mRNA COVID Vaccine Found in Breast Milk.

The mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have been found to contaminate breast milk, according to a recent study published in the Lancet Discovery Science journal earlier this week.

The study – to which eight researchers and scientists contributed – asked 13 mothers to provide frozen breast milk samples both before and after mRNA vaccination, which were then analyzed by the researchers.

They found that ten of the 13 women’s breast milk carried traces of the coronavirus vaccine, although those traces were not found to be biologically active. “For lactating mothers receiving the vaccine, our results suggest that the vaccine LNPs will reach the breast tissue,” the researchers explain.

The scientists also note that “limited research has been conducted on the systemic distribution of vaccine mRNA during lactation and whether it is excreted in human breast milk,” suggesting that far more research is necessary to learn the extent of the contamination.

Notably, the results dispel the initial claim that the vaccine stays localized in the arm after vaccination and does not travel systematically throughout the body; on the contrary, the researchers found that mRNA vaccinations can spread from blood to milk.

The COVID-19 vaccines have been similarly found to impact menstruation, with millions of women suffering menstrual disturbances after receiving the jab.

Week-Long NY Immigration Crackdown Nets Criminal Illegals.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in Buffalo, New York, arrested 35 criminal aliens and immigration violators during a weeklong enforcement operation in Central New York.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, criminal aliens, and immigration violators.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The arrests occurred from September 14-19 across Central New York.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Under President Trump’s leadership, we are once again a nation of laws.” – Joseph Freden, Acting Field Office Director, ICE Buffalo ERO.

🎯IMPACT: The operation targeted individuals with violent criminal histories, enhancing public safety in the region.

IN FULL

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in Buffalo, New York, arrested 35 criminal illegal immigrants across Central New York during a weeklong enforcement blitz. The operation, taking place between September 14 and 19, is part of a national effort to restore immigration integrity and remove individuals described as the “worst of the worst” from American communities.

“Despite a historic increase in assaults against ICE law enforcement by violent lunatics, our brave officers remain dedicated to fulfilling their Congressionally mandated mission to enhance public safety by removing criminal illegal aliens from our communities in Western, Central and Upstate New York,” said ICE Buffalo Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) acting Field Office Director Joseph Freden, adding: “Under President Trump’s leadership, we are once again a nation of laws.”

The arrests included individuals with violent criminal histories. Among those detained were Kleber Palacios-Condo, a 27-year-old Ecuadorian with convictions for weapons possession and DUI, and Janson Daniel Chourio-Camejo, a 27-year-old Venezuelan with a record including burglary and robbery. Others arrested included Ivis Orlando Maldonado-Cabrera, a 44-year-old Honduran with a history of robbery, and Jaime Lojano-Villa, a 33-year-old Ecuadorian with a DUI conviction and a final order of removal.

Earlier in September, ICE officers also arrested two violent sex offenders and a convicted murderer. On September 4, Edgar Rene Gonzalez-Gonzalez, a Guatemalan illegal alien convicted of sexual abuse in the sanctuary city of New York, was detained. That same day, ICE arrested Jeffrey Gervacio-Perez, a Mexican illegal alien convicted of rape in Goshen, New York. On September 3, Lao Sihathep, a convicted killer who had been ordered removed from the U.S. over 25 years ago, was also apprehended and now faces deportation to Laos.

ICE officials emphasized that their mission prioritizes public safety and national security threats. They stated, “Any individual illegally present in the United States who is encountered during an immigration enforcement operation may be taken into custody and processed for removal as stated by law. It comes down to one question: Is this person violating our nation’s immigration laws? If the answer is yes, we’re going to remove them.”

STUDY: 2025 Sees Surge in Left-Wing Terror, Linked to Anti-Trump Sentiment.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: A new study reveals left-wing terror attacks are on pace to reach a three-decade high, with five incidents already recorded in the first half of 2025—before high-profile incidents such as Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s assassination and this week’s anti-ICE sniper attack in Dallas, Texas.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS) conducted the study.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The study analyzed incidents between January 1, 1994, and July 4, 2025, across the United States, with recent attacks in Dallas, New York City, and Utah.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The celebrations among some on the left of Luigi Mangione is a failure to undermine support for left-wing violence,” the study notes.

