US Tech Company Pulls Olympics Ads After Opening Ceremony ‘Mockery of the Last Supper’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A tech company swiftly dropped its Olympic advertising after drag queens and dancers performed an apparent parody of the Last Supper at the 2024 Paris opening ceremonies.

Mississippi-based telecommunications and technology company C Spire announced it cut ties with the games Saturday morning — several hours after the show that sparked outrage across the globe.

“We were shocked by the mockery of the Last Supper during the opening ceremonies of the Paris Olympics. C Spire will be pulling our advertising from the Olympics,” the company posted on X.

C Spire declined to share with The Post what form of advertisements were pulled or how much they forked over to be part of the quadrennial world event.

Company President and CEO Suzy Hays said in a statement that “C Spire is supportive of our athletes who have worked so hard to be a part of the Olympics. However, we will not be a part of the offensive and unacceptable mockery of the Last Supper, which is why we’re pulling our advertising from the Olympics.”

Trump Defends Female Secret Service Agent Who Was Criticized After Assassination Attempt: ‘So Brave’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Donald Trump praised the female Secret Service agent who “bravely” shielded him during his attempted assassination, saying she “wanted to take a bullet,” after critics suggested she was too small to effectively protect the 6-foot-3 former president.

Trump praised the female agent’s actions during the July 13 attempt on his life while speaking at a rally in St. Cloud, Minnesota, on Saturday.

“There was great bravery displayed… Every one of them. There wasn’t one that was slow,” Trump began telling the crowd. “There was a woman to my right shielding me. A beautiful person. She was shielding me with everything she could.”

The former president continued: “She got criticized by the fake news because she wasn’t tall enough. She was criticized and she was so brave.”

“She was shielding me with everything. She wanted to take a bullet,” he added as the crowd erupted into cheers. (Read more from “Trump Defends Female Secret Service Agent Who Was Criticized After Assassination Attempt: ‘So Brave’” HERE)

3 Palestinian Terror Suspects Caught After Crossing Border Illegally as Overwhelmed Agents Warn: ‘I Probably Let Terrorists In’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Border agents detained three Palestinian migrants who illegally crossed the southern border after they were found to have possible ties to terrorist organizations earlier this month, according to sources.

One of the migrants had “salacious photos” on their phone — including a picture of a masked man holding an AK-47 rifle, federal law enforcement sources said.

In addition to the three Palestinians, federal authorities caught one migrant from Turkey who was also suspected of having ties to terror groups.

The migrants were among groups of dozens of migrants who turned themselves in to border agents at the San Diego sector, said sources.

An investigation into the migrants is ongoing, sources said. The group was transferred to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force is investigating their cases.

Child Rapist Competing in Olympics, IOC Defends his Participation

/0 Comments/in , /by

Steven van de Velde, a Dutch beach volleyball player who served time in prison for raping a child 10 years ago, was roundly booed by the crowd during the Netherlands’ first match at the Paris Olympics.

Footage posted on social media showed jeers and boos ringing out, as van de Velde and his partner Matthew Immers walked out into the arena at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. Eventually, they were defeated by the Italian duo of Alex Ranghieri and Adrian Carambula.

Van de Velde’s presence at these Olympic Games has caused much controversy given that he was sentenced to four years in prison for raping a 12-year-old girl in 2014, according to British media. He was released in 2017 and is now 29 years old.

Despite the torrent of criticism directed towards the Dutch National Olympic Committee for selecting him, the IOC defended that decision as “correct,” saying that van de Velde has undergone “a great deal of rehabilitation.” (Read more from “Child Rapist Competing in Olympics, IOC Defends his Participation” HERE)

Hungary’s Orban Says Anti-LGBTQ Russia Stands to Gain as ‘Irrational’ West Loses Power

/1 Comment/in , /by

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Saturday Russia’s leadership was “hyper rational” and that Ukraine would never be able to fulfil its hopes of becoming a member of the European Union or NATO. . .

“In the next long decades, maybe centuries, Asia will be the dominant center of the world,” Orban said, mentioning China, India, Pakistan and Indonesia as the world’s future big powers.

“And we Westerners pushed the Russians into this bloc as well,” he said in the televised speech before ethnic Hungarians at a festival in the town of Baile Tusnad in neighboring Romania. . .

Orban, whose own government has passed a number of anti-LGBT measures, said Russia had gained clout in many parts of the world by cracking down on LGBTQ+ rights.

“The strongest international appeal of Russian soft power is its opposition to LGBTQ,” he said. (Read more from “Hungary’s Orban Says Anti-LGBTQ Russia Stands to Gain as ‘Irrational’ West Loses Power” HERE)

Iranian Hard-Liners Accuse President-Elect Pezeshkian of Connections to U.S. Intelligence and “Promoting Homosexuality”

/0 Comments/in , /by

A hardliner aligned with Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has sharply criticized President-elect Pezeshkian’s cabinet formation team, accusing them of corruption, espionage, and “promoting homosexuality.”

In an article published on Saturday, Hossein Shariatmadari, editor of Iran’s flagship hardliner newspaper Kayhan, funded by Khamenei’s office, criticized President-elect Masoud Pezeshkian’s Strategic Council for Transition. Shariatmadari argued that the council, responsible for identifying and recommending ministerial candidates, is made up of individuals who are incompetent and unfit for their roles. He also accused them of fraud and purported liberal leanings without providing any concrete evidence to support his claims.

