A Hawaii Democrat running for Congress was arrested after allegedly threatening beachgoers before being knocked unconscious by a right hook.
Kirill Basin, 40, who is mounting a long-shot primary challenge against Rep. Jill Tokuda (D-HI), was cuffed and thrown behind bars on <a href="https://nypost.com/2026/08/04/us-news/hawaiian-democrat-kirill-basin-arrested-for-threatening-man-with-knife/">$1 million bail</a> after turning a sunny day at Keawakapu Beach into a physical altercation. Police hit the Democrat with two felony counts of first-degree terroristic threatening after he allegedly brandished a knife and implied he was armed.
Video of the August 1 seaside spectacle shows the wannabe lawmaker strutting around, appearing to harass beachgoers after someone asked him to lower the volume of his music. Threatening to send people to the hospital, Basin turned his fury toward a woman, saying that he would &#8220;put [her] in the ground.&#8221;
That’s when local Maui resident Kama Homan stepped in. When the belligerent candidate shoved Homan, the martial-arts-trained bystander answered with a left-right combo that dumped Basin over the beach chairs — and when Basin got up swinging a chair, Homan batted it aside and laid him out cold with one punch. After reviving the Democrat, Homan offered a succinct warning: &#8220;Watch your f*cking mouth, Haole boy.&#8221; Unhinged, Basin staggered back to his feet, charged toward Homan again, shouting &#8220;Come on, b*tch!&#8221; and allegedly pulled a five-inch switchblade.
Police later recovered the knife from the water, landing the defeated candidate in a cell with strict court orders to stay off the beach, stay sober, and undergo a mental health assessment if he manages to post his million-dollar bond.
Basin’s <a href="https://kirill4congress.com/">campaign website</a> boldly trumpets his slogan: &#8220;FIGHTING. WITH ALOHA.&#8221; His platform preaches that &#8220;hate and grievance&#8221; ruin politics, insisting that Americans &#8220;must act with love. Urgently.&#8221; The candidate’s site also promises &#8220;Courage to lead&#8221; and &#8220;Compassion to serve.&#8221;
Unfortunately for Maui residents, this isn&#8217;t the first time the chaotic candidate has confused &#8220;Aloha&#8221; with assault. Back in May, Basin was arrested after allegedly <a href="https://www.civilbeat.org/2026/05/longshot-congressional-candidate-pulled-gun-on-maui-county-workers/">storming</a> a Maui County government building with a gun and threatening two employees during a bizarre rage episode. Just days before that incident, police had to physically escort him out of a South Maui town hall after he <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/hawaii-democratic-house-candidate-faces-felony-threat-charges-beach-fight-caught-video">harassed</a> a council member and his assistant, earning himself a restraining order after firing off terrifying texts declaring, &#8220;you’re f*cked.&#8221;
In a paranoid social media post shortly before the May incident, Basin even claimed three police officers tortured him for 14 hours, vowing his lawsuit would ensure &#8220;it’ll never happen to anyone again.&#8221;

