Democrat Says Pro-‘Palestine’ Riot Outside DNC ‘Rattled’ Her More Than Jan 6.

A pro-Palestine demonstration outside the Democratic National Committee (DNC) building has left Rep. Debbie Dingell, D-Mich., feeling more “rattled” than the Jan. 6 Capitol riots. During the protest, exits were blocked and clashes ensued between the police and protestors, causing Dingell to be temporarily trapped inside the Capitol Hill office building. Multiple officers reported injuries from the violent confrontation, including being punched and pepper-sprayed, according to police reports.

“This rattled me more than January 6th (attack) did,” Dingell told The Detroit News. “I was scared. Someone is going to get hurt at one of these things. They can get out of control.”

The demonstrators, numbering approximately 150 according to Capitol Police, were advocating for a ceasefire in the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. However, the protest escalated into violence. Video footage from the scene indicates that several protestors engaged in shoving matches with police officers. There were also alleged attempts at breaching the DNC building by some participants.

The congresswoman was confined inside the building for about an hour during the disturbing event. House Democratic leadership later conceded that the protest “exceeded a peaceful demonstration.”

WATCH: Trump Mocks ‘Golden Showers’ Dossier at Iowa Rally.

Former President Donald Trump made light of the 2016 “pee pee dossier” allegations during a speech in Iowa this weekend, quipping about the lurid claim that he solicited “golden showers” from prostitutes in Moscow. The debunked dossier, compiled by disgraced ex-British intelligence officer Christopher Steele, also suggested Trump conspired with Russia to secure the 2016 election victory.

Speaking to supporters in Fort Dodge, Trump brushed off the allegations humorously. He said, “I’m just ‘not into golden showers.’ They said it was four hookers. You think that was good that night to go up and tell my wife: ‘It’s not true, darlin’. I love you very much. It’s not true.'”

The former president continued to jest about his wife’s response, “Actually that one she didn’t believe because she said, ‘He’s a germaphobe, he’s not into that,’” Trump shared. “‘He’s not into golden showers,’ as they say they called it.” He wrapped up his story adding, “I don’t like that idea … I thought that would be a big problem, I was going to have a rough night, but that one she was very good on.”

Palestinian Officials Ban Christmas Decorations in Bethlehem, Christ’s Birthplace, to ‘Honor’ Hamas ‘Martyrs’.

Palestinian officials are taking apart Christmas decorations in Bethlehem, the city of Christ’s birth, and will not allow the tree and lights traditionally put up over the holiday to go up.

“Bethlehem Municipality crews [are] dismantling of Christmas decorations installed several years ago in the city’s neighborhoods and removing all festive appearances in honor of the martyrs and in solidarity with our people in Gaza,” the officials stated.

“The reason is the general situation in Palestine; people are not really into any celebration, they are sad, angry and upset; our people in Gaza are being massacred and killed in cold blood,” a spokesman for the municipality explained to the British press.

“Therefore, it is not appropriate at all to have such festivities while there is a massacre happening in Gaza and attacks in the West Bank,” he added.

Over the last 50 years, Christians have declined from being over 80 percent of Bethlehem’s population to less than 20 percent, and they have received significant harassment from the Palestinian Authority and local Muslims despite an official policy of toleration.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams Establishes Legal Defense Fund Amid FBI Probe.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has created his own legal defense fund, The Eric Adams Legal Defense Trust, amid ongoing investigations surrounding his mayoral campaign. The purpose of the fund is to enable the mayor to receive donations of up to $5,000 outside of the standard campaign period. The law requires Adams to disclose contributors who donate $100 or more, and prohibits his government subordinates and anyone doing business with the city from donating.

The fund’s creation is in response to a probe by the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York related to the alleged influx of foreign funds into Adams’s 2021 mayoral race. An affidavit signed by Adams, posted by the city’s Conflicts of Interest Board, says the trust is necessary to cover legal costs linked to these inquiries. Peter Aschkenasy, a veteran restaurateur who presided over a nonprofit tied to Adams’s former Brooklyn Borough President role, will serve as the fund’s trustee.

The establishment of the fund follows the FBI’s seizure of two smartphones and an iPad from Adams, part of an extensive inquiry into public corruption allegations, including whether illegal overseas donations were made to his campaign. Last month, the FBI searched the home of one of Adams’ chief fundraisers, Brianna Suggs. Adams, who has consistently denied any wrongdoing, is also under investigation regarding potential ties to a Brooklyn construction firm associated with Turkey and a Washington D.C.-based university with Turkish connections. Investigators are examining whether Adams pressured city authorities to open a Manhattan office to serve as the Turkish consulate. In July, six individuals were charged with using straw donations to contribute to his 2021 campaign.

The BLM ‘Journalist’ Who Incited Jan 6 & Recorded Ashli Babbitt’s Killing Has Been Convicted.

Black Lives Matter activist John Sullivan, a.k.a Jayden X, has been convicted of felony obstruction of an official proceeding, civil disorder, and five other charges for his actions on January 6th, when he entered the U.S. Capitol and recorded the killing of Ashli Babbitt by the U.S. Capitol Police.

Sullivan, 29, had claimed he was in the capitol as a citizen journalist, telling jurors he was “only observing” and “there to document.”

Prosecutors were able to prove the BLM agitator had incited protestors, however, pulling up quotes of him saying “I brought my megaphone to instigate s**t” and boasting he was going to “make those Trump supporters f**k s**t up.”

