FDA Official Who Stabbed Trump Voodoo Doll Resigns.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Dr. Vinay Prasad, a top Food and Drug Administration (FDA) official appointed during President Donald J. Trump’s administration, has resigned less than three months into his tenure after it was revealed he had made numerous anti-Trump comments including claims he stabbed a voodoo doll to “curse” the America First leader.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Dr. Vinay Prasad, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, Laura Loomer, and former Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA).

📍WHEN & WHERE: Prasad’s resignation was announced less than three months after his appointment in May 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Dr. Prasad did not want to be a distraction to the great work of the FDA in the Trump administration and has decided to return to California and spend more time with his family.” – HHS spokesman.

🎯IMPACT: Prasad’s resignation highlights internal tensions within the FDA and debates over its handling of emerging therapies and pandemic-era policies.

IN FULL

Dr. Vinay Prasad, a hematologist-oncologist and critic of the pharmaceutical industry, has stepped down from his position as head of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research. Prasad, who was also the FDA’s chief medical and scientific officer, served in the role for less than three months after being appointed in May 2025.

The National Pulse reported on Tuesday that Dr. Prasad has a long history of making anti-Trump comments, including claims he stabbed a voodoo doll to “curse” the America First leader. Additionally, he has opposed key Trump administration policies like the Right to Try Act—championed by the President to expand treatment options for terminally ill patients.

“Dr. Prasad did not want to be a distraction to the great work of the FDA in the Trump administration and has decided to return to California and spend more time with his family,” a spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) said. Notably, Prasad was the subject of intense scrutiny from investigative journalist Laura Loomer, who exposed a number of his anti-Trump comments and social media posts.

Joining Loomer in criticizing Prasad’s appointment was former Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA), who echoed the criticisms, calling Prasad “the man destroying President Donald Trump’s legacy for helping patients.”

However, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary defended Prasad, describing him as an “impeccable scientist” and “one of the greatest scientific minds of our generation.”

Trump Secures Arctic Security Agreement With Greenland and Denmark, Two New Bases Planned.

The U.S., Denmark, and Greenland have signed a landmark agreement allowing for expanded American military operations and facilities on the Arctic island, solidifying its strategic importance.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The U.S., Denmark, and Greenland signed an agreement allowing the U.S. to expand its military operations and facilities in Greenland, including establishing new defense areas and modernizing the Pituffik Space Base. The agreement was finalized during the UN General Assembly.
📍 WHEN & WHERE: The agreement was signed on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in Manhattan on Tuesday by President Donald Trump, Greenland Premier Jens-Frederik Nielsen, and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.
📺 DETAIL: The agreement permits the U.S. to establish new defense areas in Narsarsuaq and Mestersvig, modernize existing facilities, and block non-NATO nations from setting up bases in Greenland without approval. The deal is indefinite and remains valid even if Greenland gains independence from Denmark. This move follows the Trump administration’s long-standing focus on Greenland’s strategic location between the U.S., Russia, and China.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “As I announced just days ago, the U.S. has also reached an unprecedented agreement regarding the Northern Frontier of North America—the large and strategically vital piece of land known as Greenland. This agreement… gives the United States permanent control over security and all other needs on that territory. We will have the complete ability to do what is necessary to defend the American continent.” – President Trump
🎯 IMPACT: The agreement strengthens U.S. defense capabilities in the Arctic region, ensuring greater security against potential threats from Russia and China. It also underscores Greenland’s growing importance in global geopolitics and secures long-term cooperation with Denmark.

JD Vance Ousts 750K from Obamacare for Suspected Fraud, Reviewing 450K More.

The Trump administration has taken significant measures to combat fraud in Obamacare, removing 750,000 enrollees and saving taxpayers billions.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The Trump administration has removed 750,000 people from Obamacare due to suspected fraudulent enrollment, saving an estimated $2.2 billion. Additionally, 450,000 more enrollees are under review for potential irregularities.
👤 WHO WAS INVOLVED: Vice President JD Vance, the chairman of the Trump administration’s anti-fraud task force, and Dr. Mehmet Oz, head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, announced and explained the measures.
📍 WHEN & WHERE: The announcement was made on Tuesday at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, adjacent to the White House.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “We are stopping Obamacare enrollment for about 750,000 people who we believe are fraudulently enrolled in the program. Those 750,000 people are people that we feel confident either don’t know that they’re enrolled in the program, aren’t using the program at all, are unaware of it, or… are potentially phantom people.” – Vice President Vance
🎯 IMPACT: The removal of these enrollees reduces the burden on taxpayers while addressing systemic vulnerabilities in the Obamacare program. The administration has also imposed a six-month moratorium on new brokers and agents enrolling customers to prevent further fraud.
📰 DETAIL: Vance explained that many of the removed enrollees were either unaware of their enrollment, not using the program, or entirely fictitious entities created to defraud taxpayers. Dr. Oz emphasized the importance of identifying and removing fraudulent participants, noting that the administration had exhausted efforts to contact these individuals without success. The administration is also reviewing 450,000 enrollees whose cases show irregularities but do not meet the threshold for immediate removal.
📺 FLASHBACK: President Trump has consistently criticized Obamacare and vowed to dismantle it, calling it a costly and inefficient program.

