Mahmoud Khalil sues the federal government and several private groups, alleging they were part of a conspiracy to suppress criticism of Israel by doxing, jailing and attempting to deport supporters of the pro-Palestinian movement. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/m…

Ro Khanna: “They’re just lying. I guess the people who lied about the genocide are going to lie about the detainment of Americans. Israel needs to be treated like an occupying power that is engaged in apartheid in the West Bank and has committed a genocide. Those are just the facts on the ground”

.@FoxNews: DOJ UNVEILS LARGEST-EVER TRADE FRAUD CRACKDOWN "In just under a year since @TheJusticeDept and @DHSgov launched the Trade Fraud Task Force, officials say their work has passed more than a BILLION dollars in recoveries..."

Today, I sued the Heritage Foundation, Stephen Miller, a Columbia affiliate, and others under the KKK Act. I will not stop fighting until everyone who willingly contributed to my missing the birth of my son—and 104 days of my life—answers for it. More actions will come soon. But this lawsuit is about far more than what was done to me. It is about a coordinated, ongoing plot to punish, silence, and intimidate everyone who dares to dissent and speak out for Palestinian liberation. We will hold them accountable.

The West Bank isn’t Israel. But nice try.

“Free advice to the Israelis: It’s not a good idea to detain long-shot presidential candidates,” @RoKhanna said. “Not how you’re going to build good will with the next American president, whoever that is.” nytimes.com/2026/07/11/us/…

Ban him from entering Israel. Period. Do not allow him to land at an Israeli airport, cross an Israeli border, or enter Israeli territory under any circumstances. Ro Khanna was not there to help Israel. He was there to manufacture a confrontation, undermine the country’s security, and return home with political propaganda. These reckless publicity stunts have real consequences. He is inserting himself into an active conflict zone, inflaming tensions, and creating situations that could get Israelis, Palestinians, members of his delegation, or security personnel killed. Israel is a sovereign nation. It has no obligation to admit foreign politicians who arrive to attack its government, dictate its defense policies, and endanger the people forced to manage their theatrics. A ban means a ban.

Firm hired by Israel offers “influencers a base payment of $2,250, plus $1 for every 1,000 views, up to 2 million views,” letting them “earn as much as $4,250 per post” This is part of a foreign influence operation involving Trump’s former campaign manager and Salem Media

🚨 NOW: Ugandan Mayor Zohran Mamdani is sparking backlash after it came out that NYC PLUMMETED $10B+ in tax revenue — and it's about to get WORSE now that he's forcing more millionaires out of the city "New York lost roughly $11B in revenue in ONE SINGLE YEAR. Florida made $21B in net interstate wealth!" 🤯

they did this w zohran, darializa, chris rabb and w melat kiros. anyone who criticizes israel will be branded a terrorist by the apartheid nation that murdered 20k+ children and is currently working to merge our military w theirs. this is how they buy their seats.

I see. "Aspirational goals aren't real results" because we've erased tens of millions of the hundreds of millions of medical debt our program is on track to erase for 300,000 Michiganders. So tell me, how much medical debt have you erased, Congresswoman?

Sean you have always been fair. The Jerusalem Post reports it was not restricted and the IDF and violent settlers acted illegally by blockading us and having us trapped for nearly 75 minutes. I thought you would be outraged Americans were treated this way. jpost.com/israel-news/ar…

@Gothamist Sam Antar reported this a month ago - x.com/SamAntar/statu…


For over two decades, the Open Society Justice Initiative @OSFJustice has been using the law to advance justice and human rights globally.

NEW: @NYCMayor addresses @JulieMenin concerns of rape and felony assaults on the rise by saying the definition has changed. “A lot of the increase in rape, comes from an expanded definition of what counts as rape,” says Mamdani. Stands by not increasing number of officers.

