Iran’s Disfigured, ‘Probably Gay,’ Supreme Leader Agrees to Direct Talks with US, Could Start this Weekend

/0 Comments/in , /by

Still-missing Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei authorized in-person meetings with the US to finalize the peace deal, according to a report.

Khamenei gave his negotiation team the green light to head to Switzerland for the first round of negotiations with the US on Friday under the memorandum of understanding, according to a statement released by his office.

Khamenei, who has yet to be seen in public since he was injured at the start of the war, instructed his team not to yield to any demands made by Washington that he deems excessive.

The ayatollah, who ascended to the seat when his father and much of his family was killed in an Israeli strike at the start of the war, is believed to have been disfigured in the blast. US intelligence also reported that he is believed to be “probably gay” following reports he underwent treatment for “impotence” in London as a young man.

The supreme leader said he made the decision to cooperate with the US after receiving assurances from Iranian President Masoud ⁠Pezeshkian and the head of the Supreme National Security Council.

California Legislature Seeks to Let Kids Divorce Their Parents

/0 Comments/in , /by

In the left’s ongoing crusade to separate vulnerable children from the influence of their parents, Democrats in the Failed State of California are pushing a bill that would allow minor children to divorce their parents.

As you read this, keep in mind that this has nothing to do with protecting children. Quite the opposite, in fact. This is all about removing children from the protection of their families so they can be corrupted and exploited.

“The bill [AB 1967] allows any minor residing in any residential facility to file a legal application against their parents, without cause or evidence of harm,” reports the Post Millennial. “Residential facilities include drug rehabilitation programs, boarding schools, wilderness therapy programs, faith-based residential programs, and runaway shelters.”

You think that sounds bad? Here’s the devil in those details…

“The child can petition the court to strip the parents of custodial authority and substitute county child welfare control or foster placement,” the report adds. “The application need not be corroborated by any adult and need not be served on the parents. The child’s statement alone is sufficient to trigger a mandatory assessment of the parents’ home. This assessment can occur without the parents’ knowledge.” (Read more from “California Legislature Seeks to Let Kids Divorce Their Parents” HERE)

Noah’s Ark Could Finally be Found After Historic Deal Promises ‘Irrefutable Proof’

/3 Comments/in , , /by

A mysterious formation high in the mountains of eastern Turkey has long fueled speculation that it could be the final resting place of Noah’s Ark.

Now, researchers who believe they have identified signs of a massive man-made structure buried beneath the site have received official approval to put their theory to the test.

The team behind Noah’s Ark Scans announced that its Turkish partner has secured government permits to conduct what it describes as the most comprehensive scientific investigation ever undertaken at the Durupinar Formation near Mount Ararat.

The expedition will include non-destructive core drilling, advanced remote-sensing technology, next-generation imaging systems and an underground drone named ‘Gopher’ designed to map what lies beneath the surface.

In a statement announcing the approval, the group said it hopes to provide the world with ‘irrefutable proof’ that the formation is the authentic resting place of Noah’s Ark. (Read more from “Noah’s Ark Could Finally be Found After Historic Deal Promises ‘Irrefutable Proof’” HERE)

Cross Burning Is Latest Example Of Left-Wing Extremism Being Blamed On GOP

/0 Comments/in , /by

When a burning cross was found at a Chicago park last week, the media and Democrats already apparently knew who was responsible.

“A large burning cross — a historic symbol of hate and intimidation against Black Americans — was discovered in a Chicago park where former President Barack Obama famously delivered his acceptance speech when he was elected the nation’s first Black president,” The Associated Press (AP) reported on June 10.

Given the framing, readers may have been under the impression that police were searching for a white supremacist, a racist, and, given how the left has broadly painted Republicans as both of those things, a Republican.

Gov. JB Pritzker said while speaking at Rainbow PUSH’s Coalition annual conference the very next day after the incident: “The fact that it even occurred at all speaks to what happens when the seeds of racism and fascism grow unchecked in our country.”

Given how Pritzker himself has compared Trump to the Nazi regime and Democrats writ large have accused Republicans (and Trump) of being fascists, it’s hard not to suspect that Pritzker was subliminally blaming Republicans.

Frank Chapman, a Chicago resident and executive director of the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression “pointed to how people who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, were ultimately not punished. President Donald Trump pardoned, commuted prison sentences, or ordered the dismissal of cases for all of the nearly 1,600 people charged in the attack,” as described by NBC News.

City Publishes Pride Month ‘Emergency Preparedness Guide’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Annapolis Office of Emergency Management (OEM) posted an “Emergency Preparedness Guide for LGBTQ People,” which includes many standard emergency items (medication, important documents) as well as chest binders, packers, and wigs.

In a post to their Facebook page made Tuesday morning, OEM compiled a list of the most important safety steps, specifically for LGBTQ people. “This #PrideMonth, OEM is sharing practical steps for LGBTQ+ residents to prepare,” OEM says in the caption of their post. This can include “building support networks, identifying safe spaces, managing medical needs, and packing essential supplies.”

Some of the recommendations are useful to the general public, such as preparing medication, gathering important documents, hygiene supplies, and medical contact information. However, the guide recommends gathering chest binders, packers, cosmetics, wigs, and hormonal medication.

