NPR Editor Who Exposed Far-Left Bias Suspended Without Pay.

National Public Radio (NPR) has suspended veteran editor Uri Berliner after he published a scathing criticism of the news organization in The Free Press last week. Berliner’s commentary contented that NPR had abandoned any pretense of objective journalism and instead had become a willing mouthpiece for partisan propaganda pushed by the likes of Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA).

The news organization‘s executives suspended Berliner without pay for five days on Friday. They contended that his opinion editorial at The Free Press contravened company rules regarding contributions to external media outlets. NPR requires its journalists to receive company leadership approval before publishing content at a rival media outlet.

The veteran NPR editor’s revelations of rampant partisan political bias in news coverage have thrown the company into disarray, especially as additional scrutiny now mounts against the outlet’s new CEO, Katherine Maher. Appointed in March, Maher has led the taxpayer-funded broadcaster’s pushback against Berliner.

“Questioning whether our people are serving our mission with integrity, based on little more than the recognition of their identity, is profoundly disrespectful, hurtful, and demeaning,” she complained. The National Pulse has detailed several instances where Maher has demonstrated extreme left-wing bias herself, including posting anti-Donald Trump diatribes while serving as an executive at Wikimedia. Maher also claimed it would be unfair for her to leave the U.S. when Trump was elected President as she would be using her “cis white mobility privilege.”

NPR issued a “final warning” to Berliner in a memo, informing the editor that further policy breaches would result in his dismissal. Berliner’s former colleagues believe the veteran editor’s days are numbered at the taxpayer-funded news outlet. “It seems to me that it would be very difficult for him now at NPR,” one individual told Fox News.

Republicans Send Mayorkas Impeachment Articles to Senate.

Republican House leaders officially presented impeachment articles against President Joe Biden‘s Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Tuesday afternoon. The move comes after a group of conservative Senators had asked House Republicans to delay the transmission of the articles as they worked to prevent Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) from quickly moving to dismiss the charges.

At the heart of the impeachment articles are accusations that Mayorkas has consistently contravened laws passed by Congress regarding immigration and border security. The documents also allege Biden’s Homeland Security Secretary misled Congress through inaccurate statements about the condition of the nation’s borders, asserting they were secure when evidence and enforcement feedback from Border Patrol agents contradicted such claims.

The House GOP’s impeachment move against Mayorkas had to navigate numerous roadblocks before finally being adopted on February 13 earlier this year. Following his impeachment by the House of Representatives, Mayorkas issued a statement deflecting the allegations. The Homeland Security Secretary reiterated his commitment to ensuring border security and his dedication to public service in accordance with the law, dismissing what he termed as “false accusations.”

Defending his Homeland Security Secretary, President Biden said of the impeachment: “History will not look kindly on House Republicans for their blatant act of unconstitutional partisanship that has targeted an honorable public servant in order to play petty political games.”

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.

WATCH: Cops Shut Down Conference Headlined by Nigel Farage.

Law enforcement shut down the National Conservatism conference in Brussels, Belgium, the main power center of the European Union (EU). The conference was to be headlined by prominent right-wingers, including Brexit leader Nigel Farage, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, and Suella Braverman, the former British Home Secretary.

Socialist city mayor Emir Kir, a Turkish dual national, ordered the conference to be shut down. He complained, “The aim of this event is to bring together personalities from the media, academic and cultural world, as much as political figures who share a so-called ‘national conservative’ vision… among these personalities, there are several, particularly from the right-conservative, religious right and European extreme right.”

Police descended on the scene while it was ongoing, preventing people from entering the premises or returning if they left.

Orban, due to speak at the event tomorrow, said that “[t]he last time they wanted to silence me with the police was when the Communists set them on me in ‘88. We didn’t give up then and we will not give up this time either!”

House Lawmakers Look to Block Chinese Control Of U.S. Agriculture.

Reps. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) and Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) are pushing new legislation that would direct the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to formulate strategies to counter potential threats posed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to American agricultural supply chains. In addition, the bill would eliminate regulatory barriers that the lawmakers say are detrimental to promoting domestic agricultural production.

“China has captured significant market share for agricultural inputs that are vital to our domestic food supply, ceding our top adversary leverage and control,” Hinson said in an interview after announcing the legislation. She continued: “Iowa farmers have told me firsthand that if China decides to shut off U.S. access to these inputs, food production could slow to a halt.”

