This NFL Player Confirms He Turned down Opportunity to Become RFK Jr.’s VP

The rumors that Aaron Rodgers had been legitimately offered the opportunity to retire and become Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s running mate were true.

Speaking to reporters at the Jets facility on Tuesday, Rodgers was asked how serious the talks between him and RFK Jr. were regarding him becoming the Independent candidate’s vice presidential selection.

As Rodgers explained, it was quite serious.

“I love Bobby,” Rodgers said. “We had a couple of really nice conversations. But there were really two options — retire and be his VP or keep playing. And I wanna keep playing.”

Rodgers has been a vocal supporter of Kennedy and a fan of his stances on vaccinations. (Read more from “This NFL Player Confirms He Turned down Opportunity to Become RFK Jr.’s VP” HERE)

Police: Homeless Man Dragged Female Jogger by the Hair Toward Public Restroom

A woman was attacked by a homeless man while she was jogging in Santa Monica, and witnesses say he was trying to drag her into the public restrooms by her ponytail.

The Santa Monica Police Department said they responded to reports about the harrowing incident on May 13 at about 7:14 a.m. on Ocean Beach Walk near lifeguard tower 20.

“The victim, a Venice resident, was jogging southbound on the beach path when the suspect grabbed her ponytail from behind, knocking her to the ground,” police said in a statement.

“He then pulled her several feet toward the restrooms.”

Police said they found both the alleged attacker and the woman near the Bicknell restrooms and took him into custody without incident. (Read more from “Police: Homeless Man Dragged Female Jogger by the Hair Toward Public Restroom” HERE)

Woke Sports Writer Demands Harrison Butker Lose His Job to a Woman — But He Accidentally Makes Ironic Admission

The Kansas City Star published an essay demanding that the Kansas City Chiefs drop kicker Harrison Butker and hire a woman as his replacement. . .

As punishment for expressing his personal views, journalist Peter Hamm said Butker deserves “poetic justice” for his “Neanderthal outburst”: losing his job to a woman. . .

Hamm, who has connections to Democrats and liberal advocacy groups, claimed that successful female soccer players and a few examples of women attempting placekicking at the collegiate level are sufficient evidence to prove “the fact that girls can kick.” He even suggested that Maya Turner, a placekicker at the University of Manitoba, could be as good as Butker one day.

Then, in a bout of extreme irony, Hamm revealed his own views on the ability of female placekickers.

“Harrison Butker is not Patrick Mahomes. He’s a special teams player. That gives him less leverage with the team,” Hamm wrote. “They could trade him for a solid kicker, or they could make a statement by signing a woman to kick.” (Read more from “Woke Sports Writer Demands Harrison Butker Lose His Job to a Woman — But He Accidentally Makes Ironic Admission” HERE)

Congress Wants Report on Judge’s Role in Weaponizing Courts Against Trump

It apparently is not just bureaucrats, functionaries and prosecutors involved in the weaponization of the government against President Donald Trump.

That agenda has been obvious in recent months as multiple state and federal cases have been launched against him, sometimes as in the “hush money” case on trial in New York now the allegations are based on facts that multiple prosecutors earlier said did not make a case. . .

Reps. Jim Jordan and Elise Stefanik confirmed Tuesday they are investigating the dismissal of Stefanik’s misconduct complaint against Washington, D.C., federal judge Beryl Howell.

The focus in Howell’s potentially prejudicial statements about Trump’s criminal case involving the 2020 election.

The members of Congress have written Sri Srinivasan, the chief judge of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, requesting a report on how that concern, essentially, was torpedoed. (Read more from “Congress Wants Report on Judge’s Role in Weaponizing Courts Against Trump” HERE)

Poll Reveals Which Vice President Pick Most Helps Trump With Voters

A recent poll found that voters say they would be more likely to support former President Donald Trump if Republican South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott is on the ticket in 2024.