Canadian Euthanasia Deaths Surpass U.S. Gun Homicides Annually.

Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) program recorded more deaths in 2024 than U.S. gun homicides, raising ethical and societal concerns about the program’s rapid expansion.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Canada’s medical assistance in dying (MAID) program accounted for more deaths in 2024 than gun homicides in the United States, despite the U.S. having roughly eight times Canada’s population. Health Canada reported that 16,499 people received MAID in 2024, compared with 15,364 people killed by firearms in the U.S., according to Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions.
📺 DETAIL: MAID killings were 1,135 ahead of the number of U.S. firearm homicides. MAID deaths reached a record high in 2024 and represented about five percent of all deaths in Canada, or roughly one in 20. Canada initially restricted MAID to people whose deaths were reasonably foreseeable when the program was legalized in 2016, but eligibility was expanded in 2021 to include people with serious conditions whose deaths were not reasonably foreseeable. The program remains the subject of debate over further expansion, including whether MAID should eventually be available to people whose sole underlying condition is a mental illness, a change currently delayed until 2027. Critics have also raised concerns over individual cases and proposals regarding the scope of eligibility, fueling broader debate over safeguards for vulnerable Canadians.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “State-administered death is now more common in Canada than gun homicide is in the U.S. That didn’t happen by accident.” – Senator Mike Lee
🎯 IMPACT: The scale of Canada’s MAID program is likely to intensify debate over the country’s approach to assisted suicide, particularly as lawmakers consider whether eligibility should expand further. The figures are also likely to fuel scrutiny of safeguards and the circumstances under which Canadians can access MAID, especially for people with disabilities or other vulnerabilities.

Court Convicts 15 in Connection with Easter Church Bombings.

Fifteen men have been convicted in Sri Lanka for their roles in the 2019 Easter Sunday bombings targeting Christians and tourists, marking a significant step toward justice for one of the country’s deadliest terror attacks.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Sri Lanka’s High Court has convicted 15 men over their alleged roles in plotting the 2019 Easter Sunday bombings that killed 270 people, including five U.S. citizens, and wounded more than 500. Among those convicted was Naufer Moulavi, whom prosecutors identified as a mastermind of the coordinated suicide attacks, while nine other defendants were acquitted.
📺 DETAIL: The bombings targeted three churches and three luxury hotels and marked the deadliest attacks in Sri Lanka since the country’s civil war ended in 2009, with 45 foreigners among those killed. All of the suicide bombers died in the explosions, while investigators have previously linked the attacks to Islamist extremists. The 25 men originally indicted were members of Sri Lanka’s Muslim minority, with one dying in custody, and the defendants faced more than 23,000 charges. The court postponed sentencing after the verdict. The case has also renewed scrutiny of alleged intelligence failures, after authorities admitted that a warning from India about a possible attack was not properly shared, while a separate investigation is examining allegations that former intelligence chief Suresh Sallay helped orchestrate the bombings. Sallay, who denies the allegations, was arrested in February. Former President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has also denied claims that the attacks were deliberately allowed to occur to boost his family’s political fortunes.
🎯 IMPACT: The convictions mark a significant step in Sri Lanka’s long-running effort to hold those responsible for the 2019 Easter Sunday bombings accountable, although questions remain over alleged intelligence failures and possible involvement by senior officials. The separate investigation into former intelligence chief Suresh Sallay and allegations involving the Rajapaksa family could keep the attacks at the center of Sri Lanka’s political and security debate.
📺 FLASHBACK: The Easter Sunday bombings were attributed to Islamist extremists. Widespread protests and demands for justice have persisted since the attacks, with citizens seeking accountability from both perpetrators and government officials.

