Denver Jews Sound Alarm as Socialist Melat Kiros Rides Anti Israel Wave [WATCH]

Denver’s Jewish community is sounding the alarm after democratic socialist Melat Kiros pulled off a stunning primary win in Colorado’s 1st Congressional District, knocking off longtime Rep. Diana DeGette and sending another loud message about where the activist left is dragging the Democratic Party.

Kiros, 29, was celebrated by progressive groups after defeating the 15 term incumbent in June.

But for Jewish leaders in Denver, the victory did not feel like some charming grassroots moment. It felt like a warning flare.

Their concern centers on Kiros’ record of inflammatory remarks about Israel and the Oct. 7 terror attacks.

She has described those attacks as “inevitable,” accused Israel of genocide and apartheid, and initially refused to call a deadly Boulder firebombing an antisemitic attack.

Rabbi Menachem Lehrfield, director of the Jewish Outreach Initiative in Denver, said the result left many observant Jews feeling exposed in their own city.

After posting online about his fear, he was met with antisemitic comments, then wrote publicly about how simply wearing a yarmulke in Denver now feels dangerous.

One day later, Lehrfield said that fear became painfully real.

“I was walking down the street right here, right outside this building, and somebody rolled down their window and yelled, ‘dirty Jew,’ to me,” he told Fox News Digital.

“I don’t know what’s going to happen next time. I don’t know if next time, instead of hurling vile words, they’ll be hurling an explosive like the person who killed Karen Diamond in Boulder. I don’t know if they’re going to do something to me or my family or my community. There’s a real fear that we’re living with,” he said.

“What I’m most afraid of is the fact that so many of the people in my community, so many people in the district, voted for her,” Lehrfield added.

That is the uncomfortable part Democrats do not want to discuss while their socialist wing keeps getting treated like the future of the party.

The fear is not theoretical in Colorado.

In June 2025, 82 year old Karen Diamond was killed and a dozen others were injured when prosecutors say Mohamed Sabry Soliman threw Molotov cocktails into a peaceful pro Israel gathering on Boulder’s Pearl Street Mall.

Authorities charged Soliman, an illegal immigrant, with murder and hate crimes.

Prosecutors said he yelled “Free Palestine” and spent a year planning the attack to “kill all Zionist people.”

Yet when Kiros was asked about the Boulder attack during a 9News interview, she condemned the violence but would not call it antisemitic, saying she did not “know what was in the heart of the perpetrator.”

That kind of evasive word salad might play well in left wing activist circles, but Jewish leaders in Denver heard it loud and clear.

Brandon Rattiner, senior director of the Jewish Community Relations Council, said Kiros’ answer deeply wounded the community.

“Kiros’s inability to call the Boulder firebombing an antisemitic attack was extremely frustrating and difficult for our community to hear,” he told Fox News Digital.

“The impact here was pretty clear: A Jewish person was killed, over a dozen were hurt, and it was one of the biggest and most prominent antisemitic attacks on Jews throughout the world,” Rattiner said.

He added that the failure to show basic care and empathy was “incredibly hurtful to hear.”

Rattiner said he met with Kiros before the primary and thought the conversation had been constructive.

Then, he said, she appeared on anti Israel streamer Hasan Piker’s livestream and “did the opposite of everything that we had discussed.”

“I had asked for nuance and she spoke in absolutist positions,” Rattiner said.

“I had asked for empathy and compassion, and she seemed to only allow that for one side of the conflict.”

Susan Rona, regional director for the Anti Defamation League Mountain States Region, warned that political rhetoric has real world consequences.

“When political leaders refuse to name something as a targeted antisemitic attack, it creates some distrust of leadership and causes additional fear because it minimizes and causes dehumanization of Jews, which leads to violence,” she said.

“We’re seeing that pretty clearly in Colorado,” Rona continued.

“There’s a direct line to all this antisemitic rhetoric we’re hearing and violence happening toward the Jewish community.”

WATCH:

According to the ADL, antisemitic incidents in Colorado have surged to the third highest level recorded since the group began tracking them in 1979.

The group counted 167 incidents in 2025, a staggering jump from fewer than 12 in the region a decade earlier.

Kiros’ campaign has been backed by the Democratic Socialists of America, Justice Democrats, and the Working Families Party.

The DSA has embraced Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel and has declared Zionism equivalent to racism, which tells voters plenty about the ideological neighborhood we are dealing with here.

A Jewish independent candidate, Dr. Shimon Blau, has now entered the general election race.

He told the Denverite, “I believe in human rights for everyone,” adding, “I am absolutely not a socialist.”

Republican Christy Peterson is also running, though the district remains heavily Democratic.

Still, Kiros’ rise has already exposed a serious rupture inside the left, where anti Israel rhetoric is no longer fringe coffeehouse chatter but an organizing principle for candidates seeking power in Congress.

Kiros, Blau, and the DSA did not return Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.

Funny how the loudest political movements often go quiet when asked to answer for the fear they leave behind.

