Disney’s ABC may not have the stomach or the desire to stand up to the liberal mob, but there evidently remain some organizations that do.

Nexstar Media Group — a Texas-headquartered media company that owns hundreds of televisions stations, including 32 stations affiliated with Disney’s ABC television network — infuriated liberals on Sept. 17 with its announcement that it would cease carrying “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the foreseeable future.

‘This censorship of Kimmel reeks of corruption.’

Nexstar, like the Sinclair Broadcast Group, which similarly pre-empted the poorly performing show, cited as cause Kimmel’s desperate attempt to suggest that the homosexual leftist arrested for allegedly assassinating Charlie Kirk supported MAGA.

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel said on September 15.

While ABC subsequently announced that it was suspending the show, it caved amid backlash from Hollywood script readers, Democrats, and liberal activists. Nexstar and Sinclair, however, stood their ground, prompting even more apoplexy on the left.

Several hours after Nexstar announced on Tuesday that it was standing by its initial decision “pending assurance that all parties are committed to fostering an environment of respectful, constructive dialogue in the markets we serve,” Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren claimed that the company’s programming decision constituted censorship.

The failed presidential candidate tweeted, “Two companies — Nexstar and Sinclair — control hundreds of local TV stations and have business deals pending Donald Trump’s approval. They won’t air Kimmel tonight.”

Warren insinuated that Nexstar is trying to appease President Donald Trump and his allies to ensure that its planned $6.2 billion purchase of Tegna, a competitor that owns 13 ABC affiliate stations, receives approval from the Federal Communications Commission.

“This censorship of Kimmel reeks of corruption,” Warren said.

Democratic Sens. Ed Markey (Mass.), Chris Van Hollen (Md.), and Ron Wyden (Ore.) joined Warren in penning a letter to both Perry Sook, chairman of Nexstar, and Sinclair CEO Christopher Ripley on Tuesday, whining about the companies’ decision to take Kimmel’s show off the air.

“If you suspended a late-night comedian’s show in part to seek regulatory favors from the administration, you have not only assisted the administration in eroding First Amendment freedoms but also create the appearance of a possible quid-pro-quo arrangement that could implicate federal anti-corruption laws,” the Democrats’ letter reads.

“If Nexstar or Sinclair traded the censorship of a critic of the administration for official acts by the Trump administration, your companies are not only complicit in an alarming trampling of free speech rights but also risk running afoul of federal law,” the letter continues.

The Democratic lawmakers’ concern-mongering wasn’t enough to make Nexstar fall in line.

In a statement shared with Blaze News early Wednesday afternoon, the company noted, “Nexstar is continuing to evaluate the status of ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ on our ABC-affiliated local television stations, and the show will be pre-empted while we do so.”

“We are engaged in productive discussions with executives at the Walt Disney Company, with a focus on ensuring the program reflects and respects the diverse interests of the communities we serve,” the company added.

The Trump administration posted a video trolling former President Joe Biden and his autopen antics, and it promptly jogged into viral fame on social media.

Biden had signed many of his orders with an autopen device during his time in office, including some of the controversial pardons. Since then, critics have accused former Biden staffers of using the autopen illegally without proper authorization from Biden, who also appeared to suffer from cognitive diminishment.

‘An unelected aide running an autopen does not have the power to grant a pardon under the United States Constitution.’

On Wednesday, the White House posted a video showing the portraits at the “Presidential Walk of Fame” with that of Biden replaced with the photo of an autopen writing his signature on a document.

It was posted on the social media account for Margo Martin, the special assistant to the president and communications adviser. It was also identified as an official White House account.

The video quickly garnered over 1.8 million views on the X social media platform.

Biden has vehemently denied that the autopen was improperly used during his time in the White House.

“They’re liars. They know it. They know, for certain. I mean, this is — look, what they, they’ve had a pretty good thing going here. They’ve done so badly,” said Biden to the New York Times. “They’ve lied so consistently about almost everything they’re doing.”

Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas argued that Biden’s explanation of the process of using the autopen to the Times actually undermined his argument and should lead to a Justice Department investigation.

“Those have no legal force, and my recommendation to [Attorney General] Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice is they should look specifically at the most vulnerable and devise and implement a legal challenge to challenge these,” Cruz explained in July, “and make clear that an unelected aide running an autopen does not have the power to grant a pardon under the United States Constitution.”

Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) shamed Democrats for their unhinged rhetoric toward U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in the aftermath of a deadly shooting at an ICE facility in Dallas, Texas, on Wednesday.

A gunman indiscriminately fired at the ICE building and a van inside the sally port, leaving two detainees killed and another wounded. No federal agents or employees were killed during the attack. The gunman died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The gunman then walked to the annex’s front doors and shot his rifle and handgun at the entry several times.

“This needs to stop! Violence is wrong. Politically motivated violence is wrong. … This is the third shooting in Texas directed at ICE or CBP. This must stop. To every politician who is using rhetoric demonizing ICE and demonizing CBP, stop! … The divisive rhetoric tragically has very real consequences,” Cruz said.

The shooter had unfired bullets with anti-ICE messaging on them, according to the FBI.

The Department of Homeland Security noted there was a bomb threat against the same facility last month. An unknown male subject, later identified as Bratton Dean Wilkinson, a 36-year-old U.S. citizen, arrived at the reporting entrance of the Dallas Field Office and allegedly claimed to have a bomb in his backpack while holding a “detonator.”

Wilkinson was taken into custody by local law enforcement after a bomb squad was called in and charged with making terroristic threats. As noted by Cruz, this is not the first time a federal immigration facility was targeted in the state.

McAllen

In July, a gunman targeted the U.S. Border Patrol Rio Grande Valley Sector Annex early in the morning. When a law enforcement information system specialist arrived at the facility for work and saw the gunman, he put his car in reverse, with the attacker firing upon the specialist. The specialist shot back with his own firearm but did not take down the threat.

The gunman then walked to the annex’s front doors and shot his rifle and handgun at the entry several times. He tried to gain access to the annex, but failed. The shooter was eventually shot and killed by Border Patrol agents after refusing to drop his weapon and shooting at the agents.

