Reuven Kahane, 57, was charged with second-degree assault after a conflict with two pro-Palestinian protesters resulted in him striking a 55-year-old woman with his car on Manhattan‘s Upper East Side, according to NYPD. The incident occurred around 9 AM on Tuesday. The demonstrators reportedly reacted by vandalizing Kahane’s vehicle.
The injured protester, identified as Maryellen Novak, received treatment for minor injuries at Weill Cornell Medical Center. Despite this, Novak was later arrested and charged with criminal mischief and unlawful assembly. The second involved protester, John Rozendaal, 63, was also arrested on criminal mischief charges.
Kahane was arraigned on Wednesday morning and subsequently released without bail. In a statement, the Manhattan District Attorney’s office said it had decided not to prosecute Novak and Rozendaal.
In defense of Kahane, lawyers Sara Shulevitz and Mindy Meyer indicated that additional facts in this case will emerge and expressed confidence that their client will be cleared of all charges.
Genealogical records suggest that Kahane is a cousin of Rabbi Meir Kahane, a prominent Jewish activist who founded the Jewish Defense League and led a militant anti-Arab movement in Israel. The late rabbi died after speaking at a Zionist conference in New York City in 1990.
Pro-Palestinian protests have erupted in cities across the country, with police arresting hundreds of demonstrators. The protests have become a significant issue for Joe Biden, who has tried to appease both sides as he faces a revolt from the progressive left over his government’s support for Israel.

Jose Ibarra, the Venezuelan migrant charged with murdering Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, was formally indicted on ten charges by a grand jury on Wednesday. The charges include malice murder, kidnapping with bodily injury, aggravated assault with intent to rape, aggravated battery, and tampering with evidence. Ibarra is eligible to receive the death penalty under Georgia state law, but it is unlikely that Deborah Gonzalez, the state’s progressive Democrat district attorney, will seek it.
Gonzalez, the DA for the Western Georgia Judicial Circuit, ran on an extreme criminal justice reform platform that included ending cash bail and capital punishment. Keeping good on her word, in a January 2021 memo, Gonzalez announced that her office would no longer seek the death penalty.
“This office will: No longer seek the death penalty,” Gonzalez wrote. “Cases which are legally eligible for the death penalty are eligible for sentences of life without parole and life with parole eligibility after serving thirty years. Both of these sentences constitute very substantial punishment. Decisions to seek the sentence of life without parole are a sentence of death in prison.”
In Georgia, for a murderer to receive the death penalty, the offender must meet an aggravating circumstance, such as aggravated battery — for which Ibarra was also indicted — or another capital felony. Ibarra’s charges meet the death penalty standard, and his indictment suggests he certainly deserves it.
According to court documents, Ibarra allegedly attempted to rape Riley before “striking her head multiple times with a rock” and “asphyxiating her in a manner unknown to jurors.” Regardless of what Gonzalez decides, Ibarra’s actions stand as a shocking testament to the dangers of mass migration and the crime that comes with it.

Fayette Janitorial Service LLC, a Tennessee-based sanitation company, is paying approximately $650,000 in civil penalties after a federal investigation revealed it was unlawfully employing child migrants. A third of sanitation workers at a Perdue Farms meat-processing plant using Fayette’s services were found to be comprised of children. According to the Labor Department, a Tyson Foods plant and service provider, QSI Sanitation, are also being probed.
Investigators found at least four minors were working in an Iowa slaughterhouse as of December 12, 2023. The Labour Department also believes 15 children were employed at a Perdue Farms facility in Virginia, and nine more at a Seaboard Triumph Foods facility in Iowa. The hazardous work involved sanitizing machines like head splitters, jaw pullers, and meat bandsaws. A severe injury of a 14-year-old, Marcos Crux, was reported at the Virginia plant.
Crux, originally from Guatemala, was able to enter the U.S. alone, with his parents’ knowledge, by exploiting the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008. He was pulled into a conveyor belt while working a night shift, mangling his left arm.
CORPORATE ENABLERS.
Pro-mass migration companies like Tyson, which is also under investigation for allegedly dumping millions of pounds of toxic waste in American lakes and rivers, officially opposed child and illegal alien labor. However, the firm is part of a Barack Obama-linked organization called Tent, which lobbies for poorly vetted migrants awaiting asylum hearings to be given employment authorization documents while they wait.
“[W]hat they do is they sign up corporates all across America and they effectively say, ‘Hey, we’re going to get you cheap labor,’” explained Raheem Kassam, editor-in-chief of The National Pulse, in an appearance on War Room in March.
“It’s indentured servitude, it’s a form of modern slavery… people who can en masse wash the chickens, people who don’t particularly care about health standards, wellbeing, minimum wage standards… just shove them into your factories and use them as human fodder,” Kassam said.
How are corporations able to profit from the illegal immigration crisis? By employing illegal aliens granted "emergency" authorization to work by Biden, while they wait for court cases that, for the most part, will never go anywhere. @RaheemKassam explains the scam in detail: pic.twitter.com/7guAbHZTsD

