DIDDY INDICTED: Music Mogul’s Dark Secrets Exposed

17 September 2024 — Sean “Diddy” Combs faces serious charges of sexual crimes and abuse, according to an indictment unsealed Tuesday. The music mogul allegedly coerced and abused women for years, using threats and a network of aides to cover up his actions.

Combs is accused of engaging in physical violence and drugging victims for prolonged sexual performances called “Freak Offs.” The indictment also mentions a video-recorded attack on his ex-girlfriend, singer Cassie.

Federal authorities arrested Combs in Manhattan after raiding his homes in Los Angeles and Miami as part of a sex trafficking investigation. His lawyer stated that Combs will plead not guilty and is confident about fighting the charges.

The 54-year-old founder of Bad Boy Records is described as leading a criminal enterprise involved in sex trafficking, forced labor, drug offenses, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice. He allegedly used violence against women and enlisted staff to help conceal his crimes.

INFAMOUS French Serial Killer Charles Sobhraj WALKS Free

15 September 2024 — Charles Sobhraj, the infamous French serial killer known for murdering at least a dozen Western tourists in Asia during the 1970s, is now free. He recently shared his story in a televised interview. “He likes to have the attention put on him,” said retired detective Jackie Malton.

Sobhraj, 80, is believed to have killed at least 20 people across Afghanistan, India, Thailand, Turkey, Nepal, Iran and Hong Kong. He earned the nickname “bikini killer” due to his ruthless methods and lack of empathy.

In 2004, Sobhraj was sentenced to life in prison in Nepal for killing American tourist Connie Jo Bronzich in 1975. A decade later, he was also found guilty of killing her Canadian companion Laurent Carrière.

GEORGIA High School SHOOTING: Heartbroken Mother Begs for Forgiveness

12 September 2024 — The mother of the 14-year-old suspect in the Winder, Georgia, high school shooting has issued an apology. Marcee Gray expressed her sorrow to the victims’ families in an open letter provided to CNN.

I am so sorry from the bottom of my heart," wrote Marcee Gray, 43. Her son Colt Gray allegedly killed two students and two teachers at Apalachee High School last week. Seven others were injured by gunfire, and two suffered other injuries.

Victims included Richard Aspinwall, 39, Cristina Irimie, 53, Mason Schermerhorn, and Christian Angulo, both 14. “If I could take their place, I would without a second thought,” Marcee Gray stated in her letter. She also mourned for the teachers who died protecting students.

Harris’s SHIFTING Fracking Stance ALARMS Conservatives

10 September 2024 — Co-host John Roberts aired a clip of Bernie Sanders saying Kamala Harris is being pragmatic to win the election, despite her past views. Roberts then questioned if Harris would revert to opposing fracking if elected.

Philippe Reines responded by suggesting that Sanders’ comments reflect Harris’s current stance on fracking, even though she previously opposed it. He emphasized that candidates often change their positions based on electoral needs and context.

Reines believes Harris is aligning with President Biden’s record to gain support from undecided voters. He expressed confidence in this strategy as a winning approach for the election.

SUGAR DADDY Website TIP Leads to Murder Suspect Arrest

08 September 2024 — Texas authorities tracked down a suspect in the murder of a 21-year-old nursing student after a tipster recognized him from his profile on a “Sugar Daddy” website.

Muna Pandey, a Nepalese nursing student at Houston Community College, was found dead with gunshot wounds in her Houston apartment on August 26. A neighbor reported hearing a “loud thump” from her apartment on August 24, the last day she was seen alive. An unknown male called the building manager to report the body before quickly hanging up.

Houston Police arrested 51-year-old Bobby Singh Shah on capital murder charges two days later. The arrest followed a tip that identified Shah through his online profile, leading to swift police action.

CIA and MI6 Chiefs WARN: Global Threats Looming

08 September 2024 — The heads of the CIA and MI6 have issued a stark warning about global threats. They highlighted the war in Ukraine, sabotage in Europe, and rising tensions with China. “We saw the war in Ukraine coming,” they stated, emphasizing their role in alerting the international community.

They are actively working to disrupt Russia’s sabotage campaigns across Europe and address escalating conflicts like the Israel-Gaza situation. Counterterrorism efforts against ISIS are also a priority. The intelligence chiefs stressed that global stability is under threat like never before since the Cold War.

China’s rise is identified as the main geopolitical challenge of this century, prompting both agencies to reorganize their priorities accordingly. Russian intelligence activities were described as reckless, with recent incidents of sabotage and arson attacks on infrastructure in Europe being attributed to Moscow’s covert operations.;

TEEN SHOOTER Kills Four in Georgia School Tragedy

05 September 2024 — A 14-year-old boy opened fire at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, killing four and wounding nine. The victims include two students and two teachers.

