Tranny ‘T*ts’ Out for Joe Biden’s White House Pride Party.

President Joe Biden and his wife Jill celebrated ‘Pride’ alongside topless transgender ‘influencers’ who danced around the South Lawn of the White House over the weekend.

Rose Montoya, a biological male who now identifies as a woman, can be seen shaking his faux breasts next to a flexing woman who, as is visible from the scars, cut her breasts off to appear more like a man.

After the event, Montoya stated publicly, “I had zero intention of trying to be vulgar, or be profane in any way… I was simply living in joy, living my truth, and existing in my body. Happy Pride. Free the nipple.”

Other videos show Montoya dancing sexually with a trans flag in front of the podium from which Joe and Jill Biden both spoke.

“You are the bravest and most inspiring people I have ever known,” claimed President Biden, a man who once described his son Hunter as “the smartest guy I know.”

Biden added, “Jill and I, Kamala and Doug, the entire administration are doing everything we can to advance equality for the LGBTQ community in our nation — the entire nation.”

Multiple Men Allegedly Drugged and Raped at Epstein Ranch.

State authorities are investigating new claims of abuse at Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe County, New Mexico.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Authorities are investigating new claims of abuse involving Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch in New Mexico. The allegations include the drugging and rape of young men and women.
📺 DETAIL: New allegations of abuse have surfaced in relation to Jeffrey Epstein’s 7,500-acre Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe County, New Mexico. In a documentary released on Sunday, alleged victims provided their testimonies of being drugged and raped at the ranch. In February, authorities reopened a probe into Epstein’s activities at the secretive property after millions of files related to the deceased pedophile were released by the Department of Justice (DOJ). Since then, state authorities have been working to identify additional victims, possible co-conspirators, and even the alleged burial of two girls near the site by a former ranch staffer. It has also been alleged that “multiple young men” were among the victims of Epstein and his co-conspirators.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were serial abusers, they really were super predators, and it was just how they lived their lives.” – Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM).
🎯 IMPACT: At present, the authorities are reportedly working with the Truth Commission, New Mexico’s bipartisan panel investigating the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein at Zorro Ranch. Only one of the residents alleging abuse was from the state, which raises questions about the role and extent of human trafficking in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Furthermore, the report is notable in that young men feature prominently among the alleged victims at the ranch, whre previously the vast majority of victims have been women and girls.

UAE Breaks With OPEC Amid Escalating Energy Crisis.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is exiting OPEC, signaling a shift in global oil dynamics as energy prices surge amid the Iran war.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has announced it is leaving the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), the global cartel of oil-producing countries. The decision to leave the organization is seen as a move by the country towards increasing oil production.
📺 DETAIL: On Tuesday, the UAE announced its decision to leave OPEC after nearly 60 years. The country was the cartel’s third-largest oil producer after Saudi Arabia and Iraq. Prior to the UAE’s departure from OPEC, the organization comprised 12 member countries: Algeria, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and the UAE. The UAE’s departure follows major disruptions to energy trade caused by the Iran war, particularly the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, leading to higher oil and gas prices. The UAE has also announced its decision to leave OPEC+, an alliance between the original 12 OPEC countries and 11 non-OPEC countries: Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Brunei, Brazil, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Mexico, Oman, Russia, South Sudan, and Sudan.
🎯 IMPACT: OPEC was founded to protect the interests of its member states through joint action. The UAE’s exit from OPEC and OPEC+ could disrupt the cartel’s ability to coordinate oil production and control prices, potentially increasing supply but contributing to market volatility. This is especially true if the UAE manages to significantly increase its oil production to match growing market demand. However, with travel through the Strait of Hormuz still disrupted, it is unclear how much additional product the Emirates can realistically export.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Following its exit, the UAE will continue to act responsibly, bringing additional production to market in a gradual and measured manner, aligned with demand and market conditions. While near-term volatility, including disruptions in the Arabian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, continues to affect supply dynamics, underlying trends point to sustained growth in global energy demand over the medium to long term.” — WAM news agency, the UAE’s official state-run news agency.

Federal Agents Raid Minnesota Daycares in Fraud Crackdown.