🎯IMPACT: Left-wing violence is surpassing right-wing violence for the first time in three decades, raising concerns about growing political leftist extremism.

IN FULL

Leftist ideology-inspired terrorist attacks are set to reach a record high, according to new analysis published by the Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS). The Washington, D.C.-based think tank’s study found that violent plots planned or perpetrated by the far left in the United States hit a record high in the first half of 2025 and are on pace to reach a three-decade high.

Notably, the second half of 2025 has already seen high-profile incidents such as the assassination of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk, and a sniper attack on a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility earlier this week.

Between January 1, 1994, and July 4, 2025, CSIS researchers analyzed a dataset of terrorist attacks and plots in the U.S. Through July 4, there were five left-wing attacks or plots this year, over eight times the annual average from 1995 to 2000.

The study indicates that left-wing violence has surged since President Donald J. Trump first became President-elect in 2016, often motivated by left-wing partisan extremism and anti-Trump rhetoric. “All left-wing attacks through July 4, 2025, appeared to be motivated by one of these ideologies,” the researchers noted, citing the assassination of Charlie Kirk as an example. Tyler Robinson, Kirk’s alleged murderer, wrote “Hey fascist, catch!” on a shell casing before the attack.

The study also highlighted the murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, allegedly carried out by Luigi Mangione. “The celebrations among some on the left of Luigi Mangione is a failure to undermine support for left-wing violence,” the study stated.

The rise in left-wing violence is attributed to opposition to the Trump administration and its policies, with immigration emerging as a key issue, as seen in the Dallas ICE facility attack.

FBI Admits 275 Plainclothes Agents Embedded in Jan. 6 Crowd.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) disclosed the presence of 275 plainclothes agents in the crowds on Jan. 6, 2021, after years of refusing to be transparent.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: FBI agents, confidential human sources, and other federal personnel, including tactical teams from the FBI, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF), and U.S. Marshals Service.

📍WHEN & WHERE: January 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C, with the plainclothes revelation made on September 25, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “With that many paid informants being in the crowd, we want to know how many were in the crowd, how many were in the building, but I also want to know, were they paid to inform or instigate?” – Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA)

🎯IMPACT: The disclosure raises further questions about the FBI’s role and potential involvement in the events of January 6.

IN FULL

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has admitted that 275 plainclothes agents were present in the crowds on January 6, 2021, years after concerns about the agency’s potential involvement were first raised. This acknowledgment follows a December 2024 report by the Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of Inspector General (OIG), which stated that there was no evidence of “undercover” FBI employees in the protest crowds or at the Capitol that day.

The OIG report also noted that 26 FBI confidential human sources were present on January 6, with four entering the Capitol. However, the report claimed that none of these informants were directed to break the law, enter restricted areas, or incite illegal activities.

Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA), chairman of the House January 6 Select Subcommittee, has voiced his intent to investigate the FBI’s presence further. “With that many paid informants being in the crowd, we want to know how many were in the crowd, how many were in the building, but I also want to know, were they paid to inform or instigate?” Loudermilk questioned during a recent interview.

The disclosure also comes amid revelations about undercover Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers who admitted to inciting the crowd by encouraging protesters to climb barriers and applauding acts of vandalism. Much of the video footage recorded by these officers has not been released, despite legal efforts to obtain it.

FBI tactical teams were also deployed to the Capitol on January 6, assisting in clearing the building after the fatal shooting of unarmed protester Ashli Babbitt. The involvement of other federal agencies, including the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) and the U.S. Marshals Service, further underscores the significant federal presence that day.

Trump Promises Share of Tariff Revenue to Farmers.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump announced plans to use tariff revenue for cash bailouts to support struggling farmers.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald Trump, House Agriculture Chairman G.T. Thompson, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, and agricultural lobbying groups.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Announced on Thursday, September 25, 2025, in the Oval Office.

