Idaho In-N-Out Massacre Gunman Named After Deadly Rampage [WATCH]

Authorities have identified Chad Williams, 24, as the gunman who killed two people and wounded seven others during a shooting at an In-N-Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho, on Saturday afternoon, as reported by The New York Post.

Twin Falls Police Chief Matthew Hicks announced the identification during a Sunday, Aug. 2, press conference. According to investigators, Williams carried out the attack with a rifle before taking his own life with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Police said the shooting began at about 2 p.m. Saturday at the recently opened In-N-Out Burger and quickly spread from the restaurant to the parking lot, creating what Hicks described as a “very chaotic” scene.

Investigators said Williams acted alone. Authorities also said his family has cooperated fully with the investigation.

“Their hearts are also broken at this time,” Hicks said of Williams’s family.

Police credited an off-duty law enforcement officer and an armed civilian with helping limit the attack before it ended.

“We want to take a moment and commend the actions of the off-duty officer and this citizen and their heroic action to stop this incident,” Hicks said.

“We believe their actions helped drive the suspect away from the scene, preventing further casualties.”

Video recorded from the scene showed an armed civilian exchanging gunfire with Williams outside the restaurant. Additional footage appeared to show the suspect walking through the parking lot before aiming a rifle toward the driver’s-side window of a blue Tesla and firing two shots. The video then showed Williams lowering the rifle, moving away from the vehicle, and running across the parking lot while still carrying the firearm.

According to police, Williams fired the rifle from outside the restaurant’s drive-thru area as customers and employees attempted to escape. Emergency responders arrived after workers and bystanders rushed to help those who had been injured.

One In-N-Out employee reportedly dragged a wounded co-worker across the parking lot while others provided assistance until paramedics reached the scene.

In-N-Out Burger President Lynsi Snyder confirmed that one of the company’s associates was among those killed in the attack. Authorities have not yet released the identities of the two people who died.

Police provided an update Sunday on the conditions of the seven surviving victims. Two people have been treated and released from the hospital. Three others remain hospitalized in stable condition, while two victims continue to be listed in critical condition.

Among those injured was Twin Falls taxi driver Terry Dudley. According to a GoFundMe campaign created to help cover his medical expenses, Dudley was charging his Tesla when he was struck by gunfire.

The fundraiser states that Dudley, a widower and father of four, was shot twice in the back during the attack.

“There are very few people in this world like Terry. He is the kind of man who quietly puts others before himself, who works hard, loves deeply, and never hesitates to lend a helping hand,” the fundraiser states.

“He is tenacious, compassionate, kind-hearted, and has a way of making those around him smile, even on their hardest days.”

Investigators have not announced a motive for the shooting. Police said the investigation remains active as detectives continue collecting evidence and interviewing witnesses.

Saturday’s attack is among the deadliest shootings to strike Twin Falls in recent years and drew a significant response from local law enforcement and emergency personnel. Authorities have asked anyone with additional information, photographs, or video from the scene to contact investigators as they continue working to determine what led to the violence.

Birx Scrambles to Save Herself and Blames Fauci After Brutal Senate Meltdown [WATCH]

Former White House Coronavirus Task Force Coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx criticized aspects of the government response to the COVID-19 pandemic during a Newsmax appearance following former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci’s recent testimony before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, as reported by The Gateway Pundit,

Fauci appeared before the committee under subpoena on Wednesday, July 29, after lawmakers sought testimony regarding decisions made during the federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

During the hearing, Fauci invoked his Fifth Amendment rights multiple times when questioned by senators. According to the source material, he declined to answer questions on 111 occasions.

Following the hearing, Birx discussed pandemic policies and argued that politics influenced how some states responded during 2020.

“There were solutions, but it became very political, and we all have to be aware, because it was a presidential election year,” Birx said during her interview with Newsmax.

She continued, “It was really important for blue states to show that they were taking this very seriously, and they overclosed. And we just have to be honest that that happened!”

Birx served as the White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator during the Trump administration and became one of the most recognizable public health officials during the pandemic.

She frequently appeared alongside other federal officials during White House briefings to discuss recommendations related to masking, social distancing, and other mitigation efforts.

Her comments came just days after Fauci’s appearance before the Senate committee, where lawmakers questioned him about various aspects of the federal pandemic response. The hearing focused on government decision-making during COVID-19 and related public health policies.

