‘What’s going on with Trump’s legs?’

A recent video of President Donald Trump showing him having a hard time getting out of his golf cart made many question, “What’s wrong with Trump’s legs?”

The video in question was taken at Mar-A-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, during a golf session. It was shared by Aleman’s Brothers LLC, a grounds-keeping company that appears to service Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, as per the Daily Mail.

“Trump moves his right leg like a piece of wood,” an X user posted. “Any geriatricians around?” asked another.

“What’s wrong with Trump’s legs? He’s moving knock kneed and swinging his right leg like it’s dead weight?!” a third commented.

One user wrote, ”What’s up with his right leg + foot? Looks all wobbly + pigeon-toed.”

The video triggered numerous speculations and rumors about the president’s heath, with some suggesting he could be suffering from “weak knees,” and others even pointing out to a “neuromuscular degenerative issue.”

There were also those who said Trump’s legs and his movement feel “weird” because of his age.

White House Communications Director Steven Cheung responded to the speculations, dismissing them as not true. “Deranged and morally bankrupt liberals — including corrupt media — have now resorted to complete falsehoods and fabricated lies because they have no shame.

“Instead, they spend every waking hour of their pathetic lives suffering from a debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted their brain,” he said, as quoted by the Daily Mail.

This isn’t the first time people have pointed out Trump dragging his right leg.

In March of last year, MAGA critic and editor-in-chief of left-wing MeidasTouch Network Ron Filipkowski posted, “Something is definitely going on with his right leg. He’s been dragging it for months.”

The video in question emerged a week after people spotted bruises on Trump’s hands during his meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron.

Social media users believed that the bruises were due to IV infusions, thin skin, or the president’s old age. They were obviously covered with skin-colored makeup but still visible.

Trump on the other hand has bragged about his health in the past, claiming he’s been the healthiest president to ever run the country.

Goldie Hawn reveals a heartbreaking health condition at the Oscars

The 97th Annual Academy Awards gathered the most prominent Hollywood figures together for yet another memorable night.

Actress Halle Berry had her “revenge” kiss on Oscar-winner Adrien Brody on the red carpet, which saw the crowd, including Brodie’s girlfriend Georgina, clapping and laughing. The opening ceremony saw Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande shine in their full glory. Zoe Saldaña gave an emotional speech, and Conan O’Brien had his Oscar hosting debut.

The film Anora won five Oscars and owned the night, but it was the heartbreaking revelation by Goldie Hawn about a health condition that had everyone talking.

The actress was on stage alongside Andrew Garfield presenting the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film.

However, at one point, she stopped her speech, which she read from the teleprompter, and turned to Garfield with the words, “OK. Sweetheart, can you read that? I can’t read that.”

She then revealed, “I’m completely blind. I mean, I am,” explaining that she suffers from cataracts.

It is a condition that happens when the lens, a small transparent disc inside your eye, develops cloudy patches, according to NHS.

Over time these patches usually become bigger causing blurry, misty vision and eventually blindness.

They are most common at elderly people but can affect anyone.

Garfield showed just how big of a gentleman he is telling Hawn, “OK, I’ve got you,” before revealing the winner.

The response to the revelation about her health condition concerned the fans of Goldie Hawn.

A source close to the actress said she regretted sharing her condition because she didn’t mean that news to become a talking point.

“Goldie is embarrassed that the focus of her Oscar night was her vision issues, it is not something she wanted everyone talking about,” the source said, as per the Daily Mail. “She was just trying to be funny.”

8 powerful anti-cancer foods you should start including in your diet

When it comes to our overall well-being, the food we consume plays a key role. Through our diet, we provide our body with the essential nutrients, vitamins, fibre, and energy to get through the day.

The Standard American Diet (SAD), is “believed to contribute to the health challenges experienced in the United States, including cancer.”

According to the American Institute for Cancer Research, only about 8% of the standard American diet consists of protective foods.

The truth is that no food by itself can help in the fight against cancer, but there are several foods that are believed to help preventing it.

“Research tells us that making healthy food choices consistently over time can reduce your risk of getting cancer, but you can’t say with absolute certainty that food can prevent cancer,” says wellness dietitian Lindsey Wohlford. “There are no guarantees.”

1. Cruciferous Vegetables

Shutterstock

Cruciferous vegetables are a diverse group of vegetables belonging to the family Brassicaceae, also called ‘Cruciferae,’ that are believed to have cancer-preventive properties. Vegetables belonging to this group are radish, arugula, bok choy, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, daikon, and turnips, among the rest.

These are rich in isothiocyanates, compounds that reduce inflammation and deactivate cancer-causing chemicals.

Consuming these vegetables helps lowering the risks of developing certain types of cancer, including breast, esophageal, oral, and kidney cancers.

2. Turmeric

Turmeric is yet another plant that is so versatile that it’s found its way not only in the cuisines of many countries, but also in the cosmetic industry, the pharmaceutical industry, and more.

Among the rest, turmeric contains protective compounds, including curcumin, has anti-oxidant properties that may help the body combat inflammation, can help ease arthritis, can help limit the growth of cancerous cells, protects cells from damage, and reduces the signs of ageing.

3. Mushrooms

A study conducted on 36 thousand participants over several decades showed that incorporating mushrooms in the diet helps reduce the risk of developing prostate cancer. Mushrooms are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, in particular L-ergothioneine, thought to help reduce oxidative stress.

Another study suggest mushrooms may help prevent breast cancer, likely due to compounds like glutathione, ergothioneine, and polysaccharides. Medicinal varieties like reishi, turkey tail, shiitake, and maitake boost antitumor immunity, with turkey tail’s PK polysaccharide aiding cancer therapy.

4. Allium Vegetables

Onions, shallots, leeks, and garlic are anti-cancer foods said to prevent certain cancers such as colon cancer and other cancers related to the gut.

According to a research, onion and garlic possess “promising biological activities that are indicative of their potential as potent antioxidant and anticancer agents.”

5. Wakame

Shutterstock

Wakame is an edible type of seaweed that is believed to suppress the growth of breast cancer, colon cancer, and kidney cancer cells. The research showing these results has been performed in a lab using animals, so its properties on humans are yet to be researched.

