3 People Dead, Nearly 20 New Mexico First Responders Hospitalized after Exposure to ‘Unknown Substance’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Three people are dead, and nearly 20 first responders in New Mexico were hospitalized for exposure to an “unidentified substance” on Wednesday, according to authorities.

New Mexico State Police arrived at a residence in Mountainair around 11:00 a.m. to assist the Torrance County Sheriff’s Office with a suspected overdose involving an unknown substance.

After entering the home, cops grimly discovered four unidentified people unresponsive. Three of the four people have since died, authorities added.

Eighteen first responders who arrived at the property were exposed to the substance and began experiencing symptoms, including nausea and dizziness, police said.

The remaining occupant and the slew of emergency workers were rushed to the University of New Mexico Hospital, where they are “currently being quarantined, evaluated, and monitored,” the department continued in a statement.

US Indicts Former Cuban President Raúl Castro over 1996 Downing of Planes

/0 Comments/in , /by

Federal prosecutors on Wednesday charged former Cuban President Raúl Castro with ordering the 1996 shootdown of civilian planes operated by Miami-based exiles, a major escalation of pressure by the Trump administration on the socialist government. President Donald Trump has set a calamitous energy blockade on the island and has been threatening military action ever since U.S. forces captured the Cuban government’s longtime patron, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.

Two police officers who helped defend the U.S. Capitol from an attack by a mob of President Donald Trump’s supporters sued Wednesday to block anyone — including Jan. 6, 2021, rioters — from receiving payouts from a new nearly $1.8 billion settlement fund for people who claim to be victims of politically motivated prosecutions. The lawsuit’s filing comes a day after Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, during his congressional testimony, wouldn’t rule out the possibility of fund payouts for rioters who assaulted police on Jan. 6.

Also, Trumpscored another win Tuesday against a Republican rival, dislodging Rep. Thomas Massie in Kentucky’s primary and knocking out one of his most outspoken critics on Capitol Hill. Massie has been a particularly difficult thorn in Trump’s side, pushing for the release of the Epstein files, opposing the war with Iran and voting against Trump’s signature tax legislation last year.

The U.S. government will permanently drop tax claims against Trump, according to a settlement document made public Tuesday, in an extraordinary use of executive power that could effectively help shield the president from further examination of his finances and legal conduct. As part of the settlement deal, the U.S. is “forever barred and precluded” from examining or prosecuting Trump, his sons and the Trump organization’s current tax examinations.

Trump Endorses Ken Paxton over Sen. John Cornyn Ahead of Texas Republican Senate Runoff

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for the Senate, dealing a massive political blow to longtime Sen. John Cornyn as he faces off against Paxton in an Republican primary runoff.

“Ken is a true MAGA Warrior who has ALWAYS delivered for Texas, and will continue to do so in the United States Senate,” Trump wrote in a lengthy post on Truth Social.

Of Cornyn, meanwhile, Trump wrote, “John Cornyn is a good man, and I worked well with him, but he was not supportive of me when times were tough.”

Cornyn and Paxton advanced to a May 26 runoff after neither won a majority of the vote in the March 3 primary, with Cornyn, who is in his the four term, narrowly ahead of Paxton, 42%-41%.

The nominee will take on Democrat James Talarico in the fall. While Trump won Texas by 14 points in 2024, Democrats have long sought to win the state, and they believe they could have a shot this year as Trump’s approval rating has dropped.

TSA Quietly Starts Letting Passengers Bring Their Weed on Planes — with a Big Catch

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .The Transportation Safety Administration updated its policy last month to allow medical marijuana to be taken on commercial flights.

The change is significant because although cannabis for medical use is now legal in 40 US states and the District of Columbia, it remains outlawed at the federal level, which has jurisdictional control over the nation’s airports.

It comes after the Trump administration signed an order reclassifying marijuana as a Schedule III drug, effectively acknowledging that it has known medicinal uses and allowing medical research at a federal level.

Doctor-prescribed weed is now formally allowed on flights, both within customers’ checked and carry-on baggage, according to the TSA website, which says it’s more concerned with thwarting potential safety threats than narcing on passengers’ stashes.

“TSA’s screening procedures are focused on security and are designed to detect potential threats to aviation and passengers,” the policy revised April 27 spells out. (Read more from “TSA Quietly Starts Letting Passengers Bring Their Weed on Planes — with a Big Catch” HERE)

San Diego Mosque Shooter Encouraged Cain Clark to Kill Him after Mass Shooting

/0 Comments/in , /by

San Diego mosque killer Caleb Vasquez urged his accomplice to shoot him in the head in a twisted exchange captured on a livestream broadcast after the pair murdered three people.

Vasquez, 18, is seen in the passenger seat of the white BMW he and 17-year-old Cain Clark used to flee the Islamic Center of San Diego, in footage captured by a camera the pair placed on the car’s dashcam while the vehicle was stopped.

Vasquez grabs the barrel of Clark’s rifle and brings it to his own forehead at multiple points in the livestream clip. The video, circulating on social media, did not have audio.

Finally, the camera turns to include only Clark — sitting in the driver’s seat — who uses his pistol to shoot Vasquez in the head twice and then turn the gun on himself.

The FBI is currently investigating the livestream video, law enforcement sources told The Post.

