Far Left YouTuber Tells 1.6M People to Shoot GOP Senator.

Far-left YouTube personality Hasan Piker appears to be encouraging his social media followers to shoot Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR). In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Piker — who is also known as ‘HasanAbi’ — responded to calls by Cotton for the average American to stand up to pro-Hamas demonstrators who block bridges and road traffic with an image of an improvised gun which at least 1.6 million people have viewed.

Threatening a Member of Congress is considered a felony under federal law. Offenders are often charged under 18 U.S. Code § 875 (c), which states: “Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication containing any threat to kidnap any person or any threat to injure the person of another, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.”

Piker, a Turkish-American, has a history of engaging in radical politics and making threats against those he deems his political enemies. The former producer for the progressive internet show The Young Turks, Piker attacked Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) — who lost an eye while serving in Afghanistan — during a Twitch stream in 2019.

“What the fuck is wrong with this dude? Didn’t he go to war and like literally lose his eye because some mujahideen, a brave fucking soldier fucked his eye hole with their dick?” Piker ranted to his viewers. He followed up his comments on Crenshaw, declaring: “America deserved 9/11.”

Despite being a self-described ‘leftist’ and ‘democratic socialist,’ Piker has lived a life of comfort and luxury. His lucrative social media enterprises on YouTube and Twitch have bolstered his family’s wealth, allowing Piker to purchase a $2.7 million mansion in West Hollywood, California, in 2021. Piker is the nephew of the founder of The Young Turks show and radical progressive activist Cenk Uygur.

Trump Visits Harlem, Crowd Chants ‘Four More Years!’

On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump stepped away from his criminal trial to visit Hamilton Heights bodega worker Jose Alba. Alba had been charged with murder after defending himself against Austin Simon, an ex-convict who jumped the counter in his store back in July 2022. The charges were brought by Alvin Bragg, the Democrat district attorney currently prosecuting Trump in Manhattan.

During his visit to the bodega, Trump was greeted with enthusiastic support. Crowds sang The Star-Spangled Banner and chanted “four more years!” Trump promised them that a new administration was “going to be saving America” after the presidential elections in November.

Alba’s aborted prosecution, which earned public backlash after security footage indicated he acted in self-defense, has given weight to Trump’s campaigning against the Democrats’ harsh attitude towards the law-abiding and leniency towards lawbreakers.

“There’s no crime,” Trump said of Bragg’s case against him. “You know where the crime is? In the bodegas where they come and rob them every week. Alvin Bragg does nothing. He goes after guys like Trump who did nothing wrong,”

During his visit, Trump expressed his fondness for New York City and said his campaign would be “making a big play” for its traditionally Democrat-voting state in November.

“I love this city, and it’s gone so bad in the last three years, four years, and we’re going to straighten New York out,” he promised.

Man Claiming To Be Transgender ‘Vampire’ Convicted of Sexual Assault.

Adam Hetke, a transgender sex offender also known as Sabrina and a slew of other aliases, faces another conviction after a Wisconsin jury found him guilty of two counts of sexual assault. A biological male, the self-described transgender female ‘vampire’ was found to be mentally fit to stand trial earlier this month.

According to prosecutors, last July, the 35-year-old Hetke followed a mentally disabled 16-year-old girl home from a gas station before sexually assaulting her. Upon his arrest, he was charged with first-degree sexual assault by threatening the use of a dangerous weapon and second-degree sexual assault of a mentally ill victim.

Hetke, who was released from prison for other sex crimes just a year prior, committed the assault while also under investigation for the alleged murder of Vydale Thompson-Moody, a 28-year-old man also with a mental disability. The registered sex offender is accused of strangling Thompson-Moody with an electrical cord.

A tentative homicide charge against Hetke was filed in Milwaukee in 2021, although the homicide investigation was considered to be ongoing. This resulted in the sex offender being released from custody. According to his roommates, Hetke confessed to the murder of Thompson and claimed to police he was “possessed by a demon.”

Since his most recent conviction, Hetke now faces a first-degree murder charge for the death of Thompson. The trial is slated to begin in June.

‘Psychic’ Canadian Conned 1.3M Americans Out Of $175,000,000.

Patrice Runner, a Canadian fraudster, was sentenced on Monday to 10 years in prison for defrauding over $175 million from an estimated 1.3 million Americans. For two decades, Runner posed as a ‘psychic’ who would promise financial success and personal happiness if his marks sent him money through the mail.

“Patrice Runner’s extravagant lifestyle, borne on the backs of millions of older and vulnerable Americans, has come to an end,”  U.S. postal inspector Chris Nielsen said. Responding to the 10-year sentence handed down in the Eastern District of New York, Nielsen said he believed it to be an “appropriate punishment.”

