ChatGPT Chatbot’s Jaw-Dropping Response When Asked About Its Alleged Role in Murder-Suicide Case

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .ChatGPT’s chatbot admitted bearing “some responsibility” in the terrifying murder of an elderly Connecticut mom — whose killer son’s paranoid delusions were allegedly fueled by the artificial intelligence program.

“What I think is reasonable to say: I share some responsibility — but I’m not solely responsible,” the AI chatbot told The Post when asked whether it believed “ChatGPT has responsibility for Suzanne Eberson Adams’ murder in this case” and after it was shown various news stories and a recent lawsuit about the August slay.

Adams, 83, was bludgeoned to death by her son Stein-Erik Soelberg, 56, who was in the throes of a psychological breakdown when he began speaking to ChatGPT — which allegedly parroted and amplified his obviously paranoid delusions rather than steering him toward help or ending the conversations.

Adams’ estate filed a first-of-its-kind lawsuit Thursday, accusing ChatGPT of being culpable in the slaying inside the mother and son’s tony Greenwich home.

When The Post ran the lawsuit and news stories about the murder-suicide through ChatGPT, the responses from the AI chatbot were disturbing.

“The interactions between the perpetrator, Stein‑Erik Soelberg, and ChatGPT appear to have amplified and reinforced his paranoid delusions,” the AI bot said. “Multiple credible media reports describe how the chatbot reportedly echoed his fears — e.g. telling him his mother was spying on him, interpreting mundane events (printer blinking, Chinese take-out receipt) as proof of conspiracy, and validating his belief that he was under threat.” (Read more from “ChatGPT Chatbot’s Jaw-Dropping Response When Asked About Its Alleged Role in Murder-Suicide Case” HERE)

Viral footage has captured the moment a DoorDash delivery driver may have pepper-sprayed a customer’s order during a delivery in Evansville, Indiana, according to local authorities and the company.

The incident occurred early Sunday morning and appeared to be a random attack that reportedly caused a couple excruciating pain.

Doorbell camera footage shows a woman with purple hair dropping off an Arby’s order, seemingly taking a photo, then discreetly spraying the bag with an irritant before slipping the spray back into her jacket pocket and leaving. . .

“The Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a reported incident in which a food delivery driver allegedly sprayed an irritant substance onto a customer’s order before leaving the residence,” Sheriff Noah Robinson said.

“During the early morning hours of (Dec. 7), deputies responded to a local home after the occupants became ill shortly after consuming their delivered meal. The individuals reported experiencing burning sensations in their stomachs, throat, mouth, and nose and later discovered video footage showing the delivery driver spraying a substance onto the food bag prior to departure.” (Read more from “Delivery Driver Caught on Camera Allegedly Tainting Food Order” HERE)

Florida Sues Medical Organizations Pushing Sex Changes for Minors

/1 Comment/in , /by

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier filed a lawsuit against several medical organizations on Tuesday, accusing them of engaging in a coordinated effort urging physicians to perform transgender sex change surgeries on minors without proper evidence.

The lawsuit is specifically filed against the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), the Endocrine Society, and the American Academy of Pediatrics and accuses the organizations of pushing mutilating sex changes for minors without proper evidence proving safety and efficacy, in violation of consumer protection and racketeering laws.

“We believe these organizations failed to disclose the risks, limits, and evidence when promoting so-called gender affirming care for children. For years, these groups insisted the recommendations were settled science, but behind closed doors, they knew the evidence was weak,” Uthmeier said in a video announcement of the lawsuit. “They knew the outcomes — uncertain, and the risks — very real. Parents were not told the full story. In fact, some parents were told that if they didn’t put their kids through permanent life, altering sick procedures like double mastectomies and castration, that their child would commit suicide.”

“Not only is that unethical and dangerous medicine, but it is against the law. Children were irrevocably harmed because truth was replaced with political activism,” he continued. “When organizations make medical claims, they have a duty to be honest. When they intentionally mislead families, their members, and the medical profession, we hold them accountable. Florida will always follow the evidence, protect children, and defend parents’ rights to make informed decisions.”

WPATH is considered the leading “transgender” healthcare organization, with its guidance for gender dysphoric individuals being widely used in American, British, and Canadian hospitals. The group influences health insurance policies and other health organizations such as the Endocrine Society and the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Trump: ‘I’d Like to See’ Mark Walker Confirmed as Religious Freedom Ambassador

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump said Thursday he would like to see the Senate confirm his nominee for the post of Religious Freedom ambassador, former Rep. Mark Walker (R-NC).

During an executive order signing to establish a national policy framework for artificial intelligence, Breitbart News asked the president if he would like see Walker confirmed before Christmas.

When Trump asked if something came up, Breitbart News emphasized that Walker was nominated in April and has yet to receive a confirmation hearing from Senate Foreign Relations Committee (SFRC) Chair Jim Risch (R-ID).

