This harrowing situation raises serious questions about the priorities of local leaders and their willingness to protect their citizens.

Now, just as Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has made it clear that her state will refuse to collaborate with President Trump’s federal immigration efforts upon his return to office, we see these disturbing arrests unfold.

One suspect arrested is 21-year-old Mynor Stiven De Paz-Munoz from Guatemala. He stands accused not only of forcibly raping a child but was also released by local authorities despite ICE’s detainer request meant to ensure he would face federal custody.

“Mynor Stiven De Paz-Munoz stands accused of horrifically victimizing a Massachusetts child and represents a significant threat to our neighborhoods,” Patricia H. Hyde, acting ERO Boston Field Office Director, said.

De Paz-Munoz entered the U.S. on September 24, 2020, near Eagle Pass, Texas—yet he was allowed back into society before facing any consequences for his actions after authorities ignored federal requests.

The second arrest involves 42-year-old Billy Erney Buitrago-Bustos from Colombia who was taken into custody for allegedly committing even more heinous acts against children: statutory rape and aggravated rape among them.

“Billy Erney Buitrago-Bustos stands accused of the most heinous and reprehensible of crimes,” Hyde said.

Despite failing to leave under visa terms since arriving at JFK International Airport in New York back in May 2016—and now facing grave charges—local law enforcement still seems hesitant when it comes to enforcing immigration laws effectively amid rising crime rates involving illegal immigrants like him.

“We thank our law enforcement partners at the Berkshire County Jail and House of Correction for prioritizing public safety and protecting children in the communities they were appointed to serve,” Hyde said.

Then we have Alexandre Romao De Oliveira—a foreign fugitive wanted for his conviction related to child rape back home in Brazil who entered America without proper admission procedures on April 16th last year. He managed slip through unnoticed until recently when taken down by ICE agents while hiding out in Methuen, MA

“Alexandre Romao De Oliveira is a convicted child rapist who fled his home country to evade justice,” Hyde said.

This individual’s evasion highlights severe flaws within current immigration practices that allow criminals safe harbor, penalizing innocent citizens through lax policies driven by political agendas rather than genuine security concerns—an outright travesty if there ever was one!

“Enhancing public safety starts with cooperation between law enforcement partners.”

President Trump’s policies will make millions of Americans safer than they are today. But in states like Massachusetts where woke Democrats rule, will federal authorities be hindered? We’ll learn more after President Trump is inaugurated and his policies are put in place.

US Embassy in Kyiv Shuts Over ‘Potential Significant Air Attack’ https://truthbasedmedia.com/us-embassy-in-kyiv-shuts-over-potential-significant-air-attack/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/us-embassy-in-kyiv-shuts-over-potential-significant-air-attack/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:26:55 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/us-embassy-in-kyiv-shuts-over-potential-significant-air-attack/ (The Epoch Times)—The United States closed its embassy in Kyiv on Nov. 20 and warned American citizens in Ukraine to be ready to swiftly seek shelter after receiving “specific information of a potential significant air attack.”

“Out of an abundance of caution, the Embassy will be closed, and Embassy employees are being instructed to shelter in place,” a statement published on the embassy’s official website stated.

The embassy also urged Americans in Ukraine to follow the directions of Ukrainian officials and first responders in the event of an emergency and to monitor local media.

The Italian and Greek embassies in Kyiv also shut to the public for the day. The British government said that its embassy in the city remained open.

The warning comes a day after Russia’s Ministry of Defense reported that Ukraine used U.S.-made long-range Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) to strike its territory.

Russia’s Ministry of Defense said Russian forces shot down five of six missiles fired at a military facility in the Bryansk region.

Fragments from one of the missiles hit the military facility, causing a fire that was quickly extinguished and caused no casualties or damage, according to the ministry.

“According to confirmed data, U.S.-made ATACMS [Army Tactical Missile Systems] … have been used,” the defense ministry said in a statement.

