FBI releases file on Trump’s first wife

 

The agency spent two years looking into Ivana Trump’s connections in her home country of Czechoslovakia

 

The FBI spent two years investigating former US president Donald Trump’s first wife, Ivana Trump, over alleged ties to questionable elements in her native Czechoslovakia, according to records released by the agency and published by Bloomberg on Monday.

 

The FBI released 176 pages of Trump’s file, having reviewed 365 pages, according to a cover letter accompanying the documents on Friday. The agency reportedly told Bloomberg it had found nearly 900 pages of “potentially responsive documents” in total, warning it would take up to five years to deliver them all, but promised to release the rest next month after Bloomberg sued them.

 

A heavily redacted document from February 1989 stamped “secret” and later declassified recommends the opening of a preliminary inquiry on Trump, born Ivana Zelnickova and previously known as Ivana Winklmayr, based on information from a confidential source.

 

However, another “secret” document acknowledges that the “allegations” made against her could potentially “stem from jealousies of her wealth and fame.”

 

The file initially describes Trump as a former Olympic skier who met Donald Trump in 1975 “on a ski trip” and married him two years later. A later revision claims the pair met in 1976 “at the Montreal Summer Olympics,” while a third version describes her as the “alternate for the Czech Olympic ski team” who moved to Montreal to model before marrying the real estate mogul.

 

Later, more details are filled in – she moved to Vienna to work as a model after graduating from university in Prague, married an Austrian whose name is redacted (presumably Winklmayr) and obtained Austrian citizenship, then moved to Montreal. There, “conflicting information” indicates she was either a model or ski instructor and made frequent visits to the US before obtaining permanent residency there in 1978 – a year after marrying Trump.

 

The documents inquire into the circumstances of her moves from then-Communist Czechoslovakia to Austria and from Austria to Canada, her marriages, employment, travel, and associations with redacted entities. A rare unredacted document states that a “highly confidential and reliable source” reported Trump received an autographed book from Czechoslovakian President Vaclav Havel during a visit to the country in 1990 and would likely be visiting again that year.

 

By the end of 1990, however, “no outstanding leads remain,” and the investigation was closed.

 

Ivana Trump died aged 73 from a fall in her home last year, eliminating the confidentiality rights protecting her file while she was alive.

At UN Security Council: Biden Regime Rejects Calls for International Investigation of Nord Stream Attack – Russia May Demand Compensation

 

The Biden Regime refused to support calls for an international investigation into the Nord Stream attack in the United Nations Security Council Monday. Russia says it may demand reparations for the destruction of the pipeline, which Russian President Putin says will be solved one day.

 

Only Russia, China and Brazil voted for an international investigation into the Nord Stream attack at the United Nations Security Council Monday evening. The other 12 nations abstained, including the permanent UNSC members the United States, UK and France, as well as Albania, Gabon, Ghana, Malta, Mozambique, the UAE, Switzerland, Ecuador and Japan. The measure thus did not reach the necessary majority of 9 votes.

 

“Without an objective and transparent international investigation the truth will not be uncovered as to what happened,” Russian UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia said.

 

“The United States was not involved in any way. Period,” said deputy U.S. ambassador to the U.N., Robert Wood, accusing Russia of trying to “discredit the work of ongoing national investigations and prejudice any conclusions they reach that do not comport to Russia’s predetermined and political narrative.”

 

Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov Monday raised the possibility that Russia may demand compensation for the Nord Stream pipeline, which Gazprom co-owned with European energy companies.

 

“If we are talking about, let’s say, sabotage by one or more state actors – and, thus far, the data indicates that such a large-scale act of sabotage and terrorist act on a critically important piece of infrastructure could not have been committed without the involvement of state actors and special state services with all the potential they can deploy – in this case, of course, that would be an entirely justified question,” Peskov said, adding this is so far only a hypothetical discussion. First it is necessary to identify the persons responsible for the attacks, Peskov said.

 

Peskov accused Western countries of “making every effort to whitewash this topic, to paper it over, so that it disappears from the agenda. But, of course, Russia will continue to do everything possible to prevent this from happening.”

 

Speaking on Russian TV Saturday, Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed with American journalist Seymour Hersh that the USA is behind in the Nord Stream pipeline explosions. “The American journalist, who has become rather famous now worldwide, carried out such an investigation and as we know, drew a conclusion that blast on the gas pipelines was organized by the US special services. I fully agree with such conclusions,” Putin said.

 

Putin said the truth about the Nord Stream attack will eventually come out: “I believe that it will be hard to attain this, but someday it will come out what was done and how.”

 

The truth about the Nord Stream attack will come out, Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said: “From what I understand the truth about Nord Stream will come out. I have no doubt, it’s one hundred percent,” Zakharova said, the truth “has already begun to break through”.

BPro’s TotalVote Used in Multiple States in the US, Allows the Installation of “Plug-Ins” that Can Be Used to Manipulate Election Data

 

This report was developed by election experts in New Mexico and Hawaii with special recognition to Attorney David Clements and his wife Erin.

 

Election Experts in Hawaii discovered that the TotalVote election system used in the state can backdate election records. This isn’t all that it can do.

 

Yesterday TGP reported on the TotalVote election system in Hawaii which is connected to the Internet, is not certified, and can backdate election records.

 

There is much more to this story. It is much deeper than proving Hawaii’s voter rolls have backdated election entries. We learned from experts in Hawaii that all the suspicious entries were added with a single computer.

 

The UUID format used in Hawaii is created by a software component called a “plug-in.” Plug-ins are software libraries that can be loaded and run by an existing computer program and they can be customized. Common examples of plug-ins are ad blockers or promo code finders that can be used to customize a web browser.