Dem Candidate Gets Rocked By Good Samaritan After Harassing Beachgoers

Democratic members of a Senate Judiciary subcommittee announced Tuesday that they will <a href="https://jewishinsider.com/2026/08/democrats-plan-to-boycott-senate-judiciary-subcommittee-hearing-on-muslim-brotherhood/">refuse to participate</a> in a hearing on Wednesday focused on Muslim Brotherhood networks within the United States.
The boycott targets a session organized by Federal Courts Subcommittee Chairman Ted Cruz (R-TX), titled “Hidden in Plain Sight: Confronting the Muslim Brotherhood Network in America.” The proceeding aligns with broader initiatives by national and state Republicans aimed at cracking down on the group, which includes proposals to classify its various branches as terrorist organizations.
In a joint <a href="https://www.whitehouse.senate.gov/news/release/senate-judiciary-courts-subcommittee-democrats-blast-cruzs-hearing-targeting-the-muslim-community/">statement</a>, Democratic Senators Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Alex Padilla (D-CA), and Peter Welch (D-VT) sharply criticized the panel&#8217;s focus, writing, “Scapegoating Muslims may be a Texas Republican strategist’s idea of ‘solid gold’ to whip up their voters, but Democrats have no intention of indulging this political creepshow, particularly after the recent violence targeting places of faith. Our focus is the costs families face thanks to rampant, non-stop Trump corruption.”
Responding to news of the planned walkout, a spokesman for Cruz dismissed the Democrats&#8217; decision, indicating that the boycott was expected.
The hearing&#8217;s scheduled witness list features several counterterrorism and legal policy experts, including former FBI Special Agent Lara Burns, who is currently with George Washington University&#8217;s Program on Extremism; Arielle Klepach, senior counsel at the National Jewish Advocacy Center; and Kyle Shideler, a homeland security analyst at the Center for Security Policy.
In January 2026, the Trump administration officially <a href="https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0357">designated</a> three Middle Eastern branches of the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist entities: the Lebanese Muslim Brotherhood, the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, and the Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood.
Last year, the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy published a landmark report and companion analytical briefing titled “<a href="https://isgap.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/MB-Project-Final-251117-01.pdf">The Muslim Brotherhood’s Strategic Entryism into Western Society: A Systematic Analysis</a>.”
The report examined how the Muslim Brotherhood executes a long-term, non-violent strategy aimed at embedding Islamist ideology within Western social, political, and academic institutions.
The report cited authenticated internal documents (notably the 1982 &#8220;Project&#8221; and the 1991 &#8220;Explanatory Memorandum&#8221; recovered during U.S. law enforcement actions).
The Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy identified four primary arenas where the Muslim Brotherhood tries to gain entry:
<blockquote>
Influencing government and politics: They build connections with government officials and lawmakers by presenting themselves as normal civil rights, religious, or human rights groups. They also team up with progressive or non-religious political groups when they share common goals, helping them gain trust and political power.
Targeting colleges and students: They try to shape what is taught in universities, who gets hired as professors, and what research gets done. They use hidden money from Middle Eastern countries (like Qatar) to fund college programs and influence classes on world politics. They also work with student activist groups to make anti-Western and anti-Israel ideas seem normal on campus.
Using the legal system: They use democratic laws and anti-discrimination rules to fight against police oversight and government terrorism investigations. They also use lawsuits to quiet their critics by claiming that any criticism of their political movement is just religious hatred or bigotry.
Controlling the media and storyline: They try to control public opinion by making people feel that criticizing political Islam is the same thing as being prejudiced against all Muslims. At the same time, they build their own network of community centers, private schools, and charities to keep control over local Muslim communities and preserve their identity.

An enraged Ohio dad took matters into his own hands after his wife made a horrific discovery on his 11-year-old daughter’s phone: graphic footage allegedly showing a 20-year-old predator sexually assaulting the child inside their own Grove City home.
The very next day, 31-year-old Malik Chandler decided to turn the tables on the suspect, Diego Montoya Gonzalez. Posing as his young daughter on TikTok, Chandler <a href="https://www.10tv.com/article/news/local/bond-set-rape-suspect-who-was-shot-by-11-year-old-victims-father/530-324c45ef-4adc-4054-8c32-a5090a66bf07">tricked</a> the alleged rapist into returning to the residence, CBS Columbus affiliate WBNS reported.
According to court documents, Chandler’s original plan was simple: dish out a severe beating, hold the perpetrator down, and wait for law enforcement to pull up. But when Montoya Gonzalez arrived at the apartment, the confrontation escalated instantly.
Chandler told investigators that as soon as he opened the door and confronted the visitor, the suspect reached into his pocket. Fearing the man was grabbing a gun and having previously seen him flaunting a firearm in TikTok videos, Chandler snatched his own handgun off the counter and fired, striking Montoya Gonzalez twice.
The wounded suspect scrambled away before collapsing in a nearby chair, where responding officers found him bleeding. He was rushed to Grant Medical Center in Columbus for treatment. Chandler, meanwhile, put his weapon back on the counter and surrendered to arriving police without further incident.
The protective father was subsequently hit with a felonious assault charge, with a judge setting his bond at $100,000.
Montoya Gonzalez soon faced his own severe reckoning in court. A grand jury indicted him on heavy charges, including rape, pandering sexually oriented material involving a minor, and obstructing official business. Prosecutors <a href="https://www.10tv.com/article/news/local/bond-set-rape-suspect-who-was-shot-by-11-year-old-victims-father/530-324c45ef-4adc-4054-8c32-a5090a66bf07">revealed</a> that a search of the suspect&#8217;s phone uncovered a nightmare cache of child abuse media, including a clip depicting an infant or toddler.
Appearing in Franklin County Common Pleas Court while the victim’s parents watched on, Montoya Gonzalez entered a not-guilty plea. A judge <a href="https://nypost.com/2026/08/04/us-news/dad-poses-as-daughter-11-on-tiktok-to-lure-her-alleged-rapist-to-home-to-shoot-him/">set his bail</a> at a combined $70,000. If he manages to post bond, the accused predator is subject to strict conditions: he must stay entirely clear of the victim and her family, and he is barred from using the internet for any non-work purposes.

