First Amendment Concerns Raised After Police Seize Materials From Small-Town Kansas Newspaper Office and Staff Homes During Raid

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A small-town newspaper in Kansas is raising First Amendment questions on a national level after local police raided its office and homes of staffers on Friday, seizing material linked to alleged identity theft violations.

Marion County Record, a family-owned weekly newspaper published in the midwestern state about 60 miles north of Wichita, was named in a search warrant signed by Marion County Court Magistrate Judge Laura Viar on Friday morning, which alleges violations of identity theft and “unlawful acts concerning computers.” CNN reported.

Eric Meyer, co-owner and publisher of the paper founded more than 150 years ago in the small city of Marion, reportedly said four Marion police officers and three sheriff’s deputies seized personal cell phones, computers, and other materials at his home and Marion County Record office, including some unrelated equipment needed to publish.

“Our first priority is to be able to publish next week,” Meyer said. “But we also want to make sure no other news organization is ever exposed to the Gestapo tactics we witnessed today.”

Reporter Deb Gruver wrote in a post on Facebook she had filed a report with the Kansas Bureau of Investigation that accused Marion, Kansas Police Chief Gideon Cody of re-injuring a previously dislocated finger after he allegedly “forcibly yanked” her cell phone from her hand.

Dem Senator Blames Climate Change for Historic Maui Wildfires. But Here’s What the National Weather Service Said.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) suggested Sunday that climate change played a role in the massive Maui wildfires that killed almost 100 people and left more than 1,000 others missing.

But meteorologists and other scientific experts say not so fast.

On CNN’s “State of the Union,” host Jake Tapper teed up Hirono to blame climate change for the tragic event — and she took the bait. . .

Last Sunday, the National Weather Service warned that a high-pressure system north of the Hawaiian islands, combined with a strong low-pressure cyclone in category 4 Hurricane Dora passing to the south of the islands, would create a “strong pressure gradient” over Hawaii.

Translation: it’s going to be warm and dry, and there will be a strong chance of damaging winds. That means the potential for wildfires will be higher than normal.

‘Lied to From the Beginning’: RFK Jr Discusses JFK Assassination, Ukraine War With Tucker Carlson (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. explained his political views and theorized who allegedly killed his uncle, former President John F. Kennedy, during an interview with Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson.

Kennedy discussed the alleged lies about the Ukraine war and the Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) alleged involvement in his uncle’s death during an interview released Tuesday. He also said the media is lying to Americans about the background of the Ukraine war while ignoring the complexities between Ukraine and Russia.

“When it come to the Ukraine War, I mean we’re being lied to about it,” Kennedy said.

“In what way?” Carlson asked.

“Well, I mean we were lied to from the beginning. You know, we had this comic book depiction, which we see in on war, there’s a bad guy who’s like, you know, unspeakably evil, who’s planning world conquest or a terrorist attack on America and we have to be the good guys going in and stopping. And Ukraine, the background of the Ukraine War is much more complex than that. You know, the U.S. has been involved in, particularly the neocons in the White House … since 2001, have been talking about putting NATO in Ukraine.” (Read more from “‘Lied to From the Beginning’: RFK Jr Discusses JFK Assassination, Ukraine War With Tucker Carlson” HERE)

Photos: Montana Woman Survives ‘Vicious and Relentless’ Otter Attack

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A woman was severely injured when a not-so-cute otter attacked her as she tubed on a river recently near Bozeman, Montana.

As Jen Royce and two of her friends floated down the Jefferson River, the otter caught them off guard and its behavior was terrifying, the New York Post reported Sunday.

Royce noticed one of the animals behind her friend just before it jumped the individual. However, she noted, “I didn’t even have a chance to get the words ‘there is an otter behind you’ out of me before it attacked her.”

In a social media post describing the harrowing experience, Royce said, “Being in the middle of the river meant I couldn’t reach the bottom with my feet, so I was trying to tread water while fending for my body.” (Read more from “Photos: Montana Woman Survives ‘Vicious and Relentless’ Otter Attack” HERE)

The Ukrainian Prosecutor Joe Biden Had Fired Is Speaking Out (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Former Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin is speaking out and revealing his side of the story after then Vice President Joe Biden demanded he be fired back in 2016.

At the time of his firing, Shokin was investigating corruption at Ukrainian gas company Burisma — the same company that was paying Hunter Biden $80,000 per month to sit on the board.

During closed door testimony in front of the House Oversight Committee earlier this week, Hunter Biden’s former business partner — Devon Archer — said he believed Burisma would have gone under if not for the Biden “brand” — including Joe Biden — being attached to the company.

“My only thought is that I think Burisma would have gone out of business if it didn’t have the brand attached to it,” Archer said. (Read more from “The Ukrainian Prosecutor Joe Biden Had Fired Is Speaking Out (VIDEO)” HERE)

Mom of Two Dies From Drinking Too Much Water After Feeling Dehydrated on Family Trip

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An Indiana mother of two who told her family it felt like she couldn’t drink enough water to feel satiated collapsed and died from water toxicity — a rare consequence of drinking too much water too quickly.