Also, wakame contains around 42mcg of iodine per serving.

6. Lycopene-Rich Foods

Shutterstock

Lycopene is a phytochemical, or a biologically active chemical found in plants. Since it’s not produced within the body, it’s not considered neither a vitamin nor mineral.

According to Hope Barkoukis, Ph.D., chair of the department of nutrition at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland, OH, lycopene is a potent antioxidant. “This means it can reduce the presence of harmful compounds in your body called free radicals.”

Diet rich in foods that contain lycopene, such as tomatoes and watermelons, may help reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, and other chronic diseases.

7. Beta Carotene-Rich Foods

Shutterstock

Beta-carotene rich foods include carrots, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, and other yellow-orange fruits and vegetables.

Their consumption on preventing cancer is yet to be researched further.

8. Fatty Fish

Research indicates that other anti-cancer foods include fatty fish like albacore tuna, salmon, herring, mussels, anchovies, and sardines. If consumed weekly, they may help lower cancer risk. This is likely due to their high vitamin D and Omega-3 fatty acids, thought to help prevent disease, including cancer.

Elon Musk issues 5-word response to Mike Myers’ brutal SNL portrayal of him in a Trump-Zelenskyy sketch

In a parody of the widely debated meeting between Donald Trump and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Mike Myers portrayed the tech-billionaire Elon Musk.

The skit poked fun of Musk on Saturday Night Live, and the Tesla founder made sure Myers knew he didn’t found the comedy fun.

Namely, Myers, dressed as Musk in black jeans, a blazer, and a graphic t-shirt, interrupted the meeting between Trump, portrayed by James Austin Johnson, and Zelensky, played by Mikey Day.

“Donald, what are you doing in my office?” Myers’ Musk asked Trump, “You know I’m the president now, right?” then added: “I’m kidding, I’m kidding… Maybe not.”

NBC

Myers imitated Musk’s bouncing from a last years’ Trump’s rally, jumping up and down.

“They’re saying I’m firing people with no cause. But I do have cause, it’s ’cause’ I feel like it,” Myers’ Musk joked.

Mayer’s further mocked Musk’s role as a head of the Department of Government Efficiency, the government lay-offs, and the number of plane crashes.

“We’re not going to get it perfect, you know. But we are firing the non-essential employees like air traffic controllers.

“And sure, some of the planes are going to land upside down. But then the luggage falls right into your lap and you’re ready to go.”

Myers even held a chainsaw, playing on Musk’s time at the Conservative Political Action Conference when Argentina’s President Javier Milei gave him a gold-plated one.

Vance, portrayed by Yang, berated the Ukrainian leader, asking him, “What happened to thank you? You haven’t said thank you to us once in the past 15 seconds.”

He then continued, “You think you’re getting any money from us after your little outburst today?” before adding, “You get nothing. You lose. Good day, sir.”

Trump then said dismissively to Zelensky, “Who shows up to the White House in a T-shirt and jeans like a garbage person?”

While many found the skit fun, except for the MAGA supporters, it turned out Elon Musk wasn’t fond of his portrayal by Mike Myers…at all!

Replying to a comment about it on X, the SpaceX owner wrote, “Humor fails when it lies.”

Netizens were quick to react to Musk’s comment.

“Fails? They pretty much nailed you. Now it’s even funnier when I know it hurt your feelings,” someone commented.

Another said, “Mike Myers was very funny in this skit [in my opinion],” while a third noted, “You were all ‘legalize comedy’ just a few days ago. I guess you’ve changed your mind? Because most people thought Mike Myers was spot on & hilarious.”

My 5-year-old brought an entire restaurant to tears with one simple act

My 5-year-old son enjoyed visiting the Waffle House, but that day was like no other.

As we were seated at the place, waiting for our food to arrive, my boy Josiah spotted a man with worn-out clothes sitting outside.

Curious, he asked me what the man was doing on the street, to what I replied that he could be a homeless person.

Josiah, being just five, was interested to learn what that meant.

“He doesn’t have a home,” I said, adding that he probably doesn’t have anything to eat either.

Josiah was confused, and without hesitation, he got outside and told the man that he could eat with us.

The man seemed confused, and the entire restaurant was looking at Josiah, waiting to see what was going to happen. It was then that I told the man that he could have dinner with us.

He entered and Josiah ordered the biggest burger for him.

But, before the man took a bite, Josiah said, “Wait, we need to pray first.” And there, in the middle of the Waffle house, my 5-year-old son bowed his head and said a blessing.

At that moment, one by one, the rest of the diners started paying for meals and leaving money on the counter. The truck driver sitting opposite us told the waitress, “Make sure he has enough for breakfast tomorrow.” An elderly lady placed $20 on the counter and said, “For anyone else who might need it.”

The waitress was stunned. She said that in the 12 years working at the diner she had never witnessed anything similar.

Then and there, I felt like the proudest mother there was.

The ripple effect Josiah’s act triggered was nothing short of amazing.

Josiah, happy he made a new friend, took a bite out of the man’s hamburger and sked him if he like it. “The best burger I’ve ever had,” the man said, doing his best not to let tears run down his face.

Before we left, Josiah gave the man his favorite sweater. “You can have it,” he said, “In case you get cold on the streets.”

As we headed home, my 5-year-old asked me if he had done a good thing.

“You did a wonderful thing, sweetheart,” I said as I gave him a kiss on the forehead.

Justin Bieber breaks silence and explains truth amid fans’ concerns about his health

Fans of the Canadian-born singer Justin Bieber sparked concerns over his health after photos of him emerged on the social media, showing him looking hollow-eyed and dishevelled.

The musician was photographed at a pop-up event for his wife Hailey Bieber’s Rhode cosmetic line in LA.

Fans were quick to comment on the looks of the singer, who recently became a father.

“He still has some healing to do this is sad,” a person commented. “I can’t understand people who are laughing at this, truly, I just feel bad for both of them, no one deserves this,” another added.

“This is so hard to watch. Someone help him,” a third wrote.

