Multiple women paid by Rep. Matt Gaetz’s wingman and close associate Joel Greenberg claim they felt pressured to do drugs and have sex with him. Twelve women agreed to talk with The Daily Beast about their experiences with Greenberg and his friends under the condition of anonymity. All of them said it was their understanding that Greenberg—who until his indictment last June served as the elected tax collector for Seminole County, Florida—was paying them at least in part for sex, going as far back as 2013. Ten women told The Daily Beast they felt pressure at one time or another to […]

The attacks were first identified in Cuba in 2016 in what became known as “Havana Syndrome.” American diplomats were believed to have been targeted with directed energy from an unknown source. Victims of the suspected attacks have reported symptoms including severe headaches, ringing and pressure in the ears, and even long-term brain damage. Since then the incidents have stumped officials across the U.S. government, where a massive investigation is beginning to take shape as the threat to American personnel has increased — both overseas and on U.S. soil. “The response was inadequate in the early stages.

We don’t want to see provocations,” Price said. “The provocations we have seen […]

Tomorrow we get a CPI number which according to consensus at least, will be historic: it will be the first 0.3% sequential increase in core (not the much higher headline) prices this century… … a talking point which will merely underscore the recent surge in inflation fears across both companies (who can pass these rising costs on to consumers)… … and consumers (who can’t). Yet while households are growing more convinced with each passing day that higher prices will stick, with the NY Fed’s latest survey of consumer expectations revealing that over the next year consumers anticipate gasoline prices jumping 9.18%, […]

Former nursing assistant Reta Mays received seven consecutive life sentences on Tuesday for murdering seven elderly veterans at a West Virginia VA hospital.

Time Magazine, which infamously pushed the hedonistic “child-free lifestyle,” is now claiming the “free market” is dead. Of course, to make the argument, the magazine inaccurately conflates ever-increasing crony capitalism, which has existed in the US for decades, with the free market that hasn’t really existed since the rise of the Federal Reserve System in 1913 and the later rise of Keynesian economics. According to the article by Chris Hughes, who’s also of the Roosevelt Institute: “We have had regulations, public investment, and macroeconomic management to varying degrees throughout American history.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – A US judge issued an order on Tuesday dismissing the National Rifle Association’s (NRA) attempt to file for bankruptcy and move the organization to Texas because it finds the organization is trying to dodge a civil lawsuit from the New York Attorney General. Source link
A bankruptcy judge in Texas called the National Rifle Association’s bankruptcy filing disingenuous and “not having been filed in good faith” as he dismissed the petition Tuesday. The gun rights organization filed for bankruptcy in January despite boasting five million members and 500 employees, and it brings in roughly $300 million in revenue each year, according to court documents. The filing under Chapter 11 bankruptcy law would have allowed the NRA to relocate its financial assets from New York, where it faces a massive lawsuit from the state’s attorney general, to Texas. The group has been officially domiciled in New York […]

Police pursued a stolen U-Haul truck for two hours through Los Angeles and Orange County in California. The driver kept the pedal to the metal, stopping only when his shredded tires set the truck ablaze. The chase began in Buena Park, to the southeast of Los Angeles, in the early hours of Tuesday morning. Irvine Police Department reported a stolen U-Haul truck, and the driver fled from officers in the direction of Los Angeles. Followed by cars from multiple police departments and California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers, the suspect drove towards the city and then back toward Orange County for two […]
(Natural News) Legislators in Florida passed a bill instituting a total ban on vaccine passports in the Sunshine State. On April 29, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill (SB) 2006 – which prevents both government agencies and private businesses from requiring people to show proof of vaccination before availing of a product or service. The bill bolsters an executive order signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis early that month prohibiting the use of vaccine passports. According to the bill, “any business operating in this state may not require patrons or customers to provide any documentation certifying COVID-19 vaccination or post-infection […]
MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Russia has declared the Romanian Embassy’s assistant defence attache in Moscow persona non grata.

South Korea’s Korea Aerospace Industries, commonly known as KAI, has released a short promo video of its proposed design for the future military transport aircraft. The released video doesn’t reveal much other than a shape that resembles pretty much every other aircraft in the class, as the Japanese C-2 or Ukrainian An-178. At the same time, the plane will be multi-mission aircraft that develops to haul cargo, carrying missiles, launch rockets into space and insert special operators, and refuel other aircraft, among other uses. Last month, Yonhap News Agency also quoted the company’s Executive Vice President Ryu Kwang-su saying that KAI […]
MOSCOW—President Putin immediately ordered an overhaul of laws allowing civilians access to semi-automatic weapons after the latest tragic example of Russia’s outbreak of U.S.-style school shootings. At least nine people were killed after an attack using a semi-automatic shotgun in the city of Kazan on Monday. Children—who have become accustomed to deadly ‘Columbiner’ rampages across Russia over the last ten years—were so terrified that they leapt from classroom windows to escape the shooting. Horrifying video circulating on social media shows students plummeting from third floor windows. Local outlets reported that at least two students died from the fall. At least seven […]

Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser had the massive yellow lettered anti-Trump protest message “Black Lives Matter” located a block from the White House paved over now that President Trump is no longer in the White House. Bowser had the two block long message painted on 16th Street NW in response to Trump’s taking control of D.C. streets to shut down liberals rioting and burning the nation’s capital last year. Bowser dubbed the site “Black Lives Matter Plaza.” The move comes a day after the Biden administration opened Lafayette Square to the public for the first time since the George Floyd riots. […]
Schumer used his testimony to raise the stakes of a battle against state-level voting laws that he said “carry the stench of oppression.” He implored the GOP: “Are you going to stamp it out or are you going to allow it to be spread? I plead with my Republicans, think twice. I plead with Leader McConnell: think twice.” McConnell retorted that Democrats wrote their elections bill in response to the results of the 2016 election and that their “supposed rationales [for it] have changed constantly.” “Our democracy is not in crisis, and we’re not going to let one party take over […]
China’s National Bureau of Statistics published the results of its 2020 national census Tuesday, revealing one of the most modest population increases in the country’s history and prompting panic in Chinese government media that the nation would soon have the world’s lowest fertility rate. China’s Global Times, citing government-approved demographers, concluded that “the general declining trend was inevitable, and China’s population is likely to start to decline as early as 2022.” In April, following a delay in the publication of the full population report by the Communist Party, Western news outlets predicted the population had already begun to fall in 2020. Beijing […]
By MassPrivateI As more and more people use their smartphones to pay for everyday items, public transit agencies are encouraging millions of Americans to use their phones as their primary means of paying their fares. In New York City and elsewhere, police can use ‘touch ‘n go’ or ‘touchless fares’ to track millions of public transit users’ movements. New York’s Metropolitan Transit Authority’s OMNY Executive Director Al Putre said that as of December 2020 there have been over 34 million taps. Imagine you are the Feds or the NYPD and you just found out that your agency now has access to […]
Via SchiffGold.com, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell insists inflation is “transitory.” As prices have spiked throughout the economy, Powell’s messaging has essentially been, “Move along. Nothing to see here.” Peter Schiff has been saying the central bankers at the Fed can’t actually tell the truth about inflation because even if they acknowledge it’s a problem (and it is) they can’t do anything about it. In a recent talk, Jim Grant, investment guru and founder of Grant’s Interest Rate Observer, echoed Peter, saying the Fed can’t control inflation. During a webcast sponsored by State Street SPDR ETFs, Grant said he thinks “there’s a gale of inflation of […]

This morning around 10:10 CEST, in the international waters north of Cyprus, there was an interaction between an unspecified number of Turkish fishing boats and two Italian fishing boats (“Giacalone” and “San Giorgio 1 °”). The Turkish fishing boats launched materials (stones and smoke bombs) and carried out close maneuvers toward the Italian vessels, making contact with and slightly damaging one of them. The Italian Navy frigate “Margottini” (F 592), patroling in the area 35 miles to the south as asset of NATO “Sea Guardian” operation, launched its own helicopter while a Turkish Coast Guard patrol boat, which hired Turkish boats […]
Fuel suppliers can temporarily sell their stockpiles of lower-grade gasoline that normally could not be sold in those regions through May 18. Any lower-grade fuel in the distribution system on that date can still be distributed and sold after the deadline. Context: EPA typically issues such waivers after natural disasters have damaged refineries or fuel distribution infrastructure, but it can act whenever there is a major fuel supply disruption. For example, EPA issued two fuel waivers to Texas earlier this year in response to the deep freeze that plagued the state and caused fuel shortages. And last year the agency delayed […]
Welcome to Jimmy Carter 2.0, to an America saddled with a failed president and a failed Deep State whose minions worry about everything except what actually matters. The goddamned FBI and the goddamned CIA have one goddamned job, and that’s to protect our way of life. Period. And the fastest way to unravel our way of life — the most effective, deadly, and destructive way — is to interrupt the free flow of oil. Therefore, outside of physical threats to American persons and property, the FBI and the CIA should be focused almost exclusively on ensuring the energy that keeps our […]
New York City-based architecture firm Rekstur is tackling the city’s 578 miles of coastal real estate with a floating container home off Rockaway peninsula in Jamaica Bay.

