Illegal Alien, Freed by Biden Administration, Charged With Murdering 19-Year-Old

The tragic death of 19-year-old Adam Luker in a drunk driving crash has brought attention to the case of Antonio Antonio Rodas, a 29-year-old illegal alien accused of causing the fatal collision in Mobile County, Alabama.

Rodas was arrested on May 8 and charged with murdering Luker after a horrifying incident on April 28. Prosecutors allege that Rodas was driving under the influence, three times over the legal limit, and speeding at 88 mph when he ran a red light, crashing into Luker’s vehicle as he turned at an intersection with a green light.

More than a week later, Luker succumbed to his injuries on May 6. A GoFundMe page has been set up to assist Luker’s grieving family. Luker, a graduate of Mary G. Montgomery High School in May 2023, had his life tragically cut short.

At the crash site, investigators discovered Rodas’s vehicle filled with open alcohol containers and reeking of alcohol. Before authorities could apprehend him, Rodas attempted to flee to South America but was intercepted and taken into custody by Mobile County officials.

An investigation by Brendan Kirby at FOX10 News revealed that Rodas had been on the radar of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for nearly six years before the fatal crash. Rodas first crossed the U.S.-Mexico border near Hidalgo, Texas, in December 2018. Despite being arrested in Mobile County for drunk driving in 2021 and again in 2022, ICE did not detain him due to a policy under the Biden administration that does not prioritize deportation for DUI arrests.

In 2022, Rodas pleaded guilty to the drunk driving charge and received a 180-day prison sentence with court-ordered supervision upon release. However, he failed to comply with the terms of his probation, yet the organization overseeing his supervision never sought to revoke it.

Mobile County District Attorney Keith Blackwood criticized the lack of action regarding Rodas’s probation, emphasizing the preventable nature of Luker’s death had Rodas been deported earlier.

Laura Loomer Uncovers Possible Hidden Bombshell in ‘Hush Money’ Case Involving Judge Merchan’s Daughter…

Laura Loomer might have just uncovered one of the biggest stories of the year. If her findings hold up, she’s onto a game-changer in the sham “hush money” case. And it’s all thanks to Judge Merchan’s radically anti-Trump daughter and Democrat Congressman Dan Goldman, who, according to Laura, seems to be knee-deep in a financial cover-up scheme with the judge’s daughter. That’s what Laura uncovered while diving into Congressman Dan Goldman’s finances. Remember, Judge Merchan’s daughter has been a strange and unlikely player in the politically charged “hush money” case. In fact, many argue that President Trump is currently silenced by an unconstitutional gag order, all so Judge Merchan can shield his left-wing daughter and her progressive business associates. Now, it seems this mysterious daughter is taking yet another starring role in this kangaroo court, and it could turn the whole case on its head.

Loomered:

New York Democrat Dan Goldman continues to expand Judge Merchan’s vast conflicts of interest. Rep.Goldman has been mailing checks from his campaign to Judge Merchan’s daughter’s personal home in Richmond, Virginia. Authentic Campaigns is based in Chicago and Washington, D.C. Making matters worse, in an apparent attempt to cover up that he was sending checks to Merchan’s daughter’s home, Rep.Goldman wrote the checks to Authentic Campaign instead of Authentic Campaigns. This is a major FEC violation. Laura Loomer exclusively reported that Rep. Goldman is a client of Authentic Campaigns. Goldman said on MSNBC Monday that he “deposed Michael Cohen and met with him several times to prepare him” to testify against President Trump in Trump’s New York trial. Loomer was the first to report that Judge Merchan’s daughter, Loren, is the partner and part-owner of Authentic Campaigns, a firm whose “featured client “is the Biden-Harris Campaign. Goldman’s actions prove that the rule of law has disintegrated in Joe Biden’s America.

. . .

Laura dropped two incredibly captivating posts on X. The first is a video featuring Congressman Dan Goldman admitting he coached Michael Cohen, alongside a screenshot from Judge Merchan’s daughter’s left-wing organization, “Authentic HQ,” thanking the congressman for “saving democracy.” But it’s the next post that could really stir things up. While digging through Congressman Goldman’s FEC disclosures, Laura stumbled upon what looks like a bombshell: she claims to have found evidence that the congressman, who coached a convicted felon to testify against President Trump, has been funneling money to Judge Merchan’s daughter’s home address. This could point to a cover-up attempt involving payments to her company. If true, it suggests he might have falsified FEC documents to obscure payments to the daughter of the judge presiding over a political witch hunt against President Trump. If true, that would be huge.

Biden Team Makes Pathetic Attempt at Trolling Trump, Claims He Froze During Speech

You get the sense that the brain trust—if one can call it that—over at the Biden campaign is starting to panic as his reelection looks to be increasingly in peril. His poll numbers are terrible against his opponent Donald Trump, and virtually every public appearance is marked by lies, slurred speech and aimless wandering.

