GUATEMALAN MIGRANT Charged: NYC Subway Murder Sparks Outrage

08 January 2025 — Sebastian Zapeta, a Guatemalan migrant, pleaded not guilty to murder and arson charges after allegedly setting a woman on fire in a Brooklyn subway. Prosecutors claim he watched as the victim burned while police and subway workers tried to put out the flames. Zapeta later expressed remorse, saying he was in a drunken blackout during the incident.

The 33-year-old faces one count of first-degree murder, three counts of second-degree murder, and arson. During his arraignment in Brooklyn, Zapeta listened through an interpreter but did not speak. His lawyer asked for medical attention for him without giving more details. The judge ordered him held without bail.

Authorities revealed that Zapeta entered the U.S. illegally in 2018 and was deported before returning at an unknown time. This case highlights ongoing concerns about illegal immigration and its potential consequences for public safety.

Conservative voices may see this as another example of why stricter border controls are necessary to protect American citizens from such tragic incidents.

TRAGIC ATTACK in Israeli Village: Three Innocents Murdered

06 January 2025 — Gunmen opened fire on vehicles, including a passenger bus, killing three people. The Magen David Adom rescue service confirmed the victims were two women in their 60s and a man in his 40s.

The Israeli military has sealed off villages in the area to hunt for suspects believed to have fled to a nearby Palestinian village. “Paramedics have confirmed the deaths,” stated Magen David Adom, while troops are actively “pursuing the terrorists” near Al-Funduq.

Palestinians have carried out many attacks against Israelis recently, including shootings and stabbings. Violence has surged in the West Bank since Hamas’s October 7, 2023 attack from Gaza escalated tensions as Israel fights for hostages’ return.

TRAGIC RISE: Migrant Deaths Soar in Deadly Channel Crossings

31 December 2024 — Three migrants lost their lives attempting to cross the Channel near Calais, France, highlighting the ongoing crisis. The French coastguard reported that 45 others received treatment on the beach, with four hospitalized. This brings the total number of migrant fatalities in the Channel this year to 77, marking it as the deadliest year since 2018.

Pierre-Henri Dumont, MP for Pas-de-Calais, warned about crossing in frigid waters. He emphasized that even a few minutes in such conditions can be fatal despite quick rescue responses. His comments come amid a record number of crossings during Christmas week, with over 1,485 migrants making it across from December 25th to 28th alone.

The surge over Christmas has pushed total crossings past 150,000 since tracking began in 2018. This year alone has seen over 36,000 illegal crossings compared to last year’s figure of just under 30,000. The left-wing Labour government under Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer pledged to curb these numbers by dismantling smuggling networks but has so far failed to deliver results as promised.

Since taking office in July, Starmer’s government has overseen more than 22,000 crossings — surpassing totals from previous years combined (2018-2020). Critics argue this reflects poorly

TRAGIC SPIKE: Migrant Deaths in Channel HIT Record High

30 December 2024 — Three migrants died trying to cross the Channel near Calais, according to the French coastguard. This tragedy adds to a growing number of fatalities this year, now reaching 77 as reported by the UN’s International Organization for Migration. Pas-de-Calais MP Pierre-Henri Dumont warned about the extreme dangers of these crossings, especially during winter.

The recent deaths spotlight a surge in illegal crossings over Christmas, with 1,485 migrants making it across from December 25th to 28th. This sets a record for any Christmas period since tracking began in 2018. The total number of crossings has now surpassed 150,000 since the crisis started.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour government promised to stop these illegal crossings by targeting people-smuggler gangs around the Channel. Despite these promises, over 22,000 migrants have crossed since they took office in July — more than all of 2018 through 2020 combined.

MIGRANT DEATHS in Channel Soar: A Tragic Record for 2024

29 December 2024 — Three migrants tragically died while trying to cross the Channel near Calais, France, highlighting the ongoing crisis. The French coastguard reported that 45 others were treated for hypothermia, with four hospitalized. This incident raises the total number of migrant deaths in the Channel this year to 77, making 2024 the deadliest year since the crisis began in 2018.

