FBI investigations of a heinous online child predator network have expanded to target more than 450 people, the bureau said on Tuesday. Officials continue to crack down on groups going by names such as “764” that lure children into violent online communities and induce them toward self-harm or sexual acts, FBI Dallas Special Agent in Charge Joe Rothrock said in a statement warning parents and schoolteachers. Authorities have traced similar groups’ beginnings to at least 2019, announcing more than 350 subjects of investigations by late last year. FBI Dallas is sharing information with parents, guardians, and teachers about violent online...

On Wednesday, FBI Director Kash Patel appeared before the House Judiciary Committee for scheduled oversight and gave details on how the FBI is working to combat online threats against Americans. As our sister site Twitchy reported, our children are the main targets of these dangerous predators and destructive online platforms. The alleged murderers of Charlie Kirk and UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson have become prime examples of where this type of radicalization leads. Patel mentioned in his opening statement a nihilist extremist group called "764," then alluded to the April arrests of two of their leaders. In May, Patel posted about...

As Planned Parenthood has expanded its so-called “gender-affirming care” over the past decade, detransitioners who obtained hormones from the corporation have publicly repudiated Planned Parenthood’s dangerous transgender practices. Planned Parenthood disproportionately targets young people aged 18-22 with its so-called “gender affirming care.” As can be observed by reading stories of detransitioners, most describe having been vulnerable and even struggling with mental illness when they sought “treatment” for gender dysphoria from Planned Parenthood. The cross-sex hormones left some of them with permanent issues. Though the number of people negatively affected by Planned Parenthood’s “gender affirming care” will never be known, some...

District Judge Kevin Mullins, who was gunned down in his own chambers by former Sheriff Shawn “Mickey” Stines, is now at the center of shocking allegations that his courthouse was operated like a “brothel.” The revelation comes from police recordings obtained by NewsNation’s Banfield, exposing a web of abuse of power, sexual exploitation, and a justice system gone rogue. Audio recordings from the investigation into former Deputy Ben Fields, who was convicted of rape, sodomy, and perjury, have revealed chilling details of a sex-for-favors scheme that allegedly involved Judge Mullins. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Sheriff Stines was deposed...

SALT LAKE CITY — State officials refused this week to reinstate the license of a Utah County physician who was jailed in 2009 after his conviction on charges that he traded prescription drugs for sexual favors. Members of the state's Physicians Licensing Board rejected Dr. Max Cannon's second bid to have his medical license reinstated after a hearing earlier this year in which Cannon blamed bipolar disorder for his past conduct. Cannon had submitted a previous application for reinstatement of his license in February 2008, about 10 days after he was arrested during a hotel sex-sting operation involving a patient....

Michael Raso of RetroSeduction Cinema has contacted me with the sad news that writer-director Joseph W. Sarno passed away this evening at his home in Manhattan after a short illness. He was 89. Sarno toiled in the sexploitation industry, but I dislike referring to him as a sexploitation or even an exploitation director, though his films were certainly sold this way.

A new advertising campaign from Burger King that marries SpongeBob and women with square buts hasn’t been well received in all quarters. The ad campaign sees The Burger King “King” singing “I love square butts” surrounded by women shaking their square butts in an effort to promote a Burger King Kids Meal that comes with a SpongeBob SquarePants toy. Lyrics include the line “I wanna git wit’cha, cause you’re makin’ me richer.”

<p>I read occasionally of former Weatherman Bill Ayers and his wife Bernardine Dohrn, both now not only accepted, despite their bombing campaign against America in the 1960s and 70s, but successful , establishment educators whose opinions on social issues are taken seriously. Every time I see Ayers’ name I shudder with fear and rage and realize that I will never be able to erase the mark he left on my life one evening 40 years ago.</p>

O.K., it is the weekend and time to have a little fun. And besides, some of our readers sent email asking when we would reflect upon another major motion picture in our “Leadership Ideas From the Movies Series.” The movie is “Dawg” with Denis Leary and Elizabeth Hurley. Most guys could watch Elizabeth Hurley knit and be entertained if not aroused. And she is great in this. In “Dawg” Leary plays ladies’ man who must apologize to the women he has betrayed before he can inherit $1 million from his grandmother. Hurley plays the woman attorney who supervises the project....

<p>Aug. 18 issue — Like many teenage girls in Minneapolis, 17-year-old Stacey liked to hang out after school at the Mall of America, Minnesota’s vast shopping megaplex. Cute, blond and chatty, she flirted with boys and tried on the latest Gap fashions. One day last summer, Stacey, which isn’t her real name, says she was approached by a man who told her how pretty she was, and asked if he could buy her some clothes. “He was an older guy, dressed really well,” she recalls. “He said he just wanted to see me in the clothes.” Stacey agreed, and went home that night with a $250 outfit.</p>