Federal authorities executed search warrants at approximately 20 childcare centers in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where widespread daycare fraud linked to the Somali community is suspected.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Federal agents conducted raids at around 20 childcare centers in Minneapolis, Minnesota, early Tuesday morning as part of an ongoing investigation into fraud schemes in the state. The Department of Justice (DOJ) confirmed the law enforcement actions but did not announce any arrests during the operation.
📺 DETAIL: Since 2021, 92  people—many of them members of the Somali community—have been charged with fraud in Minnesota, with 67 convictions, including cases tied to the Feeding Our Future scandal that exploited federal nutrition programs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Tuesday’s raids appeared to be part of a broader effort to address suspected fraud at Somali daycares, following viral reporting online by citizen journalist Nick Shirley. These investigations have faced pushback from Democrat officials who have courted the Somali community for votes, including Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who previously denounced criticism of Somalis as divisive and harmful.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Today the FBI with federal, state and local law enforcement is involved in court-authorized law enforcement activity as part of an ongoing fraud investigation,” a Justice Department spokesman stated.
🎯 IMPACT: The raids underscore federal authorities’ renewed focus on combating fraud, which has cost taxpayers billions of dollars. Vice President J.D. Vance is leading the Trump administration’s anti-fraud task force, and has already frozen certain Medicaid funding to Minnesota and suspended hundreds of California hospices suspected of engaging in fraudulent activity.

Argentina’s Vice Prez Calls for Ethnic Cleansing of Britain’s Falkland Islands.

Argentina’s Vice President has called for all of the residents of the Falkland Islands to leave for Britain, as her country presses its claim to the territory.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Argentina’s Vice President Victoria Villarruel said Falkland Islanders who feel British are “not part of the discussion” about sovereignty over the territory their ancestors settled hundreds of years ago, and they should “go back to England.” Notably, this covers almost the entire population, with 99.8 percent of the population voting to remain British in a 2013 referendum with a turnout of 92 percent.
📺 DETAIL: Buenos Aires is pushing for renewed bilateral talks on Argentina’s sovereignty claims, with Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno calling for an end to British “colonialism” after the leak of a Pentagon memo suggesting the Trump administration could review its “diplomatic support” for British sovereignty. Vice President Villarruel’s comments raise concerns that Argentina hopes to ethnically cleanse the islands, which they call “Las Malvinas,” of their British residents. British government officials—despite their parallel efforts to give away the Chagos Islands in the Indian Ocean to China-allied Mauritius, against the Trump administration’s wishes—have stated that their commitment to the Falklands is “unwavering,” emphasizing the Falklanders’ right to self-determination. Reform Party leader Nigel Farage is planning a visit to Argentina to underscore that British control of the islands is “non-negotiable.”
💬 KEY QUOTE: “The Kelpers [Falklanders] are English people who live in Argentine territory; they are not part of the discussion. If they feel English, they should go back to the thousands of miles away where their country is.” – Argentine Vice President Victoria Villarruel.
🎯 IMPACT: The call for the Falkland Islanders to leave their homes has sparked fears that the Argentines would forcibly deport residents if they took the territory by force. In 1982, Argentina launched an invasion of the Falklands, causing Britain to send the largest naval force it had assembled since World War II to liberate them. The fighting lasted just over two months, with hundreds of dead on both sides. However, Argentina suffered significantly heavier losses, with over 11,000 soldiers captured following a British victory.

Drug-Laced Vapes Are Putting Minors in Hospital.

A 16-year-old student at Thomas Stone High School in Maryland was hospitalized after using a THC-laced vape, reinforcing growing concerns about vape use among minors.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A 16-year-old student at Thomas Stone High School in Maryland was taken to hospital after falling ill from using a vape laced with THC, obtained from another student. The incident occurred on April 22, with the student being transported to hospital by ambulance after visiting the school nurse.
📰 DETAIL: The student who provided the THC vape was identified and received a civil citation for cannabis possession. Notably, another student at Thomas Stone High School was hospitalized after collapsing in the school cafeteria after being seen using a vape in November, although in that case, no vape device was recovered following the incident.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Parents are urged to talk with their children about the dangers of using vapes with THC which contain potentially harmful and mind-altering components.” – Charles County Sheriff’s Office
🎯 IMPACT: The Thomas Stone High School case is just the latest in a string of recent incidents in the area involving middle and high school students who were caught with THC vapes. The Charles County Sheriff’s Office reports that, on April 20, a THC vape was seized from a 14-year-old at Mattawoman Middle School. Two days earlier, on April 16, a THC vape was recovered from a 13-year-old at Piccowaxen Middle School. And on April 15, a 14-year-old at Davis Middle School was found in possession of a THC vape.
📺 FLASHBACK: In March, police in Smithfield, North Carolina, caught four out of ten vape stores they investigated selling to children. Similar problems have been observed on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, with vape shop owners and clerks in Britain not only selling to minors but also using the premises to groom and rape underage girls. Some teenagers in Britain have suffered even worse health effects after vaping than the students at Thomas Stone High School, with one 18-year-old in Norfolk, England, falling into a life-threatening coma after she shared a vape.

