World War III!

Trump is now the world's biggest war criminal.

The United States attacked Iran.

This is the end of the U.S. as a superpower.

Tonight, President Donald J. Trump announced the U.S. had struck three nuclear facilities in Iran. 

George W. Bush, Joe Biden and Donald J. Trump will go down in history as the worst U.S. presidents in modern history.

At the behest of Israel, the president bragged about committing a war crime on baseless allegations and fighting words.

Trump has abandoned Make America Great Again. It is Israel First for the president and Congress. 

Trump said that Iran’s major nuclear enrichment facilities were “completely and totally obliterated” after the United States dropped bombs on them Saturday night — and warned that American forces would carry out further hostilities if Tehran does not negotiate a peace settlement.

The airstrikes, which targeted the Fordo, Natanz and Esfahan nuclear sites, are the first time the United States has conducted a direct military attack on Iran, and they further escalated a military conflict between Iran and Israel that began on June 13.

Trump's claim about the result of the strikes could not be independently confirmed.

“There will be either peace or there will be tragedy,” Trump said in a nationally televised address from the White House, with Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio flanking him. “Remember there are many targets left. ... [I]f peace does not come quickly, we will go after those other targets with precision, speed and skill.”

Trump first announced the strikes in a Truth Social media post at 7:50 p.m. ET.

At the White House, Trump thanked God, the military and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying U.S. officials "worked as a team" with their counterparts in Tel Aviv.

Netanyahu, in his first public comments on the U.S. strikes, congratulated Trump for his “bold decision to target Iran’s nuclear facilities with the awesome and righteous might” of the American military.

The decision will “change history,” Netanyahu said in an English-language video statement.

In a brief phone interview with NBC News' Kristen Welker, Trump called the strikes a “great success” and a “complete and total success.”

A gamble by Trump

Trump’s decision to bomb Iran represents a gamble that U.S. military action against Tehran’s nuclear program can remain limited in scope and that the United States will not be drawn into another open-ended war in the Middle East.

Trump and his aides appear to have calculated that the U.S. action did not mean opening the door to a long-term military assault on Iran and that a one-off strike could deal a decisive blow to Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

Walk the dog. These war criminals are going to drag the world to war.

U.S. military commanders have not yet outlined the possible damage to Iran’s nuclear sites, including a deeply buried facility in Fordo believed to hold enriched uranium and sophisticated centrifuges. If the bombing was less than precise or if Iran moved key nuclear-related hardware, U.S. aircraft could still be ordered back to finish the job.

Even if the bombing raids hit their targets, the decision to attack Iran carries risks and uncertainties.

If Trump’s gamble pays off, Iran’s nuclear capabilities will be set back years and possibly decades. Iran could find itself severely weakened, having suffered a series of devastating blows over the past year from Israel’s military and intelligence operations.

But Iran has a history of striking at more powerful adversaries by using asymmetric tactics, including terrorist attacks. In 1983, Washington accused Iran of using Lebanese Hezbollah militants to carry out lethal bombings of a Marine Corps barracks and the U.S. Embassy in Beirut.

With both Israel and the United States bombing its territory and Israel’s government suggesting Iran’s government might collapse, Iran’s political leaders are likely to see the current conflict as a fight for the survival of their regime.

Iran has said it has a right to self-defense if it is attacked, and it could be looking to strike at U.S. bases or embassies in and outside the region. Iran still has ballistic and cruise missiles that it could try to fire at American bases in the Persian Gulf or elsewhere, a scenario the U.S. military has long prepared for.

It’s not clear whether Iran could retaliate with missile attacks on U.S. or allied forces in the Gulf. Israel has managed to intercept many of the ballistic missiles and drones that Iran has fired over the past week, though its air defenses are coming under increasing strain.

Iranian officials could choose a more drastic response by planting sea mines or attacking commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz, the narrow waterway between the Persian Gulf and the Indian Ocean through which a fifth of the world’s oil passes.

Such a move could cause havoc in the oil markets and the global economy. But it would also disrupt Iran’s own oil exports, depriving the country’s struggling economy of badly needed oil revenue. And it could antagonize other countries that have so far stayed out of the conflict.

Iran had long counted on its proxy forces in the region as a defensive ring to fend off its enemies and deter any possible attack by Israel or the United States.

But its most important ally, Hezbollah in Lebanon, has been devastated by a series of Israeli attacks and assassinations. And in the Palestinian enclave of Gaza, Hamas — which Iran armed and trained — has been badly weakened and its leaders have been killed.

But Tehran still has Shiite militias in Iraq and Houthi militants in Yemen that could possibly target American forces, including in Syria.

The New York Police Department said in a statement that it was putting officers at sensitive locations around the city in the wake of the U.S. action.

“We’re tracking the situation unfolding in Iran,” the statement said. “Out of an abundance of caution, we’re deploying additional resources to religious, cultural, and diplomatic sites across NYC and coordinating with our federal partners.”

Partisan reaction

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., attacked Trump's decision to strike Iran, saying that “the risk of war has now dramatically increased.”

“President Trump misled the country about his intentions, failed to seek congressional authorization for the use of military force and risks American entanglement in a potentially disastrous war in the Middle East,” Jeffries said in a statement.

Tommy Vietor, who was a National Security Council spokesperson during the Obama administration, warned of retaliatory attacks by Tehran against the United States.

“Iran might retaliate today, tomorrow or in months. Or a year from now, Iran or its proxies might blow up a bus filled with American tourists in Cyprus,” Vietor wrote on social media. “No one knows what comes next. Bombing Iran started something that we no longer have the capacity to predict or contain.”

Republican members of Congress said on social media that they supported Trump’s decision to bomb the three nuclear sites in Iran.

Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said, “Good. This was the right call. The regime deserves it.”

Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas said the attack was necessary. “The prospect of the Iranian regime acquiring nuclear weapons represents the most acute immediate threat to America and our allies,” he said.

Sen. John Cornyn of Texas called Trump’s actions “courageous and correct,” and Sen. Rick Scott of Florida said the president’s actions show “what peace through strength looks like.”

Iran will break Israel and the United States.

Focus on Fordo site

The facility at Fordo, Iran’s most advanced, is built inside a mountain and believed to be safe from any bomb except the United States’ GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, a “bunker buster” weapon.

Trump did not say which type of bombs were used, but it was widely expected that the GBU-57 would be used. Earlier in the day, several American B-2 stealth bombers, which are the only plane that can carry GBU-57 bombs, which weigh 30,000 pounds, took off from Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri.