Pas-de-Calais MP Pierre-Henri Dumont warned about the extreme dangers of crossing during winter months. He stressed that even brief exposure to cold waters can be fatal despite quick rescue efforts. The recent surge saw a record-breaking 1,485 illegal crossings from December 25th to 28th alone.

The total number of illegal crossings has now surpassed 150,000 since tracking began in 2018. Over 36,000 migrants have crossed this year alone, up from last year’s figures of over 29,000.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party government promised to curb illegal crossings by dismantling smuggler networks but faces criticism for failing to deliver results since taking office in July. With over 22,000 crossings under their watch already exceeding previous years’ totals combined before their tenure began, public pressure mounts for effective action against this ongoing issue.

TRAGIC AIRLINE Disaster in South Korea: 176 Lives Lost

29 December 2024 — A Jeju Air flight skidded off the runway at Muan International Airport in South Korea, leading to a catastrophic crash. The disaster claimed 176 lives, including passengers and crew. This is among the deadliest aviation tragedies in the country’s history.

The National Fire Agency reported that malfunctioning landing gear caused the Boeing 737-800 to hit a concrete fence. The aircraft had 175 passengers and six crew members on board when it crashed Sunday morning local time.

Firefighters worked tirelessly to put out flames engulfing the plane after it veered off course at Muan International Airport, about 180 miles south of Seoul. Video footage captured nearby showed thick black smoke rising into the sky, underlining the severity of this tragic event.

TRAGIC Azerbaijan Airlines CRASH: Russia’s Alleged Role Exposed

26 December 2024 — An Azerbaijan Airlines flight tragically crashed near Aktau, Kazakhstan, resulting in over 30 deaths. The Embraer 190 jet was traveling from Azerbaijan to Russia with 62 passengers and five crew members on board. Kazakh authorities confirmed 38 fatalities and reported that 29 survivors were injured as of Wednesday afternoon.

The crash happened after the plane veered hundreds of miles off its planned route, crossing the Caspian Sea. Officials have not clarified why this deviation occurred, but it followed drone strikes in southern Russia that led to nearby airports closing temporarily. This disruption has affected flights in the region before.

Aviation-security firm Osprey Flight Solutions suggested that Russian military air-defense systems likely shot down the aircraft. Matt Borie from Osprey pointed to video evidence and regional security conditions supporting this theory. Ukrainian official Andriy Kovalenko also blamed a “Russian air-defense system” for the crash.

TRAGIC CHAOS: Car Attack at German Christmas Market Sparks Fear

21 December 2024 — A Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, turned tragic when a car plowed into a crowd, killing five and injuring over 200. Authorities suspect terrorism as they investigate the incident. Several victims remain in critical condition.

U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller condemned the event as an “attack,” expressing condolences and support for Germany. Cardinal Dolan offered words of hope, stating that “light will prevail” after this tragedy.

Magdeburg Police identified the suspect as a 50-year-old Saudi doctor believed to have acted alone. The driver reportedly covered 400 meters before police subdued him at gunpoint.

TRAGIC WISCONSIN School Shooting: Heartbreaking Loss and Heroic Response

17 December 2024 — A 15-year-old student opened fire at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin. The attack left a teacher and a teenager dead. It happened during study hall, prompting a quick police response after a second grader called 911. Six others were injured, with two students critically hurt.

The shooter, Natalie Rupnow, was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound and died on the way to the hospital. Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes stressed the lasting impact on everyone involved. “Every child, every person in that building is a victim,” he said.

Abundant Life Christian School has about 420 students from prekindergarten through high school. The school’s director mentioned that safety drills are usually announced but not this time. “When they heard “Lockdown, lockdown,” they knew it was real,” she explained.

GUN Evidence SHOCKS in United Healthcare CEO’S Tragic Murder

12 December 2024 — New York City police confirmed that the GUN found on Luigi Mangione matched shell casings at the crime scene of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s murder. Commissioner Jessica Tisch stated that Mangione’s fingerprints were also found on items near the midtown Manhattan site. Authorities think Mangione bought these items while waiting for his target.

