Yesterday‚ when college youth were protesting on behalf of Hamas and Karl Marx‚ when UCLA moved on to extreme violence‚ a moment in history was ignored. On April 30‚ 1789‚ Washington gave his first inaugural speech. Washington’s leadership was critical to America’s founding and survival. Before he spoke‚ citizens gathered by the hundreds around New […] The post The Moment in History You Missed Yesterday appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

On Tuesday‚ Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) traded barbs over the protests that have sprouted up at U.S. colleges in response to the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza. The exchange began with Omar‚ a member of the leftist “Squad‚” sharing on X a screen grab of a post from Blackburn using her congressional X account to talk about implementing penalties for students fostering terrorism while advancing the Hamas cause. “Any student who has promoted terrorism or engaged in terrorists [sic] acts on behalf of Hamas should be immediately … added to the terrorist watch list and placed on the TSA No Fly List‚” Blackburn said. In her own post‚ Omar said‚ “A sitting Senator‚ labels Americans protesting against a foreign country accused of carrying out a genocide funded with our tax dollars as terrorists and puts a target on their back to be attacked. This is insanely dangerous and somehow no one will condemn it.” A sitting Senator‚ labels Americans protesting against a foreign country accused of carrying out a genocide funded with our tax dollars as terrorists and puts a target on their back to be attacked. This is insanely dangerous and somehow no one will condemn it. pic.twitter.com/TWKiUpDqZx — Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) April 30‚ 2024 Blackburn‚ using her campaign X account‚ fired back with references to Omar recently suggesting that some Jewish students at American universities support genocide. “You falsely think some Jewish students are ‘pro-genocide.’ I think most Jews believe you’re anti-Semitic‚” Blackburn said in one post. You falsely think some Jewish students are “pro-genocide.”    I think most Jews believe you’re anti-Semitic. https://t.co/MSDP3AO9qm — Marsha Blackburn (@VoteMarsha) May 1‚ 2024 “Despite what you’ve said‚ [Omar]‚ Jewish students aren’t ‘pro-genocide‚’ history won’t be on the side of anti-Semitic protestors‚” she said in another post. Alluding to older comments by Omar‚ Blackburn added‚ “(T)he US and Israel aren’t responsible for ‘crimes against humanity‚’ the IDF is an army‚ and Hamas is a terrorist group‚ and Israel hasn’t ‘hypnotized the world.'” Despite what you’ve said‚ @IlhanMN‚ Jewish students aren’t “pro-genocide‚” history won’t be on the side of anti-Semitic protestors‚ the US and Israel aren’t responsible for “crimes against humanity‚” the IDF is an army‚ and Hamas is a terrorist group‚ and Israel hasn’t… https://t.co/MSDP3AOHfU — Marsha Blackburn (@VoteMarsha) May 1‚ 2024 During a visit last week to Columbia University‚ an epicenter of the anti-Israel protests‚ Omar spoke with a Fox 5 New York reporter about anti-Semitism. Omar noted that she had just met some Jewish students in an encampment before uttering the comment that stoked controversy. “I think it is really unfortunate‚” Omar said‚ “that people don’t care about the fact that all Jewish kids should be kept safe‚ and that we should not have to tolerate anti-Semitism or bigotry for all Jewish students‚ whether they’re pro-genocide or anti-genocide.” Omar’s remark about Jewish students could lead to the Minnesota Democrat being formally reprimanded in the GOP-led House. One of her Republican colleagues‚ Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE)‚ said he was drafting a censure resolution over the view that the comment was anti-Semitic. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP A spokesperson for Omar responded by telling Axios the congresswoman “clearly condemned antisemitism and bigotry for all Jewish students‚” adding‚ “Attempts to misconstrue her words by drafting this baseless resolution are meant to distract” from the Gaza conflict and anti-war protests. Omar has also said she was “enormously proud” of her daughter‚ Isra Hirsi‚ a Barnard College student who was arrested while participating in an anti-Israel protest at Columbia University. Omar’s commentary about Israel previously got her kicked off the Foreign Affairs Committee last year. In February‚ Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said she would force a censure vote against Omar for remarks concerning her native Somalia‚ but did not follow through.

