Jew Hater Macklemore Booted From Ed Sheeran Tour

I’m not sure how Sheeran, who usually avoids controversy, thought having Macklemore was a good idea

Robert Kraft, Gillette Stadium boot Macklemore from Ed Sheeran tour over ‘Free Palestine’ rant

Macklemore is learning the hard way that concertgoers paying top dollar for stadium shows do not want a lecture on Middle Eastern geopolitics from the guy who wrote “Thrift Shop.”

Macklemore was kicked off Ed Sheeran’s U.S. stadium tour after multiple venues refused to host him following his pro-Palestinian speeches and performances at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The fallout escalated when New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft barred him from performing at Gillette Stadium, where Sheeran is scheduled to play Sept. 25 and 26.

The rapper opened Sheeran’s shows at MetLife on Sept. 4 and 5. Macklemore wore a keffiyeh, showed footage of destruction in Gaza, performed “Hind’s Hall” and led the crowd in “Free Palestine” chants. The song includes lyrics accusing Israel of genocide.

Macklemore said the tour gave him a massive platform to promote his political message. He also claimed Sheeran told him Robert Kraft had rallied other stadium owners against keeping him on the tour.

Do people really want political lectures in support of Islamic terrorist groups and which show hate for Jews during concerts, or just entertainment?

Kraft, whose Kraft Group owns Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, cited the rapper’s stage behavior and what he called a “broader history of anti-Semitic rhetoric and imagery.”

“Gillette Stadium has a longstanding commitment to providing a welcoming environment for all guests and ensuring that events held at our venue do not provide a platform for hate speech,” Kraft shared in a statement made to ESPN.

“Based on Macklemore’s recent actions, material shared from the stage during Ed Sheeran’s shows in New Jersey, and a broader history of anti-Semitic rhetoric and imagery that we believe has been deeply offensive and hurtful to the Jewish community, we determined that his participation in the September 25th and 26th shows would not be permitted.”

Kraft has said that advocating for innocent Palestinians (are there any?) while also noting what Hamas did on October 7th and not being a Jew hater are not mutually exclusive, and he’s willing to sit down with Macklemore to discuss it, but, of course, Macklemore wants nothing to do with that, he’s cool with being a Jew hater and taking the side of Muslim terrorists, like so many Leftists.

Bummer: As Nations Blow Off Paris Climate (scam) Accords People Are “Fighting For Survival”

I guess they’re upset that a lot of the scam money is drying up and they are losing influence

As the Fight for a Key Climate Goal Falters, Some Begin a Fight for Survival

The most ambitious part of the 2015 Paris climate agreement, to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, only came about because of a campaign by some of the world’s poorest and most defenseless countries.

Caribbean participants tacked up posters saying “1.5 to stay alive,” and the prime minister of Tuvalu said any temperature rise beyond that mark would “spell the total demise” of his and other low-lying island nations. In the final stage of negotiations, some were chanting, “1.5.”

The acknowledgment last week from the United Nations that the planet is going to breach that limit was not a surprise to anyone tracking global temperatures, which keep rising.

But it nonetheless formalized a dire outcome: Amid scant progress from global powers to cut pollution from fossil fuels, vulnerable countries will now spend decades, or perhaps centuries, confronting the very climate scenario they’d once said would be untenable.

But, weirdly, all those Caribbean and other small nations refuse to give up their airports, heliports, cruise ship ports, shipping ports, cars, trucks, and everything fossil fuels. So, if it spells the total demise then it’s self caused, per their cult talking points.

And though that puts them face-to-face with the concerns they’d held in Paris, about rising sea levels and intensifying disasters, they also face new risks few could have imagined a decade ago. Cutbacks in aid from wealthy nations, including the United States, have reduced the humanitarian safety net. The United States, the world’s largest historical emitter, has also withdrawn from the Paris Agreement, as well as from funds meant to help developing countries deal with climate change.

Poorer nations say these changes threaten to make the 1.5 Celsius breach even rockier, leaving them fewer resources to deal with disasters while widening global inequities.

In other words, it’s about the money. Surprise!

Mamdani Sues Over “Public Charge” Rule

If Islamist Mamdani is so upset why doesn’t he spend the tax money of the city of NY?

NYC sues Trump administration over expanded ‘public charge’ immigration rule

New York City is suing the Trump administration over changes to a federal immigration test that city officials say could discourage legal immigrants from accessing basic public benefits.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced Monday that the city filed a lawsuit challenging revisions to the “public charge” rule, which immigration officials use when deciding whether to grant green cards or visas.