💬KEY QUOTE: “We’re going to take some of that tariff money that we made, we’re going to give it to our farmers, who are, for a little while, going to be hurt until the tariffs kick into their benefit.” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: The plan aims to alleviate economic pressure on farmers, though it may face legal challenges if the Supreme Court rules against Trump’s tariffs.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump has announced a new plan to direct a share of tariff revenues toward financial relief for American farmers facing mounting economic pressure. Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump said, “We’re going to take some of that tariff money that we made, we’re going to give it to our farmers, who are, for a little while, going to be hurt until the tariffs kick in to their benefit.”

The proposal comes as some U.S. farmers face serious economic strain, particularly those producing key exports like corn and soybeans. Many in the agricultural sector have been hit hard by shifting trade dynamics and delays in new market access. The White House has reportedly been weighing an aid package for several weeks in response to growing concerns from the agriculture industry.

Support for the initiative has surfaced among Republican leadership, including House Agriculture Chair G.T. Thompson and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, both of whom have voiced approval for utilizing tariff revenue to support struggling farmers directly. However, the plan may face legal complications if the Supreme Court challenges the validity of the tariffs that generated the funds.

Despite this uncertainty, the financial foundation for the plan appears strong. According to Treasury Department data, U.S. tariff collections reached a record $31 billion in August 2025 alone. Total revenue from tariffs so far this year has exceeded $183 billion, a dramatic increase that supporters argue provides the government with ample resources for targeted relief efforts. Recent reporting has also noted that, contrary to earlier media predictions, Trump’s tariffs have increased federal revenue without significantly impacting consumer prices.

The farming community itself has largely remained supportive of Trump’s tariff approach. In May, large groups of farmers gathered in rallies backing the America First leader’s trade strategy, expressing confidence that the short-term pain caused by retaliatory tariffs would be outweighed by long-term benefits. Many attendees emphasized their belief that the administration’s stance would ultimately lead to more favorable trade terms and a stronger domestic agriculture sector.

Agriculture lobbying groups and lawmakers from rural districts have been urging the administration to act quickly, stressing the urgency of relief as farmers await new international trade agreements.

Ex French Prez Sentenced to Prison!

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy was sentenced to five years in prison for crimes connected to Libyan financing of his 2007 campaign.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Nicolas Sarkozy, former French President, and the French judiciary.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The sentencing occurred on September 25 in France.

💬KEY QUOTE: “If they absolutely want me to sleep in prison, I will sleep in prison, but with my head held high.” – Nicolas Sarkozy.

🎯IMPACT: Sarkozy’s conviction has shocked observers and raises significant questions about political financing and corruption in the European Union (EU).

IN FULL

Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy has been sentenced to five years in prison by a Paris court after being found guilty of crimes connected to illegal campaign financing from Libya. The court ruled that Sarkozy conspired to secure funds from the late Muammar Gaddafi’s regime for his 2007 presidential campaign.

While he was acquitted of several more serious charges, including passive corruption and illegal campaign financing, the court determined there was enough evidence to convict him for enabling others to act on his behalf in the scheme.

The court ordered that Sarkozy, 70, must begin serving his sentence immediately, despite plans to appeal. This breaks from typical French judicial practice, where appeals often delay enforcement. Prosecutors had sought a seven-year sentence, arguing that Sarkozy’s actions undermined French democracy.

Though there was no direct proof that Libyan funds entered his campaign, the court found that Sarkozy “knowingly allowed a fraudulent system to develop.” Sarkozy denounced the decision, calling it “a scandal” and insisting on his innocence. “If they absolutely want me to sleep in prison, I will sleep in prison, but with my head held high,” he said. “Those who hate me so much think they can humiliate me. What they have humiliated today is France, the image of France.”

Sarkozy has faced several legal battles in recent years, including a conviction for influence-peddling in 2021 and a separate conviction for campaign overspending in 2022. Despite these setbacks, he has remained influential in French politics and media. In 2023, he sparked debate by stating that the idea of the “Great Replacement,” a theory that suggests native populations are being replaced by immigration, is “not a far-right idea.” He argued that concerns about demographic change should not be dismissed simply because of their political origins.

The sentencing comes amid a wave of legal action against prominent right-wing political figures in France. Earlier this year, Marine Le Pen of the populist National Rally was dubiously convicted of embezzling European Parliament funds and banned from holding public office for five years. She received a four-year prison sentence, with two years suspended, and a €100,000 fine.