XNY/Star Max/GC Images

A representative of the singer told TMZ that Bieber is “simply in one of the best places in his life” denying any rumors that he’s using drugs. They added that the singer’s past year has been “very transformative for him as he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him.”

Further, they said the star is drained by the rumors surrounding his mental health as he is focused on “actively parenting his newborn son” Jack Blues, prioritizing his marriage, parenthood, and creating art.

Justin Bieber had his fans worried before when he unfollowed his wife and his father-in-law on social media back in January.

He then claimed that his marriage wasn’t breaking down, sharing photos of Hailey.

GC Images

Later, Bieber said someone entered his account and unfollowed Hailey. “S**t is getting suss out here,” he wrote.

Sources close to Bieber told TMZ that his looks is due to long nights of recording at the studio and “caring for his son who was having trouble falling asleep as well.”

In an episode of the docuseries Justin Bieber: Sessions, the star revealed he had started smoking marijuana aged 12 or 13.

He then turned to heavier drugs but eventually decided to quit after he thought he was going to die.

New leading infectious disease: COVID-19 no longer top of the list

COVID-19 has been on top of the list of infectious diseases for a number of years. This is expected as the pandemic, which was global and didn’t spare any country, claimed the lives of a number of people and affected the everyday life of millions.

Recently, however, the World Health Organization stated that tuberculosis (TB) has retaken its position as the leading infectious disease, surpassing COVID-19, as per The Hearty Soul.

WHO reported that in 2023, the number of people diagnoses with TB was approximately 8.2 million. This is the highest since 1995 when the organization started the monitoring process of the infectious disease.

Shutterstock

“The fact that TB still kills and sickens so many people is an outrage, when we have the tools to prevent it, detect it and treat it,” said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director-General. “WHO urges all countries to make good on the concrete commitments they have made to expand the use of those tools, and to end TB.”

Tuberculosis is an infection that usually affects the lungs.

However, it also can affect other parts of the body such as the kidneys, the spine, or the brain.

Most people who have TB infection will never develop TB disease.

The treatment of this infectious disease involves the use of antibiotics, and if left untreated, it can be very serious. There is also a vaccine, called the BCG vaccine, recommended for people who are at higher risk of catching TB or getting seriously ill from it. In certain countries, the babies are vaccinated with it right after birth.

TB spreads through the air, when a person who is infected sneezes, coughs, or talks.

Shutterstock

This infectious disease primarily affects people from low and middle-income countries, with limited access to healthcare.

56% of those affected are from India, Indonesia, China, the Philippines, and Pakistan.

NHS lists the most common symptoms of TB, which include: persistent cough that lasts more than three weeks, mostly accompanied with mucus and bloody mucus, high temperature and night sweats, loss of appetite, weight loss, and feeling tired or exhausted.

Reason Why Harrison Ford Isn’t Presenting at the Oscars After Last-Minute Dropout

You might be surprised to hear Harrison Ford not attending Oscars this year, despite being scheduled to appear onstage to present an award at the 97th ceremony. Known for his iconic roles like Indiana Jones and Rick Deckard, Ford was initially expected to walk the red carpet — almost four decades after scoring a Best Actor nomination for Witness. So, why did he bail at the last minute?

A Surprising Change of Plans

Until quite recently, Ford was on the official list of presenters, set to join names like Gal Gadot, Andrew Garfield, and Samuel L. Jackson. But the 82-year-old actor’s publicist confirmed he’s dealing with shingles, a painful viral infection known for causing an itchy or burning rash. While it often appears on the chest or back, any outbreak is enough to put a serious dent in anyone’s schedule — even a Hollywood legend’s.

Shingles: An Unwanted Guest

Shingles can cause fatigue, headaches, and a general sense of feeling unwell, which is the last thing you want before hitting a red carpet event. The NHS notes that the condition results from a reactivation of the chickenpox virus, and it’s definitely not something you’d want to try to power through. Ford’s doctors likely advised him to stay home and rest. In short, Harrison Ford not attending Oscars is all about recovering properly from a condition that can take people out of commission for weeks.

Who’s Taking His Place?

Since Ford had to back out, Mark Hamill — another Star Wars icon — has stepped up to fill the presenting role. While fans are excited to see Hamill onstage, they also can’t help but miss Harrison’s presence. It’s been a big year for him with appearances at the SAG Awards (where he went viral just by casually snacking behind co-star Jessica Williams), so Harrison Ford not attending Oscars feels like a major letdown for his admirers.

Oscars Snubs and Surprises

Speaking of letdowns, this year’s Oscars are bound to spark fresh debates about snubs and upsets. From Citizen Kane to E.T. to The Shawshank Redemption, history’s shown us that the Academy’s picks don’t always match public opinion. That said, the stage is set for another memorable broadcast — and if all goes well, maybe next year we’ll see Ford back where he belongs, adding his signature blend of cool and charm to Hollywood’s big night. For now, though, health comes first.

Elon Musk’s ex-wife, Justine Musk, speaks of her ex

Justine Musk, with whom the man behind Pay Pal, Tesla, and Space X has five children with, opened up about their failed marriage and revealed details of their relationship.

Namely, the couple first met during her first year at Queen’s University in Ontario, Canada. Following her graduation, Justine Musk taught in Japan for a year, but she and Musk never lost touch.

An essay Justine penned back in 2010 has resurfaced recently.

In it, she wrote how her relationship with the tech-billionaire became messy and turned into one in which she couldn’t recognize herself any longer.

BBC/The Elon Musk Show/CNN

Titled I Was a Starter Wife, the writing exposes the “red flags” Justine noticed on the night they tied the knot.

“As we danced at our wedding reception, Elon told me, ‘I am the alpha in this relationship,’” Justine wrote. “I shrugged it off, just as I would later shrug off signing the postnuptial agreement, but as time went on, I learned that he was serious. He had grown up in the male-dominated culture of South Africa, and the will to compete and dominate that made him so successful in business did not magically shut off when he came home.

“This, and the vast economic imbalance between us, meant that in the months following our wedding, a certain dynamic began to take hold. Elon’s judgment overruled mine, and he was constantly remarking on the ways he found me lacking. ‘I am your wife,’ I told him repeatedly, ‘not your employee.’