By Matt Agorist Keller, TX — In one of the most blatant attacks on the First Amendment, a power tripping cop arrested a completely innocent man for allegedly “making a wide right turn.” This power tripping cop then called for backup and he and his backup then attacked, pepper sprayed, and beat that man’s dad for filming the unlawful arrest. The video evidence against the officers was so compelling that a lawsuit against the city was settled for a whopping $200,000 less than 6 months after the incident. Though the lawsuit was settled swiftly, it took the city of Keller, Texas […]
An independent group of McDonald’s franchisees warns higher wages, signing bonuses, paid interviews are no longer working to attract new workers as generous unemployment benefits worsen the labor shortage, according to Business Insider. The National Owners Association (NOA), an independent, self-funded advocacy group of McDonald’s franchisees, sent a letter to its members Sunday criticizing “hiring challenges on the “perverse effects of the current unemployment benefits.” The letter pointed to last week’s massive April payrolls employment miss, which consensus expected a whopping 1 million number, and some forecasters calling as high as 2+ million, were shocked with a 266k print. “What’s going on here? When people […]
Via South Front, A group of currently serving French soldiers has published an open letter warning President Emmanuel Macron that the survival of France is at stake after his “concessions” to Islamism. The French government condemned it, as well as a similar letter in April. This previous letter was signed and published by 20 French semi-retired generals. The letter to the government last month came from semi-retired generals. The minister in charge of the armed forces, Florence Parly, said they would be punished for defying a law that forbids reservists or serving members of the military from expressing opinions in public […]
The authorities in India are raising the alarm over a rise in a rare and potentially fatal fungal infection called mucormycosis among recovered but still vulnerable Covid-19 patients. The condition is caused by a group of molds called mucormycetes that are found in the soil and the air. Spores can enter the bloodstream through a cut or abrasion, and thereby spread to the eyes, spleen, heart, and brain. They can also be inhaled via the nose, entering the mucous glands, sinuses, and lungs, generating a respiratory infection. Mucormycosis often strikes the immunocompromised, including diabetics or those on medication to reduce an […]
(Natural News) A respected health expert in Idaho said, “it is an absolute insanity to wear a mask outside” during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. “The virus is fragile. It doesn’t live outside. UV light fractionates it, kills it, blows it apart. Ventilation and wind blow it away,” said Dr. Ryan Cole, CEO of Cole Diagnostics – one of the largest independent laboratories in the state. “That’s science. There is not one study that has shown any super-spreader event to have occurred outside. They have all been indoors with poor ventilation.” Healthy immune system is best mask of all Speaking in […]

Imagine traveling Europe solely based off citrus trees. It’s a novel approach (and certainly an aromatic one!), and while we’re not sure the path that would lead you on today, 300 years ago it would have taken you into some of the most spectacular gardens and homes on the continent. That’s why the latest selection for Just Booked, our series on gorgeous travel-related coffee table books, is Taschen’s J. C. Volkamer. The Book of Citrus Fruits. The European fascination with citrus trees originating in Asia dates back at least to Roman times, but it accelerated in the Baroque era. The Medici […]

by Lawrence Sellin and Anna Chen The following is one example of a much larger problem, not just at this institution, but all across the United States involving billions of taxpayer dollars in knowledge, skills and research grants being fed into China’s virus research laboratories, no doubt, some going to its biowarfare program. The University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) in Galveston is a major virus research center heavily funded by the National Institutes of Health, especially Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. In August 2020, UTMB was designated by Anthony Fauci as one of the ten Centers […]
Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday endorsed the winner of the Virginia Republican convention vote, Glenn Younkin, setting him up for a fight against former Virginia Gov. Terry McAulliffe (D) in the fall. “Glenn is pro-Business, pro-Second Amendment, pro-Veterans, pro-America, he knows how to make Virginia’s economy rip-roaring, and he has my Complete and Total Endorsement!” Trump wrote in a statement sent to reporters. Youngkin, a Virginia native and a former CEO of the Carlyle Group retired in September to run for office and won the unconventional “unassembled” convention process to choose the nominee. Trump highlighted McAulliffe’s ties to the Clintons and […]

“We think this week’s markup in the Senate Rules Committee will be an important inflection point in senators’ understanding of the issue, in public awareness of S. 1,” Steven Law, the president of One Nation, said in an interview, referencing the bill’s official title. “This advocacy blitz, which starts on Tuesday, is designed to amplify all of that.” Democrats have made the bill a top priority for their party, and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has said “failure is not an option” on the legislation, though there is likely to be internal debate over the path forward. The House passed their version […]
Flordia Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) raised nearly $14 million in April, the largest haul since his 2018 campaign for a grand total of nearly $31 million in his war chest. The Friends of Ron DeSantis political committee is responsible for the fundraising in which two donors contributed over half the total amount of $7.8 million. The donors are Chicago hedge fund manager Kenneth Griffin ($5 million) and the Republican Governors’ Association ($2.8 million). Griffin was the largest donor to DeSantis in 2018. By comparison, former Florida governor and current Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) raised in six months eight years ago what DeSantis has raised […]
A UK transport union has lashed out at West Midlands Trains for causing “so much hurt,” after the operator promised staff a bonus for “hard work” during the Covid pandemic, before revealing it was a “phishing simulation test.” In a Twitter post on Tuesday, Manuel Cortes, general secretary of the Transport Salaried Staffs’ Association (TSSA) union, said the private-sector train operator’s behaviour was “despicable” and a “cynical and shocking stunt.” According to the union, West Midlands Trains (WMT) emailed 2,500 of its staff on April 21 thanking them for their “hard work” during the pandemic and promising workers a one-off payment.
