Traditionally Democratic Hamtramck, Michigan, elected America’s first all-Muslim city council and a Muslim mayor in 2021. In June 2023, all six council members voted to ban Gay Pride flags from city-owned flagpoles, breaking sharply with the pro-LGBT stance promoted at the time by the Biden administration.
Two city commissioners were later removed after defying the rule and flying a Pride flag on a municipal flagpole.
A federal judge upheld the policy in 2025. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed that decision this month.
Hamtramck shows what happens when so-called progressive political alliances collide with deeply held religious and cultural values.
The Islamic Republic’s collapsing economic and military resources are becoming catastrophic for its proxy network, with Hezbollah now reportedly asking Iran for cash that has yet to arrive.
Iran just threatened to hit the U.S. HOMELAND.

Last month, CISA said Iranian hackers already hit 100+ water systems across 7 states.
In a post on his Truth Social account, Trump said the military was producing munitions at “levels never seen before” and has “far more than we could ever use”. He also again took aim at media outlets that have reported on US shortages of both offensive and defensive weapons, calling them “treasonous scum” who refuse to “accurately report” on the war with Iran.
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said strikes against IRGC targets began around 12:00 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, in response to “recent attempted attacks by the IRGC against commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and against American service members deployed to the region.”
US Vice President JD Vance says all options remain on the table against Iran and rules out talks unless Tehran halts commercial shipping attacks in the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran’s first vice president says the US has changed Tehran’s calculations, warning its response to US attacks will be “asymmetrical” and “multi-layered”.
The death toll from the US strike on an Iranian wedding party in the city of Sirik has risen to five.
South Korea is reviewing practical options, including military measures, for supporting freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, and says claims that Seoul had provided no assistance on the issue were “not true”, a presidential official has said.
Trump is increasingly signaling that regime change, not another deal, is his preferred outcome for the Islamic Republic. His rhetoric has shifted. Trump says he “couldn’t care less” whether the Islamic Republic signs another agreement…
The IRGC have taken significant personnel losses in the latest U.S. strikes, as more names of those killed continue to emerge. Seven more military personnel were killed Tuesday night in strikes on targets in Ahvaz and Aghajari in Khuzestan Province.
I’m hearing troubling reports that the Texas State Board of Education is being pressured by CAIR to whitewash the history of Islamic conquest, expansion, and jihad.
To my fellow Texas Republicans on the SBOE: do not back down. Do not bow to pressure. Texans students deserve to… https://t.co/R5ful6z9CN
It’s time for Americans and other Westerners to stop lying to themselves, and especially to youngsters. Islam is not a religion of peace. It is violent religion; infidels have suffered under it for centuries. That many Muslims choose not to adhere to its more violent commands is a good thing, but irrelevant. A few important passages from the Qur’an and Hadith:
I asked Allah’s Apostle, “O Allah’s Apostle! What is the best deed?” He replied, “To offer the prayers at their early stated fixed times.” I asked, “What is next in goodness?” He replied, “To be good and dutiful to your parents.” I further asked, what is next in goodness?” He replied, “To participate in Jihad in Allah’s Cause.” I did not ask Allah’s Apostle anymore and if I had asked him more, he would have told me more.” (Sahih Bukhari 4.52.41) Continue reading Texas is the Number One Islamisation Target in the US
Two weeks ago we covered one chapter Ahmed wrote in a Hizb pamphlet – published in 2002, and republished in 2017 (Ahmed was not involved in the republication) – where she attacked ‘western education’ as a ‘threat’ to Muslims, condemned democracy and integration, and criticised British schools for teaching pupils that child marriage is wrong.
However, the same pamphlet includes a second, even more radical chapter, co-written by Ahmed and another senior Hizb activist, Nazreen Nawaz, head of its women’s section.
This describes Hizb’s plan to create a fully Islamic education system as part of the Islamic dictatorship, the Khilafah, which is its core goal. As the chapter puts it: ‘nothing will be contained within the curriculum that contradicts with Islam, such as the teaching of the ideas of freedom, nationalism, democracy or evolution in a positive light’.
‘Nor can there be any schools established on any other religion, sect or race… Even the non-Muslims need to be educated under the educational curriculum of Islam… by pushing them to think about the correct belief in life.’
Trinity Assistant Professor of Education, Dr David Limond, was one of 179 signatories of “A statement in support of Nathan Cofnas’s Right to Academic Freedom of Expression”. Other signatories included Australian philosopher Peter Singer, Canadian psychologist Steven Pinker, and American philosopher Jeff McMahan.
The statement refers to another statement by members of Ghent University, in Belgium, calling on the university to rescind Cofnas’s appointment as a postdoctoral researcher. It cites part of a statement that claims his views “violate the university’s code of ethics and are morally beneath contempt”.
A large new mosque has opened in the small NSW town of Young, where one in 10 residents are now Muslim and the Islamic population is growing “exponentially”.
The Young Mosque, which is the largest in regional NSW and is owned by Sydney-based non-profit the Lebanese Muslim Association (LMA), hosted a Grand Opening event on Friday attended by hundreds of people, including Hilltops Council Mayor Brian Ingram.
The Irish police is being duly instructed how to serve their new masters:
Official Irish police training instructed Garda officers dealing with Nigerian families to approach the male head of the household first before addressing female family members. The training stated that it was “not uncommon” in Nigerian society for men to have more than one wife and told officers that “Nigerian women often prefer their husbands to speak.”

