Rep. Nancy Mace Moves to Ban Lab Puppy Mills After White Coat Waste Tracks 1,500 Dogs Sent into Taxpayer-Funded Experiments

The animal testing watchdog organization White Coat Waste has published a new report showing that Oak Hill Genetics, an Ewing, Illinois, breeder and the nation’s second-largest lab-dog supplier, shipped 1,518 hound-mix dogs to 44 laboratories between January 1, 2025, and June 30, 2026.

Some of the animals were only about three months old.

Recipients included universities and contract labs that hold National Institutes of Health money.

Earlier this month, White Coat Waste’s spending review found more than $225 million in NIH awards for dog and cat experiments since mid-February 2025, including more than $98 million in new dog-testing money at pharmaceutical companies and $11.7 million in new cat work.

The lab list WCW obtained is specific.

The University of Utah took dogs for heart work that WCW says includes tied-off arteries, pacemakers, and electric shock before the animals are killed; Utah has drawn nearly $12 million for those studies and received 50 Oak Hill dogs in the 18-month window. Washington University in St. Louis, with more than $1.2 million for laryngeal-nerve work, took 32. Vanderbilt has taken more than $109 million over decades for obesity, diabetes, and liver studies. The University of Washington implants tumor cells in prostates. The University of Chicago induces severe strokes. The University of Cincinnati kills dogs to harvest larynxes.

Ottawa spent $1.9 billion housing asylum claimants since 2017, but cannot say how many are currently housed

The federal government has allocated approximately $1.9 billion to help provinces and municipalities house asylum claimants since 2017, but Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada cannot say how many people are currently living in facilities supported by the program.

The figures were disclosed in a response to an order paper question submitted by Conservative MP Fred Davies.

The Interim Housing Assistance Program pays provinces and municipalities to provide temporary accommodations and other housing support for asylum claimants. Eligible expenses include temporary housing, coordination, support services and the construction or acquisition of housing facilities.

Despite the program’s $1.9-billion price tag, IRCC said it does not have access to operational or client-specific information showing how asylum claimants move from hotels into municipally owned or controlled housing.

The department also said it cannot confirm how many people are presently housed, how many have left the system or the real-time capacity of facilities receiving federal funding.

Since January 2025, recipients have been required to report the number of asylum claimants supported twice per year.

As of May 2026, IRCC estimated that approximately 15,000 claimants received housing support between January and September 2025. Municipalities and provinces projected they would support roughly 40,000 claimants between January 2025 and March 2027.

Those plans include more than 1,500 bed spaces and 350 transitional-housing or reception-centre units.

Toronto reported supporting 7,030 asylum claimants, followed by Ottawa with 3,490 and Peel Region with 3,170. Other recipients included Durham Region, Hamilton, York Region, Waterloo Region, London, Halton Region, Simcoe County, New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador.

IRCC said jurisdictions must report twice annually on expenditures and outcomes. The department acknowledged, however, that it has no real-time information about how many people are occupying the federally funded spaces.

Bibi: Send More Bombs

As we approach the three-year mark of the start of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Israel has signaled that it has every intention of continuing its massive bombing campaigns against Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, and possibly other countries. And Donald Trump has signaled that he is ready to help. On September 15, the Washington Post reported a decision by the Trump administration to provide Israel with some 40,000 of the US Air Force’s massive 2,000-pound bombs, the largest such transfer to any country in many years.

Bombs Away for Zion

Specifically, the administration announced that it was prepared to “sell” to Israel a $2.8 billion package of US Air Force 2000-pound bombs, consisting of 20,000 MK-84 bombs and another 20,000 BLU-117 bombs. The two versions are similar in size, weight, and functionality. Although both models are considered “general purpose” and “dumb” bombs, they can be configured with various guidance kits into precision guided munitions, aka “smart bombs.” Presumably, Israel will use its own guidance kits which it produces domestically. The administration’s package for Israel also includes 20,000 of the USAF’s I-2000 penetrator warheads, which function as a heavy-duty bomb body for the MK-84 or the BLU-117, effectively converting the munition into a hard target penetrator or “bunker buster.”

Israel’s profligate use of massive munitions on civilian populations has drawn international criticism since the opening weeks of the Gaza conflict. According to CNN, “In the first month of its war in Gaza, Israel dropped hundreds of massive bombs, many of them capable of killing or wounding people more than 1,000 feet away…. Satellite imagery from those early days of the war reveals more than 500 impact craters over 12 meters (40 feet) in diameter, consistent with those left behind by 2,000-pound bombs. Those are four times heavier than the largest bombs the United States dropped on ISIS in Mosul, Iraq, during the war against the extremist group there. Weapons and warfare experts blame the extensive use of heavy munitions such as the 2,000-pound bomb for the soaring death toll. The population of Gaza is packed together much more tightly than almost anywhere else on earth, so the use of such heavy munitions has a profound effect.”

