01a Apocalyptic

Jeffrey Epstein was not a lone predator. He was an intelligence asset whose network reached into the highest levels of American and British power, and the just-released files barely scratch the surface.

Frank Wright lays out the case: Epstein’s rise through Leslie Wexner (who claimed to be possessed by a “dybbuk”), his connections to Harvard academics, billionaire Zionist donors, Clinton associates, and members of the Trump administration. The question is not who visited an island. The question is why an entire ruling class protected a known operative for decades — and why President Donald Trump resisted releasing the files that name his own friends.

Legacy media obituaries for Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei made the ruthless tyrant sound like a teddy bear. From The Wall Street Journal, whose reporting has trended more progressive in recent years, to The Washington Post, which wears its progressive editorial orientation as a badge of honor, media outlets have beclowned themselves in their portrayals of a man who dedicated his life to murder and repression.

Borrowing from the Post’s widely ridiculed 2019 description of terrorist Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as an “austere scholar,” the Journal’s characterization of Khamenei as an “austere cleric” left many readers appalled. But it was the obituaries from the Post and The New York Times that really grated.

From its headline, “Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Hard-Line Cleric Who Made Iran a Regional Power, Is Dead at 86,” to the almost lyrical depiction of his “avuncular and magnanimous aloofness,” the Times’ empathy for this brutal dictator was on full display.

Sounding more like a eulogy, the Times’ obituary read: “With his spectacles, Palestinian kaffiyeh, long robes and silver beard, Ayatollah Khamenei cast himself as a religious scholar as well as a writer and translator of works on Islam. He affected an avuncular and magnanimous aloofness, running the country from a perch above the jousting of daily politics.”

(LifeSiteNews) — On this same issue of homosexuality as presented in Part 4 of this series, we must also consider what has been taking place publicly with bishops throughout the world, and with Pope Leo XIV, in recent months. Two examples follow.

First, the German bishops. On October 30, 2025, the German Bishops’ Conference released the document “Created, Redeemed and Loved: Visibility and Recognition of the Diversity of Sexual Identities in the School,” which boldly asserts that “the diversity of sexual identities is a fact,” and instructs that in Catholic schools, teachers not only must accept whatever gender with which a student identifies, but also must address students with gender-affirming pronouns. Moreover, teachers are required to present Catholic teaching on human sexuality as “disputed” and open to debate. As Dr. Steven Mosher, President of Population Research Institute, noted:

[W]hile the Vatican has, in the past, repeatedly condemned gender ideology as an attack on the God-given differences between men and women, as well as on the anthropological foundation of the family, it has taken no disciplinary action against the German episcopate for promoting it.[1]

Mexico has certainly hit a rough patch this year.

Earlier this week, the killing of a cartel kingpin led to widespread violence and disruptions by gangs throughout the country.

Now, hackers reportedly “jailbroke” Anthropic’s Claude chatbot and used it to help steal roughly 150 GB of sensitive data from multiple Mexican government entities, including tax and voter records.

Stealing 195 million taxpayer records shouldn’t be this easy, yet one hacker just proved that Anthropic’s Claude makes government data theft almost routine. Between December 2025 and January 2026, an unknown attacker exploited the popular AI chatbot to automate cyberattacks against multiple Mexican agencies, walking away with 150GB of sensitive data including voter records, employee credentials, and civil registry files.

The breach reads like a cyberpunk fever dream, but the method was disturbingly simple. The hacker jailbroke Claude by framing malicious requests as a “bug bounty” security program, convincing the AI to act as an “elite hacker.” Once fooled, Claude produced thousands of detailed attack plans with ready-to-execute scripts, specifying exact targets and credentials needed.

When Claude hit limits, the attacker switched to ChatGPT for lateral movement and evasion tactics—turning two consumer AI tools into a sophisticated hacking arsenal. This tag-team approach leveraged each platform’s strengths while bypassing their individual safeguards.

Eden Schwartz, the school’s diversity, equity and inclusion coordinator, said families have played a central role in shaping the celebration.

“Part of my job is helping the students bring their cultural celebrations to life, but I really lean on them to see what they want to do,” she added.

“For the past three years, we’ve had families who’ve really just jumped in and taken control of the event and the boys love it.”

The dumpling workshop was just one of several Chinese New Year events at the school. Students also watched a lion dance performance, learned about the Chinese zodiac and walked through halls decorated with red lanterns.

We recently received the 2025 fourth quarter Ontario euthanasia report from the Office of the Chief Coroner of Ontario.

The report stated that in Ontario there were 5303 reported euthanasia deaths in 2025 which was up from 4944 in 2024, which represented a 7.2% increase. This was up from 4641 euthanasia deaths in 2023 which represented a 6.5% increase that year.

This indicates that the growth in euthanasia deaths is increasing, not stabilizing.