Gavin Newsom’s Sham Tax Return Release Ignites Fury Over Handpicked Media Access [WATCH]

California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s long-awaited tax return reveal landed with all the transparency of a locked filing cabinet.

After months of pressure, the governor finally let a select group of media outlets inspect hundreds of pages of documents, but only under rules that looked more like damage control than disclosure.

The California Post reported that Newsom allowed favored outlets to review 718 pages of tax records in Sacramento, while forbidding copies and limiting reporters to pen and paper.

The governor, who loves lecturing everyone else about openness, was not there to answer questions.

That private showing came after Newsom had promised to make four years of tax records public.

Instead, the public got a filtered version through outlets that were given special access while others, including The Post, were left outside the room.

The staged release sparked immediate criticism from Republicans who said Newsom was trying to claim the halo of transparency without actually doing the transparent part.

For a governor with national ambitions, that is not exactly a confidence building exercise.

“If the governor is truly committed to transparency, it makes little sense to pick and choose who that transparency extends to,” US Rep. Kevin Kiley, a former state legislator, told The Post.

Scott Meyers, a GOP candidate for Congress in California’s 30th Congressional District, added The Post: “If you want voters to trust you as a steward of their tax dollars, you should welcome that level of scrutiny.”

The records, according to notes taken by the chosen outlets, show Newsom and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, reported hefty annual income while presenting a far more carefully crafted public image.

WATCH:

The couple brought in between 1.7 million dollars and 2 million dollars annually from 2022 through 2024.

The filings also showed the couple paid household staff nearly 200,000 dollars and wrote off Armani clothing that had originally cost about 45,000 dollars.

They later valued the donated clothing at 4,900 dollars when giving it to an Oakland restorative justice nonprofit, according to the Times.

Newsom also reported author income from his recent memoir, “Young Man in a Hurry.”

He collected 70,000 dollars in 2023 and another 75,000 dollars in 2024, not bad for a politician who tries to package himself as the scrappy underdog of California politics.

In 2021, the couple reported 3.5 million dollars in taxable income, boosted by roughly 1 million dollars from the sale of their home in wealthy Marin County.

Newsom’s official governor salary was only a slice of the family’s earnings, with much of the money tied to winery, restaurant and hospitality businesses placed in a blind trust after he took office.

The returns reportedly do not identify which individual businesses produced profits or losses.

That detail matters, especially when the same politician has spent years insisting that public officials should bare their finances for voters to inspect.

The filings also showed Siebel Newsom’s feminist film production company losing money.

Girls Club Entertainment lost about 37,000 dollars in 2022, while she reported just 11,700 dollars in earnings from the business, according to the Times.

At the same time, Siebel Newsom has reportedly collected at least 150,000 dollars per year from her nonprofit, The Representation Project, which promotes her films and related initiatives.

For ordinary Californians crushed by the cost of living, that setup may look a bit different from the glossy moral branding.

Newsom has long sold himself as a champion of financial disclosure.

During his 2018 run for governor, he released years of returns going back to 2011, then signed a 2019 law requiring gubernatorial candidates to disclose five years of federal returns before appearing on California’s primary ballot.

He also promised to keep releasing his own returns each year while in office. Yet until Friday, the public had not received tax records covering the years after 2020.

When The Post asked about the missing returns earlier this month, Newsom sounded surprised.

“I know you love taxes,” the governor joked, before turning to his favorite political security blanket, President Donald Trump.

Newsom insisted he had released his taxes “for decades,” and his office later said the newer filings would be shared by the end of July.

What his office did not say was that certain outlets had already been contacted and allowed to inspect the documents first.

His office tried to wave off the controversy by saying the filings were nothing special.

“They’re unremarkable and entirely consistent with what Californians already know from his annual Form 700 disclosures,” spokesperson Diana Crofts Pelayo previously told The Post.

“The governor publicly released his tax returns while he was on the ballot and is happy to go above and beyond by releasing the remaining years as well.”

The timing only adds to the scrutiny.

Newsom recently disclosed that he and his wife are subjects of a federal investigation, which he claims is politically motivated, while a source previously told The Post that one inquiry is examining Jennifer Siebel Newsom’s taxes.

Federal investigators also separately examined former Newsom chief of staff Dana Williamson, who pleaded guilty in May to conspiracy to commit bank and wire fraud, filing a false tax return and lying to the FBI.

For a governor testing the waters for 2028, this carefully managed tax show may raise more questions than it answers.

Kamala Harris Humiliates Herself While Teasing Radical 2028 Power Grab [WATCH]

Kamala Harris is back on the national stage, and somehow the former vice president managed to remind voters why her last presidential run ended in political rubble.

Speaking Friday at the National Urban League Conference in Nashville, Harris offered a preview of what a 2028 campaign could look like if Democrats decide to take another ride on the Kamala roller coaster.

The theme was not subtle. Harris floated a sweeping leftist wish list that would radically reshape American government, including eliminating the Electoral College, packing the Supreme Court, pushing statehood for Washington DC and Puerto Rico, and scrapping the Senate filibuster.

