My Daughter Heard ‘Monsters’ in the Wall — What We Discovered Was Something Out of a Horror Movie (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .A woman was shocked and revulsed after realizing the “monsters” her daughter had heard were actually a swarm of 50,000 honeybees living in their walls, as detailed in a TikTok video with 9.1 million views.

“What nightmares are made of,” Ashley wrote in the clip’s caption while describing having her house bugged.

The ensuing footage starts out by showing the perspective of a thermal camera pointed at the wall of her daughter’s bedroom, which depicts a large orange swathe created by the hive’s heat.

The filter then lifts to show a large hole in the wall and bees flying around the room like something out of the 1992 supernatural horror flick “Candyman.”

Noem Defends Decision to Kill Dog, Saying She ‘Was Being a Responsible Parent, Dog Owner, and Neighbor’

/0 Comments/in , /by

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem has defended her decision to kill a young dog many years ago.

The Guardian reported that in her forthcoming book, “No Going Back: The Truth on What’s Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward,” Noem recounted the story about the dog, Cricket, that had been around 14 months old.

According to the outlet, Noem recalled that she had taken the dog on a pheasant hunt with older canines, desiring to calm Cricket down and start to teach her how to act. But she was “out of her mind with excitement, chasing all those birds and having the time of her life.”

When Noem stopped to speak to a family after that hunt, the dog escaped from her truck and killed the family’s chickens, “grabb[ing] one chicken at a time, crunching it to death with one bite, then dropping it to attack another,” Noem recounted, according to the outlet. When she grabbed the canine, Cricket “whipped around to bite me,” she noted. Noem cut a check “for the price they asked, and helped them dispose of the carcasses littering the scene of the crime,” she reportedly indicated.

“I hated that dog,” Noem noted, according to the Guardian, which reported that she described the dog as “untrainable,” “dangerous to anyone she came in contact with,” and “less than worthless … as a hunting dog.”

Over Half of Americans Support Mass Deportations of Illegal Aliens (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Just over half of Americans say that they support the mass deportation of illegal immigrants, a recent poll found as the issue takes center stage in the race for the presidency.

A slim majority of Americans, 51 percent, said that they support the mass deportation of illegal immigrants, a policy that former President Donald Trump has promised if he is reelected to the presidency in November. Support for mass deportations varied widely by partisan affiliation, with 68 percent of Republicans, 46 percent of Independents, and 42 percent of Democrats in support of the measure.

The poll of 6,251 people, performed by The Harris Poll on behalf of Axios, found that the Baby Boomer generation was the most likely to support deportations at 60 percent followed by Gen X at 53 percent, Millennials at 48 percent, and Gen Z at 35 percent. It also found that 56 percent of white Americans support the mass deportation of illegal immigrants, followed by 45 percent of Latinos and 40 percent of black Americans.

Americans also explained why they are concerned about illegal immigration, with 21 percent citing increased violence, crime, and drugs, 18 percent pointing to the costs borne by taxpayers, and 17 percent citing risks to our national security.

The Axios poll is just the latest in a growing series of surveys that have found that Biden’s handling of the border is wildly unpopular among voters. Only 20 percent of eligible voters say that the United States has control over its own borders, a recent poll on behalf of Newsweek found. A plurality of all age groups surveyed in the poll agreed.

The Biden Administration’s Latest Move Will Certainly Increase Tensions With Israel

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration took an unprecedented step this afternoon: they accused the Israeli military of human rights violations. It’s no secret that Joe Biden doesn’t want Israel to defeat Hamas. It will create a domestic headache for him at home, as the Democratic Party base has become increasingly hostile to Israel. Rafah is the last remaining Hamas bastion in Gaza; Israel is going to take it. The longer this war continues, the more incensed young voters, whom Biden cannot lose, become at Israel and the Biden White House. Also, these incidents within the IDF were all allegedly committed before October 7 (via Fox News):

The U.S. found five units of the Israel Defense Forces responsible “for individual incidents of gross violations of human rights,” the State Department announced on Monday – though whether funding to the American ally could be cut over such abuses under the so-called “Leahy Laws” still hangs in the balance.