CBS Has Fired Its London Editor for Not Being Sufficiently Pro-Israel.

The ouster of CBS News London Bureau Chief Claire Day follows internal disputes over reporting on Israel, with a new foreign editor set to oversee international coverage.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: CBS News London Bureau Chief Claire Day is leaving her position following internal tensions over the network’s coverage of Israel, particularly with respect to the wars it has been fighting in Gaza and Iran. CBS is introducing a new foreign editor role, with Shayndi Raice, formerly of The Wall Street Journal, set to take over international coverage starting May 11. A CBS source complained that Day’s replacement “has no previous television experience and very little managerial experience—certainly on the scale required.”
📺 DETAIL: Insiders report that Day, who has worked at CBS News for two decades, had been “pushing back on calls” against editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, an avowed Zionist, over perceived biases in reporting on Israel and the Middle East. Day reportedly advocated for balanced coverage, while a cameraman and editor in contact with Weiss accused Day of running the bureau in London like a “Hamas cell.” An internal investigation cleared Day of bias allegations.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Claire has been the most committed soldier to CBS News for nearly a quarter of a century… For Bari and [CBS News President] Tom [Cibrowski] to discard her because she failed some undefined purity test is appalling.” – CBS insider.
🎯 IMPACT: The leadership change signals a shift in CBS News’ approach to international reporting, raising questions about editorial independence on the subject of Israel and its military actions in Gaza, Iran, Lebanon, Syria, and other states and territories in the region.
📺 FLASHBACK: In March, Weiss and Cibrowski announced major layoffs at CBS, including the shutdown of its radio division after almost a century of operation. “It’s no secret that the news business is changing radically, and that we need to change along with it,” the pair stated in a joint memo.

The Iranian Embassy in London is Recruiting Expats for a Martyrdom Campaign.

The Iranian Embassy in London, England, encouraged expatriates to register for a martyrdom campaign in a post on its Telegram channel.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The Iranian Embassy in London posted a message on its Telegram channel calling on Iranian expatriates in the United Kingdom to join a “Sacrificing Life for the Homeland” campaign. The post called on “the children of Iran” to give their lives in battle against “the enemy”.
📺 DETAIL: Posted on the Embassy’s Telegram channel on April 15, the message calls on the “brave and distinguished children of Iran” to register for the campaign to demonstrate that “their hearts are bound to the dignity and greatness of their homeland.” The post concludes with a verse from The Shahnameh (The Book of Kings), the national epic poem of Greater Iran, reading: “Let us all, one and all, give our lives in battle. Rather than surrender our country to the enemy.” The message gained hundreds of reactions. The Telegram channel where the message was posted dates back to August 2021 and is linked on the Embassy’s official website.
🎯 IMPACT: The campaign raises concerns about terrorist sleeper cells and the potential for the radicalization of migrant communities in Britain and the wider West by Tehran.
📺FLASHBACK: In March, thousands of demonstrators gathered in London in support of the Iranian regime. Despite Britain not taking part in the strikes against Iran, the war is having an impact in Britain, with a knife-wielding illegal immigrant attempting to break into the Israeli Embassy in London in April, in what prosecutors described as an attempted terror attack.

MAHA vs Trump Admin: SCOTUS Protests After EPA Caves to Big Pharma.