Karma just landed on the tarmac, and it seems Israel is getting the ultimate last laugh at Ireland’s expense.
The hyper-anti-Israel Irish government thought it was scoring political points by virtue-signaling its way through foreign policy. But its obsession with boycotting the Jewish state has literally left its own ruling class grounded in the fog.
According to a shocking <a href="https://www.thejournal.ie/dassault-falcon-6x-irish-air-corps-government-jet-elbit-7117818-Aug2026/?lang=en">report</a> from The Journal, Ireland’s brand-new $61 million Dassault Falcon 6X government jet, which was purchased specifically to transport top officials and ministers was delivered without a vital, state-of-the-art infrared mapping system.
Why? Because the cutting-edge &#8220;FalconEye&#8221; system, which uses specialized infra-red technology to allow pilots to safely land through low visibility and thick fog, happens to be manufactured by Elbit Systems, a top Israeli defense company.
Rather than signing off on a contract with an Israeli vendor, stubborn Dublin bureaucrats threw a geopolitical temper tantrum and opted to leave the safety feature completely off the plane.
Now, the ruling elite’s shiny new joyride is rendered practically useless whenever the weather gets dicey.
The Journal wrote: &#8220;We asked the Department of Defence in April was the lack of the system limiting the use of the aircraft. It responded: &#8216;While it would not be appropriate to provide further comments on the specification of the aircraft it can be confirmed that there are no current limits on the operational capability of the aircraft.&#8217; &#8230; While the State’s response to our query says there are no current limits on the operational capability, the well-placed sources we spoke to all said the absence of the system placed limits on the range of options available to pilots.&#8221;
Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face; while everyday pilots rely on advanced technology to stay safe in unpredictable skies, Ireland’s grandstanding politicians are voluntarily risking mid-air diversions and grounded flights just to keep its anti-Israel boycott intact.
This self-inflicted humiliation is just the latest chapter in Ireland’s obsessive crusade against Israel. Over the past few years, Dublin has eagerly led the anti-Israel charge in Europe. From becoming the first European country to push bills <a href="https://www.jpost.com/diaspora/antisemitism/article-859160">targeting goods</a> from Judea and Samaria, to <a href="https://www.algemeiner.com/2024/05/28/spain-norway-ireland-officially-recognize-palestinian-state-denmarks-parliament-rejects-proposal/">formally recognizing</a> an imaginary Palestinian state, and repeatedly leveling <a href="https://www.breakingnews.ie/israel-hamas/leo-varadkar-says-israel-has-become-blinded-by-rage-1588287.html">inflammatory charges</a> against the Israeli military, Irish leadership has missed no opportunity to smear the Middle East&#8217;s only democracy. The hostility became so toxic that Israel <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/15/europe/israel-ireland-embassy-closure-intl/index.html#:~:text=%E2%80%9CThe%20actions%20and%20antisemitic%20rhetoric,to%20a%20foreign%20ministry%20statement.">officially closed</a> its embassy in Dublin, citing the country&#8217;s relentless double standards.
Irish leaders like Deputy Prime Minister Simon Harris have insisted their policies are merely about &#8220;human rights,&#8221; but this latest blunder exposes the sheer stupidity of the country&#8217;s woke dogma. In its rush to appease radical leftists and boycott Jewish technology, the Irish government ended up crippling its own official aircraft.
While Dublin’s political class sits stranded on the runway waiting for the fog to clear, Jerusalem is undoubtedly enjoying a well-deserved chuckle.
It turns out that when you build your entire foreign policy around anti-Israel spite, the only thing you end up blindsiding is yourself.

