The Prison of the Future – Cognify

Introducing Cognify, the prison of the future. This facility is designed to treat criminals like patients. Instead of spending years in an actual prison cell, prisoners could finish their sentence here in just a few minutes.

Cognify could someday create and implant artificial memories directly into the prisoner’s brain. It could offer a new approach to criminal rehabilitation, transforming how society deals with offenders by focusing on rehabilitation rather than punishment.

The U.S. Army and National Guard acknowledged a soldier’s “debilitating heart condition” is connected to the COVID-19 vaccine, according to a new report by former CBS reporter Catherine Herridge.

Army National Guard Specialist Karoline Stancik, 24, has reportedly racked up over $70,000 in medical debt after being hospitalized for heart complications.

She suffered her first heart attack after receiving the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.

An Army memo about Stancik’s situation acquired by Herridge shows she had been diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or “POTS.” Stancik described having intense adverse reactions to her vaccinations, including high heart rate, neuropathic pain and difficulty breathing.

She was released from active duty in 2022, costing her medical benefits and a salary.

The effects she experienced were so detrimental to her health, Stancik said, that she considered suicide. She now requires a pacemaker and heart surgery….


Election officials in all 50 states urged to halt non-citizen voter registration

A conservative legal group fired off letters to officials in every state in the country Monday urging them to enforce existing laws that prevent non-US citizens from registering to vote or casting ballots in elections, The Post can exclusively reveal.

America First Legal (AFL) wrote to chief elections officers, secretaries of state, attorneys general, lieutenant governors and governors on Monday, calling on them to verify immigration statuses on voter rolls using Department of Homeland Security data — and boot any non-Americans they find.

“If DHS fails to respond to an inquiry, you can sue in federal court to obtain the necessary information that Congress has required DHS to provide,” AFL Executive Director Gene Hamilton said in the letter.

“Given widespread public concern over the presence of foreign nationals on voter rolls in jurisdictions across the United States and unprecedented levels of illegal immigration across our southern border since January 20, 2021, the time to act is now,” he added….


British woman gang raped in Paris after music festival: report

A British woman was allegedly gang raped in central Paris while she was walking home from a music festival early Saturday morning. She was reportedly found crying and clutching her underwear as she stumbled through the streets of Paris after leaving a concert at the Olympia Hall to mark France‘s “Fete de la Musique.”

The tourist, who was found in “a state of significant distress,” per the Daily Mail, was also robbed as she was attacked, according to local police. Investigators have feared the assault was filmed by the assailants. The unnamed victim was taken by police and firefighters to a local hospital where she is now being treated.

She told police she was approached by several men who dragged her to a secluded area, raped her, and stole her phone. No arrests have been made but CCTV is reportedly being reviewed for clues….


Maricopa County temp worker arrested for alleged theft at election center

On Friday, Walter Ringfield, 27, who was on probation for a prior felony, was arrested for allegedly stealing a security fob and keys from MCTEC, KTAR News reported. Ringfield was booked on charges of theft and criminal damage.

MCTEC released a statement to ABC15 on Monday, saying, “Maricopa County Elections has referred a matter to law enforcement that involves an alleged theft of an item by a temporary election worker from the Maricopa County Tabulation and Election Center.

The fob is used for securing tablets at MCTEC.

“A director at the facility stated that the estimated cost of the reprogramming would be greater than $19,000 dollars, and the secure operation of the facility is greatly impeded until the reprogramming is complete,” according to the probable cause statement report, per KTAR News.

Ringfield said he was fired from his job at MCTEC because “they thought he stole something,” according to ABC15.

“Walter stated his reason for taking the fob was because he wanted to ‘clean up,’” per the probable cause statement, reported KTAR News. “Walter said the job was temporary and he was trying to make it permanent, so he wanted to clean up.”


New Video Hints Saudi Arabia Helped Plan 9/11. Why Release It NOW?

Shocking video from 1999 was recently unsealed in a lawsuit by families of 9/11 victims. The video has been in the possession of the FBI and it shows a man filming locations in Washington, DC. The man, who the FBI has identified as a Saudi intelligence agent, discusses a “plan” that required the scouting.

So, was the FBI aware of Saudi involvement in 9/11? And why was this footage released NOW?!

Well, Glenn has a theory: Saudi Arabia is threatening to end the petrodollar? So, is this a threat from the United States in response? If so, Glenn says, “this is another step towards global war.”

The Chinese mafia, Venezuelan criminals, drug cartels and Chilean gangs: The United States suffers an invasion by foreign criminal organizations

Migrants on the southern border are the main victims of criminal gangs that operate on the border with Mexico. (AFP)

In recent years, a series of foreign criminal gangs have begun to have a presence in the United States, and some even took advantage of a series of lax laws in some states to practically take over the marijuana business, bringing with them an avalanche of violence and crime.

Authorities in recent months have revealed that, for example, Chinese organized crime is running lucrative slave-labor drug farms in a half-dozen U.S. states. This situation unfolds as thousands of Chinese migrants cross the southern border every month, exposing themselves to an entire human trafficking network by foreign gangs who use illegal migration to boost their illicit businesses.

However, the established criminal gangs come not only from China but also from the American continent.

Notably, the main Mexican drug cartels now have a presence in every state in the country. Likewise, authorities detected that Tren de Aragua, a dangerous, fast-growing Venezuelan gang, also has a presence in several important cities in the country, feeding off the border crisis. Although it is not technically illegal migration, dozens of Chilean gangs are taking advantage of a visa agreement between the United States and Chile to settle in the country and carry out a lucrative business of robbing luxury mansions.

