Indiana RINO Toppled as Trump Backed Challenger Wins Recount by Three Votes [WATCH]

/

Indiana State Senate incumbent Spencer Deery has lost his Republican primary after a recount handed victory to Paula Copenhaver by only three votes, as reported by Townhall.

The stunning reversal removed a Republican whom conservatives branded a RINO and delivered another win for President Donald Trump.

Copenhaver entered the recount facing an extraordinarily narrow margin following the May 5 primary.

With the race balanced on a handful of ballots, she requested a formal review rather than accepting what initially appeared to be a painful defeat.

That decision paid off. Election officials rejected eight ballots that had originally been counted for Deery, reducing his final total to 6,329 votes and giving Copenhaver the slender advantage she needed.

The result marks a dramatic change from the initial assumption that Deery had barely survived the challenge.

Instead, the incumbent now finds himself on the losing side of a contest decided by fewer votes than many families have seated around the dinner table.

Copenhaver had the backing of Trump, whose endorsement remains a powerful force in Republican primary contests.

For grassroots conservatives, the outcome also served as another warning to GOP lawmakers who believe they can defy the party base without facing consequences.

Deery was among several Indiana state senators who opposed Trump’s effort to redraw the state congressional map before the contentious midterm elections.

That resistance put him directly in the path of a president determined to reshape the Indiana Legislature.

Trump responded by endorsing primary challengers against Republicans who refused to support the redistricting push.

The resulting campaign produced a major political shake-up and placed establishment incumbents on notice that comfortable seats are not guaranteed forever.

The recount supplied the final twist in Deery’s race.

Eight rejected ballots were enough to turn his presumed escape into a three-vote loss, proving once again that every legitimate ballot matters when an election reaches the recount room.

Deery is not conceding quietly. He accused election officials of working to “undermine the will of voters by treating ballots differently based on whether they furthered the president’s political goals.”

That is a serious allegation, but the certified result currently favors Copenhaver.

Deery says he remains confident that Indiana courts will reverse the certification and restore the victory he believed he had secured after the primary.

The legal challenge means the political fight may not be finished. Courts could be asked to review how the disputed ballots were treated and whether election officials properly applied Indiana law during the recount process.

Unless a judge intervenes, however, Copenhaver stands as the Republican nominee and the winner of one of Indiana’s closest primary contests.

Her victory also carries consequences extending well beyond a single State Senate district.

If the result survives court review, Republicans supporting redistricting are expected to have the votes needed to advance a new congressional map during the middle of the decade.

That could significantly alter the political terrain ahead of the midterm elections.

For Trump, the result provides evidence that endorsements and primary pressure can move state legislatures.

Lawmakers who dismissed his redistricting demands are now watching allies lose races and opponents prepare to take their seats.

For Indiana conservatives, the recount represents something more basic.

An incumbent resisted a major Trump priority, faced a serious primary challenger, and discovered that three votes can separate political survival from an abrupt trip home.

The courts may still have their say, but the current scoreboard is unmistakable.

Copenhaver won, Deery lost, and Indiana Republicans inclined to ignore their voters just received a lesson that could not have been delivered more clearly.

‘Too Many White People’ DSA Candidate’s Bid to Excuse Radical Tweets Backfires Spectacularly [WATCH]

/

Francesca Hong, a self-identified Democratic Socialist and Democratic candidate for governor of Wisconsin, is facing renewed attention over social media posts she made between 2019 and 2021 as voters prepare to cast ballots in the state’s August 11 primary, as reported by Trending Politics News.

Hong has sought to explain several of the controversial posts by pointing to her earlier ambitions of becoming a sports journalist.

During a recent press gaggle, she said, “I was actually trying to become a sports journalist when I first went to college. So I learned you sometimes have bad takes on Twitter,” she said with a smirk.

Several of the posts were published in 2020. In November of that year, Hong wrote, “Cancel Thanksgiving. Should have done this in 1621,” and described the holiday as being rooted in “genocide.”

Thanksgiving was established as a national holiday by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863 during the Civil War, with the holiday intended in part to promote national unity.

In another post from roughly the same period, Hong referred to Thanksgiving as a “colonizer holiday.”

Other posts from the same general timeframe included critical comments about holidays such as Valentine’s Day and Christmas-related imagery.

Hong also drew attention for a 2019 post concerning an experience at a Culver’s restaurant in Black River Falls.