NEW MINI-INVESTIGATION: How NYC reports a violent-crime decline that didn’t happen. Let’s look at the last 28 days. 🚨 There was no 5.6% drop in violent crime. NYPD’s own report produces that number by comparing two different kinds of data. Match them, and the decline vanishes — apples-to-apples, violent crime is flat, with three of four categories actually higher than a year ago. Here’s the trick. For the latest 28-day period, NYPD compares fresh, preliminary 2026 numbers against 2025 numbers that have had a full year to be revised upward. Both reports admit it in writing: figures are “preliminary and subject to further analysis and revision.” The current year hasn’t been revised yet. Last year has — all year long. Compare the same kind of data — 2026 preliminary against the preliminary 2025 numbers NYPD itself published for the identical 28-day period a year ago — and the 5.6% decline doesn’t shrink. It disappears. As the report frames it (2026 fresh vs. 2025 revised): • Murder: 22 vs. 25 (−12.0%) • Rape: 153 vs. 153 (0.0%) • Robbery: 1,040 vs. 1,253 (−17.0%) • Felony Assault: 2,517 vs. 2,523 (−0.2%) Total violent felonies: 3,732 vs. 3,954 = −5.6% Same kind of data (2026 fresh vs. 2025 fresh): • Murder: 22 vs. 14 (+57.1%) — small numbers, so read the counts, not the percent • Rape: 153 vs. 146 (+4.8%) • Robbery: 1,040 vs. 1,191 (−12.7%) • Felony Assault: 2,517 vs. 2,371 (+6.2%) Total violent felonies: 3,732 vs. 3,722 = dead flat. Three of the four major violent-felony categories are higher than a year ago. The “decline” is an artifact of the comparison, not the crime data. Here’s where the 5.6% comes from. Over the past year, NYPD revised the 2025 numbers upward — its own counts for the identical 28-day period, a year apart: • Murder: 14 → 25 • Rape: 146 → 153 • Robbery: 1,191 → 1,253 • Felony Assault: 2,371 → 2,523 Total: 3,722 → 3,954 (+232 crimes) Inflate last year’s baseline by 232 crimes, hold this year’s un-inflated, and you’ve conjured a 5.6% “improvement” out of thin air. Nothing about actual crime changed. Only the maturity of the data did. The revisions themselves are routine. The spin isn’t. And this isn’t a one-administration problem — CompStat has reported preliminary-against-revised under every mayor. That’s the point: the comparison is built to flatter whoever’s in office, every single week. If 2026 follows the same pattern, these “fresh” 2026 numbers will get revised upward too — and today’s flat line will tilt positive. One window, equal length, both sides 28 days, both numbers straight from NYPD’s own reports. (I’m not touching year-to-date — the 2026 report runs through June 14, the 2025 report through June 15, so YTD isn’t a valid one-to-one comparison. The 28-day window is.) The report’s framing: down 5.6%. Apples-to-apples: flat, with three of four categories up. Same source. Same crimes. The decline only exists if you grade two different years on two different curves.

Secretary Rubio’s announcement that he will dismantle the International Criminal Court is reckless and dangerous. It undermines the rule of law, weakens global accountability, and turns America's back on the values we claim to champion.

🇺🇸🇵🇸 Shocking footage out of the West Bank shows an American delegation held at gunpoint by armed extremist settlers while local military forces just watched. U.S. Congressman Ro Khanna revealed how his group was swarmed and blockaded for 75 minutes by armed extremist settlers, with local military forces standing by, until the American embassy was forced to intervene. Sitting members of Congress, held at gunpoint by civilians of a US ally, while soldiers looked on. And the aftermath angered him almost as much. Rep. Khanna slammed foreign officials for allegedly falsifying details about the incident on television, warning they're completely misjudging how Americans will react to seeing their own representatives treated this way. @RoKhanna

You describe the incident as "a bit delayed in driving forward." In America and most democracies, being blockaded by armed settlers and the IDF for 75 minutes (which no one disputes) would constitute detention/false imprisonment and the perpetrators arrested. Israel's response not understanding what rights are is almost more disturbing than the horrific incident itself witnessed by the NYT photographer, other Americans, and Israelis and confirmed by the Jerusalem Post, NYT, and Reuters.
