🔥 $100 million in Palisades disaster relief disappeared into Democratic Party's NGO black holes

Investigative journalist Sue Pascoe of Circling The News dropped a bombshell: $100 million raised during the celebrity-packed FireAid benefit concert may have disappeared. The money was initially intended to support homeless residents of Pacific Palisades after a devastating wildfire destroyed thousands of homes. Instead, Pascoe reports the funds were funneled through a complex web of NGOs - potentially diverted toward unrelated causes. "So I looked at the initially they gave $50 million to about 120 nonprofits. And I looked at these nonprofits and one of them said, we help mobile home parks. And there are two mobile home parks in the Palisades. And so I contacted the people there. They had never received any money. They had never heard of that," Pascoe told Fox 11 Los Angeles during the interview.

Owens said in early 2024 that she would "stake [her] entire professional reputation on the fact that Brigitte Macron is in fact a man". Since then, she has doubled down on these claims and added more, including in an eight-part podcast series called Becoming Brigitte, the lawsuit alleges. The Macrons sought retractions from Owens, the suit says, for the "demonstrably false" claims she has made about them but she instead "mocked them and used them as additional fodder for her frenzied fan base".

🤖 Medieval manuscript found to record 15th-century comedy routine

Written to be performed live, a medieval minstrel's jokes poked fun at the powerful Troubadours, jesters, minstrels, bards: Whatever you choose to call them, these wandering entertainers captivated medieval Europeans for centuries. Medieval bards possessed imaginations so fertile, and wits so sharp, that Westerners still remember them long after their jokes and tall tales have faded from memory. Indeed, as Cambridge University and Girton College historian Dr. James Wade writes in his recent paper, published in The Review of English Studies, most of the words actually used by these troubadours have been forever lost; for instance, no one has found "a single medieval English manuscript with plausible connections to an actual medieval minstrel." Yet if Wade's new paper is correct, there is a collection of newly discovered texts at the National Library of Scotland that may shed some light into this dark corner of the past.

Six years later, that questionable but enduring claim continues to unravel. According to newly declassified documents, U.S. intelligence leaders concealed high-level doubts about one of Russiagate's foundational allegations: that Russia stole and leaked Democratic Party material to help Trump defeat Hillary Clinton. In a September 2016 report that was never made public until now, the NSA and the FBI broke with their intelligence counterparts and expressed "low confidence" in the attribution to Russia.
