🚨 MEDIA BLACKOUT: A Ukrainian refugee fled Putin’s war, to be stabbed to death on a U.S. train by a repeat criminal repeatedly freed by Democrat policies.

The media buried it. The Left excused it.

Here’s how soft-on-crime Democrats caused the murder of Iryna Zarutska

🧵👇 Image
2/ Iryna Zarutska, 23, survived the Russian invasion—only to be killed on Aug 22 in Charlotte, NC.

Her murderer? Decarlos Brown Jr., a homeless man arrested & released 14 times for violent crimes.

Her story? Ignored for 17 days by CNN, NYT, WaPo, NBC, ABC, Reuters. Image
3/ Democrat Leaders Show “Compassion”… for the Killer

Charlotte’s Democrat Mayor Vi Lyles said:
“We will never arrest our way out of issues such as homelessness and mental health.”

Not a word for Zarutska.

This is what soft-on-crime “compassion” looks like: dead innocents. Image
4/ Wikipedia editors tried to DELETE her page, claiming “not notable.”

Axios mocked “MAGA influencers” for even raising the issue.

@glennhreynolds nailed it:

“Rabble-rousing is press power. But rabble-snoozing—keeping stories hidden—is far bigger.” Image
@glennhreynolds 5/ When George Floyd died, wall-to-wall coverage. And cities burned.

When Iryna Zarutska, a white refugee, was murdered by a black repeat offender? Silence.

The same weekend, a beloved Auburn professor was hacked to death with a machete. National media barely touched it. Image
@glennhreynolds 6/ Don't be a woman anywhere Democrats control!

Trump: “For far too long, Americans have been forced to put up with Democrat-run cities that set loose savage, bloodthirsty criminals to prey on innocent people.”

Catch-and-release policies killed Iryna. And not just her. Image
@glennhreynolds 7/ Charlotte by the Numbers:

• Crime index: 46 incidents per 1,000 residents
• Violent crime rate: 1 in 134 chance of victimization
• Last Republican mayor? 2009

16 years of Democrat rule → skyrocketing crime, few if any consequences. Image
@glennhreynolds 8/ Even @piersmorgan & @elonmusk blasted the blackout. Musk called it a hate crime.

He's right.

Meanwhile, legacy outlets delayed for weeks, then buried it under “context.”

This isn’t journalism. It’s narrative control. Image
Image
@glennhreynolds @piersmorgan @elonmusk 9/ ⚠️ The Bottom Line

• Iryna Zarutska’s blood is on the hands of Democrats who endlessly free violent criminals.
• The Enemedia helped cover it up.
• And the Left wants YOU silenced for even noticing.

America deserves leaders who defend the innocent, not excuse the guilty. Image

🚨 ISRAEL'S QATAR STRIKE WAS LONG OVERDUE

For years, Hamas leaders lived like billionaires in Doha hotels while orchestrating terror against Israeli civilians.

Israel finally struck their headquarters in Qatar — and it should have happened years ago.

THREAD 🧵👇 Image
2/ The Safe Haven Scam

Imagine Mexico hosting Al Qaeda leaders in luxury Cancun resorts in 2002.

That’s exactly what Qatar did for Hamas. Five-star hotels. Billions in stolen aid. Command centers for war crimes.

All while sending their foolish followers to their deaths.Image
3/ The targets were evil:

• Khaled Meshaal: Hamas founder, net worth $5B
• Khalil al-Hayya: Bragged about rape & murder
• Zaher Jabarin: Hamas CFO
• Nizar Awadallah: Mastermind of civilian attacks
• Khaled Mashal: Pledged to “repeat Oct 7 until Israel is annihilated.” Image

🚨 KAMALA’S REVISIONIST HISTORY 🚨

Kamala Harris just dropped an excerpt from her new book 107 Days — and it’s pure blame-shifting, denial, and gaslighting.

She throws Biden under the bus. She blames staff. She rewrites history.

