Curtis Sliwa offends 911 Families, and indicates he's pro-Islam

I think the following disgust makes clear why Sliwa lost the election for NYC mayor almost 2 years ago:

Curtis Sliwa on Thursday told relatives of 9/11 victims who want New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani kept away from this year’s Ground Zero commemoration to “stop being sore losers,” arguing that they should respect the office even if they disagree with the person holding it.

“He’s the mayor. Stop being sore losers!” Sliwa told reporters Thursday. “You knew this is Zohran Mamdani. He was never a fake, phony, fraudulent, fugazi like a lot of politicians. He told you who he was.”

And what does that mean? Does Sliwa actually believe 911 Families voted for Mamdani?!? Or is Sliwa saying that because Mamdani made some of his repellent beliefs and platforms known, they should've literally accepted that a whole segment of NYC's populace would turn traitor by voting for him? I'm not sure what exactly Sliwa's driving at here, but the following should be telling something:

Sliwa also revisited a controversial exchange involving Cuomo and radio host Sid Rosenberg during the closing stretch of the 2025 mayoral campaign.

Rosenberg had joked with Cuomo, who was running as an independent, that Mamdani would cheer for the terrorists if another September 11 attack occurred while he held office. Cuomo chuckled before responding, “That’s another problem.”

Sliwa said Thursday that the comment damaged Cuomo politically at a moment when the former governor had been gaining momentum.

“He was gaining traction, and then he made that stupid remark and then didn’t handle it well,” Sliwa said. “And then Zohran exploited the hell out of it, as he should.”

“That was Islamophobic,” Sliwa added.

This says all you need to know what's wrong with Sliwa, and explains perfectly why he never discussed Mamdani in his own interview on Rosenberg's program. Now, maybe Rosenberg's the one who actually made a mistake there by joking about a serious topic, but it's bizarre how Sliwa doesn't seem to notice, and only seems interested in Cuomo. One of the commentors on the article said:

By using the word "Islamophobic" Sliwa has lost all credibility. As anyone with a functional brain knows it is simply a term of manipulation and abuse.

I always thought there was something really fishy about Sliwa.

He's just another two-bit political poser who will say or do whatever he has to for a photo-op or sound-bite.

His disrespect for those who lost family members in the 9-11 attack by Islam reveals what an iniquitous TOAD he really is.

Henceforth thou shalt be known as Slime-bag Sliwa!!!

For all we know, Sliwa was quite possibly helping Mamdani secretly during the election. Sliwa's made clear that as an alleged Republican, he's a poor example for a mayoral candidate, and it's to be hoped his repulsive attack on 911 Families will end his career aspirations. I hesitate to think if Sliwa would've helped build up Islam's presence in NYC more than it already is now. Another commentor said:

Curtis, calling 9/11 families “sore losers” is disgraceful. They didn’t lose an election. They lost husbands, wives, sons, daughters, fathers, and mothers to Islamist terrorists.

I visited Ground Zero when it was still essentially two enormous holes in the ground. I saw some foreigners standing in front of it smiling for pictures with a disposable camera. You don’t get it comrade.

Seeing people smiling for pictures in front of the place where nearly 3,000 people had just been murdered enraged me. I grabbed the camera, threw it over the fence, yelled at them, and Americans around me cheered.

You want to stand in front of the place where 3,000 Americans were murdered and treat it like a smiling tourist photo op? Go fK yourself.

And spare me the “Islamophobic” label. Criticizing Mamdani’s associations, or objecting to Hasan Piker saying America “deserved 9/11,” is not hatred of Muslims. Calling criticism “Islamophobia” does not answer the criticism.

You say we should “respect the office.” Fine. Start by respecting the dead and the families who buried them. America is not FOR you comrade.

Sliwa certainly made a pariah of himself. For all we know, he's probably of the Tucker Carlson crowd. He has no business representing NYC on anything, and he's disgraced the Guardian Angels security patrol movement he co-founded in the 1970s. If there's anybody else who doesn't belong anywhere near the 911 Memorial service, it's Sliwa.