The shooter, armed with an assault-style rifle, targeted students in a hallway after being denied re-entry to his algebra class. He has been charged as an adult.

Nine injured individuals were taken to hospitals and are expected to survive. The teen will be held at a regional youth detention facility starting Thursday.

TEENS’ SHOCKING Plea Deal in Las Vegas Beating Death

04 September 2024 — Four Las Vegas teenagers pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter in the fatal beating of their high school classmate. The plea deal keeps them from being tried as adults. The attack on 17-year-old Jonathan Lewis Jr. was captured on video and widely shared on social media.

The teens were initially charged with second-degree murder and conspiracy but will now face time in a juvenile detention center for an undetermined period. In Clark County, minors are released after completing rehabilitation programs rather than serving traditional jail sentences, according to Brigid Duffy of the district attorney’s office.

Defense lawyer Robert Draskovich called the plea deal “a very fair resolution.” However, Lewis’ mother, Mellisa Ready, disagreed strongly with the outcome, stating that there is no true punishment for her son’s murder and calling it “disgusting.”

FIVE SHOT at NYC Parade: Police Hunt Gunman in Brooklyn

03 September 2024 — Five people were shot at the West Indian American Day Parade in Brooklyn on Monday. NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell confirmed that a gunman targeted a specific group around 2:35 p.m.

Two victims are critically wounded, while three others are expected to survive. The shooter fled the scene, and police have cordoned off the area for investigation.

Chief Chell emphasized that this was an intentional act and not a random shooting spree. He urged bystanders to provide any video footage they might have of the incident.

NO CHARGES for Pulse Nightclub Owners: Families Outraged

29 August 2024 — The Orlando Police Department has closed its investigation into the former owners of Pulse nightclub without filing any charges. Victims’ families and survivors had requested the probe, alleging criminal culpability. Police found no probable cause for involuntary manslaughter by culpable negligence.

About two dozen people, mostly survivors and family members of those who died in the 2016 shooting, gave statements to investigators. They cited issues like unavailable building plans, unpermitted renovations, and possible overcapacity at the club. Despite these claims, investigators concluded that these factors did not impede rescuers or contribute to the tragedy.

Investigators were unable to interview former owners Barbara and Rosario Poma but determined their actions didn’t show reckless disregard for human life. The report stated they couldn’t have reasonably anticipated a terrorist attack at Pulse nightclub.

A spokesperson for the Pomas declined to comment on Wednesday. On Facebook, Pulse Families and Survivors for Justice called the investigation a “sham.” The police report emphasized too many unknowns about how gunman Omar Mateen entered the club that night.

ISRAEL WARNS of Iranian Aggression Amid US Cease-Fire Talks

27 August 2024 — Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant warned that “Iran’s aggression has reached an all-time high” during a meeting with U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Charles Q. Brown on Monday. Gallant emphasized the need for cooperation to counter threats from Iran-backed Hamas and Hezbollah, highlighting Israel’s strategic position. The meeting also included IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi and took place in Tel Aviv.

Despite U.S.-led efforts to broker a cease-fire deal with Hamas, no agreement has been reached as long as Israeli forces remain in Gaza security corridors. Gallant reiterated Israel’s goals: dismantling Hamas, securing the return of hostages taken on Oct. 7, and improving security along the northern border for community safety.

Since Oct. 7, the conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with Gaza’s Health Ministry claiming around 40,000 Palestinian deaths without distinguishing between civilians and terrorists killed by Israeli forces since then have also suffered losses: nearly 700 soldiers and about 1,200 civilians have been killed following Hamas attacks on Israel

TRUMP RALLY Draws Huge Crowd In Arizona: Supporters Ecstatic

24 August 2024 — Videos and pictures on social media show the arena, which holds 18,000 people, nearly full ahead of former President Donald Trump’s speech at the Turning Point Action rally. Supporters lined up for miles hoping to gain entry.

The venue previously hosted an event by Harris earlier this month, drawing a crowd of 15,000. The Trump rally comes shortly after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the suspension of his presidential campaign and urged blue state residents to vote for him while supporting Trump in battleground states.

Trump hinted at a “special guest” for the rally on Truth Social, leading many to speculate that it could be Kennedy. “Heading to Arizona where I will soon be speaking at Turning Point — BIG CROWD, AND EVEN BIGGER SURPRISE!” he posted.

