Its better to shit in the sink than to sink in the shit.

Now let that shit sink in.

Thank you.

Why wouldn't you eat halal meat? If you're Christian, why not support a business that sells it? These are the ridiculous comments I get when I say I'll never eat it. It’s not just about being Catholic and refusing meat blessed in the name of Allah.

My issue is the transparency of the process. In the slaughterhouse, animals are slit at the throat to bleed out and suffer, which many view as less ethical than Western methods. Furthermore, all workers touching the meat must be Muslim, and facilities often convert entirely to halal to meet certification standards.

Is this just informed food choice, or part of a larger dominance narrative? I won’t support a restaurant solely selling halal, but what about grocery stores? Let’s talk about what the certification actually says versus what Canadian regulations require. ☕

Tom Wong is running for Hayward Mayor and is checking in from a key location in the city: T4U in downtown B Street (1033 B Street).

He’s inviting residents to come join him, meet the candidates, and see exactly what they do for Hayward.

If you’ve been waiting for a direct look at the local political scene, this is your sign to show up and see the action for yourself.

Pay close attention to what is happening. NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani is asking Americans to look to Islam and the Prophet Muhammad to support mass migration.

“I consider my own faith, Islam, a religion built upon a narrative of migration. The story of the Hijrah reminds us that Prophet Muhammad was a stranger too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in Medina. Surah An-Nahl, 16:41, tells us: ‘As for those who immigrated in the cause of Allah after being persecuted, we will surely bless them with a good home in this world.’ Faith offers us the moral compass to stand alongside the stranger. Government can provide the resources. Let us create a new expectation of City Hall.”

Non-Muslims are not allowed in Mecca, but let's go on. Is this a religious concept tied to Sharia law? American values come from the Judeo-Christian tradition, yet Sharia law turns faith into government. When faith starts driving government, it isn't just an academic debate. It's history. We've seen this across the Middle East: once power is taken in the name of religion, it's not handed back. They conquer, and they're not giving it back. We're seeing versions of this in Europe as well. Americans should pay very close attention to what Mamdani is saying.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer faced a barrage of accusations as protesters accused him of doing absolutely nothing while billions face the climate crisis. The crowd called him a spineless shill who rolled over for authoritarianism and allowed the destruction of democracy.

'There's some AI money for you. No, that's all you care about.'

Protesters pointed to his daughter's lobbying firm for OpenAI and his approval of fracked gas pipelines for a measly couple hundred thousand dollars. 'Jack Schumer sold the world,' one heckler shouted. They argued that while the country faces a fascist takeover, Schumer has been busy perfecting the goosestep, smirking at galas sponsored by Amazon.

• Rolling over for authoritarianism
• Lobbying for OpenAI
• Funding from BlackRock and AIPAC

'We need actual leaders,' the crowd demanded, questioning what has to be done to get him to fight back.
