    The accused Highland Park Fourth of July gunman painted a chilling mural of a smiley-face figure brandishing a rifle on the wall of his mom’s home, The Post learned Wednesday. The revelation of the creepy image emerged as Robert E. “Bobby” Crimo’s mom, Denise, was spotted looking downcast outside her Highland Park home Wednesday afternoon — just days after her son’s alleged Independence Day slaughter. The eerie mural, painted on the outside back wall of the house, shows the character with a yellow happy face for a head clutching what appears to be a high-powered rifle. It wasn’t immediately clear...

    A GOP congressional candidate from Arizona released a campaign ad vowing to support the Second Amendment in order to defend against “Democrats in Klan hoods” with an AR-15. Former NFL running back Jerone Davison — who is vying to represent Arizona’s 4th Congressional District — released the ad with a tweet that said “Make Rifles Great Again” on Wednesday. “Democrats like to say that no one needs an AR-15 for self-defense,” Davison is heard saying in the thirty-second video. “That no one could possibly need all 30 rounds. “But when this rifle is the only thing standing between your family...

    Russian law enforcement detained three top Russian generals, including an aide to the head of the country's interior ministry, on charges of abuse of power, officials said Wednesday. Lieutenant-General Sergei Umnov, the assistant to the head of Russia's Ministry of Internal Affairs, was detained alongside Major General Alexei Semyonov, head of St. Petersburg's traffic police, and Major General Ivan Abakumov, as the country's invasion of Ukraine rages on. Between 2016 and 2020, the three top Russian generals allegedly misappropriated funds from the Program Assistance Fund for the St. Petersburg and Leningrad region's Main Department of Internal Affairs, and purchased property...

    The triggered liberals at The New York Times are having a cow over fears that Washington, D.C., won’t be able to install a censorship apparatus to root out so-called “disinformation.” The Times published a whiny story headlined: “Disinformation Has Become Another Untouchable Problem in Washington.” The piece, plastered with a photo of a stone-faced former Disinformation Governance Board (DGB) Director Nina Jankowicz, whined that Biden’s Ministry of Truth “was dismantled — put on ‘pause,’ officially — undone in part by forces it was meant to combat, including distortions of the board’s intent and powers.” The Times has tried for weeks...

    TUCKER CARLSON: They're numbed by the endless psychotropic drugs that are handed out in every school in the country by crackpots posing as counselors and of course, they're angry. They know that their lives will not be better than their parents. They'll be worse. That's all but guaranteed. They know that. They're not that stupid and yet, the authorities in their lives, mostly women, never stops lecturing them about their so-called privilege. You're male. You're privileged. Imagine that. Try to imagine an unhealthier, unhappier life than that. So, a lot of young men in America are going nuts. Are you...

    [Catholic Caucus] Official: Vatican Justifies (Artificial) ContraceptionIf "practical circumstances" make “the choice to generate irresponsible”, one may resort to contraceptive techniques, Prelate Gilfredo Marengo writes in Theological Ethics of Life, a book collecting talks giving at a conference organised by the Pontifical Academy "for Life" and published July 1 by the Libreria Editrice Vaticana, the Vatican's official publishing house.Lima's Pachamama-Archbishop Carlos Castillo writes in his contribution that “it is not healthy for mankind to always have 'swords of Damocles,' threatening damnation, whenever norms are neglected” referring to artificial methods of contraception, not to the Roman Rite which Francis tries to...

    The heads of UK and US security services have made an unprecedented joint appearance to warn of the threat from China. FBI director Christopher Wray said China was the "biggest long-term threat to our economic and national security" and had interfered in politics, including recent elections. MI5 head Ken McCallum said his service had more than doubled its work against Chinese activity in the last three years and would be doubling it again. MI5 is now running seven times as many investigations related to activities of the Chinese Communist Party compared to 2018, he added. He also said China deployed...

    A plan to mandate COVID-19 vaccine shots for hundreds of thousands of students in the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) will remain on pause after a Los Angeles County judge ruled on July 5 that the district lacks the authority to do so. In his ruling, Judge Mitchell Beckloff of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County sided with a parent, whose 12-year-old son attends a public magnet school in North Hollywood. The parent filed the complaint in October 2021, about a month after the LAUSD announced its vaccination mandate. Under the district’s mandate, all eligible students aged 12...

    White House communications director Kate Bedingfield is stepping down from the Biden administration, it was announced Wednesday. The senior aide is leaving at the end of July to 'spend more time with her husband and young children,' the White House said. Bedingfield's departure is the latest in a series of high-profile staffers who resigned their roles in recent months. It comes at a critical time for President Joe Biden and the Democrats as November's midterm elections loom. Multiple polls have suggested Republicans are set to win the majority of seats in the House of Representatives, and mounting reports indicate that...

    Another woke Hollywood lefty is on the loose with more terrible takes on abortion. So get your lightsaber, because Star Wars actor Mark Hamill just gave one that’ll make you wish you were getting force-choked. Hamill took to Twitter to portray couples willing to adopt babies to the mentally deranged DC supervillains Joker and Harley Quinn. Following a common theme on left-wing Twitter, Hamill demonized couples willing to adopt babies from unplanned pregnancies as malicious, discrediting the 36 couples that wait for every one baby that is adopted. Instead of allowing the baby to grow up in a household, Hamill...

    The Highland Park gunman who killed seven people at a July 4 parade previously posted gaming videos online where he shot at people from rooftops. The eerie videos show 21-year-old Robert Crimo's gaming avatar standing on rooftops and shooting down his opponents in a game of Call of Duty. This came before Crimo himself stood on a rooftop disguised in women's clothing and opened fire 'sniper-style' at the crowd during the Independence Day parade in Highland Park, Illinois. Crimo killed seven people with his Smith & Wesson rifle and has been charged with seven counts of first-degree murder with dozens...

    An Aug. 16 GOP primary for incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, was already going to prove difficult for her reelection hopes, but voting for gun control measures in the Senate has exposed her campaign. Before voting to expand background checks, Murkowski's campaign was fundraising on a platform to protect the Second Amendment for Alaska voters in Facebook messages, Breitbart reported. "Lisa needs your help," one Spring ad on Facebook read. "Democrats want to take away your right to bear arms. Can you join her and stand up to the radical left to protect our Second Amendment rights?" Another ad, bearing...

    At just 31 years old, Abe Hamadeh is the youngest GOP candidate for Arizona attorney general, but he says he sometimes feels like the most mature one on the debate stage based on how he views the other contenders squabbling amongst themselves. In a packed field, Hamadeh's recent endorsement from former President Donald Trump might give him an edge in the Aug. 2 primary. A former Maricopa County prosecutor, Hamadeh, an Army captain and intelligence officer, returned last year after a Middle East deployment. Start the day smarter.

  • New imaging technology less accurate than MRI at detecting prostate cancer, trial shows

    07/06/2022 2:07:50 PM PDT · by ConservativeMind · 20 replies
    A team of researchers in Australia and New Zealand has found that MRI scans can detect prostate cancer more accurately than the newer, prostate-specific -PSMA PET/CT scanning technique. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT scans use a radioactive dye to 'light up' areas of PSMA, which is found on the surface of prostate cancer cells. They are presently used to manage prostate cancer, as they can accurately measure the progression or recurrence of the disease. So, in this trial the researchers set out to find if they could be used to diagnose prostate cancer as well. The PEDAL trial recruited 240...
