/1 Comment/in , , /by

A neighborhood in North Carolina is terrified after police said that a family of five was tortured by home invaders for over an hour.

The Harnett County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release that the five people were sitting in their garage in Spout Springs with the garage door up when they were confronted by a group of men at about 2 a.m. on June 15.

The five victims included a father, a mother, their daughter, and the daughter’s friend. The fifth victim was not identified. . .

Police said the group, which could have numbered up to six men, tied up the victims with duct tape and began torturing them with heated metal.

“They put a knife and fork on top of the stove and heated it up and they just started sticking it to the body,” said Harnett County Sheriff Wayne Coats. “They were trying to get them to tell them where their money and guns were.”

The father, mother, and daughter were treated for their non-life threatening injuries at UNC-Chapel Hill. (Read more from “Family of Five Tortured During Home Invasion, Including Children, Police Say” HERE)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Actor Kirk Cameron announced Wednesday that he has moved from California to Tennessee, joining a growing list of celebrities who have left the Golden State, the Washington Examiner reported.

The former “Growing Pains” and “Left Behind” star said that he had been “seriously” thinking about leaving California over the past few years, especially after the state issued strict regulations related to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the Washington Examiner.

Cameron, who said he asked fans in 2021 to suggest states they would prefer living in, told the publication that California was causing “so much division” and that he wanted to live in a community that had a “healthy freedom-mindset.”

“It’s pretty clear that California has been moving in a particular direction for a long time,” the actor said.

The list of celebrities who have recently fled California include Mark Wahlberg, Sylvester Stallone and YouTube podcaster Dave Rubin, who announced on X in 2021 that he was “officially leaving the dystopian nightmare of California for the free state of Florida.” (Read more from “‘We Didn’t Feel Safe Anymore’: Famous Actor Joins Long List of Celebrities Fleeing California” HERE)

Iconic Actor Breaks Silence on Fourth of July Parade Brawl After He’s Hit With Water Balloons: ‘That’s When I Panicked’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Danny Trejo claimed he was targeted when he was struck with a water balloon during a Fourth of July parade in Los Angeles, which led to a chaotic brawl involving the iconic actor.

The “Machete” star was riding in the passenger seat in a baby blue convertible alongside his buddy Mario Castillo, driving through the Sunland-Tujunga neighborhood when a water balloon was thrown at them, the actor told TMZ.

Trejo said he panicked when he seemingly heard somebody yell that the balloon contained “acid.”

“I’m so sad, by the way I behaved, so sad that grown men have to throw water balloons to enjoy a day,” Trejo told the outlet. “I don’t think I would’ve gotten out of the car if someone hadn’t yelled ‘it’s acid.’ That’s when I panicked,” he added.

Trejo hopped out of the car to confront a group of people on the sidewalk and began fighting with one man who wore a black sleeveless shirt. (Read more from “Iconic Actor Breaks Silence on Fourth of July Parade Brawl After He’s Hit With Water Balloons: ‘That’s When I Panicked’” HERE)

Ivanka Trump Makes RNC Decision as She Calls Donald’s Conviction ‘Painful’

/6 Comments/in , , /by

Ivanka Trump will be in attendance to support her father when he officially accepts the Republican nomination for president, The Post is told — as she admitted his recent conviction was “painful.”

Despite having left politics, Donald Trump’s daughter — who said in a new interview with podcaster Lex Fridman that politics is a “rough, rough business” and a “pretty dark world” — will watch his speech at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, later this month, her spokesperson confirmed.

The RNC will run from July 15-18 at the Fiserv Forum, and Trump sources stressed that Ivanka will not serve in any political capacity at the event, as a delegate, fundraiser or otherwise.

This is in stark contrast to the 2020 RNC where she introduced her father to the stage. She was also a big part of the 2016 convention.

The mom-of-three spoke out about the former president having been found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records tied to a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign.

Confirmed: FBI Security Clearances Suspended for Agents’ Wrong Beliefs

/3 Comments/in , , /by

A new whistleblower, this one a Democrat, has pulled back the curtain on the extent of corruption within the FBI, confirming that agents’ security clearances were suspended for having the wrong beliefs.

Those would include the wrong political beliefs, the wrong medical beliefs or even the ethnicity views of the agent, according to reports.

A report from the Daily Signal explained Tristan Leavitt, chief of Empower Oversight, told Congress on behalf of the whistleblower, “The client—a registered Democrat—witnessed firsthand as an SSA [supervisory special agent] how the FBI’s Security Division improperly suspended or revoked employees’ security clearances whose political views, medical views, or even ethnicity were questioned by Security Division leadership.” . . .

Specifically, the Democrat charges the FBI chiefs with targeting employees who supported President Donald Trump or opposed those COVID-19 shots that now have proven to have injured thousands of people.

“If an FBI employee fit a certain profile as a political conservative, they were viewed as security concerns and unworthy to work at the FBI,” the whistleblower’s lawyer, Leavitt, wrote Horowitz in requesting an independent investigation.

First Sitting Democrat Calls for Biden to Withdraw

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By Breitbart. The first domino fell Tuesday. Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) called for President Joe Biden to step down from his campaign for reelection to the White House.

Doggett’s announcement followed a horrendous debate performance from Biden universally panned by media and voters.

Few Democrat elected officials have rushed to Biden’s defense, but Doggett is the first to officially announce Biden should step aside.

“For more than a year, many Americans have indicated dissatisfaction with their choices in this election,” Doggett said in a press release. “President Biden has continued to run substantially behind Democratic senators in key states and in most polls has trailed Donald Trump.”

