Stormy Daniels: ‘I’m Significantly More Crazy Now,’ Admits Being Sexual Aggressor With Trump, Told Story to ‘Make Some Money.’

Stormy Daniels, the pornographic film actress at the center of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg‘s prosecution against former President Donald Trump, is emblematic of the stereotypes attached to her industry. A lengthy biographical sketch published in New York Magazine‘s Intelligencer reveals a woman motivated by a need for constant attention, greed, petty vindictiveness, and — by her own admission — mental illness.

In her own words, Daniels contradicts her recollection of events surrounding her alleged affair with former President Trump. She plays up fictitious threats and carefully assumes the role of someone who faced grave injustice — despite no crime ever being committed against her. The National Pulse has pulled some of the more relevant passages that shed important light on the motivations and dubious credibility of Stormy Daniels.

“I’M SIGNIFICANTLY MORE CRAZY.”

In a 2023 interview, shortly after former President Trump was charged with falsifying business records to cover up alleged “hush money” payments to Daniels just days before the 2016 election, the porn actress acknowledged that her mental health had declined. “I’m significantly more crazy now than I was before,” Daniels said.

The adult film industry has been accused of routinely taking advantage of women with untreated mental health issues. A 2011 psychiatric study comparing women in the porn industry with the average woman in California found a stark deviation in mental health. One-third of respondents in the adult film industry met the criteria for a depression diagnosis. Just 13 percent of women in California met the same criteria overall. Additionally, women in the porn industry were by and large more likely to have experienced poverty, sexual abuse, and other forms of violence than the average woman in California.

“MAKE SOME MONEY.”

Former President Trump and his allies have long contended that Daniels had engaged in a celebrity extortion plot as she saw an opportunity for a financial windfall with his presidential campaign. Daniels admits as much in her court testimony, confirming to Trump’s defense attorney, Susan Necheles, that she was motivated to “Get the story out and make some money.”

The National Pulse has reported that Daniels’s original attorney, Keith Davidson — who negotiated the alleged hush money payment with disgraced lawyer Michael Cohen — is a well-known entertainment industry shakedown artist. Davidson has represented several unsavory characters who’ve peddled sex tapes and lurid stories of celebrity trysts, all to make a buck. In 2018, Davidson was fighting at least three lawsuits against him over alleged extortion plots.

CHANGING HER STORY. 

Daniels’s recollection of events has changed over time. The newest iteration, as The National Pulse reported on Tuesday, suggests her encounter with the former President was nonconsensual, with Daniels telling the court that Trump was bigger than her and alluding to the power dynamic between the two. However, prior tellings paint a very different picture.

The porn actress claimed in the past that she was the aggressor. New York Magazine notes: “[S]he recounts details about insulting him, or making him change out of his pajamas, or instructing him to bend over so she could spank him… she had thought of her standoff with Trump as a battle of egos between two equals, and she had felt that she had won.”

A VICTIM WITHOUT A CRIME.

One of the most bizarre aspects of Stormy Daniels’s public persona has been her insistence she’s the victim of grave injustice. “Her mind-set is that this is a justice system that hasn’t protected her, and yet she’s here spending her money, her own time, and taking time off work and risking her safety to show up for a legal system that didn’t show up for her,” a friend of the adult film actress told New York Magainze. Daniels has foregone government-provided security and relied instead on her long-time bodyguard, claiming she doesn’t trust the government to protect her — what she needs protection from isn’t clear.

This victim mentality played out during Tuesday’s cross-examination of Daniels by Trump’s defense attorneys. “He prevailed, but I was not found to have lost,” the porn actress insisted when asked why she still has not paid Trump legal fees as part of a judgment against her over several failed lawsuits against the former President.

The closest Daniels has ever come to actually detailing a crime against her was a claim she made on the witness stand Tuesday that she was approached by a man in a parking garage in 2011 and told to stop discussing her story. By her admission, Daniels never told her husband, daughter, or anyone else of the alleged threatening encounter. Nor did she report the threat to police.

Migrants Account for Nearly 60% of Violent Crime in THIS Western Nation.

Recent data disclosed by Germany‘s Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) suggests that foreign migrants are committing a disproportionately large number of violent crimes. The data, reported by German broadcaster NTV, reveals that foreign migrants, who account for just 14.6 percent of the country’s population, were implicated in 58.5 percent of all violent crimes in Germany. Furthermore, the BKA documented a 14.5 percent rise in violent crimes attributed to non-German suspects from the previous year.

The data also reveals migrant involvement in other crimes. For instance, suspected foreigners constitute 187,000 of the total 424,000 alleged thieves, over 40 percent. In addition, the rate of non-German suspects in general crimes increased by 17.8 percent in a single year to reach 923,269, nearly 50 percent of the total suspected criminals last year. However, these figures do not include those migrants who have since gained German citizenship or those of migrant heritage.