Meanwhile, the drug business or robberies are not the only concerns of the authorities, who in the last month detected eight illegal migrants possibly linked to ISIS. This situation generates particular fear due to the growing threat of terrorist attacks in the country as conflicts develop in the Middle East, where Washington has had a presence or influence….


Argentina: Javier Milei celebrates first week without food inflation in 30 years

Cordon Press

It has been a historic week for Argentina. A country known for its high inflation has just experienced its first week without price increases in food and beverages in three decades, according to private consulting firm Econométrica.

The good last week crowns a good month for the libertarian. In addition to his first legislative victories since he took the reins of the country more than four months ago, he received a warm welcome in a series of international meetings.

The analysis of 8,000 online supermarket prices also showed that the monthly rise will be 3%. Overall inflation, including items beyond food, will be higher in June than May due to the rise in tariffs, according to a study reported by Infobae.

He was awarded in Spain, had a cordial meeting with Kristalina Gueorguieva, manager of the International Monetary Fund. He was invited by his peer Giorgia Meloni to the G7 meeting in Italy and met with his compatriot Pope Francis.

Milei has been making headlines around the globe. These latest favorable economic figures are the latest evidence of the “Milei Miracle,” as it was dubbed by U.S. analyst Mike Gonzalez. They were also recognized by personalities such as Chilean commentator Axel Kaiser and Canadian psychologist and author Jordan Peterson:..


Illegal Crossings At Northern Border Have Spiked Over 1,000% Under Biden

There have so far been 12,859 illegal migrant crossings along the northern border in fiscal year 2024, with several months still left to go, according to the latest data provided by Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

Despite only eight months of data available, the number of illegal border crossings this fiscal year have already surpassed all other years of President Joe Biden’s tenure, and represent a marked increase from his first year in office. 

The uptick in northern border crossings come as the Biden administration has overseen a recent drop in the number of illegal immigrants appearing at the southern border.

Border Patrol agents reported 170,723 illegal migrant crossings in May, marking the third consecutive month of decline at the U.S.-Mexico border, according to CBP data….

California: No. 1 in Gun Control, No. 1 in ‘Active Shooter Incidents’ in 2023

Aric Crabb/MediaNews Group/Mercury News via Getty Images

ABC News commented on the FBI findings, noting, “California had the largest number of active shooting incidents with eight. The locations of the shootings were open spaces, places of businesses and education centers.”

Fox News likewise noted, “California – which has some of the toughest gun control laws in the country – led the way with eight incidents.”

Breitbart News reported previous FBI data that showed California led the U.S. in “active shooter incidents” in 2021 as well, with six such incidents.

Ironically, California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) consistently lauds the alleged success of gun control in his state while criticizing the loser gun laws in states in other parts of the country, such as Florida.

For example, on May 13, 2023, he tweeted, “It HAS to be the humidity. Why else would California’s gun violence rate be 57% lower than Florida’s?”

However, whereas the FBI data shows California led the nation with eight “active shooter incidents” in 2023, Florida only witnessed two such incidents, or one-fourth what occurred in Newsom’s state.

Russia Summons U.S. Ambassador over Ukraine’s Alleged Use of American Missiles in Crimea Strike

(AP) — The Russian Foreign Ministry summoned the American ambassador on Monday to protest what it says was the use of U.S.-made advanced missiles in a Ukrainian attack on Russian-annexed Crimea that reportedly killed four people and wounded more than 150.

Washington “has effectively become a party” to the war on Ukraine’s side, the ministry said in a statement, adding, “Retaliatory measures will certainly follow.” It did not elaborate.

Russian authorities said that the dead in Sunday’s attack included two children who were hit by falling debris from Ukrainian missiles that were shot down over a coastal area in Sevastopol, a port city in Crimea. It said cluster munitions, which critics say harm more civilians than combatants, were also used.

Russia said the missiles were U.S.-made ATACMS, a long-range, guided missile. It summoned U.S. Ambassador Lynne Tracy to the Foreign Ministry.

The targeting and “mission input” for such missile attacks is carried out by U.S. military experts, the ministry statement alleged, saying the United States bears “equal responsibility for this outrage” with the Ukrainian authorities…

Trump Campaign’s Karoline Leavitt: It’s ‘Shocking’ How ‘Triggering the Truth Is to CNN’

CNN’s Kasie Hunt could not tolerate Leavitt briefly highlighting Jake Tapper’s long history of criticizing former President Donald Trump.

It was a relevant point during the pre-presidential debate conversation, as Tapper is co-hosting the network’s presidential debate on Thursday.

Following that display from CNN, Leavitt said, “CNN cutting off my microphone for bringing up a debate moderator’s history of anti-Trump lies just proves our point that President Trump will not be treated fairly in Thursday’s debate.”

“It is really shocking just how triggering the truth is to CNN,” she began, explaining that she was simply pointing out that Trump is brave for agreeing to do this debate when the cards are stacked against him.

“That’s all I was doing was pointing out the fact that President Trump is bold to go on a three on one fight on a network that is clearly hostile to him,” she explained…

New distressing details emerged in the murder case of Rachel Morin, including that the Maryland mother of five was “badly beaten” before being raped.

A Maryland court heard Friday that Victor Antonio Martinez Hernandez, a 23-year-old illegal El Salvadorian migrant accused of raping and killing Morin, brutally beat, strangled and raped his victim before leaving her behind partially naked, according to a report from the New York Post.

Randolph Rice, an attorney for the Morin family, told the New York Post the mother of five had “10-15 head wounds and the manner of death was strangulation and blunt force injuries.”

Police say the fatal assault of Morin was brutal enough that the family believed she looked like “her head had been smashed with a rock.”…
