Stat Crux dum volvitur orbis. (The Cross is steady while the world is turning.)

[Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf]

Mariam Odeh, a former staffer on Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign, is currently facing federal charges alongside 11 other anti-Israel activists accused of vandalizing the homes of members of Michigan’s Jewish and pro-Israel community and plotting to poison and murder them and their families.

Jars containing noxious chemicals were thrown into family homes. Windows were smashed. Homes were marked with the Hamas red inverted triangle, designating them as targets for death.

One of the accused allegedly threatened to slowly poison a victim once he became a doctor.

This would never happen, but imagine if a Jewish staffer for a Jewish candidate targeted Muslims like this. There would be national outrage and we wouldn’t hear the end of it. It would be the end of their campaign and career.

Unfortunately, the extreme violence and terrorism of the pro-Palestinian movement and the threat of Islam have been completely normalized in America.

@KirkMMaxey @XVanFleet Instead of ceding battlegrounds to these parasites, how about we take back education, health care, law and justice, government, and all other ideologically captured entities?

Ongelofelijke scènes in Amsterdam.

Man valt koppel aan en probeert hun hond neer te steken. De vrouw reageert met een fenomenale tackle en werkt hem keihard tegen de grond.

Wat een heldin. Respect. 🔥

ความวุ่นวายในร้านแซนด์วิชในฝรั่งเศส

สาวคนหนึ่งไปขออะไรที่ฮาลาล แล้วบ่นเรื่องการมีแซนด์วิชแฮมแล้วเริ่มทำตัววุ่นวาย เจ้าของร้านเบเกอรี่เตือนเธอว่าเธออยู่ในร้านเบเกอรี่ฝรั่งเศส อีกฝ่ายยังคงแสดงละครต่อไป เรียกเจ้าของร้านว่า

"ไอ้ตัวสกปรก"

เจ้าของร้านตอบกลับว่า
“ถ้าเธอไม่ชอบร้านเบเกอรี่ที่ไม่มีแซนด์วิชฮาลาล เธอสามารถกลับบ้านตัวเองได้ ”

อีกฝ่ายยังคงด่าทอ ข่มขู่ บอกว่า

"คุณเหยียดเชื้อชาติ"

และตอนนั้นเอง เจ้าของร้านที่เบื่อหน่ายสุดขีดก็ตอบว่า

"ใช่แล้ว ฉันเหยียดเชื้อชาติและฉันภูมิใจที��เป็นแบบนั้น"

ความจริงคือ เจ้าของร้านเบเกอรี่ในตอนแรกไม่ได้สนใจที่มาของลูกค้าคนนั้นเลยสักนิด จนกระทั่งลูกค้าคนนั้นทำให้เธอถึงขีดสุด
เรารู้ดีจนแทบจะท่องได้ทั้งหมดสำหรับฉากแบบนี้ ที่เริ่มจากข่มขู่ ความก้าวร้าว การขู่อาฆาต แล้วจบด้วยการกลายเป็นเหยื่อ

I lived in Stockholm. I lived in the house of a Holocaust survivor. Six years a prisoner in three different extermination camps. Sweden was a safe haven for many survivors, not everything went well, but it was a home for those who lost everything.

It is with sadness and outrage that I see posters in the shop windows of Stockholm as if we were in the 1930s in Nazi Germany.

Muslims say they hate Halloween because it’s haram and against their religion, but they have no problem stealing Halloween candy from children who actually celebrate it.

The most contradictory religion ever.

You asked 👇

HOW DID TUSK GET BACK IN?

Poland has a President as well as a Prime Minister. The President is head of state, the Prime Minister runs the government day to day.

Tusk was President of the European Council in Brussels - one of the top jobs in the EU. Big salary, big prestige. He came back to Poland in 2021 to take over his old party, Civic Platform.

In October 2023 there was the general election. PiS - Law and Justice - actually got the most votes as a single party, but not a majority. Tusk put together a coalition of three - his Civic Coalition, plus Third Way, plus the Left.

Between them they had just enough seats to take power. So President Duda had to give Tusk the chance to form a government, and he became Prime Minister again in December 2023.

How did he win?

He didn't win the conservative, working class, rural Poland. He won the big cities - Warsaw, Gdansk, Wroclaw - and he aimed his campaign at white liberal middle class women and young graduates who want to be seen as European, not Polish.

Poland has secure borders. They have no mass no experience of the difficulties that are ahead .

No immigration from Somalia, Afghanistan, places like that. Most people there have never lived with what we have lived with in England. So it's easy to vote liberal when you don't have to live with the consequences.

Why would he leave a cushy EU job in Brussels to go back?

Because Brussels needed him back in Warsaw. PiS were blocking EU federalism. They wanted to keep the Zloty, keep their gold, keep their borders, keep their own courts. They were a problem for Germany and Brussels.