Ukraine Has Struck ‘American-Linked’ Ships and Oil Supplies: Rubio.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio revealed that U.S.-linked oil infrastructure is being caught in Ukrainian strikes amid the ongoing conflict with Russia.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday that American-linked oil infrastructure has been targeted by Ukraine in recent months amid its war with Russia, although he added that the strikes were “probably” not deliberate. Rubio said the incidents were among Washington’s concerns as the conflict threatens to pull U.S. interests into the fighting.
📺 DETAIL: Rubio linked recent increases in oil prices to fighting between Russia and Ukraine in the Black Sea, as well as the conflict involving Iran-backed Houthi militants in Yemen. It was not immediately clear which specific incidents Rubio was referring to, although Ukraine has carried out strikes on the Russian Black Sea port of Novorossiysk, which hosts export facilities for the Caspian Pipeline Consortium. The consortium counts U.S. energy companies Chevron and ExxonMobil among its major shareholders. Rubio’s comments came ahead of a scheduled meeting between President Donald J. Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the United Nations General Assembly, with Rubio saying Washington supports a proposed ceasefire covering energy infrastructure on both sides. Rubio said halting attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure and Russian energy producers would be an “ideal outcome.”
💬 KEY QUOTE: “American-linked ships, American oil supplies have been targeted, probably not deliberately, but targeted nonetheless by Ukraine. And so that’s something that needs to be addressed.” – Marco Rubio
🎯 IMPACT: The remarks underscore Washington’s concern that the Russia-Ukraine conflict could affect U.S. energy interests and contribute to higher global oil prices. Support for an energy infrastructure ceasefire could give the Trump administration another avenue for reducing risks to global energy supplies while limiting the potential for American-linked assets to be caught in the fighting in Eastern Europe.

DATA: One-Third of Democrats Would Feel Positive About Trump Being Assassinated.

A new poll shows troubling attitudes towards political violence among Democrat voters, with significant support for President Trump’s assassination.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A new poll found that significant numbers of Democrat voters expressed positive reactions to various scenarios that would remove President Donald J. Trump from office, including some involving his death or a military takeover of the government. According to the Center for Strategic Politics survey, 59 percent of Democratic respondents said they would feel “very positive” or “somewhat positive” if a military junta overthrew Trump and seized control of the government, while 55 percent said they would react positively to news that Trump had died peacefully. The poll also found that 32 percent of Democratic respondents would feel positive if Trump was assassinated at a rally, compared with 43 percent who said they would react negatively and 25 percent who would be neutral.
📺 DETAIL: Support was higher for constitutional or political means of removing Trump, with 87 percent saying they would react positively to impeachment and removal, and 84 percent saying the same about removal under the 25th Amendment. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has left open the possibility of another impeachment effort, saying earlier this month that Democrats had “not ruled anything in and… not ruled anything out” and would “follow the facts.” The survey further found that large majorities of Democrats support prosecuting Trump administration officials over immigration enforcement, the war in Iran, and strikes against suspected drug traffickers. Other proposals receiving majority support included prosecuting Trump and Biden government officials over the Israel-Hamas war, ending the Senate filibuster, and expanding the Supreme Court. Among potential 2028 Democratic presidential contenders, Kamala Harris led with 25 percent, followed by Gavin Newsom at 15 percent, Pete Buttigieg at 13 percent, Jon Ossoff at 10 percent, Mark Kelly at nine percent, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at eight percent. The poll surveyed 683 Democratic voters on September 3 and from September 8-10, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.75 percentage points.
🎯 IMPACT: The poll highlights the intensity of Democratic opposition to President Donald J. Trump, with substantial portions of respondents expressing support for extraordinary measures, including death or a military coup, to remove him from office. The findings could fuel debate over political polarization and left-wing extremism ahead of the midterm elections.
📺 FLASHBACK: The poll follows multiple assassination attempts on Trump during his 2024 candidacy and presidency, including a shooting in Butler where a gunman hit his ear and killed one of his supporters, Corey Comperatore.

Mamdani Again Calls for Netanyahu’s Arrest in NYC.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has urged the U.S. to enforce an International Criminal Court warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as he visits Manhattan to attend the United Nations General Assembly.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) has renewed his call for the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he travels to New York City this week for the United Nations General Assembly. Mamdani, a Democratic socialist and Muslim immigrant, has repeatedly backed the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant for Netanyahu and argued that the United States should enforce it, despite Washington not being a party to the Rome Statute that created the court.
📺 DETAIL: The ICC issued warrants for Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in 2024, accusing them of war crimes and crimes against humanity related to Israel’s military campaign in Gaza following the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks on the Jewish State. Netanyahu has rejected the allegations as false and absurd. Mamdani has previously shown support for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, and used of the phrase “globalize the intifada.” More recently, controversy has surrounded Mamdani’s wife, Rama Duwaji, over social media activity involving posts celebrating Hamas’s October 7 attack.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “If the International Criminal Court deems someone worthy of an arrest because of a violation of those laws, then who are we to say that anyone should be above that?” – Zohran Mamdani
🎯 IMPACT: Mamdani’s renewed demand puts his opposition to Netanyahu and Israel’s Gaza campaign back at the center of New York’s political debate as the UN General Assembly begins, while highlighting the sharp divide between City Hall and the federal government over the ICC warrant.

