JOSH LISEC to JACK POSOBIEC: The same ‘furry’ online world radicalized both Thomas Crooks and Tyler Robinson

Jack Posobiec and Unhumans coauthor Joshua Lisec broke down the deeply troubling overlap between the two most unbelievable acts of political violence in recent years: the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump by Thomas Matthew Crooks, and the killing of Charlie Kirk by Tyler Robinson.

Posobiec pointed to the reported online habits of both men, saying they were immersed in “the same type of fetish… this furry fetish.” Citing analysis from Dr. Chloe Carmichael, Posobiec read her assessment: “Crooks’ fixation on hybrid male-female body art and Robinson’s trans obsessions both suggest a drift away from basic human grounding… it’s just a further derailment of their concept of humanity.”

He argued this mindset breaks down the basics of human interaction. “This dovetails with treating the special human gift of language as dangerous,” he said. “They default to violence because they believe disagreement threatens their existence.”

Posobiec tied the issue to his op-ed at Human Events, “Making Beasts of Men,” where he asks why two high-profile political assassins are reportedly tied to the furry fetish. He connected the pattern to the broader decline of male stability in America, saying:

We need to understand how young, white men and their demonization and dispossession is driving more extreme sexual behavior, fetishes, and yes, violence…..


DHS arrests over 130 illegal immigrants in first 2 days of Operation Charlotte’s Web

Since the Department of Homeland Security announced on Saturday that it was “surging” resources to Charlotte, North Carolina, over 130 people have been arrested. The arrests come as part of the DHS’ Operation Charlotte’s Web.

A DHS spokesperson told WCNC, “During the first two days of Operation Charlotte’s Web, Border Patrol arrested over 130 illegal aliens who have all broken the immigration laws of our country. Criminal records of those arrested include known gang membership, aggravated assault, possession of a dangerous weapon, felony larceny, simple assault, hit and run, possession of stolen goods, shoplifting, DUI, DWI, and illegal re-entry after prior deportation, a felony.”

The spokesperson added, “We will not stop enforcing the laws of our nation until every criminal illegal alien is arrested and removed from our country.”

Border Patrol Commander Gregory K. Bovino shared some of the arrests that took place on social media, including criminals with charges and/or convictions for assault, DUI, and larceny.

On Sunday, Border Patrol and ICE agents were assaulted by a US citizen in the midst of Operation Charlotte’s Web. “This individual, a US citizen, assaulted Border Patrol and ICE agents with his vehicle in Charlotte.  Agents ended up taking him into custody after a pursuit that saw him drive erratically, including off road.  He will face stiff consequences for assault,” Bovino said. The DHS said that one law enforcement officer was injured in the incident….


Why We’re Sick — And How to Fix It: A Deep Dive with Paul Saladino – SF651

A sweeping conversation about how modern systems keep us nutritionally weak, spiritually dulled, and biologically confused — and how simply eating “food for humans” can reverse disease, restore vitality, and reconnect us to the sacred design behind our bodies.

Paul Saladino dismantles processed-food orthodoxy, exposes the institutional incentives that keep us sick, and lays out a path back to strength, sovereignty, and clear thinking — from meat and mitochondria to seed oils, vaccines, addiction, metabolic disease, and the spiritual dimension of reclaiming health.


Reality Caught Up to ‘Climate Change’

For decades, the monolithic and sacrosanct international climate change hierarchy went unquestioned.

Western nations in particular spent trillions of dollars over the past half-century to subsidize expensive but erratic wind and solar energy while demonizing carbon fuels as toxic threats to the planet.

Like Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion dogma, climate change orthodoxy was embedded into every aspect of Western culture, from the corporate boardroom to the university campus.

Question whether man-made global warming was truly responsible for increased temperatures rather than natural, often centuries-long cycles of heating and cooling of the planet, and one was labeled a climate crank.

Everything from declining fertility to forest fires was ridiculously attributed to climate change.