She wrote that she left after eating briefly because she was “on the verge of a anxiety attack” due to “to many old white people who didn’t think we spoke English.”

Additional posts from 2020 and 2021 included strong statements about policing and the U.S. Senate.

In one post, Hong wrote, “Police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish. Reform can’t be an option.” In another, she called for the “Abolish the Senate.”

The timing of the posts has also become part of the discussion surrounding Hong’s explanation. Hong was first elected to the Wisconsin State House in 2020.

Some of the posts now receiving attention were published after she had been elected but before she formally took office, while others were written during her tenure as a state representative.

The November 2020 Thanksgiving post came after her election victory but before she was sworn into office.

The October 2021 statement concerning police and the February 2021 call to abolish the Senate were made while she was serving as a state representative.

Hong has separately attempted to clarify her comments about Thanksgiving in interviews and public statements.

In an interview with Politico, she said Thanksgiving is her favorite holiday and stated, “I don’t want to cancel it. I actually love it.”

She has also described herself as “kind of a curmudgeon when it comes to holidays in general.”

At the same time, Hong has continued to characterize Thanksgiving as a holiday rooted in “genocide” while campaigning.

The controversy comes as Wisconsin Democrats and Republicans prepare for the August 11 primary.

With less than 24 hours remaining before polls close in the state, Hong holds a substantial lead in available polling and is widely projected to win the Democratic nomination for governor.

On the Republican side, U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany, a member of the House Freedom Caucus, is widely projected to secure the GOP nomination.

The outcome of Tuesday’s primary will determine the nominees who advance to the general election for governor.

Hong’s past social media activity has become a prominent issue in the final stretch of the Democratic primary campaign as voters consider the candidates seeking the party’s nomination.

Mexican Cartel Boss Tied to Mayor and Influencer Murders Captured

Mexican Cartel Boss Tied to Mayor and Influencer Murders Captured

/

Mexican authorities have captured the alleged leader of a notoriously violent criminal cell tied to the Jalisco New Generation Cartel.

Officials say the arrest connects a mayoral assassination with the horrifying livestreamed murder of a 23-year-old beauty influencer, as reported by Fox News.

Ramón Ángel Álvarez Ayala was taken into custody during a coordinated operation involving military personnel and law enforcement officers.

Authorities identified him as the leader of Los Rs, a criminal organization operating across parts of Michoacán and Jalisco.

Investigators allege Álvarez Ayala ordered and financed the November 2025 assassination of Uruapan Mayor Carlos Manzo.

His organization has also been linked to the May 2025 killing of social media creator Valeria Márquez inside her beauty salon.

Mexican Security Secretary Omar García Harfuch released details about the investigation one day after the arrest.

He described Los Rs as one of the most violent criminal cells associated with the powerful Jalisco New Generation Cartel.

“This organization is involved in extortion, murders and drug trafficking, directly affecting producers, business owners and families in the region,” García Harfuch said.

The statement paints a familiar picture of cartel rule, where ordinary citizens pay the price while criminals enforce their will through bloodshed.

Authorities said the cell maintained operations in Apatzingán, Uruapan and Morelia in Michoacán, along with territory in Jalisco.

The group allegedly used murder and intimidation to control communities, pressure businesses and protect its drug trafficking network.

Márquez had built a substantial following on TikTok, where more than 100,000 people watched her beauty and lifestyle content.

She was livestreaming from her salon in Zapopan when an armed man reportedly entered and asked, “Are you Valeria?”

Video from the broadcast appeared to show the man handing Márquez a gift before shooting her in the chest and head.

She collapsed while the camera continued recording, and another individual eventually ended the livestream.

The brutal killing was initially investigated as a femicide, a classification under Mexican law for certain gender based murders.

Authorities now say evidence links the crime to Francisco, Márquez’s former boyfriend and the son of Álvarez Ayala.

García Harfuch said Francisco had allegedly threatened Márquez several times after their relationship ended.

Investigators believe he may have turned to his cartel-connected father to arrange the killing, an allegation prosecutors will now have to establish with evidence.

“This criminal cell allegedly participated under his orders in coordinating multiple violent acts in the region. Among them is the tragic feminicide of Valeria Márquez, which occurred in May 2025 in Zapopan, Jalisco, a crime linked to Francisco, the victim’s former partner and Ramón Ángel’s son,” García Harfuch said.

Francisco remains at large as authorities continue searching for him.