“‘If you were my employee,’ he said just as often, ‘I would fire you.’”

BBC/The Elon Musk Show/CNN

Justine recalled that while they were seeing a marriage therapist, she was informed, not by her husband, but by the therapist, that Musk filed for divorce.

“The next day, I went into my therapist’s office and he had left a message for her to tell me that he was filing for divorce.

“That was how I found out,” she explained.

Besides this, Justin Musk has always praised her now ex-husband’s work ethics.

Twitter/Justine Musk

Speaking at a TEDx talk in 2014, Justine shared some of the aspects of Musk that she observed during the time they were together.

Emphasizing the past tense, she said, “I was married, I was married to a man who became extremely successful. And as I watched him rise, I noticed two things. He worked very hard, much harder than your average bear. And he said no a lot.”

According to her, Musk’s ability to say “No” has been crucial to his success.

“He said no to people who wanted his time, attention and energy. He said no in a way that protected his resources so that he could channel them toward his own goals. And I realized that behind every no is a deeper ‘yes’ to whatever it is that you do want,” she said.

TEDx

This perception shaped Justine’s view of boundaries, priorities, and self-worth. “Your deep yes is your right to dream,” she added.

In 2017, again during a TEDx talk, Justine once again spoke of her ex, saying he was bullied as a child.

“When he was a kid, he hated going to school because the other kids liked to follow him home and they would throw soda cans at his head,” she said. As a way to escape, he turned to video games and learned coding. This led to his first company that he sold in his mid 20s. “Nobody’s throwing soda cans at him now,” Justine added.

President Trump’s Immigration Crackdown: How Far Will It Go?

Trump’s immigration orders worry immigrants”—that’s the sentiment you’ll hear when discussing this latest wave of directives from the White House. In a move that’s prompted both applause and alarm, President Donald Trump has issued several orders giving more federal agencies the power to arrest and deport undocumented immigrants, broadening the scope far beyond what Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) could do alone.

Big Changes for Immigration Enforcement

Among these new instructions, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), and the U.S. Marshals Service are now authorized to enforce immigration laws as well—similar to ICE and the FBI. The rationale is to reduce ICE’s heavy caseload while ramping up immigration arrests across the United States. In fact, ICE has been tasked with detaining between 1,200 and 1,500 people daily. However, as Trump’s immigration orders worry immigrants, critics question whether resources exist to support such a massive operation.

Complex Reactions on the Ground

For many in immigrant communities, fear of sudden raids and the possibility of family separation has stirred panic. Even small rumors of enforcement activity can lead to people staying home from work, sending kids to school late, or skipping doctor’s appointments. One farmworker in Kern County recounted how she took a day off after a Border Patrol operation—before Trump took office—appeared to target laborers. But with bills to pay and children to feed, she returned to work despite the fear. These everyday hardships show Trump’s immigration orders worry immigrants in practical ways, affecting their routines and mental well-being.

Targeting Birthright Citizenship and More

In one of his first-day executive orders, Trump tried to halt birthright citizenship—a practice upheld by courts since 1898. That order was swiftly blocked by federal judges, but it underscores the administration’s willingness to push legal boundaries. Another directive broadens “expedited removal,” allowing certain noncitizens to be deported without a court hearing if they’re arrested within two years of entering the country, anywhere in the U.S. Meanwhile, a newly signed measure called the Laken Riley Act demands ICE detain and deport immigrants charged (not just convicted) with certain crimes. While these moves reflect the president’s vow to crack down on illegal immigration, the continuous expansion means Trump’s immigration orders worry immigrants as they brace for far-reaching changes.

How California Responds

California, a state known for its sanctuary policies, is bracing for conflict with the federal government. Governor Gavin Newsom has scaled back direct criticism of the president in hopes of securing wildfire aid, but the legislature has poured funds into legal and state protections for immigrant residents. State Attorney General Rob Bonta also encourages people to learn their rights and ensures local authorities aren’t forced to cooperate with immigration agents. The tension hearkens back to the legal showdowns from Trump’s earlier presidency, suggesting that while the federal push is strong, states still wield considerable power in shaping local enforcement. No matter how it plays out, Trump’s immigration orders worry immigrants and their advocates, leaving many communities uncertain about what tomorrow might bring.

At least 37 people dead, and many injured in a devastating head-on crash between two buses

At least 37 people lost their lives and many more were injured in a horrific crash between two buses.

The vehicles crashed on the route between the cities of Uyuni and Colchani in the western Potosi region of Bolivia, Reuters reported.

The incident happened in the early morning hours of Saturday, the Departmental Police Command of Potosi said in a statement.

“As a result of this fatal accident we have 39 people injured in four hospitals in the town of Uyuni, and 37 people have lost their lives,” a spokesperson of the police department states.

YouTube/ WION

The injured people were transported to a hospital in Uyuni where they were provided with medical assistance.

As of those who tragically lost their lives, the police is still trying to identify their bodies.

The report by the Departmental Police Command of Potosi stated that the crash happened after one of the buses swerved into the oncoming lane, likely due to speeding.

At the scene, a crane had to be used to turn over one of the buses which had rolled over onto its side in order to be able to pull out the bodies.

This incident comes after one person died and three others were left injured after a bus and car collided on a residential street in north west London. 

When paramedics arrived at Whitmore Road in Harrow, they found a person fighting for their life, but sadly, nothing could be done.

The crash happened around 9pm on Monday.

“We were called at 9.17pm on 24 February to reports of a road traffic collision near Whitmore Road,” London Ambulance Service said.

“We sent multiple resources to the scene, including ambulance crews, a paramedic in fast response car, an incident response officer, members of our hazardous area response team (HART) as well as command support vehicles. 

“We treated four patients at the scene before taking two patients to a major trauma centre and discharging one patient at the scene.  

“Very sadly, despite best efforts of our crews, one person was pronounced dead at the scene.”

BREAKING: Legends Bruce Springsteen and Robert De Niro reveal plans to relocate to Canada amid unrest in the United States

In light of the election results, which saw Donald Trump taking office for the second time, a number of celebrities spoke of their plans to move to different countries and leave America behind.

