First Black Member of Secret Service Finally Testifies to JFK Committee, Details Chicago Assassination Plot

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The man John F. Kennedy called “the Jackie Robinson” of the Secret Service finally got to testify before a Congressional committee Tuesday — alleging fellow agents were often drunk on the job and there was a so-called “Chicago plot” to kill the president before his 1963 assassination in Dallas.

His head bowed, Abraham Bolden, 90, spoke with difficulty into a microphone when he addressed the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform by Zoom from his home in Chicago. The committee is probing the assassination of the president.

But the audio cut off immediately as Bolden began to speak, effectively muting his testimony on the live stream.

“On June 6, 1961, I walked into history,” said Bolden, according to a transcript obtained by The Post. “I was assigned to the White House detail in Washington, DC to assist in protecting the life of the president. And I never met a more human and fair-minded person than President Kennedy.”

The Trump administration released tens of thousands of previously classified documents with respect to the assassination of John F. Kennedy, his younger brother Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. (Read more from “First Black Member of Secret Service Finally Testifies to JFK Committee, Details Chicago Assassination Plot” HERE)

4 Common Handwashing Mistakes That Could Be Making Many Americans Sick

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Proper handwashing could save a million lives a year, according to an expert — and yet many people are doing it improperly, often due to misconceptions surrounding the practice. . .

The NFID 2025 State of Handwashing Report, recently released by the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases, provides details on Americans’ handwashing habits (and mistakes). . .

1. Only using hand sanitizer

“We have to recognize that there are a number of important infections that hand sanitizers are not effective at preventing,” Hopkins said.

2. Just coughing into your sleeve

When people cough or sneeze into their sleeve, they could still spread germs afterward.

“If you cough into your sleeve … go ahead and wash your hands with soap and water as well,” Hopkins advised. (Read more from “4 Common Handwashing Mistakes That Could Be Making Many Americans Sick” HERE)

Trump Says Biden Didn’t Destroy The Country — Accuses Other ‘Treasonous Thugs’ Instead

/2 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. President Donald Trump said Tuesday that his predecessor did not destroy the country, rather it was his staff around him who “knew he was cognitively impaired.”

Trump posted on Truth Social that Biden was “not for open borders” and that it was his staff who put the United States in “great danger.” The president called it “treason.”

“Joe Biden was not for Open Borders, he never talked about Open Borders, where criminals of all kinds, shapes, and sizes, can flow into our Country at will,” Trump wrote. “It wasn’t his idea to Open the Border, and almost destroy our Country, and cost us Hundreds of Billions of Dollars to get criminals out of our Country, and go through the process we are going through now. It was the people that knew he was cognitively impaired, and that took over the Autopen. They stole the Presidency of the United States, and put us in Great Danger.”

“This is TREASON at the Highest Level! They did it to destroy our Country. The Joe Biden that everybody knew would never allow drug dealers, gang members, and the mentally insane to come into our Country totally unchecked and unvetted. All anyone has to do is look up his record,” he continued. “Something very severe should happen to these Treasonous Thugs that wanted to destroy our Country, but couldn’t, because I came along. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Axios’ Alex Thompson and CNN anchor Jake Tapper recently released a book on Biden’s physical and mental decline while he was in the White House, leaving the media and the public engrossed on what exactly happened during the Biden administration and how. Across more than 200 interviews with White House and party officials, Tapper and Thompson reported that aides were considering putting Biden in a wheelchair and that he did not recognize his longtime friend George Clooney at a fundraiser.

Donald Trump Accuses People Around Joe Biden of Treason

By Newsweek. President Donald Trump has accused members of former President Joe Biden’s team of treason, saying that they “took over the autopen” and exposed the United States to “great danger.”

The comment was posted by Trump on his Truth Social website on Tuesday. . .

Trump initially released a statement wishing his predecessor a “fast and successful recovery,” but he now joins the chorus of Republican voices accusing Democratic officials of covering up for an elderly president who was unable to properly govern.

In his Truth Social post, Trump said Biden “was not for Open Borders…where criminals of all kinds, shapes, and sizes, can flow into our Country at will.”

Instead, he said such a policy had been pursued by “the people that knew he [Biden] was cognitively impaired, and that took over the Autopen.” (Read more from “Donald Trump Accuses People Around Joe Biden of Treason” HERE)

Trump Suggests Biden Diagnosis Could Be Part Of Bigger Conspiracy

/19 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. President Donald Trump suggested on Monday that there may be a larger conspiracy at work following former President Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis.