When asked whether she plans to run for president again, Harris did not formally announce a campaign.

Instead, she gave Democrats a warning about the midterms.

“2028 will not matter if we don’t win 2026,” Harris said.

That line may have been intended as a rallying cry, but it also sounded like a reminder that Democrats know their agenda is in deep trouble if voters show up in 2026.

Harris then leaned into the kind of institutional power grab that has become standard fare on the modern left.

If they cannot win under the current rules, they simply demand new rules.

“We need to revisit the point of expanding the court to 13 justices, like we have 13 district courts. We need to revisit, if they so want, statehood for Puerto Rico and DC,” Harris said.

There was just one glaring problem with that statement.

The United States does not have 13 district courts.

America has 89 federal district courts across the 50 states, along with additional district courts in the territories.

WATCH:

The number Harris appeared to be searching for was 13 appellate circuit courts, which is a fairly significant distinction for someone who is a lawyer and was one heartbeat from the presidency.

For most Americans, mixing up the structure of the federal judiciary might be an understandable mistake.

For Kamala Harris, who wants to redesign the Supreme Court because Democrats are angry they do not control it, the blunder was more than a little embarrassing.

The court packing push is not about justice, balance, or democracy, no matter how many times Democrats dress it up with focus group language.

It is about adding seats until the left gets the rulings it wants.

Harris also revived the Democratic dream of eliminating the Electoral College, a move that would require a constitutional amendment.

That inconvenient detail rarely slows down the party that treats constitutional limits as speed bumps on the road to permanent power.

Add statehood for DC and Puerto Rico to the list, and the strategy becomes even clearer.

Democrats want more friendly senators, more electoral votes, and fewer checks on their agenda.

Harris also attacked Tennessee’s congressional map, accusing the state of racism over its redistricting decision.

“They backdoored racism through politics in that decision,” Harris said.

That kind of rhetoric is now the default setting for Democrats when state lawmakers draw maps they do not like.

If Republicans follow the law and win, the left reaches for the racism accusation before anyone can finish the sentence.

Then Harris made another dramatic claim, accusing the Trump Administration of causing mass death by shuttering USAID.

She offered no proof for the staggering figure she cited.

“It’s so unbelievable that they got rid of USAID! As many as 600,000 to 700,000 people have died because of withdrawing American aid for humanitarian purposes!” Harris said.

WATCH:

A claim that massive should come with serious evidence, not just a conference stage and the familiar Kamala delivery.

But in Democratic politics, big numbers and bigger accusations often do the work that facts apparently cannot.

The Nashville appearance gave voters a useful glimpse of what Harris 2028 could mean.

More attacks on American institutions, more demands to rewrite the rules, more racial politics, and more sweeping claims aimed at blaming Trump for every crisis on earth.

For conservatives, the event was less a campaign preview than a warning label.

Kamala Harris may not have announced for 2028, but she certainly showed the country the radical blueprint Democrats are eager to run on if they get the chance.

Major New Stock Exchange Opens, and It’s Nowhere Near Wall Street [WATCH]

The Texas Stock Exchange officially went live Friday in Dallas, giving America a new major market venue and giving Wall Street another reminder that the center of economic gravity is not glued to Manhattan forever.

The Dallas-based exchange opened trading for all of its listed tickers, marking the first new major stock exchange launch in the United States in decades.

That is no small Texas-sized footnote.

The TXSE is aiming directly at the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Composite, the longtime giants of American listings.

The message from Dallas is simple enough, Texas is open for business, and the old coastal club now has competition.

The exchange is backed by serious financial muscle, including BlackRock, Goldman Sachs and Charles Schwab.

In other words, this is not some courthouse square publicity stunt, no matter how badly the usual coastal skeptics may want to pretend otherwise.

TXSE plans to begin corporate listings later this year, then move into initial public offerings starting in 2027.

The exchange sees Texas and the broader South as the “center of gravity for American capitalism”, a phrase that sounds less like marketing and more like a plain reading of the map.

The exchange is leaning into what it calls the “Boom Belt”, a fast growing region that has been pulling jobs, capital and people away from states where taxes and regulations seem designed by people allergic to prosperity.

“As the only primary corporate and ETP listings venue built and headquartered in the Boom Belt, TXSE is both a product of the region’s rise and a catalyst to accelerate it,” TXSE explained.

The numbers help explain why Dallas is suddenly looking like more than just a challenger.

According to the exchange, the region has an annualized GDP of $8.9 trillion, larger than every world economy except the United States and China.

WATCH:

The TXSE also says 40 percent of American exports move through the Boom Belt, while 57 percent of United States job growth over the last five years has happened there.

That is the sort of statistic that tends to make California tax planners reach for another committee hearing.

For now, the exchange is operating out of temporary offices in the Uptown neighborhood of Dallas.

A bell ringing ceremony was scheduled for Friday afternoon to mark the official launch, because even Texas knows Wall Street does not own all the theater.

The permanent home will be inside the Bank of America Tower, where TXSE plans to operate the Texas Market Center.