 

The fact that BPro software allows plug-ins to operate within their software system is a massive security vulnerability.

 

A plug-in could be added at any time after the initial software installation and the customer, and even the software developer, would never know.

 

Plug-ins are reloaded every time a piece of software is restarted.

 

The concern for election infrastructure using BPro/KnowINK products is this:

 

Plug-ins can easily be swapped out as needed to rig an election or manipulate the way a voter roll was being consolidated. Plug-ins are vulnerable in any election where the computer software plug-in is running, and the system is internet-connected.

 

An opportunity for bad actors to rig or modify the election infrastructure recently occurred in New Mexico’s elections. Below is an email that reminded county clerks and KnowINK that there was a planned system outage of their version of BPro’s TotalVote called SERVIS.

French banks raided in tax evasion sting

 

The lenders are suspected of helping investors avoid paying taxes on dividends

 

The Paris offices of five major banks were searched on Tuesday amid a probe into suspected money laundering and tax evasion related to dividend payments, several media outlets reported on Tuesday.

 

The raids in question took place at the offices of Societe Generale, BNP Paribas, Exane and Natixis, as well as those of British banking giant HSBC, according to Le Monde, which was the first to break the news.

 

Societe Generale confirmed the searches to Reuters, but abstained from further comments. The other four banks did not comment on the reports.

 

France’s National Financial Prosecutor’s Office (PNF) later confirmed reports of the raids in a statement, adding that the investigation was linked to the so-called “cum-cum” dividend strategy, a scheme whereby a bank temporarily transfers shares of a stock to a foreign investor ahead of a dividend payout to avoid paying the dividend tax.

 

The dividends are either not taxed or the taxes are refunded to the foreign investor. The shares are subsequently returned to the original owner and the two parties split the amount saved – an amount that would have been taxed had the securities remained with the original owner.

 

PNF said the ongoing probe, which was opened back in 2021, is being carried out by 16 investigating judges and over 150 agents. According to a Bloomberg report, the five banks face collective fines of more than €1 billion ($1.1 billion) in connection with the investigation.

 

The searches came as yet another hit to the global banking industry, which is still reeling from bank failures in the US and the government-brokered rescue takeover of Switzerland’s Credit Suisse by rival UBS.

Bombshell Vax Analysis Finds $147 Billion In Economic Damage, Tens Of Millions Injured Or Disabled

 

A new report estimates that 26.6 million people were injured, 1.36 million disabled, and 300,000 excess deaths can be attributed to COVID-19 vaccine damages in 2022 alone, which cost the economy nearly $150 billion.

 

Research firm Phinance Technologies, founded and operated by former Blackrock portfolio manager Ed Dowd, Yuri Nunes (PhD Physics, MSc Mathematics) and Carlos Alegria (PhD Physics, Finance), split the impact of the vaccines into four broad categories to estimate the human costs associated with the Covid-19 vaccine; no effect or asymptomatic, those who sustained injuries (mild-to-moderate outcome), those who became disabled (severe outcome), and death (extreme outcome). Data on vaccine disabilities and injuries comes directly from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), while the excess death figures are derived from official figures on deaths in the US via two different methods (methodology here).

 

It's important to note that people in one category (injured, for example) can move into latter categories of severity - which this analysis does not take into consideration.

 

"We need to remember that not only are these groupings an attempt to characterize different levels of damage from the inoculations, they are not static and could interact with each other," reads the report. "For instance, there might be individuals who had no visible effects after vaccination but nonetheless could still be impacted."

 

"Individuals with mild injuries from the inoculations could, over time, develop severe injuries to the extent of being disabled, or an extreme outcome such as death."

 

Estimating the economic cost

 

In analyzing each of the above categories, Phinance used absolute excess lost worktime (see previous report) to determine that the direct economic cost of vaccine injuries was $79.5 billion in 2022, and $52.2 billion for those with severe disabilities.

 

For deaths, Phinace used the average yearly absolute rise in excess deaths since 2021, which was 0.05% for the 25-64 year-old demographic, which amounted to $5.6 billion in lost productivity.

 

In total, they found a total "economic cost" of $147.8 billion in 2022 due to the Covid-19 vaccines.

Russia Calls Out 'Nuclear Weapons Hypocrisy': US Has Tactical Nukes In 5 Non-Nuclear Weapon States

 

The Kremlin has blasted what a Russian official called the United States' "vivid example of hypocrisy" as part of the latest war of words in the wake of President Putin's announcing he has stationed tactical nuclear weapons in neighboring Belarus.

 

Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov on Tuesday called out Washington's "extremely short memory" - given it "has long been systematically destroying the legal basis of bilateral relations in strategic sphere," which is a reference to the collapse of multiple nuclear treaties of late, including 'Open Skies' and the INF Treaty in 2019. New START is also looking to come to an end at the rate things are going.

 

At the start of this week Western officials sounded the alarm over Putin's fresh announcement, which many within NATO countries interpreted as but the latest 'expansionist' threat.

 

CBS recounts of what Putin said:

 

Russia has ratcheted up tensions with the West amid its ongoing war against Ukraine, with President Vladimir Putin saying Moscow will deploy "tactical nuclear weapons" in Belarus. The Russian leader said 10 fighter jets capable of carrying tactical nuclear weapons — generally a reference to smaller weapons used for limited battlefield attacks, rather than larger, long-range "strategic" nuclear weapons — were already deployed in Belarus. Putin said Russia would also position nuclear-armed Iskander hypersonic missiles, with a range of around 300 miles, in Belarus.

 

In response, the US State Department condemned the Russian leader's "irresponsible nuclear rhetoric," and said that "no other country is inflicting such damage on arms control, nor seeking to undermine strategic stability in Europe."

