The June 25 New York Democratic Party primary will pit Westchester County Executive George Latimer who was endorsed by numerous fire fighting organizations, against Rep. Jamaal Bowman, who was censured by a bipartisan Congress for pulling a fire alarm, thereby putting thousands of lives at risk.
Bowman has also called to “Defund the Police” and mocked the rape of Jewish women in Israel on the streets of White Plains. Had anyone in a non-elected governmental position conducted themselves in such a dangerous manner, they would have been fired from their job.
Former Member of Congress, Mondaire Jones, came out against incumbent Rep. Jamaal Bowman in New York’s 16th District. Jones used to represent much of the district of lower Westchester in 2020, before redistricting changed the contours of NY’s congressional district and Jones opted to run in lower Manhattan, where he lost in the primary in 2022.
Many people have come out against Jamaal Bowman, a fiery far-left extremist who claims to be causing “good trouble” when he calls for “defunding the police”, “abolishing ICE” (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement), demanding $14 trillion of “reparations” for Black Americans, and ending U.S. support for the only Jewish State. What makes the Jones’ criticism of Bowman special is that it is coming from a Black progressive member of congress who used to represent many of Bowman’s constituents.

According to Jewish Insider, “Jones said he’s had conversations ‘all the time’ with Jewish residents in the district who are ‘horrified by his [Bowman’s] words and actions — it gives them anxiety. And it has contributed to the fearfulness that American Jews are feeling in this very heightened climate of increased hostility towards the Jewish community and Israel.’ [Jones added] ‘I will always stand up for my Jewish constituents. It’s just critically important we rebuke the extremists that some would have take over the Democratic Party.'”
Members of the extremist far-left “Squad” were appalled by Jones’ actions and comments that he is endorsing Westchester County Executive George Latimer, a White, 70-year old man for the position.
According to Semafor, Rep. Summer Lee, (D-PA) called the endorsement “incredibly disappointing.” Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) said “It’s disgusting. Here we have a former CPC [Congressional Progressive Caucus] and CBC [Congressional Black Caucus] member who’s endorsing against both a Progressive and Black man who was the first Black man in his seat.”
Lee and Bush are essentially parrots of Bowman in Congress, voting in the same manner nearly every time, as do AOC (D-NY) and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA).
The extreme left “Squad” essentially vote as a unified block, with 98-99% overlap. Chart above compares Bowman’s voting record against other progressives and New York Republicans for comparison. Data for 2023-4 118th Congress according to ProPublica.com
Almost all of the Westchester Democratic establishment has endorsed Latimer over the incumbent Bowman due to the latter’s vitriol and embarrassing actions. Now fellow Black progressives are turning on the censured Bowman in the homestretch towards the Democratic primary scheduled for June 25.
As Mondaire Jones said about Bowman, it is “critically important we rebuke the extremists that some would have take over the Democratic Party.” Bowman will hopefully be the first but not last to fall.
Amid the current wave of Jew-hatred in the United States, there have been few incidents of violent attacks and murder thus far. But the vitriol from the socialist-jihadi alliance is still gathering steam as it tries to cement the foundation of the dehumanization of Jews by isolating and de-normalizing interactions with “Zionists.”

In her sentencing, British Judge Bobbie Cheema-Grubb said (34:50):
“Those who genuinely seek refuge in this country will embrace the values we hold dear. These values include respect for the value of each person as an individual with freedom to choose their political opinions without intimidation, and whether to observe a particular faith without fear or oppression. These moral and ethical principles are based on the Judeo-Christian foundation of our social structures. Not all ideas are of equal quality or integrity, but religious and political freedom is something that generations have fought for.
“Given my findings of fact, the murder of Terrence Carney and the attempted murder of Javid Nouri were attempted to subvert those values and to lead our government to pursue a particular course concerning the situation in Palestine by force and fear rather than through democratic means. This means that those offenses were of extreme gravity, even within the context of murder.”
The judge sentenced the jihadi murderer to 45 years in prison because the context for the killing went beyond the particular crime, and was executed to undermine core Western principles of freedom for political opinions and to practice faith without fear or intimidation. People must work within democratic norms to influence governmental action, and not via “force and fear.”
In the United States, formerly “elite” university presidents failed to comprehend such notion. They said before a congressional committee about antisemitism on college campuses, that calling for the genocide of Jews may or may not go against university code of conduct depending on “context.” For the university presidents, “context” depends on whether a call to annihilate Jews is voiced generally, or directed at specific Jews, as if Jews would not be intimidated or fearful by mobs chanting for their annihilation amongst themselves.