The high degree of criminal conduct linked to foreign migrants has created a substantial burden on Germany’s ability to integrate these groups. The increase in alien crimes has prompted a response, with the German government promising to escalate the deportation of foreign offenders. Reflecting the growing dissatisfaction, the Christian Social Union party’s Andrea Lindholz said Germany is reaching its “limit” in its “ability to integrate” migrants.

German citizens increasingly disapprove of mass migration despite frequent criticism from the establishment. The anti-immigration, national populist Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party has been surging in the polls and is expected to see significant gains in the upcoming European elections.

Jewish Man Charged After Hitting Palestine Protester With Car.

Reuven Kahane, 57, was charged with second-degree assault after a conflict with two pro-Palestinian protesters resulted in him striking a 55-year-old woman with his car on Manhattan‘s Upper East Side, according to NYPD. The incident occurred around 9 AM on Tuesday. The demonstrators reportedly reacted by vandalizing Kahane’s vehicle.

The injured protester, identified as Maryellen Novak, received treatment for minor injuries at Weill Cornell Medical Center. Despite this, Novak was later arrested and charged with criminal mischief and unlawful assembly. The second involved protester, John Rozendaal, 63, was also arrested on criminal mischief charges.

Kahane was arraigned on Wednesday morning and subsequently released without bail. In a statement, the Manhattan District Attorney’s office said it had decided not to prosecute Novak and Rozendaal.

In defense of Kahane, lawyers Sara Shulevitz and Mindy Meyer indicated that additional facts in this case will emerge and expressed confidence that their client will be cleared of all charges.

Genealogical records suggest that Kahane is a cousin of Rabbi Meir Kahane, a prominent Jewish activist who founded the Jewish Defense League and led a militant anti-Arab movement in Israel. The late rabbi died after speaking at a Zionist conference in New York City in 1990.

Pro-Palestinian protests have erupted in cities across the country, with police arresting hundreds of demonstrators. The protests have become a significant issue for Joe Biden, who has tried to appease both sides as he faces a revolt from the progressive left over his government’s support for Israel.

Laken Riley’s Killer SHOULD Get The Death Penalty, But It’s Unlikely. Here’s The Gross Political Reason Why…

Jose Ibarra, the Venezuelan migrant charged with murdering Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, was formally indicted on ten charges by a grand jury on Wednesday. The charges include malice murder, kidnapping with bodily injury, aggravated assault with intent to rape, aggravated battery, and tampering with evidence. Ibarra is eligible to receive the death penalty under Georgia state law, but it is unlikely that Deborah Gonzalez, the state’s progressive Democrat district attorney, will seek it.

Gonzalez, the DA for the Western Georgia Judicial Circuit, ran on an extreme criminal justice reform platform that included ending cash bail and capital punishment. Keeping good on her word, in a January 2021 memo, Gonzalez announced that her office would no longer seek the death penalty.

“This office will: No longer seek the death penalty,” Gonzalez wrote. “Cases which are legally eligible for the death penalty are eligible for sentences of life without parole and life with parole eligibility after serving thirty years. Both of these sentences constitute very substantial punishment. Decisions to seek the sentence of life without parole are a sentence of death in prison.”

In Georgia, for a murderer to receive the death penalty, the offender must meet an aggravating circumstance, such as aggravated battery — for which Ibarra was also indicted — or another capital felony. Ibarra’s charges meet the death penalty standard, and his indictment suggests he certainly deserves it.

According to court documents, Ibarra allegedly attempted to rape Riley before “striking her head multiple times with a rock” and “asphyxiating her in a manner unknown to jurors.” Regardless of what Gonzalez decides, Ibarra’s actions stand as a shocking testament to the dangers of mass migration and the crime that comes with it.

‘Bloodbath’ Hoaxers MeidasTouch Hawk ‘Dark Brandon’ Merch, Linked to Allegations Biden Molested Daughter.

MeidasTouch, the far-left media network responsible for the debunked “bloodbath” hoax against Donald Trump, is selling merchandise featuring ‘Dark Brandon,’ an alter ego of Joe Biden associated with allegations he molested his daughter Ashley.

‘Dark Brandon,’ a direct rip-off of ‘Dark MAGA,’ emerged after conservatives began referring to Biden as “Brandon.” This was in reference to the media claiming unconvincingly that crowds chanting “F**k Joe Biden” at a sporting event were actually saying “Let’s go Brandon!”

While ‘Dark Brandon’ is an attempt to “take back” the nickname and present the 81-year-old Democrat as a tough, no-nonsense operator, it was quickly repurposed by critics, including in Communist China.