Trump's turn

NBC News has reported that Trump initially opposed Israel’s taking military action against Iran, favoring negotiations over bombing. But in the days before Israel's strikes on Iran, he became convinced that Israel’s heightened anxiety over Iran’s nuclear enrichment capabilities was warranted.

After a pivotal June 8 briefing from the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Air Force Gen. Dan Caine, about Israel’s plans and U.S. options for supporting its operation, Trump gave tacit approval for Israel to conduct strikes and for the U.S. to provide limited backing.

Even though many of his MAGA allies have advocated against U.S. military involvement, Trump’s rhetoric about Iran has steadily escalated since Israel’s bombing campaign began.

On Tuesday, he called for Iran’s “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!” on Truth Social.

Wednesday morning, he said he was still considering U.S. strikes.

“I may do it. I may not do it,” he told reporters outside the White House. “Nobody knows what I’m going to do.”

It Was Terror In The Sqaud!

The Diddy curse comes to Fat Joe.

Rapper Cuban Link is going to have a field day. 50 Cent going make this a trolling bonanza. 

Cuban Link, the rapper and podcaster is going to take joy in rival and former ally Fat Joe's downfall. The longtime rapper, podcaster, media mogul and producer is accused of sex trafficking, underage sex with minors and sexual abuse of his former crew.

Sean "Puffy" Combs problems will likely be on Fat Joe, Ye (Kanye West), Rick Ross, Swizz Beatz, Bryan "Baby" Williams (Birdman), Shawn Corey Carter (Jay-Z), Clive Davis, Andre Herrell, Antoino "LA" Reid, Bobby Brown, Aaron Hill, Teddy Riley, Raymond Scott (formerly Benzino) and so many others.

Joseph Antonio Cartagena (known as Fat Joe or Joey Crack) is accused of forcing his former hype man to engage in thousands of sex acts with women in a $20 million federal lawsuit that also alleges he was underpaid, denied songwriting credits and threatened.

Terrance “T.A.” Dixon filed the complaint against Fat Joe, members of his inner circle and Roc Nation in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on Thursday.

An attorney for Fat Joe said the allegations are “complete fabrications” intended to damage the rapper’s reputation.

The lawsuit says that Dixon was the rapper’s hype man, or onstage entertainer, but that he also contributed as his lyricist, background vocalist, bodyguard and “creative collaborator” from about 2005 to 2022.

It alleges that Dixon wrote or co-wrote dozens of songs, including “Congratulations,” “Ice Cream,” “No Problems” and “Black Out.”

“Plaintiff contributed lyrics, melodies, vocal phrasing, and conceptual design to these works — substantially shaping their final form as distributed to the public,” the suit says.

The 157-page document, which comes with a “trigger warning” at the top, also details allegations of sexual abuse.

It alleges that Cartagena routinely took women back to his hotel rooms and forced Dixon to engage in sexual acts with them, sometimes in front of members of the rapper’s inner circle. According to the suit, Cartagena “frequently arranged and orchestrated these encounters, intentionally creating scenarios designed to reinforce Plaintiff’s complete submission.”

It accuses Cartagena of remaining in the room to watch, record and “provide explicit direction and commands.”

Dixon did not want to participate in the acts, the lawsuit says, but he did so “solely out of fear of immediate retaliation.” During one alleged incident, Dixon refused, and Cartagena canceled his flight home, stranding him with no money, the suit says.

Dixon estimated that over 16 years, he was “coerced into more than 4,000 sexual acts to maintain his standing within the enterprise.”

The lawsuit also alleges that Dixon witnessed Cartagena engage in sexual relations with 15- and 16-year-old girls.

Cartagena’s lawyer, Joseph Tacopina, said the lawsuit is a “blatant act of retaliation” and a “desperate attempt to deflect attention” from a lawsuit the rapper filed in April accusing Dixon and his attorney, Tyrone Blackburn, of extortion, slander and defamation.

Cartagena’s lawsuit says that things ended amicably with Dixon in 2019 and that it was not until years later that Dixon alleged that he had been underpaid while he was working with the rapper.

The suit says Cartagena compensated Dixon “handsomely” for assisting him on tour and denies Dixon’s allegations that the rapper had sexual relations with minors. It further accuses Dixon and Blackburn of trying to extort Cartagena for money.

“We didn’t just sue a disgruntled former employee trying to revive a false claim from 15 years ago — we sued the lawyer behind it all,” Tacopina said in a statement.

“The allegations against Mr. Cartagena are complete fabrications — lies intended to damage his reputation and force a settlement through public pressure. Mr. Cartagena will not be intimidated,” he said. “We have taken legal action to expose this fraudulent campaign and hold everyone involved accountable.”

In response, Blackburn said Friday that Cartagena “is desperate and grasping for straws.”

“We met with law enforcement; let’s wait and see who they believe,” he said.

The lawsuit says Dixon suffered severe emotional injuries, including chronic anxiety, debilitating fear and symptoms consistent with post-traumatic stress disorder. He remains in trauma-informed therapy, the suit says.

In the wake of 50's feud with Ja Rule, he targeted Nas, Fat Joe, Jadakiss, Shyne and The Game. It was alleged that Fat Joe was looking to break heads on 50.

In the lawsuit, Dixon accused Joe of trying to unalive the media mogul, rapper and infamous troll.

Now if he catches a federal case, don't expect a pardon from President Donald J. Trump. The sexual predator holds grudges against people who opposed him. 

Fat Joe endorsed former vice president Kamala Harris and previously former president Joe Biden in 2024.

Mahmoud Khalil Freed!

One small step to freedom. Keep fighting the fascists Trump and Israel, Mahmoud Khalil.

Mahmoud Khalil is now freed after months in a Jena, Louisiana immigration detention federal time out. 

The crime...

Well, according to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Mahmoud was parroting talking points that were going against America and its closest ally Israel.

Oh so free speech, huh?

Khalil was released Friday from federal immigration detention, freed after 104 days by a judge’s ruling after becoming a symbol of President Donald J. Trump’s clampdown on campus protests.

The former Columbia University graduate student left a federal facility in Louisiana on Friday. He is expected to head to New York to reunite with his U.S. citizen wife and infant son, born while Khalil was detained.

“Justice prevailed, but it’s very long overdue,” he said outside the facility in a remote part of Louisiana. “This shouldn’t have taken three months.”

