Left-wing Muslims are calling out the Democratic Party for allowing former President Donald Trump to court the Muslim vote as his campaign announced a visit to Dearborn, Michigan. Muslims have decried the Biden-Harris administration for providing support for Israel in their military operation against Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip, and some have even called for U.S. Muslims to boycott the election. 'The reality is that the Biden admin’s unconditional support for genocide is what got us here. ... This election should not be this close.'Among those upset at the campaign visit to the Muslim-majority city is Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan. "Trump is a proud Islamophobe + serial liar who does not stand for peace. The reality is that the Biden admin’s unconditional support for genocide is what got us here," said Tlaib on social media. "This should be a wake-up call for those who continue to support genocide. This election should not be this close."Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud mirrored her comments. "The architect of the Muslim Ban is making a campaign stop in Dearborn. People in this community know what Trump stands for - we suffered through it for years. I’ve refused a sit down with him although the requests keep pouring in," said Hammoud."Trump will never be my president. To the Dems - your unwillingness to stop funding & enabling a genocide created the space for Trump to infiltrate our communities. Remember that," he added. The visit by Trump is reportedly the first by a presidential candidate of a major political party. He visited a popular Muslim-owned restaurant, though the owner said he wasn't trying to tell anyone to vote for Trump. While there, Trump accepted a plaque "on behalf of all peace-loving Michiganders" for calling for peace in Lebanon. Vice President Kamala Harris apparently tried to appease the Muslim faction in her party by rejecting Jewish Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro as her running mate, but the party has still faced vitriolic criticism as the unrest in the Middle East worsened. Some polls have also shown a shift in Jewish voters away from the Democrats to supporting Trump. Like Blaze News?

Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla says basketball fans have been robbed of the entertainment value that hard fouls and scuffles bring.Mazzulla was speaking with hosts on Boston's 98.5 The Sports Hub radio who were discussing potential rule changes to make the NBA more exciting.During the interview with Scott Zolak and Marc Bertrand, Mazzulla asked a question that likely has never been asked before: "How come in baseball they're allowed to clear the benches?" The point of his question was to imply that there should be some form of fighting permitted in basketball, as well, resulting in penalties."I think the biggest thing that we rob people from as an entertainment standpoint is you can't fight anymore," he told the hosts. "I wish you could bring back fighting."Basketball has a history of scuffles and rough play, particularly in the late 1980s and early 1990s, an era that featured very physical players like Dennis Rodman and Isiah Thomas. The radio hosts pointed out that the NBA rarely ever features any hard fouls anymore, adding that there isn't a "fear" of physical repercussions for modern players like that there has been in the past.Mazzulla added, "I mean, you want to talk talk about robbing the league of entertainment; what's more entertaining than when there is a little scuffle?"

Like we should have a power play."Mazzulla was referring to a trial blue card in lower-tier soccer leagues, such as the Women's Super League, where players are sent off the field for 10 minutes for specific violations.ESPN reported that the rule, if implemented, would not be adopted by top soccer leagues until at least 2026-2027.At the same time, most sports actually do not have a power play.Along with basketball, baseball, football, and soccer do not such rules in place. Hockey is the only major North American sport that has players going off for a predetermined amount of time after a foul.Lacrosse has power plays, however, and rugby has a form of 10-minute misconduct penalty that is similar to what is being proposed for soccer.The Celtics coach and the radio hosts went on to discuss possible ways to implement a power play system in the NBA“Let's say you have a technical or let’s say you get a take foul, and you get the one shot, but you're not really rewarded for that because if you miss it, you don’t get the reward for that take foul," Mazzulla explained. "So there should be a power play where on a take foul or on a technical, you have to play five on four for five seconds or three passes."The hosts then suggested the length of a penalty could be one possession.In response, Mazzulla broke down what he thinks the rule should be:"Instead of taking the ball out on the side, you commit a foul and the other guy goes to the other side of half court and he can't pass the half court circle for like, three seconds."The 36-year-old has been incredibly transparent since filling the coaching role in Boston. He has revealed his deep religious faith to reporters and has even shrugged off race-baiting questions from activist journalists en route to a 2024 NBA championship.Like Blaze News?

Scotland is famous the world over for its collection of medieval castles, and a team of volunteer archaeologists have have just added a new one to the list. Most intriguingly, the castle they believe they’ve discovered is linked to Mary Queen of Scots, and also to the Battle of Langside, which may have led directly to the castle’s destruction and the famous Mary’s downfall. Following the Roadmaps to an Archaeological Treasure Over the summer of 2024, representatives of Scotland’s Clutcha Archaeology Group were digging in the forested land of Chatelherault Country Park near the town of Hamilton in South Lanarkshire, in search of any trace of Eddlewood Castle, a legendary structure that has been lost for more than 450 years.
