Three people were injured after gunfire erupted on the set of rapper Lil Baby’s music video production Tuesday.

The video was being filmed in northwest Atlanta, Georgia, near a business area when someone opened fire wounding three men, according to Hip Hop DX.

One 27-year-old victim was struck in the back, a second, 24, in the arm, and the third, a 23-year-old man, was hit in the neck, but police officials say all three will survive their wounds.

The rapper, who was arrested on drug charges in Paris in 2021, was not one of those short during the incident.

A report recently released by US News & World Report has revealed that Washington and Oregon are among the most dangerous states in the nation.

The report, which relied on the latest data from the Federal Bureau of Investigations for corrections outcomes and public safety, put Oregon, the Beaver State, in 46th place while its neighbor to the north came in 39th.

According to the data, Oregon had an incarceration rate of 295 per 100,000 residents, and a juvenile incarceration rate of 121 per 100,000 juveniles. The violent crime rate sat at 342 per 100,000 residents, slightly lower than the national average of 381 per 100,000 residents.

While the state was only slightly below the national average when it came to incarceration and violent crime, its rate of incarcerated juveniles was three times higher.

The outlet noted that the FAA included the plane’s registration number, N757AF, which FAA records show belonging to DJT Operations I LLC.

The report indicated that any damage that might have occurred in the incident was as yet unknown, but that no one had been injured.

On a typically quiet rural road late Friday night in San Diego County, a tragic accident claimed the lives of two prominent political figures from the Bay Area. The crash involved a head-on collision between a Jeep pickup and a Chrysler sedan, which occurred on state Highway 76 near Fallbrook outside of San Diego. The collision resulted in the deaths of four people, including a couple renowned for their contributions to political advocacy and community development.

Hope Wood, 48, and her wife, Peggy Moore, who were both pronounced dead at the scene, were well-respected for their long-standing public service and civil rights work. Wood, recognized by the San Diego County Medical Examiner, was particularly noted for her visionary work in organizing and strategy. Moore, a former president of the East Bay Stonewall Democratic Club, was remembered as a force for change in Oakland and across the East Bay.

On Tuesday’s episode of “The View,” ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos expressed his belief that the Deep State was “packed with patriots.”

Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said: “The book is so good. My favorite thing is you interviewed Situation Room staff. I have always said it’s White House staff whose names you’ll never know are the writers of history. They will tell us so many details.”

Stephanopoulos said: “That was my favorite part about doing the book. I interviewed about a hundred duty officers from the White House and these are people who come, they are relatively young people who come from all over the government, the CIA, the DIA, the Defense Department, military.”

The Washington Post’s opinion editor Alexi McCammond expressed dismay over why Democrats’ lawfare trials haven’t fully kneecapped former President Donald Trump after a new poll shows Trump clobbering President Joe Biden in key swing states.

“How in the world is Trump’s trial not hurting him?” a clueless McCammond posed in her headline. “How is the former president still ahead of Biden in recent polls?”

“Donald Trump has been trapped in a courtroom for most of the past month, depriving his MAGA fans of more frequent campaign rallies and events,” McCammond writes. “Yet fresh polling shows that the trial hasn’t hurt Trump’s 2024 reelection bid, nor has it helped President Biden look better to voters.”

During Tuesday’s broadcast of ABC’s “The View,” actor Robert De Niro asserted that former President Donald Trump and his supporters were consumed by anger and hatred.

Co-host Sunny Hostin said: “Some people have criticized you, because you’ve been pretty open about your dislike for Mr. Trump and the dangers he poses to democracy. You once famously said you’d like to punch him in the face. But right now he’s leading in the polls in five battleground states. Any advice to the Biden campaign or the voters? What are you thinking?”

Heavily censored, De Niro replied: “Well, I think I don’t understand why people are not taking him seriously. Because you read about it historically in other countries that they didn’t take the people seriously. I think of Hitler and Mussolini, ‘Oh, they’re fools and clowns.’ I hear it from some people. I mean, who does not think that this guy is going to do exactly what he says he’s going to do? He’s done it already. And then what? We’re going to sit around and say, what, ‘We told you so?’”

If MSNBC was hoping to display cracks in the MAGA coalition stemming from former President Donald Trump’s criminal trials, its hosts will have to track down a more pro-Biden focus group than they did this week.

Correspondent Blayne Alexander was in Gwinnett County, Georgia this week where she interviewed three Trump-supporting residents who said the former president’s various legal troubles appear politically motivated and conveniently timed to hurt his campaign.

Asked whether the trials have caused his support to waver, Antonio Jones said the opposite. “It’s actually caused me to support him more. I just don’t believe there’s a coincidence that we have a trial happening in Atlanta, we have one happening in New York. So the question people are beginning to ask themselves, like I did, ‘Why now?’”

