RFK Jr. Says FDA Is Investigating Dangerous Abortion Pill After Revealing Biden Admin ‘Twisted The Data’

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. confirmed in a Senate Finance Committee hearing Thursday that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is actively reviewing the drug responsible for more than half of the nation’s abortions.

“We’re getting data in all the time, new data that we’re reviewing,” Kennedy told Republican Sen. James Lankford. “And we know that during the Biden administration, they actually twisted the data to bury one of the safety signals with a very high safety signal, around 11 percent.”

Kennedy not only committed to ensuring “that that doesn’t happen anymore,” but also said “we’re producing … science and gold standard science on that.”

Kennedy affirmed in a later exchange with Montana Sen. Steve Daines that he was unsure of the type of studies FDA Commissioner Marty Makary and his agency are pursuing, but that they are “progressing” and “ongoing.”

“I know I talked to Marty Makary about it yesterday, and he said those studies are progressing and that they’re ongoing,” Kennedy said. (Read more from “RFK Jr. Says FDA Is Investigating Dangerous Abortion Pill After Revealing Biden Admin ‘Twisted The Data’” HERE)

State Will Work to Eliminate All Childhood Vaccine Mandates

Florida will begin phasing out all childhood vaccine mandates, Governor Ron DeSantis announced Wednesday, as part of a sweeping effort to overhaul the state’s public health policies and expand what the administration calls “medical freedom.”

Building on measures enacted during the COVID-19 pandemic, DeSantis unveiled plans to eliminate longstanding vaccine requirements for children in schools and day care facilities. At a press conference in Valrico, DeSantis was joined by Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo, who sharply criticized the mandates as violations of personal liberty.

“People have a right to make their own decisions — informed decisions,” Ladapo said. “They don’t have the right to tell you what to put in your body. Take it away from them.”

Ladapo went further, describing current vaccine mandates as “immoral” and bordering on “slavery.” He said the Florida Department of Health could immediately roll back some of the requirements, while others would need legislative action. Though he did not specify individual vaccines, Ladapo pledged to eliminate “all of them. Every last one of them.” If implemented, Florida would be the first state to dismantle its childhood vaccine mandates to such a sweeping extent.

Currently, the state mandates a variety of immunizations for children entering public schools and licensed child care centers, including vaccines for measles, polio, chickenpox, hepatitis B, and DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis).

DeSantis also announced the creation of a new state-level health policy body, the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Commission, chaired by Lt. Gov. Jay Collins and Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis. The commission, inspired by federal-level efforts led by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., will focus on informed consent, nutrition, parental rights, and the rejection of what DeSantis called “medical orthodoxy that is not supported by data.”

“We’re getting government out of the way, getting government out of your lives,” said Collins during the announcement.

The MAHA Commission’s findings will shape a comprehensive “medical freedom package” to be introduced in the upcoming legislative session. According to DeSantis, the package will codify Florida’s relaxed COVID-era policies — such as the ban on vaccine passports and opposition to school closures — while also targeting broader health mandates.

“I don’t think there’s another state that’s done as much as Florida. We want to stay ahead of the curve,” DeSantis said.

Comedian Says He Was Arrested by ‘Armed Police’ over Transgender Critical Tweets

Award-winning Irish comedy writer Graham Linehan said that he was arrested in London over posts on social media criticising transgenderism.

The creator of celebrated comedy programmes, including Father Ted and The IT Crowd, said on Tuesday that upon recently arriving at Heathrow Airport, he was met by five “armed police officers” who he says arrested him over “three tweets”.

“In a country where paedophiles escape sentencing, where knife crime is out of control, where women are assaulted and harassed every time they gather to speak, the state had mobilised five armed officers to arrest a comedy writer for this tweet (and no, I promise you, I am not making this up),” Linehan wrote on his Substack.

According to the Irish writer, the posts for which he was arrested included one in which he argued that biological men who enter female-only spaces are committing a “violent and abusive act”. “Make a scene, call the cops and if all else fails, punch him in the balls,” Linehan suggested.