Jalisco officials have arrested another man accused of participating in Márquez’s murder, suggesting investigators are continuing to unravel the network behind the public execution.

Álvarez Ayala also stands accused of orchestrating the assassination of Mayor Manzo during Day of the Dead celebrations in November 2025.

Manzo was an outspoken critic of organized crime and had worked to remove corruption from the local police force.

That stance made Manzo a threat to criminal interests accustomed to buying officials or silencing them through violence.

Authorities have arrested 31 people in connection with his killing, according to García Harfuch, reflecting the scale of the alleged conspiracy.

Álvarez Ayala is being held at the Altiplano maximum security prison while federal prosecutors pursue charges.

Investigations into both killings remain active, and Mexican authorities have not announced when Francisco or other suspected conspirators might be captured.

The Treasury Department has described the Jalisco New Generation Cartel as “one of the most powerful cartels in the world.”

American officials sanctioned more than 50 people and entities in Mexico linked to the organization in July, targeting its financial infrastructure.

The arrest represents a significant strike against a criminal cell accused of terrorizing families, entrepreneurs and elected officials.

Whether it produces lasting security will depend on prosecutions, additional arrests and Mexico’s willingness to keep cartel operatives behind bars.

Creepy Teen Clown Seen Going Door-to-Door Before Deadly Illinois Attack [WATCH]

Creepy Teen Clown Seen Going Door-to-Door Before Deadly Illinois Attack [WATCH]

/

A 15-year-old wearing a clown costume was taken into custody Monday night after police investigating a fatal stabbing in East St. Louis, Illinois, identified the teenager as a suspect.

The investigation began after neighbors reported seeing a teenager dressed in a black-and-red clown costume carrying a knife while walking through a residential neighborhood earlier in the evening.

Residents told police the teen had been going door-to-door before the deadly incident unfolded. Doorbell camera footage captured the individual wearing a clown mask, glasses and a black-and-red costume as he approached at least one home.

In the video, the unidentified teenager can be heard telling the homeowner, “I have a gift for you,” before turning around and walking away.

Hours later, authorities received a report of a body lying in the roadway.

According to police, officers with the East St. Louis Police Department responded to the scene shortly after 10 p.m. Monday after receiving a call regarding a person in the roadway.

When officers arrived, they discovered the victim deceased.

The St. Clair County Coroner’s Office later identified the victim as 78-year-old John Wesley Allen Sr.

The coroner determined that Allen died after suffering multiple stab wounds.

As officers investigated the homicide, police identified the 15-year-old as a suspect in the case.

The teenager, whose identity has not been released because of his age, was taken into custody Monday night. Authorities have not announced whether formal criminal charges have been filed.

Illinois State Police confirmed the teenager’s detention while the homicide investigation remains ongoing.

According to NBC News, East St. Louis police identified the juvenile as a suspect after officers arrived at the scene of the homicide.

The investigation has also focused on video circulating online that appears to show the teenager before the fatal stabbing.

Illinois State Police acknowledged that footage of the suspect wearing the clown costume has been widely shared on social media.

According to state police, investigators are working to collect all available video connected to the incident as part of the ongoing investigation.

The doorbell camera footage has drawn significant attention because it appears to show the suspect approaching homes before police were called to the scene where Allen’s body was later discovered.

Residents who encountered the teenager earlier in the evening told investigators they observed him carrying a knife while walking through the neighborhood.

The sequence of events has become a central part of the investigation as authorities work to determine exactly what occurred between the time the teenager was seen going door-to-door and the discovery of Allen’s body.

The homicide has shaken the East St. Louis community, where investigators continue gathering evidence and interviewing witnesses.

Officials have not publicly discussed a possible motive, nor have they released additional details about any interaction between the victim and the suspect prior to the stabbing.

Because the suspect is a juvenile, authorities have also released limited information regarding his identity.

Investigators are continuing to review surveillance footage from the neighborhood, including recordings from residential security cameras, as they work to establish a complete timeline of the events leading up to the killing.

State police said they are seeking all available video related to the case, including the footage already circulating online, as part of the homicide investigation.

At this stage, officials have confirmed only that the teenager remains in custody while investigators continue their work.

No additional information regarding possible charges or future court proceedings has been announced.

The investigation remains active as law enforcement agencies continue collecting evidence surrounding the fatal stabbing of John Wesley Allen Sr. in East St. Louis.