 

The scathing denunciation had been issued by US State Department representative Vedant Patel. Amb. Antonov addressed the American official by name, saying, "As for Mr Patel's words regarding our President's statements on the Russian-Belarusian cooperation in the military-nuclear sphere, it is a vivid example of hypocrisy of the American politics," in a statement released by the Russian Embassy.

 

Antonov underscored that the US has long stationed nuclear weapons not far from Russia: "For the last 60 years Washington has been playing a key role in NATO’s nuclear sharing missions by supporting deployment of its tactical nuclear weapons in five non-nuclear weapon states - Belgium, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, and Turkey," he said. Putin had days ago voiced a similar rationale…

China wants Nord Stream attackers ‘brought to justice’

 

Beijing has accused Washington of “double standards” over its stance on investigating the sabotage of the pipelines

 

The Chinese Foreign Ministry has said the saboteurs of the Nord Stream pipelines must face consequences, as it condemned America’s failure to support a UN-led investigation into the incident. A Russian-sponsored resolution for an international probe did not pass a vote at the UN Security Council earlier this week.

 

Speaking at a media briefing on Tuesday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning claimed that Washington is “keen to carry out so-called ‘investigations’ of developing nations, yet is secretive on this incident.” The diplomat argued that the US attitude was an example of “obvious double standards,” and suggested that officials in Washington were “afraid of” something. Mao added that China hopes the perpetrators will be “brought to justice” as soon as possible.

 

China, Russia, and Brazil backed the draft resolution for an international Nord Stream investigation in a UN Security Council vote on Monday, although 12 other members abstained. If adopted, the resolution would have requested the secretary general to establish a commission to conduct a “comprehensive, transparent, and impartial international investigation” of the incident, which happened in September last year.

 

The US claimed the proposal was intended to undermine the national investigations being run by Germany, Denmark, and Sweden. Germany was the intended recipient of Russian natural gas pumped through the sabotaged pipelines. Denmark and Sweden are conducting probes as the explosions which ruptured the energy link occurred in their territorial waters.

 

China’s deputy representative to the UN, Geng Shuang, argued that there was no obstacle to holding an international investigation in parallel with national ones.

 

Geng also noted that the trio of European nations had already had six months to conduct their probes. Beijing expects them “to increase their sense of urgency, report the progress of the investigations to the Security Council in a timely and regular manner, and find out and announce the results of the investigations as soon as possible,” the Chinese delegation said in a statement.

 

Veteran investigative journalist Seymour Hersh claimed last month that the attack on the Nord Stream pipelines was ordered by US President Joe Biden and was conducted jointly by America and Norway. Both nations have denied those allegations. Russian President Vladimir Putin said last week that he “fully agreed” with Hersh’s conclusions.

SBF Charged With Funneling $40M In Crypto To Bribe CCP Officials

 

Federal prosecutors in Manhattan have hit FTX founder Sam Bankman Fried ("SBF") with a new 13-count indictment accusing him of funneling $40 million in cryptocurrency to 'one or more' Chinese government officials, in order to "influence and induce them" to unfreeze Alameda Research trading accounts holding over $1 billion in crypto.

 

He is accused of conspiring to violate anti-bribery provisions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

 

In the Tuesday court filing, prosecutors asked US District Judge Lewis Kaplan to arrange a court hearing in order to arraign Bankman-Fried on the new charges.

 

"The S5 Indictment, which was unsealed this morning, includes the twelve counts contained in the S3 Superseding Indictment, as well an additional count for conspiracy to violate the anti-bribery provisions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ('FCPA'), in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371," reads a letter to the judge, Coindesk reports.

French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has ordered 13,000 police officers into the streets of France’s major cities as protests against the government’s controversial pension reforms continue. Darmanin said that he is expecting “radical activists” from abroad to instigate violence at the demonstrations.

 

Darmanin announced the deployment on Monday night, adding that 5,000 of the mobilized officers would be stationed in Paris ahead of marches on Tuesday.

 

“Our services anticipate that there will be significant disruption to public order,” he said, warning that “more than 1,000 radical activists, some arriving from abroad, may join the protests in Paris, Nantes or Rennes.”

 

Darmanin said that these “radical activists” are mostly left-wingers and anarchists who are known to police. “Their goals are to destabilize our republican institutions and bring blood and fire down on France,” he claimed.

 

France has been hit with constant protests and riots since President Emmanuel Macron bypassed parliament earlier this month to pass a bill raising the retirement age for most workers from 62 to 64. More than a million demonstrators took to the streets last Thursday, and hundreds were arrested in Paris after clashing with police and lighting fires on the streets of the French capital.

 

As of Tuesday afternoon, the demonstrations in Paris remained mostly peaceful. However, masked rioters in Nantes set cars on fire and hurled rocks at police, who responded with tear gas. Protesters in Paris and Marseille blocked railway lines, while a group of demonstrators set off a smoke bomb in Biarritz Airport, triggering alarms and leading to an evacuation.

 

The Council of Europe has condemned the government for using excessive force against protesters, while France’s National Consultative Commission on Human Rights issued a report last week accusing police of arresting hundreds of demonstrators without cause.

 

Macron is insistent on keeping his reforms in place. “I have no regrets pushing for this necessary reform,” he said in a televised interview last week, adding that he accepts “unpopularity” as a result. Macron has long argued that France’s pension system will go bankrupt unless the retirement age is raised, while his opponents have called on the president to make up for the shortfall by increasing taxes on the wealthy instead.

Madonna to perform concert in Nashville, donate proceeds to 'trans rights' groups

 

Pop icon Madonna just announced that she is adding a Nashville stop on her upcoming "Celebration Tour," set to begin later this year.

