Ted Cruz Slams Ilhan Omar For Somali-Only Rally In Minneapolis

Far-left House Rep. Ilhan Omar held a rally in Minneapolis, MN, in which she rallied for the interests of the country.

Unfortunately, that country was Somalia, rather than the United States.

Rep. Omar held her entire rally in Somali with the country’s former Prime Minister even making a speech in front of hundreds of attendees. In fact, Hassan Ali Khaire even claimed that Rep. Omar’s interests “aren’t those of Minnesota or the American people, but those of Somalia.”

Later that day. Former PM Khaire met with Rep. Mohamud Noor, Rep. Hodan Hassan and Minneapolis Council Member Jamal Osman to urge voters not to vote for a black or white candidate over the incumbent.

Rep. Omar’s electorate is three-fifths white and covers a population of just over 700,000. As a member of The Squad – a group of far-left Democrats in Congress – Omar has come under criticism for her controversial statements which saw her removed from the Foreign Affairs Committee in 2023.

Her latest controversy drew blowback once again from critics, including Texas Sen. Ted Cruz who described the rally as “stunning”.

Sen. Cruz saw much support for calling out Omar’s event, which did not even feature American flags despite her ongoing re-election campaign.

One commenter noted how the remarks could amount to treason.

Omar has not been confirmed as the Democrat’s candidate for Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District in November’s elections, with Don Samuels also vying for the nomination. The winner will face Republican Party candidate Dalia al-Aqidi in the Democratic stronghold.

“I feel violated” – Woman Describes Moment Male Employee Allegedly Walked In Female Locker Room At Planet Fitness

Woke gym franchise Planet Fitness has been slammed after a woman claimed she was confronted by a male employee in the women’s locker rooms.

The nationwide gym group has come under heavy fire in recent months after it banned Patricia Silva who filmed a biological man (also known as a “man”) shaving in the women’s locker rooms back in March. The subsequent outrage prompted a large-scale boycott of Planet Fitness, with the incident in Fairbanks, Alaska, causing a “fairly significant” drop in new memberships.

On Friday, June 28, a similar incident was reported by TikTok user Tiff. In the video, Tiff described the moment she was changing in the women’s locker room when a male walked in.

“I was changing, I was topless, I look over and a man that works at the f****** gym is coming out of the women’s restroom,” Tiff said. “He looked at me and we made eye contact,” she continued before breaking down into tears.

“I did not have a shirt on, I did not have a bra, and I just feel really violated that he saw me,” Tiff added.

When reporting the incident to the front desk, staff allegedly told her to calm down as if they believed the issue was “not a big deal”.

When the TikTok video was reshared on X, many were critical of Planet Fitness, with one calling for it to be bankrupted.

Others offered a sense of solidarity with the victim.

Like Tiff, some also highlighted Planet Fitness’ summer-long promotion offering free access to teenagers.

America’s Wokest Hospital Holds Pride Parades, Claims Racism Causes Obesity

Last month, a clip from the woke medical drama New Amsterdam claimed a child’s tumor had been caused by racism.

The canceled show drew ridicule from many online who were perplexed by the unique medical diagnosis offered by the doctor in the clip.

However, it seems as if fiction has become reality after Lurie’s Children’s Hospital of Chicago posted an article claiming a link between exposure to racism and metabolic health issues, such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Lurie Children’s also advocates the need for “crucial conversations” about racism during the early stages of a child’s life, as well as the need for a “thorough understanding of the systemic nature of racism”.

Of course, the “extensive research” is seldom mentioned following the initial claim, so it’s not quite clear how those who are subject to racism from life’s bigots are more likely to be fat.

Lurie’s Children’s Hospital also posted a video of children participating in LGBTQ pride celebrations on their Twitter account.

It’s safe to say users on social media were also confused.

A lot of commenters were critical of the hospital’s pro-pride policy, with many sharing a link to a clip of the hospital’s pride parade.

The minute-long video, or #MoodBoosterMonday as it’s called, features rainbow waving staff marching through the hospital before taking pictures with young patients.

Given the divisions the pride agenda causes, it begs belief as to why the hospital would permit and publicize a pride parade on its social media outlets. One user even called for an investigation into Lurie’s practices.

Is this America’s wokest hospital? Let us know in the comments below.

Montana Glaciers Still Thriving Despite Warnings Of Them Melting By 2020

It’s 2024, meaning it’s four years since the glaciers in Montana were supposed to have melted.

A historic photo from Glacier National Park on the Canada-United States border highlights a claim that the glaciers “will be all gone by the year 2020”.

