    ransomnote: I used translate.google.com to obtain the English version of the text as it has proven in the past to be more reliable than the embedded translator at the link. MOSCOW, July 22. /TASS/. Residents of the city of Rivne have joined the protests against the scandalous law that effectively eliminates the independence of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAP). This was reported by the publication "Obshchestvennoye".Earlier, residents of Dnipro (formerly Dnipropetrovsk), Kyiv, Lviv, Odessa, Poltava and Ternopil took part in the rallies. In the capital, the protesters also demanded the resignation of the...

    Most people use their allotted sick time for an unexpected illness, sick child, or medical procedure and don't see the utilization of that time as having the potential to be an act of civil disobedience or protest against the government or their employer. However, one group rising in membership plans to use their sick time for precisely that — taking a page out of organized labor's handbook and using their collective action to expose and potentially even directly impact what they view as systemic injustices against the working class of the United States. Known as "The People's Sick Day," the...

    On a daily basis, ICE officers battle protesters who oppose the enforcement of immigration law. These attacks are coming from multiple sources, and challenge not only the effectiveness of ICE, but endanger the agents’ lives. June 9 was the onset of the protests in Los Angeles, which are actually being funded by our tax dollars:Los Angeles descended into turmoil this weekend as left-leaning activist organizations, funded by taxpayer dollars, are believed to have intensified protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). What started as a relatively small demonstration opposing the Trump administration’s crackdown on criminal illegal immigrants rapidly escalated into...

    You can visit the website to see what the insurrectionists have to say. Look at the map, enlarge it to see if a protest Thursday. July 17 is going to affect you. If it is, call your local sheriff's office to inform them of this right away. I called the one near me. Please ask them to make sure no one blocks highways. The website tells protestors NOT to bring weapons, but the demographic represented does anyway. I am personally completely fed up with the distinct minority trying to stop changes that we, the MAJORITY, voted for and want implemented....

    The contentious migrant effigies at the heart of a racism storm in Belfast have been set alight after police have made a decision not to assist Belfast City Council in helping contractors remove material from a bonfire site in the city. A Belfast City Council committee voted on Wednesday to send contractors to remove the towering pyre on Meridi Street off the Donegall Road. Belfast DUP councillors have launched a ‘call-in’ procedure over the planned removal of the controversial bonfire. The move comes in the wake of a vote at City Hall to remove the bonfire off the Donegall Road...

    A protest by hundreds against gentrification and mass tourism that began peacefully Friday in Mexico City neighborhoods popular with tourists turned violent when a small number of people began smashing storefronts and harassing foreigners. Masked protesters smashed through the windows and looted high-end businesses in the touristic areas of Condesa and Roma, and screamed at tourists in the area. Graffiti on glass shattered glass being smashed through with rocks read: “get out of Mexico.” Protesters held signs reading “gringos, stop stealing our home” and demanding local legislation to better regulate tourism levels and stricter housing laws. Marchers then continued on...

    SAN ANTONIO, Texas — Protests against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and President Trump are scheduled to take place on Tuesday in most major cities across the country. The well-organized campaign at “SICKOFICE.ORG” urges people to call out sick in solidarity with illegal aliens facing deportation. Much like the “No Kings” protests held in June to denounce the Trump administration’s efforts to conduct mass deportations of illegal aliens, Tuesday’s protests are being supported by the same activist organizations. The Party for Socialism and Liberation is actively promoting the “Sick of ICE” events nationwide on social media. The website associated with...

    The idea that Iran’s hostility toward Israel is driven by a “land dispute” is a gross oversimplification. Iran has no border with Israel, so the conflict has nothing to do with territorial claims. Instead, Iran’s animosity toward Israel is rooted in a deep ideological and religious hatred, one that spills over into its relationships with Palestinians. The issue isn’t about land—it’s about religious and ethnic bigotry. Iran’s obsession with destroying Israel and its treatment of Palestinians is more about an anti-Western, anti-Semitic agenda than any genuine desire to improve the lives of Arab Palestinians. Iran’s own behavior toward its Arab...

    A Salvadoran journalist with a large social media following for covering immigration raids may soon face deportation. Mario Guevara is facing possible deportation after being arrested at a protest in Georgia over the weekend and subsequently transferred to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody. Guevara was detained during a “No Kings” protest in Doraville, just northeast of Atlanta, where he was livestreaming the demonstration. He was released without bail by a judge; however, ICE authorities requested that he remain detained because of his immigration status, according to a report by CNN. Guevara entered the United States on a tourist...

    White House Director of Communications Steven Cheung blasted the leftist “No Kings” protests that took place on Saturday across the nation, saying they had poor attendance while President Donald Trump celebrated the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary in Washington, DC, with a parade, music, and fireworks. The anti-Trump protests were planned to coincide with the patriotic celebration that was held on Flag Day and the president’s birthday, as Breitbart News reported.

    Per the deal, Murphy, DFL-St. Paul, was to cast a vote in support of the bill, despite her adamant opposition to repealing the law that went into effect just a few months ago on Jan. 1. “I struck a deal. I gave my word, but I do not support this proposal,” Murphy said in her own floor speech, as she appeared to hold back tears welling in her eyes. Earlier in the day, the House passed the bill on a party-line vote, with the exception of House DFL Leader Melissa Hortman, who also agreed to vote for the proposal. Neither...

Al Sharpton, founder of another political nonprofit, National Action Network. Greenberg hailed an upcoming wave of protests this Saturday — set to sweep through even "really red areas of the country," marked with mostly Republican voters — as a stand against President Donald Trump.

    We are on the brink of something we have never seen before in modern American history–more than 1,800 (and counting) simultaneous political protests scheduled to erupt across the country on the very same day. This is not just another angry weekend. This is not just another round of “peaceful protests” spiraling into looting and lawlessness. No, this is coordinated, funded, and staged chaos being unleashed like a match dropped on a national powder keg. They’re calling it the “No Kings” protest, and it’s being billed as a “nationwide day of defiance.”

    “Just … follow the money.” – Deep Throat, All the President’s MenThat used to be the watchword for investigative journalists. If you want to uncover corruption, find out where the money is coming from and where it is going. At least it used to be.Today? Not so much. At least not when doing so could implicate Democrats or upset the left’s agenda.Case in point is the Los Angeles riots. There’s plenty of reason to believe that the riots are being organized and financed by unsavory characters whose mission is to foment division and violence in the United States.Some of the...

    MADISON, Wis. — The Madison Police Department is connecting with protest organizers to ensure peaceful demonstrations this weekend. "It's a very open and fluid conversation just to make sure that we have all the details ironed out," said Acting Madison Police Chief John Patterson. Saturday is being called "Day of Defiance" as people in several states host "No Kings" rallies to protest ICE raids along with President Donald Trump's polices. Acting Chief Patterson says the department has been working alongside organizers for days. "We've been in touch with the event organizer on Saturday. There's been great application and back and...

    Radical leftist agitators are planning a series of coordinated demonstrations across New Mexico on June 14, targeting President Donald Trump with what they’re branding as “No Kings” protests. But what organizers portray as “peaceful protests” have all the hallmarks of the kind of far-left mob activity that has already sparked violent insurrections in places like Los Angeles, where criminal aliens and anarchists recently clashed with federal law enforcement officers. The so-called “50501 Movement”—standing for 50 protests, 50 states, one movement—has aligned with fringe progressive groups to launch what they claim is a “nationwide day of defiance” against Trump’s leadership, coinciding...
