Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., appeared to shake off comments by the judge in the Derek Chauvin murder trial who said her “confrontational” remarks during a weekend protest in Minnesota could result in “this whole trial being overturned.” Judge Peter Cahill was asked by Eric Nelson, the defense attorney, to declare a mistrial due to prosecutorial misconduct and Waters’ comments at a Brooklyn Center protest on Saturday night.

ABC News reports there were multiple allegations, including girls being forced to spend most of their day on cots and having to use plastic bags to relieve themselves. One can’t help but be reminded of a statement by Biden Press Secretary Jen Psaki who was asked in February about something Former President Trump had said. “We don’t take our advice or counsel from former President Trump on immigration policy”, Psaki said. “We’re gonna chart our own path forward, and that includes treating children with humanity and respect….” That seems to include forcing children to relieve themselves in plastic bags.

Israel Police arrested two 19-year old Arabs from east Jerusalem who attacked a yeshivah bochur near Sha’ar Shechem, videoing the incident and then fleeing the scene. Lt. Col.

Social media is scene onto itself. We’re working to monitor videos of criminal acts.” Below is another Tiktok video of an Arab throwing a rock on a passing bus. במדינה מתוקנת, לא היו מעיזים לעלות דבר כזה.חייבים להתעשת!
