<p>On Wednesday, a video surfaced online of a male feminist <a href="https://humandefense.com/identified-man-who-roundhouse-kicked-pro-life-leader/">identified</a> as Jordan Hunt physically assaulting a woman for being pro-life.</p>
<p>Though Hunt is apparently still on the run and yet to be apprehended by Toronto police, he has received a small taste of the justice coming his way: The hair studio he worked at up until Wednesday, Noble Studio 101 Hair Studio, swiftly cut ties with Hunt after seeing the disturbing video, Human Defense Initiative has <a href="https://humandefense.com/identified-man-who-roundhouse-kicked-pro-life-leader/">confirmed</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><em>In screenshots provided to the Human Defense Initiative, when questioned about the assault, the shop replied &#8220;Was a sub contracter. Until today when I found out what happened today!!!! Not cool. He will never step foot in my studio again.&#8221;</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>In an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/noblestudio101/">Instagram</a> post, Noble Studio 101 Hair Studio confirmed the same, writing, &#8220;It has been brought to our attention that Jordan has been caught on camera assaulting an innocent bystander at a pro life rally. We don&#8217;t condone his actions and he has been let go. We believe that everyone has a right to an opinion and the right to voice their opinion without fear of physical violence.&#8221;</p>

<p>Hunt assaulted the pro-life demonstrator, Marie-Claire Bissonnette, on Sunday.</p>
<p>After Hunt allegedly vandalized numerous pro-life signs, Bissonnette began filming the man with his knowledge and informed him that she knew of his alleged destruction. Hunt tried to justify his actions by defending abortion, predictably speaking of hypothetical raped and impregnated teens.</p>
<p>Bissonnette calmly responded, &#8220;It&#8217;s a baby. If someone is raped and she gives birth and she decides to kill her three-year-old child &#8212;&#8221;</p>
<p>Hunt interrupted her with a roundhouse kick. The video can be viewed <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/36652/watch-male-feminist-roundhouse-kicks-pro-life-amanda-prestigiacomo">here</a>.</p>
<p>Bissonette told Human Defense Initiative that she &#8220;hope[s] this unfortunate experience can remind the public of the violent deaths pre-born babies experience from abortion.&#8221;</p>
<p>The pro-life leader said she plans on pressing charges over the assault, but added that Hunt&#8217;s &#8220;also loved by the Father, so please pray for him.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hunt is suspected to be in the Toronto area. Any information on his whereabouts is asked to be reported to the Toronto PD at 416-808-2222.</p>

That Male Feminist Who Kicked A Pro-Life Woman? He Just Got A Small Taste Of Justice.

<p>Democrat Rep. Stephen Lynch (MA) on Thursday lashed out at President Donald Trump and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, comparing the agents to Nazis and their secret police known as the Gestapo.</p>
<p>During a hearing on &#8220;sanctuary&#8221; policies, Lynch called ICE agents &#8220;thugs&#8221; who were committing &#8220;abductions&#8221; in a way reminiscent of the Gestapo &#8220;grabbing people off the streets of Poland.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It does look like a Gestapo operation! It does look like the Gestapo!&#8221; Lynch yelled, describing one alleged ICE encounter. &#8220;That&#8217;s an appropriate comparison. That&#8217;s exactly what it was like!&#8221;</p>
<p>Notably, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) recently <a href="https://www.dhs.gov/news/2025/05/19/dhs-hits-back-tim-walzs-dangerous-rhetoric-comparing-ice-gestapo">compared</a> ICE agents as to the Gestapo, as well.</p>
<p>&#8220;Trump isn&#8217;t trying to protect us, he&#8217;s trying to divide us,&#8221; Lynch charged. &#8220;It&#8217;s us and them, he&#8217;s trying to divide us. &#8230; He&#8217;s pitting neighbor against neighbor.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Democrat then said he was fighting Nazis, like his father did during WWII.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ya know my dad served in the Second World War, he fought the Nazis. He fought the Nazis in Northern Africa, he fought the Nazis on the Italian peninsula,&#8221; Lynch said. &#8220;I think he&#8217;s looking down right now and he&#8217;s happy that I&#8217;m fighting today&#8217;s Nazis! He&#8217;s proud of that, we all should be.&#8221;</p>

Dem Rep Loses Mind Over ‘Gestapo’ ICE Agents: ‘I’m Fighting Today’s Nazis!’

