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~

Trump’s $3.3t Tax Bill Faces Senate REVOLT As Renewable Cuts Trigger Backlash | Debt Panic Grows [Video]

Trump’s $3.3t Tax Bill Faces Senate REVOLT As Renewable Cuts Trigger Backlash | Debt Panic Grows

President Donald Trump’s $3.3 trillion tax and spending bill has hit turbulence in the U.S. Senate. Senate Majority Leader John Thune is racing to meet Trump’s July 4 deadline, but faces internal GOP divisions. At least eight Republican senators oppose key parts of the bill, ranging from Medicaid cuts to renewable energy credit phaseouts. Some GOP factions demand deeper spending cuts, while others seek to protect healthcare and green energy. Meanwhile, markets are watching closely as the dollar dips and renewable energy stocks slide. Senators like Thom Tillis and Rand Paul have signaled likely opposition, placing final passage in jeopardy. Trump, watching closely, has lashed out at dissenters on social media. The bill, if passed, could reshape healthcare access for millions and eliminate major green energy incentives. Final voting may happen late Monday or early Tuesday, but only if Thune can negotiate a fragile consensus. #TrumpTaxBill #USSenate #GOPSplit #RenewableEnergy #GreenTaxCuts #DebtCeiling #HealthcareCuts #TrumpNews #JohnThune #RandPaul #ThomTillis #USPolitics #SenateVote #AmericanEconomy #BudgetDeficit #MedicaidCuts #EnergyPolicy #CongressWatch #TaxReform #BreakingNews ~GR.125~HT.408~

Chile PRESIDENTIAL Face-off | COMMUNIST Jeannette Jara to take-on Trump-backed FAR-RIGHT Candidate

Communist candidate Jeannette Jara has won Chile’s leftwing primary with over 60% of the vote, setting up a high-stakes presidential showdown against far-right frontrunner José Antonio Kast—often dubbed the “Chilean Trump.” Jara, backed by a united left, vows to raise taxes on the wealthy and boost job creation, while Kast leads polls with a tough-on-crime, anti-immigration platform. The race is sharply polarized, as Jara seeks to overcome President Boric’s low approval and rally progressive forces ahead of the November election. #ChileElection #JeannetteJara #JoseAntonioKast #ChileanTrump #ChilePolitics #LeftVsRight #CommunistCandidate #FarRight #PresidentialRace #Boric #CademPoll #ChileVotes #JaraVsKast #PoliticalShowdown #LatAmPolitics #BreakingNews #SouthAmerica #Elections2025 #ToughOnCrime #TaxTheRich #ImmigrationDebate #WorkersRights #ProgressivePlatform #PolarizedPolitics #JaraVictory ~ED.420~HT.408~
