NEW: Over the weekend, I was arrested for allegedly jaywalking on Las Vegas Blvd. Yes, jaywalking.
I was covering the 'No Kings' protest for Frontlines TPUSA. It was a chaotic scene as far-left activists started heckling Christians and other TPAction volunteers.
As I was recording on the sidewalk, I stepped off for a few seconds to avoid bumping into others.
That's when cops moved in and claimed I was violating the law. 🧵👇
I spent more than 12 hours in jail with a DUI suspect, accused wife beater, and a homeless drug addict. They made me strip down and change into an orange jumpsuit. I'm now facing a misdemeanor. First time in my life.
Two other elderly men were arrested for a similar offense. We were all released Sunday morning and must face a judge next month. As you can tell, they are both MAGA supporters and deny the allegations.
#EXCLUSIVE: An Eastside mother was brutally assaulted Monday morning by a mob of Issaquah High School students during an anti-ICE classroom walkout.
She says it was totally unprovoked and the cops just watched it all go down without intervening.
This victim fears retaliation so she didn't want me to use her name for this interview.
But this mom is speaking out now to warn parents and school leaders about the massive safety risks around these unsanctioned pop-up protests. 🧵👇

Last week a Seattle middle school student fell into a lake during an anti-ICE classroom walkout.
#BREAKING: Parents say a 12-year-old Hamilton International Middle School student fell into the water during an anti-ICE protest.
This incident happened Thursday afternoon in Seattle along W. Green Lake Way N. near the Aqua Theater.
Authorities say the boy struggled to make it out of the water but was eventually taken away on a stretcher.
Unclear if any teachers or parents were present during this classroom walkout.
Once again, student safety has been compromised for the sake of activism.
@SeaPubSchools has some explaining to do. 🧵👇🏽
Here is the narrative from Seattle Fire.
Students ended the protest and are now heading back to the school.
NEW: Bellevue parents better wake up. A communist group is trying to infiltrate several public high schools in WA and is now mobilizing students for a direct action against ICE officers.
None of this is student led or organic. 🧵👇🏽
According to social media posts, a group called Puget Sound Revolutionary Youth is the mastermind behind this Eastside social unrest.
These far-left activists are trying to indoctrinate the next generation with commie propaganda.
NEW: University of Washington Professor Ann Ishimaru is leading the charge against ICE raids in her Seattle neighborhood. The woke educator wants other parents to join her cause and it appears she's organizing on Signal chat groups. 🧵👇
@UW|@EROSeattle|@DHSgov
Ishimaru is getting the word out through the Hamilton International Middle School Parents Facebook page.
This Seattle public school is in the Wallingford neighborhood.
According to her post, she got activated after recent reports of ICE agents near schools.
The UW professor says there are "whistle kit parties, trainings, and plans."
NEW: Seattle Mayor-elect Katie Wilson(@wilsonformayor) has an Islam problem on her hands. Or if you ask the Muslims, she has an LGBTQ+ crisis in her city.
Egypt and Iran are blasting the so called "Pride Match" next year when the FIFA World Cup comes to Lumen Field. 🧵👇
Mehdi Taj, the president of the Iran Football Federation: “Both Egypt and we have objected, because this is an unreasonable and illogical move that essentially signals support for a particular group, and we must definitely address this point.”
Iran and Egypt argue that the Pride event contradicts their cultural and religious values. Both countries criminalize gay relationships and in Iran it is punishable by the death penalty.
In some instances, they throw homosexuals off rooftops.
