New scans show ‘underground megastructure’ could be long-rumored second Sphinx

An Italian researcher believes he has found the location of a second Sphinx, with clues providing a glimpse of more impressive capabilities of a past civilization.

Researcher Filippo Biondi is confident in the discovery, which was actually hinted at in ancient texts more than 3,000 years ago.

‘There is a great chance that there was, or is, another sphinx parallel to the one which exists today.’

Biondi appeared on Thursday’s episode of the “Matt Beall Podcast,” giving a presentation that is sure to blow the minds of fellow researchers and history buffs.

The researcher referred to the ancient Dream Stele, also called the Sphinx Stele, an inscribed slab between the paws of the Great Sphinx of Giza that is believed to have been built around 1401 B.C. The stele explicitly mentions and depicts two sphinxes; this acts as the pretext for the research.

As the Great Sphinx of Giza is positioned guarding the Pyramid of Khafre, researchers looked in the same parallel position in front the Great Pyramid of Khufu, and they think they have found something.

Biondi and his team believe that hidden underneath a 180-foot mound of sand, “there is something very huge that we are measuring.”

There is an “underground megastructure” that includes shafts that appear to be an “entrance,” he told the host. In fact, all the subsequent measurements his team has made around the proposed location of a second sphinx match the distance and angles of the first sphinx to the existing structures in the area.

For example, the distance between the alleged megastructure and the second pyramid is the same as the distance between the Sphinx and the first pyramid.

“We are finding precise … geometrical correlation, 100% of correlation, in this symmetry,” Biondi said.

“We are very confident to announce this. … We have a confidence [of] about 80%.”

Biondi is not the first researcher to propose this claim, either. Egyptologist Bassam el-Shammaa has a published theory that dates back to at least 1999.

“There is a great chance that there was, or is, another sphinx parallel to the one which exists today, only in very poor condition due to air pollution and underground water erosion,” the researcher wrote.

“The remains of the second sphinx are still there buried under the sand, its suffocating dilapidated remains may not rival the state of preservation of the existing one, but I believe it does exist,” Shammaa claimed.

Biondi said there is still work to be done with measuring and comparing the elevation between the existing sphinx and the theoretical one.

The team has also conducted scans of the area that allegedly reveal the aforementioned network of shafts and chambers beneath the structure, which Biondi believes mirror that of the Great Sphinx.

The team must look underneath what is commonly believed to be a mountain, but Biondi says he is confident that it is simply solidified sand and other sediment.

“In our personal opinion, it’s very simple to remove all that mountain, and probably inside there is the second sphinx.”

Man allegedly gropes Easter Bunny at mall

A man named Bera Shivakrishna was arrested after he allegedly groped a woman dressed in an Easter Bunny costume at a mall near Pittsburgh.

The woman was taking photos with children at the South Hills Village Mall in Upper St. Clair on Monday when the man approached her and started asking her questions, according to a criminal complaint obtained by KDKA-TV.

‘It’s a doll, right?’

The woman referred him to an assistant, but he allegedly refused and then groped the victim, according to Upper St. Clair police.

Shivakrishna allegedly touched her arm, then the top of her chest, and finally grabbed her breasts.

The assistant said he was asking, “Is it a boy or a girl?”

He also put his fingers in the nose and mouth of the bunny costume.

Police identified a suspect after reviewing the mall’s security video and speaking to the alleged victim as well as the assistant.

Shivakrishna was found sleeping in the top row of seats at a movie theater near the mall later that afternoon.

Police said he asked them, “Is it on the close to Five Below, the merchandise thing, the bunny?”

After being read his Miranda rights, he allegedly asked, “It’s a doll, right?”

When told the victim was not a doll, he allegedly responded, “By mistake, my hand touched her, if it’s a lady.”

Shivakrishna was identified through his New Jersey driver’s identification and charged with indecent assault. He is being held on a $10,000 bond at the Allegheny County Jail.

Shoppers at the mall told WPXI-TV that the man should definitely face a stiff sentence for the incident.

“This is horrible. I can’t believe this would happen at our local mall. It’s the Easter Bunny,” local resident Jenn Herrig said.

“All kinds of people would have seen this. If I would have been there with my son, I would have just been appalled. We would have gotten out of line and had to leave,” she added.

Veterans slam Democrat candidate for allegedly fudging military record

Veterans are speaking out against Democrat congressional candidate Ammar Campa-Najjar for using his military career to amplify his campaign.

