Confirmed: The Four Anti-American RINOs Revealed Themselves by Opposing the SAVE America Act

/0 Comments/in , , /by

There is a particular species of Republican senator whose entire political identity depends on the illusion of principled independence. They vote with the party often enough to retain the label, but they reliably surface at precisely those moments when the conservative base has something real on the line. Early Thursday morning, four of them showed their faces again, and nobody should pretend to be surprised.

Sens. Thom Tillis of North Carolina, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine, and Mitch McConnell of Kentucky joined every Senate Democrat to sink Sen. John Kennedy’s effort to attach a version of the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act to the GOP’s immigration enforcement funding package. The amendment failed 48 to 50. The vote confirmed what everyone who has been paying attention already knew. The names were not a mystery. They are the same four senators Majority Leader John Thune has spent months shielding from any vote that might expose them.

The SAVE America Act, in the form Kennedy pushed, would have directed the Senate Rules Committee to draft legislation requiring proof of citizenship to register and vote in federal elections, limiting voting to Election Day, mandating ballots be counted within 36 hours, and capping implementation at $10 billion. In other words, it would have done exactly what every honest poll of the American people shows they want.

Woman Seen Snatching Wine Bottles in Aftermath of White House Correspondents’ Dinner Shooting

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .A woman was caught on camera blissfully snatching bottles of wine during the chaotic aftermath of the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

While throngs of reporters and other guests fled the Washington Hilton ballroom, an unknown blonde woman wearing posh black fur went straight for a table to stockpile booze.

Because the shooting took place early on during the salad portion of the marquee dinner, there was an abundance of wine left abandoned at tables across the ballroom.

The woman’s identity is not immediately clear, and it’s not apparent whether she was a journalist or some other guest.

Footage of the wine grab quickly went viral. But netizens were torn whether snatching the wine was in poor taste given what could’ve been a tragic evening if the shooter wasn’t stopped, or a fiscally prudent move given the high price tag of the swanky dinner.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A White House Correspondents’ Dinner guest who went viral for casually munching on his burrata salad as others ducked for cover at the sound of gunfire explained his calm demeanor Sunday.

“First of all, I have a bad back. I couldn’t get on the floor, and if I did get on the floor, they’d have to bring in people to get me off the floor,” Creative Artists Agency agent Michael Glantz told the New York Times.

“And No. 2, I’m a hygiene freak. There was no freaking way I was getting my new tux on the dirty Hilton floor. It was not happening.”

Glantz was captured on CNN sneaked a fork full of salad despite the chaos and commotion at the DC gala Saturday night.

He quickly went viral for his even-keel approach, which he further elaborated on. (Read more from “Guest Caught Casually Munching on Salad as Others Took Cover During Shooting Explains Himself” HERE)

15 Chemical Spraying Drones Stolen as FBI Investigates Possible ‘Nightmare Scenario’: Report

/22 Comments/in , , /by

Someone stole 15 giant agricultural drones in New Jersey — and experts fear a “nightmare scenario” if they end up in the hands of terrorists.

The fleet of Ceres Air C31 drones, which are about the size of an ATV, were ripped off March 24 by a bogus delivery driver who duped shipping and logistics company CAC International in Harrison, according to The High Side substack.

A phony bill of lading was presented at the pick-up location for the drones which was bolstered by a fake confirmation email that CAC International took to be legitimate, the report stated. . .

The FBI is concerned the chemical-spraying drones could be used to disperse biological or chemical weapons, the report claimed.

“This was one of the most highly sophisticated thefts [the FBI] have seen in a long time, which is the main thing that has them so spooked,” a person who was briefed on the case told the outlet.

A transgender-identifying substitute teacher in Loudoun County, Virginia, was arrested on Thursday for allegedly making threats against a high school.

Loudoun County is a suburb near D.C. that has become infamous for its transgender-related controversies. Hadyn Dollery, a 19-year-old male who reportedly identifies as female is facing charges for making “threats of bodily injury” after law enforcement received tips that he was threatening to commit violence at a high school near Aldie, Fox News reported.

Dollery was apprehended off school property and is being held at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center, according to the report. He is being housed alone, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office told the outlet.

African Elephants Trample Skilled California Hunter to Death

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A wealthy big-game hunter from California was ambushed and trampled to death by five elephants as he hunted small forest antelopes in central Africa earlier this month.

Californian vineyard owner Ernie Dosio, 75, who had trophy rooms in his home filled with his collection of exotic animal heads, was caught off guard with his guide when the herd emerged out of the underbrush where they were concealed and charged the hunting party, according to a report in the Daily Mail.

The fatal encounter took place in the Lope-Okanda rainforest and involved five female elephants with a calf, according to the Mail.

A professional hunter was guiding Dosio in the thick forest of Gabon for a $40,000 fee in search of a shot at the “elusive yellow-backed duiker.”

Over the decades Dosio reportedly has hunted elephants, leopards, rhinos, buffalo, and lions across Africa, and back home in the United States he hunted almost every species of wild deer. (Read more from “African Elephants Trample Skilled California Hunter to Death” HERE)

Iran Fires On 3 Ships In Strait Of Hormuz

/28 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) fired on vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, complicating ongoing negotiations.

