DHS police handcuffed one of Rep. Jerry Nadler aides in the congressmember's Manhattan office, which is in the same federal office building as an immigration courthouse. DHS officers entered Nadler's district office and accused staff members of "harboring rioters." A Nadler staffer is seen crying and being handcuffed. Another officer is at a door trying to enter a private area of the office while a staffer asks for a warrant. DHS later said in a statement that "one individual" " the woman seen being handcuffed " had blocked police from performing a security check they intended to do based on information there were protesters in the lawmaker's office. Later that day, protesters gathered outside of the federal building, demonstrating against ICE. "If this can happen in a Member of Congress's office, it can happen to anyone " and it is happening," said the veteran congressman. Video: YouTube Link read more
Key points include:
Eleven people were stabbed in a church-run homeless shelter in Salem, Oregon, directly across from the local police HQ. At least one member of staff at the Union Gospel Mission in Salem is among the wounded following the shocking scenes at around 1900 HRS Sunday. The 11 wounded were rushed to a Salem hospital with "varying types of injuries. The suspect, who is in custody and pictured below, had arrived at the mission the previous night and was about to check into the 150-person ministry again for a second night when he started brawling just as he was supposed to hand his belongings over to staff. Good thing the suspect wasn't armed with a firearm or there would have been fatalities and more injuries, like other typical mass casualty attacks in the US that we are all accustomed to. read more
IDF Supremo Israel Katz said at a Jewish settlement in the West Bank: "They will recognize a Palestinian state on paper, and we will build the Jewish Israeli state on the ground here. The paper will disappear into the trash of history and Israel will flourish and flourish." With those statements, Katz had a clear message for French President Emmanuel Macron "and his friends" who had called the recognition of the Palestinian state "not only a moral duty, but a political necessity." Macron also urged a tougher line from European countries against Israel if it does not respond to the disastrous humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip. Emmanuel Macron continues 'talking the talk, but not walking the walk' by simply recognizing Palestine. This past March, the American taxpayer expedited $4bn of military aid to Israel. read more
From the FDA: "Bedner Growers, Inc. of Boynton Beach, FL is voluntarily recalling cucumbers sold at Bedner's Farm Fresh Market between 29 Apr and 14 May 2025 because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis."
"Nearly 47,000 people died of gun-related injuries in the US in 2023, according to the latest available statistics from the CDC. While the number of gun deaths in the US fell for the second consecutive year, it remained among the highest annual totals on record."
The GOP and Trumpf must have noticed the slight decline, so they want to make up for it with this type of judicial action. Let's get to 50,000 KIA per annum in the US, since that's a nice even number. Machine guns, bump stocks, silencers, and ammunition vending machines can get us there. Woe betide the wounded and paralyzed with inadequate medical insurance under the Trumpf Reign of Terror.

JAMA reports that childhood vaccination rates against measles, mumps, and rubella have been declining in much of the US since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 1,088 confirmed measles cases were reported by 33 jurisdictions in the US. Of those cases, 96% were in people who were either unvaccinated or whose vaccination status was unknown. So far in 2025, there have been 14 reported outbreaks and three people confirmed to have died of measles-related complications, all of whom were unvaccinated. Before this year, the last confirmed measles-related death in the country occurred in 2015.

Oregon reported having 97,474 firearms licenses on record in 2021; guns are in the households of 50.8% of Oregonians. The Beaver State averages two gun deaths a day and 77% of gun deaths in Oregon are suicides.
Good think the suspect only had a knife or some people would have been killed, like the typical mass shootings in the US that we are accustomed to.

This "Pearl Harbor" for Russia was made by possible by extraordinary Ukrainian military OPSEC and their spy network behind enemy lines. The armed Palestinian groups that seized 251 Israeli hostages on 7 Oct 2023 similarly exercised great OPSEC in their extensive planning and preparation before the raid, catching everyone by surprise in Jerusalem, Tehran, Wash DC, and Moscow. Only the Egyptian mukhabarat has an inkling of something afoot in the neighboring Gaza Strip. This type of discipline from the Ukrainians and the Palestinians demonstrates an uncommon resolve to resist a powerful, brutal enemy seeking their destruction. Link: www.timesofisrael.com
