Woke Target Ruins Black History Month w/ Insulting Merchandise

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Target, the infamous retailer that saw billions of dollars in losses after a pro-LGBT and satanic controversy, is once again in the spotlight for releasing an offensive book during Black History Month.

A viral TikTok video highlighted Target’s misidentification of three civil rights leaders —W.E.B. Du Bois, Booker T. Washington and Carter G. Woodson. This misstep led to the prompt withdrawal of the incorrectly manufactured merchandise, the New York Post reported on Friday.

@issatete Idk who needs to correct it but it needs to be pulled off the shelves nontheless. Any person could have missed the mistake but it just takes one person to point it out and ask for corrections #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth #blacktiktok ♬ original sound – Issa tete

TikTok influencer and history teacher Issa Tete first discovered Target selling a book that wrongly labeled Du Bois (the first black man to earn a Harvard Ph.D.) as Woodson (hailed as the “father of black history”).

“This is not Carter G. Woodson—this is W.E.B. Du Bois,” Tete asserted, substantiating her assumptions by comparing the images with Wikipedia photos of Du Bois.

“Peep the ‘stache, they got the name wrong,” she pointed out, drawing attention to Du Bois’s distinctive mustache.

In the book titled “Civil Rights Magnetic Learning Kit” and published by Bendon, Target erroneously placed Du Bois’ name next to Washington, a black scholar, but also placed Washington’s name next to Woodson.

“I went to get my kids this little magnet learning activity book since Black History Month is coming up from Target,” Tete said earlier in the video.

“I don’t know who’s in charge of Target but these need to be pulled off the shelves like immediately. I noticed some discrepancies as soon as I opened this,” she continued. 

In the video caption, she emphasized, “Any person could have missed the mistake but it just takes one person to point it out and ask for corrections.”

In remarks to the NY Post, Target acknowledged the errors and swiftly removed the book from shelves. “We’ve also ensured the product’s publisher is aware of the errors,” the retailer added.

This incident follows Target’s controversy last year when it released LGBTQ merchandise for children in support of Gay Pride Month. One of the designers hired by Target for the merchandise was exposed for having previously drawn satanic drawings. 

By June 2023, Target had faced a $13 billion loss in value following the backlash, as reported by Bloomberg.

Illegals Explain Difference Between N.Y. and Fla. to Stunned CNN Reporter

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) A CNN segment has gone viral on Twitter as a legal analyst unveiled the trend of undocumented individuals committing crimes in Florida and then retreating to New York, seizing on the lenient policies of the Democratic-governed state.

As reported by the Daily Caller, the Friday conversation between CNN anchor Erica Hill and CNN Chief Law Enforcement and Intelligence analyst John Miller revolved around a shocking video capturing five illegal individuals brutally assaulting two NYPD cops. 

Despite the apprehension of the alleged perpetrators, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg released them without bail. Reacting to the release, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul emphatically declared: “Get them all and send them back.”

During the CNN This Morning segment, Hill reacted to Hochul’s remarks, saying, “To hear her talk about that—it is also directly related to the fact that these were police officers. Does that have any impact? Does that change anything?”

In response, Miller asserted, “These are people who came in waves, you know, 170,000 probably to New York City. But within that group, this hard-working, throngs of people in search of hope and a better life, there is this one percent, criminal element that looks at a different opportunity here.”

Miller told Hill that he reviewed the past criminal records of the individuals who attacked the cops. 

“These individuals, I went over their rap sheets yesterday: multiple charges; grand larceny, robbery, attempted robbery, grand larceny, grand larceny,” he said. “This particular crew operated on mopeds and scooters. They were doing organized retail theft. They were doing snatches on the street, iPhones, iPads, clothing, so on and so forth.”

Miller highlighted that one individual faced 10 charges in a single day. The other individuals likely began having run-ins with law enforcement almost immediately upon arriving in the U.S. 

“So what the detectives are telling me is, they have crews here that operate in New York, do all their stealing, then go to Florida to spend the money and then come back. I’m like, ‘Why don’t they just stay and steal in Florida?’ They said, ‘Because there you go to jail,’” Miller added. 

A visibly stunned Hill responded with a simple, “Oh.”