Alvarado

Also in July, an alleged Antifa cell executed a complex ambush attack on the ICE Prairieland Detention Facility. The assailants reportedly lured law enforcement by shooting fireworks at the building, with local police responding. One of the officers was shot, but survived. The attack began to falter with the heavy police response, and the attackers ran away. Ten suspects were eventually arrested and charged, according to ICE.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) went off in a heated rant during a committee hearing, accusing the Trump administration of a “fascist takeover” in Washington D.C. — but Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) wasn’t going to take it lying down.

“I think it’s really important. We need to stand up against this fascist takeover. That’s not a bad word; it’s a fact,” Tlaib began during the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing about crime and the federal crackdown in the nation’s capital.

“And here in D.C. and across the country, it is so incredibly important, Mr. Chair, that this committee does not allow rhetoric that defames or paints Washington, D.C., in a way that you all haven’t really truly seen,” she continued.

“You’re just reading it. No, you’re just reading it or something off of some —” she added, before being cut off.

“Will the gentlelady yield to a question?” she was asked by Donalds.

“I think it’s really important,” she trudged on. “I don’t yield. I don’t even have time.”

“Your time’s expired,” Chairman James Comer responded.

“It is expired, but Mr. Chair, but you all live here, and you’re not telling people the beautiful parts that you do see in our nation’s capital,” Tlaib said, as Comer reiterated that her time had expired. “And no, no, no, it’s just wrong how we’re doing this. It’s wrong.”

That’s when Donalds really stepped in.

“Chairman, I think it’s insane if the gentlelady won’t have an argument, but she’s going to refer to me and some of my colleagues like we were from the Third Reich,” Donalds said. “This is insane. It’s insane. It’s insane. It’s insane.”

“Do I look like a member of the Third Reich to you, Ms. Tlaib?” he asked while she continued to yell — which only got worse.

“Jeez. Somebody cut off her microphone,” BlazeTV host Pat Gray says, annoyed.

“Honestly, that’s who I feel the worst for in all of Capitol Hill, are the microphones here lately because they go through a lot every day,” executive producer Keith Malinak says.

“This is one of the first representatives from the Palestinian territories to be included in our government,” Gray says. “She should be happy about that. I mean, we’ve got a Palestinian representative in the U.S. government, and she’s still pissed off about it.”

The alleged gunman who killed himself after a lethal attack at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Texas has been identified by sources close to the investigation.

The suspect was identified as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, according to a Fox News report.

‘These horrendous killings must serve as a wake-up call to the far left that their rhetoric about ICE has consequences.’

The shooting targeted an unmarked transport van at the facility in Dallas and killed two immigration detainees while injuring one other. Police said a man was found dead on the rooftop of a nearby business with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Kash Patel posted on social media a photograph of rifle-caliber ammunition on a clip with the message “anti-ICE” etched on it.

“Thankfully, no law enforcement personnel were injured. Please pray for the injured and deceased,” he wrote.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem also condemned the attack and placed the blame on anti-ICE rhetoric from the left, including some politicians.

“These horrendous killings must serve as a wake-up call to the far left that their rhetoric about ICE has consequences,” she wrote. “The men and women of ICE are fathers and mothers, sons and daughters. They get up every morning to try and make our communities safer. Like everyone else, they just want to go home to their families at night.”

A statement from the Department of Homeland Security indicated that the same office had been targeted in August by a man who claimed to have a bomb in his backpack.

The suspect was later identified as Bratton Dean Wilkinson, a 36-year-old U.S. citizen.

After Georgia Democrats expressed confidence in their chances to win a state Senate special election leading up to the vote on Tuesday, the Republican candidate came out on top.

Deep-red District 21 elected Republican Jason Dickerson over Democrat Debra Shigley in the special election.

‘Conservatives in District 21 sent a strong message: Woke liberal ideology has no place here.’

Dickerson won by a margin of just over 7,000 votes, collecting just under 62% of the total.

In the August special election for the seat, Shigley put up better numbers than expected in the seven-candidate race. However, no candidate won a majority, triggering the September 23 special election.

Shigley’s initial success drew national attention to the deep-red state Senate race, with DNC Chairman Ken Martin even traveling to Georgia to campaign with the Democrat candidate on Saturday, the Washington Examiner reported.

“I am incredibly proud of the campaign our team ran and thankful for every single person who volunteered their time fighting for a better Georgia,” Shigley said in a statement.

“Conservatives in District 21 sent a strong message: Woke liberal ideology has no place here. I’m looking forward to taking office and fulfilling their mandate to champion the America First values that make us the greatest state to live, work, and raise a family,” Dickerson said in a statement.

Georgia GOP Chairman Josh McKoon celebrated the retention of the long-held Republican seat. “We knew from the start this election would come down to turnout,” he said. “By meeting voters directly on their phones and online, we cut through the noise and drove Republicans to the polls. Our digital ground game made the difference.”

President Trump tapped the incumbent state Senator Brandon Beach to assume the office of U.S. treasurer earlier this year. Beach vacated the seat, which he had held since 2013, on May 5.

Dickerson’s win on Tuesday solidifies the Republican majority of 33 to 23 in the Georgia Senate, though the margin has been shrinking since 2018.

A viral video shows a male knocking down an elderly worker at a Kansas City concert venue and delivering well over a dozen blows to the worker’s face and head.

The brutal attack took place Sunday during a rap concert featuring NBA YoungBoy at the T-Mobile Center. Police confirmed to Blaze News that the suspect is under the age of 16.

‘He just completely lost it.’

Officer Alayna Gonzalez of the Kansas City Police Department added to Blaze News that the “juvenile male was detained and subsequently released to his guardian pending further investigation. This investigation is active and ongoing, and detectives are actively working with prosecutors for consideration of applicable charges.”

WDAF-TV reported that the suspect also assaulted a security guard who ejected him from the venue.

