He now faces federal charges—including two counts of murder, stalking, and weapons offenses—as well as state-level charges of second-degree murder and attempted murder for the targeted killings and shootings of Democratic legislators and their spouses abcnews.go.com+2people.com+2en.wikipedia.org+2. Prosecutors say he meticulously planned the attacks, using surveillance notes, a fake police uniform, a hyper-realistic silicone mask, and a target list of around 45 elected officials en.wikipedia.org+4reuters.com+4people.com+4.

Federal and state prosecutors are exploring whether to upgrade charges to first-degree murder and consider seeking the death penalty in federal court thesun.ie+2people.com+2en.wikipedia.org+2.

Man who let deadly snakes bite him 200+ times could be key to new antivenom

Man who let deadly snakes bite him 200+ times could be key to new antivenom Scientists have developed a groundbreaking broad-spectrum antivenom using antibodies from a man in Wisconsin, Tim Friede , who endured over 200 venomous snake bites (and hundreds more self-injections) over nearly two decades unco.edu +15 smithsonianmag.com +15 washingtonpost.com +15 . From species such as king cobras, black mambas, and rattlesnakes, this extreme exposure triggered his immune system to produce rare, broadly reactive antibodies. Researchers at Columbia University (led by Peter Kwong) and Centivax (with Jacob Glanville) isolated two of these potent antibodies. When combined with the drug varespladib , the cocktail successfully protected mice against venom from 19 highly dangerous snakes , fully neutralizing 13 species and partially neutralizing the remaining six cen.acs.org +10 nature.com +10 wsj.com +10 . This represents a potential leap forward from today's antivenoms, which are typically...

Staged Arrests and Manufactured Outrage: Is the Anti-ICE Movement Just a Political Theater Script?

Image
Scott Jennings CLASHES With Tara Palmeri,  Says VIOLENCE Is a LEFTWING Problem | RISING When CNN’s Scott Jennings recently described Democrat anti-ICE protests as “porn for their base,” he wasn’t exaggerating—he was peeling back the curtain on a growing tactic: the deliberate use of lawbreaking and confrontation as a tool for public relations, political branding, and campaign fundraising. What looks like resistance is increasingly being seen as a carefully rehearsed performance . Prominent progressive lawmakers and activist influencers are being filmed “resisting” ICE agents, blocking vehicles, or chaining themselves to detention centers—all with camera crews conveniently positioned to catch every dramatic angle. These aren’t spontaneous acts of civil disobedience—they’re made-for-viral moments , ready for social media blasts, donation links, and campaign ad reels by sundown. Critics argue this behavior isn’t just performative—it’s calculated incitement . The goal? Stoke outrage, b...

According to Scripture applying to modern day events, who would you think the Little Horn is?

Image
According to Daniel, This Is a Prophetic Red Flag The “Little Horn” appears in the Book of Daniel , particularly in chapters 7 and 8. It has long been associated by scholars, theologians, and fringe interpreters with an antichrist-type figure , marked by power, deception, blasphemy, and global domination. Applying this symbol to modern events , here are interpretations—both traditional and fringe: Biblical Background (Daniel 7:8, 7:24-25; 8:9-12) Arises among ten horns (ten kings/kingdoms) Has eyes like a man and a mouth speaking great things Wages war against the saints Changes times and laws Exalts himself against the "Prince of the Host" Mainstream Interpretations Historical View : Often applied to Antiochus Epiphanes (a Seleucid king who desecrated the Temple), or to Rome , symbolizing imperial oppression. Futurist Christian View : Interprets it as the final Antichrist , emerging from a revived Roman Empire (possibly the EU or a future global govern...