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) on Thursday grilled New York Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul during a hearing on sanctuary states over crimes committed by illegal aliens.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stefanik, who is rumored to be eyeing a run for governor, first highlighted executive orders signed by Hochul that maintain New York as a sanctuary state, meaning the state will not cooperate with federal authorities on illegal immigration. Then, the Republican listed a series of heinous crimes committed by illegals, including the violent sexual assault of minors and one illegal immigrant burning a sleeping woman alive on the subway.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Governor Hochul, on your first day in office, you signed Executive Order 1,&#8221; Stefanik said. &#8220;And you extended this executive order not once, not twice, but three times &#8212; most recently January 16 of this year.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The order, Stefanik read, was a continuation of sanctuary state policies. &#8220;It is the policy of the state that state officers or employees shall not disclose information to federal immigration authorities for the purpose of federal civil immigration enforcement,&#8221; she read. &#8220;It goes on to say, &#8216;Law enforcement officers may not use resources, equipment, or personnel for the purpose of detecting and apprehending any individual suspected or wanted for violating a civil immigration officer. Law enforcement officers have no authority in the state of New York to take any policy action solely because the person is an undocumented alien.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hochul attempted to contend that the order actually says New York will cooperate with federal immigration authorities.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;No, it does not say that,&#8221; Stefanik shot back. &#8220;I read what it says, and let me talk to you about the results.&#8221; One illegal immigrant, she said, &#8220;found a 15-year-old girl, threatened her with a metal pole, told her to get into the back seat of his car. He took her clothes off, and he violently raped her in Albany, New York.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In another example, the governor said she was unfamiliar with the illegal immigrant Stefanik was talking about. &#8220;I bet you&#8217;re going to be familiar when I remind you,&#8221; Stefanik told Hochul. &#8220;He found a sleeping woman on the subway, lit her on fire, and burned her alive.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;This is in Kathy Hochul&#8217;s New York,&#8221; the representative said. &#8220;And as I&#8217;m sure you are aware, and I&#8217;ll remind you: [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] issued an order to detain this violent criminal, but that was rejected by New York officials due to sanctuary state laws.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hochul responded by calling the crimes &#8220;horrific&#8221; and contending New York works with ICE.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;You did not in this case,&#8221; Stefanik responded. &#8220;They are walking on the streets because of your policies and your executive order that you signed three times.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stefanik then outlined sexual assaults against minors, ages 11 and five. &#8220;You&#8217;re not advocating for these victims,&#8221; she said. &#8220;This is a five-year-old who was raped on Long Island in Nassau County.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;You are not advocating on behalf of these victims,&#8221; Stefanik repeated. &#8220;You are shielding illegals. Even in your opening statement, you prioritize putting illegals first.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Rapes of young girls, beatings of NYPD cops by illegals who are here under Kathy Hochul&#8217;s failed policies, burning New Yorkers alive,&#8221; Stefanik added. &#8220;This is Kathy Hochul&#8217;s New York.&#8221; </span></p>

Stefanik Blasts NY Gov At Migrant Crime Hearing: ‘A 5-Year-Old…Was Raped!’