Shani Tate Ross, a T-Mobile Center spokesperson, told Blaze News that the staff member “sustained serious injuries. After receiving prompt care from on-site first aid personnel, they were later treated at a local hospital for their injuries.”

The victim of the attack caught on video — 66-year-old Thomas Schlange — is seen on the clip trying to push away the teenager who towers over him, but he has no chance. The teen begins delivering a flurry of lefts and rights as Schlange is flat on his back and trapped on the floor between two rows of seats. Finally another male pulls the teen off the victim, who appears dazed, and blood is seen around his mouth as others try to help him up.

Schlange told WDAF in a follow-up story that “I went down and had blows to my head” and that his priority in those moments was “just getting him off, getting him off of me … because he was so enraged, so we were just, in essence, trying to protect the fans.”

So what allegedly set off the suspect?

Witness and local pastor Robert McDaniel told the station the attack commenced after the suspect was told his ticket didn’t match the seat he was in.

“He was asked to move to another place because his ticket wasn’t where he was sitting, and immediately he just completely lost it,” McDaniel recounted to WDAF.

McDaniel also remarked to the station that the disturbing video underscores the inability of some teens these days to control their emotions.

“But there is something going on in his heart that needs to be fixed, and what that is is his emotions,” McDaniel added to WDAF. “He needs to learn how to operate and work through and process those emotions.”

Schlange — who has worked his job for over 20 years — added to the station that “young adults or people growing into adulthood … need to learn how to control … anger.”

The office of Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas noted to WDAF that the T-Mobile Center “will work with KCPD, our prosecutors, and our employees to ensure the assailants are identified and charged for the criminal conduct that occurred Sunday evening.”

RELATED: Male, 19, accused of hitting girlfriend’s baby in head so hard that little girl had to go on ventilator. Now she’s dead.

The station added that Schlange is expected to meet Friday with Kansas City police.

What’s more, the United Center in Chicago noted on its website that it canceled the NBA YoungBoy concert scheduled for Wednesday, WDAF noted.

Many observers are furious over the brutal attack. Here are just a few of their reactions.

“Disgusting. What a sad excuse for a human. I hope he’s charged, as an adult, with felony assault,” one commenter wrote. “He deserves lengthy jail time.””Elderly abuse. Assault,” another commenter stated. “10 [years] from now the boy will be in prison or dead.””What a complete POS,” another commenter noted. “Kid steals someone else’s seat then freaks as soon as he’s called out on it SMH. This dirtbag needs to be put in jail for a long while; decent people don’t behave like this.”

The lethal attack on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office near Dallas, Texas, on Wednesday was preceded by another incident in which a man claimed to have a backpack bomb, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

A man fired at an unmarked van at the facility on Wednesday and killed two detainees while injuring another. He was later found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

‘Our ICE law enforcement is facing unprecedented violence against them. It must stop. Please pray for the victims and their families.’

A statement from DHS given to Blaze News indicated that the same field office had been targeted by a man threatening to detonate a backpack bomb.

“The subject showed the security officer what he claimed to be a ‘detonator’ on his wrist. A shelter-in-place was issued for the facility. The officer called 911 and local police responded with a bomb squad,” read the statement from DHS.

The suspect was later identified as 36-year-old Bratton Dean Wilkinson, who is a U.S. citizen, according to DHS.

The revelation further corroborates claims from ICE that the rhetoric against immigration enforcement is leading to more incidents of violence against federal agents and locations.

More than half a dozen schools in California have refused to play against a girls’ team that has a male athlete.

Jurupa Valley High School in Jurupa Valley, California, is once again in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons.

Earlier this year, a boy presenting himself as a girl competed against females in high jump, triple jump, and long jump at a meet in Ventura County, California.

‘They are leading a movement to restore integrity and biological reality to women’s sports.’

The athlete, known as A.B. Hernandez, went on to win gold medals in high jump and triple jump at the state championships, according to the Daily Mail. But what flew under the radar last school year was that Hernandez also led the girls’ volleyball team to an undefeated season.

This season, after the state was entrenched in controversy over a different transgender volleyball player, multiple schools are refusing to participate in volleyball games against Hernandez’s squad.

According to Fox News, seven schools have refused to play against Jurupa Valley: Riverside Poly High School, Rim of the World High School, Orange Vista High School, AB Miller High School, Aquinas High School, Yucaipa High School, and San Dimas High School.

It is unclear how many of the games have been recorded as wins by default for Jurupa, but the school was given a recorded victory for Yucaipa High School’s refusal to play.

To add insult to injury, three teammates of Hernandez have filed a lawsuit against their school after allegedly sharing a team and locker room with the transgender athlete for three years.

Two sisters, Madison and Alyssa McPherson, are from a Catholic family that rejects the notion that there are genders other than male and female.

The third teammate in the lawsuit, Hadeel Hazameh, is from a Muslim family that cites “religious obligations” that prevent the daughter from “exposing her hair or body to males, including by wearing a hijab.”

“Every time a young woman has the courage to sue or take a stand against males in female athletics, it inspires more girls to rise up,” Sophia Lorey, outreach director at California Family Council, told Blaze News. “Each forfeit shows the impossible choice female athletes are being forced into: Compromise their convictions, safety, and dignity, or walk away from the game they love.”

Lorey added, “They are leading a movement to restore integrity and biological reality to women’s sports.”

At the same time, former national gymnastics champion and women’s sports advocate Jennifer Sey also told Blaze News she is proud of the young women for “standing up and pushing back.”

“I hate that the adults are leaving it to young women and girls to defend themselves,” Sey said. “It’s time for every sensible adult to screw up their moral courage and stand with women and girls and for biological reality. Religious or not, it’s wrong, and it is material reality that is being violated.”

The California Department of Education, the Jurupa Unified School District, and the California Interscholastic Federation — the defendants in the lawsuit — all declined to comment when contacted by KABC-TV.

According to Stateline Sports Network, Jurupa Valley High School said that while it acknowledges the “disappointment” of its athletes who are “ready and prepared to play,” the decisions to cancel matches were “made by teams in other districts.”

