Revealed: How unknown donors with South Asian and Middle Eastern backgrounds are spending millions funding the rise of the far-Left... as they plot to dominate midterm elections
A series of practically unknown wealthy individuals with little history of political spending have been donating millions of dollars to support far-Left candidates in the 2026 midterm elections.
Progressives have been scooping up primaries across the US over the past few months with the support of far-Left organizations such as the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), and funding from Democratic establishment and 'anti-Aipac' super PACs.
The money flowing into those races has come in large part from non-traditional donors, many of whom are of South Asian or Middle Eastern descent and work in industries such as tech and medicine.

Soldier blocks Palestinian harvest, says Jews have prior right over Arabs to everything
A soldier was filmed blocking a Palestinian olive harvest near Ramallah on Friday because, he said, “this is a Jewish state” and “Jews have a prior right over Arabs to everything in this country.”
The soldier documented in the central West Bank’s Birzeit area also said settlers were allowed to be there because those were his orders.
The IDF did not immediately comment on the incident.

Jewish supremacist parties surge in popularity among first-time Israeli voters: Poll
Israel's Jewish supremacist political parties are growing in popularity among young, first-time voters ahead of this month's Knesset elections, according to a poll published by Ynet on 9 October.
The poll sampled the opinions of 543 Israeli voters aged 18 to 22.
It found that National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir's Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power) party received the support of 8.88 percent of these voters, equivalent to 15 Knesset seats.
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich's Religious Zionism party enjoys the support of 8.09 percent of young voters, the equivalent of 14 seats.
If only young, first-time voters participated in the election, the two parties combined would win roughly 19 percent of the vote, or 29 Knesset seats.

Palestinian Forced to Demolish His Jerusalem Home as Property Destruction Tops 11,600
Israeli occupation authorities forced Palestinian resident Fadl al-Rajabi to demolish his own home in occupied East Jerusalem on Sunday, leaving seven members of his family without their house.
Al-Rajabi dismantled the 66-square-meter home in the Al-Ashqariya neighborhood of Beit Hanina after Israeli authorities ordered its demolition on the grounds that it had been built without a permit.
The house had stood since 2010.
According to local sources, al-Rajabi carried out the demolition himself to avoid the heavy fines and demolition expenses imposed on Palestinian families when Israeli municipal crews destroy their homes.
The practice leaves Palestinians facing the choice of personally destroying their homes or paying Israeli authorities substantial sums to conduct the demolition.

Over 2,000 Gazans have died awaiting medical evacuation amid Israel's continued siege
More than 2,000 Palestinians have died while waiting to be evacuated from Gaza for medical treatment since the closure of the Rafah crossing in May 2024, the territory's health ministry said on Wednesday, as Israel's siege continues to prevent thousands of critically ill patients from accessing treatment abroad.
The ministry said 2,027 patients had died while awaiting evacuation, while approximately 21,000 others urgently require treatment outside the devastated Palestinian territory.
Among those still awaiting evacuation are 5,600 children, 2,800 patients requiring cancer treatment and 194 people whose conditions are considered immediately life-threatening.

Turkish FM claims 'no troops' to fight Yemen, says Mecca pact 'defensive' only
The Mecca pact is purely defensive, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan affirmed on 8 October, amid reports that Ankara planned to deploy troops to Saudi Arabia.
Speaking at a joint news conference with visiting Hungarian Foreign Minister Anita Orban on Thursday, Fidan said Turkiye was considering defense assistance to Saudi Arabia.
However, he ruled out sending Turkish troops to fight in Yemen on Saudi Arabia's behalf under the mutual defense pact signed in July by Turkiye, Pakistan, and the Saudi Kingdom.
“This is a defense pact, not a pact of offense; Turkiye won't send troops to another country for attacking another,” he said.

Pentagon, Raytheon sign $6.3B deal to replenish US missile interceptor supply
The Pentagon inked a five-year contract with Raytheon for the steady production of ballistic missile interceptors that use force to destroy targets, rather than explosives.
The $6.3 billion contract, which provides two additional option years, will see Raytheon provide the Defense Department with a continuous supply of Standard Missile-3 Block IB interceptors manufactured primarily in Tucson, Arizona and Huntsville, Alabama.

Revealed: The councils accommodating more asylum seekers than homeless people as outrage grows after heavily pregnant homeless woman was refused emergency accommodation
Nineteen council areas are accommodating more than ten times as many asylum seekers as households of homeless people, Daily Mail analysis suggests.
The biggest disparity was in Hyndburn in Lancashire, with the latest government data showing 423 asylum seekers were being housed there, while only 14 homeless households were in temporary accommodation.
The full results of our investigation can be viewed in our interactive map, which lays bare the true situation in every council.

