Traumatized Witnesses Reveal Christa Pike’s Hair-Raising Question After Botched Execution

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Media witnesses to the botched execution of Christa Pike described how the satanist killer lifted her head and asked if the pain was normal after a second round of the lethal drug cocktail was administered.

Pike, who would have been the first woman executed in Tennessee in more than 200 years, somehow survived the double dose of the highly potent sedative, Pentobarbital, Wednesday – with reporters describing how the failed execution played out unlike anything they had ever seen.

“They went through two rounds, and she was still breathing at the end, it was very ragged, she lifted her head up and was looking around at one point. She said there was a spot that was burning and hurting and asked if that was normal,” Catherine Sweeney of WPLN said at a press briefing after the execution was put on hold.

“None of that was normal.”

Pike, 50, was strapped to a gurney in the Riverbend Maximum Security Institution’s death chamber just before 7:30 p.m. CDT an hour after her stay of execution was overturned by the Supreme Court.

“When they told us to leave at 8:53 Christa Pike was still breathing. They did two separate rounds of pentobarbital – which I’ve never seen before – the protocol does say that they should do a second round if the person is still alive,” Sweeney recounted.

‘Extremely Rageful’ Trans NYT Exec ‘Rained Hell’ on Family for Years, In-Laws’ Lawyer Claims after Slaying

/8 Comments/in , , /by

The attorney for the alleged killer in-laws painted a drastically different picture Thursday of the transgender New York Times executive gunned down in a Northern California parking lot.

Curtis Briggs stood in front of the court where Jonathan McKinsey’s mother-in-law Shili Chen and father-in-law Shouyong Zhang were attending proceedings Thursday — and told reporters the victim had “rained hell on his family for years.”

“He was extremely rageful, could not control his temper, abused his wife so badly at one point he fractured her spine, abused the kids so badly that a court in Alameda County had to send him to parenting classes,” Briggs said. “McKinsey was extremely violent and dangerous to his family,” he added.

McKinsey faced allegations of spousal abuse and domestic violence from wife Candice Jang, well before he died Sept. 26, after Zhang and Chen allegedly shot him to death.

The New York Times employee was charged last year on two counts of misdemeanor child abuse for the incident, but was ultimately released from jail on the condition that he take parenting classes. Jang called the police after McKinsey allegedly hit their young son.

Jaw-Dropping Way Trump Allegedly Got Talked Into a War Is Leaked

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Donald Trump spent hours asking Elon Musk’s AI chatbot about whether Venezuelans would celebrate if he captured leader Nicolas Maduro—then ordered the operation that seized the South American dictator weeks later.

The extraordinary account from a Trump insider was revealed in a new Time report offering a jaw-dropping glimpse of the president’s obsession with artificial intelligence, which he “officially” rebranded this week as “super intelligence.”

According to the report, Trump has “marveled at AI’s capabilities” ever since he returned to power, and during an Oval Office meeting with Elon Musk in December, he spent hours asking his Grok chatbot questions about his presidency and legacy.

At the time, the U.S. military had been conducting highly contentious lethal strikes against Venezuelan boats that Trump had claimed, without presenting any evidence, were smuggling drugs into America.

When the president asked Grok how Venezuelans might react to Maduro’s capture, the chatbot predicted many would welcome the downfall of the “repressive” leader, the official said. (Read more from “Jaw-Dropping Way Trump Allegedly Got Talked Into a War Is Leaked” HERE)

Mystery Erupts as US Spy Satellite Explodes… and Space Force won’t Rule out an Attack

/11 Comments/in , , /by

An American spy satellite that was recently declassified to the public has mysteriously exploded, sparking concern that more satellites that provide phone and internet service may soon suffer the same fate.

The device, called USA 32, broke apart while in low Earth orbit on September 13, creating a large debris cloud just over 480 miles above the planet, the US Space Force said.

The military added that ‘further analysis is ongoing’ and did not release any other details or rule out the possibility of an anti-satellite weapon.

USA 32 had been in space since 1988 and was also known by its classified code name ‘Farrah III’ during the Cold War with the Soviet Union.

The National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), which builds and operates America’s spy satellites to collect intelligence from space, had just revealed the full details of its mission last year – which was to listen for Soviet radar and other electronic signals and relay that data to the US military.

Once America’s Hottest Housing Market, Popular State is Now the Hardest Place to Sell a Home

/0 Comments/in , , /by

If you’re planning to cash out in Florida, you might want to pack your patience.

The Sunshine State is the single worst place in the country to sell a home right now, according to a fresh ranking from Underwood Law Firm that pits 48 states against each other on how brutal their markets are for sellers.

