Following my post today, a neurosurgeon and Unreported Truths reader (yes, some of you are actually brain surgeons) wrote in. For obvious reasons, he did not want his name used, but his email and answers to my follow-up question speak for itself. I’d urge you to read to the end, for the prediction he makes. I simply wanted to give you a thumbs up on your diagnosis of POTUS. He undoubtedly has Parkinson’s disease, and is increasingly suffering from Parkinson’s dementia. The signs are unmistakable: -his shuffling gait -the absence of associated movements (facial expression, arm swinging). When he does...

Kamala Harris’s team is concerned that Democrats will install a white candidate ahead of her to replace Joe Biden, arguing that it would be “offensive” to black voters to overlook her should the president stand aside. Mr Biden is facing calls to step back from the race over concerns about his age, after a disastrous television debate performance against Donald Trump on Thursday. The Biden campaign, which is a joint ticket between the US president and Ms Harris, has dismissed calls for him to step aside for a younger candidate. However, allies of Ms Harris are frustrated that she has...

Former President Donald J. Trump over the weekend escalated his vows to prosecute his political opponents, circulating posts on his social media website invoking “televised military tribunals” and calling for the jailing of President Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Senators Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer and former Vice President Mike Pence, among other high-profile politicians. Mr. Trump, using his account on Truth Social on Sunday, promoted two posts from other users of the site that called for the jailing of his perceived political enemies. One post that he circulated on Sunday singled out Liz Cheney, the former Wyoming congresswoman who...

Watching movies from the 1940s is like being transported into a different world. Men wear suits, and women wear beautiful skirts or dresses. No obscenity or vulgarity corrupts the scene. Male characters are manly, while female characters are feminine — both for good and for ill. Few people of loose morals earn the glitzy lights. Traditional family life, with male providers and ladies minding the home, is normative. Think “It’s a Wonderful Life.”Then everything changed.Joy Pullmann, executive editor of these pages, meticulously catalogues episodes of this revolution in her new book, False Flag: Why Queer Politics Mean the End of...

Last night’s debate made clear what DSA and the hundreds of thousands of voters who supported Uncommitted in the primaries have been saying for months: Biden must drop out. Biden was elected in 2020 because young people, people of color, and the working class rejected Donald Trump’s far-right politics. It was these voters who prevented a second Trump term with the highest turnout in an election in decades. Yesterday, these same voters witnessed a man who is unfit to lead. During the debate, both candidates repeatedly fought to appear the most pro-cop, pro-war, and anti-immigration, and ignored questions on issues...

When Fatima Payman crossed the Senate floor to vote against her government she knew it would come with consequences. The Australian Labor party has strict penalties for those who undermine its collective positions, and acts of defiance can lead to expulsion - a precedent with a 130-year history. The last time one of its politicians tested the waters while in power was before Ms Payman was born. But last Tuesday, the 29-year-old did just that - joining the Green party and independent senators to support a motion on Palestinian statehood. Officially the Australian government supports a two-state solution, but did...

A Mexican national, Erasmo Zuniga-Angel, 30, has been handed a 24-month sentence in federal prison after illegal re-entry into the U.S. Zuniga-Angel, originally from Buena Vista, Hidalgo, Mexico, was caught with a group of five others on May 4, 2023, after they crossed the Rio Grande, as reported by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of Texas. Court documents reveal, Zuniga-Angel's prior deportation took place on Nov. 18, 2022, following a conviction for illegal re-entry and sexual misconduct involving a child in Missouri. The U.S. Border Patrol agents who encountered Zuniga-Angel's group, learned of his criminal history during...

From the Northern Sentinel, June 18, 1819: Extract of a letter, dated Danbury, (Ohio) May 6, 1819, addressed to a gentleman in Albany. I thought it would be prudent to inform you of some unhappy circumstances which have recently occurred in our neighborhood, in order to save you from any groundless alarm, which common report might create about us. Last Sunday, a week, (April 25,) we received the intelligence, that two of our neighbors, George Bishop and John Wood, had been found a little above the forks of Portage river, cruelly butchered by the Indians. We immediately armed ourselves, and...

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fl) has pivoted from her initial hardline stance against US Attorney General Merrick Garland. The House had previously voted 216 to 207 to hold Garland in contempt for failing to hand over the Robert Hur audio tape of his interview with President Joe Biden. The lone Republican siding with Democrats was Rep. David Joyce from Ohio. After promising to direct the House sergeant-at-arms to take Garland into custody, Luna has now proposed a daily fine of $10,000 until Garland complies with their subpoena. A source familiar with the situation revealed that she agreed to postpone the...

House Republicans filed a lawsuit on July 1 against Attorney General Merrick Garland, seeking to force the Department of Justice (DOJ) to release the audiotapes of special counsel Robert Hur’s interview with President Joe Biden in his classified documents probe.The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, also asks the court to require the DOJ to hand over the audio of Mr. Hur’s interview with President Biden’s ghostwriter, Mark Zwonitzer, who wrote two memoirs for him.The legal action came after the House Republicans last month voted to hold Mr. Garland in contempt for failing to...

We’ve seen some of the deranged reactions from the left over the Supreme Court’s ruling Monday that a president enjoys immunity for official acts. AOC is threatening to impeach justices, CNN’s Jake Tapper frets that the decision gives the commander-in-chief the authority to assassinate his rivals—a worry parroted by an MSNBC legal analyst—while unhinged commenters on social media advised the president to drone strike Trump.All in all, a very impressive showing of hysteria by “Democracy-loving” progressives.Democrats Rip the Mask off, Call for Violence After Thinking the SCOTUS Decisions Gave Them 'King Biden'Jake Tapper Fixates on the Idea That SCOTUS Immunity...

President Biden’s campaign is intensely trying to quell speculation that he may drop out of the 2024 race following his lackluster debate performance last week. Most top Democrats have voiced support for Biden continuing in the race, while members of his family, including first lady Jill Biden, have declared they also want him to remain a candidate, casting doubt on the potential for replacing Biden. But if Biden were to step aside, several prominent Democrats could be waiting in the wings as possible successors. Here are the top possible Biden replacements: Kamala Harris Gavin Newsom Gretchen Whitmer Pete Buttigieg Josh...

Carl Bernstein on CNN after talking with aides close to Biden; “What we saw, is NOT a one-off.

Bannon surrendered at a Connecticut federal prison to begin serving his time on contempt charges for defying a congressional subpoena. The New York Times headline seemed to gloat: “Stephen Bannon Reports to Prison After One Final Podcast Episode.” “The show will be his last for four months, but the longtime adviser to Donald J. Trump has no intention of surrendering his influence,” the newspaper of record for the Democratic Party and the American left declared in its online subhead on Monday. And so the corporate media stories went, reporting on Bannon’s failed attempt to secure an 11th-hour reprieve from the...

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas questioned, in a concurring opinion affirming presidents have “at least presumptive immunity” for official acts, whether Special Counsel Jack Smith’s office and appointment are constitutional in the first place.In a 6-3 decision on Monday, the Supreme Court ruled presidents have “absolute immunity” for “actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority” and “at least presumptive immunity” for all “official acts.”The decision came after Smith, who was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland, indicted former President Donald Trump for questioning the administration of the 2020 election. The Supreme Court also sent several of the alleged actions...
