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.”

Senator Compares Parents At School Board Meetings to Jan. 6 Rioters.

Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) likened vocal parents who have expressed their anger with left-wing policies at local school board meetings to the protestors who rioted at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Kaine — who served as Hillary Clinton‘s running mate during the 2016 presidential election — made the remarks during a community event in Dumfries, Virginia, last Friday.

“I realized when I was barricaded in the Capitol on January 6 when it was under attack that the tension right now in this country, and in this world, is between those who will stand up for others and those who want to tear us down or tear us apart,” Kaine told the few supporters in attendance. He continued: “You see it at school board meetings when people come and raise hell at these school board members who are just trying to do the very best they can. There is a loud energy around tear-us-down and tear-us-apart.”

Hillary Clinton’s former running mate went on to accuse former President Donald Trump of being “the greatest tear down artist in the history of American politics.”

The comments come three years after the parental rights issue catapulted Republican Glenn Youngkin into the Virginia governor’s mansion. Youngkin rode a wave of voter anger over Virginia schools embracing transgender and DEI ideologies to victory over former Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe in 2021. Analysis of election data shows that educational policy was, for many voters, a determining factor in Youngkin’s election win.

School boards in Virginia continue to face criticism over their management of transgender policies and the teaching of critical race theory. This controversy spilled over in Loudoun County last year, resulting in an entirely new school board being elected in November 2022.

GOP Rep Says ‘Wall Street Journal Captured By Left.’

During a Congressional hearing on Thursday with former CBS News reporter Catherine Herridge, Congressman Dan Bishop (R-NC) raised concerns about left-wing political bias within American corporate media outlets, including The Wall Street Journal. “My observation — and I’m a Republican, so it’s partisan I guess in part — but I think you look at the stats, I would suggest the American people see it this way, CBS News is among the corporate behemoth media outlets, all of which seem to be captured by one side of the American political spectrum,” the North Carolina Republican said.

Bishop added, “You’ve worked for one of those. Maybe Fox News one on the other side, but CBS, NBC, Wall Street Journal…” At this point, the Congressman paused, appearing to consider his statement before continuing, “Well, largely, yes. Washington Post, New York Times, all of the big media seems to be captured by one side,” he concluded.

Responding, Herridge stressed the need for ideological diversity in America’s newsrooms. “I worked at ABC News, I worked at Fox News, and I worked at CBS News, and I brought the same approach at every place that I worked, which is that it’s about accountability journalism on the left and on the right and representing diverse points of view,” the former CBS reporter said.

While viewed ostensibly as a conservative-leaning publication, The Wall Street Journal has come under fire for being overly hostile to former President Donald Trump — including its uncritical coverage of the debunked Steele Dossier. The Rupert Murdoch-owned newspaper has also been criticized for publishing Chinese Communist Party propaganda.

The EU Will Include Abortion In Its ‘Charter of Fundamental Rights.’

The European Parliament voted to enshrine abortion as a right in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union on Thursday. The resolution, stipulating universal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights, including abortion, passed 336 to 163 with 39 abstentions.

The resolution proposes adding the following language to the Charter: “Everyone has the right to bodily autonomy, to free, informed, full and universal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights, and to all related healthcare services without discrimination, including the access to safe and legal abortion.”

The Socialists and Democrats, Renew Europe, Greens, and The Left groups headed the resolution. MEP Soraya Rodríguez Ramos (Renew), described a perceived global retreat on women’s sexual and reproductive rights, positioning the EU to reverse the trend.

However, it is unlikely that the resolution will be accepted by the European Union. Such amendments to the EU Charter require unanimous endorsement from all 27 member nations, a steep hill to climb considering the divergent abortion regulations across the member states that often reflect deeply held cultural beliefs. In countries like Hungary, Malta, and Poland, abortions are heavily regulated, while others, like France, have protected the right constitutionally.

Opponents of the resolution call attention to the national autonomy of member states and the dangers of EU overreach. Critics caution that the resolution’s dismissal of the ‘conscience clause,’ allowing doctors to personally object to providing abortions, could impinge on individual rights.

The debate over abortion in the EU mirrors that in the United States, where it centers on the extent to which abortion should be regulated at the federal level or left up to individual states.
