MUST WATCH: TPUSA staffer attacked by pro-Hamas supporters in Illinois while escorting elderly Jewish couple through crowd

The attack is just the latest in a string of similar incidents that have taken place at anti-Israel rallies across the US and around the globe.

Footage of the incident, which took place following a pro-Israel rally at the Ateres Ayala event space on Touhy Avenue in Skokie, shows Christos being pulled into the mob of Palestinian flag-waving demonstrators before being pushed into a bush and beaten.

Another angle shows two men on top of Christos punching him repeatedly while another hits him with a flag pole. 

The reaction from the crowd was mixed. While some cheered the attackers on, others screamed in horror and tried to pull the men off of Christos.


Eric Adams warns NYC is ‘out of room,’ migrants will soon sleep on the street

A visibly frustrated Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday that he was planning to put migrants into new tent shelters because NYC was “out of room” — and that all options were now on the table as he feared a coming epidemic of migrants sleeping on the streets.

Adams said his office was working with experts to find a “humane” solution to the city’s overstuffed shelter system, which is caring for more than 60,000 asylum seekers in addition to the tens of thousands of homeless New Yorkers to whom it also provides services.

“When we reach that point [people sleeping on streets], we need to manage it [so that] it is not a citywide visual state of chaos.


Exclusive: He Blames COVID Protocols for His Mother’s Death. Now This Filmmaker Is Using His Camera to Tell Other Victims’ Stories.

Clover Carroll is CEO of New Story Media, a company he co-founded to produce content for major television networks. But after his mother’s death — which Carroll blamed on COVID-19 hospital protocols — Carroll found a new calling: telling the stories of other protocol victims.

Carroll has produced the first of what he hopes will be a series of documentaries, titled “Do No Harm: The Clifton Dawley Story,” featuring the story of Clifton Dawley, whose son believes his father also died because of COVID-19 hospital protocols.

Carroll has teamed with prominent medical figures such as Dr. Peter McCullough, who attempted to assist in the treatment of Carroll’s mother and who also appears in “Do No Harm.” Carroll also has worked with the FormerFedsGroup Freedom Foundation, an activist group for protocol victims.

In an exclusive interview with The Defender, Carroll chronicled how his mother’s story led him down the path toward producing “Do No Harm” and becoming an activist.

He also discussed his next steps, including upcoming productions in the “Do No Harm” series.


One Migrant for Every American Newborn

More than 4 million economic migrants crossed the southern border during the government’s October-to-September budget year, according to federal data released October 21.

In contrast, 3.67 million Americans were born during the matching 12-month period in 2022, according to the Census Bureau. That 2022 number includes at least 400,000 births to illegal migrants.

The inflow also creates vast economic competition for the 3 million American youths who graduated from schools in the 10 months up to October 2022, the bureau reported.

One predictable result is that the new migrants are pricing ordinary Americans out of housing.

Watchdog Group Sues Biden’s DHS for Hiding ‘Special Amnesty’ Policy to Fly Deported Illegal Aliens Back to U.S

On Monday, executives with IRLI announced their lawsuit against DHS, accusing the agency of refusing to disclose details about its policy, announced in July 2021, to allow certain illegal aliens who served in the U.S. Armed Forces to return to the U.S. despite having been deported for committing crimes.

“This administration has made clear its desire to keep criminal aliens in the country, and now they are exploiting the American people’s support of military veterans to allow more potentially dangerous aliens to stay,” IRLI Executive Director Dale Wilcox said in a statement:

To make it worse, this White House is ignoring its legal obligation to respond to requests for information about this program. We will pursue this case so our citizens can know the truth about yet another Biden Administration effort that goes against their interests. [Emphasis added]


Anti-Israel protestors declare ‘Palestinian liberation is black liberation’ at ‘Gays 4 Gaza’ march

In Washington Square Park, the crowd yelled “f*ck Israel,” with speakers telling the crowd, “we understand that Palestinian liberation is black liberation.”

Marching through the streets and into the park, the group chanted, “hey hey, ho ho, the occupation has got to go,” “queer rights, trans rights, we say no to genocide,” and “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”

Israeli UN ambassador demands UN secretary-general resign after ‘shocking’ speech

Ambassador Gilad Erdan described Guterres’ remarks as “shocking” for stating that the Oct. 7 terror attacks on Israel by Hamas “did not happen in a vacuum” and that the “Palestinian people have been subjected to 56 years of suffocating occupation.”

“The shocking speech by the @UN Secretary-General at the Security Council meeting, while rockets are being fired at all of Israel, proved conclusively, beyond any doubt, that the Secretary-General is completely disconnected from the reality in our region and that he views the massacre committed by Nazi Hamas terrorists in a distorted and immoral manner,” Erdan posted on X, formerly Twitter.

Responding to Guterres at the U.N., Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen said, “As we meet here today, young babies, children are held in Gaza. This is beyond imagination. A living nightmare.”

“They are victims of evil,” he added. “Mr. Secretary-General, in what world do you live? Definitely, this is not our world.”