Hamas Linked CAIR Figures Flood El Sayed Campaign with More Than $100,000 [WATCH]

Hamas Linked CAIR Figures Flood El Sayed Campaign with More Than $100,000 [WATCH]

/

Michigan Democrat Abdul El Sayed has emerged from his party primary with a Senate nomination and a sizable controversy attached to his campaign.

Federal election records reviewed by Fox News reportedly show more than $115,000 in donations from employees and leaders connected to the Council on American Islamic Relations, commonly known as CAIR, as reported by PJ Media.

El Sayed will face Republican Mike Rogers in a closely watched midterm contest that could help determine control of the Senate.

The money trail is especially awkward because El Sayed has made “money out of politics” a central campaign message while benefiting from a concentrated network of politically connected donors.

Among the donors identified were CAIR national Board Chair Manal Fakhoury, national Vice Chair Emad Sabbah, national Board Treasurer Eyas Abdeen, and CAIR Michigan board member Jukaku Tayeb.

Tayeb is also El Sayed’s father-in-law, adding a family connection to the financial support surrounding the campaign.

Tayeb has reportedly become one of the largest backers of a super PAC supporting El Sayed.

He was also described as a member of the founding committee of the Islamic Society of North America, an organization that critics and investigators have scrutinized over alleged historical links to Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas financing networks.

Another donor cited in federal records was CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad, who appeared under the name Nehad Hammad.

Awad faced national condemnation after saying he was “happy” to see Hamas break out of Gaza on October 7, 2023, comments that remain politically radioactive for any candidate taking his money.

Fox News reported that donors tied to CAIR chapters in Arizona, California, Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Washington, Minnesota, and Ohio also contributed.

That broad geographic reach makes the support look less like a few isolated checks, and more like a coordinated political network rallying behind one favored Michigan candidate.

CAIR itself did more than watch from the sidelines. Its Michigan primary voting guide placed El Sayed first among the organization’s endorsements, a public show of support that will give Rogers and national Republicans ample material as the general election campaign intensifies.

The list of contributors also included Rubina Alvi, Asaad Traina, Muzammil Ahmed, Atef Ibrahim, Dina Ezzeddine, and former CAIR national Board Chair Roula Allouch.

Ahmed, a CAIR Michigan board member, reportedly gave $11,600, making him one of the more prominent individual donors named in the review.

CAIR has long faced scrutiny from federal law enforcement and conservative state leaders over its history and associations.

Since 2008, the FBI has restricted official contact with the organization after evidence introduced in a terror financing case identified CAIR within a network tied by prosecutors to Hamas.

That history is not ancient trivia when money is pouring into a major Senate campaign.

Voters have every right to ask whether El Sayed shares the priorities of these donors, what access they expect, and why so many CAIR figures consider his victory important.

CAIR has also fought efforts to expose its finances, according to the source material, settling a 2025 lawsuit brought by a former board member and employee before funding information could be disclosed.

Critics argue that such secrecy only deepens questions that transparency could otherwise answer.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott designated CAIR a foreign terrorist organization, while Florida Governor Ron DeSantis labeled it a domestic terror organization.

Those state actions have intensified the political pressure, even as legislation in the United States House seeks a federal terrorist designation for the group.

CAIR disputes characterizations that it is a terrorist organization, and a federal designation has not been enacted.

Still, that does not erase the documented controversy, the FBI restrictions, Awad’s inflammatory remarks, or the unmistakable enthusiasm CAIR officials have shown for El Sayed’s candidacy.

El Sayed now has a credibility problem of his own making.

A politician cannot rail against entrenched money while welcoming more than six figures from a tightly connected ideological circle, then expect working families to shrug and accept the usual campaign finance word games.

Rogers will almost certainly make this donor network a defining issue in the race, and he should.

Michigan voters deserve direct answers about who financed El Sayed’s rise, what influence those supporters seek, and whether his campaign’s reform rhetoric is anything more than polished Democrat packaging.

Trump Unleashes Sweeping Orders Against Birthright Citizenship Abuse and Birth Tourism [WATCH]

Trump Unleashes Sweeping Orders Against Birthright Citizenship Abuse and Birth Tourism [WATCH]

/

President Donald Trump moved aggressively on Thursday to defend the value of American citizenship, signing two executive orders aimed at limiting birthright citizenship claims under recognized historical exceptions and shutting down birth tourism, as reported by Trending Politics News.