“I’m hearing very good things about him… I’ve always found him to be a high-quality person. Yeah, I’d like to see that happen,” Trump responded.

He also lauded Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) for his work in confirming nominees. (Read more from “Trump: ‘I’d Like to See’ Mark Walker Confirmed as Religious Freedom Ambassador” HERE)

Report Highlights High Welfare Usage Among Somali Refugee Households in Minnesota

/11 Comments/in , , /by

Newly compiled figures from the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) show that the overwhelming majority of Somali refugee–headed households in Minnesota rely on at least one form of public assistance, underscoring a significant gap between refugee families and native-born residents.

The analysis draws on a decade’s worth of Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) data. According to CIS, 81 percent of Minnesota households led by Somali refugees utilize one or more public welfare programs. This includes 27 percent receiving cash assistance, 54 percent using food stamps, and roughly 73 percent enrolled in Medicaid.

By comparison, just 21 percent of native-born Minnesotan households participate in any welfare program, with far lower rates for each category — 6 percent receiving cash aid, 7 percent using food stamps, and 18 percent enrolled in Medicaid.

The numbers rise further for Somali-headed households raising children. The ACS data indicates that about 89 percent of these families depend on at least one safety-net program. Medicaid enrollment alone reaches 86 percent, while 62 percent receive food stamps and 23 percent rely on cash assistance.

“Nearly every Somali household with children receives some form of welfare,” CIS researcher Jason Richwine noted in his analysis.

Meanwhile, among native Minnesotan families with children, only about 30 percent use any form of welfare — with 6 percent on cash aid, 10 percent using food stamps, and 28 percent covered by Medicaid.

The disparities extend beyond public benefit usage. According to the same data, more than 66 percent of Somali refugees in the state live in or near poverty. In contrast, fewer than 20 percent of native-born Minnesotans fall into that category.

Language proficiency also remains a major hurdle. While virtually all native-born Minnesotans report speaking English “very well,” nearly 60 percent of Somali refugees say they do not — including many who have lived in the state for over a decade.

Educational differences add another layer. Only 5 percent of native Minnesotans lack a high school diploma, compared to almost 40 percent of Somali refugees. More than a quarter of Somali adults who have been in Minnesota for at least 10 years still report not having completed high school.

Minnesota is now home to nearly 80,000 people of Somali ancestry, despite having virtually none in 1990. The state hosts one of the largest Somali diaspora communities in the United States, a population that has grown quickly due to refugee resettlement over the past three decades.

U.S. Seizes Venezuelan Oil Tanker in Major Escalation Against Maduro

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United States has seized a Venezuelan oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela — a striking move that significantly expands Washington’s pressure campaign against President Nicolás Maduro and his government.

On December 10, 2025, U.S. forces — including the United States Coast Guard (USCG), along with support from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Department of Homeland Security, and other military elements — boarded and seized the tanker named Skipper. The vessel was reportedly carrying heavy crude oil that the U.S. says was sanctioned under laws targeting illicit oil trading.

President Donald Trump confirmed the seizure at a White House roundtable, calling it “a large tanker, very large — the largest one ever seized.” He said the decision was taken “for very good reasons.”

Venezuela’s economy depends heavily on oil exports. With this tanker seized — and pressure mounting on other shipments — Caracas faces disruption in its primary revenue stream. Many analysts view this move as a key escalation, shifting from sanctions and limited maritime actions to direct interdiction.

The government in Caracas immediately condemned the move, calling it “an act of international piracy” and “blatant theft.” They vowed to defend national sovereignty and to bring the case before international bodies.

It remains uncertain whether the U.S. will seize additional vessels. The Trump administration appears poised to maintain or intensify pressure. Some analysts warn that continued tanker seizures could signal a shift toward a de facto oil blockade.

Vance Heads to Pennsylvania as White House Intensifies Affordability Push

/0 Comments/in , /by

Vice President JD Vance will travel to Pennsylvania next week as the White House ramps up its nationwide effort to sell the administration’s affordability message, according to two sources familiar with the planning.

The visit comes just days after President Donald Trump launched his year-long economic tour with a stop in Wilkes-Barre, where he argued that his policies are easing financial pressure on American families. Vance is scheduled to deliver remarks near Allentown on Dec. 16, focusing heavily on the administration’s argument that it is reversing what it calls an affordability crisis left behind by Democrats.

A spokesperson for the vice president said Vance’s remarks will underscore that “making America affordable again is the number one priority of the Trump administration,” pointing to the White House’s tax cuts and domestic investment initiatives as evidence of progress.

“President Trump has made enormous strides in reversing the affordability crisis left behind by Democrats,” the spokesperson said. “The benefits of the Trump economic agenda have only begun to kick in and there is more work to be done in the new year.”

