University Of Washington Scrubbed Pentagon-Funded Professor’s Ties To Chinese Military Firm, Report Finds

/0 Comments/in , /by

One of the most federally funded universities in America quietly removed its professor’s ties to a Chinese company, a new report found.

The University of Washington maintained a years-long research relationship with Shanghai biotech firm Origincell Technology Co., Ltd., primarily through mechanical engineering professor Dayong Gao, according to a Strategy Risks report obtained and reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation. Gao’s cryopreservation research at the Center for Cryo-Biomedical Engineering and Artificial Organs was funded by the Department of War, among other federal agencies, before the department identified Origincell as a Chinese Military Company.

The Department of War first listed the company as a Chinese military company operating in the United States in Jan. 2025, according to a Federal Register notice. The department restated the listing in June 2026 and said Origincell is “indirectly affiliated” with the People’s Liberation Army, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and other Chinese defense-industrial bodies, the designation notice stated.

Origincell builds automated freezers to store human cells and other biological samples, according to the company’s ‘About’ page.

Gao received the “Origincell Endowed Professorship” at a Jan. 2017 ceremony attended by Origincell executives and university officials, including UW Vice Provost Jeffrey Riedinger, College of Engineering Dean Michael Bragg and Mechanical Engineering Department Chair Per Reinhall, a UW Mechanical Engineering release said.

Apple’s revamped voice assistant can dig through users’ private data and act on what it finds.

The company unveiled Siri AI, an artificial intelligence assistant that can reach into the personal text messages, photos and emails across a user’s device to perform tasks for the user, as part of its release of Apple Intelligence for iOS 27, according to Apple’s Monday newsroom announcement. These features arrive more than two years after the company’s June 2024 preview of this personalized Siri.

“Built on Apple Intelligence, this new version of Siri draws on personal context understanding to help users find what they need in the moment across messages, emails, photos, and more,” Apple stated in the announcement.

Siri AI has the ability to draft emails, edit photos and even act upon content actively displayed on an Apple user’s screen, according to the announcement.

The new revamped Siri is able to mimic how users write to individual contacts over email and text with its writing tools, the announcement states. (Read more from “Apple Turns Siri AI Into A Search Engine For Your Most Private Data” HERE)

Illegal Alien Who Went Viral for Screaming He Wasn’t Going Back to Haiti Has Been Deported

/0 Comments/in , /by

Back in January, a criminal illegal alien with more than a dozen criminal convictions went viral for screaming about how much he hates President Trump and loves Democrats like Joe Biden and Barack Obama. The man, identified as Wisteguens Jean Quely Charles (or Chargles in some reports), was arrested near Boston.

“F*** Trump, you feel me? Yo, Biden forever, bro! Thank Obama for everything that he did for me, bro!” he screamed as he was taken away by ICE.

Now Fox News Congressional Correspondent Bill Melugin confirms that Chargles has been sent back to Haiti. This was confirmed yesterday by the Department of Homeland Security.

“DHS confirms to @FoxNews that Wisteguens Jean Quely Chargles was finally deported back to his home country on Thursday, 19 months after his arrest. I’m told he was combative on the plane, which originated in Louisiana, and he made profane, threatening remarks about President Trump and his family while on board,” Melugin wrote. “Per DHS, he had 17+ criminal convictions in just a two-year span in the state of Massachusetts. He was initially admitted to the US in 2013 during the Obama administration and was granted TPS. His TPS was later revoked in 2022. We witnessed him being arrested by ICE in the sanctuary city of Boston on 1/22/2025, just days into the Trump 2.0 administration.” (Read more from “Illegal Alien Who Went Viral for Screaming He Wasn’t Going Back to Haiti Has Been Deported” HERE)

DHS Cracks Down On Immigration Attorneys Who File ‘Meritless’ Asylum Claims

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is cracking down on immigration attorneys who file what the agency calls “meritless” and fraudulent asylum claims, according to a letter obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller.

A letter from DHS General Counsel James Percival to the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) argues that the immigration court system is facing a massive backlog, with nearly 3.5 million cases and 2.3 million asylum claims pending as of July 2026.

DHS attributes much of the backlog to what it calls “meritless asylum claims,” arguing that such claims can delay deportation and allow migrants to remain in the U.S. while their cases are pending.

The letter says claims involving generalized gang violence, domestic violence, economic hardship, and other country conditions often fail to meet the legal standard for asylum.

The department further argues that “meritless asylum applications are filed to obtain work permits, to delay deportation, and to force a release from custody,” while warning that claims without a reasonable legal or factual basis “will be dealt with accordingly.” (Read more from “DHS Cracks Down On Immigration Attorneys Who File ‘Meritless’ Asylum Claims” HERE)

Gay Dad’s Disturbing Diary Illuminates Dysfunctions Of Buying Babies

/0 Comments/in , /by

New York Magazine recently published the sex diary of a 42-year-old gay dad living outside Boston. He and his “husband,” Gavin, have an infant daughter, Sophie, who was presumably born through paid surrogacy.

At 10 a.m., Dad opens Sniffies, a location-based app used primarily by men seeking anonymous sex.

Over the next seven days, he propositions a married man who initially refuses to show his face. He has sex with that stranger on his infant daughter’s leaf-shaped play mat while her stuffed giraffe knocks against his head. He sends Gavin a photo of himself in a jockstrap, hoping he will leave work early. He ends the week having sex with a police officer at a party up against a washing machine.

One infant. Two gay men. No mother. Welcome to the post-Obergefell family.

