How Media Matters, Trying to Bankrupt ‘X’, is Linked to Biden & the Plot to Stop Trump.

Joe Biden‘s Super PAC, Unite the Country, was recently led by a former aide to the President, who in addition to having involvement in Hunter Biden’s business deals, is also linked to Media Matters for America, the Soros-backed “news” site currently attempting to bankrupt Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter).

In the first half of 2023, Unite the Country disbursed over $60,000 for “fundraising consulting” to Prairie Avenue Advisors LLC, a Chicago-based company registered to Mark Doyle, who served as a senior adviser to Biden in the Senate, as well as the national finance director of Biden’s 2008 presidential bid. He later became chairman of Unite the Country.

Unite the Country has also joined forces with another Democratic Super PAC called American Bridge Group to form a $175 million anti-Trump coalition.

American Bridge Group was founded by conservative activist-turned-liberal henchman David Brock in November 2010. Brock, now labeled “one of the most influential political operatives in the Democratic Party,” also founded Media Matters in 2004.

The relationship between Media Matters and American Bridge is explicit, and extends beyond merely sharing an office in Washington D.C..

The pair are intertwined via their “Strategic Plan for Action” to fight the 45th U.S. President, which asserts, “We are going to resist the normalization of Donald Trump. His every conflict of interest, his every bit of cronyism, his every move toward authoritarianism, his every subversion of our democratic systems and principles, his every radical departure from foreign and domestic policy norms.”

Mark Doyle and Hunter Biden.

Doyle, who was also registered as a foreign agent on behalf of the Serbian government during Joe Biden’s stint as Vice President, exchanged multiple emails with Hunter Biden in which they discussed potential business dealings with the then-Serbian prime Minister Boris Tadic and other “high net worth” Serbians.

Doyle wrote to Hunter in 2010, “I think you mentioned that you spoke to them about putting you in front of high net worth individuals and they are ready to do that, and to have you meet Tadic as well. I am going there with Milan in May, and I think they are looking for you to join.”

Hunter responded several hours later, remarking that “Markie in the Middle” would be the name of the “reality show” he would produce before expressing interest in meeting high-profile Serbians. “How about we go over around May 10th. JRB will be in Madrid and I can catch a ride with him and fly over to Serbia and back with you.”

The two also corresponded with Eric Schwerin, a founding partner of Hunter’s now-dissolved firm Rosemont Seneca Partners, who visited the White House no less than 27 times during the Obama administration. Schwerin is widely considered to have been instrumental in Hunter’s expansion into China, from which the entire Biden family financially profited, as was recently established by the House Oversight and Accountability Committee.

While recent Media Matters aggression towards Elon Musk and his X platform may at first seem arbitrary, the moves are evidently part of a wider attempt to muzzle American conservatives and restrict free speech: a critical weapon in the arsenal of Biden regime dissidents.

Free Soda Refills Banned Under New Health Laws.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: “Two for one” offers on junk food and some free drink refills have been banned across England.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The ban affects supermarkets, large retailers, and online vendors.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The ban came into effect in England at the start of October 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Obesity robs children of the best possible start in life, sets them up for a lifetime of health problems and costs the [National Health Service] billions,” insists the Department of Health and Social Care.

🎯IMPACT: The measures aim to tackle obesity, especially in children, and include upcoming bans on advertising unhealthy foods before 9 PM on TV and online.

IN FULL

England has implemented a ban on “buy one, get one free” deals for junk food and certain free soda refills. The rule applies to grocery stores and other major retailers as well as online vendors. The regulations, which have been discussed for years, also ban free drink refill promotions for specific beverages in restaurants and cafes.

Social media users in the country have expressed disbelief at seeing signs appear on soda machines warning them that, “Based on new government laws,” they are only allowed to refill “low-sugar” soft drinks, with one asking, “Wtf is this country?”

Starting in January, advertising unhealthy food and drinks on TV before 9 PM will also be prohibited, along with all online promotions for such products. A Department of Health and Social Care spokesman called these measures a “crucial step” toward ensuring children have a healthy and happy start in life, saying, “Obesity robs children of the best possible start in life, sets them up for a lifetime of health problems and costs the [National Health Service] billions.”

The British government has created a classification system to support the advertising ban, targeting items like soda, candy, cakes, chocolates, and potato chips.

‘Blood on Your Hands’ — Deputy Prime Minister Heckled at UK Synagogue Vigil.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The United Kingdom’s Deputy Prime Minister, David Lammy, was heckled at a vigil for victims of a jihadist terror attack at a synagogue in Manchester, England.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy and Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, of Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party, and mourners.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The vigil took place in Manchester, following the attack at Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on Thursday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “You have blood on your hands,” said one heckler.

