Sorry, Americans, but your "buffalo" aren't actually buffalo.

Around 50,000 years ago, all modern humans around the world underwent some massive cultural shift at the exact same time, and no one knows why.

And you thought turbulence was scary!

Whether it's MSNBC or MS NOW, this network fully supports the disruption of border enforcement. They hail it as "nationwide resistance." On Sunday's The Weekend: Primetime, they promoted an effort in New York City where a crowd of anti-ICE activists tried to stop federal agents from exiting a parking lot. Or as Palestinian-American community organizer Murad Awawdeh of the New York Immigration Coalition declared, they were "putting their bodies on the line to defend their neighbors." Illegal immigrants are commonly described as "neighbors." How dare they deport the "neighbors." Co-host Elise Jordan asked Awawdeh, a former president of the Muslim Democrats of New York, if these were "spontaneous protesters" or did they get a call, leading him to explain: I think what ended up happening is several people saw what was happening in the parking lot and then quickly went to social media and started texting people in group chats and saying, "Hey, this thing is happening -- we don't know what's going to happen." Reports and rumor mills were swirling that there was supposed to be allegedly a 600-man federal agent raid on Canal Street yesterday, and that's what these protesters -- ordinary New Yorkers who stepped up to defend their neighbors -- were able to stop. Without anyone mentioning that it is illegal to obstruct federal agents who are enforcing the law, co-host Catherine Rampell followed up by asking her liberal guest to give viewers advice on how to join in their disruptive leftist activism: Murad, do you have advice for regular people who might be watching this show right now, for how they should react if something like this happens in their neighborhood? What are best practices to protect their neighbors without escalating, without giving the administration the excuse that it's looking for to escalate and potentially, you know, lead to violence or teargas or various other things? What are the things that you would recommend people do or don't do in these circumstances? Isn't trying to block law enforcement an "escalation"? After Antonia Hylton asked Awawdeh to predict what would happen if federal agents persist in targeting New York, he asserted: Well, for the past 11 months, we've seen them ramp up escalations and enforcement across the city of New York and the state of New York. We saw them raid farms immediately after this administration came into office. We saw them raid workplaces. We've been seeing them escalating throughout all of New York City -- Elmhurst, Corona, Jackson Heights, Sunset Park. These places have been constantly attacked, and what they're doing in this moment, similar to what they did the first time, is they're looking for a spectacle. They're looking for the theatrics so that they have the excuse, as you mentioned, to actually escalate here. And we're not giving that to them. How is the spectacle of hundreds of activists trying to block ICE not defined as "theatrics"? Wrapping up the segment, Jordan asked him to define what it means for New York to be a "sanctuary city," leading him to complain about the NYPD intervening to arrest protesters who were obstructing federal agents. Transcript follows: MS NOW's The Weekend: Primetime November 30, 2025 6:33 p.m. Eastern MURAD AWAWDEH, NEW YORK IMMIGRATION COALITION: Ordinary New Yorkers who are walking and, you know, doing their business on, you know, a super-sale weekend saw that there was some activity happening with federal agents congregating in this parking lot, and then shortly thereafter what seemed to be a few people turned into dozens to hundreds, making sure that they were actually putting their bodies on the line to defend their neighbors. And I think one thing people should know about New Yorkers if they don't know already is that, you know, we may not be the nicest all the time, but one thing you can't do is mess with our neighbors or other New Yorkers because what makes New York City is its people and who they are. So we're going to continue fighting and defending each other and making sure that we're stepping up and resisting in a nonviolent way to ensure that our communities stay whole -- that no family is separated, and that our communities continue to thrive. ELISE JORDAN: So what's your best estimate on the number of protesters who were there and who were blocking the officers from leaving the parking garage as you witnessed it? AWAWDEH: Well, I think the number -- JORDAN: Were they just spontaneous protesters? Or did they get a call from their networks of protests -- you know, people saying, "Hey, come together -- let's do this"? AWAWDEH: I think what ended up happening is several people saw what was happening in the parking lot and then quickly went to social media and started texting people in group chats and saying, "Hey, this thing is happening -- we don't know what's going to happen." Reports and rumor mills were swirling that there was supposed to be allegedly a 600-man federal agent raid on Canal Street yesterday, and that's what these protesters -- ordinary New Yorkers who stepped up to defend their neighbors -- were able to stop. CATHERINE RAMPELL: Murad, do you have advice for regular people who might be watching this show right now for how they should react if something like this happens in their neighborhood? What are best practices to protect their neighbors without escalating, without giving the administration the excuse that it's looking for to escalate and potentially, you know, lead to violence or teargas or various other things? What are the things that you would recommend people do or don't do in these circumstances? (MURAD AWAWDEH) ANTONIA HYLTON: Murad, do you think that this is a preview of what's to come? We know that the Trump administration has wanted to come to New York, but this is a very dense city. It's also a city with a rich organizing history that your organization is very much a part of. And so already it seems from the first Canal Street raid to what we saw happen yesterday, they're going to hit some roadblocks that they might not have experienced in other parts of this country. What do you think it's going to look like if Tom Homan, Greg Bovino and all those guys try to really ramp things up here in 2026? AWAWDEH: Well, for the past 11 months, we've seen them ramp up escalations and enforcement across the city of New York and the state of New York. We saw them raid farms immediately after this administration came into office. We saw them raid workplaces. We've been seeing them escalating throughout all of New York City -- Elmhurst, Corona, Jackson Heights, Sunset Park. These places have been constantly attacked, and what they're doing in this moment, similar to what they did the first time, is they're looking for a spectacle. They're looking for the theatrics so that they have the excuse, as you mentioned, to actually escalate here. And we're not giving that to them. What we are going to do is to continue to defend and protect our communities, we're going to continue to organize, and we're going to continue to build power for all New Yorkers to ensure that they are able to continue to live their lives because this city would not be the city -- throughout every generation of immigrants who have come here have built it from our roads to our bridges to our skyscrapers to our local economy so the food -- everyone wants to come here because of our communities. So we're going to continue to harness that power and lead with our New York values. JORDAN: So the New York police commissioner -- Jessica Tisch -- it was reported in the New York Times that she was very critical of this attempt, and she said it put New York City residents at risk, and it put police force at risk, but New York City, though, it's a sanctuary city. Sometimes police officers here are helping with crowd control or something. Could you explain what is the law and the policy of the New York City police navigating this line between federal and local governments? AWAWDEH: So, first, yesterday, the NYPD did escalate and attack violently protesters who were then arrested and then charged. We're calling on those protesters to be released and their charges to be dropped. The second piece here is that New York City is a sanctuary city, meaning that we love and cherish every single person who makes it what it is. We want to make sure that we are all walking home together. And that's literally it. So the NYPD -- there are certain laws on the books that say they are not allowed to coordinate or collaborate with federal immigration enforcement on civil immigration issues. So what you saw yesterday is walking in a grey area because what they ended up doing while saying that they're not supporting -- which they were -- they were saying -- they were using the excuse as crowd control, but that's neither here nor there. What we saw was ICE congregating -- getting ready to attack New Yorkers and then NYPD coming to their defense when people pretty much foiled their plans. JORDAN: Murad, thank you so much for being with us and sharing your expertise.

