Obscene, Naked Trump Statue Hanged from a Crane Near Las Vegas.

An obscene, 43-foot nude statue of former President Donald J. Trump appeared hanging from a crane off Interstate 15, north of Las Vegas, Nevada, on Saturday. The grotesque statue, complete with genitals, is made from approximately 6,000 pounds of foam-covered metal rebar.

The currently unidentified creators describe the effigy as “a bold statement on transparency, vulnerability, and the public personas of political figures,” claiming they hope it will start conversations around “transparency—or lack thereof—in politics, challenging viewers to think critically about political influence.”

In 2016, during his first presidential campaign, five naked Trump statues appeared in cities including New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Cleveland, and Seattle as part of a project titled ‘The Emperor Has No Balls’ by the activist art collective Indecline. As of publication, Indecline had neither confirmed nor denied involvement in the Las Vegas stunt.

Some social media users argue the effigy, which shows the subject’s head listing to the side as though hanged from the neck, may inspire violence against the former president, who recently survived two assassination attempts and is still under threat. Others argue that if a similar nude, misshapen effigy of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris were hanged from a crane near a major city, the Democrats and the corporate media would be furious and probably pursue criminal charges.

Polls show that 28 percent of Democrats wish one of Trump’s would-be assassins had killed him.

Reports say the statue will tour multiple cities, but specific dates and locations for its future appearances are unknown.

FBI Ordered to Pay Millions in Taxpayer Dollars to Settle Sexual Harassment Claims.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is agreeing to pay out more than $22 million in taxpayer dollars following a class-action lawsuit by female recruits who allege harassment and discrimination during training. The lawsuit, initially filed in 2019, claims that women undergoing training at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia, faced sexually charged remarks and false accusations, among other forms of harassment from their instructors.

The settlement, which will require federal judicial approval, involves compensation for 34 women dismissed from the academy. If approved, it will be one of the largest settlements in the FBI’s history related to such allegations.

David J. Shaffer, representing the plaintiffs, alleges that harassment and verbal abuse are deeply ingrained in the culture of the bureau and its training academy.

The lawsuit claims that female recruits were harshly evaluated compared to male colleagues and were unfairly targeted for dismissal based on subjective criteria. One woman cited in the lawsuit reported being told to “smile more,” while another accused an instructor of making lewd gestures.

A 2022 internal watchdog report confirmed many claims in the lawsuit, including fostering a “Good Old Boy Network” that allowed discriminatory behaviors to persist unchecked. Part of the settlement terms includes offering the women an opportunity to re-enter FBI training and guaranteeing placement in preferred offices for those who qualify. Additionally, the bureau has agreed to an external review to ensure fair evaluation processes for female recruits.

The lawsuit is the latest blow to the federal law enforcement agency, which has been plagued by accusations of sexual harassment for decades. Even more concerning, the FBI was accused earlier this year by the Department of Justice (DOJ) Inspector General of a staggering lack of action when addressing hands-on sex offenses against children.

Eight Alleged Migrants Jailed for Looting in Flood-Ravaged State.

Eight alleged migrants have been arrested for looting in an area of eastern Tennessee that has been severely impacted by flooding and mudslides caused by Hurricane Helene. The men, arrested on Saturday, faced their first court appearance on Monday.

Five of the men are being charged with aggravated burglary. Washington County law enforcement says they broke into occupied structures to rob individuals impacted by the catastrophic flooding. They have been identified as Albin Nahun Vega-Rapalo, 24; David Bairon Rapalo-Rapalo, 37; Kevin Noe Martinez-Lopez, 25; Marvin Hernandez-Martinez, 43; and Dayln Gabriel Guillen Guillen, 37.

Meanwhile, an additional three men have been charged with burglary after being caught looting unoccupied buildings. The three are identified as Jesus Leodan Garcia-Peneda, 51; Josue Berardo Ortis-Valdez, 30; and Ersy Leonel Ortis-Valdez, 33.

“Kamala [Harris] and [Joe] Biden don’t have the resources to rescue Americans [but they do] have the resources to import migrants to loot them,” commented Stephen Miller, a former advisor to Donald Trump.