Mangione, 26, is currently held without bail in Pennsylvania after being arrested on gun and forgery charges. Manhattan prosecutors are working to extradite him to New York to face a murder charge. His lawyer has urged against rushing to judgment as investigations continue into his motives and background.

Police suspect Mangione harbored resentment toward the healthcare industry, possibly linked to a back injury he sustained on July 4, 2023. Investigators are examining his social media posts showing X-rays of spinal screws and writings critical of corporate America and the U.S. healthcare system.

The case remains in its early stages as authorities piece together evidence and motive details.

ILLEGAL MIGRANT Surge: Labour’s Broken Promises Exposed

02 December 2024 — Since Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party took power on July 4th, over 20,110 ILLEGAL migrants have crossed the Channel into Britain. This figure marks a 15% increase compared to the same period last year under Tory leadership. The Home Office attributes this rise to favorable weather conditions rather than policy changes.

Leaked analysis suggests October and November saw the calmest Channel days since tracking began in 2018, facilitating crossings. During these months, 6,288 migrants arrived compared to just 768 last year. Despite weather explanations, the surge challenges Starmer’s government as he promised to combat illegal migration by targeting human trafficking networks legally.

The government plans to introduce new measures against illegal crossings but won’t include returning migrants to France, where international law suggests they should stay. This ongoing crisis strains public resources and highlights broader migration issues as legal net migration approaches one million annually in Britain.

UK Faces MIGRANT SURGE: Can the Government Handle the Crisis?

13 November 2024 — Between November 4th and 10th, over 1,800 ILLEGAL migrants crossed the Channel to Britain. These crossings happened in 30 boats run by smugglers from Calais. The PA News agency reports nearly 33,000 illegal crossings this year, a 22% rise from last year.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s efforts to tackle illegal migration faced setbacks with these arrivals. During a media blitz, Starmer announced £75 million to fight people smuggling gangs. He also promised to treat smugglers like terrorists and boost intelligence sharing with countries like Kosovo and Serbia.

Critics argue the government should take stronger action against illegal crossings. Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party suggests adopting Australia’s ‘turn-back-the-boats’ policy as a solution. This approach successfully curbed illegal migration under former Australian PM Tony Abbott’s leadership.

TRAGIC STABBING Spree at London Market Shocks Community

11 November 2024 — A stabbing spree at East Street Market in south London left one dead and two injured on Sunday morning. Police arrested a man in his 60s at the scene. While they have not shared details about the suspect or his motives, they do not believe it is terror-related, hinting that mental health issues might be involved.

Witnesses described a chaotic scene as the attacker randomly targeted people. An unnamed fabric seller said, “I just saw a bloke running through the market stabbing people willy-nilly.” The attack happened around 10:30 am when the market was getting busy.

The witness immediately called police after seeing two men stabbed, noting one appeared severely injured. Emergency services quickly arrived but sadly, one victim died from injuries despite their efforts.

The investigation continues as authorities work to understand what led to this tragic event and ensure community safety moving forward.

MIGRANT TRAGEDY: Heartbreaking Loss in the English Channel

06 October 2024 — Four migrants, including a 2-year-old child, died in two incidents while trying to cross the English Channel to Britain. French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau condemned the smugglers, stating they have “the blood of these people on their hands.” He promised intensified efforts against these criminal networks profiting from dangerous crossings.

The recent deaths add to a grim trend making 2024 one of the deadliest years for Channel crossings. Last month, 12 migrants perished when their boat broke apart. Two weeks later, another eight lives were lost in similar circumstances.

Pas-de-Calais prefect Jacques Billant reported that rescuers found the deceased child aboard a migrant boat that had called for help Saturday morning. Fourteen other migrants were rescued and returned to France for questioning by border police. A 17-year-old with leg burns was hospitalized in Boulogne-sur-Mer.

Some migrants refused rescue and continued toward Britain despite the risks involved. Billant criticized smuggling networks for endangering lives without regard for safety, particularly families with children, leading them into perilous situations and often death.

