KASSAM: Migrant-Filled London ‘Widely Unrecognizable From Even Ten Years Ago.’

The National Pulse Editor-in-Chief Raheem Kassam says the British capital of London is “widely unrecognizable from even ten years ago,” and “the idea of public safety has gone out of the window.” Speaking to Charlie Kirk on new research estimating around one in twelve London residents are illegal immigrants, and a past viral interivew he gave on the capital turning into a “shithole” under Mayor Sadiq Khan, Kassam lamented: “You’re seeing mass stabbing events, shootings. Yes, that’s right, we actually have shootings in the United Kingdom, much to the chagrin of the Second Amendment haters out there.”

Kassam warned that there is no integration and no assimilation, and state-sponsored multiculturalism has led to migrant-dominated enclaves both in London and across large cities in Europe, a phenomenon he wrote about in his 2017 book No-Go Zones.

On an estimated one in twelve residents of London being revealed to be illegal migrants, Kassam cautioned that such numbers come with a “plethora of issues.” These include higher levels of criminality, higher levels of homelessness, and higher levels of human trafficking and sex trafficking.

“The illegal migrant population has all those running rampant in their midst, and we continue to have a mayor and a city government that refuses to do anything about it,” he said.

President Trump Pardons Pro-Life Activists Imprisoned by Biden.

President Donald J. Trump is issuing pardons for 23 pro-life activists who were prosecuted and imprisoned by the Biden-Harris government. The move comes on the heels of Trump’s mass clemency order for over 1,500 January 6 Capitol riot defendants shortly after he was inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States on Monday.

“This is a great honor to sign this,” Trump said while signing the executive order:


The pardons come just before Friday as the 52nd annual March for Life is held in Washington, D.C. Among those receiving clemency are John Hinshaw, Jonathan Darnell, Lauren Handy, Calvin Zastrow, Herb Geraghty, Jean Marshall, Heather Idoni, Paulette Harlow, Bevelyn Williams, and Joan Bell. Each was sentenced to around two years or more in prison for violating the federal Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE Act), a statute signed into law by former President Bill Clinton that has dubiously been used to prosecute peaceful protesters outside abortion clinics.

“I had a great conversation this morning with [President Donald J. Trump] about the pro-life prisoners unjustly persecuted and imprisoned by the corrupt Biden Administration,” wrote Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO), a close ally of Trump, on Thursday, just hours before the President announced the clemency orders. “I urged him to pardon them swiftly. They have done nothing wrong!”

During Joe Biden’s term in the White House, his Department of Justice (DOJ) aggressively persecuted pro-life activists under the direction of Kristen Clarke, an assistant attorney general for the DOJ’s civil rights division. Clarke became infamous for pushing highly partisan prosecutions and stretching legal statutes to create the appearance of a crime when arguably none existed.

The radical assistant attorney general went so far as to prosecute an 89-year-old Yugoslavian communist concentration camp survivor for her participation in a pro-life protest.

WATCH: This Is What Is Delaying January 6 Defendant Releases, According to GOP Congressman.

Congressman Eli Crane (R-AZ) says a group of federal judges who presided over the prosecutions of January 6 Capitol riot defendants are causing the delay in their release. Earlier this week, President Donald J. Trump, just after taking the Oath of Office, granted a sweeping pardon to almost every individual charged—nearly 1,600 in total—by the Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) for participating in the 2021 riots.

“I just got off the phone with a pretty high-ranking official within the administration who has intimate knowledge of the situation and is also fighting to get these individuals released, who told me that the holdup—and many of you already know this—is a couple of the judges,” Rep. Crane says in a video he posted to X (formerly Twitter). The Arizona Republican continues: “Two that were mentioned are Judge Nichols and Judge Kelly. Keep in mind that these are some of the same individuals that put these individuals behind bars.”

“And one of the things I found most interesting about what this source told me was that these are the same guys that repeatedly will not hold gangbangers that are caught with guns that they’re not supposed to have on pre-trial detentions. So many of the most dangerous criminals here in Washington, D.C. are being given a pass while these judges will not comply, and they’ve been slow-rolling the release of these January 6 prisoners.”

‘PAPERWORK ISSUES.’

Rep. Crane claims the Bureau of Prisons is “ready to go” on releasing the remaining individuals pardoned by President Trump but is still awaiting the signed paperwork from the federal judges overseeing the January 6 cases. While a number of the pardoned January 6 defendants have been released, many still remain in prison.

Since the clemency announcement, social media has been rife with speculation that Washington, D.C.’s Democratic mayor, Muriel Bowser, or the Metropolitan Police Department are behind the delays. However, Rep. Crane’s claim adds credence to speculation that paperwork issues and certification of the pardons are the main reason why some January 6 defendants remain in prison.

One in Twelve Londoners Are Illegal Immigrants.

A recent study suggests that nearly 600,000 illegal immigrants may be residing in London, England, according to estimates by Edge Analytics and Leeds University for Thames Water, a leading utility provider. The analysis indicates that the illegal alien population ranges from approximately 390,000 to 586,000.

