Booker slammed for alleged ‘Nazi salute’ to Cali Dems just months after Musk was dragged for same gesture

Conservatives are mocking Sen. Cory Booker for delivering an alleged «Nazi salute» to California Democrats, while quipping the New Jersey Democrat won’t get the same scrutiny Elon Musk did when he raised his arm to MAGA supporters in January.
«NEW: Democrat Senator Cory Booker appears to do a ‘Nazi’ salute in front of a large crowd of Democrats. I’m looking forward to the wall to wall coverage from the ‘honest’ and totally not biased media,» Trending Politics co-owner Collin Rugg posted to X, accompanied by footage of the gesture.
«If Elon Musk is a Nazi for doing this gesture… Cory Booker is one too. Sorry, I don’t make the rules,» X user Angela Belcamino posted.
Booker traveled to the Los Angeles area on Saturday, where he addressed the California Democratic Party’s convention, calling on supporters to «stand up» to President Donald Trump and repeating a handful of messages he delivered during his marathon 25-hour speech on the Senate floor in March railing against Musk, the Department of Government Efficiency, and the Trump administration for its alleged attacks on «Americans’ safety, financial stability, the core foundations of our democracy.»

Sen. Cory Booker addressed the California Democratic convention at the Anaheim Convention Center.
«Real change does not come from Washington. It comes from communities. It comes from the streets. It comes from the people who’s standing up and have shown over and over again – against the powerful, against the elected, against the rich – that the power of the people is greater than the people in power,» Booker said on Saturday to the California Democrats.
He capped off his roughly 15-minute speech with a gesture where he placed his right hand on his chest before raising it to the crowd.
Musk delivered a similar gesture in January on Trump’s inauguration day, which yielded dozens of headlines from mainstream media outlets that Musk delivered a «Nazi-style salute» to Trump supporters. Liberals and critics frequently attacked Trump while he was on the campaign trail by calling him a Hitler-esque fascist, including former Vice President Kamala Harris, who compared Trump to the German dictator during a town hall in October.

Conservatives and others pounced on the footage of Booker, asking if media outlets would accuse the New Jersey Democrat of gesturing like a Nazi.
«Will Corey Booker be plastered all over msm with headlines claiming he’s a ‘Nazi’?» The Post Millennial’s X account posted, accompanied by footage of the gesture.
DEM SENATOR SAYS PARTY BRAND IS ‘REALLY PROBLEMATIC’ AND LED TO THE LOSS OF TRUST OF WORKING-CLASS VOTERS
«Here’s a list of all the news networks who have not covered Cory Booker’s salute: – NYTimes – CNN – Washington Post – MSNBC – NPR – USA Today – Reuters – Axios – ABC News Every single one of them wrote stories on Elon Musk’s ‘salute’… …do you get it yet?» former government scientist Matt van Swol posted to X.
Musk responded to van Swol: «Legacy media is one big psy op.»

ELON MUSK’S OFFICIAL ROLE AT TRUMP’S DOGE ENDS, BUT HIS POLITICAL IMPACT LINGERS AHEAD OF MIDTERMS
«Cory Booker is a straight up NAZI! WOW,» conservative X user Gunther Eagleman posted.
Other X posts included direct comparison between Musk’s wave in January and Booker’s gesture on Saturday.

«Cory Booker was obviously just waving to the crowd. Anyone who claims his wave is the same as Elon Musk’s gesture is operating in bad faith. The differences between the two are obvious to anyone without an agenda,» Booker spokesperson Maya Krishna-Rogers told Fox News Digital on Sunday when asked about the gesture.
Booker did not appear to join fellow liberals in comparing Musk’s wave to a Nazi salute in January, although he has previously slammed Trump as «worse than a racist,» accusing him in 2019 of using «racist tropes» as «a weapon to divide our nation against itself.»

Guerra en Gaza: denuncian que 21 niños murieron de desnutrición o hambre en las últimas 72 horas

Un hospital de Gaza informó este martes que 21 niños murieron de desnutrición o hambre en las últimas 72 horas en el enclave palestino, donde Israel está expandiendo sus operaciones contra Hamas entre una creciente condena internacional.
Los 2,4 millones de habitantes de Gaza se enfrentan a una grave escasez de alimentos y artículos de primera necesidad. Además, para ahondar aún más la crisis humanitaria, los centros de distribución de ayuda humanitaria son atacados regularmente.

