Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) has claimed that criminal illegal immigrants are not a threat to the United States but rather Trump supporters and white supremacists.

During an appearance on MSNBC on Saturday, Crockett switched the blame from the problems plaguing cities like Springfield, Ohio on MAGA supporters.

Apparently Crockett isn’t willing to believe that Haitians are “eating the cats” – but more than willing to believe some elusive Trump supporters are. 

Crockett said: “He said that we’ve got these cities and these towns that are being overrun by gangs and the crime—I absolutely agree. Guess what? It’s the MAGA gang…. It is the white supremacists that have decided to descend upon places such as Springfield, Ohio.”

The Democrat stressed her belief that Trump and his supporters are the ones causing significant problems in these communities, adding, “The problems are him and his minions.”

She went on to criticize Trump for failing to call out white supremacists.

“I agree that there are problems in our communities, but usually, it’s some white supremacists on the other side, and he has yet to call them out.”

Rep. Jasmine Crockett: We do have a problem of gangs overrunning towns and cities. I absolutely agree with that. But guess what? It's the MAGA gang and the white supremacists. It's not the illegal immigrants who have come to make our economy stronger.pic.twitter.com/Nvrhy0lTwt

The remarks conveniently left out the rising concerns over violent crimes committed by gangs linked to illegal immigration, such as the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, which has now been designated as a terrorist organization by texas Governor Greg Abbott.

The Abandon Harris campaign gathered in Dearborn on Wednesday for “a great announcement” with Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein. “Our demands were simple,” director Hassan Habdel Salam said, flanked by supporters toting “Abandon Harris” and “Abandon Genocide” signs. “A permanent unconditional ceasefire, and a full arms embargo.”

Salam detailed how the campaign repeatedly reached out to President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and the Democratic Party to understand the concerns of Muslim and Arab voters disgusted with the current administration’s handling of Hamas’ war against Israel. “Again and again, silence from the (Biden-Harris) administration,” he said.

The situation culminated with an endorsement of Stein on the eve of Hamas’ Oct. 7 that sparked the ongoing conflict, and Wednesday’s press conference to explain why the campaign opted for a third-party endorsement. “As we went through the campaign, the White House sent their surrogates and a message from the president telling us that we were experiencing a tantrum,” Salam said. “And today that tantrum is a mountain as we set course.

Sharing platform Reddit has removed a popular forum that focuses on the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

The “Thomas Crooks” subreddit was banned for supposedly violating Reddit’s rules against posting violent content.

The assassination attempt against Trump occurred on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, which ended with the death of Thomas Crooks by Secret Service snipers.

The shooting has now become one of the most historical events in United States history and will likely be discussed for years to come, but not on Reddit.

Reddit’s decision to ban the topic has raised concerns about its limits on free speech.

The now-defunct subreddit had been a hub for users seeking answers and sharing information about the incident, The Post Millenial’s Katie Daviscourt reported.

Discussion on the forum ranged from speculation about potential Secret Service security failures to theories of it being an inside job.

Unsurprisingly, Reddit has failed to provide specific examples of the offending material for the ban.

It’s the kind of story that calls up musical numbers like “Anything you can do, I can do better!” Or maybe the apocryphal quote from Ginger Rogers is more apt, the one about doing everything Fred Astaire did, but “backwards in heels.”

What kind of footwear was Commander Yvonne Gray wearing when she scuttled a $100 million New Zealand battleship? What, if anything, was she doing backward? 

The British lesbian (we’re assured this characteristic is super-very-important in military exercises) was on her first ship command at the helm of the HMNZS Manawanui when the vessel went down on Saturday October 5. The ship ran aground on a reef off the coast of Samoa and caught fire. The crew saw smoke that morning at about 6:30, and by 9 a.m. local time the Manawanui had slipped beneath the surface of the ocean. All of the 75 crew aboard were rescued. 

The New Zealand Navy has started an investigation, of course, but it will take time to figure out all the factors that went into the ship’s loss. 

Commander Gray is said to have been inexperienced, and many people are calling her a diversity hire. Now, there’s nothing about being a lesbian that automatically signals “unfit to command a ship.” But it is true that unqualified people have been placed in senior positions of government and corporations over the past several years because they ticked a diversity box: woman, gay, trans, not-white, etc. This is just plain true, and everyone knows it. 

Indeed, much hoopla was made about Gray’s ascension to command—she’s a former teacher whose dream was to open a restaurant—as a “queer woman.” Here’s just one example of the exuberant, gushing, and dare we say, feminine, praise of women in the New Zealand military simply because they are women. 

Even if the investigation determines that Commander Gray acted appropriately and was not responsible for the $100 million disaster, it’s not going to be possible to stop tongues wagging. People are so fed up with incompetent minorities being elevated to positions of power, while competent people are called “racist” and “bigoted” for pointing it out, that no one has any rational reason to trust investigations that find no fault. After all, these agencies and military branches are obviously hiring to fill diversity quotas; why would anyone believe a word they say? 

It’s already starting on social media. 

And some of it is funny as hell. 

Let’s see what others have to say. 

Sorry, but the old guy here is right. 

It’s amazing how closely modern life resembles parodies from 50 years ago. 

A North Carolina mayor has slammed Vice President Kamala Harris for lying about FEMA efforts to assist residents following the catastrophic hurricane Helene.

Newland Mayor Derek Roberts, whose daughter’s house was destroyed by the hurricane, revealed she was denied the $750 FEMA payment.

“My daughter, whose house got completely wiped out – she has no flood insurance – meets with a FEMA person, applies for everything, doesn’t get the $750 that Kamala says she’s supposed to get. Gets approved for $300 for personal items. What is that gonna do?” Roberts asked in outrage.

More than a week after the storm made landfall, officials are still struggling to keep up with relief requests.

According to Blaze TV’s Glenn Beck, who spoke with FEMA sources, officials are more interested in shutting down makeshift helicopter rescue runs than helping stranded residents.

“Her entire first floor is literally wiped out,” Roberts continued as he described his adult daughter’s ordeal.

“Everything hauled everything off. So where is FEMA?”

The news comes as hurricane Milton heads towards Florida.

On Wednesday, Joe Biden announced plans to delay overseas travel, appearing to acknowledge the political damage being done to Harris and Democrats.