The White House has not yet confirmed whether Ukraine has been authorized to use U.S. weapons against targets in Russia, however, anonymous U.S. officials who spoke to media outlets said Biden authorized Ukraine to use the missiles to strike targets in Russia.

Biden, who is set to leave office in two months, has previously been opposed to the idea of allowing U.S. missiles to be used deep inside Russia.

Moscow has repeatedly warned that such a move by the United States would be tantamount to direct involvement in the conflict and would trigger a response.

Putin Updates Nuclear Doctrine

Russian President Putin signed an updated nuclear doctrine on Nov. 19, lowering the threshold for using nuclear weapons. The updated doctrine now states that an attack on Russia by any nation using conventional missiles supplied by a nuclear power will be considered a joint attack on Russia.

Following the move, the White House said it has no plans to adjust its nuclear posture in response to Russia’s actions.

“As we said earlier this month, we were not surprised by Russia’s announcement that it would update its nuclear doctrine; Russia had been signaling its intent to update its doctrine for several weeks,” the White House National Security Council said in a statement.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Nov. 18 accused the Biden administration of “adding fuel to the fire” and “provoking further escalation.”

“President Putin has already explained it very simply. Ukraine does not carry out these strikes. After all, the strikes are carried out by those countries that give permission, because the Ukrainian military does not acquire the targets and provide the maintenance,” Peskov said. “This is done by military specialists from these Western countries, and this fundamentally changes the modality of their involvement in the conflict. This is the danger and the provocative nature of this situation.”

Earlier this month, Washington accused Russia of attempting to escalate the conflict by deploying more than 10,000 soldiers from North Korea to eastern Russia.

At the time, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned what he called a lack of response from Western allies over the move.

The Ukrainian leader has not yet commented on the alleged use of U.S.-made long-range missiles in Russia but he said during a joint press conference, alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in Kyiv earlier this week, that Ukraine has “long-range capabilities, including domestically produced drones, the Neptune (cruise missile), and now ATACMS.”

Zelenskyy added that Ukraine “will use all of these.”

Is the Deep State Intentionally Risking Nuclear War to Save Its Criminals’ Skins? https://truthbasedmedia.com/is-the-deep-state-intentionally-risking-nuclear-war-to-save-its-criminals-skins/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/is-the-deep-state-intentionally-risking-nuclear-war-to-save-its-criminals-skins/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:21:27 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/is-the-deep-state-intentionally-risking-nuclear-war-to-save-its-criminals-skins/ If you’re reading the headlines, you know that whoever is still running this country via the frayed sock puppets of “Joe Biden” and “Kamala Harris” is escalating violent conflict with Russia. In fact, the “Biden” administration just approved the use of long-range U.S. missiles to hit Russian cities. This is in service of a war we never declared, where no vital U.S. interests are involved, and a compromise peace settlement lies just around the corner with Donald Trump’s arrival in the White House.

The Mirror in Great Britain reports:

WW3 fears as Sweden tells citizens to prepare for nuclear war and stockpile food and water

Sweden has issued five million pamphlets warning its citizens to stockpile food and water — just hours after Volodymyr Zelensky’s chilling video address to Vladimir Putin warned US missile strikes “will speak for themselves.”

The government in Stockholm has updated its “If crisis or war comes” document from six years ago because of the “worsening security situation” following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. It comes just as Washington has given the green light for US-missiles to be used to strike inside Russian territory for the first time.

Trump knows what’s up: that the architects of stupid wars against whom he has been fighting since the 2016 campaign won’t let go of the nuclear football until somebody pries it from their cold, dead fingers. In a video statement broadcast at Infowars, Trump said, “We have never been closer to World War III than we are today.”

Oceania Has Always Been at War with Eurasia

Every generation of Americans now alive considers it only natural for the U.S. to be confronting and arming itself against Russia. You’d think this was some ancient rivalry going back centuries, like the tension between Japan and China, or the Muslim world and Christendom.