🎯IMPACT: The deadly synagogue attack has drawn intense criticism of the Labour government and its failure to curb mass migration and the growth of radical Islam.

IN FULL

David Lammy, the United Kingdom’s Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Secretary, encountered a hostile reception at a vigil held for the victims of the recent synagogue attack in Manchester. Mourners expressed their anger with the Labour government’s lack of action on mass immigration and increasing Islamic radicalism, shouting phrases such as “Shame on you,” and “You have blood on your hands,” and “Go to Palestine” at Lammy.

The vigil took place a day after the deadly attack at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue, which resulted in the deaths of Adrian Daulby, 53, and Melvin Cravitz, 66, and left three others seriously injured. The attack occurred on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, and was perpetrated by Syrian immigrant Jihad al-Shamie.

Lammy tried to emphasize a need for unity, stating, “We must stand in grief, in solidarity, and in defiance.” However, he has not previously been a unifying politician, emphasizing his black racial background, defending a comparison he made between Brexit supporters and Nazis as “[not] strong enough,” and describing the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement as a “cult of white supremacists.”

Reform Party leader Nigel Farage criticized the governing Labour Party and senior party figures such as Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood in the wake of the Manchester attack, noting that they “emboldened these people by recognizing ‘Palestine’ two weeks ago.”

“I must admit, as I speak to you today, I am more worried about the state of broken Britain than ever before,” he said.

War Sec Hegseth Reports Another Military Strike on Narco-Terrorists.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced a fifth military strike on narco-terrorists near Venezuela.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, U.S. Armed Forces, cartel smugglers.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The strike took place in waters near Venezuela on October 3.

💬KEY QUOTE: “These strikes will continue until the attacks on the American people are over!!!!” – Pete Hegseth.

🎯IMPACT: The latest strike comes amid rising tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela as the Trump administration declares war on drug cartels.

IN FULL

The U.S. military has killed four men in a strike on a vessel off the coast of Venezuela involved in drug trafficking tied to terrorist networks. In a statement posted October 3 on X, War Secretary Pete Hegseth said the targeted vessel was “affiliated with designated terrorist organizations” and was “transporting substantial amounts of narcotics headed to America to poison our people.”

Hegseth said intelligence confirmed the people on board were “narco-terrorists” operating along a known drug trafficking route. “These strikes will continue until the attacks on the American people are over!!!!” he warned.

The strike is the latest in a series of escalating military operations ordered by the Trump administration against cartel threats. So far, U.S. forces have carried out five lethal strikes on boats near Venezuelan waters.

President Donald J. Trump officially informed Congress last week that the United States is engaged in an “armed conflict” with foreign drug cartels, asserting that his administration is acting within its legal authority to eliminate threats to national security. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has strongly backed the campaign, saying of drug traffickers, “What will stop them is when you blow them up. You get rid of them.”

The Venezuelan government has condemned the strikes as a violation of its sovereignty and launched military drills in response. President Nicolás Maduro’s administration conducted a three-day naval and aerial exercise last month near the island of La Orchila, involving drones, warships, and electronic warfare units.

Maduro has also threatened to invoke emergency powers under the Venezuelan constitution and recently signed a decree granting him expanded authority over security and economic infrastructure in the event of a foreign military intervention.

The UK Synagogue Terrorist Was on Bail for Rape When He Attacked.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Jihad al-Shamie, the Syrian immigrant responsible for the Islamic terror attack on a synagogue in Manchester, England, on Thursday, was on police bail for rape when he struck.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Jihad al-Shamie, his victims, and the British authorities.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The terror attack occurred in Manchester, England, on Yom Kippur, with responding police officers shooting him dead.

💬KEY QUOTE: The terrorist’s father, Faraj Al-Shamie, stated, “May God protect Palestine and its heroic people,” following the October 7, 2023, attacks on Israel by Hamas, whom he described as “Allah’s men.”

🎯IMPACT: The attack has raised concerns over public safety and the monitoring of suspected criminals on police bail.

IN FULL

Jihad al-Shamie, the Syrian immigrant who carried out a deadly Islamic terror attack at a synagogue in Manchester, England, on Yom Kippur, was on police bail for an alleged rape when he struck.

