Revealed: El-Sayed Proclaimed 'Obligation'
To Follow Sharia Law Until the Day He Dies

Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed once declared his sacred "obligation" to follow Sharia law in every aspect of his life until he meets his maker on the day he dies, according to unearthed comments he made to the New York Times in 2009 as a young man buying his first home. "Ultimately, the question is, when I die and I stand before God and go through everything I did in my life, I don't want to say I did it the easy way instead of the Shariah-compliant way. Not because of fear but because of obligation," said El-Sayed,
Trump Admin: No More Medicaid Dollars

There are good reasons why minors, generally regarded as people under the age of 18, aren't allowed to do certain things. They generally lack the judgement, the moral clarity, and the experience to make certain decisions. That is why they cannot sign contracts, buy firearms or a bottle of booze, or vote. The left, on the other hand, seems perfectly all right with minors making one class of irreversible decision: "Gender-affirming" medical treatments. Now, though, the Trump administration has slammed the door on a source of funding for this, as the Medicaid program will no longer pay for these treatments. American taxpayers will no longer be on the hook for child sex-change

There have been lots of bizarre primary results around the country–mostly on the Democrat side, to be fair–but it looks like here in Minnesota, reason has prevailed. Lisa Demuth, the Speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives, has been called as the winner of the Republican primary for governor. Results here. This is notable because Mike Lindell, the My Pillow guy, was also in the race, and he was endorsed by Donald Trump. Trump’s endorsement was, frankly, idiotic. Lindell hadn’t the faintest qualifications to be governor, and if he had gotten the nomination, he would have been crushed by Amy Klobuchar

The late, great Margaret Thatcher once observed, “The trouble with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.” That is what New York City Democrats are going to do if they persist in their outrageous new taxation plan. At some point either this year or next year, thousands of wealthy homeowners in New York City are set to pay the pied-à-terre tax on “non-primary” homes worth over $1 million. The threat of the tax has already driven more people to rent instead of buying property, and has also encouraged the ongoing problem of top-tier taxpayers leaving the lefty state. This concerns Donald Trump,

Former Trump attorney-turned-anti-Trump crazy person Ty Cobb joined CNN OutFront host Erin Burnett on Monday to compare a photo of new Attorney General Todd Blanche in the Oval Office with President Trump and others to Hitler, “Himmler, Goring, and Goebbels.” As if that was not wild enough, Cobb would also baselessly speculate Blanche will rig the upcoming midterms for Trump by seizing voting machines and working with Speaker Mike Johnson to refuse to give up power. Burnett reacted to a video put out by the White House of Blanche’s swearing in by observing, “The man swearing him in is now Judge Emil Bove.

MS NOW via SnapStream An Iranian assassination plot against President Trump was apparently so credible that while leaving the NATO summit in Turkey last month, the Secret Service deemed it necessary to play a shell game with Air Force One and spirited away the President to a different Air Force plane. However, to the leftist extremists of MS NOW, it was rollicking affair. During the handoff between Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O’Donnell’s The Last Word Monday night, the two laughed about situation and reveled in how Trump “lost complete control in this story.”“I am very pleased,” Maddow proclaimed

Former Mossad chief Yossi Cohen revealed Tuesday that Israeli spies had “toured” Iran’s heavily fortified Fordow nuclear site “many times” to understand the underground facility before its eventual destruction by U.S. forces — offering a striking glimpse into the depth of Israel’s intelligence penetration of the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program. “We toured the Fordow nuclear site many times in order to understand the site,” Cohen, who led Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency from 2016 to 2021, said at the Galilee Conference in northern Israel.

Host Peter Alexander said, “The president has had a hard time getting his SAVE America Act effort through. We’ve heard a lot on this conversation as it relates to voting restrictions. He wants to pass it through Congress. He doesn’t have the votes right now.” After playing a clip of Trump discussing the midterms, Alexander asked, “Your reaction to that? A lot of fear about what may happen ahead of these midterms.” Brennan said, “I think we all should be very worried

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) said he will not campaign against Sen. Dave McCormick (R-PA) if his fellow Pennsylvania senator seeks reelection in 2030. Fetterman made clear that his friendship with McCormick would keep him from working to defeat the Republican, though he stopped short of promising an endorsement. “Well, I would absolutely never move against my friend,” Fetterman told the Washington Examiner. Fetterman called McCormick a “great guy” before repeating his position. “I would never, ever move against my friend,” he said. The pledge marks a change from the 2024 Senate race, when Fetterman backed then-Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA)

