Anti-Israel protesters set up an “intifada” encampment on the campus of state-funded City College of New York Thursday — with participants raising a Palestinian flag over a quad. The encampment was set up Thursday morning, and by the afternoon the Convent Avenue campus was riddled with flags and signs, video from independent reporter Talia Jane showed. “Palestine calls this University Intifada,” Within Our Lifetime organizer Nerdeen Kiswani said into a megaphone, per indie reporter Oliya Scootercaster. “We have a right to control where our tuition goes and that it should never go to oppressing any people anywhere!” Kiswani added in...

What used to be her spot to catch some fresh air has become anything but for Bee Bletsian in the building she’s called home for 13 years. Just south of downtown Minneapolis, behind an old brick building on the corner of 5th Avenue South and East 24th street, on a city-owned lot, it’s easy to see why.

Someone who sent a drone over an airfield in Brooklyn, New York, discovered a massive migrant that has been hidden from the public, until now. The drone footage, posted on X, showed a massive migrant camp at Floyd Bennett Field. The video showed sprawling tent cities, which hammered home the sheer scale of crisis under Joe Biden’s watch.

It's allows the Dept. of Health to pick and choose which New Yorkers they can lockup or lockdown without any proof that you’re sick, without any proof you’ve been exposed to a communicable disease. There’s no time limit so they could lock you up or lock you down for days or weeks or months. There’s no location restriction. They can put you in any facility they want…And then once you are locked up or locked down, there’s no procedure in this regulation that says how you get out of quarantine once you’re in there.”

The city of Phoenix has cleared out its largest homeless encampment and displaced thousands of people after a court ruling declared the camp a 'public nuisance'. City officials successfully finished their clean-up of 'The Zone,' a 15-block homeless encampment near downtown, at the cost of $20 million and moved nearly 2,000 people out of the area. The sweep comes after a judge imposed a November 4 deadline to remove tents, trash and makeshift structures and told the city to find alternative housing for people experiencing homelessness. Some of the people who were displaced had lived in the area for years...

A meeting over Chicago's brewing migrant crisis in the Brighton Park neighborhood became heated as residents protested a planned camp that can house over 2,000 migrants, according to Fox 32 Chicago. Residents of the southwest side of Chicago neighborhood were fiercely divided over the plan, with city officials confirming their plans to build a camp for migrants on a "10-acre vacant lot, located at 38th and California," per the outlet. "The City of Chicago has been identifying viable sites across the city to construct base camps as an alternative to new arrivals sleeping outdoors, at O’Hare and on the floors...

A 98-year-old man has been charged in Germany with being an accessory to murder as a guard at the Nazis’ Sachsenhausen concentration camp between 1943 and 1945, prosecutors said Friday. The German citizen, a resident of Main-Kinzig county near Frankfurt, is accused of having “supported the cruel and malicious killing of thousands of prisoners as a member of the SS guard detail,” prosecutors in Giessen said in a statement. They did not release the suspect’s name. He is charged with more than 3,300 counts of being an accessory to murder between July 1943 and February 1945.

Troubling new images reveal the hellish conditions of a makeshift camp on the California side of the US-Mexico border, where migrants and their kids huddled in garbage bags, begging for food. The trash-strewn encampment — which popped up between a primary and secondary border wall in San Ysidro, hastily arranged by Border Patrol — is filled with people who were hoping to take advantage of the Biden administration’s end to the pandemic-era Title 42 and gain legal entry into the US. Since that expired and has been replaced with tougher new measures, their future became uncertain. Video shot by a...

The city of Phoenix will begin clearing the city's largest homeless encampment in the wake of a court ruling after neighbors brought a lawsuit against the local government. The homeless camp, known as The Zone, is located steps from the state Capitol building and the Arizona Diamondbacks' stadium. The city's Democratic Mayor Kate Gallego said in April that she agreed with the demolition of the camp 'in spirit.' While in March, Arizona's liberal Gov. Katie Hobbs vetoed a bill that would ban people setting up tents in public spaces. The lawsuit could be used to help other city's attempts to...

