Lindsey Graham Plays With Toys At Disney World As He Pushes For Military Action In Iran

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republican South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham was photographed at Walt Disney World on Sunday enjoying a fancy brunch after he repeatedly called for further military intervention against Iran.

Graham, who drew ire from both Republicans and Democrats after he called for the use of American troops to seize Kharg Island, enjoyed the $59 all-you-can-eat meal at Chef Mickey’s, a buffet-style dining establishment at the Contemporary Resort near the Magic Kingdom, according to photos posted by TMZ. Graham was also spotted holding a bubble wand while in the Magic Kingdom.

An eyewitness told TMZ that the hawkish senator, who has never been married and has no children, was holding the bubble wand for a girl who was using the restroom.

Graham compared the potential seizure of Kharg Island to the American capture of Iwo Jima in World War II during a March 22 appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” arguing it would leave Iran “defanged.”

“I trust DOD. We got two Marine Expeditionary Units sailing to this island. We did Iwo Jima, we can do this. The Marines, my money is always on the Marines,” Graham told host Shannon Bream. “I don’t know if you take the island or you blockade the island, but I know this the day we control that island, this regime, this terrorist regime has been weakened. It will die on a vine.” (Read more from “Lindsey Graham Plays With Toys At Disney World As He Pushes For Military Action In Iran” HERE)

Trump Admits Ballroom Was Cover For Something Secret Buried Underneath

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Trump said late Sunday that his new White House ballroom will act as a “shed” for a “massive military complex” being built underneath.

“Now, the military is building a big complex under the ballroom, which has come out recently because of a stupid lawsuit that was filed,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One. “But the military is building a massive complex under the ballroom, and that’s under construction, and we’re doing very well.

“We have all bulletproof glass, we have drone-proof roofs, ceilings,” the president added. “Unfortunately, we’re living in an age when that’s a good thing.”

Before confirming the plans Sunday night, Trump said at a cabinet meeting Thursday that the military “wanted” the ballroom renovations “more than anybody.”

“It was supposed to be secret,” Trump said. “But it became unsecret because of people that are really unpatriotic saying things.” (Read more from “Trump Admits Ballroom Was Cover For Something Secret Buried Underneath” HERE)

30-Year-Old California Police Officer Dies In 120-Mile Relay Race

/0 Comments/in , /by

A 30-year-old Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputy died Saturday after suffering a medical emergency while competing in the annual Baker to Vegas Challenge Cup relay race, police said.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) identified the fallen deputy as Levi Vargas in a post Sunday on X. Vargas had served with the agency since 2015, starting as a Custody Assistant before graduating with Academy Class 413 and earning his badge. He was most recently assigned to San Dimas Station.

Vargas, an 11-year veteran with the force, faced a health emergency during the race, according to a post Saturday. “Despite receiving medical care, the Deputy ultimately passed away from their injuries,” the LASD added.

A procession of law enforcement vehicles escorted Vargas’s body from a Las Vegas hospital to the morgue, ABC7 reported, citing video. He was set to return to southern California by aircraft on Monday, according to his family.

Iran Threatens to ‘Rain Fire’ on US Troops

/0 Comments/in , /by

Iran threatened to rain fire on U.S. troops if President Donald Trump escalates the war to a ground invasion as both parties work to come to an agreement to end the fighting.

The war has reached its 30-day mark and there are indications that it could become even more intense — especially if the U.S. sends in ground troops.

Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf recently accused Washington of planning to send ground troops into Iran’s borders, according to CNN.

“The enemy signals negotiation in public, while in secret it plots a ground attack,” he said, further warning that Iranian military forces are already “waiting for American soldiers to enter on the ground so they can rain fire upon them.”

Meanwhile, the United States is still considering its options. While the president has not taken a ground invasion off the table, it appears he is looking for other ways to pressure the Iranian regime.

The president has floated the idea of seizing Kharg Island to squash Iran’s oil revenue while destroying the regime’s ability to close down the Strait of Hormuz to mitigate its impact on the price of oil and other resources.

‘Inappropriate’ Adult Attire at Disneyland Is ‘Absolutely Sinister,’ Warns Former Biden Staffer

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Former Biden White House staffer Yemisi Egbewole posted a TikTok video on March 25 criticizing what she described as inappropriate adult clothing at Disneyland, recounting her recent visit to the California theme park and arguing that social norms in child-focused spaces are being eroded.

“There is something absolutely sinister about an adult who actively chooses not to wear appropriate clothing in an environment that is marketed towards children, and we need to talk about it more,” Egbewole said.

@yemisi.egbewole You can cover yourself appropriately in certain environments and still maintain your free expression, identity, blah blah. I reject the notion that asking you to dress for the environment is oppressive.#houstonrodeo #disneyland #adults #weliveinasociety ♬ original sound – Yemisi Egbewole

“Because we have allowed people to do it … not have a say on how people express themselves. But in doing so, we have eroded rules.”

Egbewole framed her remarks around what she described as unwritten societal expectations that govern behavior in family-oriented settings.

“Rules that don’t have to be on a board … but rules that exist in society without having to say so,” she said. (Read more from “‘Inappropriate’ Adult Attire at Disneyland Is ‘Absolutely Sinister,’ Warns Former Biden Staffer” HERE)

Stripper Reveals US Troops Are Blabbing to Her About Being Deployed — and Blowing Operational Security

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A stripper revealed that on TikTok young US troops are apparently leaking news of their deployments to her while blowing their cash at jiggle joints.

