Democrat mayor accused of ‘gaslighting’ entire city after dismissing claims serial killer is behind dozens of bodies pulled from bayous

The family of a man found dead in the Houston bayous has accused the city’s mayor of ‘gaslighting’ after the Democrat dismissed almost 50 bodies pulled from the waters in 21 months as a symptom of ‘homelessness‘.

John Whitmire rejected growing fears of a serial killer dumping bodies in the Texas waterways after dozens were found dead over the past two years.

One death that has baffled investigators is Kenneth Cutting Jr, 22, who disappeared after a night out in downtown Houston in June last year. 

Cousin Lauren Freedman said his body was found by police in the Buffalo Bayou a few days later, about a mile and a half upstream from where his roommates last saw him alive. 

The cause and manner of the young man’s death were undetermined by the autopsy which found no traces of physical injury or drug use. 

Cutting is just one of dozens of people that have been found dead in the waterways over the past few years. 

So far in 2025, police have confirmed 16 were pulled from Houston’s bayous, but records from the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences indicate that number is even higher, at 24. 

Six of those were found over the course of just two weeks in September.  

Police have also confirmed that throughout 2024, there was a total of 24 bodies recovered from the waterways. 

All of these deaths have caused Houston residents to speculate that there may be a serial killer on the loose, but mayor Whitmire has publicly disputed those fears.

Married Accountant Busted After Trying to Kill Trump Supporter Over Sign Dispute While Wearing “Antifa-Style” Mask – Victim Speaks Out Regarding His Harrowing Experience

An unhinged leftist has been caught after trying to kill an innocent Trump supporter over a sign that he did not like.

As the Daily Mail reported on Monday, 38-year-old Benjamin Michael Campbell was charged with unloading gunshots into the residence of 62-year-old Mark Thomas in Nantahala Gorge, North Carolina. The incident occurred back on September 6.

Campbell was seen in video footage raising his firearm from his vehicle’s sunroof and firing multiple rounds.

The Daily Mail reports that Campbell is a married accountant currently living in Atlanta, over 150 miles from Thomas’s home.

It’s unknown why Campbell was in the area.

Thomas spoke to the Daily Mail about his brush with death. Note that Campbell was wearing an Antifa-looking mask at the time of the incident.

Thomas said that Campbell first caught his eye as he drove down his road at around 55 miles per hour before coming to a sudden, screeching halt.

The Republican homeowner said he checked his security cameras, and watched a man wearing an ‘Antifa-style mask’ emerge from his Jeep Cherokee to inspect a Trump banner attached to a bus parked on the Thomas family property.

“He was driving along, saw the sign, slammed on his brakes, you know, had a political trigger moment, and he just had to tear the sign down,” Thomas said.

“He started reaching up on his tippy toes, trying to get to the edge of the sign. I just thought to myself, this is not happening. I don’t believe this,” he added.

Thomas then explained that he grabbed his gun as he feared for his life.

‘I’m a Trump supporter. I have weapons for my protection and my enjoyment, and I keep them handy, he stated.

“You know, what good are they if you can’t get to them when you need them? So I reached over and grabbed my rifle.”

Thomas said he ventured out to his porch while armed and fired a couple of warning shots so Campbell could see him.

But this did not deter Campbell.

More from the Mail:

“By this point, he had ripped the sign off, and he just whipped it up and then threw it down on the ground. Like he was proud of what he just did. I thought, Holy smokes,” Thomas said.

The intruder returned to his Jeep, but instead of heeding Thomas’ warning and leaving, he circled back down his road while raising a gun through the sunroof and firing multiple times, video shows.

Illegal Immigrant Who Was Living With Judge Pleads Guilty to Gun Possession

An illegal immigrant suspected of being a Tren de Aragua gang member and living with a judge in New Mexico has pleaded guilty to “illegally possessing firearms and conspiracy to destroy evidence,” the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said in an Oct. 17 statement.

Cristhian Ortega-Lopez entered the United States illegally in 2023 under the Biden administration and was released into the country, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said. Authorities allege that Magistrate Judge Jose Cano and his wife initially hired Ortega-Lopez for home repairs, later allowing him to live at their guesthouse.

Ortega-Lopez “posted numerous photos and videos of himself on social media accounts with weapons including an AR-15 style rifle, a semi-automatic handgun, and ammunition,” the DHS stated.

Tren de Aragua was designated as a foreign terrorist organization and a specially designated global terrorist group by the State Department in February.

In January, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) received an anonymous tip about Ortega-Lopez living in New Mexico while possessing firearms, which culminated in his arrest at the judge’s house the following month.