Wisconsin democratic socialist gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong is refusing to dish out a straight answer after getting caught trying to carve up one of America’s most beloved holidays.
</div>
<div>
In an appearance on CNN, Hong dodged the question when host Kaitlin Collins pressed her on a deleted 2020 social media post where the leftist politician declared that Americans &#8220;should cancel Thanksgiving&#8221; and claimed the nation &#8220;should have done this in 1621.&#8221;
</div>
<div>
Instead of giving a simple yes or no on whether she still wants to ax Turkey Day, Hong offered up a scrambled word salad about her history as a chef. She served up platitudes about &#8220;bringing folks around the table&#8221; while simultaneously validating Left-wing grievances, claiming the holiday is &#8220;incredibly painful for many people in our communities&#8221; and noting that &#8220;views can evolve.&#8221;
</div>
<div>
Hong also dodged the question when asked about her prior statement that prison should be abolished. Collins asked, &#8220;You said you don&#8217;t support abolishing prisons. Do you still hold the view that you laid out in May, which was that in a perfect world it would be a world without prisons?&#8221;
&#8220;I think talking about what may be aspirational and then understanding the role of the governor, what they can and cannot do, and what is implementable right now,&#8221; Hong answered. &#8220;These are different conversations.&#8221;
Hong&#8217;s fence-sitting dodge regarding Thanksgiving comes straight out of the modern leftist playbook, as Left-wing activists and media outlets have spent years trying to ruin the holiday for hard-working Americans. Rather than celebrating family and gratitude, the radical Left has consistently rebranded Thanksgiving as a monument to colonial oppression and violence.
</div>
<div>
Mainstream media outlets have repeatedly joined the anti-Thanksgiving choir. Headlines in Time Magazine <a href="https://time.com/5457183/thanksgiving-native-american-holiday/">explicitly branded</a> the holiday a &#8220;harmful lie,&#8221; while The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/11/23/violence-root-our-thanksgiving-myth-has-been-hemispheric/">ran pieces</a> smearing the nation&#8217;s traditional gathering by highlighting &#8220;hemispheric&#8221; violence at the root of the &#8220;myth.&#8221; Leftist publication The Nation joined the fray by <a href="https://www.thenation.com/article/society/thanksgiving-debate/">insisting</a> the feast&#8217;s history is intertwined with colonial aggression, arguing that the holiday must be &#8220;decolonized.&#8221;
</div>
<div>
Meanwhile, far-Left outlets like the World Socialist Website have <a href="https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/11/27/uynt-n27.html">trashed</a> the annual feast as a bitter symbol of economic inequality and capitalist rot. Activists have even taken to Change.org to <a href="https://www.change.org/p/end-the-wall-street-journal-s-thanksgiving-insult-to-native-americans">demand</a> major newspapers stop publishing historical Pilgrim accounts, labeling them inherently racist, while radical voices across social media continue to lecture families that serving a turkey honors historical oppression.
</div>
<div>
Hong&#8217;s refusal to disavow her past comments shows just how deeply these radical anti-American talking points have taken root among leftist politicians.

The WNBA’s double standard on free speech is officially out of bounds.
Women&#8217;s sports advocate Riley Gaines pulled no punches on Monday night, telling Fox News that league handlers tried to silence her support for Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham. Appearing on &#8220;Hannity,&#8221; Gaines said that arena officials asked her to put down a benign, completely non-political sign praising Cunningham while Left-wing propaganda was prominently displayed on the arena&#8217;s Jumbotron.
&#8220;The league often says they have a problem with people like Sophie bringing politics into sports. The league doesn&#8217;t have a problem with politics in sports. They have a problem with conservative politics in sports,&#8221; Gaines told host Sean Hannity.
Gaines recounted sitting in the Target Center during a Minnesota Lynx home game holding a small poster that simply read, “Sophie, thank you — a girl mom.” Despite strictly adhering to arena rules, an official approached Gaines and requested that she put the sign away.
Yet, as Gaines pointed out, Minnesota coach Cheryl Reeve strolled the sidelines wearing a &#8220;Trans Kids Belong&#8221; shirt while others wore pro-trans shirts featuring an image of a knife even as the arena&#8217;s Jumbotron repeatedly highlighted fans draped in Pride and trans flags. &#8220;If Protect Women&#8217;s Sports is deemed political like they say, then so is Trans Kids Belong,&#8221; Gaines slammed.
After Gaines pushed back, she said she was ultimately allowed to keep the sign displayed, and the arena staffer returned and apologized.
The WNBA finds itself engulfed in an explosive culture war sparked by Cunningham, who has spoken out against allowing men to compete in women’s athletics. Cunningham ignited the firestorm by <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wnba-star-breaks-with-league-on-explosive-issue">telling</a> ESPN she wants to &#8220;protect young girls in a locker room,&#8221; later <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sophie-cunningham-triples-down-on-haters-with-ice-cold-instagram-post">doubling down</a> on Instagram with a blunt message to her critics: &#8220;I said what I said.&#8221;
While Cunningham’s common-sense stance has earned her praise from high-profile figures, including Gaines and White House Press Secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/karoline-leavitt-rips-leftist-backlash-to-sophie-cunninghams-trans-sports-comments">Karoline Leavitt</a>, it has drawn intense hostility from leftist fans and league insiders. Gaines noted that Cunningham was relentlessly booed by the Minnesota crowd every time she stepped onto the hardwood.
Meanwhile, WNBA leaders continue to hide behind corporate double-talk. Asked point-blank about men in female sports, Fever head coach Stephanie White<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sophie-cunninghams-coach-asked-where-she-stands-on-men-in-womens-sports?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=4&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Sophie+Cunningham%E2%80%99s+Coach+Asked+Where+She+Stands+On+Men+In+Women%E2%80%99s+Sports"> offered</a> a classic corporate dodge, claiming she wasn&#8217;t &#8220;educated enough from a scientific standpoint.&#8221;
The hostility has even boiled over into the stands. During a recent Fever road trip to Seattle, Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton was suspended from attending her team&#8217;s next five home games after <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wnba-co-owner-accused-of-cursing-out-teen-girls-over-xx-xy-shirts?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=8&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=WNBA+Co-Owner+Accused+Of+Cursing+Out+Teen+Girls+Over+XX-XY+Shirts">launching</a> an expletive-laden tirade against two 16-year-old female fans wearing gear in support of Cunningham&#8217;s position.
Despite the intimidation tactics, Gaines insists that Cunningham remains unshakable and uncancelable.

