“Very Concerning Safety Issues”: Trump’s mRNA-Skeptic FDA Drug Chief Was Mysteriously Fired – Right Before This Drug Was Approved

Within three months of firing Tracy Beth Høeg, its top drug regulator, the FDA had approved the first mRNA flu shot, cleared a Sanofi diabetes treatment for children that she had held up, and approved a twice-rejected melanoma drug whose maker went to the White House.

“I’m worried about approvals that we’ve seen recently, like the mRNA influenza vaccine,” Høeg told journalist Paul Thacker in an interview posted Wednesday, citing “very concerning safety issues.“

Of the melanoma drugmaker’s White House meeting, she said: “I guess that’s what you do now if you’re angry that your product is not approved. One has to wonder, is it approved based on the data or do they just know the right people?”

Høeg still doesn’t know who ordered her firing. When agency lawyers came to her office on May 15, three days after Commissioner Marty Makary was pushed out, she refused to resign. The lawyers told her the order came from “someone way above their pay grade.”

The person who supposedly wrote her termination memo denies writing it or ever seeing it, she says. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. only learned of the firing after she was gone, the New York Times reported.

Oman Banned FlyDubai Hijacker From Flying. So Why Was He?

FlyDubai has major questions to answer, because the anti-Israel terrorist who tried to hijack an airplane and crash it this week while acting as a FlyDubai copilot had a ban from his home country on flying because of his beliefs.

We already knew the airline company had messed up because pilots flying to Israel are not supposed to be from countries that do not have diplomatic ties with Israel, and Oman does not. So an Omani copilot should never have been on a flight to Tel Aviv. But now it appears the failure goes back much further, because FlyDubai didn’t even do enough background checking when hiring the copilot to discover that even pro-terrorist Oman thought he was too radical to pilot a plane.

Oman has been fairly consistently in support of the terrorist Iranian regime throughout this whole year of Iran’s domestic and international massacres, so the copilot must be extreme indeed if he is worse. Fox News reported Friday:

The FlyDubai co-pilot accused of stabbing the captain of a passenger jet mid-flight and nearly causing a catastrophic crash was grounded by Oman Air in 2024 after the airline discovered he had been visiting radical Islamic websites, according to a source familiar with the matter… Authorities believe the co-pilot moved to Dubai later that same year, according to the source, who also told Fox News the co-pilot spent a significant part of his life outside Oman, including with his mother, who is from Syria.

According to the source, FlyDubai did not check with Oman Air about the co-pilot before hiring him.

New FBI Records Obtained by Judicial Watch Reveal Thomas Crooks’ Mysterious Chat Thread with Unidentified Person and Drone Pictures

Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch obtained 249 pages of FBI records related to attempted Trump assassin Thomas Crooks.

Thomas Crooks was able to climb on the roof of the AGR building, put President Trump in his scope from an elevated position, and fire his weapon at Trump on July 13, 2024.

President Trump was shot in the ear, and firefighter Corey Comperatore was fatally shot.

A countersniper killed Crooks.

It has been more than two years since the attempted assassination in Butler and the FBI is still withholding documents from the public.

Last month, President Trump said by the time he got into office in January 2025, the Thomas Crooks records were missing, altered or corrupted.

Judicial Watch obtained drone photos taken of a Pittsburgh area arena and a mysterious chat threat between Thomas Crooks and an unidentified individual.

Crooks also received a package delivery from Hong Kong.

Judicial Watch reported:

An FBI electronic communication dated July 19, 2024, concerns a cell phone conversation in the Crooks investigation described as a “chat thread” between Crooks and a recipient whose name is redacted. The conversation occurred between May 21, 2023, and January 3, 2024.

The outgoing messages consist largely of one- and two-word messages or character strings, including:

Hello
Hello red
Hello red
Hdudhdbdbbd
7888ejdj
Yolo
Ddodjjf
890
Hdjd
Djdj

Yup red
Hello
Jhhhuuh
Hhdj
Jjjjjjjjjjjj
Hello red
Red red …

The incoming messages are completely redacted from this text chain.

