‘Presumed’ Human Remains Recovered From Doomed Titanic Submersible

“Presumed human remains” were pulled from debris tied to the OceanGate submersible that imploded en route to the Titanic wreckage 10 days ago, the US Coast Guard said Wednesday.

All five people on board the Titan sub died during its deep-sea exploration on June 18.

“United States medical professionals will conduct a formal analysis of presumed human remains that have been carefully recovered within the wreckage at the site of the incident,” the Coast Guard said in a statement.

The five victims were OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, 61, French Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet, 77, British billionaire Hamish Harding, 58, prominent Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, 48, and his 19-year-old son, Sulaiman Dawood.

Before they were declared dead, the furious search effort for the then-presumed missing Titan vessel before it ran out of oxygen captivated the world. (Read more from “‘Presumed’ Human Remains Recovered From Doomed Titanic Submersible” HERE)

Landmark Study Shows Suicide, Psychiatric Conditions Much Higher in Transgender People

A new Danish landmark study finds that suicide rates and psychiatric conditions are much higher among trans-identifying people.

Trans-identifying people in Denmark had a suicide death rate 3.5 times higher and a suicide attempt rate 7.7 times higher than people who did not identify as transgender, according to the study, which was published Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

There were 92 suicide attempts and 12 suicide deaths among the study’s 3,759 trans-identifying people between 1980 and 2021.

The study analyzed the medical and legal gender change records of nearly seven million people in Denmark, including the nearly 3,800 transgender people, over the last four decades.

Trans-identifying people also tended to die younger overall, whether by suicide or something else, the study found. (Read more from “Landmark Study Shows Suicide, Psychiatric Conditions Much Higher in Transgender People” HERE)

Biden Says the U.S. Wasn’t Involved in Russia’s Coup Attempt. CIA History Suggests Otherwise (VIDEO)

Liberal commentators cheered this weekend as it appeared the walls were closing in on the Putin regime. But the celebrations proved fleeting as the Wagner group’s supposed coup quickly came to an end.

Given President Biden’s lack of transparency since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, his statement on the administration’s lack of involvement in the coup lacked credibility. “We had nothing to do with it,” Biden announced, but many still weren’t buying it.

Some speculated that the U.S., or the CIA in particular, was behind the attempted coup. While we will likely never know what truly happened, but CIA involvement is certainly not outside the realm of possibility. In fact, the CIA has a long record of supporting coups in foreign countries. Here’s seven examples:

. . .The CIA declassified documents sixty years later, finally acknowledging its role in the 1953 Iranian coup. Iranians elected Mohammad Mosaddegh as prime minister in 1951, and he moved to nationalize the country’s British-controlled oil production, which was vital to re-build Europe after World War Two. The CIA also worried Mosaddegh would align Iran with the Soviets.

. . .The CIA also declassified documents in 1997 admitting its role in the 1954 Guatemalan coup against President Jacobo Arbenz. Arbenz initiated land reforms that clashed with American corporate interests and appeared too friendly toward communism. The CIA helped to arm and train guerrillas under General Carlos Castillo Armas, who then led then led an invasion to overthrow Arbenz. Given the small number of forces, the CIA also had a $270,000 budget devoted to “psychological warfare and political action” against the Guatemalan public. The coup was ultimately successful and Armas took control of the country with U.S. support. (Read more from “Biden Says the U.S. Wasn’t Involved in Russia’s Coup Attempt.

‘Planned in Plain Sight’: Senate Committee Lawmakers Blame DHS, FBI for January 6 Security Failures

Senators from the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee became the latest on Tuesday to report U.S. Capitol security failures on January 6, alleging that federal law enforcement agencies had downplayed numerous tips threatening violence ahead of the 2020 presidential election certification.

In a 106-page report by the committee titled “Planned in Plain Sight,” a majority of the staff said the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) were aware of online posts — as early as December 2020 — that posed threats to Capitol Hill that day, yet failed to sound the alarm with other law enforcement.

“My report shows there was a shocking failure of imagination from these intelligence agencies to take these threats seriously, and there is no question that their failures to effectively analyze and share the threat information contributed to the failures to prevent and respond to the horrific attack that unfolded at the Capitol,” committee Chairman Senator Gary Peters (D-MI) said in a news release.

The report comes over two and a half years after the event that involved approximately 2,000 people, some of whom overturned barricades, clashed with police, and stormed the Capitol in an attempt to stop the January 2021 transfer of presidential power.

Officials estimate about 800 people out of the massive crowd breached the Capitol grounds and building, leaving more than 1,000 people charged with crimes linked to the event — including Proud Boys and Oath Keepers members.

Airport Worker ‘Ingested’ Into Jet Engine Died by Suicide: Medical Examiner

The San Antonio International Airport worker who was “ingested” by the engine of a Delta Air Lines jet last week died by suicide, according to the Bexar County Medical Examiner.

The ground worker, who has been identified as 27-year-old David Renner, was killed late Friday night by an Airbus A319 aircraft arriving from Los Angeles. According to a Monday report from the medical examiner, an autopsy on Renner found he was killed from blunt and sharp-force injuries, with the manner of death listed as suicide.

“This isn’t the first time David has tried something like this from my knowledge,” David’s brother, Joshua, told the Daily Mail. “There were other times. This time I thought it was different.”

