[FoxNews] DHS called the alleged attacker, Bairon Posada-Hernandez, a 'serial criminal' with 15 prior charges; feds urge New York not to release him
An 83-year-old veteran who was allegedly shoved onto subway tracks in New York City by an illegal immigrant with a long criminal history has died from his injuries, the Department of Homeland Security said Thursday.
Richard Williams, a retired Air Force pilot, died March 17 after he and another man were allegedly pushed onto the tracks at the Lexington Avenue-63rd Station days earlier.
The alleged attacker, Honduran national Bairon Posada-Hernandez, 34, was arrested March 10 and faces a murder charge.
John Pena, 30, the other man allegedly pushed onto the tracks, helped pull Williams back onto the platform moments before a train rolled into the station, the New York Post reported.
After the attack, Williams was taken to a hospital, where doctors said he suffered a brain bleed and underwent surgery. He had no brain activity after the procedure, doctors said.
Williams' death has been ruled a homicide.
"I want him to go to the Venezuela prison, the worst place he could go to," his daughter, Debbie Williams, previously told the newspaper. "I want him to suffer for the rest of his life. Prison justice would be appropriate."
She said her father had recently won a five-year battle with prostate cancer six months ago.
Hernandez's public defender, Mitchell Schuman, declined ot comment on the charges against his client.
"We have yet to see the indictment, concluded our investigation or reviewed the expected voluminous discovery materials," he said.
Posada-Hernandez, whom the Department of Homeland Security called a "serial criminal," has been deported from the United States four times, the agency said.
"Bairon Posada-Hernandez is a serial criminal and four-time deported illegal alien from Honduras who should never have been able to walk our streets and harm innocent Americans," said Deputy Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis.
Federal authorities are asking New York not to release Posada-Hernandez back onto the streets. New York has adopted sanctuary policies limiting cooperation between local and federal authorities.
U.S. Immigration and Custioms Enforcement has lodged a detainer for Posada-Hernandez. Fox News Digital has reached out to Mayor Zohran Mamdani's office and the New York Public Defenders office.
Posada-Hernandez's criminal history includes 15 prior charges, including simple assault, domestic violence, obstruction of police, possession of a weapon, drug possession and aggravated assault.
He first entered the country Jan. 2, 2008, and has been deported four different times, most recently in 2020. It was unclear when he reentered the U.S. for a fifth time, DHS said.
Surprisingly not, at this stage, really War on Terror. Read on, dear Reader, to discover this next mess that we’ll need to clean up, here at home, once the first round priorities are cleared away. From two weeks ago.
[PJMedia] It seemed to be a simple, albeit particularly bloody, road rage incident. A man was stopped at a red light in Taylorsville, Utah, waiting for the light to change so that he could make a right turn. The driver behind him got impatient and started leaning on his horn. The driver in front still couldn’t move, however, as pedestrians were crossing the street in front of his car. And that’s when things got really ugly.
Once the road was clear and the cars started moving again, the driver in front "made a hand gesture" (gee, what could it have been?) "toward the other driver," according to Salt Lake City’s KSL. Then he turned into the parking lot of a liquor store.
The driver who had been honking, enraged, pulled into the same lot. As the first driver was walking into the liquor store, the second driver pulled out a gun and started firing, hitting the man who had stopped too long at a red light in the arm and back.
The first driver "ran into the liquor store" as the second driver pursued him, "actively firing his gun." The shooter seemed particularly intent on killing his target: he "didn’t stop shooting until an off-duty Utah Highway Patrol trooper already in the store fired back." The victim "suffered gunshot wounds to his arm, back and right leg, the charges state. Seven bullet casings were recovered by police."
It’s weird enough that someone would shoot someone else at least seven times for the crime of stopping at a red light while pedestrians crossed and then flipping him off for honking, but the story gets much, much weirder. The shooter’s name is Tyler Traveon Mhaka. KSL reports that "’during the investigation, detectives learned that the defendant is a documented Taliban ...Arabic for students... gang member and had just returned from Dubai. Additionally, it’s believed that the defendant has family ties in the Middle East,’ the charges state. The Salt Lake District Attorney’s Office clarified on Friday that the gang Mhaka allegedly belongs to is local, and he was not a member of the murderous Moslem organization in Afghanistan."
A Taliban member. In Taylorsville, Utah.