A three-year-old girl was killed in what police have labeled an “exchange of gunfire” on Friday night in the U.S. capital of Washington, D.C. Identified as Ty’ah Settles, the child was in a car with a family member at the time of the incident. The incident occurred close to the local police station.
Preliminary investigations by the Metropolitan Police Department indicate that the child was not the intended target, said the department’s Commander, LaShay Makal, during a press briefing. As yet, neither a motive for the incident nor any suspect has been clearly known. Multiple shell casings were found between the 2200 and 2400 blocks of Hartford Street, SE.
The news follows D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser gloating to the press this week about how there had not been a murder in the city in seven days. Just last week, Bowser outright refused to meet with the family of three murdered men.

Donald Trump described migrant crime as a dangerous “new category of crime” in February. The National Pulse has been tracking major incidents involving illegal aliens charged or convicted of serious crimes ever since. A review of the last week shows that such criminality continues to endanger the American public and eat into public resources and that Biden may be trying to make it harder for the public to hold him accountable.
MOTHER AND CHILD.
Bodycam footage of the arrest of Angel Gabriel Cuz-Choc, a Guatemalan illegal alien who has confessed to the murder of a 36-year-old woman and her four-year-old daughter, has been released.
Cuz-Choc, who told investigators he paid a “coyote” smuggler to get him into the country, committed the double murder in the victims’ mobile home in Dover, Florida.
“The nature and circumstances of these offenses are excessively violent and brutal… he stabbed an innocent and defenseless four-year-old child while she was in the bathtub,” read documents related to Cuz-Choc’s case.
“Not only did he commit an unimaginable crime which cruelly claimed the lives of two innocent victims, he then made the cowardly and ultimately futile attempt to evade capture,” commented Sheriff Chad Chronister. The illegal was tracked and detained by K9 dogs while fleeing through woodland.
ANOTHER MOTHER AND CHILD.
Bylly Xilox Aquino, another Guatemalan illegal alien, was arrested for an attack on a mother and child, equally shocking but less deadly.
The 23-year-old is charged with raping and sodomizing an unnamed victim in Fairview, New Jersey, in the presence of a child and has been charged with sexual assault and two counts of child endangerment. The rape victim required medical treatment after the attack.
Aquino is subject to a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainer request and is scheduled to appear in court on May 8.
KILLER IN CONNECTICUT.
Yet another Guatemalan illegal alien, an unnamed 35-year-old, was detained in Connecticut. He had previously been convicted of manslaughter but was let loose by state officials after serving only part of his sentence.
The killer entered the U.S. illegally in 2007 and was convicted and imprisoned for first-degree manslaughter in 2013. An immigration judge ordered his deportation in 2014. State officials released him instead of turning him over directly to ICE — a common theme in many of the cases recorded in The National Pulse’s migrant crime round-ups.
WANTED MAN.
ICE announced the detention of a Mexican wanted for homicide in his homeland on Wednesday. Juvenal Arroyo Hernandez, 48, had already been deported from the U.S. twice but slipped through its porous border for a third time.
He first crossed the border illegally in 1998, returning to Mexico voluntarily the same year after Border Patrol caught him. He next crossed the border in 2011 and was again detained by Border Patrol and removed after a few months.
It is not known when he crossed the border for the third time. Becoming a so-called “gotaway,” he was discovered by the authorities in Austin, Texas, in April and subsequently found to be wanted for homicide in Mexico.
PEDOPHILE WITH U.S. CITIZENSHIP.
Felix Aguilar-Matias, a now-former Mexican citizen, has been indicted for naturalization and passport fraud four years after his conviction for sexual battery and touching of a child for lustful purposes in Mississippi.
A U.S. passport-holder, Aguilar-Matias is accused of lying on his naturalization documents when asked whether he had “ever committed, assisted in committing, or attempted to commit, a crime or offense for which you were not arrested.”
The pedophile faces automatic loss of citizenship if he is convicted of naturalization fraud, but deporting him may prove difficult if he has renounced his Mexican citizenship.
He was netted as part of Operation False Haven, an expensive ICE operation examining fraudulently obtained naturalization and other benefits, which has gathered in migrants “convicted of serial rape, child sexual abuse, incest, sodomy, child sexual abuse material, kidnapping, sex trafficking, murder and narcotics trafficking.”
A COVER-UP UNDER BIDEN?
Many of the illegal aliens, including those in The National Pulse’s migrant crime round-ups, are identified only by their age and nationality because the authorities do not release their names.
This appears to be a matter of choice rather than legal necessity and has not gone unnoticed by the Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI). The IRLI is suing ICE, noting that the agency named criminal aliens in 97 percent of its press releases during the Donald Trump administration.
“Recently, ICE began omitting the names of immigration violators it has arrested from agency press releases,” IRLI observed, noting that “[in the] 67 percent of cases where the alien was referred to by name, he/she had typically been named… by state or local law enforcement, or the media.”
ICE has not responded to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests asking it to hand over any internal policies and guidance on publicizing or not publicizing migrants’ names, and IRLI hopes to force them to do so through court action.
The current policy of seldom naming migrants causes transparency issues, as it makes it difficult or impossible for the press and public to examine the background of their cases.