The Syrian, granted British citizenship in 2006, caused the deaths of two Jewish men and the serious injury of three others during his attack, which involved a vehicle ramming followed by a knife rampage. Police shot al-Shamie dead at the scene, unintentionally injuring two of al-Shamie’s victims in the process, one fatally.

Reports have also revealed that al-Shamie’s father, Faraj al-Shamie, posted online praising the Hamas terror organization after their October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, which left over 1,200 dead and saw hundreds of hostages taken, including women, children, and the elderly, many of whom have subsequently been killed in Gaza. On the day of the October 7 massacre, Faraj called Hamas “Allah’s men on earth” and wrote, “May God protect Palestine and its heroic people.”

Reform Party leader Nigel Farage has lamented that the attack symbolizes “broken Britain,” noting how “Within hours of this horrific incident, we saw pro-Palestinian flags on the streets in London, Glasgow, and elsewhere, with people demonstrating in what were not planned protests… they weren’t demonstrating—they were celebrating.”

Farage also had harsh words for Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and the governing Labour Party, noting that his government “emboldened these people by recognizing ‘Palestine’ two weeks ago.”

Investigations into the Manchester attack and al-Shamie’s background are ongoing, with more details expected to emerge.

High Priestess: Church of England Names Pro-Abortion Woman as Top Archbishop.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The Church of England has selected a “pro-choice” woman to be the Archbishop of Canterbury, its most senior clerical office, for the first time.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Archbishop Sarah Mullally, the Church of England, the Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON), and Anglicans.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The announcement was made on October 3.

💬KEY QUOTE: “This appointment abandons global Anglicans, as the Church of England has chosen a leader who will further divide an already split Communion.” – GAFCON.

🎯IMPACT: The move will likely deepen the divisions in the Anglican Communion, and comes at a time when more and more young people in England are turning to Roman Catholicism.

IN FULL

The Church of England has appointed Sarah Mullally as the 106th Archbishop of Canterbury, the first woman ever to hold the Anglican church’s most senior clerical role. Mullally, 63, was known as a champion of Black Lives Matter and diversity as Bishop of London, and has previously described herself as “pro-choice” on the question of abortion.

Mullally has backed blessings for same-sex couples, pushed for greater inclusion of gender and sexual minorities, and branded the Church of England “institutionally racist” in a prior conversation with Anglican minister Calvin Robinson. “Calvin, as a white woman, I can tell you that the Church is institutionally racist,” she told the biracial conservative.

Mullally steps into the role less than a year after former Archbishop Justin Welby resigned following a child sex abuse cover-up, adding another stain to the institution’s already tarnished reputation. She is set to be officially installed in March 2026 at Canterbury Cathedral.

Her rise comes amid a broader ideological shift in the Church of England, which is widely regarded as abandoning its theological foundations in favor of woke, secular activism, using the image of Christ to promote anti-borders politics, for instance.

Last year, the Church faced backlash after St. Paul’s Cathedral, one of its most iconic institutions, even labeled wartime Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill a “white supremacist.”

The Church’s leftward drift has also been linked to falling attendance and declining public trust. A growing number of young Britons are reportedly turning to the Roman Catholic Church, seeking stability and tradition. There are now more young practicing Catholics in England than young practicing Anglicans, with Catholics expected to outnumber Anglicans in England overall in the coming years.

Mullally’s appointment has already drawn fire from the global Anglican community, particularly from leaders in Africa and Asia, where the majority of Anglicans live. The conservative GAFCON network, representing churches across the Global South, condemned the announcement, stating, “This appointment abandons global Anglicans, as the Church of England has chosen a leader who will further divide an already split Communion.”

Trump Issues ‘Last Chance’ Ultimatum to Hamas: Accept Peace Plan or Face ‘All Hell.’

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump has set a deadline for Hamas to agree to a deal to end the Gaza conflict, warning the Islamic terror group that they will face “all Hell” if they do not.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Hamas, and other Palestinian armed factions.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The peace proposal was unveiled on Monday at the White House; a Sunday 6 PM deadline has now been set for compliance.

💬KEY QUOTE: “If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas.” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: The deal seeks to end the conflict through a ceasefire, Hamas disarming, the establishment of a Palestinian-led governing committee, and the replacement of Israeli forces with an International Stabilization Force, but Hamas has yet to agree.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump has issued a Sunday deadline for Hamas to agree to a deal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict in Gaza. In a Friday morning Truth Social post, he warned that failing to accept the terms would result in crushing military action. Since being made public on Monday, Trump’s proposal has received significant backing from a number of key Middle Eastern governments, ramping up pressure on Hamas to accept the peace terms.