BREAKING: New York Appeals Court Decides to Uphold Judge Juan Merchan’s Gag Order

On Tuesday, a New York Appeals court dismissed President Trump’s appeal to lift Judge Juan Merchan’s gag order.

The appeals court stated that Judge Merchan “properly weighed” Trump’s First Amendment rights.

“We find that Justice Merchan properly weighed petitioner’s First Amendment Rights against the court’s historical commitment to ensuring the fair administration of justice in criminal cases, and the right of persons related or tangentially related to the criminal proceedings from being free from threats, intimidation, harassment, and harm,” as per the order.

The New York appeals court stated that Trump’s public statements threatened the integrity of witness testimony:

“Justice Merchan properly determined that petitioner’s public statements posed a significant threat to the integrity of the testimony of witnesses and potential witnesses in this case as well.”

The University of North Carolina (UNC) Chapel Hill revealed on Monday, May 13, plans to divert $2.3 million of funding originally designated to pay for DEI officers and programs. Instead, the funding will be used to beef up their campus police presence.

The move comes after Hamas supporters terrorized the university after the Gaza War broke out. This is the same school where fraternity brothers went viral for protecting an American flag from Hamas activists.

On Monday, the board of trustees at the University of North Carolina (UNC) Chapel Hill voted to completely abolish the school’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, and will redirect the remaining funds towards the campus police and other public safety measures.

According to Fox News, the decision by the board was unanimous. The reallocated funding is at least $2.3 million, compared to the university’s overall budget of $4 billion.

Judge Adena Darkeh gave Brooklyn resident Dexter Taylor 10 years for building his own gun in a trial that saw the judge bar Taylor from using the 2nd Amendment as a defense. Darkeh stated at the beginning of the trial, “Do not bring the Second Amendment into this courtroom. It doesn’t exist here. So you can’t argue Second Amendment. This is New York.”

Judge Abena Darkeh sentenced Dexter Taylor, a Brooklyn software engineer, to ten years in prison for building firearms in his apartment. Officials labeled them as “ghost guns.”

… From RedState:

The judge disrupted [Taylor defense attorney Vinoo] Varghese’s opening statement multiple times as he tried to set the stage for Taylor’s defense. Even further, she admonished the defense to refrain from mentioning the Second Amendment during the trial. Varghese told RedState:

She told us, ‘Do not bring the Second Amendment into this courtroom. It doesn’t exist here. So you can’t argue Second Amendment. This is New York.’

Varghese said he had filed the appropriate paperwork to “preserve these arguments for appeal” but that the judge “rejected these arguments, and she went out of her way to limit me.”

The growing list of Pro-Life activists behind bars under the direct action of President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) now includes 30-year-old Lauren Handy, who was arrested after peacefully protesting in front of an unborn child murder center. She is a member of Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly sentenced a pro-life activist on Tuesday to 57 months in prison and three years supervision for her participation in a peaceful pro-life protest at one the capital city’s most controversial abortion facilities.

Lauren Handy, 30, was one of several members of the Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU), a primarily leftist organization with a pro-life streak, who initiated a “rescue and protest” at late-term abortionist Cesare Santangelo’s Washington, D.C., facility in October 2020.

“Some simply kneeled and prayed at Santangelo’s facility, some passed out pro-life literature and counseled abortion-minded women, and others roped and chained themselves together inside the facility,” Handy’s lawyers at the Thomas More Society noted.

Handy, PAAU’s director of Activism and Mutual Aid, decided to protest at Santangelo’s facility in particular after she heard him admit on an undercover video that he “would not help” a baby born alive after a botched abortion.

“My belief that was formed after watching the video was if the fetus survived the abortion attempt, they were left to die,” Handy told the court during witness testimony.

According to the American Medical Association (AMA), almost 90 percent of American adults suffer from a newly defined heart disease called Cardiovascular, kidney, and metabolic (CKM) syndrome. An explanation for why the new definition was issued and how 90 percent of Americans suffer from it was not forthcoming.

Health experts are redefining cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, prevention and management, according to a new American Heart Association presidential advisory published today in the Association’s flagship journal Circulation…

The risks are greatest among older adults, men, and Black individuals, the report, which was published in JAMA Wednesday, found.

The American Heart Association (AHA) introduced a new staging system in 2023 — called CKM syndrome — to better treat and manage cardiovascular, kidney, and metabolic diseases, since they are deeply connected and often require a multidisciplinary approach.

Via Journal of the American Medical Association (emphasis added):

Almost 90% of US adults met criteria for CKM syndrome (stage 1 or higher) and 15% met criteria for advanced stages, neither of which improved between 2011 and 2020. The lack of progress, in part, may reflect concomitant improvement and worsening of different risk factors over time. Substantial between-subgroup differences in advanced stages were observed, with older age, men, and Black adults at increased risk.”

