The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) reportedly shipped thousands of viruses to a Chinese military-linked biolab in Wuhan.
USAID sent 11,000 viral samples to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) over the course of a ten-year program, despite not having any formal agreement with the laboratory, according to documents obtained by Daily Caller. The viruses were reportedly sent from China’s Yunnan province to Wuhan — the infamous epicenter of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic — with the exportation being funded by the USAID, which seemingly failed to devise a strategy that would prevent the samples from becoming bioweapons and staying accessible to the U.S. government.

While the abortion pill is touted as “safe and effective,” shocking new data suggests complications are 22 times higher than previously reported. A study from the Ethics and Public Policy Center released on Monday found that 10.93 percent of women who had mifepristone abortions — the first drug used in a two-drug medication abortion regimen — experienced severe complications including sepsis, infection, hemorrhaging, or another serious adverse event within 45 days following the abortion. This percentage is significantly higher than the less than 0.5 percent in clinical trials reported on the FDA-approved drug label.

Seth Rich was a DNC operative. He was “mysteriously murdered in the summer of 2016” just “weeks before” Wikileaks released the results of its investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails. The matter of who leaked Clinton’s emails to Wikileaks directly pertains to the Russian Collusion Hoax that was perpetrated against President Trump. The murder is still unsolved. And the FBI still refuses to turn over records pertaining to the case to attorney Ty Clevenger, despite a federal judge ruling that the agency must do so way back in November of 2023. [Snip] The FBI responded by requesting another 66 years before they’d be required to release the information.

The Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court will soon decide whether Lower Merion has the authority to limit where guns are sold in the community. The ruling, which will be the next step in a two-year saga over zoning laws, could have implications not just for the township, but for the power of local governments across Pennsylvania. While Pennsylvania state law strictly prohibits local governments from regulating guns, Lower Merion officials have argued that prohibition doesn’t extend to zoning, which regulates land use. If the township wins the case, it may empower other communities to follow suit, and protect several municipalities across the state that already limit gun sales to specific zones.

DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence startup, has sent shockwaves through the tech world with bold claims that it can match or even surpass the performance of AI models from top U.S. firms like OpenAI while significantly undercutting them on price by using less powerful chips. Prominent figures in the AI world are skeptical of these claims, including one CEO who says the Chinese company has 50,000 of the forbidden Nvidia H100 chips.

Many Trump supporters believe that Trump won the 2024 election because, this time, the vote for Trump was “too big to rig.” Others dismiss the concern about “stolen elections” because Trump won the popular vote in addition to the electoral vote, plus a GOP majority in the U.S. House and Senate. The reality is that elections are still corruptible. While Democrats didn’t rig the presidential race this time around, the narrow congressional majority probably means that down-ballot races were still manipulated...something Democrats can and will do again.

If you’re anything like me, you’ve experienced an unexplained digital encounters (UDE) — an interaction with your phone, smart speaker, laptop, or other device that leaves you scratching your head and wondering how the damn thing read your mind. My first encounter came a couple of years ago when I was traveling and came upon a sign for a church bazaar. I pulled into the parking lot on a whim. I was enchanted by some snowy owl figurines for sale at one of the booths. They reminded me how my mom had loved owls — years ago she had collected them.

I was boarding a plane from Los Angeles back home to Philadelphia when the news hit that former President Donald Trump had been injured during a rally in Butler, Pa. The details were sketchy, but the responses online and on the plane were already wild — and entirely predictable. [SNIP] But the only response here isn’t to make Trump a god or a goat: It is to declare, once and for all, that we will finally stop pledging our allegiance to guns more than to one another.

On Tuesday, oral arguments commenced in the case of Fischer vs. United States, scrutinizing the legitimacy of felony charges of obstructing an official proceeding against individuals involved in the January 6 United States Capitol riot. The court's ruling will carry significant weight, as it could potentially influence the fate of hundreds of defendants from the January 6 riot and potentially undermine certain federal charges against Donald Trump. Currently, the conservative wing of the court has expressed doubt regarding the government's case, which U.S. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar is making.

The Boston Task Force on Reparations called on "White churches" to step up and pay the Black community back for racial inequities that root back to the trans-Atlantic slave trade, according to reports.
The Boston Globe reported that Black and White clergy members met in Roxbury for a press conference intended to be held outside, though it was instead held in the basement of the Resurrection Lutheran Church on Saturday because of rain.

In a plot fit for an Indiana Jones film, Nazi U-boats once ferried saboteurs to the United States, dropping them off in rubber dinghies along the East Coast under cover of darkness. Their mission was dubbed “Operation Pastorius” and targets included factories, plants, and rail lines — namely Altoona’s famous “Horseshoe Curve,” a railroad engineering marvel built in 1854 vital to the U.S. shipments of steel, medicine, rations, and even troops. The saboteurs, who landed in Long Island and Jacksonville, Fla., had also set their sights on Newark’s Penn Station and a cryolite metals plant in Philadelphia.

Raquel Evita Saraswati made a name for herself in a number of Philadelphia’s community and advocacy circles. The queer, Muslim woman held iftars during Ramadan, creating a space and providing mentorship for other queer Muslims in the community. She attended and helped organize protests, including a vigil in West Philadelphia after the mass shootings at Christchurch mosques in 2019, and a jummah prayer at City Hall after George Floyd’s murder. {Snip} And all of this was confirmed by Carol Perone, Saraswati’s biological mother, who told the Intercept, “I’m as white as the driven snow and so is she.”

USAID was grifting for years, undercutting national security and lining Dem pockets with campaign contributions. RIP