 

The 64-year-old singer made the announcement on Instagram on Monday, stating that she added the Nashville concert at Bridgestone Arena because of new Tennessee laws that severely restrict drag shows and so-called "gender-affirming care" for children. She criticized those laws as "unfounded and pathetic" and claimed that they make "America a dangerous place for our most vulnerable citizens, especially trans women of color."

 

"The oppression of the LGBTQ+ is … unacceptable and inhumane," Madonna stated.

 

Madonna also stated that Bob the Drag Queen, a recent winner of RuPaul's "Drag Race" show, will join her in Music City on December 22.

 

"Anyone with half a brain knows not to f*** with a drag queen," Madonna wrote on Instagram. "Bob and I will see you from the stage in Nashville where we will celebrate the beauty that is the Queer community!"

They’re Just Getting Started…Transgender Militants Call for Widespread Violence Against Christians

 

Transgenders and their supporters have long called for the mass murder of Christians.

 

Hyper-violent transgender militants say they’re just getting started after a targeted attack on a Nashville Christian school by a woman claiming to be a man who took the lives of three young children and three of their teachers before the trans mass shooter was eliminated by the police.

 

The mass shooting in Nashville was far from the one-off act of violence that pro-trans pundits and politicians are telling the American People that it was, and is in fact just the latest mass shooting to be carried out by a murderer claiming to be transgender. In the case of the Nashville attack, Christian children were deliberately targeted for slaughter as they attended school, something that those in the radically left-wing LGBT movement have been threatening for quite some time.

 

On the same day that Audrey Hale, a woman who claims to be a man, murdered six in Nashville, pro-trans radicals in other parts of the country demonstrated in favor of violence against those who oppose their movement.

 

“The mass shooting in Nashville today wasn’t a one-off,” nationally-syndicated news host and defender of Christian values Stew Peters posted to Twitter, along with a disturbing image of a pro-trans demonstrator in Oklahoma City, who on the same day as the anti-Christian Nashville massacre held a sign threatening to shoot anyone dead who opposes “trans rights.”

 

“Trannies have declared WAR on Christians,” Peters wrote above the photograph.

Suspect in stabbing of Rand Paul staffer was released from 12-year prison term 1 day before attack

 

The man who apparently attacked Sen. Rand Paul’s staffer on Saturday had been released from a 12-year prison sentence just one day before the attack.

 

The man who apparently attacked Sen. Rand Paul’s (R-KY) staffer on Saturday had been released from a 12-year prison sentence just one day before the attack was carried out.

 

Glynn Neal, the alleged attacker, was sentenced to 12 years and four months in prison in 2011 on charges of “compelling an individual to live a life of prostitution without his or her consent” and “threat to kidnap to injure a person,” per Fox 5.

 

The report noted that Paul staffer Phillip Todd was approached by Neal on a street in Washington, DC before stabbing Todd, resulting in “life-threatening injuries,” according to Paul’s office.

 

Paul released a statement, saying: "This past weekend a member of my staff was brutally attacked in broad daylight in Washington, D.C. I ask you to join Kelley and me in praying for a speedy and complete recovery, and thanking the first responders, hospital staff, and police for their diligent actions. We are relieved to hear the suspect has been arrested. At this time we would ask for privacy so everyone can focus on healing and recovery.”

 

The DC Police Department posted on Twitter, saying that the Metropolitan Police had made an arrest. The arrest was reportedly made in reference to “an Assault with Intent to Kill (Knife).”

Media Outlets Apologize for Correctly Identifying Transgender Shooter as a Woman

 

The New York Times and USA Today complied with radical gender ideology by apologizing for correctly identifying the Nashville Christian School shooting suspect as a woman.

 

Soon after the shooting at Nashville’s Covenant School on Monday, in which three students and three adults were shot and killed, police identified the suspected shooter as 28-year-old Audrey Hale. A little while later, officials stated that Hale, who was killed by police during the attack, identified as transgender — meaning Hale allegedly believed she was a man.

 

Following the revelation that Audrey was a woman who identified as a man, both USA Today and The New York Times were quick to issue statements on Twitter, seemingly apologizing for adhering to biological reality by correctly calling Hale a woman. The publications also appeared to scrub references to Hale as a female from online news articles.

Sen. Roger Marshall Plots Crackdown On Chinese Communist Party Spying

 

Republican Kansas Sen. Roger Marshall introduced legislation Tuesday that would create an anonymous tip-line for concerned citizens to report suspected Chinese Communist Party espionage activities.

 

The Chinese Communist Party operates a network of police stations located outside the country, the human rights organization Safeguard Defenders revealed in 2022. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) shut down a Chinatown, New York, station, although the CCP still operates the outposts in dozens of countries. Chinese government operatives reportedly use the stations to monitor local Chinese emigrants, and in some cases extraordinarily render them back to China.

 

Marshall’s bill, obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller, creates an FBI tip-line for individuals to use and report the existence of the police stations. It also prohibits CCP agents from “perform[ing] any function of a law enforcement agency; or engag[ing] in surveillance, harassment, intimidation, or coercion of another person in the U.S.” Any individual who violates the statute may be sentenced to ten years in prison.

Rep. Matt Gaetz Introduces Bill to Withdraw from Somalia

 

The War Powers Resolution would direct President Biden to pull out of the country within 365 days

 

On Tuesday, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) introduced a War Powers Resolution that would direct President Biden to remove armed forces from Somalia that is cosponsored by Reps. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) and Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL).

 

The resolution would mandate the removal of all US armed forces from Somalia, with the exception of embassy security, within 365 days of the bill being adopted. The resolution is privileged, meaning the House will have to vote on the measure within 18 days.

 

The introduction comes after Gaetz grilled Gen. Michael Langley, the head of US Africa Command (AFRICOM), about the pattern of the US military training African coup leaders.

