Charlie Kirk Suspect’s Trans Lover Lance Twiggs Goes Missing 6 Weeks After Political Assassination

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The transgender lover of Charlie Kirk’s alleged killer has seemingly vanished from his hometown six weeks after the political assassination that shook the country.

Lance Twiggs, 22, has been on the down-low since his boyfriend Tyler Robinson allegedly shot the Turning Point USA co-founder dead and then sent Twiggs a string of text messages confessing to the slaying, according to feds. . .

Authorities previously said that he is cooperating with authorities, but Twiggs has refused to speak with media while Robinson awaits trial in a Salt Lake City jail cell. . .

It is unclear whether Twiggs is living with his parents or is even still in St. George — four hours from Utah Valley University, where Charlie Kirk was killed.

Twiggs’ car, an Inifinii FX35, is now parked in his parents’ driveway.

Jesse Riley, who lives just a few houses down from Twiggs’ and Robinson’s apartment, said he couldn’t recall seeing any activity from the property since Robinson, also 22, turned himself over to the cops.

Trump Admin Moves to Bar States From Wiping Medical Debt Off Credit Reports

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Trump administration is moving to undercut state-level efforts to wipe medical debt from Americans’ credit reports, just as millions across the country are facing massive healthcare premium increases stemming from congressional Republicans’ refusal to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies.

On Tuesday, according to reporting by The Lever and Bloomberg Law, the Russell Vought-led Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) will publish a nonbinding interpretive rule arguing that federal statute “generally preempts state laws that touch on areas of credit reporting.”

The guidance aligns with views expressed by a Trump-appointed federal judge in Texas who, earlier this year, vacated a Biden-era CFPB rule that would have prohibited the inclusion of medical debt on consumer credit reports. The Trump administration, which has repeatedly violated court orders, is complying with the decision.

Medical debt is a growing crisis in the United States: Roughly 14 million adults owe more than $1,000 in medical debt, and an estimated 20% of Americans have medical debt on their credit reports.

Supporters of removing medical debt from credit reports argue it is not a reliable measure of creditworthiness. The Center for Consumer Law & Economic Justice at UC Berkeley notes that “medical debt often reflects the simple misfortune of getting sick unexpectedly and having to face a medical system that is rife with insurance stonewalling, delay, and mistakes.” (Read more from “Trump Admin Moves to Bar States From Wiping Medical Debt Off Credit Reports” HERE)

Bill Gates Backflips and Says ‘Climate Change’ No Threat to Humanity After All

/0 Comments/in , /by

Why are people panicking about the weather? Climate doomer Bill Gates thinks everyone should just calm down. He believes “climate change” is a serious problem but it won’t be the end of humanity as we know it, a 17-page memo released Tuesday by the billionaire reveals.

Gates now thinks scientific innovation will curb any threats — real and perceived — to the planet’s climate and it’s instead time for a “strategic pivot” away from focusing on limiting rising temperatures to fighting poverty and preventing disease.

The 70-year-old said in the memo the world’s primary goal should now work to prevent suffering, particularly for those in the toughest conditions in the world’s poorest countries.

AP reports if given a choice between eradicating malaria and a tenth of a degree increase in warming, Gates told reporters, “I’ll let the temperature go up 0.1 degree to get rid of malaria. People don’t understand the suffering that exists today.”

The Microsoft co-founder wrote his 17-page memo – as seen by AP – hoping to have an impact on next month’s U.N. climate change conference in Brazil. (Read more from “Bill Gates Backflips and Says ‘Climate Change’ No Threat to Humanity After All” HERE)

Report: Gavin Newsom’s Prostitution Shield Law Creates Sex Market Full of 12, 13-Year-Old Girls in Downtown L.A.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The New York Times has shone a spotlight on the Democrats’ long-ignored “kiddie stroll” sex market on Los Angeles’ Figueroa Street, yet the newspaper downplayed the pimp shield law pushed by a libertarian Democratic legislator, Rep Scott Wiener, and signed by California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

“For the 77th Street Division, which covers the northern half of the Figueroa Corridor, prostitution had always been a problem. But in recent years, the officers had seen the magnitude of child sex trafficking explode,” says the article, written by reporter Emily Baumgaertner Nunn.

Gangs that had long sold drugs began to take advantage of Figueroa’s lucrative opportunity. With a dozen girls, one trafficker could easily make $12,000 a night. “Drugs are sold once and gone forever, but girls can be resold indefinitely,” said [police sergeant Alvaro] Navarro, who had been in the division for two decades. Motel owners who noticed the parades of customers but feared the gangs’ retribution kept quiet.

. . .

Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the police handcuff bill after it was pushed by Wiener and his far-left allies, who passed SB357 in 2022.

The newspaper did not mention Newsom or Wiener, or clearly describe the pro-prostitution bill, which was pitched by Wiener as legal support for minorities along with gays and “transgender” people.

