'John of God' faith healer 'kept teenagers as sex slaves and sold their babies for up to ÂŁ40,000 before shipping them from Brazil to Europe'

 

Faith healer known as John of God is accused of abusing more than 600 women

He was arrested last month in Brazil with bags full of gems from his mines

Joao Teixeira de Faria, 77, allegedly used women as slaves at his rural mines

He would allegedly impregnate girls, sell their babies and murder them after

 

The elderly medium, who has been interviewed by Oprah and has treated Bill Clinton, was pursued after skipping a deadline to hand himself in.

Faria rose to international fame for his 'psychic surgeries' that he claimed could cure diseases, including cancer.

He gained international exposure in 2010 when Oprah Winfrey visited his retreat to interview him for her talk show and described an experience with him as 'blissful.'

In a since-deleted column on oprah.com, Winfrey wrote that she was overwhelmed by the experience of seeing him cut into the breast of a woman without anesthesia and that she left feeling 'an overwhelming sense of peace.'

She has since stated that she hopes justice will be served.

Heart-stopping moment ATF raid home of Bill and Hilary Clinton Airport boss who later died from shootout as his family say SWAT team never identified themselves when they bust open his door

New video from an ATF raid on the director of Bill and Hillary Clinton Airport in Arkansas has raised questions about the use of force by federal agents after he was killed in a shootout.

Bryan Malinowski, 53, died in the hospital at noon on Thursday, two days after the confrontation with ATF agents at his home in west Little Rock.

The search warrant revealed Malinowski was suspected of trading more than 150 firearms between May 2021 and February of this year.

Bud Cummins, an attorney for Malinowski's estate, released multiple clips from the Chenal Valley neighborhood the night of the raid, which the attorney claims took place while his client and wife Maer were sleeping and adds that it's not clear agents properly identified themselves.

One of the clips, taken from the doorbell camera of a neighbor, shows that the ATF arrived in at least 10 vehicles to Malinowski's house that evening, which has led some to question if the feds overdid it.

Both videos show the ATF agents cocking their rifles while dressed in full tactical equipment outside Malinowski's home.

While police have said that Malinowski fired at the agents when they served him with a warrant, Cummins claims no such warning was given.

'At this stage there is no publicly available evidence showing whether agents knocked on the door or announced their presence, adequately identifying themselves,' he told KATV in a statement.

He adds that Maer Malinowski 'only heard loud banging immediately followed by the crash of the front door being forced open.'

Cummins cites evidence that Malinowski shot at the agents at their feet, while they returned fire, shooting him in the head.

He also says that it's not clear who shot first.

'We do not know who shot first but it appears that Bryan shot approximately three times at a decidedly low angle, probably at the feet of the intruders who were roughly 30 feet away,' Cummins claimed.

While agents had indeed obtained a warrant to search the director's property and vehicles, Cummins believes their methods were suspect.

'The Malinowski family believes the already known facts amply demonstrate ATF's tactics on March 19 were reckless and incompetent, and completely unnecessary,' he added.

The ATF has requested an investigation into the incident by the Arkansas State Police Criminal Investigation Division.

The affidavit pointed out that six of the over 150 firearms Malinowski traded were later used in crimes, and one of which ended up with a 15-year-old gang member in California.

Cummins' statement follows up one released by Malinowski's family after his death in which they questioned the feds' approach.

'Even if the allegations in the affidavit are true, they don't begin to justify what happened,' his family said in the statement this evening.

'At worst, Bryan Malinowski, a gun owner and gun enthusiast, stood accused of making private firearm sales to a person who may not have been legally entitled to purchase the guns.'

The investigation began in November 2023 when authorities in Canada were tipped off by an informer about guns coming unlawfully into circulation.

Malinowski would allegedly buy the guns legally online, declaring they were for personal use, and acknowledging that the 'repetitive purchase of firearms' for onward sale is illegal without a license.

But he was seen selling them at gun shows without asking for any ID or paperwork, telling one undercover agent that none was needed for private sales.

The ATF said that someone inside Malinowski's home opened fire when they arrived on Tuesday and that in the ensuing shootout, Malinowski reportedly sustained a gunshot wound to the head.