“Veintiún niños han muerto debido a la desnutrición y el hambre en diferentes zonas de la Franja de Gaza (…) durante las últimas 72 horas”, declaró Mohamed Abu Salmiya, director del hospital Al Chifa.
Un importante funcionario de seguridad israelí, citado en forma anónima por The Israel Times, dijo que el ejército no había identificado hambruna en Gaza, aunque afirmó que se deben tomar medidas para “estabilizar la situación humanitaria”.
El funcionario reconoció que hubo una caída significativa en la cantidad de ayuda que llega a los palestinos en la Franja, pero culpó a los organismos de las Naciones Unidas por no recoger y distribuir los alimentos y suministros. The Jerusalen Post, en base a una fuente militar, dijo que grupos de ayuda internacional tienen 950 camiones estacionados en el lado de Gaza de la frontera que no entregaron a los palestinos.
Fuerte condena de la ONU
En tanto, el secretario general de la ONU, Antonio Guterres, condenó el “horror” en Gaza, donde se alcanzó “un nivel de muerte y destrucción sin precedentes en la historia reciente”.
Previamente, el Alto Comisionado de Naciones Unidas para los Derechos Humanos, Volker Türk, acusó al ejército israelí de matar a 1054 personas que esperaban ayuda desde fines de mayo, 766 de ellas “cerca de las instalaciones de la Fundación Humanitaria de Gaza (GHF) y 288 cerca de los convoyes de ayuda de la ONU y otras organizaciones humanitarias”.

Este martes, la Defensa Civil gazatí, en manos de Hamas, anunció que ataques atribuidos a Israel mataron a 15 personas, 13 de ellas en el campamento de Al Shati, en el norte de Gaza, que alberga a miles de desplazados.
El organismo también informó de la muerte de dos personas en Deir el Balah, en el centro del territorio, donde Israel anunció la expansión de sus operaciones y llamó a la población a evacuar.

El ejército israelí declaró que sus soldados “identificaron disparos en su dirección, en la zona de Deir el-Balah y respondieron al fuego atacando el origen de los disparos.
Según la Oficina de las Naciones Unidas para la Coordinación de Asuntos Humanitarios (OCHA), entre 50.000 y 80.000 personas se encontraban en la zona en ese momento. Casi el 88% de Gaza está hoy bajo orden de evacuación israelí o incluida en una zona militarizada israelí.
Crece la presión internacional sobre Israel
El patriarca latino de Jerusalén, Pierbattista Pizzaballa, dijo que la situación humanitaria en la Franja de Gaza es “moralmente inaceptable”, tras visitar el enclave palestino.
“Vimos hombres esperar durante horas bajo el sol con la esperanza de hacerse con una simple comida”, agregó.
El lunes, 25 países pidieron poner fin a la guerra en el territorio palestino. “La guerra en Gaza debe cesar inmediatamente”, escribieron en un comunicado los ministros de Relaciones Exteriores de 25 naciones, entre ellas el Reino Unido, España, Italia, Portugal, Canadá y Francia.
Los ministros consideraron que “el sufrimiento de los civiles en Gaza ha alcanzado nuevos niveles” y denunciaron “el rechazo del gobierno israelí a proporcionar asistencia humanitaria esencial a la población civil”.
Los países firmantes son: Australia, Austria, Bélgica, Canadá, Dinamarca, Eslovenia, España, Estonia, Finlandia, Francia, Islandia, Irlanda, Italia, Japón, Letonia, Lituania, Luxemburgo, Países Bajos, Nueva Zelanda, Noruega, Polonia, Portugal, Suecia, Suiza y Reino Unido.
La declaración también fue firmada por la comisaria europea de Igualdad, Hadja Lahbib.

Flashback: Biden challenged to take pre-debate drug test in 2024; his son now makes Ambien claim

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Former President Joe Biden’s campaign dodged answering whether the president planned to take performance-enhancing drugs ahead of his debate against President Donald Trump just over a year ago, instead arguing that Trump and his campaign were spreading «desperate, obviously false lies» about the 46th president potentially taking drugs.
About one year after Biden’s ill-fated debate, former first son Hunter Biden claimed in a wild and expansive interview published Monday his dad’s poor debate performance was due to taking Ambien, a sedative-hypnotic typically used to treat insomnia.
«I know exactly what happened in that debate,» Hunter Biden said in the interview. «He flew around the world, basically, the mileage that he could have flown around the world, three times. He’s 81 years old. He’s tired as s—. They give him Ambien to be able to sleep.
«He gets up on the stage, and he looks like he’s a deer in the headlights,» Hunter added. «And it feeds into every f—ing story that anybody wants to tell.»
BIDEN AIDES PUSHED FOR EARLY DEBATE TO SHOW OFF BIDEN’S ‘STRENGTH,’ EXPOSE TRUMP’S ‘WEAKNESS,’ BOOK SAYS