Birx’s remarks represent one of the most direct public criticisms she has made regarding the response of states that maintained extended restrictions during the pandemic. She argued that political considerations affected decisions made by some state governments, particularly during the presidential election year.

The renewed attention on pandemic-era policies also follows legal actions initiated by several states in 2025. According to the source material, attorneys general from seven states submitted criminal referral letters naming Fauci, Birx, and several current and former public health officials.

Individuals identified in those referrals include former CDC Directors Dr. Rochelle Walensky and Dr. Robert Redfield, former NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins, NIAID Deputy Director Dr. Cliff Lane, former FDA Commissioner Dr. Stephen Hahn, FDA Principal Deputy Commissioner Dr. Janet Woodcock, Dr. Peter Hotez, EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak, University of North Carolina virologist Dr. Ralph Baric, former BARDA Director Dr. Rick Bright, and hospital administrators and care providers in Arizona and Pennsylvania.

According to the referral letters, the allegations include murder, negligent homicide, involuntary manslaughter, medical coercion and abuse, kidnapping, human trafficking for forced labor, racketeering, operating a corrupt organization, and terrorism.

Criminal referral letters are requests for law enforcement authorities to review allegations and do not constitute criminal charges or findings of guilt.

The Senate hearing and Birx’s subsequent interview have renewed debate over federal and state responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Lawmakers continue examining decisions made by public health officials, while former members of the White House Coronavirus Task Force have offered differing assessments of the policies implemented during the public health emergency.

Spanberger Opens Ballot Box to 66,000 Virginia Felons After Restoring Rights [WATCH]

Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger is moving fast to reshape the Commonwealth’s electorate, announcing that her administration has restored civil rights to more than 66,000 Virginians with past felony convictions, as reported by Breitbart.

The Democrat framed the sweeping action as a matter of American principle, declaring in a Friday press release that “the right to vote is foundational to who we are as Americans.” That is the sort of polished political line Democrats love when they are expanding the voter rolls in a way that just happens to benefit their side.

Spanberger said she heard stories of “redemption” both while campaigning for governor and since taking office. Her office made clear the move does not stop at voting, since restored rights also include jury service, running for public office, and becoming a notary public.

Virginia remains one of only three states where the constitution permanently strips citizens with felony convictions of certain civil rights unless the governor restores them. That gives the governor enormous discretion, which Spanberger is now using with unmistakable enthusiasm.

Her office stated that the restored civil rights include “the right to vote, serve on a jury,” and to “run for public office.” In other words, the administration is not simply allowing former felons back into the voting booth; it is reopening several doors of civic authority.

Spanberger took a direct shot at former Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin, who had moved away from automatic restoration and reviewed applications individually. Democrats, of course, call that denial of rights, while many Virginians would call it basic judgment.

“I’m proud that, after contending with my predecessor’s efforts to deny Virginians their fundamental rights, we have restored the rights of more than 66,000 Virginians who have served their time,” Spanberger said.

“These Virginians deserve the right to use their vote, make their voices heard, and be recognized as contributing citizens to our Commonwealth and country.”

The announcement also lands ahead of a major fall referendum in Virginia. Voters are expected to decide whether to approve a constitutional amendment that would allow felons to have their voting rights restored upon release from incarceration.

That would take much of the decision out of the governor’s hands and create a broader restoration process. For Democrats, that is the dream, a permanent structural change wrapped in the language of compassion and civil rights.

Spanberger argued that restoring these rights gives people back “their ability to make an impact at the local, state, and national levels.” She added that doing so helps them “take hold of their second chance.”

“This fall, voters can cast their ballots for Virginia to no longer strip so many of our neighbors of their fundamental rights, a shameful relic of our Jim Crow past,” Spanberger said. “I hope Virginians will join me in voting yes.”

There it is, the predictable escalation to one of the left’s favorite rhetorical weapons. If a Republican governor wants individual review for people with felony records, Democrats reach for history’s darkest chapters and pretend the debate is over.

According to Virginia Public Media, Youngkin restored the voting rights of fewer than 10,000 Virginians. That followed his decision to roll back the automatic restoration process used by his three predecessors and handle each case individually.

Spanberger’s approach is far broader, and the political implications are obvious. Virginia voters will now decide whether this mass restoration push becomes part of a larger constitutional shift, while Democrats celebrate another expansion of the electorate they believe will help them at the ballot box.

