A new book being published by a pair of New York Times reporters writes that White House Office of Public Engagement director and senior adviser Cedric Richmond referred to two prominent members of "the Squad" as "f---ing idiots." An excerpt of the new book, "This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America's Future" by Alexander Burns and Jonathan Martin, obtained by Fox News Digital writes that Richmond, a former House member, made the comments about Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., to a friend. Counselor to the President Steve Ricchetti also had words for "the...

The incident occurred during a House Progressive Caucus press conference regarding the situation with Iran. In addition to laughing, Omar (D-MN) can be seen joking around with fellow progressive congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (D-MI). This all took place as Jackson Lee was providing the public with a respectful and solemn update on the history of casualties in the area. "We left four thousand plus – maybe even forty-four hundred dead and over sixty thousand who came back injured in some form, and the war never ended,” Jackson Lee said as Omar failed to contain her laughter.

The Arabs of Israel Are they a "persecuted minority?" In a recent poll, 70% of Israel's Arabs declared that they identified with and felt loyalty to the Palestinians, and not to the state of Israel. Significantly, however, the same percentage (70%) declared that they would much prefer to live in Israel than in any other country in the area.

**SNIP** Unusually, resident Joe Biden had to draw those lines with fellow Democrats. Defund the police? Forget about it, Biden said Tuesday night. With crime on the increase around the nation – making for a nervous midterm electorate – the answer is to fund the police, Biden said. He also said very pointedly that he is a capitalist, albeit one who thinks big corporations should “pay their fair share" in taxes. On immigration, Biden called for reform – while also saying that those who "are not legitimately here can be sent back" to their home countries. He also made a...

Bill Maher likened Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-MI) planned rebuttal to President Biden’s State of the Union address to a fellow teammate sacking their own quarterback. During a segment on his HBO Real Time show, Maher said he could not grasp why someone from the president’s own party would give a counter-address.

Progressive firebrand Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan will be delivering a response to President Biden’s State of the Union address next week. Tlaib, a member of the so-called "Squad" of progressive and diverse Democratic lawmakers in Congress, will give her address on behalf of the left-wing Workers Families Party, the group announced on Wednesday. Tlaib, a two-term lawmaker who made history as the first woman of Palestinian descent in Congress, represents a congressional district that includes parts of Detroit and its inner suburbs. She is expected to praise the president’s stimulus bill and argue that liberals have pushed hard to...

Although Israel is the world’s only Jewish state, it is home to a free and thriving Arab community. For decades, anti-Israel activists have decried Israel as an illegitimate state which represses Arabs and Muslims. Israel has been incorrectly labeled as a state for “settler colonialism” and apartheid. These baseless claims could not be further from the truth. Researchers have conducted surveys to shine a light on the true treatment of Arabs living in Israel. According to these surveys, there is a growing trend of Israeli Arabs ditching their former Palestinian identity and starting to identify more heavily with their Israeli...

U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., has complained to her colleagues in Congress that they haven't yet told taxpayers to take care of her remaining $70,000 in student-loan debt she incurred for her law degree

The uniformed officers had just sat down when staff members asked them to leave because the workers felt uncomfortable about the officers’ weapons, the restaurant said. Three uniformed San Francisco police officers sat down for a meal on Friday at an all-day breakfast restaurant. But it was not long before staff members of the restaurant, Hilda and Jesse, “felt uncomfortable with the presence of their multiple weapons” and “politely asked” the officers to leave, the restaurant said on Instagram on Saturday. That request drew widespread attention, with the San Francisco police chief criticizing the move and hundreds of people leaving...

The disbarred lawyer was handed a six-month imprisonment sentence in October for criminal contempt arising from a lawsuit brought by the oil company. The Democrats including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib on Monday said in a letter addressed to Attorney General Merrick Garland that the lawyer was jailed for "petty contempt of court". "As the United States is a party to the District Court case against Mr. Donziger, we request that you...

It’s the smile hoisted by Democratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib as she said yes, she supports the Breathe Act to release federal prisoners and no, she does not support releasing all federal prisoners. But sorta does.

A former Afghan interpreter resettled in California by the federal government was shot and killed last week after charging San Francisco police with a butcher knife and chanting “Allahu akbar.” In bodycam and surveillance footage, 41-year old Ajmal Amani can be seen rushing two police officers with a knife at a residential hotel in south San Francisco. The Afghan citizen can be clearly heard yelling the Islamist phrase in the bodycam, a development that suggests a terrorist motive in the attack.

It's a mystery.https://youtu.be/LuPmk0DfJaA

'White supremacy cannot be reformed’: Colin Kaepernick says the Rittenhouse verdict ‘validates the need to abolish our current system’ Posted at 6:43 pm on November 20, 2021 by Brett T. We’re still cruising along through the hottest takes on the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict. Not surprisingly, Colin Kaepernick blames the systematic racism built into the justice system for letting a white supremacist who committed terroristic acts to go free. We honestly think there needs to be another trial to acquit Rittenhouse of being a white supremacist so he can file libel suits against Kaepernick and Ayanna Pressley and Joe Biden. Where...