Trump Trashes Britain’s ‘Terrible’ Deal to Give Away Strategic Chagos Islands in First Meeting with New UK PM.

President Donald J. Trump denounced the deal the British government has made to give away the strategically important Chagos Islands during his first meeting with newly installed Prime Minister Andy Burnham.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump derided the decision of Britain’s Labour Party government to surrender the strategic Chagos Islands, which host a British-American military base, in his first meeting with Britain’s new Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, at the United Nations General Assembly in Manhattan on Tuesday.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “I don’t support it. It’s terrible. It was a terrible deal. All of a sudden [Mauritius] say they have ownership… after decades and centuries, I think it’s ridiculous. No. We were talking about that. It’s strategically very important. Very important… It’s amazing how strategic it is, and I think the Prime Minister’s going to be looking at it.” – President Trump, responding to a press question about the Chagos Islands deal during his meeting with Prime Minister Burnham
📰 DETAIL: One of the Chagos Islands, Diego Garcia, hosts important U.S. military assets, at a strategic location near the center of the Indian Ocean. Prime Minister Andy Burnham indicated to Mauritius earlier in the week that he intended to proceed with the transfer, agreed by his predecessor Sir Keir Starmer, but he nodded “Mmm, yeah,” when Trump suggested the British leader would now be reexamining the deal.
🎯 IMPACT: The Chagos deal has raised concerns about the strategic implications for the British-American naval and air presence in the Indian Ocean. The British government has negotiated to continue leasing Diego Garcia—which it currently owns outright for free—from the Mauritians, but this deal could be altered by future Mauritian governments. Mauritius could also render Diego Garcia far less useful by leasing another nearby island to a U.S. adversary such as China, removing the privacy and security essential to its operation.

Trump Blasts UN Globalists for ‘Destroying the Greatest Cultures and Heritage’ in History Through Mass Migration.

President Donald J. Trump delivered a forceful speech at the United Nations General Assembly, condemning globalist policies and defending national sovereignty.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump addressed the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, criticizing the institution for promoting globalist agendas and interfering with national sovereignty. He highlighted his administration’s efforts to cut the UN budget, oppose global taxation, and reject overreach by bodies such as the International Criminal Court (ICC), and took aim at the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) for “actively destroying the greatest cultures and most extraordinary heritage in all of history” through its “ceaseless promotion of mass migration.”
📺 DETAIL: Trump touted reforms led by Ambassador Michael Waltz, including a 15 percent budget reduction for the UN in 2026 and the elimination of over 4,000 bureaucratic positions. He denounced the International Maritime Organization’s attempt to impose a global carbon tax and criticized the ICC as an “anti-American tribunal,” urging other countries to leave it. Additionally, Trump rebuked the UN Human Rights Council as “craven hypocrites” for attacking U.S. policies while having “little to say about the persecution of Christians.”
💬 KEY QUOTE: “It is deeply ironic that the United Nations has an entire institution, UNESCO, a group of people and countries devoted to protecting cultural heritage, yet with their ceaseless promotion of mass migration, these globalists are actively destroying the greatest cultures and most extraordinary heritage in all of history. There is no human right to illegal immigration, but there is a right to remain a sovereign nation, and we want to remain a sovereign nation, and so should you.” – President Trump
🎯 IMPACT: Trump’s speech reaffirms his administration’s stance on prioritizing national sovereignty over global governance. His criticism of the UN’s globalist policies and defense of U.S. interests will resonate with his supporters, but coverage of the speech is likely to focus on more eye-catching comments about potentially annihilating the Iranian regime.

Trump Threatens to ‘Annihilate’ Iranian Regime in UN Address.

President Trump detailed Iran’s violations of ceasefires and ongoing aggression, emphasizing the possibility of either a historic deal or crushing U.S. military action.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump told the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) that he is considering whether to “annihilate” the Iranian regime in an address on Tuesday, highlighting Iran’s continued aggression and violations of ceasefires.
📺 DETAIL: Trump recounted Iran’s history of atrocities, including its recent attacks on commercial ships in and around the Strait of Hormuz, and praised the United Nations Security Council for passing a resolution condemning Iran’s actions in the waterway. He also highlighted the U.S. Navy’s role in securing oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, insisting that this mission is bringing stability to the global oil market. He warned decisive military action against the Islamic Republic would inflict generational devastation, but predicted a deal after November is the more likely outcome, with the Iranians currently “waiting to see how I do in the midterm election.”
💬 KEY QUOTE: “I have a big decision to make: Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever was before—maybe one of the greatest in the Middle East, or even the world? Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic, and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again? Do I drive them into Hell, with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness for generations?” – President Trump
🎯 IMPACT: Trump’s remarks underline the high stakes of the Iran war, with potential global economic and security implications depending on the path chosen by Washington and Tehran.