Unsatisfied with the current politics, celebrities like Ellen DeGeneres, Sophie Turner, and Minnie Driver have already swapped their U.S. homes for residences abroad.

Most recently, musician Bruce Springsteen and actor Robert De Niro allegedly voiced their concerns about the political climate in the country yet again, and spoke of their plans of moving to Canada.

According to certain publications, Springsteen believes that the northern neighbor of the USA offers more inclusive environment, unlike the States.

De Niro, who’s an outspoken critic of the US politics, expressed concerns over the weakening of democratic values and the rise of misinformation.

While Canada has always been a popular destination with Americans who seek some sort of change, the public’s opinion regarding the decisions of Springsteen and De Niro is divided.

Shutterstock

There are those who support them and agree with their stance about the current situation of the country, mainly regarding politics, but there are also those who are not happy with their alleged departure.

Whether the two legendary stars move places is yet to be witnessed as certain media outlets regarded the news of their decisions to move as fake.

Most recently, while promoting Zero Day, his newest Netflix project in which he stars as ex-president George Mullen, De Niro was asked by host Stephen Colbert about his heroes.

While the Oscar-winning actor named late actor Marlon Brando and South African leader Nelson Mandela, he was asked about his American heroes. He said it was the police officers who defended the U.S. Capitol from the mob of violent Trump supporters on Jan. 6, 2021.

“I think of the Capitol Police, the guys at Capitol Police. The Metropolitan Police,” De Niro said, as per the HuffPost. “Michael Fanone, Aquilino Gonell, Harry Dunn, Daniel Hodges and everybody else who was involved and affected and hurt by that.”

The flowers you love the most uncover hidden aspects of your personality

Flowers make this world a more beautiful place. We are blessed they are all around us, making our days with their vibrant colors and sweet fragrances. But did you know that the flowers we love can say a lot about our personality? Also, they have held symbolic meanings across cultures for centuries.

Flowers’ colors, delicate petals, form, and smell can serve as mirrors to our inner selves, how we express our emotions, and how deep we love.

So, what does your favorite flower say about you?

1 Daisy

Daisies, one of the cutest little flowers there are, represent a cheerful personality. Those who love daisies the most are believed to be innocent, pure-hearted, and appreciate the simple things in life. Also, these people tend to be optimistic and radiant, spreading joy around them. They are friendly, approachable, and love life. However, by showing their cheerful side to those around them, they may be hiding certain insecurities and their deepest emotions.

2 Rose

The lovers of roses are hopeless romantics who love deeply and aren’t afraid to share their emotions. But, just like the roses, these people have thorns and it takes a lot of time for them to stop being prickling if they get hurt.

At times, these individuals tend to show jealousy and over-possessivness.

3 Daffodil

In the poetry of Persia, poets used the daffodil to connote someone with beautiful eyes. People who love daffodils love to be in charge but also around friends. Further, they are optimistic, strive to attract faithful partners or companions, creative, but also nostalgic.

4 Gerbera

Just as the gerbera flowers, which come in plenty of colors, the people who consider them their favorite flowers are cheerful, and have fun-loving in nature. Also, they love expressing themselves through lively colors.

These people are nurturing and appreciate nature.

5 Marigold

Marigold lovers possess many positive traits. Among the rest, they are considered grounded, practical, appreciative of tradition, spiritual, artistic, and creative.

6 Lily

Ancient Greeks believed that the lily was sprouted by goddess Hera herself. These people take love and romantic relationships very seriously, and are able to sustain long-term relationships. They are empathetic, warm, and wise. However, due to their innocence, others sometimes take advantage of them.

7 Dahlia

Dahlia lovers are considered to be elegant and refined, just as the dahlias, which are connected to sophistication. Whats’ most, they find beauty in the small things in life and are patient, detail-oriented, have a strong zest for life, and appreciate the beauty of individuality and uniqueness.

8 Violet

Violet is a flower that is oftentimes under-appreciated, so those who love it can sometimes be overlooked because of their silence and reserved nature. These people are often simple and straightforward, prefer the countryside, and love nature.

A new photo of the President Donald Trump from the White House has attracted the attention of social media users who were quick to spot even the tiniest details.

The photo in questions shows the Head of State posing in front of five portraits of former presidents holding a model plane.

Eagle-eyed members of the online community zoomed-in the photo and noticed a detail some of them described as rather “strange” and even “creepy” and “disturbing.”

In the left-hand side of the photo, just behind Trump’s right shoulder, Elon Musk’s reflection could be seen on the ornate gold-framed mirror.

Comments started pouring in with one person writing, “This is easily one of the funniest pictures I’ve ever seen.”

Another added: “Creepy AF!!!” while third echoed, “That is so creepy.”

People started wondering why the tech billionaire, who is now the head of the Department of Government Efficiency – DOGE, is literally everywhere and always around the president.

“Trump blink twice if he has your family hostage!” a person commented.

The photo was posted shortly after Trump and Musk’s interview with Sean Hannity, during which they highlighted the support for one another.

The public and the media have been vocal over the Tesla and Space X owner’s influence on President Trump, even calling the billionaire “President Musk.”

Musk dismissed the claims, saying “I love the president, I just want to be clear about that. I think President Trump is a good man,” Musk said. “The president has been so unfairly attacked in the media, it’s really outrageous. At this point, I’ve spent a lot of time with the president and not once have I seen him do something mean or cruel or wrong.”

DOGE questions Clinton’s handling of USAID funds

The newly created agency DOGE – Department of Government Efficiency – lead by tech billionaire Elon Musk, which aims to reform spending and improve efficiency, is now analyzing USAID spending records in order to identify wasteful expenditures.

Trump supporters and proponents of the initiative believe it was about time the government put a stop to the inefficient spendings that have burdened federal agencies.

The transparency of the work of the federal agencies that is expected to be achieved by employing advanced data analytics and innovative monitoring tools by DOGE will uncover possible misappropriated funds.

As expected, there are also those that are against the DOGE’s initiative, claiming the employees of the agency are not experienced enough to handle sensitive information.

Among them is former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. In a series of posts on the social media, Clinton claimed that many of the team members “aren’t even old enough to rent a car.”