The report indicated that all Ontario MAiD deaths, in 2025, were clinician administered (euthanasia). In jurisdictions that legalize both euthanasia and assisted suicide, nearly all of the deaths are euthanasia.

ABC News was once again treading dangerously close to serious legal lability. During Thursday’s episode of The View, co-host Sunny Hostin spew allegations – without evidence – about President Trump “sexually assaulting that 13-year-old.” A short time later, Hostin was made to reel in her definitive claims with a touch of skepticism by noting what she was referring to were “unverified allegations,” which were being pushed by Democrats and the liberal media.

The liberal ladies were discussing the Epstein files yet again after Democratic House member Robert Garcia (CA) claimed 50 pages were missing related to a salacious claim made against the President involving a 13-year-old girl.

In their discussion, Hostin spoke about the allegation as if it was fact:

HOSTIN: I want to know where those pages are.

JOY BEHAR: What was taken out?

HOSTIN: Well, we don’t know what was taken out, but what we know is that Representative Garcia read about 50 — 50 pages are left out. He did read an account of the President sexually assaulting that 13-year-old.

BEHAR: Trump. This president.

HOSTIN: Yes.

A short time later, co-host Joy Behar handed Hostin a card and teed her up to hedge her accusation by admitting the allegations were “unverified,” but she needed to get a dig in by reading them:

I want to be very careful here because these are allegations and President Trump has consistently – they’re unverified allegations and President Trump has consistently denied all the allegations and any wrongdoing. BUT there was a presentation made by the FBI and the witness stated that Jeffrey Epstein introduced her to Trump, who subsequently forced her head down and punched her in the head in response to something that she did.

The Columbia University Apartheid Divest group has sparked significant controversy and backlash after posting the phrase “Marg bar Amrika,” which means “Death to America” in Persian, on social media.

The phrase was posted Saturday on its X account after the joint U.S.-Israel military strike on Iran that killed the Ayatollah Khamenei, who popularized the slogan. The post on X went viral before it was deleted.

Columbia University officially denounced the post and distanced itself from the group.

“The group that calls itself ‘CUAD’ is not a recognized student group, or affiliated in any way with the University,” Columbia’s March 1 statement read. “There is no evidence that anyone currently in control of their account is a current Columbia student, staff, or faculty member. They are illegally using the Columbia name.”

CNN is known for feeding red meat — perhaps blue meat? — to their left-of-center followers by showing them “scary” content about the other side of the aisle.

From wall-to-wall Jan. 6 coverage to constant whining about President Donald Trump, CNN is one of the most notorious purveyors of leftist narrative framing.

Now the propaganda machine is churning out new content about “Christian Nationalism” — the apparently radical idea that America is a historically Christian people, and would be blessed by honoring God and His Word.

Last Sunday, as a massive blizzard hit New York City, Comrade Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani posted praise of municipal workers on X: “Grateful for the public workers who keep NYC running — especially in a blizzard. From 5am suhoor with @NYCSanitation to visits to @nycparks’ Randall’s Island garage, DSNY’s Flushing plow shed & @nycdot’s salting operation … it’s working people who show up for NYC.”

Mamdani included four photos, including one of him praying with four Muslim workers from the Department of Sanitation; suhoor is the meal that Muslims eat before dawn during Ramadan, as the fasting period begins with the rising of the sun. He did not, however, bother to explain how observing Ramadan with sanitation workers, or praying with them, did anything to help “keep NYC running.”

As sure as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, if there’s one thing you can set your watch to, it’s the political elite lining their own pockets.

While this is undoubtedly an issue infesting a chunk of American politics, it does seem to be an issue that’s a little more closely intertwined with the Democratic Party (See: Pelosi, Nancy).

That ugly reputation resurfaced again this week when Virginia’s Democrat-controlled Senate and House of Delegates passed the former’s version of the state budget on Thursday, according to WJLA-TV.

Urges political scientists to ‘queer’ their discipline by ‘undoing the cisheteronormative assumptions’

The University of Oxford Department of Politics & International Relations “rounded off” its celebration of LGBTQ+ History Month (February in the U.K.) by interviewing Aylon Cohen, a “departmental lecturer in feminist political theory who’s also written on “queer-feminist theory,” “affect studies,” and “non-human political theory.”

Cohen said he’s currently at work on two “interrelated projects,” one involving “how the criminalization of sodomy and the policing of men’s bodily relations shaped the emergence of fraternity as an political ideal of equality,” and the other on how alleged authoritarian governments “mobilize gender and sexuality as strategies to consolidate power.”

President Donald Trump described the three American military personnel killed during the conflict with Iran as “great people” in a Sunday interview with the Daily Mail.

United States Central Command (CENTCOM) reported three service members were killed in action and at least five others were wounded as of 9:30 a.m. EST Sunday. Trump told the U.K.-based outlet there could be more casualties during Operation Epic Fury. That interview was initially published Sunday before the president posted a six-minute address to Truth Social.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) released a Spanish-language public service announcement informing illegal aliens that they are eligible for “free” daycare in the city.