An American jury convicted Runner last June of 14 counts, including conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud. The jury also found the conman guilty of eight additional counts of mail fraud, four counts of wire fraud, and conspiracy to commit money laundering.

In his scheme, the conman would fraudulently pose as famous psychics Maria Duval and Patrick Guerin. Letters sent to his targets would claim they could “achieve great wealth and happiness with the psychic’s assistance, in exchange for payment of a fee.” The Department of Justice (DOJ) said Runner and his co-conspirators sent tens of thousands of such letters weekly.

The DOJ said in a press release announcing the sentencing decision that “some victims made dozens of payments in response to the fraudulent letters, losing thousands of dollars.”

United States government officials had Runner — who possesses both Canadian and French citizenship — extradited after his arrest in Ibiza, Spain, in 2020. Addressing the charges, the Runner claimed he did nothing illegal. “Maybe it’s not moral, maybe it’s bullshit,” he said, adding: “But it doesn’t mean it’s fraud.”

Dem Mayor Charged With Abusing Teen Daughter.

Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small (D) and his wife, La’Quetta Small, have been charged with child endangerment, assault, and making terroristic threats. On Monday, the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office reported the couple stands accused of physically and emotionally abusing their teenage daughter. Prosecutors allege the incidents occurred between December 2023 and January 2024.

The prominent New Jersey Democrat allegedly beat his daughter with a broom to the point of rendering her unconscious. He is additionally accused of inflicting bruising through repeated punches and threatening to throw her down a staircase. La’Quetta Small — the city’s superintendent of schools — has been accused of striking her daughter with a belt and dragging her by her hair.

“PRIVATE FAMILY ISSUE.”

During a news conference earlier this month, Small claimed the police search was related to a “private family issue.” The Democrat mayor downplayed any criminal concerns. He told the press, “if I wasn’t Mayor Marty Small or she [his wife] wasn’t the superintendent, you wouldn’t hear of this.”

“There’s no corruption. We don’t have Atlantic City Housing Authority money in our house,” Mayor Small said during the press conference, apparently attempting to deflect from rumors the police search involved accusations of child abuse. He continued: “We don’t have city of Atlantic City money in our house. I didn’t steal anything. My wife didn’t bring Atlantic City Board of Education money to our house, as alleged.”

ACCUSATIONS OF ELECTION FRAUD.

Small was appointed mayor in 2019 after former Mayor Frank Gilliam resigned. Gilliam had pleaded guilty to wire fraud in a scheme to steal $86,000 from a youth basketball team. Small was charged with election fraud in 2006 and 2011; however, the charges were eventually dropped in both instances.

Illegal Escapes Across Border Into Mexico After Stabbing 2 People and Being Shot by National Guard.

A National Guardsman from Indiana shot an illegal immigrant who stabbed two individuals on the U.S. side of the border in El Paso, Texas, on Sunday. Both stabbing victims were treated for non-life-threatening injuries. The illegal immigrant was able to escape across the U.S. southern border, making it back into Mexico before he was apprehended.

Border Patrol announced the incident through a memo stating: “On April 14, 2024, at approximately 13:10 hours, [Border Patrol] was notified by Army Personnel that a migrant was seen stabbing another migrant south of the C-wire, by the river’s edge.”

“According to Army Personnel and DPS Trooper, a National Guardsman shot a subject, who subsequently went back south to Mexico. TX Department of Public Safety Trooper (TX DPS) was contacted, and EMS was contacted. As per agents, two subjects (suspected UNCs) sustained non-life threatening injuries,” the memo continued.

Responding to the incident, the Indiana National Guard said in a statement, “The Indiana National Guard is aware of the incident that happened Sunday, April 14. We support and care for our soldiers and airmen who are supporting Operation Lone Star.”

The rise of violence at the border appears to be a growing trend amidst inadequate security measures under the Biden regime. Last month, another border incident culminated in illegal immigrants instigating a riot, assaulting Border Patrol officers, and demolishing a border barrier.

Additionally, the lack of border enforcement by the Biden government has allowed criminal activity to thrive. The National Pulse has extensively covered the increasing encounters Border Patrol has had with alleged pedophiles, human traffickers, drug smugglers, gang members, and murders attempting to cross the border into the United States.

‘Rust’ Armorer Gets 18 Months in Prison, Alec Baldwin’s Trial Approaches.

Hannah Guttierez-Reed, the head armorer on the set of the Alec Baldwin film Rust, was sentenced on Monday to 18 months in prison for the 2021 fatal on-set shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins by Alec Baldwin. Gutierrez-Reed was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in March.