The public charge provision, part of federal immigration law since 1882, allows officials to consider whether an immigrant is likely to become primarily dependent on the government for subsistence. Under previous guidance, immigration officers weighed limited public benefits, including Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as SNAP.

The US didn’t have SNAP or Medicaid or most federal government assistance programs in 1882. Anything close, what were called “poor laws”, were handled by states and localities. Anyone applying for citizenship has to prove they can pay for their own lives. Why would the federal government pay for people on visas to be on public assistance.

The administration’s new policy expands that review by applying a broader, case-by-case basis that Mamdani called “simply a vehicle for confusion and a vehicle for cruelty.”

Immigration officials can now consider a wider range of public benefits, along with factors including income, assets, education, job skills, employability, health, health insurance coverage and age.

Same as with citizenship applications.

City officials and immigration advocates argue the changes could make it easier to deny legal residency to immigrants who rely on government assistance programs or fear that using those programs could jeopardize their immigration status.

Well, yeah. Of course. That’s the point. We need to stop bringing in people who cannot bring value.

The World Can’t Afford To Wait On Fixing Climate Doom Or Something

It can’t wait for Government to run your life. Not the Warmist Elite’s life

Deadly silence: The world can’t afford to ignore climate change much longer

Our government could do something about climate change, but it refuses. In fact, most elected leaders and political candidates don’t even talk about it.

As the fossil-fuel industry increasingly allied itself with Republicans to block climate action over the decades, Democrats became the party more willing to address it. But now, even many Democrats have gone quiet. As the November midterms approach, think tanks and consultants are advising them to avoid the topic global warming because “it is not a priority for voters.”

The silence is called “climate hushing,” the strategic choice to avoid talking about global warming to avoid political backlash, polarization or economic anxiety. In other words, our elected leaders should avoid mentioning the huge elephant in the room, even as it gets more dangerous.

Hardly an evening newscast goes by today without reports of major weather disasters and millions of Americans under threat of fire, flood, killer heat or other calamity. Community after community is turned to ash by wildfires, blown into rubble by tornadoes or washed away in flash floods.

That’s called “weather.” Also, why is it that the government has to Do Something? I’ve been saying for 22 years, Warmists could stop using fossil fuels in their own lives, but, most refuse to do that.

A study late last year by the Center for American Progress reported that “climate-accelerated shocks are contributing to some of the largest food price increases American families have faced in recent years.” Beef is an example — as prolonged drought reduced cattle herds, the Department of Agriculture projected a 12 percent increase in beef and veal prices.

Yeah, once you mention CAP, you’ve gone off the deep end in partisanship.

Politico: GOP Midterm Policy Is “Skimpy”

Remember, the Credentialed Media doesn’t take sides

Convention puts GOP’s reality on display: Midterm policy agenda is skimpy

Republicans used their midterm convention this week to ask voters to preserve their congressional majorities and let them “finish the job.”

But with few consensus legislative goals, it’s far from clear what job they want to finish.

The two-day convention here centered on painting Democrats as an increasingly socialist party that American voters cannot trust with power while highlighting the GOP’s one major victory on Capitol Hill under President Donald Trump’s second term: the year-old tax-cut package known as the “big, beautiful bill.”

In contrast, there was little talk from the podium of what Republicans might seek to pass with a continued trifecta, and members interviewed on the sidelines shared differing visions of what specific legislation the GOP should pursue in the last two years of Trump’s presidency.

Well, true, the GOP doesn’t have the detailed agenda the Democrats do, which includes

  • Impeach Trump, Vance, everyone around him, and investigate them ad nauseum
  • Raise taxes
  • Restrict legal ownership of guns
  • Force Everyone Else into an EV
  • Defund the cops
  • Defund the military
  • Legislation establishing a 32 hour workweek where people get paid for 40
  • Government run and controlled healthcare
  • Cancel all student debt
  • End all cooperation with those horrible Jews in Israel
  • Defund ICE, end the border
  • End sanctions on Cuba and Iran
  • Abolish the Senate and presidency
  • End the ability of the Supreme Court to do judicial review
  • Let in tons of Muslim extremists and people from 3rd world shitholes.
  • Control every citizen

It’s nuts, but, hey, the Dem agenda isn’t skimpy, right?

Oh, and let’s not forget the coming AI apocalypse

Obama and the Dems are suspiciously sounding the ‘AI apocalypse’ alarm — just in time for the midterms

The “AI Apocalypse” scare campaign looks suspiciously like the climate hoax. How convenient that it’s come to a head right as the midterm election season kicks off this week.