The guide also highlights the difficulties for people “who rely on gender-affirming clothing.” The guide recommends taking breaks for people wearing “chest binders” on hot days.

“Our role in Emergency Management is to ensure that our residents and businesses are prepared,” OEM told the Daily Caller. “Because June is Pride month, we felt there was an opportunity to address some of the unique challenges faced by some members of the LGBTQ community.” (Read more from “City Publishes Pride Month ‘Emergency Preparedness Guide’” HERE)

Jeff Bezos Claims AI Boom Will Create More Jobs Than It Kills

/1 Comment/in , /by

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos claimed Wednesday that the artificial intelligence boom will actually result in labor shortages, multiple outlets reported.

Bezos suggested during a talk at the VivaTech technology conference in Paris that he disagrees with concerns that AI technology will make human workers “redundant,” Reuters reported.

“I ​know there’s a lot of concern that many people have, including many smahrt people, that AI ​is going to make humans redundant and so on,” Bezos said, according to the outlet. “I totally disagree with this point of view. And I think, in fact, AI is going to create a labor shortage.”

Bezos’ comments come amid mounting fears among some American workers that AI may take their jobs. A Reuters/Ipsos survey ‌released on June 10 found that 53% of Americans were concerned that AI would take jobs in their household.

The U.S. technology industry announced 38,242 job cuts in May, according to a report by outplacement firm Challenger, Gray and Christmas. The announcement marked the biggest monthly loss for the sector since August 2024. Technology is leading 2026 reductions in force by a large margin, the report found.

Fast-Food Chain Overtakes Chick-Fil-A As Highest Rated

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Chick-fil-A no longer sits atop the fast-food world in terms of customer satisfaction, a new American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) found.

Jersey Mike’s debuted at the top of the quick-service restaurant category with a customer satisfaction score of 84 out of 100 in the ACSI Restaurant and Food Delivery Study 2026, ending Chick-fil-A’s 11-year run as the leader, according to a press release. Chick-fil-A held steady at 83 and slipped to second. Customers rated Jersey Mike’s well for fresh ingredients, menu range, and value. The company’s Franchise Finance Document (FDD) showed it added 238 net new locations last year, QSR Magazine reported.

“Quick-service restaurants remain steady for the third straight year at an ACSI score of 79, but the industry’s story this year is change at the top,” the study reads.

Jersey Mike’s built its rise on speed and convenience, with a business model leaning on order throughput, off-premise convenience, and heavy digital use, according to the ACSI. The New Jersey sub chain runs a “fairly narrow” menu, and the index credited the brand’s model as friendly to franchisee success.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) welcomed the Iran deal that President Donald Trump signed on Wednesday, calling for the war’s end.

The senator shared his thoughts on the deal in an X post on Wednesday.

“I’ve spent my career warning against regime change wars, nation-building, and endless military entanglements. The same voices now attacking Trump’s Iran deal are the architects of every failed intervention of my lifetime. This war must end. I stand with President Trump on peace,” he wrote.

Leaked and Classified Situation Room Talks Demand a Criminal Probe from ‘Furious’ Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .Reports are surfacing that White House aides are suddenly alarmed over the likelihood that top secret conversations on national security were taped and leaked to the New York Times.

Axios quotes an administration source as saying, “We’re afraid some of our most sensitive conversations were being recorded, and we have no idea which ones.”

The outlet also writes, “We hear President Trump is furious about the blow-by-blow accounts.”

The president has every right to be furious, but he shouldn’t stop there.

Situation Room meetings are classified, and the mere possibility that details of conversations, including those about the goals and strategy of the Iran war, were leaked demands a criminal probe.

Yet so far, there’s not been a peep from the Department of Justice, despite the fact that Pam Bondi, then the attorney general, and Kash Patel, the head of the FBI, were on speakerphone for one of the secret meetings, according to New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan.

Africa CDC Warns Congo Ebola Outbreak Could Be Worst in History

/0 Comments/in , /by

Jean Kaseya, director of the Africa Centers for Disease Control (Africa CDC) warned on Tuesday that the current outbreak of Ebola in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) could become the worst ever recorded since so many of the people who came into contact with Ebola victims have yet to be traced and tested.

“If we don’t stop the outbreak very soon it will ​be worse than what ​we had in West Africa and eastern ‌DRC,” said Kaseya. The West Africa outbreak in 2014 killed over 11,000 people, while the 2018 outbreak in the Congo claimed almost 2,300 victims.

According to the latest update from the DRC health ministry, the current outbreak of the Ebola Bundibugyo strain includes 782 cases and 181 fatalities, which would not seem to be in a league with the horrifying death tolls from 2014 or 2018. However, one of the biggest problems with the current outbreak is that cases have been very difficult to diagnose and track due to political instability in the outbreak region and an often-uncooperative population.

Health officials fear the true number of cases and deaths could be much higher than the figures confirmed so far and, while the outbreak was officially declared one month ago, it began weeks or months before that.

On the matter of the uncooperative population in the eastern Congo, a gang of unknown assailants wielding bladed weapons reportedly removed a woman and her six-year-old daughter from a treatment center on Tuesday. It was the latest instance of people in the outbreak region using force to retrieve living or dead Ebola patients from isolation areas because they mistrust medical personnel, insist on performing their own funerals for the dead, or believe Ebola is caused by witchcraft.
