A scientist experimenting with anti-gravity tech was found dead at 34 after warning that her life could be in danger, marking another mysterious case of deaths and disappearances in recent years. Amy Eskridge was just 34 years old when she allegedly died from a self-inflicted gunshot to the head in Huntsville, Alabama on June 11, 2022. However, neither the police nor the medical examiners have publicly released any details of an investigation ever taking place. Before her death, she was openly researching and trying to develop anti-gravity technology, a way to control or cancel out gravity, which could revolutionize space travel and energy production. Anti-gravity propulsion has also been widely discussed by UFO researchers, who have claimed this advanced technology is what allows alien spacecraft to achieve impossible speeds.
Another person with links to America's nuclear secrets has gone missing as the disturbing list of deaths and disappearances in recent years continues to grow. Steven Garcia, 48, vanished without a trace on August 28, 2025. He was last seen leaving his Albuquerque, New Mexico home on foot, carrying only a handgun. An anonymous source told the Daily Mail that Garcia was a government contractor working for the Kansas City National Security Campus (KCNSC), a major facility in Albuquerque that plays a key behind-the-scenes role in America's national defense. Specifically, KCNSC manufactures more than 80 percent of all the non-nuclear components that go into building the military's nuclear weapons.
The disappearance of a rocket scientist has taken a chilling new turn after it emerged she holds a one-of-a-kind patent tied to advanced US launch systems. Monica Jacinto Reza, 60, was last seen hiking in the rugged San Gabriel Wilderness area in the Angeles National Forest on June 22 last year, at about 9.10am local time. Several reports in the forum EISPIRATEN indicated that a man walking about 30ft ahead of Reza on the trail to the Waterman Mountain summit turned around moments later and discovered she had vanished without a trace. According to those familiar with the hike, Reza was carrying a backpack believed to contain several liters of water when she disappeared.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has defended Iran's inalienable right to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes, saying that Russia accepts any decision that suits the Iranian side. Speaking at a press conference in Beijing on Wednesday, following talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Lavrov asserted that Moscow is prepared to assist in resolving issues surrounding Iran's nuclear program. He was echoing the stance that "every country has the right to enrich uranium exclusively for peaceful purposes," a right he affirmed extends to the Islamic Republic. "Russia will accept any decision that suits the Iranian side" within these "legitimate rights," Lavrov stated, highlighting Moscow's readiness to play a role in any potential resolution concerning enriched uranium. He outlined possible contributions, including reprocessing highly enriched uranium into fuel for nuclear power plants or transferring specified amounts to Russia for storage, all while respecting Iran's right to...
A post‑Orbán reset is coming, but Péter Magyar's nationalism tempers his pro‑EU signals; expect cooperation on Ukraine and security, and resistance on cultural and sovereignty issues. The Hungarian vote mattered far beyond Budapest: it would reshape EU unity on sanctions, funding, and enlargement; decide whether a NATO member remained a reliably cooperative partner; and influence Kyiv's lifeline amid war. Washington watched for the future of transatlantic cohesion; Kyiv for the fate of crucial EU aid and diplomatic backing; Brussels for a more aligned, rule‑of‑law‑compliant member; and Moscow for keeping a reliable Western partner. A single ballot thus carried outsized geopolitical weight, testing whether Hungary would stay an unpredictable outlier or return to the European fold. Who Hungary's New Prime Minister Is Péter Magyar's sudden ascent in Hungary has reset expectations in Brussels and Kyiv, but whether Hungary will become a reliable partner again depends on a simple,...
President Trump was presented with a great opportunity on Saturday to take the off-ramp from his war on Iran. After threatening Iran that "a whole civilization will die tonight," Trump managed to get a two week pause in the war with the intervention of the Pakistani government. A window opened to end this illegal war. Vice President Vance traveled to Pakistan to negotiate with a high-level Iranian delegation and from press reporting progress was made on many issues. Unfortunately, after a month and a half of war, where tens of billions of dollars have been spent, every US base in the region is either damaged or destroyed, and dozens of military aircraft have been lost, President Trump did not take the off-ramp. He hit the accelerator. After 21 hours of negotiations, the talks blew up, reportedly because the US side again insisted that Iran turn over its enriched uranium, destroy its nuclear facilities, and never enrich uranium again. This may be the "maximalist" approach favored by...
US Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky has introduced a federal spending restraint bill, called the "Six Penny Plan" that may actually work. The basic concept is simple. Each year for the next five years Congress would reduce the federal budget by six percent from the previous year's budget. In five years the annual budget would be in balance, and the total federal debt will be on a path to being paid off. How the "Rand Plan" is Different One may ask how this plan differs from other spending restraint plans. Notice that the bill does not single out specific areas for spending reduction, such as President Trump's failed DOGE plan. The bill is an across-the-board reduction, which leaves each federal agency to decide where and what to cut. For example, the Pentagon would have its budget reduced by six percent, forcing it to allocate funding among its major commands. The same would be the case with Social Security, Medicare, the EPA, etc. No agency would be exempt, although we can assume...
The German capital is hardly a hospitable place for entrepreneurs or founders. Ambitious individuals who aim to build a career outside the state subsidy system and establish their own livelihoods encounter, in this strangest of European capitals, an atmosphere of contempt and hostility. Berlin politics, regardless of who is currently in power, fosters a culture of societal division. Parties spare no effort in masking the jointly caused economic and social distortions in the city with an endless media spectacle. Unemployment rises — naturally, the entrepreneurs are blamed. Rents are unaffordable — it has, of course, nothing to do with open borders or mass immigration. Responsibility lies with the greed of landlords, who have elevated exploitation to their fundamental operating principle. In Berlin, apprenticeship positions are now scarce. Naturally, entrepreneurs are also blamed in this case. It could never be because politics, with its green ideological zeal, may have let the...
Snowfall warnings in effect for much of southern Alberta Calgarians were in for another slippery commute Thursday after a spring snowstorm plunged the city back into winter driving conditions. Heavy snow is expected to continue to fall throughout the day, with total accumulations of 15 to 30 centimetres, according to Environment and Climate Change Canada. "Poor visibility due to blowing snow is occurring in some areas and will continue until mid-morning," the agency said in its yellow-level snowfall warning for the city. Yellow-level snowfall warnings are also in effect for much of southwestern Alberta. Calgary Transit has put all of its snow detour routes into effect and is asking riders to check if their route is affected while planning their trips. "We are working hard to get you to your destination safely, so please be patient and give yourself extra travel time," Calgary Transit said on its website.
Heavy rains and storms are staying in the forecast as floodwaters swamped areas across Northern Michigan on April 14, 2026. The dangerously rising waters have prompted evacuations in some residential areas, triggered the failure of small dams, and has state and local officials closely monitoring larger dams near populated areas as high water threatens to overtop them and flood areas downstream. The Little Traverse Conservancy flew a drone over some of its preservation areas to monitor flooding in Petoskey, Conway, Alanson, Indian River and Pigeon River.