Four Illegals Who Beat NYC Cops Near Times Square Fled to Commiefornia

Four Illegals Who Beat NYC Cops Near Times Square Fled to Commiefornia

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Four of the illegals who were cut loose without monetary bail after attacking two NYPD policemen near Times Square may be on the run and fleeing to another leftist state, California.

New York City policemen think that the group could have hopped on a bus that was heading for California on Jan. 31, 2024, after giving fake names to a church-affiliated nonprofit group that helps illegals get out of the city, according to the New York Post.

The four cop-attackers were charged with assault on a police officer and obstruction immediately after the attack that happened on Jan. 27, 2024, in Midtown and was captured on video.

In addition to that, before the arrest, one of the attackers was showing off the video of him beating NYPD officers to other illegals.

Darwin Andres Gomez, 19, Kelvin Servita Arocha, 19, Wilson Juarez, 21, and Yorman Reveron, 24, and Jhoan Boada, 22, were released without monetary bail by a leftist Manhattan judge.

Two more illegals, Jandry Barros, 21, and Yohenry Brito, 24, were arrested by cops later that night, according to the NYPD.

Dozens of the NYPD officers and representatives for the Police Benevolent Association (PBA) packed the courtroom for Brito’s arraignment that happened on Feb. 1, 2024 — as he became the first of those charged in the attack to be ordered held on bail — according to the news source.

“We packed the courtroom today to support our brother police officer, and our Lieutenant who was repeatedly attacked by a gang on the street, punched repeatedly, kicked our police officer and fled the scene,” PBA President Patrick Hendry said.

He also talked about the corrupt criminal system that frees the people who, in addition to breaking the law upon entering the country illegally, commits crimes inside the United States.

“Our criminal system is upside down. What message does it send to every New York City police officer, who is on the streets of the city of New York every single day risking their lives to protect New Yorkers? If we’re not protected, how are we going to protect the people in the neighborhoods?” he added.

According to the DA’s office, Barros wasn’t charged by prosecutors, pending further investigation.

Influencer Dom Lucre Mocks Dems w/ Hilarious ‘Black History’ Posts

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Black conservative influencer Dom Lucre took to Twitter to share a series of mocking posts targeting prominent black Democratic figures just as Black History Month kicked off.

Known for his viral and controversial tweets, Lucre ridiculed President Joe Biden, former President Barack Obama, Vice President Kamala Harris, Rep. Jamaal Bowman and civil rights activist Al Sharpton. The tweets have gained millions of views and drew hilarious reactions from Twitter users. 

One tweet by Lucre sarcastically celebrated Bowman, D-N.Y.,’s guilty plea to a misdemeanor charge after attempting to block a bipartisan stop-gap bill by triggering a fire alarm during a congressional vote.

“On this day in Black History Month we celebrate Rep. Jamaal Bowman, the first Black man to stop a Congressional vote by pulling a fire alarm,” Lucre said.

Lucre’s criticism extended to Harris. “On this day in Black History Month we celebrate Kamala Harris, the first Indian woman to become Vice President by claiming she was Black.” 

Lucre’s post highlighted Harris’s biracial identity and criticized her for allegedly changing her ethnicity for political gain.

Lucre targeted Biden with a tweet that said. “On this day in Black History Month we celebrate Joe Biden, the first White man to lock up Black people and tell them that they aren’t Black,” Lucre said.

The tweet referred to Biden’s controversial remark in 2020, where he faced backlash for suggesting that Black voters who considered voting for Trump “ain’t Black.”

Lucre’s criticism extended to Obama with a tweet that read: “On this day in Black History Month we celebrate Barrack Obama, the first Black elected official to do more for Gay people than Black people.”

Sharpton was not spared from the mocking trend: “On this day in Black History Month we celebrate Reverend Al Sharpton, the first Black man to get away with not paying taxes.”

Another post targeted Smollett, who falsely claimed Trump supporters assaulted him. “On this day in Black History Month we celebrate Jussie Smollett, the first Black man to be a victim of his own hate crime,” Lucre said.

Adult Diaper ‘Therapy’ Spa Receives Backlash from N.H. Residents

Adult Diaper ‘Therapy’ Spa Receives Backlash from N.H. Residents

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) A bed and breakfast catering to self-described Adult Baby/Diaper Lovers (ABDL) in a small New Hampshire town has drawn criticism and backlash from the local community.