The release of the transcripts around Henry Nowak’s murder have revealed that Police Officers went back 6 years in his phone messages to when he was just 12 years old in an attempt to find anything they could use to describe him as a racist Sickening
The narrative is echoed throughout Western nations. It contradicts the truth and seeks to manipulate. It brands free and welcoming nations as places of intolerance and racism.
Nowadays, it seems that Muslims are finally willing to learn from the kuffars; observing the rhetoric that has served other discontented minorities in the West, they have learned how to evade rational engagement with the arguments of opponents, and instead cast themselves as victims, and the rest of us as fearful bigots.

More on Zanny, the superior entitled elite globalist:
Elon isn’t “painting”, he’s spitting facts. Her failure to see what Elon is decrying about the loss of the UK as a once great civilization is precisely what feeds the fall. It’s stunning really. She’s defending a system that imprisons thousands for mean tweets.
Here’s a Christian on X telling us how he really feels:
Elon Musk has made all government censorship requests publicly visible within the X codebase, ending the practice of secret pressure campaigns against speech. Transparency of this kind forces governments to operate in the open rather than through quiet demands for content removal. When the public can see exactly who is asking to silence which posts, accountability follows.
Musk said, “The European Commission offered 𝕏 an illegal secret deal: if we quietly censored speech without telling anyone, they would not fine us. The other platforms accepted that deal. 𝕏 did not.”
Britain’s reported discomfort with the change highlights how dependent some governments had become on opaque influence over online platforms. Free speech protections mean little if officials can quietly shape what citizens are allowed to see. Making those requests visible restores the proper balance between state power and public information.
Open records of censorship demands strengthen the platform and the principle of free expression. Users deserve to know when governments attempt to control the flow of information. Greater transparency remains one of the most effective defenses against institutional overreach.
Back to Australia:
In Australia social media is banned for kids under the age of 16 due to “safety” concerns.
These same kids are threatening to bash, shoot and murder Pauline Hanson.
The European Union is at this moment forcing big tech companies to secretly engage in mass censorship.
Google and Facebook are, apparently, going along with it. Only Elon Musk’s X, among the major platforms, is resisting.
A truly depraved policy. Gov’t locked us up for years during COVID, despite the fact that there was no risk at all. Children’s speech, mental health, socialisation, all interrupted. The *one* mitigation for authoritarian abuse was social media. And now this horrible regime is taking that too.
It’s not just Labor. It’s Lib/Lab, the uni party. Together they are a communist regime.
There is going to be a big backlash from http://kids.
The belief that every conflict can be solved at the negotiating table is not wisdom. It is Western vanity.
The assumption that every conflict can be resolved through negotiation is often treated as a mark of wisdom. But according to British journalist and commentator Melanie Phillips, it reflects a Western arrogance that assumes every society shares the same values, motivations and worldview.
Speaking with John Anderson, she argues that this failure to understand other cultures on their own terms has repeatedly led the West to misjudge the conflicts it faces – with dangerous consequences. Watch the full interview, ‘Iran, Trump, and the Weakening of the West’, on John Anderson’s YouTube channel.