Lifetime Dem James Carville Threatens to Leave the Party if This Happens [WATCH]

The Democrat Party has spent years pretending its radical socialist problem is just a noisy corner of the room. Now that corner is grabbing microphones, winning primaries, and making old party warhorses like James Carville sound the alarm.

Carville, hardly a conservative choirboy, is suddenly the voice of political sanity inside a party that seems determined to confuse revolutionary cosplay with a governing agenda. When even he starts warning Democrats that the inmates are getting too close to the controls, it is worth paying attention, as reported by Red State.

The rise of the Democratic Socialists of America and other leftist radicals has exposed a nasty truth about the modern Democrat coalition. The party loves to brag about being a “big tent,” which in practical terms means almost anyone gets welcomed in if they might help Democrats keep power.

That approach may have worked when the fringe knew how to stay quiet. It gets a lot harder when the fringe starts openly talking about upending the basic principles that keep the American system standing.

Carville made his position clear during a Fox interview, and for once, his famous ranting had a point. He sees what party leaders keep trying to downplay, which is that Democrats are flirting with political suicide.

“I am NOT going to be in the same party as Hasan Piker! I can tell you that right now!” Carville said during an interview on Fox.

“If he becomes a force within the Democratic Party, I’m out of here! I have no intention of ever being in the same political party with that guy!”

For conservatives who have spent years watching Democrats deny the obvious, this was almost refreshing. Carville is not wrong, and that may be the strangest part of the whole spectacle.

The problem for Carville is that Piker already appears to be exactly the kind of force he is warning about. He has backed socialist candidates who won primaries in New York City, and he has campaigned with Abdul El Sayed, who is leading for the Democratic nomination in Michigan.

That means Carville is not standing at the gate trying to stop the barbarians from entering. He is looking around the banquet hall, realizing they have already found the silverware.

Carville suggested that an overwhelming number of Democrats agree with him. Maybe some do, but the numbers inside the party tell a far more troubling story for anyone who still thinks Democrats are a center-left party with a few loud radicals on the margins.

About one third of Democrats now identify as Democratic Socialists. That is not a small activist club meeting in a campus basement. That is a major faction with real influence, real candidates, and real appetite for power.

Carville also pointed to the platform itself, which is where Democrats usually hope voters never look too closely. “This idea that we’re going to ‘seize the means of production’ , just look at the DSA platform,” Carville argued. “You don’t have to look any further than that.”

He is right about that, too. Voters do not need a graduate seminar in political theory to understand that seizing the means of production is not a harmless slogan. It is a flashing red warning sign dressed up as youthful idealism.

“One thing I can tell you for certain, Hasan Piker and James Carville are not going to be in the same political party. One of us is going to leave; it might even be me!”

That line may prove to be more prophetic than Carville intended. The Democrat Party is no longer merely tolerating the socialist wing. In many places, it is being shaped, pressured, and intimidated by it.

Party leaders like to pretend they can manage this crowd while still selling moderation to suburban voters. That is the usual Democrat trick: smile sweetly in October, then let the radicals write the wish list after Election Day.

The midterms could expose just how dangerous that game has become. Sane Democrats may stay home, while others may decide that voting Republican is the only practical way to stop the party from wandering deeper into socialist madness.

Michigan could be one of the places where this matters most. If radical energy keeps driving Democrat primaries, Republicans will have a major opening with voters who are tired of being told that socialism is just compassion with better branding.

When Democrats are losing James Carville, the alarm bells are not just ringing. They are practically falling off the wall, and the party brass is still pretending the noise is campaign music.

‘Inshallah, Ya’ll’: Abdul El-Sayed Staffers Praise Allah Ahead of Tuesday’s Primary [WATCH]

Michigan’s Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate is entering its final stretch with candidate Abdul El-Sayed holding a polling advantage over Rep. Haley Stevens, while the race has drawn attention for campaign messaging, endorsements, and debate over the role of religion and identity in the contest.

Video obtained by The Midwesterner shows El-Sayed campaign staff opening a weekly conference call Wednesday with the Arabic phrase “Inshallah,” which translates to “God willing” or “if God wills.”

“Inshallah, ya’ll!” one staffer said at the start of the call.

“Inshallah, we come back for 12 more of these,” added Mark Crain, El-Sayed’s organizing director.

The phrase is commonly used by Muslims as an expression of faith.

