VIDEO: Texas Congressman Gill MOCKS Mamdani To 'Go Back To Third World' Over Biriyani Video

A Texas Republican Congressman, Brandon Gill, sparked outrage after making a racist remark against Indian-origin New York politician Zohran Mamdani for eating biryani with his hands. Gill reshared a video of Mamdani eating during an interview and wrote, “Civilized people in America don’t eat like this. Go back to the Third World.” The video showed Mamdani discussing taboo topics in U.S. politics while calmly eating. Ironically, Gill is married to Danielle D’Souza, daughter of Indian-American commentator Dinesh D’Souza. Social media erupted, highlighting hypocrisy and sharing photos of Trump eating with his hands. Gill has a history of racist rhetoric, recently posting two contrasting pictures of Los Angeles to argue against immigration. Mamdani, born in Uganda and raised in NYC, was explaining how his worldview on Palestine is shaped by his Third World roots. The comment by Gill has triggered a larger debate on race, culture, and what defines “American values.” #ZohranMamdani #BrandonGill #RacismInPolitics #TexasCongressman #IndianOrigin #BiryaniGate #ThirdWorld #CulturalRacism #Islamophobia #PalestinePolitics #AmericanValues #TrumpHypocrisy #RightWingRacism #EndWokeness #DineshDSouza #DanielleDSouza #UgandaToNYC #NewYorkPolitics #GOPControversy #MamdaniSpeaks ~HT.408~

Torn from Families: Trump’s ICE Raids Spark Chaos in LA as Immigrants —Even Legal Ones —Are Detained

A sweeping immigration crackdown in Southern California has triggered widespread fear and fury. Over 100 workers — including legal residents — have been detained in surprise ICE raids across LA’s fashion district and Home Depot lots. Families are now left searching for answers. Protests have erupted citywide, with demonstrators blocking highways and clashing with law enforcement. President Trump has deployed National Guard troops and Marines to the LA area, escalating tensions further. Mayor Karen Bass has condemned the raids as an intimidation tactic targeting LA’s vast immigrant community — nearly a million of whom lack legal status.

LA Riots Breaking: Mayor Bass Slams Trump’s Marine Invasion as Immigration Protests Turn Volatile

As immigration protests erupt across Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass has sharply criticized President Trump’s decision to deploy 700 U.S. Marines and thousands of National Guard troops to the city, calling it a dangerous and provocative overreach. The protests, initially sparked by federal immigration raids, have escalated into volatile confrontations, with tear gas, rubber bullets, and widespread chaos in downtown LA. Mayor Bass accused the Trump administration of turning Los Angeles into a "test case" for authoritarian crackdowns, blaming federal militarization for inciting further unrest. California Governor Gavin Newsom has also denounced the move as unconstitutional and has filed legal challenges against the deployment, arguing that it violates state sovereignty. #LARiots2025 #LosAngelesRiots #ImmigrationProtests #AntiICE #LARiotsLive #LAProtests #ICERaids #NationalGuard #TrumpRiotsResponse #KarenBass #CaliforniaRiots #MarineDeployment #ProtestFootage #DemocratsVsTrump #LARiotsExplained Also Read Violence Erupts During Durga Idol Immersion In Bahraich: One Dead, 30 Arrested As Tensions Rise :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/violence-erupts-during-durga-idol-immersion-in-bahraich-one-dead-30-arrested-as-tensions-rise-3959807.html?ref=DMDesc Karnataka Right-Wing Activist Srikanth Poojari Released From Jail :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/karnataka-right-wing-activist-srikanth-poojari-released-from-jail-3720603.html?ref=DMDesc Who Is Srikanth Poojary?