What if we told you that this rivalry was in fact a weird accident of history, with pretty shallow roots, whose real reason for being vanished long ago? That the confrontation between the two countries only made sense between 1945 and 1990, and all the tension and threat of mutually assured destruction since then has been the fruit of a profoundly corrupt establishment funded by a money-hungry defense industry and the venal hacks inside both political parties who serve it?

Millions Of Swedes Receive ‘How To Survive War’ Booklet From Government https://truthbasedmedia.com/millions-of-swedes-receive-how-to-survive-war-booklet-from-government/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/millions-of-swedes-receive-how-to-survive-war-booklet-from-government/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:19:55 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/millions-of-swedes-receive-how-to-survive-war-booklet-from-government/ On Monday the government of Sweden began issuing pamphlets advising its population on how to survive an unexpected disastrous war scenario, at a moment tensions are on edge with Russia, and after weekend reports saying the Biden administration has authorized Ukraine to conduct long-range missile strikes on Russian territory using US-supplied weapon system.

Millions of Swedes are receiving the directives, entitled “in case of crisis of war” – which is an updated version of something the Swedish government issued six years ago. But now things are very different, given there is a hot war in Eastern Europe, and given Sweden is NATO’s newest member state. It’s all about being able to survive for a few days or a week, and imagines something like a shock invasion by a foreign hostile power.

The newly updated booklet is said to be twice the size as the one that was issued in the last decade. The other new NATO member, Finland, has also issued its own guidelines to the Finnish population on “preparing for incidents and crisis”. The warnings document how to cope with not just war-time situations where basic services and infrastructure may go offline, but how to survive extreme weather events as well.

According to the BBC, the Swedish pamphlet reflects the new realities of Stockholm having abandoned its historic post-WW2 neutrality:

For Swedes, the idea of a civil emergency booklet is nothing new. The first edition of “If War Comes” was produced during World War Two and it was updated during the Cold War.

But one message has been moved up from the middle of the booklet: “If Sweden is attacked by another country, we will never give up. All information to the effect that resistance is to cease is false.” […]

AG Merrick Garland Urges Prosecutors to Protect DOJ’s Mission After Leaving Office https://truthbasedmedia.com/ag-merrick-garland-urges-prosecutors-to-protect-dojs-mission-after-leaving-office/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/ag-merrick-garland-urges-prosecutors-to-protect-dojs-mission-after-leaving-office/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:19:11 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/ag-merrick-garland-urges-prosecutors-to-protect-dojs-mission-after-leaving-office/ Attorney General Merrick Garland on Monday urged prosecutors to protect the Department of Justice’s (DOJ’s) “mission,” in his first remarks since President-elect Donald Trump announced his selection for attorney general under his incoming administration.

Speaking at the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, Garland was giving a farewell speech to officials at the office as the nation’s top federal prosecutor.

“I may be coming to the end of my tenure at the Justice Department, but I know that all of you will continue in the department’s mission—what has always been its mission—to uphold the rule of law, to keep our country safe, and to protect civil rights,” Garland said.

“The career lawyers of the Justice Department as a whole, you are the institutional backbone of this department. You are the historical memory of this department. You are the heart and soul of the department. You are the Justice Department.

“I could not be more proud of you, and I could not be more grateful for all of the work that you have done to protect the American people.” […]

The Senators Who Will Vote On RFK Jr. Have Raked In Millions From The Pharmaceutical Industry https://truthbasedmedia.com/the-senators-who-will-vote-on-rfk-jr-have-raked-in-millions-from-the-pharmaceutical-industry/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/the-senators-who-will-vote-on-rfk-jr-have-raked-in-millions-from-the-pharmaceutical-industry/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:17:24 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/the-senators-who-will-vote-on-rfk-jr-have-raked-in-millions-from-the-pharmaceutical-industry/ Stocks for the food and pharmaceutical industries plummeted Friday immediately upon President-elect Donald Trump’s nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

If confirmed as head of HHS, Kennedy will oversee a nearly $2 trillion department responsible for the administration of federal health insurance programs in addition to regulatory agencies governing food and medicine. HHS holds jurisdiction over the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), making HHS a primary recruitment ground for the pharmaceutical companies’ revolving doors of influence. Kennedy, who ran for president and then campaigned for Trump as a chief antagonist of Big Pharma, has the industry bracing for generational changes threatening Wall Street’s bottom line.

