Kamala Harris’ Stepdaughter Ella Emhoff’s Secret Service Detail Arrests Man in NYC (VIDEO)

Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter Ella Emhoff’s Secret Service detail arrested a man described as an “anti-police watcher” on Tuesday afternoon.

The New York Post reported that Ella Emhoff, the daughter of Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, was eating inside a Tribeca, New York restaurant when a man confronted Emhoff’s Secret Service detail outside the restaurant.

The suspect, Harry Heymann, engaged in a heated argument with the officers about their parking placards.

Heymann, who was unaware the men he was confronting were Secret Service agents, allegedly ripped the Secret Service’s license plates off their black SUVs during the argument.

A Secret Service spokesperson stated, “On Tuesday afternoon, an individual approached two United States Secret Service vehicles parked in lower Manhattan and, without provocation, caused damage to the rear license plate area of both.”

“Secret Service Agents quickly detained the individual until local authorities arrived and placed the individual into police custody. At no point was any protectee in danger as a result of this incident,” added the spokesperson.

Per The New York Post:

The Secret Service detail assigned to Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter arrested an “anti-police watcher” during a heated altercation on a NYC sidewalk on Tuesday, video shows.

Ella Emhoff, the daughter of Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, was inside a Tribeca restaurant for lunch around 12:40 p.m. when Harry Heymann– who lives around the corner — confronted her detail outside, according to cops and the clip.

The 45 year old goes around the city complaining about cars that have NYPD parking placards that can park wherever instead of driving around the block, sources said.

Heymann, wearing a black shirt, confronted one of Emhoff’s plain-clothes agents at Hudson and North Moore Streets, not knowing he was a part of the Secret Service.

The agitator allegedly ripped the license plate covers off both of the black SUVs parked on the street during the argument, leading to the NYPD being called to the scene.

WAYNE ROOT: Mr. President, Now Is the Time to Combine “No Tax on Tips” with “No Tax on Social Security for Seniors” for the Greatest One-Two Punch Since Mike Tyson!

By Wayne Allyn Root

I’ve campaigned for this idea for over five years now. I’ve written commentaries about it (including right here at TheGatewayPundit). I’ve pitched it to politicians. I’ve screamed from the highest mountains on my TV and radio shows.

And this past Saturday, I made it my #1 story on my “America’s Top Ten Countdown” show on Real America’s Voice TV.

That’s something I’ve never done before in my 100 previous shows. I always make the biggest news story of the week my #1 story. This is the first time I’ve ever pitched one of my ideas as the #1 story in America. But this is the best idea of my life!

I urged President Trump to champion “No Tax on Social Security for Seniors.”

And I believe it’s about to happen. Because this morning, out of the blue, President Trump posted at TruthSocial the following statement (in all caps!)…

“SENIORS SHOULD NOT PAY TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY.”

Bingo. Bullseye. Homerun. Now that he’s on board with the greatest idea of my life to push the GOP to adopt “no tax on Social Security for seniors,” it’s time to add it officially to the GOP platform, Mr. President. And to make it an official part of your campaign.

It’s time to start announcing it, and promoting it, and pitching it, at every opportunity- press releases, speeches, rallies, TV ads.

Here’s why this is so important…

First, it goes hand in hand with “NO TAX ON TIPS”- like frick and frack, like Texas and football, like Chevrolet and apple pie. Like the GOP and tax cuts.

From now on, every time you mention “NO TAX ON TIPS” also mention “NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY FOR SENIORS.” They go hand-in-hand.

Second, this will clinch the election, Mr. President. If you thought “no tax on tips” was a great idea because there are 12 million service employees in America, what about 62 million seniors on Social Security?

That’s 62 million potential votes.

That means there are five times more seniors than service employees. 62 million is the biggest voting bloc in America. What senior will vote for higher taxes and less money for themselves, in the middle of the worst inflation in modern history?

Who doesn’t want a raise? You’re giving every senior a raise.

Third, you should do it because it’s fair, and it’s the right thing to do. Seniors worked their whole lives, and were forced at gunpoint (by the IRS) to pay Social Security taxes for 40 years or more. They already paid the tax. Then when they turn 65 or older, they get it back slowly, with no interest after 40 years. And yet our government asks them to pay taxes on it again?