The school also said it is “compelled to follow the law,” which “protects students from discrimination based on gender identity.”

The law “requires that students be permitted to participate on athletic teams that are consistent with their gender identity (California Education Code 221.5 (f)),” the school cited.

Jurupa Valley High School concluded, “We are proud of our JVHS Jaguars and their willingness to play any team and represent their school and our district with pride. We are currently working to find additional matches to give them that opportunity.”

According to recent reports, Brigitte Macron, the wife of French President Emmanuel Macron, intends to present photographic and scientific evidence in a U.S. defamation lawsuit against conservative commentator Candace Owens to debunk claims she was born male.

Earlier this year, Owens released an eight-part podcast series called “Becoming Brigitte,” in which she made the claim that Brigitte Macron was born a male named Jean-Michel Trogneux.

But while everyone is anticipating what evidence Macron will provide, Glenn Beck can’t help but notice the glaring irony of the entire situation: Woman, according to the left, is an indefinable term.

“We’ve been told nothing proves that you are a woman. Nothing. It’s a choice,” he laughs.

Glenn wonders if Owens’ deep dive into Macron’s biological sex might actually be aimed at proving this very point because as soon as Macron provides evidence that she is a woman, the left’s entire gender ideology unravels.

Stu Burguiere, Glenn’s co-host, has another theory: Maybe the Macrons’ decision to engage head on with the rumors swirling around Brigitte is an attempt to distract from the mysterious and highly disturbing origins of their relationship.

Brigitte was Emmanuel’s drama teacher in high school. When they met, he was 15 years old, and she was 40 and married with three children. When their relationship turned romantic while Emmanuel was still in high school, his parents moved him to a different school, but the separation did nothing to halt the relationship. The two married after Brigitte’s divorce in 2007.

Ultimately, Glenn differs from Owens, believing Brigitte is indeed a woman, albeit “an ugly” one.

To hear more of Glenn and Stu’s conversation, watch the clip below.

What if the greatest mystery of Christianity carried a hidden detail — one so small that it escaped notice for centuries?

The Shroud of Turin — a 14-foot linen cloth many believe to bear the image of Jesus — has been scrutinized by scientists, historians, and skeptics alike. Yet within its faint imprint lies something almost invisible: the outline of human teeth, just behind the lower lip.

Most analyses and descriptions of the Shroud of Turin’s facial image, including scientific studies and expert forensic examinations, describe the lips as closed.

To most, it might seem trivial. To a surgeon trained in facial anatomy, it changes everything. This detail not only deepens the enigma of the Shroud but also raises profound questions about life, death, and resurrection.

Providential encounter

When I first encountered the Shroud 25 years ago, I was at one of the lowest points in my life. Though I had built a long career as a surgeon, teacher, and researcher, something was missing. Then, by what I can only call providence, I found myself in Turin, Italy, during a rare public exhibition of the Shroud.

Seated just 30 feet away, I was startled by what I saw. The cloth bore the image of a crucified man, marked with bloodstains on the scalp, hands, feet, and side. My curiosity was piqued, and my journey into Shroud research began.

Years later, I returned to the Shroud through high-definition black-and-white negatives taken during the 1978 Shroud of Turin Research Project. With the eyes of a surgeon trained in facial anatomy, I saw details that stunned me: a swollen cheek, a fractured nose, and blood trickling from thorn wounds.

Then I noticed something even more remarkable — the faint outline of lower front teeth, visible where closed lips should have concealed them. Most analyses and descriptions of the Shroud of Turin’s facial image, including scientific studies and expert forensic examinations, describe the lips as closed.

The teeth of the matter

This observation became the foundation of a paper I recently published, arguing that the Shroud contains an incisal plane — the biting edge of the lower teeth. While earlier researchers claimed to see both upper and lower teeth, I found only the lower visible, likely because the upper were obscured by the mustache and lip. To a trained surgeon’s eye, the evidence is clear.

Joe Marino, one of the world’s most respected Shroud scholars and editor of Shroud.com, commented on my work: “The fact that this dental surgeon believes at least some of the teeth are present is a significant development that could help determine the image-formation process.”

Why does this matter?

An inexplicable image

Because the Shroud continues to defy explanation. In 1978, STURP — a team of physicists, chemists, and imaging specialists — studied the cloth for five days. Their conclusion: The image depicts a real scourged, crucified man, not painted or forged. There is no evidence of pigment, dye, or photograph. Yet no one has been able to explain how the image was made — or to reproduce it.

Some scientists have speculated that a burst of radiant energy, perhaps ultraviolet light or X-radiation, emanated from the body at the moment of the resurrection, leaving behind an imprint not only of external features but even of internal ones, like teeth. If that is true, then what we are seeing on the Shroud is more than an archaeological artifact — it is a witness to the most transformative event in human history.

The implications are staggering. For believers, the Shroud may be the closest thing we have to photographic evidence of the resurrection — the foundational event of Christianity. For skeptics, it remains an enigma, a puzzle that modern science cannot fully explain. Either way, it demands attention.

The presence of teeth in the Shroud image adds weight to the theory that the image was not formed by human hands, but by a supernatural process. It suggests that what happened on that linen two thousand years ago was beyond the reach of ordinary physics or chemistry.

Deeper questions

And that raises deeper questions: What does this cloth mean for us today? What does it tell us about life, death, and eternity?

In an age when science is often treated as the final word, the Shroud remains a paradox: a scientific mystery that points beyond science itself. Even popular culture has taken notice — actor Mel Gibson recently told Joe Rogan he believes the Shroud is authentic. Respected Christian thinkers like Jeremiah J. Johnston are reintroducing its significance to new audiences.

The Shroud is not simply an artifact locked in a cathedral in Turin. It is a challenge to each of us. It forces us to consider the possibility that God entered history, suffered, died, and rose again. It invites us to hope — that light is stronger than darkness, that life conquers death, and that our own lives can find meaning in the One who left His imprint on that cloth.

The faint image of teeth may seem like a small detail. But sometimes it is the smallest details that carry the greatest weight. If even teeth are visible on the Shroud, then perhaps so too is the evidence of resurrection — and with it, the promise of eternal life.