New York Police Department Deputy Commissioner Tarik Sheppard joined the hosts of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Wednesday morning and showed some of the chains that were used by anti-Israel protesters at Columbia University to lock doors shut after they occupied a building on campus. NYPD officers stormed Hamilton Hall at Columbia on Tuesday night and arrested dozens of protesters who had illegally occupied the building. Sheppard said that when the police arrived outside the building they encountered “heavy industrial chains” that were locked with bike locks “on every door” at Hamilton Hall. “This is not what students bring to school. This is what professionals bring to campuses and universities‚” said Sheppard.

Sheppard praised the work of the NYPD officers who made it into the building and took between 40-50 anti-Israel protesters into custody “without incident.” Video posted on social media also showed NYPD officers driving an armored vehicle with a ladder up to Hamilton Hall‚ allowing officers to enter the building through a window. BREAKING: Police at Columbia are entering Hamilton Hall: pic.twitter.com/CjqeC8p6EQ — Steve McGuire (@sfmcguire79) May 1‚ 2024 The anti-Israel demonstrators at Columbia have camped out on the campus for nearly two weeks‚ and a large group of protesters took over Hamilton Hall on Tuesday morning‚ demanding the Ivy League school divest from Israel as the country fights against Hamas. At least one protester was caught on camera smashing a window in Hamilton Hall‚ and the group of demonstrators said they were renaming the building to “Hind’s Hall” after “a martyr murdered at the hands of the genocidal Israeli state at the age of six years old.” Some conservatives have pointed to radical student groups‚ such as the Students for Justice in Palestine‚ receiving funding from George Soros’ Open Society Foundations and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund‚ according to The New York Post. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “There’s real money behind it‚” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said. “And if you look at it‚ in many instances‚ so copycat tents had been seen at Harvard‚ at Yale‚ at Berkeley‚ at Ohio State‚ at Emory‚ and they’re organized by branches of the Students for Justice in Palestine‚ SJP‚ funded by George Soros.” Former President Donald Trump also believes there is more behind the anti-Israel protests at colleges across the country. As the police pushed their way through Hamilton Hall and arrested protesters‚ Trump called into Sean Hannity’s show‚ telling the host that he believes many of the demonstrators at Columbia are “paid agitators.” “I really think you have a lot of paid agitators‚ professional agitators in here too‚ and I see it all over‚” he said. “You know‚ when you see signs and they’re all identical. That means they’re being paid by a source.” “You know‚ these aren’t hand-painted signs where people would go to their basement and paint something because they really believed that. These are all signs that are identical that made by the same printer‚” Trump added. “And you know‚ when you see that that means there’s somebody at the top that’s paying‚ or a group that’s paying‚ and they’re doing a great disservice to the world‚ but they’re doing a great disservice to our country.”

On Tuesday‚ officers of the New York Police Department yanked down the Palestinian flag which demonstrators had used to replace the American flag at City College of New York last week‚ and replaced it with the American flag‚ hoisting it up the flagpole as an officer threw the Palestinian flag to the side.

Earlier this week‚ journalist Ami Horowitz was attacked when he brought an American flag into the pro-Hamas encampment at the City University of New York. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “Before I had a chance to even wave the flag – I just took it out – this mob descended upon me‚” Horowitz told The Daily Wire. “It began with punches to the torso‚ to the kidneys‚ and one to the private parts. I ran back a second time‚ they grabbed me again. This time there weren’t any punches thrown‚ but two guys grabbed me in an armlock and dragged me off the property‚ threw me down. I went back in a third time‚ this time more punches were thrown‚ one to the throat‚ a headbutt. We grappled a whole bunch.” Journalist @AmiHorowitz went to @CUNY with an American flag. Immediately‚ violent extremists stole his flag and assaulted him. The police detained him‚ and ordered him not to return to the protest with his “different views.” pic.twitter.com/YVa2AWzrYo — Daily Wire (@realDailyWire) April 30‚ 2024 “If you did a Venn diagram of those who hate Israel‚ and those who hate America‚ they’d be concentric circles‚” Horowitz said. “It’s the administration‚ the professors … they’re feeding this garbage into the minds of these students. These students look up to these professors. It’s garbage in and garbage out.” Spencer Lindquist contributed to the article. Related: A Journalist Was Assaulted By A Pro-Hamas Mob. Police Detained Him‚ Not His Attackers

In the court proceedings involving whether Georgia prosecutor Fani Willis hired her boyfriend to try the president of the United States for a crime — and lied about it — one piece of sworn testimony was particularly dramatic. Her father‚ John Floyd III‚ testified to the court in February that his daughter was “forced” to move after she was first elected. “After she was sworn in on January 1‚ 2021‚ on or about the third of February at probably 5‚ 5:30 a.m. in the morning‚” Floyd explained‚ “there were people outside her house cursing and yelling and calling her the b-word and n-word. It was bizarre. Fortunately‚ the neighbors called the police and disbanded the group.” That was his explanation for why Willis wound up living in an apartment owned by a friend‚ who testified that Willis was dating Nathan Wade before she hired him to lead the prosecution. Floyd remained in the house‚ which was owned by Willis‚ until 2022 and detailed the threats in his testimony. “They said they were going to blow up the house‚ kill her‚ kill me‚ kill my grandchildren. I mean‚ on and on. I was concerned for her safety‚” he testified. “It was so crazy. We had people‚ we had a guy who showed up in a parked car for probably eight hours‚ and we’d call the police.” “The South Fulton police‚ first they put a car in front of the house that was there permanently‚ a police car. … They brought a person with a dog once‚ sometimes twice a day to circle the house to look for bombs‚” he said. “Also‚ somebody sprayed‚ again‚ the b-word and n-word on the house‚ I don’t think my daughter even knew that. I cleaned it off and called the police‚ the South Fulton Police. I’m sure they have the records of the things that happened.” But in response to a public records request by The Daily Wire‚ the City of South Fulton Police Department said it had no record of any of those incidents. In fact‚ the single incident report pertaining to the home was a report of an abandoned vehicle in July 2021; the vehicle was impounded. South Fulton Police chief of staff Jubal Rodgers said in an interview‚ in which The Daily Wire explained that it was seeking corroboration of Floyd’s testimony‚ that he had not been able to locate any records‚ but that “Madam DA Willis has her own executive protection along with sworn officers‚ plus Fulton County has officers‚” so it was possible that another entity handled the incidents. The Fulton County Police Department‚ however‚ said that “no records exist” in response to a public records request for “any police report‚ incident report‚ or dispatch log from November 1‚ 2020 through June 1‚ 2021 pertaining to” the block. The request noted that “this is the home of District Attorney Fani Willis and her father John Clifford Floyd III (who may have a FCPD protective detail).” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The Fulton County Sheriff’s office told The Daily Wire that it had no record of any incident on the block in the first half of 2021. A spokeswoman for the Fulton County Marshal said that office was not involved. A spokesman for Willis‚ Jeff DiSantis‚ did not respond to a question about the lack of police records and a request to provide records on threats from Willis’ security detail. While the absence of public records does not prove definitively that the events did not happen‚ it raises questions‚ particularly because Floyd specified that a neighbor called police — meaning it would likely not be internal to a special security detail. Floyd also said that Fulton County police responded‚ and that there were threats to kill him‚ presumably also not falling under the DA’s security detail. The story‚ contending that in Fulton County — where 74% of residents voted against Donald Trump and a plurality of people are black — a mob of early-bird racists gathered at 5:30 a.m. to shout racial slurs at the home of an obscure public official who had the power to put them in jail‚ is in some ways reminiscent of actor Jussie Smollett’s claim that while he was walking in subzero temperatures in Chicago with a Subway sandwich‚ white men screamed the n-word and f-word at him while saying Chicago was “MAGA Country.” He was ultimately jailed for filing a false police report. Questions of credibility were at the core of the Fulton County proceedings‚ which ended in Judge Scott McAfee ordering that either Willis or Wade be removed from the case against Trump. Wade resigned in March. Willis said she began a relationship with Wade after she hired him as special prosecutor in November 2021‚ rather than improperly steering a contract to a paramour. An expert witness for the defense said that Willis and Wade exchanged 12‚000 texts and calls between January and November 2021. Wade acknowledged that he said under oath that he had not spent time with other women before his divorce was finalized‚ even though that was not true. Wade used his work credit card to pay for extravagant trips with Willis. Willis contended that she reimbursed him‚ though there was no record of it because it was in cash. Floyd sought to bolster his daughter’s credibility by saying he advised her to keep thousands of dollars in cash on hand because “it’s a black thing.” Willis began a criminal probe into Trump days after the purported mob outside her home‚ and ultimately charged Trump and 18 others with charges related to alleged election interference. The case has been paused since the March ruling as the disqualification ruling has been before an appeals court‚ but is likely to return to the public eye soon. The appeals court has until mid-May to decide whether it will review McAfee’s ruling — in which the judge declined to dismiss the case entirely on the basis of prosecutorial misconduct‚ despite criticizing Willis for “legally improper” activity. In October‚ Willis used a purported 150 threats against her as justification for asking the Fulton County Board of Commissioners to allow her to designate more staff as “personal” employees not subject to some personnel rules‚ saying she’s “got to have people who are loyal to me.” An Alabama man was charged that month with leaving a threatening voicemail about Willis on a Fulton County customer service line.

Are you tired of the “woke mind virus” infecting nearly every aspect of politics and culture&;#63; It’s exhausting finding out that yet another company you buy products from has caved to the leftist mob that screams for “gender equality” while simultaneously failing to define what a man or a woman is. We get it. We’re exhausted too. Companies should focus on making the best versions of their products‚ not trying to indoctrinate you with the same “gender studies” nonsense being spread through universities. Corporations soaking up woke insanity is the reason we started Jeremy’s Razors‚ and it’s the reason our customers’ enthusiasm for our non-woke products convinced us to start Jeremy’s Chocolate‚ and we’re not stopping there. As it is with Harry’s and Hershey’s‚ men’s health products also suck. Do you want to buy your men’s health products from a company that partners with drag queens and supports radical organizations that push gender procedures on children&;#63; Popular men’s health company Hims does just that‚ saying in 2022 that it was “incredibly proud this Pride month to be joining forces with the Queens and The Trevor Project.” Or would you like to get the products that should be made to promote your health from Men’s Health‚ a company that wants to “Explore the origin‚ evolution‚ and current usage of words and phrases used to talk about queer and trans people”&;#63; “So many people assume that Men’s Health is only for cisgender‚ heterosexual‚ masculine presenting men. I’m here to tell you‚ as a queer trans nonbinary human‚ that’s false‚” a 2021 article in Men’s Health states. In other words‚ “Men’s Health” isn’t for men at all because what is a man anyway&;#63; Yeah‚ we didn’t think you’d be too excited about giving your money to companies like Hims or Men’s Health‚ companies that are afraid of manhood itself.

It is the stuff that nightmares are made of. Their toddler had been complaining about a monster in her bedroom wall. The wall was “buzzing.” Ashley Class and her family live in an older house in Charlotte‚ North Carolina. They thought their daughter’s imagination was running wild after watching Disney’s Monsters‚ Inc. After noticing a couple of bees while playing in the yard‚ they began wondering. Turns out they had more than 50‚000 bees in the wall&;#33; @classashley What nighthmares are made of #bees #toddlersoftiktok #toddlers ♬ Oh No – Kreepa Beekeeper Curtis Collins recognized the signs that a hive was near but well hidden. Using thermal imaging equipment‚ he discovered an enormous hive in the wall. In an interview with “Good Morning America‚” Curtis stated‚ “I believe that may be actually the first one that I’ve done that was floor to ceiling.” The damage from the cleanup left a huge portion of the wall torn open. Image from TikTok. The Class family has begun a long process of humanely removing the bees from the wall. The goal is to move the hive‚ queen bee‚ and honey to a more suitable location. Saving the bees takes more time‚ but it is recommended because bees are an integral part of our existence. @classashley Day 10. We still have to wait two weeks until we can seal the hole up in order to give bees that are in the walls a fighting chance. Chalk this up to as one of the items I did not think I would be having to deal with while being 10 weeks postpartum. #charlotte #beegate #savethebees #homerenovation #postpartum #momsoftiktok ♬ original sound – Ashley So far‚ they are on their tenth day. Ashley looks tired after this ordeal. Everything in her daughter’s room has bee residue on it. But after several extractions‚ at least there is an end in sight. Ashley has posted the entire saga of bees in the wall in several TikTok videos on Ashley’s channel. One of the worst discoveries for the family is that their insurance will not cover the damage repair. Still‚ her daughter is feeling optimistic — according to Ashley‚ she’s very excited about re-decorating once everything is fixed&;#33; Images from TikTok here and here.