Scott leads the field of possible vice presidential contenders, including former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York and former independent Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, according to a recent Harvard-Harris Poll. Scott drew 25% among voters who said they were more likely to vote for Trump if he was on the ballot, followed by 23% for Ramaswamy and 22% for Rubio.

Stefanik polled the lowest across all voters with only 13% reporting they would likely vote for a Trump-Stefanik ticket, while Gabbard received 19% support. Also mentioned as possible picks to be Trump’s running mate includes Republican Gov. Kristi Noem of South Dakota, who received 16% support of those surveyed, and Republican Gov. Doug Burgum was favored by 15% of those polled.

Trump previously named Scott as a potential vice presidential pick on a Fox News town hall in February. Republican Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio and Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida have also been mentioned as possible selections, but their possible candidacies were not surveyed in this portion of the poll.

‘Gender Neutral Restrooms’ Grace U.S. Military Academies

It was just one more sign that Marxist “woke” ideology has infiltrated the U.S. military and its service academies.

Last month, a sign directing United States Air Force Academy cadets to a “Gender Neutral Restroom” could be found in the hall of one of the nation’s most esteemed military service academies. Prior to this story’s publication on WND, the sign, provided to WND by a cadet, was removed.

Of course, the sign points to a much larger, systemic problem that continues to plague the nation’s military: The Marxist policies of the far Left. WND spoke with Air Force Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Rod Bishop, chairman of Stand Together Against Racism and Radicalism in the Services, Inc., or STARRS – an organization standing against “woke” ideology in the U.S. military and its service academies.

In conversation with some of the U.S. Air Force Academy cadets, Bishop notes that on the one hand, many are “too scared to speak up,” but on the other, some cadets are growing increasingly determined to stop “the push of leftist ideologies.”

So while he praises the courage of cadets willing to confide in him and share their stories, Bishop told WND, “Our military needs a real cultural change.” For him, there is “no question that neo-Marxist ideology has captured the minds” of many of today’s military leaders.

‘Sleeping on a Car Smoking Crack’: Prosecutors Cite Texts Showing Hunter Biden Allegedly Lied on Gun Form

Prosecutors revealed on Monday night evidence they intend to introduce to prove their claim that Hunter Biden lied about his drug usage on a federal gun purchase form in 2018, including 75 pages of text messages highlighting his struggle with addiction.

Ahead of the trial scheduled for June 3 in Wilmington, Delaware, prosecutors told the judge evidence they intend to introduce and witnesses they plan to call, including multiple women with whom he had relationships. Text messages included with the filing show arguments about him getting sober, discussion of drug use and photos of drugs or him smoking crack.

“I was sleeping on a car smoking crack on 4th street and Rodney,” Hunter Biden wrote in one October 14, 2018 message.

The day before, October 13, 2018, he wrote he was “off MD Av behind blue rocks stadium waiting for a dealer.”

Though unnamed in prosecutors’ filing, descriptions make it clear witnesses include Hallie Biden, the widow of his brother Beau Biden, and Kathleen Buhle, his ex-wife.

At Least Three Dead After Attempted Coup, Allegedly Involving Americans, Fails

At least three are reportedly dead after an attempted coup in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), allegedly involving Americans, failed Sunday, according to multiple reports.

The coup reportedly took place early morning Sunday outside the home of economy minister Vital Kamerhe, just north of the country’s capital Kinshasa, and notably near the Palais de la Nation which is home to President Felix Tshisekedi’s offices, according to France 24.

“An attempted coup d’etat has been stopped by the defence and security forces,” General Sylvain Ekenge briefly stated on national television.

Reports from local Congo media first stated that the armed men outside near the president’s home were allegedly connected to former Congolese politician Christian Malanga, who previously lived in the U.S., according to the Associated Press.

During the incident Malanga allegedly live streamed the attack, showing several people dressed in military uniform, stating, “Felix, you’re out. We are coming for you,” according to AP News. As Malanga posted the video to Facebook, he was later confirmed Sunday to have been one of the people caught in the shootout outside of the president’s palace after allegedly resisting arrest by the guards, Ekenge told AP News.

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.