Her posts were direct and pointed at those working on the USAID spending review. She questioned their expertise to manage critical projects such as as upgrading aviation systems, referring to the recent airplane crashes.

Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary, fired back, stating that the current issues are a result of the past politics and decades of bureaucratic inefficiency.

Further, he added DOGE discovered evidence of “extreme grifting” by the Clintons through USAID.

According to the Independent, “The Supreme Court has temporarily blocked a judge’s order that requires Donald Trump’s administration to unfreeze roughly $2 billion in foreign aid payments.”

A day prior, a federal judge in Washington, D.C. ordered the administration to restore funding for USAID contracts as Trump failed to fulfill the contracts while Elon Musk pushed for the entire aid agency to disolve.

Speaking of USAID, Musk wowed to put it through a “wood chipper” and smeared it as a “criminal organization” that should “die.”

Recently, rumors were that Hillary Clinton’s daughter, Chelsea Clinton, who is the vice chair of the Clinton Foundation, received $84 million from the USAID. The news was all over the social media, with Newsweek stating that the news was false.

Hillary Clinton took to the social media to make it clear her family and the foundation they run “doesn’t depend on federal money,” and that they “don’t earn anything from this work.”

House passes bill preventing presidents from halting oil drilling without congressional approval

Lawmakers passed the “Protecting American Energy Production Act” that prohibits the president from “declaring a moratorium on the use of hydraulic fracturing unless Congress authorizes the moratorium,” Fox News reported.

Republican House members, 226 in total, voted in favor to pass the bill unanimously while 118 Democrats voted against the legislation.

The bill is a direct reaction to actions by the Biden administration that placed restrictions on oil and gas drilling and related activities.

The focus is to limit executive power over oil drilling regulations. It sets a new standard for energy policy decisions.

The legislation was introduced by Rep. August Pfluger of Texas who criticized the previous administration, highlighting the negative impact of Biden’s policies on the American energy sector.

He referred to Biden’s ban on oil and gas drilling across roughly 625 million acres of coastal and offshore waters as to a move that undermines American energy security.

“When President Biden took office, his administration began imposing restrictions that many view as a direct attack on American energy production,” Pfluger stated after the bill’s passage. 

“My legislation that passed today is a necessary first step in reversing Biden’s war on energy by preventing the federal government from banning the use of hydraulic fracturing,” he said

If passed into law, the bill will play a key role in shaping how future administrations approach energy policy. This means that even future presidents must go through the legislative process, prompting a wider discussion on the matter, if they want to make changes.

Democrats on the other hand believe that the bill will limit the president’s ability to act decisively during environmental emergencies. 

During the presidential campaign, Donald Trump made it his mission to harness domestically produced energy as part of his “drill, baby, drill” agenda.

7 types of pain you should never ignore

When they experience pain, some people try to ignore it and don’t seek medical assistance for so long that they even get used to living with it. However, it is of crucial importance that any pain should be addressed as soon as possible, especially if it proceeds for a longer period of time.

What we should be aware of is that our body warns us when something isn’t right, we just need to listen to it.

Below are some types of pain that may seem minor but can eventually cause more trouble if left unchecked.

1 Painful Urination

If you experience pain while urinating and you feel the urge to urinate more often than usual or suddenly and more urgently than usual, it can be a sign of a urinary tract infection. These infections are mostly caused by bacteria from poo entering the urinary tract, but they can also be a result of kidney stones, issues with the prostate at men, urinary catheters, weakened immune system, and not drinking enough fluids, among the rest.

2 Leg Pain with Swelling

Throbbing pain in your thigh or lower leg accompanied with swelling, redness and warmth may be a sign of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). This can lead to a more serious condition known as pulmonary embolism, when a blood cloth breaks off and goes to the lungs. This if one of the types of pain that you should address promptly.

3 Throat Pain

When swallowing feels like you’re gargling sand, it’s time to take action.

While this type of pain may refer to tonsil stones or strep throat, two conditions treated easily, if you left it unchecked it can lead to complications. In case you experience swelling, fever, or your voice is more croaky than normal consult a healthcare provider.

4 Chest Pain

Chest pain refers to any pain felt in the chest area – from the shoulders to the bottom of the ribs. This pain can sometimes be a symptom of a heart attack or another heart condition, especially when it is accompanied with shortness of breath, dizziness, or cold sweats.

5 Severe Headache

Everybody has experienced headache at some point in their life. While some headaches can be caused by stress, other types of pain in the head may be related to more serious conditions such as hemorrhagic stroke, aneurysm, meningitis, and migraine, among the rest. If the headaches is accompanied by other symptoms, such as nauseousness, confusion, or seeing spots, maybe it’s time to pay the doctor a visit.

6 Sharp Lower Back Pain

According to Healthline, “A stabbing pain in the lower right back can have many causes, such as endometriosis in females, prostatitis in males, or things like muscle strain or sciatica.”

It can also be a result of kidney stones, herniated disk, or an injury from sports of lifting heavy objects.

If the pain doesn’t go in a few days, consult a doctor.

7 Pelvic Pain

The most common causes of pelvic pain in women are period pain, endometriosis, or an ovarian cyst. In some cases, this pain can be related to more serious conditions such as ectopic pregnancy, womb cancer, or ovarian cancer.

In men, pelvic pain is mostly a result of prostatitis, a condition affecting the prostate.

Our grandma lived in an old trailer for many years

My darling grandma spent her days living in an old trailer. I’m ashamed to admit it, but my husband seemed to be excited by the thought of her passing, thinking we would inherit millions. I knew my grandma didn’t have that amount of money, but rumors had it she had, and my husband couldn’t wait that money to become ours.

But, my sweet grandma knew better than that.

When she passed away, we went to the lawyers office for the reading of her will, and it turned out my grandma didn’t even own the old trailer. She had sold it to an old friend who lived across the street years prior, but still got to live there. She then used the money to travel. Not long journeys, but more like weekend getaways to nice hotels and places she had never been to before.

Needless to say, my husband Bernard was outraged.

“But where is her money? Any hidden fortune?” he kept asking the lawyer, who assured him over and over again that there was no money.