Trump addressed Biden’s stage four prostate cancer diagnosis while in the Oval Office, calling the situation “very sad.” The president added that people should look into how Biden’s cancer developed into a dangerous situation with no earlier detection.

“If it’s the same doctor who said there was nothing wrong there, that’s being proven to be a sad situation,” Trump told reporters. “In other words, there are things going on that the public wasn’t informed. And I think somebody is going to have to speak to his doctor, if it’s the same or even if it’s two separate doctors. Why wasn’t the cognitive ability — why wasn’t that discussed? I think the doctors said he’s just fine, and it’s turned out that’s not so. It’s very dangerous. Look, this is no longer politically correct. This is dangerous for our country.”

Biden’s team announced Sunday that the former president had been diagnosed with an “aggressive” cancer, which has spread to his bones. Since, many doctors have come forward to express concern about how the cancer was caught so late.

Doctors and cancer experts told the Daily Caller that Biden likely had cancer while he was in the White House. Such a type of cancer, the metastasization from prostate cancer spreading to the bones, typically takes at least five years, experts told the Caller.

A Medical Doctor Dropped a Bombshell on MSNBC About Biden’s Cancer Diagnosis

By Townhall. . .It’s a cover-up—Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, Rahm’s brother, an oncologist and a fellow at the left-wing Center for American Progress, admitted on MSNBC. Though he didn’t say it outright, he told host Joe Scarborough that cancer doesn’t metastasize to your bones in 100-200 days. Dr. Emanuel said that Biden had had this cancer for years, likely at the start of his presidency in 2021.

“Oh yeah. [Biden] did not develop it in the last 100, 200 days. He had it while he was president, he said. “He probably had it at the start of his presidency in 2021. Yes, I don’t think there’s any disagreement about that.”

Biden was the president of the United States. The health of this person is checked every year. He’s at an age where a prostate exam is done annually. Did the White House medical staff not know or miss this? Doubtful. Emanuel isn’t a fan of the test regarding accuracy, but he also added that if Biden had taken it, there would’ve been obvious signs of trouble.

Study: Long COVID ‘Brain Fog’ Linked to Inflammation, Stress Markers

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A new study indicates the debilitating “brain fog” suffered by millions of long COVID patients is linked to changes in the brain, including inflammation and an impaired ability to rewire itself following COVID-19 infection.

United Press International reported this week that the small-scale study, conducted by researchers at Corewell Health in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Michigan State University, shows that altered levels of a pair of key brain chemicals could be the culprit.

The study marks the first time doctors have been able to provide scientific proof that validates the experiences of the approximately 12 million COVID “long-haulers” in the U.S. who have reported neurological symptoms.

Researchers looked at biomarkers in study participants and found that those complaining of brain fog had higher levels of an anti-inflammatory protein that is crucial to regulating a person’s immune system, UPI reported. They also showed lower serum levels of nerve growth factor, a protein vital to the brain’s plasticity.

The study examined 17 COVID-19 patients, including 10 who still experienced symptoms six months after contracting the virus. The most debilitating symptom is brain fog, described by Yale Medicine as “sluggish” thinking, forgetfulness, difficulty processing information and an inability to focus or concentrate on tasks they used to complete with ease.

‘This Is Odd’: Yale Doctor Flags ‘Inconceivable’ Part of Joe Biden’s Cancer News

/3 Comments/in , , /by

By Raw Story. A medical scholar and physician known for mocking Republicans is asking questions about former President Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis. . .

On the left, most simply said they wished Biden the best, but not Howie Forman, a professor of radiology and biomedical imaging, public health (health policy), management, and economics at Yale University.

Forman said, “It is inconceivable that this was not being followed before he left the Presidency.”

“Gleason grade 9 would have had an elevated PSA level for some time before this diagnosis. And he must have had a PSA test numerous times before,” he added. “This is odd. I wish him well and hope he has an opportunity for maximizing his quality of life.”

An X user named Adam Brown responded to Forman, saying, “If they followed the guidelines of the AUA and US Preventative Services Task force, they would have stopped PSA testing at age 70.”

Biden Diagnosed With Aggressive Prostate Cancer

By Breitbart. Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer that is “characterized by a Gleason score of 9,” his office revealed in a statement Sunday.

In a press release from Biden’s personal office, it was revealed that while Biden’s prostate cancer “represents a more aggressive form of the disease,” the former president’s cancer “appears to be hormone-sensitive.”