But the causes of both demographic crises and charred landscapes were more likely the result of new affluent lifestyles that saw child-rearing as too expensive and time-consuming, and misguided forest policies or underfunded firefighting.

Yet reality has caught up with the near-religious climate change cult.

One, the left-wing tech billionaires—exemplified by former climate change zealot Bill Gates—have become apostates of the green movement. Now they do not warn of a planet threatened by too much man-made heat but rather by too little man-made kilowattage.

They believe artificial intelligence will prove as transformative as the Industrial Revolution. But to win the AI revolution will require vast increases in electricity production, of up to a staggering 100 gigawatts a year of additional capacity.

Such enormous demand—to build the equivalent of a hundred huge power plants per year—is far beyond the ability of “renewables” alone.

Instead, the only solution is an “all of the above” strategy of building more nuclear, natural gas, clean-coal, wind, and solar generation plants.

Two, ascendant China’s massive arms buildup and its bullying Belt and Road imperialism have finally put international “climate accords” into question.

Even the environmentalist King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden has recently let it slip that he is troubled by why Europe sandbagged its own economy by shutting down its formerly efficient nuclear and fossil fuel plants. He reminded the world that the European Union nations contribute only six percent of the planet’s carbon emissions.

The West finally realizes that a cynical China has been playing it for years by funding green propaganda abroad.

Indeed, Beijing guilt-tripped Europe and the U.S. on global warming while it exported billions of dollars of cheap wind and solar generation products—often below its own cost of production….


Male Illegals Arrested for Repeatedly Raping Child Who Was Smuggled Into US as Baby, Tortured for 10 Years

The victim was smuggled across the border by her mother as a 1-year-old baby then placed in the custody of a sponsor, her great uncle Felix Bustillo Diaz, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Bustillo, 49, was granted Temporary Protected Status in 2024 by the Biden regime, despite being a criminal illegal alien from Honduras.

For reasons that remain unclear, the victim lived in Bustillo’s home for years, where she was allegedly raped repeatedly by him and another man identified as Jose Gerber-Rivera, a 45-year-old illegal alien from El Salvador.

“At one point, Bustillo’s victim managed to escape from Bustillo with the help of Brenda Garcia, 38, and Tania Garcia, 37, both Houston-area residents, who falsely told her they were rescuing her from being sexually abused only to allegedly zip-tie, beat, torture and malnourish the minor and force her to perform manual labor for them,” ICE explained in a press release.

Gerber-Rivera was arrested by the Montgomery County Constable’s Office on Nov. 4 in Woodlands, TX

Bustillo was already being held on immigration violations at the Montgomery Processing Center and was transferred to custody of the Harris County Sheriff’s Office on Nov. 5.

Clashes in Mexico City as ‘Gen Z’ protests leave 120 injured, 20 arrests

Clashes erupted in Mexico City on Saturday during a march against violence and corruption, leaving about 120 people injured, according to The Associated Press. The city’s public safety chief told Reuters that at least 100 police officers were injured, with 40 requiring hospital treatment. Authorities also reported 20 arrests and 20 civilian injuries.

The demonstrations, organized under a “Generation Z” banner, reflect a broader frustration with insecurity and perceived impunity, and were fueled by anger over the Nov. 1 public killing of Uruapan Mayor Carlos Manzo. The AP noted the march drew backing from older opposition supporters alongside younger protesters, signaling wider political resonance beyond youth organizers.

Witnesses described a chaotic scene in the capital’s Zócalo, where riot police used tear gas after hooded protesters dismantled fencing around the National Palace. In Mexico City, officials reported 20 arrests and referred another 20 individuals for administrative offenses. According to The Guardian, unrest also spread to Guadalajara, resulting in 13 injuries and 47 detentions.

Reuters reported chants calling for better security and targeting the ruling Morena party.

In response, President Claudia Sheinbaum condemned the violence, and also suggested the movement had been infiltrated by right-wing parties and artificially amplified by social media bots….


