‘Sick’: Jewish group slams Mamdani over Chanukah video

 (July 6, 2025 / JNS)

A Jewish advocacy organization has strongly criticized New York City mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani—a Democratic socialist and current state assemblyman—after he shared a video the group says disrespects Chanukah and Jewish traditions.

StopAntisemitism took to X to criticize Mamdani for sharing a video last year that featured Indian performers dressed as Jewish characters engaging in Chanukah rituals such as spinning dreidels and lighting a menorah. The group condemned the clip as “sick,” arguing that Jewish holidays and religious practices should not be used as material for humor.

Venezuela, Home to Some of World’s Most Atrocious Political Prisons, Complains ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ Is Racist

 Venezuelan Interior Minister and wanted drug lord Diosdado Cabello claimed on Wednesday that the illegal migrant detention center at Dade-Collier Training and Transition Airport, commonly known as “Alligator Alcatraz,” is a “concentration camp” and evidence of the United States’ “racism and supremacism.”

Cabello, who leads the Venezuelan socialist regime’s repressive apparatus and is wanted by U.S. authorities on multiple narco-terrorism charges, levied his accusations during the latest broadcast of his weekly socialist show Hitting with the Mallet. According to Cabello, who condemned the facility as a “concentration camp,” the purported objective of the detention center is to “wipe out people who do not share the same line of thinking as the fascist extremists,” asserting that “there are no human rights in the United States.”

Christian nurse fights NHS over discipline for opposing trans breastfeeding workshops

 

Men who take Domperidone to 'lactate' can cause heart problems for babies who drink it

A Christian nurse in the United Kingdom has secured legal representation after facing disciplinary action for objecting to “Queer Birth Club” workshops at NHS maternity services that touts trans breastfeeding and claims it's not just women who give birth.

The nurse, who has remained anonymous, is being defended by the London-based nonprofit Christian Legal Centre (CLC), according to a press release earlier this week from Christian Concern.

The Queer Birth Club, which was founded by a woman named AJ Silver who identifies as a man who has given birth, touts itself as “the UK’s first LGBTQ+ Competency workshop for those working in the maternity or perinatal sector.”

The organization claims to have provided workshops to NHS trusts, universities, doula training schools, “hypnobirthing” schools, lactation consultants and private companies. Silver, who has spoken at the Royal College of Midwives, also penned a book titled Supporting Queer Birth, which touches on issues such as lactation for trans-identifying individuals.

​​“Our vision is that birth and parenthood is improved for all who birth and parent. Adding and amplifying voices of the overlooked and often invisible minorities in the birthing world,” the organization says, adding that they “want every health care professional and birth worker to feel able, competent and excited to support families that exist outside the world’s cis-heteronormality.”

The nurse being represented by CLC is raising questions regarding the Queer Birth Club workshops in light of the U.K. Supreme Court's ruling in April that the terms "woman" and "sex" in the country's Equality Act 2010 refer to a biological woman and biological sex.

“The content of these sessions undermines established clinical standards and introduces extreme ideological beliefs that have no place in healthcare settings,” the nurse said in a statement.

Of particular concern is the Queer Birth Club's promotion of drug-induced lactation in men who take Domperidone, which presents potential dangers to the hearts of the children who drink it, according to the drug manufacturer Janssen, according to The Telegraph. The club, which offers a “LGBTQ+ Competency in Lactation” course, has dismissed such concerns as “transmisogyny.”

Arizona Cult leader Indicted for Failing to Report Multiple Claims of Child Sex Abuse

 An Arizona pastor has been indicted in connection with failing to report two cases of child sex abuse that occurred years ago. Isaac Noriega, 82, allegedly learned that two children were abused by members within his congregation but did not inform authorities.

Noriega serves as the lead pastor of Golden Dawn Tabernacle Church in Tucson, Arizona. He was charged earlier this month with two counts of false reports of child abuse, one a felony count and one a misdemeanor.

Noriega’s charges follow the April arrest of Jose Mora, a congregant at the church. Mora faces three counts of sexual conduct with a minor under 15 and five counts of molestation of a child, court records report. The alleged abuses occurred between 2009 and 2012.

Both Mora and Noriega’s arrests stem from a year-long investigation into the church by the Arizona Daily Star and Lee Enterprises Public Service that was published in November 2024.

According to the investigation, Noriega admitted that he knew or brushed aside at least one instance of alleged sexual abuse by congregants, including Mora. Noriega did not report any of the abuse claims to the police.

Australia Cancels Hitler worshipping Sambo Kanye West Visa over ‘Heil Hitler’ Song

 (AFP) – Australia has cancelled US rapper Kanye West’s visa over his song glorifying Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, the government said Wednesday.

The 48-year-old musician, who has legally changed his name to Ye, released “Heil Hitler” on May 8, the 80th anniversary of the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II.

West — whose wife Bianca Censori is Australian — has been coming to Australia for some time because he has family in the country, Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke said.

“He’s made a lot of offensive comments. But my officials looked at it again once he released the ‘Heil Hitler’ song and he no longer has a valid visa in Australia.”

Burke said the rapper’s cancelled visa was not intended for holding concerts.

“It was a lower level, and the officials still looked at the law and said: You’re going to have a song and promote that sort of Nazism — we don’t need that in Australia,” he told public broadcaster ABC.