Once completed, the tower is expected to be the tallest building in Uptown Dallas.

The Texas Market Center is set to include executive offices, a Texas business museum and a broadcast studio.

Designer KPF said in May that the exchange will occupy multiple areas of the building, including ground floor space and a 12th floor sky lobby.

The launch comes as Texas keeps attracting companies looking for a better place to locate headquarters or incorporate.

Lower taxes, friendlier rules and a more practical political climate have become a powerful sales pitch, especially compared with California and New York.

The old guard has noticed. The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq have both opened exchanges in Texas, offering companies the chance to dual list on the new duplicate venues at no cost.

That reaction tells the real story.

When the giants start planting flags in Texas, it is because they know the money, talent and ambition are moving.

Wall Street is not vanishing tomorrow, but its monopoly on prestige is taking a hit.

Y’all Street is no longer a punchline, it is a live market in Dallas with heavyweight backing and a very Texas sized appetite for growth.

Fauci Confronted Outside His D.C. Home, Watch Him ‘Social Distance’ with a Quickness [WATCH]

Anthony Fauci apparently has discovered a brand new public health protocol, sprint away when a reporter asks basic questions.

The former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director was caught on camera outside his home after his recent appearance before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, where he reportedly invoked the Fifth Amendment more than one hundred times.

Fox News Digital correspondent Nicholas Ballasy tried to ask Fauci whether he had any regrets about his COVID decisions and whether he had anything to say about refusing to answer lawmakers under oath.

Fauci did not exactly launch into one of those polished television sermons Americans endured for years.

Instead, he made a quick retreat, reminding the country that the man who once seemed addicted to cameras suddenly cannot find the courage to face one.

WATCH:

That is quite a transformation for the same bureaucrat who spent the pandemic lecturing families, churches, schools, businesses, and anyone else within microphone range about what they were allowed to do.

For years, Fauci occupied the national stage like a celebrity with a lab coat, popping up on friendly media outlets to explain why ordinary Americans needed to obey.

WATCH:

Now that the questions are less flattering, the performance has changed.

He once fancied himself “tHe sCIeNcE.” That branding always looked more like Washington ego than scientific humility, and the country is still paying the price.

The point of “The Science,” at least before the pandemic priesthood got hold of it, was supposed to be chasing truth and testing claims.

It was not supposed to mean hiding behind lawyers, dodging lawmakers, and rushing indoors when a reporter asks about regrets.

Normally, staking out someone at home is not the kind of press tactic conservatives should celebrate without hesitation.

But Fauci is not some private citizen who wandered into a controversy by accident.

He was one of the most powerful public health figures in America during one of the most disruptive periods in modern history.

WATCH:

He helped shape policies that touched nearly every home, school, church, workplace, and hospital in the country.

Millions of Americans were told to mask up, shut down, stay home, miss funerals, skip holidays, lose jobs, take shots, and stop asking impertinent questions.

WATCH:

Fauci was there, often with that familiar tone suggesting disagreement was not merely wrong, but almost immoral.

So yes, when a reporter asks him whether he has regrets, the public has every right to hear an answer.

If he can help justify sweeping restrictions on normal life, he can manage a few sentences on a sidewalk.

The scene became even more curious because Fauci appeared to be speaking with law enforcement near a Metropolitan Police D.C. SUV.

That raises a fair question about whether he is receiving official protection, and if so, who is footing the bill.

Fauci has done rather well for himself in public life and in the fame machine that followed.

If he wants private security, he can surely find a way to cover it without leaning on the same public he seems so eager to avoid.

The episode followed his Senate “testimony” this week, where reports indicate he was not exactly pleased with how things went.

RedState’s Nick Arama noted that Fauci was overheard complaining about being “shouted at” during the hearing.

That tells you plenty about the bubble these people inhabit.

After years of ordinary citizens being scolded, censored, shamed, and smeared, Fauci seems wounded that lawmakers raised their voices while pressing him for answers.

Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul was not moved by the display.

His message to Fauci was simple, ” Walk it off .”

Paul has also scheduled a contempt vote before the committee next week, which could put Fauci back in a seat he plainly would rather avoid.

WATCH:

That is where this belongs, not buried under media nostalgia for pandemic celebrities.

There is also renewed scrutiny from Robert F Kennedy Jr and others over what Fauci knew, what he said publicly, and what was kept from the American people.

One related charge summed up the frustration with the phrase ‘He Never Told Anybody’.

WATCH:

The American people do not need another sanctimonious lecture from the man who became the face of pandemic control.

They need answers about decisions that upended lives, damaged trust, and handed enormous power to unelected experts.

Fauci can run back inside, but he cannot run from the record forever.

The country remembers the lectures, the mandates, the smug media tours, and now the sudden silence when accountability comes knocking.

Chris Cuomo Explodes on Camera Defending Fauci After Capitol Hill Firestorm [WATCH]

Chris Cuomo is once again putting on a clinic in cable news theatrics, this time over criticism aimed at Dr. Anthony Fauci after a heated Capitol Hill hearing put the former pandemic czar back under the microscope.

