The former BBC presenter Huw Edwards’ guilty plea to charges of making indecent images of children has sent the corporation into damage limitation mode, raising questions about management’s handling of the scandal and the impact on its reputation.

“The BBC is shocked to hear the details which have emerged in court today,” said a spokesperson for the corporation. “There can be no place for such abhorrent behaviour and our thoughts are with all those affected.”

The 62-year-old, the face of the BBC’s coverage of national events including the funeral of the late queen and the coronation of King Charles and a main presenter on BBC One’s News at Ten, admitted to having 41 indecent images of children that had been sent to him at his request by another man on WhatsApp.

They included seven category A images, the most serious, showing abuse including penetrative sexual activity, two of which showed a child aged between about seven and nine.

Edwards, who is facing a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and will be sentenced on 16 September, was the BBC’s highest-paid newsreader, pocketing between £475,000 and £479,000 in the year to 31 March.

He continued to be paid, including receiving a £40,000 pay rise, despite not working for most of that time, having been suspended by the BBC since last July.

It is just unreal. Edwards continued to get paid the whole time throughout his suspension. With British taxpayer money. Should the British Broadcasting Corporation be renamed as the ‘Paedophile Broadcasting Corporation’ aka PBC?

It is sick.

Sen. Hawley: New Whistleblowers Say Secret Agents Usually Have Agent Stationed on Known High Risks Areas at the Golf Course, But During Trump’s Assassination Attempt NO ONE was There

Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) sounded the alarm over shocking new revelations from whistleblowers regarding the security breach that nearly resulted in the assassination of former President Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club.

According to whistleblower reports received by Hawley’s office, the Secret Service failed to station agents at known vulnerable spots on the course—a violation of standard protocol that left the 45th president exposed during the attack.

The chilling details emerged during an interview Hawley conducted with Jesse Watters on Fox News.

The Senator expressed deep concern over the lapses, noting that agents who were typically positioned in high-risk areas were inexplicably absent the day Trump was targeted by 58-year-old Trump-hater Ryan Wesley Routh.

Routh was armed with a rifle and managed to breach the course’s perimeter before Secret Service agents took him down.

According to the federal criminal complaint filed last week, Routh began his sinister operation early Sunday morning. His cell phone data indicated he arrived at the golf course vicinity at approximately 1:59 a.m., positioning himself for nearly 12 hours before the assassination attempt.

Hawley revealed that the golf course Trump was playing on has long been monitored by the Secret Service, with agents typically stationed at specific locations known to be vulnerable. However, whistleblowers claim that during this incident, no agents were in place to secure these high-risk areas.

“That golf course the President was playing, the Secret Service has guarded that course many, many times,” said Hawley.

“What the whistleblower says is, protocol calls for the Secret Service to station agents along the places in the course that are known vulnerabilities. I want to emphasize, the service has guarded this course many times. They know where the vulnerabilities are.”

“They normally station agents there ahead of Trump’s appearance on the course, but they apparently did not do that this last weekend. The whistleblowers tell me that’s strange. That’s out of protocol. It’s not even clear the Secret Service swept the perimeter before Trump took to the course, which is also a breach of protocol. They want to know why, and so do I. I think the Secret Service deserves to give us answers.”

The shocking revelation comes just two months after Trump narrowly survived another assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, where a Democrat donor, Thomas Crooks, almost succeeded in his plot to kill the former president.

The Odd Connections Between David Becker, Georgia Election Officials, Sunoco Oil And A GA Election Organization You Likely Have Never Heard Of

In telling the story – it’s hard to judge where to start, but let’s begin with David Becker. Mr. Becker founded an organization known as the Center for Election Innovation and Research, better known as CEIR.

Prior to forming the organization Becker was a Director at PEW Charitible Trust and founded the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) with which Georgia contracts to “clean” our voter rolls.

