Colombian President Calls On Lawmakers To Legalize Marijuana To Combat Cartel Violence In The Illicit Market

The president of Colombia is calling on lawmakers to legalize marijuana in the country, arguing that prohibition “only brings violence” from cartels in the illicit market. And he’s also pushing other nations to legalize coca leaves for “for purposes other than cocaine.”

On Sunday, President Gustavo Petro warned in a social media post of the “multinationalization of the cocaine mafias,” claiming that there are more cartels today than before high-profile trafficker Pablo Escobar was caught and imprisoned.

“The empowerment of mafia organizations shows the failure of prohibition and the absence of alternative measures to simple prohibition,” the president said, according to a translation.

“My government will maintain full cooperation with all governments in the matter of confiscating cocaine,” he added. “And it has focused and will focus its action on large shipments and on high-ranking cocaine and money laundering bosses worldwide.”

Petro then said he’s asking the Colombian Congress to “legalize marijuana and remove violence from this crop.”

“The prohibition of marijuana in Colombia only brings violence,” he said.

“Trans Army” Urges Followers To Train for Attacks on US Government

A radical transgender group appears to be using Facebook and other social media to coordinate attacks against the US government.

Investigative journalist Andy Ngo drew attention to the group, calling itself “Trans Army,” in a post on X.

“A Zizian-like Trantifa terror group on Facebook with over half a million followers is urging its comrades to recruit ex-military members, stockpile weapons and train to kill and commit atrocities for an insurrection against the U.S. government,” Ngo wrote.

“The FBI and law enforcement have for years neglected violent extremist criminal organizing by radical leftist networks. Those networks are radicalizing and recruiting from trans communities in particular.”

Trans Army calls itself a “non-governmental organization” on Facebook and also has Instagram and Bluesky accounts.

On its Facebook page on Saturday, Trans Army posted a call for transgender people to organize themselves into small cells, train and engage in “rebellion” against the US government, because “legal means” are no longer enough.

“For all trans people in the US. The US government has been overtaken by loyalists that supports dictatorships and threatens democracy everywhere. At this point, rebellion is inevitable and necessary. Anyone telling you that this can be fought through legal means is either a white cis man or privileged enough that it won’t affect them. They don’t get skin in the game, you do. Now the responsibility to do something is yours, if you’re reading this, you are the resistance. Don’t expect others to do it for you. You must act now or you won’t have the chance later.”

The post goes on to detail how activists should organize themselves and pick targets for attacks, under four headings: “Regroup, “Organize, “Plan” and “Act.”

The following information, which includes advice about throwing off law enforcement, is given under the heading “Act:”

“Any action that you do must be decisive. No half measures. Be ready for anything, be okay with anything. Use technology that cannot be jammed and establish signals that you can use in the event of a jam. There’s also tech that can use meshing for off-grid communications (briar is one of them).

“Targets should be communicated at the last minute, and you should use counter-espionage techniques to disrupt their ability to react. Give them plenty of false targets to waste their time. If you believe that you are under surveillance, use that to your advantage. If they are spying on you, it’s a good thing as it can help you disrupt them. Make sure not to let them know that you know.”

The violent activities of radical transgender groups have been headline news in recent weeks as a result of the Zizians, a vegan transgender cult, which has left a trail of death across the United States.

Trans Parent Knifes Young Children – Esophagus Reportedly Severed – Judge Puts Alleged Stabber Right Back on Streets

A self-described transgender Canadian man allegedly slashed two young children and posted on social media about the incident after he was granted release.

Michael Attwood, 35, who uses the name “Alice,” was charged with aggravated assault after allegedly stabbing the two young children in Grande Prairie, Alberta, on Feb. 19, according to a report from Global News in Canada.

The alleged assailant appeared before a Justice of the Peace but was released on conditions until his next court date on March 13.

A seven-year-old sustained minor wounds from the knife, while an eight-year-old endured severe damage to the esophagus and was hospitalized.

That child remains at Alberta Children’s Hospital in Calgary with a severed esophagus and will have to eat from a feeding tube for months, according to a report from Western Standard, a conservative news outlet in Canada.

