Iran’s Strikes Did More Than $400 Million In Damage To The U.S. Fifth Fleet’s Headquarters — Damage The Pentagon Hadn’t Acknowledged

According to a bombshell report by the Wall Street Journal, Iranian missiles and drones targeting the nerve center of America’s naval operations in the Middle East did extensive damage.

The U.S. Navy’s sprawling base in Bahrain, and the headquarters of the US Fifth Fleet, is located only 150 miles south of the coast of Iran, and it was targeted numerous times between late February and June.

Strikes that got through caused extensive damage; the Journal’s analysis of satellite imagery and social media footage includes damage the Pentagon hasn’t publicly acknowledged.

The base’s command headquarters and at least a dozen other buildings, along with two satellite communications terminals, were heavily damaged. The Journal estimated that over $400 million in damage was caused to the base in Bahrain.

The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) estimated in a report published earlier this week that the total cost of the war was about $40 billion. That estimate included their calculation of $2.2 billion to $5.1 billion in damage to U.S. bases, based on structures that CSIS identified as damaged.

‘A Direct Assault on Christianity’: Steve Deace Sounds Alarm Over Spielberg’s New UFO Film

Conservative radio host Steve Deace is raising concerns about legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg’s new movie, Disclosure Day, arguing that the highly anticipated film presents a troubling message about faith and Christianity.

Speaking with CBN News, Deace described the movie as more than just a science-fiction story about aliens and government secrets. In his view, the film directly challenges core Christian beliefs and portrays faith as powerless in the face of a greater force.

“This is a direct assault on Christianity,” Deace said while discussing scenes from the movie.

According to Deace, one of the film’s central characters is a former nun who abandoned her faith. He noted that early in the story, she declares that she has “lost” her belief in God’s divinity. As the plot unfolds, the character appears to become overtaken by an alien technology or force that resembles demonic possession.

Deace pointed to a particularly dramatic scene in which the woman clutches a crucifix and prays fervently while struggling against the influence controlling her. He said the crucifix ultimately proves ineffective, with the alien force overpowering her despite her prayers.

John Stockwell, Ex-CIA Officer and Tell-All Author, Found Dead

John Stockwell, the 88-year-old former CIA officer known for writing a tell-all book about the agency, was found dead in Austin following an extensive search, according to the Travis County sheriff’s office.

Stockwell was the subject of a Silver Alert earlier this month after he disappeared from his East Austin neighborhood.

The office issued the alert for Stockwell at about 1:30 a.m. June 13 after he was reported missing. He was last seen walking near the 3000 block of Wickham Lane on June 12, authorities said.

The alert was discontinued June 14 after search crews found him dead in a wooded area near his neighborhood, spokesperson Kristen Dark said.

Dark said the search involved Travis County sheriff’s deputies, sheriff’s office K-9 units, Texas Search and Rescue K-9 teams and boats, Texas game wardens in boats, sheriff’s office drones and aerial assistance from Austin police Air 1 unit and Star Flight.

GRAPHIC: Migrant Drenched In Blood After Bashing Neighbor’s Head In With Hammer

A North African migrant was arrested in Spain after allegedly attacking his Senegalese neighbor in the head with a hammer Thursday.

The man, an Algerian national, allegedly escalated a verbal dispute with two Senegalese men to a full-blown assault at approximately 6 p.m. local time in Torre Pacheco, La Verdad reported in Spanish. The attacker also reportedly attacked another Senegalese man by striking him in the neck with a broken bottle.

Eyewitnesses alerted informed authorities after recording the scene, according to La Gaceta. Videos showed a man drenched in blood as the victim lay motionless on the sidewalk. The suspect was later arrested by the local police and the victim was rushed to a nearby hospital where he remains in critical condition.

The incident comes less than two weeks after Spain received almost 900,000 applications from undocumented migrants looking for a path to legal citizenship.

“Every day the horror in our streets grows more indescribable,” Santiago Abascal, leader of the Spanish nationalist party Vox, said in a recent post on X. “Nothing forces us to keep coexisting with this barbarity, except the betrayal of a heartless political class determined to turn Spain into a country of predators and prey.” (Read more from “GRAPHIC: Migrant Drenched In Blood After Bashing Neighbor’s Head In With Hammer” HERE)

Missing UFO Scientist Tried to Escape Secret Pentagon Program Days Before Vanishing Without a Trace, Bombshell Memo Claims

A missing U.S. Air Force general linked to the military’s alleged research on UFOs was reportedly trying to quit his job at a government research lab before he mysteriously vanished, RadarOnline.com has learned.

Maj. Gen. William Neil McCasland vanished from a hiking trail in Albuquerque on February 27, which experts say could be a “grave national security crisis.”

According to documents first uncovered by historian Sara Bondink, the general’s wife, Susan Wilkerson, told authorities before disappearing, the 68-year-old was suffering from a severe mental decline and was trying to resign from several of the secret projects he was working on.

At the time, McCasland was involved in high-level research for the Department of War, focusing on national security and advanced technology.

Just days before he vanished, according to a police report, McCasland flew by himself to Washington DC to officially resign from the Riverside Research facility, a nonprofit that provides scientific research, engineering, and advisory services on advanced technology projects. . .

Sources told Radar there are fears he may have been silenced to protect secrets the government is keeping – or that he was made to disappear by the very extraterrestrials he has spent a career documenting.

America’s Population of Children is Nose-Diving; Only One Region with Growth

Children’s laughter is becoming less common all across the country — after the number of kids in the US shrank by 1.8 million since 2020.

All except for one region, where school classes are still growing: The South.

