Are you suffering from abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, bloating and feeling more tired than usual? These could be the signs of a parasitic infection!

Parasitic infections can be dangerous, but also incredibly hard to diagnose:

Parasitic infections can be difficult to diagnose because they often cause nonspecific symptoms that can be attributed to a variety of other illnesses. In addition, many parasites are not easily detected by standard laboratory tests. As a result, diagnosis often relies on a combination of clinical suspicion and specialized testing.

Not only is a parasitic infection difficult to diagnose, it is possible to have an infection and not even present any recognizable symptoms:

There are many different types of parasitic diseases, and the symptoms can vary depending on the type of parasite involved. Some common symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, and weight loss.

However, it is also possible to have an infection without any noticeable symptoms.

The truth is that the medical establishment is all but ignoring the threat of parasites, but this wasn’t always the case.

Before the healthcare bureaucracy’s myopic focus on COVID-19 and other potential pandemics, the Centers for the Disease Control issued a stunning warning about the threat of parasitic diseases here in the United States:

Most people think parasitic diseases occur in poor and developing countries, or are infections they might pick up on a trip to a foreign country. However, parasitic infections also occur in the United States, and in some cases affect millions of people. Often they can go unnoticed, with few symptoms. But many times the infections cause serious illnesses, including seizures, blindness, pregnancy complications, heart failure, and even death. Anyone—regardless of race or economic status—can become infected.

CDC has targeted five neglected parasitic infections (NPIs) in the United States as priorities for public health action based on the numbers of people infected, the severity of the illnesses, or our ability to prevent and treat them. These NPIs include Chagas disease, cysticercosis, toxocariasis, toxoplasmosis, and trichomoniasis.

The threat of parasites is just as high today, as it was just five years ago – the only difference is that our healthcare establishment has all but abandoned doing the necessary work of empowering Americans to take control of their health and preventing dangerous healthcare outcomes before they occur.

Fortunately, freedom-fighting doctors like Dr. Peter McCullough are now speaking up about the threats posed by parasites. In a new post on his widely-read SubStack, Dr. McCullough says:

While each illness has diagnostic strategies followed by care providers, many patients want to take a proactive stance with respect to parasites. The CDC says the burden of parasitic diseases among Americans is high.

Not only is Dr. McCullough sounding the alarm about the threat of parasites, McCullough is also offering Americans the ability to do something about this threat:

Hakeem Jeffries

Democrat House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries threatened retaliation against Department of Homeland Security agents if they arrest Democrat lawmakers for storming the Newark ICE facility and assaulting agents.

“What happens if [DHS] were to go and arrest these [Democrat] members or if they were to try to sanction them…” a reporter asked Hakeem Jeffries on Tuesday.

Jeffries threatened federal agents.

“They’ll find out. They’ll find out. They’ll find out. It’s a red line. They know better than to go down that road. There are clear lines that they dare not cross,” Jeffries said.

A Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman on Saturday said that members of Congress bodyslammed a female ICE agent.

Tricia McLaughlin, Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs, appeared on CNN to discuss the violent confrontation between New Jersey Democrats and ICE Agents at the Delaney Hall detention facility.

Democrat Reps. LaMonica McIver, Bob Menendez and Bonnie Watson Coleman were all fighting for the release of dangerous criminal aliens.

ICE bodycam footage showed Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver verbally abusing and physically assaulting federal agents at a detention facility in Newark.

Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver (woman in the red jacket) physically attacked ICE agents at Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark, New Jersey, on Friday.

“I touch whoever I want motherf*cker!” McIver shouted.

Mayor Baraka was arrested and charged with federal trespass on Friday, however, more arrests are imminent, the DHS confirmed on Saturday.

“There will likely be more arrests coming. We have bodycam footage of some of these members of Congress assaulting our ICE enforcement officers, including bodyslamming a female ICE officer. We will be showing that to viewers very shortly,” Tricia McLaughlin told CNN.

“If you have that video, are you suggesting members of Congress will be arrested?” CNN asked the DHS spox.

“That is definitely on the table,” Tricia McLaughlin said.

Alina Habba, the US Attorney for the District of New Jersey, announced her office has launched a federal investigation into the violent altercation between Congressional Democrats and ICE agents at the Delaney Hall detention center in Newark on Friday.

A federal judge in Pennsylvania on Tuesday became the first to say President Trump can invoke the Alien Enemies Act to deport Tren de Aragua gang members.

US District Judge Stephanie Haines, a Trump appointee, said President Trump’s description of the Venezuelan gang’s “incursion” into the US meets the threshold to invoke the Alien Enemies Act.