The outlet reported that Attwood, who towers at 6 feet 7 inches while weighing 250 pounds, was at first held under supervision in a psychiatric ward, but was released some 26 hours later. Although this information was purged after the outlet’s initial posting due to a Canadian publication ban, an archived version of the website still has the details.

Attwood also posted several haunting statuses on social media.

One included a selfie, along with the caption, “I’m pretty sure I met a queen in emergency tonight. She was so beautiful. And I just had these ratty old clothes on.”

The selfie and captions can also be seen on the archived version of the article.

Crenshaw Facing Ethics Complaint After Threatening To Kill Tucker Carlson

James Copenhaver, a former undercover narcotics detective who spent years coordinating and liaising with numerous federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies, and served on the FBI Violent Crimes Task Force, has filed an official ethics complaint against Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw, following him being caught on a hot mic saying he’d “fucking kill” journalist Tucker Carlson.

“On February 24, 2025, during an exchange with a British journalist, Representative Dan Crenshaw was caught on a hot mic making a violent and threatening remark about former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, stating, “If I ever meet him, I’ll fucking kill him.”

This shocking statement, made in an unguarded moment following an interview with GB News, is not only unbecoming of a sitting member of Congress but may also constitute a violation of House rules regarding conduct and threats of violence.

This incident is not an isolated lapse in judgment but part of a pattern of unethical behavior that raises significant concerns about Rep. Crenshaw’s ability to uphold the integrity of the House,” reads the introduction of Copenhaver’s complaint that was filed with the Office of Congressional Ethics earlier today.

Copenhaver, a decorated former undercover DEA agent and member of the FBI’s violent Crime Task Force, made sure to list another five disciplinary offenses by Crenshaw, ranging from failing to disclose stock trades and campaign finance violations.

America’s ‘Worst Mayor,’ Boyfriend Get into Physical Brawl with Angry Activist: ‘You Gone B*tch!’

Tiffany Henyard, the mayor of Dolton, Illinois, was seen on video joining in a physical brawl between her boyfriend and an angry activist who called her a “half-assed mayor” and a “b*tch” who “f*ck[ed] her way to the top” at a recent town board meeting.

The video footage, which apparently also features Henyard’s wig flying off, was posted to social media where it went viral.

n the video, the Dolton mayor can be seen throwing herself into a chaotic fight between her boyfriend and an outraged activist who had moments earlier called Henyard a “half-assed mayor,” as well as a “b*tch” who he said “f*ck[ed] her way to the top.”

The activist has been identified as Jedidiah Brown, according to multiple reports.

Missing the Forest for the Trees: UK to Add More Restrictions on Buying Knives Online After Southport Stabbings

The British government is reportedly planning on banning doorstep drop-off deliveries of knives bought online following the mass stabbing at a children’s dance party in Southport by second-generation migrant Axel Rudakubana.

While critics have pointed to multiple failings of authorities to heed warnings about Rudakubana’s radicalisation, the left-wing Labour Party government appears intent on pinning the tragic stabbing spree — which left three young girls dead and several others injured — at the hands of supposed loopholes in purchasing knives online.

According to The Telegraph, online retailers such as Amazon will be prevented from delivering a knife to anyone other than the person who purchased it to provide a further ID check to prove the buyer is above 18. This will come in addition to a two-step verification, in which buyers must provide identification and a ‘selfie’ picture to verify the ID is theirs.

Rudakubana, who was sentenced to 52 years in prison this week over the Southport stabbings, had reportedly skirted the pre-existing checks by using software to disguise his internet address and identity.

The delivery of the two knives he bought while under 18 was reportedly accepted by an adult at his residence, believed to be one of his Rwandan parents.

Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said that it is a “total disgrace how easy it still is for children to get dangerous weapons online,” adding: “We cannot go on like this. We need much stronger checks – before you buy, before it’s delivered.

