The Morning Report — 7/ 21 /26

So, was it terrorism or merely tourism that was a bit too enthusiastic. I mean, really now...

A suspected anti-ICE terrorist has been taken into custody after allegedly carrying out an attack on a federal facility in Lower Manhattan, New York City. . . In a press conference following the attack, Assistant Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) James Barnacle claimed that Arrabaca was “looking to injure people and harm people“ and described the incident as an “anti-government attack,” citing materials found on Arrabaca, including a sign that read “ICE Off Our Streets.” “An FPS Protective Security Officer swiftly tackled and detained the agitator, sustaining minor injuries during the incident. Officers quickly recovered the suspect’s bag, which contained what appeared to be two pellet guns and a manifesto,” said the Department of Homeland Security in a public statement following the attack.

Wait, Arrabaca. Is that a Muslim or a coffee bean? To his credit Secretary of State Marco Rubio is leading an effort to identify and combat the threat of "Left Wing Terrorism" which although is a redundancy is indeed and remains a threat to our national security coming as it historically has done from Central and South America.

But as is illustrated by what happened in Lower Manhattan as merely the latest in a very long string of Leftist terrorist acts over not just the past few years but over the course of decades, our nation and society are in mortal danger and perhaps on the verge of being snuffed out for good unless the Left is utterly eradicated from every corner of our society especially from our schools which is where this cancer originated and from where it continues to metastasize.

The latest annual National Education Association convention, as usual, focused on the union's radical political and social agenda...The education of children in the three Rs was nowhere to be found at the convention. No one expressed concern that the latest National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) showed that reading scores are declining nationwide among fourth- and eighth-grade students. No state recorded gains in reading for either grade compared with 2022.

That the DSA and let's face it full on communism has a receptive and growing audience not just among the fringes of society but a growing number of supposedly ordinary Americans who will reflexively vote for the candidate who has the "D" after his/her name regardless of what they espouse or worse, because they have been brainwashed into believing that America, the free market and the principles that built this nation into the greatest in human history are evil failures that are making them and the rest of humanity miserable.

You and I will alternately laugh and vomit at this but the average German laughed at Adolf Hitler prior to 1934.

The Democratic Socialists of America, buoyed by a slew of recent victories, have unveiled a new platform they insist “isn’t extreme” despite calling for fully disbanding the U.S. Senate and the presidency, replacing the Supreme Court, and defunding the U.S. military.

The DSA’s “program” was drafted by elected representatives between April and June of 2026, and is titled “Workers Deserve More.” The project, once completed, was voted on and approved by the DSA’s National Political Committee (NPC).

Oh there are going to be mass graves, gentle reader. The question is whose corpses will be in them, theirs or ours?

Have a good day,

ABOVE THE FOLD, BREAKING, NOTEWORTHY
• The suspect is currently in custody, and an investigation is ongoing. The investigation is being conducted by the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force. The building houses agencies including ICE and the FBI. As such, this potentially represents another anti-ICE attack comparable to other incidents, such as the sniper ambush at the Prairieland Detention Center in Texas, a federal immigration facility.