 

“The American people have extremely low confidence in our military leaders and their ability to assess their own efficacy. How do they expect Americans to believe their justification for occupying Somalia when they can’t even determine who in their own training programs will lead a violent coup afterwards?” Gaetz said in a statement.

 

Earlier this month, the House voted down a Syria War Powers Resolution that was introduced by Gaetz. “When the House debated my resolution to withdraw troops from Syria, both Republicans and Democrats argued the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) against Afghanistan serves as a global permission slip for every neocon fantasy. They will argue the same for Somalia,” Gaetz said.

 

The 2001 AUMF, which was passed in the wake of the September 11 attacks for the invasion of Afghanistan, is used today to justify the US war against al-Shabaab, a group that didn’t exist when the authorization first became law. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) introduced an amendment in the Senate to repeal the 2001 AUMF last week, but it failed in a vote of 9-86.

 

The US war against al-Shabaab in Somalia has escalated since President Biden ordered the deployment of up to 500 troops to the country in May 2022. The Biden administration recently vowed that it would increase support for the Mogadishu-based government.

 

The US-backed government launched a major offensive against al-Shabaab last year, leading to more US airstrikes, although AFRICOM has not reported any strikes in the month of March. The last airstrike in Somalia that AFRICOM reported took place on February 21.

 

The US military portrays al-Shabaab as a major threat due to its size and affiliation with al-Qaeda, but it’s widely believed the group doesn’t have ambitions outside of Somalia. Al-Shabaab was born out of a US-backed Ethiopian invasion of Somalia that was launched in 2006, and the group didn’t declare loyalty to al-Qaeda until 2012, after years of fighting the US and its proxies.

Feds arrest US soldier for trying to meet with child for sex

 

Federal authorities recently arrested a Fort Carson soldier and four other civilians on allegations of attempting to meet a minor for sexual activities in a child exploitation operation. The suspects had agreed to meet the juvenile at a predetermined location following online conversations.

 

According to a statement from the Army Criminal Investigation Division’s Rocky Mountain Field Office, the unidentified soldier is assigned to the 10th Special Forces Command and was apprehended, along with the other four civilian suspects, by federal investigators after a two-day operation from March 17th-18th.

 

The release highlighted that the accused soldier would be referred to the Army for prosecution while the other four civilian suspects will be referred to civilian courts for prosecution.

 

Ryan O’Connor, the special agent-in-charge, stated in the release, “These predators exist in the community, and we want to send the message that we will do whatever it takes to bring them to justice.”

According to City of Fountain Government in Colorado, 26-year-old Josef Smith, another Fort Carson soldier, was arrested earlier this year for alleged sexual exploitation of children. The city reported on the story after Smith was arrested following a search warrant. The Facebook post stated that Smith “was arrested on February 8, 2023, at approximately 9:30 AM. He was booked into the El Paso County Justice Center on felony charges related to the Sexual Exploitation of Children (Possession and Distribution of Child Sexual Abuse Material).”

 

According to Military Times, Maj. Russell M. Gordon, a spokesperson for 1st Special Forces Command, said, “We are aware of the incident regarding Army CID’s apprehension of a 10th Special Forces Group [s]oldier.”

 

“Army CID referred the [s]oldier to the command, where he will face consideration for legal action in accordance with the uniform code of military justice,” he continued. “We will continue to cooperate with CID and law enforcement authorities. We strongly condemn this alleged misconduct, which is not compatible with Army and Special Operations values to which the overwhelming majority of our [s]oldiers abide by.”

Thousands march in Tel Aviv despite PM halting judicial overhaul process

 

With coalition and opposition set to meet in Jerusalem for compromise talks, protesters call for bills to be completely thrown out rather than suspended

 

Around 3,000 demonstrators marched against the government’s judicial overhaul plan in Tel Aviv on Tuesday, despite Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreeing to pause the legislative process the previous day.

 

The protest, significantly smaller than those witnessed in the city over the past 12 weeks, was held due to demonstrators’ fears that Netanyahu’s suspension of the legislative process was a ruse designed to stifle demonstrations before eventually resuming the legislative blitz in a few weeks’ time, protest organizers said.

 

They also said the protest was a response to Netanyahu’s agreement with National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir to advance plans for the formation of a “national guard” force under the far-right minister’s direct control.

Despite pause, government files contentious judicial selection bill for final votes

 

Coalition sources, Knesset secretary say move is ‘technical,’ but opposition MKs fume and say they’d be coming to overhaul negotiations with ‘a gun to the head’

 

Opposition lawmakers fumed Tuesday morning as it became apparent that despite Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s announcement Monday night that his government was pausing its judicial overhaul push in order to launch negotiations with the opposition, one of its most controversial bills had nevertheless been submitted to the Knesset for its final votes, which would enable it to be brought for approval at any later date.

 

The legislation would heavily politicize the Judicial Selection Committee and give the coalition almost complete control over the appointment of judges. The makeup of the committee — which currently divides power between politicians and justices regarding new Supreme Court appointments — is arguably the most contentious part of the overhaul, and the issue in which a compromise is the most elusive.

 

The bill — which would give the government exclusive say in the first two Supreme Court picks that become empty during its term, followed by a mutual veto in the uncommon situation of a third or fourth justice being selected in a single term — was approved Monday by the Constitution, Law and Justice Committee for its final readings in the Knesset plenum.

 

Filing it with the Knesset secretary enables the coalition to call the final votes with 24 hours’ notice. The Knesset begins a month-long recess this weekend.

 

The move was done just hours before Netanyahu called for a pause in legislative efforts but only announced Tuesday morning.

 

The Knesset secretary and coalition sources were quoted by the Ynet news site as saying the move was “technical” and did not indicate an intention to bring it for a vote soon, but several opposition lawmakers said the move constituted the coalition pointing “a gun to the head” of the opposition at the negotiation table.