The Trump administration is seeking to deport Khalil over his role in pro-Palestinian protests. He was detained on March 8 at his apartment building in Manhattan.

Khalil was released after U.S. District Judge Michael Farbiarz said it would be “highly, highly unusual” for the government to continue detaining a legal U.S. resident who was unlikely to flee and hadn’t been accused of any violence.

“Petitioner is not a flight risk, and the evidence presented is that he is not a danger to the community,” he said. “Period, full stop.”

During an hourlong hearing conducted by phone, the New Jersey-based judge said the government had “clearly not met” the standards for detention.

The government filed notice Friday evening that it’s appealing Khalil’s release.

The Department of Homeland Security said in a post on the social platform X that the same day Farbiarz ordered Khalil’s release, an immigration judge in Louisiana denied him bond and “ordered him removed.” The decision was made by Judge Jamee Comans, who is in a court located in the same detention facility from which Khalil was released.

“An immigration judge, not a district judge, has the authority to decide if Mr. Khalil should be released or detained,” the post said.

Khalil was the first person arrested under Trump’s crackdown on students who joined campus protests against Israel’s devastating war in Gaza. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said Khalil must be expelled from the country because his continued presence could harm American foreign policy.

The Trump administration has argued that noncitizens who participate in such demonstrations should be deported as it considers their views antisemitic. Protesters and civil rights groups say the administration is conflating antisemitism with criticism of Israel in order to silence dissent.

Farbiarz has ruled that the government can’t deport Khalil on the basis of its claims that his presence could undermine foreign policy. But the judge gave the administration leeway to continue pursuing a potential deportation based on allegations that he lied on his green card application, an accusation Khalil disputes.

The international affairs graduate student isn’t accused of breaking any laws during the protests at Columbia. He served as a negotiator and spokesperson for student activists and wasn’t among the demonstrators arrested, but his prominence in news coverage and willingness to speak publicly made him a target of critics.

The judge agreed Friday with Khalil’s lawyers that the protester was being prevented from exercising his free speech and due process rights despite no obvious reason for his continued detention. The judge noted that Khalil is now clearly a public figure.

Khalil said Friday that no one should be detained for protesting Israel’s war in Gaza. He said his time in the Jena, Louisiana, detention facility had shown him “a different reality about this country that supposedly champions human rights and liberty and justice.”

“Whether you are a U.S. citizen, an immigrant or just a person on this land doesn’t mean that you are less of a human,” he said, adding that “justice will prevail, no matter what this administration may try to portray” about immigrants.

Khalil had to surrender his passport and can’t travel internationally, but he will get his green card back and be given official documents permitting limited travel within the country, including New York and Michigan to visit family, New Jersey and Louisiana for court appearances and Washington to lobby Congress.

In a statement after the judge’s ruling, Khalil’s wife, Dr. Noor Abdalla, said she can finally “breathe a sigh of relief” after her husband’s three months in detention.

“We know this ruling does not begin to address the injustices the Trump administration has brought upon our family, and so many others,” she said. “But today we are celebrating Mahmoud coming back to New York to be reunited with our little family.”

The judge’s decision comes after several other scholars targeted for their activism have been released from custody, including another former Palestinian student at Columbia, Mohsen Mahdawi; a Tufts University student, Rumeysa Ozturk; and a Georgetown University scholar, Badar Khan Suri.

Mahmoud shares a similar story to me. He missed the birth of his child.

I missed the birth of my child thanks to the child's mother not informing me of her pregnancy and endless playing the victim. She only told me after her and her partner were in serious debt because of her unfortunate circumstances. At the end of the day, I don't blame my son for his mother's actions. However, she will always be regarded as a negative figure in my orbit.

I really hope Mahmoud sues the U.S. Secretary of State and Justice for unlawful detainment.

Bear Sightings In The Miami Valley!

Hello.

Ohioans, black bears are living in our state. Respect their space.

1. Cover your trash, do not leave any food out and make sure you have no strong perfumes or lotions.

2. Do not approach a bear while eating, circulating around its cubs or trapped inside a vehicle or home.

3. Make yourself big, uses bear spray, shake coin cans or make noises to scare bears.

4. As with all animals, bears are unpredictable. If people are feeding bears, they become less afraid and are willing to invade properties in search of food. Humans feeding bears steals the natural abilities these animals have when it comes to searching for food and shelter.

The talk around the Miami Valley was confirm bear sightings around Greene and Clinton Counties. 

Bears are normally east of Columbus but they are spotted in Dayton, Cincinnati and are moving into Indiana.

There were 40 confirmed sightings in western Ohio since 2021. It is rare to see bears in the Miami Valley. They are usually young males in search of mates, food or shelter. They often are temporary residents. It's starting to be more like home.

With communities expanding housings and short term businesses in formerly rural areas, bears are now looking for new places.

A woman spotted a black bear on U.S. Highway 68 as it was calmly strolling around. The U.S. Highway 68 stretch between Xenia and Wilmington is the area where a black bear was spotted. 

Again, watching wildlife from a distance is safer than going near.

Can we do a Darwin Award for the most stupidest people on the planet?

You can't fix stupid!

You can't change minds!

You are completely trapped in stupid.

You are wrapped and emboldened in stupid.

Again, why do white people always treat wild animals like they're domesticated? 

I don't get why some of these people believe it's their mission to disrupt the lives of others. 

This is why Republicans are idiots. Democrats are idiots too but at least some of them have the sense to not engage in stupidity. Not saying all Republicans are idiots, but definitely the ones who voted for President Donald J. Trump are.

I've said it before and I stand by what I say: "Wild animals are......well you know!"

Interacting with uncontacted people is dangerous. Well, they are.... you know!"

If you want to be a thrill seeker, you might want to get life insurance.

Calvin Yarbrough Passed Away!

Calvin Yarbrough and Alisa Peoples. Alisa announced her longtime musical and romantic partner Calvin has passed away.

Calvin Yarbrough and Alissa Peoples set the wave for autotune. Without them, there wouldn't be T-Pain, Future, Lil Uzi Vert and so many others.

The legendary singer and producer has passed away at the age of 72.

*The music world is mourning the loss of Cavin Yarbrough, one-half of the legendary R&B duo Yarbrough & Peoples. Cavin died on the morning of Thursday, June 19, 2025, at the age of 72 due to complications from heart disease.