My grandma left me a letter. The lawyer said she wanted me to read it in private. I decided to take it home, and read it in peace. My husband reminded me a thousand times that if there something about money there that it belonged to the both of us since we were married.

Until that point, I wasn’t aware how greedy Bernard was. For him, it was all about money.

My grandma’s letter brought teras to my eyes. In it, she shared her wisdom with me again. She wrote that it wasn’t the material things that matter, but the peace a person finds in their life. She reminded me that I was a caring person, urging me to never forget that greed can only poison people.

Further, my grandma wrote I should go to the old oak tree behind the trailer and dig a bit because there was one final gift for me there. She said it wasn’t a hidden treasure, but something she knew I would cherish.

The following day, Bernard and I headed to the old oak tree. There, we found a bunch of old photographs of my grandma, her recipe book, and a key. My grandma’s friend, Erna, told us it was of an old cottage by the lake about thirty miles from there. It turned out my grandma spent a lot of her time there.

Bernard was rushing me to get to the cottage as soon as possible. When we finally arrived, we realized it was a tiny space, a two-bedroom log cabin-like structure with creaky floors and a patch of land out back leading to a small, sparkling lake.

The first thing Bernard said was, “How much do you think we can sell this for?”

Again, for him, it was all about money.

“Why do you think I would sell it?” I asked him, “This belonged to the most special person I knew, and I’m not selling it for any money in the world.”

It was obvious he was angry at me.

As days passed by, I started spending more time at the cottage. I repainted it and renovate it a bit. Eventually, I turned it into a small bed-and-breakfast with Erna’s help.

I wanted other people to enjoy the quiet and peace that place offered.

My grandma taught me that wealth is not measured in dollars but in the love we share.

As of Bernard, I was aware my marriage to him was coming to an end when he couldn’t contain his excitement over my grandma’s passing, thinking he would become an over-night millionaire.

I didn’t need a greedy person like him by mi side.

Moving forward wasn’t easy, but I have finally found my sanctuary and my peace.

Donald Trump makes shocking accusation about who left cocaine in the White House

President Donald Trump spoke of the infamous incident about the cocaine bag left in the White House in 2023, saying the person behind it could easily be identified based on fingerprint evidence, but the traces have been wiped clean.

On Thursday afternoon, during an interview at the White House, The Spectator‘s Ben Domenech asked the president, “So… who actually left the cocaine in the White House?” Trump was quick to answer, “Well, either Joe or Hunter. Could be Joe, too.” 

The cocaine bag in question was discovered by the secret services in a storage locker near the entrance to the White House’s West Wing back in July 2, 2023.

The investigation didn’t find any suspects.

Wikipedia

“That was such a terrible thing because, you know, those bins are very loaded up with… they’re not clean, and they have hundreds and even thousands of fingerprints,” Trump said of the discovery. “And when they went to look at it, it was absolutely stone cold, wiped dry. You know that, right?”

According to the president, that particular locker where the drug was found was cleaned with “the strongest form of alcohol.”

“By the way, and I have to tell you, I think I’m going to look into that because it was … bad stuff happened there,” he added.

REUTERS via NewYork Post

At the time of the incident, the Secret Service revealed the bag of cocaine was “subjected to advanced fingerprint and DNA analysis.” However, the lab results “did not develop latent fingerprints and insufficient DNA was present for investigative comparisons.”

Many are confused by Trump’s accusations of the Bidens because at the time the cocaine bag was discovered, they were not staying at the White House but at presidential retreat Camp David in Maryland.

“The Biden family was not here,” former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said during a July 2023 press conference. “They were not here Friday. They were not here Saturday or Sunday.” She added: They were not even here Monday. They came back on Tuesday. So, to ask that question is actually incredibly irresponsible, and I’ll just leave it there.” 

Initially, it was believed that the bag of white powder was anthrax, but it was soon determined it was drugs.

My 6-year-old son stayed with my MIL for a week

I had my son when I was eighteen. Although I was rather young, he became my world. His father left us the moment he learned I was expecting so I was left to raise him all by myself.

And then, I met Ethan. He became an important part of my and Liam’s life.

I was over the moon whenever I saw how Ethan treated my baby, as though he was his biological father. That’s when I knew Ethan was the one.

Soon after, we tied the knot.

Some time after our wedding, we decided to go to the so much-anticipated honeymoon. Ethan said that while we were away, his mother, Angela, would take care of Liam.

Honestly, I didn’t feel at ease leaving my son with her, but Ethan insisted. He assured me his mother loved my son, and I finally agreed.

However, four days into our trip, I received a call from Liam, who was 6 at the time.

“Mom, don’t do this to me,” he choked out. My heart stopped. “What do you mean, honey? Are you okay?”

That’s when he told me that my MIL told him I would give him away if he doesn’t behave.

He was scared, thinking I left him for good.

I tried to explain to him it wasn’t going to happen, but Liam was disturbed and couldn’t stop crying.

It didn’t take long before I asked Ethan to pack. We were returning home.

When I told him what had happened, he refused to believe that his mom would ever do such a thing.

But Liam was telling the truth. When we confronted Angela, she said that fear built character, so what if she threatened my son that I was going to give him up for adoption.

She didn’t understand how her words impacted my son in a negative way.

I was done with that woman. I took Liam and brought him home.

Ethan was also mad at his mom, who kept yelling at us both that we weren’t good parents.

Midjourney

It took some time for my son to understand that I wasn’t going anywhere.

He refused to sleep alone for months, but now he’s doing great. He knows I am here to stay, always and forever.

Before I said ‘I do’ my son yelled, ‘Dad, wait! Look at her shoulder!’

Losing my wife was one of the hardest things I have ever experienced. She was my rock, my world, my everything… and then, suddenly, she was gone, leaving me to take care for our son all by myself.

Four years after her sudden passing, I met someone.

Isabella was a very special woman. Not only she loved me unconditionally, but she also accepted my son, Jayden, as her own.

One day, I told Jayden that my relationship with Isabella was serious, and he said he was happy for me, giving me his blessing to marry her.

Life felt complete again, until the day of our wedding, when things changed.

