14 US Cities in Globalist Climate Plan With Soros, Clinton Backing.

The C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group has an “ambitious target” to convince Americans to “give up meat, dairy, and private car ownership, as well as almost all flights,” and counts 14 cities in the United States as partners, already.

The group is headed and largely funded by Democrat billionaire Michael Bloomberg, with major contributors such as George Soros’s Open Society Foundations, the Clinton Foundation, and even the World Bank.

The plan is to force adoption of these policies within the next seven years, according to their own report.

To date, the following cities are subject to the plans:

  • Austin
  • Boston
  • Chicago
  • Houston
  • Los Angeles
  • Miami
  • New Orleans
  • New York City
  • Philadelphia
  • Phoenix
  • Portland
  • San Francisco
  • Washington, D.C.
  • Seattle.

Two Charged for Assault on Conservative Journalist Covering Anti-ICE Protest.

A federal grand jury has indicted two people over an assault on Turning Point USA reporter Savanah Hernandez, while she was covering a protest outside an ICE facility in Minneapolis.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A federal grand jury has indicted two people for their involvement in the assault of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) reporter Savannah Hernandez during an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The incident occurred on April 11 outside the Whipple Federal Building, where protesters had gathered near a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office that also serves as a detention facility.
📺 DETAIL: Video from the scene previously showed multiple people striking Hernandez, with one person shoving her to the ground as she filmed. The assault prompted a federal investigation, with authorities examining potential civil rights violations related attacks on journalists. Officials have not released full details about the defendants or the specific charges as of the time of publication.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Leave me, I am trying to leave!” – Savanah Hernandez, during the altercation.
🎯 IMPACT: Minneapolis was the center of far-left protests during ICE operations in Minnesota, with two leftists being killed while interfering with federal agents or, in one case, trying to run down an agent with a vehicle. The far left agitators are believed to have been funded by a massive underground fraud network. Over 10,000 illegals were arrested in the Minneapolis before the operation was wound down.

Florida House Advances Redistricting Bill.

State lawmakers in Florida’s House of Representatives have passed a redrawn congressional map which could give Republicans a significant edge in upcoming midterm elections.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Florida’s House of Representatives has approved a redrawn congressional map. The redistricting proposal could provide Republicans with four additional seats in the U.S. Congress come the November midterms.
📺 DETAIL: On Wednesday, Florida’s House of Representatives approved a redrawn congressional map. Proposed by Governor Ron DeSantis (R), the redistricting measure redraws areas in Orlando, Tampa, and south-eastern Florida. The proposal will reduce the number of Democrat-leaning areas while boosting Republican representation. The scramble to redistrict Florida was sparked after voters in Virginia narrowly approved a redistricting proposal that favors the Democrats.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Based on the testimony that we’ve heard in the two various Committees, I believe that there is a likelihood that that map will be upheld against legal challenges.” – State Rep. Jenna Persons-Mulicka (R-FL).
🎯 IMPACT: After being approved by the state’s House of Representatives, the proposal moves to the Florida Senate, where the Republicans have a substantial majority. Florida’s redistricting measure mirrors similar efforts in other states besides Virginia. In California, a redrawn congressional map favoring the Democrats was passed earlier this year. Similarly, a new congressional map favoring Republicans was introduced in Texas. Notably, these moves come as the Supreme Court voted 6-3 on Wednesday to limit provisions of the Voting Rights Act that previously required some states to create majority-minority districts favoring Democrats.

State Finds Tens of Thousands of Dead People on Voter Rolls.

North Carolina found a significant number of dead people on its voter rolls, prompting calls for immediate action on election integrity.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The North Carolina State Board of Elections identified approximately 34,000 dead people still on the state’s voter rolls, a number higher than anticipated. The discovery was made through a data cross-check with the federal Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) database.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “While we expected to find some cases, this is higher than we anticipated,” said NCSBE Executive Director Sam Hayes.