The actions put federal agencies on notice that citizenship is not supposed to function as an immigration prize.

The orders follow the Supreme Court’s June 30, 2026, ruling in Trump v. Barbara, which examined an earlier directive issued on January 20, 2025.

Trump Blasts Critics as 'Fools' While Calling for Global Ceasefire and Celebrating Market Boom

That directive told federal agencies not to recognize citizenship in certain cases involving parents who were unlawfully present or legally present only on a temporary basis.

Under the earlier policy, the restriction applied when the other parent was neither an American citizen nor a lawful permanent resident.

The dispute placed the Citizenship Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment squarely at the center of the administration’s broader immigration fight.

The Court held that citizenship reaches children born to parents in the United States “for whom no extraterritorial fiction applie[s].”

Trump responded by promising further action, particularly against a birth tourism industry built around exploiting American soil.

The first new order, “Continuing to Protect the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship,” directs the executive branch to identify categories of children who fall outside the rule described by the Supreme Court.

It also instructs agencies on when citizenship documents should not be issued or accepted.

One covered category involves a child whose parents are not citizens and whose mother or father is considered an alien enemy.

That definition includes members of designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations and individuals classified as Specially Designated Global Terrorists.

The order also addresses children of foreign government personnel, including ambassadors and certain embassy or consulate employees who remain nationals of another country.

It further covers people serving foreign governments in official roles and employees of international organizations who enjoy immunity.

The second order, “Ending Birth Tourism,” targets the calculated practice of entering the country on a temporary visa primarily to give birth and secure American citizenship for a child.

Operators have turned that loophole into a business, offering travel arrangements, housing, and other services to foreign customers.

“United States citizenship is among the greatest inheritances the Nation can bestow. It embodies a sacred bond between the American people and the Nation in which they live, and carries profound rights, privileges, and responsibilities reflective of the enduring allegiance of citizens to the United States and our Constitution.”

“Citizenship is not a commodity to be acquired through calculated exploitation and evasion of the immigration laws, such as by entering the United States on a nonimmigrant visa for the purpose of giving birth within the Nation’s borders,” the order states.

That is plain common sense, even if Washington’s open borders crowd finds it offensive.

The order defines birth tourism as “(a) the entry of any foreign national into the United States via a nonimmigrant visa for the purpose of giving birth on American soil; or (b) any effort by any foreign national to facilitate the entry of any foreign national into the United States via a nonimmigrant visa for the purpose of giving birth on American soil.”

It reaches both visitors seeking citizenship by location and networks helping arrange the trip.

Trump delegated authority under section 215(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act to the secretaries of State and Homeland Security.

They may implement the directive through agency rules, policies, and guidance designed to detect and prevent birth tourism.

Possible enforcement measures include denying visas, blocking entry, revoking existing visas, removing participants, and taking action against facilitators.

The administration is making clear that commercial schemes built around manipulating citizenship rules will face federal scrutiny.

The directive allows exemptions for humanitarian reasons or when admission would serve the national interest.

Those determinations will rest with the relevant secretaries rather than travel operators selling access to American citizenship.

During the Oval Office signing ceremony, Trump said, “We had a very unfortunate decision in the Supreme Court concerning birthright… So we’re making adjustments because it’s very unfair.”

“They’re building businesses around birthright citizenship. That’s not the way it was supposed to work.”

“It’s a disgrace. They’re buying their way in, and we’re not going to let it happen.”

The orders continue Trump’s push to make citizenship meaningful rather than transactional.

While legal challenges are certain, the administration has drawn a bright line against those who view American citizenship as another product to purchase through clever travel planning.

Bodycam Captures Police K9 Leaping Into Action as Defiant Suspect Refuses Surrender [WATCH]

/

A suspected impaired driver in Washington refused to surrender for more than 40 minutes before police sent K9 Midas through the driver’s side window, ending a tense roadside standoff captured on newly released body camera footage, as reported by Fox News.

The Vancouver Police Department released body camera and dashboard camera video Thursday showing the July 26 pursuit, prolonged confrontation, and arrest.

Officers displayed considerable patience before Midas delivered the unmistakable message that discussion time was finished.

Police said the incident began after dispatchers received multiple reports about a driver who appeared impaired.

Witnesses reportedly said the man had passed out behind the wheel and was inhaling from compressed air cans while operating the vehicle.

