Secretary of War Pete Hegseth Orders Nearly All Top US Generals to Attend Mystery Meeting Next Week

/0 Comments/in , /by

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has summoned nearly all of the US military’s top generals to Marine Corps Base Quantico next week — without telling them why.

The directive was given with short notice to generals stationed across the world, sowing concerns and confusion among the highest ranks, the Washington Post first reported on Thursday.

“The Secretary of War will be addressing his senior military leaders early next week,” Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell told The Post in a statement.

Convening so many top military leaders in one location — and without stating a reason — is exceedingly rare, and presents a unique security risk.

“Are we really sure we want all these senior officers in one place?” one military analyst told The Post. “Seems like an ideal situation for the unthinkable.”

With little information, theories abound on what could be behind the call — from major national security issues to cutbacks and policy shifts. (Read more from “Secretary of War Pete Hegseth Orders Nearly All Top US Generals to Attend Mystery Meeting Next Week” HERE)

Shocking Coincidence Links Charlie Kirk Shooting to 1998 Nicolas Cage Movie as Clip Resurfaces

/3 Comments/in , , /by

In a bizarre twist that feels more like a Hollywood thriller than real life, social media users have uncovered a chilling series of coincidences between the recent assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and the plot of a 1998 Nicolas Cage movie, Snake Eyes.

Kirk, 31, was fatally shot in the neck while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10. The suspect, 22-year-old Utah native Tyler Robinson, was arrested shortly after the attack and remains in custody as the investigation continues.

But as the political world reeled from the tragedy, the internet latched onto something else entirely — a resurfaced clip from Snake Eyes, a film directed by Brian De Palma and starring Nicolas Cage as a corrupt Atlantic City detective caught in the middle of a high-profile political assassination.

In Snake Eyes, Cage’s character, Rick Santoro, witnesses the murder of the U.S. Secretary of Defense — a man named Charles Kirkland — during a boxing match. In the film, Kirkland is shot in the neck by a sniper, triggering a tangled conspiracy.

The comparisons online came quickly: Charlie Kirk’s full name? Charles James Kirk. The site of the fictional assassination? A crowded arena. The injury? A gunshot wound to the neck — identical to the real-world event.

That wasn’t all.

The name of the boxer involved in the staged fight that covers the assassination in the film? Lincoln Tyler. The real-life suspect accused of murdering Kirk? Tyler Robinson.

“This is beyond creepy,” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “Same name, same injury, even the same date?”

The web of coincidence stretches even further when considering the filming locations of Snake Eyes. Part of the movie was shot at the Trump Taj Mahal Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City. The film also features a character named Gilbert Powell, widely believed to be based on Donald Trump — Kirk’s long-time political ally and supporter.

Kirk’s connection to Trump was well-documented throughout his career. He was a regular guest at Mar-a-Lago and spoke at numerous Trump-backed events across the country.

“It feels like we’re living in a simulation,” another user wrote. “How can so many details line up like this?”

Terrified Erika Kirk Desperately Tried to Undo Witches’ Curse on Husband Charlie Organized by Woke Website Jezebel Days Before Assassination

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Erika Kirk is said to have asked for help after the liberal website Jezebel paid witches to curse her husband just two days before he was assassinated.

The grieving widow, 36, was ‘genuinely rattled’ over the story, which claimed the author had paid witches on Etsy to curse Charlie, 31, according to Megyn Kelly.

The Kirks were so concerned by the article that they summoned a Catholic priest to undo the curse the night before the conservative commentator was shot dead at Utah Valley University, Kelly revealed on her YouTube show on Tuesday.

The media personality said ‘Erika and Charlie Kirk heard about these curses, and that news genuinely rattled Erika in particular… She was scared.

‘So much so that she and Charlie contacted a friend, who I believe she said was a Catholic priest, and asked him to come over and pray with them over Charlie the night before he was murdered.’

Russian Bear Nuclear Bombers Spotted Off Alaska Coast — Sending US Fighter Jets Scrambling

/1 Comment/in , /by

The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) detected two Russian nuclear bombers and fighter jets operating around Alaska’s air defense zone on Wednesday.