Campaign staff also expressed confidence about the state of the race during the meeting.

“We’re kicking ass!” one staffer said.

“We are. No, that’s real, we are,” Crain responded. “Say it, believe it!”

WATCH:

The optimism follows new polling showing El-Sayed with a significant advantage in the Democratic primary.

An Emerson College Polling survey of 700 Michigan Democratic primary voters found El-Sayed leading Stevens, 54% to 39%, with 6% undecided. The poll was released this week as Democrats prepare to select a nominee to replace retiring Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich.

Emerson College Polling Executive Director Spencer Kimball said the results reveal a notable age divide among Democratic voters.

“There is a clear age divide in the Democratic Primary: voters under 50 break for El-Sayed by 42 percentage points, 67% to 25%, and that gap tightens among voters in their 50s to a 12-point lead, and voters over 60 flip to Stevens by a 14-point margin, 53% to 39%,” Kimball said.

According to 270toWin’s average of the four public polls conducted during July, El-Sayed leads Stevens by an average of 45.5% to 39.8%.

State Sen. Mallory McMorrow, D-Royal Oak, exited the race on July 5, leaving El-Sayed and Stevens as the leading Democratic contenders.

The Democratic nominee will face former Congressman Mike Rogers, who is running unopposed for the Republican nomination and has received President Donald Trump’s endorsement.

A separate survey conducted by the Glengariff Group for the Michigan Education Association and Business Leaders for Michigan found Stevens and Rogers essentially tied in a hypothetical general election matchup, with Stevens leading 45.5% to 44.7%, a difference within the poll’s four-point margin of error.

The same poll found Rogers holding a larger advantage over El-Sayed, leading 49% to 38.7%.

The Michigan Senate contest is expected to be one of several races that could influence control of the U.S. Senate following the 2026 midterm elections.

The primary has also highlighted divisions within the Democratic Party.

El-Sayed has received endorsements from Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.

Stevens has secured endorsements from Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, retiring Sen. Gary Peters, and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.

Questions surrounding race and identity have also surfaced during the campaign.

Farmington Public Schools board member Angie Smith recently explained why she is supporting Stevens over El-Sayed.

Speaking at a Stevens campaign event Friday, Smith said, “we need someone that can represent all of us, not just one race but all races.”

Referring to El-Sayed, she added, “The other candidate … doesn’t work a room.”

“You have to know how to work the room, don’t come out speaking only Arabic, don’t come out with your Arabic music on. Represent everyone.”

The event also featured appearances by Whitmer and Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-S.C.

El-Sayed’s campaign has also drawn attention because of several supporters and associates.

Among those who have publicly supported El-Sayed are political commentator Hasan Piker and longtime socialist activist Tom Burke.

Fox News has also reported that Iraqi-American activist Anas Shallal hosted a fundraiser for El-Sayed. According to the report, Shallal’s social media accounts contain posts expressing support for Cuba, the late Cuban leader Fidel Castro, the Free Palestine movement, Colin Kaepernick, Zohran Mamdani, and Assata Shakur.

Fox News also reported that El-Sayed received $800 in campaign contributions in 2017 from Imam Mohammad Ali Elahi of the Islamic House of Wisdom in Dearborn Heights and has appeared in online photographs with the imam.

According to the report, Ali Elahi later held memorial services for Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei following U.S. military strikes that killed the Grand Ayatollah on Feb. 28.

Fox News reported that Ali Elahi described the strike on “our leader” as “evil,” carried out by “the most wretched hands on Earth.”

Religion has also become part of campaign discussions within Michigan’s Muslim community.

On July 17, an imam speaking at the American Muslim Diversity Association Masjid in Sterling Heights encouraged congregants to participate in the election while discussing what he described as “a legitimate Islamic objective.”

“When Allah will help you with your intention, the change will come,” the imam said in video highlighted by the Middle East Media Research Institute.

“We know that Rashida Tlaib – she is a sister … she’s representing us in Congress.”

He continued, “So we have a lot of things coming in our side, the tide is changing, we need to take advantage of that and get involved.”

“Abdul El-Sayed, if he gets elected, he’s going to be the first (Muslim) U.S. senator in the history of the United States.”

The imam also referenced the Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America.

“They recommend to vote to serve a legitimate Islamic objective.”

“This is the fatwa from AMJA.”

