DALLAS—Two days before the first anniversary of the start of Israel’s war with Hamas, hundreds gathered in Dallas on Saturday around historic Dealey Plaza—and across the street from a Holocaust museum—to call for the Jewish state’s destruction.   Pro-Palestine activists swarmed the famous site of President John F. Kennedy’s November 1963 assassination for an afternoon of chanting and defiant speeches before marching through city streets.  The rally was one of dozens across the U.S. and Canada that anti-Israel groups had planned as part of an “International Day of Action” to commemorate “one year of genocide” in Gaza and “one year of resistance” since Oct. 7, 2023—when Hamas terrorists killed or kidnapped, raped, and tortured, some 1,200 people in Israel.  (All photos: Hudson Crozier/DailySignal.com) Numerous protesters likewise praised Palestinian “resistance” and demanded no more U.S. military aid to Israel.    Several of the protesters’ signs equated Israel to Nazi Germany. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein, who is Jewish, made the same comparison during a speech, saying she understands “genocide” because her own people endured it under Adolf Hitler. The event drew counterprotesters on the other side of the plaza. They waved American and Israeli flags, blew on a ram’s horn, and sang songs such as “How Great is Our God.”  Periodically, a truck drove through the plaza with messages condemning the Oct. 7 attacks plastered on its sides.  Protesters eventually began slowly marching across several city blocks, complete with a police escort, megaphones, drumbeats, and local Baptist pastor Frederick Haynes slamming Israel as an “apartheid” state from the back of a pickup truck.

EVasive Senate Wannabe Slotkin Hits Flip Flops Out of the Ballpark

NewsBusters readers should recalled our recent piece from last week where we highlighted how CBS Morning co-anchor Tony Dokoupil rightly confronted far-left liberal extremist Ta-Nehisi Coates for his demonstrably and admittedly one-sided screed against the Jewish State of Israel. But in an editorial phone call on the anniversary of the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, audio of which was obtained by The Free Press, CBS bosses dressed him down and claimed he did not meet their “editorial standards.” Dokoupil did get backup from on the network’s heavy-hitter journalists who called out leadership and put them on the back foot. In the interview with Coates, Dokoupil called out his new book The Message for taking such a simplistic, one-sided view of the Israel/Palestinian conflict that, “the content of that section would not be out of place in the backpack of an extremist.” He also asked Coates why he chose to leave out important details like terrorists killing Israeli children: Why leave out that Israel is surrounded by countries that want to eliminate it? Why leave out that Israel deals with terror groups that want to eliminate it? Why not detail anything of the first and the second Intifada, the cafe bombings, the bus bombings, the little kids blown to bits? And is it because you just don`t believe that Israel in any condition has a right to exist?     According to The Free Press’s editorial board, CBS News boss Wendy McMahon suggested that Dokoupil’s pressing questions for a far-left liberal extremist were not in line with their “editorial standards.” She then handed it off to the head of the network’s news gathering apparatus, Adrienne Roark. Sounding as though she was reading from a script, Roark targeted Dokoupil and dressed him down during the staff call. “There are times we fail our audiences and each other. We’re in one of those times right now, and it’s been growing. And we’re at a tipping point,” she dramatically proclaimed Adding: “Many of you have reached out to express concerns about recent reporting. Specifically about the CBS Mornings Coates interview last week as well as comments made coming out of some of our correspondents’ reporting.” That last point was in reference to an interaction Dokoupil had with foreign correspondent Imtiaz Tyab earlier in the same episode as the Coates interview. Following a report where Tyab (who pals around with anti-Israel terrorists) suggested Israel, not Hezbollah, was responsible for the violence in the northern part of the country, Dokoupil essentially said the terror group got what was coming to them: “If Hezbollah thought that Israel was going to graciously take a year full of rockets, Hezbollah miscalculated.” This drew an obvious grimace from Tyab, who possibly went and complained about it. “This goes way beyond one interview, one comment, one story. This is about preserving the legacy of neutrality and objectivity that is CBS News,” Roark declared, as if Dokoupil was what had damaged that.     Further in the audio, chief legal correspondent Jan Crawford (who’s often the even keel when the liberals get hysterical) put her bosses on the back foot as she stood up for Dokoupil, calling out how they were attacking him, and by calling out Coates’ terrible writing: It sounds like we’re calling out one of our anchors in a somewhat public setting on this call for failing to meet editorial standards for – I’m not even sure what. I don’t understand how Tony’s interview or any of the comments he’s made with anchors, failed to, you know, meet our editorial standards that obviously go back to the days of Murrow and Cronkite, which, of course. I thought our commitment was to truth. And when someone comes on our air with a one-sided account of a very complex situation, as Coates himself acknowledges that he has, it’s my understanding that as journalists we are obligated to challenge that worldview so that our viewers can have that access to the truth or a fuller account, a more balanced account. And, to me, that is what Tony did. “And that is what Tony did. He challenged Coates' one-sided worldview, Coates got to respond. It was civil,” she said. Adding: “Tony prevented a one-sided account from being broadcast on our network about a deeply complex situation that completely was devoid of history or fact.” Citing the internal calls to leadership against Dokoupil, Crawford said she didn’t know she needed to be the counter and call them to say what a good job he was doing. She seemed to hint that making such calls would be something she would be doing from now on. The bosses didn’t want to talk about it during the staff call and offered to call Crawford immediately following it or to drop out right then and there to talk. The Free Press said they spoke to an “industry source” who said Crawford had “balls of steel” to do that. They’re right. Dylan Byers, one of the founding partners of Puck News, had more details about the turmoil inside CBS over Dokoupil’s journalism. According to his reporting, “CBS News has invited self-described ‘mental health expert, DEI strategist and trauma trainer’ Dr. Donald Grant to moderate conversation on this issue in an all-staff meeting tomorrow.” Stephen Miller, editor for The Spectator, unearthed a post from Grant that called Republican Senator Tim Scott (SC) an Uncle Tom. “Uncle Tim’s Cabin” read the poor Photoshop of the book’s cover.   As @JerryDunleavy pointed out, here is an Instagram post from the DEI expert that CBS News called in to their offices tomorrow for an all staff struggle session https://t.co/Zw6wWIj7J5 pic.twitter.com/j5ny5dwIsQ — Stephen L.

When people think about the most radical leftist state policies, California, New York, and Minnesota, among others, naturally come to mind. But one place people often forget about is the easternmost state on the U.S. mainland – Maine. - YouTube youtu.be “Maine doesn't get a lot of attention because the population of Maine is very small compared to other liberal states, but the policies from the Janet Mills administration in Maine are as leftist, as radical, as extreme, as anti-American as Gavin Newsom's policies in California,” says Liz Wheeler, who reacts sympathetically to a TikTok of a Maine mother (@northwoodswifey) lamenting the free immigrant housing being built in her state. “I just read an article that said they just built 60 new apartment complexes in Maine for migrants for free housing ... in areas where there are already housing crises where people cannot find housing,” said @northwoodswifey. “Why are we not building this s*** for the people that already live here?” Liz has an answer to the TikToker’s question, but it’s not an encouraging one. “They are trying to radically transform the entire state by mass migration,” she explains. “They are importing migrants by the tens of thousands into Maine to the point where up to maybe 10% of the population will actually be different in the years to come according to the governor's goals.” “They're literally using your tax money in Maine to pay for free apartments for migrants while the people of Maine have been struggling economically for quite some time.” Want more from Liz Wheeler?To enjoy more of Liz’s based commentary, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
