IT consultant arrested after posing with gun on LinkedIn

An IT consultant was arrested by police in Britain after he posted a picture online of himself posing with a gun in the US.

Jon Richelieu-Booth said he was shocked by the “Orwellian” decision by West Yorkshire Police (WYP) to prosecute him over the social media post.

The 50-year-old said that on Aug 13 he had posted a picture of himself on LinkedIn holding a shotgun while on a private homestead with friends during a holiday in Florida.

Mr Richelieu-Booth claims the LinkedIn message contained nothing he considered threatening, with the picture attached to a lengthy post about his day and work activities.

However, he said that a police officer later visited his home to warn him that concerns had been raised about the post.

“I was told to be careful what I say online and I need to understand how it makes people feel,” he said.

Mr Richelieu-Booth said he offered to provide officers with proof that the picture of the firearm had been taken while he was in the US but the officers said that was not necessary.

Mr Richelieu-Booth said two officers then returned to his home shortly after 10pm on Aug 24 and arrested him.

A bail document seen by The Telegraph refers to an allegation of possessing a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence and a further allegation of stalking related to a photograph of a house that appeared on his social media.

He said he was held overnight in a cell before being interviewed.

Sweden: $375 Million in Fraudulent State Welfare Funds Siphoned Off by Foreign Criminal Gangs Ravaging the Nation

A government investigation has revealed Sweden’s catastrophic betrayal, exposing how the nation’s welfare state—forged through centuries of Swedish ingenuity, sacrifice, and national pride—has been hijacked by criminal gangs, overwhelmingly fueled by unchecked mass migration from third-world countries.

The probe finally rips the veil off a scandal that Sweden’s globalist elite—those cosmopolitan liberals and social-democratic enablers who have ruled the country for decades—deliberately buried, ignored, and denied while the rot spread unchecked through the Swedish state apparatus.

Thousands of these gang members, many with deep roots in Sweden’s migrant enclaves, have been taking state handouts for years, draining the equivalent of over €325 million ($375 million) straight from the pockets of honest, tax-paying Swedes who built this system for their own people.

These so-called “benefits”—from fake sickness payouts to unemployment welfare—have become a taxpayer-funded safety net for these foreign predators, bankrolling their empires of drug dealing, extortion rackets, and brutal violence that terrorize Swedish streets and erode the country’s national sovereignty.

What this report unmasks is a national disgrace. Sweden’s jewel of a welfare system—a beacon of excellence built by generations of Swedes—has become little more than a slush fund propping up the fake refugees and economic migrants from the Third World who are dismantling the Swede’s one and only homeland from within, all thanks to spineless, traitorous globalist elites and their open-borders insanity.

Nils Öberg, chief of the Social Insurance Agency, conceded what patriotic Swedes have known for years—these migrant-dominated crime syndicates have embedded welfare fraud into their anti-Swedish operations, treating its national treasury like their personal ATMs.

The investigation shines a bright light on the ugly reality. Foreign-born individuals and their descendents, imported en masse under reckless, delusional multicultural fantasies, dominate the ranks of these welfare-scamming gangsters, proving once and for all that mass migration isn’t “enrichment”—it’s a direct assault on Sweden’s cultural and economic integrity.

One fraudster, claiming total disability to milk the system, was caught pumping iron in gyms, jetting off on lavish trips, and orchestrating gang hits—all while living off Sweden’s generous social welfare system designed to help vulnerable Swedes.

Another unemployed migrant was exposed as the kingpin of a sprawling criminal empire with over 30 convictions, yet still collecting welfare checks courtesy of our liberal-globalist policies that prioritize migrants—mostly military-aged men from alien cultures—over native Swedes.

Thousands of these gang-linked migrants declare such small “legal” earnings that the Swedish state is obligated to pick up the tab for their child-support payments, costing hardworking families another €10 million annually in this grotesque wealth transfer from Swedes to foreigners.

Authorities also found deep infiltration of legitimate businesses by these criminal networks, where they own, run, or manipulate companies to file fake sick-pay claims. Shockingly, many of these outfits trace back to migrants exploiting Sweden’s trust-based system.