The study utilized data from sources including the Office for National Statistics (ONS), the London School of Economics (LSE), and Pew Research, alongside National Insurance registrations for non-European Union (EU) nationals over a nine-year period. Despite this comprehensive approach, the study did not account for the over 100,000 migrants who have crossed the English Channel since 2017, suggesting the true number of illegal aliens is even higher.

Even according to official statistics, the White British population in London had collapsed to just 36.8 percent in the 2021 census.

Overall, the report estimates that over a million illegal migrants reside in the United Kingdom, with 60 percent located in London. The presence of such a large number of illegal aliens may be influencing London’s housing market, where high demand has escalated average monthly rents to over £2,200 (~$2,685). This illegal population could also be linked to London’s crime issues and failing city infrastructure.

Lawfare Begins: Federal Judge Temporarily Blocks Trump Order on Birthright Citizenship.

U.S. District Court Judge John Coughenour has temporarily blocked an executive order from President Donald J. Trump ending birthright citizenship for the children of illegal aliens and other migrants. The ruling, issued in Seattle, Washington, on Thursday, marks the beginning of what is anticipated to be a prolonged legal battle over the order’s constitutionality.

Judge Coughenour alleged the order is “blatantly unconstitutional” during a court session where attorneys from Washington state and the Department of Justice presented arguments. “I have difficulty understanding how a member of the bar could state unequivocally that is a constitutional order,” he told the Trump administration’s attorney, adding: “It boggles my mind.”

The 14th Amendment—ratified in 1868—states, “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” Originally intended to ensure the citizenship of freed slaves, many argue it was never meant to grant citizenship to absolutely anyone born on U.S. soil, stressing the “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” language. For instance, birthright citizenship does not apply to the children of foreign diplomats, and Native Americans did not receive citizenship until the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924.

Washington, Oregon, Arizona, and Illinois brought the case against President Trump’s order after Washington Attorney General Nick Brown and his counterparts filed a lawsuit on Tuesday, swiftly followed by a request for a temporary restraining order to halt the executive action. Another group of 18 states has initiated a similar lawsuit in Massachusetts, though they have not yet sought a preliminary injunction.

High Winds Fuel New Wildfires, Trigger Evacuations in L.A. Area.

California’s Santa Ana winds continue to fuel wildfires in the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area, with a new conflagration breaking out just 45 miles from downtown. Named the Hughes Fire, the wildfire spread quickly, consuming 10,000 acres in just a few hours on Wednesday.

While the Hughes Fire has forced the evacuation of around 30,000 residents, officials believe they can contain the blaze relatively quickly. The Santa Ana winds, which are critical to the wildfires’ growth into uncontrollable blazes, are not as strong as they have been in recent weeks. However, the persistence of the winds—which reached 70-90 miles per hour during the previous fires—is keeping local residents and officials on edge.

Earlier this month, massive wildfires caused billions of dollars in damage and killed at least 28 people as they raged through the Los Angeles suburbs. The Palisades Fire has so far burned around 24,000 acres and is now nearly 70 percent contained after first igniting over two weeks ago. Meanwhile, the Eaton Fire—which burned a large part of Altadena, scorching around 15,000 acres total—is nearly 100 percent contained.

Victims of the fires have been highly critical of state and local officials over their handling of the wildfires. Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) and Los Angeles’s Democratic Party Mayor, Karen Bass, have been especially the targets of ire.

Some residents are furious that Newsom’s Democratic administration sent resources—including “surplus” fire equipment, trucks, and water tankers—to Ukraine, while wasting money on DEI at home. These moves likely deprived local fire departments of additional tools that could have aided containment efforts.

Migrant-Background ‘Taylor Swift Party’ Kid Killer Gets 52 Years in Jail, Stabbed Girl 122 Times.

The Southport, England, child murderer who stabbed three children to death last year has been sentenced to a minimum of 52 years minus time already served as horrific details emerged regarding the killings. Axel Rudakubana pleaded guilty to the murder of Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, Bebe King, six, and Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, last July at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class. The 18-year-old, born to Rwandan immigrants, also pleaded guilty to trying to murder eight more children and two adults and trying to create the deadly biological weapon ricin.

The judge in the case, Mr. Justice Goose, said that Rudakubana would serve a minimum of 52 years in prison before becoming eligible for parole. However, he stated it was “likely” he would remain in prison for the rest of his life.

He lamented not being able to sentence Rudakubana to a so-called “whole life” order, with no possibility of parole, as he carried out the killings just days before his 18th birthday. All of the sentences for the various crimes will be served concurrently, meaning they will be served at the same time as each other.

During the sentencing, horrific details emerged about the killings, with one of the children being stabbed over 120 times by Rudakubana. Following his arrest, Rudukabana also made unprompted outbursts to police, saying things like “It’s a good thing those children are dead.”

Rudakubana was also noted as being highly disruptive during his appearance at Liverpool Crown Court, having to be removed when he claimed he was feeling ill. He was not present during his sentencing.

NOT TERRORISM, PROSECUTORS CLAIM.