“Having done its job, the Court now leaves it to the Political Branches of the government, and ultimately to the people who elect those individuals, to decide whether the laws and those executing them continue to reflect their will,” the judge wrote.

The judge said in her 43-page ruling that the Trump Administration must provide detainees subject to removal under AEA a 21 days’ notice and “opportunity to be heard.”

The notice must be in English and Spanish and if needed, Spanish-to-English interpreters shall be provided for any necessary hearings.

Numerous judges have ruled against Trump since Boasberg ordered planes carrying Venezuelan gang members en route to El Salvador to be turned around.

Earlier this month, a federal judge issued a permanent injunction and barred the Trump Administration from using the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) to remove Venezuelan gang members and transport them to El Salvador.

US District Judge Fernando Rodriguez, a Trump appointee, called the President’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act “unlawful.”

According to Judge Rodriguez, the AEA only applies when the US is at war and under an armed attack.

Last month, a federal judge in Texas halted the deportation of suspected Tren de Aragua gang members under the Alien Enemies Act.

US District Judge David Briones, a Clinton appointee, on Friday ordered the release of two suspected TdA members. The judge admonished DOJ lawyers and said they “have not demonstrated they have any lawful basis” to keep the couple detained.

Judge Briones’ ruling applies to all illegal aliens facing deportation under the Alien Enemies Act in his Texas judicial district.

Other federal judges in New York, Colorado, and South Texas have issued similar rulings.

The Trump Administration continues to drain the Deep State rot deep from within the government.

As Fox News reported, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard on Tuesday fired the top two officials on the National Intelligence Council, after whistleblowers revealed they were “radically opposed” to President Trump. The two officials in question are Mike Collins, who was serving as the acting chair of the National Intelligence Council, and his deputy, Maria Langan-Riekhof.

Trump officials told Fox News that Collins has several whistleblower complaints against him for anti-Trump bias and undermining the Trump administration. Moreover, Collins has close ties with former CIA Deputy Director and “Spies Who Lie” leader Michael Morrell.

As TGP readers know, Morrell organized a letter along with 51 other former spooks claiming that Hunter Biden’s laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” He did this to give Joe Biden a “talking point” ahead of a debate against Trump.

Trump officials explained Langan-Reikhof was terminated because she had been a “key advocate” for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. She also exhibited several signs of bias against Trump.

In addition to firing these two individuals, Fox News reveals that Gabbard is moving the National Intelligence Council from the CIA to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to “directly hold accountable any improper action and politicization of intelligence.

Gabbard’s latest move comes less than one month after she criminally referred three intelligence officials to the Justice Department for leaking to The New York Times and the Washington Post.

“Politicization of our intelligence and leaking classified information puts our nation’s security at risk and must end,” Gabbard told Fox News at the time. “Those who leak classified information will be found and held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.”

An ODNI official also told Fox News at the time that they were “aggressively investigating other leaks.”

In addition to Gabbard’s decisive actions, DHS Chief Kristi Noem identified two leakers within the Department of Homeland Security last month and announced that they faced up to 10 years in prison.

Three key aides to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have also been terminated for leaking to the corporate media.

Two of the fired aides reportedly plan to sue for “wrongful termination.”

President Donald Trump took aim at the globalist-led European Union this week, declaring it “nastier than China” and exposing what he says are decades of unfair trade practices that have left American workers and industries in the dust.

Speaking from the White House on Monday, May 12, Trump didn’t pull any punches. “The European Union is, in many ways, nastier than China,” he said flatly, according to a report from The Telegraph.

“We’ve just started with them. They sell us 13 million cars—we sell them none. They flood our markets with agricultural goods—we can’t get ours in. They don’t take our products. We have all the cards.”

Trump’s fiery remarks came during the announcement of a sweeping executive order to slash prescription drug prices for American consumers. The plan aims to stop U.S. citizens from subsidizing Europe’s state-controlled healthcare systems.

“The European Union has been brutal,” Trump said. “The drug companies told me horror stories. We’re done paying for Europe’s cheap medicine. Europe’s gonna have to pay more, and America is going to pay a lot less.”

The policy will either compel Big Pharma to lower prices voluntarily or face pressure from the federal government. “This is the power of the American market,” Trump emphasized. “We’re not going to be taken advantage of anymore.”

The European Commission, the EU’s executive arm, last week threatened retaliatory tariffs on up to €95 billion ($106 billion) worth of U.S. goods if trade talks falter—a bluff, say Trump allies. White House trade advisor Peter Navarro blasted Brussels’ threat as “a grave mistake,” warning that it would backfire spectacularly.