“Hamas has been a ruthless and violent threat, for many years, in the Middle East! They have killed (and made lives unbearably miserable), culminating with the October 7th MASSACRE, in Israel, babies, woman, children, old people, and many young men and women, boys and girls, getting ready to celebrate their future lives together. As retribution for the October 7th attack on civilization, more than 25,000 Hamas “soldiers” have already been killed. Most of the rest are surrounded and MILITARILY TRAPPED, just waiting for me to give the word, “GO,” for their lives to be quickly extinguished,” Trump wrote.

Laying out his deadline to accept the deal, he added: “RELEASES THE HOSTAGES, ALL OF THEM, INCLUDING THE BODIES OF THOSE THAT ARE DEAD, NOW! An Agreement must be reached with Hamas by Sunday Evening at SIX (6) P.M., Washington, D.C. time. Every Country has signed on! If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas.”

The proposal, unveiled by Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Monday, outlines a 20-point plan that includes an immediate ceasefire, the release of hostages, the disarmament of Hamas, Israeli forces withdrawing in favor of an International Stabilization Force, assurances that no one will be forced to leave Gaza, and the establishment of a Palestinian-led governing committee overseen by a “Board of Peace” including President Trump and former British Prime Minister Sir Tony Blair.

While Israel has agreed to the terms, Hamas has stated it needs additional time to review the details and consult with other Palestinian armed factions. The peace deal has already been rejected by the head of Hamas‘s military wing in Gaza, Izz al-Din al-Haddad.

WATCH: Farage’s Powerful Rallying Cry After Islamic Terror Attack.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Reform Party leader Nigel Farage responded to a radical Islamic terror attack targeting Jews in Manchester, England, yesterday.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Reform Party leader Nigel Farage, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, the governing Labour Party, and British Jews.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The attack was carried out on Thursday, October 2, in Manchester, England; Farage responded on Friday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The scenes of Jewish people being butchered on the streets of Manchester yesterday have shocked many of us deeply to the core.” – Nigel Farage

🎯IMPACT: The Jewish community in Britain is now deeply fearful, with Farage stressing concerns about societal breakdown in the United Kingdom.

IN FULL

Reform Party leader Nigel Farage has responded to the radical Islamic terror attack targeting Jews at a synagogue in Manchester on October 2, perpetrated by Syrian immigrant Jihad al-Shamie. “The scenes of Jewish people being butchered on the streets of Manchester yesterday have shocked many of us deeply to the core,” he said, extending condolences on behalf of his party—but warned that the situation is even worse than it first appears.

“Within hours of this horrific incident, we saw pro-Palestinian flags on the streets in London, Glasgow, and elsewhere, with people demonstrating in what were not planned protests. The truth is, they weren’t demonstrating—they were celebrating,” he said, adding: “I can’t imagine we’ve ever seen such vile scenes on our streets, certainly not in my lifetime.”

Farage criticized the governing Labour Party and senior party figures such as Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, noting that they “emboldened these people by recognizing ‘Palestine’ two weeks ago.”

Notably, a major pro-Palestinian march is still planned in London this weekend, despite calls for it to be canceled or postponed, with Farage describing it as a “hate march.”

“[W]e’re a country that allows peaceful protest, but not one that permits the celebration of murder,” he said, confessing: “I must admit, as I speak to you today, I am more worried about the state of broken Britain than ever before.”

Portland Police Arrest Conservative Journalist Nick Sortor Amid Antifa Violence.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Portland Police arrested conservative journalist Nick Sortor while he was covering a protest at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility involving Antifa-linked anti-ICE agitators.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Nick Sortor, Portland Police, Antifa-linked agitators, and Post Millennial reporter Katie Daviscourt.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The night of October 2, at an ICE facility in Portland.

💬KEY QUOTE: “You thought arresting me would make me shut up and go away. You couldn’t have been more wrong.” – Nick Sortor

🎯IMPACT: The incident has sparked criticism of the Portland Police’s handling of protests and claims of bias.

IN FULL

Portland Police arrested conservative journalist Nick Sortor while he was covering a protest at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility involving Antifa-linked anti-ICE agitators on Tuesday night. Sortor was booked into Multnomah County Jail on disorderly conduct charges.

Post Millennial reporter Katie Daviscourt noted that Sortor was being targeted by Antifa shortly before his arrest. Anti-ICE demonstrators initiated several fights with pro-ICE counter-demonstrators on the night, but observers expressed bemusement that Sortor was targeted by police, with independent journalist Mark Wilson reporting he did not see him involved in any lawbreaking prior to his arrest. Wilson also noted the Portland Police had previously failed to arrest an anti-ICE agitator who assaulted Daviscourt with a metal pole.

