The Week In Woke

Via Instapundit:

The Bulwark, the most conservative and pro-America website on the planet, endorses the open antisemite Muslim Brotherhood supporter Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed and calls opposition to him "racist."

Stephen L. Miller @redsteeze

So just in case you're following along, the mostly public face of The Bulwark is endorsing a Muslim Britherhood adjacent proven Anti-Semite. Ok, sure but that's not even the best part of this.

He's claiming that the opposing candidate will usher in internment camps, which would be a really uncomfortable fact, if his coworker and podcast partner had not floated someone with an actual Nazi internment camp guard symbol on his chest for President in 2028 prior to that candidate dropping out.

AHOY!

It's racist to oppose this.

El-Sayed courted Muslim centers where clerics portrayed U.S as Satan, sought 'revenge' on Zionists

Newly surfaced recordings show the Democratic candidate courting votes at tax-exempt Islamic centers, where clergy and Islamic scholars called America the "House of [Satan]," asked Allah to support the fight against Israel, and prayed for vengeance against Zionists and their backers.

Why are you making a big deal about that you Racists?

Michigan Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed directly solicited support for his campaign inside Islamic centers whose imams and guest speakers called America the "the House of Shaitan [Satan]" and urged Allah to "take the worst revenge upon" Zionists, according to a review of their videotaped services.

Experts said the video evidence, first uncovered by the Middle East Forum and verified by Just the News, could open the door to potential investigations into the nonprofit status of places of worship and provide a stark reminder to voters in the final days of the 2026 election about El-Sayed's ties to other controversial activists, who include Hasan Piker.

El-Sayed is locked in a close contest with former Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Mich., for Michigan's open Senate seat. The contest is expected to be one of the most competitive of the cycle.

Throughout the contest, El-Sayed has taken flak for his ties to Piker, a prominent Twitch streamer who has said America "deserved" 9/11, among other sensational statements. President Donald Trump has called El-Sayed a "terrorist sympathizer."

The El-Sayed campaign did not respond to a request for comment from Just the News, and has denied his familial relationships to the Muslim Brotherhood and to radical Islam in general, with supporters such as former President Obama calling the issue "Islamophobic."

In March before the Democratic primary, El-Sayed visited the Islamic Center of Detroit, a nonprofit organization that offers both Muslim religious services and engages in charity work in the community.

El-Sayed was welcomed to the pulpit by one of the mosque's leaders during a Ramadan prayer service, during which he solicited signatures from the congregation so that he could qualify for the Michigan Democratic primary, according to a recording reviewed by Just the News.

The host introduced El-Sayed as "our beloved brother Dr. Abdulrahman," using his full first name, and El-Sayed spoke to the room in a livestreamed meeting and asked the congregation for their support.

Meeting ended with call for God to take "revenge" upon the Zionists

"I have to get on the ballot to be able to get your vote, inshallah [God willing]. So my team is here in the back. You'll see us on the outside [...] If you're a registered voter in the state of Michigan, we need your signature to get on the ballot, so I ask that you'll give us a signature," El-Sayed told the congregation. "Please don't leave here without doing that."

Later in the same Ramadan livestream, a leader reads the closing supplication in Arabic, which called for God to take "revenge" upon the Zionists and to foil their plans. It is not clear whether El-Sayed was still in attendance when this closing prayer was sung.

"O our Lord, the Zionists have spread corruption in the land. Your forbearance has deceived them, so show them Your power, O Compeller. They killed our brothers and sisters, so take the worst revenge upon them," the leader sang, according to the video.

"Lie in wait for them, our Lord. Raise no banner for them in the lands of the Muslims [...] and foil their plans in every time and place," he continued.

The Arabic language prayer was translated independently by the Middle East Forum and confirmed by Just the News using Google's translation application.

The Islamic Center of Detroit did not respond to a message submitted to its online contact portal.

The left has destroyed education and their next target is all of society.

🚨WHAT ON EARTH?!!

A Nashville TEACHER OF THE YEAR walked away from her career because she says the district ORDERED HER TO FABRICATE A STUDENT'S GRADE.

She refused, so they went into the system and CHANGED IT THEMSELVES.

According to the teacher, a student didn't finish a project so Hardcastle (the teacher) gave the grade the student earned... a failing grade.

Then a parent came in and SAT IN THE OFFICE FOR HOURS until that grade changed.

Three administrators huddled up and decided the AWARD-WINNING TEACHER was the problem.

She still refused to change the grade.

So they overrode her and changed it ANYWAY.

She quit in May and put all of it in a three-page resignation letter. It's public. Read it yourself. She calls it GRADE FABRICATION.

The leftwing Groomer Media is very, very sad that it turns out the spike in "queer identification" was a social contagion all along, just like the Bigots said, and are coping over reduced teen identification as LGBTQ.

Are Fewer Teens Identifying as Gay or Bisexual? It's Complicated.

New data have prompted questions about changes in teens' sexual orientations. But researchers disagree on how much the numbers can really tell us.

When they say the answer to a question they want to answer "no" to is "complicated," they mean "yes" but are too cowardly to say it.

Some of the most notable changes between generations have involved gender and sexuality, where there has been a steady increase in young people identifying as L.G.B.T. over the decades. But as culture and attitudes evolve over time, Dr. Twenge has wondered if that trajectory will hold.

Her analysis of new federal numbers on youth and sexual identity suggests there may be a change: In a recent post on her Substack, Generation Tech, Dr. Twenge argued that lesbian, gay and bisexual identification was in a "free fall" among high schoolers, with the clearest declines among ninth-grade girls. After peaking at 26 percent in 2021, the percentage of ninth-grade girls identifying as bisexual dropped to 13 percent in 2025.

