FORMER SECRET SERVICE AGENT CLAIMS HE PUT THE JFK MAGIC BULLET ON THE STRETCHER – After the assassination of former President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, investigators claim to have found the bullet that killed Kennedy on the stretcher. That led them to theorize that the bullet must have struck both Kennedy, then Texas Governor John B. Connally in his back, chest, wrist and thigh.
Now, Former Secret Service Agent Paul Landis claims the bullet they found was placed there by him, but he found it embedded in the President’s seat and put it on the stretcher for fear it was going to be lost in the chaos that ensued, where no one seemed to care about securing the evidence of the crime scene. The testimony, if true, would mean that Lee Harvey Oswald could not have been the only shooter.

CULTURE (Mon & Thurs)
DHS GIVES HALF A MILLION DOLLARS TO MILITANT CHILD-TARGETING “LGBTQ” GROUP TO FIGHT TERRORISM – The Department of Homeland Security gave a $530K grant to Sexual Minority Youth Assistance League (SMYAL). The grant is intended to provide “funding for state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, nonprofits… and institutions of higher education with funds to establish or enhance capabilities to prevent targeted violence and terrorism.”
The group is a militant far left group that distributes condoms to kids and espouses Marxist beliefs on its own website, where it states, “… Through youth leadership, SMYAL creates opportunities for LGBTQ youth to build self-confidence, develop critical life skills, and engage their peers and community through service and advocacy. Committed to social change, SMYAL builds, sustains, and advocates for programs, policies, and services that LGBTQ youth need as they grow into adulthood.”
SCHOOL TRANSITIONS TEEN IN SECRET, NOW MOTHER IS SUING – The Appomattox County School District chose to “transition” the daughter of mother Michele Blair without her knowledge and against her will. From Fox News: Sage was eventually rescued from the situation by federal authorities (being abducted after she ran away), but the trauma didn’t end there, according to the allegations. Baltimore public defender Aneesa Khan fought returning the teen to the parent’s custody after a rescue, arguing that the family were not “sufficiently affirming” of Sage’s new gender identity, according to Blair.
This led to her daughter ending up in a juvenile facility for adolescent males “where she was once again sexually assaulted, exposed to drugs, and denied medical and mental health care,” as described in the lawsuit.

AFRICAN CHESS: RUSSO-CHINESE RISE ON THE CORPSE OF NEO-COLONIALISM
By Michael A. Cessna, Military Affairs Correspondent
INTRODUCTION
On July 26th, the Presidential Guard of Niger arrested and detained the country’s President, Mohamed Bazoum, in a palace coup. The Presidential Guard’s move was quickly approved of by the Nigerian military, with General Abdourahmane “Omar” Tchiani being named to head the military junta now ruling the country.
The international response was as swift as it was predictable, with stentorian platitudes about immediately “restoring democratic rule.” However, events swiftly took an equally unexpected turn, which has brought Western Africa to the point of all-out war, not just internally, but with France, and potentially NATO itself.
In brief: Africa is sick of France’s runaway neo-colonialism and is starting to find its legs with a nascent unified front…and Russia is waiting to pick up the pieces.
THE CURRENT SITUATION
As news of the coup spread, Nigerien civilians swept into the streets, in apparent support of the coup. While not unusual in coups, especially in Africa, what made this particular coup immediately different was the number of civilian coup supporters openly waving Russian flags and signs saying “Thank You, Russia!” in French (the country’s official language), accompanied by similar chants, shouts, and “man in the street” interviews.
The response by the wider “world community” was also predictable, with strident calls to release President Bazoum immediately and restore him to power. In doing so, this knee-jerk cheerleading figuratively shot itself in the foot, as it openly demanded restoration of “democratic rule via status quo ante” at all costs, even if the “democratic leadership” in question was openly corrupt.
Whether that is true of Bazoum’s administration is open to question, but there were certainly complaints within the military that Bazoum had a lackadaisical – at best – https://my.bible.com/users/paulcollier/reading-plans/13630-bibleproject-old-testament-in-a-year/subscription/940218825/day/58approach to the ongoing threat of Al Qaeda- and Islamic State-aligned jihadist insurgents threatening the nation.