A Florida LGBTQ+ activist group says that fewer donations to its cause have forced the cancellation of all Pride events, including its Tampa Pride festival.

A statement on Facebook from Tampa Pride Board president Carrie West also blamed Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis for passing laws hostile to the LGBTQ+ agenda.

‘Draconian anti-LBGTQ+ policies and legislation in states like Florida, and across the country, are having their intended impact — to marginalize and dehumanize a segment of our population as a major step toward implementing an authoritarian state.’

“The current political and economic climate, including challenges with corporate sponsorships, reductions in county, state and federal grant funding, and the discontinuation of DEI programs under Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, has made it increasingly difficult for our organization to sustain ongoing operations for 2026,” West wrote.

The group will take a year off in order to seek more funding, with the hope to return in 2027.

“We recognize the festival and parade’s significant financial contribution to local businesses and its vital role to our LGBTQIA+ community,” West continued. “However, this pause is necessary for the organization to regroup, reassess our long-term strategy, and identify additional avenues of funding to secure the future stability of Tampa Pride events.”

Pride organizers in St. Pete told WFTS-TV that they had lost $150,000 in funding over the last few years.

“That has slowly trickled down. We saw a sharp decrease this past year, our 2025 season where we did see less engagement from partners that have been with us for a while that shared different reasons to why they were unable to engage with us this year,” Dr. Byron Green-Calisch said of the group.

Wendy Via of the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism blamed right-wing activism in a statement to Newsweek.

“The cancellation of the Tampa Pride events is the latest outcome of a coordinated nation-wide campaign by right-wing political figures and organizations to chill public participation and coerce companies into withdrawing their financial sponsorships for events that celebrate the diversity that makes our country great,” Via said. “Draconian anti-LBGTQ+ policies and legislation in states like Florida, and across the country, are having their intended impact — to marginalize and dehumanize a segment of our population as a major step toward implementing an authoritarian state.”

Green-Calisch said the group is ramping up fundraising efforts as a result of the drop in donations.

“Really encouraging our partners, ‘Hey, this is the time that we need you to double down on your support and not step away but really lock arms with us as we continue to push forward,'” he added.

The FBI revealed during a press conference on Wednesday that investigators found ammunition with anti-ICE messaging at the scene where the gunman shot at ICE agents and people in custody in Dallas, Texas.

Dallas FBI special agent in charge Joe Rothrock told reporters during a press conference, “We’ve seen … rounds that were found near the suspected shooter contain messages that are anti-ICE in nature.”

The attacks on the agents have been egged on by Democrat officials across the country, who have accused them of being similar to the ‘Gestapo.’

FBI Director Kash Patel posted a photo of the writing on the ammunition that says, “Anti-ICE.”

“These despicable, politically motivated attacks against law enforcement are not a one-off. We are only miles from [Prairieland], Texas where just two months ago an individual ambushed a separate ICE facility targeting their officers,” Patel said.

“Thankfully, no law enforcement personnel were injured. Please pray for the injured and deceased.”

No information has been provided on the type of firearm the shooter used.

As Blaze News previously reported, two ICE detainees were killed and one person was injured, with the gunman being found dead on the roof nearby from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. No federal agents were killed or wounded.

ICE agents and other immigration officers are facing an over 1,000% increase in assaults as the Trump administration carries out enhanced deportation operations. The attacks on the agents have been egged on by Democrat officials across the country, who have accused them of being similar to the “Gestapo” and who want to prevent them from wearing masks.

​Politics 

President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have formally identified acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, as one of the alleged drivers behind the rise in American autism.

On Monday, Kennedy indicated that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will notify physicians that acetaminophen use by pregnant women may be associated with a “very increased risk” of neurological conditions like autism and ADHD in children. The label on the drug will henceforth reflect this understanding.

‘We haven’t tested Tylenol to be used during pregnancy.’

Following the announcement, liberals began gobbling fistfuls of pills in protest, and foreign health officials rushed to convince the public of acetaminophen’s safety and efficacy.

Meanwhile, some critics scrutinized previous advisories and messaging regarding Tylenol. One of the messages that some sleuths evidently came across has gone viral.

Tylenol tweeted on March 7, 2017, “We actually don’t recommend using any of our products while pregnant. Thank you for taking the time to voice your concerns today.”

Whereas in at least two other tweets on theme, Tylenol suggested that pregnant and/or nursing mothers should speak with their doctors before using the drug, this particular message contained no such nuance.

Numerous critics pointed to the tweet as possible confirmation that even the iconic brand advises against pregnant women taking acetaminophen.

“What an interesting thing to say so long ago,” said one X user.

South African musician David Scott, better known as the Kiffness, noted, “Despite all the warnings, crazy pregnant women are potentially jeopardising their children’s future for a couple likes on TikTok … hope this helps some from reconsidering.”

A spokesperson for Kenvue said in a statement to Blaze News, “This post from 2017 is being taken out of context.”

“We do not recommend pregnant women take any medication without talking to their doctor,” continued the statement. “This is consistent with the regulations and product label for acetaminophen.”

When asked whether Tylenol poses an elevated risk to pregnant women and/or their unborn children and why pregnant women need to consult their doctor prior to use, a spokesperson for Kenvue told Blaze News that “acetaminophen is the safest pain reliever option for pregnant women as needed throughout their entire pregnancy.”

“Our products are safe and effective when used as directed on the product label,” continued the spokesperson. “We recommend pregnant women do not take any over-the-counter medication, including acetaminophen, without talking to their doctor first.”

Another tweet that has resurfaced this week was Tylenol’s note to an expectant parent on June 17, 2019, where the company noted, “We haven’t tested Tylenol to be used during pregnancy.”

Numerous robust studies have suggested an association between acetaminophen use during pregnancy and neurodevelopmental disorders including autism.