Florida sits at the bottom of the barrel with a staggering 206,508 homes up for grabs, the biggest glut of any state studied.

The typical property there lingers for 73 days before a buyer bites, and bidding wars have all but vanished. Only 10.9% of homes fetched more than their asking price.

This essentially means buyers in Florida are calling the shots.

The firm crunched Redfin Data Center figures across seven yardsticks. (Read more from “Once America’s Hottest Housing Market, Popular State is Now the Hardest Place to Sell a Home” HERE)

The Murder Of A Trans New York Times Executive Has Taken A Strange Turn

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The director of engineering at New York Times Games, Jonathan McKinsey, was allegedly shot and killed by her in-laws Sept. 26 amid a custody battle.

McKinsey, formerly known as Dawn S. Finney, was transgender and began going by Johnathan in 2010 after undergoing gender transition surgeries.

A sergeant with the Dublin Police Services (DPS) discovered Finney, 40, lying on the ground with multiple gunshot wounds at the Dublin Sports Grounds around 3:08 p.m. Sept. 26, according to a DPS press release. . .

Finney was married to the couple’s daughter, Candice Jang, for over a decade, according to The Mercury News. Court records referenced by the outlet indicate Finney was involved in a custody dispute with Jang, with both parties accusing the other of abuse.

The same records allege that Finney hit one of her sons during an argument and left a “very large bruise the shape of a handprint” on the child’s face. Jang also accused Finney of grabbing her so hard she left bruises on her wrist in 2018. In another instance, Finney allegedly left her two-year-old son home alone while she went shopping. Police investigated the incidents, and Finney was charged with cruelty to a child by endangering health and corporal injury to a child but was freed on $50,000 bail, The Mercury News reported.

Iran Turns Tables on Trump Admin after Dramatic Warning amid Escalating War

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf rejected claims by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent that Iran faces an imminent economic collapse, arguing instead that Washington is heading toward a debt crisis of its own.

Responding on X to Bessent’s assertion earlier Wednesday that Tehran could have “nothing left to trade” within two weeks, Ghalibaf used memes to point to what he saw as U.S. economic vulnerabilities.

Among them was a mock financial model titled “Trajectory of Stress on the House,” which contended that ballooning national debt, rising Treasury bond yields and energy costs will place mounting strain on the American financial system.

Ghalibaf also paired the mock formula with a cartoon depicting Bessent as Wile E. Coyote running off a cliff.

Kristi Noem’s ‘Saddened’ Cross-Dressing Husband Makes Veiled Threat After Wife Files for Divorce

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Kristi Noem’s cross-dressing husband, Byron, expressed a cryptic desire to “truthfully share his perspective” amid his divorce from the ousted former Department of Homeland Security secretary – months after his bizarre “bimbofication” fetish was exposed.

“Bryon is saddened that the marriage is ending and hopes for a private and amicable resolution,” Bryon’s lawyer, Tim Bottum, said in a statement. “If court proceedings become necessary, Bryon will welcome the opportunity to truthfully share his perspective.”

Bottum added: “Bryon’s priority is to protect the family and move forward as loving parents and grandparents.”

The former South Dakota governor and Homeland Security secretary filed for divorce on Monday in Hamlin County Court in her home state.

The couple have been married since 1992 and have three children: daughters Kassidy, 31, Kennedy, 29, and son Booker, 23. Kassidy and Kennedy both have children of their own.

The divorce comes six months after the Daily Mail published a story revealing Bryon’s alleged infatuation with sex workers and OnlyFans models — along with embarrassing photos of him posing seductively with absurdly large prosthetic breasts.

/1 Comment/in , , /by

A Texas man was arrested on Wednesday after allegedly planning to attack the State Capitol, according to officials.

Benny Caldera Jr., 40, was taken into custody early Wednesday morning at his home in Converse, Texas. He was charged with the felony offense of making a terroristic threat against a public servant and taken to the Bexar County Jail.

The Texas Department of Public Safety said in a news release it received “credible information” on Tuesday about someone plotting a “violent attack” for Thursday on the Capitol.

DPS special agents worked alongside the FBI and local law enforcement agencies to investigate the threat.

Around 3 a.m. on Wednesday, DPS SWAT arrested Caldera, who the agency described as the “main suspect,” at his home and transported him to jail.

“Outstanding work by @TxDPS. Proud of our @FBISanAntonio team for standing shoulder-to-shoulder with our state and local partners. Within HOURS of the tip, @TxDPS had the main suspect in custody — with @FBISanAntonio and local law enforcement assisting. Threaten Americans or our institutions and law enforcement will move FAST,” FBI Director Kash Patel wrote on X.