He continued, “I had hoped that the debate would provide some momentum to change that. It did not. Instead of reassuring voters, the President failed to effectively defend his many accomplishments and expose Trump’s many lies.” (Read more from “Rep. Lloyd Doggett Becomes First Sitting Democrat to Call for Biden to Withdraw” HERE)

Democrats Begin Attacking Biden’s Performance and Campaign

By Politico. Top Democrats have begun forcefully and aggressively criticizing President Joe Biden’s debate performance and pushing back against what they call an unconvincing response from his campaign to worries that he’s no longer up for the job — delivering a dire warning to the party.

Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-Tex.), called on Biden to drop out of the race. Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.), a key ally of the president, told MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell that he will back Vice President Kamala Harris if Biden steps aside. Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi said it’s completely legitimate to question whether Biden’s debate performance was “an episode or is this a condition?”

Democratic governors are also planning to meet with Biden, possibly as soon as Wednesday, after more than two dozen gathered on a call this week to vent about the president.

“Folks want to know — what’s the plan, Joe? What is the plan not only for you, but the rest of us to get out there and carry the flag? Are you able and is the campaign able to maintain the pace?” said one Democratic adviser to a governor who was on the call. The Democrat was granted anonymity to discuss the private matter.

Tucker Carlson Reacts to Trump vs. Biden Debate, Exposes Media Cover-Up of Biden’s Dementia

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Renowned conservative commentator Tucker Carlson didn’t hold back in his scathing critique of the mainstream media and President Joe Biden during a packed event at Sydney’s International Convention Centre. Speaking to a crowd of 4,000 enthusiastic fans, Carlson boldly claimed that the media has been concealing the truth about President Biden’s cognitive decline.

Carlson accused the mainstream media, particularly CNN, of knowingly hiding Biden’s dementia from the public. “Democratic operatives posing as journalists” were his choice words for the reporters who, according to him, have been complicit in this cover-up. He lambasted their feigned shock at Biden’s recent debate performance, which many critics have called a clear display of his cognitive struggles.

“But for the media today to be like, wow, we just got the diagnosis, this is shocking, he can’t run for president,” Carlson said on Friday, highlighting the disingenuous nature of their surprise. He asserted that either the media is “really stupid … or they’re liars, they’re truly dishonest, they’re hiding the obvious from you.”

Carlson’s comments resonate with a growing sentiment among conservatives and independent observers who have long questioned Biden’s fitness for office. His debate performance has intensified these concerns, leading many to believe that the media has been deliberately shielding the public from the truth.

Family Sues Hospital for Refusing to Kill Girl

/1 Comment/in , , /by

The family of a woman who was denied assisted death at a Catholic hospital in Canada is now suing the hospital for refusing to kill their daughter.

According to CTV News, 34-year-old Sam O’Neill sought Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) in 2023 after a cervical cancer diagnosis left her in excruciating pain. O’Neill received palliative care at St. Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver, but was told that the hospital would not offer MAiD because it was a Catholic-run facility; the Catholic Church opposes euthanasia and assisted suicide. O’Neill was later transferred to a Vancouver hospice facility, where she received a MAiD death, though at that point she was sedated and did not wake to say goodbye to her family.

The lawsuit claims that because the Catholic hospital abided by its beliefs in the dignity of human life, it denied O’Neill a “dignified death.”

“Although Ms. O’Neill was ultimately provided with access to MAID, the circumstances surrounding the forced transfer and Ms. O’Neill’s access to MAID caused and exacerbated Ms. O’Neill’s egregious physical and psychological suffering, and denied her a dignified death, including the ability to say goodbye to her family and loved ones,” the lawsuit reads.

O’Neill’s parents, Jim and Gaye O’Neill, say the lawsuit is meant to challenge religious exemption laws and to stop the forced transfer of patients from facilities that refuse to commit euthanasia. (Read more from “Family Sues Hospital for Refusing to Kill Girl” HERE)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Wild footage posted online following New York City’s Pride parade Sunday afternoon shows chaos unfolding at a park, as one woman was seen being dragged and beaten by others.

Footage taken by Oliya Scootercaster was posted to X (formerly known as Twitter) showing the chaotic moments of multiple brawls after New York’s annual Pride parade. A massive group of people could be seen at Washington Square Park with two women being punched by the fountain.

The clip opens up as one woman in all black could be seen being punched by another, as well as a second woman in pink being punched and dragged by her hair by another group of women. People in the crowd could be heard screaming as the attack unfolded, with others pulling out their phones to record the incident.

“Back up, back up!” someone could be heard yelling as the woman in pink got up from the ground.

Moments later a second clip shows someone dancing on top of one of the park’s lampposts while surrounded by viewers who recorded and appeared to encourage the activity. While it is unclear what started the fight between the women, Scootercaster later posted that arrests were allegedly being made by authorities.

Steve Bannon Begins Prison Term, Here’s What His Life Will Look Like

/1 Comment/in , , /by

. . .Steve Bannon will join hundreds of political prisoners who have been wrongfully incarcerated during the Biden administration when he turns himself into the Federal Correctional Institution Danbury, a low-security federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut.

Some suspect the former White House chief strategist will be housed in protective custody of the Sentencing Handling Unit, or SHU, of the Danbury prison as have been other high-profile celebrity inmates.

But FCI Danbury, which houses over 1,000 inmates, most of whom are sex offenders, doesn’t have individual cells. Instead, inmates are housed in open pods.

A Jan. 6 political prisoner, who has been transferred to 26 correctional facilities while in pretrial detention, described what life will look like for Bannon behind the gates of the Connecticut prison.

“If Bannon were to be sent to a U.S. penitentiary, he would be killed, but the low security prison in Danbury is where most prisoners would prefer to do their time,” political prisoner Ryan Samsel told WorldNetDaily in an exclusive interview on a surveilled call from MDC Brooklyn, a prison where inmates are regularly stabbed to death.