APOCALYPTIC STORM DAMAGE.

A large swath of the United States, almost 500 miles wide and stretching from Florida through Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, southern Virginia, and Kentucky, was devastatingly impacted by Hurricane Helene over the weekend. Making landfall in the Florida panhandle, the storm’s high winds caused extensive damage along the Gulf Coast.

As the storm moved north, catastrophic flooding occurred as Helene dumped historic amounts of rain throughout the Appalachian Mountains. Consequently, millions are without power, and hundreds are believed dead. Mudslides and flash floods destroyed numerous small towns dotting the mountain valleys throughout western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee.

The Biden-Harris government has been the target of sharp criticism for its slow response to the crisis. President Joe Bident spent the weekend with family at his Delaware beach home. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris attended several campaign fundraisers on the West Coast, only returning to Washington, D.C., on Monday.

Israel Set to Launch ‘Limited’ Ground Invasion of Lebanon.

Israel has informed officials in the Biden-Harris government that it will soon launch a limited ground invasion of southern Lebanon. The move comes on the heels of Israeli military strikes over the last several weeks, which have seemingly eliminated nearly the entire senior leadership of the Lebanon-based terrorist group Hezbollah. On Friday, the leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, was killed in a massive airstrike on the terror group’s command bunker just south of the Lebanese capital of Beirut.

According to U.S. officials, the Israelis say the invasion will be much smaller in scale than the 2006 ground war in Lebanon, which saw around 120 Israeli soldiers killed and another 1,200 wounded. Israel estimates the 2006 war resulted in the deaths of 600 Hezbollah fighters, with upwards of 800 wounded. Nearly 1,200 Lebanese civilians were also killed in the war, according to international humanitarian groups. Additionally, Israeli officials have told the U.S. that the latest incursion into Lebanon will be far shorter in duration than the 2006 conflict.

Following the October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attacks against Israel, the Jewish state has been engaged in a multi-front conflict with Hamas in Gaza to its south and with Hezbollah in Lebanon to its north. Both terror groups are considered to be military proxies of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Until now, the conflict has predominately remained isolated to Israel’s southern and northern borders; however, a ground incursion into Lebanon—especially following the decapitation strikes against Hezbollah’s leadership—could provoke a more aggressive response from Iran.

Earlier this month, Israel allegedly used small explosives hidden in pager devices and walkie-talkies to injure or kill hundreds of Hezbollah terrorists.

Ex-Candidate Charged with Threatening to Send ‘Hit Squad’ After Rep. Anna Paulina Luna.

Prosecutors have charged former congressional candidate William Braddock with threatening to make Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) “disappear” during an election contest. Braddock, 41, from St. Petersburg, Florida, allegedly made the threats on June 8, 2021, while challenging Rep. Luna for the 13th Congressional District of Florida. The indictment, unsealed late last week, says Braddock threatened to use a “Russian-Ukrainian hit squad” to eliminate her.

Prosecutors did not officially name Braddock’s alleged victim, but he was running against Luna at the time. Leaked audio recordings appear to show him referring to Luna as a “dead squirrel” and “a f***ing speed bump in the road” who would be made to “disappear.” Braddock initially denied the recordings’ authenticity, suggesting they had been altered. However, a judge issued a stalking injunction against him, and he withdrew from the race against Luna shortly afterward.

Braddock fled to the Philippines following these incidents but has now been extradited back to the United States. The Department of Justice (DOJ) is charging him with interstate transmission of a true threat to injure another person. Braddock appeared in a Los Angeles federal court on Thursday and faces up to five years in prison if convicted.

Recently, Luna revealed she has received another “very serious shooting threat,” which law enforcement is currently investigating.

Populists Win Historic Victory Driven by Youth Vote.

Austria’s populist Freedom Party (FPOe) achieved its largest election success in the party’s history on Sunday, September 29, as young voters flocked to support the anti-mass migration party and its “remigration” policies. The FPOe won 29.2 percent of the national vote, beating their previous record of 26.9 percent back in 1999 when the party entered a coalition government as the junior partner of the center-right Austrian People’s Party (OeVP).

