One of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims who testified against Ghislaine Maxwell has mysteriously died. Jeffrey Epstein’s pimp Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison earlier this year. Maxwell worked as Jeffrey Epstein’s pimp for years and the DOJ knew they were running girls as young as 12 but they refused to act. Carolyn Andriano, one of Epstein’s victims who testified against Maxwell, was found unresponsive in a West Palm Beach hotel earlier this year. There was no funeral or obituary and West Palm Beach police opened an investigation into her death after it was concluded she died of an...

Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is said to have turned down an invitation to speak at Turning Point Action (TPA) in West Palm Beach, Florida, this weekend — a move that has conservatives perplexed. Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, shared Posobiec’s tweet, writing, “Too bad!” Cernovich offered a similar sentiment to Bowyer’s. Who told DeSantis to snub Turning Point? Is he afraid they’ll boo him? They wouldn’t. What exactly is the “thinking” going on with his brainiac brain trust of big donor funded advisers? While DeSantis will not be at the event, four other Republican presidential...

The 24 bright green baby parrots began chirping and bobbing their heads the second anyone neared the large cages that have been their homes since hatching in March. The Central American natives, seized from a smuggler at Miami International Airport, are being raised by the Rare Species Conservatory Foundation — a round-the-clock effort that includes five hand feedings a day in a room filled with large cages. At just 9 weeks old, these parrots have already survived a harrowing journey after being snatched from their nests in a forest. They are almost fully feathered now and the staff has started...

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A bicyclist fell to her death when a drawbridge connecting Palm Beach to the Florida mainland began rising before she could reach the other side.

West Palm Beach, FL—Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced that he was holding a press conference today, but upon arriving at the media availability, the event turned into more of a rally for his “Election Integrity” initiative that he has been pushing since the 2020 presidential election, and now during the “Brandon Administration.” Gov. DeSantis touched on all the “Big Tech” and “Election Integrity” red meat talking points the crowd of about 300 came to hear, but it wasn’t until he took a big swipe at Chief Medical Advisor to the President, Dr. Anthony Fauci, that the roof came down. “A...

It was a change of pace for the Trumps, who had...

Blexit founder Candace Owens told Breitbart News on Friday she believes the “impeachment fiasco” is good for President Donald Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign, as more and more moderate Democrats are waking up to the fact their party stands for “damaging America as a whole.” “I see the silver lining in that, I think it’s great for Trump,” said Owens, after speaking to thousands of young conservatives at Turning Point USA’s fifth annual Student Action Summit in West Palm Beach, Florida. “I think that it’s going to definitely give him a lot of energy when he’s at rallies,” she added, “We’re...

West Palm Beach Lake Pavilion is a city-owned park and event venue frequently used by the homeless as a place to sleep. City officials are now playing the children’s songs “Baby Shark” and “Raining Tacos” in the park to annoy homeless campers, preventing them from sleeping, according to the Palm Beach Post. “Legally morally ethically and even fiscally, any way you look at it, this [music] is not the right approach to this [homelessness] problem,” said Eric Tars,...
