TRUMP TRANSITION 2024/5

National Police Association Backs Kash Patel for FBI Director.

The National Police Association (NPA) is backing President-elect Donald J. Trump’s nomination of Kash Patel as the next Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), highlighting his extensive experience in national security and law enforcement. While working as Senior Counsel to the House Intelligence Committee, Patel earned respect within the law enforcement community for exposing misconduct and advocating for ethical oversight.

“The law enforcement community knows that effective leadership at the FBI is essential for building public trust and enhancing coordination across all levels of policing,” the NPA said in a statement. “Kash Patel’s proven record of leadership, expertise in counterterrorism and intelligence, and ability to navigate complex legal and operational challenges make him the ideal candidate to restore faith in the FBI’s mission and ensure it remains a steadfast ally to our nation’s police forces.”

Patel’s career includes dismantling international drug trafficking networks as a federal prosecutor. He also served as a legal liaison to the Joint Special Operations Command, where he strengthened partnerships across federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies.

He was recognized for his work tackling international terrorism under the Obama-Biden administration with a prestigious Central Intelligence Agency Award (HUMINT), and the Justice Department also recognized him with an AAG Award for Excellence in 2017.

“Kash Patel’s appointment as FBI Director would represent a pivotal moment for law enforcement,” the NPA stressed. “His proven record of leadership and dedication to ethical standards make him the ideal candidate to guide the FBI forward.”

Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, said earlier this week that “Every single one” of President-elect Trump’s incoming appointees “should be a Kash Patel of their department.”

Tim Walz’s Minnesota Swears in First Non-Citizen Cops, Including Hijab-Clad Somali Muslim.

The most populous city in Minnesota, controlled by Democratic vice presidential hopeful Governor Tim Walz, has sworn in its first non-U.S. citizen police officer. Lesly Vera, who was born in Mexico, took the oath of office in Minneapolis last week.

The move follows a policy change by the Minnesota Board of Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) in 2023, eliminating the citizenship prerequisite for law enforcement candidates. Under the new guidelines, candidates only need to be residents authorized to work in the U.S.

“Our 23 new officers include the first Somali-American woman to join the department and the first permanent resident. A police service that looks like our residents is better able to serve our residents, and I couldn’t be more proud of the department we’re building under Chief O’Hara,” Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said.

Elon Musk, CEO of X, expressed concerns about the move, noting the Roman Empire’s reliance on noncitizens in its military prior to its collapse.

Similar initiatives to put migrants in police uniforms are underway across the country. In the U.S. capital of Washington D.C., foreign nationals can even receive $25,000 signing bonuses.

Noncitizens can also run U.S. elections—despite technically being banned from voting in them—including Kelly Wong, a Chinese citizen appointed to the San Francisco Elections Commission.

Fox Claims a ‘Leading’ Cop Group Endorsed Kamala. It’s Actually a Gun Grab Group That Has Only Existed for 3 Months.

Fox News reporter Paul Steinhauser recently touted the endorsement of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris by Police Leaders for Community Safety, describing it as a “leading national law enforcement group” on par with the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), the International Union of Police Associations (IUPA), and the National Association of Police Organizations (NAPO), all of which have endorsed former President Donald J. Trump.

However, while the FOP, IUPA, and NAPO are many decades old and represent hundreds of thousands of police officers, Police Leaders for Community Safety is a mere “advocacy organization” that has only existed since June.

Steinhauser, who previously reported for the far-left Daily Beast and served as CNN‘s political editor, claims that Police Leaders for Community Safety is a “major law enforcement group” and accepts its description of itself as “nonpartisan.” However, it appears to exist exclusively to promote leftist policies and politicians.

The Fox report produced a cavalcade of fake news reporting on the subject, including this local New Jersey paper’s article falsely claiming the recently-created group “normally backs Trump.”

Leading member Cynthia Herriott, who resigned as Interim Acting Police Chief in Rochester, New York, in 2021 after one scandal-ridden year, said in June that gun control would be the group’s main focus, alongside issues such as “accessibility of elections”—generally code for Democratic priorities such as fewer identity checks on voters and greater use of insecure voting methods such as mail-in ballots.

