‘They Probably Gonna Fake Alien Invasion’: 9th NASA Scientist’s Mysterious Death adds to a Pattern Raising Eyebrows

/0 Comments/in , /by

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, better known as NASA, has been in the news a lot lately. The Artemis II mission finally took man back to the moon for the first time in over 50 years. But recent reports of NASA scientists either dying or vanishing, all within a span of three years, have made people more interested in what the agency has been working on behind closed doors.

According to the Daily Mail, Michael David Hicks was the first to die. Hicks’ cause of death was never announced, and there’s no public record of an autopsy. That alone caused considerable controversy with internet conspiracy theorists such as Candace Owens — but more on that later.

Hicks worked as a research scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He was a veteran at the agency, having been there from 1998 to 2022 — just one year before he died under unclear circumstances. He’s reportedly one of the nine people connected to the agency, with intimate knowledge of America’s space or nuclear programs, to have died.

NASA is usually viewed as a unifying institution in the country. Scientists who work there are aware of this role and have often resisted making their political leanings public, even when things aren’t going well. What makes the situation more mysterious is that there are at least three other scientists with close ties to Hicks who worked on NASA missions with him and later went missing. That includes Monica Reza, the new Director of the Materials Processing Group at JPL, who vanished without a trace in June 2025. . .

A graphic compiling the missing persons and deaths has since circulated on X, and people have had wildly varying reactions. One user wrote, “They probably gonna fake alien invasion to establish one world government as a so-called earth defense force.” Another suggested, “Almost like the amount of deaths and suicides related to the Epstein circle.” Candace Owens tied it back to moon-landing conspiracy theories, ominously writing, “Gus Grissom might have a clue” about what could be happening.

Judge Sentences Man To Castration, Lets Him Decide Between Two Options

/19 Comments/in , , /by

A Louisiana judge sentenced a convicted sex offender to castration for a second-degree rape charge April 7, according to KTBS.

Caddo District Judge Ramona Emanuel sentenced Floyd Lee Cathron, 61, to castration after he was convicted of rape involving a teenage family member in March, according to KTBS. Cathron will decide if he receives surgical or chemical castration and will be officially sentenced on April 20. Emanuel factored Cathron’s four felony convictions into her decision. Prosecutors said the latest conviction fits a pattern of sex crimes toward children by the convict going back more than 20 years, among them prior rape and incest offenses.

Cathron also faces up to 40 years hard labor and registration as a sex offender for life, the Caddo Parish District Attorney’s Office (CPDAO) said in a press release. He faces heightened sentencing due to previous convictions for aggravated incest, aggravated rape and two counts of felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile.

A jury issued a unanimous guilty verdict against Cathron on March 18 following testimony from multiple people, including the victim, the district attorney’s office said. The CPDAO said it would pursue castration due to his criminal history and latest conviction.

Local residents spoke to KTBS and reacted to the possibility of Cathron becoming the first man locally to face surgical castration ahead of his April 7 hearing. (Read more from “Judge Sentences Man To Castration, Lets Him Decide Between Two Options” HERE)

Voters Oust Half Of City Council For Greenlighting $6,000,000,000 AI Data Center

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Voters in a Missouri town ousted four city council members Tuesday for supporting an AI data center in the area.

Voters in the town of Festus, Missouri, voted against four members of the town’s eight-member city council who voted to greenlight a $6 billion data center project a week prior, according to St. Louis Public Radio. Anger has been brewing in several localities across the U.S. against data center projects, with voters in a Wisconsin town overwhelmingly opting Tuesday to crack down on a proposed development.

Tuesday’s vote followed months of at times raucous opposition against CRG Clayco’s plan to build a hyperscale data center on 360 acres in the town. The four city council members who lost their reelection bids were defeated by candidates who ran against the data centers and supported more transparency in the data center approval process.

“This data center fight has struck this community to the core and really, honestly ignited a community-driven effort here,” Dan Moore, who defeated pro-data center incumbent Bobby Benz, told St. Louis Public Radio. “People are awake now, and we’re not going to let this continue on anymore.”

Residents opposed to the AI data center flooded a local gymnasium to voice their frustrations during a March 31 city council meeting where the council voted to approve a framework of requirements for CRG’s planned construction, St. Louis Public Radio reported.

Anti-War Activists Rally Against Trump’s Automatic Military Draft Registration: ‘Dangerous data grab’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Trump administration’s plan to implement automatic registration for the military draft is drawing pushback from a coalition of anti-war groups who argue the effort will increase the likelihood of conflict and violate the privacy of US citizens and residents.

The Selective Service System (SSS) intends to register “every male citizen of the United States” between the ages of 18 and 25, beginning in December, to a list of those eligible to serve in the military, rather than wait for them to self-register.

Congress approved the automatic registration mandate last year, prompting more than 40 anti-war, religious, feminist and civil liberties organizations to demand that lawmakers end the registration initiative and repeal the draft.

“You see the diversity of groups that are involved here,” Edward Hasbrouck, one of the organizers of the anti-draft coalition, told The Post — touting a list of backers that includes CODEPINK, the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity and numerous Quaker, Mennonite and Christian organizations.

“I think it’s interesting, in Congress, even though support for continuing draft registration or expanding it or trying to salvage it from failure has been bipartisan, the opposition has also been bipartisan,” he said.