If Piker's not sorry for what he says about Israel, then he's not sorry for what he said about the USA either

Hasan Piker's one of the most repulsive influencers in the Democrat party now, and what's told here should make clear nothing he says should be taken at face value:

Hasan Piker, a 35-year-old American streamer who broadcasts on Twitch to millions of followers, is one of the rising voices in Democratic politics. He describes himself as a Marxist, has said America "deserved 9/11," called for Zionists to be treated like neo-Nazis and declared that he would choose Hamas over Israel "every single time."

In recent months, he has moved from the screen to the campaign trail, becoming a prominent figure in Abdul El-Sayed's campaign. El-Sayed won Michigan's Democratic US Senate primary last week and could become the first Muslim elected to the US Senate. [...]

Despite his Marxist politics, the business he runs is thoroughly capitalist. According to Rolling Stone, nearly 50,000 subscribers pay $6 a month for his channel. After Twitch takes its 30% cut, that translates into more than $2 million in annual revenue.

Then he's obviously as much a grifter as he is an enemy of the USA and Israel. And no doubt, he harbors the same sentiments towards Europe (which has its own share of self-haters too).

The remark most closely associated with Piker came in August 2019, during a livestream in which he watched Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw being interviewed by Joe Rogan. Piker mocked Crenshaw, a former Navy SEAL who lost his right eye to an improvised explosive device in Afghanistan, and referred to the fighter who wounded him as a "brave soldier."

"America deserved 9/11, dude," Piker said during the same broadcast. "Fuck it, I'm saying it. We totally brought it upon ourselves." Only after two days of criticism did he walk the comment back in an interview with his uncle, Cenk Uygur, calling the remark "inappropriate" and describing it as a failed attempt at satire.

Blatant anti-Israel rhetoric

When it comes to Israel, however, Piker has not backed down. In January, he wrote on X that "Hamas is a thousand times better than a fascist settler-colonial apartheid state." When confronted with the statement in April on Pod Save America, one of the most influential podcasts in Democratic politics, he refused to soften it. "I stand by that," he said.

In that case, he's not sorry for what he said about the USA either. Some of these monsters pretend certain things if they think it'll cause people to lose interest in them, but it's not so simple, and men like Piker can always continue causing damage behind the scenes. And they can always boomerang back on their previous obscenities, along with concocting more horrific ones.

Here's some more about the podcasts Piker's been speaking on lately, and he's continued to make offensive statements, and now tries to make it sound like he's "walking back" what he said earlier, even though his excuses are very weak:

Anti-American streamer Hasan Piker said he “should have phrased things better” discussing his viral comments that America deserved 9/11 on Mehdi Hasan’s podcast two weeks ago.

The Hill reported on the podcast appearance, where Piker said he “could’ve phrased the statement ‘America deserved 9/11’ in a better way but held firm to his frequent use of “pejoratives” in describing racial groups.

One more clue why this is a most truly disgusting man who has no business being in politics any more than el-Sayed. Tragically, it's sadly possible that the latter will be elected to the Senate, and that's going to be very awful if it happens. And "satire"? That's one of the most repellent "defenses" possible to make. It's utterly sick. Piker shouldn't be allowed near the 911 Memorial any more than Zohran Mamdani.

More of the testimony of one of Timothy Busfield's early victims

Here's some recent news telling more about Eliza Roberts' terrible experience with the now disgraced actor/director Timothy Busfield, who was indicted earlier this year on at least 4 counts of sexual abuse against minors:

Although she described the incident in a sworn deposition three decades ago, she deliberately stayed away from media interviews because she did not want the attention that came with accusing a well-known actor.

That changed after the actor was indicted on four counts of criminal sexual contact with a child in New Mexico. The charges stem from allegations involving underage male actors on the set of "The Cleaning Lady."