A number of States have already exited their agreements with ERIC citing a variety of concerns including errors, lack of information regarding their operations and security measures.  In at least one case, an official from another State travelled to ERIC’ listed headquarters only to find no evidence of systems or staff at the address listed.

PEW Charitible Trusts, where Becker was a Director, gets its name from the PEW family who made their fortune largely through Sunoco Oil.

Georgia Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger and Jamie Raskin, (Representative from Maryland and member of the infamous J6 Committee) were highlighted speakers at CEIR’s “secret” meeting in Washington DC last year.

David Becker also started EOLDN, Election Official Legal Defense Network claiming election officials around the country needed a method for protecting themselves legally.

Chicago Teachers Told to Give Passing Grades to Illegal Immigrant Students Regardless of Academic Performance: Report

Multiple Chicago teachers have come forward with claims that they were instructed to artificially inflate grades for immigrant students, regardless of their academic performance. 

This explosive allegation, first reported by WGN AM720, has raised serious questions about educational integrity and the challenges faced by sanctuary cities in accommodating a surge of new arrivals.

Chicago, a self-declared sanctuary city, has become home to approximately 50,000 illegal immigrants since 2022. 

Many of these new arrivals have been transported from the southern border, as outlined by The Post Millennial (TPM).

DeSantis Says Feds Being Uncooperative With Investigation Into Second Assassination Attempt on Trump

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said the feds are being uncooperative with the state’s investigation into the second Trump assassination attempt, including by blocking access to the golf course where it happened.

Gunman Ryan Routh hid for nearly 12 hours in the bushes without being spotted before finally being apprehended when a member of his protection detail saw a rifle poking out of foliage by the sixth hole.

The round of gold was not on Trump’s public schedule and was only a last minute decision, prompting questions as to how Routh, who got within 500 yards of Trump, knew the former president would be in that location.

Appearing on Fox News last night, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was asked whether the feds were cooperating with his independent investigation into the attempted shooting and his answer was emphatic.

Walgreens Agrees to Pay $107 Million to Settle Allegations of Falsely Billing Medicare, Medicaid

Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc., one of the nation’s largest retail pharmacy chains, has agreed to pay $106.8 million to settle allegations of submitting false claims to federal health care programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said in a press release.

The allegations involve claims for prescriptions that were processed but never dispensed, spanning a period from 2009 to 2020. This settlement resolution falls under the False Claims Act, a tool for addressing fraud involving taxpayer-funded health care programs.

The DOJ alleged that Walgreens billed federal health care programs for prescriptions that beneficiaries never picked up, allowing the company to receive millions of dollars in payments for medications that were never provided.

Walgreens, which is based in Deerfield, Illinois, did not admit liability in agreeing to settle.

“Due to a software error, we inadvertently billed some government health care programs for a relatively small number of prescriptions our patients submitted but never picked up,” the company said in an emailed statement to The Epoch Times.

“We corrected the error, reported the issue to the government, and voluntarily refunded all overpayments. We appreciate the government acknowledged our compliance efforts as part of resolving this matter.”

Policy Shifts Against The mRNA Platform Rapidly Emerged This Past Week

This week a nurse reached out with disturbing descriptions of some major changes she has witnessed inside the Ohio State University Medical Center (OSUMC) system.

OSUMC s a large and comprehensive healthcare organization, with a significant presence in Ohio and a strong focus on research, education, and patient care. It is a massive institution with over 23,000 employees, including:

  • Over 2,000 physicians
  • More than 1,000 residents and fellows
  • Nearly 5,000 nurses

Lets start off with this screenshot of a webpage from OSUMC’s website which provides information to the public as to where they can get Covid-19 vaccines. 

Wait, what? Ohio State is suddenly no longer offering the Covid-19 vaccine to any of their employees but they are happily offering to inject them into the public? How can such a policy be justified? Why was this change in policy done and why was it done so quietly?

