Michael Bloomberg on Thursday defended his covert surveillance of New York City Muslims as mayor in the wake of 9/11 as he faces mounting criticism for the policy. Under Bloomberg’s backing, the NYPD spent at least six years cataloging information on Muslim communities, surveilling Muslim-owned businesses, mosques and other schools and organizations linked to the faith — which advocates have described as racist and baseless religious profiling. But Bloomberg said it was what authorities were “supposed to do” following the terror attacks during an appearance on PBS Newshour.

lhan Omar told friends years ago that the man who went on to become her second husband was, in fact, her brother, DailyMail.com can confirm. She married him in a Christian ceremony outside of the Minneapolis Somali community so as to keep the marriage secret.

Francis Waves Nazi Flag To Justify Illegal Immigration Pushing the fear button twice, Francis said during his Sunday visit in Bari, Italy, that "it frightens me when I hear speeches of some populist political leaders as they seem like the kind of speeches that sowed fear and then hatred in the 1930s.”He did not give any examples but went on pressing the fear button a third time, "Fear is leading to a sense that we need to defend ourselves against what is depicted in demagogic terms as an invasion.”Francis simplistically calls the clash of civilisations “rhetoric” which allegedly serve to...

Rep. Ilhan Omar, whose family secrets are more closely guarded than the president's nuclear codes, will apparently go to extraordinary lengths to keep the truth about her marriages from the national press and her constituents. The Daily Mail reports that someone has finally come forward to confirm what others -- including PJ Media's own David Steinberg -- have been reporting for years: that Omar married her brother in order to pull a scam on immigration authorities. It's complicated, but the bottom line is that someone who knows is talking on the record. Abdihakim Osman is the first person to go...

Ilhan Omar has not been very forthcoming about her marriages or her love life. This is understandable for any politician. But for Omar, questions continue to swirl around not only her ex-husband, Ahmed Hirsi, but also her lover, Tim Mynett. This is especially relevant after Omar paid Mynett's consulting company half a million dollars in 2019. According to the Daily Mail, Mynett had been married to a 55-year-old woman before divorcing her in August 2019. In divorce papers filed by Dr. Beth Mynett, she claimed the 38-year-old Mynett informed her in April of his affair and moved out the next...

But hardly...

Raymond Ibrahim, a longtime and regular contributor to PJ Media, will be speaking about his book, Sword and Scimitar: Fourteen Centuries of War between Islam and the West, next week at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania. This is significant: the War College first invited Mr. Ibrahim to speak last year; however, one week before his scheduled appearance in June 2019, a number of politically active Islamists—including CAIR, Linda Sarsour, etc.—protested wildly, including by presenting Ibrahim as a “white supremacist” who if allowed to speak would incite an “already racist and nationalist” American army to start randomly...

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) won the endorsement of a top Muslim political group Thursday. Emgage PAC, which calls itself the biggest Muslim political action committee in the country, says it is backing Sanders because of his “inclusive” presidential campaign, and it hopes that its endorsement spurs Muslims to the polls. “More than any other presidential candidate, Senator Sanders has built a historically inclusive and forward-thinking movement: one that represents America as a set of ideas grounded in the belief that all humans are equal and worthy of a dignified life,” Wa'el Alzayat, Emgage PAC’s CEO, said in...

Yes, the same West Midlands Police that arrested a man for ripping up pages of the Qur’an at a soccer match. The same West Midlands Police who issued groveling apologies for installing surveillance cameras in Muslim areas, and removed them (maybe if they had still been in place, these guys would have been caught by now). “Appeal after man assaulted and robbed in Birmingham,” West Midlands Police, February 11, 2020:...

What Muslims do here what they would never dare to do in their own countries. Maybe there is something to that reprisal. Muslim state lawmaker Movita Johnson-Harrell, a Democrat from Philadelphia, was charged with stealing more than $500,000 from her own non-profit to pay for vacations, furs, designer clothes, bills and her run for the state legislature. The crooked Democrat didn’t even serve one whole year in office and she is already resigning in disgrace — she is also facing jail time. The Philadelphia Inquirer reported: State Attorney General Josh Shapiro said Johnson-Harrell engaged in “brazen corruption” and systematically tried...
