Events From Around the Nation:

Cracker Barrel Cancels Remodels: Yes, Cracker Barrel is returning to its old logo. Yes, it is cancelling remodeling at its 660 restaurant locations. To date, only four eateries have been remodeled. There’s reporting that those will be returned to their original look. However, the company needs to stop supporting ridiculous pride/trans events.

Hyundai Hires Illegals: Illegals aren’t always standing in front of Home Depots or cleaning homes. Many can be found working full-time jobs that Americans would proudly do. As you know, several weeks ago, 475 ILLEGAL ALIENS were arrested by ICE at Hyundai’s battery factory in Ellabell, Georgia. To date, it was the “largest single-site” illegal immigration raid. Most of the aliens were Korean nationals who either crossed the border illegally or overstayed their visas. Hyundai has committed to $12.6 billion in investments in Georgia, which includes a recently opened car factory. We assumed that meant hiring AMERICANS!

Illinois:  Governor JB Pritzker who blames President Trump for Charlie Kirk’s murder considers ILLEGAL ALIENS to be law-abiding citizens although they ILLEGALLY crossed the border. “We have a law on the books in Illinois that says that our local law enforcement will stand up for those law-abiding, undocumented people in our states who are doing the right thing, and we’re not going to help federal officials just drag them away …” 

Michigan: The Dearborn Heights Police Department became the first police department in the nation to place Arabic on their patch. Dearborn, which is 55 percent Muslim, is now under Islamic control. Following a national outcry the patches with Arabic are now optional. We wonder how many police officers will opt for the Arabic version?

Personal note: Patriot Neighbors editor Robin Itzler grew up in Bayside, Queens, which post-World War II through the turn of the century was overwhelmingly Jewish. The police did not have Hebrew on their patches. 

California to New York California: According to The Epoch Times, these five Republican U.S. representatives would likely lose their current district if Proposition 50 passes in the November election. We visited the Freedom Index to see their conservative rating (the representatives are listed alpha order). 

1. Ken Calvert, 41st District 51 
2. Darrell Issa, 48th District 55 
3. Kevin Kiley, 3rd District 42 
4. Doug LaMalfa, 1st District 65 
5. David Valadao 22nd District 47 

New York City:  The so-called Democrat establishment does not want communist Zohran Mamdani to win the mayoral race. They know that if comrade Mamdani wins, it is proof that the Democrat party is officially the Communist-Democrat party. This could explain why Governor Kathy Hochul, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries have NOT endorsed him. — The GOP should be supporting Republican Curtis Sliwa! —  

Events From Around the Globe

Germany: For all the yakkity-yak about Germany not importing Israeli goods because of what is happening in Gaza, the government announced it planned to purchase three Heron drones from Israel for nearly €1 billion, expanding its existing fleet to eight. Israel Aerospace Industries will lead the production while two German firms will have key roles. Isn’t this where someone says yada, yada, yada about Germany’s boycott threat?

Venezuela: If you know anyone who supports communism, remind them how well Venezuela is doing as a communist nation. Once the brightest star in Latin America, this year the poverty-stricken communist nation projects hyper-inflation to EXCEED 530 percent. It’s so bad that dictator Nicolas Maduro announced that for the second year in a row, Christmas celebrations will begin on October 1. Maduro hopes to make people stop focusing on how awful things are in the South American nation by focusing on Christmas. Muy bueno, comrades!

Ireland:  Conor McGregor, the popular Ultimate Fighting Champion, wants to be Ireland’s next president, which is mostly a ceremonial position. He has until September 24 to receive backing from at least 20 of 234 members of Ireland’s parliament (called Oireachtas) OR four of 31 county or city councils. Elon Musk has formally endorsed McGregor's candidacy and criticized Irish officials for allegedly trying to block it. Some of McGregor’s comments:

1.  Abandoned children: “This incompetent failure of future generations has been accompanied with an intense influx of mass migration into an already severed system.”  
2. Bills: As president, I will not sign any bill into law until it goes back to the people first! 
3. Ireland: “Ireland is at the cusp of potentially losing its Irishness.” 
4. Israel: “Anyone who waves a Palestinian flag will be expelled from Ireland the same day. Israel is a country of heroes.”