<p>Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary <span style="font-weight: 400;">Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has named eight people to serve on the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP), <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/rfk-jr-guts-cdc-vaccine-panel-retiring-all-17-members?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=2&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=RFK+Jr.+Guts+CDC+Vaccine+Panel%2C+‘Retiring’+All+17+Members" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a highly influential vaccine panel he gutted</a> earlier in the week. </span></p>
<p>The new members include Dr. Robert Malone, who worked on early research for mRNA vaccine technology and is a vocal critic of the mRNA COVID vaccines, as well as other medical experts who took dissenting positions from the medical establishment during the COVID pandemic.</p>
<p>Kennedy announced on X Wednesday evening that the eight new members are &#8220;highly credentialed scientists, leading public-health experts, and some of America’s most accomplished physicians.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;All of these individuals are committed to evidence-based medicine, gold-standard science, and common sense,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They have each committed to demanding definitive safety and efficacy data before making any new vaccine recommendations.&#8221;</p>
<p>In addition to Malone, who&#8217;s the most well-known, the other members include Dr. Joseph R. Hibbeln, Martin Kulldorff, Retsef Levi, Dr. Cody Meissner, Dr. Michael A. Ross, Dr. James Pagano, and Vicky Pebsworth.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">On Monday, I took a major step towards restoring public trust in vaccines by reconstituting the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP). I retired the 17 current members of the committee. I’m now repopulating ACIP with the eight new members who will attend ACIP’s…</p>

<p>Kennedy noted Malone&#8217;s work on mRNA vaccine technology, specifically his &#8220;foundational research in the late 1980s on lipid-mediated mRNA delivery, which laid the groundwork for later developments in mRNA-based therapeutics.&#8221;</p>

<p>Dr. Martin Kulldorff, another panelist, is an epidemiologist who co-authored the pandemic-era Great Barrington Declaration, which criticizes lockdown restrictions, CBS News <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-cdc-vaccine-advisory-panel-names/https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-cdc-vaccine-advisory-panel-names/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">noted</a>. Additionally, Dr. Cody Meissner opposed COVID vaccine requirements for children and spoke out against masking them.</p>
<p>Kennedy said the new eight members will attend a scheduled ACIP meeting on June 25, which is set to discuss the COVID vaccine.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Explaining his reasoning for gutting the panel on Monday, Kennedy wrote in the Wall Street Journal that ACIP had lost the trust of the American people, effectively becoming a &#8220;rubber-stamp&#8221; for all vaccines while ignoring safety concerns and conflict of interest rules. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">RFK Jr. wrote that ACIP has “never recommended against a vaccine—even those which were later withdrawn for safety reasons,&#8221; adding that the panel “failed to scrutinize vaccine products given to babies and pregnant women.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">ACIP is highly influential. The panel meets a few times a year and makes recommendations to the CDC, thereby basically setting the childhood vaccine schedule and other vaccine-related recommendations, like flu shots and COVID vaccines. ACIP also heavily influences which vaccines are covered by both public and private insurance.</span></p>

RFK Jr. Names New Members To Vax Board, Including Critics Of COVID Measures

<p>Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell admitted that his department was &#8220;overwhelmed&#8221; by left-wing rioters in the city, and sparred with liberal council members urging McDonnell to illegally tip them off to incoming federal immigration raids.</p>
<p>McDonnell <a href="https://x.com/TheChiefNerd/status/1931919309229392192" target="_blank" rel="noopener">acknowledged</a> that his department faced significant risk from the rioters during a press conference on Sunday. <span style="font-weight: 400;">“Tonight, we had individuals shooting commercial-grade fireworks at our officers. That can kill you,&#8221; he told reporters. &#8220;We are overwhelmed as far as the number of people out there engaged in this type of activity. &#8230; There is no limit to what they are doing to our officers.&#8221; </span></p>