Trump Scraps Iran Strike After Iran Agrees to Peace Deal Framework [WATCH]

President Trump said Saturday night that he called off a planned US attack on Iran after Tehran and other Middle Eastern governments agreed to the framework of a potential peace deal. The decision came with a very clear warning attached, because this was not exactly a group hug at the United Nations.

In a Truth Social post, Trump made plain that American forces were not bluffing.

“The U.S.A. is locked and loaded and ready to go against the Islamic Republic of Iran, at levels of Military Terror, Strength, and Power not seen since World War II,” he wrote.

Trump said Iran and other governments in the region asked the United States “to hold off any attack” because “the perimeters of a deal has been agreed to.”

That is quite a change in tone from Tehran, which has spent years pretending threats and proxy chaos were a winning strategy.

According to the president, the proposed agreement would require the “Immediate, Complete, and Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT” and “an end to Iran’s nuclear threat.”

Those are not small asks, and they cut directly to the core of the regime’s favorite leverage points.

For Trump, the message was straightforward. Iran can choose a deal that benefits the region and preserves its own future, or it can test American firepower and find out whether Washington’s patience has truly run out.

“Based on this request, I have agreed, for the future benefit of the WORLD and, likewise, the survival of a successful and prosperous Iran, to cancel the attack,” Trump wrote.

He added that the decision depends on the parties being able to “rapidly make a DEAL.”

Trump also made clear that Israel is standing with him. “The Country of Israel joins me in this commitment,” he wrote, signaling that Jerusalem is part of the same pressure campaign and not drifting from Washington’s position.

WATCH:

The announcement landed one day after reports that American and Israeli planners were considering strikes on Iran’s energy infrastructure.

That possibility would have hit the regime where it hurts, which may explain why the suddenly diplomatic mood appeared in such convenient fashion.

Tehran had already warned that any strike on its energy sector would lead to retaliation against oil and gas facilities in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Israel.

In other words, the regime reached for its usual playbook, threaten everyone else’s stability when its own power structure feels pressure.

The region had been sliding toward a wider confrontation after Iran fired ballistic missiles toward US forces in Jordan earlier this week.

The attack marked a dangerous escalation in a conflict that had already been grinding on for five months.

US air defenses intercepted the missiles before American and Saudi forces answered with strikes on militia targets in Iraq linked to Tehran’s network.

US warplanes also resumed attacks inside Iran, putting the regime on notice that the days of cost free provocation may be over.

The latest fighting followed the collapse of a fragile June memorandum of understanding between Washington and Tehran.

That arrangement fell apart last month after Iranian attacks on commercial shipping in and around the Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway for global energy markets.

Administration officials have said that any renewed negotiations must begin with Iran agreeing to a ceasefire.

They also want Tehran to stop attacks on US forces, commercial shipping and America’s Gulf allies, which sounds like the bare minimum expected from a government that claims it wants peace.

Trump has continued to insist that the Strait of Hormuz remain open and that Tehran abandon its nuclear ambitions.

Those conditions are likely to remain the test of whether Iran is serious, or merely buying time while hoping the West falls for another round of diplomatic theater.

For a president who campaigned on strength abroad and restraint with American lives, the move fits a familiar Trump pattern.

He put the military option on the table, made sure everyone knew it was real, then paused when adversaries started moving toward terms.

The key question now is whether Iran follows through quickly, as Trump demanded.

If the regime tries to stall, spin or cheat, the president has already told the world that the United States is ready, and this time the mullahs may want to believe him.

From AIDS to COVID: Fauci’s Past Statements Spark Fresh Controversy [WATCH]

Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow is calling for renewed scrutiny of former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci, arguing that the longtime public health official should publicly answer questions about his role in shaping the federal response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

During a recent discussion, Marlow questioned why Fauci has not provided further public explanations for decisions made during the pandemic, despite previously saying he was prepared to defend his actions.

“If Fauci is not a criminal, why wouldn’t he explain himself as a public servant?” Marlow asked.

He argued that Fauci should be “serving the public now by answering these fundamental questions about why the things that controlled our lives-that had paddleboarders arrested off of the coast in California, that had our children locked away from their schools so that they would have mental health crises, learning setbacks, people losing their jobs, people losing their livelihoods over this.”

Marlow said the public deserves accountability because of the widespread impact of pandemic-era policies.

“How come he doesn’t need to be accountable to the public if he was such a great public servant?” he said.