“The use of 2,000-pound bombs in an area as densely populated as Gaza means it will take decades for communities to recover,” said John Chappell, advocacy and legal fellow at CIVIC, a DC-based group focused on minimizing civilian harm in conflict. Such massive bombs are “normally used sparingly by Western militaries, experts say, because of their potential impact on densely populated areas like Gaza. International humanitarian law prohibits indiscriminate bombing.”

Separately, a writer for the Concord Monitor has described the catastrophic effects of a MK-84 2000-pound bomb being dropped on a crowded residential area such as Gaza: “The detonation will create an instantaneous fireball that will lash out at temperatures exceeding 8,500 degrees Fahrenheit. The explosion will carve a crater 50 feet wide and 35 feet deep and hurl 10,000 pounds of rock and dirt debris at supersonic speed. The lethal radius will be a quarter-mile wide and will kill all the people within that area. But the destruction will not stop there. The bomb will rip through thick concrete and metal, creating a wider blast radius. The blast waves will be felt up to half a mile away, rupturing lungs and tearing off limbs. A single bomb will destroy entire city blocks.”

Israel regularly boasts about the professionalism of its military and likes to call the IDF the “most moral army in the world.” Its record in action tells a vastly different story. One curious decision by the IDF that apparently has never been challenged by the US is why it has opted for 2000-pound bombs against “soft” civilian targets, when 250-pound, 500-pound and 1000-pound munitions, which are readily available from the US, are far cheaper and cause far less collateral damage. Could it be that Israel’s real goal is simply genocide, a charge that it has claimed is unfounded

Minnesota Dem Candidate Peggy Flanagan  Claims She’s ‘Appalled’ by Massive Welfare Theft — But ‘25-Year Friend’ Standing Next To Her In Viral Hijab Video Now Under Medicaid Fraud Investigation

Minnesota’s Democrat Senate nominee keeps telling voters she is “appalled” by the state’s historic welfare theft. The problem is the woman standing next to her in that viral hijab video, the one Flanagan called a friend of nearly 25 years, is now running an autism center the state has kicked off Medicaid and placed under investigation.

Nimco Ahmed, CEO of Minneapolis-based Milestone Development Center, appeared beside then-Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan at Karmel Mall in December 2025.

Flanagan, a Catholic, wrapped herself in a hijab for Somali TV and declared the Somali community “part of the fabric of the state of Minnesota.” Then she gestured to Ahmed and talked about their friendship of “almost 25 years.”

That same Ahmed is a longtime DFL activist, a former DFL state director, and president of the Somali American Coalition.

She is also listed as CEO of Milestone. Minnesota Department of Human Services officials have now confirmed open investigations into Milestone and a second provider, Spectrum Therapy Center.

Both were terminated from the Medicaid program months ago during the state’s Revalidate 2026 review. Both providers have appealed the decision, Fox News reported.

Euthanasia bills will be used to mass murder the mentally ill and the poor as part of the Great Reset’s global depopulation plan

The approved mass slaughter of the disabled, the poor, the frail, the old, the unemployed and the unwanted is, with quiet certainty and to the eternal shame of politicians, becoming global. It is part of the Great Reset and it is an essential part of the depopulation programme.

They call it doctor-assisted suicide, and it’s already available in a number of countries (notably and with most seemingly uncensored enthusiasm in Canada and Holland) – but the concept of death by doctor is spreading fast, and like everything else bad that is happening, it is global. Opposing this sinister, contemptible and malevolent new movement is one of the most difficult challenges we face in the years ahead.

Voluntary euthanasia, aka assisted dying, aka “death by doctor,” really began in earnest in Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg at the start of the 21st century. (Switzerland has allowed assisted suicide since 1942, but only in a vague sort of way in that helping someone kill themselves is legal if the person helping does not have selfish motives.)

After Belgium and Holland allowed death by doctor, there was a hiatus of several years and then came a sudden and seemingly inexplicable explosion in the number of countries succumbing to pressure and introducing similar schemes of their own. (The explosion was inexplicable only to those who do not realise that “death by doctor” is an essential part of the Great Reset.)

Euthanasia was legalised in Canada in 2016. In Spain in 2021, Austria in 2022, in Portugal in 2023, in Colombia in 2022, in Cuba in 2023, in Ecuador in 2024, in Australia in 2025, in New Zealand in 2021, in Jersey in 2026, in Uruguay in 2025, in France in 2026 and in recent years in 13 states in the USA. Legislation is being drafted in Germany and Italy.