TRAGIC Accident: WELSH Man Dies in Freak Burger Mishap

23 September 2024 — British officials have determined that Barry Griffiths, 57, died after accidentally stabbing himself while separating frozen burgers. The tragic incident occurred in June 2023.

Griffiths, who lived in Llandrindod Wells, had reduced mobility in one arm due to a stroke. This likely contributed to the accident, according to coroner Patricia Morgan.

His body was discovered on July 4, 2023, after remaining in his apartment for several days. Limited social contact delayed the wellness check by police for over a week.

TRAGIC Migrant DEATHS in English Channel Demand Urgent Action

05 September 2024 — A day after 12 migrants died in the English Channel, dozens more tried the dangerous crossing from France to Britain. French patrol boats watched as a crowded vessel struggled through the seas. This incident shows the big problem facing both French and U.K. governments.

The mayor of Wimereux, Jean-Luc Dubaële, called for urgent action from French and British officials to stop more tragedies. “Smugglers keep sending people to their deaths,” he said. "It’s high time that a lasting solution is found with Britain.

Cross-Channel migration was a key issue in the recent U.K. general election, which saw Keir Starmer become prime minister. A French prosecutor revealed that 10 of the 12 dead were women and six were minors, many appearing to be Eritrean. The boat sank about three miles off the French coast with many aboard lacking life vests.

MIGRANT CROSSINGS Surge: Lives at Risk in English Channel Crisis

04 September 2024 — Migrants continue to risk their lives crossing the English Channel, highlighting a growing crisis for France and the U.K. This comes shortly after a tragic incident where a dozen migrants lost their lives. The mayor of Wimereux, Jean-Luc Dubaële, called for stronger action from both governments to address the issue.

Dubaële criticized the criminal networks smuggling people across the channel, labeling it “unacceptable” and “scandalous.” He emphasized that migrants are drawn to Britain rather than seeking asylum in France. He urged immediate discussions with Britain’s new government to find a lasting solution.

The issue of cross-Channel migration was pivotal in the recent U.K. general election, which saw Keir Starmer become prime minister after Labour’s victory. French maritime authorities confirmed an inflatable boat carrying 40 to 50 migrants was monitored by French patrols on Wednesday morning.

The overcrowded inflatable had people crammed side-by-side with some dangling their legs overboard. French patrol vessels were on standby to assist if needed, underscoring the ongoing risks and challenges of these perilous crossings.

TRAGIC Migrant DEATHS in English Channel: 12 Lives Lost

04 September 2024 — At least 12 migrants died when a smuggler’s boat broke up in the English Channel on Tuesday. Most of the victims were women and children, including one pregnant woman. The migrants were primarily from Eritrea, attempting to reach Britain.

French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin reported 12 dead, two missing, and several injured. This incident raises the death toll in the Channel to at least 31 this year. Over 21,000 people have crossed the Channel so far in 2023, surpassing last year’s rate.

Darmanin called for a migration treaty between the UK and EU to address illegal crossings and employment of migrants in poor conditions. He criticized Britain for not tackling its shadow economy that employs illegal migrants.

Former Conservative Home Secretary James Cleverly criticized Labour’s lack of action despite their promises to “smash the gangs.” New Home Secretary Yvette Cooper blamed traffickers for using unseaworthy boats and risking lives even in poor weather conditions.

SHOCKING ABUSE Claims at Migrant Children’s Shelter Exposed

19 July 2024 — The Justice Department has accused Southwest Key Programs Inc. employees of sexually abusing unaccompanied migrant children for at least eight years. The allegations include rape, solicitation of sex, and harassment. Two employees have been indicted since 2020.

Southwest Key operates 29 shelters across Texas, Arizona, and California with a capacity for over 6,300 children. The nonprofit received more than $3 billion in government contracts from 2015 to 2023.

The lawsuit claims some employees threatened children to keep them silent by exploiting their vulnerabilities and language barriers. Southwest Key disputes the allegations but is reviewing the complaint.

TRAGIC Migrant RESCUE in English Channel Exposes Border Crisis

13 July 2024 — Around 60 migrants were rescued by the French navy and coastguard from a capsized inflatable boat near Boulogne-sur-Mer. Four migrants were found unresponsive and could not be revived. The rescue operation is ongoing, with concerns that more victims may still be in the water.

