Army Deletes Video of DC Parade Tanks With ‘Hang Fauci & Bill Gates’ Graffiti

A now-deleted Army video of tanks being loaded onto a train to Washington, D.C., to appear in the massive June 14 military parade for the Army’s 250th anniversary showed a graffitied message spray-painted on the side of the train car – “Hang Fauci & Bill Gates.”

The video, posted to the Army’s X account on Saturday, has since disappeared. It showed an M1A2 Abrams – a 70-ton battle tank – rolling onto a train car at Fort Cavazos in Texas.

The death threat to Fauci and Gates – two people who have drawn the ire of President Donald Trump’s MAGA base – was painted on a train car marked DODX, property of the Defense Department.

Steve Warren, an Army spokesperson, said the Army has no plans to investigate.

“We removed the post once notified of graffiti on the train that didn’t align with Army values,” he said. “We are excited to celebrate 250 years of service to the nation next week.” (Read more from. “Army Deletes Video of DC Parade Tanks With ‘Hang Fauci & Bill Gates’ Graffiti” HERE)

NYT ‘Disinformation’ Experts Blame Online Conservatives, Not Rioters, for LA Riots

Steven Lee Myers, the aptly titled “misinformation and disinformation” writer for The New York Times, published a piece on Tuesday blaming conservatives for the anarchy in Los Angeles. He warns readers not to believe their eyes because, he claims, many social media posts about the rioting have “misleading” photos “rehashing old conspiracy theories and expressing support for President Trump’s actions.”

To bolster his point, he found a so-called expert, Darren L. Linvill, a researcher at the Clemson University Media Forensics Hub, which receives funding from the left-leaning John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.

Linvill told Myers that “conservatives online were ‘building up the riots in a performative way’ to help bolster Mr. Trump’s claims that Los Angeles had been taken over by ‘violent, insurrectionist mobs.’” Linvill argued that as conservatives call attention to the rioting with social media posts, more protesters will show up, making the posts “a bit self-fulfilling.”

In Myers’ misinformation world, social media posts depicting lawless looting, flaming vehicles, and violence against law enforcement are “intended to stoke outrage toward immigrants and political leaders, principally Democrats.” (Read more from “NYT ‘Disinformation’ Experts Blame Online Conservatives, Not Rioters, for LA Riots” HERE)

New Election 2024 Report Raises ‘Serious Questions About The Health Of Michigan’s Elections’

Remember the panic accomplice media outlets created over the 2024 election, that poll workers and elections officials were under imminent threat of attack? Turns out it was another phony five alarm from leftist election integrity-denier groups parroted by their faithful allies in corporate media.

A new report on Election Day in swing state Michigan tracks the real threat to representative democracy came from aggressive leftist groups and complicit poll officials who did everything they could to stymie transparency and cast doubt on the idea of free and fair elections.

‘Fears for Her Life’

In late November 2022, the Associated Press begrudgingly reported that the “chaos” their leftist friends warned would cripple the midterm elections never materialized. Hmmm?

Among the many hair-on-fire narratives, AP helped shape the paranoia that “poll watchers who had been steeped in conspiracy theories falsely claiming that then-President Donald Trump did not actually lose the 2020 election.” And they dutifully reported on Democrats’ worries that new election integrity laws in Republican-controlled states represented “Jim Crow 2.0.”

How stunned AP and the rest of corporate media seemed when those election security measures didn’t suppress minority votes or imperil democracy. (Read more from “New Election 2024 Report Raises ‘Serious Questions About The Health Of Michigan’s Elections’” HERE)

Poll: Majority Approve Trump Deploying National Guard to Quell Los Angeles Riots

A new poll shows that a majority of Americans approve of President Trump deploying National Guard troops to quell the ongoing anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles.

Surveying 1,000 likely U.S. voters on June 10, the Insider Advantage poll showed roughly 59 percent of Americans support the president sending in the National Guard versus 39 percent opposed.

A recent CNN poll also showed that immigrants have dramatically shifted to the right, with a majority trusting Republicans (a 40-point shift) to handle the ongoing immigration crisis over Democrats.

Russians No Longer See U.S. as Chief Enemy, Poll Finds. See What Nation Tops List

The perception of the United States within Russia has undergone something of a sea change over the past year, suggesting that resentments dating to the Cold War may be beginning to thaw, according to new polling.

The share of Russians who view the U.S. as a hostile nation has dropped dramatically since 2024, and now — for the first time in decades — more Russians label other countries as adversarial, a new survey from the Levada Center found.

Further, feelings toward the U.S. have improved substantially, according to the poll, which comes as President Donald Trump attempts to broker a peace deal to end the Ukraine-Russia war.

With that said, not all of the findings were so rosy. Most Russians continue to express pessimism about relations between the west and Russia, which they think will always be founded on mistrust. . .

In the survey, less than half of respondents, 40%, named the U.S. as hostile toward Russia. This is down 36 points from 76% in May 2024, marking a massive shift in opinion in just one year. (Read more from “Russians No Longer See U.S. as Chief Enemy, Poll Finds. See What Nation Tops List” HERE)

Trump Issues Stern Warning to Radicals Planning Nationwide June 14 Protests

As President Donald Trump prepares to lead a patriotic parade on June 14—Flag Day and his 79th birthday—left-wing activists are already organizing counterprotests. While Trump supporters plan to celebrate the flag, the country, and a renewed sense of national unity, progressives are mobilizing to disrupt the event with demonstrations rooted in anti-American sentiment. From burning flags to shouting down veterans, the counterprotests will reflect a growing radicalism on the Left that sees patriotism as a threat.