Vice President Kamala Harris’s lack of support among genuine police groups is unsurprising, as she previously compared police to slavers and backed the violent Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests and associated initiatives to defund police forces in 2020.

Harris also solicited donations for groups paying the bail of those taking part in BLM riots, in which multiple serving and retired police officers were killed or seriously injured.

Illegal Charged with Killing Cop was on Probation for Assault, Had DWI Record.

An illegal alien charged with killing a Missouri police officer while driving drunk without a license was at large in the country despite having a criminal record. Ramon A. Chavez-Rodriguez, 24, was on probation for second-degree domestic assault when he killed St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department Officer David Lee. The Honduran also had a prior driving while intoxicated (DWI) conviction.

The Biden-Harris government is still declining to issue an immigration detainer against Chavez-Rodriguez, according to local officials. “Homeland Security was notified that he was arrested, that he was charged, and he was in this country illegally. Their answer is they’re not going to issue a detainer—and a detainer is something that would tell us to hold him until they could get him—but they weren’t going to do that, because he’d already been in the system back in 2020,” explained St. Charles County Prosecutor Joe McCulloch.

Biden-Harris Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas issued guidance to federal authorities in 2021 that being in the U.S. illegally “should not alone be the basis” for detaining and deporting migrants, meaning people like Chavez-Rodriguez are generally left undisturbed once they reach the country’s interior until they begin committing crimes.

Even if they are charged or convicted, Democrat sanctuary policies restricting cooperation with federal immigration officials allow many criminal migrants to evade deportation.

WATCH: Over 200 Vehicles Cause GTA-Style Chaos in Philly, Menacing Cops.

The Philadelphia Police Department (PPD) has initiated several measures to tackle a rise in illegal street racing and reckless driving following multiple incidents over the weekend. Between 9:30 PM Saturday and 4:33 AM Sunday, officers responded to gatherings involving as many as 200 vehicles that involved the detonation of fireworks, drifting, setting fires, and assaulting police.

NIGHT OF CHAOS. 

The timeline of these incidents began at 9:30 PM at 7400 Bustleton Ave, where around 50 cars were present. Officers issued 24 citations under the Nuisance Car Ordinance, including 15 to spectators. One driver, who attempted to evade police by driving at them, collided with another vehicle. There is now an active warrant for the driver’s arrest.

At 11:47 PM, over 100 vehicles were drifting at 20th and Pattison Ave. Two individuals from nearby communities were arrested after fleeing and crashing their car. By 3:30 AM, the incidents had moved to 3300 Fox St. A 39th District officer sustained minor injuries when his vehicle was hit by another car. The suspect subsequently sped off.

At 4:00 AM, approximately 200 cars gathered at Island and Bartram Ave for drag racing and drifting. Police were attacked, and the crowd dispersed upon the arrival of additional units. The last reported incident occurred at 4:33 AM at 15th and Market, where more than 100 cars were setting trash fires and vandalizing police vehicles.

DAMAGE TO POLICE VEHICLES.

Deputy Commissioner Mike Cram commented on the severity of the situation, noting the dangerous behavior of participants and the extent of damage to police vehicles. Cram emphasized that the individuals involved do not consider the safety of others or their own.

The Philadelphia Police Department has deployed additional officers to address these illegal gatherings. “Do not think for a moment that you got away with it,” the department declared. They added: “There are cameras everywhere, there is a considerable amount of evidence to go through, PPD will use that evidence to make arrests when warranted.”

Cops Demand Apology from Kamala for Comparing Them to Slavers.

Kamala Harris, a descendant of notorious 19th-century slave owner Hamilton Brown, is being asked to apologize to the National Association of Police Organizations (NAPO) for comparing police work to slavery.