His wife and longtime musical partner, Alisa Peoples, confirmed his passing. “He was the love of my life, my protector. Now he’s my guardian angel,” she said. Michele Elyzabeth, a longtime friend and representative of the duo, added, “Cavin was not only an extraordinary talent, but a kind man with a great heart.”

Formed in the late 1970s in Dallas, Texas, Yarbrough & Peoples brought a fresh fusion of R&B, funk, and early electronic elements to the music scene. Their breakout hit, “Don’t Stop the Music,” topped the Billboard R&B chart in 1981 and became a gold-certified anthem that still fills dance floors today.

The duo was discovered by Charlie Wilson of The Gap Band and signed by Lonnie Simmons to Total Experience Records. Their debut album, *The Two of Us*, launched them into stardom and set the tone for 1980s R&B with its signature groove and catchy synth-heavy production.

Cavin wasn’t just a performer—he was a classically trained pianist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer whose musical skills elevated the group’s sound. He and Alisa followed up with hits like “Guilty,” “I Wouldn’t Lie,” and “Heartbeats,” becoming known for their smooth vocals and tight onstage chemistry.

Even after the peak of their career in the mid-80s, their influence never faded. Cavin’s work paved the way for a generation of funk, soul, and R&B artists, and his impact extended behind the scenes as a mentor and creative collaborator.

With a catalog full of timeless tracks and a legacy of musical innovation, Cavin Yarbrough will be remembered as a true pioneer of the genre.

His contribution to the sound of the 1980s—particularly through the creative use of synthesizers and soulful arrangements—left a permanent mark on music history.

Their music was sampled by the likes of Tupac Shakur.

Fans around the world continue to celebrate Yarbrough & Peoples’ influence, and Cavin’s passing marks the end of an era for lovers of classic R&B and funk. His legacy, however, continues to inspire, uplift, and get people dancing.

Tributes from across the industry are pouring in for the late artist. Michele Elyzabeth said it best: “His legacy will live on in the music, in our memories, and in the hearts of everyone who knew him.”

Cavin Yarbrough leaves behind not only an indelible musical legacy, but also a life defined by love, partnership, and rhythm that refuses to stop. May he rest in peace.

Trump Not Liking That Barking Chihuahua In National Intelligence!

Trump is dogging on Tulsi Gabbard.

The Director of National Intelligence is feuding with the President of the United States. The president is shutting her out and it is possible she will be the next administration member to be ousted.

The Director of National Intelligence said that Iran is not making nuclear weapons. 

The president disagrees and directly told her that she is off message. He is now planning to shuffle the deck.

Tulsi Gabbard, a former Hawai'ian Democratic lawmaker who became a Republican in 2024 endorsed Donald J. Trump. She was a critic of former president Joe Biden and especially former vice president Kamala Harris.

She was born in American Samoa, an unincorporated U.S. territory in the South Pacific. She would be considered a U.S. National with no citizenship had her father Mike Gabbard been married to an American Samoan. Her mother is from Indiana.

Gabbard is a Samoan American who served in the U.S. Army Reserve and served three terms as a U.S. Representative. She served as co director of the Democratic National Committee in 2013 until 2016. As co chair of the DNC, Gabbard feuded with Hillary Clinton during her 2016 Democratic presidential bid. She is 43 years old.

Gabbard backed Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and called for a prolonged Democratic primary despite Clinton winning the majority of delegates. 

Gabbard also is labeled a propagandist for the Russian Federation. Clinton stated that her role in the Democratic Party was toxic. She said without mentioning Gabbard's name was mouthpiece for Russia during the 2020 elections. Gabbard tried to sue her for slander. 

Gabbard facing a strong primary challenger retired. She found open arms with Fox and appeared frequently on Sean "Softball" Hannity's bullshit carnival, Tucker Carlson Tonight and The Ingraham Angle with Laura Ingraham. She guest hosted on several of those shows.

Gabbard declared she was an independent while on Fox. She began attacking Biden, Harris, former president Barack Obama, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), transgender Americans, immigrants and progressives.

Gabbard must be learning that Trump wants absolute loyalty. If you cross him, you're done. 

Gabbard allies insist that, while there is some White House tension, some of the public blowback is overstated, and none interviewed by NBC News expect her to leave the administration as a result of the president’s Iran policy, even if that includes direct U.S. involvement.

Gabbard’s politically perilous position burst into the open this week when Trump brushed her back over her testimony to Congress in March. At that time, she said the U.S. intelligence community did not believe Iran was building a nuclear weapon — a comment at odds with Trump’s recent public statement about the threat posed by Iran’s potential nuclear program.

“I don’t care what she said. I think they were very close to having one,” Trump told reporters Tuesday on Air Force One.

A person with knowledge of the matter said the U.S. intelligence community’s view has not changed since Gabbard’s testimony in March.

But the idea that a president would openly refute his director of national intelligence immediately spurred questions about whether she is now iced out of decision-making on the issue.

Tension between the president and his Director of National Intelligence. 

It also reflects a rift that is playing out publicly in Trump’s MAGA coalition, with some supporters advocating standing by Israel in whatever military action it takes against Iran and others saying intervention would go against the “America First” philosophy. Trump’s criticism of U.S. involvement in past conflicts — and his campaign promise to be a “peacemaker” in his second term — brought in unusual bedfellows, such as Gabbard, who had been a Democratic congresswoman.

Multiple senior administration officials said Gabbard has been sidelined in internal administration discussions about the conflict between Israel and Iran. Even two of her allies who spoke to NBC News acknowledged that her standing took a hit when she posted a video on June 10 after a trip to Hiroshima, Japan. The video, which featured the simulated destruction of American cities and Gabbard warning about the dangers of nuclear war, annoyed the White House team, the officials said.

Gabbard did not attend a meeting of top officials June 8 at Camp David, the presidential retreat in Maryland, to discuss tensions between Israel and Iran, which raised fresh questions about her status in the administration. A White House official told NBC News that Gabbard was not present only because she had to take part in scheduled training as a member of the National Guard.

Gabbard’s past positions on Iran, coupled with her recent comments and Trump’s responses to them, have forced top administration officials into a difficult position. Gabbard has seemingly been at odds with the administration line, but not to the point where they feel the need to abandon her.

“Tulsi is a veteran, a patriot, a loyal supporter of Pres Trump and a critical part of the coalition he built in 2024,” Vice President JD Vance said in a statement Tuesday. “She’s an essential member of our nat sec team, & we’re grateful for her tireless work to keep America safe from foreign threats.”

Other Republicans, though, have taken shots at her recent Iran comments.