Note that KSL calls the Taliban a "gang." The Taliban, which is well known to the world, is actually a designated terrorist organization, according to the U.S. State Department, as well as the ruling government of Afghanistan. But we're told that that's not the Taliban to which Mhaka belongs. Apparently there is a gang of some kind in the Taylorsville, Utah area that calls itself the Taliban. According to Salt Lake City’s ABC4, Tyler Traveon Mhaka is "also known as Taliban Tiny."
The Utah Taliban is apparently not a gang of jihadis, but a gang of criminals who emulate and admire jihadis. And there is apparently at least one other such gang in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,. ABC 4 explains that "the Taliban Gang is not associated with the terrorist organization known as the Taliban. According to the Salt Lake County District Attorney’s Office, there is a local gang in Utah called the Taliban Gang. There is also a Taliban Gang based in California that is not associated with Mhaka or the Utah gang, according to the FBI."
One X user in Utah stated: "How did the ’Taliban gang’ come to be in Utah? You may have been under the impression that the Taliban was the global terrorist network that runs Afghanistan. Well, you see, back in 2021 when Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Too old and senile to be prosecuted, not too old and senile to set national policy... decided to lose the War on Terror and cede Afghanistan to the tender predation of the Taliban gang, Utah Governor Spencer Cox wrote a letter to President Biden asking for as many Afghan refugees as they could manage to send us. And they did."
That may well be the case, but "Tyler Traveon Mhaka" is not an Afghan name; rather, it most often denotes a Zim-bob-wean origin, and so suggests that the problem here may indeed be mass migration, but not solely migration from Afghanistan. What seems to be happening is that migrants colonists have streamed into the U.S. with virtually no vetting, and once here, have found ways to express their hatred and contempt for the country that welcomed them and gave them refuge. One way to do that, at least in Utah, seems to have been to form a gang with a name that is designed to strike fear in the hearts of Americans, and to signal that the gang members are their enemies.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A pedophile who murdered a 13-year-old girl after getting her pregnant has died in prison in an apparent suicide, officials said.
Jarvis Butts, 43, was found dead in his cell at the Charles Egeler Reception and Guidance Center in Jackson, Michigan on Wednesday.
He was just two weeks into a 35 to 60 year sentence for the murder of Na'Ziyah Harris.
Prison staff said they 'provided life-saving measures which were unsuccessful' and noted that state police are investigating Butts's death as a suicide.
He pleaded guilty to murdering Harris in January 2024 after impregnating her and prosecutors said he targeted the young girl after previously having children with her aunt.
Butts was also sentenced to ten to fifteen years for sexually assaulting other children.
Prosecutors said Butts groomed Harris for two years before murdering her, finding that he often sent her sexually explicit texts and grew close to her family.
In the weeks before the murder, Butts searched online for abortions and abortion pills.
Harris was last seen on the morning of January 9, 2024, getting off a bus in Detroit.
Prosecutors said they uncovered text messages showing she met up with Butts on the day she disappeared.
'He was a classic and expert groomer and pedophile,' Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said when he was charged.
In September 2023, Harris allegedly text Butts to inform him she had missed her period and by November 2023 'the evidence shows Butts knows that she is pregnant.'
Worthy said: 'His phone records show that he searches online about abortions, abortion pills and drinking red anti-freeze.'
The prosecutor also accused Butts of targeting and befriending women with intent to have sexual contact with their young daughters in a sickening campaign of abuse.
As part of the investigation, police reportedly tracked Butts' movements to the Rouge River in Detroit the day after Harris disappeared.
Police later recovered the clothes Harris was last seen wearing from the area.
Harris's body has never been found, but as part of Butts' plea deal he was required to provide details about the location of her remains.
Worthy said after he pleaded guilty, 'one of the most important aspects of the plea agreement was giving Na’Ziyah’s family some semblance of closure. The disclosure of the location of her body was crucial.'
Following his arrest for Harris's murder, he was additionally charged with sexually assaulting a number of other young girls aged under 13.
One of the victims, now 20, was abused between April 2012 and April 2014, Worthy said.
The second victim was abused between July 2015 and July 2017, prosecutors said.
The charges come after Butts was convicted for sexually assaulting two young girls in 2005.

Not really, Mike.
It was a common occurrence prior to the 1960's for jailers to inform the jail population that a r*pist or child pr*dator was due into the facility.
Sometimes the new inmate lasted a day, sometimes not.

"...died in prison in an apparent suicide, officials said."
Hummmmm!
Where have I heard that before?