People are free to hate; there is no law that jihadists must love Jews or vice versa. However, there are established laws regarding harassing, intimidating and discriminating against people for their beliefs. And it is precisely those laws which are being ignored by law enforcement today as it relates to targeting Jews, as universities cave to the pressure of the mob.
Some Jews are being held as hostages in terrorist tunnels of Gaza as pawns for the political-terrorist group Hamas to barter with the Jewish State to release terrorists. In the Jewish diaspora, the jihadi-socialist alliance is encircling Jews to force administrations and governments to abandon support for Israel and dismantle the Judeo-Christian foundations of their societies.
It’s a jihadi barter: ransoming Jews and Judeo-Christian values for short-term calm. All know it is a matter of “extreme gravity,” yet many leaders feel compelled to tender their values and their Jews, and to let the future address the malignancy.
Planned Parenthood is an organization that focuses on women’s access to medical treatments for matters related to reproduction such as birth control, sexually transmitted diseases and abortion. It also focuses on issues related to female bodily autonomy, so discusses and advocates about rape and sexual assault.
It is therefore horrifying that the organization has given an endorsement to Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY16) when he loudly, publicly, and deliberately mocked the rape of Israeli women as a matter of “propaganda” and “lies.”
Planned Parenthood 2024 endorsements in New York
Bowman’s challenger in the June 25 Democratic primary, Westchester County Executive George Latimer, has a long history of protecting women’s rights, including fighting rape. Why would Planned Parenthood ignore Latimer and actively endorse Bowman, who chants that Jewish women cannot be believed when they are raped?

It is quite a bit of vile hypocrisy to watch the same “progressives” who denounced the alt-right marching “peacefully” in Virginia shouting “Jews will not replace us!”, defend woke and jihadi antisemites on college campuses.
The New York group Decolonize This Place, called to “globalize the intifada,” to come for all diaspora Jews.
They shouted in Times Square, “There is only one solution: intifada revolution!” while Palestinian Arab terrorists were still in Israel killing civilians. To cheers.
Anti-Zionists in New York City calling for the destruction of Israel as news of the massacre emerged
Not to be outdone, the Democratic Socialists of America’s “Anti-Zionist Resolution” was greeted with tremendous support by jihadi groups like the Palestinian Youth Movement which penned a letter “Do not allow Zionism to be normalized within your organization. We urge the DSA to truly demonstrate its commitments to revolutionary internationalism by upholding anti-Zionism.”
Extending the theme, people from the American Muslims for Palestine call for the destruction of both the “Zionist entity” and the United States as evil “imperial projects.”
Since the shouts to kill Jews were only using megaphones, the far-left argue that the chants were “peaceful” even though the rallying call is for the annihilation of a beleaguered minority-minority.
Hitler’s modern disciples are echoing his vile remarks from one hundred years ago when he took the stage at the Hofbrauhaus beer hall in Munich in a call to strip Jews of power, privilege and rights and distribute them to the working class. It laid the very foundation of the Holocaust of the Jews in Europe. Today’s “peaceful protesters” are calling for an encore.
The “peaceful protesters” crave a revolution to dismantle capitalism, and destroy Israel and the United States, coincidentally home to 95% of global Jewry between the two countries.
Shouting “fire” in a crowded theater is a criminal offense for causing imminent harm, while cross-burnings on Black property is illegal for causing intimidation and creating “a pervasive fear in victims that they are a target of violence.” How is shouting “kill the Jews” not condemned clearly and instead marketed as “peaceful protests” by far-left politicians like Rep. Jamaal Bowman?
U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) shared some disturbing findings on May 21, 2024, that a “$50 million grant was awarded from the EPA through the Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) to “Climate Justice Alliance,” a group that engages in pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, and anti-Semitic activities.”
Sen. Capito was not exaggerating. All over the CJA website are calls to defund Israel, the greenest country in the Middle East. Israel:
burns less fossil fuels than the other countries in the region
was the first to have a wind farm in the region
was the first to have a permanent bike sharing program
surpasses even the European Union in recycling plastic
was one of only two countries in the world to have more trees entering the 21st century than it did at the start of the 20th century, due to an extensive forestation program
brought the world drip irrigation, feeding millions of people in Africa
No matter. CJA leads its website – for an organization that is supposed to handle climate issues in minority neighborhoods in the United States – with a call to “Free Palestine.”