That‘s double taxation without representation.

Big Brother and the IRS kept our money for 40 years without interest and then expects us to pay a tax to get back our own money (slowly)? That’s highway robbery. That’s unfair. That’s not right.

Fourth, this is a no-brainer, because seniors didn’t pay taxes on Social Security benefits until 1983. If it was untaxed until then, why can’t it be untaxed now? Why can’t we go back to the old system?

Who changed it and decided to tax seniors? Joe Biden.

Isn’t that poetic? Joe Biden voted twice to tax Social Security. Once in both 1983 to add the tax, and again in 1993 to increase the taxes on Social Security. No surprise. Joe Biden has been wrong on every issue for half a century in DC.

“Always wrong” Joe is the guy responsible for screwing seniors. And now President Trump can ride the fight to undo Joe’s senior citizen tax all the way back to the White House- to replace Joe.

That’s poetic justice.

Lastly, this idea puts Democrats in a deadly position. Will Democrats oppose the elimination of taxes on Social Security for seniors? Will they admit they want taxes on seniors? Oops, there goes the election.

Now we come to the best part of my plan. How do we pay for it?

Democrats would of course want higher taxes on everyone else to pay for it. They always want to steal more of hard-working taxpayers’ money. And what do they use all these taxes for?

A) Giving hundreds of billions to Ukraine.

B) Spending trillions on open borders and tens of millions of foreign invaders.

C) Welfare and free healthcare for illegal aliens.

D) Hiring 80,000+ new IRS agents to make our lives hell.

So, President Trump please announce you’ll pay for the elimination of this unfair tax on seniors without raising taxes a dime. Instead you’ll cut spending by…

A) Ending all funding of the war in Ukraine (watch how fast the war ends).

B) Securing the border, ending illegal immigration, and deporting 20 plus million illegals.

C) Ending all forms of welfare, free healthcare and government handouts to illegal aliens…

and D) Clawing back the $80 billion for the IRS to hire 80,000+ new IRS agents.

That’s enough spending cuts to not only pay for “no tax on tips” and “no tax on Social Security for seniors,” but you’ll have enough left over to lower income taxes on every American.

The individual tax rate is too damn high.

We should go back to Reagan’s top tax rate of 28%. That produced record tax revenue, and the greatest GDP in modern history. Cutting taxes always creates a booming economy and more tax revenue.

Mr. President please spread the love around. Every American deserves a tax break.

This is how we win the whole enchilada- President Trump goes onto win a landslide, Republicans retake the US Senate and the GOP House expands our lead.

And we have four years to “Make America Great Again.”

WATCH: Kamala Harris Supporters at Teacher’s Union Convention Left Befuddled When Asked to Name Her Top “Accomplishments”

Credit: Fox News screenshot

Several attendees at Kamala Harris’ address to the American Federation of Teachers’ Convention in Houston, Texas, last Thursday were left stumped when asked to name her “accomplishments” throughout her political career.

During her address to the far-left teacher’s union, which has 1.8 million members nationwide, Harris called the election between her and President Trump a choice of “two different visions” for America. She then pledged to implement a radical left agenda should she “win” the race, including banning several firearms, implementing abortion-on-demand nationwide, and gutting voter integrity laws.

Fox News caught up with attendees during the event and asked them one simple question: What do you consider Kamala Harris’ top accomplishments?

One would think that these devoted activists, who supposedly follow politics closely, would be able to gaslight the outlet and paint Harris as a superwoman effectively. But this did not happen.

“I don’t know. She was Vice-President of the United States…I really don’t know much of what she did,” one attendee told Fox News.

“Ummm…I’m not sure I know enough about her accomplishments to answer that question,” a Harris supporter from Massachusetts said.

Others spouted platitudes while unable to name a specific policy accomplishment of Harris’.

One male attendee stated, without elaborating, “Kamala has been at the forefront of human rights, civil rights, and LGBTQ rights since she was a prosecutor in California.”

“I, uh, think, her, um, biggest accomplishment is how she fights for education,” said a female attendee.

One person, unable to name Harris’s policies, claimed her being a female VP was an accomplishment.

“First of all, right now, to have a female as VP in the White House is incredible and amazing. She has been so inspirational to so many, so I think that’s an accomplishment of hers,” she said.