More Arrests Made Over ‘Allah hu Akbar’ Brussels Terror Attack

Two people have been arrested on suspicion of criminal terrorist association over alleged links to the October 16th terrorist attack in Brussels, Belgium. The two unnamed individuals are said by French specialist counter-terror prosecutors, Paris newspaper Le Figaro reports, to have complicity in terrorist “assassination”.

The pair are being held in pre-trial detention. Six people have been arrested in France over the Belgium attack so far, and four continue to be held.

It is believed that failed Tunisian asylum seeker Abdesalem Lassoued was behind the deaths of two Swedish football fans in Brussels last Monday.

It is claimed he rode around the city on a moped while carrying an assault rifle-type long arm and shot at members of the public while shouting the infamous Arabic war cry “Allah hu Akbar”.


GRAPHIC: Cartel Gunmen Kill 13 Mexican Cops in Violent Coastal State Attack

A statement from the Guerrero Attorney General’s Office revealed that the mass killings took place on Monday in the municipality of Coyuca. The victims included the city’s Public Security Secretary Alfredo Alonso Benitez and 12 of his officers and top aides.

The attack occurred shortly after noon when the group of police officers was patrolling the region near the town of El Papayo when the officers became the target of an ambush. The gunmen killed some of the officers and took several others captive, only to execute them shortly after.

The violence in Guerrero comes at a time when several criminal organizations continue to fight for control of the region’s lucrative drug trafficking routes into Mexico and drug production areas in the rural communities.

As Breitbart Texas reported, historically, factions tied to the Familia Michoacana have had influence in Guerrero. They have been fighting with several groups tied to other cartels such as Cartel Jalisco New Generation, Sinaloa Cartel, and other organizations.


This Is the Gate of Hell’: Israeli Forensic Team Shows Media Bodies of Hundreds of Hamas Terror Victims

Joel Pollak / Breitbart News

Michal Levin Elad, a 25-year veteran of crime scene investigations for the Israeli police, told reporters:

“We have seen children who were decapitated. We have seen children who were dismembered. It’s sights I have never seen before and hope to God I never see again.”

One particularly difficult moment, she said, was when they had to examine the body of one of their colleagues — a forensic investigator who had been at the Supernova music festival.

House speaker: GOP nominee Tom Emmer drops out of race

Rep. Tom Emmer dropped out of the House speaker’s race just hours after being nominated for the position by his fellow Republicans, multiple members of Congress told NewsNation Tuesday.

Emmer had been chosen as the GOP’s nominee after an internal conference meeting earlier in the day. However, more than two dozen people in the party said they wouldn’t vote for him — even after Emmer tried changing their minds.

Initially, there were eight people being considered for speaker at the Tuesday meeting — though this number dwindled as the morning went on.


EXCLUSIVE from Rep. Keith Self: ‘How Was Jordan, Founder of House Freedom Caucus and the Nation’s Second Most Popular Conservative, Blocked by the Republican Party?’

Rep. Keith Self (R-TX) with Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH)

He was a threat to the Swamp.  Yes, America lost to the swamp.  Again.  Hill reporters (who live and breathe on Washington speculation) quickly chalked up the defeat to differences and preferences within the Republican Conference.  However, those in the grassroots realize that Jordan’s defeat represents something far greater – something that has been building for a long time.

Jordan was a threat to “the system.”  Aka, the traditions, the hierarchy, and the old-guard beliefs engrained in Congress to protect the Washington elites who control money and power with no intention of relinquishing either. 

To “the system,” known to many as the Establishment, Jordan represented the thousands of Americans who lit up Washington’s phonelines last week demanding real change – perhaps the most frightening possibility to the Establishment.

While admittedly it was dismaying to witness the Republican conference block Jordan from becoming Speaker of the House, I looked at the situation from a wider lens and things appeared quite different.  In fact, it was stunning to see just how far the conservative movement has come.

House Republicans: Joe Biden Has No Authority to Import Palestinians to U.S. Through Parole Loophole

Reps. Josh Brecheen (R-OK), Andy Ogles (R-TN), Jeff Duncan (R-SC), and Clay Higgins (R-LA) have sent a letter to Biden asking him to oppose resettling Palestinians across American communities — an issue the White House has been silent on even as Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) have voiced their support for such a plan.

The Republicans write that “no authority exists to grant categorical parole” to a group of foreign nationals, even as Biden opened parole pipelines for Afghans and Ukrainians in the last two years.

“… we are deeply opposed to any potential attempts to parole into the U.S. Palestinians en masse following Israel’s counteroffensive against Hamas in Gaza,” they continue:


Tom Emmer Faces Uphill Climb for Floor Votes after Finally Winning Nomination on Fifth Ballot

Emmer may rely on Democrats to win the gavel. While it is unlikely Democrats will vote for him, Capitol Hill is bustling with rumors that Democrats may vote “present” or avoid the vote altogether, in numbers sufficient to lower Emmer’s threshold for victory from 217.

Former President Donald Trump, who had recently endorsed Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), took to Truth Social Tuesday before voting to express his displeasure with Emmer.

Trump shared a message saying, “President Trump doesn’t support Tom Emmer, and neither should you!!!”

The conference has not announced when it will take Emmer’s nomination to the House floor.
