Melania’s Abortion Support Further Discourages Pro-Life Votes For Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

It shouldn’t have been a surprise. Melania Trump had a successful career as a model. She’s married to one of the most prominent businessmen and politicians in the world. She fits the feminist demographic. Of course she supports abortion.

But for pro-lifers who’ve been arguing that Donald Trump is the pro-life option since 2016, it still hurts a little.

Melania’s book, titled Melania, isn’t set to be released until Oct. 8, but it’s already making headlines. The book reportedly reveals that the former and perhaps future first lady is an advocate of a supposed “right” to abortion, and in one promotional video for the book, Melania speaks explicitly about a woman’s right to what she calls “individual freedom.”

“Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I safeguard. Without a doubt, there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth: individual freedom. What does ‘my body, my choice’ really mean?” . . .

“Why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body?” she reportedly wrote in her book. “A woman’s fundamental right of individual liberty, to her own life, grants her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she wishes.” . . .

That is a radical statement. Melania, it seems, would oppose any restriction on abortion. She’s not even making the argument that many pro-abortion advocates make that abortions should at least be granted in cases of incest, rape, or when the life of the mother is threatened. Any restriction, at all, Melania has decided, violates a woman’s so-called right to choose. Never mind an unborn child’s right to life.

Sick: Woman Calls Helene God’s Punishment on Trump Supporters

/0 Comments/in , /by

Under the aegis of Elon Musk, X has become a place where free speech still enjoys a home. While X has given people access to information, like any other platform, it offers an outlet to sewer-dwellers who cannot wait to politicize a disaster, feebly try to score a few points with the self-styled elite, or just revel in the misery of their perceived or chosen enemies.

Such is the case with one Betsy Packard. According to the New York Post, Packard was at one time listed on the University of Kentucky’s website as an MFA candidate at the school’s College of Arts and Sciences and a graduate instructor. She even had a university email address.

On Sunday, she put up a post on X with a winking emoji that read, “Hurricane Helene…what if GOD is punishing MAGA populations for their hate and hypocrisy? Works for me!”

When X readers took her to task, she was oblivious to the crass nature of her remarks and opted to ratchet up the hate:

“You got hit with an Act of God. Looks like God’s pissed off at you,” she wrote in response to a poster bemoaning the small size of the National Guard deployment following the storm.

“An Act of God hammered you, and you still din’t [sic] hear Him? God is obviously mighty pissed at MAGAs. How can you not see this?” she mockingly asked another user.

P Diddy Pedo Party Lawsuit Snags Another Pro-Israel Lobbyist: Music Exec Lucian Grainge

/0 Comments/in , /by

Billionaire Zionist Lucian Grainge is the Chairman and CEO of Universal Music Group, the largest music company in the world. But since February, he and his company have also been named ” defendants” in a lawsuit against hip-hop impresario P Diddy, whose legal name is Sean Combs . . .

Combs has been hit with five civil lawsuits in four months, while the Department of Homeland Security raided his homes in Miami and Los Angeles in late March. Said to have hundreds of cameras inside his properties, and, naturally, footage of politicians and music industry executives, Combs’ role in a potential sexual blackmail operation with links to the Israel lobby bears shocking resemblance to the Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy. . .

One of the civil lawsuits was filed by Rodney Jones, a former producer hired by Combs. It accuses Diddy of sexual assault. In graphic detail, the lawsuit alleges an Epstein-style conspiracy that includes crimes ranging from the sex trafficking of minors to surreptitious druggings, sexual assault, and gun violence. According to the lawsuit, Combs’ “freak off” parties were paid for by Universal Music Group CEO Lucian Grainge and former Motown Records CEO Ethiopia Habtemariam in cash to avoid detection by federal authorities.

“Defendants executed their RICO Enterprise with threats of isolation from the music and entertainment industry: parading powerful music industry executives… at his parties filled with sex workers, minors, and illegal drugs, such as ecstasy, cocaine, GHB, ketamine, marijuana, and mushrooms,” the lawsuit alleges.

