Multiculturalism is on the march in California: A Democratic state lawmaker has introduced a bill to recognize two Muslim holidays as official state holidays.

Fox 11 reports that California State Assembly member Matt Haney (D–San Francisco) has introduced AB 2017, which would designate Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha as state holidays and would, in Haney’s words, ensure that Muslims are “seen, valued and treated with the same dignity as every other community in our state.”

According to the New York Post, Eid al-Adha is among the most important holidays in Islam alongside Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan—the month in which faithful Muslims fast from dawn until sunset.

The U.S. Embassy in Baghdad came under a heavy barrage of rockets and drones early Tuesday in what Iraqi security sources described as one of the most intense attacks on the capital since the war erupted.

Witnesses said two drones were shot down by the embassy’s C-RAM defense system, while a third struck a building inside the embassy compound, sparking a fire and sending thick smoke into the sky.

Video seen by CNN showed air defenses intercepting what appeared to be a drone over Baghdad. The clip captured the moment it was hit, followed by a blast about 1,000 meters from the embassy compound.

“There it is, there it is,” a voice is heard saying in the video as the drone was intercepted.

Internet Erupts As Possibly Dead New Supreme Leader of Iran Was Maybe LGBTQ – RedState– redstate.com

The irony is thicker than the haze described by the band Deep Purple in their classic hard-rocking tune, Smoke on the Water. The new Supreme leader of Iran, Mojtaba Khamenei (son of the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei) — who nobody is sure is even alive or dead — may be (have been?) gay.

This, in one of the most anti-LGBTQ regimes in the world — one that is reportedly prone to hanging homosexuals in the public square. Not surprisingly, the internet went wild with memes and jokes.

Although the conflict with Iran is anything but funny, sometimes humor best exposes the absurdity of the backward regime and its murderous leaders (the ones who are still left breathing, anyway).

Iran Missile Strike Hit Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem– gellerreport.com

A near disaster took place in Israel. Iran launched missiles into the Old City of Jerusalem. The missiles were intercepted. However, the debris landed just a few feet away from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. One of the most sacred sites in Christianity, believed to be the place of Jesus’ crucifixion, burial, and resurrection.

Just a reminder, the only reason Christian holy sites in the Old City of Jerusalem remain standing, is because it is part of Israel. If the Palestinians controlled the Old City of Jerusalem’s Christian Quarter, all traces of Christianity would be attacked and destroyed. Exactly what the Palestinians have tragically done to the once flourishing Christian community in Bethlehem.

Ali Larijani, the closest thing Iran’s Islamic Republic currently has (er, had) to a political leader, is believed dead following an Israeli airstrike Tuesday. And that’s just the start of today’s good news concerning Operation Epic Fury/Roaring Lion.

It seems like only yesterday [It was only yesterday, Steve —Editor] that we discussed how Iran’s regime losses — from the topmost echelons all the way down to Basij street-thug enforcers — make the country increasingly ripe for regime change.

Well, yesterday’s news of limited drone strikes on individual Basij thugs pales in comparison to today’s news from Mossad Commentary [unofficial]: “Overnight strikes reportedly killed ~300 Basij commanders and field officials, targeting key command, logistics, and operational centers across Tehran.”

Facilities hit include “vehicle repair units, Mohammad Rasoulollah Corps HQ, Imam Hadi command center, and Imam Ali battalions.” The result is that “the Basij’s capability to mobilize against protests and maintain internal control” is severely degraded.

It’s this big a deal:

Federal immigration authorities have finally arrested a dangerous illegal alien from El Salvador who was wanted for horrific crimes against children, weeks after anti-ICE activists disrupted an earlier attempt to take him into custody.

Walter Roberto Vides-Ortez was arrested on March 12, according to federal officials, following a failed operation in February that was interrupted by activists in Boston.

Activists Disrupt Initial ICE Operation

Agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement were attempting to arrest Vides-Ortez on February 12 at his residence in East Boston.

Officers were waiting in vehicles for the suspect to emerge when a group of activists surrounded them, blowing whistles, shouting obscenities.

They even accused agents of traumatizing children at a nearby elementary school close to where the suspect was living.

One agitator called the agents a “criminal.”

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) is defending the man who worked security for her but was killed during a law enforcement standoff in Dallas on Wednesday and accused of pretending to be a policeman.

Thirty-nine-year-old Diamon Mazairre-Robinson had barricaded himself inside a parking garage at Children’s Medical Center Dallas after police tracked him down as they were investigating an active warrant, Fox News reported Monday.