New study shows violent video games do not make teens more aggressive

A pair of researchers with the University of Oxford and Cardiff University has conducted a study aimed at determining whether playing violent games cause young people to become more aggressive. In their paper published in the journal Royal Society Open Science, Andrew Przybylski and Netta Weinstein describe their study that involved surveying approximately 1,000 teens and their parents in Great Britain and what they learned from them.

As video games have become more life-like and violent, people are questioning whether teenagers playing such games might become more aggressive. Some studies have been conducted, but thus far, but results to date are inconclusive. The researchers with this new effort suggest past efforts to study the impact of video games on teams excluded a critical factor—the opinions of the parents. To overcome that problem, the researchers surveyed approximately 1000 14- and 15-year-old adolescents of both genders and their parents.

The teens were asked questions surrounding video game play, such as how much they played, what kinds of games were involved, and the ratings of the games. They were also asked if they thought games made them more aggressive, particularly immediately after playing. The parents were asked similar questions regarding video game play by their child and perceived aggressive tendencies.

Stats Show Almost One in Two Young Somali Men in Oslo Commit Violent Crime

Official statistics out of Norway reveal that almost one in two young Somali men aged between 15-24 living in Oslo have been charged with a violent crime.

According to figures from the Norwegian Central Statistics Office, 483 ethnic Somali men in that age bracket have been prosecuted for violent crimes.

That compares with 32 out of 1,000 ethnic Norwegians who have been charged with assault.

As we previously highlighted, a 2019 study out of Norway found that children of migrants commit more crimes than their parents.

According to the data, Norwegian born men aged 15-35 with a Somali family background were 4.6 times more likely to have committed a violent crime.

Men in the same age group with Iraqi backgrounds were 4 times more likely to have committed a violent crime, while the same pattern is observed in Moroccan Norwegians (3.2), Turkish Norwegians (2.8), and Pakistani Norwegians (2.4).

Chronic problems caused by mass migration have again been in focus over the last week as Elon Musk takes Keir Starmer’s Labour government to task over its refusal to approve a new inquiry into Muslim grooming gangs.

Rep Nancy Mace accosted at US Capitol by Chicago trans activist, suspect in custody

On Tuesday, South Carolina Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace was accosted on the grounds of the US Capitol. The suspect was taken into custody. Mace said the person was a male trans activist. Mace has made controversy in recent weeks by insisting that women’s bathrooms on Capitol Hill be for women only. After her advocacy, House Speaker Mike Johnson made that an official rule.

“This attack shows how far the Left will go to silence women in our fight against the trans takeover,” Mace told The Post Millennial. “We’ll push harder, move faster, and stand stronger. Let me be clear: I won’t be silenced—not now, not ever.”

After the attack, she was seen wearing a brace.

Deadly Weapon — The Mental Health Industry’s Lethal Treatments

Spencer Pearson, a former high school football star, was handed a life sentence last week for his 2023 violent and vicious stabbing attack of then 17-year-old Madison Schemitz in Ponte Vedra, Fla. It’s reported that Pearson “trembled and bowed his head in court” as the judge passed sentence.

Yes, as one would expect when one’s life is on the line, Pearson was contrite. And it’s important to note that Pearson’s attorney tried, unsuccessfully, to use the attackers “varied mental illnesses” as a mitigating defense. Of course, anyone would argue that someone who committed such a brutal attack must be suffering from mental illness. But is it that easy? Or is it possible that something else is at play?

For example, lots of young teenage boys’ experience getting dumped by girlfriends and don’t stalk them and then violently, repeatedly stab the former girlfriend, her mother and a stranger who stepped in to try and stop the rampage.

No. Something else is at play here and, based on other brutal attacks carried out by seemingly normal unassuming teenage boys, one cannot help but admit this attack has the odor of a life of mental health intervention.

Of course, it’s difficult to know for sure, but there are clues. According to one article in the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union “while in the third grade, a teacher made his parents aware that he suffered from anxiety.”

Did his parents act on that information and get their son mental health help to deal with his anxiety? Like so many other young boys, was third-grader Pearson “treated” with psychiatric mind-altering drugs at that time? That information has not been made public.