The Diaper Spa which is located at 23 Pope Road in Atkinson, N.H., is advertised on its website as being a “physician-run diaper salon” that serves “all diaper-wearing individuals who seek acceptance, respite, and care.”

A business filing with the state’s Secretary of State’s office was rejected because the filing indicated that owner Colleen Ann Murphy created the business, which was categorized by the state as a health care and social assistance business in December 2023, according to the Post Millennial.

Among the “services” of the business are a free 30-minute “discovery call” with “resident Diaper Doctor” Murphy, a one-hour “virtual play date/zoom visit with doc” for $200, a “ABDL Nursery Spa Care” for $300 minimum, a $1,500 “Diaper B&B,” among other things.

A gallery on the website also shows a room with an adult-sized crib, a chest full of adult-sized diapers in childish prints and stuffed animals placed around the house.

Murphy herself is described on the website as an “exceptionally trained and licensed [“neurodivergent”] medical doctor with over two decades of knowledge and experience in nurturing others.”

Among other “activities” that are included in the visit are “playtime, story time, nap time, cuddle time, changing time, coloring, nursery rhymes and sing-a-longs,” with seasonal offerings like picnics, pool time and tea time in the summer and building snowmen, drinking hot chocolate and decorating cookies in the winter.

“We have a trail practically from the backyard leading along a pond and a private walk to a fun park all year. Other secluded walking trails are easily accessible to our facility on foot,” a since now-deleted Jan. 26, 2024, version of the website stated.

The reason why this portion about the park was removed was because of the backlash from the residents that resulted in the successful petition regarding the adults who would be walking around children in the park while wearing diapers.

Before creating the petition, Kayla Gallagher, an Atkinson resident and mother of three, expressed her concerns about “field trips” to the local playground.

“That is something that I will never be willing to expose my kids to, so now we will no longer be able to use that park,” Gallagher said.

Mike Vigliotta, another resident, also criticized the organization for their desire to allow their clients to expose themselves this way in front of minors.

“I’m sure there’s a lot of kids that live around here, and what type of people are going to do that? People who are looking at children or being children by wearing diapers and being treated like a baby. That kind of concerns me. Who knows what that leads to,” he said.

Is Fetterman’s Rightward Shift Linked to Breakup w/ Wife?

Is Fetterman’s Rightward Shift Linked to Breakup w/ Wife?

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) The dramatic rightward shift of once far-left Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., has led some to speculate that he may have split with his wife, Gisele, according to Revolver News.

“It simply cannot be a coincidence that John Fetterman started making sense at almost the exact moment he and his wife Giselle Fetterman apparently broke up,” tweeted conservative pundit Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA.

“The question is… which came first?” he added.

Kirk’s theory was a reaction to a post from online journalist Misha Schizarella, who previously posted about the Fettermans breaking up.

She tweeted that Giselle had deleted all pictures with her husband on her social media and had claimed to work as a fellow for the New York Times.

Twitter’s Community Notes function swiftly corrected her, and the Daily Mail confirmed her to be a fake.

Schizarella pushed back on the Community Notes, claiming that Giselle removed photos of her and her husband from Instagram.

As the reports of their imminent breakup spread, Giselle returned to Twitter after a two-month break.

“I posted several months ago that i would be talking a break from social media,” she wrote. “I was bored with it… i am a Pisces… it wasn’t adding anything to my life .. but leaving social media is somehow more exhausting than having it?! You guys really are terrible, respectfully.”

The couple also posted a photo together at a recent congressional dinner with the caption “Date Night.”

 

Fetterman directly responded to the rumors, saying that his wife’s social media break was a response to backlash from pro-Palestine protesters in an interview with the Daily Mail.

“I don’t even understand why there’s rumors because my wife clearly got tired of the online abuse from the same kind of crazies that show up at my home on Friday nights,” the senator said, referencing the pro-Palestine protestors that regularly appear outside of his private home.

Fetterman responded to the protestors by waving a large Israeli flag from the roof of his building.

The Babylon Bee poised a different theory for Fetterman’s latest cognitive shift.

Tax Relief Bill Heads to the Senate: Relief for Some, Welfare for Many?