Home page of Climate Justice Alliance
The site has an article with video which sought to tie environmental matters in poor US towns with an “anti-colonial framework” and the “liberation of Palestine.”
In addition to the disgraceful pushing of anti-Israel rhetoric, the CJA funnels money specifically designated for the American environment to left-wing pro-Hamas organizations. The CJA is literally stealing money under the banner of “climate justice” for minorities in America, and pushing destroy Israel propaganda. The group takes the $50 million award and funnels it “to help allies in other movements,” as published on their site.
One of them is the Movement Generation out of Oakland, CA. In the immediate aftermath of the October 7 brutal massacre of 1,200 people and taking 240 hostages, the group posted that it “honors unconditionally, Palestinian’s right to decolonization and self determination.” It posts to Instagram a commitment to resist Zionism as long as it exists.
Other member groups posted much of the same in the following days, calling for an eradication of Israel and its replacement with a new state of Palestine.
Far-left groups are taking tax-payer dollars meant to help the US environment and repurposing it for a genocidal war against America’s ally, Israel. It’s not just robbing from every American tax-payer and supporting a terrorist group, but depriving impacted communities from actually getting the environmental assistance they need.
Socialists have bound their cause with radical Islamists in an effort to broadly redistribute wealth and power from “White” and “Western” governments and people to the “global South.” The two revolutionary movements have bonded over the Jewish State as their first target for annihilation.
PART 1: It’s Not Yours
Socialists: The socialist approach to the Western world as it relates to internal matters is that the working class built the infrastructure of society but realize much less of the benefits. The “systemic racism” in America unfairly benefits White men and marginalizes people of color and women. Socialists argue that the wealth and power of the “patriarchy” is essentially reaped from stealing the labor of working people. This is more true externally, where the “West” colonized lands inhabited by Black and Brown people.
Islamic Jihadists: Islamic radicals have advanced alternative history that Jews never lived in Israel or had holy temples there. They see Zionism as a venture of Europeans who both wanted to shed the continent of scheming Jews and plant a colonialist flag in the heart of the Islamic world. They believe that Zionism is inherently built on racism and xenophobia, advancing a notion of “Jewish supremacy” to ethnically cleanse the holy land of the actual indigenous Arab population.
Both movements begin with a premise that the “successful” West and Jewish State are projects of theft and racism from poor Black and Brown people. Those minorities have a rightful claim to the property which is in the hands of the wealthy and powerful usurpers.
PART 2: You Cannot Defend Yourselves
Socialists: The far-left has promoted the idea that White people should “check their privilege.” This is a polite way of saying that when minority groups come to take the elites’ money and power, the rich should quietly accept it as a rightful redistribution of ill-taken goods. As New York City Mayor Bill De Blasio once said “there is plenty of money, it’s just in the wrong hands,” and socialists are the best arbiters of playing Robin Hood to take from the “wrong hands” of the rich and hand it out to the “right” working class people.
Islamic Jihadists: Islamic extremists know the wrong hands that hold onto the holy land: the Jews, as clearly articulated in the Hamas foundational charter. The Arabs fought many wars, including 1948, 1967, 1973, and several “intifadas” up to the present day, all without dislodging Jews from the land that they believe exclusively belongs to Arabs. Having lost the wars, Muslims demand surrender. People like Nihad Awad, the head of CAIR, declare that Israel, “as the Occupying power,” has no right to self-defense. The Jewish State must accept terrorism as the price for existence – until it no longer exists.
The insidious internal activities started with taking over local school boards to re-educate people in this new vocabulary with word like “intersectionality” and “anti-racist.” They moved the talking points from fringe periodicals into the mainstream media. The newly-trained zealot minions began electing officials to local and national government who then drafted new laws to cement the takeover of capitalism and meritocracy.
Jews are a vulnerable minority-minority, in countries and on the global stage. The Socialist-jihadi alliance knows that it can torment Jews, the “little Satan” as the leaders of Iran call Israel, much easier than the “Great Satan” of the United States. But the goals are the same: confiscate wealth and power from those perceived as “illegal” holders of such privilege and property, and hand it to those whom the woke/jihadi cabal determine are more deserving.