Lawmakers on the Senate Finance Committee, however, will vote first on Kennedy’s nomination after raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars in contributions from the pharmaceutical industry now concerned about Kennedy’s plans to gut predatory advertising practices and eliminate taxpayer subsidies.

While most Republican senators have remained largely silent on how they might vote on Kennedy’s confirmation, pharmaceutical lobbyists are almost certainly calling lawmakers after drug money lined campaign coffers of both parties.

According to a Federalist analysis of industry donations to members of the Senate Finance Committee compiled by OpenSecrets, pharmaceutical companies contributed more than $6.7 million between 2019 and 2024 to lawmakers who will determine whether Kennedy gets a full vote by the upper chamber. Republican senators took more than twice as much industry money, though five members were excluded from The Federalist’s analysis because two lost their recent races, two are retiring, and one, Sen. George Helmy of New Jersey, was appointed just a little over two months ago. […]

Former Disney Animator Sentenced to 25 Years for Sex Trafficking, Child Pornography https://truthbasedmedia.com/former-disney-animator-sentenced-to-25-years-for-sex-trafficking-child-pornography/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/former-disney-animator-sentenced-to-25-years-for-sex-trafficking-child-pornography/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:16:47 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/former-disney-animator-sentenced-to-25-years-for-sex-trafficking-child-pornography/ PARIS (LifeSiteNews) – A former Disney/Pixar and Dreamworks animator was sentenced to 25 years in a French prison on sex trafficking, child rape, and child pornography charges for availing himself of websites through which he remotely directed the sexual assault of children as young as two years old for his own amusement.

French newspaper Le Monde reported that 59-year-old Bolhem Bouchib, whose credits include work on Lilo & Stitch, both Incredibles films, Ratatouille, and last year’s Elemental, was found guilty of paying Filipino women to rape and abuse Filipino girls averaging between the ages of five and 10 for him to view on the internet over the course of nearly a decade, paying as much as $1,000 per livestream between 2012 and 2021.

On one side, “you have the graphic designer who amazes children (…) then on the court side, Bohlem Bouchib is a pedophile director who writes his own films of’ horror,” advocate general Philippe Courroye said. Bouchib had confessed to his “horrible” and “disgusting” crimes, but his defense argued he should be shown leniency in light of his supposed “psychological evolution” since his 2021 arrest.

Babel added that, in addition to serving his sentence and paying restitution to the victims, Bouchib will be barred from working with children upon his eventual release and be closely monitored for another 20 years.

This is not Bouchib’s first offense of this nature; in 2014 he was placed on the French sex offender registry for molesting the eight-year-old daughter of his then-partner, although he only served two years’ probation. […]

U.S. Corporations Love Abortion Tourism Because It Means They Don’t Have to Pay for Parenthood https://truthbasedmedia.com/u-s-corporations-love-abortion-tourism-because-it-means-they-dont-have-to-pay-for-parenthood/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/u-s-corporations-love-abortion-tourism-because-it-means-they-dont-have-to-pay-for-parenthood/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:16:21 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/u-s-corporations-love-abortion-tourism-because-it-means-they-dont-have-to-pay-for-parenthood/ Businesses talk about the importance of family but often treat children as either a burden to be discarded or as optional luxury goods.

Big business has a baby problem. Specifically, many of America’s largest corporations have a problem with babies and therefore with working parents — especially working mothers.

