Israel Accepts Health Authorities’ Gaza Death Toll Is Broadly Accurate, Saying 70,000 Have Died

/0 Comments/in , /by

Israel’s military has accepted the death toll compiled by health authorities in Gaza is broadly accurate, marking a U-turn after years of official attacks on the data.

A senior security official briefed Israeli journalists, saying about 70,000 Palestinians had been killed by Israeli attacks on the territory since October 2023, excluding those missing.

It is the first time Israel has publicly estimated the toll from the war in Gaza. Previously the government and military had only provided figures for militants Israel claimed to have killed.

Gaza health authorities said the direct toll from Israeli attacks had exceeded 71,660 people, with at least 10,000 presumed buried in the rubble of bombed buildings.

For more than two years, Israeli officials and media had attacked the Palestinian figures as “Hamas propaganda” and dismissed them as “not accurate”. (Read more from “Israel Accepts Health Authorities’ Gaza Death Toll Is Broadly Accurate, Saying 70,000 Have Died” HERE)

Epstein Document Dump Rattles Silicon Valley

/0 Comments/in , /by

The latest release of Jeffrey Epstein files from the Justice Department indicates that the late sex offender maintained wider and deeper connections in the tech industry than was previously known. The revelations are now causing fractures in the usually clubby world of Silicon Valley.

Emails and other documents show that Epstein was in contact with at least 20 prominent tech executives, investors and researchers, including some current CEOs, according to an NBC News review of a portion of the documents. In emails, they discussed a wide array of subjects, such as startup investments, the prospects of bitcoin, social gatherings, helicopter rentals and, in one case, negotiations over a corporate exit package.

Two tech billionaires, Tesla CEO Elon Musk and LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, have been locked in a social media struggle for days since the documents were released, trading public insults on X as they have accused each other of having exercised poor judgment in connection with Epstein. Both men were already known associates of Epstein, and the documents released Friday included further details about their connections. Authorities have not accused either of wrongdoing in connection with Epstein.

On Tuesday night, Hoffman and Musk were still battling online. After Hoffman called for justice for Epstein’s victims, Musk taunted him, “While you’re at it, maybe you can help OJ ‘find the real killer,’” a reference to O.J. Simpson.

Hoffman jabbed back at Musk by posting a screenshot of an email in which Musk asked Epstein in 2012, “What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?” (Read more from “Epstein Document Dump Rattles Silicon Valley” HERE)

‘It Would Solve the Mystery’: Mike Benz Flags ‘Bombshell’ Detail in Latest Epstein Files Dump

/15 Comments/in , , /by

Former State Department official Mike Benz called the Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) response to Jeffrey Epstein’s 2011 FOIA request a “bombshell” during a Tuesday episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” . . .

“Jeffrey Epstein was not a public figure at all in 1999. He didn’t come into public awareness, public attention, until 2001, 2002 … he was a private figure in 1999 when he FOIA’d the Central Intelligence Agency for records … anybody who wants to be a hero right now … These are not classified documents,” Benz said. “FOIA responses are not classified. So, anybody right now can FOIA the Central Intelligence Agency for all records and communications related to the CIA’s written communications with Jeffrey Epstein via his lawyer both in 1999 and 2011.”

He then paraphrased the CIA’s 2011 response to Epstein.

“What it says is, ‘We have received your request for your client Jeffrey Epstein’s records search under the Freedom of Information Act. We’ve granted the request to search for all open and acknowledged agency affiliations between Jeffrey Epstein and the CIA,'” he said. “‘We have run that search. And the answer is no documents are responsive to the request.'”

“And then it says in the next paragraph, ‘With respect to your request that touches on classified documents, we can neither confirm nor deny the existence or non-existence of any such documents,'” he continued. “‘So you can consider this a partial denial of your FOIA request.’” (Read more from “‘It Would Solve the Mystery’: Mike Benz Flags ‘Bombshell’ Detail in Latest Epstein Files Dump” HERE)

“Buying and Selling the Bodies and Souls of Men”: US Women Now Using Fat from Dead Humans to “Enhance” Boobs, Butts

/1 Comment/in , , /by

[G]iving new life to the fallen fat is how AlloClae — a glamorous, albeit ghoulish, new advancement in non-surgical cosmetic enhancements — is helping slim centerfolds in NYC and beyond achieve the BBLs and boob jobs of their wildest dreams.

And it’s different from all the other nonsurgical enlargements on the market because, well, it’s reliant on people who’ve kicked the bucket.

If you’re suddenly worried that ticking the organ donor box on your driver’s license could mean you wind up on someone else’s behind in the afterlife, it’s not that simple — the fat can come from full body donations, which are handled in the Empire State by the Associated Medical Schools of New York, which requires a separate, no limitations sign-up. . . 

AlloClae, from Tiger Aesthetics, a tissue engineering company, is the “first structural adipose tissue designed for aesthetic body procedures, providing cushioning, volume and support,” according to its website. . .

The company does not specify where exactly the fat they use comes from. Representatives for Tiger Aesthetics did not immediately respond to The Post’s inquiries about the production, cadaver screening process or the rising popularity of AlloClae, which hit the market in 2025.

Report: Trump to Erect Christopher Columbus Statue Outside White House

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump is planning to install a statue of Christopher Columbus on the south side of the White House, sources told the Washington Post on Wednesday.

