Soros-backed group behind Tesla unrest accused of ‘infiltrating’ key House race with chosen candidate

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The Progressive group «Indivisible,» which was behind many of the Tesla protests in recent months as well as mobilizing for other far-left causes, appears to now be getting involved in a key congressional swing district with the goal of growing resistance against President Donald Trump in Congress.
With primary races already underway for the 2026 Midterm elections, the group appears to have in their sights Rep. Mike Lawler, a Republican in a critical swing state representing New York’s 17th District, in the form of a candidate with extensive ties to the group, progressive Democrat and Rockland County legislator Beth Davidson.
Davidson’s social media presence includes several posts promoting Indivisible, including attending an event in June in Rockland, New York and Davidson was featured in a promotional video for Indivisible Northern Westchester that same month.
Indivisible has been front and center in other aspects of the race and local chapters of the group helped to organize protests at Lawler town hall events in April and May.

Fox News Digital reported on local Indivisible chapter leaders in Rockland planning an anti-Lawler protest in April. Footage obtained by Fox News Digital of the meeting showed organizing committee leader Pascale Jean-Gilles discussing filling the entire street in front of the event.
«It is a long street, and we’re trying to fill the entire street, so everyone coming into the rally will see people there and recognize it’s not going to be all, like, sunshine and daisies,» Jean-Gilles said.
Ahead of the event, Davidson indicated that over a thousand protesters would attend the demonstration, saying on X: «Please pass him a note that 1100 or so of his ‘friends’ are excited to see him in my county legislative district tomorrow!»
At another Indivisible protest against Lawler earlier in the month, Davidson posted on X that she was «proud to stand with more than a thousand people at the #HandsOff rally organized by @IndivisWstchr @1199seiu @nwindivisible@cwaunion and more to stand up for our freedoms and our future!»
«Mike Lawler may be silent on the daily assaults on healthcare, education, social security and national security, but We the People are NOT!» said Davidson.

Davidson congratulated Indivisible Rockland for a «packed event» in April 2025 after speaking at one of their events a month earlier, accusing Lawler of hiding from his constituents.
Bill Batson, a member of the Indivisible Rockland steering committee, gave $250 to Davidson’s campaign via his own campaign committee, FEC records show.
In response to Indivisible and Davidson’s apparent collaboration, National Republican Congressional Committee spokesperson Maureen O’Toole accused the group of «infiltrating» congressional races to undermine Trump’s agenda.
«Indivisible has a new plan: Stop shouting outside congressional offices and start infiltrating them,» said O’Toole. «Their first attempt? NY-17, where they’re backing far-left extremist Beth Davidson to carry out their agenda.»
Indivisible was founded in response to Trump’s election in 2016, according to its website. The group’s website says that they were «brought together by a practical guide to resist the Trump agenda, Indivisible is a movement of thousands of group leaders and more than a million members taking regular, iterative, and increasingly complex actions to resist the GOPs agenda, elect local champions, and fight for progressive policies.»

Indivisible’s presence at Tesla protests nationwide, according to a Washington Free Beacon report, included a «reimbursement program» for local activists that showed up at the protests.
Indivisible, a group that has received more than $7 million from the George Soros network since 2017, according to the New York Post, has also been involved in protests calling to «abolish» ICE.
The group has also promoted defunding the police.
Earlier this year, Indivisible published a «tool kit» with recommendations for protesting at town halls and lawmakers’ district offices. A section on how to «take the fight to Elon» includes steps for planning and executing a demonstration at Tesla dealerships, showrooms and factories for Elon Musk’s role as then-head of the Department of Government Efficiency.
While many of the protests outside Tesla dealerships were peaceful, the anti-Musk effort resulted in several instances of violence that the Department of Justice labeled «domestic terrorism», including acts of arson.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, Lawler campaign spokesperson Chris Russell, called Davidson’s association with Indivisible «disgraceful.»
«They’ve had Nazi imagery and antisemitic tropes at their rallies and promoted a baseless election denialism conspiracy theory rooted in antisemitism on their website. I’m demanding she denounce them immediately, this dangerous rhetoric will lead to more violence and threatens our democracy.»