A report titled “Samsung Messaging Review” is dated July 18, 2024, and details the FBI’s identification of other communications on a Crooks cell phone as “pertinent” to its investigation. FBI agents noted:

Conversation with unknown contact [redacted] 8 February 2023 to 10 February 2023;
Conversations with [redacted] 9 January 2023 to 16 January 2023;
Conversations with [redacted] 12 December 2022 to 26 December 2022.

The FBI also noted text messages consisting of campaign solicitations from then-U.S. Senate candidate Raphael Warnock and DHL shipment notifications from Hong Kong.

“These latest records reveal more pieces of the puzzle surrounding Thomas Crooks,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “The FBI should stop the slow drip of heavily redacted records and immediately provide the full investigative record – especially since the death last week of James Copenhaver, who was severely injured from being shot during the assassination attempt on President Turmp.”

Mystery Shrouds Destruction Of US Spy Satellite

A mysterious breakup of a decades-old American spy satellite has sent debris hurtling through low-Earth orbit, with the U.S. Space Force now tracking the fragments for potential threats to other spacecraft, according to Space-Track.

The satellite, known as USA 32, came apart on September 13 at approximately 5:13 p.m. ET, according to U.S. Space Forces-Space. Officials have not publicly determined what caused the nearly 40-year-old spacecraft to suddenly fragment.

“All tracked debris are being incorporated into routine conjunction assessment screenings to support spaceflight safety,” U.S. Space Forces-Space said in a notice. “No immediate threats have been identified; further analysis is ongoing.”

USA 32 had been circling Earth since the final years of the Cold War.

The National Reconnaissance Office satellite blasted into space aboard a Titan II rocket on September 5, 1988. Public records identify the spacecraft as an electronic and signals intelligence satellite designed to collect information from orbit.

USA 32 has also been identified as FARRAH III, part of a secretive family of American intelligence satellites whose name was inspired by actress Farrah Fawcett.

The satellite was traveling in an orbit roughly 480 miles above Earth when it broke apart. Officials have yet to disclose how many fragments were produced.

That uncertainty matters because debris traveling at orbital speeds can pose a hazard to functioning satellites even when the individual pieces are relatively small. Space Force tracking systems routinely monitor objects around Earth and screen their trajectories for possible collisions.

Exactly what happened to USA 32 remains a mystery.

A collision with an untracked object is one possible explanation for an unexpected satellite breakup. Aging spacecraft can also fragment because of failures involving batteries, pressurized tanks or other components. There is currently no public evidence establishing any of those scenarios as the cause of USA 32’s demise.

Did Thomas Matthew Crooks Try To Kill Donald Trump?

There has been a historic update in the investigation into Thomas Matthew Crooks, the man responsible for firing eight rounds from a semi-automatic AR-15-style rifle at President Donald Trump during his July 2024 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

President Donald Trump made a statement on the status of the investigation into Crook’s Butler assassination attempt last week that changes the entire outlook of the shooting.

The President wrote on his Truth Social feed that the Department of Justice, under former President Joe Biden and former FBI Director Christopher Wray, had largely deleted any information pertaining to Crooks or the assassination attempt before he took office in January of 2025.

The President wrote on his feed: “Everybody knows the Crooked Joe Biden FBI didn’t do what they should have with respect to the Lunatic who shot me in Butler, PA. By the time I got into Office, on January 20th, most of the information was missing, altered, corrupted, or gone. New info was just found! Why wasn’t it seen long ago? This was all a Democrat Plot, to get me out of the Election, that failed. Dirty Cop Christopher Wray should pay a price for the way he handled this assassination attempt, and certainly for the things he said. GOD BLESS AMERICA, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP.”

President Donald Trump’s statement reveals yet another one of the greatest political scandals of our time.