Another included a photograph of an LGBTQ+ rally in London, which Linehan captioned: “A photo you can smell”. (Read more from “Comedian Says He Was Arrested in London by ‘Armed Police’ over Transgender Critical Tweets” HERE)

Father’s Eerie Last Message to Wife Revealed Before Mountain Tragedy

A Minnesota hiker was found deceased in Wyoming’s Bighorn Mountains nearly a month after he sent a final text message to his wife and was not heard from again, authorities said Thursday.

The body of Grant Gardner, 38, was found underneath a ledge near the summit of the 13,000-foot Cloud Peak by a professional climbing team from North Carolina, the Big Horn County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.

“While it’s not the outcome we hoped for, we are hopeful this will provide much needed peace and closure to the family,” the sheriff’s office said.

Gardner went missing on July 29 in the Cloud Peak Wilderness, where he had planned a three-day hike through the Misty Moon Lake area before eventually summiting Cloud Peak.

Phone records showed Gardner’s last known contact was a message to his wife on that day, “letting her know he’d made it to the summit,” the sheriff’s office has said. Authorities said the text indicated “the climb was more taxing than he expected and he was tired.” (Read more from “Father’s Eerie Last Message to Wife Revealed Before Mountain Tragedy” HERE)

Young Woman’s Life Cut Short After Hospital Visit for Routine Procedure

A 22-year-old law graduate recently died after suffering a rare but catastrophic allergic reaction during a routine CT scan, shining a spotlight on the risks of a procedure millions undergo every year.

Letícia Paul, who had recently earned her law degree and was pursuing postgraduate studies in real estate and business law, went into anaphylactic shock moments after receiving an iodinated contrast dye, Jam Press reported.

The incident occurred at Hospital Regional Alto Vale in Rio do Sul, in Santa Catarina, Brazil.

Doctors intubated the young woman and placed her under intensive care, but she died on Aug. 20, less than 24 hours later.

Paul had originally visited the hospital for a scan linked to her history of kidney stones. (Read more from “Young Woman’s Life Cut Short After Hospital Visit for Routine Procedure” HERE)

Kirk Cameron Warns Taylor Swift ‘Mocks God,’ ‘Celebrates Explicit Sin’ in Her Music

Kirk Cameron recently sounded the alarm over Taylor Swift’s cultural influence, warning that the pop star “mocks God, normalizes sin” and “glorifies lust and rebellion” in her wildly popular music.

In a recent Instagram post, the 54-year-old father of six, known for his roles in “Growing Pains” and recent faith-based projects, said Swift’s latest work amounts to “discipleship” for young people.

“What do you get when a billionaire pop star releases an album with provocative artwork, lyrics that mock God, glorify rebellion and celebrate explicit sin? You get the most powerful sermon that America’s youth will hear this year,” Cameron said. “She mocks God in her lyrics. She normalizes sin, she glorifies lust and rebellion as if this was womanly empowerment. Her songs are not just music. This is discipleship.”

Cameron added that Swift’s influence over fans, many of whom are teenagers, can unfortunately serve as a substitute for parental guidance.

“She doesn’t have any kids of her own, but raising kids is hard. Why get into all that when she can just disciple your kids and train them up in the way that she would like for them to go?” he said.

Shooter’s Mother Reportedly Worked at Catholic School Targeted in Attack

The mother of the man who carried out a mass shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic school reportedly worked at the institution where the attack occurred, according to law enforcement sources cited by 11Alive.

Authorities identified the gunman as Robin Westman, who opened fire Wednesday morning at Annunciation Catholic School during a Mass service attended by students. Police said Westman killed two children, ages 8 and 10, and injured 17 others, including 14 children, before fatally shooting himself.

During a press conference, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said the victims were shot while seated in the pews. Witnesses described a man dressed in black carrying multiple firearms at the scene. Police confirmed Westman had a rifle, shotgun, and pistol.

A now-deleted YouTube channel bearing Westman’s name appeared to display a cache of weapons alongside anti-Christian messages, racial slurs, and other writings.

Authorities have not released details on the mother’s role at the school or whether it factored into the motive. The investigation remains active with assistance from federal law enforcement.