Herbert Kickl, leader of the FPOe and an ally of Hungary’s Viktor Orban in the European Union (EU), ran on an anti-mass migration platform and endorsed the concept of “remigration,” which could see large-scale deportations of illegal aliens and possibly incentives for migrants to return to their home countries.

“These invaders want to harm us, endanger our security and our prosperity,” Kickl said during the election campaign, calling for “Fortress Austria.”

The FPOe has become very popular among young voters, attaining first place among those under the age of 34 and winning 37 percent of the vote among those aged 35 to 59.

Despite winning the election, Kickl and his party will have to form a coalition government with another party for a majority in the Austrian parliament. Unlike Germany‘s Alternative for Germany (AfD) and France’s National Rally (RN), there is no so-called cordon sanitaire against the Austrian populists, with all other parties colluding to shut them out of office. This means there is a realistic prospect the FPOe could form a government with the center-right OeVP.

The OeVP last formed a coalition with the FPOe in 2017, which lasted until 2019. However, the OeVP was the senior partner in that coalition, and it is unclear whether it would accept a junior role with Kickl rather than an OeVP politician becoming Chancellor.

The Social Democrats, Greens, and liberal NEOS group have all ruled out working with the FPOe.

Shelter-in-Place Order Remains in Effect Indefinitely Following MASSIVE BioLab Fire.

State authorities have extended a shelter-in-place order indefinitely following a massive chemical fire at a BioLab facility in the town of Conyers in Rockdale County, Georgia. About 25 miles from downtown Atlanta, the BioLab facility initially caught fire early Sunday morning but was thought to be contained. By late Sunday afternoon, the fire had reignited, with a massive plume of smoke spewing dangerous chemicals into the air.

“In the best interest and safety of the public and all citizens, it is recommended that businesses close operations until shelter-in-place is lifted,” Rockdale County officials said in a statement.

The chemical fire has resulted in the evacuation of at least 17,000 people in the immediate area of the facility. According to air quality tests conducted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Georgia’s Environmental Protection Division, chlorine gas was detected in the smoke plume and the nearby air around the BioLab facility. The fire has resulted in the periodic closure of roads throughout Rockdale County as the wind has shifted the direction of the smoke plume, causing harmful irritants to spread across the area.

BioLab’s Conyers, Georgia chemical plant has a concerning record regarding fires. This is the third fire at the facility in seven years. The plant predominantly produces chemicals used in swimming pools and spas, which accounts for the high quantity of chlorine detected in the smoke and air. A small fire on the facility’s roof appears to have triggered a sprinkler system. Subsequently, the water from the fire sprinklers interacted with water-reactive chemicals, causing the fire to spread until it was brought under control around 4:00 PM yesterday.

Images of the fire are reminiscent of the plume of smoke seen after the derailment of a train carrying dangerous chemicals outside East Palestine, Ohio, in February 2023.

Machete-Wielding Syrian Migrant Arrested After Rampage Leaves 31 Injured.

A 41-year-old Syrian national has been apprehended following a series of violent incidents on Saturday evening. Local authorities in Essen, Germany, report that the man used a machete and a van to carry out attacks across the city, which resulted in injuries to 31 people, including several children. The condition of some of the injured, especially the children, remains critical.

The chaos commenced around 5:10 PM when the assailant, who was pictured carrying a Palestinian flag, set fire to a residential building at the intersection of Altenessener Strasse and Pielsticker Strasse. Following this, another building on Zollvereinstrasse was also set alight. Residents made desperate efforts to rescue individuals trapped in the burning structures, with some onlookers capturing poignant images of parents handing their children to rescuers. Official reports from the police indicated 29 injuries caused by the fires, while the fire department counted 31 total injuries.

After starting the fires, the attacker drove his van to Katernberger Strasse, where he rammed it into a greengrocer’s shop twice. Exiting the vehicle, he then threatened passers-by with a machete. People in the vicinity attempted to defend themselves by throwing objects at the assailant.

Police were quickly called to the scene and found the man in a shed near the greengrocer’s shop. He was cornered and, following a tense standoff during which officers warned him to lie down, subdued without further violence.

ESTRANGED WIFE WAS TARGET?