Le Pen described the case as politically motivated lawfare designed to eliminate her from the 2027 presidential race. “Millions of French people are outraged,” she said. “The rule of law has been totally violated by this decision.”

Trump Admin Partners With Musk’s Grok AI.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Elon Musk’s xAI signed a deal with the General Services Administration (GSA) to integrate its Grok AI chatbot with federal agencies.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Elon Musk, xAI, the GSA, and Federal Acquisition Service Commissioner Josh Gruenbaum.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The agreement was recently announced, with implementation expected across U.S. federal agencies.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Thanks to President Trump and his administration, xAI’s frontier AI is now unlocked for every federal agency empowering the U.S. Government to innovate faster and accomplish its mission more effectively than ever before.” – Elon Musk.

🎯IMPACT: The partnership could enhance government efficiency but may also raise concerns among Musk’s political opponents regarding his influence in federal operations.

IN FULL

Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence (AI) company, xAI, has entered into a partnership with the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) to provide its Grok chatbot for use across federal agencies. The deal is being promoted as a step toward modernizing government services through advanced AI tools, and it will make xAI’s latest Grok models available to agencies through March 2027.

Musk said, xAI has the “most capable AI models in the world.” He credited President Donald J. Trump for laying the groundwork for this partnership, stating, “Thanks to President Trump and his administration, xAI’s frontier AI is now unlocked for every federal agency empowering the U.S. Government to innovate faster and accomplish its mission more effectively than ever before.”

Federal Acquisition Service Commissioner Josh Gruenbaum praised the move, calling it essential to government modernization. “Widespread access to advanced AI models is essential to building the efficient, accountable government that taxpayers deserve.”

However, the move is not without controversy, with Grok recently referring to itself as “MechaHitler” and writing fiction about violently sodomizing online liberal personality Will Stancil. A study also found that, in more normal circumstances, Grok, like other large language models, tends to lean left politically, raising questions about potential bias in federally deployed AI tools.

This development places xAI alongside other major AI providers like OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and Meta, all of whom are part of the federal government’s list of approved AI vendors. It also aligns with GSA’s OneGov strategy, which aims to streamline technology acquisition across government agencies.

BREAKING: Ex FBI Director James Comey Finally Indicted.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted on two counts: making false statements (perjury) and obstruction of justice.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: James Comey, President Donald Trump, and others.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Indictment followed recent events in the Eastern District of Virginia.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Pam Bondi is doing a GREAT job as Attorney General of the United States…but needs a tough prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia, like my recommendation, Lindsey Halligan, to get things moving.” – Donald Trump, earlier this week.

🎯IMPACT: The charges represent a significant escalation in breaking the deep state.

IN FULL

Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted on two counts: making false statements and obstruction of justice. This development comes after President Donald Trump publicly called for prosecutions against Comey and others, urging the Justice Department to act “now.”

The charges follow Trump’s dismissal of Erik Siebert, the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, who reportedly had reservations about pursuing cases against Comey. Trump replaced Siebert with Lindsey Halligan, a White House aide and his former defense attorney.

In June 2023, Comey expressed fear of a Trump return, telling the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) he found the notion “deeply chilling, because he will be the ‘retribution president’… smarter than he was last time.”

The case against Comey could become a pivotal test for both the Justice Department and the federal judiciary, with far-reaching implications for the intersection of politics and law enforcement.

Russian Official Issues Nuclear Threat to Trump’s America.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Dmitry Medvedev, a high-ranking Kremlin official and former President of Russia, issued a nuclear threat to the U.S. following comments by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky about targeting Russian infrastructure with American-supplied weaponry.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Dmitry Medvedev, Volodymyr Zelensky, President Donald J. Trump, NATO allies, and Russian officials.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Comments were made amid ongoing tensions in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, with updates shared during the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

💬KEY QUOTE: “What the freak needs to know is that Russia can use weapons a bomb shelter won’t protect against. Americans should also keep this in mind.” – Dmitry Medvedev

🎯IMPACT: Escalating tensions between NATO and Russia increase risks of a direct confrontation, with both sides armed with nuclear weapons.

