FBI Director Kash Patel and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino sat for an interview with Fox News on Sunday and said some things that raised eyebrows, namely that Jeffrey Epstein DID kill himself.

“You know a suicide when you see one and that’s what that was,” said Director Patel.

What did he see that the rest of us cannot? How did he “see one”? The camera footage was not captured because the system reportedly failed only where Epstein was at the time. The guards also failed to check on him as required and later falsified their logs. Epstein’s cellmate was also mysteriously removed prior to his death so there were no witnesses. And there are still inconsistencies with the autopsy which showed fractures in Epstein’s neck which experts say were were more consistent with homicidal strangulation than suicidal hanging. So how can he be so sure out of hand?

Director Patel also said that a new “wave of transparency” is coming soon in “about a week or two” but that pertained to Russiagate and January 6 prosecutions. Will we ever see solid evidence about Epstein’s death?

They were asked why we have so little information on the assassination attempt on President Trump and Director Patel said that there “are two live prosecutions and we can’t get ahead of the federal court cases.”

That’s fair. The government cannot impugn defendants while they are defending themselves but Director Bongino did say there is no “there there.” As in, the conspiracies are not based. Really?

Both men reiterated that they are focused on criminal prosecutions at the FBI under President Trump. “We’re about to ruin your summer if you’re a bad guy.”

So how do you feel about the FBI under this new leadership? Does this put those two stories to bed for you?

President Biden’s has spokesperson announced that the former President has “an aggressive form of prostate cancer” with “metastasis to the bone.”

This is tragic news but it is also highly unusual. President Biden was treated for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia in 2008 which is an enlarged prostate. The public was assured at the time that it was not cancer but we were also assured his treatment would include regular screenings, which would have caught this at a much earlier stage. Did he refuse screenings or is there malpractice at hand because those screenings were not ordered? This should have been detected and treated long ago based on his medical history.

As one cancer physician put it, “prostate cancer is the easiest cancer to diagnose when it first starts and to watch it progress to bone metastases…. It would be malpractice for this patient to show up and be first diagnosed with metastatic disease in May 2025. It is highly likely he was carrying a diagnosis of prostate cancer throughout his White House tenure and the American people were uninformed.”

So… why is this happening? Why wasn’t this caught and treated earlier? Or is this news to us and not news to the Biden family? In which case, these are valid questions: Did they release this news on the heels of Democrats blaming the President for his own failed health? Or perhaps to distract from the recordings from President Biden’s FBI interviews?.

The Food and Drug Administration issued an approval for Novavax’s Covid-19 vaccine. This is the only non-mRNA vaccine.

The vaccine was approved for adults aged 65 and older and individuals aged 12 to 64 with at least one underlying health condition that increases their risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes. But reading the clinical trials prompts serious questions.

The trials included populations that had a single doses and populations that had two doses. The trials showed a reduction in symptomatic Covid 7 days after the second dose. But the FDA didn’t approve two doses. They only approved one. So is one dose even effective at all at preventing Covid? We don’t know, that wasn’t tested.

There is also a noted risk of myocarditis and heart inflammation but it is lower than that of mRNA Covid vaccines by Pfizer and Moderna. There was also at least one vaccine recipient with “a serious event of Guillain Barré syndrome reported 9 days following administration of” the vaccine. The FDA notes that Novavax has to follow up on any further cases if they observe it.

The FDA is also supposed to follow up on how the vaccine does when it is shipped to patients. They don’t know!? They don’t. They must submit a study called “Shipping Evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 rS (JN.1 Vaccine) Drug Product in Pre-Filled Syringe (PFS) Finished Good Presentation” by July of this year. This is not an uncommon practice at the FDA. They approve vaccines not knowing how they will fare once they are shipped to doctor’s offices. They test it on us.

Why would someone chose to take this given that its dosage was not trialed and its effectiveness unknown? Especially given the low prevalence of Covid. Your guess is as good as mine.

Ukrainian President Zelensky gave the new Pope Leo a war souvenir at his inauguration Mass.

“Today, we presented Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex with a special icon – the Holy Mother with the Infant, painted on a fragment of a crate used to store heavy artillery munitions, brought from near Izyum. This icon speaks of our children. Of those who have suffered from the war, who were deliberately abducted and deported by Russia, and who are very much awaited at home – in Ukraine. We pray for the lives of all our deported children and hope for the Vatican’s support in this matter, so that all of them, both the children and Ukrainian prisoners, can return home,” he wrote.

Pope Leo offered to moderate peace discussions for all global conflicts so Zelensky got in line first to speak to the new Catholic leader since the cameras are still very much trained on the amiable new Pope but less interested in Zelensky’s antics lately.

The Pope’s Inauguration Mass was attended by global leaders including Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The Vice President shared this photo of a meeting after church with President Zelensky where he said that the two spoke about the “goal of ending unnecessary bloodshed in Ukraine, and we discussed updates on the ongoing negotiations for a ceasefire and lasting peace.” The Russian military reports that Ukraine is losing up to 1,345 servicemen per day.

It that a forced smile on Zelensky’s face or indication that they got on better this time?

These seem to be ornamental meetings for Zelensky. The people who can actually make this happen will speak on the phone on Monday: that is, President Trump and President Putin. After the call, President Trump says that he’ll speak with President Zelensky and members of NATO. He added: “HOPEFULLY IT WILL BE A PRODUCTIVE DAY, A CEASEFIRE WILL TAKE PLACE, AND THIS VERY VIOLENT WAR, A WAR THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED, WILL END. GOD BLESS US ALL”

OKAY GOOD

Pope Leo XIV has begun tweeting and his first messages are unequivocally antiwar. In fact, he offered to mediate peace between warring nations!

“The Holy See is willing to help enemies meet, so they may look each other in the eye and so people may be given back the dignity they deserve: the dignity of peace. With heart in hand, I say to the leaders of nations: let us meet; let us dialogue; let us negotiate!”

One can only assume that means all leaders are welcome, popular and unpopular.

He also posted about the “the preservation of the Eastern rites,” which was important to Pope Leo XIII, he says.

It does not seem that any one conflict is more important to the Pope than another. In this post he gave permission to feel outraged about it: “There is so much violence and so many wars in our world! Amid this horror that should provoke outrage—as people die in the name of military conquest—stands the call of Christ, who repeats: ‘Peace be with you!’”

It is not unusual for Popes to play diplomatic peacemaking roles but it is interesting that this Pope wasted no time doing so.

European Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen got a slap on the hand for her backdoor vaccine deals with Pfizer from a European court.

The New York Times reported how von der Leyen secured Pfizer Covid vaccines for the whole of Europe with texts messages with Pfizer’s CEO Albert Bourla. The Times requested those texts and the European Commission rejected that request, saying that they didn’t have them. The Times says that they do have them and the court agrees, ruling they must hand them over.

The court also ruled that the EU “has not given a plausible explanation to justify the non-possession of the requested documents. Moreover, the Commission has not sufficiently clarified whether the requested text messages were deleted and, if so, whether the deletion was done deliberately or automatically or whether the President’s mobile phone had been replaced in the meantime.”

In other words: They were being shady.

This is the second time von der Leyen was caught deleting things from her phone. When she was Germany’s Defense Minister, she was investigated for military contracts and when officials searched her phones, they’d been wiped.

The European Commission has responded to this ruling saying that they’re sorry and the court is right, they should be more transparent. They have not committed to handing over the messages though.