In Britain, the pro-euthanasia supporters have for years been pushing hard for new legislation in Britain – for legislation which would undoubtedly legalise the mass murder of the weak and the innocent.

The supporters of “doctor-assisted dying” bills have repeatedly tried to push their lethal legislation through the British Parliamentary System. And each time wise, humane heads have ensured that they have failed. (Curiously, although the most recent two attempts received massive help from the Labour Government, the Labour leaders, knowing that patients prefer their doctors to try to keep them alive rather than to kill them, never had the courage to promote the death-by-doctor bills as official government Bills but preferred the proposed legislation to be presented by backbenchers and then given quiet support in an unsuccessful attempt to ensure it was passed.)

The latest “legalised euthanasia bill,” surely one of the most badly conceived, misleading and dangerous pieces of legislation ever introduced into the British Parliament, was, in September 2026, yet again rejected.

The one certainty is that a small number of people pushing this deadly legislation (more than a few of them professionals, employed to promote “assisted dying”) will be back for yet another attempt at pushing through legislation which will, I believe, eventually result in the disabled, the mentally ill and the poor being killed as part of the global depopulation plan which is part of the Great Reset.

This is already happening around the world. And when similar legislation suddenly appears all around the world, and a clear pattern has emerged, I find myself being suspicious about the motives of those promoting the Great Reset.

When politicians or the public reject “death by doctor” legislation, they are told to vote again. And again. And again. And again. Normally once would be enough. Politicians don’t usually bring back legislation which has been rejected once, let alone five times.

Five times in recent years there have been attempts to introduce “death by doctor” laws into the UK. And five times the attempts have failed.

But the promoters of “death by doctor” bills will try again, despite the fact that the idea of allowing doctors to kill patients is unpopular both with doctors and with patients. No one wants this damned legislation except a few insane fanatics working towards the Great Reset and global depopulation.

“Death by doctor” bills are, like those monsters which used to scare children in the 1960s, never allowed to crawl away into a corner and die quietly. “Death by doctor” bills will always be back because euthanasia (or whatever the politicians choose to call it) is part of the Great Reset.

Every time one of these bills gets rejected, there is another vote, and another vote – in the same way that voters who choose the “wrong” answer at the ballot box are, these days, asked to try again until they get it right (particularly if the vote affects the European Union in any way).

The supporters of this dangerous legislation, which will allow doctors to kill patients who have been convinced that death is their only answer, will say that they will only offer euthanasia to a small number of patients who are in terrible pain and who are desperate to die.

And some naïve and ignorant campaigners may think that’s what will happen.

But in every country where doctor-assisted suicide has been made legal, the rules about who can be killed have been quickly changed – with the parameters being extended and the original restrictions brushed aside.

What starts out as an apparently well-meant service for the few quickly becomes nothing less than the mass murder of people who are regarded by the conspirators and their slaves as a useless drain on society.

SOCIALIST GRIFT: Spanish Judge Sends PM Pedro Sánchez’s Wife Begoña Gomes To Trial Over Influence Peddling and Misappropriation of Public Funds

It’s reckoning time in Madrid.

Few heads of government anywhere in the world are so surrounded by corruption scandals, investigations, and prosecutions as Spain’s Pedro Sánchez.

By now, his brother, many of his top aides, his predecessor, and even his wife are all allegedly involved in wrongdoing.

Yesterday (21), it arose that the Spanish Prime Minister’s wife, Begoña Gómez, will have to stand trial on charges of influence peddling and embezzlement.

Politico reported:

“Investigating Judge Juan Carlos Peinado on Monday ordered Gómez and Cristina Álvarez, her aide at La Moncloa, the prime minister’s office, to face trial after Madrid’s Provincial Court cleared the way in July, Spanish media reported.

The case centers on accusations that Gómez used her relationship to advance her career and co-direct a program at Madrid’s Complutense University, while also using public resources and government staff for private interests. Gómez denies wrongdoing.”

Ilhan Omar Introduces Bill to Strip $140 Billion From ICE and Give It to Communities ‘Hurt’ by Deportation Raids

Rep. Ilhan Omar has introduced legislation that would take nearly $140 billion Congress already appropriated for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection and send it to communities she says were “harmed” by immigration operations.

The bill is titled the Make ICE Pay Act.

“For over a year, ICE has been tearing through our nation, leading racist terror campaigns that have caused devastating damage to our cities, to our businesses, and to the lives of our constituents,” Omar said in a press release about the bill.

“In Minneapolis, Operation Metro Surge cost our community nearly $700 million. We have a moral responsibility to end this abuse of power. Our bill will force ICE to pay the price for the damage they’ve left in their wake and ensure that these devastating operations can never be repeated.”

