Protesters confronted Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and her fiancé, Riley Roberts, during a visit to a Brooklyn movie theater on Monday. The camera-wielding demonstrators demanded Ocasio-Cortez label Israel’s military action against Hamas militants in Gaza a “genocide.”
”Just say the word,” they pressed, as AOC herself blasted the move as “fucked up.”

Vice President Kamala Harris demanded an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and urged Hamas to accept a proposed ceasefire deal.
“Given the immense scale of suffering in Gaza, there must be an immediate ceasefire, at least for the next six weeks,” Harris said during an address in Selma, Alabama, on Sunday.
Harris also demanded that Israel do more to allow the flow of humanitarian aid. “People in Gaza are starving,” she said. “The conditions are inhumane, and our common humanity compels us to act,” she continued. “What we are seeing every day in Gaza is devastating,” Harris said. “We have seen reports of families eating leaves or animal feed. Women giving birth to malnourished babies with little or no medical care. And children dying from malnutrition and dehydration. As I have said many times, too many innocent Palestinians have been killed.”
Harris’s comments came a day before she was set to meet with Israeli Minister Benny Gantz and represent the most forceful call for a ceasefire — and strongest condemnation of Israeli actions — yet to come from a Biden regime official. Harris also defended “the right of the Palestinian people to dignity, freedom, and self-determination,” suggesting she may support a unilateral declaration and creation of a Palestinian state without Israeli involvement or approval.

The United States is set to begin outsourcing some weapons production to countries like Australia, Japan, Poland, and India after the military’s stockpiles have become dangerously low from supplying munitions to Ukraine and Israel, among other nations. Australia, specifically, will soon become a major supplier of artillery shells and multiple guided missiles for the U.S. military. The move to outsource U.S. weapons production directly contradicts claims by the Biden government that military aid for Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel would serve to boost U.S. manufacturing jobs.
Australia has made significant investments in weapons manufacturing over the past few years in an effort to become a major hub for U.S. defense production. According to the Pentagon, foreign-produced weapons are still required to meet U.S. government specifications and standards. Most of the weapons produced in Australia will go to replenish U.S. stockpiles, be sent to Ukraine, or be sold to countries like Taiwan.
The Biden government has downplayed foreign weapons production as lawmakers on Capitol Hill have continued to debate a $95 billion foreign military aid supplemental funding package. President Joe Biden and his Democrat allies in Congress have insisted the legislation would serve as a boon for U.S. domestic manufacturing.
“While this bill sends military equipment to Ukraine,” Biden said in late February, before claiming: “…it spends the money right here in the United States of America in places like Arizona, where the Patriot missiles are built; and Alabama, where the Javelin missiles are built; and Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Texas, where artillery shells are made.”

Far-left outlet Mother Jones is asking if Israel should be held accountable for “ecocide” in remarks similar to those advanced by the government of Ukraine regarding Russia at the tail end of 2023.
“When reports emerged in late December that the Israeli military planned to pump seawater into the underground tunnel networks used by Hamas fighters in Gaza, scientists and advocates around the world raised alarm over the prospect of an environmental disaster,” writes author Lylla Younes.
She continued: “Flooding the tunnels threatened to permanently salinate the land, making it impossible to cultivate crops. Seawater could also seep underground and into an aquifer that the majority of Gazans rely on for water. Palestinian rights groups and protesters around the world were already accusing the Israeli government of committing genocide against the Palestinians, with more than 20,000 killed by Israeli bombings on Gaza since Hamas’ attack on southern Israel last October. Now, another term has entered the conversation: “ecocide.””
The article notes:
The term “ecocide” was coined during the Vietnam War after the US military sprayed more than 90 million liters of Agent Orange and other herbicides across South Vietnam’s countryside. The chemical’s 20-year half-life can increase to more than 100 years if it’s buried beneath the soil, and people in southern Vietnam are still living with its effects more than half a century later. After visiting the region in the early 1970s and observing the chemicals’ devastating effects, a group of American scientists and legal experts began a campaign against using herbicide as a weapon of war. Their efforts led to an executive order by President Gerald Ford in 1975 renouncing the use of defoliants in future wars and to a UN convention in 1978 prohibiting the “hostile use of environmental modification techniques.”
There is currently no formal ability to hold a nation accountable for “ecocide” though far-left campaigners have been embarking on a campaign to do so since 2020.