Cuomo, who has never been shy about lecturing the public when cameras are rolling, appeared visibly agitated as he defended Fauci and blasted Republicans for daring to question the man who became the face of America’s COVID response.

The problem, of course, is that millions of Americans have very real questions about Fauci’s record, his public statements, his shifting guidance, and the heavy hand of pandemic policy that crushed families, churches, schools, and small businesses.

Rather than engage those concerns directly, Cuomo went straight for emotional outrage, as if volume and profanity could somehow erase the memory of what the country lived through.

“I don’t know who needs to hear this but if you were forced by a situation where people were coming after you to plead the 5th and everything that comes with that, what would you be doing right now? I would be in the fetal position, or hiding. Tony Fauci is seeing patients. Why? Because he’s a real one. And because what they’re doing going after him, is bullsh*t and everybody knows it,” Cuomo said in a video where he was clearly upset and emotional.

That was not a policy argument. That was a televised therapy session with studio lighting.

Cuomo’s defense centered on portraying Fauci as a noble elderly physician under siege, rather than a powerful federal figure whose words carried enormous consequences for the American people.

For years, Fauci was treated by the corporate press as untouchable, a kind of lab coat saint whose guidance was above question, even when that guidance changed, contradicted prior claims, or conveniently lined up with the political needs of the moment.

Cuomo then reached for the familiar strawman, pretending critics are accusing Fauci of personally creating COVID rather than challenging his conduct, his testimony, his influence, and the bureaucratic empire that helped drive lockdown culture.

“You want to find out who started Covid? That’s great, are you saying Tony Fauci did? Are you saying America did? Then what are we talking about. If you didn’t like masks, if you didn’t like mandates, then go after admins that were okay with it. Tony Fauci was foisted into a position because they didn’t want to take the smoke. Trump did it first and then the Biden administration. But you’re just going after one 80 year old man. This is not about the truth, its about bullsh*t and everybody sees it. And the American people still side with what they know is reasonable and not just this bullsh*t. It’s disgraceful whats happening.”

WATCH:

There it is, the old media maneuver.

If the public asks why children were masked, why schools were closed, why dissenting scientists were smeared, or why federal health officials kept changing the story, the answer is apparently to accuse them of picking on an old man.

That may play well in green rooms, but out in the real country, people remember what happened.

Parents remember kids falling behind, workers remember mandates threatening their jobs, and business owners remember watching government officials decide who was essential and who was expendable.

Cuomo wants Americans to aim their frustration only at administrations, not Fauci, even though Fauci was one of the most visible and influential voices during the entire pandemic period.

That is a neat little escape hatch for the expert class, but regular voters are not required to climb through it.

The media spent years demanding that Americans trust the experts, then seemed shocked when citizens wanted those experts questioned under oath.

WATCH:

Accountability is not persecution, no matter how many times Cuomo drops profanity into a camera lens.

The fury from Cuomo also says something larger about the political class and its media defenders.

They still cannot tolerate the idea that the American people have a right to revisit the pandemic years and demand answers from the officials who helped shape them.

Fauci can see patients, give interviews, and defend his record all he wants.

But none of that means Congress, voters, or critics should quietly move along because a news anchor got emotional on video.

If Cuomo thinks cursing enough times makes his point stronger, he may want to try a new strategy.

The public has already heard plenty of scolding from the COVID era elites, and many Americans are in no mood to be lectured again by the same crowd that told them questioning authority was dangerous.

Terrifying Video Shows Rogue Tire Obliterating Car on Philadelphia Highway [WATCH]

A wild and frightening scene unfolded on Philadelphia’s I-76 this week when a loose tire came barreling down the highway and slammed directly into a moving vehicle.

The whole thing was captured by a Tesla camera, giving drivers yet another reminder that danger on the road can appear out of nowhere, even in broad daylight.

The video shows the tire bouncing along the highway median before it suddenly veers into traffic and strikes a Nissan SUV traveling in the left lane.

The impact was violent, immediate, and shocking, crushing the front end of the vehicle and smashing the windshield as traffic continued moving around it.

The tire did not simply drop to the pavement after the collision.

Instead, the force of the crash launched it straight into the air, creating the kind of scene most drivers would expect from an action movie rather than a normal afternoon commute.

The incident happened just after noon near Girard Avenue in West Philadelphia, according to the report.

That is a busy stretch of highway where motorists already have enough to deal with between heavy traffic, aggressive driving, and the usual big city road chaos.

Authorities have not yet made clear where the tire came from.

That unanswered question matters, because a runaway tire does not magically appear on a major highway without something going very wrong somewhere.

It is also unknown whether anyone was injured in the wreck.

Given the condition of the Nissan’s hood and windshield after the impact, it is easy to see how this could have ended in tragedy.

The Tesla driver reportedly heard the crash but did not realize what had happened until reviewing the footage later.

That detail says plenty about how fast the incident unfolded, since even a nearby driver could not immediately make sense of the sudden violence on the roadway.