“When we say that America has a history of systemic racism, we mean that from slavery, Jim Crow laws, lynchings, and policing, our institutions have done violence to black Americans,” said Harris, whose parents are Indian and Afro-Caribbean—although her Marxist father has European as well as African antecedents.

“Kamala Harris has shown once again that she simply has no actual knowledge of what modern American police officers do, and worse, doesn’t seem to even care for the men and women who put their life on the line to protect American communities,” said NAPO president Michael McHale.

“We call on her to retract and apologize for her comments equating policing to lynching and slavery. She has yet to explain her support for defunding the police and, even worse, her support for the so-called ‘Minnesota Freedom Fund’ that put persons arrested for violent crimes back on the streets as Minneapolis burned during the George Floyd riots,” he added.

Harris made the comments in 2020, around the time of her failed run for the Democratic nomination. She supported the defund the police movement during this period and a “day one” ban on fracking, among other far-left policies she is now downplaying.

The Vice President did not only attack the police during her earlier career. As an ultra-liberal California Senator, she once compared the work of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to the crimes of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK).

NEW: Bodycam Vid Shows Cop Carnage in Aftermath of Trump Shooting.

Newly released police body camera footage shows the frantic moments after a local Butler, Pennslyvania, law enforcement officer was boosted onto the roof of the American Glass Research building and confronted would-be assassin, Thomas Matthew Crooks.

The video sheds new light on the actions taken by local police and lack of communication from the United States Secret Service (USSS) just before Crooks opened fire on the nearby campaign rally, striking former President Donald J. Trump in the ear, wounding two others, and killing rallygoer Corey Comperatore.

After being boosted onto the roof, the police officer briefly makes contact with Crooks and then drops back to the ground after assessing that the 20-year-old would-be assassin is armed with a rifle. The officer then retreats to his patrol vehicle to retrieve a high-powered rifle while coordinating with other local law enforcement on the radio. He informs his fellow officers that he was able to assess that Crooks was armed, carrying a backpack, and was “kitted out.”

The footage reveals the officer aggressively directing other law enforcement to the American Glass Research building rooftop, demanding they get eyes on Crooks. He describes the 20-year-old as having long hair and wearing glasses. Throughout the six minutes of footage, local police can be heard frantically coordinating a search for Crooks and attempting to get units on the rooftop.

At no point can the USSS be heard speaking the local police with or acknowledging the situation as it unfolded—strongly suggesting a breakdown in communications left former President Trump’s security detail unaware. During a recent Congressional hearing, USSS acting director Ronald Rowe, Jr. admitted that agency protocols may have prevented timely communication with local police.

While law enforcement was eventually able to place officers on the roof, they were unable to prevent Crooks from opening fire.

UK Govt Tells Farage Deputy to Stop Sharing Footage of Muslim Mobs.

Jess Phillips, a Member of Parliament (MP) for the Labour Party and Parliamentary Under-Secretary at the Home Office–responsible for homeland security–is making excuses for Muslim mobs who harassed journalists in Birmingham on Monday and pressuring other politicians not to share footage of them.

Phillips, whose remit is “Safeguarding and Violence Against Women and Girls,” was responding to Richard Tice MP, deputy leader of Nigel Farage’s Reform Party, on X, formerly Twitter. He had shared footage of masked Muslims mobbing a Sky News crew making gun signs, forcing their female reporter off-air.

“[Prime Minister Sir Keir] Starmer and Labour no doubt think these pro-Gaza masked folk are far-right too,” commented Tice, in reference to Starmer’s efforts to blame all of the violence currently engulfing Britain on “far-right thugs.”

“Two-tier policing must stop,” Tice added.

Phillips defended the Muslim mob, claiming they “came to this location because it ha[d] been spread that racists were coming to attack them.”

“This misinformation was spread entirely to create this content. Don’t spread it MR Tice!” she demanded, apparently in an effort to suppress footage of Muslim mobs engaging in criminal actions.

Previously, the chief correspondent for state-owned Channel 4 News deleted footage of Muslim mobs attacking “lone white individuals” in the town of Middlesbrough without explanation.