Study Links Abortion to Higher Risk of Psychiatric Hospitalization

A recent study published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research has found that women who undergo induced abortion face more than twice the risk of psychiatric hospitalization compared to women who give birth.

The study, conducted in Quebec, Canada, analyzed more than 1.2 million pregnancies over a period of up to 17 years. Researchers reported that, per 10,000 person-years, 104 women who had abortions were hospitalized for mental health issues—including psychiatric disorders, substance abuse, and suicide attempts—compared to 42 women who gave birth.

The data also showed that women who had multiple abortions were at greater risk of hospitalization than those experiencing their first abortion. The likelihood of psychiatric hospitalization was highest within the first five years following an abortion. Researchers noted that women with preexisting mental health conditions were more vulnerable, and the study adjusted its findings to account for this factor.

The Quebec study is not the first to suggest a connection between abortion and subsequent mental health challenges. A 2023 study using Medicaid data similarly reported that women who had a first-pregnancy abortion were at higher risk of needing mental health treatment, particularly inpatient care, than those who carried to term.

Separate research has also highlighted medical risks associated with abortion procedures. Reports indicate that more than 10 percent of women who take the chemical abortion drug mifepristone experience serious adverse events, such as hemorrhaging or sepsis. Pro-life groups and some medical organizations have argued that the risks of mifepristone are underreported by both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the drug’s manufacturer, Danco Laboratories.

Costco Stands Firm Against Abortion Pill Sales

In an era when corporate America often bows to the loudest voices on the Left, Costco has taken a stand that deserves recognition. The retail giant has confirmed it will not dispense the abortion pill mifepristone at its 500-plus pharmacy locations.

This decision didn’t come in a vacuum. Faith-based activists, including Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) and Inspire Investing, pressed Costco to resist the cultural push to normalize abortion-on-demand through retail pharmacies. And Costco listened — or at the very least, refused to cave to activist pressure from the other side. That in itself is a win.

ADF’s Michael Ross called it “a very significant victory,” and he’s right. At a time when CVS and Walgreens are moving forward with dispensing abortion drugs, Costco has demonstrated that it will not be swayed into turning its pharmacies into abortion providers. The message is clear: not every corporation has to follow the radical Left’s playbook.

Critics claim this is “short-sighted” and that Costco is undermining “access to safe and FDA-approved medication.” But let’s be honest — this isn’t about access. Abortion pills are already widely available online and by mail. This is about pressuring every major American corporation to carry the water for the abortion industry, no matter the moral or societal cost. Costco has simply said no.

For conservatives, Costco’s decision is not just a victory — it’s momentum. The coalition of pro-life advocates is already turning its attention to Walgreens, CVS, and even Amazon, urging them not to participate in the sale of mifepristone. Every small stand matters, because it reminds corporate America that millions of consumers still believe in the sanctity of life.

Costco has proven that it’s possible to thrive without bowing to the abortion lobby. Let’s hope other retailers take note — and follow suit.

Bryan Kohberger’s Disturbing Porn Searches Ahead of Gruesome Idaho Student Murders Revealed: Report

Twisted murderer Bryan Kohberger made disturbing internet searches for women being raped and sexually assaulted while asleep, according to digital forensics experts who were due to testify at his trial.

Kohberger’s search history included terms like “raped,” “forced,” “sleeping,” “passed out” and “voyeur,” according to Heather and Jared Barnhart, who were hired in 2023 to help investigate the psychopath who broke into an off-campus university house in the middle of the night and slaughtered four students.

“The easiest way to say it is that all of his terms were consistently around nonconsensual sex acts,” Jared Barnhart told The Daily Mail.

Although Kohberger did not sexually assault any of the victims, the father of one of those killed, Kayla Goncalves, believes the killings were motivated by Kohberger’s “weird sexual fetishes.” Others have speculated that his sick plans were forced to change when he was unexpectedly confronted.

Kohberger cowardly refused to reveal his plans or motives when he unexpectedly admitted the slayings. (Read more from “Bryan Kohberger’s Disturbing Porn Searches Ahead of Gruesome Idaho Student Murders Revealed: Report” HERE)