Many other attendees listed her titles as California attorney general, senator, and vice president but could not state one thing she did in these roles.

“I guess she definitely made her stamp in history by being the first African American female vice president and soon to be the first president as a woman of color,” said one attendee from New York.

Just a reminder: every one of these individuals votes. Heaven help us if they get their wish because America may become unrecognizable when Harris and her party are finished.

SURPRISE! FBI Declassifies 950 Pages on Suspected Fed Front Group Patriot Front – Nearly Every Page Is FULLY REDACTED

Emblem of the Federal Bureau of Investigation

The FBI declassified two packages of documents on the suspected federal front group Patriot Front on Monday.

** The Patriot Front Part 01 document release included 586 pages.
** The Patriot Front Part 02 document release included 364 pages.

After reviewing the documents The Gateway Pundit reporter Anthony Townley found that nearly every page is fully redacted.

The Gateway Pundit has reported on this suspect federal front group numerous times over the past three years.

Here is an example of the redacted pages from package 02:

Empty Patriot Front document

Empty Patriot Front document

This should come as no surprise to The Gateway Pundit readers.

As The Gateway pundit previously reported, charges were dropped against the Patriot Front group leader in Idaho after 22 duped recruits were found guilty in court.

In June 2022, 31 members of the Patriot Front group were arrested in Idaho for planning a protest at the Gay Pride rally.

They were traveling to a gay pride event with homemade shields in the back of a Uhaul. They had no other weapons.

31 members of the Patriot Front group were arrested in Idaho in 2022 for planning a protest against the gay rights parade. Their leader, Thomas Rousseau, is circled in red.

They had committed no violence but possibly could have — so they were arrested.

Law enforcement in Idaho admitted they had informants inside the Patriot Front group before the arrests were made.

Since the Patriot front group first appeared, The Gateway Pundit always suspected they had links to the Feds. We were convinced federal agents infiltrated the group.

The Patriot Front group founder, Thomas Rousseau, first made headlines in 2017 when he participated in the famous Tiki Torch march in Charlottesville, Virginia. Now, he is the leader of the Patriot Front.

Thomas Rosseau was able to get his supporters at a training session to pose for a photo that was later published in their forum.  And now it’s public, thanks to Unicorn Riot.

Patriot Front was later organized by Thomas Rousseau in the immediate aftermath of 2017’s Unite the Right march in Charlottesville, VA.

This young man had been previously arrested, as noted below.  The FBI is notorious for taking individuals who have been arrested and then, through threats, the agency persuades them to work with the FBI as informants.

 

TGP also located some notes related to interviews the Patriot Front has had with potential candidates for the group. In these notes for one individual identified as Gabriel in California, it was revealed that this candidate is a government informant. Four individuals also offer references on the guy.

Below is a composite of the Patriot Front group via XRVision.

The FBI admitted they were “tracking” the group for over a year before the arrests in 2022.

Kyle Becker reported:

The FBI had been tracking the group for more than a year before Coeur d’Alene Police arrested a purported ‘small army’ of members at the Idaho Pride event. According to the Associated Press, among those arrested was Thomas Ryan Rousseau, identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as founder of the group after the “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017.

The Rolling Stone published documents that reveal the FBI has been eying the Patriot Front group for over a year back in 2022.

Following the arrests of the 31 Patriot Front members in June 2022, seven members were found guilty in jury trials in 2023.  Another 15 members pleaded guilty. So a total of 22 of the men arrested were found guilty of conspiracy to riot, a misdemeanor.

Patriot Front leader Thomas Rousseau was let off.  As KREM2 reported, his charges were dropped in 2023 for some reason. The Idaho Court Portal does not state why they were dropped.

The local Idaho police turned over the 37 electronic devices and phones over to the FBI after the Patriot Front members were arrested.

Amuse wrote this about the Patriot Front group.

Prosecutors faced significant hurdles when the FBI refused to cooperate, withholding crucial evidence against Rousseau. This non-cooperation led to the dismissal of the case against Rousseau by Judge John Cafferty in November of last year.

Local prosecutors handed over 37 cellphones, cameras, and USB drives belonging to Patriot Front members, totaling 3,500GB of data, to the FBI. After holding these devices for seven months, the FBI refused to return them to prosecutors, making them unavailable to the defense, who believed the devices might contain exculpatory evidence.