NORAD said two Tu-95 “Bear” bombers, which are nuclear-capable long-range bombers, and two Su-35 “Super Flanker” fighter jets were spotted at the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ), adding that at no time did the jets enter America’s airspace.

“The Russian military aircraft remained in international airspace and did not enter American or Canadian sovereign airspace,” the agency said in a statement.

“This Russian activity in the Alaskan ADIZ occurs regularly and is not seen as a threat,” NORAD added.

The command subsequently responded to the Russian jets by deploying an E-3, four F-16s and four KC-135 tankers to the ADIZ. (Read more from “Russian Bear Nuclear Bombers Spotted Off Alaska Coast — Sending US Fighter Jets Scrambling” HERE)

Zelensky Shares Ominous ‘Bomb Shelters’ Warning for Russian Officials Refusing to End War

/0 Comments/in , /by

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ominously warned Russian officials to find the nearest bomb shelter if they continue to refuse to end the war.

“They have to know where the bomb shelters are,” Zelensky told Axios Wednesday. “They need it. If they will not stop the war, they will need it in any case.”

Zelensky went on to insist Ukraine would only target Kremlin officials and not Russian civilians because “we are not terrorists.”

“They have to know that we in Ukraine, each day, we will answer. If they attack us, we will answer them,” he said.

The threat came soon after President Trump made a surprise pivot by saying for the first time that he believes Ukraine could win the three-year war and retake land captured by Moscow.

Zelensky, who met with Trump this week while he was in New York for the UN General Assembly, said the president had suggested to him that Ukraine should repeatedly strike back against Russia.

BOMBSHELL: Senior DOJ Epstein Investigator Reveals ‘Epstein Was CIA’ — Confirms ‘R-pes Occurred While Bill Clinton Was on the Plane’

/11 Comments/in , , /by

Jeffrey Epstein was working with the CIA, according to a former Department of Justice employee, RadarOnline.com can reveal.

The late sex offender was said to be protected from justice while working with the agency.

The individual, Glenn Prager, who is believed to have previously worked with the DOJ, claimed to Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe, the “[DOJ] didn’t want to go after him [Epstein] because he’s an asset for the United States and Israel. It’s not talked about yet, but it’s soon to come out that he [Epstein] was a CIA informant.”

However, the DOJ was quick to respond to the shocking claim and said in a statement to O’Keefe: “This individual worked at the Department of Justice as a program analyst over fifteen years ago.

“He has no understanding of, or access to, the underlying facts in this investigation. His statements should not be considered accurate.”

They added: “It is disgusting that someone would further exploit victims of sexual abuse by fabricating stories for their personal benefit.”

FBI: Dallas Sniper Who Attacked ICE Facility had ‘Anti-ICE’ ‘Ideological Motive’

/4 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. FBI Director Kash Patel reported that the man who shot at an ICE facility in Dallas on Wednesday morning had an “idealogical {sic} motive.” At least one of the bullets loaded in a clip had “Anti-ICE” marked on the shell casing.

Director Patel said the man fired several rounds at the Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility Wednesday morning. Patel said the man killed one person and wounded several others. He then took his own life as agents approached his rooftop location.

In a statement on social media, Patel wrote:

While the investigation is ongoing, an initial review of the evidence shows an idealogical motive behind this attack (see photo below). One of the unspent shell casings recovered was engraved with the phrase “ANTI ICE.” More updates will be forthcoming.

These despicable, politically motivated attacks against law enforcement are not a one-off. We are only miles from Prarieland Texas where just two months ago an individual ambushed a separate ICE facility targeting their officers. It has to end and the FBI and our partners will lead the these investigative efforts to see to it that those who target our law enforcement are pursued and brought to the fullest extent of justice.

Shooter Joshua Jahn’s brother claims sniper ‘didn’t have strong feelings about ICE’: report

By New York Post. The anti-ICE gunman who opened fire on agents and migrants at a federal facility in Dallas Wednesday, killing one person and wounding two others, “didn’t have strong feelings” about ICE — and knew how to use a rifle, but wasn’t a very good shot, according to his brother.

“I didn’t think he was politically interested,” Joshua Jahn’s brother Noah told NBC News. “He wasn’t interested in politics on either side as far as I knew.