The migrant crisis on Britain’s southern shore remains unresolved, contributing to the downfall of the previous British government. The new Labour government has promised action but has yet to deliver any meaningful results.

Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, criticized the new government for its inaction following the recent deaths in the Channel. He warned that he would hold them accountable just as he did with their predecessors.

People smugglers continue to exploit desperate migrants, leading to overcrowded and dangerous crossings. This year alone, 19 people have died attempting to cross the English Channel, while 14,000 have successfully made it across — a nearly 20% increase from last year.

FARAGE BLASTS Sunak: Migrant Crisis Threatens Election

25 June 2024 — With just over a week until the July 4th general election, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak faces criticism for failing to “stop the boats.” Populist challenger Nigel Farage filmed 45 migrants in a small dinghy entering British waters, escorted by the Border Force. This brings the total crossings to over 13,000 for 2024 and marks 50,000 since Sunak took office in 2022.

Farage has labeled this year’s vote as the “migration election,” arguing that Sunak’s government has failed to control illegal immigration. “Rishi can’t stop the boats,” Farage declared, emphasizing that migrant numbers have surged under Sunak’s leadership. He pointed out that during Boris Johnson’s tenure, although longer, fewer migrants crossed into Britain.

“The significance of this boat is that this number on this vessel takes it beyond 50,000 since Rishi became Prime Minister,” Farage told GB News from the Channel. He warned viewers not to underestimate the severity of the situation as it continues to worsen. The ongoing crisis highlights a key issue for voters as they head to the polls next week.

BIDEN’S Border Failure: Communities Suffer Amid Migrant Surge

19 June 2024 — President Biden’s border policy is under scrutiny as a new wave of migrants arrives at the southern border. Border Patrol agents report an unprecedented surge, straining resources and personnel.

Republican leaders criticize the administration for what they call a “failed approach” to immigration. Texas Governor Greg Abbott stated, “The federal government must take immediate action to secure our borders.”

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas insists the administration is handling the situation effectively. However, many conservatives argue that current policies encourage illegal crossings.

The debate over border security continues to heat up as communities near the border feel the impact. Calls for stricter enforcement and policy changes grow louder from Republican lawmakers and citizens alike.

BIDEN’S Border Policy Disaster: Record Migrant Surge Sparks Outrage

17 June 2024 — The Biden administration’s border policies are facing renewed scrutiny as record numbers of migrants overwhelm U.S. border facilities. Critics argue that the administration’s lenient stance has encouraged illegal crossings, leading to chaos and insecurity.

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported over 250,000 encounters in September alone, a historic high. This surge has strained resources and raised concerns about national security and public safety.

Republican lawmakers are calling for immediate action to secure the border. “Our communities are at risk,” said Senator Ted Cruz, emphasizing the need for stricter enforcement measures.

The White House has yet to present a concrete plan to address this crisis, leaving many Americans frustrated. As the situation deteriorates, calls for accountability continue to grow louder.

NETANYAHU ADMITS "Tragic Mistake" In Israeli Strike: Outrage Grows

29 May 2024 — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu admitted a “tragic mistake” in an Israeli strike on Rafah, Gaza, that killed at least 45 displaced Palestinians. This incident has intensified international criticism of Israel’s war with Hamas. Even Israel’s closest allies have expressed outrage over the civilian deaths.

Israel claims adherence to international law but faces scrutiny from global courts, one of which demanded a halt to the Rafah offensive last week. The military initially reported targeting a Hamas compound and killing two senior militants but later opened an investigation into civilian deaths as more details emerged.

Sunday night’s attack is among the deadliest in the conflict, pushing the Palestinian death toll above 36,000 according to Gaza Health Ministry figures. Netanyahu assured that Israel is investigating and will conclude how this error occurred as part of its policy to avoid harming civilians.