The portion of Americans under 18 grew by 1.1% between 2020 and 2025, amounting to 303,969 being born or moving to region during that time.

It’s a relatively small number of children, but significant compared to trends across the country — with the national child population dropping by 2.4% during the same time, US Census Bureau data from Axios found.

The drop was more dramatic in some regions.

Western states lost 1,015,068 kids — a 5.7% decline — while the northeast’s child population declined by 4.1%. (Read more from “America’s Population of Children is Nose-Diving; Only One Region with Growth” HERE)

Pastor Tony Spell Attacked Neighbor who Allegedly Threatened to Rape and Kill Wife

A Louisiana pastor is accused of attacking his neighbor, who hurled expletives and allegedly threatened to rape and kill his wife as the pair brawled across from the church.

Tony Spell, the 48-year-old pastor of the Life Tabernacle Church, was arrested on battery charges for beating his neighbor’s 20-year-old son on Tuesday, according to WBRZ.

Spell was changing the battery of his church’s school buses when he was allegedly abused from across the four-lane road in Baton Rouge, La.

“He said, ‘Tony, I’m going to rape your wife, I’m going to rape all your grandchildren, and the next time you go out of town, I’m going to kill them,’” Spell claimed on Wednesday.

Spell said he had a “duty and obligation” to protect his family.

“Number one, I’m a husband, number two, I’m a father, and number three, I’m a pastor who shepherds his flock,” he said. “I will not allow a man to murder my children when I’m gone.” (Read more from “Pastor Tony Spell Attacked Neighbor who Allegedly Threatened to Rape and Kill Wife” HERE)

Mob Shouting ‘Free Karmelo’ Violently Assaults ‘The Smallest White Girl They Could Find,’ She Claims

A woman claims that a mob of female Karmelo Anthony supporters jumped her in an unprovoked attack at a Texas bar Sunday.

Sammie Lee says she was leaving Whiskey J’s bar in Longview, Texas when she was attacked by a group of girls she had never met before, Fox News reported. Lee alleged that the crowd was angered by the verdict against Karmelo Anthony — the 19-year-old who was sentenced to 35 years in prison after being found guilty of murdering Austin Metcalf in a fatal stabbing at a high school track meet.

“While getting jumped they [were] yelling out ‘Free Karmelo’ — saying they [were] going to target the smallest white girl they could find,” Lee wrote in a Sunday Facebook post in which she included pictures of her face with visible blood and a black eye.

“I never said a word to these girls, never looked at them, and don’t know them at all,” Lee’s post added. “[B]lack eye, and staples in my HEAD! [I] was LEAKING blood on the back of [sic] head & my face. [T]otally caught me off guard. THIS SHIT IS NOT OKAY!!!!!”

One woman, Ciarrianne Fuller, was arrested in connection with the alleged assault, according to CBS19. Fuller is charged with assault causing bodily injury and has been placed in Gregg County Jail on a $20,000 bond as the investigation continues.

Grotesque ‘Zombie Squirrels’ with Oozing Warts Spotted Roaming Through US Backyards

Zombie-esque squirrels covered in oozing, wart-like tumors have been invading backyards across the United States and the reason behind the deformities is likely caused by the species’ version of herpes, according to experts.

The grotesque-looking gray squirrels have been increasingly photographed this summer in US states, including Florida, North Carolina, and Michigan, the Daily Mail reported, citing a flurry of social media posts reporting the bizarre sightings.

“What is going on with the squirrels lately?! This is the third one I’ve seen looking like this, and it’s honestly freaking me out,” one user posted on Facebook on June 9, alongside a photo of a squirrel covered in hairless patches and gnarly warts.

A Tarpon Springs, Florida resident also captured a photo of one of the rodents with “patchy fur and reddish bumps.”

“Found this poor squirrel in my back yard, really scared the crap out of me because I could tell it looked deformed,” an Ohio resident added in a separate post of a skulking squirrel covered in warts.

Wildlife experts said the so-called “zombie squirrels” are actually likely suffering from squirrel fibromatosis — a viral skin disease caused by leporipoxvirus, the outlet reported. (Read more from “Grotesque ‘Zombie Squirrels’ with Oozing Warts Spotted Roaming Through US Backyards” HERE)

Grandma Likely Poisoned and Stabbed Grandkids, Daughter in Horrific Upstate NY Murder-Suicide: Cops

The grandma found dead alongside her daughter and four grandchildren in her upstate New York home appears to have poisoned them all, police said in a shocking update Thursday — as the slain kids’ father spoke of his heartbreak at never seeing them again.

A handwritten note found at Amy Steadman’s home “strongly suggests” that she was “involved” in the deaths of her daughter, Sarah Myers, 44, and Myers’ four children: Harper Harmon, 13, Hudson Harmon, 11, and 10-year-old twins Gavin and Gracelynn, Mechanicville Chief of Police Bill Rabbitt told a press conference.

One of the children was stabbed, while the rest appear to have been poisoned — possibly in a rage over their dad recently getting custody, sources told Channel 13.

“There is recovered evidence from inside the apartment indicating intentional poisoning – to include numerous prescriptions and over-the-counter medications,” Rabbit told reporters, noting no evidence of anyone else being involved.

“Evidence recovered during the investigation, including a handwritten note, and other circumstantial evidence, strongly suggests that Amy Steadman was involved in the deaths,” he said, stressing that the investigation is ongoing.

Sources told Channel 13 that the children were injected with drugs, with syringes found inside their grandma’s home. (Read more from “Grandma Likely Poisoned and Stabbed Grandkids, Daughter in Horrific Upstate NY Murder-Suicide: Cops” HERE)