Pack your bags and hide the daytime Emmys: Rosie O’Donnell has officially announced her plan to torment daytime television once again with an upcoming appearance on Season 30 of &#8220;The View.&#8221;
Apparently, <a href="https://abcnews.com/GMA/Culture/rosie-odonnell-reveals-moved-us/story?id=119707526">moving across the Atlantic</a> wasn&#8217;t enough to keep the 64-year-old off our screens. Speaking on Monday’s &#8220;The Tangle With Kyle Ridley&#8221; podcast, the professional grumper <a href="https://pagesix.com/2026/08/03/entertainment/rosie-odonnell-confirms-season-30-return-to-the-view/?utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_campaign=nypost">confirmed</a> she’ll be dropping in for the show&#8217;s milestone anniversary bash. But don&#8217;t panic just yet; she claims she’ll strictly be showing up &#8220;just as a guest&#8221; to take part &#8220;in whatever way they want.&#8221;
&#8220;They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think,&#8221; O’Donnell declared, puffing her chest out over a show she routinely trashes every chance she gets.
Naturally, Rosie couldn&#8217;t resist doing what she does best: airing dirty laundry and blaming everyone else for her own past televised meltdowns. Reflecting on her chaotic stints during Seasons 10 and 18, she took a swing at Whoopi Goldberg, lamenting that they weren&#8217;t the &#8220;Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen&#8221; dream team she expected. Instead, Rosie speculated that the 70-year-old Goldberg must have felt &#8220;encroached upon&#8221; by her presence.
She also dragged the show’s backstage atmosphere, calling it a talent-churning &#8220;factory&#8221; run by men. This came despite <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/not-something-id-ever-do-again-rosie-odonnell-doesnt-talk-fondly-of-her-time-on-the-view">previously swearing</a> on Brooke Shields’ podcast in 2023 that she would never step foot near the show again because defending &#8220;basic principles of humanity&#8221; was just too much work for her superior talents.
The big TV comeback announcement comes right on the heels of Rosie dramatically fleeing the United States altogether. Throwing the ultimate celebrity temper tantrum over Donald Trump&#8217;s presidential victory, the former talk show host packed her bags, grabbed her &#8220;non-binary&#8221; child Clay, and defected to Europe to chase down an Irish citizenship.
Rosie bragged on TikTok about sleeping so much better in her self-imposed exile, away from the &#8220;terrifying&#8221; politics of America. It&#8217;s just the latest chapter in her epic, two-decade-long obsession with Trump, which started way back in 2006 when she trashed him on live TV and he famously labeled her a &#8220;real loser.&#8221;
So while Ireland is stuck dealing with O&#8217;Donnell&#8217;s political doom-scrolling, American audiences will have to brace themselves when the ultimate daytime diva flies back to reclaim her moment in the spotlight.
Get the mute button ready.

