JOE KAHN LIES, GAZA DIES
Julius Sebastian Streicher was the first member of the Nazi regime to be convicted of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg Tribunal in 1946. His crime? Founding the newspaper Der Stürmer and publishing vitriolic, racist propaganda that helped incite a genocide. For this, he was executed by hanging.
Joe Kahn, the executive editor of The New York Times, is responsible for publishing the single most damaging piece of atrocity propaganda since October 7, 2023: “Screams Without Words,” a famously debunked article that relies on racist tropes and zionist hasbara to smear Palestinian resistance fighters as rapists. Hailed by Kahn as a “signature piece” and entered into multiple journalism competitions, this falsified investigation has been cited by U.S. lawmakers to justify U.S. support for the ongoing genocide. This is the legacy of Joe Kahn: publishing lies that are parroted by imperial puppets in corrupt governments the world over and touted as fact, enabling mass weapons shipments and reinforcing anti-Palestinian sentiment that propels the genocide and mass starvation of Gaza. After the claims of the piece were exposed as false, Kahn directed what the president of the NewsGuild of New York described as a “racially targeted witch hunt,” harassing and intimidating Arab and Middle Eastern employees in an attempt to identify the whistleblowers who revealed their lies.
The pages of the New York Times drip with the rhetoric of genocide accomplices and apologists. Times editors, executives, and journalists have proven themselves to be the bedfellows of the Zionist regime, benefiting from and profiting off of the atrocities their lies enable. To run media cover for U.S. imperial interests is to support and legitimize genocide, and to serve as a cog in the well-oiled war machine. To publish known lies is to abet the laundry list of Zionist war crimes. Those who commit such malpractice are not journalists; they are genocide propagandists, and their hands are stained red by the crimes that they incite, defend, and obscure. Words have power, and we will hold the genocidaires of the so-called “free press” accountable.
JOE KAHN, YOU CAN’T HIDE

Five envelopes containing suspicious white powder discovered at NYC ICE field office, building evacuated
August 15, 2025
Five envelopes containing a suspicious white powder were discovered at New York’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Manhattan Thursday afternoon – prompting first responders to evacuate the federal building, according to authorities.
Fire officials responded to 26 Federal Plaza on Foley Square just before 4 p.m. after personnel found the menacing letters containing the mysterious substance in the 9th-floor mailroom of the Jacob K. Javits Federal Office Building, officials said.
The historic address, also home to the US Department of Homeland Security, immigration court and other federal agencies, was swiftly evacuated as the fire department’s hazmat teams investigated.
There were no reported injuries, officials said.
“Right now, no threat remains to any employees or the public at this time,” Christopher Raia, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI’s New York office, told reporters during a news conference Thursday night.
“Sending threatening letters of this nature, whether real or a hoax… diverts valuable, limited law enforcement resources.”
Test results are currently pending to identify the white powder.
The envelopes will then be sent to the FBI’s Quantico lab in Virginia for further analysis as the agency launches its own probe.
The shocking incident, seemingly targeting ICE’s 9th-floor offices, comes two days after a federal judge ordered the agency to improve its immigration holding facility following complaints from jailed migrants over inhumane conditions.
The Lower Manhattan building has become a hub for arrests as the Trump administration continues its aggressive crackdown on illegal immigration.
ICE facilities and officers have been targeted by violence since the administration ramped up arrests and deportations.

Vandals Destroy Two More Central New York Golf Courses, Causing Extensive Damage
August 4, 2025
Local golf course owners are reeling after three separate acts of vandalism have left greens destroyed, causing thousands of dollars in damage.
Authorities are now investigating what they’re calling serious, targeted damage across Central New York.
The latest incident occurred at Barker Brook Golf Club in Oriskany Falls, where someone drove onto the course, leaving extensive damage behind. From tire tracks on the green to a cart in the pond.
North Shore Golf Club in Cleveland, New York, was also hit.
A UTV-sized vehicle tore through the course between 1:00 and 1:30 AM, leaving deep ruts across the 2nd and 4th greens.
The owner, Rob Caione, said, “These greens cost between 50 to 60 thousand dollars. This is a shame. Very sad.”
A few weeks ago, someone drove a vehicle onto the Skenandoa Club in Clinton, causing similar destruction, also owned by Caione.
The vehicle reportedly tore through the fairway and tees on hole 9, ripped through a bunker, and even left tracks across the green on hole 8. “I’m literally sick to my stomach,” Michael Intartaglia said. “We work so hard to keep our course immaculate.”

Finance CEO, cop, security guard, and a real estate employee killed
July 28, 2025
A Blackstone executive who oversaw Blackstone’s real estate fund, an NYPD officer working a paid detail, an employee of real estate firm Rudin Management, and a security officer.
LePatner joined Blackstone in 2014 after more than a decade at Goldman Sachs, according to Blackstone. While overseeing BREIT, a trust with a real estate portfolio totaling more than $53 billion in property, LePatner was also a member of Blackstone’s real estate investment committee. Blackstone is a global leader in private equity, real estate, credit and hedge funds, with over $1 trillion in assets under management.
Islam had worked as a police officer in the city for three and a half years and was one of two New York police officers working as paid security detail in the building.
The NFL told The New York Times one of its employees was seriously injured in the shooting.
The alleged shooter drove from Las Vegas. He went into 345 Park Ave. in midtown just after the end of business Monday armed with an M4 rifle and opened fire in the lobby and again on the 33rd floor before he eventually killed himself, officials said. Security video showed the shooter get out of a double-parked black BMW while carrying the rifle.
A former Granada Hills football teammate said he excelled on the field and led mostly by example.