Davidson condemned the imagery at the rally she attended in a post on X in March saying, «To be clear, I absolutely condemn the imagery of that poster. I will always be a voice against anti-Semitism and for my Jewish community. It’s time for Mike Lawler to stop weaponizing antisemitism for his own political gain and stop using the Jewish community — my community, not his — as political pawns.»
Lawler responded on X making the case that Davidson’s statement did not go far enough.

Fox News Digital reached out to the Davidson campaign for comment on this story.
Davidson has been endorsed by Mondaire Jones, a progressive who is the last Democrat to hold Lawler’s seat.
The race for NY-17 will be one of the most closely watched in the country as Republicans attempt to preserve their razor-thin majority in Congress, which historically has proven difficult for the party in power following a new president taking office.
The Cook Political Report ranks the race, where Davidson is one of several Democrats running in the primary, as «Lean Republican.»

Haití declaró el estado de emergencia en tres departamentos del país ante el recrudecimiento de la violencia pandillera

El gobierno de transición de Haití decretó este sábado el estado de emergencia en los departamentos de Oeste, Artibonito y Centro, en respuesta a un repunte significativo de la violencia criminal durante el segundo trimestre de 2025. Según datos oficiales y la Oficina de Derechos Humanos de las Naciones Unidas, al menos 1.500 personas han muerto y 600 han resultado heridas en el periodo señalado, mientras que más de 620 han sido secuestradas y al menos 239.000 ciudadanos han abandonado sus hogares a causa de la inseguridad.
La decisión, anunciada oficialmente por el Ejecutivo de transición, señala que tiene como objetivo “continuar la lucha contra la inseguridad y responder a la crisis agrícola y alimentaria”, y busca otorgar mayores medios y tiempo a las autoridades para restituir la seguridad y la paz en el territorio nacional.
La violencia de las pandillas se ha desplazado progresivamente desde la capital, Puerto Príncipe, hacia la región centro y en especial al departamento de Artibonito, el mayor del país y conocido como el “granero” nacional. El gobierno subraya las “consecuencias negativas de la violencia para la vida de los ciudadanos y para los sectores de actividad del país”. La región, fundamental para la producción de arroz, ha experimentado ataques que han forzado a los agricultores a abandonar sus campos y a desplazarse, situación que ha agravado la crisis agrícola y alimentaria nacional, según la ONU.
A finales de abril, decenas de personas se vieron obligadas a cruzar a pie y a nado el río más grande de Haití, en un esfuerzo por huir de la actividad de los grupos armados. Las autoridades describen una escalada de la violencia, con asesinatos sistemáticos, secuestros y desplazamientos masivos.
El viernes, la administración interina designó a André Jonas Vladimir Paraison como nuevo director general interino de la Policía Nacional de Haití (PNH), en reemplazo de Normil Rameau. Paraison fue jefe de seguridad del Palacio Nacional durante seis años y estuvo presente como agente policial durante el asesinato del presidente Jovenel Moïse en julio de 2021. La misión de Paraison es establecer un clima de seguridad que posibilite la celebración de elecciones previstas para febrero de 2026.
Paraison recalcó, en presencia del primer ministro Alix Didier Fils-Aime y el nuevo presidente del Consejo Presidencial de Transición (CPT), Laurent Saint-Cyr, la necesidad de “un gran plan de desarrollo para la PNH” y de “coherencia entre el plan nacional de desarrollo y el plan de seguridad de la Policía para ofrecer mejores resultados a la población”.

