Trump threatens to bomb Oman if it gets in way of Iran deal: Report www.channelnewsasia.com

EXCERPT:

WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump on Monday (Aug 17) threatened to bomb Oman if it “gets in the way” of a US deal with Iran on the Strait of Hormuz and called for Iran to surrender.

“If Oman gets in the way, we’ll bomb the shit out of them,” Trump told Fox News journalist Trey Yingst, referring to ongoing talks between Oman and Iran on control of the strait, while Washington is also pursuing its own talks.

Iranian and Omani officials have been talking for weeks on future maritime navigation arrangements through the shipping route, and the foreign ministry in Tehran said earlier Monday that the two sides were working on a joint declaration.

However, Trump has repeatedly insisted that the strait – which Tehran effectively closed at the start of the Middle East war on Feb 28 – is under US control despite traffic remaining throttled.

On Friday, Trump claimed that he would even declare the Strait of Hormuz part of US territory, while Iran retorted that the crucial energy waterway it has blockaded “will remain Iranian”.

Prior to the launch of the US-Israeli war against Iran, the Hormuz Strait was considered an open, international waterway. It carries significant portions of global energy shipments, as well as other commodities.

Democrat Rep. Ro Khanna, who is openly floating a run for the presidency in 2028, is now advocating for a “multi-racial New Deal” because of the allegedly racist nature of the United States.

“A multi-racial New Deal, in my view, is what is needed,” Khanna told NPR. “It will probably be one of America’s greatest moments because of what we can do, or will do, in America. I don’t know if it’ll be my generation or the next generation. We will become the world’s first cohesive multi-racial democracy.”

Khanna’s proposal has followed the work of his fellow California Democrats, who approved a “reparations fund” for black residents in San Francisco earlier this year. A proposal for the fund had suggested that the city dole out one-time payments to the tune of $5 million for each eligible party.

They came specifically to watch Sophie Cunningham, the only player in the woke WNBA with the courage to speak biological truth out loud and stand against men invading women’s sports.

They showed up wearing XX/XY shirts in open support of that stance. The back of the daughter’s shirt delivered a simple, unambiguous message: “For the girls.”

They say arena staff confronted them over their clothing and gave them two choices: Cover their shirts or leave, according to Adam Francisco. They were handed oversized shirts to throw on over their own clothes like they were the problem.

Democratic Socialists of America’s Plan to Infiltrate Unions www.dailysignal.com

EXCERPT:

The Democratic Socialists of America is quietly building a network of activists to influence unions that are central to the Democratic Party.

The organization’s plan encourages young socialists to select jobs where they can either unionize or join existing unions and move them further to the Left. While most Americans are aware of DSA-backed officeholders Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Zohran Mamdani, the strategy of placing members in unions may actually yield more important dividends to the organization’s long-term goals.

From 2018 to 2021, the Young Democratic Socialists of America adopted a “rank-and-file” strategy as a national priority, emphasizing that “socialists must enter the labor movement on the shop floor as rank and file members of labor unions.”

The goal, as the group explained it, was “to reconnect the labor movement to the socialist movement in order to strengthen the militancy and class consciousness of the multiracial, multigendered working class to fight capitalism.”

“We aim to turn the unions we join into strong, militant, democratic organizations that can win major gains for workers, by workers,” the rank-and-file project’s website stated.

Why infiltrate the unions? To leverage them for the Left’s omni cause, the group explicitly stated.

ERO Cross Check 2017” by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Public Domain Mark

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has formally backed a resolution calling for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Newsweek reports that DNC members approved the measure Saturday during the party’s summer meeting in Austin, Texas, calling on congressional Democrats to pass legislation eliminating ICE and winding down the federal immigration detention system.

The resolution also calls for withholding Department of Homeland Security funding unless the administration ends a series of enforcement practices, including workplace raids, large-scale roundups and arrests at courthouses and ICE check-ins.

It additionally demands the closure of immigration detention facilities, the termination of private detention contracts and the release of most immigration detainees while their cases proceed.

The vote makes abolishing ICE a position formally endorsed by the DNC, although it does not amend the Democratic Party’s official national platform.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul Announces New Law That Bars Police From Working With ICE www.louderwithcrowder.com

EXCERPT:

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has once again proved just how much the left hates you — the American people.