WATCH:

For the driver of the Nissan, there was no warning and no time to react.

One second the SUV was moving with traffic, and the next it was taking a direct hit from a tire that had become a flying weapon.

Scenes like this raise obvious questions about vehicle maintenance, commercial traffic, roadway safety, and basic accountability.

Someone’s wheel or tire assembly likely failed, and everyone else on the highway was forced to gamble with the consequences.

The footage also shows why cameras in vehicles have become so important.

Without video, this might have sounded like an exaggerated highway story, but the clip leaves no room for doubt about the severity of the crash.

Philadelphia drivers are no strangers to rough roads and unpredictable traffic, but this incident stands out even by big city standards.

A loose tire flying across lanes at highway speed is not a minor inconvenience, it is a deadly hazard.

Officials have not released additional details about possible citations, an investigation, or whether the source vehicle has been identified.

The public deserves answers, especially if the tire came from a vehicle that should not have been on the road in that condition.

Too often, dangerous incidents are treated like random accidents and quickly forgotten once traffic starts moving again.

But when a tire tears through a windshield on a major highway, that is not just bad luck, it is a warning sign.

Drivers already pay taxes, tolls, fees, insurance premiums, and every other charge the system can dream up.

At the very least, they should be able to expect that basic safety rules are enforced and that obvious hazards are taken seriously.

The video is disturbing because it captures how thin the line can be between an ordinary drive and a life changing disaster.

No dramatic build up, no time to prepare, just a tire bouncing out of nowhere and a car taking the full force of the impact.

For now, the origin of the tire remains unclear, and the condition of anyone involved has not been publicly confirmed.

What is clear is that the footage has struck a nerve because every driver understands exactly how helpless that Nissan driver must have been in that moment.

The clip is a brutal reminder that the road can turn dangerous in an instant.

And in a city where public safety already feels like an afterthought far too often, this runaway tire delivered one more reason for motorists to keep their eyes open and their heads on a swivel.

Cuomo, Fauci, and the COVID Clowns: How the Left’s Media Turned Lies Into Lockdowns [WATCH]

Newsmax host Carl Higbie criticized the national media’s coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic, arguing that major news organizations prioritized political narratives over facts and helped elevate public officials whose guidance has since come under renewed scrutiny.

Higbie also pointed to remarks from Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.), who reflected on how partisanship influenced his own views during the pandemic.

Higbie began by questioning why many media organizations continue to retain public trust.

“Why does the media have any credibility at all today?” Higbie asked.

He said he believes viewers who continue watching certain outlets are motivated more by politics than facts.

“My only conclusion, again, I’m going on data here, is that people watching them, the few that are still watching them, they don’t actually care about facts or anything that might make any sense.”

Instead, Higbie argued, “They just want to see things that make Trump look bad.”

According to Higbie, that approach is inconsistent with journalism.

“That’s not journalism. That’s actually a cult.”

He added, “Congratulations, Libs, but I was right and they were wrong.”

Higbie acknowledged that television ratings have declined for several networks but questioned why any audience remains.

“A lot of people are turning them off. The ratings have cratered on a lot of these left-leaning networks.”

He continued, “However, how did they retain any viewers at all at this point?”

Higbie argued that media organizations embraced sensationalism during the pandemic.

“You see these networks; they cut their teeth in the mantra that if it bleeds, it leads.”

He said that once COVID-19 emerged, networks focused on the most alarming aspects of the pandemic.

“So when COVID happened, they found the most sensationalized aspects of Covid, which were in part coming from Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx and all these other nut jobs and proponents of lockdowns.”

According to Higbie, those reports were used to damage President Donald Trump politically.

“And they sensationalized it like this: CNN, pow, death count for the first months when it was on screen.”

He added, “How many people were dying when Trump was in office? And then the second Biden got in, boom! They turned that thing right off.”

Higbie also claimed reported death figures were later overstated.

“And we now know that they overinflated those numbers.”

He continued, “Even Deborah Birx was like, ‘Oh yeah, we had to like lock her up too.'”

Higbie argued that the media elevated Fauci’s public profile throughout the pandemic.

“They placated Fauci’s ego too, putting Anthony Fauci on the cover of any magazine they could get their hands on, giving him more credibility.”

He also criticized messaging directed toward parents.

“They convinced millions of people that oh, your children will die if you go to school, even though we had the data at the time and they ignored it.”

According to Higbie, “Children were almost not even susceptible to COVID in any serious matter at all.”

He also argued that health officials ignored obesity as a significant risk factor.

“We knew being fat was a massive risk factor, and yet anybody who said anything about that, oh, you’re fat phobic and you can’t do that and you’re discriminated against.”

Higbie added, “No, I’m just trying to make people not die. Get on a treadmill.”

He also criticized media coverage surrounding podcast host Joe Rogan.

“They changed Joe Rogan’s skin color through a filter on CNN to make it look like he was sick when he was talking about ivermectin working.”

Higbie argued that media organizations also promoted vaccine messaging through public campaigns.

“They got kids and even adults to sing just the craziest videos about the vaccine.”