As part of his argument, Marlow pointed to comments Fauci made in 2022, when the former health official said he would continue answering questions about his work.

Marlow quoted Fauci as saying, “I will always answer questions. I’m prepared to defend my positions, I will talk it through with curious minds who are in positions of power and influence.”

Marlow questioned why, in his view, that willingness is no longer evident.

“How come that is not applying now, when he’s already been pardoned by Big Joey Biden and his auto pen?” he said.

“So either the pardon is not legitimate, and that’s why he’s concerned, or the pardon is legitimate, and he needs to answer questions because he’s not going to incriminate himself anyway.”

According to Marlow, obtaining those answers remains important regardless of any legal issues surrounding the pardon.

“We just need to get answers because this can never happen again,” he said.

“People died, people suffered. America became a worse place because of this man, and he needs to be held to account.”

Marlow also argued that Fauci’s tenure before the COVID-19 pandemic deserves renewed examination.

He said the public should revisit Fauci’s handling of the AIDS epidemic during the early 1980s before introducing archival video of Fauci discussing AIDS transmission.

In the clip, Fauci said, “Brings in the implications that there are other ways, just plain close contact, and given the the long incubation period of this disease, we may be starting to see, as we’re seeing virtually as the months go by, other groups that can be involved, and and seeing it in children is really quite disturbing.”

When asked to elaborate, Fauci continued, “Well, for example, if if the close contact of a child as a household contact.

Perhaps there will be a certain number of cases of individuals who are just living with and in close contact with someone with AIDS or at risk of AIDS, who does not necessarily have to have intimate sexual contact or share a needle, but just the ordinary close contact that one sees in normal interpersonal relationships.”

WATCH:

After playing the clip, Marlow argued the comments reflected what he believes was a longstanding pattern in Fauci’s public messaging.

“That’s from 1983, and that’s a precursor to his ability to lie through his teeth about a pandemic, about a virus, because it’s not politically good for him,” Marlow said.

He continued by asserting, “We all know that AIDS tends to spread through gay sex and sharing needles, gay sex between males in particular, and he’s acting as though children could get it through the air and touch. That’s pandering to left-wing political people. It’s always been inside of him; it always has.”

Marlow argued that the issues surrounding Fauci should remain the subject of congressional oversight. He said lawmakers should continue investigating not only Fauci but also officials who worked under him during the pandemic.

“We should have known 40 years ago, but we know now,” Marlow said. “Now he needs to get held to account.”

He also questioned what consequences could follow future congressional proceedings.

“He’s going to be held in contempt of the Senate. Does that mean jail time?” Marlow asked.

“What about all the people who knew who were underneath him that this was the real Anthony Fauci? They need to be hauled in front of the Senate. They need to be held to account.”

Marlow concluded by urging lawmakers not to end their oversight efforts.

“This cannot stop,” he said.

“We need to push harder.”

If You Put Socialists in Power, They Will Literally Destroy America [WATCH]

Heritage Foundation senior fellow Nile Gardiner warned that Europe’s immigration policies are contributing to a growing crisis, arguing that recent events in Spain should serve as a warning for both European governments and the United States.

Gardiner made the remarks while discussing reports of a large influx of migrants arriving in Spanish territory.

He argued that the developments reflect the consequences of immigration policies adopted by Spain and other European governments.

“This is an absolute disaster for Europe,” Gardiner said.

He attributed the situation to immigration and domestic policies pursued by Spain’s government.

“And it’s the direct result of open borders, socialist, crazy policies.”

Gardiner also criticized Spain’s immigration enforcement, specifically pointing to the country’s legalization efforts.

“Frankly, including a mass amnesty for illegal immigrants in Spain.”

According to Gardiner, the recent influx is unlikely to remain an isolated event.

“You can be sure that if 50,000 migrants came into Spanish territory in one day yesterday, hundreds of 1000s more will seek to get in in the next few days.”

He predicted that migration pressures would continue to increase over time.

“Millions will seek to get in in the coming weeks and months.”

Gardiner argued that the developments in Spain should be viewed as a warning beyond Europe.

“This is without a doubt.”

“It’s a huge warning to the United States.”

He said Americans should closely watch the outcome of European immigration policies as debate over border security continues in the United States.

Gardiner contended that similar policies implemented in the United States would produce comparable results.

“If you put socialists in power, they will literally destroy America.”