The “personal assistance” industry—long a playground for fraud—emerged as a prime target, filled with gangs using fake staffing and ownership schemes to siphon funds that should safeguard Swedish elders and the disabled, not finance foreign crime lords.

Social Insurance Minister Anna Tenje labeled the findings “astonishing,” declaring that “if Sweden is going to to break the gangs, it must throttle this supply of our common tax funds.”

Calls for Anthony Fauci be prosecuted amid Trump’s autopen declaration… while Biden also faces charge threat

Right-wingers are demanding that Anthony Fauci be brought up on charges after President Donald Trump said he revoked all of President Joe Biden‘s autopen-signed executive orders and pardons.

Fauci, who led the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for nearly 40 years, received an autopen-signed pardon right before Trump retook the White House on January 20.

Because Trump has long argued that the autopen signatures should not be treated as authentic – while also factoring in Biden’s cognitive decline – Republicans are voicing their belief that Fauci could be prosecuted for alleged wrongdoing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Marjorie Taylor Greene led the charge, writing on X Friday that if ‘autopen pardons are repealed then prosecute Fauci for crimes against humanity’. The Daily Mail approached Greene’s office for further comment.

Nicolas Hulscher, an epidemiologist who works with the McCullough Foundation, said it was ‘time to PROSECUTE Anthony Fauci.’

The McCullough Foundation is known in part for spreading the unsubstantiated claim that vaccines are leading cause of autism.

Another account on X pointed out that Fauci has been referred for criminal charges by Senator Rand Paul, who claims the doctor lied to Congress about gain of function research in Wuhan, China.

Some US intelligence agencies, including the FBI, CIA and Energy Department, all believe with varying degrees of confidence that the SARS-CoV-2 virus could have leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

There may not be a safe off-ramp for some taking GLP-1 drugs, study suggests

The popularity of GLP-1 weight-loss medications continues to soar—and their uptake is helping to push down obesity rates on a national scale—but a safe, evidence-based way off the drugs isn’t yet in clear view.

An analysis published this week in JAMA Internal Medicine found that most participants in a clinical trial who were assigned to stop taking tirzepatide (Zepbound from Eli Lilly) not only regained significant amounts of the weight they had lost on the drug, but they also saw their cardiovascular and metabolic improvements slip away. Their blood pressure went back up, as did their cholesterol, hemoglobin A1c (used to assess glucose control levels), and fasting insulin.

In an accompanying editorial, two medical experts at the University of Pittsburgh, Elizabeth Oczypok and Timothy Anderson, suggest that this new class of drugs should be rebranded from “weight loss” drugs to “weight management” drugs, which people may need to take indefinitely.

Some studies have found that about half of people who start taking a GLP-1 drug for weight loss stop taking it within a year—for various reasons—and many people think they can stop taking anti-obesity drugs once they’ve reached a desired weight, Oczypok and Anderson write. But that’s not in line with the data.

“It may be helpful to compare them to other chronic disease medications; patients do not stop their anti-hypertensive medications when their blood pressure is at goal,” they write.

In the trial, researchers—led by Eli Lilly scientists—followed 670 participants with obesity or overweight (but without diabetes) who were treated with tirzepatide for 36 weeks. Then the participants were split into either continuing with the drug for another 52 weeks (88 weeks total) or getting a placebo for that period of time. Both groups were told to continue a reduced-calorie diet and an exercise plan.

In all, 335 participants were randomized to switch to a placebo, and the researchers monitored changes in their weight and cardiovascular health metrics after the switch. Not everyone in the first phase of the trial lost significant amounts of weight on the drug. So, the researchers only closely tracked the 308 of the 335 who lost at least 10 percent of their body weight on the drug.

Of the 308 who benefited from tirzepatide, 254 (82 percent) regained at least 25 percent of the weight they had lost on the drug by week 88. Further, 177 (57 percent) regained at least 50 percent, and 74 (24 percent) regained at least 75 percent. Generally, the more weight people regained, the more their cardiovascular and metabolic health improvements reversed.

Canadian Muslims Take to Streets in Anger After Quebec Pushes Forward With Ban on Public Prayer

The Canadian province of Quebec is planning to ban all public prayer as part of an aggressive push toward secularization.