“Mr. Combs had hundreds of cameras in his homes in LA, NYC, and Miami. Mr. Combs required the sex workers and underaged girls to sign NDAs prior entering his parties, and prior to being drugged and sex trafficked at these parties,” the lawsuit adds. Jones “believes that Mr. Combs has recordings of Defendants” – namely Grainge and Habtemariam – “as well as other celebrities, music label executives, politicians, and athletes.” (Read more from “P Diddy Pedo Party Lawsuit Snags Another Pro-Israel Lobbyist: Music Exec Lucian Grainge” HERE)

Father of the Bride Walks 30 Miles Through Hurricane Helene Flood Debris To Walk Daughter Down the Aisle

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hurricane Helene’s destruction was not going to stop David Jones from getting to his daughter Elizabeth’s wedding in Johnson City, Tennessee, Saturday. Not what was supposed to be a two-hour trip from South Carolina turning into a seven-hour drive, nor an additional five and a half hours on foot.

Jones told WJHL that he was diverted multiple times on Interstate 26 before he was finally able to cross the Tennessee state line around 2 a.m. Saturday. There he was met by a state trooper who informed him that he would not be able to go any further. Historic flooding had rendered both the interstate and minor roads impassable.

“You have to understand. My daughter’s getting married at 11:00 this morning, and I’m going to be there to walk her down the aisle,” Jones recalled telling the trooper.
But there was no use protesting. He could go no further via car.

So Jones, a two-time marathoner, did what any sane father of the bride would do: walked the remaining 30 miles.

Sexual and Gender Minorities More Likely To Have Adverse Brain Outcomes

/0 Comments/in , /by

People who identified as a sexual or gender minority (LGBTQ+) had a higher likelihood of adverse brain health outcomes, cross-sectional data showed.

Among nearly 400,000 participants in the All of Us research program, sexual and gender minority persons had higher odds of a composite outcome of stroke, dementia, and late-life depression than others (OR 1.15, 95% CI 1.08-1.22), reported Guido Falcone, MD, of Yale School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut, and co-authors in Neurology.

As a group, sexual and gender minority persons had significantly higher odds of late-life depression (OR 1.27, 95% CI 1.17-1.38).

The group trended toward higher odds of dementia (OR 1.14, 95% CI 1.00-1.29), which was significantly elevated among gender-diverse participants (assigned female at birth OR 1.94 95% CI 1.06-3.56; assigned male at birth OR 2.57, 95% CI 1.25-5.30).

Stroke risk was not higher for the overall group, but it was for transgender women (OR 1.68, 95% CI 1.04-2.70). (Read more from “Sexual and Gender Minorities More Likely To Have Adverse Brain Outcomes” HERE)

Jury Awards $300,000,000 to Former Children’s Hospital Patients Claiming Doctor Sexually Abused Them

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Virginia civil court awarded $300 million to three young women Friday after the women alleged a hospital’s former medical director abused them while they were patients, WTVR reported.

The case arose from a $930 million lawsuit which 46 former patients of Cumberland Hospital for Children and Adolescents in New Kent County filed against the hospital and its longtime — now former — medical director, Dr. Daniel Davidow, WTVR reported.

The Richmond court ruled — after about seven hours of deliberation and on the 15th day of the trial — each of the three women would receive $60 million in compensatory damages and $40 million in punitive damages, according to the outlet.

The three former patients and their attorney, Kevin Biniazan, broke down in tears after the ruling, Biniazan told WTVR. The three plaintiffs’ case is reportedly the first civil trial.

Cumberland’s parent company, Universal Health Services (UHS), and the UHS of Delaware (UHS-D) were co-defendants in the case, the outlet reported.

Women’s NCAA Volleyball Team Forfeits Upcoming Match Amid Transgender Player Controversy

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Boise State women’s volleyball team forfeited its game against San Jose State University Saturday amid controversy surrounding a transgender member of the Spartans’ roster.

