NPR Public Editor Forced to Admit: Important Jewish Voices Were Exluded in Synagogue Attack Coverage

Published

on

In March, The Gateway Pundit reported that a driver plowed a vehicle into Temple Israel Synagogue in West Bloomfield Township, Michigan, with more than 100 children in the building, and opened fire.

The synagogue attacker was identified as Ayman Mohamad Ghazali, a Lebanese national who first entered the U.S. in 2011 on an IR1 immigrant visa as the spouse of a U.S. citizen.

Ghazali was born in Lebanon in 1985 and entered the US in 2011. He became a naturalized US citizen in February 2016 under the Obama Administration.

Where was National Public Radio (NPR) reporter Hadeel al-Shalchi following the attack? Not at the synagogue.

Instead, two days later, al-Shalchi was 6,000 miles away in the Ghazali family’s hometown of Mashghara, Lebanon, interviewing the terrorist’s relatives for a March 14 segment touting the headline, ‘In a small Lebanese town, grief and fear follow Michigan synagogue attack.’

Journalist Batya Ungar-Sargon noted, “NPR found the real victim of an attack on 140 Jewish American babies—and it’s the Hezbollah-infested town in Lebanon that raised a family of terrorists.”

After reviewing the coverage, public editor Sarah McBride noted that she did not find NPR stories quoting rabbis, congregation members, or families of children who fled the building in the liberal outlet’s coverage.

McBride wrote:

NPR ran multiple stories on the attack.

In all of that coverage, voices from Temple Israel are absent.

I couldn’t find any stories that quote rabbis, congregation members or the families of the children who had to flee the building. This story quoted a rabbi from a nearby congregation. A story on NPR’s website linked to a Facebook post from Temple Israel declaring that all the children and staff were safe. The Detroit News attended Shabbat services the next day, which had to be held in another location.

A story like that would have been the perfect opportunity to examine to community’s response to the terrifying attack. NPR or Michigan Public Radio pulled away from the story at Temple Israel too soon.

When important voices are missing from coverage, it distorts the audience’s perception of everything else.

The biased coverage is a prime example of why President Trump signed a sweeping executive order defunding National Public Radio (NPR) and Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), which continue to be an apparatus of the Democrats’ taxpayer-funded leftist propaganda machines.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the president previously called on Congress to defund the absurdly dishonest “news” organizations following a House Oversight DOGE subcommittee hearing, which exposed the stations’ already well-known bias and radical content.

CRINGE: Kamala Harris Impersonates President Trump as a “Mob Boss” (VIDEO)

Kamala Harris speaking at the National Action Network's 35th anniversary event, addressing social justice issues while seated on a blue chair.

Kamala Harris on Friday impersonated President Trump as a “mob boss.”

Harris, Pete Buttigieg, Senator Mark Kelly, and other high-profile Democrats and possible 2028 presidential hopefuls were in New York attending the National Action Network convention.

The event is being hosted by Al Sharpton.

“Two years out, we’ll see some of the people that have been thinking of running, and they’ll see us,” Al Sharpton told Politico.

Harris signaled she may run for president again.

Al Sharpton asked Kamala Harris if she would run for president in 2028 after she got trounced by President Trump in 2024.

“Listen. I might. I’m thinking about it,” Harris said.

“Let me also say this, I served for four years being a heartbeat away from the presidency of the United States,” she said. “I know what the job is, and I know what it requires.”

Harris continued on with her word salad.

“Look, the American people have the right to expect that anyone who wants to run for office and be a leader, that it can’t be about themselves and what they want for themselves has to be about the American people,” Kamala said.

“And that’s how I think of it and I am thinking about it in the context of… who and where and how can the best job be done for the American people?” she said.

“I’ll keep you posted,” Kamala added.

Kamala Harris then impersonated Trump as a “mob boss” as she criticized his foreign policy.

“And then he, Rev, kinda acts like a mob boss. So then he’s kind of like, ‘well, you know. You take Eastern Europe and I’ll take the Western Hemisphere and then you over there, you get Asia. And we’ll just divide it up,'” she said.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Is Appealing His Criminal Conviction and Sentencing – But Panel Judges Seem Skeptical of His Argument

Diddy is appealing his conviction and sentence

Diddy is hopeful, but the judges appear unconvinced.

