World War 3 Fears Intensify Russian Drone Strike Threatens NATO Ally’s Airspace

NATO dispatched four jets after a Russian drone was said to have ventured into Romanian airspace amid an assault on the nearby Ukraine.

The devastating attack on the Ukrainian town of Izmail resulted in three fatalities and 14 injuries, Odesa’s regional prosecutors claim. However, Ukraine’s air forces succeeded in taking down 24 out of 32 drones used in the strike.

Romania’s military responded by launching two of its F-16s and a pair of Spanish F-18s from their Borcea and Mihail Kogalniceanu bases between the early hours of 1.52 am and 3.22 am on Friday.

Following the incident, Romania’s Defense Ministry issued a strong rebuke of the attacks by the Russian Federation: “The Ministry of National Defense sends a firm message of condemnation of these attacks carried out by the Russian Federation against Ukrainian civilian objectives and infrastructure.”

It continued, “[They] are unjustified and in serious contradiction with the norms of international law. From the data available at this time, the existence of an impact area on the national territory has not been reported.”, reports the Express US.

Three More Pro-Life Activists Sentenced for Blocking Access to Abortion Clinic

Three pro-life activists were sentenced this week for their involvement in a 2021 abortion clinic blockade.

Authorities indicted a group of pro-life activists October 2022 for their involvement in blocking the entrance of Carafem Health Center Clinic in 2021, which prevented an employee and a patient from accessing the facility. The court imposed a 16-month prison sentence on Chester Gallagher Thursday for orchestrating the blockade in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, while Eva Edl received a three-year probation, according to The Associated Press.

Heather Idoni, already serving a two-year term for a similar offense in Washington, D.C., received an additional eight-month sentence on Friday, with U.S. District Judge Aleta Trauger ruling it could overlap her current imprisonment, the AP reported. The court found both Gallagher and Idoni guilty of obstructing clinic access and conspiring against federal law, and they will face three years of supervised release after their prison terms.

Battered CNN Bosses Reluctantly Surrender Secret Financial Documents as They Brace for Bank-Busting $1BILLION Jake Tapper Defamation Trial

CNN had no choice but to hand over a batch of documents detailing its financial secrets in preparation for a defamation trial predicted to cost the network $1billion.

RadarOnline.com can exclusively confirm attorneys for Navy veteran Zachary Young received a trove of information from CNN in order to determine what dollar amount would effectively punish the broadcasting giant in the event of a victory for their client.

To sort through the financial records – which have not been made public – and propose a suitable penalty, the vet’s legal team hired a financial expert whose testimony was viewed as “instrumental” in a $28billion judgment against Tobacco behemoth Philip Morris in 2002.

Meanwhile, CNN hired two new lawyers – including one who represented Amber Heard in her appeal of Johnny Depp’s defamation victory – to beef up its defense team in preparation for the January civil trial.

As this outlet has been reporting, Young’s lawsuit accused the network of pushing a “false narrative” about him during a 2021 episode of The Lead With Jake Tapper covering America’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Iran Calls Emergency Meeting After Israel Hits Hezbollah Leader’s HQ With Massive Airstrikes

Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is convening a high-level security meeting after Israel launched massive airstrikes in Beirut targeting the leader of Hezbollah, according to The New York Times.

Khamenei will be meeting with members of the Supreme National Security Council at his compound in Iran after Israeli forces launched a major airstrike in the southern suburbs of Beirut in an apparent attempt to eliminate Hezbollah’s Hassan Nasrallah, who helms the Iran-sponsored terrorist group, according to the NYT. It is currently unclear whether Nasrallah was killed in the strikes, which have reportedly killed at least two people and injured dozens more with the toll expected to rise.

Israel reportedly believed Nasrallah to be present at a headquarters facility located beneath buildings in the Lebanese capital city, according to the NYT. The major strikes appear to have essentially flattened at least four buildings, with nearby cars also being damaged or destroyed.

Data Dump Shows 650,000 Migrant Criminals, Suspects Free in Biden-Harris’s America; ‘It Seems Like We Don’t Matter’ to Her: Angel Moms Have Not Heard From Kamala Harris

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden’s administration is allowing up to 650,000 criminal migrants and suspects — including at least 13,099 migrant murderers and 222,141 migrants facing criminal charges — to roam through American communities, according to a dramatic data dump by a House Republican.

“The data says that, among those not in detention, there are 425,431 convicted criminals,” reported Fox News, which got the information from Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX). The letter from ICE to Gonzalez says:

Your letter requests the number of noncitizens on ICE’s docket convicted or charged with a crime. As of July 21, 2024, there were 662,566 noncitizens with criminal histories on ICE’s national docket, which includes those detained by ICE, and on the agency’s non-detained docket. Of those, 435,719 are convicted criminals [including 13,099 murders], and 226,847 have pending criminal charges.

The data shows that there are 13,099 migrants convicted of homicide who are not detained, Fox noted.