Dr. William Parker, CEO of WPLab and visiting scholar at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, an author on a number of such studies, recently told Blaze News:

The science tells us several things. Among the most important are: (a) Exposure of susceptible babies and children to acetaminophen (paracetamol) induces many, if not most, cases of autism spectrum disorder. b) Specific, invalid assumptions made when analyzing epidemiologic data have impeded recognition of the role of acetaminophen in the induction of autism.

A tech CEO warned that the Chinese government is ahead in key tech fields and that the threat of war is at America’s doorstep.

Tyler Saltsman is the CEO of EdgeRunner, an artificial intelligence technology company implementing an offline AI program for the Space Force to help U.S. soldiers make technological leaps in the battlefield.

‘A rogue AI agent could take down the grid. It could bring our country to its knees.’

Saltsman spoke exclusively with Return and explained that the new battlefield tools are sorely needed by U.S. military forces, particularly considering the advancements that have been made in China.

“The Department of War has been moving at breakneck speed,” Saltsman said about the need to catch up. “China is ahead of us in the AI race.”

On top of doing “a lot more” with a lot less, Saltsman revealed the Chinese government has been able to develop its AI to perform in ways that Western allies aren’t particularly sure of how it’s doing it.

“They’re doing things, that we don’t know how they’re doing it, and they’re very good,” the CEO said of the communist government. “We need to take that seriously and come together as a nation.”

When asked if China is able to take advantage of blatantly spying on its population to feed its AI more information, Saltsman pointed more specifically to the country ignoring copyright infringement.

“China doesn’t care about copyright laws,” he said. “If you use copyright data while training an AI, litigation could be coming [if you’re] in the U.S.”

But in China, feeding copyright-protected data through learning-AI models is par for the course, Saltsman went on.

While the contractor believes AI advancements by the enemy pose a great threat, China’s ability to control another key sector should raise alarm bells.

China’s ability to take Taiwan should be one of the most discussed issues, if not the paramount issue, Saltsman explained.

“If China were to take Taiwan, it’s all-out war,” he said.

“All that infrastructure and all those chips — and the chips power everything from data centers to missiles to AI — … that right there is a big problem.”

He continued, “That’s the biggest threat to the world. If China were to take Taiwan, then all bets are off.”

Saltsman also saw the idea of rogue AI agents as a strong possibility of how China could attack its enemies. More narrowly, they could go after power grids.

“A rogue AI agent could take down the grid. It could bring our country to its knees,” he warned, which would result in “total chaos.”

The entrepreneur cited the CrowdStrike update that crippled airport systems in July 2024. Saltsman said that if something that small could bring the world to its knees for three days, then it is “deeply concerning” what China could be capable of in its pursuit of super intelligence through AI.

Saltsman was also not shy about criticizing domestic AI companies and putting their ethics in direct sunlight. On top of claiming most commercial AI merchants are spying on customers — the main reason they do not offer offline models — Saltsman denounced the development of AI that does not keep humans in the loop.

“My biggest fear with Big Tech is they want to replace humans with [artificial general intelligence]. What does AGI even mean?”

Google defines AGI as “a machine that possesses the ability to understand or learn any intellectual task that a human being can” and “a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that aims to mimic the cognitive abilities of the human brain.”

Saltsman, on the other hand, defines AGI as “an AI that can invent new things to solve problems.”

An important question to ask these companies, according to Saltsman, is, “Why would AGI make you money if it was an all-intelligent, all-powerful being? It would see humans as a threat.”

For these reasons, Saltsman is serious about developing AI that can work in disconnected environments and work only for the user while keeping humans at the forefront.

As he previously said, “We don’t want Big Tech having all of this data and having all this control. It needs to be decentralized.”

Chicago Cubs third baseman Matt Shaw took time away from his club to attend Charlie Kirk’s memorial on Sunday.

In the middle of a battle for first place in the National League, Shaw flew down to Glendale, Arizona, to attend the celebration of Kirk’s life at State Farm Stadium.

‘I feel strong about my faith and that what was meant to be happened.’

Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Shaw said he received a text message from Kirk’s wife, Erika, asking him to “come to the funeral.”

“I felt as though it was something that was really important for me to do,” Shaw explained.

Shaw revealed to reporters that he met Kirk this past off-season in Arizona, which is not only where the team has its spring training but is also where the athlete lives.

Along with being “one of the biggest Cubs fans” he has ever met, Shaw said that Kirk was extremely supportive of him after they became friends and would send him a text message after every game.

“He was super, super supportive of us and obviously someone who was really faithful,” Shaw recalled.

The baseball player’s recollection of Sunday’s memorial was powerful, as Shaw described what he felt inside the packed stadium alongside fellow mourners.

“The amount of joy that was in that room, with everyone coming together and realizing how important their faith was to each and every person that was in there, I think just is so powerful because nobody was angry,” Shaw said about the event.

Shaw continued, saying what he experienced was a “really powerful” service that he hoped would bring more people together.

Additionally, Shaw said fan support, including Kirk’s, has helped him throughout the season.

“How much support we’ve had for this team and knowing he was a part of that, you know, I think that was a big part of our friendship, and then again his faith and my faith was an area we connected,” he explained.

As for how his team felt about the decision, Shaw said he spoke to about a dozen teammates, along with the Cubs’ legal team, staff, and management. The rookie was pleased with how well the organization responded and how smoothly different elements of the club coordinated to allow for his departure.

Shaw was asked by a reporter if he was concerned about possible backlash from his decision, to which the third baseman said he would always stand on his faith.

“I’m not concerned at all. No,” he replied. “My connection with Charlie was through our faith. That’s something that drives me every day. That’s the reason why I’m able to do what I do every day, and that’s something I’m extremely thankful for.”

Shaw stressed that without his faith and his many blessings, he would not be in the position he is today.

“Whatever backlash comes is okay. I feel strong about my faith and that what was meant to be happened,” Shaw said.

Without Shaw, the Cubs lost 1-0 to the Cincinnati Reds.

Jimmy Kimmel returned to the studio on Tuesday after missing just four episodes following a suspension over remarks about Charlie Kirk’s murderer.