The Biden government’s Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is planning to reduce federal restrictions on cannabis, marking a shift in the drug’s classification for the first time since the enactment of the Controlled Substances Act over 50 years ago. The reclassification, moving marijuana from Schedule I to the less stringent Schedule III, signifies acknowledgment of the drug’s potential medical benefits and a commitment to in-depth research.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued an opinion, expected to be approved by the DEA, favoring the reclassification. Such a decision by the Department of Justice could significantly reduce the black market, stimulate legal markets, and ease tax burdens for cannabis businesses in states where the drug is legal.
The move comes after Joe Biden called for the review of marijuana’s classification in October 2022 and pardoned thousands of Americans with federal convictions for possession of the drug. Federal scientists found credible evidence that cannabis provides medical benefits with lower health risks than other controlled substances.
A Schedule III classification would place marijuana in the same category as substances such as ketamine and some anabolic steroids. The DEA’s initiative comes at a time of growing acceptance of marijuana, with 38 states already legalizing medical marijuana and 24 endorsing its recreational use. Others may soon follow suit. The Florida Supreme Court recently approved a ballot measure to legalize recreational use of marijuana.
While still under strict regulation, the move is expected to reduce the industry’s tax burden, potentially fostering growth in the $34 billion industry. However, there are potential challenges ahead. A public review period could lead to challenges or alterations to the reclassification proposal. Upon completion of the review period and the Office of Management and Budget’s evaluation, Congress will have the power to overturn the rule under the Congressional Review Act.

The first seven of 70 Minnesotans charged with defrauding taxpayers of a quarter of a billion dollars in pandemic food aid are standing trial Monday. Abdiaziz Shafii Farah, Mohamed Jama Ismail, Abdimajid Mohamed Nur, Said Shafii Farah, Abdiwahab Maalim Aftin, Mukhtar Mohamed Shariff, and Hayat Mohamed Nur are accused of taking money that was supposed to feed underprivileged children and allegedly spending it on property, cars, jewelry, and other luxury items.
Nonprofits Feeding Our Future and Partners in Nutrition are among the organizations implicated in a wider scandal. It draws in prominent figures in the Somali community, such as journalist Mohamed Muse Noor. Noor was caught trying to flee to Turkey from Chicago O’Hare Airport in 2022. Eighteen people have previously pleaded guilty.
“The defendants’ fraud, like an aggressive cancer, spread and grew,” prosecutors say of the case.
“By the time the defendants’ scheme was exposed in early 2022, they collectively claimed to have served over 18 million meals from 50 unique locations for which they fraudulently sought reimbursement of $49 million from the Federal Child Nutrition Program,” they added.
Very few meals were served to children, prosecutors say. Defendants allegedly laundered the money through shell companies. They also engaged in passport fraud, taking kickbacks, and flipping houses with the money, among other abuses.
Like the Black Lives Matter movement, the Covid pandemic was a massive vehicle for fraud. China-linked tech firm Womply allegedly defrauded taxpayers of around $2 billion in Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans.