He continued with another example.

“A bunch of high octane, high octave men social distancing to a point of basically neutering themselves, singing in a parking lot with pride flags.”

Higbie said those campaigns had the opposite effect on him.

“That made me want to get the vaccine even less because I didn’t want to end up like those people.”

He also criticized the media’s treatment of former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

“The media was so interested in rushing to make people that they approved of into heroes that they never stopped to think that maybe those people might have been wrong.”

Higbie continued, “A perfect example is Andrew Cuomo as governor.”

“He was the next coming of Christ, according to the liberal media.”

According to Higbie, “Headline after headline” portrayed Cuomo as “a rising star.”

He argued that later developments contradicted that image.

“Then it turns out he was actually a horrible person and wrong about all of it, and his policies ended up getting a bunch of old people killed that he rammed into old folks’ homes.”

Higbie also criticized former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s vaccine promotion efforts.

“Bill DeBlasio offered free French fries for vaccines. I mean, what a nerd!”

Turning to Sen. John Fetterman, Higbie said even Democrats have begun acknowledging mistakes made during the pandemic.

“And even rational Democrats like John Fetterman regret that he even believed the narrative.”

Fetterman reflected on how partisanship influenced his thinking.

“I think that the next time our nation’s facing something like this, we are not become, you know, as I might have been, blinded by the partisan idea that maybe the truth might come from a side that’s different than than you are.”

Higbie concluded by arguing that many media organizations have refused to acknowledge errors in their pandemic coverage.

“And the guy recovering from a stroke becomes more rational than the rest of his entire party.”

He added, “But the media today still can’t admit that they were wrong.”

“They know they were wrong, which is why they omitted the coverage of it yesterday.”

Higbie concluded by saying, “They were so self-absorbed that, despite all the facts now, they still believe that they can just say whatever they want, and that somehow we at home aren’t laughing at them.”

This Woman Just Destroyed the “Democratic Socialist” Myth in Under Three Minutes [WATCH]

Political commentator Nick Shirley spoke with activist Chloe Cole about the growing visibility of socialist and communist ideas in American politics, with Cole arguing that those ideologies continue to attract support despite what she described as repeated historical failures.

Shirley opened the conversation by asking Cole for her thoughts on communism.

“Is on the rise, and what do you think about communism?” he asked.

Cole said she believes the ideology appeals to many people because of its simple promises.

“I think communism sells. It’s such a simple idea and message.”

She argued that although the concept is attractive on the surface, history has shown it does not succeed in practice.

“It obviously doesn’t work at all, but it’s something that you could so easily say to a young, naive college person or young person in general.”

Cole said supporters often promote policies by emphasizing free benefits.

“You can say everything should be free, and healthcare should be free, and universal, and education should be free, but people don’t really understand the ramifications behind that statement.”

According to Cole, these arguments are not new.

“So I mean, this is nothing new. People have been trying to sell the idea of socialism and communism for years and years and years.”

She pointed to political movements in Russia before the Soviet Union as an example.

“I mean, obviously, in pre-Soviet Russia, you had communism.”

Cole discussed the differences between the Mensheviks and Bolsheviks, comparing them to factions within modern American politics.

“That’s where a lot of it started. You had the Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks, and the Mensheviks were kind of like your mainstream, run-of-the-mill Democrat, and then you had the Bolsheviks.”

She continued, “This was way back in like the 1800s, 1900s, and the Bolsheviks came in.”

Cole compared the Bolsheviks to what she described as today’s Democratic Socialists of America activists.

“They were kind of like the DSA activists of today.”

According to Cole, the Bolsheviks distinguished themselves by promising more expansive government benefits.

“They said, ‘Well, the Mensheviks and the Democrats aren’t being radical enough, and they aren’t promising you all the things that we’re promising you. We can give you free education and universal health care and all of these great things,’ and then they never deliver.”

Cole argued that the same pattern continues today.

“So that happened back in the day. It’s just like a recurring ideology.”

She added, “History is a big fat circle, and it’s happening again because it’s such an easy thing to sell.”

Cole pointed to several countries as evidence that communism has repeatedly failed.

“But it’s never worked.”

She continued, “Didn’t work in Russia or the Soviet Union or China or Venezuela.”

“Communism never works, but it’s such an easy idea to try to convince people to vote others in with.”

Cole concluded that understanding history is critical to preventing similar outcomes.

“So I hope that people read because those who know history do not repeat it.”

She added, “So we just have to teach kids why it doesn’t work.”

Shirley then asked Cole about the Democratic Socialists of America and what membership in the organization represents.

“What does it mean to be a part of a DSA and be a Democrat socialist? What’s that actually mean?”

Cole described the organization as distinct from traditional Democrats.

“So DSA is the Democratic Socialist of America, and it’s very, very scary.”

She argued that the group advances its goals through the Democratic Party.

“And the Democratic Socialists of America-they are using the Democratic wing of politics to Trojan horse all of their ideas through.”

Cole emphasized that she believes the organization differs substantially from mainstream Democratic politics.