Ursula von der Leyen just crowed that the EU's age verification app is "technically ready" and will be shoved down our throats any day now. Ireland is one of the "frontrunners" already building a digital wallet that verifies your age using your PPS number (that's your Irish social security ID folks). They want you to download their app, feed it your passport or national ID, and then "prove your age" every time you hit an online platform. Just like buying booze in a shop, says the EU President. "No more excuses" for platforms. But here's the punchline they're ramming down with their jackhammer: the app "respects the highest privacy standards in the world," is "completely anonymous," and based on open source code so even non-EU countries can copy the surveillance model. Bullshit. This is the same EU that wrote GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), their precious data-protection bible and then immediately violates every core principle in it. Data minimisation? Gone. They're...

The Justice Department is petitioning an appeals court to throw out the convictions of unpardoned defendants who were charged in connection with the U.S. Capitol breach on Jan. 6, 2021. "The United States has determined ... that dismissal of this criminal case is in the interests of justice," read a motion filed April 14 in the case of Elmer Stewart Rhodes III, Kelly Meggs, Kenneth Harrelson, and Jessica Watkins. All four defendants belonged to the Oath Keepers, a group that says its members are mostly former military, police, and medics who are dedicated to upholding Constitutional rights. Rhodes, the group's founder, had been one of the most high-profile Jan. 6 defendants; he was sentenced to 18 years in prison for seditious conspiracy and other charges. In their motion filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, federal prosecutors said they would file separate motions-to-vacate in "similar" Jan. 6 cases.
Heavy rains and flooding in the Dominican Republic and Haiti have killed at least 19 people and displaced thousands more, according to the latest toll by officials and the Red Cross. Powerful storms that began April 7 have continued dumping rain on the neigboring Caribbean nations -- which share the island of Hispaniola -- with authorities staying vigilant despite ebbing intensity of rainfall in recent hours. Haiti's civil protection agency on Tuesday reported 12 deaths across several departments. Dominican authorities on Wednesday put the death toll in the country at seven. "Five bodies have been recovered," civil defense director Juan Salas told AFP, adding to two deaths confirmed last week.
Algeria has been hit by two terror attacks during Pope Leo XIV's visit, officials say - though at this point there doesn't appear to have been any direct effort at targeting the Pope or his accompanying officials. Twin suicide attacks rocked a city outside Algeria's capital Monday, just as the American-born Pontiff began his historic visit to the country, AFP reports. "There were two security incidents yesterday afternoon in Blida, incidents of a terrorist nature. Two suicide bombers blew themselves up and were killed," a source told AFP on Tuesday. The city in question is a little less than 30 miles southwest of Algiers.

The Israeli prime minister said US Vice President JD Vance spoke with him after the Pakistan talks. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that he spoke with Vice President JD Vance after the US-Iran talks in Pakistan and described the call as part of a daily report the Trump administration provides him. "I spoke yesterday with Vice President J.D. Vance. He called me from his plane on his way back from Islamabad. He reported to me in detail, as this administration does every day, about the development of the negotiations," Netanyahu said at a cabinet meeting, according to Axios reporter Barak Ravid. The comments from Netanyahu highlight the close coordination between the US and Israel on Iran. Ravid reported in early March that US envoy Steve Witkoff and President Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who has known Netanyahu since he was a child, were speaking to Netanyahu and other Israeli officials nearly every day. Witkoff and Kushner led the negotiations with...