En la actualidad, las bandas armadas controlan hasta el 90% de la región metropolitana de Puerto Príncipe y han instalado controles en las carreteras hacia el interior del país.
Saint-Cyr instó al nuevo jefe policial a tomar “todas las medidas necesarias para restablecer la seguridad”, intensificar las operaciones en todos los frentes y liberar gradualmente los territorios ocupados por las bandas.
A pesar de la presencia de un contingente internacional liderado por Kenia y respaldado por la ONU, las operaciones para restablecer el orden han logrado algunos avances en la capital, pero no han conseguido contener la multiplicación de actividades de las pandillas en otras zonas. El Consejo Presidencial de Transición, establecido el año pasado, tiene como meta pacificar el país y organizar las primeras elecciones en una década.
La nueva estrategia del gobierno de transición tiene como prioridad restaurar la seguridad y responder lo antes posible a la emergencia alimentaria y humanitaria, con la expectativa de crear condiciones estables que permitan el proceso electoral y el retorno paulatino de los desplazados internos a sus comunidades de origen.

Local entrepreneur sounds alarm on local leaders over viral street attack: ‘Democrat monopoly’

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
CINCINNATI, OHIO – Southwest Ohio residents are expressing outrage at local leadership after a viral street fight in their backyard that captured the nation’s attention. One resident, a local political activist, told Fox News Digital a «Democrat monopoly» is partially to blame.
The Saturday night violence in downtown Cincinnati on July 26, which left a woman knocked unconscious on the street at the hands of a male assailant, was the result of a city that wasn’t «prepared» due to political ideology, Price Hill native Adam Koehler told Fox News Digital. He added that the response to the fight was «not leadership.»
«Leadership comes out and says, ‘Hey, we’ve got a problem. Here’s my solution to fix it,’» Koehler said. «But instead, they want to be cowardly and hide the fact that crime is actually happening.»
Cincinnati’s mayor and other local officials have faced heated criticism in recent days over the perception they are not taking crime seriously. One elected Democrat, Councilwoman Victoria Parks, posted on social media saying that the victims of the fight «begged for that beatdown.»

«This is a Democrat monopoly they’ve got here,» Koehler, an entrepreneur and former candidate for Hamilton County commissioner, told Fox News Digital. «So, I mean they can just pretty much do whatever they want. And a lot of that kind of rhetoric is excused, right? It’s, you know, past injustices and you know now I feel like I can say whatever I want and it’s excused. And luckily there are some city council members that denounced the words that Victoria Parks said, which is great, but you’ve got other people that just want to stoke the flames.»
Holly, the woman brutally knocked out and bruised in the attack, told Fox News this week she is yet to receive a phone call from the mayor or top officials «just apologizing for what happened and for letting these thugs and criminals run the streets when they should have been in jail to begin with.»
Koehler told Fox News Digital that Democrats running the city «have an agenda» and «want to look a certain way» and «ignore the problem.»
«It’s a lot of these ideologies that come out of the universities, right?» Koehler said. «Every generation thinks they figured something out about crime and they’re soft-hearted people, they wanted to do things, but, you know, policies like what Giuliani did in New York, those kind of things work.»

Koehler, who was speaking to Fox News Digital outside a GOP gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy town hall event on Cincinnati’s west side, said figures like Ramaswamy, Sen. Bernie Moreno, and Ohio native VP JD Vance are reasons to be optimistic about addressing the crime spike downtown.
«Those guys got power,» Koehler said. «I mean you start throwing the DOJ down here and start investigating some of the things that are happening, why wasn’t there more police there?»
Koehler added, «I mean there’s a lot of grifting that goes on whenever you have a one-party monopoly in any city. Obviously, you’re gonna have corruption. And it’s just, it’s festered here, and it’s culminated in what you see.»

Moreno said this week he is introducing «Holly’s Act,» a move aimed at ending what he calls the justice system’s revolving door for repeat offenders.
«Let’s be honest, because a lot of times you guys are qualifying this as a brawl,» Moreno told reporters. «This was attempted murder of an innocent woman. And that person had a rap sheet a mile long. Nobody who has that rap sheet should be walking the streets of any Ohio city free.»