ROBERT F Kennedy JR Shocks Nation: Endorses Trump

24 August 2024 — Robert F. Kennedy Jr. suspended his presidential campaign on Friday and endorsed Republican nominee Donald Trump. Speaking in Arizona, Kennedy expressed concerns that continuing his campaign would aid Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

Kennedy’s support had declined in recent polls as he struggled to find his place in a race reshaped by President Joe Biden’s exit and Harris’ nomination. Recent polls showed Kennedy’s support hovering in the mid-single digits, far from earlier double-digit figures.

A July AP-NORC poll revealed Americans were split on their views of Kennedy, with Republicans more likely to view him favorably than Democrats or independents. Those with a positive impression of Kennedy also tended to favor Trump over Harris by a significant margin.

TOP FEDERAL Prosecutor Caught In Shocking Drunken HIT-And-RUN

22 August 2024 — A top federal narcotics prosecutor, Joseph Ruddy, violated ethics rules during a hit-and-run investigation last year. Ruddy, visibly intoxicated, handed his business card to Florida police officers after crashing into another vehicle and fleeing the scene. The Justice Department’s Office of Inspector General confirmed he misused his position as an assistant U.S. attorney in Tampa.

Body-camera footage from the Fourth of July incident shows Ruddy struggling to stand and slurring his words while leaning on his pickup truck for balance. Despite his condition, he presented his Justice Department credentials to officers from two jurisdictions investigating the crash. A Tampa police officer warned him that the footage would not look good when reviewed later.

The Justice Department’s report found that Ruddy engaged in conduct prejudicial to the government by driving drunk and leaving the scene of an accident. The case has been referred to the Professional Misconduct Review Unit for further action.

Although removed from several cases following inquiries about his status, Ruddy remains an assistant U.S. attorney as of Wednesday. Neither he nor his attorney has responded to requests for comment on this matter.

CHICAGO On EDGE: Violence Fears Loom Over Democratic Convention

20 August 2024 — Federal, state, and local authorities are working to minimize violence during the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The Chicago Police Department, Secret Service, and other agencies have been planning for months. They aim to prevent demonstrations from turning violent.

Police Superintendent Larry Snelling emphasized the success of the 1996 convention when Bill Clinton was nominated for a second term. He noted that Chicago has hosted more major party conventions than any other city. However, the 1968 convention remains infamous due to large-scale protests against the Vietnam War.

The first anti-Israel demonstration is scheduled for Monday at Union Park, near the United Center. In 1968, anti-war protesters violently confronted police and National Guardsmen outside the convention hall. Vice President Kamala Harris’s nomination parallels Hubert Humphrey’s in 1968 as both assumed their roles without winning primary support.

COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY President Quits Amid Campus Chaos

15 August 2024 — Columbia University President Minouche Shafik resigned Wednesday after a brief, tumultuous tenure. Her resignation follows heavy scrutiny over her handling of protests and campus divisions related to the Israel-Hamas war. The Ivy League school faced intense student demonstrations, leading to police intervention and clashes.

The announcement comes days after three Columbia University Deans resigned for exchanging disparaging texts about Jewish life and antisemitism. Shafik was criticized by Republicans in Congress for not adequately addressing antisemitism concerns on campus. She began her role in July last year but announced her resignation just weeks before the new semester starts on Sept. 3.

In an emailed letter, Shafik mentioned progress in important areas but admitted it was difficult to overcome divergent views within the community. She cited the toll on her family as a reason for stepping down, believing it would help Columbia navigate future challenges better. The university has started restricting campus access to curb potential disruptions as classes resume soon.

MICHAEL RAPAPORT Shocks Fans: Admits Trump Was Right on Israel and Economy

05 August 2024 — Actor Michael Rapaport, known for his harsh criticism of Donald Trump, has recently changed his tune on two key issues. Speaking on Sage Steele’s podcast, Rapaport admitted he was wrong about Trump’s handling of the economy and Israel.

Rapaport had previously called Trump derogatory names and criticized him daily. However, he now acknowledges that Trump supported Israel effectively and weakened Iran’s terror financing capabilities.

“I was wrong,” Rapaport confessed, noting that while he still dislikes some of Trump’s behavior, he can’t deny the positive outcomes in these areas. This admission marks a significant shift in Rapaport’s stance on the former president.

ISRAEL ELIMINATES Hamas Leader in Iran: What It Means for Peace

31 July 2024 — Haniyeh was killed in Iran on Tuesday, with Israeli intelligence widely attributed to the operation. No public claim of responsibility has been made. Haniyeh had lived lavishly in Qatar, funded by international aid meant for Palestinians.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken denied U.S. involvement in Haniyeh’s death during an interview with Channel News Asia in Singapore. He emphasized that ceasefire talks in Gaza would continue despite the incident.

Blinken stated it was difficult to predict how Haniyeh’s death would impact negotiations but stressed the importance of ending Palestinian suffering and securing the release of hostages, including Americans.