“The small alpine glaciers present today started forming about 7,000 years ago and reached their maximum in size and number around 1850, at the end of the Little Ice Age,” the sign claimed. “They are now rapidly shrinking due to human-caused climate change. Computer models indicate the glaciers will be all gone by the year 2020”. Spoiler alert: they’re still there.

The post by the X account @EndWokeness prompted debate among social media users, with some calling climate change “a hoax”.

Others noted the apparent moving of goal posts, with repeated warnings of climate change effects (thankfully) never coming to fruition.

The arguments raise interesting points. While there’s evidence that the average temperature of earth has risen with advancements in industrialization, it’s impossible to pinpoint how much human activity has contributed to it. When scientists repeatedly portray a doomsday-style argument, it can be hard for the public to believe them after so many incorrect predictions.

Likewise, it’s also difficult for the average person to truly make a comprehensible difference in reducing their carbon footprint. Nations such as China continue to produce without due regard for worldwide efforts to protect the planet, while world leaders and celebrities continue to use private jets for commutes which could be completed by public transport.

Venezuelan Crime Rate Falling As Thousands Flock Across Southern Border

A significant drop in Venezuelan crime rates has been linked to the migration of nationals away from the bankrupt state that doesn’t want those fleeing to come up (which tells you all you need to know about their character).

The Daily Mail reports that violent deaths in the socialist nation have dropped to a 22-year low despite being hell on earth. Homicides in Caracas dropped by a quarter from 2022 to 2023, with 27 murders per 100,000 people. Seven years prior, the rate was more than triple that figure at 92 homicides per 100,000.

Venezuela’s dismal economic prosperity have forced criminal gangs elsewhere with individuals and businesses unable to afford ransoms or protection money. While the Venezuelan government has cracked down on high-profile criminal groups, many have relocated across to the continent and to the U.S., where some crimes have been linked to the infamous Tren de Aragua gang, for example.

The number of Venezuelans in the U.S. has risen considerably under the Joe Biden administration. In 2018, there 394,000 Venezuelan nations in the country; by 2022, that figure had risen to 668,000.

The President has come under heavy criticism for his open border policy. The official Border Patrol Union has repeatedly distanced itself from a president who withdrew much of predecessor Donald Trump’s strict immigration policy, while anger directed at the White House has been fueled by repeated instances of migrant crime.

Some noted other examples where crime had fallen, including El Salvador.

The Biden administration has notably shifted its immigration policy in recent months ahead of November’s presidential election. An executive order was issued on June 5, 2024, to curb migrant numbers, while construction of former president Donald Trump’s border wall resumed in October 2023.

Great News For Donald Trump: Joe Biden Is Staying In The Race

Joe Biden’s campaign insists he is remaining in the race for the Presidential Election despite a dismal performance in the first televised debate of 2024.

In what many believed to be Biden’s best opportunity to disprove Republican claims over his competency to serve in the White House, the President stumbled and bumbled his way through much to the ridicule of many on social media.

The Democrat’s performance was even questioned on the night by Republican rival Donald Trump, who hilariously stated at one point that he “didn’t really know” what the 81-year-old was saying in response to a question over immigration, adding that Biden himself probably doesn’t know what he’s saying either.

Biden’s failure to surpass the low expectations set prior to the debate on Thursday, June 27, prompted many to consider whether there was still time for the Democrats to find a replacement prior to the party convention in August.

Despite that, the Biden campaign is staying in the race:

For reasons unclear to most of us, the Biden campaign maintains his ability to run and serve as President, and confirmed he will take part in the next scheduled debate on Tuesday, September 10.

Many, including Democrats, remain skeptical, with some alluding to Biden’s persistence as a positive for former president Trump.

Others noted how the President’s poor showing had been heavily criticized by mainstream media outlets.

Rumors of a potential successor have ranged from Biden loyalist and Governor of California Gavin Newsom to Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro. That said, social media commenters had other ideas as to who may be disappointed.

What’s your opinion? Should the Democrats drop Biden for someone else or let him stay in the race? Let us know in the comments.

Texas Mother Says She Was Denied Boarding United Flight After “Misgendering” Flight Attendant

A parent, her 16-month-old son and her 75-year-old mother were denied boarding onto a flight after allegedly using the “wrong” pronoun for a flight attendant.

Jenna Longoria, known online as The Period Guru, said she was left stranded in San Francisco, CA, after being ejected from her United Airlines flight home to Austin, TX for a “hate crime.”

Longoria uploaded a vlog from the airport in which she said her luggage – which contained her thyroid medication – had been taken on the plane.

“I was speaking to a flight attendant and got their pronouns wrong,” she told social media viewers.

Another flight attendant interjected, and despite Longoria’s apologies, she was refused onboard.