Speaking to the Daily Mail, Eliza said hearing Busfield dismiss the accusations against him convinced her that remaining silent was no longer the right decision.

"The reason I decided it's time is because he is calling people liars who are telling the truth," she said.

According to the "Twist of Fate" actress, the account she was now sharing publicly was the same one she recently gave detectives investigating the current criminal case. [...]

Eliza Roberts says her encounter with Timothy Busfield began as an ordinary chance meeting. She recalled visiting the Children's Book and Music Center in Santa Monica to buy books for her children when she unexpectedly ran into the 69-year-old.

"I stopped in there to get some books for my kids, and Tim was there, and it was nice to run into each other," she shared.

The two spent time catching up, discussing their careers, children and family life. She described the conversation as pleasant before she says it unexpectedly shifted into deeply uncomfortable territory.

According to the casting director, Busfield allegedly began complimenting her before turning the discussion toward her marriage and sexual topics. Eliza decided to leave, believing the interaction had ended.

Instead, she claims Busfield followed her into the parking lot. She initially assumed he wanted to continue their conversation or say goodbye. What happened next, she says, caught her completely off guard.

"It was almost like a different person, and I was confused because I just didn't understand where that came from," the director recalled. "And he was in a world of his own. He looked like he was in the throes of a very intense moment that he was having that was all kind of at my expense."

Her 1994 deposition alleges Busfield made graphic sexual remarks, including describing intimate acts he wanted to perform and criticizing the sexual aspect of his marriage to his then-wife.

Timothy Busfield Deposition Led To An Emotional Confrontation Years Later

Years after giving her deposition, Eliza Roberts says Busfield contacted her directly. "He said, 'Eliza, how could you do this to me? We're friends,'" she recalled.

Rather than backing away from her testimony, Eliza explained that she challenged him over what she believed had happened.

In her words, "Yes, I thought we were friends, but do you remember what you did to me? It's the same thing you did to her! She's your kid's age! What are you doing? You're calling her a liar. Do you know how awful that is?"

According to the 73-year-old movie star, Busfield never apologized. Instead, he ended the conversation, and they never spoke again.

Her husband, actor Eric Roberts, said he stood behind her decision to testify because the allegations brought by the teenage actor reminded her of her own experience.

"She provided her statement because she saw what happened to her was happening to someone else," he said.

Eric added that his wife was especially upset because, in his view, Busfield had accused the teenager of inventing the allegations.

"She was p-ssed off because [Busfield] had been accusing the girl of fabricating what happened to her," he told the Daily Mail. [...]

Although Eliza tried to move forward after the alleged incident, she says the emotional impact never completely disappeared.

She recalled dining with her mother and sister at one of her favorite Italian restaurants in the early 2000s when Timothy Busfield unexpectedly walked inside with friends.

"He walked in with some friends into the restaurant and I burst into tears," she said. The reaction surprised her because she considered herself resilient, yet seeing Busfield immediately brought back memories she thought she had left behind.

Eliza told her family that she had recently reported him after another young woman alleged similar behavior.

It's absolutely atrocious what Busfield did, and additionally atrocious how his wife Melissa Gilbert is going miles out of her way to defend him and serve as his apologist. Mrs. Roberts is absolutely correct to speak out against Busfield now.

I also noticed somebody in the comments section telling the following:

I had a brief phone encounter with him in the 90s. A few members of our cast shot a local TV segment in front of his children's theatre in Sacramento, which was arranged with his office coordinator. Busfield was nice enough to appear on-camera, which was a bonus for us, as we hadn't received any confirmation he'd actually be there. After the cast left, I received a call at my office. It was Busfield. He screamed at me for at least five minutes, because the crew didn't stay to shoot an entire story on his theatre, something that was never previously discussed or agreed upon. "Do you know who I am?!" and "My publicist makes more money than you do!" -- were repeatedly screamed at me during the call. He was beyond livid. When the crew returned to the office, I told the field producer about my conversation with him. She was completely taken aback, and said he was perfectly nice when they were there. I'm not trying to pile on here, but the sense of an off/on switch with him tracks, even back then.