He added that preventing the Gaza conflict from spreading is a top priority for the administration. Blinken believes a ceasefire is crucial to lowering tensions and achieving lasting peace and security in the region.

BIDEN DEMANDS Supreme Court Shake-UP: Sparks Intense Debate

29 July 2024 — President Biden has called for major changes to the Supreme Court, sparking a heated debate. Co-host Jonathan Lemire discussed the topic with Senator Cory Booker, who downplayed the extent of the proposed reforms.

Booker argued that these changes are practical and have bipartisan support. He emphasized that the highest court should not have low ethics standards, pointing out that right-wing billionaires are giving lavish gifts to justices with cases before the court.

Booker also supported term limits for justices, similar to other major democracies. He stressed that courts should not be influenced by financial gifts from interested parties as this undermines democracy and delegitimizes institutions.

NEBRASKA COURT Upholds Abortion And Gender Care BAN: Aclu Loses Fight

26 July 2024 — Nebraska’s LB574, combining the Let Them Grow Act and Preborn Child Protection Act, was upheld by the state’s highest court. The bill initially faced a filibuster but was revised to include a ban on gender-affirming treatment for children. The ACLU sued, claiming it violated the single-subject rule, but the court disagreed.

Chief Justice Mike Heavican stated that both abortion and sex-change procedures fall under medical care, satisfying the single-subject requirement. He emphasized that as long as a bill has one general objective and its title reflects its content, it does not violate constitutional rules.

Justice Lindsey Miller-Lerman dissented strongly, accusing the majority of hypocrisy based on a 2020 ruling against medical marijuana legalization for violating the same rule. ACLU attorney Matt Segal argued that abortion and transgender care were separate issues until combined out of necessity by legislators.

DEA AGENTS’ Shocking "World Debauchery Tour" Exposed

25 July 2024 — A WhatsApp chat among DEA agents revealed a shocking “world debauchery tour” involving “boozing and whoring” on taxpayer money. They shared lurid images and joked about serious crimes. The arrest of George Zoumberos in 2018 for allegedly forcing anal sex on a woman in Madrid highlighted the issue.

Despite the severity, U.S. officials barely investigated the woman’s claims. The DEA has long avoided discussing this case, only stating that such misconduct is unacceptable. Thousands of secret documents obtained by AP show a culture of corruption within the agency.

Zoumberos claimed the interaction was consensual and was released after U.S. Embassy intervention. A Spanish judge dismissed the case due to insufficient evidence, and Zoumberos returned to duty with just a reprimand for “poor judgment.” The woman maintains she clearly refused his advances.

This scandal raises serious questions about accountability within federal agencies tasked with enforcing drug laws globally. Taxpayers deserve transparency and integrity from those entrusted with such significant responsibilities.;

SECURITY FAILURES at Trump Rally Spark Outrage

24 July 2024 — Two local law enforcement officers left their post to search for a suspicious man before the shooting at former President Donald Trump’s rally. This decision raises questions about whether a key position was left unattended as the shooter climbed onto a roof.

Pennsylvania State Police Col. Christopher Paris testified that the officers were stationed at a second-floor window with a clear view of the roof where Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire. Paris admitted uncertainty about whether staying at their post would have allowed them to see Crooks climbing onto the adjacent building’s roof.

The testimony before the House Homeland Security Committee sheds light on security preparations for Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, but also highlights potential lapses in law enforcement decisions. The Butler County District Attorney and Secret Service have not responded to requests for comments on who ordered the officers to leave their post.

The incident has sparked growing concerns over multiple security failures that enabled Crooks to fire eight shots into the crowd, resulting in one death and two injuries. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned after being criticized by lawmakers for what she called the agency’s “most significant operational failure” in decades.

CONGRESS BLOCKED From Trump Rally Security Report

19 July 2024 — Congress was blocked from accessing the crucial Ops Report detailing the protection plan for former President Trump’s rally, a lawmaker revealed to Fox News Digital. The report should explain who was responsible for securing the rooftop from which Thomas Matthew Crooks fired.

Paul Mauro, an attorney and retired NYPD inspector, stated that if the Ops Plan did not cover that rooftop or wasn’t done at all, it represents a significant failure by whoever approved it. Mauro confirmed that as of Thursday afternoon, the FBI held the detailed written plan based on information from a highly trusted source.

The FBI declined to comment on the matter. Despite several reported sightings of Crooks an hour before he opened fire in Butler, Pennsylvania, he managed to slip through security cracks. One of his bullets grazed Trump’s ear and could have been fatal if Trump hadn’t moved his head at that moment.