However, Guttierez-Reed may not be the only individual who faces a jail sentence over Hutchins’s death. Baldwin, who was the star of the film and its co-producer, was indicted — for a second time — for involuntary manslaughter by a grand jury in January. His trial is set for July 10.

Baldwin stands accused of killing Hutchins either through negligence or “total disregard or indifference” for safety on set. Gutierrez-Reed’s attorney argued that the armorer was being set up as a scapegoat and that Baldwin was truly responsible for Hutchins’s death.

“It was not in the script for Mr Baldwin to point the weapon,” defense attorney Jason Bowles said during trial. “She didn’t know that Mr. Baldwin was going to do what he did.”

Clinton-Linked Diplomat Spied For Cuba, Sentenced to 15 Years in Jail.

Former U.S. diplomat and Cuban spy Manuel Rocha has been sentenced to 15 years in prison and ordered to pay a $500,000 fine after pleading guilty to conspiring to act as an agent of a foreign government earlier this year. The plea agreement stipulates that Rocha, 73, must also cooperate with federal investigators in an ongoing assessment of the impact his espionage activities have had on U.S. interests.

U.S. District Court Judge Beth Bloom told Rocha at the sentencing hearing: “Your actions were a direct attack to our democracy and the safety of our citizens.” The Cuban spy acknowledged responsibility for his actions and said he would accept the court’s penalty.

Rocha — who served as the U.S. Ambassador to Bolivia under both Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush — was arrested in early December of last year. His entering of a guilty plea to spying allegations in late February shocked the U.S. foreign service community. The scale of damage that Rocha may have caused to U.S. intelligence and national security operations around the communist Cuban regime is not yet known. Details of the former diplomat and spy’s activities are considered classified – Judge Bloom herself was not even informed by prosecutors when they became aware that Rocha was an agent of Cuba.

In recorded conversations with an undercover FBI agent posing as a Cuban intelligence operative, Rocha referred to the late Cuban leader Fidel Castro as “Comandante,” referred to the U.S. as the “enemy,” and bragged about his role as a Cuban operative for over 40 years within U.S. foreign policy circles.

FBI Opens Criminal Investigation Into Baltimore Bridge Smashed by Container Ship.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has initiated a criminal investigation into the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland, last month. The bridge was struck on March 26 by the DALI, a container ship flagged in Singapore and crewed by Indians, assisted by U.S. harbor pilots. The subsequent collapse of the bridge caused six fatalities.

The FBI has officially confirmed its presence on the ship, stating, “The FBI is present aboard the cargo ship DALI conducting court authorized law enforcement activity.” They declined to add further details, but official sources say investigators will seek to establish whether the crew knew their ship, which appeared to lose power before the allision, had issues before they departed.

Erek L. Barron, U.S. attorney for Maryland, reaffirmed his commitment to the law in a statement, saying, “Whether it’s gun violence, civil rights abuse, financial fraud, or any other threat to public safety, we will seek accountability for anyone who may be responsible.”

The DALI is registered to Grace Ocean Ptd Ltd. and managed by the Singaporean firm Synergy Marine Group. At the time of the tragedy, Maersk had chartered the ship, which was en route to Sri Lanka from Baltimore.

10 Suspected Illegals Arrested on Child Porn, Human Trafficking Allegations.

Law enforcement officials in Chambers County, Texas, announced they have detained ten individuals at an East Texas home – suspected of being illegal immigrants from Asia and Guatemala – for allegedly possessing child pornography. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) further alleges the house, located 33 miles east of Downtown Houston, was being used to facilitate human trafficking.

The Chambers County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) says the suspects were detained and taken into custody after a Thursday morning raid. The operation necessitated forced entry after occupants declined to allow officers access to the property. According to a Fox News report, Homeland Security officials are still working to determine the legal status of the arrested individuals.

Government officials say the operation was prompted by information gleaned from the Internet Crimes Against Children database, which suggested possible child pornography downloads associated with the location. Bryan Baker, a CCSO Captain, emphasized the local law enforcement’s commitment to maintaining zero tolerance for such illegal downloads.

Inside the house, law enforcement encountered ten people suspected to be illegally residing in the country, as well as multiple electronic devices. The officers also found supplies commonly associated with restaurants at the scene.

Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) assisted local officers at the scene. All suspects are said to have been transported to the Chambers County Jail, where they await processing by federal agents. Currently, criminal charges against the suspects have not been made public. The CCSO noted that the investigation into potential human trafficking or human smuggling, among other crimes, is ongoing.