Hochul announced that a new state law that bars police from cooperating with ICE agents has gone into effect. She did this because, according to the left, no human is illegal. Well, unless, of course, you are a law enforcement officer working with federal agents to uphold national security. That, in fact, would be illegal, according to Hochul.

Per CBS:

It bans local government agencies from maintaining agreements with ICE for civil enforcement. It also prohibits ICE agents from using local detention centers for civil enforcement, including mass raids.

“Local police will assist ICE only if a real crime has been committed,” Hochul said. “But on civil immigration matters, ICE is on their own.”

The problem with this claim is that breaking federal immigration laws is a crime. Can someone please clear that up for the Governor?

She said the law will help protect immigrants from aggressive enforcement while they pursue asylum claims.

What a bunch of nonsense. This is nothing more than an effort to vilify federal agents, while turning a blind eye to criminal aliens who have disregarded this country’s laws from the very start.

Back in July, state officials sent letters to 12 local law enforcement agencies that have agreements with ICE. The letters stated that they must unwind the agreements by Aug. 25.

After 18 months of prosecution, Maryland abruptly put its cases against three Zizian trans cult members on indefinite hold. Officials have not publicly explained why.

CUMBERLAND, Md. — Maryland state felony prosecutions against three members of the Zizian trans death cult have been indefinitely suspended for unknown reasons.

The cases against cult leader Jack “Ziz” LaSota and subordinates Michelle “Jamie” “Alex” Zajko and Daniel “Hastur” Blank were made inactive on Aug. 14; All scheduled future trial dates were canceled.

LaSota, Zajko and Blank were arrested together following a national manhunt on Feb. 16, 2025 in rural western Maryland. They were found with a cache of weapons in their two box trucks. They had spent years moving around the country as members of the Zizians, a radical transgender cult who has been linked to at least eight violent deaths.

The three initially faced only misdemeanor trespassing, firearms and obstruction charges after an elderly Frostburg-area property owner reported that they had arrived in box trucks and asked to camp on his property.

Authorities later added charges involving the alleged illegal possession and carrying of concealed and loaded firearms.

Thailand’s Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, already facing a flood crisis in the country’s north, held an urgent meeting on Sunday with high-level security officials in response to coordinated violence overnight in three southern provinces where a small-scale Muslim insurgency is active.

The meeting, held shortly before Anutin flew north to inspect the badly flooded province of Nan, followed 51 incidents on Saturday night in the southernmost provinces of Narathiwat, Pattani and Yala.

The attackers did not engage with military or police forces. Only three civilians were known to have been wounded and they were reported to be recovering on Sunday.

The violence primarily involved small bombs, arson and other forms of property damage. The highest-profile target was a 7-Eleven convenience store in Pattani.

A video circulating on social media appeared to show armed men stalking outside the store while customers and workers fled before it was set on fire.

A bomb that damaged rail tracks in Narathiwat forced the suspension of local and long-haul services. It was not clear when they would be restored due to the uncertain security situation.

Left-wing extremists and Antifa militants stormed the Precious Blood Catholic Church in Los Angeles on Saturday, August 23, where right-wing activist and free speech advocate Eoin Richard was hosting a peaceful free speech, anti-Islam rally.

The confrontation unfolded after Connolly, known publicly as Eoin Richard, organized a “Take Back LA” free-speech rally criticizing Islam.

Connolly originally advertised the August 23 demonstration outside the Islamic Center of Southern California on Vermont Avenue.

As counter-protesters gathered outside the Islamic center, Connolly reportedly redirected supporters to the nearby Precious Blood Catholic Church in Koreatown.

The Senate Race In Alaska Is What A Rigged Election Looks Like thefederalist.com
News Source
EXCERPT:

If you want to know what a “rigged” election looks like, look no further than the U.S. Senate primary race still underway in Alaska. As of this writing, the Republican incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan trails Mary Peltola, a Democrat and former member of the House, by about 5 points.

Some 30,000 votes are still uncounted, but it won’t change the fundamentals going into the November general election thanks to Alaska’s insane and fraudulent ranked-choice voting regime. In Alaska, the primary purpose of ranked-choice voting (or RCV) is to prevent conservative Republicans from winning statewide office and to keep Sen. Lisa Murkowski in Washington.