“This was all the work of a man who may not have been able to cope with the separation from his ex-wife. Many people were seriously injured, and apparently, he didn’t care about the damage his actions caused,” said CDU Interior Minister Herbert Reul of North Rhine-Westphalia following the attacks.

The National Pulse reported in August that one in 10 Syrians now live in Germany, with nearly half taking state welfare assistance.

Violent Crime EXPLODES in Europe’s ‘Shining Example’ of Mass Migration.

In 2023 alone, 195 shootings and 72 bombings have resulted in 30 deaths in the European Union (EU) member state of Sweden. Migration-background gangs are responsible for much of the criminal activity, with gang members from Sweden recently killed in Muslim-majority countries like Bosnia, Iraq, and Turkey, which have exported a significant number of their nationals to the Nordic country. The gang activity is escaping containment within Sweden’s borders, with neighboring countries like Norway and Denmark suffering from a spillover of Swedish gang activity.

The left media, as well as liberal politicians and parties in the Western world, have long attempted to portray Sweden as a “shining example” on the topic of mass migration. The reality, however, has become extremely dark.

“They would like to be this shining example: have a lot of refugees coming to Sweden, [and] have a good economy, and don’t have any right-wing, populist parties in parliament. But that just fell apart,” opined Patrik Öhberg, a professor of political science at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden.

In Norway, former Justice Minister Sylvi Listhaug warns that the country must avoid falling into “Swedish conditions,” referring to the growing gang violence. Norwegian police suspect that a bombing in Drøbak, near the capital of Oslo, is the work of Sweden-based gangs, now believed to operate in all 12 Norwegian police districts.

Danish authorities have also reported a rise in Sweden-based criminals crossing into their country. In early September, Danish authorities charged two Swedish teenagers with attempted murder. Danish police say organized crime gangs operating in both Sweden and Denmark recruited the teens. Danish Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard expressed concern over the recruitment of young “child soldiers” to carry out attacks on Danish soil.

Swedish and Danish officials held emergency talks in August, with Swedish Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer acknowledging the severity of the issue and promising more decisive action.

Sweden’s center-right government, backed by the populist Sweden Democrats (SD), is increasing penalties for gun crimes and introducing stop-and-search zones. It also plans to offer migrants $34,000 to return to their homelands.

Stricter asylum policies since populists gained influence in government saw migration figures turn negative this year, but this may have been a statistical trick. Many issues with social division and lack of integration remain endemic.

REPORT: FDA & U.S. Postal Service Linked to Black Market Abortion Pill Cartels.

Mexico-based drug cartels facilitating an increase in unauthorized, self-conducted abortions in the United States continue unimpeded partly due to insufficient regulation by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the United States Postal Service (USPS), according to a report by the American Life League (ALL).

Katie Brown, ALL’s national director, criticizes the FDA and USPS for failing to adequately regulate the distribution and screening of abortion-inducing drugs like Mifepristone and Misoprostol. “It’s clear that the FDA has dropped the ball on this. As the government agency charged with oversight of drugs coming into this country, they have failed. And where is the USPS? The post office is supposed to screen packages for illegal items, yet black-market abortion drugs are being mailed into every state,” she argues.

The report, titled Beneath the Surface: Exposing the Abortion Pill Drug Cartel, highlights the operations of Las Libres, a Mexico-based organization that advocates for universal abortion access. It promotes the distribution of abortion pills through online networks, reaching women and girls across the U.S., often sending the drugs via USPS.

RISKS.

ALL emphasizes that these pills frequently come from unregulated sources, heightening the risks of additional harmful substances being present. The report warns that the current situation enables traffickers to exploit women by providing these pills without proper oversight.

The Las Libres website prominently features a direct link to access abortion pills, advising visitors to use encrypted email services to request the drugs. The organization claims that these pills are safer than many over-the-counter medications and encourages women to mislead medical professionals regarding their use in case of complications.

Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris recently claimed a “Trump Abortion Ban” caused the death of Amber Thurman, a Georgia woman who wanted to abort her unborn twin babies. However, it was an abortion that caused her death, with Mifepristone pills killing her babies but causing a sepsis infection when their body parts degraded inside her.