 

“The public doesn’t even get a full day to digest the legislative halt, and the coalition is already submitting the draft for a vote,” said Labor MK Naama Lazimi. “What’s so urgent?”

 

Yesh Atid MK Orna Barbivai, a member of the opposition party’s negotiation team on the bill, said: “[Netanyahu] doesn’t have to file it. How can the draft be changed now?”

 

Yisrael Beytenu MK Yulia Malinovsky claimed that “everything Netanyahu did yesterday was aimed at quietening the streets, [but] it seems like there is no intention of changing the bill.”

 

Her party leader, Avigdor Liberman, said: “Netanyahu lied again, instead of going to genuine dialogue at the President’s Residence and healing the rift in the Israeli nation. The coalition is spitting in the public’s face. Absolutely a gun to the head.”

Ew, Disgusting: Oklahoma Teacher Sent Nude Photos To At Least 10 Students

 

 

Serena Cator, a former home economics teacher at McLoud High School in Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, has been arrested and charged with three counts of engaging in sexual communication with a minor using technology.

 

The 43-year-old has been released on $15,000 bail. The investigation into Cator began in November 2022 after a student told her mother that the teacher allegedly had sex with a student.

 

According to the affidavit, Cator sent nude photos to at least 10 male students ages 14 to 18 on Snapchat and asked them to reciprocate with explicit images. She also reportedly groomed the students similarly, messaging them through social media. In addition, Cator became friendly with the mothers of the students she was interested in, sending them pictures of their sons in class or at school events. Two of the students were even in a relationship with her daughter at one point.

UN Issues Rare Condemnation As Zelensky Moves To Evict More Monks, Seize Churches

 

The United Nation's human rights watchdog has voiced alarm over the Zelensky government's targeting of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) in a report published on Friday. The UOC, which still maintains communion with the Russian Orthodox Church, has seen its priests and monks expelled from some churches and monasteries of late, after the Ukrainian government has sought to bolster a rival nationalist church, also through controversial legislation.

 

The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said in the new report that it is "concerned that the State’s activities targeting the UOC could be discriminatory." The UN report pointed to "vague legal terminology and the absence of sufficient justification" in proposed anti-UOC legislation being pushed forward by the Zelensky administration.

 

In January monks of the ancient Kiev-Caves Lavra were ousted from a main cathedral church in favor of the nationalist state-backed "Ukrainian Orthodox Church" (UOC).

 

And now there's a standoff between Orthodox Christians and police over the future of fate of the 11th century Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. The monks say they'll stay at their monastery and home for "as long as physically possible". The monastery said "There is no legal foundation" state's expulsion order, and many thousands of supporters have stood side-by-side with the monks over days.

 

According to a description in the Associated Press:

 

The courtyards of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra have been busy with more than just the usual worshippers, going to and from its churches in the sprawling monastic complex that is Ukraine’s most revered Orthodox site.

 

Also busy Friday were people in civilian clothes, loading cars with plasma televisions, furniture and other items from the buildings — helping the resident monks remove belongings of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, or UOC, before a threatened government eviction on March 29.

 

There also were police officers checking the cars to make sure no one was removing items that belong to the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra preserve, which oversees the complex.

 

Recent footage has shown church services led by the monks with thousands of Ukrainian supporters present. Zelensky officials have accused the monks of being sympathetic to Moscow.

Liberal Wisconsin Supreme Court Nom Let Off Domestic Abuser. He Was Later Convicted of Attempted Murder.

 

Janet Protasiewicz sentenced a serial violent felon to just six months after he broke his wife's face

 

Liberal Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Janet Protasiewicz sentenced a serial violent felon to just six months in prison for breaking his estranged wife's face in a brutal beating. Less than one year later, the man gunned down the same victim outside her home, nearly killing her, according to court records reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.

 

The offender, Lazarick Spade, allegedly shot his ex-wife to "get even" with her for reporting the prior assault, according to court records.

 

The disturbing case could fuel concerns about Protasiewicz's sentencing record and professional judgment, after critics have accused her of handing down light sentences to domestic abusers and sexual predators during her time on the Milwaukee Circuit Court. The high-stakes April 4 race between Protasiewicz and her conservative opponent, former state Supreme Court justice Dan Kelly, will decide the ideological breakdown of the swing state's top court and could have national implications for the 2024 presidential elections.

 

It also raises questions about Protasiewicz's suggestion last week that she only has "one case where someone reoffended." In that incident, which Protasiewicz's opponents have highlighted in negative campaign attacks, she released a child sex offender without jail time who went on to kill a woman in a drunken car crash.

 

"That is the case where I indicated hindsight is 20/20," said Protasiewicz.

 

Protasiewicz did not respond to questions about whether she also regrets her decision in the Spade case.

 

A week before Christmas in 2015, Spade brutally beat his estranged wife after she told him she was ending the relationship and "moving on with her life." At the time of the assault, Spade had escaped from a prison work-release program, where he was supposed to serve a nine-month sentence for abusing the couple’s child.

 

Spade confronted his wife, who is referred to as T.S. in court records, outside a house in east Milwaukee, according to court records. He pushed her to the ground and then "dragged T.S. and punched and kicked her in the face," according to reports from multiple witnesses, who ran outside to pull Spade off of the victim. "As a result, T.S. sustained facial hematomas and a facial fracture," responding officers told the court.

 

Spade was initially charged with felony battery and faced up to 10 years in prison as a habitual offender, but the charges were reduced in a plea deal approved by Protasiewicz. She sentenced him to six months in prison.

 

Less than two years later, in June 2017, Spade ambushed and shot his ex-wife multiple times outside her home in Milwaukee, according to court records.