Speaking to Fox News last week, his brother Matthew Malinowski said that doctors did not expect him to survive.

'It's all speculation at this point. I got a feeling that he bought something he shouldn't have. That's the only thing I can think of,' he added.

Matthew also told NBC that agents 'broke down his door' leaving his brother no choice but to 'defend himself'.

He added: 'There's something fishy here. The ATF went after him in the worst possible way.

'There's no reason why they couldn't have arrested him at work at the airport. Something stinks to high hell.'

Matthew said it seemed odd that his brother could be entangled with the law, noting that he was well connected, earned more than $250,000 a year, lived in a nice suburb and had collections of guns and coins.

An ATF agent, whose identity was not released, also was shot in the exchange of gunfire but suffered a non-life-threatening wound, officials said. The agent, too, was taken to an area hospital for treatment.

Around 2:35 pm on Tuesday, Little Rock firefighters carrying a power saw and a Halligan tool - a large prybar - were seen walking toward the house.

Shea De Bruyn, a neighbor, told KARK that she was woken up on Tuesday by loud bangs.

De Bruyn told the outlet: 'My heart was racing, and the dogs were barking. I'm just really curious as to what was going on just a few houses down.'

An ATF agent was overheard saying they were at the scene to help agents open a safe in Malinowski´s house, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported.

Malinowski joined Clinton National in 2008 as director of properties, planning and development before being promoted to deputy director in 2009. He took over as executive director in 2019.

Bill Walker, chair of the Little Rock Municipal Airport Commission, noted that under Malinowski's leadership the airport saw 'significant growth and success' and offered condolences to Malinowski´s family.

'Bryan was a 16-year employee of the airport,' Walker said in the statement announcing his death. 'Under his leadership, our airport has experienced significant growth and success, expanding services and offerings to our community and state. We extend our heartfelt condolences to Bryan´s wife, Maer, loved ones and friends.'

>Barack Obama and Bill Clinton to raise $25 million with Biden amid concerns about his age

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/28/us/politics/biden-obama-clinton-fundraiser.html

Biden, Fighting for Credit and Raising Cash, Gets Help From Clinton and Obama

A fund-raiser on Thursday intends to raise $25 million to help re-elect the president, who has amassed a roster of achievements, but whose approval ratings are the lowest of the three.

President Biden will lock arms with two of his Democratic predecessors at a campaign fund-raising event on Thursday evening in New York City, a public display of support from the two men who understand like few others what he faces.

Yet in one key way he will be standing alone.

Of the triumvirate of recent Democrats in the White House, Mr. Biden is the one who historians, political strategists and policy experts argue has racked up the most expansive list of legislative accomplishments — and has received the least amount of credit for them.

In a first term with a closely divided Congress, Mr. Biden signed legislation to provide $1.9 trillion in pandemic stimulus, $1 trillion in infrastructure spending and $370 billion to fight climate change, as well as the first gun control measures in 28 years. It is a roster of achievement that surpasses Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, the two Democratic former presidents who will join him on Thursday in New York. And yet Mr. Biden’s approval ratings are the lowest of all three men. While voters broadly support some of Mr. Biden’s key policies, they are far more pessimistic about the future. And they’re not confident in his ability to serve a second term.

“His biggest problem is not so much his ability to get things done, as we’ve seen, but his ability to put together a message that reaches the average American, no matter where they’re located, whether it’s a red state or a blue state, and to be able to get them to understand just exactly what he’s trying to do for the country,” Leon Panetta, who served as Mr. Clinton’s chief of staff and also in Mr. Obama’s cabinet, said of Mr. Biden.

That central political paradox reflects the unique circumstances of the Biden era.

Mr. Biden is running in a tumultuous political climate unlike any the country has experienced before in modern times, seeking re-election in the first presidential contest since the pandemic was a major threat, the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and the Supreme Court’s ruling overturning a half-century-old constitutional right to an abortion.

Mr. Biden’s predicament also highlights just how deeply Americans have lost faith in politics and government since Mr. Clinton and Mr. Obama were in office.