Full disclosure: I grew up in Alaska and live there now, and while I’m immensely proud to be from this great state and great land in the majestic northern marches of America, our voting system here is an embarrassment.

Ranked-choice voting, or RCV, replaced our party primary system with an open or “jungle primary” in which any resident of the state can sign up as a candidate and appear on the ballot. But we have RCV, which means after the primary the top four candidates advance to the general election, in which voters are supposed to rank their preferred candidates instead of simply choosing one.

That means you could potentially have two Republicans and one Democrat on the general election ballot, which all but guarantees the Democrat will win. And of course that’s exactly how Mary Peltola was elected in 2022. She ran in a special election to replace the late Rep. Don Young, a Republican who had held Alaska’s sole U.S. House seat for 49 years. The Republican vote split between Sarah Palin and Nick Begich (now a member of the House), and Peltola eked out a victory in the “second round” of vote-counting.

PATNA, India: Indian students and unemployed youth clashed with police on Tuesday (Aug 25) as they marched towards the residence of the chief minister of the eastern state of Bihar, demanding access jobs and transparency in recruitment exams.

Police in Bihar, home to about 130 million people, used water cannons as a few thousand protestors broke through security barricades in the regional capital Patna, an AFP reporter saw.

The protests came a month after massive youth-led demonstrations in New Delhi forced the ouster of India’s education minister over alleged irregularities in conducting key competitive examinations.

Footage from local media showed demonstrators in Patna demanding access to government jobs, the cancellation of a key recruitment exam and changes to the examination format announcement by the government.

Local police accused some protestors of attacking security personnel.

“Police will identify those involved in stone pelting at police and will take action against them,” Patna police superintendent Kartikeya K Sharma told reporters on Tuesday.

The protests began last week with unemployed youth demanding jobs, but they later expanded to include calls for education reform.

 

Hasan Piker Sang About Charlie Kirk. The Crowd Cheered. That Says Plenty. – PJ Media pjmedia.com
News Source

EXCERPT:

Most Americans are pretty good at leaving each other alone. Vote differently, worship differently, live differently, and go home to your family. But there are lines decent people recognize without needing a political consultant to explain them. Hurt children, brutalize women, or torment a grieving family.





Something basic in us recoils.

Hasan Piker found one of those lines Friday night in San Francisco and danced on it.

During a live performance of his Fears& podcast, Piker led a packed theater in a mocking rendition of “We Are Charlie Kirk,” a tribute song that appeared after Charlie Kirk was assassinated at Utah Valley University last Sept. 10.

His co-hosts laughed, the audience cheered and sang along, and Piker later posted a photo from the show with the caption, “Carried the flame tn.”

Jonathan Turley says what many of us are thinking:

What is exasperating is how hatemongers on the left want to enjoy hate speech while accusing others of hate and intolerance. They do so by excusing their actions or views by demonizing those who disagree. Democratic leaders continue the false claim that democracy is dying in America and that this may be our last free election. While made over multiple elections, the claim of the imminent death of democracy (unless they are elected) does not appear to register with their supporters.

Recently the rhetoric has reached hysterical levels. Florida Democratic Senate candidate Angie Nixon has compared Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to “modern-day slave catchers” and the government is “literally trying to kill us.”

It is a narrative that allows you to speak like a Nazi while claiming to be fighting Nazis.

Piker thrilled the crowd by mocking a murdered man over his faith and his death. It is more than being simply classless. It is commodifying rage. Piker is reportedly raking in a fortune as are other hatemongers like Jennifer Welch. They traffic in rage to a nation of rage addicts.

It is a scene that only reaffirms the work of Kirk who sought to expose the hate and intolerance of the left, particularly on our campuses. Kirk infuriated many by challenging them to debate. There is no room for reason in an age of rage. Those who try to introduce opposing views on campuses are cancelled or attacked.





The timing makes the performance even uglier. Turning Point USA is preparing to return to Utah Valley University on Sept. 10 for a memorial marking one year since Kirk was murdered there. 

From Newsmax:

The conservative youth organization said the “Freedom Built to Last” gathering will remember Kirk as a Christian husband and father, a free-speech advocate, and a leader who helped build a movement among young Americans.