Officers located the vehicle and allegedly saw the driver continuing to inhale from a can. They attempted to initiate a traffic stop, but police said the driver refused to pull over and instead tried to escape.

Video shows the vehicle striking a curb, accelerating away, and nearly entering a residential yard during the attempted getaway.

Police determined that the reckless driving created an immediate threat to motorists, pedestrians, and nearby residents.

An officer then deployed a Grappler device, which is designed to stop a fleeing vehicle by capturing one of its rear wheels.

The device worked, bringing the dangerous pursuit to a controlled stop before the driver could cause further havoc.

Stopping the car did not produce immediate cooperation from the man inside. Police said he repeatedly ignored commands to exit the vehicle, forcing officers to establish a perimeter and consider how to safely remove him.

For more than 40 minutes, officers communicated with the driver and evaluated several possible tactics.

Those options included a 40 millimeter less lethal launcher and pepper balls, but police continued giving the suspect opportunities to surrender peacefully.

Authorities said the driver kept inhaling from compressed air cans throughout the standoff.

He also continued refusing repeated commands, apparently believing that ignoring police long enough might somehow make the entire situation disappear.

Officers eventually issued multiple warnings that a police dog would be deployed if the suspect did not comply.

When those warnings failed, K9 Midas was directed through the open driver-side window and into the vehicle.

The footage shows Midas springing through the window without hesitation.

Officers immediately moved in around the vehicle, secured the driver, and brought the confrontation to a rapid conclusion after patience and repeated warnings had gotten nowhere.

Police took Brandon Wells into custody without allowing the roadside standoff to drag into an even more dangerous spectacle.

The coordinated response also prevented the suspect from restarting the vehicle or creating another threat to the public.

Wells was booked into the Clark County Jail on charges of attempting to elude police, driving under the influence, reckless driving, and resisting arrest.

Those accusations reflect nearly every stage of the incident, from the alleged impairment to the chase and refusal to surrender.

The department said the arrest followed extensive efforts to gain voluntary compliance.

Officers tried communication, warnings, and less lethal options before calling on Midas, showing the sort of measured escalation critics of law enforcement often pretend does not happen.

The dramatic footage offers a clear view of what officers face when a routine traffic stop turns into a prolonged confrontation.

Midas did not debate, posture, or make excuses; he simply leaped into action and helped officers finish the job.

North Carolina Career Criminal Busted After Terrifying Attacks on Women Flood Social Media [WATCH]

/

A North Carolina man with a long criminal record is back in custody after police say he attacked one woman and chased another while recording the encounters for social media.

The footage presents a chilling picture of random street violence unfolding in a Charlotte neighborhood, according to The New York Post.

Authorities identified the suspect as 32-year-old Di Quan Schafar Hunt. Charlotte Mecklenburg police arrested him Thursday in connection with an alleged assault near the 400 block of East Boulevard on July 30.

Police reportedly learned about the incidents after being shown several disturbing videos from Hunt’s social media account.

Rather than conceal his alleged conduct, Hunt apparently broadcast his confrontations for the public to see, giving investigators unusually direct evidence.

In one recording, Hunt discussed what he called a “real issue” that occurred on July 21. He then crossed paths with an unidentified woman who was carrying a get-well balloon and appeared to be minding her own business.

“Nah, don’t wave to me,” Hunt shouted before allegedly flying into a rage and punching the woman to the pavement.

The sudden attack appeared unprovoked, turning an ordinary walk through the neighborhood into a terrifying ordeal.

Police said the woman was hospitalized following the assault. Hunt, described as five foot nine and weighing approximately 220 pounds, allegedly stood over the motionless victim while screaming racial slurs as she remained on the ground.

“You still talking? You still talking?” Hunt yelled during the recording.

He also allegedly ripped the broken frames from the woman’s sunglasses, kicked the balloon from her hand, and fled the area after the assault.

Another video showed Hunt ranting about McDonald’s before charging toward a different woman on a sidewalk.

The frightened woman attempted to escape by circling a parked vehicle as Hunt chased her and shouted profanities.

The second encounter was not dated in the available footage, but its disturbing nature helped prompt police action.

The videos showed the sort of street chaos residents are routinely told to tolerate until the danger becomes impossible for officials to ignore.

On Thursday morning, officers responded to an “attempt to locate” call in central Charlotte and were shown the videos attributed to Hunt.

Authorities obtained an arrest warrant and took him into custody at approximately 7:30 that evening.

