BREAKING: TRUCK CARRYING AGGRESSIVE MONKEYS WITH HEPATITIS C, HERPES AND COVID FLIPPED OVER

A truck carrying research monkeys overturned in Jasper County, Mississippi, and one large, aggressive rhesus monkey remains on the loose. According to the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office the animal can weigh around 40 lbs and may have been exposed to hepatitis C, herpes and COVID. The other monkeys have been terminated.

If you are in the area, please do not attempt to engage the animal. If spotted, call 911 immediately and provide a clear description of its location and behavior. Deputies have already taken action to secure the scene, but the risk remains.

‘CICERO OR SICARIO’ YES, THIS IS A REAL IMAGE, POSTED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

The DHS just dropped a press release that hits like a gritty Netflix doc trailer, not a government memo. Titled "Cicero or Sicario: A Day of Crashes," it’s a calculated, dramatic editorial that screams "we’re under attack"

Not just reporting, but rallying the troops. The entire piece details one day, October 22nd, where federal agents in Cicero, Illinois, faced what they call an alarming surge of "domestic terrorism." Forget passive resistance. This report details citizens allegedly ramming USBP vehicles, a documented Latin Kings gang member attempting a head-on collision, and a woman threatening a "hit" on a Chief.

DHS is weaponizing this narrative to justify aggressive enforcement under Operation Midway Blitz. The message is clear and pure adrenaline: "You will not stop us or slow us down."

This isn't just news; it's a political statement against those they label "agitators" and "sanctuary politicians," turning local enforcement into a high-stakes urban confrontation. They want you to see Border Patrol not just as agents, but as heroes in a war zone.

The question is, how do YOU see them?

📰 TEEN CHARGED WITH MURDER, ATTEMPTED MURDER AT CHIC-FIL-A

Police in Oswego have charged 19-year-old Darryl Lee Jr. of Kankakee with first-degree murder and several related crimes after a brutal knife and hammer attack early Wednesday inside a Chick-fil-A restaurant. Investigators say Lee broke in through a back door around 3:10 a.m. and ambushed delivery driver Tracey J. Land, 52, of Bridgeview, as he made a routine drop-off. Land suffered multiple traumatic injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities believe Lee lingered inside the restaurant afterward, attempting to clean up the crime scene before striking again nearly two hours later. Around 4:56 a.m., police say he attacked a 20-year-old maintenance worker from behind as the worker and his mother performed morning duties outside. Despite being stabbed, the young man and his mother managed to subdue Lee until officers arrived. The victim remains hospitalized in stable condition as the investigation continues.