Tusk is their man in Warsaw. Put him back in to take over the courts, take over the Tribunal, open the borders, and get Poland into the Euro.

That's why he came back. Not for Poland - for Brussels.
@D_Tarczynski have I got this about right ?

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

For those confused as to what’s happening in Poland right now…

Imagine if Democrats won Congress, declared the Supreme Court didn't count anymore, ignored its rulings for 3 years, and then, a year before the next election, picked 8 new justices of their own, including a man their leader called his "right-hand man," and when the Republican president refused to swear them in, they swore themselves in and mailed him the paperwork, and when the Chief Justice said that wasn't legal and wouldn't seat them, they waited for a Friday night when the president was on a plane to Africa and had federal security officers who answer to a Democratic cabinet member walk 7 of them into the court through a back gate connected to the Democratic leader's own offices, where one of them announced she had "suspended" the Chief Justice, a move that even a law professor who openly can't stand him said had no legal basis, and then riot police blocked the Chief Justice from entering his own court, the court's website was taken over, the Attorney General moved that same night to strip his immunity so he could be prosecuted, the president had to turn his plane around mid-flight to come home, and the same people who spent years lecturing everyone about respecting the courts went online to say this was the rule of law, that it was painful, and that there was "no other way," which is roughly where Poland is tonight.

Black American woman in NYC is being denied use of a public sidewalk because groups of African Muslim men have effectively claimed it as an open-air prayer space.

She pays taxes to fund her own city’s streets and infrastructure, yet foreign invaders are blocking her from using them.

This is what happens when you keep voting for Democrats!

An Abdul El-Sayed supporter openly called Michigan voters “stupid” and said that the key to winning is hiding the truth.

Abdul El-Sayed and Hasan Piker nodded along in agreement.

“The encouraging thing is that people are stupid.”

The Met police are protecting the Nazi thugs, just like they did during Sir Oswald Mosely's infamous gatherings.

[Harman Singh Kapoor @kingkapoor72]

Tonight, my family and I experienced something no family should ever have to go through.

Our restaurant, Singh’s Dining Restaurant in Hammersmith, was attacked by a group of Islamists.
We had been receiving death threats every single day, including one that specifically warned us that 28 October would be our last day.

We raised our concerns, and the @metpoliceuk were aware of the threats. Yet tonight, we found ourselves facing the very nightmare we had feared.

My daughter had to close the shutters just in time. I cannot even begin to imagine what might have happened if she hadn’t acted so quickly. We could have lost someone in our family tonight.
The attackers reportedly tried for a long time to break through the shutters to get inside, leaving shortly before the police arrived.

We have serious concerns about how the attackers knew when to leave, and whether they were alerted before the police arrived. These concerns deserve a thorough and transparent investigation.
Tonight, I am left facing a heartbreaking decision, Do we keep our doors open and risk our lives, or do we shut down the business we have worked so hard to build because I don’t serve Halal food.

No family should ever have to choose between their livelihood and their safety. No one should have to live in fear in their own place of work.

I am angry. I am heartbroken. I am frightened for my family’s safety.
I am calling on the @metpoliceuk to take these threats seriously, investigate tonight’s attack thoroughly, and ensure that my family is protected.
Please share this post. Let our voices be heard. We should not have to wait for someone to lose their life before our safety is taken seriously.
Enough IS Enough.

Tomorrow, I have an appointment with the Cleveland Clinic's Detrans Clinic. It took a while to set up an appointment, but it seems like their phone situation is set up now, and they are able to receive patient intakes now.

I will let you all know how it goes. I am hoping for ethical care and a rational practitioner who doesn't try to "affirm my gender." I need help with iatrogenic harm.

I was asked my pronouns during the intake, which was jarring, to say the least, especially because I had just confirmed that I was female. It seemed like the intake person was reading off of a script when asking that.

I will see how things go and let the doctor know what I need help with and hopefully I can get help and recommend help for others.

Detransitioners need and deserve ethical care.

For those of you who thought the visit from a Bedford Borough Council official to investigate our daughter Zoe’s (age 12) pretend teddy bear cafe was too ridiculous to be real, here is the arrival of official. This is totally legit. She really did show up at our property to investigate the illegal teddy bears having their coffee🧸🧸☕️☕️

100% agreement. I have a pork allergy, yet would never expect any culture to remove something important to them, simply to accommodate me. I have the choice to not eat pork, same as Muslims do.

[NyanChuu��🇯🇵🍭 @tanpukunokami]

Kitakyushu, Japan, rejected a petition to remove pork and pork extract from school lunches for Muslim students.

I hope more cities across Japan follow suit.

Japanese school lunches should not have to change to accommodate every religious restriction. Don’t you agree?