IN FULL

Kremlin official Dmitry Medvedev, a former President of Russia, has issued a stark warning to the United States, saying Russia possesses weapons that “a bomb shelter won’t protect against,” after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky suggested that Moscow officials should prepare to take cover if they continue their war in Ukraine.

In a recent interview, Zelensky said President Donald J. Trump had explicitly backed Ukrainian strikes on Russian targets, including arms factories and energy infrastructure. He added that if Ukraine “receives more long-range American weaponry, then we will use it.”

Medvedev, the deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council and a former Russian president and prime minister, responded on the social media platform X, writing, “The Kiev drug addict said the Kremlin should know where a bomb shelter is so its occupants can hide when he uses long‑range American weapons. What the freak needs to know is that Russia can use weapons a bomb shelter won’t protect against. Americans should also keep this in mind.”

Tensions between Moscow and NATO have intensified, as both sides possess large nuclear arsenals and increasingly view each other as direct threats. NATO members have accused Russia of breaching their airspace, with Poland recently shooting down a dozen Russian drones that entered its airspace.

Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, Trump urged NATO countries to continue defending their airspace and expressed confidence in Ukraine’s ability to reclaim lost territory. On Truth Social, he wrote, “Russia has been fighting aimlessly for three and a half years, a War that should have taken a Real Military Power less than a week to win. Ukraine would be able to take back their Country in its original form and, who knows, maybe even go further than that!”

Medvedev has a history of incendiary remarks concerning Ukraine. In March 2024, he published a map showing Ukraine reduced to a small area around Kiev, claiming “Ukraine is definitely Russia.” In August 2025, his nuclear rhetoric prompted a sharp U.S. response, with the Trump administration reportedly deploying nuclear submarines in reaction to what it called his “foolish and inflammatory” comments.

Trump Directs Feds to Tackle Far-Left Domestic Extremists and Their Funders.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump announced on Thursday that he is signing an Executive Order directing federal law enforcement and counter-terrorism agencies to coordinate against rising threats posed by domestic political extremists.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Trump, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, federal law enforcement, federal counter-terrorism agencies, and far-left organizations like Antifa.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Thursday, September 25, 2025, in the Oval Office.

💬KEY QUOTE: “These are professional agitators, these are bad people, and they’re paid a lot of money by rich people, some of whom we know,” President Trump said after signing the order, adding: “[George] Soros is a name that I hear… Maybe I hear about a guy named Reid Hoffman.”

🎯IMPACT: The directive aims to dismantle the funding and recruiting apparatuses behind anarchist and far-left groups like Antifa, which have fueled a deadly escalation in political violence over recent months.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump announced on Thursday that he is signing an Executive Order directing federal law enforcement and counter-terrorism agencies to coordinate against rising threats posed by domestic political extremists. The directive aims to dismantle the funding and recruiting apparatuses behind anarchist and far-left groups like Antifa, which have fueled a deadly escalation in political violence over recent months.

These are professional agitators, these are bad people, and they’re paid a lot of money by rich people, some of whom we know,” President Trump said after signing the order, adding: “[George] Soros is a name that I hear… Maybe I hear about a guy named Reid Hoffman.” 

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller hailed the move as bringing the “entire force of the federal government to uproot these organizations root and branch,” while Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel emphasized federal law enforcement will “follow the money.”

Addressing both violent crime and political violence has emerged as a top priority of the Trump administration following months of violent riots targeting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents conducting enforcement actions. The violence, however, escalated in recent weeks with the targeted assassination of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk, allegedly by 22-year-old Utah leftist Tyler Robinson. That act was followed by 29-year-old leftist Joshua Jahns opening fire on an ICE field office in Dallas, Texas, on Wednesday.

For several months, Antifa members and other far-left activists—with the backing of local Democrat lawmakers—have essentially laid siege to an ICE detention facility in Portland, Oregon, with local police being directed not to intervene. In response to Antifa’s increasingly violent acts, President Trump declared the far-left group a domestic terrorist organization.
