atheism can't equip us for civilisational war... In 2002, I discovered a 1927 lecture by Bertrand Russell entitled “Why I am Not a Christian”. It did not cross my mind, as I read it, that one day, nearly a century after he delivered it to the South London branch of the National Secular Society, I would be compelled to write an essay with precisely the opposite title. The year before, I had publicly condemned the terrorist attacks of the 19 men who had hijacked passenger jets and crashed them into the twin towers in New York. They had done it...

An asylum official with the Department of Homeland Security has been put on leave after it was revealed that she once served as a spokeswoman for the Palestine Liberation Organization — and recently wrote “F–k Israel” in numerous posts supporting Hamas, according to reports. Nejwa Ali was hired at the USCIS in 2019 as an asylum officer and earlier this year was made an adjudication officer, according to her LinkedIn profile. The role includes vetting people before they enter the US. Ali has expressed her support for Palestinian causes for years — and recently posted inflammatory comments about Israel in...

All across the West, there is no shortage of people blaming the horrors in Israel on Israel itself — and openly supporting the perpetrators. The head of policy at the Community Security Trust, which monitors hate crimes committed against British Jews, has said: 'Anti-Semites are getting excited by the sight of dead Jews . . . Hamas murdering Israeli civilians has exhilarated them . . . We've had reports of people driving past synagogues shouting 'Kill the Jews'.' Anti-Semitic incidents in Britain are currently three times higher than they were this time last year, the charity adds.

A man is dead after police say he entered the lobby of a police station in Michigan and attempted to open fire. At around 3:30 p.m. on Sunday afternoon, an unidentified 33-year-old male entered the lobby of the Dearborn Police Department, just a few miles west of Detroit. While inside, police say the man took a look around before he pulled a concealed handgun from somewhere on his person and attempted to fire the weapon at the uniformed officer behind the front desk. Fortunately, the man's weapon — which was reportedly a stolen 9mm handgun — malfunctioned and did not...

On today's Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough repeatedly argued that if the Alito opinion is adopted, it can be used to undo a variety of other Supreme Court rulings. In particular, in addition to rulings striking down restrictions on contraception, and upholding gay marriage, Scarborough thrice cited the case of Loving v. Virginia, in which the Court struck down Virginia's law outlawing interracial marriage. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

WASHINGTON — Federal prosecutors on Wednesday charged two men they say were posing as federal agents, giving free apartments and other gifts to U.S. Secret Service agents, including one who worked on the first lady’s security detail. The two men – Arian Taherzadeh, 40, and Haider Ali, 36 – were taken into custody as more than a dozen FBI agents charged into a luxury apartment building in Southeast Washington on Wednesday evening.

Road to MoscowBill Clinton’s Early Activism from Fulbright to Moscow By Fedora SummaryDuring the 1992 campaign, Bill Clinton’s student protests and Moscow trip generated much controversy, but few answers. While Clinton’s government files from that era seemingly remain unavailable even today, there is at least more information available than in 1992. The public record reveals that Clinton’s social network and views on Vietnam were influenced by a pattern of contact between Communist agents and sympathizers and Clinton’s academic and political associates. This pattern is documented here through an analysis of Clinton’s antiwar activity up through the time he left Oxford...

We can guess that British Member of Parliament Sir David Amess, cruelly and painfully stabbed to death while meeting with constituents, was likely targeted for his pro-Israel and philo-Semitic views, now that the name of the suspect arrested at the scene has been released.Around 6 PM EDT Saturday, the UK Guardian first reported:Sources have confirmed to the Guardian that the suspect’s name is Ali Harbi Ali, 25.Other British media picked up the story and added details. The Sunday Times and Evening Standard both chose to emphasize the suspect’s family as victims: “Father’s shock after son held over Sir David Amess...

Labour’s Shadow Lord Chancellor and Justice Secretary David Lammy listed heavyweight boxing legend Joe Frazier alongside Judas Iscariot and the KKK in a bizarre Good Friday message. “Good Friday so thinking about Judas who sold out his brother for 30 pieces of silver.” “Sure many of us can think a Judas amidst us,” he continued. “Keep the faith: ‘There is no Jesus without Judas, no Martin Luther King without the Klan; no Ali without Joe Frazier; no freedom without tyranny'”. The decision to list the late Frazier, a heavyweight world champion who brought an Olympic gold medal back to the...

Archer Alexander’s fame came largely after his death. Depicted in bronze kneeling before President Abraham Lincoln, his story also received renewed attention recently amid recent calls for monuments connected to slavery and colonialism to be pulled down. In the wake of global anti-racism protests sparked by the killing of George Floyd in the U.S., such controversial monuments became the target of Black Lives Matter protesters across the world, including the UK and Belgium. In the U.S., statues of Confederate leaders and the explorer Christopher Columbus were toppled. In Washington, D.C., protesters made attempts to tear down the controversial Emancipation Memorial,...