Quebec’s secularism minister, Jean-François Roberge, said the laws were designed to accelerate his push toward secularization.

The Guardian reports:

Quebec says it will intensify its crackdown on public displays of religion in a sweeping new law that critics say pushes Canadian provinces into private spaces and disproportionately affects Muslims.

Bill 9, introduced by the governing Coalition Avenir Québec on Thursday, bans prayer in public institutions, including in colleges and universities.

It also bans communal prayer on public roads and in parks, with the threat of fines of C$1,125 for groups in contravention of the prohibition. Short public events with prior approval are exempt.

CAQ has made secularism a key legislative priority, passing the controversial Bill 21 – which bans some public sector employees from wearing religious symbol – in 2019.

It plans to extend that prohibition to anyone working in daycares, colleges, universities and private schools. Full face coverings would be banned for anyone in those institutions, including students.

Quebec’s secularism minister, Jean-François Roberge, said the laws were designed to accelerate his push toward secularization.

“It’s shocking to see people blocking traffic, taking possession of the public space without a permit, without warning, and then turning our streets, our parks, our public squares into places of worship,” he explained.

He added that schools are “are not temples or churches or those kinds of places.”

Trump pardons convicted narco-trafficking pol amid plot to rig Honduran election

Donald Trump is threatening to destroy the Honduran economy unless the country elects the oligarch-run National Party. Now, he’s even pardoned the last party member to rule the country, who was convicted in 2024 of smuggling hundreds of tons of drugs into the US.

On November 28, US President Donald Trump Trump declared he will be pardoning former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was sentenced to 45 years in a New York prison in 2024 for his role in helping smuggle 400 tons of cocaine into the US in a drug-running scheme linked to the Sinaloa cartel. Hernandez, Trump wrote, had been “treated very harshly and unfairly.”

While Hernandez was President of Honduras, he initiated contracts worth over half a million dollars with Republican lobbying firm BGR Group, after his brother, Tony, was sentenced to life in prison for cocaine smuggling. In the time since, BGR has donated tens of thousands of dollars to the campaign of Marco Rubio, the Cuban American former senator who now serves as Trump’s Secretary of State.

As The Grayzone reported, the US Department of Justice indictment of Hernandez contained explicit and often shocking details of his role in transforming his country into the Western hemisphere’s premier narco-state. The US-backed president “wielded incredible influence and partnered with some of the most notorious narcotics traffickers in Honduras, allowing them to flourish under their control,” a DOJ prosecutor stated.

Will Trump’s autopen executive order de-bench 237 leftist federal judges (including Ketanji Brown Jackson)?

On Thursday, I wrote that leftist judges on the bench are creating a form of tyranny, for they have arrogated to themselves the constitutional power of the Executive branch of government. There is no more balance. According to the Democrat appointees on the bench, none of Trump’s actions are solely within the discretion of the democratically elected chief executive. Instead, all are subject to judicial review and approval.

The day after I wrote that essay, Trump issued a statement via Truth Social voiding every document that was signed with an Autopen during Joe Biden’s presidency and threatening Biden along the way:

Any document signed by Sleepy Joe Biden with the Autopen, which was approximately 92% of them, is hereby terminated, and of no further force or effect. The Autopen is not allowed to be used if approval is not specifically given by the President of the United

States. The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him. I am hereby cancelling all Executive Orders, and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the Autopen did so illegally. Joe Biden was not involved in the Autopen process and, if he says he was, he will be brought up on charges of perjury. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Some have pointed out that this order is merely performative, since one president can always undo another’s executive orders.

As an aside, that line of argument is untrue. As we’ve seen, district courts have repeatedly held that Donald Trump cannot reverse the executive orders of previous presidents. That’s the special unwritten Donald Trump rule. Their rulings are always dressed up in fancy language and erroneous legal arguments, but the net result has been that what other presidents do, Trump cannot undo. (ChatGPT struggles with this concept, but you can get the idea of what’s going on here.)

More important than that argument’s inaccuracy is a practical reality: Voiding all of Biden’s Autopen signatures doesn’t just end policy Executive Orders. In theory, it also ends every judicial nomination Biden made, from Ketanji Brown Jackson on down.