“She obviously needs to change her meds,” Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., told Jewish Insider last week.

Gabbard has long used her public platform to oppose U.S. military action against Iran and has been working behind the scenes to try to find a diplomatic solution, two of the administration officials said.

In one case, Gabbard sought to enlist the help of European allies who have communication channels with Tehran, an official said.

That stands, at times, in direct conflict with Trump’s public comments about the now open fight between Israel and Iran, a fight he himself has acknowledged might now require U.S. intervention.

“I may do it. I may not do it. I mean, nobody knows what I’m going to do,” Trump told reporters Wednesday.

Gabbard allies who spoke to NBC News acknowledge that the video was not received well by White House officials but said reported rifts between her and Trump on the issue have been overstated.

“I have heard that also,” a Gabbard ally said of the tension spurred by the Hiroshima video. “But I don’t think it reached the level of the president himself. I am told the matter has been ‘resolved.’”

The Gabbard ally downplayed any idea that she would resign over the public Trump rebuke or whether the United States got directly involved in the Iran-Israel conflict.

“The online claim that she will resign if the president decides to take direct action in Iran are false,” the person said.

The video, however, did circulate widely among White House aides, and it left many wondering why she was taking such a public position as tensions escalate and Trump appears ready to get further involved.

“I think she is generally in OK standing,” a Republican operative familiar with administration thinking said. “In situations like this, folks with more traditional Republican and neocon views are going to use the opportunity to minimize her influence.”

Asked about the recent video on Hiroshima, Gabbard’s deputy chief of staff, Alexa Henning, said: “Acknowledging the past is critical to inform the future. President Trump has repeatedly stated in the past that he recognizes the immeasurable suffering, and annihilation can be caused by nuclear war, which is why he has been unequivocal that we all need to do everything possible to work towards peace.”

As a Democratic congresswoman, presidential candidate and supporter of Trump’s 2024 campaign, Gabbard portrayed herself as a fierce opponent of what she sees as America’s misguided military interventions overseas, including the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and U.S. assistance for rebels in Libya and Syria.

In last year’s electoral campaign, Gabbard accused the Biden administration of bringing the United States “closer to the brink of nuclear war than we ever have been before.”

During Trump’s first term in office, Gabbard strongly criticized his handling of Iran and his decision to pull the United States out of a 2015 nuclear agreement that imposed limits on Tehran’s nuclear work in return for an easing of sanctions.

If Trump decides to order military strikes on Iran amid talk by Israel that military pressure might cause the Tehran regime to collapse, Gabbard would find herself in an awkward political position. She has vowed to ensure America no longer engages in “regime change” wars.

Gabbard’s being warmly welcomed into Trump’s MAGA political base during the last presidential election was seen at the time as an injection of ideological diversity.

A Trump administration official acknowledged that the heterodox views that made her a welcome addition to the MAGA movement now mark her as an outsider in an administration appearing to coalesce around a policy antithetical to those views.

“If you adopt a Chihuahua, you should not be surprised that you have a Chihuahua,” the person said.

Gabbard is like Lindy Li. 

A fucking waste of space. We keep picking centrists, white nationalists and Zionists. The Democrats are becoming more conservative while Republicans are becoming fascists.

The Democrats continue to pick candidates that are not vetted. 

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) had dined with Matt Walsh and Steve Bannon. He has flirted with becoming an independent or a Republican. He is opposed to the Democrats calls to make Congress be the authority to declare war. Fetterman supports Israel's attacks on Iran. He greenlights any method Trump uses to attack Iran.

Kroger To Close Locations!

It's not fresh for everyone. Kroger plans to close 60 to 100 stores.

The Kroger Company, the nation's largest grocer is planning on closing 60 to 100 stores in the United States. It also has affiliates that include King Soopers, Ralphs, Fred Meyer, Food 4 Less, Harris Teether, QFC, Pay Less, City Market, Fry's, Dillons, Smith’s and Mariano's.

The company has not announced the locations. 

I have a bad feeling that locations in Detroit, Atlanta, Memphis, Little Rock, Cincinnati, Dayton, Houston and St. Louis will face the blunt of these closings.

Kroger is owned by private equity firm Berkshire Hathaway. It piles debts on businesses like Dairy Queen, GEICO, Coca-Cocla, APPLE, SiriusXM and others.

Kroger operates over 2,700 stores nationwide. The company is located in downtown Cincinnati.

Kroger announced it will close 60 stores across the United States over the next 18 months, representing about 5% of its 1,239 Kroger-branded locations operating in 16 states. The Cincinnati-based company disclosed the decision in a recent regulatory filing.

Kroger operates in 35 states.

So the concerns about fixing the economy are not a priority for President Donald J. Trump and Republicans. We got to juggle around the thoughts of a chaotic war in the Middle East.

Who cares about the tariffs on trading partners Canada, Mexico and China?

After all, we have to work everyday sometimes for more than eight hours or a second job to pay for groceries, rent, car loans, college tutition, college loans, outstanding bills and the feds.

All of the money funds Trump’s golf trips, the Israeli missile defense, the Israeli economy and the lawmakers trips.

Capitalism is America.

Our economic downfall is when Kroger and Walmart declare bankruptcy. 

Trust me, it's coming.

Road Rage Is Antisemitism Now!

The "I am not on drugs" Max Miller cries on social media about a road rage incident that he likely instigated. A pro Palestinian driver and the Ohio U.S. Representative got into an incident in Cleveland.

The 15 U.S. Representatives from Ohio all take money from AIPAC.

Greg Landsman, Warren Davidson, Joyce Beatty, Emilia Skyes, Marcy Kuptar, Troy Balderson, Mike Turner, Mike Carey, Shontel Brown, Bob Latta, Jim Jordan, Michael Rulli, David Joyce, David Taylor and Max Miller all suck the cock of an Israeli.

They all need to reject AIPAC money or be replaced. The majority is 11 Republican and 4 Democrats. Thanks to Ohio's nasty gerrymandering, Republicans will continue to dominate for years.

The two Republican senators also are AIPAC too.

Jon Husted and Bernie Moreno suck the cock of the Israelis too.

Ohio is a rust belt state lead by incompetent Republican leadership. 

Gov. Mike DeWine, Lt. Gov. Jim Tressel and Ohio Republicans are morons.

The Democratic leadership is incompetent as well. They have no fucking chance to retake the state. It's too white, too stuck in the past and just not willing to see the obvious.