Let’s get this straight. Ohio State’s leadership is now making an institutional decision that employees should not be offerred access to any Covid-19 mRNA vaccine. I am (pretending to be) confused. I mean, if the vaccines could protect patients from being infected by staff members and they were safe to give to staff members, why wouldn’t you do everything possible (like a mandate) to ensure they receive them?

ABC News Issues Vague Statement Following Viral ‘Whistleblower Affidavit’ Alleging Kamala Harris Received Debate Assistance — Fails to Address Specific Allegations

The American public has been left reeling after explosive new allegations surfaced accusing ABC News of blatant bias and collusion during last week’s presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.

Calls for an immediate investigation into the network’s moderation tactics have grown louder, with several prominent voices raising serious concerns over a premeditated effort to rig the debate in favor of Harris.

On September 12, the debate bias claims were further fueled by a viral tweet from the account “Black Insurrectionist,” which claimed to have an affidavit from a whistleblower within ABC News.

The tweet reads:

“I will be releasing an affidavit from an ABC whistleblower regarding the debate. I have just signed a non-disclosure agreement with the attorney of the whistleblower. The affidavit states how the Harris campaign was given sample question which were essentially the same questions that were given during the debate and separate assurances of fact checking Donald Trump and that she would NOT be fact checked. Accordingly, the affidavit states several other factors that were built into the debate to give Kamala a significant advantage. I have seen and read the affidavit and after the attorney blacks out the name of the whistleblower and other information that could dox the whistleblower, I will release the full affidavit. I will be releasing the affidavit before the weekend is out.”

Pharma, Big Ag Lobbyists Help U.S. Scuttle Global Plan to Cut Antibiotic Use in Industrial Meat Production

Targets to cut the use of antimicrobials in animal agriculture were dropped from a key United Nations (U.N.) political declaration following pushback from the agriculture and veterinary drug industry and meat-producing nations comprising the U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

The declaration is meant to commit countries to address surging resistance to antimicrobial medicines — a problem that kills nearly 1.3 million people globally in a single year, topping deaths from HIV and malaria combined.

On Sept. 26, global leaders will meet at the U.N. where they are expected to adopt the declaration. But without concrete targets, scientists, global leaders and politicians are concerned that governments won’t effectively address the problem.

In particular, they will fail to curb the use of antimicrobials in farm animals, which is spurring the development of resistance to critical medicines, they warn.

Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), who is campaigning for improved control of antibiotics in food-producing animals in the U.S., said in a statement, “The massive overuse of antibiotics on factory farms in the United States is a serious threat to public health.”

“Federal agencies have a troubling history of deferring to corporate interests on this issue, and I am very concerned about any role that the United States played in weakening international commitments to reduce antibiotic use in farm animals,” he adds.

Company says Kamala Harris’ debate earrings strikingly similar to its Bluetooth device, offers to make ones for Trump

A tech company has added fuel to the Kamala Harris earrings conspiracy theory after quipping that her debate night jewelry is strikingly similar to the Bluetooth devices it makes — and has even offered to design “orange” ones for Donald Trump.

Claims that Harris, 59, was fitted with clip-on audio headphones disguised as pearl earrings for her showdown against the former president, 78, have been spreading like wildfire on social media in the wake of Tuesday’s presidential debate.

Now, Germany-based company Icebach Sound Solutions has weighed in on the viral saga after conspiracy-minded Trump supporters claimed the vice president was wearing a pair of its Bluetooth devices — the Nova H1 Audio Earring.

“We do not know whether Mrs. Harris wore one of our products. The resemblance is striking and while our product was not specifically developed for the use at presidential debates, it is nonetheless suited for it,” Icebach’s managing director, Malte Iversen, said in a tongue-in-cheek statement to tech outlet Tom’s Guide.

“To ensure a level playing field for both candidates, we are currently developing a male version and will soon be able to offer it to the Trump campaign. The choice of color is a bit challenging though as orange does not go well with a lot of colors.”