The Biden campaign is “freaking out” about an anti-Biden protest vote within Michigan’s Arab and Muslim communities.
With former President Donald Trump topping polls there, the prospect of losing the support of Michigan’s Arabs and Muslims — a key voting block in the Wolverine State — has the Biden campaign on edge. “They are freaking out about the uncommitted vote,” a Democrat close to Biden toldPOLITICO.
Biden’s support for Israel throughout most of its current conflict with Hamas has alienated the Arab and Muslim communities in Michigan, spawning at least two organized campaigns against the Democratic incumbent: the “Abandon Biden” campaign and the “Listen to Michigan” campaign, which is encouraging Michiganders to vote “uncommitted” in today’s primary.
Increasing frustration with Biden within the Arab and Muslim communities has gone hand in hand with the Biden regime’s decreasing support for Israel. Despite Biden’s soft anti-Israel posturing, however, Michigan’s Arabs and Muslims do not appear to be convinced.
An elected official from Michigan who acted as an intermediary between the Biden regime and Arab and Muslim community leaders says the Biden campaign’s efforts to get out the Arab and Muslim vote are still falling flat. “The Biden campaign wants me to tell you that any vote not for Biden is a vote for Donald Trump,” the official said, but “they’re like, ‘Donald Trump never killed us, Joe Biden killed our families.'”

Former President Donald Trump appears to be closing the gap with Joe Biden among young voters. In 2020, the former President lost millennial and Gen Z voters by around 20 points. However, the Biden government’s hawkish support for Israel, the sluggish domestic economy, and skyrocketing housing prices appear to be driving the youth vote away from the Democratic Party.
A December 2023 New York Times/Siena College poll indicated Trump may be winning the 18 to 29-year-old voter demographic. According to the survey, he leads the age category with 49 percent, compared to Biden’s 43 percent. In the same poll, Biden held only a slight edge among Millennials in the age 30 to 44 demographic. A survey for Axios by Generation Lab of voters between 18 and 34 shows Biden with only a four-point lead over Trump (52 percent to 48 percent).
The cause of youth dissatisfaction with President Biden appears to be driven by a combination of foreign and domestic policy issues. Biden’s support for Israel in the ongoing war with the Hamas terrorist group has undoubtedly played a role in the President’s collapse in support among young voters. However, the weak economy, hot housing market, and Biden’s broken student loan promises may also play significant roles.
Housing affordability in the United States has hit an all-time low. The monthly mortgage payment shot up nearly 20 percent in 2023 compared to the previous year, hitting an average of $2,600. Additionally, continued economicrecessionfears have likely played a role in Biden’s low approvals across all voter demographics.

Fired MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan has demanded Joe Biden stop Israel’s operations against Hamas, accusing the Democrat of “inaction and complicity” in “genocide” and suggesting he is letting “hundreds of wives and children” like his son Beau, daughter Naomi, and first wife Neilia die.
“Joe Biden, like [Ronald] Reagan before him, could end the current carnage with a single phone call to Benjamin Netanyahu,” Hasan declared in the far-left Guardian, praising the late Republican for having referred to Israel’s bombing of Beirut in 1982 as a “holocaust.”
Hasan complained it was “disingenuous nonsense” to claim the White House could not force Israel to abandon its fight against Hamas, agreeing with another commentator that Biden has adopted a position of “feigned powerlessness” while authorizing “self-serving leaks” suggesting he is unhappy with Netanyahu.
“The truth is that the commander-in-chief of the richest country in the history of the world is far from powerless and, like every commander-in-chief before him, possesses plenty of leverage,” Hasan insisted, demanding Biden cut off Israel’s supply of U.S. intelligence and munitions.
“[W]here is [Biden’s] horror over the ongoing terror in Gaza?” Hasan demanded. “Could it be that Biden places less value on Arab lives than… Reagan?”
Hasan’s own views on the value of human life are controversial, as he previously compared non-Muslims to “animals.”
Before MSNBC hired him, Hasan worked for Al Jazeera — a news network owned by Qatar, which hosts much of the senior leadership of Hamas.