Alexandra DeSanctis and I recently published a report for the Ethics and Public Policy Center documenting the family policies of the Fortune 100. We found that about half of these corporate behemoths champion abortion for their employees; after the Dobbs decision, they made a point of announcing that their employee health care plans will cover abortion tourism for workers who live in states that restrict ending human lives in utero.

No doubt many more companies quietly cover the costs of travel for abortion as part of standardized health care plans. But the corporations touting abortion tourism as a major benefit are sending a message to their employees: Babies are hazardous to your lifestyle, your career, and our bottom line.

Such enthusiastic corporate support for abortion suggests a C-suite culture that would rather pay for abortions than cover the costs of workers having babies. There is the implicit premise that babies are a potential problem to be managed rather than persons to be welcomed and that workers (especially women) need to carefully time having babies to optimize their careers (and, of course, the company’s profits).

A Sovereign United States Must Oppose the World Health Organization and Combat Human Exploitation in Healthcare https://truthbasedmedia.com/a-sovereign-united-states-must-oppose-the-world-health-organization-and-combat-human-exploitation-in-healthcare/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/a-sovereign-united-states-must-oppose-the-world-health-organization-and-combat-human-exploitation-in-healthcare/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:15:47 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/a-sovereign-united-states-must-oppose-the-world-health-organization-and-combat-human-exploitation-in-healthcare/ (Natural News)—Since 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) has become a flagship for the worst kinds of bureaucratic tyranny. The WHO has done nothing but promulgate propaganda and trample on the sovereignty of nations, while covering up the vaccine holocaust that was mandated on the world. Not only has the WHO wreaked havoc on global health, but they have also exacerbated discrimination and segregation with their vaccine passport proposals, while ramping up bio-terror and medical fraud with PCR testing mandates, and mass quarantines that lack evidence and due process.

The WHO’s actions during the COVID-19 scandal, driven by corporate interests, have led to an unprecedented assault on individual liberties and societal well-being. Individualized treatment was ditched for a one-size-fits all set of public health mandates that exacerbated human suffering. However, merely ending a relationship with WHO does not do anyone justice. A sovereign United States must go to war with the World Health Organization and fight back against an insidious global health industry and biosecurity state that thrives on power, profit and human exploitation.

Dismantling the WHO is just the beginning; we must confront the biosecurity state in domestic healthcare systems

While disentangling from the WHO may feel like a victory, it is a hollow one unless it is part of a broader overhaul of the entire global public health infrastructure that thrives on hysteria, fraud and unlawful mandates. The WHO is but a cog in a machine that values corporate profits and political control over the health and dignity of ordinary people. It is a tool of biosecurity agendas and profit-driven policies. Simply leaving the WHO will not end this toxic system. This toxic system of human exploitation is embedded into Western healthcare. We need to break away from predatory vaccine experimentation and infectious disease fearmongering, and find an exit strategy from the entire corrupt public health industry.

In 2020, the WHO didn’t just fail the world — it became an active participant facilitating medical fraud, medical error and wrongful death. At the behest of wealthy sponsors and political elites, the organization oversaw policies that disproportionately affected the most vulnerable populations. The behemoth pushed for lockdowns that decimated economies, exacerbated poverty and pushed millions more into food insecurity. The WHO’s reckless actions forced children out of school, denied medical care to those with non-COVID-related ailments and deepened the debt crises of developing nations. Perhaps most egregiously, the organization facilitated an unconscionable transfer of wealth from the most disadvantaged to the pharmaceutical and corporate elites.

This wasn’t an unfortunate mistake — it was a calculated, intentional response to a manufactured crisis. Instead of focusing on protecting the most vulnerable, the WHO facilitated a global power grab, censoring dissent and offering unprecedented privileges to its corporate sponsors. Fostering a climate of fear and control, the WHO set the stage for future exploitation. The result? A generation of young people with stolen opportunities, impoverished nations saddled with insurmountable debt, billions of dollars in profit funneled to pharmaceutical giants and a holocaust ignored.