My hats off to whom ever helped him go to Hell quickly. It has saved the taxpayers likely $$ millions used over the next 35+years. Or until the next perverted liberal Democrat Coup took office and pardoned him.
[Breitbart] More than 1.1 million unborn babies were killed in abortions last year, and mail-order abortions also increased — especially in states with pro-life laws, according to a new report.
The pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute released a report this week showing an estimated 1,126,000 abortions in 2025, up slightly from 1,124,000 in 2024. The study does not include abortions provided outside of brick-and-mortar clinics and telehealth, such as international clinics and websites, meaning that the findings are “an underestimate of the total number of abortions nationally,” Guttmacher noted.
The slight increase is in part due to telehealth abortions increasing within 13 states that currently restrict abortion throughout pregnancy. The study found that the total number of telehealth abortions increased from 72,000 in 2024 to 91,000 in 2025.
At the same time, the number of women crossing state lines for abortions fell to 142,000 last year, down from 154,000 in 2024 and 170,000 in 2023, in the wake of the Supreme Court’s 2022 ruling overturning the constitutional “right” to abortion invented under the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision.
“It makes sense that we’d see a decline in travel. Because people accessing abortion care through telehealth in general then no longer need to travel for care. So it’s not surprising, per se, but it is the first time that we’ve been able to put out specific numbers showing this shift,” Guttmacher data scientist Isaac Maddow-Zimet told The Hill.
In 2023, Guttmacher estimated that medication abortions accounted for 63 percent of all abortions within the formal U.S. healthcare system. That percentage was up from an estimated 53 percent in 2020 and 39 percent in 2017. That report also did not account for abortion pills obtained through underground national and international networks, including those that send pills to women in states with abortion restrictions.
The booming mail-order abortion industry was largely enabled by the Biden administration’s FDA, which removed the in-person dispensing requirement for abortion pills in 2021 and allowed them to be sent via mail. That action, combined with shield laws in blue states, has allowed abortionists to mail abortion pills into red states that have laws protecting the unborn.
Republicans have demanded the FDA under President Donald Trump revoke the Biden regime’s mail-order abortion scheme, which it has yet to do. GOP lawmakers and pro-life advocates have also pressured the FDA to accelerate its safety review of mifepristone, the first drug used in a two-drug medication abortion regimen, after a shocking study released last April suggested a higher complication rate than previously reported.
As far as in-person abortions, some red states like Idaho and Tennessee have passed “abortion trafficking laws” to disincentivize adults from facilitating abortions for minors in blue states. Even so, states like Democrat-run Illinois have seen an overwhelming number of women from out of state looking to have their babies aborted.
In Illinois, 32,000 abortions were performed on out-of-state residents, “accounting for almost a quarter of the 142,000 people nationwide who traveled across state lines for care [sic] in 2025,” according to the report.
In North Carolina, at least 18,000 abortions were performed on women traveling from out of state, a shift which Guttmacher attributes to an increase in travel from the Southeast “in the wake of Florida’s six-week gestational duration ban.” The pro-abortion organization said the increase in North Carolina occurred despite the state having its own 12-week restriction and 72-hour waiting period.

While it is wrong to terminate a viable pregnancy.
I also wonder how many would have ended up on Welfare, various Government handouts, and increased the crime rates attributed to single parent raised kids. Which causes roughly 118% higher in violent-crime rates, and 255% higher in homicide rates.
#2
Make up your mind. One week 'dangerous population drop in births', next week a million abortions.
A deeper dive in the birth issue shows that those on the redder side of the political spectrum are at or near replacement levels, its the bluer side that is dropping like a rock. Thus the Replacement Program with illegals as the Left is desperate to give at least a fig leaf to their election fraud.
[FoxNews] FAA investigating whether new measures suspending visual separation between planes, helicopters were applied during near-miss incident
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating after a close call Tuesday night between a United Airlines passenger plane and a Black Hawk helicopter at John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, California.
United Airlines flight 589 was on its final approach to John Wayne Airport when a Sikorsky Black Hawk helicopter crossed in front of its flight path at about 8:40 p.m., according to the FAA.
A United Airlines spokesperson told Fox News that the Boeing 737-800's pilots were advised by air traffic control to "watch for a military helicopter flying near the airport."
"They saw the helicopter and also received a traffic alert, which they responded to by leveling the aircraft," the spokesperson said. "The United flight then landed safely."
"Leveling" an aircraft refers to slowing or stopping descent and holding a constant altitude to increase vertical separation.
The airline confirmed 162 passengers and six crew members were on board the plane and did not report any injuries.