A tense Oxford Union debate on whether the West is right to be suspicious of Islam erupted into high-stakes confrontation when an Oxford student told far-Right activist Tommy Robinson that he was lucky the university provided security to prevent leftist protesters outside from attacking him.
Addressing Robinson, whose legal name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, the student highlighted the large demonstration gathering outside the union building. She warned him that without the security provided by the union&#8217;s leadership, he would be &#8220;quite literally cooked.&#8221;
&#8220;Stephen, there is a crowd outside rioting against you tonight,&#8221; she said, “and without the protection and generosity of the Muslim-Palestinian president and a mostly South Asian executive committee, you’d be quite literally cooked.”
Robinson had blamed leftist protesters for the unrest, arguing that it was his opponents, rather than his supporters, who were creating chaos and clashing with law enforcement outside the venue.
To justify suspicion of the religion, Robinson <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aqzr_C9UZMw">pointed</a> to severe legal and social measures enforced across Muslim-majority nations. He highlighted that 24 countries where Islam is the state religion criminalize homosexuality, with eight prescribing the death penalty. Responding to an audience member who questioned where Islamic texts sanction such executions, Robinson insisted the argument belonged not with him, but with countries like Iran and Saudi Arabia that enforce these laws, as well as extremist groups like ISIS and Hamas.
Robinson further cited capital and corporal punishments across the Islamic world, pointing to canonical legal codes that mandate lashing and stoning for adultery. He cited a seminar by a prominent U.K. imam, saying, &#8220;In 2023, the head imam of the Green Lane Mosque, the head imam — you can watch this video — actually gives a seminar to his congregation on how we keep the modesty of the woman before we smash rocks at her head. You see, she has to be buried up to a certain level to preserve her modesty.&#8221;
Expanding his critique to religious minorities and civil rights, Robinson claimed that centuries of persecution following early Islamic precedents had virtually eliminated Jewish and Christian populations across the Middle East. He also targeted the issue of child marriage, pointing out that seven of the 10 nations with the highest rates of child marriage are Muslim-majority states due to the absence of a defined minimum marriage age in their laws.
Closing his address, Robinson framed his position as a defense of classical liberal values, saying, “Ladies and gentlemen, if you care about gay rights, if you care about women&#8217;s rights, if you care about children&#8217;s rights, If you care about human rights, or if you care about free speech, I urge you to support this motion.”

An ESPN commentator urged fans to listen to Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve’s pro-transgender comments, all while Reeve took to the court wearing a &#8220;Trans Kids Belong&#8221; shirt on Sunday.
During Sunday’s clash between the Lynx and the Indiana Fever, ESPN color analyst Rebecca Lobo didn&#8217;t hold back in hyping up the Minnesota coach&#8217;s political message.
&#8220;I would encourage anyone to go and listen to Cheryl Reeve&#8217;s comments; incredibly thoughtful, easy to find online. I would just encourage anyone to go and listen,&#8221; Lobo declared during the broadcast.
Play-by-play caller Ryan Ruocco pointed out that Reeve was sporting the pro-trans statement on her chest following a week of mounting tension. The wardrobe choice and broadcast plug came in the aftermath of comments made by Fever guard Sophie Cunningham, who ignited a league-wide culture war last month by speaking out against biological men competing in female athletics.
&#8220;I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn&#8217;t have to go against biological men,&#8221; Cunningham told <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wnba-star-breaks-with-league-on-explosive-issue">ESPN</a> in a profile, later defying online outrage with a blunt <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sophie-cunningham-triples-down-on-haters-with-ice-cold-instagram-post">follow-up</a> on Instagram: &#8220;I said what I said.&#8221;
The two opposing figures met face-to-face at center court for a pre-game chat on Sunday. While the mid-court meeting appeared cordial, Reeve had spent Saturday taking direct aim at the rhetoric surrounding the debate.
&#8220;It is not the case that we have, quote, biological men in girls’ locker rooms, the way it’s being phrased, the innuendo there that somehow transgender women are predators of some kind in the locker room,&#8221; Reeve fired back to reporters, pushing for inclusion while claiming &#8220;exclusion is not the answer.&#8221;
The rift highlights a growing divide inside the WNBA. Cunningham’s fiery stance has drawn enthusiastic rallies of supporters outside arenas in Seattle, Portland, and Minneapolis. It has also earned her backing from high-profile figures like female sports advocate Riley Gaines and White House Press Secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/karoline-leavitt-rips-leftist-backlash-to-sophie-cunninghams-trans-sports-comments">Karoline Leavitt</a>.
However, the debate has boiled over into ugly arena confrontations. During a recent Fever road trip to Seattle, Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton was reprimanded after reportedly launching an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wnba-co-owner-accused-of-cursing-out-teen-girls-over-xx-xy-shirts?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=8&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=WNBA+Co-Owner+Accused+Of+Cursing+Out+Teen+Girls+Over+XX-XY+Shirts">expletive-laced tirade</a> against two 16-year-old female fans who were wearing gear in support of Cunningham&#8217;s position.
Meanwhile, Fever head coach Stephanie White <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sophie-cunninghams-coach-asked-where-she-stands-on-men-in-womens-sports?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=1&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Sophie+Cunningham%E2%80%99s+Coach+Asked+Where+She+Stands+On+Men+In+Women%E2%80%99s+Sports">threw up her hands</a> when asked where she stands on the issue, offering a classic corporate dodge. White claimed she wasn&#8217;t &#8220;educated enough from a scientific standpoint&#8221; to say whether biological males belong in women&#8217;s sports.
While leadership equivocates and ESPN announcers point fans toward progressive talking points, Cunningham remains steadfast in her position, proving that the hottest court in basketball right now is the culture war.