“They will destroy the United States.”

According to Gardiner, an expansion of similar policies would include changes to immigration enforcement.

“They’ll open the borders.”

He concluded by warning that the United States could experience scenes similar to those unfolding in Europe if voters support leaders who advocate those policies.

“And we will see these kinds of disastrous scenes unfolding here in America if the American people allow the socialists to take power.”

WATCH:

Gardiner’s remarks come as immigration remains a major political issue on both sides of the Atlantic, with European governments continuing to debate border security, asylum policy, and enforcement measures while U.S. lawmakers remain divided over immigration reform and border enforcement.

You Can Fight for Your Guns Now, or Your Life Later: Europe Chose Wrong, America Beware [WATCH]

Newsmax host Carl Higbie criticized European immigration policies, arguing they have placed financial burdens on taxpayers, weakened national sovereignty, and contributed to what he described as cultural and public safety challenges in several countries.

During his remarks, Higbie also defended free speech protections, the Second Amendment, and what he described as the importance of preserving Western culture.

Higbie began by arguing that people should not face criminal penalties for expressing controversial opinions.

“Now, agree or disagree with what someone is saying outside of physical threats. Nobody should go to jail for hate speech,” Higbie said.

He then criticized European governments for expanding social welfare programs while accepting large numbers of migrants.

“But Europe then raises taxes to pay for these huge social nets that these migrants, many of which have subpar average IQs, no skills. Honestly, many have no will to work, and native Europeans have to pay more in taxes.”

Higbie argued that the burden falls on working taxpayers.

“So the guy praying to Allah in the street who happens to be blocking traffic for the European trying to get to that job for that wage that is taxed that is being stolen to give to that person in the first place, ruining their country, ruining their culture and their customs.”

He added, “I mean, well done, Europe. Really, seriously, guys.”

Higbie also criticized European firearm laws and tax policies.

“You Europeans are now unarmed, then thus able unable to defend yourself, unable to speak out against it, and all their disposable income has been confiscated via taxes to fund the very invasion that they’re now getting destroyed by.”

Turning to the United States, Higbie questioned why he believes some Americans continue to support similar immigration policies.

“You paying attention yet, Libs? Apparently not, because you still don’t get it.”

He referenced comments made on social media by the Krasenstein brothers regarding migrants seeking better lives.

“One of the brain trusts on the left, the Krasenstein brothers, tweeted out today: ‘Well, these people will merely want the best life for themselves and their families, just like everybody on this planet, the fact that so many conservatives, so and so-called Christians, are attacking them is disgusting.'”

Higbie challenged that argument.

“They are. Where are all the women and children, Brian? I didn’t see that in any of those.”

He continued, “If they’re fleeing for a better life, where are their families or their luggage?”

Higbie also referenced recent unrest in Spain.

“They’re not looking for a better life because within the first 24 hours they landed in Spain, they destroyed the city they entered.”

He argued Spain should have taken a different approach at its border.

“Spain should have used lethal force at their border, but now they’re inside the gates. There’s nothing they can do.”

“They aren’t even deporting these people.”

Higbie then pointed to the scale of migration.

“As many as 100,000 in a day. I mean, what would that do to your town?”

He compared those figures to immigration during former President Joe Biden’s administration.

“Some towns in Texas and Arizona actually saw this under Biden, led in 20 million people over his presidency.”

Higbie used those claims to explain his continued support for the Second Amendment.

“This is why I always say any government that wants to take away your guns is probably about to do something that you might consider shooting them over.”

He added, “You can fight your way, you know, even fight for your guns now, or you can fight for your life later when a foreign invader tries to break through your window in the middle of the night, like over in Spain, because your government didn’t keep its promise to protect you.”

Higbie argued that America’s constitutional protections were designed with those concerns in mind.

“It’s almost like our founding fathers came from Europe and knew they would do something stupid like this, then that’s why we have a First Amendment, a Second Amendment, a Fourth Amendment.”

He questioned how much evidence would be needed to change public opinion.

“I mean, how much pain and suffering and I told you so speeches is it going to take to make these people learn that this is not a matter of coexisting?”

“This is a fight for Western culture as we know it.”

Higbie said he believes the cultural values of many migrants conflict with those of Western nations.

“The views these people have who are invading us are antithetical to literally everything we stand for.”

He also expressed concern about long-term demographic trends.