Doc Shows Garland, Wray, And Monaco All Over Corrupt ‘Arctic Frost’

/1 Comment/in , , /by

The fingerprints of top deep-staters in President Joe Biden’s weaponized Department of Justice are all over the launch of the corrupt “Arctic Frost” investigation, according to a document just dropped by Sen. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

“Just received this doc frm DOJ Proof that Biden Atty General Merrick Garland+ Deputy Atty General Lisa Monaco+ FBI Dir Chris Wray all PERSONALLY APPROVED opening Arctic Frost,” the Iowa Republican wrote Thursday afternoon on X.

“This investigation unleashed unchecked govt power at the highest levels. My oversight will continue,” Grassley added.

The document is initialed by the DOJ’s top generals, unleashing Arctic Frost, the flimsy FBI probe that led to politically conflicted Special Counsel Jack Smith’s election lawfare campaign against President Donald Trump. The political witch hunt aimed to take down the Democrats’ biggest political threat in advance of the 2024 election.

Dated April 4, 2022, the Memorandum for Attorney General Garland from Wray and through Monaco is an urgent request asking Garland to sign off on the FBI Washington Field Office (WFO) opening a full sensitive investigative matter (SIM) into Trump, his campaign, and allies on allegations that they attempted to overthrow the 2020 election. The memo provided very thin detail and basis to open a criminal case that appears to have trampled all over the rights of Republican groups and individuals, including Trump and members of Congress.

Judge Rules Accused Charlie Kirk Shooter Can Wear Civilian Clothes — But Must Remain Restrained in Court

/3 Comments/in , /by

A Utah judge has ruled that the man accused of fatally shooting conservative activist Charlie Kirk may wear civilian clothing in court but must remain restrained during proceedings.

Tyler Robinson, 22, is accused of gunning down Kirk, 31, on September 10 while the Turning Point USA cofounder and close ally of former President Donald Trump was speaking to students at Utah Valley University in Orem. Robinson, who later turned himself in, faces aggravated murder and multiple felony charges, with prosecutors pursuing the death penalty.

At a hearing on October 27, Judge Tony Graf ruled that Robinson “shall be dressed as one who is presumed innocent” during all pretrial appearances but denied the defense’s request to remove restraints entirely. Graf acknowledged that Robinson has no prior criminal history and has behaved appropriately while in custody but said the “extraordinarily serious” nature of the case, coupled with heightened public emotion, justified additional precautions.

“The court must balance the presumption of innocence with the need to maintain order and safety,” Graf said in his decision. He ordered the sheriff’s office to use the least restrictive restraints possible and barred the media from photographing or filming the restraints to prevent potential juror bias.

Robinson’s defense team had argued that appearing in shackles or inmate attire could prejudice potential jurors and violate his right to a fair trial. They cited precedent from the Bryan Kohberger case — the convicted murderer of four University of Idaho students — where the defendant was temporarily allowed to appear in civilian clothes.

Prosecutors, however, opposed Robinson’s motion, citing security details that have not been made public due to the high-profile nature of the case. The matter was discussed in a closed-door hearing on October 24.

The Utah County Sheriff’s Office had suggested Robinson could appear remotely for some noncritical hearings to minimize concerns over public perception. Defense attorneys objected, arguing that virtual appearances would infringe on Robinson’s constitutional rights and limit his ability to communicate with his legal team.

Both the prosecution and defense agreed that media coverage should be limited, particularly photo and video recordings, to avoid further prejudicing the jury pool. Robinson’s attorneys said extensive pretrial coverage had already “relentlessly focused on Mr. Robinson’s demeanor and appearance” and risked undermining his right to an impartial trial.

Judge Graf also ruled in favor of a defense motion challenging a joint filing made by the sheriff’s office and prosecutors, calling it procedurally improper. However, he declined to issue an immediate ruling on broader questions regarding a media ban or remote hearings.

Graf emphasized that the proceedings will remain open to the public, instructing attorneys from both sides to submit separate motions on those issues.

UFO Tracker Shows Thousands of Eerie Underwater Objects Lurking Along US Coasts

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .A popular UFO-reporting app has recorded thousands of sightings of Unidentified Submersible Objects (USOs) near US waterways — phenomena which high-ranking US Navy officials warn could pose a threat to national security.

Enigma, which touts itself as the “largest queryable historical sighting database for global UFO sightings,” claims it has received reports on over 30,000 Unidentified Flying Objects and Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena since launching in late 2022.

But the sightings haven’t been limited to the skies, with reports also coming in about strange objects rising from the depths of the sea, or plunging into the water without so much as a splash.

As of August, Enigma has also logged more than 9,000 mysterious sightings within 10 miles of US shorelines or major bodies of water — 500 of them within 5 miles — with more than 150 of the reports describing objects hovering above or descending into waterways, according to Marine Technology News.

The US states with the most reported USO sightings were California (389) and Florida (306) — both among the top three US states with the most ocean coastline. One of the most bizarre reports includes phone camera video of unexplained green lights traveling beneath the surface of the ocean.

Is There Anyone On Comey’s Legal Team Who Wasn’t Getting Leaks From The FBI?

/0 Comments/in , /by

Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey filed a motion on Monday to dismiss the charges of lying to Congress brought by District Attorney Lindsey Halligan in the Eastern District of Virginia. Comey, however, has retained yet another one of his former leak recipients as a defense attorney, raising the question: Is there anyone on Comey’s defense team that he wasn’t leaking to?