📰 DETAIL: Officials said many of the cases likely involve voters who moved out of state and died elsewhere, leaving records outdated. Authorities are now working with county election offices to verify each case and remove ineligible registrations in accordance with state and federal law. The discovery, which officials said was higher than expected, highlights the importance of routine voter roll maintenance and data-sharing between agencies. Election officials said the cleanup process will include additional cross-checks and due process before any removals are finalized. Thousands of noncitizens have been purged from voter rolls in other states in recent years, including over 2,700 people in Texas last year and over 50,000 in Arizona.   

🎯 IMPACT: The revelation has sparked calls for immediate action to ensure election integrity, with Congressman Mark Harris (R-NC) labeling the situation a “failure” and urging the passage of the SAVE America Act, which mandates proof of citizenship for voter registration. Notably, without proper verification, the chance of possible voter fraud in the November midterm elections will be exponentially higher.

Controversial ‘Generational Smoking Ban’ Becomes Law.

The United Kingdom has passed a far-reaching law aimed at creating a “smoke-free generation” by banning cigarette sales to anyone born on or after January 1, 2009.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The British government has officially enacted the Tobacco and Vapes Act, a landmark piece of legislation that prohibits the sale of cigarettes to anyone born on or after January 1, 2009. The new law aims to phase out smoking and alleviate pressure on the National Health Service (NHS), Britain’s socialized healthcare system.
📺 DETAIL: Introduced by former Conservative Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in October 2023, the Tobacco and Vapes Act has been implemented by the Labour government of Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer. The law aims for an incremental, generation-by-generation phase-out of smoking. Specifically, the Act bans the sale of cigarettes to anyone born on or after January 1, 2009. It also regulates vape flavors, as well as how vapes can be advertised and packaged. Wes Streeting, Britain’s Health Secretary, claims the new law will prevent approximately 154,800 deaths in England by 2100. The ban on smoking is seen as a part of a broader strategy by the government to alleviate pressure on Britain’s increasingly strained NHS.
🎯 IMPACT: Britain is the first country in Europe to implement an incremental ban on smoking. This legislation comes as smoking has already fallen sharply, from 18.8 percent in 2014 to 9.1 percent in 2024. British government projections further estimate the number of smokers will drop to fewer than 1,000 by the next century, down from over 5.5 million in 2023 when the Act was put before Parliament. Twenty-two American towns have previously attempted a similar “Nicotine-Free Generation” strategy.
📺 FLASHBACK: In March, Nigel Farage, leader of the Reform Party, vowed to scrap the law, calling it “puritanical”. Farage criticized the legislation for turning the British shopkeeper into “some kind of health policeman” through a £200 (~$270) fine. “Ten years from now, a 27-year-old will not be legally able to buy cigarettes, but a 28-year-old will… A decade later 37-year-olds will not be deemed old enough to smoke, but 38-year-olds will be free to do so. And so forth,” Farage wrote.

Islamic Sect Raided Over Sex Crime, Forced Marriage, and Slavery Allegations.

A major police operation in England led to the arrest of members of an Islamic religious sect over allegations of sex offenses, human trafficking, forced marriage, and modern slavery.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: More than 500 police officers conducted a raid on the Islamic Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light (AROPL) headquarters in Crewe, England, resulting in the arrest of sect members over allegations of sex offenses, human trafficking, forced marriage, and modern slavery.
📰 DETAIL: The group, founded in 2018 by Egyptian-American Abdullah Hashem, mixes Shia Islam with beliefs around aliens and the Illuminati. Authorities said the investigation stems from reports made last month involving one female victim, with alleged offenses dating back to 2023. Chief Superintendent Gareth Wrigley said police are treating the allegations with the utmost seriousness. Modern slavery has become a major issue in Britain, with some estimating that there are over 120,000 people living as modern slaves in the country.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Today’s operation is the outcome of a detailed and robust investigation into reports of serious sexual offenses, forced marriage and modern slavery involving members of a religious group called Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light in Crewe.” – Ch Supt Gareth Wrigley, Cheshire Constabulary
🎯 IMPACT: The arrests have prompted a thorough search of the premises, and authorities are working to provide advice and safeguarding to other group members. Nine arrests have been confirmed, all involving foreign nationals with citizenship in the United States, Mexico, Italy, Spain, Sweden, and Egypt. The case underscores the growing issues in Britain with foreign religious sects and migrant communities engaging in modern slavery and sexual exploitation.