President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance ain't doing shit for Ohio.

All these motherfuckers are giving billions to Israel and its ongoing chaotic attacks on Iran, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Gaza, the West Bank, Qatar, Egypt and Jordan.

The deranged hatred in this country has gotten out of control. Today I was run off the road in Rocky River, and the life of me and my family was threatened by a person who proceeded to show a Palestinian flag before taking off. I have filed a police report with Capitol Police and… pic.twitter.com/H6JnupcRIA

Israel will lead us to World War III.

Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) lives in Rocky River, Ohio. He represents west of Cleveland to Medina, Wooster, Brooklyn, Strongsville and Chargin Heights.

Miller is a co sponsor of the Antisemitism Awareness Act. This bill if signed into law will establish a task force to combat antisemitism. It's going make criticism of Zionism, expressing biblical beliefs against Jews, boycotting Israel, protesting synagogues and chanting pro Palestinian beliefs a crime.

He is a former advisor to Trump in his incompetent first term. He is the son-in-law of Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) for now. Miller is separated from his wife Emily, the daughter of the senior senator. Allegations of abuse and drugs.

Former Trump press secretary turned critic Stephanie Grisham also said the same of Miller. They dated briefly.

Miller is a fucking racist dickhead.

He must be on something. Cause he is claiming that an incident involving him and another motorist was an antisemitic attack.

Miller is a Jewish congressman who has property in the occupied West Bank.

Miller said he was "run off the road" on Thursday in Rocky River, Ohio, by a driver who showed him a Palestinian flag and threatened him. 

"Some unhinged, deranged man decided to lay on his horn and run me off the road when he couldn't get my attention, to show me a Palestinian flag, not to mention death to Israel, death to me, that he wanted to kill me and my family," Miller, a Republican, said in a video posted on X. 

The congressman, who is Jewish, called it "blatant antisemitic violence."

Miller said on X he reported the issue to local authorities and the U.S. Capitol Police, adding, "We know who this person is." The Rocky River Police Department in Ohio confirmed to CBS News that the incident was reported, but did not provide any further details. Capitol Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Rocky River is a suburb of Cleveland.

The congressman did not elaborate on the alleged threats. CBS News has reached out to Miller's office for additional details.

Let me get this straight... Someone who happened to have a Palestinian flag on his vehicle got into a road rage incident with a lawmaker who most of the Rocky River community hardly sees around town. This lawmaker claims to be ran off the road.

Somehow he managed to pull aside to record his incident instead of calling the law.

He does this shit after he made the call. 

Sounds like a cocaine and alcohol theme here. Shout out to Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Anna Paulina Luna, Nancy Mace, Ronny Jackson, Matt Rosendale and John James. Y'all know the number to call for that fix. 

Tell Max Miller to get some of that stuff y'all on.

Threats against lawmakers and other public officials, including judges and prosecutors, have risen in recent years, Capitol Police and the U.S. Marshals Service say. The U.S. Capitol Police says it investigated 9,474 "concerning statements and direct threats" against members of Congress and their families and staff last year, up from around 8,000 the year prior.

Dr. Feras Hamden was arrested for a road incident involving controversial Ohio Republican lawmaker Max Miller.

The concerns were amplified after Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark were fatally shot over the weekend, and state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife were injured in a separate shooting. The suspect, Vance Boelter, was charged in the shootings, and authorities say they found a list of names and addresses for other public officials in the suspect's SUV. 

House Democratic leaders said in a statement, "We condemn in the strongest possible terms the attack on Congressman Max Miller and his family and are thankful they are safe. The rise in political violence in this country is unacceptable."

CBS News has reached out to House Speaker Mike Johnson's office for comment.

The suspect was arrested. He was identified as Feras S. Hamdan, a MD from the Cleveland Clinic.

I don't believe it.

Let me be clear: I do not condone or condemn anything happening to politicians.

Miller is an alleged drug abusing, physically abusive, serial adulterer. If this turns out to be a hoax, I will make sure he is either primaried by a Republican or defeated by a Democratic opponent.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Juneteenth!

Honoring Juneteenth.

Today is a federal holiday.

Today is Juneteenth.

I wonder if President Donald J. Trump will honor it or call it some DEI holiday.

This is the fourth year for the celebration of liberation for the descendants of slavery. It took an additional two years after Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation for enslaved Africans to be freed.

The proclamation declared "that all persons held as slaves" within the rebellious states "are, and henceforward shall be free."

Despite this expansive wording, the Emancipation Proclamation was limited in many ways. It applied only to states that had seceded from the United States, leaving slavery untouched in the loyal border states. It also expressly exempted parts of the Confederacy (the Southern secessionist states) that had already come under Northern control. Most important, the freedom it promised depended upon Union (United States) military victory.

Although the Emancipation Proclamation did not end slavery in the nation, it captured the hearts and imagination of millions of Americans and fundamentally transformed the character of the war. After January 1, 1863, every advance of federal troops expanded the domain of freedom. Moreover, the Proclamation announced the acceptance of black men into the Union Army and Navy, enabling the liberated to become liberators. By the end of the war, almost 200,000 black soldiers and sailors had fought for the Union and freedom.

From the first days of the Civil War, slaves had acted to secure their own liberty. The Emancipation Proclamation confirmed their insistence that the war for the Union must become a war for freedom. It added moral force to the Union cause and strengthened the Union both militarily and politically. As a milestone along the road to slavery's final destruction, the Emancipation Proclamation has assumed a place among the great documents of human freedom.

The original of the Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 1863, is in the National Archives in Washington, DC. With the text covering five pages the document was originally tied with narrow red and blue ribbons, which were attached to the signature page by a wafered impression of the seal of the United States. Most of the ribbon remains; parts of the seal are still decipherable, but other parts have worn off.

The document was bound with other proclamations in a large volume preserved for many years by the Department of State. When it was prepared for binding, it was reinforced with strips along the center folds and then mounted on a still larger sheet of heavy paper. Written in red ink on the upper right-hand corner of this large sheet is the number of the Proclamation, 95, given to it by the Department of State long after it was signed. With other records, the volume containing the Emancipation Proclamation was transferred in 1936 from the Department of State to the National Archives of the United States.

Juneteenth only became the newest national holiday in 2021 when then President Biden signed legislation formally recognize June 19th as a national day of observance. Known variously as Juneteenth (a combination of the words "June" and "19th"), Freedom Day, Emancipation Day or Jubilee Day, it is now marked by parades, rallies and cookouts in cities across the U.S.

