At a Dearborn City Council meeting last week, Mayor Abdullah H. Hammoud told local resident Edward “Ted” Barham, a Christian, that he was “not welcome” in the city after Barham raised concerns about new street signs honoring Arab American News publisher Osama Siblani. FOX 2 Detroit reported that the signs honoring Siblani were placed at intersections on Warren Avenue by Wayne County, not the City of Dearborn. But the mayor escalated the debate, telling Barham, “Although you live here, you are not welcome here.” Barham introduced himself as “Ted Barham, Dearborn resident,” and objected to two intersections being renamed after...

District Court Judge Kristen Simmons dismissed charges of election fraud against 15 Michigan Republicans who agreed to be the state's electors in the 2020 presidential election. "Historically, there have been other instances where the issue of which electors really represent the voters' choice has been disputed," she observed. "This is not fraud or a coup d'etat. It is a precautionary step in case recounts or reassessments of vote tallies reverse the results initially reported after the vote counting has been concluded. Both Democrats and Republicans have used this step. Once the winner is determined only one set of electors actually...

HAMTRAMCK, Mich. (AP) — A Detroit-area city that banned LGBTQ+ flags from publicly owned flagpoles did not violate the Constitution, a judge said. U.S. District Judge David Lawson dismissed a lawsuit against Hamtramck, two years after the city council voted to allow only five flags, including the American flag, the Michigan flag and flags that “represent the international character” of residents. The city is known for welcoming immigrants. A pride flag was flown in June 2021 and 2022 before some members of the all-Muslim council said it clashed with the beliefs of some members of their faith. Businesses and residents...

A federal judge has upheld a ban on gay pride flags after a years-long battle by an all-Muslim city council to remove the rainbow because it did not reflect their community's values. The court found that Hamtramck, an enclave surrounded by Detroit with a significant Muslim immigrant population, did not violate the US Constitution when it banned the flag from public buildings in 2023. After a pride flag was flown in the city during Pride Month in 2021 and 2022, the city council said it clashed with the beliefs of some residents, so they voted to allow only five flags...

An employee at a Michigan Office Depot was fired after allegedly refusing to print posters for a vigil honoring Charlie Kirk, instead calling the material 'propaganda.' The 31-year-old conservative firebrand was shot in the neck during a debate with a student about mass shootings, with horrifying footage showing him recoil from the impact before he was later pronounced dead. On Friday afternoon, the Kalamazoo County Republican Party ordered posters of the slain father-of-two from an Office Depot in Portage, Michigan, ahead of a vigil honoring Kirk that night. But nearly three hours after the order was placed, a supervisor named...

“What does it mean,” the Manhattan Institute’s Tal Fortgang wrote in City Journal on Monday, “when a sitting member of Congress speaks at a conference attended by hundreds of terrorism sympathizers?” This was not simply a hypothetical question. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Ramallah) recently spoke at the People’s Conference for Palestine in Detroit, and her words were so hateful, so incendiary, and so firmly aligned with the cause of enemies of the United States, that they give Fortgang’s a particular urgency, and lead to another question: if a sitting member of Congress hates America, should she be serving in Congress at...

Charges have been dismissed against 15 Republicans who were hit with felony charges by Michigan’s far-left attorney general for objecting to the results of the 2020 presidential election. The case was one of several brought by state attorneys general in the lead-up t0 the 2024 presidential election.

Charges against the Nevada electors were dismissed by a judge last year, while Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ case has long been paralyzed. On Tuesday, District Court Judge Kristen D....

If you had any doubts about the true agenda of the “pro-Palestine” movement, just consider last weekend’s annual People’s Conference for Palestine in Detroit. It was a gathering of martyrdom fetishists, Hamas supporters and antisemites, all bathing in an atmosphere of hate, rage and despair as they condemned Israel but reserved their deepest scorn for the United States. The focus was a kind of patriotism and love of country — for Palestine. No American flags were in sight, though a prominent “Glory to Our Martyrs” banner kept everyone mindful of their ultimate duty to the cause. Speakers vied to outdo...

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) is calling for a federal investigation into radical organizer Aisha Nizar, after Nizar openly encouraged Palestinian activists to intervene in the U.S. F-35 fighter jet supply chain. The so-called “People’s Conference for Palestine,” held August 29 in Detroit, brought together thousands of anti-Israel agitators, leftist groups, and pro-Hamas sympathizers under one roof. Far from a “peace” summit, the event quickly devolved into calls for sabotage, economic warfare, and even direct intervention against the United States military supply chain. According to recently released reports, radical organizers are furious that shipments of U.S.-made F-35 components are being...

Much was foretold this last weekend by Mahmoud Khalil, the formerly arrested Columbia University Palestinian student leader, who spoke before the pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel “People’s Conference for Palestine” held in Detroit, Michigan. Khalil, the keynote speaker, told a room packed with thousands of pro-Palestinian militants that they should organize a “national liberation movement” in the United States. “We should build a national liberation movement,” Khalil advised the activist audience who openly strategized for “resistance.” “We should build a national liberation movement,” Khalil advised the activist audience who openly strategized for “resistance.”

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) closed out the radical “People’s Conference for Palestine” in Detroit Sunday by boasting of her congressional power and Palestinian resilience, telling cheering attendees, “Now we’re in Congress, and we’re in every corner of the United States. We aren’t going anywhere. We are just getting started,” and declaring that their grassroots activism is winning against the “decaying halls of the empire in Washington, DC.” The weekend-long conference, organized by a coalition of radical pro-Palestinian groups, drew scrutiny for featuring extremist voices alongside Tlaib, including convicted terrorists and anti-American activists who openly called for dismantling U.S. institutions.

Guest post by Robert Bowes Will Too Late Jay Powell allow an illegitimate Fed meeting September 16-17, 2025? Cook’s false occupancy statements on mortgage applications are confirmed by her numerous errors and omissions in her signed U.S. Office of Government Ethics financial filings. But wait, there’s more. Did Cook exploit regulatory lapses at a free-wheeling DC credit union where they ignored risks and gave her two low-interest rate mortgages? Cook likely could not have tricked the underwriting systems at major banks, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, but was approved for two first mortgages from Bank-Fund Staff Federal Credit Union (“BFSFCU”),...

You’ve got to hand it to her; no one in America has worked harder than Michigan’s Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson to earn the title of the nation’s dirtiest election official. Benson UOCAVA Online Voting On September 22, 2024, we warned of a shocking plan by Democrats to steal the upcoming general election.