Co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case involving ex-President Trump have submitted appeals to the Georgia Court of Appeals, aiming to have Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis removed from the case.

The appeals court announced last week that it will consider the case brought forth by Trump and several co-accused, arguing that Willis should be removed from the case due to an alleged “inappropriate” relationship with special counsel Nathan Wade, whom she appointed.


Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, Cathy Latham, and Michael Roman submitted their appeals on Monday in the case. They joined former Georgia GOP leader David Shafer in initiating the briefing procedures before the court, as reported by WSB-TV.

In March, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee ruled that Wade must be replaced to prevent Willis from being disqualified in the sweeping racketeering case against Trump.

Former lawyer to President Donald Trump, Michael Cohen, returned to the witness stand for a second consecutive day, faced with probing questions from prosecutors. Yet, amid the legal fireworks, one remark during Tuesday’s proceedings stood out starkly, suggesting possible perjury.

Jonathan Turley, the seasoned analyst closely monitoring the trial, relayed his skepticism to ‘America’s Newsroom’ co-host Dana Perino over his testimony, specifically Cohen’s rationale behind secretly recording Trump. Cohen claimed the recordings were intended to ensure that David Pecker, former publisher of the National Enquirer, remained honest and fulfilled his financial obligations. The explanation, however, seemed implausible to Turley and many others following the case.

Reaction has been swift and severe when it comes to reports that the Biden administration was halting aid to Israel. President Joe Biden himself also just last week confirmed to CNN’s Erin Burnett that he would halt aid if our ally in the Middle East dared move forward with their operation in Rafah. On Tuesday, the House Rules Committee will meet on the Israel Security Assistance Support Act. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) mentioned a vote could come as soon as Wednesday.

On Monday evening, Axios reported on how “Democrats face rupture over vote to force Israel arms shipments,” with a focus on Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY). “I have a general rule of supporting pro-Israel legislation unless it includes a poison pill–like cuts to domestic policy,” he’s quoted as telling the outlet.

In a notable move to protect gun owners’ privacy, Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey (R) signed into law the Second Amendment Financial Privacy Act on May 6. This move was met with high praise from pro-gun rights groups, especially the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), which issued a press release lauding the passage of the law.

The legislation is a response to efforts to have credit card companies and other financial institutions track gun-related purchases ostensibly to help law enforcement prevent crimes using firearms. It is aimed at shielding the financial privacy of Alabama residents and preventing the private sector from creating a de facto gun registry.

The newly signed law prohibits financial institutions from assigning a specific Merchant Category Code (MCC) to firearm-related purchases. This move will not only protect the privacy of gun owners, but it will also prevent discrimination against firearm retailers. It also bars the creation or maintenance of any database or registry that tracks private firearm ownership in the state.

(LifeSiteNews) — Members of the Liberal Democrats Party in the United Kingdom (UK) are sounding the alarm over the deselection of one of their Member of Parliament (MP) candidates, which they say is due to his Christian faith and a breach of equality law.

The concerned members have lodged a complaint with the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) over the party’s treatment of David Campanale, an Anglican and award-winning veteran BBC journalist who has been targeted at least in part due to his Christian faith.

The Lib Dem whistleblowers have accused the party of having fostered a “hostile environment” for religious people and “emboldened those who believe Christians should be driven out of public life,” according to The Telegraph.

Campanale shared in November 2022 that after he was “overwhelmingly selected” for a Liberal Democrats selection “in a top target parliamentary seat,” he was called to the home of the party’s honorary president and was asked beforehand, “Are you ready for the Spanish Inquisition?”

Far-left activists on social media have begun organizing a campaign to target celebrities, media personalities, and influencers who haven’t yet made a statement on the war between Israel and Hamas, demanding that they take the side of Hamas.

Breitbart reports that the movement was started by TikTok user @LadyFromTheOutside, who posted a video saying that “it’s time for the people to conduct what I want to call a ‘digital guillotine,’ a ‘digitine,’ if you will.”

“It’s time to block all the celebrities, influencers, and wealthy socialites who are not using their resources to help those in dire need,” she continued. “We gave them their platforms. It’s time to take it back, take our views away, our likes, our comments, our money, by blocking them all on social media and digital platforms.”

University College London (UCL) Professor of Geophysical & Climate Hazards Bill McGuire posted a controversial message to social media on Saturday, appearing to support mass depopulation.

Posting an article that questioned how prepared mankind is for a potential Bird Flu outbreak to his X account, McGuire wrote, “If I am brutally honest, the only realistic way I see emissions falling as fast as they need to, to avoid catastrophic climate breakdown, is the culling of the human population by a pandemic with a very high fatality rate.”

One day later, McGuire posted that he deleted his pro-depopulation message not because he regretted it, but “because so many people out there have mistakenly or intentionally taken it the wrong way.”