“Jimmy Kimmel Live!” was pulled off the air last Wednesday after the host claimed that Kirk’s alleged assassin was part of “the MAGA gang” that was desperately trying to disassociate the shooter from its political ideology.

“The MAGA gang [is] desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel remarked.

‘This was a sick person who believed violence was a solution, and it isn’t, ever.’

Following those comments, Kimmel and other liberals claimed he was the victim of a government plot to silence him. However, the host returned to the airwaves on Tuesday and prefaced his monologue with a compilation of news stories surrounding his suspension. This included left-wing networks calling his return a “huge” and “pivotal” moment in history.

Kimmel took the stage to multiple standing ovations from his audience, immediately tearing up. He mentioned all the love he had received over the weekend, including from other hosts like Howard Stern and Stephen Colbert, and even a former employer who fired him from a radio station.

But when Kimmel addressed the remarks that led to his suspension, he said he was not trying to pin any ideology to the shooter.

“I have no illusions about changing anyone’s mind,” Kimmel said. “But I do want to make something clear because it’s important to me as a human. And that is you understand that it was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man. I don’t think there’s anything funny about it.”

Kimmel noted he made a social media post about Kirk in support of his family, before adding, “Nor was it my intention to blame any specific group for the actions of what … was obviously a deeply disturbed individual. That was really the opposite of the point I was trying to make.”

“I don’t think the murderer who shot Charlie Kirk represents anyone. This was a sick person who believed violence was a solution, and it isn’t, ever,” Kimmel explained.

Kimmel made time to thank those who “don’t support” his show or what he believes in but support his “right to share those beliefs.”

This included “Ben Shapiro, Clay Travis, Candace Owens, Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul, even my old pal Ted Cruz.”

After playing a clip of Senator Cruz’s remarks, Kimmel still chose to make fun of the Republican by saying, “If Ted Cruz can’t speak freely, then he can’t cast spells on the Smurfs.”

The rest of Kimmel’s monologue focused on his apparent battle with the government over his right to speech, with the 57-year-old stating that Americans cannot allow their government to “control what we do and do not say on television.”

FCC Chairman Brendan Carr had said of Kimmel’s network, ABC, last week, “We can do this the easy way or the hard way,” in reference to Kimmel’s false statements linking the suspected assassin with MAGA. This became the predominant source of liberal claims that the government was censoring speech.

ABC affiliate station owners Nexstar and Sinclair still chose not to broadcast Kimmel’s show upon his return, with Nexstar telling Blaze News, “We made a decision last week to pre-empt ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ following what ABC referred to as Mr. Kimmel’s ‘ill-timed and insensitive’ comments at a critical time in our national discourse. We stand by that decision pending assurance that all parties are committed to fostering an environment of respectful, constructive dialogue in the markets we serve.”

Nexstar owns 32 of 200 ABC affiliate stations.

Carr doubled down before Kimmel’s return on Tuesday and said Democrats “simply can’t stand that local TV stations—for the first time in years—stood up to a national programmer & chose to exercise their lawful right to preempt programming.”

“We need to keep empowering local TV stations to serve their communities of license,” he wrote on X.

Kimmel also claimed in his monologue that the powers that be, simply using the word “they,” tried to “coerce the affiliates who run our show in the cities that you live in to take my show off the air.”

“That’s not legal,” the host declared. “That’s not American. That is un-American, and it is so dangerous.”

In the end, Kimmel admitted his show is not important, but said rather that what is important is living in a country that allows a show like his to remain on the air.

There have been multiple left-wing politically motivated attacks since the murder of Charlie Kirk — but you won’t hear about it from the mainstream media.

In New Hampshire, 23-year-old Hunter Nadeau allegedly opened fire on a wedding at a New Hampshire country club, killing one and wounding two other adults. Nadeau may have been a former employee of the club, but that doesn’t appear to be his main reason for the attack.

“Hunter Nadeau, a former employee of the country club, had not worked at the business for a year. And so you’re like, ‘Oh, that’s just a disgruntled employee.’ No, actually, it’s political violence, because he wasn’t just shouting just random things,” Sara Gonzales explains.

“He was actually saying something very specific, according to a witness,” she continues.

That witness reported hearing the suspect shout “free Palestine” during the attack.

“Oh, okay, ‘Free Palestine,’” Gonzales comments. “And after Jimmy Kimmel was taken off the air, someone shot up a local ABC station in Sacramento, California. [The suspect] was arrested, then released on bail.”

“Because California doesn’t believe in locking up criminals, and the FBI had to step in and arrest him again because he was still posting a bunch of extreme left-wing things to social media,” she continues.

But these two aren’t the only ones.

“And then, of course, two people arrested by the FBI for allegedly planting a bomb under a local Fox News van in Salt Lake City. It just so happened to be Fox, literally right after Charlie was assassinated,” Gonzales says.

“It’s almost like the point is to kill us and intimidate us into silence,” she adds.

Naomi Wolf’s 1991 best-seller “The Beauty Myth” made her the most prominent face of so-called “third-wave feminism” and a darling of the liberal elite. The young Yale graduate and Rhodes scholar served as an adviser to both President Bill Clinton and — during his 2000 presidential run — Vice President Al Gore.

But then the COVID pandemic hit. For voicing her concerns about vaccine mandates and draconian lockdowns, Wolf found herself deplatformed from Twitter, marginalized as a so-called conspiracy theorist, and rejected by the same powerful Democrats who had once made her a star.

‘A 13% to 20% drop in live births around the world, especially in Western, highly vaccinated countries.’

From Ms. to MAHA

Wolf, in turn, has left the Democrats behind. Seeing current Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. join the Trump campaign last year convinced her to endorse “the MAGA-MAHA ticket,” she tells me via video call.

“I think it’s a great thing for the country for these two groups of voters to be in alignment,” she continues.

“What we’re seeing right now … the combination is making the Democratic Party obsolete. And as a lifelong Democrat, I wouldn’t have … said that was a good thing, except that the Democratic Party has turned into such a toxic, marginalized, self-marginalizing stew of festering special interests.”