Research by the Heartland Institute confirms that mail-in voting in 2020 was tainted by widespread fraud. Justin Haskins, director of the Socialism Research Center at the think-tank, revealed how they polled people on whether they voted in 2020 and whether they used an absentee ballot. Respondents who answered ‘yes’ to both questions received a series of follow-up queries.
Poll respondents were not asked directly whether they committed voter fraud. Instead, they were asked if they engaged in certain behaviors that are illegal under electoral law. Haskins revealed:
17 percentanswered ‘yes’ when asked, “Did you vote in a state where you’re no longer a legal resident?”
21 percent answered ‘yes’ when asked, “Did you fill out a ballot for someone else on their behalf?”
17 percent answered ‘yes’ when asked if they “forge[d] the signature of a friend or family member on their behalf, with or without their permission?”
“So, all told, it’s at least, and I say at least, one in five mail-in ballots involved some kind of fraudulent activity,” Haskins highlighted.
The Heartland Institute also asked respondents whether they used an absentee ballot, and if they knew anyone who had admitted to committing one of the above forms of voter fraud. Ten percent answered ‘yes.’
Mail-in or postal voting is banned or heavily restricted in many countries, due to the ease of fraud and the difficulty of proving it after the fact.
NO WIDESPREAD FRAUD?
Despite insisting there is no evidence of “widespread” fraud in 2020, the authorities are increasingly being forced to acknowledge the abuse of mail-in ballots in the U.S. In November 2023, a judge overturned the results of a Democrat primary after Mayor Joe Ganim, who was losing the race, surged into the lead after a suspicious influx of absentee ballots. In February 2024, Craig Callaway, a Democrat organizer and former President of the City Council of Atlantic City, was arrested for an elaborate scheme involving paid “messengers” and his office filing vote-by-mail applications and casting ballots on people’s behalf without their knowledge.
Republican lawmakers have attempted to strengthen election integrity in several states, but Democrat governors are vetoing the bills.
WATCH:
NEW: 1 in 5 mail-in-ballots was fraudulent according to a new study conducted by the Heartland Institute.
Wow, shocker!
According to the Heartland Institute’s Justin Haskins, 20% of people *admitted* to committing voter fraud in the 2020 election.

Editor’s Notes
Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
Former Arizona state lawmaker Otoniel “Tony” Navarrete was sentenced to prison on Friday following his conviction for sexual misconduct with a minor. The Maricopa County Superior Court judge handed down a term of one year of incarceration. Navarrete will also serve ten years of supervised probation.
Navarrete was found guilty of one count of sexual misconduct with a child in February. The victim, a boy who had been living with Navarrete, said he was victimized from age 12 or 13 to 15.
The former state senator resigned amid the allegations. He was acquitted of separate accusations of child molestation and engaging in sexual conduct with a minor. Prosecutors dropped another charge of attempting to commit molestation of a child during the trial.
Navarrete was first elected as the state representative for Arizona‘s 30th District in 2016. After one term, he secured a seat in the state senate in 2018. He intends to appeal his conviction.
Multiple Democrat politicians have been hit with child sexual abuse charges in recent years. In 2022, Robert Jacob, a California mayor and Black Lives Matter activist whose “political ascendancy” was praised by The New York Times, was hit with 11 felony charges and one misdemeanor charge for sexually assaulting a minor. He was convicted in 2023. Dennis “Denny” Doyle, a former Oregon mayor and Joe Biden donor, was convicted of possessing child pornography in 2022. He was imprisoned in 2023, and reimprisoned in 2024 for violating his probation.

Far-left politicians have repeatedly used sanctuary city laws in Democrat-run municipalities to shield illegal immigrant sex offenders from being turned over to federal authorities for prosecution and deportation. The National Pulse has documented several instances since President JoeBiden‘s border crisis began shortly after he took office in 2021. Many of these criminals have entered the United States directly as a result of the Biden government’s insistence on not enforcing border security measures.
In March of this year, 26-year-old Haitian national Cory Alvarez was charged in a Massachusetts state court for the rape of a 15-year-old girl in Rockland. Alvarez entered the U.S. under the Biden government’s controversial Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan (CHNV) parole processes.
An illegal immigrant from Guatemala, accused of multiple incidents of assault and childabuse, was able to avoid several attempts to deport him after gaming Massachusetts’s sanctuary laws to prevent being handed over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The Guatemalan national was arrested multiple times in the Lynn, Massachusetts, area between March 2022 and June 2023. After each arrest, a state court dropped the charges and released the individual before ICE could detain him and begin deportation proceedings.
The scale of the Biden government abuse of U.S. immigration laws to release dangerous individuals into the country — who are subsequently able to dodge deportation despite continuing to commit crimes — has been described as “unprecedented” by a former Clinton government immigration official. Using a 1950s parole law, President Biden had dumped over half a million illegal immigrants without visas into the U.S. by the summer of last year. An additional 168,403 immigrants were granted admission to the U.S. through the CHNV program in 2023 — with the Biden government aiming to increase that number to 360,000 per year.