Pressed on whether it is time for Joe Biden to get “tough on Israel,” Nancy Pelosi has boasted she has “protected” Palestinians in her district from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and attacked the Israeli prime minister.
“You know, I have a lot of Palestinians in my district, and I’ve protected them from the FBI going to Arabic bookstores, I’ve protected them after 9/11 to bring them together, we all were in the streets against the Muslim ban,” said the former House Speaker, mischaracterizing Donald Trump’s ban on travel to the U.S. from seven Muslim-majority countries where terrorist organizations controlled swathes of territory.
Pelosi may have been seeking to restore her reputation among Muslim voters, which was damaged after she claimed pro-Palestinian demonstrators protesting for a ceasefire were peddling “Mr. Putin’s message” and urged the FBI to investigate them.
The 83-year-old also took aim at Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, claiming she “had it with Netanyahu years ago, I mean, really, not trying to make peace or anything all along.”
She suggested she much preferred President Isaac Herzog, saying: “[H]e’s a decent person, he’s not Netanyahu.”

Our Revolution, the progressive political action organization birthed from Senator Bernie Sanders’s 2016 presidential campaign, is urging some 312,000 members to pressure Joe Biden to “change course” on the Israel-Gaza war. This includes 87,000 Michiganders, who are asked to vote ‘Uncommitted’ in the Great Lake State’s Democratic primary on February 27th.
“Our Revolution is planning to send an email to 87,000 members in Michigan and to about 225,000 supporters in other states, encouraging them to vote Uncommitted in the state’s Feb. 27 primary to ‘push Biden to change course on Gaza now’,” the New York Timesreports.
“I am working with some people who feel like they will never vote for Joe Biden, but there are many, many, many I feel will vote for Joe Biden on Nov. 5 if he changes course,” explained Andy Levin, a signatory to the letter who claims the pressure campaign “is the best way [to] help Joe Biden.”
Biden also faces pressure from Arab-Americans in Michigan, with dozens of Muslim officials backing the new ‘Listen to Michigan’ initiative aimed at convincing primary voters to turn in a protest vote against him during the primary.
Establishment Democrats are rallying around the President, however, and attempting to use Donald Trump to scare primary voters into falling in line behind him.
“There’s a lot at stake in this upcoming election, and I would just encourage people not to lose sight of that, too,” said Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
“A potential second term for [Trump] would be very hard on all the communities that are still being impacted by what’s happening overseas as well, and that’s something that shouldn’t be lost on people’s calculation, too,” she added.

Humza Yousaf, the left-separatist First Minister of Scotland, is taking a vacation in Qatar, the Gulf dictatorship that hosts the most senior leaders of the Hamas terror organization.
Whether Yousaf, roughly equivalent to a U.S. state governor, intends to meet with the Qatari or Hamas leadership is unclear, but he has previously been reprimanded for holding unauthorized talks on the Israel-Hamas war with the President of Turkey.
He has previously argued a peace deal should be brokered through the Qataris. While his official stance on Hamas is that their terror raid on October 7th was an “atrocity,” he vowed the Scottish government would keep sending money to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine (UNRWA), whose staff participated in the attack, after the British central government withdrew its funding.
Yousaf is married to a Palestinian and had relatives in Gaza when the current conflict began. He is lobbying for Gazan migrants to be imported to the United Kingdom in general and Scotland in particular en masse, as Afghans and Syrians were in recent years.
Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf complained that Scotland was too white.