They produced variations on ‘Dark Brandon’ memes featuring Biden with glowing, demonic eyes, with the caption ‘IT’S SHOWER TIME ASHLEY.’

This references an entry in the diary of his daughter, Ashley Biden, which reads: “Was I molested? I think so – I can’t remember specifics but I do remember trauma. Hyper-sexualized @ a young age . . . I remember being somewhat sexualized with Caroline; I remember having sex with friends @ a young age; showers w/my dad (probably not appropriate).”

MeidasTouch’s pedophilia-linked merchandise — which also gives Biden glowing eyes — is not the only controversy to have emerged since it popularized the “bloodbath” hoax. The network is also reported to have accepted money from billionaire Epstein island visitor Reid Hoffman, and to employ a contributor who believes America’s Founding Fathers were all white supremacist racist pedophiles.

This Country is Reclassifying Weed, Undoing Decriminalization.

Thailand Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin made a surprising about-face on the nation’s approach to cannabis, declaring that the substance would be reclassified as a narcotic by the close of 2024. This decision comes two years after the unprecedented decriminalization of its recreational use in the region.

Srettha, a prominent figure in the real estate industry before his term as Prime Minister, has long held clear opposition to the recreational use of cannabis, asserting that it could inflame Thailand’s existing drug crisis further. His term in office, which began in 2023, has been characterized by a strong stance against recreational cannabis use, a position he reinforced this week via social by asking the health ministry to modify regulations.

“I want the health ministry to amend the rules and re-list cannabis as a narcotic,” Srettha posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday. He continued: “The ministry should quickly issue a rule to allow its usage for health and medical purposes only.”

The Prime Minister’s views contrast sharply with the nation’s previous cannabis policies, which led to the flourishing of numerous small businesses trading in cannabis products. Critics, however, contend the nation’s approach to lifting restrictions on recreational cannabis use was haphazard and handed too much authority to local magistrates to implement regulations.

Thailand marks the latest nation to reconsider loosening laws regarding drug use. An over-decade-long experiment with decriminalizing all drugs in Portugal appears to have failed, with public opinion increasingly turning against the policy. Even in the United States, where Oregon enacted reforms similar to Portugal, the Democrat governor recently signed emergency legislation into law decriminalizing drug possession after an epidemic of overdoses and violence.

Currently, the Biden government is moving to reduce federal restrictions on marijuana use.

DATA: Mass Migration a ‘Much Bigger Problem’ Than Climate Change.

A global study of 63,000 interviewees across 53 countries finds Europeans believe tackling mass migration is much more important than tackling climate change. Only 14 percent of respondents to the Denmark-based Alliance of Democracies Foundation placed the climate among the top three priorities for government.

Germans are most concerned by mass migration, with 44 percent desiring a cut. Less than a quarter listed the climate as a priority. The country’s leftist coalition government appears to be badly out of step with the public, having just passed legislation to make it even easier for foreigners to acquire German citizenship. Months later, the government conceded there had been a huge rise in foreigners committing crimes and that foreigners now account for an astonishing 41 percent of all criminal suspects.

“Since 2022, more and more Europeans say that their government should prioritize ‘reducing immigration’, and fewer say that their government should ‘fight climate change,'” the Alliance of Democracies report observes. “Now in 2024, for the first time, reducing immigration is a greater priority for most Europeans than fighting climate change.”

A similar phenomenon has been observed in the United States, where immigration overtook “Government” as “the most important problem facing the country” in February, according to Gallup. It also ranked ahead of “inflation” and “the economy in general,” even when combined.

This development is bad news for Joe Biden, who polls badly on inflation and the economy compared to Donald Trump, but especially badly on immigration.

Across the board, the 81-year-old has the worst approval rating of any president since the end of the Second World War at this point in his first and possibly only term.

10 Year Warning From Ron Paul.

Veteran senator and former presidential candidate Ron Paul has warned the “Great Ukraine Robbery” is far from over, as the “elites have no intention of shutting down” their “gravy train.”

“Reuters wrote right after the aid bill was passed that, ‘Ukraine’s $61 billion lifeline is not enough.’ Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell went on the Sunday shows after the bill was passed to say that $61 billion is ‘not a whole lot of money for us…’ Well, that’s easy for him to say,” writes Paul. McConnell, the outgoing Senate Minority Leader, and his wife have a net worth in the tens of millions of dollars.

Paul, the father of Senator Rand Paul, notes Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, “had the nerve to criticize the U.S. for not producing weapons fast enough” after the aid bill’s approval, asking, “How’s that for a ‘thank you’?”

