Michigan Police On High Alert After “Racist” WSJ Op-Ed Piece Calls Dearborn “America’s Jihad Capital”
Dearborn, Michigan, Mayor Abdullah Hammoud took to social media platform X on Saturday afternoon to warn “Effective immediately” that “Dearborn police will ramp up its presence across all places of worship and major infrastructure points.”
Hammoud said the reason behind police officers increasing their presence across places of worship and major infrastructure points followed a Wall Street Journal opinion piece calling Dearborn “America’s Jihad Capital.”

This is a direct result of the inflammatory @WSJ opinion piece that has led to an alarming increase in bigoted and Islamophobic rhetoric online…
Here’s an excerpt from the op-ed that alleged thousands in the city support the Hamas militant group:
What’s happening in Dearborn isn’t simply a political problem for Democrats. It’s potentially a national-security issue affecting all Americans. Counterterrorism agencies at all levels should pay close attention.
Mayor Hammoud released a statement:
“In response to an Islamaphobic, Anti-Arab, and blatantly racist opinion piece published by the Wall Street Journal today, we have increased the presence of law enforcement throughout Dearborn.
“Dearborn Police continue to monitor social media for threats. This is more than irresponsible journalism. Publishing such inflammatory writing puts our residents at increased risk for harm.”
X user Andy Ngô responded to the mayor’s tweet, pointing out, “You do have an Islamic extremism problem in your city, and that’s part of the reason you were elected. You deny the problem exists so that the Islamists can continue to organize.”

Is the FBI still targeting Roman Catholics because they’re considered “at risk of committing acts of extremist violence“?

Trump Doubles Down on Mass Deportation Plans
Donald Trump has praised former US President Dwight D. Eisenhower for his mass deportation of illegal immigrants in the 1950s, insisting again that he will deploy similar tactics if reelected this year.
Eisenhower was “very strong on deportation,” Trump told Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo in an interview aired on Sunday. The former US leader’s military-style expulsion campaign in the summer of 1953 affected as many as 1.3 million people, making the program the largest of its kind in American history. Trump is seeking to surpass Eisenhower if elected president in November.
“He dropped them [immigrants] very close to the border, and they came back. Then he dropped them 2,000 miles away, and they didn’t come back,” Trump said, describing the Eisenhower administration’s tactics.
The Eisenhower-era ‘Operation Wetback’ was intended to address public discontent with foreign workers, predominantly Mexican nationals, who had moved to the US in large numbers a decade earlier in response to a labor shortage caused by the World War II military draft. The name derived from a disparaging term for illegal Mexican workers employed by US farm owners in border states.
The estimate of 1.3 million deportees was the upper figure provided by US officials, although historians have disputed its accuracy. The actual number may have been be closer to 300,000, studies have suggested. Nevertheless, the campaign was accused of being unnecessarily cruel and sometimes fatal for expelled workers, who were hauled out of the country in crammed buses, boats, and planes.
Playing on anti-immigrant sentiment helped lead Trump to electoral success in 2016, and the Republican frontrunner has made the issue part of his current bid for a return to the White House.
In his interview with Fox, Trump claimed Latin American governments were “sending people … that they don’t want” across the US border. He also alleged that China was encouraging the crossings, predicting that this would result in a “terrorist attack, 100%.”
The former US leader also commented on the high-profile incident in New York last month, in which a group of migrants was filmed attacking police officers in Times Square while one of them was being arrested. The assault caused a nationwide uproar, with politicians on both sides of the political aisle calling for the perpetrators to be deported.
Trump condemned the attack and suggested that the crime rate in New York City, which he linked to the border situation, could cause its traditionally Democratic constituents to turn Republican.
“The people of New York are angry. People that would have never voted for me because I’m a Republican,” Trump said. “I think they’re going to vote for me. So I think we’re going to give New York a heavy shot.”

El Salvador’s Bukele Claims Victory in Presidential Election With Over 85% of Votes
Incumbent Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele claimed to have won the presidential election in El Salvador with more than 85% of the votes on Sunday.
“According to our figure, we won the presidential election with over 85% of the vote and won at least 58 of the 60 seats in the [Legislative] Assembly. The record in the entire democratic history of the world. See you at 9 p.m. in front of the National Palace. God bless El Salvador,” Bukele said on X (formerly Twitter).
Earlier on Sunday, the exit poll conducted by the CID Gallup research company showed that Bukele was leading in the election with 87% of the votes, and his party, Nuevas Ideas, was taking 54 of the 60 seats in the country’s parliament.
The margin of error of these results should be no more than 3%.

Germany Fears NATO Won’t Survive Trump – NYT
There is growing concern among the German leadership that NATO will not survive if Republican frontrunner Donald Trump is reelected as US president, the New York Times has claimed.
Addressing his supporters in Las Vegas last month, Trump stated that the US is “paying for NATO, and we don’t get so much out of it,” adding that “if we ever needed their help, let’s say we were attacked, I don’t believe they’d be there.” The former leader has repeatedly accused Washington’s NATO allies of failing to pull their weight, and proclaimed in 2017 that the military bloc was “obsolete.”
Trump remains comfortably in the lead for the Republican presidential nomination ahead of November’s vote, with numerous contenders having dropped out of the race.
In its article on Saturday, the NYT claimed that senior German officials fear there are significant doubts whether NATO could survive a second Trump term.
Unofficial deliberations reportedly taking place in Berlin and other European capitals, reportedly focused on a potential disintegration of the bloc, mark an “astounding reversal of thinking” compared to the talk of a “new unity” following the start of Russia’s military campaign against Ukraine in February 2022, the newspaper added.
“Their immediate concern is growing pessimism that the United States will continue to fund Ukraine’s struggle,” the NYT reported, referring to a months-long stalemate in Congress over President Joe Biden’s latest $60 billion proposed package for Kiev.
Republicans have made the unblocking of further defense aid to Ukraine and Israel contingent on the administration agreeing to tighten controls on the US-Mexican border to stem the flow of migrants.
Citing anonymous sources, the NYT reported in December that EU diplomats and representatives of several think tanks had been “making pilgrimages to associates of Mr. Trump” to inquire whether he was planning to pull the US out of NATO.
Earlier that month, Mark Esper, who served as US defense secretary under Trump from July 2019 to November 2020, told MSNBC that if reelected, his former boss “would withdraw support for Ukraine.”
“His next move would be to begin pulling us out of NATO, certainly troops out of NATO countries,” the former Pentagon chief claimed. Esper warned that such a scenario “could cause the collapse of the alliance.”