A property owner in Austin, Texas is begging the city for help in response to a homeless encampment that he says is negatively affecting his life and business to the point where he may have to pack up and leave. Pedro Morales, who owns a building in the South Lamar neighborhood of Austin, told Fox 7 Austin this week that a homeless encampment popped up in a narrow area by his building complete with bedding, shelving, kitchen items and a laptop. Morales explained to the outlet that the encampment started with just one person but then began to grow and...

A two-mile strip of road in posh Marin County, California – which George Lucas, Tony Bennett and Robin Williams have all called home – has been overrun by a vagrant camp that has brought drugs and devastation to the area. Binford Road in the city of Novato has devolved into a makeshift neighborhood of “tweakers” with hordes of people living apparently rent-free in a shabby collection of broken-down RVs and trailers parked at the side of the street. The Post counted 71 vehicles during a recent visit, where locals blamed local authorities for encouraging the encampment in the area —...

Self-proclaimed ‘trans angels’ rallied at a Tennessee gun control protest, one week after a trans-identifying mass shooter targeted a Christian school, killing six. The group of “trans angels” gathered in Nashville, Tennessee, at a protest for gun control organized by March for Our Lives, an anti-gun organization. The protest occurred just one week after a mass shooter, who identified as transgender, killed three children and three adults in a targeted attack on the Covenant School, a Christian school.

During an interview with FNC’s “Your World” on Thursday, Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) pledged her support for Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY). McConnell’s hold on his leadership post has come into question as Republicans seemingly underperformed in this week’s midterm elections.

The Biden administration has signed contracts indicating over $500 million could be spent to house illegal alien migrant children at a luxury private school campus in Greensboro, North Carolina for the next five years (with an additional five-year option). The site is the 100-acre former American Hebrew Academy that closed in 2019 but was saved with millions of dollars in loans from a Chinese company that effectively took over the school. The campus has been renamed the Greensboro Piedmont Academy Influx Care Facility for UC. UC stands for unaccompanied children, meaning Biden is incentivizing families to send their children alone...

New York judge overturned a law that allowed the state government to place even healthy citizens in quarantine camps for an indefinite time without review. Until July 8, the New York Department of Health had immense power to enforce quarantine measures on citizens. It received this power from the state’s Rule 2.13. Legislators never voted to allow the New York Commissioner of Health to put any individual into quarantine for any length of time. Gov. Kathy Hochul and the Department of Health ordered the rule’s protocols during the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, the state renewed Rule 2.13 every 90 days. The...

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) – Authorities late Thursday night and early Friday morning cleared out a large homeless encampment from downtown Los Angeles’ Little Tokyo.

A fence was placed around the plaza and city cleanup crews overnight removed remaining items, trash and debris. Several of the homeless, however, brought their tents to just beyond the fences and set them up on the sidewalks outside.

MELBOURNE, Australia (LifeSiteNews) —The Victorian government has opened its $200 million quarantine camp at Mickleham in Melbourne’s north. The government is claiming it will be used to replace hotels and become Victoria’s only quarantine site from April. It says the first cohort of “unvaccinated international travellers” has been checked in. If there is one clear message from the behaviour of the Victorian government over the last two years, it is that nothing it says can be taken at face value. Either the quarantine camps are a waste of money or there is a darker motive. As someone who has spent...

Details of Quebec’s draconian new vaccine passport scheme revealed. Under Quebec’s draconian new vaccine passport scheme, unvaccinated people who visit large stores like Walmart and Costco will have to be accompanied by employees to make sure they don’t buy anything other than food or pharmaceutical products. Yes, really. The rule is set to apply in big box stores so as “to make sure they (the unvaxxed) do not go and buy other products or other items that might be in the store,” according to a CBC newsreader. ...
