World’s Most Contagious Disease Rips Across California — as More Than 100 Kids Feared Exposed in Major City

Sacramento health officials are warning of a potential viral explosion after more than 100 children were possibly exposed to measles at an educational enrichment program.

The alarm was sounded after an unvaccinated child, who was infectious at the time, attended the unidentified program in Sacramento County last week.

Public health officials say as many as 130 children may have been exposed to the virus. The enrichment program has reportedly temporarily closed its facility following the incident.

“Measles, one of the most contagious infections, can lead to severe life-long consequences including permanent brain damage and can also be fatal, especially for children,” said Dr. Erica Pan, CDPH director and state public health officer, in a March 6 release.

“The measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine is safe and provides long-lasting protection against measles. Vaccination protects both our own families and those who are too young to be fully vaccinated.” (Read more from “World’s Most Contagious Disease Rips Across California — as More Than 100 Kids Feared Exposed in Major City” HERE)

Canada Reportedly Set To Surpass 100,000 Assisted Suicides

Canada is closing in on 100,000 deaths through its government-assisted suicide program, a threshold no modern nation has reached.

The Euthanasia Prevention Coalition (EPC) estimates approximately 94,125 Canadians died through Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) from legalization through the end of 2025, LifeNews reported. The group projects the country will cross the six-figure mark by mid-to-late April 2026. Ontario alone recorded 5,303 MAID deaths in 2025, a 7.2% jump from the previous year, suggesting the pace is accelerating rather than leveling off.

Official government data backs that trajectory. Health Canada’s Sixth Annual Report confirmed 76,475 cumulative assisted suicide deaths through Dec. 31, 2024. The program took 16,499 lives that year, accounting for 5.1% of all Canadian deaths and a 6.9% increase over 2023.

Those figures dwarf every other country with legalized euthanasia. The United States recorded just 5,329 assisted suicide deaths across 23 years of state-level programs, according to the National Post. Belgium tallied 33,647 over two decades. Switzerland logged 8,738 in a similar span. Only the Netherlands posted a higher percentage of total deaths from euthanasia at 5.8%, but its smaller population yielded far fewer raw cases, 9,958 in 2024 compared to Canada’s 16,499.

Inseparable Couple of 70 Years Died Holding Hands After Tragic Car Crash: ‘Quite the Pair’

A beloved Maryland couple who were married for 70 years died holding hands in their hospital beds after being taken off life support following a horrifying car crash last week.

Kenneth and Marilyn Oland, high school sweethearts who wed in July 1955, died side-by-side Monday in a Baltimore hospital, six days after a car slammed into the side of their vehicle on Route 15 near their Thurmont home, according to their obituary and multiple reports.

Kenneth, 90, who was driving, and his 88-year-old wife were rushed to the hospital and placed on life support after suffering complications from the collision.

“I don’t think one could’ve lasted without the other,” their heartbroken friend, Nancy Echard, told Fox 5.

“That’s how tight they were. You always saw them together, no matter where you were.” (Read more from “Inseparable Couple of 70 Years Died Holding Hands After Tragic Car Crash: ‘Quite the Pair’” HERE)

GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales admits to having affair with ex-aide who burned herself to death: ‘I made a mistake’

Embattled Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales, who just advanced to a runoff in his Texas district’s primary election, admitted on Wednesday that he had an extramarital affair with a staffer who later fatally set herself on fire.

“I made a mistake, and I had a lapse in judgment,” Gonzales said during an interview on “The Joe Pags Show,” a day after Tuesday’s Republican House primary election.

“And there was a lack of faith,” the congressman continued. “And I take full responsibility for those actions.”

Gonzales indicated that he has “reconciled” with his wife since the May 2024 affair with his late staffer, married mom Regina Santos-Aviles.

“I’ve asked God to forgive me, which he has,” Gonzales said.

“When you make mistakes like this, it’s never easy. It humbles you,” he added. (Read more from “GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales admits to having affair with ex-aide who burned herself to death: ‘I made a mistake’” HERE)

Simple Snack Could Help Lower LDL and Support Heart Health, Study Reveals

A simple handful of pecans each day could deliver heart-health benefits, a new study found.

The research, done by the Illinois Institute of Technology and published in the journal Nutrients, analyzed more than 20 years of studies exploring how pecans affect heart and metabolic health. The study was a review of existing research, not a new clinical trial, and examined 52 studies conducted between 2000 and 2025, including trials involving human participants.

The most consistent findings related to cholesterol.

People who regularly ate pecans showed improvements in total cholesterol and LDL, often referred to as “bad” cholesterol, compared to those who did not include nuts in their diets. Some studies also reported healthier triglyceride levels.

Pecans are rich in monounsaturated fats, fiber and antioxidants, which are nutrients commonly associated with improved cardiovascular health, the researchers noted. (Read more from “Simple Snack Could Help Lower LDL and Support Heart Health, Study Reveals” HERE)

Far-Left Politician’s Shocking Marriage Secret — as She Lobbies Against Bombings

Fatima Iqbal-Zubair, a far-left Democrat running in California’s 65th Assembly District, is an anti-war climate activist who’s called to defund the Pentagon — even as her household has profited from one of the nation’s largest weapons manufacturers.

The DSA-aligned candidate is the spouse of Fazlul Zubair, who works as a systems engineer manager for Raytheon, the same company that built the Tomahawk missiles reportedly used in the Iran strikes over the weekend.