Joe Biden and the Democrat Party, working with elements of the Deep State and former FBI Director Christopher Wray moved to cover up an assassination attempt against their chief political rival. This revelation further raises questions as to the authenticity of Crooks, and who he may have been communicating with prior to the rally.

The President’s comments came just hours after documents from the Senate Judiciary Committee revealed that Thomas Matthew Crooks had his cremation paid for by an ‘anonymous donor’ after his parents refused to pay for his cremation for financial reasons.

That same report also revealed that Crooks had ordered his firearm through the mail, with pieces delivered to a ‘Bob Dole’ at his home address.

The Many Anomalies Of The Near-Assassination of President Donald Trump on July 13th, 2024

I have been reporting on the anomalies surrounding the Crooks Assassination attempt since that fateful day in Butler, of which there are many.

Local officers (Beaver County Emergency Services Unit countersnipers) saw Crooks using a rangefinder and looking toward the stage before the rally in Butler began that day.

They photographed him and radioed/texted the concern. One contemporaneous message around 5:38 p.m. said he was “looking towards stage” with the device.

FBI Director Christopher Wray testified that Crooks flew a DJI drone over the area around 3:50–4:00 p.m. (roughly two hours before the shooting) for about 11 minutes, approximately 200 yards from the stage. He watched a live feed on the controller. The drone and controller were later recovered from his car.

Crowds pointed and shouted about a man on the roof for roughly two minutes before shots.

The AGR complex (the building Crooks used) was left outside the Secret Service secure perimeter despite known line-of-sight to the stage. No one from any agency was assigned to the roof. Local snipers inside the building thought the outer area and roofs were someone else’s job.

Video posted after shooting shows what appears to be Crooks shuffling on the roof prior to the shots being fired at President Donald Trump.

Let’s talk about…RAF Fairford & the False Flag that never was

In the early hours of Sunday morning, police were called to the countryside outside RAF Fairford, a US-run air base in Gloucestershire, after a local farmer reported suspicious activity.

Upon arriving at the scene, three white vans were discovered and five unknown young men were arrested. Bomb disposal units were called in.

That sounds like the set-up for a fairly cut-and-dry false flag, doesn’t it?

But it gets weirder. Let’s take a look at this official timeline, provided by The Evening Standard, and see if you can spot some potential irregularities:

September 1-25 — Locals living in the villages surrounding RAF Fairford reportedly notice increased security around the military site. Heavy machinery and concrete bollards are said to be placed at gated entrances to the airbase. Plain-clothed police were spotted in the area.

Saturday, September 26 – A person walking their dog early on Saturday evening in the vicinity of the airbase is stopped by armed police and told to return home, they later tell the BBC.

Sunday, September 27, 12.45am – Gloucestershire Police receive first report of three suspicious white vans travelling towards RAF Fairford.

September 27, 1am – a farmer from Whelford, a village near RAF Fairford, is driving home from a party along quiet rural roads when she comes across three vans blocking the path to her farm. Turning around, she later reports seeing “a large group of hooded and masked men” at a nearby junction before they quickly disperse.

September 27, 1.36am – After a failed attempt to contact the Ministry of Defence police, the anonymous farmer phones 999 to alert Gloucestershire Police. She is said to post in the local residents’ WhatsApp group that “something very odd is going on in the village”.

September 27, approximately 1.46am – Armed officers, backed up by a police helicopter, surround the vans, arresting five men only 300m from the base’s perimeter. They are detained under the Explosives Act. Emergency personnel and vehicles are seen on September 27, 2026 in Fairford, United Kingdom

September 27, AM– Gloucestershire Police declares a major incident. A 400m security cordon is established around the vans and Army bomb disposal units are deployed.

September 27, AM – More than 80 households in Whelford are evacuated.

September 27, 2.45pm – Counter-terrorism policing announces they are leading the investigation. The five men are also arrested on suspicion of preparing a terrorist act.

