    In this version of the video of bystanders confronting the walmart stabbing perpretator (which doesn't have sound censored), if you listen closely about 22 seconds in, the soft spoken voice says put your head(?) on the ground. You hear another voice say okay, I'm muslim, then the soft spoken voice says lay on the ground... Aparrently, it is frowned upon by allah, for muslims to lay on their stomach, thus the comment why gilles doesn't want to lay down on the ground, supporting the comment he is muslim.
  • Trump Drops BOMB On AF1 — Says Epstein ‘Stole’ Abuse Survivor Giuffre From His Mar-a-Lago Club

    President Donald Trump dropped a bomb on Air Force One, telling reporters that Jeffrey Epstein “stole” an employee from the spa at Mar-a-Lago — saying he “thinks” Epstein survivor Virginia Giuffre was one of the people he hired away. After three weeks of the Trump administration trying to bury the promised mountain of information on deceased sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein, the heat just keeps going up. At every turn, Trump’s efforts to quash the story have only intensified interest in it, and deepened Trump’s own association with it. As the president made his way to Turnberry, Scotland and his “Trump...

    The FBI and other government agencies have a copy of the video from outside Jeffrey Epstein’s cell on the night he died, which includes the so-called “missing minute” from the version of the tape that was released publicly. According to a report from CBS News, the FBI, the Bureau of Prisons and the Department of Justice inspector general have a copy of the video containing the minute from 11:59 p.m.-12:00 a.m. that was not included in the public release. Government officials have cited the video as crucial evidence that Epstein died by suicide, but critics have raised many questions about...

    An anti-Trump judge who has stymied the president’s agenda with nationwide injunctions is now seeing the tables turned thanks to a newly filed complaint by the U.S. Justice Department. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, in the complaint, accuses District Judge James Boasberg of displaying “improper” conduct when he accused President Donald Trump of stoking a “constitutional crisis” by levying personal attacks on judges who imposed nationwide injunctions halting parts of his agenda. Boasberg has been at the center of pausing mass deportation flights. In response, Trump has referred to Boasberg as a “Radical Left Lunatic Judge” and “troublemaker” in various...
  • There was no "missing minute" in Epstein jail video, government source says

    CBS News ^ | July 29, 2025 | Dan Ruetenik
    The "missing minute" from the surveillance video at the Manhattan Metropolitan Correctional Center where Jeffrey Epstein died in 2019 may not be missing after all, CBS News has learned. When the Justice Department and FBI released nearly 11 hours of footage earlier this month, the time code on the screen jumped forward one minute just before midnight, prompting questions about the one-minute gap. The video shows part of the area near the cell where Epstein was being held the night he died in what the medical examiner ruled a suicide. A government source familiar with the investigation says the FBI,...
  • Americans’ support for Israel in Gaza plummets to record low, new Gallup poll finds

    Jewish Telegraph Agency ^ | July 29, 2025 | Phillissa Cramer
    Just a third of Americans say they now support Israel’s actions in Gaza, and almost all of them are Republicans, a new poll finds. The poll by Gallup is the latest in a series by the polling firm about U.S. attitudes about the war. Early on, in November 2023, it found that half of Americans approved of the actions Israel was taking in Gaza, and fewer disapproved. (Some said they did not know.) By last June, more Americans disapproved than approved, Gallup found, but there was still 42% approval. Now, after more than a year later, the proportion of Americans...

    When I finished and published my first novel, it became apparent to me that an Author’s Website was important. I set about creating mine. What are the benefits of an Author’s Website? It shows professionalism and dedication to prospective agents, publishers, event coordinators, journalists, and your readers. An agent or a publisher is far more likely to become interested in your novel if you demonstrate that you are dedicated to your craft. A website will confirm your dedication. You have full control over your brand and the presentation of your work. Even if social media or retail outlets remove or...

    A Silicon Valley startup claims it can turn mercury into gold. San Francisco, California-based Marathon Fusion is proposing a process that uses nuclear fusion to turn mercury into gold — something that has been sought by people for thousands of years. "Unlike previous attempts, our method is massively scalable, pragmatically achievable, and economically irresistible," Marathon Fusion said on its website. "Using our approach, power plants can generate five thousand kilograms of gold per year, per gigawatt of electricity generation (~2.5 GWth), without any compromise to fuel self-sufficiency or power output." In a Cornell University scientific paper submitted July 17, Marathon...

    Enquiring minds want to know: What the heck is up with Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein? Whether it’s a slow news month or just proof that the news business has a sweet tooth for the salacious, all media outlets – both old and new – have been working overtime to explain the bizarre machinations of Team Trump to either expose or cover up (take your pick) the truth about Epstein’s predilection for pedophilia. SNIP I posit that we can build a logical explanation for why Trump is protesting so hard that the Epstein story is a hoax or a waste...

    Just when you think you've seen the worst, most depraved, most poisonous elements of transgender ideology, it surprises you with something new and even worse.Reduxx has the story:A three-year-old girl was triggered to enter precocious puberty following exposure to her trans-identified father's "gender affirming" topical estrogen gel. The toddler was seen by pediatric endocrinologists after experiencing breast development and vaginal discharge over a time frame of six months.At this point, my friends, I don't blame you for wanting to shut down your computer and just look away and never think of this again.

    President Donald Trump addressed the ongoing concerns of famine in Gaza on Monday, breaking from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Sunday comments in which he said, “There is no starvation in Gaza.” Trump was asked about the humanitarian crisis in Gaza while meeting with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Turnberry, Scotland. “It’s going to be working where the United States will be helping with the food. You know, we have a lot of access to food; we got a lot of food ourselves, and we’re going to bring it over there. We’re also going to make sure that they...

    Employees at aviation and aerospace company Volonaut have been watching a few too many movies. For the general population, though, that's a good thing. While many young males were dreaming of light saber battles or flying through the wilderness on a speeder bike, Volonaut founder Tomasz Patan was thinking about how to build his own futuristic equipment. On Wednesday, the company revealed it had created a real-world "Star Wars" method of transportation. While the Death Star may have been too big of a project, Volonaut's feat is still incredibly impressive, as the company revealed a real-life speeder bike, listed on...

    House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said Sunday that Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell deserves a life sentence, rejecting the idea of a potential pardon for the convicted sex trafficker. In an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press," Johnson was asked if he supported a pardon for Maxwell, but the speaker emphasized that the decision ultimately belongs to President Donald Trump. "I think 20 years was a pittance," Johnson said of Maxwell's time behind bars. "I think she should have a life sentence, at least. I mean, think of all these unspeakable crimes." "I mean it's hard to put into...

    Yesterday, we told you that the FireAid scandal hit President Trump's radar. As it should: tens of millions of dollars raised with the explicit promise that those monies would go directly to victims of the L.A. wildfires. Instead, the money went to Leftist nonprofit organizations, and not a dime went to people who lost everything.