Air traffic control audio obtained by the New York Post indicated the United flight got close enough to the Black Hawk to set off an anti-collision warning, or "resolution advisory," from its traffic avoidance system.
The alert suggests a potential crash was only seconds away.
"United 589, just want to clarify here, did you get, uh … just a traffic call reference to the helicopter or did they restrict your altitude or anything," the controller reportedly asked the United flight.
"We had a resolution advisory for United 589, RA," a pilot replied.
"We’re gonna be addressing that because that was not good," the controller said.
The U.S. Army did not immediately respond to additional inquiries about the incident from Fox News Digital.
[ZERO] The Department of Justice (DOJ) and retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, a former national security adviser in President Donald Trump’s first term, reached an undisclosed financial settlement Wednesday, according to court documents. Long, long overdue.
Flynn sought a $50 million payout from the government for what he claimed were politically motivated actions against him. The settlement brings an end to a years-long dispute that stemmed from false claims of Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election.
Once Flynn has confirmed receipt of the settlement funds, he and the DOJ will file a joint dismissal of the case with prejudice, with each party bearing its own costs and fees, the agreement shows.
Flynn’s lawyer provided an emailed statement to The Epoch Times, including a statement from the former Trump adviser as well.
Although the case has reached a settlement, Flynn said, "Nothing can fully compensate for the hell that my family and I have endured over these many years."
"There should never again be such a brazen attempt to weaponize federal law enforcement against political opponents or innocent citizens," Flynn said.
"It is not this Department of Justice that created this crisis of politicized justice, but they are doing right by truly pursuing justice now."
The settlement, while imperfect, Flynn continued, brings an end to a chapter of partisan, ruinous injustice.
Flynn’s lawyer, Jesse Binnall, called him an American hero in the emailed statement.

I had infrequent exposure to Flynn at an activity in Reston, VA years ago. I can tell you there was no 'half-step' about this guy. He made things happen. He was highly revered within the community.

[REGNUM] Germany's oldest active political organization has lost support in its long-held stronghold. The Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) suffered a crushing defeat in the state parliamentary elections in Rhineland-Palatinate, where it had held power since 1991. This was further evidence of the party's profound systemic crisis.
The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party demonstrated a phenomenal result, garnering 21% of the votes of the youngest voters. This demonstrates that the AfD is transforming from a political pariah—a protest party in the poor states of the former GDR—into a genuine political force, actively winning the votes of young voters in the wealthy states of West Germany.
The SPD's 25.9% of the vote might seem like a significant gain. However, compared to the previous 2021 elections, it lost a full 10% here. And if not for popular local leader Alexander Schweitzer, the party's losses would likely have been catastrophic.
Now the SPD can only enter the new state coalition as a junior partner of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), repeating in miniature what has already happened at the federal government level.
Against the backdrop of depressing figures, Vice-Chancellor and head of the Social Democrats Klingbeil declared the need for “a frank conversation about strategic mistakes and the future role of the SPD in modern Germany.”
Since Chancellor Olaf Scholz's resignation in May 2025, the Social Democrats have continued to lose political influence. The party, which set the tone for German politics during the eras of Willy Brandt and Helmut Schmidt, has in recent months posted two of its worst results in its 150-year history: 5.5% in Baden-Württemberg (down 5.5% from the previous election) and now in Rhineland-Palatinate.
Looking at the voting results among voters aged 18-24, the situation for the "Reds" appears even more bleak.
Young voters are rapidly becoming radicalized and moving away from "moderate" political forces, such as the SPD. Meanwhile, the ratings of Die Linke (The Left), a party generally defined in mainstream German political science as leaning toward left-wing radical ideas, are rising.
How "left" the modern German "Left" is is actually a big question.
Soviet Marxist theorists of the first half of the 20th century would likely have classified the modern German party as a hybrid of Mensheviks and moderate Trotskyists. They had abandoned the leftist agenda, the cornerstone of which was the struggle for the rights of the working class against big capital, and had embraced actionism, empty talk, and a supposed struggle "for everything good against everything bad."
Oooooh… Ouch.
Such rhetoric, skillfully conveyed through modern media, consistently resonates with young Germans, who are unaccustomed to systemic thinking and carefully examining the political platforms of political parties, logically weighing campaign promises against the feasibility of their implementation. This is largely responsible for the "rebirth" of The Left, which barely made it into the Bundestag in the 2021 elections and was considered an anachronism from the GDR era.