Standing at the altar, ready to say “I do,” my son suddenly yelled, “Dad, wait! Look at her shoulder!”

His words echoed through the church. Suddenly, all eyes were on Jayden.

“What is going on?” I asked quietly.

Jayden, who was still very young, approached me and said, “Dad, Isabella’s mark on her shoulder is exactly like same with Ava’s, a girl that used to study at my school. It is also exactly on the same spot.”

“Oh, Jayden” I said, “anyone can have a birthmark like that.”

“But dad, I read that these things run in the family.”

Before I could dismiss Jayden’s words as nonsense, I noticed Isabella crying.

The minister realized something was wrong so he suggested we take a brief recess.

While everyone’s eyes were on us, Isabella leaned towards me and said, “Mark, I have a confession to make.”

Her words sent chills down my spine. I couldn’t possibly guess what was going on.

“You see, when I was still very young, I gave birth to a baby daughter. But I couldn’t keep her, so I gave her up for adoption,” Isabella said while trying to hold her tears from running down her face.

As I tried to realize what she was saying, she added, “Do you think this girl could be mine?”

Isabella was looking at me with eyes full of hope.

I was so confused that I didn’t say a word.

At that moment, the priest asked if we could proceed, and I said yes. But once the ceremony was over, I demanded answers.

How could Isabella keep something so huge a secret. I was angry, but at the same time, I understood her reasons. She never really thought that she could see her girl again, and there she was, learning of someone who shared the same birthmark.

The days that followed were filled with long conversations and attempts to rebuild our trust. And then, the three of us, made it a mission to find Isabella’s daughter.

The documents of her adoption were confidential, and the only trace we had was that the daughter could be the girl, Ava, that Jayson once knew.

It took a lot of time, but we were eventually able to locate Ava and her family.

We contacted her adoptive parents, who were extremely kind people and agreed to meet with us.

Ava was aware she was adopted, and she knew that her mom was forced to leave her due to her young age. She was willing to forgive Isabella.

While Ava stayed with her family, she also remained close to us. She even visits sometimes.

If it wasn’t for Jayden, who yelled at “Look at her shoulder” during one of the happiest days of my life, Isabella and Ava wouldn’t meet.

Life is truly unpredictable.

911 call connected to the death of Gene Hackman released

The circumstances surrounding the deaths of Hollywood legend Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa, whose bodies were found in separate rooms in their Santa Fe, New Mexico mansion, are still being investigated.

Hackman’s daughter, Elizabeth, was the first to suspect the cause of death could be gas leak, although, according to her, the mansion where her dad and his wife resided was relatively new.

The Santa Fe Fire Department and New Mexico Gas Company found no apparent signs of a carbon monoxide leak, but the medical examiner is performing tests, including checking for the presence of the toxic gas.

Following the autopsy, it was reported that “Initial findings noted no external trauma to either individual.”

AP Photo/File

The call to 911 was made from the actor’s estate by an individual who identified himself as a caretaker. According to law enforcement, the call was made just before 2 p.m.

CNN obtained the 911 audio in the actor’s death.

According to it, the caretaker, who sounded emotional, said they couldn’t enter the home. However, they were able to see two unconscious bodies through the window.

“No, dude, they’re not moving. Just send somebody out here really quick,” the caretaker told the dispatcher.

The newest release from the sheriff’s office stated that it “remains an open investigation.”

As per TMZ, a Santa Fe detective who sought a search warrant believed “the death of the two deceased individuals to be suspicious enough in nature to require a thorough search and investigation because the reporting party found the front door of the residence unsecured and opened.”

At the time being, the official autopsy and toxicology reports are still pending.

“The autopsy is going to be key, and the toxicology,” Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza said.

Hackman’s daughter, Leslie, said that despite his age, 95, her father was in a good physical condition. “He liked to do Pilates and yoga, and he was continuing to do that several times a week. So he was in good health.”

She added that despite she hadn’t seen her father and his wife and hadn’t contacted them for a couple of months, they were very close.

Hackman was nominated for an Academy award for his role in Bonnie & Clyde in 1968, and for I Never Sang for My Father in 1971.

He went on two receive two Oscars for the 1972 film The French Connection, and the 1993 film Unforgiven.

Hackman’s colleagues shared their tributes. “There was no finer actor than Gene. Intense and instinctive. Never a false note. He was also a dear friend whom I will miss very much,” actor Clint Eastwood said in a statement.

“One of the personal highlights of my career was bringing the French Film Gardé a Vue (Under Suspicion) to life with the incredibly gifted Gene Hackman. And of course… Unforgiven. Rest in peace, my friend,” Morgan Freeman posted on Instagram.

Gene Hackman and wife had been ‘dead for some time,’ says warrant

Two-time Oscar winner Gene Hackman, 95, and wife Betsy Arakawa, 63, could have been dead for quite some time when authorities discovered their deceased bodies in separate rooms in their Santa Fe mansion.

One of the couple’s dogs was also found dead.

Hackman’s daughter, Elizabeth, shared her grief over her dad’s tragic passing. Speaking to TMZ, she said, “The house is fairly modern, built in 2000, but we don’t know if there were any issues with gas leaks or if there were any recent service calls to the property.”

Since gas leak was ruled out, investigators are still scratching their heads over the possible cause of death of the Hollywood icon, his wife, and their dog.

According to the Associated Press, Hackman’s body was found in a mudroom, while Arakawa’s was in a bathroom next to a space heater.

While the Santa Fe sheriff’s office spokesperson, Denise Avila, said there was no indication of foul play, detectives noted in a search warrant affidavit that the deaths were “suspicious enough in nature to require a thorough search and investigation.”

As stated in the publication, pills were scattered in the bathroom.

Daily Mail reported that the bodies of Hackman and his wife were partially mummified.

According to officials, it would take around three months for the toxicology report to come out.

“We’re trying to put together a timeline of when the decedents were last seen or spoken to,” Santa Fe County Sheriff Adam Mendoza told Today. He said it was “a challenge” because they were “very private individuals and a private family.”

He added: “Just based on their body and other evidence on the body, it appears [they had been deceased for] several days and possibly even up to a couple weeks.”