Prior to his conviction, Sullivan’s activities on Jan 6 had proven a substantial windfall, with legacy media outlets including CNN, NBC, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), and Left/Right Productions paying him $77,000 for his footage of Lieutenant Michael Byrd shooting unarmed veteran Ashli Babbitt dead.

EXC – Trump Tells Moms for America: ‘When People Want God in Their Lives, It Works Out a LOT Better’.

Okay, you take a look at religion where it’s just not – COVID I think probably hurt it badly – but it’s just not what it was. When people have that feeling of God, they want God in their lives, it just works out a lot better. It also works out better for our country.”

Praising the work of Moms for America, which the 45th President called, “amazing,” he told Kraulidis: “You people do a great job.”

The full interview will be available on Monday, via Moms for America, and here at The National Pulse.

Senators Warn Biden Against Gaza Refugee Intake.

A group of Senators has sent a letter to President Joe Biden warning him against authorizing Deferred Enforcement Departure (DED) for Palestinian refugees currently in the United States and designating the Palestinian territories for Temporary Protected Status (TPS). In the latter, Sens. Vance, Lee, Rubio, and Rick Scott contend given the “…ongoing armed conflict in the Gaza Strip, and  related domestic protests by foreign nationals from the region, Palestinian aliens should not be incentivized to travel to, or remain in, the United States.”

“We ask that you remember your oath to protect the lives of American citizens and not import a population of potentially radicalized individuals into the United States,” the senators cautioned President Biden, before adding “In our humble opinion we should be finding ways to reduce the number of terrorist sympathizers in America, not increase them.”

Pro-Hamas protests have broke out across the United States over the past several weeks, the demonstrators demanding the U.S. government intervene and prevent Israel’s ongoing military operation to destroy the Hamas terrorist organization in control of Gaza. In Minneapolis, Minnesota an elderly driver was attacked by an angry, pro-Hamas mob and was forced to flee.

Late last month, a pro-Hamas protest lead by Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) turned into an insurrection as protestors stormed the Cannon House Office Building next ot the U..S. Capitol and briefly took over the buildings rotunda. At least one Capitol Police officer was injured by protestors.

A massive protest on the evening of Wednesday, November 15th saw pro-Hamas demonstrators attempt to storm the DNC headquarters in Washington, D.C. Demonstration organizers claim over 90 protestors were injured in the ensuing battle with the police. The U.S. Capitol police say six of their officers were injured in what can only be described as a siege of the DNC offices.

NEW DETAILS: Leftist Editor Boasted of Duping Young Boys into Sex, ‘Spitroast’ Them For Hours.

Slade Sohmer, former editor of The Recount, bragged in private text messages about nearly tricking a 14-year old boy into having sex in a public restroom. Following his arrest, police found evidence that Sohmer posed online as a teenage girl, offering to meet and engage in sexual intercourse with underage boys. Sohmer even admitted to attending the meeting he had set up, claiming the teen boy was “horny” and “bulging” because he thought he was meeting a girl. Sohmer says he did not go through with his plan to rape the child, claiming “I chickened out.”

Sohmer, who was hired by The Circus’ John Heilemann to run his far-left ‘Recount’ website, also boasted about using social media app SnapChat to convince a 15-year old boy, and in a separate incident a 13-year old boy, into performing live sex acts for him using the video and photo app. In another instance, he fantasized with another individual about ‘spit-roasting’ (a type of sexual act involving three individuals) a teenage boy.

Writing about another young boy, Sohmer texted a friend: “I’d love to show up outside his school and force him into our car and take him to a hotel and just use him for 48 hours”.

The left-wing editor and journalist was arrested last week in Massachusetts on suspicion of downloading and disseminating child pornography. When police examined Sohmer’s personal computer they uncovered over 1,300 pornographic images and videos – many of which are believed to involve underage children. At least eight of the underage victims seen in the videos and photos have been identified by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

Iceland Deploys MASSIVE Bulldozer to Dig Magma Trenches In Preparation for Volcanic Eruption.

Iceland is deploying one of the largest bulldozers around – the $1.5M, 104-ton Caterpillar D11, in an attempt to disrupt potential lava flows by excavating three-mile-long trenches. This operation, underway amid fears of an eruption from the Fagradalsfjall volcano, is a precautionary measure to minimize the potential strain on infrastructure. Fagradalsfjall is located in the south west of the country, near the capital of Reykjavík.

The defensive trenches will be located near the Svartsengi geothermal power plant, which provides hot water to a heating system servicing approximately 20,000 residents on the Reykjanes Peninsula and another 25,000 in neighboring communities.

In addition, Grindavik, a town adjacent to the volcano, continues to experience severe subsidence as magma amasses a few hundred meters beneath the surface. This has resulted in substantial infrastructural damage, including ruptured roads and buildings. A substantial defensive wall is currently under construction to safeguard the Svartsengi power plant from potential lava flows.

The region has experienced continuous seismic activity with over 400 tremors recorded since yesterday. The Geological Survey also reports widening of a 2,000-year-old fissure. The eastern section of Grindavik is reportedly without power due to potential ruptures in power lines caused by the earth’s continued movement. Experts warn that the magma, presently just 500 meters below the surface, may lead to an imminent eruption. While some are hopeful the magma may cool down and solidify, the constant tremors indicate that significant activity continues beneath the surface.
