Man Arrested With Firearms Near Trump Rally in Feared 3rd Assassination Attempt

Authorities detained a Las Vegas resident on Saturday during a checkpoint near a rally held by former President Donald Trump in California’s Coachella Valley.

The individual, identified as 49-year-old Vem Miller, stands accused of possessing a loaded firearm, a shotgun, and a high-capacity magazine. Deputies stopped Miller in a black SUV at Avenue 52 and Celebration Drive, according to law enforcement sources. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department reported that the arrest was conducted without any issues. Miller was subsequently processed at the John J. Benoit Detention Center. Charges against him include possession of a loaded firearm and possession of a high-capacity magazine. It is unclear at the time of publication if Miller was part of a third assassination plot against Trump, with plenty of speculation on social media.

Trump Campaign Requests Military Aircraft With Antimissile Capabilities Amid Iran Threat

military aircraft, vehicles, & assets with deterrent systems…

Donald Trump has survived two assassination attempts within a very short period of time, but now with less than a month to go till the November election, his campaign is reportedly requesting the use of military aircraft and vehicles to protect him. Sources who spoke to the New York Times and Washington Post in Friday stories indicate the former president has requested much greater protections that US Secret Service agents currently provide him. There are also new reports saying he's unlikely to play golf again until new expanded protocols are in place, as the Secret Service would have trouble protecting him on a golf course.

There are reports suggesting that Mohammadreza Fallahzadeh, the deputy commander of the IRGC-Quds Force, has been appointed as the temporary “supervisor” for Hezbollah until a new secretary-general is selected.

Araghchi appears to threaten US over possible deployment of soldiers in Israel to operate complex missile defense system, as Israel said to narrow down potential targets

Iran on Sunday said it has “no red lines” in defending itself, as Israel is said to be zeroing in on a list of targets it could strike in retaliation for the missile attack from its arch-foe two weeks ago. In a social media post, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi also indirectly threatened United States forces potentially operating a complex missile defense system in Israel. “The US has been delivering record amount of arms to Israel,” wrote Araghchi on X. “It is now also putting lives of its troops at risk by deploying them to operate US missile systems in Israel.”

Chechen leader Kadyrov accuses Russian MPs of plotting his murder, TASS says

LONDON, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Ramzan Kadyrov, leader of Russia's Chechnya region, has accused Russian lawmakers from neighbouring regions of attempting to commission his assassination, and threatened them with a "blood feud", the state news agency TASS reported on Thursday.

The dispute has its origins in a corporate merger involving Russia's largest online retailer, Wildberries, outside whose Moscow office two people were killed in a shootout last month. Kadyrov has described Wildberries' merger with outdoor advertising firm Russ Group as an "asset grab". TASS cited Kadyrov, in comments made on Wednesday, as naming three lawmakers behind the alleged plot to kill him. "If they do not prove otherwise, I will officially declare a blood feud," he was quoted as saying at a meeting with security officials.

Chechen leader Declares Blood Feud

Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov has ignited a high-stakes conflict by accusing Russian lawmakers of plotting his assassination. The dispute, rooted in a controversial merger involving Russia’s largest online retailer, Wildberries, has escalated into Kadyrov threatening a "blood feud," a violent tradition in Chechnya. Alleging that three lawmakers conspired against him, Kadyrov’s accusations involve high-profile figures, including billionaire and Russian senator Suleiman Kerimov. With deadly shootouts and corporate power struggles entangling some of Russia’s wealthiest elites, this feud threatens to intensify tensions in the volatile North Caucasus.

Arab Power: How Violent Gangs Are Fueling Montreal’s Crime Surge

Montreal is currently experiencing a troubling surge in violent crime, with certain criminal groups like “Arab Power,” whose members have migration backgrounds, playing a significant role.

The “Arab Power” gang, which has rapidly expanded its influence over the past two years, is involved in a range of illegal activities, including drug trafficking, extortion, arson, and even murder. Led by Youness Aithaqi and Sylvain Kabbouchi—both of whom operate their network from prison—Arab Power has access to large sums of money from drug and gun trafficking. The recent arson attack in Old Montreal, which tragically claimed the lives of a mother and her 7-year-old daughter, is suspected to be part of a broader extortion campaign targeting local businesses.

France Initiates Bird Flu Vaccination Campaign On Farms

Beginning last week, France quietly began a national avian influenza vaccination campaign to contain a potential outbreak on farms, despite some pushback.

Reuters reported: France has been among the countries worst affected by an unprecedented global spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza, commonly called bird flu, that has disrupted supply of poultry meat and eggs and sent prices rocketing in many parts of the globe in the past years. The ravages caused to its flocks and fear that the virus could mutate into one transmissible to humans prompted the government to launch the nationwide vaccination campaign, making it the first poultry exporting country to do so.

Hurricane Helene swept through hundreds of toxic industrial sites – are all those chemicals now in the drinking water?

Rice University researchers are calling for tighter restrictions on stored pollutants after it was discovered that Hurricane Helene ravaged hundreds of industrial sites in western North Carolina that were teeming with toxins and pollutants.

Helene ripped apart paper mills, fertilizer factories, oil and gas storage facilities, and even a retired nuclear plant while drowning the region in water. That water likely became contaminated with all sorts of chemicals that are probably currently seeping into the ground and into drinking water supplies. While it is normally the case that rain and storm surge flooding from hurricanes results in some environmental contamination, i.e., from overflowing sewer systems, the situation with Helene is unique in the sheer volume of industrial facilities it affected.

Democrat Congresswomen Tell Social Media Platforms to “Quickly and Decisively” Censor Hurricane “Misinformation”

Surgeon General warns that parenting could be “hazardous to your health”

The surgeon general has a new public health warning. And this time, the hazard isn’t tobacco or alcohol: it’s parenting.

Two-fifths of parents say that on most days, “they are so stressed they cannot function,” the Office of the Surgeon General reports in an advisory titled Parents Under Pressure. Roughly half of parents term that stress “completely overwhelming.” Those dire findings anchor a 35-page report, released in late August, that posits parents’ stress as “an urgent public health issue.” It draws on data from the American Psychological Association and other sources to build a case that parents are facing more stress than at perhaps any other time in recent history.