IRANIAN DRONE Strike In TEL Aviv Kills ONE Near US Embassy

19 July 2024 — An Iranian-made drone sent by Yemen’s Houthi rebels struck Tel Aviv on Friday, killing one person and injuring at least 10 others. The attack occurred near the U.S. Embassy, causing shrapnel and glass to rain down over a large area.

Israel’s military believes the drone was an upgraded Samad-3 from Iran, launched from Yemen. Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari stated that an investigation is ongoing to determine the origin of the threat and appropriate responses.

The Houthis claimed responsibility for the strike, calling it retaliation for Israel’s war with Hamas. Until now, Israel and its Western allies had intercepted all previous Houthi drones and missiles aimed at Israel during this conflict.

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.

SENATOR Menendez CONVICTED: Corruption Verdict Shocks Nation

16 July 2024 — U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez was convicted of accepting bribes and acting as a foreign agent for Egypt. Prosecutors said he abused his office to protect allies and enrich associates, including his wife.

Menendez, 70, vowed to appeal the verdict, claiming he never violated his public oath or acted as a foreign agent. He did not testify during the nine-week trial but insisted publicly that he was only doing his job as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

The conviction comes just four months before Election Day, likely ending Menendez’s chances of reelection as an independent. Prominent Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Rep. Andy Kim, have called for his resignation following the verdict.

BELOVED Fitness Icon RICHARD Simmons Dies at 76

14 July 2024 — Richard Simmons, the energetic fitness guru known for his tank tops and short shorts, died Saturday at age 76. His publicist confirmed his death at his Los Angeles home from natural causes.

Simmons had revealed a skin cancer diagnosis in March 2024 and had recently withdrawn from public view, sparking speculation about his health. TMZ first reported his death.

A former overweight teen, Simmons became famous for promoting weight loss through media like the Emmy-winning “Richard Simmons Show” and best-selling books. His “Sweatin’ to the Oldies” videos were a cultural hit.

Despite becoming a target of jokes for his flamboyant style, Simmons remained dedicated to helping people live healthier lives. “I want to help people and make the world a healthier place,” he said in 1982.

DEMOCRAT Calls for BIDEN to Resign Over Health Concerns

12 July 2024 — Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) called for President Biden to step down and resign on Thursday. She cited concerns from her constituents about the President’s age and health. “I doubt the President’s judgement about his health, his fitness to do the job, and whether he is the one making important decisions,” she stated.

Perez emphasized that Americans deserve a president who is fit enough to lead. She urged Biden to put national interest first by resigning. “The crisis of confidence in the President’s leadership needs to come to an end,” she added.

Later in the day, Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT) also called for Biden’s resignation after a NATO press conference. Despite praising Biden’s record and accomplishments, Himes joined Perez in suggesting it was time for him to step down.

SENATE PASSES Bill To Reform Troubled Federal Prisons

11 July 2024 — The Senate passed the Federal Prison Oversight Act on Wednesday, aiming to bring transparency and accountability to the troubled Bureau of Prisons. The House approved the bill in May, and it now awaits President Biden’s signature. This legislation introduces an independent ombudsman to investigate complaints and mandates risk-based inspections by the Justice Department’s Inspector General.

Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., introduced the bill in 2022 during his investigation into the Bureau of Prisons as chair of a Senate subcommittee. He collaborated with Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and Sen. Mike Braun, R-Ind., forming a bipartisan group to address prison issues exposed by AP reporting. Reps. Kelly Armstrong, R-N.D., and Lucy McBath, D-Ga., supported the House version of this critical reform measure.

Ossoff called Wednesday’s passage “a major milestone,” emphasizing that his investigation highlighted an urgent need for better oversight in federal prisons.

Advocates for incarcerated individuals also praised this legislative achievement as a significant step forward in addressing systemic corruption and misconduct within the prison system.

WELCH SLAMS Biden’S RE-Election: "Disastrous" Debate Performance Raises RED Flags

11 July 2024 — Vermont Senator Peter Welch expressed concerns about President Biden’s re-election campaign in a Washington Post op-ed. While praising Biden’s past achievements, Welch highlighted worries about his recent debate performance. “We cannot unsee President Biden’s disastrous debate performance,” Welch wrote.

Welch noted that Biden appeared to freeze and struggled with his closing statement during the June 27 debate. He argued that these issues raise valid questions about Biden’s ability to defeat Trump in November. “The stakes could not be higher,” he added.

Despite understanding Biden’s desire to run again, Welch urged him to reassess his candidacy. “He saved us from Donald Trump once and wants to do it again,” Welch stated, but concluded, "In my view, he is not the best candidate.

