Conservative Influencer Attacked by Gay Couple with Baby in West Hollywood after Asking About Parenting Choice

A MAGA influencer was attacked in West Hollywood by a gay couple after questioning them if they were fit to be parents, leading to one of the men being arrested.

Ryley Niemi and “Off The Record USA” were interviewing two men with a baby about adoption rights when one of the gay men attacked him, a video posted on Instagram showed.

“On April 16, 2026, what started as a routine interaction quickly escalated into a violent encounter,” according to a GoFundMe about the incident.

“Ryley was physically assaulted, and the situation became serious enough that over a dozen emergency responders arrived at the scene.” . . .

In the clip, the influencer was attacked by one of the gay parents seconds after he dropped a stat claiming “gay men are statistically much more likely to commit child molestation” and pressed if the two men had paid $50,000 to a woman to be pregnant.

Concerning Rise in Colon Cancer Deaths is Almost Entirely Among Key Demographic

. . .Once considered a disease of older adults, colorectal cancer has now overtaken breast and brain cancers to become the leading cause of cancer deaths among Americans under 50.

But a new study suggests that the burden isn’t spread evenly, finding that deaths among younger adults are overwhelmingly concentrated in one group.

Researchers at the American Cancer Society analyzed government data on more than 101,000 adults ages 25 to 49 who died from colon and rectal cancers between 1994 and 2023. . .

The increase was driven almost entirely by people without a four-year college degree.

In this group, death rates climbed from about 4 to 5.2 per 100,000, while rates for those with at least a bachelor’s degree held steady at around 2.7 per 100,000.

Overall, the gap in death rates between people with a high school education or less and college graduates has nearly doubled since the mid-1990s. (Read more from “Concerning Rise in Colon Cancer Deaths is Almost Entirely Among Key Demographic” HERE)

Islamic Guard Takes Full Control of Iran, Sidelines Moderates: Analysts

Iran’s hardline Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps leader has effectively taken control of Tehran’s military and negotiation team over the weekend, analysts said.

IRGC Commander Maj. Gen. Ahmad Vahidi and members of his inner circle have allegedly taken charge of the Islamic republic, as evident by Iran’s attacks on ships trying to sail through the Strait of Hormuz and Tehran’s refusal to join peace talks with the US this week, the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War (ISW) think tank said.

The sudden shift to a hardline stance also shows that more moderate members of Iran’s leadership, including Iranian Foreign Affairs Minister Abbas Araghchi, have been sidelined.

Araghchi had initially agreed to open the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend after reaching a consensus with the Trump administration, but the IRGC demanded it remain shut in the face of the American blockade on Iranian ports.

Vahidi reportedly received the backing of Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, Iran’s Supreme National Security Council secretary and an IRGC veteran, to control the strait — further cementing Vahidi’s grip on Iran.

Doctors are Noticing a Concerning Trait in Babies just Hours After Birth

New research has found a concerning characteristic in babies that could greatly affect their health down the line.

While some gut microbiome can pass in utero, a newborn’s gut microbiome was previously thought to be nearly sterile, mostly acquiring bacteria during birth or via breastfeeding.

But new findings may prove otherwise, according to research presented at the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Global 2026.

Researchers analyzed stool samples from 105 infants admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit within the first 72 hours of life to capture the earliest stages of microbial and genetic exposure.

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) — segments of DNA that help bacteria survive the effects of antibiotics — were found in newborns, a potential contributor that could allow bacteria to evade antibiotic treatment.

The findings suggest that the newborn’s gut microbiome, which is affected by maternal and environmental factors, may be exposed to bacteria during pregnancy. (Read more from “Doctors are Noticing a Concerning Trait in Babies just Hours After Birth” HERE)

8 Children Killed, 2 Wounded Across Multiple Homes In ‘Domestic Disturbance’

By Daily Caller. Police in Louisiana neutralized a man they say killed eight children in three rounds of shootings near Shreveport early Sunday.

Law enforcement officers responded to reports of gunfire in the Cedar Grove area of Shreveport shortly after 6 a.m. Central Time. Upon arrival, they located victims at three residences, according to remarks from Shreveport Police Corporal Chris Bordelon during a Sunday press conference.

“The responding officers located a crime scene here in the 300 block of West 79th Street, and this is a rather extensive crime scene spanning between two residences here. There is also another residence on Harrison Street that is part of this crime scene as well,” Bordelon told reporters. “Right now we have at least 10 individuals that were struck by gunfire last night in a domestic disturbance; eight of these individuals are deceased.”

“The ranges of the decedents are from one year of age to approximately 14 years of age. All of the deceased in this case are juveniles,” Bordelon continued, before stating the suspect carried out a carjacking, leading to a high-speed pursuit into a neighboring jurisdiction where Shreveport police fatally shot him.

Police later identified the suspect as Shamar Elkins. (Read more from “8 Children Killed, 2 Wounded Across Multiple Homes In ‘Domestic Disturbance’” HERE)

8 kids massacred by deranged Army vet dad Shamar Elkins in Louisiana shooting ID’d

By New York Post. The eight young children gunned down by their deranged Army veteran father and uncle during a harrowing domestic violence massacre in Louisiana early Sunday have been identified.

