The brother of a U.S. Marine who died during last year’s military withdrawal from Afghanistan reportedly committed suicide during his sibling’s recent memorial service. Dakota Halverson, 28, died on August 9. He was the older brother of Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui, 20, from Norco, California, who was one of the 13 military members killed by a suicide bomber outside the Kabul airport on August 26, 2021. “The older brother of one of the 13 KIA in Kabul recently killed himself at his little brother’s memorial,” Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) tweeted on Saturday. “Please pray for his family. There MUST be accountability for this continued carnage,” he added. The congressman also promoted a GoFundMe fundraiser set up to cover funeral expenses for Halverson. “Dakota Halverson was a loving son, brother and friend.

Former President Donald Trump allegedly sent a private message to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland before a Department of Justice press conference Thursday afternoon, appearing to ask what he could do to help bring down the political tensions that were brought to a boiling point last week following the FBI’s raid on Trump’s home in Florida. Shortly before the press conference, a person close to the former president reached out to an official at the Justice Department to deliver a message to Garland. The New York Times reported that the message Trump wanted to be passed to Garland was: “The country is on fire. What can I do to reduce the heat?” During the press conference, Garland, who was 35 minutes late, only spoke for a few minutes and answered no questions from reporters. “First, I personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant in this matter,” Garland admitted during the press conference. “Second, the Department does not take such a decision lightly. … [Read more...] about Trump’s Private Message To Merrick Garland Before DOJ Press Conference Is Revealed: Report | The Daily Wire

Bill Maher, host of HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher,” said late last week that the FBI’s raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home might have saved him from losing in a Republican presidential primary against Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL). Maher’s comments come after the raid on Trump’s Florida residence dominated news headlines all week as U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland admitted that he authorized the warrant for investigators to search the property for classified material that was supposed to be stored at the National Archives. FBI agents removed numerous boxes of documents, including at least 11 sets of classified information and documents marked “top secret.” Calling Trump “the luckiest man in the world,” Maher said, “His fortune was finally falling.” “The Big Lie was finally losing momentum,” Maher continued. “DeSantis was beating him in the polls — you know who hates this more than anybody? DeSantis.” “‘I had this in the bag, and now I gotta run … [Read more...] about Bill Maher: FBI Raid Might Have Saved ‘Martyr’ Trump From Losing To DeSantis In GOP Primary | The Daily Wire

The investigation into former President Donald Trump that led to federal authorities raiding his Florida home at Mar-a-Lago last week centers around several potential criminal violations. Multiple sources told The New York Times that at least one of Trump’s lawyers signed a written statement to the U.S. Department of Justice earlier this summer that claimed all classified material and boxes in a storage area on the property had been returned to the federal government. Agents searched the storage area and Trump’s office and residence on the property. Federal investigators recovered at least five sets of top secret documents, three sets of secret documents, and three sets of confidential documents during their search, which U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland authorized. The signed declaration, combined with the at least 11 sets of classified documents that were discovered on the property, could mean that either Trump or his legal team potentially lied to federal investigators. … [Read more...] about Trump Probe Centers Around Several Potential Crimes; Could Be In Trouble Even If He Declassified Docs | The Daily Wire

American citizens were injured among the eight people hurt in a reported Palestinian shooting near Jerusalem’s Western Wall on Sunday, according to Israeli police. The alleged shooter, identified as Amir Sidawi, turned himself in after initially fleeing the scene and being pursued in a large-scale manhunt. “A very serious incident, a serious attack with serious consequences. I am happy that the terrorist is in our hands,” Commissioner of the National Police Yaakov Shabtai said regarding the attack (English translation). Jerusalem District Commander Superintendent Doron Turgeman noted that the massive search likely led to the alleged shooter’s surrender. “In the end, the hunt and a very strenuous investment by the police and Shin Bet. We created significant pressure–which probably led to his extradition,” Turgeman added in a statement to reporters. The identities of those injured have not yet been released. U.S. Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides confirmed in a statement on … [Read more...] about Americans Among 8 Injured In Jerusalem Shooting | The Daily Wire

By the time you read this, I’ll be a few days into a two-week regime otherwise known as my detox “holiday”. I’ll be sporting a unitard for the very first time since the age of three (a quick Google will provide all the visual info you require). Between sipping poo-hued juices, you will find me in the downward dog position wearing said unitard and imagining myself as the redheaded version of Gwyneth Paltrow, except with boobs, bum, curves and bigger hair. I’m excited to wear the unitard, not so thrilled about the yoga, given I’m as stiff as a gecko that’s been struck dead by lightning. All the gear and no idea. Let’s hope the doctors can stretcher me back to my room. I’m not a serial retreat-goer: the fitness retreat I attended in May was only four days long, so hardly enough time to get my head straight (which, apart from the wine and hormone-induced jelly belly, was half the reason I went). Before that, the last time I went away alone to eat lettuce and exercise vigorously on zero … [Read more...] about The right way to do a solo trip if you’re a single midlifer like me