Hunt was transported to a medical facility for treatment after his arrest, though officials did not disclose why treatment was necessary.

Police said he would be transferred to the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office following his release from the facility.

He is expected to be charged with Assault with a Deadly Weapon.

That charge comes despite a criminal record stretching across years and containing numerous accusations involving violence, weapons, trespassing, probation violations, and domestic disputes.

Jail records reviewed by the New York Post reportedly show that Hunt has been arrested at least nine times in Mecklenburg County during the past 34 months.

Those cases included simple assault, assault on a female, trespassing, and violating a domestic violence protective order.

Between December 2012 and June 2019, Hunt was arrested three times for assault on a female and three times for violating a domestic violence protective order.

He was also arrested for discharging a firearm inside the city and causing injury to personal property.

In June 2019, Hunt pleaded guilty to discharging a weapon into occupied property and violating felony probation.

He received a prison sentence of 20 to 36 months but was released in June 2020 for reasons that were not immediately explained.

Hunt was arrested again in August 2024 and later convicted of breaking or entering, damaging personal property, and violating misdemeanor probation.

He received 90 days in jail, but the sentence was credited as time already served.

His most recent conviction came in March 2026 for assault with a deadly weapon and carrying a concealed weapon stemming from a December 2025 incident.

He received an 89-day sentence but did not return to jail because of credit accumulated while awaiting trial.

The latest attack occurred less than one year after Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska was fatally stabbed aboard a Charlotte light rail train.

The 23-year-old had fled Russia’s invasion of Ukraine only to be killed in a random attack while traveling home from work.

Decarlos Brown Jr. was accused of stabbing Zarutska on August 22, 2025, as she sat alone inside the train.

Hunt’s arrest now raises another grim question for Charlotte residents about how many warnings the system needs before repeat offenders are kept away from innocent people.

Masked Communist Goon Invades St. Paul Meeting to Demand Abolition of Private Property [WATCH]

Masked Communist Goon Invades St. Paul Meeting to Demand Abolition of Private Property [WATCH]

/

A masked radical used a St. Paul City Council meeting to unload an angry attack on private property, capitalism, police power, and the American system itself.

The spectacle offered another warning about how openly communist ideas are creeping into local government forums, as reported by Townhall.

The Democratic Socialists of America and their ideological allies have spent years demanding the elimination of institutions that protect freedom, prosperity, and individual responsibility.

Private property remains one of their favorite targets because ownership gives ordinary citizens independence from government control.

That is precisely why the radical left treats landlords, homeowners, and business owners as villains.

Once government can seize or dictate the use of property, citizens become dependent on politicians and bureaucrats who suddenly control where people live and how wealth is distributed.

Naturally, socialist rules rarely seem to apply equally to socialist elites and their politically connected friends.

Cea Weaver, a housing adviser to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, has advocated taking property from landlords even as her family enjoys considerable private wealth.

Mamdani also comes from a family with access to a private compound in Uganda. Apparently, private property becomes morally offensive only when it belongs to somebody outside the socialist club.

The masked speaker in St. Paul delivered the familiar collection of accusations about colonialism, capitalism, fascism, and government oppression.

His appearance also raised an obvious question about why someone addressing elected officials was permitted to conceal his identity.

“What we are all participating in here is a settler colony on stolen land. This is a government that represents the settlers, and the capitalists, and the other neoliberal fascists that live amongst us,” the masked man said.

The rhetoric quickly shifted from revolutionary buzzwords to an emotional attack on authorities and the economic system.

Like most communist speeches, it portrayed enforcement of basic public rules as proof of some vast capitalist conspiracy.

“Why are they brutalizing all of these innocent, beautiful people? It’s crazy.”

“I mean, I’m sure they take care of their pets at home, and they take care of their kids at home, and they kiss their kids goodnight and all that,” he continued, “but what this government, what this system exists to do is to enforce private property.”

“And if these people think that they can just go live in the park, no no no. That’ll bring all our property values down.”

“That’ll collapse the whole system. So what can we do besides beg and plead you motherf***ers for a little bit of humanity?”

The rant exposed the central grievance behind the performance.

The speaker was not merely criticizing a particular policy or asking officials to improve services; he was condemning the basic right of people to own homes, land, and businesses.

He then appeared to call for authorities to be stripped of the tools they use to enforce the law. The language was clumsy, but the hostility toward police power and public order was unmistakable.