The CCP has made significant investments in global agriculture production in recent years, buying up large swaths of farmland worldwide and purchasing large stakes in agricultural-sector companies. These moves have raised concerns with federal and state lawmakers in the U.S., with several state governments moving to block further Chinese land acquisitions last year. Recent attempts by the Chinese company Fufeng Group to procure land in North Dakota for a corn mill project were blocked by local officials after the U.S. Air Force raised concerns about the project’s proximity to a nearby military base.

Supported by the top lawmakers on the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, the bill would require annual evaluations of the federal government to assess the health and safety of domestic agricultural supply chains and China’s potential influence over them. The new legislation comes amidst increasing concerns in Congress regarding China’s infiltration of the U.S. technology sector — as well as the pervasive influence of the TikTok social media app, owned by China-based technology conglomerate ByteDance.

Biden’s So-Called ‘Nuclear’ Border Option is Just Basic Trump-Era Policy.

The “nuclear option” being considered by Joe Biden to tackle the border crisis reportedly amounts to little more than reviving baseline Donald Trump administration policies.

While the White House has argued it cannot protect the border without the passage of a controversial Senate bill focused primarily on aid for Ukraine and Israel, rumors have circulated for weeks that Biden may take executive action to mitigate the crisis, which is hurting the Democrats in the polls.

Touted as a “nuclear option,” reports now indicate he would merely resort to section 212(f) of the federal code, previously used by Donald Trump to restrict immigration from several countries deemed to be terror risks, immigrants without health insurance, and immigrants in general during the coronavirus pandemic.

Section 212(f) empowers the President to “suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants” if their entry “would be detrimental to the interests of the United States.”

Biden has seemed indifferent as to whether or not any executive action actually stops the border crisis, however, telling Univision: “Some are suggesting that I should just go ahead and try it, and if I get shut down by the court, I get shut down by the court.” An outright majority of Americans believe he has been  “encouraging” illegal aliens to enter the United States to “create a permanent majority” for the Democrats.

Since is inauguration, the 81-year-old Democrat has overseen an influx of at least 9.4 million illegal aliens, on course to match all legal immigrants processed at Ellis Island from 1892 to 1954.

‘Death to America’ Chants in Chicago As Local Muslims, Leftists Laud Iran’s ‘Resistance.’

Hundreds of Islamists and far-left activists converged on the Teamsters Union headquarters in Chicago to learn anti-America and anti-Israel chants on Saturday. News of Iran’s mass drone and missile attack on Israel broke during the meeting, prompting cheers of support, followed by demands Israel and the U.S. refrain from retaliating.

News of the attack earned applause from the crowd of around 300 Islamists and leftist ideologues, most of whom sported N95 masks. “Iran is part of the arc of resistance because the enemies are Israel and the USA,” declared one attendee. She listed Hezbollah, Yemen, and the Syrian government as allies in that resistance, according to reporting by The Free Press.

Despite cheering the Iranian strikes, the meeting switched back to anti-war mode when Palestinian Community Network leader Hatem Abudayyeh warned they would “have to assume that the United States is going to try to retaliate against Iran,” prompting cries of “shame!”

Abudayyeh, whose house was raided by the FBI in 2010 amid an investigation into “material support of terrorism,” told the crowd it was “incumbent” on Americans to “stop the United States from expanding this war and hitting Iran.”

“We’ve got to be the strong, powerful anti-war movement that we are,” Abudayyeh said, prompting chants of “Hands off Iran!”

‘DEATH TO AMERICA!’ 

The Freedom Road Socialist Organization, represented at the meeting by an activist who called the October 7 attack on Israel a “good turn of events,” subsequently put out a statement headlined with the “Hands off Iran!” slogan, saying the U.S. and Israel “bear the entire responsibility for what is happening.”

Before the Iranian attack, Anti-War Committee Chicago organizer Shabbir Rizvi had taught around 80 enthusiastic attendees how to chant “Marg bar Israel” and “Marg bar America,” Persian for “Death to Israel” and “Death to America.”

His audience included at least one man wearing a Soviet flag.

REVEALED: MeidasTouch Contributor Is Ex-GOP Rep. and Jan 6 Committee Collaborator with Taste for ‘Bigfoot Erotica.’

MeidasTouch, the far-left news organization responsible for the “bloodbath” hoax, boasts former Republican legislator Denver Riggleman as a contributor. Riggleman previously won plaudits from the left for collaborating with the Democrat-dominated January 6 Committee, which employed him as a senior staffer.

Riggleman began his transformation into an anti-America First crusader after local party officials censured him for failing to oppose “out-of-control spending” or mass migration in Congress. He was also criticized for failing to support “traditional family values, and other conservative principles,” and in particular for officiating a homosexual wedding for two of his staffers. This helped precipitate a successful primary challenge by now-Rep. Bob Good in 2020.

