WASHINGTON — The Trump administration, still somehow running the show, just dropped the hammer on a bunch of self-righteous activists trying to run a 'humanitarian' flotilla to Gaza. Translation: they were trying to deliver a pat on the back and a few boxes of expired granola bars to Hamas. Turns out, supporting terrorists isn't exactly kosher, even if you wrap it in a rainbow flag and claim it's for 'social justice.'

These sanctions, courtesy of the Treasury and State Departments, are aimed at the usual suspects: organizers of the flotilla, the 'anti-Israel' activists at Samidoun (apparently a PFLP fan club), and some shady characters from the Muslim Brotherhood. You know, the folks who think Sharia law is a great idea for America. Bless their hearts.

The Israeli navy, God bless 'em, intercepted the flotilla before it could reach Gaza and unleash its cargo of virtue-signaling, gluten-free snacks and questionable intentions. The activists are crying foul, but let's be real: this was a political stunt disguised as charity. No one actually believes they were just trying to help poor Gazans. Please.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called the whole thing a “ludicrous attempt to undermine President Trump’s successful progress toward lasting peace in the region.” Accurate. It's hard to build peace when you're simultaneously handing out participation trophies to terrorists.

Among the usual suspects enabling this clown show are CodePink and the People's Forum, funded by a certain Neville Roy Singham, a Marxist living in Shanghai. That's right, the CCP is bankrolling anti-Israel activism in America. Makes you think, doesn't it?

CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin is already screeching about Israel being a 'pariah state' for daring to stop their little terrorist-supporting cruise. Honey, maybe if you didn't hang out with Hamas, people would take you seriously. Just a thought.

These sanctions are a welcome reminder that America isn't completely brain-dead. There are still people in power who recognize that supporting terrorists, even indirectly, is a bad look. It's time to stop enabling these virtue-signaling clowns and start holding them accountable for their actions. Drain the swamp, indeed.

So, next time you see a headline about a 'humanitarian' flotilla to Gaza, remember this: it's not about helping people. It's about hating Israel and empowering terrorists. And thanks to the Trump administration, it just got a little harder for them to pull it off.