“I think what we should do is take their ability away to brutalize us like this.”

“I think we should take away the weapons from the armed group. of things that they use to brutalize all of us,” he concluded.

There is also a glaring contradiction surrounding the mask. Leftist activists routinely complain when federal immigration officers conceal their faces during dangerous operations.

Yet, a radical can hide his identity while berating public officials and cursing during a council meeting.

The public is also left to wonder whether the speaker personally owns property or enjoys the financial security he wants denied to others.

Socialist agitators have a long tradition of demanding sacrifice from everyone else while protecting their own homes, incomes, and privileges.

Private property is not some minor administrative preference.

It is a foundation of liberty because it allows families to build wealth, create businesses, pass assets to their children, and live without asking government permission for every major decision.

Abolishing that right would produce economic ruin, social disorder, and massive government coercion.

That result is not an accidental flaw in communism; it is the inevitable destination of an ideology built on confiscation, resentment, and centralized control.

Americans should take these public eruptions seriously, even when the messenger resembles a masked street performer reciting revolutionary slogans.

Dangerous movements grow when citizens dismiss them as theater instead of confronting their destructive goals directly.

Senator John Kennedy brought his trademark bluntness to Fox Business during an appearance with Larry Kudlow, taking aim at Washington delay tactics and the increasingly radical agenda of the Democratic Party.

The Louisiana Republican was funny, direct, and clearly tired of excuses, as reported by Red State.

Kennedy focused on the SAVE America Act and the failure of Senate Majority Leader John Thune to move the legislation forward.

He made clear that he was prepared to remain in Washington until senators finished the job voters sent them there to do.

The senator said he did not know when leadership planned to hold a vote, but insisted that the matter could not be delayed forever.

If Kennedy were running the show, he said, the legislation would have already received a reconciliation vote.

Washington politicians have perfected the art of replacing action with meetings, memos, and endless discussion.

Kennedy clearly has had enough of that familiar Capitol Hill routine, where urgency disappears as soon as lawmakers enter a conference room.

“I am prepared to stay here as long as it takes. I’ve been to a squillion meetings to talk about this stuff that could’ve been an email!”

Kennedy then delivered the line that instantly captured the frustration of millions of Americans.

“I’d rather have a back alley colonoscopy than go to another meeting! It’s time to vote!”

That is vintage Kennedy, colorful enough to get attention and pointed enough to expose the absurdity.

His message was simple: stop talking, stop stalling, and put senators on the record so Americans can see who supports the legislation.

The SAVE America Act is too important to be buried under another mountain of procedural excuses.

Kennedy argued that lawmakers should remain in Washington, skip the recess if necessary, and handle the business sitting directly in front of them.

His frustration also reflected a larger problem within Republican leadership.

Conservatives have watched too many priorities get slowed by process while Democrats rarely hesitate to push their agenda with every available lever of power.

Kennedy was not finished after calling out Senate inaction.

He also turned his attention toward the far left wing of the Democratic Party and its effort to disguise radical policies beneath carefully packaged claims about helping ordinary Americans.

Democrats increasingly wrap themselves in a “We care about the working class” costume, but their policies often tell a very different story.

Socialist figures such as New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani struggle to explain who belongs to the “working class” they claim to represent.

That confusion is not surprising when the modern left appears more comfortable with academic slogans than with the daily concerns of families, police officers, small business owners, and taxpayers.

The more Democratic activists talk, the more detached their agenda sounds outside deeply blue political enclaves.

Kennedy summarized that disconnect with characteristic clarity. “These folks have contempt for America when they should have gratitude.”

He continued by warning that radical Democrats “wanna open the prisons, open the border, defund the police, defund ICE, abolish Thanksgiving,” while also seeking an economy directed by Washington bureaucrats.

Those ideas may earn applause from activists, but they are a hard sell across most of America.

Kennedy closed with the political reality Democrats keep trying to ignore. “The American people aren’t gonna, not going to support that kind of nonsense.”

That judgment explains why the left keeps relying on softer branding and emotional appeals instead of openly defending its agenda.

Americans can recognize a radical program even when Democrats package it as compassion and cover it with promises about fairness.

Kennedy’s response worked because it cut through both Republican hesitation and Democratic spin.

Voters are not asking for another meeting, another slogan, or another carefully managed delay; they want lawmakers to vote and stand behind the consequences.