Scathing.
The SPD's problem is that the Left is chipping away at its own youth electorate. Their radical demagoguery is proving more appealing to young people than the moderate programs of JuSo (the Young Socialist Organization, a sort of German social democratic equivalent of the Soviet Komsomol).
On the other hand, the SPD still benefits from its history, its reputation as a constructive force (already somewhat shaken), its pool of donors from big business, its well-established network of international connections, and its established contacts with the editorial offices of major media outlets.
The Left and the SPD already cooperate successfully in regional government coalitions, for example, in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. And in general, the Social Democrats find common ground with them much more easily than with the conservatives, with whom they are forced to enter into political alliances mostly out of desperation.
The "Reds" are also finding common ground with the "Greens," with whom they governed Rhineland-Palatinate until recently and coexisted relatively peacefully at the federal government level within the "traffic light coalition."
Therefore, further consolidation of left-wing and center-left political forces at the regional and federal levels in a bloc under the auspices of the SPD appears to be one possible direction for the party's political development. According to the current electoral preferences of young people in Rhineland-Palatinate, such a coalition would garner 48% of the vote (38.2% among all voters).
However, the radicalization of young people affects not only the left, but also the right side of the political spectrum, forcing them to choose in favor of the AfD.
For now, the Alternative's strong results are primarily affecting the nervous system of mainstream political forces: no one is planning to enter into coalitions with it due to the so-called firewall (the fundamental refusal of systemic parties to cooperate with radicals).
However, if the above-described “red-red-green” coalition becomes reality, leaving the conservatives from the CDU/CSU in the minority, they will have no choice but to seek support from the AfD.
Currently, the theoretical coalition of the "blacks" (CDU/CSU) and "blues" (AfD) at the level of Rhineland-Palatinate is gaining 35% among the region's youth and 50.5% among all categories of voters in the federal state.
After the election results in Rhineland-Palatinate were announced, AfD leader Alice Weidel noted that her party's opposition work would be "excellent."
"The political force that garnered 19.5% of the vote is once again not participating in the formation of the regional government, despite voters once again electing a center-right alliance," Weidel said sarcastically. "A center-right coalition with more than 50% of the vote would have been possible here without any problems," the AfD leader added.
With each new AfD success in regional or municipal elections, the proverbial firewall truly does become thinner. And if the Social Democrats do manage to form a center-left SPD-The Left-Greens alliance, the CDU/CSU, now in the minority, will simply be forced to admit the AfD into the coalition as a junior partner.
[RedState] On the first day of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) 2026, the microphones were handed over for a bit to two of Conservatism's next generation. Townhall's own Kurt Schlichter sat down with Nick Shirley, who recently exposed massive amounts of fraud in Minnesota, and the 25-year-old Mayor of Crosslake, Minnesota, Jackson Purfeest, who is also a college student.
Schlichter started by pointing out something that might be pretty obvious to seasoned CPAC attendees, and that is that Nick Shirley is carrying on the vision that the late Andrew Breitbart,
…of blessed memory…
as a young conservative citizen journalist, began. Schlichter rightly stated that the conservative movement is "passing on the torch" to guys like Shirley and Purfeest.
[WND] The oldest Catholic university in the nation employs queer professors who openly subvert Catholic prayers and teach courses on pornography and gender theory, leaving some students furious over the "ridicule" and "betrayal."
Amanda Phillips, a self-described "butch/transmasculine, Latinx" individual who goes by "they/he/she" pronouns, teaches several courses at Georgetown University revolving around gender, privilege, and even pornography. Meanwhile, adjunct lecturer Casey Catherine Moore posted a video of her "Bipolar Lady's Prayer," which changes the words from the Lord's prayer to read "give us this day our daily drugs."

[WND] Finland's Supreme Court has delivered a shocking anti-Christian ruling in a lawmaker's fight for free speech.
She was fined for expressing her biblical belief.
The court said Paivi Rasanen, a medical doctor and member of parliament there since 1995, was guilty of incitement. She was ordered to pay a fine of about $2,000.
Lower courts repeatedly had acquitted Rasanen of all charges in the anti-Christian agenda adopted by prosecutors that had them appealing over and over again.
Finally, the nation's highest court claimed its own authority over medical decisions and opinions, stating, "The Supreme Court considers that [...] Rasanen must have understood that, for example, claiming that homosexuality is a disorder of psychosexual development is, in light of the prevailing medical understanding, an incorrect assertion."