The report says an additional 222,141 undetained migrants are facing criminal charges, including 1,845 homicide charges, even though the agency is choosing not to use all of its 41,000 detention beds.

‘It Seems Like We Don’t Matter’ to Her: Angel Moms Have Not Heard From Kamala Harris

By Breitbart. Angel Moms on Friday said they have never heard from Vice President Kamala Harris after their children were murdered by illegal aliens or poisoned by fentanyl, but they shared what they would tell Harris if they had a chance to talk to her.

The three mothers, Patty Morin, Alexis Nungaray, and Anne Fundner, shared their heartbreaking stories during a Donald Trump campaign press call on Friday as Harris made her first trip to the Southwest border in over three years.

Patty’s daughter Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old mother of five, was allegedly murdered last summer by an MS-13 gang member illegally in the United States. On August 5, 2023, Rachel went for a walk at Ma & Pa Heritage Trail in Harford County, Maryland, but did not return home, and her body was recovered the next day on the side of the trail, as Breitbart News noted. Prosecutors allege that El Salvadorian national Victor Antonio Martinez Hernandez, 23, raped, bludgeoned, and strangled Rachel to death. The Tulsa Police Department arrested Martinez Hernandez in connection to Rachel’s murder in June 2024.

Alexis’s 12-year-old daughter, Jocelyn Nungaray, was murdered in June 2024, allegedly by Venezuelan nationals Jose Martinez-Rangel, 22, and Franklin Pena, 26, in Houston. Alexis said Jocelyn was getting a soda from a nearby corner store. It was then, authorities said, Jocelyn was lured under a bridge, abused, and murdered before her body was found in a shallow creek the next day. Jocelyn was strangled to death and was found without pants when her body was recovered the next day, per authorities.

Tropical Storm Helene Lashes the South, Leaves Millions Without Power; 44 Dead Across the South

By Breitbart. Authorities rescued people trapped by floodwaters and more than 3 million customers were in the dark across much of the southeastern U.S. as Hurricane Helene weakened to a tropical storm over Georgia early Friday after making landfall overnight in northwestern Florida as a Category 4 storm.

Helene came ashore amid warnings from the National Hurricane Center that the enormous system could create a “nightmare” storm surge. . .

Video on social media sites showed sheets of rain coming down in Perry, Florida, near where Helene made landfall, and siding being torn off buildings. One local news station showed a home that had flipped over. The community and much of surrounding Taylor County were without power. . .

With maximum sustained winds of 70 mph (110 kph) , Helene continued to weaken while moving farther inland over Georgia. The storm was about 40 miles (65 kilometers) east of Macon and about 100 miles (165 kilometers) southeast of Atlanta, moving north at 30 mph (48 kph) at 5 a.m., the hurricane center in Miami reported.

“We expect it to weaken further. It’s going to turn northward and turn northwestward and eventually move into Tennessee and Kentucky, and merge with a funnel system up in that area,” said Jack Beven, a senior hurricane specialist at the National Hurricane Center.

Hurricane Helene Updates: 44 Dead Across the South

By ABC News. Helene made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend region Thursday night as a massive Category 4 hurricane — the strongest hurricane to make landfall in the Big Bend on record.

Helene has since weakened and is now post-tropical, but its remnants will continue to produce dangerous weather. The center of the storm is now over Kentucky with heavy rain and gusty winds across a large area from Missouri to Ohio to the Carolinas.

At least 44 people have died from Hurricane Helene.

In Georgia, 15 people were killed, including a first responder who was trying to save others, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp said.

In McDuffie County, just west of Augusta, a mother and her twin infants were among the victims, officials said. (Read more from “Hurricane Helene Updates: 44 Dead Across the South” HERE)

Report: Biden-Harris Admin Is Stonewalling Congress’s Investigation Into First Trump Assassination Attempt

By The Federalist. The Biden-Harris administration is refusing to forfeit information relevant to the first assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump, a newly released bipartisan Senate report alleges.

Published on Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, the interim analysis documents the massive security breakdown by the Secret Service (USSS) during the July 13 attempt on Trump’s life in Butler County, Pennsylvania. The investigation was spearheaded by Sens. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., Gary Peters, D-Mich., Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn.

Among the notable takeaways from the report are allegations that relevant agencies within the Biden-Harris administration are refusing to provide records necessary to the committee’s investigation.

The analysis noted that “key requests to [the Federal Bureau of Investigation] FBI, [Department of Homeland Security] DHS, [Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives] ATF and USSS remain outstanding.” It specifically highlighted how the “majority of documents provided by the USSS and DHS are heavily redacted.”

“This has unnecessarily hindered the Committee’s ability to carry out its constitutional authority to investigate and acquire information necessary to identify needed reforms,” the report reads. “These overly burdensome redactions, including of communications related to the same individuals who the Committee interviewed, only served to delay the Committee’s ability to conduct these interviews and carry out its investigation efficiently and effectively.” (Read more from “Report: Biden-Harris Admin Is Stonewalling Congress’s Investigation Into First Trump Assassination Attempt” HERE)

Trump to Rally at Site of 1st Assassination Attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania

By CBS News. Former President Donald Trump will return to the site of the first assassination attempt against him in Butler, Pennsylvania, in the first week of October, according to two sources familiar with the Trump campaign’s planning.