September 27, PM – US President Donald Trump says suspects had been “under view for a long time”, claiming they had been looking to cause “big damage” to the US-operated facility.

Monday, September 28, 1.22pm – In a statement on X (formerly Twitter), Iran’s London embassy says it “categorically rejects” what it calls “malicious speculation” about the country’s involvement in Sunday’s events in the Cotswolds.

September 28, 4pm – Police announce that the five men arrested over the RAF Fairford incident will be released on bail. The five suspects are a 24-year-old from Camden, north London, three men aged 23, 24 and 25 from Westminster, central London, and one aged 24 from Willesden, north-west London. Police say they are keeping an open mind about foreign interference, saying one possibility could be proxies “either knowingly or unknowingly working on behalf of a foreign state”.

September 28, 7pm – An emergency Cobra meeting into the security incident at RAF Fairford wraps-up.

September 28, 7.30pm – Evacuated residents in Whelford are permitted to return to their homes.

September 28, 8pm – Trump says he is “surprised” five suspects were released on bail. In comments in the Oval Office, he praises UK police but adds: “I will tell you, I would have said ‘Don’t let them have bail’.”

Tuesday, September 29, 4am (BST) – US secretary of state Marco Rubio says the “hand of a foreign actor” appeared to have been at play on Sunday but claims he is limited in what more he can say.

September 29, 7am – Police cordon remains in place around three vehicles at RAF Fairford.

Now, that timeline makes me want to ask a few questions.

Why were the MoD police not answering their phones despite apparent security concerns?

Why were five men suspected of planning a terrorist attack granted bail after less than 24 hours in custody?

And why is there still a cordon around those vans? How long is required to ascertain if there are bombs inside them or not?

The Accused Assassins from Butler to Utah, and the Parents Who Escape Investigation

If the public is barred from learning about the parents of Lance Twiggs, Tyler Robinson, or Thomas Crooks, then the government must not be allowed to investigate or expose anyone’s family, no matter the crime or who is accused.

ADVERTISEMENT

Foreign involvement has been the focus of respected independent reporters and podcasters, while mainstream media have largely ignored questions about the families of the accused assassin of Charlie Kirk and the accused would-be assassin of President Trump and killer of Corey Comperatore and James Copenhaver. Why not start closer to home, in the United States, with the families? The parents of both accused assassins have documented connections to the behavioral-health industry.

Reports describe Lance Twiggs as a straight-A student in an accelerated program and say his parents sent him money for expenses, including doctor visits and prescription drugs. The public deserves records establishing what support was provided, when, and what the family knew.

Concerning questions have come to light regarding public Utah records linking Scott Miles to Intermountain Support Coordination Services, LLC, where Amber Robinson also worked, and Utah Tech University where Lance Twiggs attended UT SUCCESS Academy, a gifted program. Utah officials should disclose when Robinson and Miles worked with the behavioral provider, Miles’s university role during Twiggs’ enrollment, whether Miles and Twiggs ever met, and what state officials knew.  The timelines and influential relationships surrounding Twiggs are facts that can easily be confirmed by Governor Cox, afterall; he has total access to this information.

These same questions apply to both Thomas Crooks’s parents as well as Tyler Robinson’s parents whose professional backgrounds in behavioral health and recent financial issues have drawn attention. Did the parents supply to investigators education records, mental health records including all psychiatric drug “treatment,” and any participation in special government programs? A congressional task-force report said access to some FBI and ATF records was limited, including a recording of an interview with Crooks’s parents. Officials should identify what remains withheld and under what authority.

WHAT’S HAPPENING: 5 Suicides Reported in 5 Weeks at U.S. Cyber Command in Fort Meade

The United States military’s cyberwarfare unit experienced an unusually high number of suicides last summer.

According to a report by The Baltimore Banner, five personnel who either worked at U.S. Cyber Command or worked closely with the cyberwarfare unit based at Fort Meade died by suicide.