The race between Democratic Socialist Francesca Hong and Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley to serve as the Democratic nominee for Wisconsin governor remained too close to call late Tuesday evening. Heading into Election Day, polls widely favored Hong, a controversial ultra-progressive chef and state lawmaker who previously called for abolishing the police and Thanksgiving. However, Hong underperformed in early returns on Tuesday evening, creating a closer-than-expected race. By 10 p.m. local time on Tuesday evening, both candidates had received roughly 39.9 percent of the vote each, with an estimated 82 percent of votes counted. The winner of the Democratic primary will take on Congressman Tom Tiffany, a Trump-backed Republican,

Six states go to the polls today in primaries and a special election. One state may ring a death knell for Democrat hopes for significant gains in this midterm cycle, and Democrats have finally begun to realize it. Unless the polls miss as badly in Wisconsin as pollsters performed in Michigan, Francesca Hong will win the Democrat nomination for governor tonight. She'll have to compete against Rep. Tom Tiffany, who has spent the last few weeks practically salivating at the prospect. The Wall Street Journal reports this morning that Democrats "inside and outside Wisconsin" are experiencing a very different gastric reaction to this outcome: The 37-year-old state representative and part-time bartender,

President Donald Trump is leaving the door open to declaring a national security emergency over the 2026 midterm elections, stating Monday that "stranger things have happened." Conservative commentator and Real America's Voice host Wayne Allyn Root made the suggestion in an interview, noting that it could be done if the Senate fails to pass the SAVE America Act when it returns from its recess next month. The host commented that if the president does declare a national security emergency and federalize the elections, then he would get everything he wanted without needing the Senate's assistance.

Black bishop and author Earl Walker Jackson, a descendant of enslaved ancestors, is criticizing the Smithsonian National Museum of American History for what he said amounts to anti-American "indoctrination" against the "greatest nation on earth." Although his great-grandparents were enslaved, Jackson believes that "if you were born an American, you hit the proverbial lottery because you have more opportunity and hope than any people living anywhere else on the planet." In an interview with Fox News Digital, Jackson said the latest controversy over what the White House described as the Smithsonian’s woke "ideological capture" angered him because of what he views as smears against the U.S.

Certain opinions are no longer treated as debatable; they are treated as evidence of bigotry or harm. Institutions that once managed disagreement now police belief, and dissent is answered not with argument but with consequences a person can feel: a lost job, a withdrawn invitation, a name circulated as a warning to others. Nowhere has the shift been more thorough than in higher education. University offices created to enforce civil rights law grew into administrative empires devoted to reshaping thought and policing dissent. Many universities began requiring faculty candidates to submit "diversity statements" —

Michigan’s far-left Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed is facing fresh scrutiny after a video resurfaced showing the progressive candidate taking aim at one of America’s most beloved sports. “Football is very much associated with a particularly masculine and, oftentimes, toxically masculine culture.

That’s part of the sport,” El-Sayed declared in a February 2023 podcast released shortly before the Super Bowl, according to The Washington Times.

I can’t bring myself to call this person a woman, so I won’t. I’ll instead use plural pronouns.

What is surfacing now, five years later, is a stronger understanding of just how the establishment medical complex determined the safety and efficacy protocols of the COVID-19 vaccination. They had theories, they had speculation, they had scientific discussion; but ultimately, they did not know to what extent the vaccine was safe – and statistically it wasn’t safe. Looking back on recent history, the COVID experience stands out. The lessons from observing the government’s response, and how people reacted to it, have influenced our perspective on many topics related to liberty and freedom.

If the sociology of education were a bona fide academic field, the saga of Jason Arday would provide material for innumerable Ph.D.s. Cambridge University hired Arday to teach the subject. John has follwed the Arday saga in posts here and here. The Cambidge dons who hired Arday somehow overlooked the indicia of fraud that permeate his thesis and his account of himself. He is a fraud of which Europe has not seen the likes since the heyday of George Psalmanazar in the eighteenth century. However, the credulity of the Cambridge dons is much funnier than that of Psalmanazar’s audience or, more recently, that on which Carlos Castaneda played in

Democratic Gov. Maura Healey was met with applause and smiles as she signed away Massachusetts' gestational limits on abortion, making the deep-blue state the 10th to permit the procedure up to birth. Under the Prioritizing Patient Access to Care Act, health care workers will have greater discretion in determining whether to perform an abortion later in pregnancy, without facing legal penalties under the state's previous restrictions. Healey said the law is intended to ensure families facing medical complications late in pregnancy can abort their babies in Massachusetts rather than having to travel out of state. Those complications can include maternal health complications and fatal diagnoses.