 

T.S. "arrived home around 10:55 p.m. and was walking toward her house when [Spade] came toward her and started shooting at her," say the court records. She "ran toward the house as [Spade] continued shooting."

 

The victim "sustained three through and through gunshot wounds," the records state. "One shot went through her left foot. One shot went through her upper right arm. One shot went through her by the shoulder blade and caused damage to one of her lungs."

 

In total, Spade fired 19 rounds at T.S., according to investigators.

 

T.S., who was hospitalized but survived the attack, told police that earlier that day she had run into Spade at the courthouse while taking out papers to file a restraining order against him. He allegedly told her he would "get even with her for sending him to jail" in the assault case.

 

Spade was convicted by a jury of attempted first-degree intentional homicide in 2019. He is serving 40 years in prison.

Watch: Ukrainian Soldiers Seen With Depleted Uranium Ammo In UK

 

Ukrainian soldiers have been filmed alongside depleted uranium ammunition that Britain is supplying to their country for the fight against Russia.

 

The footage is contained in a documentary the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) released Sunday as Ukrainian tank crews completed their training.

 

Britain is gifting 14 Challenger 2 tanks to Ukraine together with depleted uranium shells, which Declassified revealed last week.

 

An MoD spokesperson told the media that the "impact to personal health and the environment from the use of depleted uranium munitions is likely to be low".

 

But the decision to supply the ammunition sparked a furious reaction from the Kremlin, with Vladimir Putin pledging on Saturday to retaliate by moving 'tactical' nuclear weapons into Belarus.

Nashville Police Chief: Christian School Shooter Being Treated for ‘Emotional Disorder’

 

Police in Nashville on Tuesday said that the suspect involved in the Christian private school shooting that left six people, including three children, dead was being treated for an “emotional disorder.”

 

Speaking at a news conference, Nashville Police Chief John Drake said 28-year-old Audrey Elizabeth Hale, who police officials earlier said was biologically female and used male pronouns, “was under doctors care for an emotional disorder … law enforcement knew nothing about the treatment she was receiving,” the chief said. Drake did not elaborate on the disorder, or the care or if she was receiving any medication.

 

When asked about whether she posed a danger to others beforehand and how she came into possession of firearms, Drake said, “As it stands we had no idea who this person was or if she existed.”

International Criminal Court to Open Ukraine Office Following Putin Arrest Warrant

 

The International Criminal Court (ICC) announced on Thursday that it will open an office in Ukraine, less than a week after issuing an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin over war crimes allegations.

 

“I firmly believe that the opening of the ICC country office in Ukraine marks the beginning of a new chapter in our close cooperation with the Court,” Ukrainian Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin, who signed the agreement on behalf of his country, said in a statement.

 

“This is just a start, a strong start, and I’m convinced that we will not stop until all perpetrators of international crimes committed in Ukraine are brought to justice, independently of their political or military position,” Kostin added.

 

The announcement comes after the court issued an arrest warrant last Friday for Putin and Maria Alekseyevna Lvova-Belova, the commissioner for children’s rights in the Office of the President of the Russian Federation, over the alleged deportation of children from Ukraine to Russia.

Robert Kraft launches $25 million campaign to ‘Stand Up To Jewish Hate’ as anti-Semitic reported incidents spike to record high

 

Patriots owner Robert Kraft has launched a $25 million national campaign to fight anti-Semitism as anti-Semitic reported incidents surge to record highs across the region and country.

 

Kraft’s Foundation to Combat Antisemitism announced its new initiative for all Americans — and especially non-Jews — to #StandUpToJewishHate by using the blue square emoji on social media as a unifying symbol of support.

 

The foundation noted that Jews only make up 2.4% of the American population, but they’re the victims of 55% of religious-based hate crimes. That disturbing discrepancy is the cornerstone of this new campaign — in which the blue square emoji will take up 2.4% of TV and digital screens, billboards and social feeds to call attention to the disparity.

 

Kraft, who on Monday was wearing a blue square pin to commemorate his campaign, offered a few remarks at the annual league meetings in Phoenix.

 

“I love this country,” Kraft said. “I see hate building and developing in a lot of areas. I think it’s something we have to stop.”

 

He said he spoke to several ad agencies, one that came up with the blue square plan, as a “symbol of solidarity and getting us all together to push back against all kinds of hate, focusing on anti-Semitism.”

 

Tom Brady on Monday tweeted out support for #StandUpToJewishHate.

 

The launch of this new campaign comes less than a week after the Anti-Defamation League reported that anti-Semitic incidents spiked across Massachusetts last year, as the total number of incidents against the Jewish community hit record highs in New England and around the U.S.

Knesset Bans Bread in Hospitals Over Passover, Enshrining Jewish Religious Edict Into Law

 

The legislation is the brainchild of finance committee chairman MK Moshe Gafni, whose ultra-Orthodox United Torah Judaism party has moved to reverse many of the reforms to Israel's religious status quo championed by the previous government

 

Israel's Knesset voted on Monday to pass the so-called 'Chametz Law,' banning all leavened bread products that are not kosher for Passover in hospitals, according to Orthodox Jewish law.

 

The bill passed into law with 48 lawmakers voting in favor and 43 against.

 

Earlier versions of the controversial bill allowed for hospital security staff to inspect visitors and search for non-kosher products. The final version of the law does not permit direct searches but authorizes the hospital management to "use their own judgment in how to notify visitors and staff" about the requirements.

 

Opposition leader Yair Lapid, who heads the secular Yesh Atid party, told the Knesset plenum that "16-year-old kids will now think it's funny to throw bread rolls in hospitals, and families will stop observing Passover … Less people will observe [the laws] of chametz because you cannot force Judaism on us."