“He didn’t have strong feelings about ICE as far as I knew.” . . .

He said his brother knew how to shoot — and their parents owned a rifle — but that Joshua wasn’t a skilled shooter.

“He’s not a marksman. He would not be able to make any shots like that,” Noah Jahn said. (Read more from “Shooter Joshua Jahn’s brother claims sniper ‘didn’t have strong feelings about ICE’: report” HERE)

Trump, Epstein ‘Best Friends Forever’ Statue Hastily Removed From DC’s National Mall

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A garish statue of President Trump and late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was mysteriously erected on the National Mall on Tuesday — and removed by Wednesday morning.

The bronze sculpture stood about 12 feet tall and appeared to show both men in a merry dance with Trump’s left hand gripping Epstein’s right.

One of the plaques under the figures read: “We celebrate the long-lasting bond between President Donald J. Trump and his ‘closest friend’ Jeffrey Epstein” and attributed the stunt to an anonymous group called “The Secret Handshake.”

“We’re a very small group of citizens who are using art, irony, and humor to express social commentary and spark political conversation in public spaces,” the group told USA Today.

US Park Police hauled the installation away before daybreak Wednesday, telling WUSA 9 that it wasn’t in compliance with a permit that initially allowed it to remain through Sunday evening — though the department did not specify the issue.

FBI Claims It Found ‘Secret’ Files in Trump Nemesis’ Office

/2 Comments/in , /by

The FBI said it recovered classified documents and files marked “secret” from the office of Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, John Bolton.

Agents carried out a sweep of the Washington D.C. office of Bolton, now a vocal Trump critic and nemesis of the president, the same day it carried out an early morning raid at his home in Bethesda, Maryland, on Aug. 22.

An inventory of items seized during the office search, obtained by Politico, shows Bolton had classified files discussing weapons of mass destruction, “secret” travel memos, and “confidential” files related to a U.S. mission to the United Nations and government strategic communications.

The FBI did not specify the volume of material recovered from Bolton’s office but said it included folders marked “confidential” that contained pages labeled “secret.” Court filings indicated that no sensitive materials were removed from Bolton’s home.

In its search warrant application, the FBI said it was gathering evidence related to allegations of conspiracy to gather, transmit, or lose defense information, and the unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents.

Study Reveals Americans Are Spending Shocking Amounts on McDonald’s — Especially Through Delivery Apps

/0 Comments/in , /by

Americans are paying more than ever for fast food — especially if they’re ordering McDonald’s through delivery apps. A new nationwide study by financial technology company Self found that the cost of a typical McDonald’s order has ballooned over the past two years, with third-party apps driving prices significantly higher.

By comparing prices in the 100 largest U.S. cities across DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub, the researchers aimed to capture just how much more people are shelling out for the convenience of delivery.

The order used in the study was the same in every city:

A Big Mac Combo Meal

A Quarter Pounder with Cheese Deluxe Large Meal

A 6-Piece Chicken McNuggets Happy Meal

A Hamburger Happy Meal

In 2025, the average cost of that order at a McDonald’s location was $36.95 — a 23.7% increase since 2023. But when the same meal was ordered through delivery apps, the average price jumped to $62.36, representing a 7.8% increase from two years ago and nearly doubling the in-store cost.

Delivery fees, service fees, local taxes, and tips were all factored into the totals, offering a real-world look at what customers are actually paying. The study even found city-by-city price differences of up to $33.88.

Among the three major platforms analyzed:

DoorDash was the priciest, averaging $63.21 — a 71.1% markup over restaurant pricing.

Uber Eats followed closely at $62.60, with a 69.4% increase.

Grubhub was the “cheapest” at $61.26, but still represented a 65.8% markup.

Though delivery prices are rising, one silver lining is that the average markup over in-store pricing has actually dropped compared to 2023. That year, the average delivery markup was a whopping 93.8%. In 2025, it has decreased to 68.6%, thanks in part to more competitive pricing and fluctuating fees.

The most cost-effective way to enjoy your McDonald’s favorites remains the old-fashioned one: picking it up in person. The study emphasized that delivery should be considered a luxury — especially when ordering multiple meals.