Campa-Najjar allegedly referred to himself as a “Navy Officer” in his campaign materials, differing from his actual title of Navy Reserve officer. Because of this alleged discrepancy, Campa-Najjar’s campaign has raised eyebrows, since Navy policy requires reservists running for office to accurately disclose their military status.

‘Shame on Campa-Najjar and anyone who supported these cynical political stunts.’

The Navy later said officials will be “looking into” Campa-Najjar’s campaign in light of the alleged violation of Pentagon policy.

“I supported Ammar in the past, but won’t again,” Elizabeth Perez-Rodriguez, a Navy combat veteran, told the New York Post.

Campa-Najjar, who is notably dating billionaire heiress Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-Calif.), also caused uproar after staging photo opportunities for his campaign website. The photo that caught the most attention was from the Massachusetts National Cemetery, depicting Campa-Najjar near the grave of a Korean War veteran whom he reportedly had no connection to.

“As a combat veteran,” Perez-Rodriguez continued, “I can’t stand when political candidates exploit the uniform for politics, and using a veteran’s grave site in your campaign is toxic and disrespectful.”

“Our national cemeteries are sacred ground — not political backdrops,” Marine Corps combat veteran Brian Van Riper told the Post. “Using a service member’s grave site at a VA cemetery for political campaign photos is among the most disrespectful, distasteful, and cynical political ploys I’ve ever seen.”

“All these allegations are damning and show a complete disregard for what military service and wearing the uniform should mean,” Michael Malach, an Army combat veteran, told the Post. “Shame on Campa-Najjar and anyone who supported these cynical political stunts, especially using posed portraits at a deceased veteran’s grave to try and boost his campaign.”

Campa-Najjar’s campaign website does list him as a U.S. Navy Reserve officer alongside a disclaimer saying, “Any references to his military rank, service, or photographs in uniform are for identification purposes only and do not imply endorsement by the Department of War or the Department of the Navy.”

Campa-Najjar’s campaign manager, Andi McNew, pushed back against the allegations, saying the cemetery photo was taken while “participating in an official Memorial Day event where he, alongside his unit, honored fallen service members.”

“At no point did the campaign engage in political activity at a VA cemetery, and any suggestion otherwise is a misrepresentation of both the facts and the applicable rules,” Andi McNew told the Post.

This is Campa-Najjar’s third congressional campaign. He is now running for California’s newly redrawn 48th District against incumbent Republican Rep. Darrell Issa.

7 dogs destined for China’s illegal meat market miraculously escape and lead each other home — but that’s only half the story, says Glenn Beck

A video out of China is grabbing the world by the heartstrings. Published less than two weeks ago, it has already racked up over 270 million views.

The footage, taken by a citizen in China’s Jilin province, captures a pack of seven dogs walking down the highway, led by a corgi.

The pack had allegedly been stolen and put in a moving truck, destined for the illegal dog meat market. But they miraculously escaped and walked together for over 10 miles through freezing conditions, with the pack protecting an injured German shepherd.

All seven dogs made it safely back home to their families.

This “should be a movie,” says Glenn Beck.

But the heartwarming footage everyone is swooning over is only half the story, he says.

“This story has captured 270 million people because it’s what we’re missing,” says Glenn. “We’re living in a time where everything is breaking into pieces — our communities, our families, our nations, truth, everything.”

To compensate for this widespread fracturing, many of us, he says, are being told, “Look out for yourself. Protect your own. … Don’t get dragged down by somebody else’s weakness.”

“And yet, here on a highway in China — a frozen highway — seven dogs reject all of that crap. … The strongest slowed down, the smallest led, the injured was protected, and the group endured,” says Glenn, noting that unlike many humans, there was no agenda behind their unity — “just loyalty; just love.”

The “covenant” kind of unity shown by this pack of dogs leads Glenn to ask a blunt question: “What the hell is wrong with us?”

He points to the push in Canada and the United States to both implement and expand assisted-suicide programs, many of which target vulnerable groups like veterans, the mentally ill, and even children.

“We’re supposed to be the most loving … and we’re building systems where the most vulnerable are just discarded, where the innocent can just be exterminated,” he says.

“These seven dogs are there to remind us of something ancient, something simple, something really, really true: You don’t leave your own behind. … We all get home together.”
