In a fiery political escalation, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took direct aim at Zohran Mamdani â the presumptive Democratic frontrunner in the New York City mayoral race â accusing him of embodying âradicalâ left-wing ideals. Labeling Democrats as âdoubling down on craziness,â Leavitt claimed Mamdani's policies threaten the âvery fabric of the country.â
The attack reflects growing Republican unease with Mamdaniâs rising influence, particularly after his viral interview clip showed him eating biryani with his hands while championing Third World-inspired politics. With his open support for Palestine, socialism, and progressive reform, Mamdani has drawn praise and vitriol in equal measure. As Trumpâs White House attempts to frame the 2025 elections as a choice between order and chaos, Mamdani is emerging as a lightning rod in the cultural and political battlefield. The clash signals a deeper national confrontation brewing around race, identity, and radicalism.

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, âCivilized people in America donât eat like this. Go back to the Third World.â
The video showed Mamdani discussing taboo topics in U.S. politics while calmly eating. Ironically, Gill is married to Danielle DâSouza, daughter of Indian-American commentator Dinesh DâSouza. 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 âAmerican values.â

Tensions exploded in Kafr Malik, West Bank, as dozens of Israeli settlers stormed the town, torching property and clashing with locals. Israeli forces responded to the chaos, fatally shooting three Palestinians and wounding seven more. The Israeli army claims Palestinians opened fire, while Palestinian authorities call the killings unjustified. A separate army raid in Al-Yamun killed a young boy. International outrage is mounting, with Palestinian leaders warning of regional escalation and urging urgent intervention to protect civilians from settler violence and Israeli military force.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has launched a scathing attack on French President Emmanuel Macron and German opposition leader Friedrich Merz, accusing them of attempting to revive Europe's imperialist past. Speaking at a diplomatic event, Lavrov warned that Western leaders were reverting to their âformer instinctsâ of conquest and domination, drawing chilling comparisons between todayâs political climate and Nazi-era atrocities.
He further stated that âGerman and Ukrainian Nazis are united by their attitudes toward those they want to enslave,â claiming that just as some âburned Jews,â others now âburn Russians.â Lavrovâs remarks come amid intensifying tensions between Moscow and the West over the war in Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing European militarization.
The inflammatory comments are expected to draw condemnation from European capitals but are in line with Russiaâs narrative of positioning itself as a bulwark against Western hegemony and what it calls modern-day fascism.

Assassinations, Jihad Attacks On U.S. Officials â Including Trump, Vance, Rubio, Hegseth And Their Families - Elon Musk And His Companies, U.S. Military, Microsoft, And Targeting Jews In America And Europe: 'There Are No Red Lines.' Al-Awlaki urged Muslims to revive the "tradition of assassinations," describing it as the "greatest form of Jihad today." He said the targets should be the "leaders of apostasy," whom he labeled "Jewish Arabs," specifically naming the leaders of Egypt, Jordan, and the Gulf states.
He appealed directly to military personnel in Arab countries, calling on them to take action. He said Arab pilots should strike "the Jews," U.S. military bases in the region, and American aircraft carriers. At the very least, he said, they should attack the palaces of Arab leaders, describing these as the "initial steps" that must be taken.
Al-Awlaki claimed there are 4.5 million Muslims in the United States and said that they should carry out acts of retaliation without hesitation, stating: "Do not consult anyone about killing infidel Americans." Speaking over images of Manhattan skyscrapers, he said that the list of targets should be "effective," and declared: "There are no red lines."

Iran has condemned a âprovocativeâ IAEA resolution backed by the U.S., France, the UK, and Germany, escalating nuclear tensions. Tehran insists its uranium enrichment is for peaceful purposes, warning of a "firm response" if pressured further. Amid five rounds of indirect U.S.-Iran talks in Oman, Tehran is preparing a counterproposal, rejecting the current U.S. offer for lacking sanctions relief. As Western allies push for a halt, Iran stands firm, with Supreme Leader Khamenei calling enrichment rights ânonnegotiable.â The next round of talks is set for June 15 in Muscat.

As Iran prepares to present a nuclear proposal to the U.S., Israeli military plans for a potential unilateral strike are nearly complete. Reports suggest Israel is moving munitions and reviewing final scenarios, while diplomatic efforts falter. A call between Trump and Netanyahu triggered emergency security meetings, highlighting deepening mistrust of Iranâs intentions. Israeli officials fear Tehran wonât abandon enrichment, while the U.S. seeks full denuclearization. With Iran weakened by sanctions and regional proxies losing ground, Israeli urgency growsâthough U.S. officials warn that a strike could ignite a broader regional conflict.

Columbia University witnessed fresh unrest as pro-Palestinian protesters occupied Butler Library, prompting the university to summon the NYPD. Several demonstrators were arrested for trespassing after ignoring dispersal warnings. Tensions soared after the Trump administration pulled $400M in funding over antisemitism claims and began visa reviews of protesters. Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed efforts to deport international demonstrators. Critics say the administration is using immigration and anti-terror laws to silence student dissent. Columbia leadership condemned the unrest, calling it a disruption of academic order.