Supreme Court Strikes Down Congressional Map as Racial Gerrymander.

The Supreme Court’s decision to invalidate Louisiana’s congressional map could reshape future House elections by limiting the use of race in districting.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The Supreme Court struck down a congressional map in Louisiana on Wednesday, ruling against the use of race as a primary factor in creating a black-majority and almost certainly Democrat-voting district. This decision challenges the lower courts’ mandate for a second majority-black district in the state under the Voting Rights Act.
📰 DETAIL: The case, involving Louisiana v. Callais and Robinson v. Callais, was initially taken up during the 2024-25 term, with the Court considering both the 14th and 15th Amendments. The Trump administration and state officials argued that the map constituted a racial gerrymander, violating the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “If these were white Democrats, there’s no reason to think they would have a second district, none,” stated principal deputy solicitor general Hashim Mooppan during oral arguments.
🎯 IMPACT: The ruling could allow Republican officials to redraw up to 19 congressional districts in the South and Midwest to remove majority-minority districts, likely favoring the GOP. However, the timing of today’s decision may limit its impact on the November midterms, where Democrats are expected to have an advantage.

Knifeman Arrested After Anti-Semitic Stabbing Attacks.

A knife-wielding attacker targeted two Jewish men in Golders Green, London, before being intercepted and detained.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Two Jewish men have been stabbed in Golders Green, North London, in what appears to be an anti-Semitic attack. The suspect, now in custody, allegedly shouted “Allah Akbar” during the attacks.
📍 WHEN & WHERE: The attacks took place in Golders Green, known for its large Jewish community, at approximately 11:15 AM on Wednesday.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “The attacks on British Jews are an attack on Britain itself. It is unconscionable that Jews are being targeted in this way.” – Sarah Sackman, Member of Parliament for Finchley and Golders Green.
📺 DETAIL: On Wednesday, two Jewish men, aged 30 and 70, were stabbed in Golders Green in the London borough of Barnet by a 45-year-old man. Released video footage shows the suspect stabbing a man at a bus stop and chasing another near a synagogue. Both victims have been hospitalized and are reportedly stable. The attacker was subdued using a taser and arrested by police after being stopped by Shomrim, volunteer security patrols composed of members of the Jewish community. The attack took place just a few minutes away from a synagogue that was targeted in a recent arson attack.
🎯 IMPACT: British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has described the attack as “anti-Semitic.” Authorities are investigating potential links to foreign influence, especially from Iran and its proxies, as well as Islamist extremism more broadly.
📺 FLASHBACK: Other recent anti-Semitic attacks in Golders Green have included arson attacks against local synagogues and Hatzalah, a Jewish volunteer ambulance service. Earlier this week, it was revealed that the Iranian embassy was recruiting Iranian expatriates in Britain to “give [their] lives in battle.” Meanwhile, the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, insists that online commentary describing the British capital as an increasingly dangerous place is “misinformation” and has called on tech firms and government authorities to clamp down on it.

Farage Reveals Home Was Targeted in Firebomb Attack, Government Refuses to Provide Security.