Described as an “intel expert” on his MeidasTouch profile, Riggleman was best known as a comic figure prior to the aforementioned controversies, with his 2018 election campaign marred by revelations concerning his penchant for “Bigfoot erotica.”

Democrat opponent Leslie Cockburn unearthed social media posts by Riggleman featuring Bigfoot or Riggleman himself as Bigfoot with oversized genitals for a fictitious book about the cryptid’s “mating habits.”

Riggleman self-published at least two tomes on Bigfoot titled Bigfoot Exterminators, Inc. and Bigfoot… It’s Complicated. Cockburn claims she has read a third Riggleman book on Bigfoot titled Bigfoot Assassins, featuring a “key plot point about witches and menstrual blood.”

Bigfoot… It’s Complicated, published after Riggleman’s election, is “absolutely jam-packed with Bigfoot sex,” according to reviewers, with its very first chapter being titled, ‘A Discussion on Simian Genitalia.’

Riggleman claims in the book that he does not personally “dabble in monster porn,” though he plaintively asks: “How could someone kink-shame those gentle souls who take delight in the soulful, passionate moan of Sasquatch?”

MeidasTouch involves many unpleasant characters, including ‘Coach D,’ who believes America’s Founders were all white supremacist racist pedophiles.

Did You Know That YOU Are Subsidizing Democrat Electioneering?

Democrats are using a national network of non-profit, tax-exempt organizations to spearhead efforts to boost voter turnout among critical partisan demographics for the 2024 presidential election. Some non-profit groups even operate on federal grants, further entangling taxpayer dollars in partisan election operations. This effort is in tandem with the Biden government’s mandate that federal agencies enact plans to maximize voter registration and citizen participation in the election process.

In 2021, Biden signed Executive Order 14019 — which directs the various agencies and departments in his government to “consider ways to expand citizens’ opportunities to register to vote and to obtain information about, and participate in, the electoral process.” The National Pulse previously reported on these efforts, including the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)’s concerning relationship with Demos — a left-wing non-profit dedicated to ‘racial justice.’

Under the guise of a ‘public service,’ President Joe Biden’s order effectively incorporates the federal government in aiding Democrat turnout efforts. While the order claims agencies are to only work with ” approved, non-partisan third-party organizations,” that has not happened in practice. According to Demos, they expect to be able to add 3 million new voters to the 2024 election rolls — paid for by U.S. taxpayer dollars.

In addition to the direct collusion with partisan non-profits, the Biden government has also expanded work categories as part of student work-study programs to include students who are paid to help register voters in a non-partisan manner. Protect the Public’s Trust initiated legal action against the Biden government in mid-March after the Department of Education failed to comply with a FOIA request asking for documents pertaining to the work-study decision.

Antifa Trans Dude Indicted on Terror Charges for Bomb Plot Against Republicans.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has indicted Kyle Benjamin Douglas Calvert, a 26-year-old Alabama resident who identifies as transgender/nonbinary, on federal terrorism charges related to his alleged detonation of an explosive device filled with nails outside the Alabama Attorney General’s Office. Authorities apprehended Calvert — known to have posted Antifa-related content and expressed views endorsing violence against the Republican-led state government — last Wednesday.

The DOJ‘s investigation revealed Calvert had placed Antifa stickers near the crime scene, according to their press release. Court papers describe Calvert as a “dangerous” public threat due to “his inability to control his own violent, aggressive impulses.”

The National Pulse reported that Calvert had donated his improvised explosive device outside the Alabama Attorney General’s office in February. According to court filings by the DOJ, the suspect “added a substantial number of nails and other shrapnel to increase [the explosive’s] destructive capability.” In addition, the filing states that Calvert placed stickers promoting Antifa on state buildings. Court documents reveal that some of the stickers bore phrases like “ANTI-FASCISM IS COMMUNITY SELF-DEFENSE,” “ABOLISH PRIVATE PROPERTY,” and “EAT THE RICH.” Other stickers read “DEATH TO FASCISM,” “ARM THE HOMELESS,” “F–K WORK LET’S RIOT!” and “NEVER WORK.”

“[Antifa is] a group that law enforcement has a singular focus on, particularly based on their core set of values and beliefs, individuals that are willing to engage in violent behavior, completely contrary to the structure of our Constitution,” Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall told Fox News regarding the incident and subsequent indictment. He added: “It is a group that should be on the radar screen of law enforcement agencies across our state and as well as our nation, and are extremely disturbing and concerning to those of us who serve in public office.”