The campaign launch was when Jacob Coxon, a low-level 27-year-old AI researcher, trumpeted his resignation from AI company Anthropic in a Wall Street Journal exclusive last week followed by a viral X thread warning AI will “kill us all.”

“The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade .?.?. They are gambling with our lives,” he claimed.

His boss, the Democrat-aligned Anthropic founder and CEO Dario Amodei, amplified Coxon’s apocalyptic message with a 3,800-word essay on Saturday, followed by a giddy interview CBS aired Sunday in which he essentially called for a one-world government to regulate AI.

He wants “the right combination of governments” to provide “some kind of joint governance [to] control the technology.

Why don’t all those AI companies come up with rules? Oh, right, because the Elites want to codify their positions and make it harder for small companies and startups. Anyhow, Dems are beating the AI apocalypse bandwagon hard, because their voters are complete sheep and do not know any better.

Prince William Says We Have Till 2030 To Avoid Climate Doom

Funny how the doom dates keep moving

Prince William warns ‘inch-by-inch’ action is not enough to stop climate change

Prince William has issued a dramatic plea for action to tackle climate change to be sped up before it is too late.

Current measures are proceeding at a snail’s pace “inch by inch” and are nowhere near enough to address the problem, he said.

The future king argues that the “devastation” caused by summer wildfires in Britain and worldwide underlines the need for greater urgency in combatting global warming.

Writing exclusively for The Independent, the Prince of Wales said his Earthshot Prize competition to find new ways to repair the planet shows that technological solutions can be found.

He denies he is displaying “blind hope” that it is not too late to deal with environmental crises like climate change.

Answers have been found, he said, but they are either not being used, or not being used fast enough to meet the emergency.

He said action must be stepped up in what is left of this decade, effectively setting a deadline of 2030, less than four years from now.

Huh. Also Prince William

(UK Daily Mail) The Prince of Wales has given an impassioned speech talking of the ‘privilege’ he feels at representing his father on the global stage for the first time, but warning the world is ‘edging dangerously close’ to disaster.

William, 43, is representing King Charles at the COP30 United Nations Climate Summit in Belém, the gateway to Brazil’s Amazon rainforest.

Speaking at the World Leaders Summit in a landmark address, the heir to the throne – who flew to the event with British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer following his Earthshot Prize awards in Rio de Janeiro last night – spoke from the heart about his determination to continue his father’s work on green issues and take them forwards.

Huh

That’s a nice government jet they took, eh?

What’s the carbon footprint, Will?

Surprise: Man Who Murdered Woman At Panera Bread Was Illegally In US

Guess who let him in?

Immigration officials say man who stalked, executed woman at Panera Bread was in the country illegally

The Department of Homeland Security confirmed Friday the man who investigators say stalked a woman for months before executing her in a Panera Bread parking lot in Sacramento this week was in the country illegally.

The victim was 38-year-old Shalini Thakur and her mother has said authorities failed to protect her.

A spokesperson for DHS said Thakur’s killer, 22-year-old Rohit Rohit, was from India and entered the United States through Arizona in 2023. He was arrested by the U.S. Border Patrol and released by the Biden administration, according to the spokesperson. The exact details around his immigration status were not immediately clear as of Friday.

Federal court records online showed his case was pending. The records showed no appeal had been received for his case and there were no hearings scheduled.

Another winner let in by the Biden regime

Rohit killed himself amid a standoff with police on Highway 50 after the shooting. The scene left traffic at a standstill for hours.

“This illegal alien from India harassed, stalked, and then killed a 38-year-old woman in California, and then took his own life when police caught up to him,” said a DHS spokesperson. “This tragedy would have been completely avoided if it weren’t for the Biden Administration RELEASING this killer into our country. Sanctuary politicians must put an end to reckless policies that play Russian roulette with American lives. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victim and her family.”

Obviously, Democrats are upset

“Trying to turn a horrific act of stalking and domestic violence into an indictment of California’s sanctuary policies is not supported by the evidence and distracts from the real issues this case raises — law enforcement preventing stalking and domestic violence, enforcing restraining orders, and keeping victims safe,” said Diana Crofts-Pelayo, a spokesperson for Gov. Newsom’s office.

Once you trot out “distraction from” you know that the person has lost. Also, California law enforcement failed to prevent the stalking, enforcing restraining orders, and keeping Thakur alive.