Mohammed Abuassa described rescuers pulling out people in horrific conditions from the camp fire aftermath in Tel al-Sultan neighborhood. “We pulled out children who were in pieces,” he said, highlighting the devastating impact on both young and elderly victims alike.

US Squatting Laws EXPLOITED: Migrant ‘Influencer’ PUSHES Illegal Home Seizures

05 April 2024 — Squatting laws in the United States are increasingly manipulated by fraudsters unlawfully occupying empty homes. This problem is projected to escalate due to the current immigration crisis, as migrants gain knowledge of these laws and exploit them.

Leonel Moreno, a Venezuelan national apprehended by Immigration and Customs Enforcement last week, had been urging his TikTok followers, numbering in the millions, to commandeer vacant U.S. homes. Before his arrest, Moreno was raking in $1,000 per day as an influencer while also benefiting from $350 monthly government subsidies.

The regulations on squatters vary across states and cities with New York City being among those with the most lax rules. These laws have recently resulted in significant repercussions including a Queens homeowner’s arrest for attempting to remove squatters from her property — a clear sign that these laws continue to be exploited even after Moreno’s TikTok account has been deactivated.

Recent incidents involving deceptive squatters in New York City and Long Island underscore the potential for abuse of these laws. Last month saw a woman tragically killed by squatters occupying her mother’s apartment while another instance involved two individuals unlawfully residing in an abandoned Long Island home after forging the deceased owner’s signature on a lease.

CLARKE COUNTY Sheriff Concedes: ICE Policy ‘Needs Improvement’ Following Student’S Tragic Death

07 March 2024 — The Clarke County Sheriff’s Office has conceded that its policy on declining Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainer requests for undocumented immigrants “needs improvement”. This admission follows the murder of Augusta University nursing student, Laken Riley. The 22-year-old was allegedly slain by an undocumented immigrant from Venezuela on the University of Georgia campus.

Sheriff John Williams, who ran his campaign on a platform of non-cooperation with ICE detainers, issued a statement in response to the public outcry. In 2018, his office altered its policy regarding foreign nationals booked into jail. This resulted in a refusal to hold inmates based solely on ICE detainers unless there was a judge-signed order. The change was influenced by public feedback, best practices review, relevant case law and legal advice.

Although Clarke County Sheriff’s Office is required by law to inform ICE when someone suspected or known to be a foreign national is booked into jail, holding someone solely based on an ICE detainer is seen as a warrantless arrest unless there’s a court order or warrant signed by a judge. Despite recent controversy and events, Sheriff Williams has upheld this policy since assuming office in 2021.

The brother of Laken Riley’s alleged murderer is reportedly connected to Venezuelan crime gangs. There are concerns within the FBI that members

ASYLUM-SEEKER Convicted: The Tragic Consequence of a Dangerous English Channel Crossing

19 February 2024 — On Monday, Ibrahima Bah, an asylum-seeker from Senegal, was convicted of manslaughter. He was at the helm of an inflatable dinghy that carried more than 40 migrants from France to the U.K. The vessel capsized tragically resulting in four fatalities.

The prosecutors maintained that the dinghy was unfit for such a journey due to severe overcrowding and lack of safety equipment. Despite the glaring risks and its deteriorating condition as it began taking on water, Bah persisted towards U.K. waters.

Bah did not pay for his passage because he piloted the boat himself. The jury found him guilty on four counts of manslaughter and aiding illegal entry into the U.K.

This incident has added more controversy to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s contentious plan to deport migrants to Rwanda amidst ongoing criticism.

Denver’s MAYOR ATTACKS Republicans, Declares Service Cutbacks Amid Migrant Crisis

12 February 2024 — Mayor Mike Johnston (D-CO) has openly chastised Republican leadership for obstructing a migration deal proposed by Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY). This agreement would have permitted a large influx of migrants and allocated $5 billion for their resettlement across various cities and towns. Having already assisted 35,000 undocumented migrants, Johnston labeled the blocked deal as a “plan for shared sacrifice”.

Following the failure of this deal, Johnston declared that Denver will need to implement budget cuts to cover the costs associated with incoming migrants. He pointed fingers at Republicans for these reductions, asserting that their refusal to approve regime change will strain city budgets and services offered to newcomers. The mayor cautioned that more cutbacks are on the horizon.