The California Post asked Iqbal-Zubair to respond to the contradiction between her policy positions and her husband’s employment to Raytheon, which rebranded to the RTX Corporation in 2023.

“I have no comment,” she told The Post.

Iqbal-Zubair previously ran for state assembly in 2020 and 2022, when she was endorsed by the Democratic Socialist of America, an organization that pushes anti-war policies and advocates to defund the US military.

The Post reached out to the DSA to ask if it was aware of Iqbal-Zubair’s connection to one of the world’s largest defense contractors, but did not hear back. (Read more from “Far-Left Politician’s Shocking Marriage Secret — as She Lobbies Against Bombings” HERE)

Shocking report exposes terrifying reality of assisted suicide in Canada

Patients in Canada are having their lives ended by assisted suicide on the same day that they submit their paperwork requesting it, according to a shocking new report.

A total of 65 people died under the country’s Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD) program on the same day they applied for it in 2023 in Ontario, a report from the Chief Coroner of Ontario’s Medical Assistance in Dying Death Review Committee (MDRC) revealed.

A further 154 patients were helped by the state with ending their lives the day after the request was made, the report states.

In one shocking case, a woman in her 80s, only referred to as Mrs. B, had her life ended under the country’s euthanasia program despite withdrawing her request — when her husband and caregiver requested it again on her behalf. . .

Her spouse then requested another euthanasia assessment, which deemed Mrs. B eligible despite her expressed desire to opt for palliative care instead. (Read more from “Shocking report exposes terrifying reality of assisted suicide in Canada” HERE)

The Explosive Bible Theory That Links Noah’s Ark to the Eight Modern Blood Types in Humans

A controversial theory linking the eight survivors of Noah’s Ark to the eight human blood types has sparked a debate over the origins of humanity.

According to the Bible, Noah, his three sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives were the only humans to survive the flood, and later became the ancestors of every person alive today.

Some researchers and enthusiasts have pointed to a striking modern coincidence: the eight individuals on the Ark and the eight primary human blood types recognized by medicine.

Human blood is classified using the ABO and Rh systems, with four main groups, A, B, AB and O, each existing as either Rh-positive or Rh-negative, producing eight common blood types: A+, A-, B+, B-, AB+, AB-, O+ and O-.

The theory has ignited a firestorm on social media, where believers hail it as evidence of a divine blueprint. ‘The Bible is a living blueprint of the human body,’ one user proclaimed. Skeptics, meanwhile, have been quick to push back. (Read more from “The Explosive Bible Theory That Links Noah’s Ark to the Eight Modern Blood Types in Humans” HERE)

Despite Promise To Be Pro-Life ‘Ally,’ Trump Admin Won’t Regulate Abortion Drug Endangering Women

It is well established that mifepristone, the popular abortion drug, is deadly to unborn babies and dangerous to women — especially those who take it without medical oversight. Confidence that the Trump administration will do anything to curb the harms wrought by the Biden administration’s radical expansion of mail-order abortion drugs, however, is dwindling.

New polling from Cygnal suggests that 32 percent of Republican voters are unmotivated to show up for the midterms “if Republican leaders weaken or abandon pro-life policies.” Trump, who fears impeachment if the GOP loses control of Congress come November, can’t afford to be shunned by the pro-life base that played a pivotal role in electing and reelecting him. Yet, he has deliberately avoided addressing mifepristone and the Biden-era mail-order scheme that has contributed to the deadly drug’s popularity.

Trump’s silence is unsurprising given his history of blaming pro-life issues for Republicans’ political losses. What is surprising to the pro-life organizations and GOP legislators is that their demands that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration at least restore the mifepristone safeguards present during the first Trump administration have yet to manifest in any measurable action.

Pro-lifers believe this stalling is deliberate. SBA List Pro-Life America and Live Action’s Lila Rose used an anonymously-sourced article claiming the FDA head was “Slow Walking a Long-Awaited Abortion Pill Safety Study” to call for FDA Commissioner Marty Makary’s firing. The FDA called the accusation “baseless.”

Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., told The Federalist in a phone call that he also believes, after conversations with Makary, that the FDA’s “safety study thing is just a dead end.” (Read more from “Despite Promise To Be Pro-Life ‘Ally,’ Trump Admin Won’t Regulate Abortion Drug Endangering Women” HERE)

Married Democrat Candidate Cozies Up To Much Younger Far-Left Opponent Over Drinks

Democratic candidates Daniel Biss and Kat Abughazaleh appeared to cozy up to each other and enjoy drinks at a historic Chicago cocktail bar, less than a month before they are set to face each other in a heated House primary.

Biss, the mayor of Evanston, Illinois, and Abughazaleh, a prominent left-wing social media influencer, are both running in Illinois’ 9th congressional district, which will hold its crowded Democratic primary on March 17 to replace retiring longtime Democratic Illinois Rep. Jan Schakowsky, 81. Both were spotted next to each other at Uptown Chicago’s Green Mill Cocktail Lounge, photos from multiple accounts posted to X on Thursday show.

The photos depict Biss, who is married with two children, seated closely next to Abughazaleh, more than 20 years his junior, in a booth at the century-old bar, with what appeared to be multiple alcoholic drinks on the table.

In one photo, Biss is seen smiling and holding up a glass in the direction of the Abughazaleh. Another shows the mayor tilting his head toward the influencer with just inches separating the two Democrats.

When asked for comment, Biss’ campaign referred the Daily Caller News Foundation to Axios reporter Justin Kaufmann’s X post.