In the new video, the two Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) members assure illegal aliens that they can sign up for the program, regardless of immigration status.

At the beginning of the video, Mamdani acknowledged his limited Spanish skills.

“Mi español .. no es el major,” Mamdani said, translating to “my Spanish is not great.”

A shocking headline caught my attention today amid the chaos in the Mideast.

Two things stood out.  No — THREE things stood out.

10,000 ships are currently at threat of electronic warfare being fielded over the last 24 hours.

And the headline I ran with — more than 1,000 ships have ALREADY been ‘attacked’ in the waters off the coast of Iran.

And the third thing that rattled me…

Last week, the United States Civil Rights Commission (USCCR) hosted public comment sessions on Antisemitism on America’s College and University Campuses.

As was described in presentations by LIF Founder and Director William A. Jacobson and me, Jews on campus are experiencing abuse, in large part, due to the conduct of academic institutions. In particular, intersectionality ideology dominates campus culture in and out of the classroom.

The office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg declined to charge a 27-year-old male for assaulting police officers at Washington Square Park in New York City.

Gusmane Coulibaly was arrested on Thursday after his picture was circulated on a NYPD tipline for a massive snowball skirmish that happened earlier this week. He was charged with assaulting NYPD officers.

Coulibaly, who was also supposedly an internet personality and wannabe social media influencer known as “Diaperman,” claimed the snowball fight was a prank, according to the New York Post. Notably, Coulibaly was previously arrested on Feb. 6 and charged with attempted robbery at a subway station in the Bronx in New York City.

Oil prices rose and stock markets came under pressure on Monday after intense US-Israeli strikes on Iran prompted fears of significant global economic disruption.

Brent crude jumped by as much as 13% during early trading – to hit $82 per barrel, a 14-month high – as the effective closure of the strait of Hormuz, one of the most important arteries for global trade, intensified concerns over oil supplies.

In Tokyo, the Nikkei 225 fell by nearly 2.4% as traders in Asia responded to the weekend’s developments. It later pulled back, to trade down 1.5%. Pre-market trading also put Wall Street on course to open lower on Monday.

New York City’s far-left socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing fierce backlash after condemning the U.S. military strike that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and effectively ended the brutal regime.

As a joint U.S.–Israel operation unfolded Saturday targeting senior Iranian leadership in Tehran, Mamdani took to X to criticize President Donald Trump’s decision.

His post has since been viewed roughly 20 million times.

A former FBI official is warning of potential Iranian-linked attacks inside the United States following US and Israeli strikes on Iran.

Chris Swecker, a former assistant FBI director, said Iran-linked groups such as Hezbollah could escalate efforts to carry out attacks against the US after Operation Epic Fury, including attacks on American soil. In comments to the Daily Mail, Swecker said, “We’ve got a cornered animal here, and if ever we’re going to see attacks on the United States, this would be the catalyst for that.”

“It’s a tinder box right now,” he added. “You’ve got the leadership of Iran in a state of desperation.”

Texas: Austin bar mass murderer is Muslim migrant, had Qur’an in car

How many mass murderers have to be carrying Qur’ans before authorities anywhere in Europe or North America begin to get the idea that maybe, just maybe, there is something in that book that incites violence?

Police in York Region have not officially said whether the Thornhill shooting is connected to international developments.

An Iranian-owned boxing gym north of Toronto was struck by gunfire early Sunday morning, a day after US President Donald Trump confirmed reports that Iran’s Supreme Leader had been killed.

York Regional Police said officers responded to reports of shots fired around 3 am near Yonge Street and Steeles Avenue West in Thornhill. When they arrived, they found evidence that multiple rounds had been fired at a commercial building. The property was unoccupied at the time. No injuries were reported.

REUTERS–Cuban forces killed four people and wounded six others aboard a Florida-registered speedboat that entered Cuban waters on Wednesday and opened fire on a Cuban patrol, the Cuban government said at a time of heightened tensions with the United States.

Cuba’s Interior Ministry said the group was comprised of anti-government Cubans, some of whom were previously wanted in Cuba. It said the group came from the U.S. armed with assault rifles, handguns, homemade explosives, ballistic vests and telescopic sights.

An additional Cuban suspect was detained inside Cuban territory in connection with the plot, the statement said.

“According to preliminary statements from the detainees, they intended to carry out an infiltration for terrorist purposes,”

As progressive activists blockade Palantir offices and protest the company’s AI tools used in ICE deportation and surveillance operations, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has continued taking millions from the company’s lobbyists, according to new Federal Election Commission filings.

In January alone, more than a dozen lobbyists with firms representing Palantir bundled a combined $2.9 million for the DCCC, according to a newly filed FEC disclosure. The January haul from Palantir’s lobbying firms represents 38% of the DCCC’s total contributions for the month.