On June 26, 2024, the day before the debate, Fox News Digital reached out to the Biden campaign inquiring if Biden had any plans to use performance-enhancing drugs for the debate, but staffers twice avoided a direct answer to the question.
At the time, Trump was leading a rising chorus, which included lawmakers, demanding that Biden take a drug test before the showdown. Those advocating a screening suggested Biden may have been motivated by a desire to quell mounting concerns about his mental acuity.
«Donald Trump is so scared of being held accountable for his toxic agenda of attacking reproductive freedom and cutting Social Security that he and his allies are resorting to desperate, obviously false lies,» a Biden campaign spokesperson told Fox News Digital the evening ahead of that 2024 debate.
When asked in a follow-up email for a «yes» or «no» response, the spokesperson said the original statement answered the question.
«The accusation from Trump on drugs is a desperate, obviously false lie,» the response said.
Ambien is a sedative that slows brain activity to help a person fall asleep and would not act as a performance-enhancing supplement for a public debate.

ONE YEAR LATER: HOW JOE BIDEN’S DISASTROUS DEBATE PERFORMANCE FORCED HIS MEDIA ALLIES TO TURN ON HIM
Joe Biden spent days preparing for the debate at Camp David in Maryland with videos of his public gaffes and missteps haunting the campaign in the days leading up to the debate. Trump, meanwhile, led the charge in demanding Biden take a drug test to prove he was not taking performance-enhancing supplements ahead of the highly anticipated event.
«DRUG TEST FOR CROOKED JOE BIDEN??? I WOULD, ALSO, IMMEDIATELY AGREE TO ONE!!!» Trump posted to Truth Social in the lead-up to the debate.
Fox News Digital also reached out to the White House and Trump campaign asking if Biden or Trump, respectively, planned to take performance-enhancing drugs ahead of the debate. The Biden White House did not respond at the time, while the Trump campaign responded.
«Absolutely not,» then-campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt told Fox News Digital at the time.
«President Trump has naturally elite stamina and doesn’t need performance-enhancing drugs, unlike Joe Biden, who many are saying will be drugged up for the debate like he was at the State of the Union,» Leavitt said at the time. «President Trump has repeatedly asked Joe Biden to participate in drug testing. What does Team Biden have to hide?»
BOOK REVEALS BIDEN ADVISORS DECLINED TO HAVE PRESIDENT TAKE A COGNITIVE TEST IN FEBRUARY 2024: REPORT
Hunter Biden’s recent explosive interview on «Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan,» released on YouTube, fanned the flames of Biden’s presidency and exit from the 2024 federal election amid ongoing accusations that Biden’s mental acuity had cratered during his Oval Office tenure.

Biden entered the re-election cycle already racked by claims and concerns that his mental acuity had slipped, and he was not mentally fit to continue serving as president, which was underscored by special counsel Robert Hur’s report in February 2024 that rejected criminal charges against Biden for possessing classified materials, saying he was «a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.»
Biden also brushed off accusations he was using any performance-enhancing supplements, including mocking Trump’s challenge that he take a drug test in an X post just before the debate showing him drinking a can of water.
«I don’t know what they’ve got in these performance enhancers, but I’m feeling pretty jacked up. Try it yourselves, folks. See you in a bit,» the X post said, accompanied by a photo of Biden drinking a can of water that said «Get real, Jack. It’s just water.»
The debate was an abject failure for Biden as he stumbled over his responses and appeared to lose his train of thought and slur words at times, opening the floodgates of criticism from longtime Democratic allies who called on Biden to drop out of the race and pass the torch to a younger generation to take on Trump.
A handful of former President Barack Obama’s allies and former advisors publicly helped lead the charge in calling on Biden to drop out of the 2024 race earlier in the summer, including David Axelrod, who said Biden was «not winning this race;» George Clooney, who called on the president to quit in a bombshell op-ed; and Jon Favreau, who served as former director of speech writing for Obama.
BIDEN CAMP DODGES ANSWERING IF PRESIDENT PLANS TO USE PERFORMANCE-ENHANCING DRUGS BEFORE DEBATE
Hunter Biden unleashed on the Democrats who turned their backs on his dad as he attempted to recover from the debate performance in his expletive-riddled interview Monday.
«F‑‑- you. What do you have to do with f‑‑‑ing anything? Why do I have to f‑‑‑ing listen to you? What right do you have to step on a man who’s given 52 years of his f‑‑‑ing life to the service of this country,» Hunter Biden said of Clooney.

«They’re all going to insert their judgment over a man who has figured out, unlike anybody else, how to get elected to the United States Senate over seven times … and how to garner more votes than any president that has ever won, and they’re going to replace their judgment for his?» he added, assailing other Biden allies who encouraged Joe Biden to drop out of the race.