According to a 2019 Office of Inspector General report, in May 2017, James Comey sent four confidential FBI memos to his personal lawyer Patrick Fitzgerald, along with instructions to share the documents with two other lawyers: Daniel Richman and David Kelley. Fitzgerald and Kelley are Comey’s defense lawyers in the case brought by Halligan.

As Federalist CEO Sean Davis pointed out in an X post, Comey hiring his leak recipients as his legal team not only ​​prevents two direct witnesses of his allegedly illegal behavior from testifying against him, but also potentially places incriminating communication between the three men under the protection of attorney-client privilege.

Understandably, the prosecution asked Judge Michael Nachmanoff last weekend to approve a “filter team” to comb through the evidence in order to — as Politico’s reporting framed it — “clarify Fitzgerald’s role in the 8-year-old disclosures.”

Contrary to Politico’s spin, Fitzgerald’s role needs little additional “clarification.” The Office of the Inspector General report on the investigation into Comey’s leaks already clarified the situation — but perhaps not in the way Politico and Comey would have liked. As The Federalist’s Breccan Thies reported, “An August 2019 Department of Justice Inspector General (IG) report shows that Fitzgerald received detailed memos documenting Comey’s private meetings with President Donald Trump about the Russia collusion probe, with at least one containing classified information.” (Read more from “Is There Anyone On Comey’s Legal Team Who Wasn’t Getting Leaks From The FBI?” HERE)

Wisconsin Public Schools Provide Sanctuary For Accused Groomers And Sex Abusers

/0 Comments/in , /by

What do you get when a teacher’s union stooge steeped in left-wing dogma runs your public school system? Sanctuary for accused groomers and sex offenders.

Such is the case at Wisconsin’s Department of Public Instruction (DPI), run by teachers union pet Jill Underly. The bought-and-paid-for superintendent has presided over an educator licensing scandal that is as abhorrent as it is alarming.

Kudos to Madison’s Cap Times for committing a brazen act of journalism. The left-leaning newspaper’s year-long investigation found DPI “investigated” more than 200 teachers, aides, substitutes, and administrators “accused of sexual misconduct or grooming behaviors toward students” between 2018 and 2023.

“The department’s internal records show these allegations included educators sexually assaulting students, soliciting nude photos from children or initiating sexual relationships immediately after students graduated,” the news outlet reported. “Licensing officials also investigated educators accused of grooming behaviors like flirting with children, spending non-school time alone and isolated with students, or invading students’ personal space by rubbing their shoulders, thighs and lower backs.”

The publication found at least 44 percent of the public education regulator’s license probes over the period have involved sexual misconduct or grooming allegations. Of the 461 teachers investigated over the period for all forms of misconduct, 207 kept their licenses and were allowed to continue to work with children in schools, the Cap Times reported.

China and Russia Reportedly Using ‘Sex Warfare’ to Target Silicon Valley Tech Executives

/1 Comment/in , /by

In a chilling new development straight out of a Cold War thriller, reports suggest that China and Russia are deploying “beautiful women” to seduce top technology executives in Silicon Valley — all part of a broader espionage campaign aimed at stealing America’s most valuable trade secrets.

According to a report from The Times of London, female spies from both countries have been engaging in so-called “sex warfare,” with some even marrying and having children with their targets to establish long-term access to sensitive corporate and defense information.

“It’s the Wild West out there,” said Jeff Stoff, president of the Center for Research Security & Integrity (CRSI) and a former U.S. national security analyst. “China is targeting our startups, our academic institutions, our innovators, our DoD-funded research projects. There’s not enough oversight and action. It’s all intertwined as part of China’s economic warfare strategy — and we’ve not even entered the battlefield.”

The report claims that espionage efforts go far beyond traditional spying. Foreign operatives are said to be infiltrating the tech world through social media, startup competitions, and venture capital investments, exploiting the fast-paced and loosely regulated nature of Silicon Valley’s innovation ecosystem.

Five counterintelligence experts told The Times that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been hosting American startup competitions under the guise of “innovation exchanges” — allegedly to gain access to sensitive business plans and proprietary data.

One counterintelligence source revealed a particularly striking case: a “beautiful” Russian woman who worked for a U.S.-based aerospace company met and eventually married an American engineer, later having children with him. “Showing up, marrying a target, having kids with a target — and conducting a lifelong collection operation, it’s very uncomfortable to think about, but it’s so prevalent,” the source said.

Earlier this year, the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security warned that the CCP had carried out more than 60 espionage operations in the United States over the past four years — though intelligence officials suspect the real number is much higher.

The report also highlights past cases of intellectual property theft tied to China. In 2024, Klaus Pflugbeil of Ningbo, China, was sentenced to two years in prison after attempting to sell stolen Tesla technology for $15 million to undercover agents in Las Vegas. His alleged accomplice, Yilong Shao, remains at large.

The Commission on the Theft of American Intellectual Property estimates that trade secret theft costs the U.S. up to $600 billion annually, with China identified as the primary culprit.
