An unidentified shooter or shooters, one of whom died during an exchange of gunfire with police, murdered at least one officer and a local resident in an attack in a Jewish neighborhood of Montreal, Canada.
Arutz Sheva (7INN) reported Monday that a shootout in the Côte-des-Neiges neighborhood, near a Chabad House and a kosher supermarket, was deadly. At least three people are dead, including a police officer and a shooter. The shooter also injured a second officer, and it was initially unclear whether she would survive. A later report from the CBC stated that she was in critical but stable condition. The latest update , as of around 3:30 p.m. Eastern time, reportedly identifies the civilian victim as Montreal resident Michael Moshe Mizrahi.
Chabad's emissary to Montreal, Rabbi Chaim Shlomo Cohen, spoke with Ynet and confirmed, "The shooting was at a building that is close to the Chabad House — from the hotel they fired at another building. One shooter was caught, and the other is apparently still being sought."
Despite the danger to the Chabad House as a potential target if the shooter or shooters were antisemitic terrorists, police did evacuate people from nearby hotels to the Chabad House. "There are a hundred of us here, the volunteers and the people who were brought here. I was sitting in my office, and suddenly the police came in, said that it was forbidden to leave the building, and evacuated people from hotels to us. We are fine," Shlomo said.
They're trying to make fun of Trump, even though he's the one trying to fix the problem ( and in some cases they're actively sabotaging him)? What a bunch of scumbags!
(See what I did there?)
The Left has become oddly obsessed with President Donald Trump’s $14 million renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The Washington Post kicked off the controversy with an article suggesting the project made little noticeable difference in the pool’s appearance. CNN, meanwhile, fixated on the algae bloom that turned the water a vivid shade of green, dispatching a crew to collect water samples and consult experts in what seemed like an effort to portray the renovation as a costly blunder. Buried deep within the report, however, was the key detail that algae blooms are a frequent occurrence after a pool has been drained and refilled. And I’ll get to ABC News‘ Jonathan Karl’s latest round of absurdity later in this post.
...
But even more troubling than the media’s fixation on the newly refurbished Reflecting Pool are reports of deliberate damage to the pool’s liner.
According to multiple media reports, former Olympic canoeist David Hearn, 67, was arrested Friday on a misdemeanor charge of destruction of government property after he was observed “interacting with a partially detached section of the pool liner.”
The three-time Olympian vehemently denied responsibility for removing the piece of the liner. He claimed that, at the end of a 52-mile bike ride, he decided to visit the Reflecting Pool to see the results of the renovations when he noticed an already-peeling piece of the liner in the water. He maintains that he merely touched it “to see what it felt like,” and insists that he “didn’t destroy or break or peel anything. By the time I realized what was happening, I was already being handcuffed.”
...
Here is (journalis) Miller’s video of Hearn’s arrest. She accused him of grabbing the hose that female National Park Service workers were using to clear the algae.
...
It seems unlikely that Hearn was the one who originally cut the section of liner from the pool because, 90 minutes before posting the video of his arrest, Miller reported that “a man” had been arrested for cutting out a “big piece” of the pool liner.
Additionally, Fox News reported that “multiple people” had been arrested for allegedly vandalizing the Reflecting Pool over the past few days.
According to Miller, “seven people were detained Friday and five people were detained Saturday in separate incidents, which has led to a major security surge.”
...
Oh, yes, ABC News‘ Jonathan Karl. He traveled to the Reflecting Pool last week to conduct what amounted to a theatrical inspection of the renovation. Karl reached down and pulled up the loose piece of the pool liner, triumphantly displaying it to viewers as though he had uncovered evidence of a major scandal. The segment was presented with all the gravity of an investigative exposé, despite the likelihood that the problem was caused by vandalism.
According to a new report from the Department of Homeland Security, members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corp attempted to smuggle themselves into the United States under the guise of the Iranian World Cup team.
...
Secretary Markwayne Mullin revealed the Iranian plot on Fox News Sunday morning.
“Most teams travel with around 120 people,” Mullin said. “That’s their support staff, doctors, coaches, everybody else that comes along with them and their delegation. We accepted 53 individuals coming in. The rest of the individuals Iran tried to bring in all also had direct ties to the IRGC and aren’t their normal traveling group.”
I gave up on watching news channels immediately after the 2024 election when I realized that in many ways, we as Dems had been as equally misled by MSNBC as Fox news viewers.
Help me understand this because I've just seen a few headlines and haven't done any investigation. I know that there's some algae bloom (or some such) in the reflecting pool and that there are some issues with the liner. Anyone who has been around construction knows that, regardless of how diligent contractor is, occasionally things happen which brings a negative result. I had just assumed that this stuff was in the "things happen" category, but is it actually a situation of evil demonrats MAKING it happen?
