Cops Shot by Venezuelan Illegal.

Two New York Police Department (NYPD) officers were shot early Monday morning by an illegal alien from Venezuela following an attempted traffic stop. The shooting occurred at approximately 1:40 AM at the intersection of 89th Street and 23rd Avenue. During the stop attempt, the suspect, identified as 19-year-old Bernardo Raul Castro-Mata, allegedly jumped off his scooter and fled on foot. As the officers pursued him, the suspect opened fire at them. They returned fire, hitting Castro-Mata in the ankle.

Both police officers were subsequently treated for their injuries and released from the hospital. One officer sustained a gunshot wound to the leg, while the other was saved by his bulletproof vest.

Donald Trump has warned of the rise in Venezuelan migrant crime, stressing the need to stop the ultra-violent Tren de Aragua gang, which also operates across Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, and Panama, from turning its foothold in the U.S. into an entrenched position.

The former president’s tough stance against crime has earned the endorsement of thousands of New York bodegas. He is polling surprisingly close to Joe Biden, who endorses pro-criminal policies, such as cashless bail, in the Empire State. Sixty-four percent of New Yorkers blame Biden for the migrant crisis, and 70 percent believe he is unfit for office.

Castro-Mata crossed into the United States through Eagle Pass, Texas, in July 2023. The burden imposed on law enforcement by criminal migrants has become enormous under Biden, with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) tasked with monitoring 617,000 illegals with criminal records or pending criminal charges — more than the entire population of the State of Wyoming.

Trump Warns of Public Outrage if Jailed: ‘There’s a Breaking Point!’

Former President Donald J. Trump said in an interview on Sunday that if he is sentenced to prison or house arrest following his recent conviction in New York City, it would be “tough for the public.” Responding to Democrats who argue he should be jailed over his politics, Trump insisted that he is the “opposite” of a threat to democracy.

When asked about the possibility of being sentenced to house arrest or jail time, Trump responded, “I’m okay with it,” but also noted, “I think it’d be tough for the public to take. At a certain point, there’s a breaking point.”

Touching on the case against him and the resulting guilty verdict, Trump remarked, “It’s weaponization of the Justice Department, of the FBI, and you know that’s all coming out of Washington. You may think it’s Bragg. Take a look at who opened the case. I’m not allowed to talk about it because I have a gag order.”

Trump mentioned that the situation has been more challenging for his family than for him personally.

Addressing his critics who label him a “threat to democracy,” Trump stated, “It’s their slogan. I’m a ‘threat to democracy.’ I’m the opposite.”

Trump is scheduled to be sentenced for the Manhattan case on July 11, which is just days before the Republican National Convention. The former Republican President, found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records last week by a Manhattan jury, could face several years in prison. Democrat-aligned Judge Juan Merchan, who presided over the trial, will also determine Trump’s sentencing.

Pakistani Migrant Tries To Mow Down School Kids: ‘I’m Going To Kill All the Jews.’

A Pakistani migrant in New York was arrested after he allegedly jumped a curb and attempted to mow down a group of students and rabbis outside a Jewish school in Brooklyn. Asghar Ali, 58, reportedly slammed on his brakes before turning his car around and accelerating toward the group outside the Mesivta Nachlas Yakov School in Canarsie, according to Fox 5.

Witnesses alleged that the driver was yelling antisemitic slurs. He also yelled, “I’m going to kill all the Jews.” Police say Mr. Ali was driving a white Ford sedan on Glenwood Road before turning east on 55th Street, where he allegedly drove towards the pedestrians on Wednesday.

Mr. Ali reportedly attempted to flee the scene but was apprehended by community members and police. No one was injured in the attack, police said. A police report stated that five victims were allegedly targeted, including three 18-year-old men, a 41-year-old man, and a 44-year-old man.

Mr. Ali, a Pakistani immigrant who drives a cab, reportedly has a history of mental illness and four prior arrests. Simon Gifter, a freelance journalist at the police station during Ali’s detainment, stated that he heard the suspect ranting inside the facility. “I was outside and I heard him screaming non-stop like a maniac,” Gifter told ABC7.

Jewish community leader Leon Goldenberg told local news that Jewish organizations in the city feared such attacks in the wake of Israel’s ongoing military action in Gaza.”There is a real fear in the community that this is just one incident and that something more tragic will happen. Much more tragic,” he said.

Muslim migrants across the West have committed violent crimes in the name of opposing Israeli actions in Gaza. In April, an Afghan migrant in the UK stabbed a 70-year-old to death in the name of Gaza.

WATCH: MAGA New Yorkers Heckle Fleeing Robert De Niro.

Robert De Niro crumbled under pressure after holding a car crash presser in New York City alongside January 6 cop turned failed Democrat congressional candidate Harry Dunn, getting into a shouting match with hecklers and then fleeing the scene.

“You are gangsters!” De Niro shouted at Donald Trump supporters in the Big Apple. The 80-year-old Meet the Fockers actor tried to play the tough guy when he was called out for being washed up, screaming “Fuck you!” at the crowd.