BLOOMBERG’S $1 Billion Gift Transforms Johns Hopkins Medical School

09 July 2024 — Starting this fall, Bloomberg Philanthropies will cover tuition for Johns Hopkins medical students from families earning under $300,000 annually. This initiative aims to reduce student debt and increase opportunities.

Students from families making less than $175,000 a year will also have their living expenses and fees covered. Mike Bloomberg stated that more generous financial aid has made Johns Hopkins more economically diverse and selective.

The $1 billion gift will not only make medical school tuition-free for those with limited means but also boost financial aid for other graduate programs at Johns Hopkins. This move is expected to attract top students who might otherwise be deterred by financial constraints.

ANTI-ISRAEL Protests Erupt In Violence Near LA Synagogue

09 July 2024 — A violent anti-Israel demonstration near the Adas Torah synagogue in Los Angeles erupted into chaos on June 23. Clashes between pro-Israel supporters and anti-Israel protesters resulted in at least one arrest. Agitators allegedly blocked the synagogue entrance and harassed congregants.

Adam Swart, CEO of Crowds on Demand, criticized the demonstrators for alienating potential allies among left-leaning Jewish-Americans. “They’re alienating one of their potential major allies,” Swart told Fox News Digital. He argued that these actions do nothing to help the Palestinian cause.

President Biden condemned the violence, calling it “dangerous, unconscionable, antisemitic and un-American.” Demonstrations have intensified since Hamas attacked Israel, killing 1,200 people and kidnapping hundreds more. The conflict has exacerbated a humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

RUSSIAN MISSILE Strike Kills 17 In Ukraine: Zelenskyy Calls For Action

08 July 2024 — A Russian missile barrage targeted five Ukrainian cities, hitting apartment buildings and public infrastructure. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported the attack on social media, noting that Kryvyi Rih, his birthplace, saw 10 people killed and 47 injured. Kyiv authorities confirmed seven deaths in the capital.

The world should not be silent about it now," Zelenskyy urged on social media. Western leaders are gathering for a three-day NATO summit in Washington to discuss continued support for Ukraine amid Europe’s largest conflict since World War II.

In Kyiv, rescuers searched for survivors at Okhmatdyt children’s hospital after a missile caused part of the building to collapse. Sixteen people were injured, including seven children. The hospital was forced to shut down and evacuate as volunteers and emergency crews worked tirelessly amid rising smoke and debris.

HURRICANE BERYL Slams Texas Coast with Deadly Force

08 July 2024 — Hurricane Beryl made landfall near Matagorda, Texas, early Monday morning. The storm brought a dangerous surge and strong winds as it moved over land around 4 a.m. CST, according to the National Weather Service.

Beryl had strengthened back into a hurricane late Sunday, impacting southern Texas with rain and intensifying winds. Residents braced for the storm that had already caused destruction in Mexico and the Caribbean.

The National Hurricane Center issued an advisory at 3 a.m. CST warning of imminent landfall within two hours. This powerful storm has prompted significant concern and preparations along the Texas coast.

JUDGE BLOCKS Public Release of Nashville Shooter’s Writings

05 July 2024 — A judge in Nashville ruled that the writings of Audrey Hale, who killed six people at a Christian school, cannot be released to the public. Judge I’Ashea Myles determined that the victims’ families hold the copyright to Hale’s works. The families argued they should control access to these materials.

The decision stems from a novel legal argument using federal Copyright Act exceptions. Hale’s parents transferred ownership of her property to the victims’ families, who then fought in court for this ruling. This case marks a unique interpretation of copyright law as it applies to public records.

Interest in these documents is high due to theories about Hale’s motives, including possible hate crimes against Christians. Police reported that Hale may have identified as transgender, adding another layer of controversy and speculation around her writings.

Victims’ families praised the ruling, stating it denies notoriety to the shooter and brings them some relief. Cindy Peak’s family expressed gratitude for preventing Hale’s “vile and unfiltered thoughts” from being released publicly. The case is expected to be appealed soon.

BRITISH Election Sees NEW Voter ID LAW in Action

04 July 2024 — Polling stations across the UK opened this morning at 7 AM and will close at 10 PM. Ipsos pollsters are gathering exit poll data to provide an early picture of the election results. Detailed seat-specific results will only be available in the early hours of Friday.

British and Irish citizens, along with some Commonwealth immigrants, are eligible to vote if they are over 18. This election marks the first time voters must show legal identification to cast their ballots in person, a measure aimed at reducing voter fraud. The Electoral Commission has approved 22 forms of ID, including passports and driving licenses.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his wife Akshata Murty were seen voting at Kirby Sigston Village Hall today. Reporting on the election is restricted while polling places are open, with broadcasters banned from discussing outcomes or publishing polls until voting ends. Violating these rules can result in imprisonment for news editors.