Rousseau’s defense attorney was redirected back to city prosecutors, who themselves were being stonewalled by the FBI. Ultimately, local prosecutors informed the judge they lacked the legal authority to compel the FBI to return the evidence. As a consequence of the FBI’s refusal to cooperate, the case against Rousseau was dismissed​. SOURCES: [InvestigateWest] and [IBS]

Local police handed over 37 cellphones, cameras, and USB drives belonging to Patriot Front members, totaling 3,500GB of data, to the FBI. After seven months, the FBI refused to return them to prosecutors, making them unavailable to the defense, who believed the devices might contain exculpatory evidence.

Rousseau’s defense attorney was redirected back to city prosecutors, who were also being stonewalled by the FBI. Local prosecutors informed the judge they lacked the legal authority to compel the FBI to return the evidence, leading to the dismissal of the case.

Given the evidence, it is clear that Thomas Ryan Rousseau is either an asset for the FBI/HSI (in some capacity) or an unwitting patsy used by the federal government to operate a honeypot aimed at entrapping individuals with extremist racist ideologies.

Obviously, it is quite clear that the Patriot Front group has close ties to the federal government.

What the hell is our government doing, setting up innocent Americans in their petty crime schemes?

Who is Thomas Rousseau?

Trump Announces Plan to Eliminate Taxes on Social Security Checks

Former President Donald Trump announced his intention to eliminate taxes on Social Security checks if he regains the White House.

This announcement comes as part of a larger strategy outlined by the Republican National Committee (RNC) in their 2024 GOP Platform released earlier this month, titled “Make America Great Again!”

This comprehensive platform is inspired by the enduring vision of former President Donald Trump.

“The Republican National Committee (RNC) Platform Committee adopted President Donald J. Trump’s 2024 Republican Party Platform with overwhelming support– a pro-American agenda that stands in stark contrast to the record of weakness, failure, and dishonesty created by Joe Biden,” the Trump campaign said.

“President Trump’s platform serves as a contract with the American voter that makes clear what we can and will deliver under a President Trump administration with the Republican Party leading the country for the next four years.”

RNC Releases ‘2024 GOP Platform to Make America Great Again’ Inspired by Trump’s Vision for America — Here are the Details

The platform emphasizes a commitment to protecting Social Security and Medicare, promising no cuts or changes to the retirement age—a sentiment that resonates deeply with millions of Americans who rely on these programs for financial stability.

“Fight For And Protect Social Security And Medicare With No Cuts, Including No Changes To The Retirement Age” is one of the twenty core promises highlighted in the platform.

On Wednesday, Trump took to Truth Social to amplify his message. “SENIORS SHOULD NOT PAY TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY!” he declared, framing the tax elimination as a necessary step to ensure that seniors can keep more of their hard-earned benefits.

His statement has been met with enthusiasm from many, who view this proposal as a direct response to the financial struggles faced by older Americans.

Below are some of the reactions online:

“It’s Officially a Cover-Up!” – Secret Service Rejects FOIA Requests For Trump Assassination Records

The Secret Service rejected FOIA requests for records related to the attempted assassination against President Trump.

Would-be assassin Thomas Crooks, 20, managed to evade state, local and federal law enforcement officers, climb on a roof and take 8 shots at President Trump during his Butler, Pennsylvania rally on July 13.

A bullet grazed President Trump’s ear after he turned his head at the last second to read a chart on illegal immigration.

Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch filed three FOIA requests seeking records related to the assassination attempt and the agency refused to produce and documents.

Judicial Watch said it is preparing for litigation.

Judicial Watch reported:

Judicial Watch announced today that the United States Secret Service completely denied multiple Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests for documents about the assassination attempt on former President Trump.

On July 16, 2024, Judicial Watch filed three comprehensive FOIA requests seeking emails, videos, and advance survey security assessments, among other documents related to the assassination attempt on Trump

The Secret Service refused to produce not one record in response:

At this time, pursuant to Title 5 U.S.C. § 552(B)(7)(A), any potentially responsive records, if they exist, are exempt as disclosure could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings. The citation of the above exemption is not to be construed as the only exemption which may be available under the FOIA.