JAN 6 WITNESS LIED ABOUT ME TOO AND SHOULD BE PROSECUTED
On June 28th, Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, was a surprise witness in the January 6th committee hearings. Although heavily hyped as a “surprise witness” with startling “new information” much of what Cassidy said was both eagerly reported as “fact” by the mainstream media and just as quickly debunked by more objective news organizations.

NY AG Letitia James hit with bar complaint for flagrant violation in Cornell 7 case: She must recuse herself
A bar ethics complaint has been filed against New York Attorney General Letitia James for allegedly making prejudicial statements about the “Cornell 7” in the days before being appointed special prosecutor to look into criminal charges for the Ivy’s Chi Phi frat members, The Post has learned.
Two days before she was appointed special prosecutor to reopen an investigation into a 2024 alleged gang rape at Cornell University’s Chi Phi house, James posted on social media: “What this young woman has been forced to endure is horrific and unacceptable.”
“To her, and to all survivors: you’re not alone. We stand with you,” she wrote in the Sept. 28 post on X.

Developers Flee – Tax Backfire Guts LA Housing
Los Angeles taxed housing to fund housing—and credible data show it produced fewer homes, fewer jobs, and a weaker market instead.
Story HighlightsUCLA researchers link the tax to roughly 1,910 fewer new apartments each year.
City documents tie lost housing to about 16,650 full-time construction jobs gone by 2026.
Transaction activity plunged as sellers and builders avoided the levy on high-value sales.
Supporters tout over $1 billion raised for housing and tenant aid, but most funds remain unbuilt.
What Measure ULA Does And Why It MattersLos Angeles voters approved Measure ULA in 2022. The law adds a real estate transfer tax on sales above about $5.3 million to fund housing and homelessness programs. The city’s housing department says most revenue flows to an affordable housing program, plus preservation and prevention efforts. Supporters say the measure raised more than $1 billion, which they hail as a major win for tenant aid and future construction. Those dollars, however, must still turn into homes people can live in.
UCLA’s Lewis Center examined market data since the tax began in April 2023. The researchers found a sharp decline in permitting for new multifamily homes and concluded the tax is reducing annual apartment production by at least 1,910 units. Their analysis compares activity inside Los Angeles with nearby areas without the tax. The result points to a clear pattern: when the city taxes large property transfers, fewer of those deals occur, and fewer sites move forward into actual housing projects.
How Fewer Deals Became Fewer Homes And JobsDevelopers and property owners often buy and sell land, older buildings, or large parcels before bringing new housing online. When a transfer tax increases the cost of those steps, some projects stall or move to other cities. The UCLA report ties that brake to fewer new homes each year. A communication filed with the Los Angeles City Clerk estimates the missing homes translated into roughly 16,650 full-time construction jobs lost between 2023 and 2026, a major hit to working families.
This is the core trade-off. The city designed ULA to gather money from high-end sales. But high-end sales are exactly the deals that set the table for new building. When those sales slow, builders do fewer rehabs, tear-downs, and ground-up projects. The city’s own dashboard tracks disbursements and programs funded by ULA dollars, but dashboards cannot fill the gap left by stalled private activity that typically supplies most new homes. The policy taxed the engine that produces housing, then wondered why output fell.
Supporters’ Case: Big Revenue And Tenant AidBackers argue that ULA is a needed funding stream in a city with severe housing needs. They note that seventy percent of the money backs affordable housing production, rehabilitation, and preservation, while the rest supports prevention and renter protections. Advocacy materials highlight more than $1 billion raised from a small share of high-value sales, pitched as “top four percent” deals paying more to help the vulnerable. Tenant defense and rent relief programs use some of these funds to keep people housed during tough times.
Yet even supporters concede the pipeline is slow. Reporting shows most funds earmarked for construction have not yet produced completed units, with permitting and delivery delays weighing on timelines. A prominent council member acknowledged there are no completed housing units funded with ULA dollars so far and pointed at the city’s drawn-out process as a cause of lagging results. Revenue without results does not shelter families. Voters expected roofs, not reports. That mismatch fuels the growing frustration across neighborhoods and job sites.
Policy Crossroads: Reform Or Relent?City leaders have floated fixes to limit harm to new construction. Proposals include exempting new apartments, condos, commercial, and mixed-use projects from the transfer tax for a set period after they open, to reduce the penalty on building. That approach aims to protect the pipeline while keeping some revenue for aid programs. Whether reforms arrive soon enough to revive investment and permitting is the key question. Every quarter of delay risks more shelved deals and fewer paychecks for skilled trades.
For conservatives, the lesson is plain. Government cannot tax its way to prosperity, and it cannot punish the very transactions that create homes and jobs. The data show fewer apartments and lost construction work since ULA took effect. Supporters can celebrate large dollar totals, but money sitting in accounts does not cut rents or lower mortgage costs. Results matter. If Los Angeles wants housing, it must clear red tape, protect property rights, and stop kneecapping the marketplace that builds.