You could really feel their desperation in their attempt to claim that it was actually Trump who slurs and freezes during speeches. The team posted a video Sunday of the former president and presumptive GOP nominee speaking at the National Rifle Association (NRA) on Saturday. In the post, the Biden/Harris HQ Twitter account wrote that “Trump starts playing QAnon music during his bizarre slur-filled NRA speech.” . . .

Trump does take a long pause as the music swells, but it certainly looks nothing like a “freeze.” He doesn’t appear to be confused, or looking for words, or unsure what to do next. This by the way occurred after he’d already been speaking for an hour. In other words, the Biden team’s take is completely disingenuous. . .

Meanwhile, a post from a site called Biden’s Wins, who tout themselves as “The largest online community of President Biden’s supporters,” reposted the video and wrote, “BREAKING: Donald Trump just glitched out and froze at his rally tonight. He is clearly unfit for office. Retweet so every American knows Trump is senile.”

Trump didn’t take long to respond, pointing out in a Truth Social post that it’s actually Biden who “freezes all the time, can’t put two sentences together, and can rarely find his way off the stage without help.” This, to me, seems a more effective line of attack than Biden’s because we’ve all seen exactly what Trump is talking about.

Musk Says ‘The New Woke Times Is Truly Unreadable’ as Paper Declares Photography Is Racist

You might remember that catchy little song from The Lego Movie called “Everything is Awesome!!!” I feel like the New York Times plays their own version in the newsroom and it’s titled, “Everything Is Racist!!!”

Here’s their latest attempt to take the joy out of every single thing they can:

The Racial Bias Built Into Photography

Sarah Lewis explores the relationship between racism and the camera.

I mean, you almost don’t even need to read it to get the gist; you can tell just by the headline that white folks are going to be accused of doing something nefarious because that’s the narrative outlets like the NYT are constantly pushing these days. But now, according to the them, the simple act of trying to make a nice photo is racist. Sure.

X/Twitter owner Elon Musk is sick of this stuff:

Former UFC Fighter Dies in Tragic Accident at 33

Former UFC flyweight contender Geane Herrera tragically passed away following a motorcycle accident on Saturday in Tampa, Florida. He was 33 years old.

According to reports from multiple sources, the accident occurred around 10:45 p.m. when Herrera collided with the back of another vehicle at a high speed on Gandy Bridge, as confirmed by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles to TMZ.

Subsequently, Herrera’s motorcycle struck a concrete barrier, ejecting him from the vehicle. Despite emergency response efforts, Herrera was pronounced dead at the scene.

Herrera, who was on the verge of celebrating his 34th birthday, made his debut in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) on August 25, 2015, at UFC Fight Night 73, where he faced Ray Borg. Although he suffered a defeat via unanimous decision in that bout, he bounced back three months later with a victory over Joby Sanchez by TKO.

Following his tenure in the UFC, Herrera transitioned to Absolute Championship Berkut in 2018. He later made his mark in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship in 2021, securing a notable victory over Abdiel Velazquez by TKO.

In the wake of Herrera’s untimely passing, his family established a GoFundMe campaign, and tributes poured in on social media platforms to honor the late MMA fighter. In a heartfelt statement on the GoFundMe page, his family expressed profound sorrow over their loss, describing Herrera as a vibrant individual with a zest for life and a passion for making a positive impact in the world.

“Our family is devastated by the tragic loss of our beloved Geane Carlos Herrera known in the professional fighting world as ‘La Pulga’, whose life was cut way too short at only 33 years old,” the family wrote. “Geane leaves behind a 16-year-old son, his 3-month pregnant girlfriend, mother, father, sisters, a brother and a family that loves him and will deeply miss him.”

Biden Admin Expresses ‘Official Condolences’ for Death of Iranian President Who Was Dubbed the ‘Butcher of Tehran’

The Biden administration on Monday expressed condolences for the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi.

Raisi and several Iranian regime officials were killed in a helicopter crash in northern Iran over the weekend. Raisi, known as the “Butcher of Tehran,” oversaw aggressive foreign policies that increased tensions with the West and authoritarian domestic policies to repress and abuse the Iranian population, whom he was deeply unpopular with.

“The United States expresses its official condolences for the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian, and other members of their delegation in a helicopter crash in northwest Iran,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said in a statement on Monday. “As Iran selects a new president, we reaffirm our support for the Iranian people and their struggle for human rights and fundamental freedoms.”

“We regret any loss of life. We don’t want to see anyone die in a helicopter crash,” Miller told reporters on Monday.