Journey’s Jonathan Cain first met Charlie Kirk in 2016 outside the Republican National Convention in Cleveland.The conservative firebrand was in rare form, recalls Cain. The activist held a Big Government Sucks sign and vowed, “We’re gonna change the world.”'I said to Paula, "He could be president someday,"' he says. 'He had the drive and the wisdom of the ages. … He reached generations.'Kirk did just that. He started a youth movement in Turning Point USA. The organization empowered conservative college students nationwide and played a pivotal role in President Donald Trump’s 2024 re-election campaign.His viral debates woke up countless Gen Zers to the power of faith and conservative values. And following his Sept. 10 murder, his legacy sparked a conservative college revival.'No one else'Cain, a singer/songwriter and keyboardist for Journey for 45 years, got to know Kirk via his wife, President Donald Trump’s spiritual adviser Paula White-Cain.“It was such a blow to free speech, a mockery of everything he had done,” Cain tells Align of Kirk’s murder. The musician decided to write a pastor appreciation song for the slain leader.“Not many pastors came close to what he accomplished … the revival, bringing kids back to church, having them look at their family values,” Cain says.That impulse became “No One Else,” a new single dedicated to Kirk’s memory and cultural impact.No one else reached generationsCould heal with truth and conversationSetting all differences asideNo one else could question hateTurn hearts and minds with true debateFrom the battle our nation will ariseFaithful servant, you’ve done wellNo one elseLike a few songs in his decades-long repertoire, this one came to him quickly.“I went into my studio. ... Thirty minutes later, I fleshed out everything I wanted to say,” he says. Men of faithThe track, like Kirk’s death, brought out the worst of the venomous left.“The social commentary was really disgusting,” Cain recalls of some online reactions. “They accused me of trying to make money. … There’s very little money in music any more.”Cain is an industry veteran, so he shrugged off the naysayers. He still seems stunned that he tried to get Rolling Stone magazine interested in covering his song, to no avail.“They didn’t want to touch an interview with me,” he says. “The song was about Charlie.”Like Kirk, Cain is a man of deep faith, as is his wife. The Cains’ Trump connection found them running into Kirk often over the years. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member was continually struck by how Kirk got “into the hearts and minds” of his young followers, sharing his conservative Christian values along the way.“I said to Paula, ‘He could be president someday,'” he says. “He had the drive and the wisdom of the ages. … He reached generations.”RELATED: Where evil tried to win: How a Utah revival turned atrocity into interfaith miracle MELISSA MAJCHRZAK/AFP via Getty Images'He saved you for music'Cain credits his father, a “prayerful man,” for instilling faith in him at an early age. His faith was shaken by a 1958 fire at his school in Chicago, a disaster that took the lives of 93 children and three nuns.“How could that evil happen?” he asked himself at the time.His father, again, nudged him toward a spiritual path. He took the youngster to music school, imploring him to share his gifts with others.“He saved you for music,” his father told him. The 8-year-old couldn’t initially get his hand around a guitar, but he did as he was told, and the music began to flow through him.That wasn’t all.“The idea of Jesus stayed with me, firmly planted,” he says.Fateful JourneyThe rest, as they say, is music history. Cain released his first solo record in 1976, joined the Babys three years later, and, in 1980, took over as the keyboardist for Journey. The band became a sensation, with Cain contributing keyboards and critical songwriting for the iconic band.He played a key role in the band’s most famous song, “Don’t Stop Believin’,” with lyrics inspired by his father.Now, at 75, he is prepping for Journey’s 2026 tour, complete with a reconstructed knee. Journey may keep rocking, but Cain knows when it’s time to step away from the band.“I don’t want to die on the road. I’ve been out there for 50 years. … It feels like the time to get off the train is here,” he says.He admits that matters have not always been smooth with longtime bandmates like Journey founder Neal Schon, including legal dustups in recent years.“It’s sad, but it happens to most bands,” he says, noting that Mick Jagger and Keith Richards aren’t mates in the traditional sense, given their decades of acrimony. Still, the show must go on, and Cain appreciates his bandmates and, even more, the fans.“They’re the gold that has given me a career. ... I’m grateful and thankful for them. I want to go out the right way,” he says. “I’ll be 77 to 78 [by the time the tour ends]. That’s enough.”