Vice presidential contender Senator J.D. Vance notes U.S. industry is incapable of meeting the Ukrainian military’s needs, however much aid goes to Zelensky, due to lack of capacity. Zelensky says he needs four to seven million 155-millimeter artillery shells to stay in the fight. The U.S. produces only 360,000 annually and can only give some to Ukraine.

Vance argues this reality proves it is time to “accept that Mr. Zelensky’s stated goals for the war — a return to 1991 boundaries — are fantastical” and encourage a compromise peace. Kuleba insists it means the U.S. should reconfigure its economy.

MILITARY-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX.

“It’s all about the U.S. weapons industry,” Paul argues. “Last week news broke that the Ukrainian government was in negotiations with the Biden Administration to sign a ten-year security agreement that would lock in U.S. funding for Ukraine for the next two and a half U.S. Administrations. That would unconstitutionally tie future presidents’ hands when it comes to foreign policy and would leave Americans on the hook for untold billions more dollars taken from them and sent to the weapons industry and to a corrupt foreign government,” he warned.

He concluded with a scathing criticism of Biden’s claims the day he signed the multi-billion-dollar aid bills for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan was “a good day for world peace.”

“Yes, and ‘War is peace.’ Debt is good. Freedom is slavery,” he said, citing the slogans of the ruling party in George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four.

EXC: Gaetz Claps Back at Kevin McCarthy, Who is Now a Campaign Manager for BLM/DEI Candidates.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy is spending much of his plentiful free time “escalating his revenge campaign” against Congressman Matt Gaetz, according to a new POLITICO article, for which McCarthy was interviewed, repeating false Biden Department of Justice and FBI talking points against the Florida firebrand.

“Gaetz is the Hunter Biden of the Republican Party,” McCarthy told POLITICO‘s Olivia Beavers. “He’s got an opponent who is pro-life, pro-Second Amendment, trained at Pensacola, went to the Naval Academy and flew jets to defend us while Gaetz was getting kicked out of high school, buying coke and paying minors for sex.”

In fact, none of the lurid claims first peddled by the Biden regime via the New York Times were ever proven, despite a number of investigations, including one under McCarthy’s stewardship of the Republican-controlled House of Representatives. Indeed, Gaetz emerged stronger from the attempt on his career, using said power to oust McCarthy, now serving as an entry-level campaign manager for Aaron Dimmock.

Dimmock, who flew surveillance planes for a few years before transitioning to become a management consultant, has previously posted on social media of his “commitment” to Black Lives Matter, as well as “diversity and inclusion.” In fact, the far-left candidate’s curriculum vitae of wokery is so expansive the Gaetz campaign set up a dedicated website for it.

Responding exclusively to The National Pulse over McCarthy’s new role as Dimmock’s campaign manager, Gaetz said: “Kevin will likely spend millions of dollars losing to House Conservatives in primaries this cycle. But it will probably still be cheaper than the therapy he needs.”

Swampier still, the POLITICO piece quotes Brian O. Walsh from Red Elephant Strategy, a new firm stood up in recent years which appears to have made most of its cash by defending McCarthy and his allies in Congress.

Walsh said he traveled to “Florida’s Panhandle in March to conduct focus groups and left pleased with the findings,” which is D.C. consultant speak for “the polling was terrible, so we’ve had to move on to focus groups.” Now, if only McCarthy knew (or lived with) someone who runs focus groups for a living. Hmm.

Politician Fined… After Linking to Govt’s Own Migrant Rape Stats.

Marie-Thérèse Kaiser, a politician from the Alternative für Deutschland Party (AfD), has been found guilty of ‘incitement’ for sharing a government link to statistics on rapes committed by migrants and questioning their disproportionately high incidence rate. In a 2021 social media post, Kaiser asked, in the context of refugee resettlement, “Afghan refugees, welcome culture for group rapes?”

In defense of her post, Kaiser explained her impetus was to spark a debate on the alarming crime rates among Afghan migrants. She stressed her concern as a woman feeling threatened, particularly by groups of male migrants. She also voiced concern that unchecked immigration might be fostering an atmosphere conducive to a surge in criminal activity. Her conviction was met with the pronouncement from the judge that “freedom of expression ends where human dignity begins.”

The announcement of the guilty verdict has sparked controversy and critique, including from entrepreneur and tech giant Elon Musk. “Are you saying the fine was for repeating accurate government statistics? Was there anything inaccurate in what she said?” Musk posted to X (formerly Twitter).

Kaiser has stated she will file an appeal against the verdict.

Germany has witnessed an 18 percent spike in foreign suspects, leading to 41 percent of all crime suspects belonging to foreign communities. Conservative factions in the country argue that these statistics point toward the need for a cap on immigration and a revision of integration policies. The German government, however, continues to focus on homegrown conservative ‘extremist’ threats, especially the AfD, which is expected to surge in this summer’s European elections.