The Council for Transition is a new development in Iranian politics, intended to demonstrate Pezeshkian’s commitment to his campaign promise of using varying experts to tackle important issues. Currently, there is intense competition for ministerial roles, with various factions striving to secure cabinet positions. This period is particularly significant due to concerns about Khamenei’s advancing age, potentially tumultuous times, and the likelihood that this administration may act as a transitional government if a new leader takes over. . .

[Hard-liner Shariatmadari also wrote,] “Many members of the council and its subcommittees have a history marked by collaboration with enemy intelligence services, security convictions, corruption, and defense of homosexuality. Their track records reveal disbelief in the system and the revolution, and they have openly aligned and collaborated with the US, UK, and Israel during riots and uprisings”. . .

Pezeshkian, a relative moderate, is replacing hardline President Ebrahim Raisi, who was killed in a helicopter crash in May. He will be sworn in before parliament on Tuesday.

‘Degeneracy’: Barely Clothed, Bearded Drag Queen Dances Seductively at Paris’ Olympic Opening Ceremony

By Breitbart. The Tour de Farce that was the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics included a drag queen version of the Last Supper, a strongly suggested bisexual threesome, and a scantily-clad, bearded drag queen doing a provocative dance.

The not-family-friendly ceremony seemed to be nearing an end. Still, organizers apparently couldn’t resist taking at least one more stab at decency by letting a leather-clad man with a beard do his thing on the runway.

The responses to the “performance” ranged from disbelief to outright rage.

Trump, Sans Ear Bandage for First Time Since Assassination Attempt, Slams Kamala Harris as a ‘Bum’ in Florida Speech

/5 Comments/in , /by

Donald Trump, appearing at a public event without an ear bandage for the first since he was shot in an assassination attempt, blasted Kamala Harris as a “bum” in a scathing Florida speech Friday.

The former president, 78, tore into the 59-year-old vice president while speaking at a summit hosted by the conservative Christian organization Turning Point Action in West Palm Beach.

“She was a bum 3 weeks ago, she was a bum. A failed VP, in a failed administration, with millions of people crossing and she was the Border Czar,” Trump told the crowd of his likely Democratic opponent in the 2024 presidential race.

The former president also declared Harris — who has secured the requisite amount of delegate support to be named the Democratic nominee — “worse than Joe Biden and in a true sense much more liberal.” . . .

“And by the way, there are numerous ways of saying her name. They were explaining to me, ‘You can say Comma-la, you can say Kah-mala,’” Trump claimed. He consistently uses the latter, which is incorrect. (Read more from “Trump, Sans Ear Bandage for First Time Since Assassination Attempt, Slams Kamala Harris as a ‘Bum’ in Florida Speech” HERE)

Biden Justice Department Just Hashed Out a Corrupt Deal With Lisa Page and Peter Strzok

/4 Comments/in , /by

With the Democratic Party bosses successfully executing their plan to replace Joe Biden, Trump barely surviving an assassination attempt, and the entire 2024 race upended, the Biden Justice Department thought it was an opportune time to settle a with former FBI officials Lisa Page and Peter Strzok. Their long-standing lawsuit involved allegations that their privacy was violated.

In Mr. Strzok’s case, he was terminated from the FBI, and he alleges his firing was politically motivated. He hopes to get his job to obtain full retirement benefits. Given the chaos of the 2024 race right now, to paraphrase the late Philip Seymour Hoffman in Charlie Wilson’s War, As long as the press sees 2024 chaos, Trump, and Kamala behind the left hand, “you can park a battle carrier behind the right hand and no one’s gonna f**king notice” (via NYT):

The Justice Department settled a lawsuit on Friday with two former F.B.I. officials who had accused the Trump administration of violating their privacy by sharing their texts disparaging former President Donald J. Trump with the news media, according to court documents.

As part of the settlement, the government agreed to pay the former officials, Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, concluding at least some of the litigation. The amount was not disclosed in court filings, but Mr. Strzok’s law firm said he received $1.2 million.

Speaker Mike Johnson Puts Kamala Harris’ Border Failures on Full Display

/5 Comments/in , /by

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) made a surprise visit to the southern border as Vice President Kamala Harris’s failures as border czar are being highlighted as she seeks to secure the Democratic presidential nominee.

After touring the San Diego sector– one of the busiest parts of the U.S.-Mexico border– Johnson attacked Harris and President Joe Biden for blatantly ignoring the crisis that has resulted in tens of millions of illegal immigrants entering the United States.

“We’ve had a very interesting tour here at the San Diego sector. This has become, in many ways, the epicenter of the Biden-Harris border catastrophe,” Johnson said. “Now we’re very concerned in Congress that this illegal immigrant invasion is threatening even the integrity of our elections.”

In March 2021, Harris was tasked with solving the “root causes” of illegal immigration.

However, she abandoned her duties just as quickly as she was given them. (Read more from “Speaker Mike Johnson Puts Kamala Harris’ Border Failures on Full Display” HERE)