So in addition to being a wolf in sheep's clothing behind the scenes in TV and film, Busfield's also a creep in the business division. Now, he can yell in his prison cell for all we care. We definitely must hope he'll be convicted when the official trial begins next year.

Financial manager of SPLC arrested for fraud

More news about the now disgraced Southern Poverty Law Center, whose finance manager was arrested for fraud:

Former Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) chief financial officer Heidi Beirich was arrested in California and charged in the Justice Department’s case alleging that the organization secretly used donor money to pay informants inside white supremacist groups, CNN exclusively reported Wednesday.

Beirich, who previously led SPLC efforts to monitor organizations it identified as extremist or white supremacist, was charged in a superseding indictment with wire fraud conspiracy, conspiracy to submit false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to conceal money laundering, according to CNN.

Prosecutors allege Beirich helped oversee the use of donor funds to compensate sources operating inside extremist organizations. They also allege she shared a bank account with one of those sources while the two were in a romantic relationship.

“I believe she was part of the effort to open bank accounts in completely fictitious companies’ names and make payments to individuals for reasons that were not accurate as described,” Attorney General Todd Blanche said at a Wednesday news conference. “This is exactly what we said would happen in a case like this, which is that our investigators and the U.S. attorneys and the agents working the case will keep on working it even after the initial indictment.”

Some of these phony outfits certainly are some of the worst monetary fraudsters around. Now, one of their awful staff is facing consequences for her own involvement in illegal activities.

Zohran Mamdani's rhetoric created a dangerous atmosphere for Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to UN

NYC's first Muslim mayor has created a situation that disturbs the NYPD, because of the security issues it now entails:

New York City is bracing for a security nightmare next month when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits Gotham — and cops are blaming Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

The PM’s visist will now necessitate a massive, presidential-level police shield and furious NYPD sources told The Post that Mamdani’s reckless, anti-Bibi obsession emboldens radical agitators, leaving frontline cops and everyday New Yorkers squarely in the crosshairs.

“Basically, he’s making what would be considered a Category 1 hurricane that we deal with every year into a Category 5 because of his words,” a law enforcement source said.

Hizzoner is staunchly pro-Palestine and anti-Israel and called for Netanyahu’s arrest during his 2025 mayoral campaign.

He reiterated those threats last month before acknowledging the NYPD doesn’t have the authority to do so.

Mamdani then urged his radical base to “take to the streets” during Netanyahu’s visit, saying “one of the bedrocks of our city is protest.”

That has enraged many police officers who already have their work cut out for them, the law enforcement source said.

“We have to protect hotels, we have to protect wherever [dignitaries] go out to eat, we have to protect everything,” the law enforcement source said. “Having the mayor say, ‘Go ahead and protest, and he should be arrested’ . . . is unfair to your own cops.”

Netanyahu is expected to arrive in the city next month for the United Nations General Assembly and is scheduled to address the body on Sept. 26.

Netanyahu’s full schedule isn’t yet known so the final number of police officers needed for his detail is up in the air, but it could grow to 60 or more with “direct and peripheral” officers, police sources said.

Most dignitaries get a protective detail of one sergeant and eight detectives. Security at the event also includes federal and state agents, usually supplemented by the foreign nation’s own agents.

“What’s going to stop one of the protesters from becoming a vigilante and trying to hurt or God forbid kill him?” the source said.

Cops are also worried that protesters who think they’re acting on the mayor’s behalf “could cause an officer to get hurt or even killed,” the source said.

Mamdani's already caused so much embarrassment for NYC, and the worst part is whomever voted him into office, effectively proving they're okay with one day imposing sharia upon the Big Apple. Now, there's also a situation where danger's been increased for politicians, and for all we know, it could have horrific consequences.