Columbia will suspend, expel dozens of pro-Palestinian protesters
July 22, 2025
Columbia University informed dozens of students Monday that they are facing disciplinary action for their participation in the takeover and vandalism of the campus library in 2024 during a pro-Palestinian protest.
The disciplinary measures come as the university negotiates with the Trump administration over alleged civil rights violations and the loss of federal funding.
Columbia is expected to pay a multimillion-dollar settlement to victims of alleged civil rights violations, implement changes to its diversity, equity and inclusion policies, boost transparency about hiring and admissions efforts, and take other steps to improve security and safety on campus for Jewish students, according to one source familiar with the matter.
In return, the source said, the school will regain access to over $400 million in federal funding the Trump administration stripped earlier this year.
On Monday, the university informed more than 70 students that they would be suspended or expelled because of their actions in the May 7, 2024 library disruption and other pro-Palestinian protests that spring.
Roughly two-thirds of those will be hit with suspensions between one and three years, with the majority being hit with two-year suspensions.
Those involved were informed of their punishments on Monday following a probe by the elite school’s University Judicial Board.
On May 7, 2024, pro-Palestinian students took over the Ivy League institution’s library, chanting “Free, free Palestine” and beating drums, according to the report.
Some of the students vandalized the walls and tables, and two public safety officers reportedly were injured while trying to quell the mob, the report states.
A month earlier, the university went on lockdown after anti-Israel protesters took over a campus building, and two custodians said the protesters tried to keep them from leaving.
Police arrested more than 100 protesters after they took over Hamilton Hall, smashing windows, breaking through doors, and barricading themselves inside, while others refused to leave the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” on a nearby lawn, the student newspaper Columbia Spectator reported.
Later, Columbia canceled its campus-wide commencement ceremony in 2024, citing safety concerns.

Accused arsonist turns himself in for allegedly torching 10 NYPD vehicles
July 21, 2025
An accused anti-Israel arsonist has turned himself in to authorities five weeks after allegedly torching 10 New York City Police Department (NYPD) vehicles and a police trailer.
Jakhi Lodgson-McCray, 21, of New Jersey, was identified in mid-June through forensics and video evidence.
The NYPD has estimated the total replacement cost of the burned vehicles is over $800,000.
In requesting a detention order ahead of his initial court appearance, U.S. Attorney Joseph Nocella of the Eastern District of New York noted McCray set fire to the NYPD vehicles the Thursday before protests were scheduled over the June 14-15 weekend, “thereby compromising NYPD resources to protect and secure the public.”
The day after the NYPD vehicles were torched, McCray was arrested for allegedly lighting Israeli and American flags on fire outside the Israeli consulate in midtown Manhattan on June 13. He hadn’t yet been identified as a suspect in the burning of the NYPD vehicles. McCray, therefore, was charged only with reckless endangerment, menacing and disorderly conduct at the time and was subsequently released.
At approximately 12:52 a.m. on June 12, police said McCray was captured on surveillance video scaling the fence of a locked parking lot reserved for NYPD vehicles assigned to Brooklyn North. During the 32 minutes that he remained in the lot, 10 NYPD vehicles and one trailer were set on fire, according to the complaint. An officer came to inspect the lot at about 1:24 a.m. and witnessed McCray inside by the burning vehicles. McCray attempted to scale the fence to leave, but the officer blocked his route.
McCray was forced to double back and then fled through an existing hole in the fence, court documents say.
“NYPD personnel discovered what appeared to be a cigar lighter torch and a pair of sunglasses in the portion of the lot where the defendant Jakhi McCray hopped the fence and made entry to the lot,” court documents say. “NYPD personnel also discovered that 22 retail fire starters consisting of 12 ‘jealous devil boom starters’ and 10 BBQ dragon egg fire starers were placed on 3 unburnt vehicles. These fire starters had not been left by NYPD personnel.”
Court documents say McCray’s wallet and identification card can be seen on surveillance video when he paid for water about a 14-minute walk away from the NYPD lot around 1:51 a.m. He was wearing similar attire – a gray hooded sweatshirt and a blue surgical mask – seen in body-camera footage when he was arrested previously on May 19, investigators said.
On May 28, McCray was arrested for obstructing government administration, disorderly conduct, and resisting arrest in connection with a demonstration. In May 2024, McCray was similarly arrested for resisting arrest, obstructing government administration, attempted assault in the third degree and disorderly conduct in connection with another demonstration, federal prosecutors said.
The NYPD issued a press release on June 18 with photos of McCray to alert the public that he was wanted for arson. Instead of turning himself in, prosecutors said, McCray allegedly destroyed his cell phone in an effort to avoid arrest.
“Nearly five weeks after committing the offense, the defendant ultimately self-surrendered after his lawyer and law enforcement coordinated in arranging his self-surrender,” the detention request said.