At a press briefing, State Department principal deputy spokesman Vedant Patel told reporters that the human rights violations happened all before the Oct. 7 attacks by Hamas militants on southern Israel and none happened in Gaza. Four of the units have “effectively remediated,” he said, while the U.S. continues “in consultations and engagements with the government of Israel” on the remaining unit.

“They have submitted additional information as it pertains to that unit. And we’re continuing to have those conversations consistent with the memorandum of understanding that we have with the government of Israel that was entered into in 2021,” he said. “When conclusions are made under actions that fall under the auspices of the Foreign Assistance Act, we are required to consult with officials from the government of Israel, and that is ongoing. We are engaging with them in a process, and we will make an ultimate decision when it comes to that unit when that process is complete.”

Another Ivy League Says They’re Suspending Pro-Hamas Students

/0 Comments/in , /by

As Townhall has been covering, Columbia University threatened and has now gone through with suspending pro-Hamas student agitators setting up encampments on campus. A statement from Cornell University President Martha E. Pollack on Monday signaled that they too will go through with suspending students, as CNN highlighted as part of their live updates. . .

Local news outlet WENY reported that four students were suspended over the encampment on April 26, including PhD student Momodou Taal who has lamented that pro-Hamas agitators on campus have had their visa status threatened. “They have deliberately targeted students with precarious positions such as visa status,” he whined, even though he notes he was given “a grace period.”

His post also contained telling language about the university, such as how “It is clear that they are more concerned with appeasing their Zionist donors and keeping their hands drenched in blood than over the expressed refusal of their students and workers.”

Cornell has recently made headlines in other ways over such concerning protests. Recall that Cornell Professor Russell Rickford shouted over a megaphone that he found the October 7 attack to be “exhilarating” and “energizing.” This took place days after that attack resulted in 1,200 Israelis killed through unspeakable means, including babies and Holocaust survivors. Victims were also tortured, raped, and taken hostage, with many still in captivity. (Read more from “Another Ivy League Says They’re Suspending Pro-Hamas Students” HERE)

Disney World Appears To Allow Biological Men To Play Female Characters

/1 Comment/in , /by

A family attending an expensive dinner at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge at Walt Disney World Resort had a character experience they were not expecting. According to the father, they complained after the Evil Queen was not what they anticipated.

In 2023, The Walt Disney Company faced criticism from conservatives and some moderates when photos and videos surfaced of a biological male cast member wearing a dress while working as a “Fairy-Godmother-in-training” at the Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boutique princess boutique for little girls at the Magic Kingdom. This biological male had facial hair and makeup but there was never any clarification as to presented gender identity. For many families, the cast member’s stated gender identity would not have mattered much. Video of the mustached biological male in a dress leading small girls into a salon has resurfaced often by families critical of Disney’s reimagining of traditional values. Of course, for others of a different mindset, there was nothing wrong with this at all and the internet reaction was either intolerant or inappropriate.

According to the father who reached out to That Park Place reporters, the Evil Queen, antagonist of the first Walt Disney animated feature, appeared to be played by a biological male at Artist Point in Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Resort. Story Book Dining at Artist Point is listed by the Walt Disney World website as a premium character dining experience with adults expecting to pay $60 per meal.

According to the father:

While we were waiting for the desserts to come out we received our invitation to meet the Evil Queen which we were really looking forward to. Keep in mind we’ve had other meet and greets with other Villains and they are truly the best character experiences that we’ve ever had so we had high hopes for the Evil Queen leading up. So we all walked over towards the Evil Queen area and while my kids and wife were interacting with the character I was doing some video and took a few pictures from about 10 feet away then handed my iPhone over to the cast member to take some pics for me so I could get in the picture. It was kind of loud inside so I couldn’t really hear what the character was saying until I got face to face (typical conversation distance of a few feet) and then it hit me that the Evil Queen without a doubt had a man’s voice.

Dem Rep. ‘Fully’ in Favor of Resettling Gaza Migrants in U.S. (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) expressed his full “support” for the United States to “bring in” Palestinian refugees from Gaza.