The five suicides occurred within a five-week span stretching from June to July.

Rep. Sarah Elfreth (D-MD), whose district borders Fort Meade, stated in response to the suicides, “This is something that, unfortunately, I think a lot of people wouldn’t say saw coming but knew was going to be a possibility based on the work that goes on at Fort Meade.”

Per The Baltimore Banner:

Five people whose work supported missions at U.S. Cyber Command and the National Security Agency at Fort George G. Meade died by suicide within a month of each other this summer.

The unusual cluster of suicides in June and July follows efforts by the agencies and the Anne Arundel County military installation, where the country’s top cyber warfare units are based, to address the mental health of the 18,000 service members and 41,000 civilian employees there.

Lawmakers, including both of Maryland’s U.S. senators and U.S. Rep. Sarah Elfreth, are asking questions and calling for action to prevent further tragedies.

The nation’s cyber warriors at Fort Meade put in long, stressful hours, often in secure, windowless rooms called SCIFs, identifying cyberattacks and defending against them. The work has been intensified by the war with Iran and the race for new artificial intelligence models. The jobs, however, often isolate them from friends and family.

Mystery Deepens As Spy Aircraft Disappears From US Air Base Without Explanation

An SR-71 Blackbird parked for years on an outdoor display at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center is no longer visible in commercial satellite imagery, and the agency has offered no public explanation of where it went.

The spy aircraft, the NASA 844, has been absent from its pad since at least May 17, according to Aviation Week.

Sources told the publication that the plane was moved into a hangar earlier this year for an inspection, though NASA has not described what that inspection involves, why it is taking place, or how long it will last.

The Serial 61-7980 was the last SR-71 built and the last to fly, completing its final flight in 1999 after the Air Force had already retired the type and NASA had retained a few surviving airframes for high-speed research.

Lockheed Martin produced 32 of the reconnaissance aircraft, 12 of which were lost in accidents and none to enemy action.

Questions about the disappearance of the SR-71 come a week after NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman discussed plans for a new high-altitude, high-speed X-plane and displayed images of silhouette that closely resembled a Blackbird at annual the All-In Summit in Los Angeles. 

“In the service of the first A [aeronautics] in NASA, we are rebuilding our X-plane fleet. The X-59 is researching quiet supersonic flight, but it’s just the beginning,” the NASA head told attendees.

“As NASA recommits to flight test and works alongside industry to push the boundaries of airframe and propulsion design, it will not be long before NASA once again is flying as high and as fast as we had in decades past, and then even more.”

Absolutely Damning Details Emerge About South Carolina Jail Where Mentally Ill White Inmate was Starved to Death, While These Questions Remain Unanswered

Damning new information has emerged about the Chesterfield County Detention Center in South Carolina where mentally ill White inmate who was in there on charges of impersonating a police officer, while several questions remain unanswered.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, a South Carolina inmate who told his family he was being intentionally starved inside the Chesterfield County Detention Center has now been ruled a homicide victim, nearly two months after jailers found his dehydrated, emaciated body on the floor of a feces-covered cell with the water shut off.

Gary Donald “Bubba” Blair, 43, was found lifeless on the floor of his E Pod cell at the Chesterfield County Detention Center on July 24. The cell was covered in inches-deep feces.

Blair also had no mattress and was completely naked. Even worse, he went from nearly 300 pounds at booking to 185 pounds at autopsy.

Blair’s official cause of death was revealed to be “profound dehydration…due to deprivation of water.” Pneumonia, a pressure ulcer on his heel consistent with lying on the floor for days, evidence he ingested toilet water, and profound weight loss were named as contributing factors.

At the center of it all was Jail Administrator Troy Ellerbe, who was accused of racist treatment toward White inmates.

Ellerbe had led the facility since early 2023 before Sheriff Cambo Streater fired him five days after Blair’s body was found. No explanation was given why.