Tax Relief Bill Heads to the Senate: Relief for Some, Welfare for Many?

(Gwendolyn Sims, Headline USA)  On Wednesday, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024. The bipartisan bill passed the House 357 to 70 to expand eligibility for the child tax credit for lower-income families.

It adjusts payments for inflation for the 2024 and 2025 filing years. In addition, it provides new income-tax rules for “residents of Taiwan” who have U.S. income sources, increases tax deductions due to “losses from natural disasters and wildfires,” and increases the “low-income housing tax credit.”

The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Jason Smith, R-Mo., called it, “pro-growth, pro-jobs, and pro-American.”

But its critics, such as Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., warned the bill was nothing more than an expansion of welfare that would disincentivize working.

“It’s welfare by a different name. We are going to give cash payments, checks to people who don’t even pay taxes,” said Massie.

“The hard-working constituents that I represent in Kentucky are tired of getting up at 6 a.m., driving an hour or two to work, working their hind ends off to watch their neighbors collect these checks, of which there will be more of after this bill,” Massie said. “It’s just wrong.”

Seen as an extension of the Trump-era Child Tax Credit legislation, many Republicans were quick to back it.

“Because of this bill, working parents crushed by high prices will have an easier time putting food on the table,” said Smith. “More things will be made here in America, and the nation will be more competitive with China.”

Yet, not every lawmaker agreed with Smith’s assessment of the bill’s merits. Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., the newly selected chair of the Freedom Caucus, refused to vote for the bill stating.

It “further incentives the invasion at our Southern Border by offering [illegal aliens] expanded welfare payments,” Good said.

Still, other Republicans cautioned that appearing to give a win to the current Democratic president during such a hotly contested election year.

“I think passing a tax bill that makes the president look good—may allow checks before the election—means that he can be reelected, and then we won’t extend the 2017 tax cuts,” Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, told the Washington Post just before the House vote.

Grassley promised he’d keep the Biden re-election in mind when the bill comes up for a vote in the Senate.

Pleased with its passage, Smith said, “I am eager to get this bill passed by the Senate and signed into law. Millions of working families and Main Street businesses are counting on Congress to get this done. Let’s deliver.”

Mayorkas Impeachment at Risk After House Republican Comes Out Against It

Mayorkas Impeachment at Risk After House Republican Comes Out Against It

(Headline USA) Rep. Ken Buck, R-Colo., announced on Thursday that he will not support his party’s efforts to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas over the Biden administration official’s failure to enforce immigration laws.

House Republicans introduced articles of impeachment against Mayorkas this week, citing his willful disregard for the law and dereliction of duty in regard to the border crisis. But Buck’s opposition to it could put the process in jeopardy, since the GOP is already working with a thin majority in the House.

“Let me from the outset say there is a crisis on the border, the law needs to be enforced. But if we start going down this path of impeachment with a cabinet official, we are opening a door, as Republicans, that we don’t want to open,” Buck said in a statement.

“The next president who is a Republican will face the same scrutiny from Democrats,” he added. “It’s wrong, and we should not set this precedent.”

Buck, who will retire at the end of the current session, may have failed to take into account the precedent already set by Democrats, who twice impeached former President Donald Trump based on flimsy allegations that effectively lowered the bar.

Buck also argued that Mayorkas’s offense did not meet the “high crimes and misdemeanor standard” of impeachment.

“The people that I’m talking to on the outside, the constitutional experts, former members agree that this just isn’t an impeachable offense,” he claimed.

This is a significant about-face from Buck, who earlier in President Joe Biden’s term accused Mayorkas of betraying his country, comparing him to Benedict Arnold.

At least four other Republicans are still undecided on whether to vote against Mayorkas: Reps. Patrick McHenry, R-N.C.; Dan Newhouse, R-Wash.; Tom McClintock, R-Calif.; and David Joyce, R-Ohio.

However, several Republican moderates who were at first skeptical of the effort have been reportedly working to convince their colleagues to support it.

“I intend to [support Mayorkas’ impeachment],” said. Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., this week. “Because we have a disaster at the border. And I would say there’s so many laws on the books that he could enact or enforce, and he does not.”

