Sudan: Churches, Mosques, and Hospitals Attacked
as Junta Showdown Continues

“A Coptic Church was attacked on Sunday morning. Four people were hit by bullets and a priest was assaulted. Mosques were bombed. Two hospitals were raided, reportedly by the members of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF),” Radio Dabanga reported.

But let's take a look at how the RSF has ALWAYS been a threat for Sudan.

The RSF is the junta faction controlled by Mohamed Hamdan “Hemedti” Dagalo, a brutal militia that grew from the infamous Janjaweed gangs that formed in the 1980s under dictator Omar al-Bashir.

Many of the early Janjaweed fighters were merchants and camel traders banding together to protect their property. The name means “devils on horseback,” referring to their origins as irregular cavalry. Dagalo himself was a school dropout who made his living as a camel trader in Darfur before turning to militia warfare after his family trade caravan was attacked and massacred by bandits.

Bashir had the idea to organize the disparate Janjaweed groups and bring them together as a deputized force that could be deployed against his enemies. In 2013, he tapped Dagalo to head the renamed Rapid Support Forces, and their status was codified in the Sudanese constitution the following year.

The RSF proceed to accumulate a horrifying record of human rights abuses in Darfur, using rape, robbery, and murder as tactics against both rebels and peaceful demonstrators. The robbery tactic was particularly beneficial to Dagalo, who was given special authorization by Bashir to sell gold seized in RSF raids. The former camel trader soon became one of the richest men in Sudan.

Dagalo joined forces with the commander of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, to force Bashir from power in 2019. The two formed a working relationship after Bashir deployed both SAF and RSF forces to fight as part of the Saudi-led Gulf Arab coalition against the Iran-backed Houthi insurgency in Yemen.

This is another proof of how stupid it is to negotiate anything with militias, as it also has happened in Colombia, because they'll always revert back to their old ways, no matter how good the peace offer might be.

Five Migrants on Terror Watch List Arrested near AZ Border Post-Title 42

The source says the arrests of the foreign nationals who illegally crossed the border and attempted to avoid detection and apprehension occurred in separate incidents throughout the day and evening on Friday.
...
According to a U.S. Customs and Border Protection report, a total of 80 migrants who are listed in the Terrorist Screening Database have been apprehended after entering the United States along the southwest border between ports of entry this fiscal year. Two more were apprehended after crossing the northern border with Canada.

The data includes migrants apprehended between October 2022 and March 2023. The migrants whose names are listed in the TSDB differ from migrants who are scrutinized as being from special interest countries.
...
The number of migrants appearing in the TSDB skyrocketed under the Biden administration. During the four fiscal years of the Trump administration (FY 17 through FY 20) agents apprehended only 14 migrants appearing in the national security database. During FY 21, FY 22, and Year-to-Date FY 23 agents apprehended 196 known or suspected terrorists on the list, the CBP report states. These numbers do not include the arrests on Friday.

New Yorkers Say Their Hotel Rooms
Are Being Canceled and Given to Migrants

A couple, originally from New York but now residing in Florida, told the New York Post the 30 hotel rooms they had booked at the Crossroads Hotel in Newburgh, New York, were abruptly canceled to accommodate border crossers and illegal aliens.

Another couple, from Queens, New York City, said they had booked 37 hotel rooms at the Crossroads Hotel for their wedding but that the rooms, similarly, were canceled to make room for border crossers and illegal aliens.

The cancelations come as Mayor Eric Adams (D) has started busing newly arrived border crossers and illegal aliens out of New York City, a sanctuary city, to surrounding suburban counties, including Orange County, New York where the Crossroads Hotel sits.

Specifically, the Crossroads Hotel is enjoying a lucrative contract to house at least two dozen border crossers and illegal aliens as of late last week. Likewise, Adams vowed to bus migrants to Rockland County, New York but officials quickly secured a temporary restraining order, blocking the mayor from putting new arrivals up in a county hotel.

Orange County officials have filed a similar lawsuit against Adams, stating that the migrant relocation effort exceeds the mayor’s legal authority.