A group of Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) activists protested in front of the Supreme Court over a case involving the biotech and pharma giant Bayer and its use of the pesticide glyphosate, which critics have linked to cancer, despite the Trump administration siding with Bayer.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) advocates protested outside the Supreme Court during oral arguments on Bayer’s liability for not warning consumers about potential cancer risks regarding its pesticide Roundup, which contains glyphosate.
📰 DETAIL: The Trump administration is backing Bayer, arguing that federal regulations should preempt such claims because the company follows approved labeling standards. The protest is being led in part by activist Vani Hari, known as “The Food Babe,” who has previously organized campaigns against food additives. The case has drawn national attention because it could limit individuals’ ability to sue over alleged cancer risks linked to pesticides. Polling shows broad bipartisan concern about pesticide safety and opposition to shielding companies from liability in cancer-related cases. Activists argue the administration’s stance conflicts with its Make America Healthy Again agenda, while Bayer maintains its product is safe and compliant with federal guidelines. Hari has previously criticized President Donald J. Trump for signing an executive order in February that granted national security protection to Roundup. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a leader in the MAHA movement, has expressed concerns over glyphosate in the past. The outcome of the case could have significant legal and political implications, including potential effects on voter sentiment ahead of the upcoming midterm elections.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “We wouldn’t be doing this if the Trump administration just stayed out of things and hadn’t gotten involved. They did in such a way that ran counter to our movement… we have to do something.” – Vani Hari
🎯 IMPACT: The outcome of the case could influence public health and voter turnout in the 2026 midterm elections, particularly among MAHA women who prioritize health issues. A conflict between the MAHA movement and the Trump administration could fracture the broad political alliance that helped Trump win in 2024.

DOJ Outlines Assassination Attempt Against President Trump After Suspect Formally Charged.

California teacher Cole Allen has been formally charged with attempting to assassinate President Donald J. Trump during the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in Washington, D.C., on Saturday.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The Department of Justice (DOJ) held a press conference following Cole Tomas Allen’s first appearance in federal court on Monday, where he was charged with attempting to assassinate President Donald J. Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) dinner at the Washington Hilton hotel in Washington, D.C., on Saturday.
📰 DETAIL: Allen allegedly traveled from California to Washington, D.C., with a pump-action shotgun, a handgun, and three knives, intending to carry out a political assassination. He had made a hotel reservation for three nights and checked into the Hilton on Friday. A note found at his home expressed anger towards the Trump administration. He traveled by train from Los Angeles to Chicago on April 1 and from Chicago to Washington, D.C. on April 24th, before checking into the Washington Hilton.
🎯 IMPACT: Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, joined by U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel, confirmed at the press conference that Allen faces a count of attempted assassination of the President of the United States, punishable by up to life imprisonment, interstate transportation of a firearm to commit a felony, punishable by up to ten years in prison, and discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence, punishable by up to life and a mandatory minimum of ten years in prison. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro confirmed additional charges will follow.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “At approximately 8.40 PM, on the night of April 25th, Allen approached the security checkpoint on the terraced level of the hotel, a floor above where the dinner was taking place. He ran through the magnetometer holding a long gun. As he did so, U.S. Security Service personnel assigned to the checkpoint heard a loud gunshot. One Secret Service officer was shot in the chest, but was wearing a ballistic vest that worked. This heroic officer who was hit fired five times at Allen, who was not shot but fell to the ground and was promptly arrested.” – Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche

New Plan Could Claw Back 4 GOP Seats After Virginia Referendum Defeat.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) has introduced a redistricting proposal reflecting the state’s population growth, which could allow Republicans to gain four additional seats in the November midterms.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has unveiled a new congressional map that could give Republicans four additional seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. The map reflects Florida’s population growth and demographic shifts, with the governor emphasizing that it ensures fair representation for the state. This follows the GOP losing referendum on redistricting that will favor the Democrats in Virginia.
📺 DETAIL: The proposal, shared on Monday ahead of a special legislative session to consider redistricting, would reshape multiple districts in a way that favors GOP candidates. DeSantis argues the proposed reforms are justified by the state’s population growth and issues with prior census data. Democrats complain the plan amounts to partisan gerrymandering and have threatened legal challenges, noting Florida’s constitution prohibits maps from being drawn to benefit a political party. Notably, DeSantis’s effort follows a Democrat-led redistricting push in Virginia, which is likely to hand Democrats several additional House seats. If approved by Florida lawmakers, DeSantis’s map could significantly influence the balance of power in Congress, although it will face legal challenges.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Florida got shortchanged in the 2020 Census, and we’ve been fighting for fair representation ever since.” – Ron DeSantis.
🎯 IMPACT: The new map could solidify Republican dominance in Florida, where the GOP already holds a 1.5 million voter registration advantage, and balance out the Democrats’ redistricting push in Virginia, which is likely to hand them four additional seats.