“The Biden Secret Service is in cover-up mode on its inexcusable and epic failure to protect former President Trump and other innocents. said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “For Secret Service leaders to promise transparency to Congress while hiding every possible FOIA record from the American people is yet another indictment of this corrupt and failing agency.”

Don’t Let Them Rewrite History: Kamala Harris Remains A Deeply Flawed Candidate With A Terrible Record

Kamala Harris has always been a weak candidate, and it is imperative Republican voters never lose sight of that fact, even as the mainstream media enters overdrive and hypes her to the moon.  At first blush her candidacy, which in recent weeks has been buoyed by fake news and inflated polls combined with contrived optics – make it appear as if a groundswell of support exists in the real world.   But that could not be further from the truth.

That is not to dismiss the powerful forces of propaganda and the malleability – particularly of the current body politic – to readily adopt the opinions spoon-fed to them by regime agitprop outlets like The New York Times, CNN, and Google.  And it is oftentimes true that in politics perception is reality – but facts are also stubborn things.

And no amount of gaslighting can change the undeniable truth that Kamala remains so woefully lacking in charisma, intelligence, and really any practical skill (other than not being Joe Biden) that would raise a serious threat to derail Donald Trump’s third bid for the White House.

On paper, Kamala Harris portrays every bit the mediocrity that Joe Biden was and remains, only dumber. She has never obtained any position in her public career out of merit; everything she was given was on account of her race or sex – or (to get her start in politics under her mentor, Willie Brown) sexual favor.  She is anything but a world-class strategist, and her disastrous track record – a function of her incompetence – is on display in spades, from her mismanagement of the border to her pathetic attempts at overseas diplomacy.

Thus far her sorry excuse for a campaign – abetted by embarrassing influencers on social media and cringe messaging – showcases an immaturity and rank stupidity that is unbecoming of any world leader, least of all the president of the United States.  In short, she is a lightweight; a moronic woman who is patently ill-suited to her current and desired office.

No matter how much she might try to convince herself that she is capable, it has always been apparent to the saner part of the electorate that Kamala Harris, DEI candidate par excellence, is out of her league.  As president, she would be a laughingstock the world over, a homewrecker that would obliterate what remnants of diminishing credibility America’s brand still commands on the world stage, and likely permanently.

It is important to keep this realistic assessment of Kamala Harris – amid this utterly insane race – in mind, particularly as we spiral down this turbulent final stretch of the cycle, which has already observed one candidate come an inch away from losing his life, and the other drop out entirely from a coup led by operatives plotting within his own administration.  Kamala was paired with Joe Biden in 2020, rendering her every bit as illegitimate as that fraudulent contest that unduly sidelined President Trump for the last four or so years.

The taint of illegitimacy does not vanish through Biden’s ouster – it lingers and, if anything, further enhances with Kamala Harris’ ascent to the top of the Democratic ticket, for she is the walking representative of the deep state’s literal war with democracy.  What is more, she stands as the least democratic presidential candidate in history, having failed to garner more than single digits in her own party’s primary four years ago.

Like Biden, in 2020, she careened her way into the White House off millions of illegal ballots and is actively plotting, through the help of her donors and media friends, to do it again in 2024.  Ergo, the true explanation for this makeshift hype around her: distraction from her endless liabilities, including actively covering up Biden’s still-ongoing senility, which poses a grave national security crisis and risk to every single American citizen.

It obfuscates her role in the Biden regime’s countless crises – from the border to inflation to foreign policy – and takes the spotlight away from Donald Trump, whose own near-assassination, almost surely the consequence of the very same deep state now looking to install Kamala as their next puppet-president, is now not getting the comprehensive congressional investigation that equals the scale of the near-tragedy that almost occurred in Butler that it deserves.

Those are the issues that must remain our focus despite all the past week’s historical revisionism, which is looking to exploit our fears and ignorance to make it seem as if the Kamala Harris “presidency” was every bit as plausible as her boss garnering 81 million votes.

But we know that is a ludicrous presupposition because it flies in the face of common sense, the central pillar of President Trump’s 2024 campaign.  Our common sense would dictate the conclusion that was, and still is, supported even by mainstream polling: Kamala Harris is as unpopular, if not more so, than Joe Biden.