GROWING DISORDER. 

In another incident in Birmingham, which Phillips represents in Parliament, Sky News filmed a Muslim man repeatedly stabbing the wheels of their van. An LBC journalist also described being driven from the area he was covering “for miles,” with Muslims pursuing him with weapons and circling him in cars.

The LBC reporter noted the apparent lack of any meaningful police presence. In contrast, police have aggressively confronted alleged “far-right” protestors wherever they have appeared, striking them with batons and setting dogs on them.

Prime Minister Starmer denies there is two-tier policing in relation to the protests and counter-protests sparked by the mass stabbing of multiple young girls by the son of two Rwandan migrants.

Armed Muslims Take Over England’s Second City, Chase Out Journalists.

Mobs of armed Muslims, many waving Palestinian flags, took over swathes of Birmingham, England’s second city, on Monday, and pursued journalists from the areas under their control “for miles.”

Fraser Knight, a reporter for LBC, described how he was “chased out of an area of east Birmingham by groups of Asian men who had come out to ‘protect their community’ against a planned far-right demonstration” in a post on X (formerly Twitter), referring to men of South Asian rather than Far Eastern heritage.

“The security guard with me decided immediately it wasn’t safe for us—it was clear we weren’t welcome—but there wasn’t a safe place for us to go for miles,” he continued, noting how cars followed them and that “at one point a group of around six men ran after us down a road with what looked like a weapon.”

“We were forced to run,” he added.

In a longer article on his experience, Knight questioned the “lack of a police presence.”

“In the 40 minutes we were there, we saw perhaps two or three police cars driving past,” he said. “There were no officers on the streets that we walked. There were no vans on standby nearby that I could see. It felt like it was them against us—and there were a lot more of them.”

TWO-TIER KEIR.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is accused of presiding over a two-tier policing regime amid the current riotous protests overtaking Britain, sparked by the deadly mass stabbing of multiple young girls by the teenage son of two African migrants in Southport.

Starmer denies the charge, as does the nation’s top police officer, Sir Mark Rowley, who went so far as to rip a microphone from a journalist’s hand and throw it on the ground—a criminal offense—when he was asked a question about two-tier policing.

The scenes in Birmingham only strengthen the accusations of a two-tier system for the “far right” and ethnic minorities, however. Almost everywhere they have gone, anti-mass migration protestors have been confronted aggressively by police in full riot gear. On the other hand, Muslim counter-demonstrators have been met by police liaison officers politely requesting that they deposit any weapons they are carrying unlawfully at nearby mosques.

In addition to Knight’s issues in Birmingham, a broadcast by Comcast’s Sky News in the city was terminated after a mob of masked Muslims shouting “Free Palestine!” and making gun signs descended on them.

In a later incident, a Sky News crew filmed a Muslim with a knife stabbing the wheels of their van.

Farage: Parliament Must Be Recalled to Debate Two-Tier Policing, Mass Migration Amid Riots.

Reform Party leader Nigel Farage is asking for Parliament to be recalled as disorder spreads across the United Kingdom in the wake of a mass stabbing, allegedly by Rwandan migrants’ son Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, in Southport. The Member of Parliament (MP) for Clacton-on-Sea says he is “appalled” by the violence, but the “fracturing of our communities as a result of mass, uncontrolled immigration, whether illegal or illegal,” must be addressed.

“Ever since the soft policing of the Black Lives Matter protests, the impression of two-tier policing has become widespread,” Farage noted. Police forces do appear to be taking a much more combative approach towards what Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is labeling “far-right thugs” than they did towards BLM or more recent ethnic minority rioters in Harehills, Leeds. There is also little evidence of officers moving against roving mobs of armed Muslims currently roaming the streets in response to the protests.

“The majority of our population can see the fracturing of our communities as a result of mass, uncontrolled immigration, whether legal or illegal. Yet to attempt to debate this in the public arena leads to immediate howls of condemnation,” Farage lamented.

“A population explosion without integration was always going to end badly. I have said this for many years,” he added.