According to reports, large-scale protests are being organized nationwide to counter President Trump’s upcoming military parade. Organizers are calling it the largest single-day anti-Trump demonstration since the start of his political career. . .

However, Trump warned those who plan to participate in the counterprotests, saying, “You will be met with heavy force.”

“This is people who hate our country, but they will be met with very heavy force,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday. (Read more from “Trump Issues Stern Warning to Radicals Planning Nationwide June 14 Protests” HERE)

Leftist Groups in Florida Promise to Take to the Streets ‘In Solidarity With Los Angeles’

Leftist groups in Florida are promising to take to the streets “in solidarity with Los Angeles,” where rioters have been burning the American flag, waving the Mexican flag, targeting officers, destroying police vehicles, looting, and more, in protest against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations resulting in the arrest of illegal aliens with convictions for murder, sexual battery, and more.

A post shared in a collaboration among Occupy Florida, 50501 Florida, Resistance Support, the Florida Valkryies, and Voices of Florida previews plans for a “RAPID RESPONSE PROTEST” in front of Tampa City Hall on Monday afternoon in support of the L.A. Mexican flag rioters on the West Coast.

“We are taking to the streets in solidarity with Los Angeles and communities across the country to say: NO MORE ICE RAIDS. NOT IN FLORIDA. NOT ANYWHERE,” the description of the post reads.

“Families are being torn apart. Homes raided. Communities terrorized. We will not stay silent while ICE targets immigrants with cruelty and impunity,” the post continues, noting that their movement is “rooted in nonviolence.”

“We expect law enforcement to be present. We cannot guarantee anyone’s personal safety or the security of property. We also cannot guarantee that arrests will not occur. Protesters are committed to non-violence — but we cannot predict how police may respond,” organizers said, preemptively placing the blame on police.

Chinese Illegal Alien Admits To Buying Gun Store So He Could Ship Weapons To North Korea

Officials said Monday that a Chinese national and alleged illegal alien in California purchased a Texas gun store in a plot to ship firearms to North Korea.

Forty-two-years-old Shenghua Wen resided in Ontario, California, and was taken into custody in December 2024, the U.S. Attorney’s Office (USAO) for the Central District of California stated in a press release.

Wen pleaded guilty to “illegally exporting firearms, ammunition and other military items to North Korea by concealing them inside shipping containers,” according to the USAO. He admitted to one count of conspiracy to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) and one count of acting as an illegal agent of a foreign government, the press release said.

Wen is a citizen of the People’s Republic of China and entered the U.S. in 2012 on a student visa, the USAO said. However, he allegedly stayed in the U.S. illegally after his visa expired in December of 2013, according to a plea agreement obtained by the USAO.

Wen was accused of meeting with North Korean officials before entering the U.S. at a North Korean Embassy in China, and these government officials directed Wen to obtain goods on behalf of North Korea, per the press release.

DOJ Employee Charged With Capital Murder After Spiking Pregnant Girlfriend’s Coffee With Abortion Pills: Sheriff

A United States Department of Justice employee secretly spiked his pregnant girlfriend’s drink with an abortion drug to induce a miscarriage without her knowledge, according to cops.

Justin Anthony Banta, 38, who works in the IT department of the DOJ, is charged with capital murder in Parker County, Texas, for allegedly putting “Plan C” abortion drugs in his pregnant girlfriend’s coffee, the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

The couple found out about the pregnancy in September 2024, with the unidentified woman refusing the DOJ employee’s offer to terminate the pregnancy with “Plan C” pills he would purchase online, the statement said.

Banta’s girlfriend was happily six-weeks pregnant when she had a sonogram on October 17 that revealed a strong heartbeat and good vital signs, the Parker County Sheriff’s Office revealed.

Later that same day she met the IT specialist at a coffee shop — quickly suspecting that Banta had spiked her drink with the “Plan C” abortion-inducing pills without her consent.

Authorities Believe They Spotted Ex-Soldier Travis Decker, Who Is Wanted in Deaths of 3 Daughters

Authorities say they believe they spotted Travis Decker, an ex-soldier wanted in the deaths of his three daughters, near a remote alpine lake in Washington state, after receiving a tip from hikers who said they saw a lone person who appeared to be ill-prepared for the conditions.

The Chelan County Sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post Tuesday that tracking teams responded immediately, and a helicopter crew spotted a hiker near Colchuk Lake, in a popular Cascade Range backpacking area called The Enchantments.

The off-trail hiker ran from sight as the helicopter passed, the sheriff’s office said. Teams later found a trail, and K-9 teams tracked the person to the area of the Ingalls Creek Trailhead, south of Leavenworth.

Authorities did not say when they spotted the subject, but late Monday night they issued an alert for residents in the Ingalls Creek and the Valleyhi community to lock homes and vehicles and to be on the lookout for Decker.

Decker, 32, has been the target of a large manhunt ever since June 2, when a sheriff’s deputy found his truck and the bodies of his three daughters — 9-year-old Paityn Decker, 8-year-old Evelyn Decker and 5-year-old Olivia Decker — at a campground outside Leavenworth.