The WHO’s failure isn’t just a case of poor leadership or bad decisions — it’s a reflection of deep-rooted structural corruption. The organization’s original mission, established in 1946, was to ensure health equity and protect the world’s most vulnerable. But over time, it has become a grotesque shadow of that ideal. Its executives, insulated by lavish salaries and funded by the very corporations it claims to regulate, are increasingly detached from the people they were supposed to serve. This corruption is not incidental — it is intrinsic to the WHO’s very existence.

Davos elite will continue to threaten human freedom and health, while pretending to keep people safe

It is a tragic farce to watch WHO leaders attend elite summits in Davos while millions around the world suffer from the totalitarian policies they impose. These elites are not working for the global population — they are working for the interests of multinational corporations, international finance and the political elites who profit from a system of global control.

Take, for example, the WHO’s recent push to amend the International Health Regulations (IHR) under the guise of pandemic preparedness. These amendments, championed by corporate interests and political elites, would give the WHO even more sweeping powers to dictate national health policies during future crises. The WHO, once a facilitator of global health equity, has become an instrument for a biosecurity agenda that prioritizes global control and private profits over the health and freedom of individuals.

The WHO’s hand is forced by the pharmaceutical industry and the wealthy figures who look to capitalize from vaccine investments. The more money these companies pump into the organization, the more influence they wield over its policies. And the results are devastating. The WHO’s advisory guidelines on things like abortion, gender identity, vaccine skepticism and climate change reflect this unholy alliance. Its push for universal abortion access up until birth, no questions asked, and its endorsement of extreme gender ideology, show a stunning disregard for biological truth and basic human dignity.

The WHO is merely one part of a much larger, systemic problem. The global health industry, in which the WHO plays a pivotal role, is increasingly dominated by a commodity-based approach that uses healthcare as a weapon. Market exclusivity and other profit motives restrict access to healthcare. A corrupt insurance industry eliminates alternative, holistic and individualized approaches to healthcare and stops the progression of healing modalities from being accepted. From Big Pharma to the private donors funding international health initiatives, this industry is driven by the bottom line — whether that means selling dangerous vaccines, controlling supply chains or pushing austerity measures on poor nations. To reform healthcare and restore trust in medical professionals, WHO must be dismantled and its sordid influences must be removed from every healthcare systems.

Lawmakers Target Security Clearances of 51 Intel Officials for Claims That Sparked Hunter Biden Censorship https://truthbasedmedia.com/lawmakers-target-security-clearances-of-51-intel-officials-for-claims-that-sparked-hunter-biden-censorship/ https://truthbasedmedia.com/lawmakers-target-security-clearances-of-51-intel-officials-for-claims-that-sparked-hunter-biden-censorship/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 13:13:27 +0000 https://truthbasedmedia.com/target/lawmakers-target-security-clearances-of-51-intel-officials-for-claims-that-sparked-hunter-biden-censorship/ A group of 51 former intelligence officials who previously cast doubt on the authenticity of Hunter Biden’s laptop by labeling it as potential “Russian disinformation” and causing it to be censored across social media platforms, are now facing the possibility of having their security clearances revoked. This move is being considered by Republican lawmakers, aligning with a promise from Vice President-elect J.D. Vance to hold those who mislead the public accountable.

Vance, addressing the issue, stated, “You cannot lie, take your position of public trust, and lie to the American people for political purposes. It’s disgraceful. And people have to suffer consequences for it.”

The issue stems from a controversial period before the 2020 presidential election when the 51 signatories endorsed a narrative suggesting Russian involvement in the release of the laptop’s contents.

Initially, when the New York Post broke the story in October 2020, Twitter took the extraordinary step of blocking links to the article, preventing users from sharing it on their feeds. Twitter justified its action by referencing its policy against distributing hacked material and Russian disinformation, though it later acknowledged that its communication about the decision could have been clearer. This action led to a public outcry, including from policymakers who accused the platform of partisan bias and suppressing information.

Facebook also intervened. The platform chose to cut the story’s visibility. […]