On Friday, emergency crews responded after Renner was “ingested” into the jet’s engine as the plane was taxiing to its gate, the National Transportation Safety Board said. The plane had one engine on when the incident occurred, and a source told The Guardian that Renner “intentionally stepped in front of the live engine.” (Read more from “Airport Worker ‘Ingested’ Into Jet Engine Died by Suicide: Medical Examiner” HERE)

Hollywood: Punish Everyone Who Promotes ‘Biological Sex’

Over 250 celebrities in film, music and other industries signed an open letter to pressure social media companies to censor certain speech regarding transgender individuals and the transgender movement.

Figures such as Alyssa Milano, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato and many more signed the letter arranged by GLAAD (formerly Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) and the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), which they sent to the CEOs of Meta, YouTube, TikTok and Twitter.

Among other things, the letter takes issue with “misgendering,” or referring to a person by their biological sex rather than their preferred gender, and “deadnaming,” which is calling a person by their birth name rather than their preferred name.

“Targeted misgendering and deadnaming of trans and nonbinary people is a widespread mode of hate speech across all platforms, utilized to bully and harass prominent public figures while simultaneously expressing hatred and contempt,” the letter states.

The letter also urges to combat “disinformation” surrounding trans issues, particularly cross-sex medical interventions for children, which the letter refers to as “medically necessary” health care. The letter demands platforms treat such content in the same way as COVID-19 disinformation. (Read more from “Hollywood: Punish Everyone Who Promotes ‘Biological Sex'” HERE)

Dems: Helping People With Unwanted Same-Sex Attractions Is Criminal

For at least the fourth straight Congress, Democrats have introduced the “Therapeutic Fraud Prevention Act,” trying to criminalize and destroy talk therapy that offers help to members of society with unwanted same-sex attractions.

They insist that such help to those who want it is illegal.

A leftist diatribe about the issue, published online, claimed, within once sentence, the treatments are a “discredited practice” and a “discredited practice.”

But what is discredited are the long-discontinued practices of forced electric shocks and the like that had been used by America’s medical industry in years gone by.

The therapy now involves only talk, and that has been affirmed in some federal courts across the U.S. (Read more from “Dems: Helping People With Unwanted Same-Sex Attractions Is Criminal” HERE)

Russian Coup Leader Was Warned He Would Be ‘Crushed Like a Bug’ if Troops Reached Moscow

Wagner Group commander Yevgeny Prigozhin was warned his troops would be “crushed like a bug” if they reached Moscow during their coup attempt, it was revealed Tuesday.

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said he told the mercenary leader that his men would be utterly destroyed, while describing how he negotiated a deal for Wagner to halt the mutinous march in exchange for immunity, CNN reported.

Lukashenko detailed his frenzied back-and-forth phone calls with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Prigozhin on Saturday to try to halt the coup attempt, during which the Wagner chief mainly swore.

He said Prigozhin had been adamant about advancing to Moscow as a show of protest for the alleged wrongdoings against Wagner, but the mercenary leader quickly changed his tune once the negotiator informed him that he would face devastating results.

“For a long time, I was trying to convince him. And in the end, I said, ‘You know, you can do whatever you want. But don’t be offended by me. Our brigade is ready for transfer to Moscow,’ ” Lukashenko, a longtime Putin ally, told state media.

Trump Dismisses Leaked Audio of Him Talking Classified War Plans as ‘Another Hoax’

Former President Donald Trump dismissed leaked audio of him discussing classified strategies for a potential attack on Iran after leaving office as “another hoax” as he campaigned in New Hampshire Tuesday.

“I would say election interference more than anything else. It’s a disgrace that they can do it,” the 77-year-old told Fox News Digital. “Everything was fine. We did nothing wrong and everybody knows it.”

CNN published the recording Monday evening. Quotes from it had been circulating for weeks and it served as a key piece of evidence in the 37-count federal indictment Trump is facing for alleged hoarding of classified material.

In the tape, which was recorded in July 2021, Trump was reflecting on his presidency to individuals working on his former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows’s memoir.

The former president suggested to his listeners that the plans came from Gen. Mark Milley, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. At the time, Trump was peeved about a New Yorker article in which Milley claimed he fought to prevent the 45th president from attacking Iran during his final weeks in the White House, according to the cable network.

Whistleblower No. 2: Hunter Biden Willfully Evaded Millions in Taxes Through Elaborate Scheme

Hunter Biden agreed to plead guilty last week to two misdemeanor counts of failing to pay taxes on time, but according to the second whistleblower whose testimony was also released last week by the House Ways and Means Committee, he also willfully evaded paying millions in taxes in an elaborate tax scheme.

According to the second whistleblower — the lead IRS case agent for the Hunter Biden investigation whose name is redacted — Hunter Biden set up a scheme involving a Ukrainian natural gas company he sat on the board of and a Chinese business associate to willfully evade paying taxes.

The whistleblower said Hunter Biden had already owed hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes long before his father became vice president. In 2014, when the Joe Biden was in his second term as vice president in charge of Ukraine policy and when Ukrainian natural gas company, Burisma, put Hunter on its board of directors, Burisma paid Biden $666,667 to do little or no work.

According to the whistleblower, Hunter Biden received the money from Burisma, and instead of reporting it as income and paying taxes on it, he put that money into a Chinese firm run by one of Hunter Biden’s associates, who then “loaned” the money to Hunter Biden.