Ashley Summers, 35, was out at Lake Freeman with her husband and two young daughters over the Fourth of July weekend when she began feeling severely dehydrated.

“Someone said she drank four bottles of water in 20 minutes,” her brother Devon Miller told WRTV. “I mean, an average water bottle is like 16 ounces, so that was 64 ounces that she drank in a span of 20 minutes. That’s half a gallon. That’s what you’re supposed to drink in a whole day.” . . .

“My sister, Holly, called me, and she was just an absolute wreck. She was like ‘Ashley is in the hospital. She has brain swelling, they don’t know what’s causing it, they don’t know what they can do to get it to go down, and it’s not looking good,’” said Miller.

She never regained consciousness, and doctors told her family she had died from water toxicity. (Read more from “Mom of Two Dies From Drinking Too Much Water After Feeling Dehydrated on Family Trip” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

By Breitbart. Then-Vice President Joe Biden wrote an endearing thank you letter in 2011 to Hunter Biden’s best friend in business, Devon Archer, Tucker Carlson revealed during an interview released Wednesday on Twitter.

“It’s from January 20th, 2011, which, I think, puts you in your late thirties,” Carlson described the letter. “This is from the vice president of the United States, Joe Biden, to you, personally.”

Carlson held up the letter during the interview, displaying a personalized handwritten note from Joe Biden at the bottom.

Carlson read the letter to Archer in which Joe Biden thanked him for attending a lunch:

I apologize for not getting a chance to talk to you at the luncheon yesterday. I was having trouble getting away from hosting President Hu (Jintao, who’s running China at that point). I hope I get a chance to see you again soon with Hunter. I hope you enjoyed lunch. Thanks for coming. Sincerely, Joseph R. Biden, Jr. P.S. (handwritten) Happy you guys are together.

Devon Archer: ‘Impactful’ Joe Biden Calling Into Meetings With Hunter’s Foreign Business Associates Was ‘Abuse of Soft Power’

By New York Post. First son Hunter Biden’s former business partner Devon Archer says President Biden calling into business meetings with his son’s foreign associates was both “prize enough” by demonstrating the first son’s pull with his dad and “an abuse of soft power.” . . .

“I don’t know if it was an orchestrated call-in or not. It certainly was powerful, though, because you’re sitting with a foreign businessperson and you hear the vice president’s voice, that’s prize enough,” Archer said. “I mean, that’s pretty impactful stuff for anyone in the world.”

“You understand DC, right?” the former Burisma Holdings board member told Carlson. “So the power to have that access and that conversation, and it’s not in a scheduled conference call and it’s a part of your family — that’s like the pinnacle of power in DC.”

“In the rear view, it’s an abuse of soft power, I’d say,” Archer added.

Archer and Hunter Biden courted prominent businesspeople in countries where Joe Biden held sway while Barack Obama’s No. 2, including China, Russia and Ukraine.

DeSantis Plan to Get Rid of Student Loans Compared to Biden Cancellation

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, a 2024 Republican presidential candidate, said Tuesday he has a better idea than President Joe Biden’s plan to alleviate student debt.

“We’ve had a generation of kids go to college and end up deep into debt with little to show for it,” DeSantis said in a tweet. “The left’s solution is to force taxpayers to pay off this debt. Here’s a better solution: Make the colleges and universities foot the bill. And let student loans be dischargeable in bankruptcy.”

DeSantis’ solution is part of the plan he calls the Declaration of Economic Independence that includes 10 pillars that seek to strengthen the economy and help those in the middle class.

Earlier this year, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down Biden’s plan to cancel student loan debt for thousands of borrowers. The plan’s goal was to cancel up to $10,000 in debt for students with an income of $125,000 or less and up to $20,000 for recipients of Pell Grants.

New Cancer Hope as a Pill ‘Annihilates All Solid Tumors’ — Thanks to This Little Girl

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Cancer has a powerful new enemy — and it is fueled by a 9-year-old girl with an unforgettable smile.

Researchers have developed a drug containing a molecule called AOH1996 that “appears to annihilate all solid tumors” in preclinical research — while leaving healthy cells unharmed.

The drug AOH1996 is named after Anna Olivia Healey, a cancer patient from Indiana who was born in 1996.

“I knew I wanted to do something special for that little girl,” Linda Malkas of City of Hope in Duarte, California, a leading cancer research center, said in a statement received by The Post.

“She died when she was only 9 years old from neuroblastoma, a children’s cancer that affects only 600 kids in America each year.” (Read more from “New Cancer Hope as a Pill ‘Annihilates All Solid Tumors’ — Thanks to This Little Girl” HERE)