He wilted quickly under a torrent of New York vitriol. One heckler in a MAGA hat yelled, “You’re a sofie! You’re a nobody! Your movies suck! You’re trash! You’re done after this, my guy!”

A woman concurred: “You’re a punk! You’re only a wise guy in the movies!”

“Don’t start crying on us, now,” a third heckler chimed in as De Niro shuffled away, surrounded by bodyguards with their hands on his shoulder and arms around his waist.

De Niro, Dunn, and others had been delivering anti-Trump speeches as the former president’s Manhattan trial drew to a close. The actor wailed that a reelected Trump would “never leave” office and “could destroy the world” while being drowned out by a car alarm.

Even Ron Filipkowski, editor-in-chief of the Joe Biden-linked MeidasTouch hoaxer organization, appeared embarrassed by the De Niro presser. He said the actor should “Do something else somewhere else some other time.”

WATCH: Are Dems Covering De Niro’s Tax Bill and Ex-Wife’s Exorbitant Lifestyle?

Democrat donors may want to start asking questions about how the party spends their money after Robert De Niro’s inept presser on behalf of the Joe Biden campaign in New York, according to The National Pulse’s Editor-in-Chief Raheem Kassam.

“I’m starting to wonder, where is all this money going from the Biden campaign going? They claim to be raising so much money, hundreds of millions of dollars; they have this huge war chest. I think the Biden campaign donors need to start asking… is the money going to Robert De Niro to go and do table reads of scripted campaign lines outside a Manhattan courthouse?” Kassam said on Stephen K. Bannon’s War Room show.

“De Niro’s been offloading some of his properties recently… I pulled up this 2021 story, which says he still has a huge outstanding tax bill with the federal government. He’s being forced to work, he says, to uphold his ex-wife’s lifestyle,” Kassam continued.

“So, is this what’s happening here? I think Democrat donors need to start asking that question. Are they paying Robert De Niro millions of dollars to go outside that courthouse and read campaign talking points?”

The stunt may have backfired on the Democrats, with Kassam observing De Niro looked “rattled” during his remarks. Trump supporters in the Big Apple heckled the actor. They drowned him out with a car alarm, causing him to stumble over his words and become visibly agitated as he claimed the former president “could destroy the world” if reelected.

WATCH: Trump Slams ‘Mobs of Migrants Giving America the Middle Finger’ in ‘Third World’ New York.

Donald Trump took aim at the “radical left pro-crime policies” that have reduced his hometown of New York City to a shell of its former self at a diverse and well-attended rally in the Bronx.

“Throughout my life, I’ve seen New York through good times and bad,” Trump said, recalling boom times, market crashes, terrorist attacks, and more.

“But I’ve never seen it quite like this. We have filthy encampments of drugged-out homeless people… We have lunatics killing innocent bystanders by pushing them onto the railroad tracks for sport… Our subways are squalid and unsafe, the ceiling tiles are falling down, and they look worse than a Third World country,” Trump lamented.

“The medians of our highways are crumbling; our sidewalks are littered with garbage: bottles and trash, but worst of all, the discarded needles from people that so desperately are in need of help,” he continued.

“And we have mobs of migrants fighting our police officers and giving America the middle finger,” he added.

“But we are not going to let this continue… Together, we are going to Make New York City Great Again, and simultaneously, we are going to Make America Great Again,” he vowed, earning sustained chants of “USA! USA!” and “We love Trump!”

Pledging to support law enforcement and be tough on crime, Trump urged rally attendees to remember that “black, Hispanic, [and] Asian people need this protection and safety more than anyone else.”

Stances like this have seen the former president earn the support of thousands of predominantly Hispanic-owned bodegas, which have suffered as a result of criminal-friendly policies, such as cashless bail, that Trump has heavily criticized.

The former president was already within ten points of Joe Biden in the Empire State, traditionally a Democratic stronghold, in November.

Media Seethes as Black and Hispanic Voters Chant ‘Build the Wall, Send Them Back!’ at Bronx Trump Rally.

The corporate media has expressed alarm at the level of support for Donald Trump at a rally in the Democratic stronghold of the Bronx, New York City. They were particularly worried about the “more diverse crowd” that turned out to see him.

“[M]any Black and Hispanic voters [were] sporting bright red ‘Make America Great Again’ hats and other Trump-themed apparel ordinarily scarce in deep-blue New York City,” notes The New York Times. 

The NYT expressed irritation that rally attendees “did not appear to object to [Trump’s] broad assertion, which has no evidence, that those coming across the border were mentally ill criminals mounting an invasion of the United States.”

The newspaper observed that the “approving reception for such anti-immigrant messaging was particularly striking in New York, a sanctuary city.” The crowd chanted, “Build the Wall” and “Send them back!”

Polls indicate that 84 percent of New Yorkers regard the border crisis as a serious issue. Sixty-four percent blame Joe Biden for it.

LOVE FEST. 

CNN also seemed shocked at Trump’s appeal in the Bronx. It noted there was “certainly a bigger crowd than I think Democrats would like to see, particularly given this is one of the bluest counties in the entire country!”

