Jihadis Literally at the Door and All Progs Can Worry About Is the White Guy on the Sidewalk

Two delightful young men from affluent households in Pennsylvania bopped over to relatively nearby New York City this Saturday.

The distance is what we used to call ‘comfortable daytripping.’

As it was pretty decent weather, and with a lot going on in the world, it seemed the two young men had more interest in the various political demonstrations that were planned rather than in some good eating and shopping. Although they were headed for one of Manhattan’s most iconic venues, Gracie Mansion, the official residence of the mayor of New York, so maybe a little sightseeing.

There were some demonstrations planned in front of the mansion, with a small one led by a pardoned January 6 protestor named Jake Lang. That’s about as much as I knew of him, and that he seems to be a bit of an agent provocateur. He, with a small group of like-minded protestors and a goat, was in front of the mayor’s home, noisily but peacefully informing whoever passed by that the city had elected a Muslim mayor and the city was already slipping away.

There was already word on the street that forces were going to try to take Jake Lang ‘out’ before the event even got rolling.

Sources also state that anarchists are carrying weapons on them and a ” green light ” has been put on Jake’s head ..

Sources warn the situation could turn extremely violent and dangerous, with tensions already building ahead of the demonstration and concerns that anarchist groups may attempt to confront or attack Lang if he appears.

Jake got there complete with his broskis, the goat, and, rumor had it, a roasted pig, and so did the two lads from Pennsylvania. 

They, too, were bearing gifts, but of the mass destruction kind.

I just survived an assassination attempt by these two Muslim men;

The homemade bomb they threw landed 3 feet in front of me.

The detonator failed to ignite, because God is on the throne of my life.

Jars wrapped in tape that had to be lit and then thrown.

Oh, yeah – making sure to shout ‘Allahu akbar!’ for good measure

One landed within feet of Lang, who took off, but valiant New York City police rushed in as everyone booked.

The two Pennsylvania teenagers were arrested.

…A day earlier, the police arrested Emir Balat, 18, of Langhorne, Pa., accusing him of throwing a homemade bomb and another smoking projectile during a counterprotest outside Gracie Mansion that day.

Ibrahim Nikk, 19, of Newton, Pa., who is accused of supplying one of them, was also arrested on Saturday, the police said.

What the lads had chucked, which had thankfully failed to explode, was the nastiest and most foul type of homemade IED-type one can imagine. You have to be a sick mother to come up with something like that, and it turns out these two losers went searching for the ‘how-to’ from some of the sickest mothers known to man.

…Three people with knowledge of the matter said that the bomb, which released clouds of smoke, contained shrapnel and was designed to kill or maim. One of the two men who were arrested told the authorities that he sympathized with ISIS, according to two of the people.

🚨 BREAKING: Two Arrested After Bomb Devices Thrown at Activist Jake Lang in NYC 🚨

NYPD Jessica Tisch briefed the press after two suspects were arrested in connection with explosive devices thrown at activist Jake Lang during a protest in New York City.

…Police identified the suspects as Abraham Nick and Amir Balat, both 18 years old and described as being of Arab descent. Authorities say Amir Balat allegedly yelled “Allahu Akbar” before throwing a device packed with nuts, bolts, and other shrapnel toward Lang.

Investigators recovered two explosive devices at the scene. Fortunately, the bombs did not detonate properly, preventing what could have been a far more serious incident.

The NYPD Bomb Squad responded and safely secured the devices. Both suspects are now in custody as the investigation continues.

Hundreds of innocent people on that street and in the surrounding buildings could have been maimed or killed.

HUNDREDS

The mayor of New York released this statement on the close escape from disaster at the hands of two jihadi terrorists.

DAMN WHITE SUPREMACISTS

Yesterday, white supremacist Jake Lang organized a protest outside Gracie Mansion rooted in bigotry and racism. Such hate has no place in New York City. It is an affront to our city’s values and the unity that defines who we are.

What followed was even more disturbing. Violence…

— Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani (@NYCMayor) March 8, 2026

…What followed was even more disturbing. Violence at a protest is never acceptable. The attempt to use an explosive device and hurt others is not only criminal, it is reprehensible and the antithesis of who we are.

I want to thank the brave men and women of the NYPD who acted quickly to keep New Yorkers safe. Our officers ran toward danger without hesitation, demonstrating once again the courage and dedication it takes to protect this city every single day.

My administration is closely monitoring the situation and I remain in close contact with our Police Commissioner.

He does not mention WHO ‘attempted’ to use an explosive device.

There is only a screed against Jake Lang’s bigotry, hate, and racism, which has no place in New York City.

Jake Lang engaged in peaceful, lawful free speech.

How deep does that rot go? Even the fellow caught in the video saying ‘Everyone is welcome in New York City!’ as the terrorist literally flings the bomb over his head…says everyone is STILL welcome…except for Jake Lang.

And I still stand by it.
As a born and raised in New Yorker, everyone is welcome.

Everyone except chief goatfucker Jake Lang. pic.twitter.com/8wd1TeBYTi

The twisted Leftoid progressive does not realize that his life is sacred to Jake Lang, whereas romanticized Bomb Boy would have killed him along with everyone else in the name of his twisted religion.

The national and local media insisted on referring to them as ‘smoke bombs’ until it became impossible to admit what they were – weapons of mass destruction.

The two bombers are from naturalized immigrant families from Turkey and Afghanistan.

MORE: I’m told by federal law enforcement sources that New York City IED suspect EMIR BALAT’s parents are both from Turkey & were naturalized into US citizens in 2017, while IBRAHIM KAYUMI’s parents are both from Afghanistan. Mom naturalized in 2009, dad naturalized in 2004. https://t.co/XfZwGNvPJ2

And I do not believe, from the homes I’m seeing, that anyone was living hand to mouth on the street, breeding resentment against the United States.

Their only saving grace in this entire thing is that they were from out of state, and that leaves them in the tender hands of the federal justice system, not Alvin Bragg.

Nick Shirley is already in the city, and I hope he’s got someone watching his back.

He interviewed Jake.

It’s like the mayor really doesn’t want that sort of city anymore.

And a fair amount of his residents would have no clue what hit them in any event.