“The gathering will honor Charlie as a faith-filled husband, father, and defender of free speech,” Turning Point said in Friday’s release, calling the event “a deliberate act of remembrance, and a call for students and supporters to continue his life’s work.”

The memorial will be held at UVU’s UCCU Center, about a five-minute walk from the amphitheater where Kirk was fatally shot while speaking to thousands of students during the opening stop of his “All-American Comeback Tour.”

Speakers will include conservative talk-show host and Blaze Media founder Glenn Beck; Christian author Frank Turek, a friend and mentor to Kirk; and Turning Point Chief Field Officer Andrew Sypher.

Erika Kirk, Charlie’s widow and now CEO and board chair of Turning Point USA, will help lead an organization and a family into an anniversary nobody should ever have to mark.

Piker knew what he was mocking, and so did the crowd.





From Legal Insurrection:

The backlash from conservatives intensified as video of Piker’s disturbing display ricocheted across the internet Saturday.

Appalled by Piker’s deliberate mockery of the man who had once been his close friend and mentor, Turning Point spokesman Andrew Kolvet wrote, “Hasan Piker is engaging in pure, unadulterated evil. ‘Whoever gloats over disaster will not go unpunished.’ Proverbs 17:5”

Conservative firebrand Jack Posobiec noted in the X post below, “Here is Hasan Piker now mocking the murder of Charlie Kirk as we approach the 1 year anniversary of his assassination. The Bolsheviks will kill us all and they will laugh about it.”

Responding to Posobiec, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) wrote, “These aren’t just people who disagree with us politically. They are enemies of everything that is good and holy about our civilization. And they will stop at nothing to destroy it.

His political record deserves attention because he’s no longer merely an internet provocateur shouting into a camera. Piker has said Hamas is “1,000 times better” than Israel, said he had no issues with Hezbollah, compared liberal Zionists to “liberal Nazis,” and previously apologized for calling ultra-Orthodox Jews “inbred.

Piker rejected accusations that he’s antisemitic and says he opposes anti-Jewish violence. His own words still leave a remarkable record for others to judge.





Michigan Democratic Sen. nominee Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed chose to campaign with Piker at Michigan State University and the University of Michigan in April. El-Sayed defended the appearance as a way to reach young people who feel shut out of politics. 

He later won Michigan’s Democrat Senate primary, becoming one of the most prominent progressive nominees of 2026.

Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) hasn’t swallowed the Democrat Party.

Yet.

Very few Democrat candidates are members. Its growing influence, however, is becoming hard to dismiss. The organization says it has more than 100,000 members and has endorsed 150 candidates this year. Democratic Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland said Sunday that the DSA deserves a place in the debate over his party’s return.

The country remains far less enthusiastic. A July poll found only 27% of Americans believe democratic socialists have at least some good ideas, while 51% say they have few or none.

So Democrats eventually have to answer a difficult question. After a decade in which opposition to President Donald Trump became one of the party’s defining forces, what else has been allowed through the door?

Political movements reveal themselves partly through what they celebrate, tolerate, and refuse to condemn. The first anniversary of his murder is approaching. His widow, family, friends, and organization are preparing to remember him.





Hasan Piker gave his crowd a song while they gave him cheers.

Character sometimes announces itself very clearly.

DHS Rips Radical Boston Mayor’s ‘Unhinged’ Move to Track & Target Property Owners Leasing to ICE slaynews.com

EXCERPT:

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has blasted Boston’s far-left Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu as “unhinged” after her administration sought information identifying private businesses and property owners that could provide parking to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

The confrontation erupted after Boston barred ICE from using city-owned parking lots to stage immigration enforcement operations.

ICE responded by looking to the private sector, issuing a notice seeking 249 contiguous parking spaces in Boston as part of a wider search for “surge parking” across 14 U.S. cities.

Wu then urged private garage and parking lot owners to reject ICE while revealing that Boston had submitted a Freedom of Information Act request seeking “any local responses to ICE.”

DHS accused the mayor of attempting to intimidate private property owners because she lacks the authority to stop them from voluntarily doing business with federal law enforcement.

“These actions by sanctuary Mayor Michelle Wu are unhinged,” DHS said.