 

Gilad Kariv, a reform rabbi who serves as an MK for Labor, said that the law "is the first harbinger of an unprecedented wave of religious legislation. Like all laws that violate freedom of religion and conscience, this law will not increase respect for Jewish tradition."

 

In April 2021, a three-justice High Court panel ruled that hospitals do not have the authority to ban bringing chametz into hospitals on Passover, to search the food that visitors might be carrying in with them or to comment on the foods’ compliance with Jewish religious dietary requirements.

Nashville Tragedy Shows Why It Isn’t Compassionate To Fuel Mental Illness

 

It’s difficult to fathom that several families started their day with one less precious child around the breakfast table this morning. It’s also hard to fathom responding to that reality — caused by a transgender mass shooter who left three 9-year-olds and several adults dead in a “targeted attack” at a Christian elementary school — by confessing you misgendered the murderer and blasting your political opponents over the same tired gun-control talking points.

 

But behind all the partisan smoke and mirrors of the Nashville story is an unmistakable and unavoidable reality: Our modern mental health crisis is out of control.

 

You don’t even have to dig into the glaring transgender element of the case to acknowledge this fact. No mentally healthy person blasts their way into a building of defenseless children to murder them in cold blood, much less devises a detailed plan literally mapping out how to make it happen. Transgender perpetrator or not, this sick pattern has repeated itself with unsettling frequency.

 

And though President Joe Biden, his press secretary, and other politicians disgustingly spun the attack to blame so-called “assault weapons” and imply conservatives are complicit in mass murder, the simple reality is that over the past handful of decades, firearms have changed very little. Meanwhile, mental illness has proliferated and our culture’s conception of it dangerously evolved.

 

That’s why the transgender identity of the shooter can’t be fully ignored — not for those who truly care to understand the gnarly roots of this violence. Despite the protestations of LGBT apologists, gender dysphoria and trans-related narcissism are inextricable from America’s broader mental health emergency.

A Celebration of Sickness

 

The psychological pendulum has swung woefully far: Illness that was once stigmatized, often to the unhelpful point of suppressing it instead of encouraging the sufferers to seek help, is now celebrated and socially encouraged. If it isn’t teachers brainwashing impressionable kids with sexual confusion and instructing them to keep it secret from their parents, it’s parents catechizing their own children in fallacies. Spend just a few minutes on TikTok, and you’ll get a glimpse of the affected masses — self-loathing, split personalities, nonsensical pronouns and sexual identities, desperate androgyny, narcissism, bipolar outbursts, and more.

 

Examples of encouraged mental illness abound — even medical doctors fuel delusion by pretending sex is “assigned” and asking for patients’ preferred pronouns — but here’s one directly in response to the shooting. A group called the Trans Resistance Network made the shooter out to be a victim, blaming the “avalanche” of legislation seeking to protect minors from chemical and surgical castration and accusing conservatives of “nothing less than the genocidal eradication of trans people from society.” Many trans-identifying people suffer from “anxiety, depression, [and] thoughts of suicide,” the group correctly noted, but then associated these struggles not with broader mental unhealth but with “lack of acceptance” of gender dysphoria from “religious institutions.”

 

Note the group’s promotion of mental instability:

 

It is a testament to the inner strength and beauty of transgender people, that despite the … constant anti-trans bigotry and violence, so many of us continue to persevere, survive, and even thrive. We will not be eradicated or erased.

 

The same can’t be said for the innocent lives that were snuffed out in an instant in the Nashville shooting. Where derangement is considered “inner strength and beauty,” mental sickness thrives, and now children, not angry activists, are the ones who have been erased.

Obama-Appointed Judge Orders Mike Pence to Testify Before Grand Jury in Case Against President Trump

 

Another day, another leak.

 

Chief Judge James Boasberg, an Obama appointee ordered former Vice President Mike Pence to testify before a grand jury about his conversations with President Trump related to January 6.

 

This is an unprecedented attack on Trump’s authority and executive privilege which is derived from the constitutional separation of powers.

 

Special Counsel Jack Smith subpoenaed Mike Pence in February.

 

Pence argued that as president of the Senate, he was acting as a member of the legislative branch on January 6 and is therefore protected by the DOJ’s demands.

 

Judge Boasberg ruled that Pence can decline to answer any questions about his time presiding over the senate.

 

However, Boasberg ordered Pence to testify to the grand jury about his conversations with President Trump, according to a leak to CNN.

 

Pence has previously stated he will appeal this ruling.

 

CNN reported:

 

A federal judge has decided that former Vice President Mike Pence must testify to a grand jury about conversations he had with Donald Trump leading up to January 6, 2021, according to multiple sources familiar with a recent federal court ruling.

 

But the judge said – in a ruling that remains under seal – that Pence can still decline to answer questions related to his actions on January 6 itself, when he was serving as president of the Senate for the certification of the 2020 presidential election, according to one of the sources.

 

The ruling from chief judge James Boasberg of the US District Court in Washington, DC, is a major win for special counsel Jack Smith, who is spearheading the Justice Department investigation. Pence still has the ability to appeal.

 

In the lead-up to the congressional certification vote, Pence faced enormous pressure from Trump and his allies to disrupt lawmakers’ plans to validate Joe Biden’s win. As president of the Senate, Pence was tasked with presiding over the certification proceedings.

 

To be clear, Obama-appointed Judge Beryl Howell flipped Trump’s own lawyer Eric Corcoran into a witness when she obliterated Trump’s attorney client privilege in a recent ruling.

 

Judge Howell ruled DOJ prosecutors ‘met the threshold for the crime-fraud exception’ for Trump’s attorney.

 

And now another Obama judge is ordering Pence to testify in a case against President Trump.