The IRGC fired on three vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz, according to information from the British military’s UKMTO. The action took place a day after President Donald Trump announced an indefinite ceasefire in a Truth Social post until the Iranian government would agree to resume in-person negotiations that were originally slated to take place in Pakistan.

The IRGC seized two of the vessels, according to reporting from The Associated Press. Iranian state media claimed the Iranian military was allegedly taking the ships back to Iran.

The ships that were hit were the Panama-flagged MSC Francesca, Liberia-flagged Epaminondas and the Liberia-flagged Euphoria, according to Reuters.

“Based on the fact that the Government of Iran is seriously fractured, not unexpectedly so and, upon the request of Field Marshal Asim Munir, and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, of Pakistan, we have been asked to hold our Attack on the Country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal. I have therefore directed our Military to continue the Blockade and, in all other respects, remain ready and able, and will therefore extend the Ceasefire until such time as their proposal is submitted, and discussions are concluded, one way or the other,” Trump said in the Truth Social post on Tuesday.

Iran’s military more capable than Trump administration is publicly acknowledging, sources say

By CBS News. The Islamic Republic of Iran maintains more military capabilities than the White House or Pentagon has publicly admitted, according to multiple U.S. officials with knowledge of intelligence on the matter.

About half of Iran’s stockpile of ballistic missiles and its associated launch systems were still intact as of the start of the ceasefire in early April, three of the officials told CBS News.

Roughly 60% of the naval arm of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is still in existence, the officials said, including fast-attack speed boats. On Wednesday, Iranian gunboats attacked several commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz, shortly after President Trump announced he was unilaterally extending a ceasefire to allow more time for peace talks.

Iranian air power has been significantly degraded but not erased, said the officials, who requested anonymity from CBS News because they were not authorized to discuss the matters publicly.

About two-thirds of Iran’s air force is still believed to be operational, the officials said, after an intensive U.S. and Israeli campaign that struck thousands of targets, including storage and production facilities.

Navy Secretary Fired after Feud over Trump’s ‘Golden Fleet’ with Pentagon Leaders, Including Hegseth

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Secretary of the Navy John Phelan was fired Wednesday after months of feuding with his Pentagon bosses, particularly over his handling of President Trump’s “Golden Fleet” shipbuilding initiative.

Tensions between Phelan, War Secretary Pete Hegseth and Deputy War Secretary Stephen Feinberg had been simmering for months, according to the New York Times and a Republican source.

Phelan didn’t get along with Pentagon brass and his management and leadership style was “incongruent” with Hegseth and Feinberg, one GOP source familiar with the fired Navy secretary’s standing at the Pentagon told The Post.

“The administration really wanted to accelerate the shipbuilding program because of the president’s agenda … and the secretary seemed incapable of accomplishing those goals and he wasn’t well liked,” the source said. “When you combine incompetence with arrogance it usually doesn’t end well.”

Feinberg had been gradually diverting responsibility for the major project away from Phelan, the New York Times reported. (Read more from “Navy Secretary Fired after Feud over Trump’s ‘Golden Fleet’ with Pentagon Leaders, Including Hegseth” HERE)

Evidence Uncovered in New Mexico may Help Solve at Least One Disappearance Linked to Missing Scientists

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Employees at top secret government labs have suddenly disappeared without a trace across the US, leaving many questioning how and why it has happened.

The circumstances in certain cases have been eerily similar, with three people who all worked in New Mexico suddenly leaving their houses on foot without taking wallets, IDs or essentials with them. A fourth person, an aerospace engineer in California, disappeared on a hiking trail, feet away from her friends.

One common thread links their work — a retired US Air Force Major General who also left his home on foot on the morning of Feb. 27 with little more than a handgun, and has not been seen again.

Unfounded theories have linked up to 11 disappearances of those working on sensitive government projects together. However, The Post has found that while there are truly eerie and bizarre circumstances in each, the cases are not alike.

New Book on Archaeological Evidence for Jesus Rockets to Top of Bestseller List

/110 Comments/in , , /by

A new book on the historical evidence for Jesus has skyrocketed to the top of the bestseller charts as a prominent New Testament scholar argues that overwhelming archaeological finds verify the authenticity of the Bible and the resurrection.

In “The Jesus Discoveries: 10 Historic Finds That Bring Us Face-to-Face with Jesus,” author Dr. Jeremiah Johnston points to 10 major archaeological finds, including the controversial Shroud of Turin and the Dead Sea Scrolls, as historical artifacts that corroborate the biblical accounts.

The book reached No. 2 on Amazon Charts’ bestseller list in nonfiction last week, and reached No. 3 on the New York Times Bestsellers List this week. Johnston has shared his research on several popular podcasts recently, including the “Shawn Ryan Show,” reaching over 1 million views.

Johnston said he has spent the past four years traveling the world to consult with scientists and archaeologists who have studied these artifacts. He argues the findings provide compelling evidence for the New Testament, regardless of a person’s religious background.

“It turns out that we can learn 65 facts about the birth, the life, the ministry, the miracles and, of course, the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus… before we ever open the Bible. And no other religious figure on planet Earth has ever been this well evidenced,” he told Fox News Digital.