Politicians, Strategists Aggressively Push for Radical ‘Court Reform’ After Off-Year Election Results

Following the results of the off-year election, the far Left and politicians were quick to bring court-packing and radical “court reform” to the forefront of the national conversation.

Many are interpreting the election outcomes as a sign of a forthcoming shift in political power in the 2028 General Election. And if things do end up going their way at the ballot box, partisans and judicial activists will waste no time in “reforming” or completely restructuring the Supreme Court, which they see as the biggest obstacle to their radical agenda.

“Elections can have the same effect for some to become drunk on even the prospect of power,” writes attorney and legal scholar Jonathan Turley in an op-ed for The Hill. “That was the case this week as Democratic luminaries discussed plans to retake power and then fundamentally change the constitutional system.”

“That means weakening the greatest single check on power: the Supreme Court,” Turley continued. “The talk of court-packing had died down after Democrats lost both houses of Congress and the White House. Now, after the elections last week, such talk is back with a vengeance.”

In a recent podcast, Democratic political strategist James Carville predicted that “a Democrat is going to be elected in 2028” and will “announce a special transition advisory committee on the reform of the Supreme Court.”

“They’re going to recommend that the number of Supreme Court justices go from nine to 13,” Carville said. “They’re going to do some blue ribbon panel of distinguished jurists, and they are going to recommend 13, and a Democratic Senate and House is going to pass it, and the Democratic president is going to sign it, because they have to do an intervention so we can have a Supreme Court that the American people trust again.”

Obama’s U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder, says Democrats must make “court reform” a part of their party platform, which includes ending life tenure for Supreme Court justices and expanding the Court…..


Germany records highest number of arson attacks on Christian churches

Anti-Christian violence is on the rise. Christianity in Europe faces increasing intolerance, according to a report from the Austrian NGO OIDAC Europe. In 2024, there were 2,211 documented anti-Christian offenses, including vandalism and physical violence, affecting local communities.

Despite a slight decrease from 2023’s 2,444 incidents, OIDAC cautions that this may be due to inadequate reporting. Notably, attacks on individuals increased from 232 to 274.

Germany reported 337 anti-Christian crimes, up 22% from the previous year, leading Europe in church arson incidents. One survey indicated that many attacks in predominantly Catholic Poland go unreported, suggesting a broader issue of hostility towards Christians.


Elon Musk’s Tesla to Eliminate Chinese Components from American-Made Vehicles

The Wall Street Journal reports that Elon Musk’s Tesla is taking decisive steps to reduce its reliance on Chinese suppliers for its U.S.-made vehicles. The company has mandated that its suppliers exclude China-made components in the manufacturing of Tesla cars in the United States, according to people familiar with the situation. This move comes as a response to the deepening geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China.

The electric car maker has already started replacing some China-made components with parts manufactured elsewhere, in collaboration with its suppliers. Tesla aims to completely transition to non-Chinese components for its U.S. production within the next one to two years.

This accelerated strategy was triggered by President Trump’s imposition of steep tariffs on Chinese imports, making it imperative for the company to minimize its exposure to the uncertainties of the U.S.-China trade war.

China has been a major producer and exporter of auto parts, including chips, batteries, and materials used in car manufacturing. The country’s massive production scale, lower costs, and weak currency have made Chinese components more affordable for automakers.

However, the fluctuating tariff levels resulting from the trade dispute have made it challenging for Tesla to develop a consistent pricing strategy.

The recent geopolitical tensions between Washington and Beijing have further intensified Tesla’s urgency to pursue a China-free supply chain. Fresh disruptions in the supply of automotive chips, stemming from a dispute between China and the Netherlands, have prompted discussions within Tesla about the need to accelerate diversification efforts.

Tesla’s strategy to exclude China-made components is the latest example of how trade and geopolitical tensions are driving a decoupling of the world’s two largest economies and reshaping global supply chains. Many American companies are seeking to reduce their reliance on China-made components or manufacture outside of China for products destined for the U.S. market. Similarly, Chinese technology companies are removing American components and technology from their supply chains…..