The Dayton Tagger Caught Comes From The Burbs!

One of the infamous Dayton taggers is caught.

The Dayton Police arrested a notorious tagger who has been vandalizing buildings, noise walls, street signs, traffic signals and left a unique calling card.

It was tagged over skyscrapers, abandoned homes, railroad tressels, bridges, abandoned businesses, noise walls, street signs, sidewalks, bus shelters and dumpsters.

SUPA.

The suspect is named Roman Baumer. The 19 year old has likely over $200,000 worth of property damage throughout Dayton, Trotwood, Riverside, Vandalia, Harrison Township, Jefferson Township, Clayton, Butler Township, Kettering and Moraine. 

The tagger even went as far as Columbus and Springfield.

Oh he is gonna pay for this.

The city was waiting for the right moment to catch him slipping. 

Since I don't give a fuck. Here is the image of the suspect.

Man from Englewood, Ohio caused thousands of dollars of vandalism and property damage.

After the tagging on Interstate 75 and Ohio State Route 4, the Ohio Department of Transportation used high definition cameras to catch him.

Also the city set up cameras in areas where he and the other tagger JK-47 were known to tag again. 

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

It took almost a year.

What makes this a sad pathetic thing is the fact that Dayton looks bad. 

It took a white man from the suburbs to deface the community.

He ain't sorry. 

Matter of fact, he will likely do it again.

Dayton mayor Jeff Mims and police chief Kamran Afzal will eventually start getting tough on taggers.

This tagger lives in the suburbs. He intentionally destroyed Dayton for thrills.

There are three known taggers who have spread their tags in not only Dayton but the suburbs of Vandalia, Moraine, Harrison Township, Butler Township, Trotwood, Riverside and Kettering.

On North Main Street (Ohio State Route 48), Baumer has over 30 properties with his signature tag.

The other tagger has 50 throughout the community.

Tagging has plagued downtown as well and it has frustrated city leaders.

Maj. Brian Johns of the Dayton Police Department said, "He’s tagged areas near Columbus, there was an area on the overpass on I-70 near I-75 where it was tagged, there are just hundreds of tags in the city of Dayton and beyond from Supa."

The video evidence reportedly shows Baumer checking the area for bystanders before spray-painting the side of the building and leaving the scene. Authorities claim Baumer has defaced hundreds of properties throughout the city.

Police are working with affected businesses and areas to have Baumer repaint over his graffiti as a form of community service punishment.

They were too lenient. They should make him actually work at the businesses affected by the tagging. 

They should put him in the county lockup for this.

The Carlson Cruz!

Check yourself before you wreck yourself.

The clash of the far right agitators.

Independent media is growing. 

For the first time, I actually starting to agree with Tucker Carlson. That smug bow tie, sandal wearing asshole confronts that no teeth having, do nothing, smug asshole, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on his undying support of Israel.

The civil war between MAGAland.

The civil war in the Democratic Party.

Both parties are useless as fuck. They allow one foreign country occupy their roles in government, leadership and policies. It's almost like all members who take AIPAC money have to suck the cock of some Israeli operative.

Even notable members are selling out. 

Many people do not want to have another senseless war. Even President Donald J. Trump is shifting gears towards a conflict despite his promises to not engage in new wars.

Carlson and Candace Owens are like a damn broken clock. For one time, they are actually right. 

No I am not becoming a conservative or embracing their nonsense. But the writing is on the wall. You can't just sit back and ignore the images of children being killed daily by an apartheid ethnostate.

Israel has doomed Trump, Joe Biden and George W. Bush. 

Barack Obama may have been the only person willing to take on Benjamin Netanyahu despite his unwavering support for Israel. However, he at least acknowledged the plight of Palestinians. Yet, Obama had a role in regime change in Libya. Biden had a role in regime change in Syria. All at the behest of Israel.

Wow, that was so long ago.

I wished Kamala Harris would have shifted her position. She would have not been as chaotic as Trump. Sure as hell, the far right would demonize her for being a Black woman, claim she is soft on terror or whatever else they can vomit up.

If she would have called for a ceasefire, allow a Palestinian American speaker, talk to Rashida Tlaib, visit a mosque or even go on a podcast with a critic, man.

But here we are. Trump and Vice President JD Vance are drumming up for war.

It was first about nuclear weapons. Now it's about regime change. Put a pro Israel leader in and destabilize the Persian world.

Tucker Carlson had enough. This isn't America First.

He does a sit down interview with Cruz. It was not a friendly. It was heated.

Senator Ted Cruz demands regime change in Iran. He’s not interested in the details.

— Tucker Carlson (@TuckerCarlson) June 18, 2025

Cruz is infamous for his fleeing Texas during the winter storm and his failed presidential campaign. He was a headache to former president Barack Obama.

He has no real accomplishments as a senator. Cruz usually wins reelection despite his endless controversies.

I started to notice that Cruz has no upper teeth. He must have dentures or something is definitely wrong with his face.

Carlson asks Cruz, “How many people live in Iran by the way?” Cruz responds, “I don’t know the population.”

“You don’t know the population of the country you seek to topple?,” Carlson insists?

Cruz shot back, “I don’t sit around memorizing population tables.”

Carlson stated, “Well, it’s kinda relevant because you’re calling for the overthrow of the Government.”

The two men then argue about the “ethnic mix” of Iran, which leads to Cruz shouting, “I am not the Tucker Carlson expert on Iran!”

Carlson retorts, “No you’re a senator who is calling to overthrow the country and you don’t know anything about the country!”

Carlson asked Cruz why is Israel spying on Americans. Cruz deflected from it.

The whole interview is a total shitshow. Cruz deflected to Black issues quickly.

He votes against domestic spending and never flinches from defense spending.

Tyler Perry Sued For 🍇 By A Man!

Trouble, trouble, trouble...

The Boondocks made a parody of Tyler Perry by creating Winston Duke. The media mogul called Cartoon Network Studios and Sony Entertainment personality to ban the episode because it portrayed him in a negative light.

Aaron McGruder to this day was never proven wrong.

The Boondocks lasted four seasons. Technically three seasons because McGruder walked away from the final ten episodes that contributed. Adult Swim, the network that follows Cartoon Network had to call it a "fourth season."

Pause.

Perry is being sued for sexual assault, extortion and quid pro quo allegations. 

The victim also revealed numerous text messages between the two that lasted for nearly a year. 

