The Left’s cries of “genocide” against Israel ring hollow when many of its loudest critics ignore the far bloodier histories of their own ancestral homelands. On October 7, 2023, Hamas killers slaughtered 1,200 people, more than two-thirds of them civilians, inside Israel. For the ensuing three weeks, they refused Israel’s demands to turn over the 251 hostages and to surrender the architects of the massacre. No matter—within a day of the attacks, when Hamas gunmen were still fighting Israeli troops on Israeli soil, the American Left was already screaming “genocide!” They did not mean Hamas’s intended genocide of Jews, a...

AUSTIN, Texas — A 40-year-old man was arrested in Texas early Wednesday on suspicion of plotting to attack the state Capitol, authorities said, in an act reportedly motivated by anger at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC, a pro-Israel lobby group. The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) said in a statement that it received “credible information about an individual planning a violent attack” for Thursday in Austin. Officials did not provide details about the alleged plot, citing an ongoing investigation. The tip came in Tuesday evening, and SWAT officers made the arrest at about 3 a.m. Wednesday...

Hasan Piker says he'll make sure James Talarico follows his far-Left agenda if he becomes a Senator: "After James Talarico wins...we have to remind him that...we are the force that allowed him to win this seat of power, and if he wants to maintain it he’s got to play ball.” So every vile anti-American position that Piker takes can rightfully be hung around the neck of Talarico and the rest of the Democrat candidates that have sold their souls to satan’s minions in the Democratic Socialist of America party.

Earlier, “progressive” LA mayoral candidate Nithya Raman used the "genocide" slur with Hasan Piker.  Appearing on Sep 29, 2026 in a Jewish forum by the Jewish Federation, Raman was asked whether she would appear with someone who was anti-Christian or anti-Muslim, as she had appeared with the antisemitic Hasan Piker. She said yes, explaining that “we need to hear a wide variety of opinions.”  So she was asked about her use of the word “genocide.”  She answered, “I’m not an expert on this term, but I’ve seen experts calling it a genocide. I looked it up, and...

This is who Abdul El-Sayed is. He refused to disavow Hasan Piker, who had said that America deserved 9/11, he made excuses for the Muslim terrorist who tried to kill 100 Jewish preschoolers at a synagogue, and he continues attending events with outright supporters of terrorism. “I pray one day, Inshallah, Allah will bless us to raise an army and I’m serious about this. We were very close, recently. We had made intention to raise an army of 10,000 men in NY City. Muslim men to go fight…And the day is going to come, when that happens,” the ISNA speaker...

In his September 24, 2026, address to the UN General Assembly, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended Israel’s strikes on Iran and its conduct in Gaza, describing the years since October 7 as a seven-front war. Recalling the Six-Day War and his brother Yoni’s role in the Entebbe rescue, he repeated the refrain, “We have no other choice.” Delegates staged a walkout as the speech began, prompting Netanyahu to invite any remaining “moral cowards” to leave. He praised President Donald Trump, rejected accusations of genocide, and sharply criticized New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Qatar, and Turkey. He also voiced support for...

In a campaign speech, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz acknowledged that "the era of unconditional love that the US has shown to Europe since World War II are over. The generosity that every US president since Truman has shown toward Germany and our fellow European states has been ended by the cruelty of President Trump. Fortunately, the defensive shield from Russian aggression provided by US arms is no longer needed. The hundreds of billions that shield saved us permitted us to provide ample social welfare benefits that would otherwise not have been possible." Merz went on to mock Trump's "humiliation by...

America’s unrivaled prosperity and freedom make it hard for us to understand why everyone doesn’t want to live and think as we do. Even leftists in the United States who routinely assail our history and institutions share this mindset. Their true ideology might be said to be cognitive dissonance. While they spout Marxist dogma, their very viability hinges on keeping the blessings and fruits of our current system. The difference is their belief that they should be the ones to command and distribute them. The problem, of course, is that they may likely kill the golden egg-laying goose in the...

It’s easy to see why Abdul El-Sayed wants to separate himself from left-wing streamer Hasan Piker. In an interview with Axios, Piker said that he believes the Middle East would be more stable if Iran had a nuclear weapon. .@AlexThomp: "Do you think the Middle East would be more stable if Iran had a nuclear weapon?"Hasan Piker: "I believe yes."(the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism) pic.twitter.com/S8uaLJEBMC— Sarah Gallagher (@sgallz_) September 17, 2026Piker said that America conducts more terror than Al-Qaeda. "You once said that America is the top dog in terrorism," Axios' Alex Thompson said. "Do you think America...