Police video showed the moments SWAT officers told Robinson to get out of the car and obey their commands so that he would not get hurt. The officers deployed tear gas to force him out of the vehicle and as he got out of the car and stood up, an officer told him multiple times not to reach.

However, the suspect appeared to reach toward his waist and point a gun at the officers who opened fire:

In addition to going by the name Mike King and running a business called Off Duty Police Services, Robinson was accused of impersonating a policeman, wearing fake uniforms that made him appear to be a federal agent, and running the fraudulent business to hire legitimate police officers for off-duty gigs.

Democrats in Congress continue to resist the SAVE America Act by claiming that it seeks a return to the “Jim Crow era” and “discriminates” against women, but can they back up their claims?

Democrats in the House and Senate have repeatedly claimed the legislation is discriminatory, though many of the bill’s provisions, which include requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote and voter ID, poll overwhelmingly positively with Americans.

The SAVE America Act has already passed the House, but the Senate is considering the bill this week.

Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, claimed in an online video statement that married women would be banned from registering to vote if they change their name.

“If you’re a woman who got married, changed your last name, and if your last name doesn’t match the last name on your birth certificate, you’re not going to be able to register to vote,” the Hawaii senator claimed. “That I call stealing our votes.”

Judge’s ‘crass’ anti-trans dissent draws attention to moral insanity of Ninth Circuit ruling– www.lifesitenews.com

 Circuit Judge Lawrence Van Dyke attracted the ire of nearly 30 of his colleagues after writing a furious and crude dissent in response to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision not to review the claims of Olympus Spa. The Christian business in Washington state claims that their constitutional rights have been violated by a law requiring them to permit trans-identifying men into their facility.

In 2020, trans-identifying man Haven Wilvich filed a complaint against the spa for denying him service with the Washington Human Rights Commission. Olympus Spa, which is owned by conservative Christians, settled in 2021 with the WHRC by promising to change its policies forbidding trans-identifying men from using their facility, but also stated that the settlement was forced and violated their freedom of association, freedom of speech, and exercise of religion under the First Amendment.

The following year, Olympus brought a constitutional challenge, which was dismissed in 2023 by a federal judge who claimed that because the state’s “anti-discrimination” law applies to all businesses, the law does not specifically violate the rights of the owners of Olympus. In May, the Ninth Circuit affirmed the ruling 2-1. Last week, the full court voted not to review that decision. Enter Judge Lawrence Van Dyke, who decided to make the rare move of using blunt, crude language to illustrate his contempt for the decision.

Anchored Oil Tanker Hit by Strike as Iran Begins Targeting Some of World’s Most Critical Oil Infrastructure– www.westernjournal.com

Iran launched vicious attacks Tuesday on oil-producing Arab neighbors, hoping to drive up oil prices to outlast the United States and Israel.

An anchored tanker was struck off the coast of the United Arab Emirates just south of the Strait of Hormuz, according to The New York Times. The tanker sustained minor damage.

The port of Fujairah is strategically important because it is the terminus of a pipeline that can move oil to tankers from inland wells without passing through the strait, which Iran has closed to shipping.

At least 17 ships have been attacked in or near the strait since the U.S. and Israel began fighting Iran in late February.

The UAE was also attacked Tuesday by Iranian missiles and drones. The nation’s defense ministry said the attacks were being repelled.

Iran also launched drones at the UAE’s Shah gas field. Operations were later suspended, according to CNBC.

Potomac Sewage Disaster Shows Cost of ‘Equity’ Over Expertise– legalinsurrection.com

Legal Insurrection has been following news about the massive raw sewage spill caused by the Potomac Interceptor rupture.

This crisis illustrates the predictable consequences of neglected maintenance and questionable spending priorities by DC Water, resulting from political and managerial choices that prioritized image and amenities over core infrastructure, with downstream Maryland communities bearing the public‑health impacts.

We also took a look at DC Water’s 9,900% error in reporting E. coli levels after the spill, which reported 242,000 MPN/100 mL as 2,420 and may have ultimately been the result of the agency’s emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, rather than concentration on mission priorities (e.g., technical competence and accurate, safety‑critical testing procedures and interpretation).

Finally, we have some good news to share regarding this historic spill. DC Water has finally completed the emergency repair and restored flow to the Potomac Interceptor, and is now shifting to long‑term pipe rehabilitation and environmental cleanup.

After nearly two months of emergency repairs, D.C. Water says it has restored flow through the Potomac interceptor, the same pipe that collapsed in January and caused one of the largest sewage spills in U.S. history.

Officials announced the milestone Saturday after crews spent 55 days working around the clock to repair the damaged sewer line along the Potomac River.