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms,” the press release said. “On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone. While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.” (Read more from “Biden Diagnosed With Aggressive Prostate Cancer” HERE)

Report: $5 Million Settlement Reached in Ashli Babbitt Wrongful Death Lawsuit

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The Trump administration will reportedly pay $5 million to settle the wrongful death suit brought by the family of January 6 rioter Ashli Babbitt.

Babbitt was shot and killed by U.S. Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd when trying to storm a barricade into the House Speaker’s lobby during the Capitol Hill riot on January 6, 2021. Her supporters, including President Trump, have claimed she was dealt with excessive force while the police officer maintains that he did his duty to protect then-sitting members of the U.S. Congress. Per the Washington Post:

Babbitt’s family filed the wrongful-death lawsuit in early 2024, seeking $30 million. Lawyers for both sides told a judge this month that they had reached a settlement in principle, reversing the Justice Department’s earlier opposition in the case, which had been set for trial in July 2026.

No final deal had been signed and terms had not been disclosed at the May 2 hearing. Judge Ana C. Reyes of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia directed both sides to update the court this Thursday.

Two people briefed on the matter said the Justice Department has agreed in principle to pay just under $5 million to Babbitt’s family. The two people spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a pending court matter.

Is This Noah’s Ark? Clues Emerge at Mysterious Remote Site

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An independent researcher who has devoted his time to exploring a location near Mount Ararat that is believed by some to be the remains of Noah’s ark is speaking out.

Andrew Jones, who runs Noah’s Ark Scans, a group he described as “a loose organization of individuals interested in pursuing scientific work and promoting [the ark site],” said he became interested in the Genesis flood story when he was a child.

Years later, in college, this intrigue expanded when he visited Turkey and saw the location for himself. . .

JJones said Noah’s Ark Scans works with scientists to explore the Mount Ararat site in an effort to take steps toward discerning whether it truly is the resting place of the massive biblical vessel.

“This last year, we had an Australian soil scientist come out there, and he suggested a soil test that we could do because we noticed, for example, that the grass growing in this boat formation was a different color than right outside the boat object,” he said. “So [he] and the local Turkish geologists designed a test, and they got the samples, and we got some … really interesting results.”

One of the central questions surrounding the ark site is why, if it’s believed to potentially hold these remains, it has taken so long to do discernible and definitive research.

FBI Director Confirms Foiled ISIS Attack on US Soil

/2 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed Thursday that an ISIS plot to murder Americans in Michigan was foiled.

“I can now confirm reports that our FBI teams and partners foiled an attempted ISIS attack on one of our U.S. military bases in Warren, Michigan,” Patel announced on X. “The individual, Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said, plotted a mass shooting at the U.S. Army’s Tank-Automotive & Armaments Command (TACOM) facility before multiple undercover law enforcement officers obtained information of his plans.”

“Said was arrested this week and will now face charges of supporting a foreign terrorist organization, among others,” he continued. “Our agents, intelligence teams, and partners acted quickly — and they saved lives. Well done to all on executing the mission.”

According to the Department of Justice, Said was a former member of the Michigan National Guard.

“This defendant is charged with planning a deadly attack on a U.S. military base here at home for ISIS,” DOJ National Security Division Director Sue Bai added in a statement. “Thanks to the tireless efforts of law enforcement, we foiled the attack before lives were lost. We will not hesitate to bring the full force of the Department to find and prosecute those who seek to harm our men and women in the military and to protect all Americans.”

FBI Thwarts ISIS-Inspired Attack on US Army Base; Former National Guard Member Charged

By ABC News. A former member of the Michigan Army National Guard has been arrested after he allegedly tried to carry out a plan to conduct a mass shooting at a U.S. military base in Michigan on behalf of the ISIS terrorist organization, the Justice Department said Wednesday.

Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said, 19, was arrested on Tuesday, which authorities say was the scheduled day of the attack, after he visited an area near the military base and launched a drone in support of the attack plan, according to the Justice Department.

Said allegedly planned to attack the Army’s Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command, which is located in a Detroit suburb and manages the Army’s supply chain for tanks. According to federal prosecutors, Said offered to help undercover law enforcement officers carry out the attack by training them to use firearms and make Molotov cocktails and by providing armor-piercing ammunition and magazines for the attack.

Said has been charged with attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization and with distributing information related to a destructive device. Court documents did not list an attorney for Said.

Said spent two years in the Michigan Army National Guard until he was discharged in December, according to court documents. (Read more from “FBI Thwarts ISIS-Inspired Attack on US Army Base; Former National Guard Member Charged” HERE)