The children were formally identified by their mothers, according to a news release from the Caddo Parish Coroner’s Office. All eight — five girls and three boys — were killed by 31-year-old Shamar Elkins, when he went on a rampage through Shreveport following an argument with his wife around 6 a.m. Sunday.

Jayla Elkins, 3; Shayla Elkins, 5; Kayla Pugh, 6; Layla Pugh, 7; Markaydon Pugh, 10; Sariahh Snow, 11; Khedarrion Snow, 6; and Braylon Snow, 5 were all found dead inside their home in Shreveport.

Elkins fathered seven of the children and was an uncle to the eighth victim, according to local officials. It’s unclear which of the eight dead was the cousin.

Most of the victims were shot in the head while they slept, Shreveport Police Department spokesman Christopher Bordelon told NBC News. (Read more from “8 kids massacred by deranged Army vet dad Shamar Elkins in Louisiana shooting ID’d” HERE)

Noah’s Ark Mystery Deepens as Researcher Blows Lid on Strange Rock Formations in Turkey

A researcher’s bombshell new findings about a strange rock formation in Turkey could prove that Noah’s Ark was real, according to reports.

Andrew Jones, a researcher with Noah’s Ark Scans, told GB News that “exciting new findings” about the rock formation first discovered in 1959 on Turkey’s Mount Ararat could prove the boat from the Book of Genesis once existed.

Ground penetrating radar scans and soil samples from the tunnel site — which reportedly match the 515-foot dimensions of Noah’s Ark — uncovered a series of “corridors” below the earth, the outlet reported.

Tunnels were discovered running down the middle of the “boat” and alongside the inside edge of the possible ship, leading to a central cavity Jones called the atrium.

“God told Noah to bring the animals in. And so these animals would have stayed there, plus Noah and his family. What’s interesting is that these voids are lining up below the ground – and they’re not just random,” Jones told the outlet.

“These tunnels are also following a pattern. GPR is just a way to look below the soil using radar. There’s also been studies done with IRT, which is another geophysical technique – and they’re showing a ship-shaped hull still preserved deep in the soil,” the researcher said.

Nancy Mace Introduces Resolution to Expel Cory Mills from Congress: ‘Protected for Far too Long’

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) introduced a resolution on Monday to expel Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) from the House of Representatives over allegations of domestic violence, sexual misconduct, stolen valor and profiteering from federal contracts as a member of Congress.

Mills has been under investigation by the House Ethics Committee since November, when an effort by Mace to censure the congressman failed, and the slew of allegations against the Florida Republican were referred to the panel.

“The swamp has protected Cory Mills for far too long and we are done letting it slide,” Mace said in a statement.

“We tried to censure him and strip him from his committee assignments. Both parties blocked it, but we are not backing down,” she continued.

While the House Ethics Committee has yet to release its findings in the Mills probe, Mace argued the evidence against the congressman is “overwhelming.” (Read more from “Nancy Mace Introduces Resolution to Expel Cory Mills from Congress: ‘Protected for Far too Long’” HERE)

Mom, 6 Kids Killed As US Home Explodes

A woman and her six children, who ranged in age from 3 to 11-years-old, were killed in a Sunday morning explosion at a home in Pennsylvania, officials said.

Sarah Stoltzfus, 34, her four sons and two daughters were identified by Pennsylvania State Police (PSP), according to WGAL 8. The family was trapped inside their Clinton County home, and firefighters could not reach them as the building was engulfed in flames, the PSP said. The four boys were 3, 5, 10, and 11-years-old, and the two girls were 6 and 8-years-old, WGAL reported.

Firefighters responded to the home following a report of an explosion and a fire. While the cause of the blaze is under investigation, a propane leak inside the home may be to blame, according to the PSP. Exterior propane tanks did not explode and were not believed to have contributed to the fire, the outlet reported.

Christina Duck, a neighbor of the Stoltzfus family, told WNEP that she was eating breakfast with her daughter around 8:30 Sunday morning when she heard a boom.

“I didn’t know what the boom was at first because it was odd that it shook the house and living next to a stone quarry. I thought they used to blast over there, and that’s what it reminded me of,” she said. (Read more from “Mom, 6 Kids Killed As US Home Explodes” HERE)

Miss Universe Puerto Rico Announces Second Transgender Contestant

Miss Universe Puerto Rico has announced its second biological male contestant since 2023 — revealing on Wednesday that transgender model Gabriel Rodríguez Velázquez is among this year’s competitors vying for the crown.

Gabriel Rodríguez Velázquez — representing the town of Cidra — is the second male to compete for the crown in Miss Universe Puerto Rico, according to a report by Hola!.

Notably, Rodríguez Velázquez’s participation in Miss Universe Puerto Rico makes for the second transgender model to compete for the crown — after Daniela Arroyo González, who became the first trans contestant in 2023.

“Transgender man competing to become Miss Universe Puerto Rico,” one X user wrote, sharing a promotional video. “Gabriel Rodríguez Velázquez, who identifies as a woman, is hoping to win the women’s beauty pageant for 2026 after previously qualifying to compete in 2023.”

“Men replacing women in women only spaces is such a tired and played out scam. At this point is just pathetic,” one X user reacted.