Tyler Perry Studios is based in Los Angeles, Atlanta and New Orleans. His studio facilty is located at the old Fort McPherson military installation in Atlanta.

The actor who worked on the Tyler Perry-created TV drama “The Oval” has filed a lawsuit alleging Perry leveraged his industry power to repeatedly sexually assault and harass him while keeping him quiet.

The lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court by actor Derek Dixon, who appeared on 85 episodes of the BET series, seeks at least $260 million in damages.

“Mr. Perry took his success and power and used his considerable influence in the entertainment industry to create a coercive, sexually exploitative dynamic with Mr. Dixon — initially promising him career advancement and creative opportunities, such as producing his pilot and casting him in his show, only to subject him to escalating sexual harassment, assault and battery, and professional retaliation,” the lawsuit says.

Derek Dixon accused media mogul Tyler Perry of sexual abuse.

The lawsuit was filed Friday and first reported Tuesday by TMZ.

Perry’s attorney, Matthew Boyd, said its allegations are false.

“This is an individual who got close to Tyler Perry for what now appears to be nothing more than setting up a scam,” Boyd said in a statement Tuesday. “But Tyler will not be shaken down, and we are confident these fabricated claims of harassment will fail.”

The lawsuit says that Perry first noticed Dixon in 2019 when Dixon was part of the event staff at a Perry party, and later offered an audition.

Dixon would first appear in a small role on the Perry series “Ruthless” before getting the bigger role on the political drama “The Oval.”

Perry soon began sending unwanted sexual text messages to Dixon, according to the lawsuit, which includes screenshots of several of them.

“What’s it going to take for you to have guiltless sex?” one of the messages says.

The lawsuit says Perry offered Dixon an increasingly prominent role on the show as his sexual advances became more aggressive.

The actor says he tried to remain friendly while maintaining boundaries.

“Dixon did his best to tiptoe around Mr. Perry’s sexual aggression while keeping on Mr. Perry’s good side,” the lawsuit says. “Mr. Perry made it clear to Dixon that if Dixon ignored Perry or failed to engage with the sexual innuendoes, Dixon’s character would ‘die.’”

The lawsuit says Perry eventually sexually assaulted Dixon on “multiple occasions,” including an instance where he “forcibly pulled off Mr. Dixon’s clothing, groped his buttocks, and attempted to force himself on Dixon.”

Dixon clearly told Perry “No,” but was initially ignored until he was able to de-escalate the situation and change the subject, according to the lawsuit.

The following day, Perry apologized, and told Dixon he would work with Dixon on a TV pilot Dixon was seeking to produce.

Dixon later received a raise that the lawsuit suggests was part of an attempt to keep him quiet.

He said the fear of his character dying kept him quiet as intended.

Perry also produced and bought the rights to the pilot, called “Losing It,” but the lawsuit alleges Perry had no intention of selling the show and was using it only for leverage over Dixon.

The lawsuit describes several other assaults, including one where Dixon was staying in a guest room of Perry’s house when Perry climbed into bed with him uninvited and began groping him, the lawsuit alleges.

Dixon would eventually move from Atlanta, home to Perry’s production studio, to Los Angeles to put distance between the two of them.

Dixon in 2024 filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and when that didn’t result in any action from the show’s producers, he quit.

The Associated Press does not typically name people who say they have been sexually abused unless they come forward publicly as Dixon has.

“The Oval” is one of many television series executive produced by, written by and directed by the 55-year-old Perry, who first became known as creator and star of the “Madea” films and has since built a major production empire in TV and movies. As an actor he has also appeared in the films “Gone Girl” and “Don’t Look Up.”

They Made A Woman Declared Brain Dead Deliver Her Baby!

This is America. A woman who legally brain dead had to give birth to her child. Now the child and the sibling will face years of trauma.

A Black woman who was declared brain dead was forced to carry to term her pregnancy because of these stupid draconian white people laws.

The Dobbs decision set medical freedom and women's rights back.

The Supreme Court has three women and six men. Of the court, five men who act like a bunch of punks and one woman who sucks their cocks.

Y'all voted for this.

John Roberts, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanagh and Amy Coney Barrett: fuck you bastards. Selling out freedoms for a fictional ditty.

God does not exist. If there was God, why are there so many man made crises. 

White supremacy, capitalism, Trumpism, Christian nationalism and Jewish nationalism has made the United States a declining nation.

The baby of a woman in Georgia who was declared brain dead and has been on life support since February was delivered early Friday morning, her mother said.

April Newkirk told WXIA-TV that 31-year-old Adriana Smith’s baby was born prematurely by an emergency cesarean section early Friday, the Atlanta station reported Monday night. She was about six months into her pregnancy. The baby, named Chance, weighs about 1 pound and 13 ounces and is in the neonatal intensive care unit.

“He’s expected to be okay,” Newkirk told the TV station. “He’s just fighting. We just want prayers for him.”

Newkirk said her daughter had intense headaches more than four months ago and went to Atlanta’s Northside Hospital, where she received medication and was released. The next morning, her boyfriend woke to her gasping for air and called 911. Emory University Hospital determined she had blood clots in her brain and she was declared brain-dead. She was eight weeks pregnant, according to WXIA.

Newkirk said Smith would be taken off of life support Tuesday.

The Associated Press called and emailed Emory Tuesday for comment. It is unclear why Emory decided to deliver the baby. The Associated Press has also tried to contact Newkirk.

Smith’s family said Emory doctors told them they were not allowed to remove the devices keeping her breathing because state law bans abortion after cardiac activity can be detected — generally around six weeks into pregnancy.

Georgia Republican Attorney General Chris Carr later issued a statement saying the law did not require medical professionals to keep a woman declared brain dead on life support.

“Removing life support is not an action ‘with the purpose to terminate a pregnancy,’” Carr said.

Newkirk said Smith loved being a nurse at Emory. She also has a 7-year-old son. Her family celebrated her 31st birthday Sunday with several advocacy groups. Newkirk did not speak at the event.

“I’m her mother,” Newkirk told WXIA. “I shouldn’t be burying my daughter. My daughter should be burying me.”

The state of Georgia won't cover the medical expenses, the funeral expenses, the child and sibling's support for years of trauma and of course they want the family to not take any assistance from the state.

George Carlin said it best. They're pro life when it comes to pregnancy but pro death when it comes to war, the death penalty, gun violence, famine and climate change.

They all in your business when it comes to your sex life, your pregnancy and your use of the safety net.