Did the social contagion burn itself out resulting in the number of "queer" identifying youth falling by half?

Who knows, it's "complicated."

So now she's going to argue against the findings:

The change caught her eye, Dr. Twenge said, because "pretty much every other indicator for a very long time was going in the direction of more same-sex relationships, more acceptance of same-sex relationships, more identification."

...

"It's a reversal of very longstanding trends," Dr. Twenge said.

No it's not, it's a reversal of a very suspect spike in young people -- in particular, young girls who have historically been the most susceptible to social pressure and social contagions -- suddenly deciding in 2015 that they were "queer."

Anything but straight. Straight is normal and normal is boring. Yuch!

This explosion in "gay" youth is ten years old. This is not a "longstanding trend," unless you're ten years old.

...

Dr. Twenge's analysis immediately prompted speculation about the forces driving the change.

Conservative commentators argued the nation's rightward swing had swayed young people, suggesting that the prior rise in L.G.B.T. identities had been a product of progressive institutions promoting them. "Amazing what happens when you cut the Department of Education and USAID," Terry Schilling, the director of the American Principles Project, posted on X.

Others argued that the findings reflected an increasingly hostile climate for L.G.B.T. people in the United States, making teenagers afraid to disclose their sexual identities, especially in surveys conducted by the federal government.

LOL. Cope harder.

Meanwhile, the longstanding trend of increasing acceptance of the gay lifestyle also reversed, which I'm sure has nothing to do with progressives brainwashing young girls into being "queer" or "trans."

U.S. Support for LGBTQ+ Issues Remains Down From Peak

by Jeffrey M. Jones

Story Highlights

* Support for legal same-sex marriage down six points from 2022-2023 high
* 62% viewing gay/lesbian relations as moral is lowest since 2016
* Perceived morality of changing one's gender down eight points since 2021

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- After two decades of rising support for LGBTQ+ issues, U.S. attitudes have plateaued and begun to slide back modestly. Approval of same-sex marriage, moral acceptance of gay and lesbian relations, and endorsement of gender changes are all down from peaks reached in the early 2020s.

While most Americans still favor legal same-sex marriages, the 65% who do so today is down six percentage points from the peak in 2022 and 2023. Similarly, the percentage viewing gay or lesbian relations as morally acceptable, 62%, has not been lower since 2016. And the share of Americans who consider changing one's gender morally acceptable has declined eight points over the past five years, to 38%.

These items are from Gallup's annual Values and Beliefs survey, conducted May 1-17, 2026.

Between 1996 and 2022, the percentage of U.S. adults in favor of legalizing same-sex marriage increased by 44 points, from 27% to 71%. In 2024, the figure dipped to 69%, and it has shown a marginal decline each year since.

Gallup first asked about the morality of same-sex relations in 2001, when 40% said they were morally acceptable. By 2022, 71% held that view, before a sharp drop to 64% in 2023, holding at about that level during the past three years.

When Gallup first asked about changing one's gender in 2021, 46% found it morally acceptable, and 51% found it morally wrong. Today, those numbers stand at 38% and 57%, respectively.

Most of the recent changes in LGBTQ+ attitudes have occurred among Republicans. For example, in 2021 and 2022, 55% of Republicans said they favored legal same-sex marriage, but today, the figure is 37%. Among independents, support has dropped six points, to 67%, while Democrats' views are the same as in 2022 (87% in favor).

Partisans' views on the morality of gay or lesbian relations have shifted similarly. Since 2022, the high point for Republicans, the share who say such relations are morally acceptable has fallen 21 points to 35%, compared with an eight-point decline among independents to 64% and no meaningful change among Democrats (now at 81%).

As a result of the recent decline, Republicans' views of the morality of same-sex relations are now similar to what they were between 2005 and 2014.

Well, Republicans were willing -- eager, even -- to leave gays alone. But the Gay Movement did not return the favor, not even close.

So here we are now.

They want war.

EXCLUSIVE: 'Decolonize Palestine' organizer for Michigan Dem William Lawrence claims Charlie Kirk 'got what he f*cking got'

"Charlie Kirk incited a lot of violence and he encouraged a lot of violence. And sometimes you get what you f*cking get."

A field organizer for Democratic Socialist of America-aligned (DSA) candidate William Lawrence in Michigan--despite saying that it was "bad" that Charlie Kirk was assassinated--justified the shooting, claiming that Kirk "incited a lot of violence, and sometimes you get what you f*cking get." Lawrence is running in Michigan's 7th Congressional District and has billed himself as an average progressive.

...

"So it's like, my parents, like when I talk to them about it, it's like, 'Well violence is not good. We shouldn't be allowing it.' I'm like yes, but the violence happens. It happens. Sorry it happens. This is a world full of f*cking violence and Charlie Kirk incited a lot of violence and he encouraged a lot of violence. And sometimes you get what you f*cking get."

Remember when they claimed the Joker movie would spur the right into embracing psychotic nihilistic violence? The left is quoting the line Joker says before executing a man on television: "You get what you fucking deserve."

Horrifying. I want to smack this smug murder-loving asshole and I hope someone else feels the same.

You think political violence is cute, funny, and justified? Well maybe one day you'll be in a position to test that theory.

She tries to hide her identity, claiming she is known as "Baby Pamper," but internet autists say they've identified her. Apparently she's a foreigner who was "naturalized" by that great American Liberal Assimilation Engine that's banging on all 12 cylinders.

Thanks to stateless for that.