Police are investigating a suspicious overnight fire at Nöam, a kosher restaurant in Montreal&#8217;s Côte-des-Neiges–Notre-Dame-de-Grâce borough, as local leaders and community members urge authorities to treat the incident as a hate crime.
The blaze broke out around 3:15 a.m. on Saturday. While no injuries were reported, the building sustained major physical damage.

A kosher restaurant in Montreal, Canada, was burned to the ground in a suspected arson attack in the early hours of Saturday morning.

<script async src="https://platform.x.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) spokesperson Raphael Bergeron confirmed investigators possess security video showing an individual in a white T-shirt setting the fire before fleeing. Building owner Howard Szalavetz expressed heartbreak over the destruction, sharing fears that the business was intentionally targeted due to its Jewish identity. Quebec Liberal MP Anthony Housefather and Provincial Representative Elisabeth Prass both visited the site, condemning the attack and demanding a thorough hate-crime investigation, CBC <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/police-fire-kosher-restaurant-9.7293777#:~:text=(%20St%C3%A9phane%20Gr%C3%A9goire%2FRadio%2DCanada)%20Social%20Sharing.%20Police%20are,Ville%20de%20Montr%C3%A9al%20(SPVM)%20spokesperson%20Raphael%20Bergeron.">reported</a>.
The arson attack reflects a wider, escalation of hostility directed at Canada&#8217;s 400,000-strong Jewish population. Over recent months, cities including Toronto and Montreal have experienced a noticeable surge in violent incidents: A Toronto Jewish girls&#8217; school was targeted by overnight gunfire on three separate occasions; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bagels-and-bullets-antisemitic-terror-wave-hits-jewish-bakery-chain">shots were fired</a> at Kiva’s Bagel Bar in Toronto, two Montreal Jewish institutions faced firebombings, and multiple synagogues in Nova Scotia were defaced with hate-filled graffiti.
Other reported incidents include attempted abductions and the assault of a Jewish man in front of his children in Montreal.
Community advocates note that these events put 2026 on track to be one of the most violent years on record for the Canadian Jewish community.
Meanwhile, only hours after the fire, the hostility extended into professional sports during a Major League Soccer match at Stade Saputo. Israeli international forward Dor Turgeman, playing for the visiting New England Revolution against CF Montréal, was subjected to hostile chants including &#8220;Death to Israel&#8221; and &#8220;Free Palestine&#8221; from sections of the crowd throughout the game.
Turgeman answered on the field in the 36th minute, scoring to give New England a 2–0 lead. He  celebrated by running toward the stands with his arms outstretched, pointing to his ears as if to say he couldn’t hear the hostility.

Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White dropped the ball when pressed on whether biological males belong in women’s sports, offering up a classic corporate-style dodge while her own star player, Sophie Cunningham, continues to throw down pure common sense.
Asked point-blank about her personal stance on biological men competing in female athletics, White punted faster than an NFL punter on fourth-and-long.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t know that I would say that I&#8217;m educated enough from a scientific standpoint. I don&#8217;t ever believe that exclusion is an answer. I just don&#8217;t,&#8221; White hemmed and hawed, falling back on her childhood days of playing with boys because &#8220;there weren&#8217;t girls&#8217; sports.&#8221;
Pressed further on whether she would welcome a biological male onto a WNBA roster, White doubled down on the tap-dance: &#8220;Again, it&#8217;s like, I don&#8217;t know&#8230; I&#8217;m not educated enough in terms of transgender and transitioning to give you a smart answer.&#8221;

White’s soft answer on a hard-hitting issue is irritating, especially when her own locker room features one of the most outspoken defenders of women&#8217;s sports in the entire league.
At the same press conference, two other players from the team were being interviewed when they were asked about Cunningham&#8217;s comments. One of the women, Aliyah Boston, immediately shut down the questions, getting up to leave and muttering, &#8220;Have a good day.&#8221; A representative for the team interposed, &#8220;We’re going to wrap up here.&#8221;

While her coach claims she needs more &#8220;layered conversations,&#8221; Fever guard Sophie Cunningham isn&#8217;t hiding behind press-release jargon. Cunningham has spent the past several months cutting through the noise with straightforward reality checks, starting last November when she <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wnba-star-throws-cold-water-on-transgender-narrative">bluntly agreed</a> with NBA star Michael Porter Jr. that elite eighth-grade boys could likely outplay pro women.
&#8220;Men are just stronger, bigger, athletic,&#8221; Cunningham declared on her podcast. &#8220;They just are a different build. So if you put them up against females&#8230; yeah, they’re gonna win, duh.&#8221;
Fast forward to July 2026, and Cunningham hasn&#8217;t backed down an inch. In the midst of a league and players’ union heavily leaning into transgender inclusion, she <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wnba-star-breaks-with-league-on-explosive-issue">laid it all on the line</a> to ESPN, saying, &#8220;I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn&#8217;t have to go against biological men. &#8230; &#8220;I think that I am here to extend love. But I also think with that love is truth, being honest.&#8221;
Days later, refusing to cave to online critics, she <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sophie-cunningham-triples-down-on-haters-with-ice-cold-instagram-post">posted</a> a saluting emoji on Instagram with a simple warning to the mob: &#8220;I said what I said.&#8221;
Cunningham&#8217;s bold, common-sense stance earned high praise from female sports advocate Riley Gaines and even White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who slammed left-wing critics for being &#8220;out of touch&#8221; with average Americans on an &#8220;80/20 issue.&#8221;
The battleground over Cunningham’s stance turned downright ugly in late July during a Fever road trip to Seattle.
While the WNBA loves to preach about &#8220;inclusion,&#8221; Seattle Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton was caught allegedly <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wnba-co-owner-accused-of-cursing-out-teen-girls-over-xx-xy-shirts">launching</a> an expletive-laden tirade against two 16-year-old female fans sitting in the stands wearing XX-XY Athletics gear in support of Cunningham. The wild confrontation left one teenager in tears after the adult owner screamed at them and dropped bizarre religious jabs, while nearby fans turned their backs despite sitting under arena banners reading &#8220;No Hate in these United States.&#8221;
The Storm was forced to issue an apology for the owner&#8217;s unhinged behavior, which completely overshadowed the action on the hardwood.
While coach Stephanie White remains sidelined by political correctness, Cunningham keeps calling it like it is.

Sophie Cunningham’s Coach Asked Where She Stands On Men In Women’s Sports

<div>
In an astonishing video, an unborn baby girl appeared to break into a massive smile the very moment she heard her father’s voice during an ultrasound.
</div>
<div>
The soul-stirring moment occurred when the father placed his face close to the mother’s stomach and said, “Good morning, Happy Saturday. You hungry?” The baby’s immediate, joyful reaction offered a profoundly moving glimpse into the reality of human life before birth.
</div>
<div>
The video also highlights the absurdity of ignoring such undeniable evidence of life in the womb and believing that a baby in utero should be aborted. Beyond the heartwarming smile of a pre-born baby, further remarkable scientific evidence underscores the vitality and humanity of the unborn long before they enter the world.
</div>
<div>
As far back as 2018, a <a href="https://x.com/LiveAction/status/953758653705740288/video/1">video</a> of a detailed MRI scan captured a 20-week-old baby in utero actively moving around, turning her head, kicking, and displaying a clearly beating heart. Such vivid imagery demonstrates the undeniable truth of pre-born life.
</div>
<div>
Yet, despite these vivid depictions of developing human life, pro-abortion advocates and organizations like Planned Parenthood have <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-best-pro-life-video-ever-astonishing-mri-20-hank-berrien">continuously fought</a> restrictions on late-term abortions. Planned Parenthood has aggressively condemned proposed 20-week abortion bans, labeling them &#8220;dangerous&#8221; and &#8220;out-of-touch,&#8221; while groups like Physicians for Reproductive Health accused pro-life policymakers of using &#8220;deceitful tactics.&#8221;
</div>
<div>
Furthermore, pro-abortion advocates consistently oppose efforts to allow pregnant women to view ultrasounds, claiming such procedures are &#8220;medically unnecessary&#8221; and &#8220;demeaning.&#8221; But the reality is clear: one look at her baby, and any mother is liable to recognize the living human being inside her.
</div>
<div>
The evidence that life and biological vitality begin at the very start of human existence goes all the way back to the moment of creation itself. In 2016, scientists at Northwestern University <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/flash-light-occurs-moment-conception-james-barrett">made the groundbreaking discovery</a> that a breathtaking flash of light occurs at the exact moment of conception. Researchers demonstrated that when a sperm first meets an egg, a bright light radiates outward in a remarkable burst.
Study co-author Professor Teresa Woodruff noted the significance of the discovery, stating, &#8220;All of biology starts at the time of fertilization, yet we know next to nothing about the events that occur in the human.&#8221;
</div>
<div>
From the breathtaking spark of light at the exact instant of fertilization to the visible heartbeat on an MRI and a pre-born child smiling at the sound of her father&#8217;s voice, the testimony of science and imagery overwhelmingly confirms the sacred reality of life in the womb.