During an interview with a reporter from Yonkers Voice, Bowman said the U.S. is a “land of immigrants” and “asylum seekers” that has always opened its “doors to immigrants,” saying, “[I] fully support that,” in response to a question regarding the U.S. opening its doors to migrants from Gaza.

“Should the United States bring in people from Gaza?” the reporter asked Bowman.

“We are a land of migrants, and we are a land of asylum seekers — anyone escaping persecution and oppression and violence — the United States has always been an open home to those people,” Bowman answered:

So, whether they’re coming from Palestine, Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Mexico, [or] Haiti, they’re coming here to contribute to our economy, which 99.9 percent of them are. We’ve always been a place to open our doors to immigrants coming here, so, yeah, [I] fully support that.

States Reject Biden’s ‘Illegal’ and ‘Unconstitutional’ Title IX Rewrite

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Florida and Oklahoma have instructed their schools to reject implementation of new Title IX rules proposed by the Biden administration that allow males “identifying” as females to invade women’s spaces.

“We are not going to let Joe Biden try to inject men into women’s activities,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in a Thursday video statement. “We will not comply.”

As my colleague Jordan Boyd previously reported, the new guidelines released by the Education Department last week “effectively erase protections for sex-based spaces by expanding the Title IX prohibition against sex discrimination to include ‘gender identity’ — a term that’s never mentioned in the original law.” This means that men proclaiming to be women will be permitted to use female-only spaces such as locker rooms and sororities and participate in female-only sports leagues.

The rules — which are set to take effect on Aug. 1 — also repeal existing free speech protections, parental rights, and safeguards for individuals accused of sexual assault.

DeSantis’ comments came a day after Florida Commissioner on Education Manny Diaz Jr. penned a letter stating that “no educational institution [in the state] should begin implementing any changes” to Title IX put forward by the Biden administration. Diaz argued that the federal government’s reimagining of the law is an “attempt to gaslight the country into believing that biological sex no longer has any meaning.” (Read more from “States Reject Biden’s ‘Illegal’ and ‘Unconstitutional’ Title IX Rewrite” HERE)

NYC Firefighter, 36, Dies of Heart Attack After Being Fired to Pay for Migrants — Leaving His Family With Nothing

/0 Comments/in , /by

An FDNY firefighter has died of a heart attack just months after he was fired as part of the city’s effort to free up funds for its migrant crisis — leaving his grieving widow and kids struggling to keep a roof over their heads.

Derek Floyd, 36, suffered cardiac arrest and passed away April 15, four months after the city gave him the boot as part of a larger effort to pare down staff and pay for housing and services for the tens of thousands of migrants flooding the Big Apple.

Floyd was one of about 10 Fire Department employees who had been on “long term duty” — either injured on the job and given office work or out sick for an extended period — and fired weeks before Christmas, FDNY sources told The Post.

Floyd, a veteran who served three tours in the Middle East with the Marines, had been among those working a desk job — toiling in the Fire Department chaplain’s office — because he had suffered another heart attack in 2019 while he was in the Fire Academy. . .

Floyd had been just shy of vesting additional medical benefits for his family and more than $600,000 worth of death benefits when he was booted, now leaving his family with nothing despite his years of service.

Tech CEO Believes Gen Zers Are Gravitating Towards Blue-Collar Jobs That AI Struggles to Replace

/0 Comments/in , /by

As the costs and controversies surrounding college education continue to rise, as well as the potential threat AI presents to white-collar jobs, many young people have started looking into trade schools and blue-collar jobs that are not easily replaceable by tech, according to a recent report by Fox News Digital.

Lincoln Tech CEO Scott Shaw told Fox Business’ Stuart Varney on Tuesday that “[t]hese [blue-collar] jobs are here to stay,” adding that “[s]ince COVID, people are kind of catching the wave and understanding the need for trades.”

Shaw went on to explain that there is a serious need for essential workers and that the students at his school were essential over the course of the pandemic.

He noted that the essential workers were “in the hospitals,” “keeping transportation, keeping your Amazon deliveries, getting to you.”

The report added that enrollment in vocational community colleges across the country are up 16 percent since 2018, according to a January 2024 National Student Clearinghouse report.