Around 10 months ago, disgraced hip-hop mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was sentenced to a 50-month prison sentence.

Today, his lawyers presented his plea before an Appeals court, questioning both his conviction for ‘transportation to engage in prostitution’ and his sentencing.

Reuters reported:

“A lawyer for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs said on ​Thursday judges should not be allowed to consider conduct relating to charges for which a defendant has been acquitted ‌in determining a sentence, urging an appeals court to overturn the hip-hop mogul’s conviction on prostitution charges and his prison sentence.

‘This case presents an important issue about a respect for jury verdicts and public confidence in our criminal justice system’, defense lawyer Alexandra Shapiro told the Manhattan-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals during ​arguments in an appeal by Combs of his conviction and sentence of four years and two months in prison.”

ABC News reported:

“A three-judge panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals appeared skeptical on Thursday of Sean Combs’ argument that his prison sentence should be reduced because the judge unlawfully punished Combs as if he had been found guilty of more serious crimes.”

[…] Combs is serving a four-year prison sentence, which defense attorney Alexandra Shapiro said treats him as if he had been convicted of the more serious counts. She urged the appeals court to reduce the sentence ‘to ensure that not guilty really means not guilty’.”

The appellate judges deemed it constitutional for judge Arun Subramanian to consider ‘all of Combs’ conduct in establishing a sentence’.

“’We have two women who were plied with drugs to participate in this, one of whom became an opioid addict, so doesn’t that support the reasonableness of this?’ Judge M. Miller Baker asked.”

NEW: Minnesota Children’s Hospital Snubs Trump’s Executive Order, Will Resume Sex Change Procedures on Minors

Published

on

By

A Minnesota children’s hospital plans to resume sex change procedures for minors, flying in the face of President Trump’s executive order banning the practice. 

Last January, Trump signed the “Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation” Executive Order, which restricts sex-change procedures for minors by cutting federal funding to institutions that practice the satanic procedures.

“It is the policy of the United States that it will not fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support the so-called ‘transition’ of a child from one sex to another, and it will rigorously enforce all laws that prohibit or limit these destructive and life-altering procedures,” Trump wrote in the order.

It can be recalled that former MAGA firebrand Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) led an effort to codify the President’s executive order last year, when the House passed her Protect Children’s Innocence Act.

The bill would make it a crime for sex-change surgery and hormonal treatments to be provided to minors and leave parents who allowed their child to be mutilated subject to prosecution.

However, the RINO-controlled Senate, led by Leader John Thune (R-SD), did not even vote on the bill.

Now, states are flaunting Trump’s executive order after a federal judge ruled in favor of 21 blue states that sued the Trump Administration.

United States District Court for the District of Oregon Judge Mustafa Kasubhai ruled that the executive branch lacked the authority to unilaterally implement a ban on so-called gender affirming care for minors due to a lack of Congressional action.

Per MPR New:

Children’s Minnesota announced Monday that it has resumed all services in its Gender Health program, some of which had been temporarily paused on Feb. 27.

The decision follows a federal court ruling in March that overturned a previous attempt to restrict gender-affirming care. This ruling, resulting from a lawsuit filed by Minnesota and a coalition of states, blocks the Trump administration from limiting access to such care.

“Offering science- and research-based health care to transgender and gender diverse youth is part of Children’s Minnesota’s vision of being every family’s essential partner in raising healthier children,” a spokesperson for the hospital said in a statement.

In February, Children’s Minnesota announced the temporary pause on prescribing puberty-suppressing medications and pubertal hormones to patients under the age of 18 in its Gender Health Program for Children. This pause was a reaction to federal actions targeting pediatric health systems that provide such care.

A spokesperson for the hospital previously said that this was not the decision Children’s Minnesota wanted to make, but it felt necessary to protect both its providers and the hospital itself.

This comes amid a lawsuit from the Trump Administration against Minnesota alleging sex-based discrimination for allowing boys to compete in girls’ sports and use girls’ locker rooms and bathrooms.