<p>— Chief Nerd (@TheChiefNerd) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheChiefNerd/status/1931919309229392192?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 9, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Further, on Tuesday, the chief told Los Angeles City Council members that he would absolutely not tip them off to federal raids to deport illegal immigrants.</p>
<p>“You’re asking me to warn you about an enforcement action being taken by another agency before it happens? We can’t do that,” McDonnell responded to Councilmember Imelda Padilla, the Los Angeles Times <a href="https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-06-10/l-a-city-councilmembers-spar-with-police-chief-over-immigration-protests">reported</a>.</p>
<p>The chief said such a tip-off would be obstruction of justice, adding, “That would be completely inappropriate and illegal.&#8221;</p>
<p>City Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson also went after McDonnell, telling him it was wrong to suggest U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) were LAPD “law enforcement partners.”</p>
<p>“If we know somebody is coming here to do warrant-less abductions of the residents of this city, those are not our partners,” Harris-Dawson said. “I don’t care what badge they have on or whose orders they’re under. They’re not our partners.”</p>
<p>Following the meeting, McDonnell emphasized that the LAPD needs to cooperate with the feds on several issues, even if the department doesn&#8217;t on immigration per sanctuary laws.</p>
<p>“All of the crimes we investigate potentially could be in partnership with [federal agencies],” he said. “It is a partnership, and without that partnership, we wouldn’t be able to go into the World Cup, the Olympics &#8230; that require that we work with federal, state and local partners.”</p>
<p>Soon after President Donald Trump was elected in 2024, McDonnell said his department was working with consulate offices for Mexico and other Central American countries to protect illegal immigrants from coming federal deportation raids.</p>
<p>Enforcement of immigration laws would be “undercutting our primary mission, which is to be able to build public trust to work with every member of all of our communities, to be able to have hope that people will come forward if they were a victim of crime, a witness to a crime,” McDonnell <a href="https://spectrumnews1.com/ca/southern-california/politics/2024/12/04/lapd-chief-says-he-will-work-to-protect-immigrants?utm_source=chatgpt.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> the Associated Press at the time.</p>
<p>The chief also took heat from liberal council members for using rubber bullets and making dozens of arrests. Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martínez, for example, told McDonnell, &#8220;We have to be mindful of the tactics being used by some LAPD members that is adding to the escalation.”</p>
<p>“Just like a few protesters can take away from the messaging, the same thing can be said about LAPD. It overshadows the response,” he added.</p>
<p>Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez also accused LAPD officers of acting “out of line for the situation.”</p>

LAPD Chief Admits Cops Were ‘Overwhelmed,’ Spars With Lib Council Members Over Riots, ICE

<p>Arkansas has moved forward with banning the purchases of candy and soda with the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), commonly referred to as food stamps.</p>
<p>Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders was one of the first governors in the nation to submit a waiver to the federal government, asking for approval to limit SNAP. This week, Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins approved the waiver.</p>
<p>“This approval sends a clear message: President Trump and his administration are tackling America’s chronic disease epidemic, and Arkansas stands with him in that fight,” Sanders said of the approval, as first <a href="https://www.dailysignal.com/2025/06/10/exclusive-arkansas-bans-junk-food-food-stamps/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> by The Daily Signal.</p>
<p>“I am incredibly grateful for Secretary Rollins’ quick approval of our waiver. Arkansas leads the nation in getting unhealthy, ultra-processed foods off food stamps and helping our most vulnerable citizens lead healthier lives,” she added.</p>
<p>Rollins has previously said she&#8217;s working closely with Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to advance the &#8220;Make America Healthy Again&#8221; movement. Kennedy, the figurehead of the MAHA movement, has called sugar &#8220;poison,&#8221; led the phasing out of petroleum-based food dyes, and encouraged states to limit SNAP.</p>
<p>Nebraska, another red state, has also been approved by the federal government to limit SNAP purchases to healthier options.</p>
<p>The Daily Wire spoke to Sanders earlier this month about Arkansas becoming a leading state in the MAHA movement. On SNAP limitations, Sanders said it only makes sense.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“It&#8217;s crazy to think that you can use food stamps to purchase soft drinks and candy, but not a hot rotisserie chicken,&#8221; she told The Daily Wire in a video interview. &#8220;The very definition of SNAP, if you look at the second word, it&#8217;s &#8216;nutrition.'&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;There&#8217;s nothing nutritional about candy bars and Cokes,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">So making sure that we are actually helping the people who really need it, and help incentivize healthier choices is something we have to do.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;The food stamp program is a $119 billion federally run program, but about $27 billion of that are spent on candy, soft drinks, and unhealthy desserts and snacks,&#8221; Sanders said. &#8220;So we are literally helping fund the epidemic crisis that we have going on of unhealthy lifestyles in our country, when we&#8217;re supposed to be helping these recipients of the food SNAP program.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;We can and we have to do a better job,&#8221; the Republican added.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> &#8220;I&#8217;m proud of the fact that Arkansas is again leading the way.&#8221; </span></p>