Even though Rudakubana was found possessing al-Qaeda training manuals, prosecutors in the case stated there was no evidence he was motivated by political or religious causes and did not consider the killings an act of terrorism.

Police and the leftist Labour Party government knew of the training manuals for months but did not inform the general public until months after the killings took place.

The killing of the three girls provoked protests and riots against mass migration in England and Northern Ireland, which Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer blamed on the far right.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and the British corporate media are trying to redirect blame for the killings towards tech giant Amazon, questioning how Rudakubana was able to buy a knife from the online retailer. The Sun newspaper, owned by Rupert Murdoch, is even attempting to brand Rudakubana ‘The Amazon Killer.’

Zelensky Demands Deployment of US Troops to Ukraine to Deter Russia.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky claims that U.S.-led United Nations (UN) peacekeepers on the frontlines are critical to any cessation of hostilities with Russia. Speaking at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland, Zelensky said he would welcome peacekeepers from other European nations but stressed that without a U.S. presence, Russia would likely invade his country again.

“It can’t be without the United States… Nobody will risk without the United States,” Zelelensky said. France’s President Emmanuel Macron is also pushing for the deployment of peacekeepers under a multinational command. For the last year, Macron has pushed for varying degrees of military intervention in the conflict—even considering the direct deployment of the French military to aid Ukraine.

Late last year, the far-left Labour government in the United Kingdom said it is considering sending British troops to Ukraine to serve as military advisors and train Ukrainian soldiers. “The UK will step up our international leadership on Ukraine throughout 2025,” British Defence Secretary John Healey said in December last year, adding: “We will enhance our offer of training to Ukraine and provide battle-winning capabilities.”

However, not all European nations are on board with sending a multinational peacekeeping force. Finland—one of NATO’s newest members—has balked at the idea. Last month, the Finnish President, Alexander Stubb, stressed his European colleagues “should not get ahead of ourselves” when contemplating troop deployments to Ukraine.

Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald J. Trump is turning up the pressure on Russia’s President Vladimir Putin to come to the negotiating table and end his country’s invasion of Ukraine. On Wednesday, Trump threatened to escalate the economic isolation of Russia through additional sanctions and tariffs unless Putin begins peace talks.

Migrant Gang Linked to NFL Quarterback Joe Burrow’s Home Invasion.

Four illegals from Chile have been indicted for breaking into the home of National Football League (NFL) quarterback Joe Burrow. Authorities allege the suspects may be behind a string of similar robberies targeting wealthy homeowners.

The robbery took place on December 9 at Burrow’s home in Anderson Township, Ohio. The illegals stole memorabilia belonging to the Cincinnati Bengals quarterback while he was in Texas for a game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Ohio State Highway Troopers caught the four during a traffic stop, where police found Burrow’s memorabilia in their vehicle. Three of the illegals gave police fake IDs, while one, Alexander Esteban Huaiquil-Chavez, handed over a legitimate New York state ID.

Police say the robbery is part of a significant trend involving criminal groups from Central and South America who target the homes of wealthy people and professional athletes. Authorities note that the gangs are able to exploit a State Department travel program to get into the United States for up to 90 days to carry out their crimes. The U.S. Visa Waiver Program allows Chileans on business or tourism to enter the United States without thorough vetting.

Criminal gangs use sophisticated equipment to carry out their operations, including cell phone jammers.

Despite being obligated to conduct criminal background checks as part of the Visa Waiver Program, Chilean officials say such checks are not being performed properly. This allows long-time criminals to come to the U.S. and be considered first-time offenders if arrested.

Trump Treasury Pick Schools Bloomberg on Illegal Immigration.

Scott Bessent, nominated by President Donald J. Trump to serve as Secretary of the U.S. Treasury Department, is pushing back on mass immigration proponents who claim illegal immigration is a boon to the American economy. When pressed by Bloomberg Radio hosts with claims that the mass deportation of illegal immigrants would lower U.S. GDP by upwards of four percent and stunt job growth, the Trump Treasury nominee bluntly stated that illegal immigration actually erodes per capita GDP and lowers the quality of life for American citizens.

“Well, let’s go back because I find all of this pretty duplicitous. For my entire career, probably most of your entire lives, the academic economists said, ‘Oh no, absolutely, the unauthorized new arrivals do not put downward pressure on wages,” Bessent said. “Then, lo and behold, in this cycle—when we had the massive inflation—we get whether it’s eleven million new arrivals or, as President Trump thinks 21 million new arrivals, it does push down wages on the bottom quintile, which I think is abominable. These are working people, Americans, who are seeing their wages get pushed down.”

Bessent disputes Bloomberg’s claim that illegal immigration boosts American GDP, arguing: “If it were good, we’d just have a road from Tierra del Fuego to the Rio Grande and let everybody who wants to come in, in. We could double GDP, but per capita GDP per American would drop substantially. It’s about American citizens’ standard of living.”

The National Pulse has extensively reported on the economic impact of illegal immigration and the downward pressure it puts on American wages.