Trump himself was unsure how well he would be received. “I woke up, I said, ‘I wonder, will it be hostile or will it be friendly?’” he said. “[I]t was beyond friendly. It was a love fest.”

“I think it’s great, I think it’s dope,” said one black attendee of Trump’s decision to campaign in the Bronx. “[T]his is the first time a President has actually came to the hood… the hood hood. So, I respect that,” he added.

Black and Hispanic attendees had harsh words for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, whose congressional district includes parts of the Bronx. She had claimed Trump was not welcome in the neighborhood.

“I don’t think she should be here in the Bronx,” said one black woman, adding that Ocasio-Cortez had “done nothing for the Bronx.”

RFK’s Campaign Appears to Be Deceiving Voters To Gain Ballot Access.

Petition workers for the Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. independent presidential campaign appear to be misleading voters in New York City regarding the nature of their signature-gathering efforts. Several New York City residents say they’ve been approached by petitioners who claim to be gathering signatures for getting “independent candidates,” “progressive candidates,” or even “Joe Biden” on the state’s ballot. In actuality, these individuals are working on behalf of Kennedy and not any other candidates.

In one instance, traffic court judge Amy Bernstein was approached by a signature gatherer who had hidden Kennedy‘s name by folding it under the top of the clipboard. He told the judge he was gathering signatures for “independent candidates” to have ballot access. According to Bernstein, the only names visible on the petition were Kennedy‘s slate of electors — whose names would not be recognizable by most individuals.

New York State requires candidates to gather 45,000 signatures for presidential ballot access; the Kennedy campaign says they want to hit at least 100,000 signatures. Submitting signed petitions far above the legal requirement isn’t unusual. However, a large number of signatures are often invalidated, primarily because they are illegible.

Some Kennedy petition gatherers who’ve engaged in deceptive tactics admit they’re being paid by the campaign — or at least a campaign vendor. This suggests a supervisor is instructing them to hide Kennedy‘s name on the petitions, ostensibly to maximize the likelihood that a New York City resident would sign the form.

However, the Kennedy campaign denies having instructed the petitioners to engage in such deceptive tactics. Campaign manager Amaryllis Fox Kennedy — the candidate’s daughter-in-law and former CIA employee — told the New York Times that such deception is “utterly at odds with all of our intensive training and materials.”

London Will Get Influx of Skyscrapers, Will Look More Like Manhattan.

London’s skyline may soon begin to look a lot more like that of megapolis New York City. The 10th annual tall buildings report from the London-based think-tank New London Architecture found the city has almost 600 new skyscrapers either currently or soon to be under construction. If all the projects are completed, it would more than double the number of tall buildings completed over the last decade in Great Britain‘s capital.

“Tall buildings have changed the face of London substantially over the past 20 years and will continue to do so — the pipeline that NLA has tracked means there is at least 10 years’ supply that has already been defined,” New London Architecture’s co-founder Peter Murray said in a recent interview. He added: “London’s population continues to grow, passing the 10 million mark at the end of this decade. We still need tall buildings and NLA will continue to keep a close watch on what’s going on.”

London’s rising population and demand for additional office space are driving the upward surge in building construction. An influx of foreign investment and migrant labor has also helped fuel the construction boom. Once a sprawling low-rise city, London may increasingly resemble New York City’s Manhattan borough, where skyscrapers create long concrete and glass canyons towering over the streets below.

The New London Architecture report also found that The Shard is the favorite tall building among Londoners. Despite the appeal of some of the buildings and their unique architecture, not all city residents see the appeal. The report also found that nearly half of Londoners believe there are already too many tall buildings — a significant increase from the 32 percent who said the same in 2014.

ANOTHER Swanky NYC Hotel Overrun by Illegals, With U.S. National Guard Turning Away Tourists.

A chic hotel in the heart of New York City’s Broadway Theater District closed its doors and is now serving as temporary housing for illegal aliens. The Square Hotel, popular with tourists visiting Broadway, began housing illegal immigrants last year after it announced recently on social media that it would be closing its doors to the public.

“To our valued guests: it is with great sadness that we announce the Square Hotel will be closed for the foreseeable future,” the hotel posted on its Facebook page. They added, “We appreciate your patronage and hope to welcome you back someday soon.” The hotel’s post does not mention why it is closing or that the property is being used as a shelter.

Known for its highly touted Japanese restaurant and artistic decor, the hotel now has National Guard troops stationed outside. Additionally, new signage outside the hotel prohibits the chaining of motorbikes to posts and bike racks nearby. Online food delivery through apps like Uber and DoorDash has become a booming business for illegal aliens. They often use unlicensed and unregulated motorbikes. Likewise, most delivery apps do not require work permits for their drivers.

Critics contend that The Square Hotel is putting guaranteed profits from government contracts ahead of tourists. Additionally, the Roosevelt Hotel on Madison Avenue has engaged in a similar scheme. Dubbed the “new Ellis Island,” the Roosevelt Hotel converted much of its ballroom into a medical triage center and stockpiled supplies in its lobby for the illegal aliens housed there.