BIDEN’S Naps Spark Fears About Fitness For Presidency

03 July 2024 — In a recent interview, host Abby Phillip questioned President Biden’s fitness, citing reports of his need for naps during debate prep. Phillip asked if these accommodations should concern Americans about his ability to serve another term.

Senator Butler deflected the question, focusing on broader issues like democracy and economic growth. She argued that Biden’s need for schedule adjustments shouldn’t overshadow his accomplishments in office.

Phillip pressed further, emphasizing the 24/7 nature of the presidency and expressing alarm over Biden’s nap requirements. Butler responded by listing Biden’s legislative achievements, suggesting that his work speaks louder than his need for rest during debate preparation.

MYSTERIOUS MONOLITH Stuns Colorado Residents

01 July 2024 — Another mysterious monolith has appeared, this time in Colorado. Lori Graves, owner of Morning Fresh Dairy Farm in Bellvue, discovered the 8-foot tall structure on her property. “I have ideas, but I almost don’t want to ruin the mystery around it,” Graves told KDVR.

The shiny object has attracted visitors eager to see the “alien monolith.” Speculation ranges from extraterrestrial origins to pranks targeting a neighbor interested in aliens and conspiracies. Despite theories, no one knows where these structures come from.

This latest mirrored mystery is part of a series of similar appearances worldwide. The phenomenon continues to intrigue and baffle observers, with no clear answers in sight.

Biden’s BORDER Policies are FAILING: Shocking New Data Exposed

29 June 2024 — New data reveals that President Biden’s border policies are not working. The number of illegal crossings has skyrocketed, causing major concerns. Border Patrol agents are overwhelmed, and many believe the administration is not doing enough to secure the border.

Critics argue that Biden’s approach is too lenient and invites more illegal immigration. They say stronger measures are needed to protect the country and ensure safety. This includes building more barriers and increasing patrols along the border.

Supporters of stricter policies claim that current strategies fail to address the root problems. They emphasize that without tougher enforcement, illegal crossings will continue to rise, putting a strain on resources and communities near the border.

The debate over how to handle immigration continues, but one thing is clear: Biden’s current policies are facing serious challenges. Many Americans want change and demand action to secure the nation’s borders effectively.

SUPREME COURT Shocker: Emergency Abortions Allowed in Idaho

26 June 2024 — The Supreme Court is set to permit emergency abortions in Idaho when a pregnant patient’s health is at serious risk. A draft opinion briefly posted on the court’s website indicates a 6-3 vote to reinstate a lower court order allowing such procedures. Conservative Justices Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissented.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson noted that this decision does not resolve the core issues of Idaho’s strict abortion ban. She emphasized that today’s ruling is merely a delay, not a victory for pregnant patients in Idaho. The case will continue at the 9th U.S. Circuit Court and may return to the Supreme Court later.

The Supreme Court acknowledged an inadvertent posting of the document and stated that an official opinion would be issued “in due course.” This development leaves many key questions unanswered, prolonging uncertainty around Idaho’s abortion laws.

OKLAHOMA Court BLOCKS First Religious Charter School

25 June 2024 — The Oklahoma Supreme Court halted the establishment of the first publicly funded religious charter school in the U.S. The court ruled that the Statewide Virtual Charter School Board’s approval of St. Isidore of Seville Virtual Charter School violated both state and federal constitutions. This decision is a setback for conservatives and Governor Kevin Stitt, who have supported religious involvement in public education.

Justice James Winchester stated that under Oklahoma law, charter schools must be nonsectarian, making it unconstitutional for St. Isidore to operate as a Catholic school with public funding. The ruling emphasized that public schools cannot evangelize or promote religious curricula while receiving state sponsorship.

Supporters of the school had hoped recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions would allow more flexibility for public funds to go to religious entities. Conservative states like Louisiana have already pushed for more religious content in public schools, such as posting the Ten Commandments in classrooms and teaching the Bible.

In response to the ruling, the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City and Diocese of Tulsa announced they will “consider all legal options.” This case will likely continue to be a focal point in debates over religion’s role in publicly funded education systems across America.

Biden’s BORDER Crisis: SHOCKING Surge in Illegal Crossings Alarms Americans

18 June 2024 — The border crisis under President Biden has reached alarming levels. New data shows a shocking surge in illegal crossings, leaving many Americans concerned. The situation at the southern border is deteriorating, with record numbers of migrants attempting to enter the country.

Border Patrol agents are overwhelmed as they try to manage the influx. Many believe that Biden’s policies are too lenient and encourage more illegal immigration. Critics argue that stronger measures are needed to secure the border and protect American citizens.