President Trump just NUKED Radical Muslim Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed: TRUMP: "In Michigan, the Democrat nominee is Abdul El-Sayed, who brags about the fact that he wants to pack the Supreme Court with twenty-three far-left lunatic justices." "His sister—you gotta listen to this one—his sister celebrated the terrorist slaughter of babies on October 7th. She thought it was a great thing." "His sister thought it was a great day. His mother worked for an organization that gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to people who follow Osama bin Laden." "And he campaigns with a Marxist agitator who says that America...

New Yorkers are debating whether or not it is appropriate for Mayor Zohran Mamdani to attend the ceremonies commemorating the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on America on Sept. 11, 2001. But, like the one about his boycott of the city’s annual “Israel Day” parade, most of the arguments miss the point. The presence of a politician who has cheered on other Islamist terrorists in his career may be unwelcome to many of the families of the victims, and to other New Yorkers and Americans. But just as there was no way to force him to honor Israel by...

Political streamer Hasan Piker is facing renewed attention over comments he made about Lindsay Clancy, days after a Massachusetts judge declared a mistrial in the case involving the deaths of her three children, as reported by Breitbart.Piker discussed the case during a livestream after a Plymouth County Superior Court jury failed to reach a unanimous verdict following seven days of deliberations.Judge William Sullivan declared the mistrial on September 4 after jurors repeatedly indicated they remained deadlocked. During the livestream, Piker questioned why anyone would automatically side with prosecutors rather than accept the defense's argument that postpartum psychosis played a significant...

(Far-left, anti-Israel streamer Hasan Piker attends the press conference during day three of Web Summit Qatar 2026 at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Center in Doha, Qatar, on Feb. 3, 2026). Americans overwhelmingly reject hardline anti-Israel pundits Hasan Piker and Candace Owens and believe neither major political party should collaborate with them, according to a new poll by Harvard-Harris.

In the run-up to the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 jihad attacks, and on the day itself, the establishment media is going to inundate us with feature stories about “Islamophobia.” Here’s one: NPR on Tuesday ran an interview with Rozina Ali, who writes for the New York Times and has just published a new book of victimhood propaganda, Seasons of Fury: Four Families and the Rise of Islamophobia in America. Hawking the book and Ali’s appearance, NPR tells us: After the Sept. 11 attacks, assaults against Muslims in the U.S. surged. At the same time the U.S. government launched a...

New York City's socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, has spent much of his brief political career being treated by the national media as some kind of irresistible force, a fresh-faced wunderkind whose progressive appeal stretches far beyond the activist left and into mainstream America. He's the future, they tell us. [Insert needle scratch noise.]There's just one not-so-tiny problem with that narrative: Americans don't actually like him very much. A new Harvard CAPS/Harris poll lays it all out in black and white. As RedState's Nick Arama reported Wednesday, there was some good news in that poll Republicans heading into the midterm elections....

VIDEOChunk Yogurt aka Cenk Uygur was loudly defending his crazed commie nephew, Hasan Piker when suddenly Karma struck and he experienced an embarrassing chair malfunction as you can see. However, in order to preserve poor Chunk's dignity we have taken that lemon experience and turned it into lemonade with this highly entertaining rendition of Chunk Yogurt performing Chunk Chair Cha-Cha.

🔥 WOW! This footage is resurfacing of Charlie Kirk MIC DROPPING communist Hasan Piker to his face KIRK: "Why don't YOU give 95% of your money away and go live on a commune!" PIKER: "Do you really think that's how it works?!" KIRK: "Why not? Go live what you PREACH. I live what I preach. I am a free market capitalist. I employ people. I took a risk. I have my own startup business. Every single day, I practice what I preach." "HE wants OTHER people to contribute to what he considers to be a good idea. What he considers...

Hasan Piker, two weeks ago, delivered this message: "Democrats, listen to me, I know we don't always see eye to eye on a lot of stuff, but you have to literally, at some point – I know you don't want to do this – defend me. Not because you love what I have to say, not because I'm part of this coalition, even though I am, whether you like it or not … I'm not this dangerous, toxic radical force." Was that a warning or a threat? Some 10 days later, what did this non-"dangerous, toxic radical force" say? "Because...

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz on Wednesday accused the international community of promoting a “blood libel” against Israel over claims of famine in Gaza. Waltz cited a report in Free Press about a July 2026 survey that found acute child malnutrition, or wasting, at 0.5%, and said there was no widespread acute malnutrition at the population level. “Recent data debunks that false narrative,” Waltz said. The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, the U.N.-backed body that assesses famine risk, subsequently said famine conditions had been offset while severe food insecurity persisted. The newer findings do not by themselves...