“And when they get in the majority, which they will, because they’re breeding at a rate 4x what the native Europeans and even Americans are, in 100 years there will be no West if we don’t get it.”

Higbie praised Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s immigration policies.

“Italy does. Their prime minister was like, ‘No way, we’re not doing this.'”

“Said we will not yield an inch on this.”

“That’s the only acceptable response.”

He contrasted that with Spain.

“But Spain, Spain’s lost.”

“And since they wouldn’t let us even land our planes there in the Iran campaign, I say you guys are on your own.”

“Shouldn’t get any help from us.”

Higbie concluded by encouraging people to defend their national identity and traditions.

“We should use these as examples to make sure that the message is carried over, that these people understand that what they’re doing is so detrimental to their lifestyle, to their country, to their people, to their culture.”

“It’s okay to fight for your culture, and somehow, in the midst of all this left smokescreen, people stop doing that because they were ashamed of it.”

“Should never be ashamed of your own culture.”

“You should always be proud to fight for it.”

“That’s why I put on the uniform.”

He ended by expressing hope that more people would pay attention to the issue.

“I just hope that these people wake up, and I hope that this is reported loud enough that people understand.”

“Well, stay strapped, America.”

Georgia Mom Battles Alleged Child Snatcher with Gas Pump in Terrifying Video [WATCH]

A Georgia mother turned a midnight stop for gas into a fight for her children when police say a shirtless man tried to yank them from the family vehicle at a Shell station in Marietta.

Newly released surveillance video obtained by FOX 5 Atlanta shows the frightening encounter unfold as the woman was pumping gas last week, a routine moment that suddenly became every parent’s worst nightmare.

Police later identified the suspect as 30 year old Jerahn Tucker, who was seen approaching the vehicle barefoot and without a shirt before the situation quickly spiraled.

Marietta Police Department Public Information Officer Charles McPhilamy said Tucker initially spoke with the mother, but that brief exchange did not stay calm for long.

“He appears to charge at the car,” McPhilamy said. “He’s trying to open the car doors. He’s trying to pull the child out of the back seat.”

According to a warrant cited by FOX 5 Atlanta, the mother told investigators Tucker claimed he had a gun before becoming aggressive.

That detail only adds to the terror of a mother standing between her children and a man police say was trying to get inside her vehicle.

The surveillance footage shows one of the children jumping out of the vehicle and running around it as Tucker chased after him.

At another point, Tucker opened the rear passenger door while another child was still inside.

That is when the mother grabbed the gas pump hose and used it as a barrier, keeping Tucker away from her children while the situation unfolded in real time.

It was fast thinking, raw instinct, and the kind of parental backbone that no criminal should ever underestimate.

“What is this individual capable of?” McPhilamy said.

“What are they doing? Why are they trying to get in my own car? What are they doing? Trying to pull children out of the car.”

Two bystanders then rushed in to help, dropping what they were carrying and moving toward the chaos instead of away from it.

Someone called 911, and the combined response from the mother and witnesses helped keep the suspect from getting what police say he was after.

The video shows Tucker eventually getting into his own vehicle and driving away from the gas station.

Officers stopped him a short distance away and took him into custody.

“The actions of the mother and everyone on the scene, their ability to remain calm under pressure and push him away, get him away from the children, get a hold of us so that we can get to the area allowed us to hold this individual accountable,” McPhilamy told the station.

Tucker remains in the Cobb County Jail on charges that include kidnapping and simple assault.

Authorities have not released a possible motive for the alleged attack.

The case is a brutal reminder that danger does not always announce itself with warning signs and flashing lights.

Sometimes it walks up in the middle of the night at a gas station while a mother is doing something as ordinary as filling up the family car.

For parents, the footage is hard to watch because it captures the split second decisions that can separate safety from catastrophe.

This mother did not freeze, did not wait for someone else to solve the problem, and did not surrender her children to panic.

The bystanders who jumped in also deserve credit, especially in an age when too many people reach for a phone before reaching to help.

Their response helped buy precious time until officers could track down the suspect.

Police say the actions at the scene made it possible to hold Tucker accountable, and that is exactly what the public expects when a family is attacked in a place where ordinary people should be safe.

A gas station should not become a hunting ground for predators.

The investigation continues, and the motive remains unclear, but the video already tells a powerful story.

A mother saw a threat, grabbed what she had, and fought back with everything between her children and a nightmare.
