Trump says Iran won’t execute 8 women after he demanded their release

President Trump announced Wednesday that Iran will no longer execute eight women after he pleaded Tuesday for their freedom — calling it “very good news” in a social media post.

“I have just been informed that the eight women protestors who were going to be executed tonight in Iran will no longer be killed. Four will be released immediately, and four will be sentenced to one month in prison,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“I very much appreciate that Iran, and its leaders, respected my request, as President of the United States, and terminated the planned execution.”

The announcement came hours after Trump extended a two-week cease-fire with Iran as US negotiators await Tehran’s reply to the latest American offer to end the nearly two-month conflict.

Iran’s judiciary denied that the eight women were ever set for execution, claiming that “Trump was misled once again by fake news” and that “some of them have been released, while others face charges that, if convictions are upheld, would at most result in imprisonment.”

ENERGY WARS: Russia Will Shut Flow of Druzhba Pipeline Oil Into Germany

Druzhba means ‘friendship’, which is nowhere to be found these days.

Today, Ukraine restarted the flow of Russian oil to Hungary and Slovakia through the Druzhba pipeline that it kept shut to further boost the election of Péter Magyar.

In exchange for that, the EU was finally able to approve the long-awaited 90 billion Euro loan to Kiev – although it must be noted that both Budapest and Bratislava ‘opted-out’, meaning no Hungarian or Slovak money is part of it.

But there isn’t time to celebrate because, also today, Russia announced that it will close a major oil pipeline into Germany.

The Telegraph reported:

“Russia has announced plans to shut the Druzhba pipeline within nine days, cutting the Continent off from Kazakh oil as it faces supply disruption caused by the Iran war.

The planned closure poses a particular threat to Germany, where the Druzhba pipeline supplies 17pc of the crude oil processed by PCK refinery, which provides 90pc of the fuel used by Berlin’s cars.”

Biden administration sourced discredited SPLC to target Catholics, met with them at least 11 times at White House

The Biden administration worked hand-in-hand with the Southern Poverty Law Center, which was indicted on numerous fraud charges for funding the very “hate groups” they claimed to be fighting. The administration used documentation from the SPLC to target traditional Catholics and worked with the group prior to its adding parents groups to their so-called “hate map.”

The charges come after it was discovered that the group was clandestinely funding the very “hate groups” they told donors they were fighting. The group funded members of the KKK, Nazis, and those who were part of the leadership in organizing the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, VA.

In 2023, it was revealed that Biden’s FBI was relying on documentation from the SPLC to classify traditional Catholics as having an “adherence to anti-Semitic, anti-immigrant, anti-LGBTQ and white supremacist ideology.” The way these Catholics could be identified, per the FBI bulletin, was through their “rejection of the Second Vatican Council.” The sources cited on that bulletin include materials from the SPLC and that discredited group’s list of “Radical Traditional Catholicism Hate Groups.” 

In January 2023, as the Biden administration continued to declare that white supremacy and right-wing extremism were the biggest threats facing America, the SPLC’s director of their Intelligence Project, Susan Corke, met with the White House’s National Security Council’s counterterrorism director John Picarelli. It was shortly thereafter that the SPLC added Moms for Liberty, Parents Defending Education, and other parent groups to their “hate map.”

It turns out that the SPLC met with both Biden and his White House officials 11 times by 2023, which was just two years into his presidential term. The Biden administration brought the SPLC in to serve on their antisemitism coalition.

Multiple members of the SPLC, including LaShawn Warren, Brandon Jones who was the SPLC director of Political Campaigns, head of the board of directors Joseph Levin, board member Joshua Bekenstein, Kirsten Johnson of the SPLC’s Economic Justice Practice Group, and director of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Mississippi state office Waikinya Clanton, all met with the Biden administration during his first two years in office.

Ilhan Omar’s California Winery LLC Dissolved Just 9 Days After She Scrubbed Millions from Her Financial Disclosures

The Minnesota Democrat’s husband’s questionable California winery LLC has been officially dissolved, just nine days after she quietly amended her financial disclosures to slash her reported wealth from millions down to peanuts.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Omar’s husband Tim Mynett’s ESTCRU LLC (also known as eStCru Wines) was at the heart of a suspicious asset explosion that rocketed the couple’s net worth to as high as $30 million before suddenly vanishing into thin air.

In February, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer sent a letter to Omar’s husband, Timothy Mynett, about the sudden wealth.

The letter reads:

Financial disclosure forms, filed by your wife Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, show eStCru LLC and Rose Lake Capital LLC, which you hold ownership stakes in, went from being worth as much as $51,000 in 2023 to as much as $30 million in 2024.

Given that these companies do not publicly list their investors or where their money comes from, this sudden jump in value raises concerns that unknown individuals may be investing to gain influence with your wife.

Media reports further suggest that you may have raised money from investors using misleading information, meaning some of those funds may have been obtained improperly. 3 As a result, the Committee requests documents and communications related to the finances of eStCru LLC (eStCru) and Rose Lake Capital LLC (Rose Lake Capital).

Representative Omar’s 2023 Financial Disclosure Report, filed on May 14, 2024, lists a stake in your winery eStCru worth between $15,001 and $50,000, and a stake in your venture capital management firm Rose Lake Capital worth between $1 and $1000, as well as various retirement accounts, making your combined total listed assets worth no more than $208,000.

Representative Omar’s 2024 Financial Disclosure Report, filed on May 14, 2025, lists a stake in eStCru worth between $1,000,001 and $5,000,000, and a stake in Rose Lake Capital worth between $5,000,001-$25,000,000, making both of your assets potentially worth more than $30 million, an increase of more than 140 times in just one year.

There are serious public concerns about how your businesses increased so dramatically in value only a year after reporting very limited assets.

After receiving the letter, Omar quietly amended her financial disclosure on March 26, 2026, dramatically revising her reported wealth downward, from what had appeared to be potentially millions in assets to a far more modest range between $18,000 and $95,000.

Her office scrambled to explain away the massive discrepancy, blaming what they described as an “accounting error” tied to her husband’s business liabilities. According to Omar’s team, the original filing failed to properly deduct debts, creating what they called a “misleading picture of far greater wealth.”

And what happened next? On April 4, 2026, just nine days after that amended filing, ESTCRU LLC was officially terminated.

Minnesota State Senator Michael Holmstrom sounded the alarm on X, revealing that a company tied to Omar’s financial disclosures, ESTCRU LLC, a California-based winery venture, was abruptly shut down.

Attached to his post was the official “Certificate of Cancellation – LLC Termination” for ESTCRU LLC, Entity Number 202018810577. The state of California has now accepted and filed the termination.

The LLC is no longer active. Its powers, rights, and privileges are terminated. The “business” has been formally dissolved and canceled.

The document was signed by her husband Tim Mynett’s business partner, former DNC adviser Will Hailer.

Pink-haired transgender lawmaker scolded anyone who dared to use her old ‘deadname’ – now her very embarrassing secret has been revealed

Minnesota‘s first transgender lawmaker has been accruing traffic citations under her former name despite being an outspoken critic of anyone who dared to call her that, court records revealed.

Democrat Representative Leigh Finke, 44, has shamed anyone who practices ‘deadnaming,’ or referring to a transgender or non-binary person by their birth name without consent.

In one instance, she wrote on Facebook that using a trans person’s deadname is an ‘expression of hate toward transgender people.’

In 2023, she told Fox 9, ‘It’s impossible to take seriously the idea that we are speaking out of turn at a time when our rights are being taken away; our lives are being belittled, mocked, dehumanized constantly. 

‘Across the nation in state legislatures, in the capitol, now in DC, we are just hearing constant misgendering, deadnaming, humiliating language.’ 

Finke legally changed her name and sex in July 2020, court records viewed by the Daily Mail show.

She changed her name from Christopher Leigh Finke to Leigh Dawn Finke, and her sex from male to female. 

However, court records also show that Finke has received at least three traffic tickets under her ‘deadname’ between 2023 and 2025.

RFK Jr. Buries Raphael Warnock With a Truth Bomb When the Democrat Senator Attacks Him for Making Cuts to the ‘Rabies Office’

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared on Capitol Hill for two hearings on Wednesday and embarrassed leftist Senator Raphael Warnock (D-GA) when he tried to outsmart him on health matters.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, RFK Jr. first testified before the Senate Finance Committee on his agency’s budget and the deals that the Trump Administration struck with drug companies to lower prices.

Late in the hearing, Warnock decided to test RFK Jr.’s knowledge of rabies, one of the most deadly diseases on the planet.

Warnock started off by trying to ‘educate’ the HHS Secretary on rabies, which can be spread by numerous animals to humans, including raccoons, foxes, and skunks.

Of course, RFK Jr. already knew this information.

Then, Warnock decided to attack RFK Jr. for making budget cuts to the ‘rabies office.’ He said that only one person is handling issues concerning the disease at the CDC rabies division in Atlanta, Georgia.

But what the Georgia senator neglected to say was that rabies cases in humans are EXTREMELY rare, with only a couple of cases per year on average. Thus, this seems like a job one person can handle.

RFK Jr. left Warnock stammering when he dropped this truth bomb.

WARNOCK: You’re gutting the very offices that keep American families safe from disturbing and deadly infectious diseases.

RFK JR: Senator, there’s one to three rabies cases a year in the United States. I think one person manning that office full-time can handle that traffic.

WARNOCK: Here, uh, here, uh…

Netanyahu and Zionism is Pushing the World Towards Economic Catastrophe

As has often been the case since the Iran War has started, the U.S. corporate media, whether “left” leaning or “right” leaning, is reporting news on this war that is far different from what is being reported outside of the U.S. media.

So here are two very recent interviews that are both only about 30 minutes long, giving the “other side” of what actually happened this past weekend with the negotiations in Islamabad, which were “led” by JD Vance, as well as views on the alleged current “blockade” of the Strait of Hormuz by the U.S. military.

The Wall Street Journal had actually published a story stating that the U.S. was going to assassinate the delegation from Iran, which forced them to return to Iran in secret after the meetings ended.

Professor Seyed Marandia, who lives and teaches in Tehran and is a U.S. citizen, was actually at the negotiations, and at the time of this writing this is his most recent interview with Glenn Diesen.

He states that the Iranians fully expect a resumption of attacks by Israel and the U.S., and that they are preparing for it.

He stated “Netanyahu and Zionism is pushing the world towards economic catastrophe,” and he also stated that if they attack Iran’s energy infrastructure again, they will start attacking the infrastructure of the rich Arab Gulf States, starting with the UAE, which he states that they can completely destroy in 1 day.

Marandia also states something that I can personally confirm is true, which is that the Arab States around the Arab Peninsula are heading into their summer season, where it gets unbearably hot, where during the day nobody does anything outside, as it is too hot, and that U.S. soldiers would never survive day operations in such heat.

Iran’s summers, by contrast, do not get that hot, and he said that in Tehran today one can look at the mountains to the north where there is still snow on them, and that one needs a jacket to go outside.

I lived in Saudi Arabia for almost 4 years back in the 1990s, and stayed in the Kingdom through one summer, as I was teaching English at their university, and I made double pay for teaching during the summer as most foreign teachers returned to their home countries in the summer.

Air conditioning during those times is a life and death situation, and when someone’s air conditioning went out in the faculty housing, it was imperative that it was fixed immediately, and they had a large staff running the energy infrastructure, mostly Filipinos at that time.

So when Marandi says that if the power goes down in any of these Gulf States during the hot season EVERYONE will need to leave, he is not lying, but speaking the truth.

In the second interview between Pepe Escobar and Judge Napolitano, Escobar states that the Iranians will NOT return to Islamabad for the second round of “negotiations,” but will only agree to a place in either Russia or China.

Russian diplomat Sergey Lavrov is in Beijing today, allegedly assuring China that Russia will continue supplying oil to China if they cannot get it through the Strait of Hormuz.

Escobar also states that there is no actual blockade of the Strait of Hormuz at the present time.

RFK Jr. Torches Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren During Hearing on TrumpRx Drug Price Cuts

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. appeared on Capitol Hill for two hearings on Wednesday.

RFK Jr. first testified before the Senate Finance Committee on his agency’s budget and the deals that the Trump Administration struck with drug companies to lower prices.

Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren tried to go after RFK Jr. over TrumpRx’s price cuts, but he shut her down.

In February, President Trump launched ‘TrumpRx’ to lower drug prices.

“Today, President Donald J. Trump announced the launch of TrumpRx.gov. Through the website, patients will be able to access large discounts on many of the most popular and highest-priced medicines in the country, paying prices in line with the lowest paid by other developed nations (known as the most-favored-nation, or MFN, price),” the White House announced in February.

“Today’s launch features drugs made by the first five manufacturers to reach MFN pricing deals with the Trump Administration: AstraZeneca, Eli Lilly, EMD Serono, Novo Nordisk, and Pfizer,” the White House said.

“Additional drugs from other companies that have signed MFN pricing deals will be made available through TrumpRx.gov in the coming months,” they said.

TrumpRx lowers prices for popular weight loss drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy, inhalers, fertility drugs, and insulin.

Elizabeth Warren, a corrupt and worthless Democrat who has spent decades enriching herself by lying about being a Native American, tried to come at RFK Jr. about TrumpRx.

“If these pharma deals are so good, show them!” Warren said to RFK Jr.

“You had the power to make this deal yourself! Why didn’t you do that? We did this because you refuse to do it!” RFK Jr. said.

“You have a lot more power to negotiate than we do! We got the lowest prices in history,” he said.

Elizabeth Warren hit back and claimed TrumpRx is making things worse for the American people.

“Millions of people who are using Trump Rx disagree with you!” RFK Jr. said.

Possible Link Between RSV Vaccine During Pregnancy and Health Problems: Study

Pfizer’s vaccine against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) may be associated with certain health problems in pregnant women, including hypertensive disorders, researchers said in a study published on April 21.

Ashley Michnick, a research scientist at Harvard Medical School, and researchers with Pfizer and other entities analyzed data from five systems, including CVS Health and Kaiser Permanente Northwest.

They analyzed pregnancies that occurred from Sept. 22, 2023, through Aug. 9, 2024, and found that pregnant mothers received Pfizer’s vaccine between 32 and 36 weeks of gestation. The number of included pregnancies was 13,619.

Compared with pregnant women who received a different vaccine, such as an influenza shot, during the same gestational weeks during the study period, the women who received the RSV vaccine were more likely to have pregnancy-associated hypertensive disorders, such as inpatient gestational hypertension.

The risk was also higher when the RSV vaccine recipients were compared with women who had given birth in previous years, or a historical comparator group.

The researchers also recorded an elevated risk for premature rupture of membranes among RSV vaccine recipients.

Trump: “I Expect to Be Bombing” Iran if No Deal Reached Before Ceasefire Ends. POTUS Says Israel Didn’t Talk Him Into War.

As the U.S-Iran peace talks that are scheduled to begin in Pakistan appear suspended, President Trump told CNBC’s Squawk Box he was “ready to go” and begin bombing the country again if it does not open the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran has not committed to renew talks with Vice President J.D. Vance and his negotiators, and Vance, Axios reported, has not left for Islamabad. The ceasefire that temporarily ended the U.S.-Israeli bombing campaign ends tomorrow.

Trump said the U.S. military used the lull in bombing to restock its munitions, and the military “is raring to go.”

On Truth Social yesterday, Trump again denied that Israel led him into war with Iran, as reported by The New York Times and others.