MAHA: Another Republican State Bans Candy, Soda Purchases With Food Stamps

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced on Monday that he’s gutting the panel that advises on vaccination safety and efficacy, arguing that it’s another step toward restoring public trust.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kennedy, whose department has already made <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/cdc-stops-pushing-covid-shots-for-healthy-pregnant-women-children-common-sense">several moves</a> to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hhs-investing-500-million-to-develop-universal-vaccines?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=HHS+Investing+%24500+Million+To+Develop+Universal+Vaccines">shake up</a> vaccination research and recommendations, said he’s “retiring” all 17 members of the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices, known as ACIP.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Today, we are taking a bold step in restoring public trust by totally reconstituting the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP),” RFK <a href="https://www.wsj.com/opinion/rfk-jr-hhs-moves-to-restore-public-trust-in-vaccines-45495112" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal. “We are retiring the 17 current members of the committee, some of whom were last-minute appointees of the Biden administration.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kennedy said he had to remove these panel members or the Trump administration wouldn&#8217;t be able to appoint a majority of new members until 2028.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">RFK Jr. suggested the panel effectively works as a rubber-stamp and is plagued with conflicts of interest.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">ACIP, he highlighted, has never recommended against a vaccination it’s been asked to advise on, even vaccines that were later withdrawn for safety reasons. “It has failed to scrutinize vaccine products given to babies and pregnant women,” he wrote.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“To make matters worse, the groups that inform ACIP meet behind closed doors, violating the legal and ethical principle of transparency crucial to maintaining public trust,” RFK said.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kennedy cited a 2000 investigation that found </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">enforcement of ACIP conflict-of-interest rules were “weak to nonexistent.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Committee members regularly participated in deliberations and advocated products in which they had a financial stake,” he wrote. “The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) issued conflict-of-interest waivers to every committee member.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Citing a 2009 HHS inspector general report, Kennedy added that not all committee members completed full conflict-of-interest forms, and of the ones who did, it was found that 97% of the forms had omissions. Additionally, the CDC – which is the agency ACIP passes along its recommendations to – “took no significant action to remedy the omissions.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“The public must know that unbiased science guides the recommendations from our health agencies,” Kennedy said. “This will ensure the American people receive the safest vaccines possible.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>As previously reported by <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hhs-investing-500-million-to-develop-universal-vaccines?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=HHS+Investing+%24500+Million+To+Develop+Universal+Vaccines" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire</a>, HHS, under Kennedy&#8217;s leadership, is investing half a billion dollars into a project that seeks to develop universal vaccinations for numerous viruses, called &#8220;Generation Gold Standard.&#8221;</p>
<p>Moreover, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kennedys-cdc-to-reportedly-study-potential-link-between-vaccines-and-autism?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Kennedy’s+CDC+To+Reportedly+Study+Potential+Link+Between+Vaccines+And+Autism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CDC is studying the sharp rise in autism rates</a>, which reportedly includes research on whether there&#8217;s any link between vaccinations and the rise in autism.</p>
<p>And, last month, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/cdc-stops-pushing-covid-shots-for-healthy-pregnant-women-children-common-sense">CDC rescinded guidance</a> that pregnant women and children should receive a vaccine against COVID. “I couldn’t be more pleased to announce that, as of today, the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC recommended immunization schedule,” RFK said at the time.</p>