The statue will reportedly be a reconstruction of a statue unveiled by former President Ronald Reagan in Baltimore, Maryland, that had been dumped into the city’s harbor by Black Lives Matter rioters in 2020, according to the Post. Bill Martin, an Italian American businessman who helped recover and rebuild the original statue, said the sculpture is expected to be transferred from a Maryland warehouse to the White House in the coming weeks.

The White House said that Trump will continue to honor Columbus, emphasizing that the explorer is a hero.

“In this White House, Christopher Columbus is a hero,” White House spokesman Davis Ingle said. “And he will continue to be honored as such by President Trump.”

Trump has expressed staunch support for Columbus, in part by reinstating Columbus Day in honor of Italian Americans. In October, he signed a proclamation to commemorate Columbus’ life with “reverence and gratitude.” (Read more from “Report: Trump to Erect Christopher Columbus Statue Outside White House” HERE)

‘Pure Comedy Gold’: Watch Trans Dude Get Triggered When Black ICE Agent Asks, ‘Are You a Man?’

/1 Comment/in , , /by

In what could be called “The ICE Man Cometh,” a viral video showing ICE agents in operation is getting plenty of laughs as an officer triggers a transgender individual masquerading as a woman by simply asking, “Are you a man?”

The effeminate individual is initially shown following the black agent, peppering him with questions including: “So how does it feel abducting people from their family? Is that good? Does it make you feel good about yourself? Like yes, families should be ripped apart? Is that your kind of energy? Like we should rip people apart from their family?”

That’s when the agent looked straight into the eyes of the man pretending to be a woman and firmly asked: “Are you a man?”

“Wow! Is that a question?” the trans individual fired back in disgust.

The agent didn’t back down from his view, telling the transgender: “Sir, I need you to move from my vehicle. … What the f***’s wrong with you people?”

Boy, 9, Severely Burned After Microwaving NeeDoh Sensory Toy in Resurfaced TikTok Trend

/0 Comments/in , /by

A 9-year-old boy in Chicago was nearly blinded after he was inspired by an old TikTok trend to microwave his NeeDoh sensory toy — which exploded in his face.

Caleb Chabolla, 9, heated up his NeeDoh Nice Cube in the microwave at his Chicago home after one of his friends told him the trick would make the rubber sensory toy more pliable.

His mother, Whitney Grubb, told ABC 7 she heard a blood-curdling shriek coming from their kitchen as Caleb sobbed, “It burns, it burns!”

The exterior of the cube is made of a non-toxic silicone — but the inside holds a glue-like substance that starts to sizzle and expand until it bursts when exposed to extreme heat.

That same substance splattered all over Caleb’s face when he opened the microwave.

“The right side of his face was kind of melting off, basically,” Grubb told the outlet. (Read more from “Boy, 9, Severely Burned After Microwaving NeeDoh Sensory Toy in Resurfaced TikTok Trend” HERE)

GoFundMe for 300 Axed Washington Post Journalists Surpasses $250K on First Day

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Washington Post Guild created a GoFundMe for the more than 300 journalists that were laid off at the mainstay newspaper Wednesday morning — and were “bowled over” by the influx of donations from near and far.

The GoFundMe, organized by the guild and overseen by economics reporter Rachel Siegel, eclipsed $250,000 in donations Wednesday evening.

Siegel wrote that the funds will help the former staffers with “moving costs, visa expenses, childcare, healthcare, meals and more.”

“What has made The Post special for so long is the people at this company. How resourceful we are. How much we care for each other. And that will continue,” the fundraiser read.

Nearly 2,000 people have already pitched in as of Wednesday evening. The current goal is set at $350,000, but Siegel noted the fundraiser will remain open “at least for the next few days.” (Read more from “GoFundMe for 300 Axed Washington Post Journalists Surpasses $250K on First Day” HERE)

Man Sentenced to Life in Prison for Plotting to Kill Trump in 2024

/0 Comments/in , /by

A man who plotted to assassinate President Donald Trump at his Florida golf course in September 2024, two months before the US election, was sentenced Wednesday to life in prison.

Ryan Routh, 59, was convicted in September of trying to kill then-candidate Trump, the second attempt on the billionaire’s life in the run-up to the vote that brought him back to the White House.

According to an AFP journalist in the courtroom, Judge Aileen Cannon handed down the sentence of life plus seven years after a 90-minute hearing, saying it was “to protect the public from future crime” committed by Routh.

“The evil is in you. Not in everybody else,” she told him.

Routh was arrested on September 15, 2024 after a Secret Service agent saw the barrel of a rifle poking from the bushes on the perimeter of the West Palm Beach golf course, where Trump was playing a round ahead of the November election.

Left-Wing Teachers Across the Country Are Forcing Kids to Protest ICE

/0 Comments/in , /by

Anti-American, left-wing teachers are forcing K-12 kids to join anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) protests all across the country as Democrats and foreign-funded activists continue to march in support of criminal illegal migrants.

A school teacher in Boston, for instance, proudly released a video showing what appears to be first grade children parading inside the classroom with anti-ICE signs, according to the MassDailyNews.

Teachers have a vested interest in Joe Biden-styled, open borders immigration because as more illegals enter the country, more students from families of illegals are fed into the school systems for free education. Hence more teachers are hired and local, state, and federal officials shovel more tax dollars at schools.

For instance, one Colorado school reported that tens of thousands of kids of illegal migrants flooded the state’s school during Biden’s presidency. The city of Denver lavished $356 million on illegals in 2024 alone, and a large portion of that went to city schools.

Teachers are celebrating the anti-ICE protests. Comedian Adam Carolla highlighted another left-wing teacher of very young children leading them to chant anti-ICE slogans:
