Unsustainable: Colorado Gained 43,000 Illegal Aliens in Just 2 Years

Colorado gained 43,000 illegal aliens in just two years, a report revealed.

The estimated number of illegal aliens living in Colorado jumped from 160,000 in 2021 to more than 200,000 by 2023, according to the latest report by Pew Research Center.

The largest number of those illegals ended up in and around Denver, the paper reported.

The number has jumped even more in the years covered by the Pew report, according to the Denver News Gazette.

The paper noted that city officials pegged the number of illegals entering Denver at 43,000, of which about 20,000 have remained living in the city.

The Gazette also claimed that the influx of illegals has cost the taxpayers of the city of Denver at least $100 million.

The Democrats’ orchestrated inflow of illegals has imposed massive civic costs on Colorado’s citizens, including higher taxes, lower wages, overcrowded schools, as well as more crime and chaos.

Pew estimated that the number of illegals living in the U.S. by 2023 totaled 14 million, dwarfing the previous high of 12.2 million counted in 2007.

Pew added that the wild growth in numbers can be traced to the Biden administration’s efforts to weaken asylum rules.

“The increase from 2021 to 2023 was driven primarily by growth in the number of unauthorized immigrants who were living in the U.S. with some protections from deportation, such as immigrants paroled into the country and asylum seekers,” the Pew report said.

Pew added that about six million illegal aliens entered the U.S. in 2023, double the amount from 2022, as the Biden administration eased restrictions and threw the doors wide open for those deemed as seeking “asylum.” The increases gained year-over-year since 2021 when Biden first started weakening the restrictions.

By 2023, illegals counted for one in four migrants coming into the U.S., Pew added.

How The American Academy Of Pediatrics Betrayed Children Everywhere

The prime directive of Western medicine, its golden rule, is expressed by the Latin maxim primum non nocere – first, do no harm. Unfortunately, the Covid era taught us that from the patient’s point of view, a better motto for our times might be caveat emptor – let the buyer beware.

Every medical student is taught that, first and foremost, they should not cause harm to their patients, and every doctor is familiar with this maxim. It is echoed in the Hippocratic Oath, and it forms the basis for the four pillars of medical ethics: autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, and justice.

This rule, and the core tenets of medical ethics that it underpins, were all abandoned during the Covid era. They were replaced with a brutal, inhumane, and unethical martial-law-as-public-health approach to medicine. The results were unconstitutional lockdowns, prolonged school closures, suppression of early treatment, mandated vaccinations, and silencing of dissenting views. These abuses were justified by constant propaganda and lies from public health authorities, the medical establishment, the mainstream media, and medical professional associations.

Enter the American Academy of Pediatrics.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is the largest professional association for pediatricians in the United States. Nearly one hundred years old, the AAP’s motto is “Dedicated to the Health of All Children.” But as with so much of the medical establishment, the Covid era revealed that the AAP has abandoned its stated mission, and in the process, it has betrayed children everywhere.

During the Covid era, no group was harmed more – or more unnecessarily – than children, who lost multiple years of education, socialization, and normal growth and development. Many millions of kids also received the fraudulently tested, toxic, experimental mRNA-based injections that were coercively imposed upon the population at large. Countless children have been harmed or killed by these products, with myocarditis being only the most universally acknowledged of the many toxicities associated with the shots.

Adding insult to injury, it was known from the beginning of the pandemic that the gain-of-function-produced SARS-CoV-2 virus affected children very mildly, rarely causing severe illness, and almost never killing them. Even at the height of the pandemic, an article in the preeminent journal Nature described pediatric Covid deaths as “incredibly rare.” A very large population-based Korean study from 2023 found the case-fatality rate in children from Covid to be well under 1 death in every 100,000 cases. 

If no segment of the population was harmed more egregiously than children during the Covid era, few medical organizations betrayed their patient population more thoroughly than the American Academy of Pediatrics.

While the AAP has for many years taken questionable stances on a variety of issues, including the ever-enlarging pediatric vaccine schedule, “gender reassignment,” and others, at one early point during Covid, the AAP did attempt to advocate appropriately in the interest of children. It didn’t last long, however, and a review of this incident shows how the AAP, like so many other medical professional organizations, effectively sold its soul during Covid.

The mask charade returns in Ukraine, as medical tyrants mandate masks to save a beleaguered nation from “Nimbus and Stratus” COVID strains

We’re living in a world where the same failed policies—once exposed as useless, humiliating, and psychologically damaging—are dusted off and paraded back onto the stage like a washed-up magician repeating his worst trick. That’s exactly what’s happening in Ukraine right now, where health authorities, clutching their pearls over a few hundred COVID cases, have decided to drag the public back into the dark ages of mask mandates, restricted hospital visits, and the suffocating illusion of control.

The threat that Ukrainians now face? Two new Omicron subvariants, dubbed “Nimbus” and “Stratus,” which sound less like scientific designations and more like the names of rejected Transformers villains. But let’s cut through the theatrical fog: This isn’t about health. It’s about conditioning a population to accept that their freedoms are negotiable, that their bodies are not their own, and that the ruling class will never voluntarily surrender the power they seized in the name of a “pandemic.”

Key points:

  • Ukraine has reintroduced mask mandates in hospitals in the Rovno and Odessa regions, citing a rise in COVID-19 cases linked to new Omicron subvariants “Nimbus” and “Stratus,” with nearly 500 cases reported since August and 1,121 in Kiev alone last week.
  • The move mirrors the failed COVID policies of 2020–2021, when mandates and lockdowns were imposed globally despite no evidence they stopped transmission—only that they crushed economies, mental health, and civil liberties.
  • The same institutions pushing masks and vaccines—the CDC, FDA, WHO, and their globalist backers—have a documented history of regulatory capture, fraudulent science, and financial conflicts of interest with Big Pharma.
  • Natural immunity and early treatment options (like ivermectin, vitamin D, and zinc) were suppressed during the pandemic, while experimental mRNA injections were forced on populations with no long-term safety data—and now, vaccinated populations are seeing surges in infections.
  • The real agenda behind renewed mask theater may be distraction, control, or conditioning for future biosecurity measures, including digital health passes, vaccine mandates, or even another lockdown push.
  • Informed consent and bodily autonomy must be non-negotiable—no government or health authority has the right to coerce medical compliance under the guise of “public health.”

Why are “experts” still pretending masks work?

Let’s get one thing straight: Masks were never about science. They were about symbolism—a visible sign of submission to authority, a way to signal virtue while doing nothing to stop a respiratory virus. Study after study, from the Danish mask trial (which found no statistically significant reduction in COVID transmission) to the CDC’s own meta-analysis in 2020 (which admitted cloth masks offer “little to no protection”), confirmed what common sense already told us: A piece of fabric over your face doesn’t stop an aerosolized virus or a bioweapons that is being programmed directly into the cells through vaccination platforms. Yet here we are, three years later, watching Ukraine’s health bureaucrats dust off the same discredited playbook as if we didn’t just live through the largest-scale psychological experiment in modern history.

Andrey Karaush, head of the Rovno regional council, proudly announced the return of mask mandates in a Telegram post, as if he were unveiling a groundbreaking medical breakthrough rather than recycling a failed policy of mental degradation. Nearly 500 cases in a region of over a million people—and suddenly, the entire population must don the muzzle again. But let’s ask the obvious: If masks worked, why are cases rising now? Why did fully vaccinated college campuses—like the University of Oregon, where 960 “breakthrough” infections erupted in January 2022—see massive outbreaks among the jabbed and the masked? Why did Israel, one of the most vaccinated nations on Earth, experience record-case surges in 2021?

What we’re seeing in Ukraine isn’t a public health response—it’s a power grab. The same institutions that suppressed early treatment, censored dissenting doctors, and pushed experimental injections with zero long-term data are now testing the waters to see how much compliance they can still extract. And if history is any guide, they won’t stop until they’re forced to.

Mystery Hacker Used AI To Automate ‘Unprecedented’ Cybercrime Rampage

A hacker allegedly exploited Anthropic, the fast-growing AI startup behind the popular Claude chatbot, to orchestrate what authorities describe as an “unprecedented” cybercrime campaign targeting nearly 20 companies, according to a report released this week.

The report, published by Anthropic and obtained by NBC News, details how the hacker manipulated Claude to pinpoint companies vulnerable to cyberattacks. Claude then generated malicious code to pilfer sensitive data and cataloged information that could be used for extortion, even drafting the threatening communications sent to the targeted firms.

NBC News reports:

The stolen data included Social Security numbers, bank details and patients’ sensitive medical information. The hacker also took files related to sensitive defense information regulated by the U.S. State Department, known as International Traffic in Arms Regulations.

It’s not clear how many of the companies paid or how much money the hacker made, but the extortion demands ranged from around $75,000 to more than $500,000, the report said.

Jacob Klein, head of threat intelligence for Anthropic, said the campaign appeared to be the work of a hacker operating outside the U.S., but did not provide any additional details about the culprit.

“We have robust safeguards and multiple layers of defense for detecting this kind of misuse, but determined actors sometimes attempt to evade our systems through sophisticated techniques,” Klein said.

Anthropic’s findings come as an increasing number of malicious actors are leveraging AI to craft fraud that is more persuasive, scalable, and elusive than ever. A SoSafe Cybercrime Trends report reveals that 87% of global organizations encountered an AI-driven cyberattack over the past year, with the threat gaining momentum.

“AI is dramatically scaling the sophistication and personalization of cyberattacks,” said Andrew Rose, Chief Security Officer at SoSafe. “While organizations seem to be aware of the threat, our data shows businesses are not confident in their ability to detect and react to these attacks.”

Artificial intelligence is not only a tool for cybercriminals – it is also broadening the vulnerabilities within organizations. As companies rush to adopt AI-driven tools, they may inadvertently expose themselves to new risks.

“Even the benevolent AI that organisations adopt for their own benefit can be abused by attackers to locate valuable information, key assets or bypass other controls,” Rose continued.

DOJ Settles With Ten FBI Whistleblowers Targeted By Biden Administration

Ten FBI whistleblowers who say the Biden administration punished them for their “political beliefs” and for disclosing misconduct in the bureau will have their security clearances reinstated and collect back pay, according to a settlement announced Tuesday.

“These ten (whistleblowers) collectively suffered 12-years-worth of unjustified suspension time,” Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, posted on X after getting word of the settlement. “They were punished (because) of their disclosures/political beliefs. In other words, they were treated like skunks at a picnic. Now they receive justice.”

Sen. Grassley has long advocated for the whistleblowers and has helped navigate the settlements to their retaliation complaints. According to the Senator’s office, under the Biden administration the ten whistleblowers received retaliation that included demotions, loss of pay, and revocation of security clearances.

The legal nonprofit Empower Oversight represented the ten FBI employees. The organization detailed in a 12-page, March 5 letter to the FBI’s general counsel the improper “retaliatory targeting” of the men and women it represented.

The letter also stated:

While it is our belief that new leadership of the FBI has the authority to remedy the wrongs suffered by our clients through management directives and should do so immediately, we are willing to work cooperatively on each of the fronts outlined above in order to explore amicable resolutions in each case.

The New York Post highlighted several whistleblowers and some of their conduct that spawned the reprisals.

One special agent was suspended indefinitely and lost his security clearance after he objected to a SWAT team being used to arrest a January 6 riot defendant on a misdemeanor charge.

Another was suspended without pay and lost his security clearance after being wrongly accused of leaking information to Project Veritas, a conservative undercover journalism operation.

Another agent in New Orleans lost his security clearance when he reported prosecutorial misconduct related to a sweetheart plea deal given to a district attorney charged with sex crimes.

A female FBI staffer was punished for reporting mismanagement and a “gross waste of funds” in connection with how criminal background checks were being processed.

“The actions taken against our clients were in reprisal for protected whistleblowing and/or improper targeting because of their political beliefs,” the March 5 letter by their attorneys stated.

Four of the whistleblowers remained anonymous.

Baltimore Schools Collapse Into “Failure Factory” Under Democratic Mismanagement

President Donald Trump said during a Cabinet meeting earlier on Tuesday, “I think one of the most important things we’re doing at this table is bringing education back to the states, where parents and local school boards run it.”

This leads us to President Trump’s executive order earlier this year to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education. At the time, the president pointed to an uncomfortable truth for Democrats running Baltimore City Schools and City Hall: 40% of public high schools have zero students proficient in math. That damning statistic came from Fox 45 investigative reporter Chris Papst’s coverage of Baltimore’s education crisis. 

For nearly eight years, ZeroHedge has followed Papst’s investigative work through the trenches of school to school across crime-ridden Baltimore City. Papst has conducted all the investigative work through Project Baltimore, in collaboration with Fox45 News. He has spent years reporting on optically displeasing headlines that merely expose how progressive elites in City Hall and in the local school system seemingly rob generations of children of a future for short-term gain to line their pockets and funnel taxpayer funds into the Democratic Party machine, which is nothing more than corrupt unions. 

Many of Papst’s reports have gone viral, including the 2023 report cited by President Trump, which revealed that 40% of Baltimore City high schools had zero students proficient in math.

Venezuela Asks U.N. to Help Stop American Anti-Drug Efforts in Caribbean

Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yván Gil on Tuesday called for U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres to help “restore common sense” and stop the United States’ ongoing efforts to combat drug cartels in Caribbean international waters — which the Venezuelan narco-state deems a “threat.”

Gil met with U.N. Resident Coordinator in Venezuela Gianluca Rampolla on Tuesday. According to the regime’s main propaganda outlet, VTV, the officials “debated the threats facing Latin America and the Caribbean from the United States.”  Secretary-General Guterres has not publicly commented on Venezuela’s request at press time.

“We request the support of U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres to restore common sense. In this regard, we share our concerns about the deployment of US military units and even nuclear weapons in the Caribbean, which threatens peace,” Gil wrote on his official Telegram account.

“In the face of false narratives, used as a pretext to justify aggression against Venezuela, we confirm that the 2025 World Drug Report of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNDOC) has ratified Venezuela as a territory free of illicit crops. Furthermore, the efforts of the Bolivarian Government have been duly certified by the UNDOC,” he continued.

Gil’s meeting with Rampolla and his request to Guterres come days after the administration of President Donald Trump increased its efforts to combat drug trafficking in the region and curb the flow of drugs entering the United States. Reports published this month indicated that the U.S. deployed three Aegis guided-missile destroyers and reportedly “about 4,000 sailors and Marines” to Caribbean international waters to fight against local drug trafficking organizations. Subsequent reports published this week detailed that the United States deployed the USS Lake Erie guided missile cruiser and the USS Newport News, a nuclear-powered attack submarine, to reinforce the U.S.’s ongoing efforts. Both are reportedly expected to arrive in the region by early next week.

Socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro and members of his authoritarian regime have condemned the United States’ ongoing drug-fighting efforts in the Caribbean and have repeatedly insisted, without evidence, that the United States’s actions are instead part of a purported plot to “invade” Venezuela and oust Maduro from power.

Maduro is actively wanted by the United States on multiple narco-terrorism charges and stands accused of being a leading figure of the Cartel of the Suns, a U.S.-identified Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) led by top leading members of the ruling United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) and the Venezuelan military. Interior Minister and long-suspected drug lord Diosdado Cabello and Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino López also stand accused by U.S. authorities of leading the Cartel of the Suns and are wanted on multiple narco-terrorism charges. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced this month that the United States doubled its bounty on information that can lead to Maduro’s arrest from $25 million to $50 million.

In recent days, Maduro has ordered a series of “preparations” for the alleged American “invasion” and launched a campaign to enlist civilians into the Bolivarian Militia that local and international outlets widely reported as a failure. On Tuesday, Defense Minister López claimed that Venezuela would also deploy “large ships” to “combat drug trafficking” in Caribbean waters.

FDA Revokes Emergency Authorization For COVID-19 Vaccines

The Department of Health and Human Services under Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. revoked emergency authorization for COVID-19 vaccines.

“The emergency use authorizations for Covid vaccines, once used to justify broad mandates on the general public during the Biden administration, are now rescinded,” Kennedy posted to X on Wednesday.

The news comes as the FDA, which is part of HHS, announced the approval of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for older adults and children as young as 5-years-old who have at least one condition that puts them at higher risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes, Pfizer said in a Wednesday statement.  

Regulators have issued similar approvals for COVID-19 jabs from Novavax and Moderna. 

HHS revoking emergency approval means that FDA clearance is no longer in place for some 240 million Americans, however “These vaccines are available for all patients who choose them after consulting with their doctors,” Kennedy sai. 

As the Epoch Times notes further, per federal law, the FDA approves products it determines are “safe, pure, and potent.” Emergency authorizations, in contrast, can only be offered under certain circumstances, such as during a public health emergency, and are for products that officials believe “may be effective” in treating or preventing a life-threatening disease or condition.

Updated Approvals

Dr. Marty Makary, the FDA’s commissioner, and Dr. Vinay Prasad, its top vaccine official at the time, signaled the change in May, when they said that the FDA would stop approving COVID-19 vaccines for many Americans absent clinical trial data.

“The FDA can only approve products if it concludes, based on scientific evidence, that the benefit-to-harm balance is favorable. And we simply need more data to have that confidence for younger individuals at low-risk of severe disease,” Prasad said at the time.

In the United States, regulators in recent years have been authorizing updated COVID-19 vaccines annually in a bid to counter waning effectiveness and better match circulating variants. The model is based on the historical approach to influenza vaccines.

Regulators in 2024 cleared updated shots from Moderna, Pfizer, and Novavax without human data, citing animal tests and data from trials for previous versions.

Appeals Court: Pa. mail-in ballots with misdated envelopes cannot be thrown out

A federal appeals court has ruled that Pennsylvania cannot reject mail-in ballots solely because the voter failed to write an accurate date on the ballot’s return envelope.

In a unanimous decision Tuesday, the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Pennsylvania cannot disqualify mail-in ballots solely because the return envelopes are missing or have incorrect dates.

The court ruled that enforcing this requirement imposes an unreasonable burden on voters’ Constitutional rights with little to no benefit in preventing fraud.

The three-judge panel, in a 55-page opinion, weighed Pennsylvania’s interest in enforcing the rule against the Constitutional right to vote. The judges concluded they “could not justify” throwing out ballots over date issues, a policy that has led to the rejection of thousands of ballots that were otherwise valid.

State law requires voters to add a date on the return envelope of their mail ballot. But many voters misunderstand the rule, either omitting the date or mistakenly writing something like their birthday instead.

GOP leaders insist the date mandate protects election integrity, and they have advocated for a strict reading of the law to disqualify ballots without proper dates. Yet, election officials have argued that the date serves no real purpose in verifying timeliness or eligibility.

The appeals court noted in its opinion that accepting ballots with missing or incorrect dates “will not interfere with fraud detection.”

NY Times Slammed For Predictable RFK Health Hit-Pieces

The New York Times came under fire on Monday for running a hit piece against Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s pro-exercise campaign.

The leftist newspaper, as legacy media often does, leaned on so-called experts cautioning “against jumping into a difficult routine suggested by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Pete Hegseth.”

Its headline—100 Push-Ups and 50 Pull-Ups in Under 10 Minutes. What Could Go Wrong?—was predictably snarky.

The piece targeted the “Pete and Bobby Challenge,” a social media campaign aimed at raising awareness about fitness and weight loss.

However, according to The Times and their quoted experts, the exercise “may not be for everyone.”

“For the average person, I would definitely recommend building volume in these movements over three to four weeks before giving it a go,” said Utah athlete Dallin Pepper.

The leftist rag then cited Toronto-based personal trainer Chris Smits to say that the regimen proposed by Hegseth and Kennedy is not feasible for most Americans.

Citing experts is a common tactic in legacy media attacks on conservatives.

Self-described journalists pick a topic, guide the experts toward the conclusions they desire and then publish the story.

This cycle allows them to wash their hands by claiming they are simply reporting.

On X, critics piled on The Times, describing the hit piece as predictable as it was laughable.

“The New York Times really hates working out,” wrote Republican communicator Nathan Brand.