McGuire, a self-described socialist, later repeatedly lied about his post that clearly stated a “culling of the human population” was the only way humanity could hypothetically see emissions drastically fall.

“It’s about suddenly falling economic activity. Not people dying,” he stated.

“I am talking about reduced economic activity NOT reduced population,” he claimed again.

There is a 50% increased risk of a first time psychiatric treatment in the year following a first abortion, according to a newly published reanalysis of Danish medical records. The elevated risk was highest (87% increased risk) for personality and behavioral disorders.

This study corrects the methodological errors of a previous analysis which reported that there were no differences in psychiatric treatment rates before and after a first abortion, according to the study’s author, David Reardon, director of the Elliot Institute.

The previous study revealed the rate of first time mental health treatments was much higher after an abortion than after a live birth. But when the authors looked at the rates of first time psychiatric treatments during the nine months prior to an abortion, they found they were already higher for the group of women who would soon be seeking abortion.  Moreover, the authors reported that the rates of treatment during one, two, and three month periods after the abortion, while higher, were not statistically different than the rate reported in the nine months preceding abortion.

On August 29, 2023, a D.C. jury found Hinshaw, Lauren Handy, Will Goodman, Heather Idoni, and Rosemary “Herb” Geraghty guilty of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act and “conspiracy against rights.” The next month, Joan Andrews Bell, Jonathan Darnel, and Jean Marshall were convicted of the same; Paulette Harlow’s conviction came in November.

Tuesday’s hearings, before U.S. District Judge for the District of Columbia Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, began with Handy starting at 9:00 AM, with Hinshaw following at 10:30 AM. Goodman’s hearing is scheduled for 3:00 PM.

A Washington, D.C., judge with a history of “woke” activism decided there was no need to incarcerate an 18-year-old man who fired an AR-15 more than a dozen times at an SUV full of people fleeing through a busy neighborhood.

The shooting took place in the 1700 block of Independence Ave SE, a predominantly black neighborhood.

Despite the left waging war on guns and so-called “gun violence,” Superior Court Judge Lloyd U. Nolan, Jr. decided Amonte Moody wasn’t a threat to the black community he had just sprayed with 26 rounds and summarily released him.

 

 

I’m done hearing the left whine about how “gun violence disproportionately affects the black community” until judges like Nolan and others stop letting violent perps walk out of court and back into the black neighborhoods they terrorize.

Conversely though unrelated, an UNARMED pro-life protestor was just sent to prison for 57 months for blocking the entrance to an abortion clinic in Washington, D.C., back in 2020.

Lauren Handy was handed a four-year, nine-month prison sentence Monday, minus nine months for time served, and is looking at a solid four years in prison.

REMINDER-O-RAMA! The man who fired 26 rounds in a busy D.C. neighborhood was granted house arrest and was released. Handy spent nine months in jail after being arrested at the abortion clinic.

Handy and her friends chained themselves together in front of the entrance to an abortion clinic where they sang hymns and prayed. None were armed when arrested and no shots had been fired.

On Tuesday, Handy’s friend John Hinshaw, 69, was given a 21-month sentence, minus nine months for time served. He will go away for one year.

A handful of other pro-lifers arrested with Handy and Hinshaw have yet to be sentenced. One is facing 11 years behind bars.

What Have We Learned?

We know that at least two peaceful pro-lifers spent nine months in prison after being arrested for protesting, praying, and singing in front of the doors of an abortion clinic, while the same city released a gunman who sprayed 26 shots in a busy, black neighborhood. The gunman is black, and he fired indiscriminately in a black community. We have also learned black kids are hit by more stray bullets than any other group.

 

The two pro-lifers are white and were protesting against abortion in a predominantly black city. Statistics show black women have more abortions than any other ethnic group. Thus, two white people attempting to save the lives of unborn children — who were likely black — got jail time after they were arrested, while a man who might have killed black people is sitting at home today.

Irony, table for two. Irony?

FACT-O-RAMA! None of the J6 prisoners who are still sitting in the D.C. gulag are accused of firing weapons.

The writing is on the wall. Washington, D.C., is a Marxist toilet and should be avoided by conservatives who don’t want to end up in jail, even for attempting to save the lives of unborn black children.

According to records released May 7 by Blacklock’s Reporter, the Department of National Defence has paid consultants and contractors $9,510,247 to promote “equity and inclusion” within the military.   

“It is clear a lack of diversity in the Canadian Armed Forces is just one of the issues confronting this government,” a 2021 briefing note claimed. “National Defence is committed to building an inclusive and modern defence team that reflects Canada’s diversity, values and culture.” 

The spending was disclosed in the House of Commons in response to Conservative MP Cheryl Gallant’s question: “What is the total value of contracts relating to diversity, equity and inclusion services in the Department of National Defence since 2015?”