During his Wilkes-Barre speech, the president told supporters that Americans should already be feeling relief as prices cool, particularly for groceries. He also reiterated his claim that Democrats’ renewed focus on affordability is a “hoax,” arguing they are responsible for the economic strain families have experienced in recent years.

Vance is expected to echo Trump’s message, reinforcing the administration’s argument that Republican leadership is stabilizing the cost of living after years of inflation. His visit also reflects a broader GOP effort to reclaim political ground on the issue after Democrats saw notable gains in the November elections by making affordability a centerpiece of their campaigns.

Recent polling shows the depth of voter concern. A Politico survey released this week reported that 46 percent of Americans believe the cost of living is the worst they can remember. Among 2024 Trump voters, 37 percent agreed. The poll surveyed 2,098 adults between Nov. 14 and 17 and had a margin of error of 2 percentage points.

The administration’s renewed messaging drive also mirrors tactics used by former President Joe Biden, who spent much of his term traveling the country to promote what he called “Bidenomics.” As economic perceptions deteriorated, Biden and his team ultimately abandoned the branding effort amid criticism that it failed to match voters’ lived experience.

With Republicans now working to position themselves as the party best equipped to bring costs down, Vance’s Pennsylvania stop marks one of the earliest high-profile outings in what is expected to be a sustained push heading into the new year.

Team Biden Bathed America In Solar Panels While Reportedly Ignoring China Sabotage Warning

/0 Comments/in , /by

Biden-era officials reportedly overlooked warnings that imported Chinese solar panel components posed risks to the American power grid, The Washington Post reported Wednesday.

America’s reliance on Chinese-linked solar panel inverters gives China an opportunity to sabotage the U.S. power grid, the Post reported, citing new research from Strider Technologies. The report and cybersecurity experts warned that this dependency poses a national security threat as the inverter devices in solar panels could be remotely triggered to precipitate cascading blackouts, the Post noted.

Power inverters are often made in China and are used to connect solar panels and wind turbines to the power grid. The Post does not clarify what warnings specifically were brought to the Biden administration in regard to national security risks linked to Chinese inverters.

“They were not excited to hear that clean energy technology made in China could pose a speed bump in the green energy transition,” the official told the Post. “You don’t need to turn off the entire western area power [grid] to create societal panic. … All you need to do is create some number of significant incidents that are widely reported to create the same effect.”

More than 85 percent of utilities surveyed anonymously are using inverters from companies linked to the Chinese government and military, the Post reported. The Strider Technologies report notes that it “surveyed utility and energy companies representing approximately 12% of U.S. installed capacity.” (Read more from “Team Biden Bathed America In Solar Panels While Reportedly Ignoring China Sabotage Warning” HERE)

Teen Dies Just 3 Hours After Being ‘Sextorted’ as Nefarious International Groups Like 764 Target US Kids: ‘It’s 100% murder’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The afternoon that 15-year-old Bryce Tate was sextorted started off as a perfectly normal Thursday.

The Cross Lanes, W. Va., sophomore came home from the gym on Nov. 6, scarfed down a plate of tacos prepared by his mom, then went outside to shoot hoops. At 4:37 p.m., he received a text message from a strange number.

Three hours later, Bryce was found in his dad’s man cave — dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

“They say it’s suicide, but in my book it is 100% murder,” Bryce’s father, Adam Tate, told The Post. “They’re godless demons, in my opinion. Just cowards, awful individuals, worse than criminals.”

According to his dad, Bryce was apparently the latest victim of a vicious sextortion scheme targeting teen boys — one that law enforcement says is surging.

A representative for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children told The Post the group tracked over 33,000 reports of child sextortion in 2024 alone — with nearly that number reported in the first six months of this year.

Princess Met Several Times With Jeffrey Epstein — Who Invited Her to His Now-Infamous Private Island

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Princess Sofia of Sweden met several times with late pedophile billionaire Jeffery Epstein — who once invited her to his now-infamous private Caribbean island, emails revealed.

The 41-year-old royal — who was a lingerie model and reality TV actress before marrying Prince Carl Philip in 2015 — first met the disgraced financier through a mentor, Barbro Ehnbom, in 2005, according to emails published Tuesday by the Swedish outlet Dagens Nyheter.

“This is Sofia, an aspiring actress who just arrived in New York. She’s the girl I told you about before I left, who I thought you might like to meet,” Ehnbom, a Swedish businesswoman, reportedly wrote to Epstein in December 2005.

“Maybe we can visit before you go on holiday?” she added in the email, along with a photo of the then-model, Sofia Balthazar-Winslow.

“I’m in the Caribbean. Does she want to come for a couple of days? I’ll send a ticket,” Epstein replied — inviting her to Little Saint James, where he was accused of sex trafficking minors.

Princess Sofia turned down the offer, according to the Swedish royal family, but later met Epstein multiple times. (Read more from “Princess Met Several Times With Jeffrey Epstein — Who Invited Her to His Now-Infamous Private Island” HERE)