Let’s break it down 🧵👇 Image
2/ Kamala Admits Biden’s Decline… Then Denies It

Harris writes there were “months of growing panic” over Biden’s cognitive state before the June debate meltdown.

But then? She insists: “It wasn’t incapacity.”

Wait, what?! Image
3/ Harris Says Biden Shouldn’t Have Decided Alone

On Biden’s decision to drop out:

“Was it grace, or was it recklessness? … It should have been more than a personal decision.”

Translation: She's throwing her boss under the bus while taking her shot at his job. Image

🚨 ICYMI: Trump’s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Commission just dropped its report on America’s CHILDREN’S HEALTH.

Yeah, it's kind of a big deal. But you'd be excused for missing it with all that's gone on the last 48 hrs.

Five key takeaways every parent needs to know 🧵👇 Image
2/ Improving Kids' Food 🍎🥩🥛

• USDA food guidelines to be rewritten to prioritize REAL food: full-fat dairy, fruits, vegetables, meats
• FDA to phase out petroleum-based food dyes
• Infant formula testing for heavy metals
• Crackdown on marketing of junk food to kids Image
3/ Real Science Instead of "Trust the Science" 🔬

NIH will tackle BIG questions:

• Why is autism skyrocketing?
• What’s driving childhood diabetes?
• How do antidepressants impact kids long-term?
• What about vaccine injuries?

Gold-standard research, not corporate spin. Image

🚨 MASSIVE ICE OPERATION: 822 criminal aliens arrested in Houston in just ONE WEEK.

Child predators. Gang members. Repeat offenders. Even a 12-time deported felon.

This is what Biden’s open borders unleashed—and what Trump’s America First policies are cleaning up. 🧵👇 Image
2/ Between Aug 17–23, ICE swept through SE Texas:

🔴 822 criminal aliens arrested
🔴 5 transnational gang members
🔴 7 child predators
🔴 3 convicted murderers
🔴 112 re-entry felons

This was a surgical strike on the “worst of the worst.” But it turned up a LOT. Image
3/ These weren’t “dreamers.”

📌 Jorge Torres-Soto (Guatemala): child predator
📌 Manuel Estrada (Mexico): 3x deported, child predator
📌 Lloyd Hwehwe (Zimbabwe): murderer
📌 William Amaya (El Salvador): 3x child sex convictions
📌 Alejandro Miramontes (Mexico): 12x deported, robbery & burglaryImage

🚨 BREAKING: Mexico just slapped 50% tariffs on Chinese cars 🚨

This isn’t just about protecting jobs in Mexico — it’s about joining the U.S. in shutting the backdoor China was trying to use to flood North America with cheap vehicles.

Here’s why this matters 👇🧵 Image
2/ The move: Mexico’s economy ministry announced tariffs up to 50% on Chinese cars (currently 20%).

Also hit: steel (35%), toys, motorcycles, and textiles (10–50%).

In total: $52 BILLION in imports affected.

All before resuming trade talks with the U.S. Image
3/ Why now? Mexico admits Chinese cars were being dumped “below reference prices,” threatening 325,000 jobs.

Minister Marcelo Ebrard: “Without a certain level of protection, you almost can’t compete.” Image

🚨 HUGE WIN in Michigan 🚨

A judge just threw out all charges against the 15 GOP alternate electors from 2020 — saying they truly believed they were acting lawfully.

The “fake electors” narrative? Collapsing.

Here’s what really happened 👇🧵 Image
2/ The ruling:

Judge Kristen Simmons dismissed 8 counts of fraud & forgery against each defendant.

Why? Because intent matters in law — and the GOP electors clearly believed they were following precedent, not committing fraud.Image
3/ The judge’s mic drop:

Simmons: “I don’t know of anybody doing a press conference after they’ve committed a fraud.”

The electors announced their plan publicly. Zero secrecy. Zero cover-up.

And they had history on their side. Image