Democrat dhimmitude in Massachusettes

In the state of Massachusettes, the Democrats who sadly dominate want to enact laws favoring Muslims:

Massachusetts Democrats recently sponsored a Senate bill creating a “permanent” government commission “on the status of people who practice Islam,” which would communicate with the government on how legislation affects Muslims and recommend Muslims for government positions.

The Senate committee on State Administration and Regulatory Oversight reported the bill, No. 2134 “favorably” and referred it to the Joint Committee on Rules, which referred it to the committee on Senate Ways and Means. That committee consists of a majority of democrats.

The commission proposed by the bill would accomplish eight different tasks, including serving as a liaison between the Muslim American community and the government, researching “Islamophobia,” recommending Muslim Americans for positions in the government and undertaking “activities designed to enable the commonwealth to realize the full benefit of the skills, talents and cultural heritage of American Muslims.”

What "cultural heritage" do they truly have exactly? This continued favoratism and doubling down on imposing the same is sickening already. It's another example of how several Democrat-dominated states are going down the drain to impose sharia upon their populace and replace the Constitution with something uncivilized. And they're doing all this about 2 centuries after the state had stopped upholding privileges for Protestants. All that does is make clear the leftists in Massachusettes are doing this because they believe a religion built upon darkness is better than one built on lightness.

Supposedly pro-Israel Democrat defeated by Abdul el-Sayed supports him despite his anti-Israel standings

The Democrats in Michigan held primaries for midterm USA elections, and somehow, it's just not shocking a Muslim candidate like Abdul el-Sayed would win, defeating an allegedly pro-Israel Democrat, Haley Stevens, in the process. But what's really head-shaking is that Stevens is willing to support el-Sayed in the upcoming Congressional elections:

Stevens answered, “Well, look, I don’t speak for Abdul, but I think he knows where I stood on that issue and where I continue to stand. I’m very focused on rebuilding the temple, where many of my friends have their precious children in day school. That was in my congressional district. It remains a serious matter. And I’m going to make sure that the voices and the folks who have been impacted all across Oakland County by that temple bombing and the voices of our Jewish community are heard, and I’m going to do that in the way that my involvement and participation in the American political process allows. Look, let’s be really clear, cause you’re relitigating a primary that’s over, it’s over. I said what I had to say, and I’ll — I stand by what I had to say, to be honest with you, and I believe Abdul heard me. But the deal is is that no American is my enemy. No Republican is my enemy. No Democrat is my enemy. We’ve got to cut this stuff out. We’ve got to start working together. We’ve got to start looking at this country as this beautiful, free place that we love. My views are going to continue to be on display. I’m going to continue to be in this party, speaking out against political violence, speaking out against antisemitic violence, and all forms of political violence and hate, absolutely. And, in the meantime, the competition’s still rolling. I think you guys in the media are going to be coming out to Michigan. This will be exciting. We know you love our state. That’s a good thing. Come and go to our small businesses. We need you there when you’re in town. But we’re going to do something special. This was a special, historic primary. We all know it. Everyone was calling it out, one way or another, that there was going to be a 15-point loss, and that wasn’t the deal. And that’s okay, that these guys had it wrong. And we just showed them the Michigan way, and that’s what we’re going to show you in November when we beat Mike Rogers.”

She may be employing stealth tactics, but when she says she's willing to work to defeat Republican Rogers, that's definitely telling. So what kind of "pro-Israel" Democrat is she anyway? If John Fetterman in Pennsylvania wouldn't back el-Sayed, Stevens shouldn't either. She's rendered her stance laughable and moot.

That aside, this is another sad indicator of where the USA's headed, now facing serious problems with Islamofascists running for public office, and who knows if anything will be done to prevent them from being able to retain the positions they're sadly bound to achieve?

Update: Fox News (via Front Page) reports that el-Sayed got funding from a certain very bad activist group:

Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign has collected more than $115,000 from individuals who work for or have held leadership roles with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which has been designated a terrorist organization by the United Arab Emirates and formally designated or labeled as such in Florida and Texas.