Leslie Osche, chair of the Butler County Commissioners, confirmed to CBS Pittsburgh that the second Trump rally will be on Oct. 5.

The rally will take place at the Butler Farm Show fairgrounds, where gunman Thomas Crooks shot at him and grazed his ear on July 13. The set-up for the upcoming event is likely to be similar to the July rally.

Trump has repeatedly said he’d return to Butler, writing on his social media platform Truth Social in late July that he was going back to Butler for a “BIG AND BEAUTIFUL RALLY.”

Crooks opened fire on Trump from a rooftop roughly 400 feet away from the former president during an outdoor campaign rally in Butler. A CBS News video analysis determined that the gunman fired eight shots in under six seconds before he was fatally struck by a round from one of the Secret Service counter snipers — a fact later confirmed by the FBI. Pennsylvania firefighter Corey Comperatore was shot and killed at the July rally, and two other attendees were seriously injured.

‘His People Have Reached Out’: Charlamagne Says His Popular Hip-Hop Show Would ‘Absolutely’ Interview Trump

Radio host Charlamagne Tha God told a caller Thursday that “The Breakfast Club” would welcome former President Donald Trump for an interview.

While Trump has never appeared on the popular hip-hop show, Vice President Kamala Harris has previously participated in multiple interviews on the platform, although she has not visited “The Breakfast Club” during her current press-averse campaign. During a segment dubbed “Get It Off Your Chest,” a caller pressed the hosts about having Harris and Trump on the show, prompting Charlamagne and co-host DJ Envy to disclose that Trump’s “people have reached out.”

“We don’t have no problem having Trump here either. Trump, his people have reached out,” Charlamagne said, which Envy corroborated.

“Oh, they did? All right, bet. All right, well look, like I said, it’s 2024. Like I said, let’s go ahead and give them both an opportunity to come up there,” the caller responded, with Charlamagne agreeing, saying, “Absolutely. 100%.”

Charlamagne is a Harris supporter and has harshly criticized Trump, accusing the former president of having “created an environment of political violence that not even he is safe from” shortly after the first assassination attempt in July.

Former Dem Rep Tulsi Gabbard Slams Harris on Foreign Policy, Declares Her ‘Unfit’ to Be Commander in Chief

Former Hawaii Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard blasted the Biden administration’s foreign policy Thursday on Fox News and declared Vice President Harris “wholly unfit to be Commander in Chief.”

During an appearance on “The Ingraham Angle,” Gabbard said that the escalation of conflict between Ukraine and Russia is the “most dangerous moments of our lives,” then turning the conversation to the supposed failures of the Biden Administration on foreign policy. She claimed during the segment Harris is “unfit” to serve as commander and chief, saying she does not fully understand the consequences of a “nuclear Armageddon.”

“It’s the most dangerous moment of our lives, Laura. We cannot understate the seriousness of the position that we are in directly because of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden’s foreign policy and their action, their decisions,” she told Laura Ingraham. “Kamala Harris is wholly unfit to be our commander in chief.”

“She clearly doesn’t know that we have service members in combat zones at war today putting their lives on the line. She clearly does not understand or care about the serious consequences of what nuclear Armageddon would mean for all of us, all of the American people and humanity in the world,” she added. . .

“She is continuing to lie to the American people saying, oh, first, you know, Russia, first it’s Ukraine and then it’s the Baltic countries and then it’s Poland and then it’s all of these other countries and they want to take over the entire former Soviet Union all over,” Gabbar continued. “There’s no proof of this. There’s no evidence of this.” (Read more from “Former Dem Rep Tulsi Gabbard Slams Harris on Foreign Policy, Declares Her ‘Unfit’ to Be Commander in Chief” HERE)

Blow to China’s Military Plans After New Nuclear Submarine ‘Sinks’

China’s newest nuclear attack submarine has sunk in a shipyard accident, in a setback to the country’s attempts to overtake the United States in a naval arms race, according to US officials.

The sinking of the first of a new Zhou-class of nuclear-powered submarines triggered a scramble for Beijing to cover up the incident, officials told The Wall Street Journal.

The newly built vessel, which features a distinctive X-shaped stern, was sighted on satellite images alongside a pier at Wuchang Shipyard as it was being equipped for sea in late May.

It is claimed to have sunk later that month or in early June. Suspicion was said to have been raised when floating cranes were seen at the site soon afterwards.

Brent Sadler, a former submarine officer at Washington’s Heritage Foundation think tank, said: “The sinking of a new nuclear sub that was produced at a new yard will slow China’s plans to grow its nuclear submarine fleet. This is significant.” (Read more from “Blow to China’s Military Plans After New Nuclear Submarine ‘Sinks’ HERE)