The Congressional Budget Office highlighted in February that such migration policies redirect family wages and workplace investment towards Wall Street and government sectors while shifting attention away from American communities. In Denver specifically, an influx of impoverished migrants resulted in 20,000 hospital visits which led to a partial shutdown of a city hospital earlier this year.

Johnston’s announcement included service reductions at the DMV and Park & Recs departments with the aim of freeing up resources for undocumented immigrants. This decision has sparked criticism as it directly affects services available to Denver residents.

NYC Police UNLEASHED: Crackdown on Migrant Robbery Ring Reveals Shocking Details

06 February 2024 — New York City police have launched an aggressive campaign against property crime. This follows a successful raid on a migrant robbery ring with connections to Venezuela. The group had been using powered scooters as part of their criminal operations.

During a news briefing, NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban clarified that the recent surge in migrant crime does not reflect the majority of individuals migrating to New York for improved living conditions. He characterized the gang members as 'ghosts’ — undocumented immigrants with no traceable digital footprints or sometimes even known identities.

In connection with this robbery ring, the NYPD has named eight suspects at a news briefing: Victor Parra, alleged mastermind, and Cleyber Andrada, Juan Uzcatgui, Yan Jimenez, Anthony Ramos, Richard Saledo, Beike Jimenez and Maria Manaura. As per police reports, Parra would issue requests for specific phone models he desired and orchestrate robbers across New York who may not have known each other for burglary missions.

ROCHESTER’S Horrific Start: Tragic Car Explosion Claims Three Lives on New Year’s Day

02 January 2024 — The dawn of 2024 was tainted with a grisly incident in Rochester, New York. A Ford Expedition, laden with gas canisters, collided with a Mitsubishi Outlander, resulting in the death of three individuals and injuring several others.

The fatal accident occurred at 12:50 a.m. on January 1st near the iconic Kodak Theater. The driver of the Ford was identified as Michael Avery, a Syracuse resident aged 35 years. He later succumbed to his injuries at the hospital.

Avery’s family revealed to investigators that he might have been grappling with undiagnosed mental health issues. The collision ignited an intense fire that took firefighters an hour to subdue.

The Outlander’s two occupants met their untimely end at the scene while Avery breathed his last later in hospital care.

US-Israeli Citizen’s TRAGIC Death: BIDEN’S Heartfelt Response to Hamas Attack

22 December 2023 — On Friday, President Joe Biden extended his condolences following the death of Gad Haggai, a dual US-Israeli citizen. It is believed that Haggai fell victim to Hamas during their initial terrorist attack on October 7.

Biden expressed deep sadness over the incident, stating, “Jill and I are heartbroken... We continue to pray for the well-being and safe return of his wife, Judy.” He further revealed that the couple’s daughter was part of a recent conference call with families of hostages.

Referring to their experiences as a “harrowing ordeal”, Biden reassured these families and other loved ones. He pledged that efforts to rescue those still held hostage would persist. This story is still unfolding.

BIDEN Administration’s SHOCKING U-Turn: Venezuelan Deportations to Resume Amid Rising Migrant Numbers

06 October 2023 — The Biden administration has recently declared its intention to recommence the deportation of Venezuelan migrants. These individuals represent the largest single group encountered at the U.S.-Mexico border last month. The decision comes as their numbers continue to swell.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has referred to this new measure as one of the “strict consequences” being enforced in conjunction with expanding legal avenues for asylum seekers.

Speaking in Mexico City, Mayorkas mentioned that both nations are grappling with an unparalleled level of migration throughout their hemisphere. Two U.S. officials, who wished to remain anonymous, have confirmed that repatriation flights are slated to commence soon.

This action follows a recent surge in protected status for thousands of Venezuelans who arrived in the U.S before July 31 this year. However, addressing this discrepancy between expanding protections and resuming deportations, Mayorkas clarified that it is considered safe to return Venezuelan nationals who arrived after July 31 and lack a legal basis for staying here.