That's also bad news. Similarly bad is who else in Congress is also supporting el-Sayed's campaign (also via Front Page):

Schumer spoke with El-Sayed Wednesday, calling it a “great conversation” and praising the former Michigan public health official for a “very, very strong campaign” that mobilized Wolverine State voters who hadn’t been involved in politics.

Schumer pledged to “do what it takes to win,” brushing off his deep disagreements with El-Sayed over Israel. Other issues — healthcare, the state of the economy and tariffs — matter more to Michiganders, Schumer added.

Once again, Schumer's proven himself to be as bad, possibly worse, than Stevens is.

Update 2: an Iranian woman who became a lawmaker in Belgium warns about the encroachment of Islam in Michigan.

Federalist writer Eddie Scarry lets his hostility to Israel poke through the seams

Here's another example of how the Federalist's writers are going downhill, as their contributor Eddie Scarry, in pretending neo-cons are truly the ones against J.D. Vance, goes so far as to attack support for Israel from the right-wing side, and perpetuates the RINO opposition to the war on Iran's dictatorship:

Worth slightly more attention is what Thiessen wrote this week in The Washington Post. Recall that Thiessen is the Post content creator and former George W. Bush speechwriter whom Trump, for inexplicable reasons that may be explained in the future, has reportedly been reading and consulting privately about foreign affairs. Thiessen took an opportunity on Thursday to continue the very obviously coordinated attack on Vance planned by a slimy mix of neocons, lazy Republicans, and Israel Firsters.

Evaluating the Iran war, which has grown increasingly unpopular, even among Republicans, Thiessen wrote, “Perhaps it’s time for the president to take the advice of those who have delivered him success in Iran — not those like Vance who have failed him.”

Thiessen blames the failures in Iran not on what certainly look like short-sighted decisions by the commander in chief, but on Vance, whose primary responsibility in the conflict has been negotiating its end with Iran’s leaders. That’s at least honest. But let’s look at what Thiessen says a real victory, without any negotiation, would look like.

He wrote that the war’s objectives are: “eliminate remaining [Iranian] leadership figures; further entomb Iran’s nuclear sites; take out Iran’s remaining ballistic missile sites; destroy the economic and energy infrastructure that provides the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps with a financial lifeline, as well as key highways, railroads, airports and seaports by which the regime gets financial assistance from bordering countries; and demolish Iran’s remaining defense industrial base so it cannot rebuild its destroyed capabilities.” Then, with presumably a straight face, Thiessen said, “That’s it.”

Oh, is that all?!

Well, not really. Thiessen, perhaps to his credit, didn’t even pretend to hide the ball. Though having concluded, “That’s it” — just the complete decimation of a global energy supplier’s entire transportation infrastructure and economy — Thiessen went on to do the equivalent of, But wait! There’s more! He then said the U.S. would simply have to commit to keeping American troops just off the shore of Iran in perpetuity and “provide covert support” to Iranian rebels, in hopes that they might fight their own government. You know, just like they are now! Wait, that’s not actually happening, is it? Oh well!

Mr. Scarry ignores so much of previous research it's not even funny. He relies on reports from the otherwise shoddy AP Wire, doesn't pay any attention to the Tea Party Patriots research on the USA public's support for the war, and even ignores that much of the Iranian inhabitants are unarmed, making it difficult to fight against the Iranian government savages. If that's how Scarry's going to act, can somebody like that be counted on to fight against the Islamofascist regime being established in Europe? Or even the USA itself?

With this, the Federalist continues to send troubling signs they're not dedicated to freedom and liberty any more than say, Ron Paul, who was probably the role model for some of their more questionable writers. It's utterly head-shaking as it's sad they're becoming as overrun with phonies like Scarry, much like the Democrats are becoming overrun with Islamists and communists.