Fani Willis Says Sex Affair w/ Anti-Trump Prosecutor Began after RICO Probe

Fani Willis Says Sex Affair w/ Anti-Trump Prosecutor Began after RICO Probe

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Embattled Fulton County Fani Willis admitted on Monday to having an affair with Special Prosecutor Nathan Wade, a man she selected to lead RICO charges against former President Donald Trump and 18 other co-defendants. 

In a 176-page motion first reported by the Washington Post, Willis clarified that her “personal relationship” with Wade, who is currently entangled in divorce proceedings, did not begin until after the investigation into Trump commenced. 

“Although District Attorney Willis and Special Prosecutor Wade have been professional associates and friends since 2019, there was no personal relationship between them in November 2021 at the time of Special Prosecutor Wade’s appointment,” Willis claimed. 

Willis’ claims emerged in response to allegations brought forward by Trump co-defendant Michael Roman, who urged the judge to remove the prosecutors and dismiss the case on grounds of impropriety and conflicts of interest. 

Roman revealed that Willis accompanied Wade on several lavish vacations funded by Wade’s taxpayer-paid earnings. Notably, Willis hired Wade and paid him nearly $700,000 in salary despite his limited criminal prosecution experience. 

However, in the new filings, Willis attempted to dispel the allegations, labeling them “meritless” and “salacious.” Moreover, she asked the judge to dismiss Roman’s complaint and forgo an evidentiary hearing. 

She claimed she had no “financial conflict of interest” and “no personal conflict of interest.” She added, “[T]he attacks on Special Prosecutor Wade’s qualifications are factually inaccurate, unsupported, and malicious.” 

Willis included an affidavit from Wade, asserting that the relationship did not commence until after she hired him to prosecute Trump. “In 2022, District Attorney Willis and I developed a personal relationship in addition to our professional association and friendship,” he said. 

Willis’s relationship with Wade is also at the center of the divorce proceedings between the special prosecutor and his wife, Joycelyn Wade. The wife accused her husband of allegedly concealing his Fulton County income from her and is now demanding financial support from him. Willis is resisting a subpoena seeking her testimony in that case. 

In addition to Roman’s complaint, Willis faces an investigation from a Fulton County commissioner, a bipartisan Senate committee investigation, and growing calls for the State Bar of Georgia to probe potential ethics violations.

Willis gained national notoriety after launching a criminal investigation into Trump’s alleged illegal efforts to challenge the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.

150 Dems Vote Against Bill to Deport Illegals Convicted of DUIs

150 Dems Vote Against Bill to Deport Illegals Convicted of DUIs

(Headline USA) The GOP-led House of Representatives voted this week to pass a bill that would make driving while intoxicated or impaired a deportable offense—despite opposition from 150 Democrats.

The bill, titled the Protect Communities from DUIs Act, cleared the chamber in a 274-150 vote. The only votes against it were from Democrats.

The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Barry Moore, R-Ala., shared the story of a couple he knew personally, Angel and Jeremy Seay, who were killed in a drunken driving accident in his hometown of Enterprise, Ala., after they were struck by an illegal immigrant.

“Angel and Jeremy were riding their motorcycle together when an illegal immigrant under the influence of alcohol collided into them with his pickup,” Moore recounted.

“Their lives were cut dramatically short,” he continued. “Sadly, tragedies like this are not uncommon across our country.”

The bill sought to clarify any discrepancies between state and federal law over whether an illegal immigrant convicted of DUI charges could be deported.

“The bar to admission shall apply to an individual who has been convicted of the offense or has admitted to having committed the acts which constitute the elements of the offense,” it said. “As a ground for deportability, the individual must have been convicted of the offense.”

Fifty-nine Democrats voted with Republicans in support of the bill, but as former President Donald Trump’s campaign pointed out, they were the minority. Even President Joe Biden said during the 2020 campaign that he did not think drunken driving should be a deportable offense.

“You only arrest for the purpose of dealing with a felony that’s committed, and I don’t consider drunk driving as a felony,” Biden said at the time.

Highlighting a tweet about the Democrats who refused to vote for the measure, billionaire Elon Musk wrote, “What the heck is going on!?”

The vote comes just days after two Democrats—“Squad” Reps. Cori Bush, D-Mo., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.—voted against a bill to ban Hamas terrorists from the U.S.