The collapse, which happened Jan. 19, caused roughly 250 million gallons of sewage to spill into the Potomac River.

During this latest blackout, people have been spilling out to the streets here for hours. Fortunately, some cloud cover to keep them from this blistering heat.

According to three of them, US President Donald Trump wants to show regional backing for the campaign, to bolster its international legitimacy as well as support at home.

“There is a wide feeling across the Gulf that Iran has crossed every red line with every Gulf country,” said Abdulaziz Sager, chairman of the Saudi-based Gulf Research Center and familiar with government thinking.

“At first we defended them and opposed the war,” he said. “But once they began directing strikes at us, they became an enemy. There is no other way to classify them.”

Tehran has already demonstrated its reach, attacking airports, ports, oil facilities and commercial hubs in the six Gulf states with missiles and drones while also attacking Israel and disrupting shipping through the Strait of Hormuz — the artery carrying about a fifth of global oil and underpinning Gulf economies.

About 11 million people on the island nation of Cuba have lost power after the country’s electrical grid completely collapsed on Monday.

Cuba relies on oil to run the power grid, and a U.S. embargo has worsened the energy crisis it was already suffering under. The U.S. ended oil deliveries to Cuba from Venezuela and threatened other countries with steep tariffs if they provided oil to the nation.

‘Taking Cuba in some form, yeah, taking Cuba. I mean, whether I free it, take it, I think I can do anything I want with it.’

The state-owned power operator said efforts were under way to restore power to the island. In the meantime, energy has been rationed and many services have shut down.

“The impact [of the blockade] is tremendous. It is most brutally manifested in these energy issues,” Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel said on Friday. “This causes anguish among the population.”

Trump Wants to Delay Beijing Summit to Focus on Iran – RedState– redstate.com

President Trump is hitting pause on his highly anticipated summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the end of March and is telling Beijing that it can wait a month as his team focuses on the conflict in Iran and their attempts to disrupt shipping in the crucial waterway of the Strait of Hormuz.

China has been keeping its cards close to the vest as it has warily watched U.S. forces take out most of the senior Iranian leadership in the last 17 days with Operation Epic Fury. Trump, meanwhile, has worked since the beginning of his administration to rebalance the rules of trade between the two powerful countries, as he believes the deck has long been stacked in the People’s Republic’s favor:

The summit was meant to focus on trade, as both Trump and Xi seek to extend a delicate tariff truce between the world’s two biggest economies. But China showed little immediate sign that it was bothered by the likely delay, which analysts told NBC News may actually prove beneficial to efforts to further stabilize relations.

Trump said Monday that his China trip planned for later this month could be postponed because of the war, telling reporters in Washington, “I think it’s important that I be here.” But his administration has not confirmed that the trip is delayed or shared more specific dates for when it would be rescheduled.

Congressional Democrats are referring outgoing Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem to the Justice Department for lying under oath during her oversight hearings before the House and Senate earlier this month.

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the ranking members of their chambers’ respective judiciary committees, asked Attorney General Pam Bondi on Monday to open a perjury investigation into Noem’s “demonstrably false statements” in front of Congress on March 3 and 4.

“A number of her statements appear to violate criminal statutes prohibiting perjury and knowingly making false statements to Congress,” they wrote in a seven-page letter, citing two federal laws to support their request.

“After months of evading our Committees’ requests to testify in routine oversight hearings, Secretary Noem made a series of demonstrably false statements in a brazen attempt to undermine critical congressional oversight of the Department of Homeland Security,” the letter states.

The top Democrats point to Noem’s testimony on whether the Department of Homeland Security complies with court orders as an example of a false statement. They argued DHS has repeatedly defied court orders, but Noem insisted otherwise.

Wyoming bears all the hallmarks of a “red state.” Its executive offices and legislature are dominated by Republicans, and Donald Trump won it by more than 40 points in the last three presidential elections.

But like many “red states” in America today, Wyoming’s Republican rule is in many ways a mirage. So-called “Republican” elected officials have often gone out of their way to stifle and kill conservative priorities.

The state’s recently concluded budget session perfectly illustrates this problem.

Despite Republicans possessing supermajorities in the state House (56-6) and Senate (29-2), the House rejected six bills containing provisions long supported by election integrity activists and the Wyoming Freedom Caucus (WYFC), which holds a governing majority in the chamber. According to local media, these measures would have prohibited the use of ballot drop boxes, restricted ballot harvesting, “required random ballot hand count audits, directed counties to use pen and paper ballots, expanded poll watcher access and raised the bar for independent candidates to appear on the general election ballot.”