After Ortega-Lopez was arrested, Cano allegedly smashed a cellphone belonging to Ortega-Lopez with a hammer and discarded the remains, “believing it contained incriminating photos and videos,” according to the DHS.

Over 1,000 South Koreans Brutally Tortured, Drugged, Enslaved by Chinese-Linked Crime Syndicates in Southeast Asia

Over 1,000 South Koreans were scammed, brutally tortured, drugged and enslaved by Chinese-linked crime syndicates in southeast Asia.

Via Yonhap News.

Horrific video was released showing the South Koreans being electricuted and beaten by their handlers.

A massive human trafficking and torture network has been uncovered in Cambodia, involving more than one thousand South Koreans who were deceived, confined, and forced into criminal labor under Chinese-run compounds.

Many of these victims were subjected to forced drug injections to keep them awake or submissive while carrying out online fraud and money-laundering operations for their captors.

According to Yonhap News (Oct 20, 2025) and multiple verified Korean sources, the body of a 22-year-old South Korean university student was found in Kampot Province after he had been abducted, tortured, and killed. His death represents only one case within a much larger system that continues to operate across Southeast Asia.

Thousands of Koreans—mostly young men and women—were lured by fake employment ads and trafficked into Chinese-controlled criminal compounds in Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar.
Once inside, they were stripped of their passports, confined behind guarded fences, and beaten, electrocuted, drugged, and forced to work up to 20 hours a day.
Those who resisted were brutally punished or killed.

Leaked footage and survivor accounts show victims being forced to scam their own citizens online, turning them into both perpetrators and victims under extreme duress.
Several survivors reported that captors used narcotics and psychotropic drugs to suppress resistance and maintain total control.

How Letitia James’s Fake Marriage to Her Dad Sparked a Lifetime of Mortgage Fraud

How did Letitia James’s claim that she married her father in order to qualify for her first loan evolve into a lifetime of mortgage and bank fraud?

It all began in the spring of 1983, when a 24-year-old Letitia James and her father, Robert James, posing as “husband and wife,” took out a real-estate loan for $30,300 from Kadilac Funding Ltd. for the purchase of a two-story townhome in Queens. The loan document, signed by both, listed “ROBERT JAMES AND LETITIA JAMES, HIS WIFE” in three separate places. This was no clerical error.

At that time, young Letitia likely lacked sufficient income or credit to qualify for a mortgage as a single woman. The fraudulent claim of marriage to her father allowed her to obtain financing she otherwise couldn’t have, an act that meets the legal definition of mortgage fraud under state and federal statutes.

This deception set a precedent for her. Once Letitia discovered that falsifying personal information could deliver tangible financial rewards without consequence, the act of misrepresentation for loans became a lifelong habit.

Decades of mortgage misrepresentations followed. Even after she became the high-profile Attorney General of New York state on January 1, 2019, James continued the same behavior pattern.

In 2020, James purchased a property at 3121 Perone Avenue in Norfolk, Virginia, signing a document claiming it would be her primary or secondary residence, rather than a rental property, to secure a lower interest rate. That misrepresentation recently became part of the criminal indictment against her for mortgage and bank fraud, carrying a potential 30-year prison sentence.

In 2021, James applied for a $200,000 line of credit mortgage from Citizen’s Bank on her 5-unit apartment building in Brooklyn, but in mortgage documents James claimed it only had one apartment unit. Accordingly, James received a lower residential mortgage interest rate she was not entitled to, and avoided a higher commercial loan rate and much higher closing costs.

In 2023, James bought a home at 604 Sterling Avenue in Norfolk, Virginia. Per Sam Antar, Letitia qualified for the loan only after certifying in an updated application that it would be her “primary residence”, even though she lived in Brooklyn.

Man arrested for online threats against ‘No Kings’ protest participants

A man has been arrested after authorities say he posted online threats to kill protesters ahead of the No Kings protest downtown this weekend.

According to an arrest affidavit, 66-year-old Robert Flores was arrested after investigators identified him as the person behind a series of violent posts targeting the No Kings protest.

Flores allegedly used Threads to threaten participants of the protest in downtown San Antonio. In the posts, Flores wrote about plans to “run over” protesters and encouraged others to arrive “locked and loaded.”

One of the posts reportedly said, “I’ll run you f****** over and then go have coffee and breakfast at Jim’s Some of you will not return.”

Another comment read, “Be locked and loaded tomorrow. Killing a Democrat is acceptable.”

Illegal Alien Who Put Hits Out on ICE Agents Finds Out That Was a Very Bad Idea

A Texas illegal immigrant thought it would be a good idea to use the social media platform TikTok to solicit the murders of United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers. It turns out that, at least for him, it was a very bad idea indeed.