Other cosponsors include Reps. Angie Craig, Jesús García, Rashida Tlaib, Chellie Pingree, Sydney Kamlager-Dove, and Janelle Bynum.

“The psychological and financial impacts of Operation Metro Surge will be generational,” Craig said of the bill. “As Minnesotans begin the long process of healing from the wounds that President Trump’s ICE inflicted, it’s important that we commit to holding this lawless and misguided administration accountable. There is much more work to be done, but this bill is a critical step toward making our communities whole.”

American Taxpayers Funded 2021 Haitian President Assassination Through Fraudulent COVID PPP Loans

The level of government incompetence, or flat-out corruption, under the Biden regime is off the charts!

It has now been confirmed in federal court records that the 2021 assassination plot against Haitian President Jovenel Moïse was directly bankrolled using stolen American taxpayer money funneled through fraudulent pandemic relief programs!

According to federal indictments and official Department of Justice filings, South Florida operatives exploiters of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) schemes funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars meant for struggling small businesses straight into buying weapons, tactical gear, and mercenary squads to overthrow a foreign government.

On July 7, 2021, mercenaries, mostly former Colombian soldiers, with Haitian-American facilitators, stormed Moïse’s private residence outside Port-au-Prince. They posed as DEA agents. The president was shot to death in his bedroom. First Lady Martine Moïse was wounded. Their children were in the house. Haiti has been a gang-run catastrophe ever since.

The Gateway Pundit reported at the time that Florida-based Haitian-American doctor Christian Emmanuel Sanon was arrested and identified by Haitian police as one of the men the plotters intended to install in power. Sanon still faces trial in the United States.

Here is what federal prosecutors and a Miami jury have now established.

Starting in June 2020, while American small businesses were begging for payroll help, Coral Springs fundraiser Keegan Harricharan and co-conspirator Jacob Israel fraudulently obtained about $840,827 in Paycheck Protection Program loans under the CARES Act. Israel and his associates took roughly $126,124 in kickbacks, according to the DOJ.

Denver Socialist Mayoral Candidate Says Prior Arrest for Theft of Food Stamp Benefits ‘Actually Qualifies’ Her to Hold Office 

Shontel Lewis, a Democratic Socialist running in the Denver mayoral election, has a unique spin on her prior arrest for the theft of food stamps. She says it makes her more qualified to hold office.

In 2008, while she worked at the Department of Human Services East Food Stamp Office, Lewis used that job to take public benefit money that belonged to other people.

According to the police affidavit reported by the Denver Post, she searched EBT systems for inactive accounts that still had money and reissued benefit cards from those accounts.

She then gave cards to a roommate to use for food and cash benefits.

Investigators tied her to at least five to seven cases accessed over about five months starting in March 2008.

Although she initially denied wrongdoing, she later admitted it and said she was struggling financially. Initially, she was charged with more serious counts, but pleaded guilty to misdemeanor theft. A felony theft count was deferred and later dismissed in 2011.

She served 18 months of probation and was ordered to pay more than $6,000 in restitution.

$28 Billion in Munitions Later, What’s Left for a China Fight?

Twenty-eight billion dollars buys a tremendous amount of ammunition. It also raises a fairly important question when much of what was fired can’t quickly be replaced.

A new U.S. Central Command estimate puts the cost of the Iran war at roughly $43.6 billion through September 3. About $28.1 billion of that total reflects munitions expended during the conflict, an increase of more than $6 billion in weapons costs in barely a month.

From the Associated Press:

The financial cost is just one measure of the impact of the Iran war, which also is affecting oil prices and the stock market and has led to deaths and injuries of American troops. The political costs will be calculated in November’s midterm congressional elections, with Republicans facing increasing headwinds from the war’s unpopularity.

The latest cost estimate has emerged as the Trump administration pushes for a historic $1.5 trillion military budget proposal. The White House also is asking Congress to approve a $95 billion package that would help fund the Iran war and other priorities.

The Congressional Budget Office looked at the same war from another direction. Its Sept. 15 assessment estimated roughly $38 billion in Defense Department costs through Aug. 1, including replacement weapons, lost equipment, increased flying hours, operations, and fuel.

The dollars weren’t the CBO’s biggest warning.

The CBO identified America’s heavy expenditure of missile-defense interceptors as the conflict’s main military opportunity cost. The agency says U.S. interceptor inventories will remain reduced for several years because replacements can’t simply be produced overnight.

Then, the CBO brought up China.

A reduced interceptor stockpile would become especially troublesome during a conflict with an enemy possessing large inventories of ballistic and cruise missiles. The CBO specifically identified China and noted those weapons would probably play a major role in military conflict involving Taiwan.