Local communities near the border are feeling the impact firsthand. Increased crime rates and strained resources have residents worried about their safety and well-being. Many are calling for immediate action to address these pressing issues before they worsen further.

As this crisis continues, it’s clear that a change in strategy is necessary. Americans want effective solutions that will restore order and security at our borders, ensuring a safer future for everyone involved. The time for decisive action is now, before things spiral out of control even more dramatically than they already have.

DEMOCRATIC CHAOS in New Jersey Politics: What It Means for November

18 June 2024 — The indictment of Democratic power broker George E. Norcross III on racketeering charges marks a significant blow to New Jersey’s dominant political party. State Attorney General Matt Platkin accused Norcross of orchestrating tax benefits for entities he controlled, which Norcross vehemently denied. This comes amid ongoing federal bribery charges against Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez, who has pleaded not guilty.

These legal troubles add to the turbulence in New Jersey politics just months before the November general election. Democrats are now scrambling to hold onto a U.S. Senate seat they didn’t expect to fight for, as their thin majority is already at risk. Republicans see new opportunities to gain a seat they haven’t held in over fifty years, buoyed by the chaos within the Democratic Party.

Some progressives view this upheaval as an overdue cleanup of New Jersey’s messy political landscape, long dominated by Democrats. Others draw parallels with national Republican dynamics, where establishment power has given way to populism championed by figures like former President Donald Trump. They see it as a potential shift towards restoring power to the people across the political spectrum.;

Biden’s BORDER Policy SHOCKS Americans: Crime Rates Soar

11 June 2024 — President Biden’s border policy has led to a surge in illegal crossings. Many Americans are worried about the rising crime rates linked to this influx. Local communities are feeling the impact, and some residents say they no longer feel safe in their own neighborhoods.

Critics argue that Biden’s approach is too lenient and lacks proper enforcement. They believe this has encouraged more people to cross illegally, putting a strain on resources and law enforcement.

Supporters of stricter border control point out that crime rates have increased in areas with high numbers of illegal immigrants. They call for immediate action to secure the border and protect American citizens from further harm.

The debate over immigration policy continues, but one thing is clear: many Americans are deeply concerned about their safety and the future of their communities under current policies.

ISRAEL RESCUES Hostages: Dramatic Operation Against Hamas

08 June 2024 — The Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Israel Police, and Israel Security Agency (ISA) successfully rescued four hostages from Gaza. The hostages include Noa Argamani, Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov, and Shlomi Ziv.

The rescue operation targeted two Hamas buildings above ground. Noa Argamani’s abduction had become a symbol of the October 7 Hamas terror attack, with footage of her kidnapping widely circulated.

The IDF shared a video showing the dramatic moment they freed three of the four hostages. This successful mission underscores Israel’s commitment to bringing its citizens home safely from terrorist captivity.

TRUMP FIGHTS Back: Lawyers Demand End to GAG Order in New York Case

05 June 2024 — Donald Trump’s legal team is requesting the removal of a gag order that prevents him from commenting on witnesses, jurors, and others involved in his criminal case. His lawyers argue that the restrictions on Trump’s First Amendment rights are no longer justified now that the trial has concluded.

Trump’s attorneys, Todd Blanche and Emil Bove, emphasized the need for “unrestrained campaign advocacy,” especially after President Joe Biden’s public comments about the verdict. They also pointed out ongoing criticism from Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels as reasons to lift the gag order.

The Manhattan district attorney’s office declined to comment on this request. Judge Juan M. Merchan initially issued the gag order before the trial started due to concerns about Trump attacking those involved in his cases.

Merchan later expanded it to include comments about his own family after Trump targeted his daughter online. While remarks about Merchan and District Attorney Alvin Bragg are permitted, statements regarding court staff and Bragg’s prosecution team remain prohibited under the current gag order.

IHF Delegation BRAVELY Visits WAR-Torn Gaza Periphery

26 May 2024 — The Israel Heritage Foundation (IHF) delegation, led by Rabbi David Katz and Dr. Joseph Frager, visited the Gaza periphery where the IDF is battling Hamas. They also toured the grounds of the Nova music festival, where hundreds were brutally killed and kidnapped.

At Kfar Aza, a kibbutz in southern Israel, over 60 civilians were slaughtered and 17 taken captive on October 7, 2023. Founded by Holocaust survivors in 1974, IHF aims to strengthen Israel’s security while combating bigotry and antisemitism.

Delegation members saw bullet-ridden homes and destroyed vehicles while hearing stories from survivors and families of those kidnapped. Ron, an IDF spokesperson, recounted harrowing tales from that fateful day to the group.

The group also visited an iron dome battery site and Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital to meet with wounded Israeli soldiers. Their visit aimed to offer support and encouragement during these challenging times.