Gamestop is a publicly-traded company with very poor prospects. Technology has changed the way people buy and play games, and retail stores are hurting all over the United States. The company has swapped management, closed stores and let people go but the business continues to flounder.
But not its stock price. As covered in the movie Dumb Money, masses of people decided to wage a war against professional capitalists and kept pushing the stock higher. Ignoring all fundamental principles, the trading horde opted for another capitalist principle, that things are worth what people are willing to pay for them. Enough of them bound together to run the stock and push professional stock traders to capitulation.

People are protesting on college campuses and the streets to protect Hamas from the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). Masses have willfully opted to ignore basic morality in the face of heinous barbarism committed by the group which has promised to repeat its barbarity.
Like “Hello Kitty” who directs the masses to buy a meme stock, the Iranian tools of CAIR, Democratic Socialists of America, Students for Justice in Palestine and others, rally mobs to shut their blind moral eyes, and side with an antisemitic death cult.
They have turned the game on itself using its own rules. Capitalism both believes in fundamental values as well as market pricing, just as western society values liberalism as well as free speech and assembly. In the frenetic broadcast social media world, clicks and retweets are empowering the latter to overwhelm normalcy.
Passions are no longer tethered to truth and decency. And this is BEFORE artificial intelligence (AI) gets mainstreamed which will usher a future in which people will be unable to differentiate the real from the manufactured.
We are entering a very dangerous state for mankind, in which bots, AI and the masses actually have the power to tear down society without conventional weapons. Depravity coupled with technology will breed anarchy, particularly in societies where trust has been trashed, as many have been in the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The current axis of evil – China-Russia-Iran – are using anarchists on these shores to launch an insidious revolution, and our society just scrolls through X in bewilderment, rather than take actions to protect our values and our country.
In a world where facts are extraneous, we are only left with a clash of emotions.
Will we pass judgment solely on which party seems the most sympathetic because they feel the most injured? Does that foretell a future of balms for the pain, rather than solutions for the problems?
We are carrying our emotions across the threshold to deflower our intelligence. That is a marriage that will end poorly for civilization.
Anne Frank was a young teenager living in Amsterdam when the Nazis invaded Holland. She went into hiding in an attic with her family, fearful of genocidal maniacs who roamed the streets. For a few years, she kept a personal diary of her thoughts and how she and her family were living in hiding, before ultimately being discovered and sent to their deaths. Her diary has become an important document read by people around the world about a disgraceful period in human history which began with hatred, lawlessness and fear, and ultimately genocide.
People today – especially young people – live their lives online. With postings on Instagram, X/Twitter, TikTok and Facebook, people share their thoughts and activities with friends and strangers.
So when hate and lawlessness come for Jewish youth in the United States today, anyone around the world can see and read the testimony. The brave came to congress to testify about their classmates calling for the genocide of Jews. The unbowed sued their universities for not providing a safe environment. The fighters came onto the public stage and recounted the scourge of antisemitism they experience going to classes.
But they are few. Most young Jews are trying to just experience high school and college. They let teachers’ snide comments about “Jewish baby killers” go by, lest they lose a grade. They don’t report their mezuzahs being torn down at their dorm, pretending they fell on their own. They hide in rooms and skip events and parties with peers who have revealed themselves to be Jew haters.
Some young and older Jews have quietly lobbied for change at schools and local governments. Others have opted for a less forward approach such as writing blogs.
This blog, First One Through, started ten years ago in May 2014 as the Obama Administration was failing to secure a peace deal between Israel and the Palestinian Authority as well as failing to end the Iranian nuclear program. It focused on the terrible media coverage, particularly of The New York Times, in excusing and ignoring any horrible action by the Democratic administration and Islamists, while sparing no vicious ink on the Jewish State.
Over time, the posts captured the media’s antisemitic bias, which included deliberately obfuscating the direct connection between anti-Zionism and antisemitism. It described America’s priorities in fighting racism while ignoring growing Jew hatred. It detailed the moral rot of the United Nations and America’s leading universities.
Over 1,500 articles by a single author over the decade.
While the Shoah Foundation has collected important testimonies of thousands of Holocaust survivors about their recollections of World War II, they are colored by history and age. Anne Frank’s diary gives us something unique: a vision of a world gone mad in real-time, without the perfect hindsight of how the story played out.
We are witnessing Anne Frank in students’ public testimonies and blogs penned by those who prefer the written word. It is imperative to heed their warnings and to take actions to help them and mass of Jewish students in hiding.