San Diego-based dancer Charm Daze — who has 900K followers online — shared an emotional video late Sunday describing a wave of “depressed” servicemen from nearby military bases lamenting a deployment scheduled for next week. . .

Her video quickly spread online, with viewers reacting to the raw glimpse into what some believe could be the human side of troops bracing for deployment amid rising tensions with Iran.

Others saw a problem — that these soldiers were apparently blowing operational security (OPSEC) in an effort to get a pity party with their lap dance.

“PSA: Don’t tell your adult entertainer you’re deploying,” Marine officer and influencer Kagan Dunlap posted on X. (Read more from “Stripper Reveals US Troops Are Blabbing to Her About Being Deployed — and Blowing Operational Security” HERE)

UK on Iran: ‘Not Our War and We’re Not Going to Get Dragged In’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United Kingdom will not come to the aid of its allies the United States and Israel in Iran, no matter what pressure there is to join and no matter who asks, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has said.

The British Armed Forces will act to defend itself and British citizens in the Middle East but will never be “dragged in” to the war against Iran, Sir Keir Starmer said.

The remarks came in Starmer’s speech launching his Labour party’s local elections campaign for the forthcoming May 7th votes. While geopolitics and foreign war discourse may not seem like traditional fodder for local government elections, which in Britain tend to be fought on neighbourhood issues like refuse collection and road repairs, UK politics has taken on distinctly ethno-religious qualities that have led to claims it is developing a new sectarian politics.

For many voters in the United Kingdom, that the government doesn’t bomb Muslim countries is a primary concern at the ballot box, and several Labour Party MPs are privately concerned they stand to lose their seats to single-issue sectarian parties.

Promising his government wouldn’t engage in the joint American-Israeli attempt to reduce Iran’s capacity to hold the global economy to ransom, Sir Keir said in Wolverhampton on Monday that he wouldn’t change his mind “whatever the pressure and whoever it’s coming from”.

Lisa Murkowski Joins Democrats, Votes for Abortion in VA Facilities

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The U.S. Senate squashed an effort Wednesday by Democratic lawmakers to overturn the Department of Veterans Affairs’ ban on abortions or abortion counseling for VA patients.

In a 50-48 vote, the Senate rejected a proposal by Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, the ranking Democrat on the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee, to reinstate VA coverage of abortions. . .

The VA finalized a rule Dec. 31 that prohibits the procedure at VA medical centers unless the veteran’s life is at risk. The new policy overturned a policy implemented in September 2022 that allowed the VA to provide the procedure or cover the cost in cases of rape, incest or endangerment of the life or health of the mother. . .

Between September 2022 and August 2025, the VA had covered or provided abortions to roughly 100 veterans and 40 CHAMPVA patients, according to data provided by the VA.

Blumenthal’s proposal would have opened debate on whether to repeal the VA’s ban. The vote fell nearly unanimously along party lines, with 50 Republicans voting no and two Republicans, Sen. Susan Collins of Maine and Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, joining 46 Democrats voting yes. (Read more from “Lisa Murkowski Joins Democrats, Votes for Abortion in VA Facilities” HERE)

Illegal Accused Of Murdering Chicago Student Reportedly Missing Part Of Skull, Can’t Read Or Write

/0 Comments/in , /by

The illegal immigrant accused of murdering 18-year-old college freshman Sheridan Gorman is illiterate and lacking parts of his brain and skull, his attorney claims.

Authorities charged Venezuelan national Jose Medina-Medina with first-degree murder after he allegedly shot Gorman on March 19, while she was at a Chicago park with friends hoping to see the Northern Lights. The illegal immigrant — who the Biden administration released into the country — was left developmentally disabled and unable to read or write after surviving a bullet to the head years before entering the U.S., his attorney reportedly said in court Friday.

NewsNation national correspondent Alex Caprariello wrote Friday on X the suspected murderer “was robbed, beaten and shot in the head in 2018 in South America,” leaving him with “bullet fragments in his brain and a portion of a skull.”

“He is now developmentally delayed, has the education of a seven-year-old, and can’t read and write,” Caprariello continued. “Prosecutors say they have overwhelming evidence of his guilt: video that shows him in a mask, gloves, and dark clothes, hiding behind a lighthouse on Lake Michigan, and shooting Gorman in the back, killing her almost instantly.”

Medina-Medina had “no connection whatsoever” to the Loyola University Chicago student he murdered “in cold blood,” the NewsNation correspondent added. (Read more from “Illegal Accused Of Murdering Chicago Student Reportedly Missing Part Of Skull, Can’t Read Or Write” HERE)

Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers put CNN photojournalist Cyril Theophilos in a chokehold before detaining him and a group of journalists.

The CNN team was interviewing Palestinians in the West Bank town of Tayasir when IDF soldiers pointed weapons at the group and detained them for two hours, CNN reported.

The crew was reporting on recent settler attacks on Palestinians, including one attack that left 75-year-old Abdullah Daraghmeh with a fractured skull, the outlet reported.

The attack comes amid a larger trend of Israeli settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank. Last year marked a record high for settlement expansion since the United Nations began tracking settler activity, the BBC reported.

According to the Times of Israel, more than 500,000 Israelis live in West Bank settlements and outposts in addition to approximately 3 million Palestinians. (Read more from “CNN Journalist Put In Chokehold By IDF Soldiers” HERE)