Reform Party leader Nigel Farage discloses a firebomb attack on his home, highlighting ongoing security threats and the lack of state protection.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Nigel Farage, leader of Britain’s Reform Party, has revealed that his home was targeted in a firebomb attack early last year. The incendiary device was pushed through his letterbox, causing damage but fortunately burning out in the porch.
📰 DETAIL: Police identified no suspects in the attack. Farage has faced multiple threats and attacks over the years, with an Afghan who entered Britain on a small boat being convicted of threatening to kill him in October, and a leftist agitator being arrested after hurling cement at him on the campaign trail in 2024. However, the British state has been unwilling to provide him with adequate protection, forcing him to rely on private benefactors to cover his security needs.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “I have tried and failed in the past to get security funded by the Home Office and I don’t think the state will ever help me. I’m very much on my own and will be for the rest of my life, and I have to face up to that grim reality.” – Nigel Farage
🎯 IMPACT: The attack underscores the ongoing security threats faced by Farage amid a worsening climate of left-wing political violence. Notably, Farage’s friend and ally, President Donald J. Trump, was the subject of a record third assassination attempt in Washington, D.C., on Saturday, with the White House blaming Democrat officials and liberal journalists and commentators for fostering a “cult of hatred” that encourages “crazy people to do crazy things.”

DATA: British Population Growth Will Be Driven Entirely by Mass Migration.

Revised projections from Britain’s Office for National Statistics (ONS) reveal that the country’s population growth will depend entirely on immigration, as births are set to fall below deaths each year.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Britain’s Office for National Statistics (ONS) has projected that Britain’s population growth over the next three decades will rely entirely on immigration as deaths are expected to outpace births annually. The ONS estimates a population increase of 1.7 million between 2024 and 2034, reaching 71 million.
📺 DETAIL: The report highlights that previous surges in immigration have temporarily boosted population growth, but that the United Kingdom could face long-term demographic decline without sustained mass migration. In February, Reform Party leader Nigel Farage backed comments by Manchester United owner and industrial tycoon Sir Jim Ratcliffe suggesting Britain is being “colonized,” saying, “One million people living in this country don’t speak any English at all. Four million people living in this country barely speak passable English… big areas of our towns and cities have been changed into something completely different to what they were.”
🎯 IMPACT: The demographic shift will result in a country where natives rapidly decline, potentially become an older minority, while immigrants replace them, fundamentally changing the character of the country. Such a shift would be the largest demographic change in Britain in over a thousand years.
📈 DATA: By 2034, children under 16 will account for just 15.5 percent of the population, many from ethnic minority backgrounds, while those over retirement age will rise to 14.2 million.

DATA: Majority of Americans Report Declining Financial Health.

A new Gallup poll reveals that over half of Americans feel their financial situation is worsening, citing inflation, rising gas prices, and long-term financial concerns.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: According to a new Gallup poll, more than half of Americans believe their financial situation is getting worse. The poll reveals that Americans are worried about the rising costs of essentials eating into their savings, creating both short-term and long-term financial concerns.
📺 DETAIL: A new Gallup poll conducted in April has revealed that 55 percent of Americans believe their financial situation is getting worse. This is the highest percentage recorded since the survey began in 2001. Rising costs of essentials like housing, groceries, and gas are driving financial anxiety, while cost pressures from healthcare, childcare, and education are further tightening budgets. The polling also showed that Americans’ financial concerns are both short-term and long-term, with 62 percent of respondents saying they feared not having enough money for retirement, and 67 percent of respondents fearing that they may outlive their retirement savings. Furthermore, 28 percent of respondents said they were worried about credit card debt, up 11 percent from 2021.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Overall, affordability concerns dominate this year’s list, with combined mentions of inflation, energy, housing and health care costs—along with college expenses, transportation costs and childcare—far exceeding all other types of financial concerns.” — Gallup
🎯 IMPACT: The findings underscore the economic pressures facing American households. As Americans focus on covering the essentials, consumer spending is likely to drop, reflecting data published earlier this month in the Consumer Sentiment Index, which showed that U.S. consumer confidence is at an all-time low. Gas prices have spiked, courtesy of the ongoing Iran war and, in particular, due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital passage for exporting energy and fertilizer globally.