The livestream also showed the teen terrorists descend on the Islamic Center, opening fire. (Read more from “San Diego Mosque Shooter Encouraged Cain Clark to Kill Him after Mass Shooting” HERE)

Nobody Panic (Yet) — W.H.O Fears Ebola May Be Spreading Faster and Further Than First Thought

/0 Comments/in , /by

As the world watches the Ebola outbreak which has claimed 131 lives in the Democratic Republic of Congo, a World Health Organization (W.H.O). representative warned Tuesday the deadly malady may be disseminating faster than first thought.

W.H.O. representative Dr Anne Ancia told the BBC the more the agency investigates, the clearer it becomes that cases have spread to other areas at a scale and speed not previously predicted..

Officials said more than 513 cases were suspected in DR Congo as of Tuesday, while one person has died in neighbouring Uganda.

The emergence of cases in urban areas, the deaths of healthcare workers, significant population movement in the area and a lack of vaccines and therapeutics are the main cited reasons for growing fears, AP reports.

The warning comes after W.H.O. chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus declared the outbreak a global emergency last week and said he was “deeply concerned about the scale and speed of the epidemic,” as Breitbart News reported.

JPMorgan Exec Sues Ex-Banker for Defamation over ‘Sex Slave’ Allegations

/0 Comments/in , /by

JPMorgan Chase executive Lorna Hajdini is suing disgraced former banker Chirayu Rana for defamation, accusing him of completely fabricating claims that she used and abused him as her “sex slave,” The Post has learned.

Hajdini filed a defamation lawsuit against Rana in the New York State Supreme Court earlier on Tuesday.

The suit alleges that the 35-year-old finance professional, who lied about his dad dying to get time off work, orchestrated a months-long campaign of false accusations that torched her career, damaged her reputation and turned her life into a global tabloid spectacle that first lit up social media last month.

“Ms Hajdini categorically and unequivocally denies each and every allegation of unlawful conduct,” the countersuit reads.

“These allegations are entirely false, malicious, and fabricated, and were concocted for the improper purpose of personal enrichment at the expense of defendants and others,” it said. (Read more from “JPMorgan Exec Sues Ex-Banker for Defamation over ‘Sex Slave’ Allegations” HERE)

Report: Old Posts Show Dem Sen. Candidate Admitting to Masturbating in Porta Potties

/0 Comments/in , /by

Unearthed social media posts reportedly show Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner admitting to masturbating every time he defecates in a porta-potty, as well as praising crude penis drawings he has spotted while inside portable toilets.

“I still have to jerk off every time I sit in a portashitter … that blue water smell conditioned me,” Platner wrote in a March 2017 post on Reddit’s r/Military forum, responding to a discussion about nostalgic military smells, according to a report by Fox News.

In another post from 2021, on Reddit’s r/USMC forum, the Maine Democrat Senate candidate recalled seeing a detailed penis drawing on the inside of a porta-potty while he was deployed overseas.

“It was beautiful,” Platner wrote on a Reddit thread dedicated to “GWOT [Global War on Terrorism] “Dick Art.”

“Engorged and veiny, it rode towards its penetrative glory upon two smoking hot rod wheels, smoke and fire enshrouding its tumescence, winged like Nike as it pushed ever forward toward its conquests,” he continued.

CIA Seized JFK, MKUltra Files Out From Under Tulsi Gabbard: Sources

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Two intelligence community officials confirmed to the Daily Caller that CIA officials took documents from the JFK and MKUltra files that were being reviewed by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard for declassification.

A CIA whistleblower testified to the Senate Homeland Security committee on Wednesday that the agency “took back 40 boxes of JFK and MKUltra files” and “illegally monitored the computer and phone usage” of Gabbard’s investigators looking into an alleged cover-up of the origins of Covid-19. Notably, MKUltra was an illegal CIA experiment program that used drugs and psychological torture to develop mind control and interrogation techniques.

NewsNation’s Katie Pavlich reported that “people from the CIA took documents (related to the JFK assassination/MKUltra) from the National Reconnaissance Office *last year* in the middle of the night during the government shutdown and have not returned/is withholding them from ODNI.”

Prior to James Erdmann III’s testimony, CIA spokesperson Liz Lyons claimed the Committee was acting in “bad faith” by not notifying the CIA that he would be testifying. (

“The witness testifying today is not appearing as a whistleblower in pursuit of the truth, but instead in response to the subpoena issued by Chairman Paul,” Lyons said.

The Orwellian ‘Kill Switch’ Some Republicans Want In Your Car

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Congress quietly passed an Orwellian regulation during former President Joe Biden’s term requiring all new cars to feature a “kill switch,” raising the alarm among some Republicans — but not all of them.

Republicans like Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie, Texas Rep. Chip Roy, and Pennsylvania Rep. Scott Perry have led the charge in the House to scrap the invasive regulation, calling it “impractical” and “Orwellian.” Yet in the most recent January vote to reverse the regulation, 57 Republicans joined nearly every Democrat to mandate that every 2027 model car have a kill switch.

This feature would use technology to assess the driver’s performance and determine whether they are impaired. If the car determines the driver is unfit to be behind the wheel, the kill switch would shut the car off, raising concerns about safety, surveillance, and implementation.

“This is why we lose, the uniparty,” Massie told Tucker Carlson in a recent interview. “I can’t get 218 people to take this provision of law out of law.”

The regulation became law under Biden after Congress passed the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Since then, Massie has led two failed votes to counter the regulation originally intended to curb drunk driving. (Read more from “The Orwellian ‘Kill Switch’ Some Republicans Want In Your Car” HERE)