“Europe has been playing both sides for too long,” said Navarro. “They lecture us on democracy while shaking down our industries with one-sided regulations, suing our companies, and then whining when we push back.”

President Trump, who recently called EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen “fantastic,” hasn’t met her in person this term, and now any future meeting appears contingent on Europe bringing a serious deal to the table.

Von der Leyen, for her part, said she’d only engage if a “concrete” trade proposal was in place—something Trump seems more than ready to deliver, on American terms.

With tariffs already imposed on EU metals and automobiles—and more possibly on the horizon—Trump is signaling that the US will no longer play the role of global ATM. The 10% baseline tariffs and 25% auto duties are part of a broader strategy to reverse decades of offshoring and reinvigorate domestic manufacturing.

“The globalists shipped our jobs overseas, and Brussels cheered them on,” Trump told reporters. “But we hold the cards now. This ends here.”

Interestingly, Trump’s EU criticism comes as he attempts to mend fences with Beijing. After tense trade negotiations in Switzerland, the US and China agreed to scale back mutual tariffs, cutting American levies on Chinese goods from 145% to 30%, while China slashes its countermeasures from 125% to 10%. The 90-day rollback gives both sides a bit of breathing room.

A sickening act of violence took the life of a four-time breast cancer survivor, sending her entire Colorado town into a state of mourning.

As 9 News Denver reported on Saturday, 49-year-old Jennifer James was undergoing chemotherapy for cancer in her Berthoud home late last month when 20-year-old Ebenezer Worku opened fire into her house. A single bullet struck a window and hit James in the arm and chest, killing her.

Police arrested Worku at the scene of the crime, which occurred on April 28. As FOX 31 Denver reported, Worku claimed to police that he fired his Glock 22 handgun at her home, but had no clue whether he had shot anyone.

Worku also said he fired his weapon again while trying to clear the chamber. Police said two of James’s four children were home when the incident occurred.

According to the New York Post, police were able to track down Worku after using surveillance footage and license plate reader data.

Jonah Beeken, the owner of B-Rad’s Arcade and Family Fun Center, provided a valuable account to 9 News Denver regarding the night of the incident. His place of business is located close to James’s home.

Beeken told the outlet that he received a text message on the night of the shooting from other business owners, warning of random gunfire and advising businesses to lock down. Afterward, police deputies searched the area and requested surveillance footage.

“They were walking up and down the street, kind of checking the buildings out,” Beeken explained. “It was our community, and it was somebody that was important to us, because we’re small.”

Beeken also noted that James left behind four children and confirmed that she was fighting cancer.

“She was a mother of four, and she was battling cancer at the time,” Beeken said. “That was the first thing her friend told me when she called me.”

James’s daughter, Ashley, sent a text statement to 9 News Denver, mourning her mother’s death.

“My mom was a single mom of 4 of us kids. She was a four-time breast cancer survivor,” Ashley James wrote. “It feels like a cruel joke that she was taken from us in such a senseless and violent way, when she did nothing but fight for her life since she was 29-years-old.”

“She never once complained about her treatments in those 20 years. She was the most selfless mom and did everything for us kids,” James added. “Her resiliency is something that I have always admired and is something that I hope to carry on in her memory.”

The New York Post reports that Worku has been charged with first-degree murder. He is being held at Larimer County Jail on a $1.25 million cash-only bond.

U.S. egg prices nosedived by 12.7% in April, marking the steepest monthly decline since March 1984, according to the latest Consumer Price Index data released Tuesday.

The average price for a dozen Grade A eggs fell to $5.12, down from a record $6.23 in March.

According to the latest U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics:

Five of the six major grocery store food group indexes decreased in April. Driven primarily by a 12.7-percent decrease in the index for eggs, the index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs fell 1.6 percent in April after rising in recent months. The fruits and vegetables index decreased 0.4 percent over the month and the cereals and bakery products index declined 0.5 percent.

[…]

The index for food at home rose 2.0 percent over the last 12 months. The meats, poultry, fish, and eggs index rose 7.0 percent over the last 12 months as the eggs index increased 49.3 percent.

In January 2017, as Trump assumed office, the average price for a dozen eggs was approximately $1.32. Throughout his tenure, prices remained relatively steady.

When Joe Biden took office in January 2021, the average price for a dozen Grade A eggs was a modest $1.47. Fast forward to December 2024, and that same dozen now costs a staggering $4.15—a nearly 200% increase, according to the Federal Reserve of St. Louis.

The Biden administration has attempted to deflect blame, citing factors such as avian influenza outbreaks and supply chain disruptions. However, these excuses fall flat when considering the broader context of rampant inflation and economic policies that have devalued the purchasing power of the average American.