From the adult’s side, the diary is supposed to read as naughty, funny, and liberated. From Sophie’s perspective, this isn’t a cheeky account about sexual liberation. It’s a record of her fundamental biological and developmental needs being subordinated to a sex-crazed man.

Rep. Thomas Massie Forcing Vote on Pete Hegseth’s Impeachment

/0 Comments/in , /by

Outgoing Republican Rep. Thomas Massie seized the House floor for more than an hour Tuesday afternoon, launching a long-shot effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stemming from his controversial administration over the Pentagon, including the war in Iran.

After sending a news release announcing his intent to impeach Hegseth, Massie quickly appeared on the floor where he stood for more than 67 minutes reading the sweeping 34-page resolution with eight articles of impeachment aloud.

“Secretary Hegseth has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as Secretary of Defense and subversive of constitutional government, to the great prejudice of the cause of law and justice, and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States of America,” Massie read from the resolution, contending that Hegseth will “remain a threat to civilians and the laws of war, the integrity of United States diplomacy, and the Constitution if allowed to remain in office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with his duties and the rule of law.”

“Peter Brian Hegseth thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States,” the resolution states. . .

“Secretary Hegseth has been a transformative leader for the Department of War,” Pentagon press secretary Kingsley Wilson said in the statement, later adding that the “entire Department is unified behind the Secretary’s vision and will continue working to put our warfighters and America first.” (Read more from “Rep. Thomas Massie Forcing Vote on Pete Hegseth’s Impeachment” HERE)

FBI Uncovers Secret Snapchat Account Trump’s Would-Be Assassin Tried to Hide

/0 Comments/in , /by

Newly released FBI files turned over to the Senate reveal a Snapchat account tied to Thomas Crooks, the man who attempted to assassinate President Donald Trump.

The federal documents turned over to the Senate, first reported by the New York Post, revealed that FBI agents located a Snapchat account belonging to Crooks with the username “tom_crooks19.”

Crooks killed one person and seriously injured two others during his attempt to assassinate Trump July 13, 2024.

According to the FBI documents, an Amazon account was also located. Crooks also had an account with Mailfence, an encrypted email service, which the documents say he logged into multiple times between April 15, 2024, and July 8, 2024. He also used a Gmail account.

Retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent Jason Pack told Fox News Digital the Snapchat account may hold a “treasure trove” of evidence.

“When you snap and that picture goes away that everything is gone, and that’s not true. When I’ve served search warrants, there’s been a treasure trove of information that has come back,” Pack said. “It’s not like some people think when you’ve snapped, and then it goes away, it’s totally gone. That’s not entirely the case.” (Read more from “FBI Uncovers Secret Snapchat Account Trump’s Would-Be Assassin Tried to Hide” HERE)

Joe Rogan Has ‘Crazy Hope’ that AI Could Take Over Government to Prevent Military Conflict

/0 Comments/in , /by

Joe Rogan said Tuesday that he hopes artificial intelligence could eventually take over government and foreign-policy functions, including decisions involving military conflict, as he believes AI could help prevent wars that human leaders have failed to stop.

Rogan, speaking with theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli during a conversation on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” acknowledged that handing government functions to artificial intelligence could alarm people but described it as a possible way to remove human decision-making from international conflicts.

“It sounds like a crazy hope, but my hope is that as AI becomes more and more omnipresent, as we start farming off various tasks to it, one of the things that we’re going to farm off is government,” Rogan said.

“One of the things we’re going to farm off is how we interact with other countries. I know that’s terrifying to people, but just think of the disastrous effects that we’ve had so far with humans doing it.”

Republican National Committee National Committeewoman for Georgia and Humans First Chairwoman Amy Kremer, who has pushed for greater safeguards around AI while opposing a blanket halt to American development of the technology, rejected Rogan’s proposal.

Border Patrol Agents Make Shocking Discovery as Dozens of Illegal Migrants Stuffed in Back of Truck

/1 Comment/in , /by

Border Patrol agents made a startling discovery in the scorching California desert after finding 31 migrants allegedly crammed into the back of a modified utility truck in a suspected human-smuggling operation.

The packed vehicle was discovered near Ocotillo, a tiny Imperial County community near the US-Mexico border, according to the US Border Patrol’s El Centro Sector.

“Smugglers packed 31 illegal aliens like cargo into a modified utility truck and hauled them through dangerous desert heat near Ocotillo, California,” the agency said.

But the suspected driver apparently wasn’t sticking around to explain.

Border Patrol said the driver ditched the vehicle and fled across the border into Mexico as agents took the group into custody.

However, his getaway didn’t last long. Mexican law enforcement subsequently arrested the suspected smuggler. (Read more from “Border Patrol Agents Make Shocking Discovery as Dozens of Illegal Migrants Stuffed in Back of Truck” HERE)

Common Drug Millions Already Take Could Slash Dementia Chances, Study Suggests

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Commonly used osteoporosis drugs were linked to a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia in a large study of older adults.

Among a group of 121,492 adults age 60 or older, the use of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (NBP) was associated with a 16% lower risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias compared to those who did not take osteoporosis medications.

The risk was 24% less compared to people taking other types of osteoporosis medications.

A nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate is a type of medication used to slow bone loss and reduce fracture risk, mainly in people with osteoporosis. Some common types include alendronate, ibandronate, risedronate and zoledronate.

Osteoporosis occurs when the bones become weaker and more likely to break due to a loss of bone mass, according to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS). The condition is especially common among older adults. (Read more from “Common Drug Millions Already Take Could Slash Dementia Chances, Study Suggests” HERE)