Two males were fatally shot Friday night in Texas — and the man who pulled the trigger said the pair followed him, tried to block his car, and physically attacked him.Deputies with the Harris County Sheriff's Office told KTRK-TV the shooter said he acted in self-defense.'Looks like the 2 attackers had road rage. Is he not supposed to defend himself? Whatever it takes.'Deputies responded around 8:45 p.m. to reports of a possible roadway shooting on Greengate Drive near Spring Stuebner Road in the Spring area, KHOU-TV said.First responders told KTRK they found two males with gunshot wounds in the 22100 block of Greengate Drive; one died at the scene, and the other was taken to a hospital where he died. The shooter said the pair followed his car for a while and tried to block him when he reached the neighborhood where the final confrontation took place, the sheriff's office told KTRK.Deputies added to KTRK that all three exited their vehicles, and the man who pulled the trigger said the pair started kicking him and his car.“The shooter in the incident stayed on scene and surrendered himself to arriving deputies,” Sgt. Jason Brown noted to KHOU. The man who pulled the trigger is cooperating with investigators, the sheriff's office told KTRK. The fatally shot males have been identified as 57-year-old Timothy Underwood and 59-year-old Keith McDonald, KTRK said, citing the sheriff's office.No charges have been filed, officials told KTRK, and the shooter was not in custody.However, the case was under investigation, and the district attorney's office will review it, the sheriff's office told KTRK.RELATED: Elderly Texas homeowner armed with hunting rifle spots burglar who broke through back door. It doesn't end well for intruder. When asked if the two males were armed, Brown told KHOU, “Not that we know of. We’re still in the process of going through the scene ... but as of right now, we don’t believe that they were armed.”Reactions under KHOU's Facebook post about the fatal shootings were mixed:"They don’t have to be armed to do bodily harm or even kill you," one commenter said."They do if you're in a car ... because why don't you just jump the curb to get away," another commenter countered. "How are unarmed men going to hurt you if the doors are locked?""FAFO," another user bluntly noted before later adding, "Looks like the 2 attackers had road rage. Is he not supposed to defend himself? Whatever it takes.""IDK ... call me crazy, but if I felt my life was in danger, I would not park my car and get out of it ... would you?" another commenter wondered. "Self-defense doesn’t work here. He was trigger happy and probably had road rage."Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!