San Antonio Nightclub Raid Nets 150 Arrests Amid Suspected Venezuelan Tren de Aragua Gang Ties

The early morning raid was executed at a makeshift nightclub in San Antonio on Sunday, leading to the detention of more than 150 patrons suspected of being in the United States illegally, according to sources familiar with the action.

Law enforcement authorities suspect the club was being used by members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, according to one news report.

An exclusive video of the early Sunday morning raid, which took place at a food trailer lot that housed a makeshift club on the same property, was posted by News 4 San Antonio on YouTube.

The video shows law enforcement agents arriving at the location as the raid began. According to the report, sources familiar with the action that took place at San Pedro Avenue and Basse Road on the city’s northside say the 150 people detained were from Mexico, Honduras, and Venezuela.

Breitbart Texas contacted the FBI on Sunday. A spokesperson with the agency provided the following statement:

I can confirm that FBI San Antonio and Homeland Security Investigations San Antonio, along with their local, state, and federal partners, are conducting court-authorized activity in the vicinity of the intersection of San Pedro Avenue and Basse Road in San Antonio, Texas. Additional information will be released as it becomes available.

The latest action follows an FBI investigation that led to an April raid in Austin involving the violent Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang. The court-approved search warrant executed on an Austin residence led to the arrest of more than 40 individuals, including minors, and an unspecified amount of illegal narcotic substances were seized. In that action, the FBI, ICE, Texas DPS Highway Patrol, and the San Antonio Police Department executed the raid on the residence suspected of hosting a gathering of suspected Tren de Aragua members and associates…..


VIDEO — Brooke Rollins: ‘Unbelievable’ That 186,000 Dead People Are Getting SNAP Benefits

The news comes after the Democrats’ government shutdown put some people in danger of losing their SNAP benefits.

While speaking about the program during an interview on Newsmax, Rollins said, “Here’s the most unbelievable news I have really just over the last few days, that 5,000 dead people, that was just one month. The number is closer to 186,000 deceased men and women and children in this country are receiving a check. Now, that is what we’re really gonna start clamping down on. Half a million are getting two.”

“But here’s the really stunning thing. This is just data from those 29 mostly red states. Can you image when we get our hands on the blue state data what we’re gonna find?” she added:

“It’s going to give us a platform and a trajectory to fundamentally rebuild this program, have everyone reapply for their benefit, make sure that everyone that’s taking a taxpayer-funded benefit through SNAP or food stamps, that they literally are vulnerable and they can’t survive without it. And that’s the next step here,” Rollins continued, per Breitbart News.

Meanwhile, Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-TX) has urged Rollins to expand her crackdown on illegal alien abuse and fraud within SNAP, Breitbart News reported November 9…..


ICE Detains Illegal Immigrant Who Attacked Jogging Texas Woman With Hammer

Sergio Noe de Nova Duarte (DHS)

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lodged an arrest detainer against an illegal alien from Mexico, Sergio Noe de Nova Duarte, following his arrest for a brutal attack on a woman jogging in Bob Woodruff Park in Plano, Texas.

De Nova Duarte was charged by the Plano Police Department on November 13 with aggravated kidnapping and bodily injury for allegedly attacking the innocent woman with a hammer. The ICE detainer was lodged with the Collin County Jail to prevent his release back into American communities while he faces criminal charges.

The incident has drawn sharp criticism regarding De Nova Duarte’s immigration status and prior interactions with law enforcement. ICE officials noted that the suspect possesses a “lengthy rap sheet,” including previous arrests in 2024 for burglary and larceny.

According to ICE, following his 2024 arrests, the agency apprehended De Nova Duarte, but the “Biden administration released him into the country with a notice to appear before an immigration judge in 2026.”

Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin issued a strong statement regarding the case….