Prices had shot up due to mass culling of chicken flocks during the waning months of the Biden administration to fight an outbreak of avian flu that Democrats have been trying to blame on President Trump.

President Donald Trump’s administration has taken decisive action to address the crisis.

In February, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced a $1 billion investment to bolster biosecurity measures on farms.

The Trump Department of Justice also investigated major egg producers regarding the steep rise in prices.

Defendant Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs and key prosecution witness Cassie Ventura in happier times.

In the second day of the high-profile sex trafficking trial of rap mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, all eyes are fixated in 8-month-pregnant Cassie Ventura.

She is the woman who deflagrated all this process with her civil lawsuit against Diddy – who settled out of court in 24 hours.

She is also the woman who the whole world saw getting beaten and kicked by Diddy on security footage from a hotel lobby – images that appear near-impossible to refute.

The prosecution, in their opening statements, presented the defendant as a ‘larger than life’ figure and a ‘leader of a criminal enterprise’, using violence and threats to sexually exploit women.

The defense presented Diddy as nothing more than a ‘swinger’, and reportedly poked some holes on the otherwise very damaging testimony of male escort Daniel Phillip, the first to be deposed, who said he would be paid up to $6,000 for a sex session over the period of ten years.

After prosecutor Emily Johnson asked the judge to clear the courtroom whenever ‘sexually explicit’ images are shown to the jury, it was time for Cassie Ventura to testify.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs: the defense tries to paint him as just a ‘swinger’.

Casandra ‘Cassie’ Ventura told the court about the 10 years spent in a relationship fraught with violence, and how, when she turned 22, things took a nasty turn.

New York Post reported:

“’Sean proposed to me this idea, this sexual encounter her called voyeurism, where he would watch me… [have] sexual activity with another person, specifically another man’,” the singer told the jury.”

She told the jury it wasn’t something she wanted to be doing, but she ‘was in love, and wanted to make him happy’.

“’And I just didn’t feel like I had much say into it at that time, being super young, naive, a total people pleaser’, Cassie said. ‘I didn’t know enough if he would be upset to be violent or write me off’.”

Watch: Diddy beats Cassie in the hotel lobby.

CNN has obtained footage of Diddy repeatedly beating his then girlfriend Cassie in a hotel hallway.

— MDN NEWS (@MDNnewss) May 17, 2024

Cassie made a very damning claim – one that the defense will try hard to contradict – that Diddy held the videos he took of her having sex with male prostitutes over her head, as blackmail.

Diddy would hit her in the face, she told the jury, for looking at him ‘in a way he didn’t like’.

Eventually she had no time or energy for her music career: ‘the freak-offs became a job’.

“’That took a big chunk out of my life’, Cassie testified. ‘There was no space to do anything else but to recover and try to feel normal again’. She said she would stay up for days taking drugs, drinking and having sex with a stranger. ‘The longest ever was four days, maybe even more – on and off with the breaks. It was significant’.”

This is a developing story: stay tuned for part 2.

Alina Habba

A magistrate judge warned US Attorney Alina Habba and ICE against ‘out-of-court’ statements about the case against Newark Mayor Ras Baraka during a hearing on Friday.

Public statements made by Alina Habba and ICE spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin following Ras Baraka’s arrest are at issue.

The Mayor of Newark was arrested for criminal trespass on Friday after storming the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility.

During a virtual hearing on Friday, US Magistrate André M. Espinosa warned Alina Habba against making public statements about an ongoing investigation after Ras Baraka’s attorney argued his client who is also running for New Jersey governor.

Politico reported:

Before Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was released from custody on Friday, a federal magistrate quickly determined he was not a flight risk and cautioned federal officials against making out-of-court statements about the mayor, who is also running for New Jersey governor, according to a newly-released transcript of the extraordinary virtual hearing … During the 18-minute videoconference, Baraka’s attorney Raymond Brown asked [U.S. Magistrate André M.] Espinosa to warn Trump administration officials against making derogatory public statements about his client … Earlier in the day, interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba had posted on social media that Baraka had “willingly chosen to disregard the law” before he was arrested at the immigration detention center he was protesting and seeking to inspect along with three members of New Jersey’s congressional delegation. Espinosa said to the extent anyone had made such comments, he would “caution them to heed carefully to the rules of professional conduct” and “boundaries of propriety for public comment related to an ongoing investigation and/or prosecution.”

On Monday, Alina Habba announced her office has launched a federal investigation into the violent altercation between Congressional Democrats and ICE agents at the Delaney Hall detention center in Newark on Friday.