This matters a great deal, not just because of Jackson, but because Biden was able to nominate the largest number of federal judges in a single term since the Carter administration, 235 in all. Most of them have proven to be distinguished only by their “diversity,” not their intelligence, legal acumen, or fidelity to the Constitution and the rule of law.

Male Baltimore High School Teacher Exposed for Posting Disturbing Kink Videos Wearing Fake Pregnancy Belly and Massive Fake Boobs – Parents and Critics Demand Immediate Firing

In yet another shocking example of radical left ideology infiltrating public schools, a “non-binary” Baltimore high school English teacher has come under intense fire for sharing explicit kink-related content on social media, including videos where he role-plays as a pregnant woman with enormous prosthetic breasts.

James Roman Stilipec, 50, who goes by “Jay Aress” online and teaches ninth-grade students at Reach! Partnership School, has been blasted by parents and conservative groups for flaunting his fetishes publicly, raising serious questions about his fitness to be around impressionable teens.

Stilipec, a former U.S. Navy veteran with 36DDD breast implants he proudly calls his “hooters,” regularly posts bizarre videos on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, X, and YouTube, which were uncovered by Reduxx.

In one compilation shared by outraged citizens, he dons a fake pregnancy belly and cradles it tenderly, using hashtags like “#jayandthetwins.”

Another clip shows him strutting with a $400 36M breastplate prosthetic, similar to the infamous Canadian teacher Kayla Lemieux who wore oversized fake boobs in class, amplifying his already enhanced chest for what appears to be fetishistic role-play as a woman.

While Stilipec doesn’t seem to wear the prosthetics in school, one profile photo shows him in a low-cut shirt exposing cleavage next to a classroom bulletin board, blurring the lines between his personal kinks and professional life.

Outraged TikTok users confronted him in a heated video conference, accusing him of “roping in the public to participate in their fetish”—a charge he denied—while demanding he be fired to protect students.

CIA cut deal bringing Afghan ‘Zero Unit’ fighters, including accused guardsman killer, to the U.S.

The Afghan national who has been charged with shooting two members of the West Virginia National Guard this week was reportedly a member of the elite Afghan “Zero Unit” forces backed by the CIA — with the U.S. spy agency apparently having struck a 2021 deal with these Afghan commandos to bring thousands of the fighters and their families to the United States.

The CIA appeared to have quietly cut a deal with thousands of its paramilitary-style Zero Unit forces in Afghanistan in August 2021 as the Taliban took over the country and its capital of Kabul. According to a former intelligence officer who spoke with Just the News who declined to be identified, the terms of the deal were that if the Zeroes helped secure Hamid Karzai International Airport (HKIA) during the chaotic non-combatant evacuation operation (NEO) then, in exchange for that and for their years of coordination with the U.S. spy agency, the fighters and their families would earn an airlift to the U.S.

Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a former member of the National Strike Unit (NSU) forces, which were tied to the CIA and to the former Afghan government’s National Directorate of Security (NDS), reportedly assisted in securing HKIA during the NEO and arrived in the U.S. with his family in September 2021. The Taliban took over Afghanistan in August 2021 following then-President Joe Biden’s April 2021 go-to-zero directive ordering the full withdrawal of U.S. troops.

Afghan national from Operation Allies Welcome arrested, charged for threatening to bomb Texas city

An Afghan national was arrested this week after he claimed he was building a bomb and intended to target a building in Fort Worth, Texas, authorities said.

Mohammad Dawood Alokozay was apprehended Tuesday by the Department of Homeland Security after posting a video to his TikTok profile with the alleged threat. He is being charged at the state level.

He was arrested a day before Rahmandullah Lakanwal, 29, also an Afghan national who came to the US as part of Biden administration’s Operation Allies Welcome, shot two National Guard troops in Washington, DC, on Nov. 26.

A Homeland official could not confirm any connection between the two Afghan men, and it was not immediately known how Alokozay got his immigration status through the Biden era program.

Alokozay (inset) came to the US in the wake of the 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan as part of the Biden policy, according to DHS. He was made a lawful permanent US resident on Sept. 7, 2022, Fox News reported.