Following his release from jail on Friday morning, Sortor issued a statement on social media, warning: “Hey [Portland Police]: you made a big freaking mistake. You PROVED what we’ve all been saying for years: you’re CORRUPT and CONTROLLED by vioIent Antifa thugs who terrorize the streets.”

He continued: “You thought arresting me would make me shut up and go away. You couldn’t have been more wrong. Stay tuned.”

Portland Police and Portland officials have long been accused of at worst enabling and at best turning a blind eye to the regular attacks on federal immigration enforcement in Portland, due to local politicians’ stance against taking action against illegal immigrants. Portland’s government is actively harassing the ICE facility where Sortor was arrested, alleging land use violations.

FBI Cuts Ties with SPLC: ‘Partisan Smear Machine.’

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has officially cut all ties with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Kash Patel, the FBI, and the Southern Poverty Law Center.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Announced on October 3, 2025, via a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter) by Daily Signal senior editor Tyler O’Neil.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The SPLC long ago abandoned civil rights work & turned into a partisan smear machine.” – Kash Patel

🎯IMPACT: The decision follows the FBI severing ties with the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), signaling that the Trump administration intends to detach the federal government from partisan nonprofits pushing far-left agendas.

IN FULL

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), under the leadership of Director Kash Patel, has officially ended its relationship with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). Patel criticized the SPLC for straying from its civil rights mission, stating, “The SPLC long ago abandoned civil rights work & turned into a partisan smear machine.”

Patel particularly stressed the SPLC’s “hate map,” which lists the Turning Point USA (TPUSA) conservative youth organization founded by the late Charlie Kirk alongside the Ku Klux Klan, arguing that it “has been used to defame mainstream Americans and even inspired violence.”

“That disgraceful record makes them unfit for any FBI partnership,” he added.

Leading figures such as Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, Jack Posobiec, and former Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) frontman Elon Musk have long been lobbying for the FBI to cut ties with the SPLC, intensifying their efforts in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, allegedly by radical leftist Tyler Robinson, who explicitly cited the TPUSA chief’s supposed “hatred” as his motivation.

The FBI severing its links to the SPLC follows a similar cutting of ties with the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), which also listed TPUSA in a glossary of “extremist” organizations—but defended the Antifa movement recently designated as a domestic terror threat by President Donald J. Trump as misunderstood and generally non-violent.

“[Former FBI Director] James Comey disgraced the FBI by writing ‘love letters’ to the ADL and embedding agents with an extreme group functioning like a terrorist organization and the disgraceful operation they ran spying on Americans,” Patel said of the ADL decision.

WATCH: UK Police Threaten Christian With Arrest for Street Preaching.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Street preacher Ollie Sabatelli was issued with a “Community Protection Notice” warning him to stop causing “annoyance, upset, and distress” by preaching from the Bible over a speaker system and threatened with arrest in Guildford, England.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Ollie Sabatelli, a preacher known for his social media presence.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Over September and October 2025, in Guildford and Brighton.

💬KEY QUOTE: “You need to listen to me, if you breach this, you can be arrested and you will be arrested.” – Police officer to Ollie Sabatelli.

🎯IMPACT: Sabatelli attempted to circumvent the notice by preaching using only his voice, with no microphone.

IN FULL

Christian street preacher Ollie Sabatelli was issued with a “Community Protection Notice” by police in Guildford, England, to prevent him from preaching in public using a speaker system. Officers alleged the “manner” of his preaching was causing “causing annoyance, upset, and distress,” which is unlawful in the United Kingdom.

Video of the incident shared to social media on October 2, 2025, shows an officer warning Sabatelli, “You need to listen to me, if you breach this, you can be arrested and you will be arrested.”

He accused the preacher of “causing annoyance, upset, and distress” to “the local community and businesses,” citing “the content you are choosing to preach… and the choice of words,” as well as his use of a loudspeaker.

Despite clearly indicating that his words as well as his volume were the issue, the officer backtracked when Sabatelli asked him if he was banned from preaching the word of God, saying it was only the “manner” of his preaching “using a loudspeaker” that was at issue. Sabatelli therefore continued preaching using only his voice.

Sabatelli, who has amassed a significant following, with 91,000 followers on Instagram and 184,000 on TikTok, was previously driven out of Brighton last month for preaching on topics such as homosexuality, which the Bible describes as a sin.