It’s the second team this month to opt out of playing against SJSU. . .

Blaire Fleming, a redshirt junior at San Jose State University, plays as an outside and right-side hitter on the women’s volleyball team.

Fleming, a transgender athlete, has played two seasons at SJSU after previously playing at Coastal Carolina.

Earlier this week, Fleming’s teammate, Brooke Slusser, joined former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines and several other female athletes in suing the NCAA over its policies regarding transgender athletes that they claim compromise the fairness and integrity of women’s competitive sports while also putting women at risk.

Activists Defend Canceled Camp for Pedophiles Next to School

/1 Comment/in , , /by

After local outcry canceled a camp for “minor-attracted persons” set for last weekend in Vermont, several organizations are publicly defending those who declare a sexual attraction to children.

MAP Union, or MU, which represents itself as “an international organization representing the interests of minor-attracted people and their allies,” sent a statement to local reporter Guy Page protesting the camp cancelation as “bullying” and violence against “society’s most oppressed minority group.”

“While it is appropriate for law enforcement to investigate crimes when they occur, no-one should face legal sanctions for speaking freely about a sexual orientation they did not choose, nor for meeting up with others who have the same orientation,” a self-described MAP Union spokesperson, who called himself “Percy,” said in an email to Page he published Monday.

Bean noted “Percy” is “likely a pseudonym based on the 19th century English author of Mathilda, a novel about incest between a father and daughter.”

The person calling himself “Percy” also told Bean, “We hope to provide a more balanced approach to MAP advocacy than groups like NAMBLA have been able to in the past.” NAMBLA is the North American Man-Boy Love Association, which effectively disintegrated after a series of FBI stings jailed members for abusing children and trafficking in illegal abuse images.

I’m a Doctor — These Are Common Symptoms of Colon Cancer in Young People

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rates of colon cancer among young people have been steadily rising over the past three decades, even as diagnoses among older people decline. . .

However, there are six clear signs young people should watch out for, with experts advising they see a healthcare professional if they experience any of the below. . .

Recent research found that the most common red flag for colorectal cancer in young people was rectal bleeding, as nearly half of those diagnosed reported blood on their toilet paper or in their toilet bowl. . .

Tiago Biachi, MD, PhD, a GI medical oncologist at Moffitt Cancer Center, in Tampa, Florida, tells Self: “Often, a tumor in your colon or rectum will—like a clog in a pipe—change the way you poop. That may mean frequent constipation, diarrhea, or both. In other cases, people don’t feel ’empty’ after going, or they notice their poop is looking different than before (it’s more narrow, for instance.)” . . .

Persistent belly aching, particularly pains that coincide with mealtime, is a potential symptom of colorectal cancer. However, this pain can easily, and far more commonly, be attributed to menstrual cramping, kidney stones, indigestion, heartburn, IBS, or urinary tract infections.

Miracle Supplement Found to ‘Solidify’ New Memories Within 24 Hours in Historic Breakthrough

/2 Comments/in , , /by

A miracle supplement might help “solidify” new memories within one day of taking it, Harvard Health reports, referring to a breakthrough study led by a team of researchers at Johns Hopkins University.

“We’ve always known that caffeine has cognitive-enhancing effects, but its particular effects on strengthening memories and making them resistant to forgetting has never been examined in detail in humans,” said Michael Yassa, Assistant Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences and senior author.

“We report for the first time a specific effect of caffeine on reducing forgetting over 24 hours.”

Professor Yassa and his team conducted a double-blind trial in which participants who did not regularly eat or drink caffeinated products received either a placebo or a 200-milligram caffeine tablet five minutes after studying a series of images.

Salivary samples were taken from the participants before they took the tablets to measure their caffeine levels. Samples were taken again one, three, and 24 hours afterwards. The next day, both groups were tested on their ability to recognise images from the previous day’s study session. On the test, some of the visuals were the same as those from the day before, some were new additions, and some were similar but not the same.