His name is Eduardo Aguilar, and he was offering up to $10,000 for each successful hit. His efforts led the 23-year-old to earn an up-close and personal meeting with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Not surprisingly, the get-together did not go well for him, and he was arrested.

The DHS tweet continues:

We are thankful this criminal who had a firearm in his possession was arrested before he could kill one of our law enforcement officers. 

The Trump administration will not back down from these threats, and every criminal, terrorist, and illegal alien will face American justice.

NYC teen shooters, victims skyrocket since passing of Raise the Age law: new data

The number of teen gunshot victims and teen shooters has exploded since the state’s controversial Raise the Age Law went into effect in 2018, according to new data obtained by The Post.

As of last week, 92 people under 18 have been shot so far this year –  96% more than the 47 shot in the same period in 2018, the year before the legislation enacted by leftist state pols fully took effect, raising the age of criminal responsibility from 16 to 18.

The 92 teen shooting victims this year is 21% more than the 76 shot at this point last year, according to NYPD data through Sept. 28.

The number of teen shooters has surged even higher — climbing 143% — with 73 arrested so far this year, compared to 30 in the same span in 2018, and 3% more than the 71 busted in the same period last year, the data show.

Even more troubling is that the shocking surge in teenage gunplay comes as shootings in NYC have dropped 20% overall so far this year compared to 2024, NYPD data shows.

Shooting incidents overall have fallen by more than 50% since 2020, the data show.

Letitia James’ criminal kin have been charged 11 times in 5 years — but keep getting off easy

New York Attorney General Letitia James’ troubled grandnieces have been charged with a combined eight felonies and three misdemeanors in the past five years — but had their charges downgraded or dropped every time.

The women live in James’ Norfolk, Va., homes, which have been the subject of intense federal scrutiny in recent months over mortgage documents James signed — including a federal criminal indictment that has New York’s top law enforcer facing 60 years in federal prison.

Cayla Thompson-Hairston, 21, an OnlyFans model with an X-rated social media presence, was hit with felony charges in April 2024 for allegedly lying about having a felony criminal record when she tried to buy a gun in Suffolk, Va., according to court documents.

Cops said she was barred from owning a handgun due to a juvenile felony charge of malicious wounding in August 2020.

However, the weapons charges were later dropped entirely.

Norfolk Commonwealth’s Attorney Ramin Fatehi, a Democrat, said prosecutors later learned the juvenile charges were pleaded down to a misdemeanor.

Suffolk Commonwealth’s Attorney Narendra Pleas, also a Democrat, did not respond to The Post’s request for clarification on why she dropped the charges.

One legal observer said it was concerning that the charges were dropped entirely — particularly in light of Thompson-Hairston’s violent criminal history.

Trans activist who sued female beauty spa for refusing to give her bikini wax is now WANTED by police

A trans woman with a penis who gained notoriety after suing beauty spas that refused to bikini wax has had a warrant issued for her arrest. 

Police in Alberta, Canada, are searching for Jessica Yaniv, also known as Jessica Simpson, in relation to a criminal harassment charge according to Western Standard.

The outlet spoke with the complainant who said they are trying to confirm if the search extends to British Columbia, where Yaniv is from.  

No court records have yet been released in relation to the case and Calgary Police have yet to comment, so further details of the harassment have not been disclosed. 

In Canada warrants can be forced across different provinces if they are filed under a national database or authorized under a interprovincial cooperation agreement. 

Yaniv first made headlines in 2018 after filing suit against a number of salons after they refused to wax her.

She claimed they had actively discriminated against her for her gender identity and male genitalia. The cases were all later dismissed. 

In 2019 she was also hit with accusations that she had engaged in sexually inappropriate communications with a minor.

One woman, Jessica Rumpel, previously told the Daily Mail that Yaniv had sent her her sexually inappropriate messages when she was just 14.

Those are said to have included questions about whether it would be ok for her to change in front of another woman, and how to go about making that happen. 

Rumpel went public with her claims after others posted about similar alleged incidents on social media. 

Yaniv went on to say that she doesn’t know Rumpel and suggested someone posing as her may have contacted her.

Rumpel however shared Twitter messages from 2014 that appear to have come from Yaniv’s current verified account. 

‘I feel [Yaniv] took advantage of me,’ Rumpel told the Daily Mai back in 2019. ‘I felt [Yaniv] kinda took my kindness for granted.’ 

She said that at the time Yaniv sent the message she was unphased and only later realized the behavior was predatory. 

In 2019 she was also charged with possession of a prohibited weapon after she waving a taser while on a livestream, she received a conditional discharge.