“But they’re very different than mainstream Democrats.”

According to Cole, the group’s ultimate objective is much broader than ordinary policy disagreements.

“What these Democratic Socialists of America want to do is usher in communism and destroy America from within.”

She said she believes those views are openly expressed by some supporters.

“And I’m not being dramatic when I say that because there are many DSA members who are online all over X.”

Cole continued, “You can look it up, saying we want to take down the American Empire from within. We want to destroy Western civilization.”

She argued that the organization seeks to dismantle longstanding American institutions.

“They’re vastly they’re vastly different from the left.”

“They want to destroy all of the institutions that we hold near and dear here in America.”

Cole concluded by comparing those goals to the historical Bolshevik movement.

“They basically want to root out everything that our founders worked so hard to build and start again, just like the Bolsheviks did way back in the day.”

Her final warning was brief.

“Repeating cycles.”

Trump’s FBI Just Hit Global Scammers Where It Hurts Most, Patel Says [WATCH]

FBI Director Kash Patel outlined the bureau’s recent efforts to combat violent crime and international fraud, pointing to large-scale operations targeting criminal organizations that he said have stolen billions of dollars from Americans while trafficking thousands of victims.

Patel credited President Donald Trump’s administration with providing the resources and support needed to expand law enforcement operations both domestically and overseas.

“We’re attacking criminals everywhere,” Patel said.

He argued that recent crime statistics reflect the bureau’s enforcement efforts.

“When you have 1.1 million fewer violent incidences in one year, that’s because this FBI has arrested twice as many violent offenders around the world in that same time period.”

Patel attributed those results to leadership from the White House.

“It’s not an accident, Sean. It’s President Trump’s leadership in law enforcement and resourcing us and protecting our elderly and protecting our kids and making sure their life savings and college tuitions don’t get wiped out by these criminal syndicates from around the world.”

According to Patel, the FBI’s international partners have played a significant role in those efforts.

“Our partners around the world are in on it with us,” he said. “They’re fighting with us because they’re being deprived and defrauded as well.”

He noted that dozens of countries joined the bureau’s latest initiative.

“That’s why our partners in Southeast Asia showed up. Twenty-four nations showed up, 400 law enforcement officers showed up.”

Patel said the operation was coordinated through the FBI’s Operation Blackout initiative.

“This is the FBI leading through Operation Blackout the mission to annihilate global scam compounds.”

He added, “We’re going to do it, and we’re going to keep doing it, and we’re going to keep reaching out to Americans.”

Patel later expanded on Operation Blackout, describing it as a coordinated international effort to dismantle large criminal organizations engaged in financial fraud.

“How we’re going to get after the scam compound frauds that are depriving Americans of billions and billions of dollars?”

He said the FBI worked alongside international partners throughout Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

“So the FBI launched Operation Blackout, which we conducted with our partners across the world, including in Southeast Asia and the Middle East.”

According to Patel, the operation dismantled several major scam centers.

“We took down four of the largest scam compounds in the world, and we freed 1000s of traffic workers.”

He also highlighted the financial impact of the operation.

“Sean, we seized over 15 billion dollars worth of fraud that was being deprived and stolen from American citizens, and we annihilated these compounds.”

Patel said the long-term objective extends beyond individual arrests.

“The main goal is to disrupt, dismantle, and then fully annihilate them with our partners in Southeast Asia, like the Cambodians, the Thais, and the Indians.”

He described the involvement of Thailand’s national police force during one of the operations.

“And we had the Royal Thai police go in there and literally scuttle a compound.”

Patel said law enforcement also relied on private-sector technology partners to disrupt the criminal organizations’ communications infrastructure.

“We also use technology with our private sector to suffocate the lifeline of these compounds and shut off 8,000 internet terminals.”

He explained that many of the scam operations occupied large compounds rather than traditional office settings.

“These are villages; they’re not buildings and offices and a guy behind a desk.”

Because of their size and international reach, Patel said dismantling them requires cooperation among multiple governments.

“It requires a global effort, and that’s what we did.”

Patel also announced the completion of what he described as the first Scam Center Summit involving international partners.

“And just last week, we completed this first ever Scam Center summit with our partners in Southeast Asia.”

Beyond enforcement operations, Patel highlighted a separate FBI initiative designed to prevent Americans from becoming fraud victims before money is lost.

“And on top of that, we’re proactive with Operation Level Up.”

According to Patel, FBI personnel have directly contacted thousands of Americans believed to be targeted by scammers.

“We have literally had 10,000 Americans saved.”

He said those outreach efforts prevented significant financial losses.

“We saved their life savings and literally their lives because we proactively went to them and said, ‘We think you’re being scammed.'”

Patel added that those individuals responded to the warnings, allowing authorities to prevent additional losses.

“They responded, and we saved over half a billion dollars worth of life savings from being defrauded by Americans.”

Concluding his remarks, Patel again credited President Trump for emphasizing fraud prevention as a national priority.

“President Trump’s leading out of the fight on fraud all over the place.”