“I’m not very verse with pronouns. I was holding my son, he was having a temper tantrum, I had the car seat on my back – I wasn’t really focusing on anything except getting my son’s car seat on the flight and getting him comfortable and safe,” she added.

Longoria uploaded a follow-up nearly 24 hours later, saying she was home “after a very long day of travel” and was “still in shock”.

United Airlines claimed that the party of three were not allowed to board “following a discussion about having too many carry-on items”, according to local media.

Reaction to Longoria’s circumstances was largely critical of the airline, including from one parent of a transgender “son.”

Others suggested Longoria take legal action.

The case follows a somewhat woke week for aviation following reported guidance for politically correct terms to be used by airline pilots.

CNN Commentator Implies Joe Biden Knew “Questions Were Coming” Ahead Of Disastrous Debate

CNN’s presidential debate will forever be remembered as a disastrous night for President Joe Biden.

The presumptive Democratic nominee had a low bar after years of criticism over his declining physical and mental ability. Despite this, it’s fair to say he still fell short of barely-existent expectations.

Even the Democrat-friendly CNN were critical of Biden’s performance, with commentators in the post-debate analysis referencing the DNC’s internal ‘panic’. One, Erin Burnett, was particularly skeptical of the President given that he knew “every one of these questions is coming”, implying that he had been given the questions beforehand.

“He goes through six days of preparation, a camp day, more than that. And they know the rules,” Burnett added. “He practices with the mics. He knows every one of these questions is coming, and yet he couldn’t fill the time.”

Check it out:

The clip prompted reaction from many at the unsurprising bias towards Biden.

Another responded how Biden’s performance demonstrated a rare moment of national unity.

Questions were also raised as to whether the Democrats were seeking to replace Biden in time for November’s election.

Whether Thursday’s debate has ultimately changed the election result will always remain a mystery. That said, if Trump was predicted to win, he’s almost certain to now.

Biden had one job: to appear competent – and he couldn’t even keep up a façade for an hour and a half.

Border Patrol Union Denies False Joe Biden Endorsement Claim

The official union of U.S. border control has denied a false claim by President Joe Biden in the first presidential debate of 2024.

CNN’s 90-minute debate on Thursday, June 27, was dominated by the President’s incapability to present a strong, coherent argument after years of criticism over his mental capacity. However, there was also a war-of-words over immigration and border security – an issue of heightened sensitivity following the alleged murder of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray earlier in the month by two illegal immigrants.

Having come under heavy fire in recent months with just three in 10 American approving the administration’s approach to immigration, Biden sought to fight back on Thursday night by claiming he had received an endorsement from the U.S. Border Patrol. “By the way the border patrol endorsed me, endorsed my position. In addition to that, we found ourselves in a situation…” Biden claimed.

That claim was false, as the Border Patrol is a federal agency which cannot endorse candidates.

Biden may have been referring to the National Border Patrol Council – the official union which represents border staff. However, they too denied the endorsement with a short but effective post on X, adding that not only have had they never endorsed Biden, they never will in the future either.

Social media users responded with high praise for the union.

The Border Patrol Union provided further criticism of the President prior to the debate for his comments regarding Congressional Republicans. “In reality, Republicans have actually funded more agents in recent appropriations bills in spite of Biden—not because of him,” the union said before complimenting Trump.

What’s your view? Has the Biden administration done a good job at the border, or is Trump the man to crackdown on immigration? Let us know in the comments below.

Video Shows Moment Fans With Palestine Flags Are Booed Out Of Baltimore Orioles Game

Pro-Palestinian kooks were ejected from a baseball game to loud boos from fellow spectators on Wednesday.

The three “fans” made their support for the Hamas-led regime known at the Baltimore Orioles-Cleveland Guardians at Camden Yards, with two of the protesters holding flags with “Free Palestine” painted across them. (Of note; freeing the Palestinians from Hamas certainly would be worthwhile – but that’s not what any of these people are calling for).

Video footage shows the moment they were ejected to boos and jeers from paying spectators, some of whom hurled insults as they were forced out of the stadium:

Outside of college campuses, nobody wants to listen to them.

The Orioles later released a statement to the Baltimore Sun, which noted the “displaying of political signage” as a violation of the franchise’s policy. The statement added that the protesters were “not seated in their ticketed seats and [were] inciting fans in the surrounding area”.

Many on social media noted the reaction from fellow spectators, with one calling for pro-Palestinian supporters to stick to college campuses.

Others argued that such demonstrations could harm support for their cause, rather than bolster it.

It begs the question as to why these people bother, given that their actions only upset those in attendance and are subject to ridicule in the ensuing viral aftermath…
