News they don't want you to see

January 18, 2024

After dedicating 25 years to the mainstream media, I've decided to forge a new path. Starting every weekday morning at 7 a.m., I'll be sending out this email that shows the untold stories—those that CNN and your nightly news might overlook.

I aim to provide a fresh perspective and share insights that often go unnoticed in the mainstream narrative. Join me on this journey as we explore the news beyond the headlines and foster a deeper understanding of the world.

NEWS THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE

LANSING, MICH - The Michigan Christian Homeschool Network says it obtained a letter from the Michigan Department of Education to Michigan lawmakers that calls on them to create a bill requiring every student (Including private school and homeschool students) in Michigan to be tracked annually by a government database.

DES MOINES, IA - Former President Donald Trump insisted that NBC and CNN grievously erred by not airing his Iowa Caucus victory speech — even though they did, just not in total — and should suffer a heavy penalty as a result.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - When Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) was elected to his current position in October, he said his elevation to the third-highest position in the United States was because “God is the one who raises up those in authority.” On Wednesday, a reporter asked Johnson if the election of President Joe Biden “was God’s will.”

SAN FRANCISCO — The FBI wants to warn parents, caregivers, teachers and children of a threat of online activity that may lead offenders to coerce minors to create and send sexually explicit images or videos and extort the victims to send more or to send money, called “sextortion.”

SACRAMENTO, CALIF - California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) has promised to veto a California bill that bans youth tackle football.

Assembly Bill 734 would ban youth sports organizations from letting children 6 or younger play tackle football beginning next year. In 2027, the bill would raise the age on the ban to 10, and in 2029, it would raise it to 12.

AUSTRIA - An Austrian man who locked his daughter in a basement for 24 years and fathered seven children with her could apply for early release — 15 years after he was sentenced to life in prison for those crimes, according to Reuters.

Josef Fritzl, now 88, was sentenced to life in prison in 2009 after pleading guilty in Austrian court to incest, rape, coercion, false imprisonment and enslavement, along with negligent homicide in the death of one of his infant sons.

NEW YORK — The New York City Police Department is searching for a suspect they say is responsible for a series of unprovoked stabbings in Queens.

On Wednesday, Police Commissioner Edward Caban and other NYPD executives briefed the media on an ongoing manhunt

LONDON - The United Nations’ healthcare agency — the World Health Organization (W.H.O) — will not craft transgender healthcare guidelines for minors, citing “limited” evidence for longer-term outcomes.

NEW YORK, NY - Federal prosecutors said Hunter Biden's claims that he is the victim of a vindictive prosecution in his Delaware gun case were "absurd."

President Joe Biden's son has cast himself as the victim in the case, blaming his father's political rivals and former President Donald Trump for his situation. Similar to Trump, Hunter Biden has continued to claim the government is out to get him for political reasons.

AFGHANISTAN - A newly discovered giant dinosaur species may be the closest relative of Tyrannosaurus rex, and could even represent the moment that the genus experimented with a huge body.

The new species was recently described in the journal Scientific Reports by paleontologist Sebastian Dalman and his colleagues. It was a mighty carnivore that lived in North America around five million years before T. rex.

INDIA - They breed anger and derision; they cause annoyance, discomfort, and even expensive repairs, but India’s famous potholes actually saved a life on Friday.

The ‘late’ Darshan Singh Brar was being transported to the Indian version of a wake after his untimely death from a chest infection at the age of 80

HAWTHORNE, CALIF - California father of five was shot to death this week when he stopped to get a burger on his way home from work.

Loved ones identified the victim in Wednesday morning’s fatal shooting outside a Hawthorne, California, fast food stop as 57-year-old Eddie McAllister, according to KNBC-TV.

NASHVILLE, TN - An SUV got stuck in the snow in central Tennessee this week amid a large snowstorm but was later helped out of the snowbank by an Amish man on a horse-drawn carriage.

In a video posted by NBC's Nashville affiliate WSMV, a white SUV can be seen parked over the edge of an embankment in the tiny town of Ethridge as several people attach ropes connecting the vehicle and the horses.

DEL RIO, TX - A new report by a conservative immigration group into the ongoing surge in Venezuelan migration at the southern border finds that the crisis has been sparked by U.S. policy as much as it is by economic conditions.

Michigan House Bill 5711, which would roll back the state’s clean energy mandates for utilities, has cleared the House Energy Committee and is headed to the full House for a vote. If approved there, it would move to the Senate for consideration.

🚨The Village of Birch Run, Michigan doesn’t record or live stream their public meetings. They’re not legally required to, but I think it would be something good to do for transparency. I talked to the village president who did not want to touch the issue.