Mayorkas: White Supremacy the Greatest Terrorism Threat to U.S.

Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said on MSNBC’s “The Sunday Show” that a “rise in white supremacy” was the United States’ greatest domestic terror threat.

Host Jonathan Capehart asked, Today marks one year since white supremacists opened fire in a black neighborhood at the Top Supermarket in Buffalo. The president, yesterday at his commencement address for Howard University graduates, called white supremacy the major domestic terrorist threat in this country. Is that correct? ”

Mayorkas said, “It tragically is. And the terrorism context, domestic violent extremism is our greatest threat right now. Individuals are driven to violence because of ideologies of hate, anti-government sentiment, false narratives, personal grievances. Regrettably, we have seen a rise in white supremacy. The principal under lying our work is that when one community is targeted, Jonathan, when one community is targeted, we as a country are targeted.”

Americans should quickly kick out that blockhead from power for good.  He's the guy that should be the first official to remain silent unless the Congress can use his own remarks against him. He truly deserved to be impeached in no time.
Instead of simply securing the borders, he only cares about propaganda.
What about all of those hundreds of terrorists that have been crossing the southern border that are already in the terrorist watchlist?

Ukraine and Britain Announce Joint Effort to Get Ukraine Western Fighters

Kyiv appears to have dropped its campaign to get British fighter jets flying over Ukraine, instead taking the UK’s assistance in getting the more common, U.S.-made F16 Falcon instead.

Volodymyr Zelensky made a ‘surprise’ visit to the United Kingdom on Monday morning, meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak for what the Ukrainian leader said would be “substantive negotiations”.

...Ukraine has recently spoken of wanting to get 200 F-16s, to build five new squadrons.

On his last visit to the United Kingdom, President Zelensky thanked the country “in advance” for the British jet fighters he presumed were going to be handed over, going so far as to present the helmet of a Ukrainian fighter pilot to the Speaker of the House of Commons, Lindsay Hoyle, after addressing the Parliament.

Ferrari Says No to EVs: Will Stick to Traditional Combustion Engines

Legendary Italian car maker Ferrari has no intention of phasing out combustion engines and going fully electric or hybrid anytime soon, promising Sunday to keep making the eight and 12-cylinder engines it has made its trademark at least until the end of the 2030s.

The chief of the Italian manufacturer told the BBC in an interview it would be “arrogant” to dictate to customers what they can buy while at the same time walking away from the company’s heritage.

Ferrari instead wants to honor its history of high performance cars using traditional methods of propulsion.

It said electric cars and hybrids would make up an increasing proportion of its range by the end of the decade but would not totally take over manufacturing output.

...Ferarri boss Benedetto Vigna pointed to this decision as a sign that technology was evolving, and denied doing so would undermine the company’s environmental credentials.
...
“It is the client who must choose if they want an ICE (internal combustion engine), a hybrid or an electric car.”

Ban Gas == Bye-bye Freedom!

It has been proven in several occasions that EV's can burst in chemical flames that can't be extinguished as easily as normal flames. The EV's also get stuck because they freeze during winter. Electric trucks can't handle the same payload traditional trucks have always handled. Just go back to the report on New York's garbage trucks becoming unusable, totally unreliable this last winter.

If Ferrari really cared about their legacy, they wouldn't even care about electric cars at all. They've never been as reliable as traditional combustion cars, the simple but delicious taste of freedom for drivers all around the world.

Yes, there have been crises going on around the world because of oil prices. Yet, you can go to California and see how the state government has made it entirely impossible to drive those EV's. All of this happens because they ALWAYS go through some power crisis and citizens are asked to stay home and don't drive their own cars.  They even are blowing up their own dams that produce the vital power they desperately need! They're constantly looking for ways to impoverish its population by blocking fracking. They prefer to offer the homeless people needles and sometimes even drugs instead of electricity or gas or even food. Just ask reporters like Savanah Hernandez who have been there in San Francisco or Portland or even Philadelphia in the East Coast. The sad stories are all but the same.

And guess what's the common factor in all those cities? Well, it's not hard to guess. They're all run and ruined by leftists.