Trump Blames Biden for Allowing ‘Animal’ Haitian Migrant Accused of Bludgeoning Florida Mother to Death into US

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump blamed the Biden administration’s lax immigration policies for spurring the release of a deranged Haitian migrant who allegedly bludgeoned a Florida mother to death in broad daylight — and shared horrific footage of the attack.

Rolbert Jaochin, 40, allegedly beat the 51-year-old mother of two with a hammer and left her to die in the parking lot outside a Chevron gas station in Fort Myers Friday morning, according to court records viewed by The Post.

Trump shared a lengthy post Thursday on Truth Social, calling out the “animal” responsible for the grisly killing.

In the same post, he included an uncensored clip of the attack, calling it “one of the most vicious things you will ever see.”

“To my fellow Republicans, and frankly all Common Sense Americans, NEVER FORGET that Joe Biden and the Democrat Party turned the United States of America into a dumping ground,” Trump seethed.

Trump Goes off on ‘NUT JOBS’ Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, Alex Jones over Iran War Criticism

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump lashed out at four right-wing critics of the Iran war Thursday, describing them as “NUT JOBS” and “losers” who will say anything for attention.

“I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon — Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs,” Trump wrote in a lengthy Truth Social post.

“They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too!” the president raged. “Look at their past, look at their record. They don’t have what it takes, and they never did!

“They’ve all been thrown off Television, lost their Shows, and aren’t even invited on TV because nobody cares about them, they’re NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS, and will say anything necessary for some ‘free’ and cheap publicity.”

Trump argued the criticism he’s received from the quartet stems from a desire for “clicks” for their “Third Rate Podcasts.”

CDC: U.S. Birth Rate Hit Record Low in 2025

/0 Comments/in , /by

The U.S. birth rate hit a record low in 2025, according to a new report released by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Last year, there were 3,606,400 births — a one percent decline from 2024. The general fertility rate also fell by one percent from 2024, to 53.1 births per 1,000 women between the ages of 15 and 44, the CDC found.

“The [general fertility] rate has generally declined since 2007, decreasing by 23 percent,” the CDC report states.

At the same time, the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute estimated that more than 1.1 million unborn babies were killed in abortions in 2025.

The CDC also found a decrease in births among teenagers. The rate of births among young women ages 15 and 19 fell by seven percent in 2025, and decreased by 11 percent among 18 and 19-year-olds. (Read more from “CDC: U.S. Birth Rate Hit Record Low in 2025” HERE)

VA State Police Try to Calm Fears of Far-Left Governor Ordering Door-to-Door Gun Confiscation

/0 Comments/in , , /by

On Thursday the Virginia State Police (VSP) used an X post to try to calm fears that Democrat Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s gun control push will result in state police going door-to-door to confiscate firearms.

The gun ban, SB 749, targets so-called “assault weapons.” Breitbart News reported SB 749’s passage through the Virginia legislature, noting that the bill headed to Spanberger’s desk.

Although the SB 749 contains a grandfather clause allowing current owners of prohibited guns to continue possessing them, it makes clear that the possession of said guns will be illegal unless the firearm was in the possession of the individual prior to July 1, 2026.

Fears of door-to-door confiscation of banned guns arose, and the VSP’s X post appears to be an attempt to quell anxiety. (Read more from “VA State Police Try to Calm Fears of Far-Left Governor Ordering Door-to-Door Gun Confiscation” HERE)

Eligible Young Men will Automatically be Registered for US Military Draft Later this Year

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The federal government plans to automatically register eligible men for the military draft beginning in December, according to a proposed rule published last week.

The Selective Service System (SSS), the government agency that maintains the database of draft-eligible Americans, submitted the “automatic registration” rule change to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs on March 30.

Congress approved automatic registration for the draft last December as part of the 2026 National Defense Authorization Act, must-pass legislation that authorizes funding for military personnel and operations.

“This statutory change transfers responsibility for registration from individual men to SSS through integration with federal data sources,” the agency notes on its website. “SSS will implement the change by December 2026, resulting in a streamlined registration process and corresponding workforce realignment.”

Under federal law, most males between 18 and 25 years old are already required to register with the Selective Service System in case a military draft is authorized. (Read more from “Eligible Young Men will Automatically be Registered for US Military Draft Later this Year” HERE)

Trump Threatens ‘Bigger, and Better, and Stronger’ Military Response if Iran Doesn’t Comply with Deal — or Else ‘Shootin’ Starts’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump threatened to unleash a “bigger, and better, and stronger” military assault on Iran Wednesday if the regime doesn’t live up to its end of a peace bargain.

Trump, in a late night Truth Social post, confirmed that the US forces he surged to the Middle East will remain there until Tehran fully complies with a deal.

“All US Ships, Aircraft, and Military Personnel, with additional Ammunition, Weaponry, and anything else that is appropriate and necessary for the lethal prosecution and destruction of an already substantially degraded Enemy, will remain in place in, and around, Iran, until such time as the REAL AGREEMENT reached is fully complied with,” the president wrote.

“If for any reason it is not, which is highly unlikely, then the ‘Shootin’ Starts,’” he warned, noting it would be “bigger, and better, and stronger than anyone has ever seen before.”

Trump asserted it was “agreed, a long time ago, and despite all of the fake rhetoric to the contrary – NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS and, the Strait of Hormuz WILL BE OPEN & SAFE.”

“In the meantime our great Military is Loading Up and Resting, looking forward, actually, to its next Conquest. AMERICA IS BACK!” the president’s post concluded.