Michael Cohen’s Ex-Attorney Contradicts Trump ‘Fixer’s’ Testimony, Gets Ripped by Judge in Fiery Scene at Hush Money Trial

An attorney who once represented Michael Cohen testified Monday that Donald Trump’s fixer-turned-foe had told him the ex-president “knew nothing” about the hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels — moments before irking the judge by rolling his eyes and muttering on the stand.

Robert “Bob” Costello, the second witness called by Trump’s lawyers at his Manhattan criminal trial, contradicted previous testimony by Cohen that the real estate mogul was aware of the deal to pay Daniels $130,000 to silence her story about having a tryst with him.

“Michael Cohen said numerous times that President Trump knew nothing about those payments, that he did this on his own, and he repeated that numerous times,” claimed Costello, a Trump ally who last week bashed the prosecution’s case in front of Congress.

Cohen also whined to him that “I don’t understand why they’re trying to put me in jail” over nondisclosure agreements, such as the one struck with Daniels, Costello, a former federal prosecutor in New York, added from the stand.

Tensions flared minutes later after Costello grew visibly peeved — muttering under his breath — after Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan sustained several objections from prosecutors to his testimony.

Ex-CDC Director Says It’s High Time to Admit ‘Significant Side Effects’ of COVID-19 Vaccines

Dr. Robert Redfield, former director of the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said Thursday that many officials who tried to warn the public about potential problems with COVID-19 vaccines were pressured into silence and that it’s high time to admit that there were “significant” side effects that made people sick.

Dr. Redfield made the remarks in a May 16 interview with Chris Cuomo on NewsNation, during which he lamented the loss of public confidence in public health agencies because of a lack of transparency around the vaccines, which he said “saved a lot of lives” but also made some people “quite ill.”

“Those of us that tried to suggest there may be significant side effects from vaccines … we kind of got cancelled because no one wanted to talk about the potential that there was a problem from the vaccines, because they were afraid that that would cause people not to want to get vaccinated,” Dr. Redfield said.

In his role as head of the CDC, Dr. Redfield was part of the Trump administration’s Operation Warp Speed, a project to surge COVID-19 vaccine development at a time during the pandemic when little was known about the virus and rapid vaccine rollout was widely seen as key to getting the outbreak under control and lockdowns lifted.

In September 2020, a few months before the first COVID-19 vaccines were given in the United States, Dr. Redfield testified before the Senate that COVID-19 represented the “most significant public health challenge to face our nation in more than a century” and that the prevailing view among scientists at the time was that the overall case fatality rate of the disease was somewhere between 0.4 and 0.6 percent in the United States.

Elite Investor Says Risk of U.S. Civil War Is up to 40% — And Thinks Taylor Swift Could Be a Good President

Ray Dalio warned the probability of a US civil war is as high as 40% — and said he might back Taylor Swift if she ran for president.

“We are now on the brink,” he told the Financial Times in a recent interview, raising the prospect of “much more turbulent times.”

Dalio is the billionaire founder of Bridgewater Associates, the world’s largest hedge fund, and the author of “Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order: Why Nations Succeed and Fail.”

He pegged the chances of a civil war at 35% to 40%, adding that it may not necessarily be a shooting war. . .

The financial historian has repeatedly underscored that extreme levels of government debt, massive wealth inequality, rising internal divisions, and raging external conflicts can pave the way for war, revolution, and a new world order.

Pope Francis Tells CBS’ ‘60 Minutes’ That U.S. Conservative Catholics Have ‘Suicidal Attitude’

In an interview with “60 Minutes” airing this Sunday, Pope Francis takes aim at his “conservative critics” in the United States, reportedly saying a conservative is someone who “clings to something and does not want to see beyond that.”

“It is a suicidal attitude,” the pope said as reported by “60 Minutes,” which released a brief clip of the upcoming interview conducted by CBS’ Nora O’Donnell.

“Because one thing is to take tradition into account, to consider situations from the past, but quite another is to be closed up inside a dogmatic box.”

Francis has occasionally addressed criticism leveled against him during his more than 10 years as pontiff, saying in August 2023 that the U.S. Catholic Church is characterized by “a very strong reactionary attitude.” He has taken actions recently to limit the influence of some of his most prominent clerical critics in the U.S., reportedly taking some Vatican privileges from Cardinal Raymond Burke and removing Bishop Joseph Strickland, a frequent online critic of the pope, from his post as bishop of Tyler, Texas. . .

“The wide-ranging conversation also touches upon the Church’s handling of its own sexual abuse scandals; Francis’ deep commitment to inclusiveness within the Church; the backlash against his papacy from certain corners of U.S. Catholicism; and an exploration of his thinking on surrogate parenthood,” the network says, adding that the interview marks “the first time a pope has given an in-depth, one-on-one interview to a U.S. broadcast network.” (Read more from “Pope Francis Tells CBS’ ‘60 Minutes’ That U.S. Conservative Catholics Have ‘Suicidal Attitude’” HERE)