With last year’s release of “The Pfizer Papers,” based on the research of over 3,000 health care volunteers, edited by Wolf and Amy Kelly, Wolf has cemented her reputation as a courageous and supremely eloquent opponent of government overreach and globalist encroachment on public policy and free speech.

Neither safe nor effective

Wolf says that research points to the inescapable fact that Pfizer knew its vaccine was neither safe nor effective but released it on the public regardless because of an agenda that went way beyond mere corporate greed.

Wolf has sat down for this interview to discuss that research, which she recently presented before before the European Union Parliament after an invitation from German MEP Christine Anderson.

I note that Canada, too, has finally begun to question the efficacy and safety of the vaccine with the release of “Post-Covid Canada: The Rise of Unexpected Deaths” from the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedoms.

‘My heart breaks for Canada’

For Wolf, this is a long time coming. In her view, the situation to her north is even worse than in her home country, with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau overseeing “a horrible overall collapse of civil liberties and the rule of law … and even basic norms of decency around life itself.”

“My heart breaks for Canada all the time,” Wolf continues.

“You have no Second Amendment. You have no First Amendment. People are scared — you know, when I go to Canada, people are really scared of what’s going to happen to them if they are identified as critical of the government. You know, the poor truckers got de-banked and had to fight that fight back in 2022.”

Wolf describes Canada’s major media as being “owned by your government,” noting that “there’s been almost no coverage of ‘The Pfizer Papers’ in Canada.”

I mention that Freedom Convoy trucker and protester Chris Barber could not only receive an eight-year sentence for “mischief” (the label the Crown has slapped on his peaceful protest), but could actually have his truck — the now iconic “Big Red” — expropriated by the Ontario provincial government and destroyed. Wolf is aghast.

A feature, not a bug

For her part, Wolf has not faced any legal pushback from Pfizer, despite repeatedly calling out the pharmaceutical giant for its alleged culpability in vaccine injuries and deaths.

Nor is Wolf afraid to employ a comparison even her allies may find inflammatory, likening Pfizer’s “Pregnancy and Lactation” report to “Nazi science” for the cavalier way it acknowledges the human toll of the vaccines.

“I’m not equating it with Nazi atrocities as a whole, in terms of scale,” Wolf says of the eight-page report Pfizer delivered to President Biden and then-CDC Director Rochelle Walensky.

“But it’s a very terrifying document, because it showcases all the deaths and injuries to women and babies that Pfizer knew their injection had brought about, and … it seems to be communicating the damage to women’s reproduction is not a bug, but a feature of the injection, like, ‘Look how effective it is.’ For instance, they’ve got two babies who died in utero, and Pfizer concludes that it’s due to maternal exposure to the vaccine.”

Drop in live births

Wolf notes that this information did not stop Walensky from urging the vaccine on pregnant women or women intending to get pregnant in August of that year.

“So that sequence of events in itself really raises questions, because she knew this would kill babies,” says Wolf, raising the specter of infamous Nazi medical experimenter Dr. Josef Mengele.

“I don’t make this comparison lightly,” says Wolf, who is Jewish and notes that her grandparents lost a total of eight siblings to the Holocaust. “[But the report is] very Nazi medicine in its methodology, because there are charts. And one of the characteristics of Nazi medicine is [being] meticulous about horrific crimes and suffering.”

“So there are charts in this pregnancy and lactation report that show tens of thousands of women injured menstrually; 15,000 women bleeding every day, 10,000 women bleeding twice a month … 7,500 women with no periods at all, meaning [that they’re] totally infertile.”

“A 13% to 20% drop in live births around the world, especially in Western, highly vaccinated countries,” Wolf says, noting that “that’s the takeaway in Canada as well.”

Sinister finding

So was this all about the profit margin?

“As a journalist, I try never to go beyond the evidence. … I went into the project thinking, ‘Oh, I’m going to find out that they were just greedy, or they just cut corners.’ That’s not what we found at all,” Wolf says.

The truth, according to her, is far more sinister. “There are a number of data points that show that Pfizer intended to create a depopulating technology and that all the people up and down the chain of command — CDC, FDA, the president — knew,” Wolf says.

“That’s why I think the pregnancy and lactation report is so important, and that that was the main function — is to depopulate the West and also to create a massive scale of injury and and death, in addition to sterilization and pregnancy loss.”

President Donald Trump taunted the United Nations about a faulty escalator and broken teleprompter, but some of his allies suspect there was intentional sabotage.

Trump and first lady Melania Trump were on an escalator at the U.N. headquarters in New York City on Tuesday when it came to an abrupt stop. Subsequently, Trump’s teleprompter also malfunctioned during his address, leading him to make light of the mishaps.

‘There better be accountability.’

“These are the two things I got from the United Nations: a bad escalator and a bad teleprompter,” Trump said. “Thank you very much.”

Although the president trolled the general assembly in true Trump fashion, others in his inner circle were not as lighthearted about the equipment problems.

A report from the Sunday Times said that “UN staff members have joked that they may turn off the escalators and elevators” in anticipation of Trump’s appearance and “tell him they ran out of money.” This excerpt has led many to speculate that U.N. staff may have intentionally sabotaged the escalator, causing a serious security risk for the president.

“If someone at the UN intentionally stopped the escalator as the President and First Lady were stepping on, they need to be fired and investigated immediately,” press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a post on X.

Leavitt later announced that the United States Secret Service launched an investigation to determine whether the malfunction was intentional.

“If we find that these were U.N. staffers who were purposefully trying to trip up — literally trip up — the president and the first lady of the United States, there better be accountability for those people, and I will personally see to it,” Leavitt said.

While some of Trump’s allies are convinced that the escalator was sabotaged, U.N. officials point to a more innocuous explanation. In response to the speculation, U.N. spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said the escalator stopped “after a built-in safety mechanism on the comb step was triggered at the top of the escalator.

“The videographer may have inadvertently triggered the safety function,” Dujarric said in a statement.

“The safety mechanism is designed to prevent people or objects accidentally being caught and stuck in or pulled into the gearing.”