She is deeply unlikable and cannot establish a personal link with voters, particularly in the all-important rustbelt region.  This is a region teeming with white working-class voters, who will never resonate with the Democrats’ policies of open borders, high crime, endless wars, and offshoring more jobs to China and India. These are the flesh and blood voters that will decide the outcome of the 2024 race, much as they did in 2016.   Instinctively, these voters align with Donald Trump and his rhetoric and style, not Kamala Harris.

So we should rest assured knowing that reality cleaves in the direction of common sense, what we must not do is abandon what our eyes can see and ears can hear for the deluded narratives of mainstream media that would have us believe Kamala Harris is the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, and that her coronation is all but a foregone conclusion.  If we fall into the trap of believing those absurdities, we abandon our prerogative to be happy warriors and give in to despair and pessimism — never a good thing.

As no demoralized army has ever won a war, so too has a demoralized electorate never won an election.  That is why the Left is working so hard to promote this deeply unpopular and flawed woman for the nation’s highest office. The more we adopt the Left’s frame of reference, the harder it becomes to maintain strong footing when inevitably comes the day where we will need to actively thwart the Left’s attempt to steal another election, in courts of law and at polling places, to ensure that our rightful president gets the second administration he deserves.

It will be much easier, if the day comes, for a court to review evidence of election fraud if the Right has not adopted the Left’s perspective, as many parts did in 2020, and retains steadfast in its commitment to truth, rather than have doubts and entertain the notion that a Kamala presidency was even for the slightest moment within the realm of possibility.  By ignoring the noise and simply listening to our reason and common sense, it will always be the most direct path to the most obvious conclusion: that the Kamala hype was always full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Panama Prepares for an Increase in Migrants through the Darien after Electoral Fraud in Venezuela

By Joana Campos

The recent electoral fraud in Venezuela, which has led to the disputed re-election of Nicolás Maduro, is generating concern in Panama, as a significant increase in the flow of Venezuelan migrants who will cross the dangerous Darien jungle on their way to the United States is anticipated. . The Panamanian president, José Raúl Mulino, has expressed his concern and the need to take measures to manage this situation.

In a press conference, Mulino stated: “I believe, and I hope I am wrong, that the flow of Venezuelans [through the Darién] is going to increase for obvious reasons. We also have to adopt the corresponding decisions to safeguard their lives, their integrity and give expeditious passage to people who want to emigrate to the United States.”

This statement underscores the anticipation of an increase in migration due to political instability in Venezuela.

So far this year, more than 200,000 people have crossed the Darien jungle, and two-thirds of these migrants are Venezuelans, according to official Panamanian figures. The Darién jungle, located on the border between Panama and Colombia, is one of the most dangerous routes for migrants due to its mighty rivers, wild animals and the presence of criminal groups that commit robberies, murders and rapes.

Panama and the United States signed an agreement on July 1 in which Washington undertakes to finance with six million dollars the deportation and expulsion of migrants from the Central American country who cross the Darien. However, Mulino clarified that he does not plan to repatriate anyone “by force.”

Hamas Leader Killed in Iran

Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas’s political and diplomatic leader, was killed in his residence in Tehran Wednesday morning, according to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps. Haniyeh’s bodyguard was also claimed to have been killed.

The IRGC statement read:

With condolences to the heroic nation of Palestine and the Islamic nation and the combatants of the Resistance Front and the noble nation of Iran, this morning [Wednesday] the residence of Mr. Dr. Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the political office of the Islamic Resistance of Hamas, was hit in Tehran, and following this incident, he and one of his bodyguards were martyred.

Haniyeh was elected as the Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority in 2006, serving until his 2007 dismissal by the Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. Haniyeh had lived in Qatar since 2017, moving there after succeeding Khaled Mashal as Hamas’s political leader. Haniyeh was in Tehran for the swearing in of Iran’s new president Masoud Pezeshkian.

Alongside Yahya Sinwar, the military leader of Hamas, Haniyeh was one the two most powerful men in the Sunni militant organization. The International Criminal Court had issued an arrest warrant for him in late May. Hamas has responded to Haniyeh’s assassination by releasing its own statement, which claimed that Haniyeh was killed in “a treacherous Zionist raid on his residence in Tehran.”
