FBI Arrests Multiple Jihadis In Potential Halloween Weekend Plot

By William Teach November 1, 2025 – 10:30 am

One would think this would be bigger news, but, most outlets are ignoring it or burying it low

Multiple people arrested in Michigan in a Halloween weekend attack plot, FBI director says

Multiple people who had been allegedly plotting a violent attack over the Halloween weekend were arrested Friday in Michigan, FBI Director Kash Patel said in a social media post.

The law enforcement effort was focused on suburban Detroit. Patel said more information would be released later.

Investigators believe the plot was inspired by Islamic State extremism and are investigating whether those in custody were potentially radicalized online, according to two people briefed on the investigation who could not publicly discuss details. They spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

FBI and state police vehicles were in a neighborhood near Fordson High School in Dearborn. People wearing shirts marked FBI walked in and out of a house, including one person who collected paper bags and other items from an evidence truck.

The investigation involved discussion in an online chatroom involving at least some of the suspects who were taken into custody, people familiar with the investigation told AP. The group had discussed carrying out an attack around Halloween, referring to “pumpkin day,” according to one of the people. The other person briefed on the investigation confirmed that there had been a “pumpkin” reference.

It wasn’t immediately clear if the group had the means to carry out an attack, but the reference to Halloween prompted the FBI to make arrests Friday, one of the people said.

I wonder how many of them were let in during the Biden administration, and were not vetted? Or how many were let in previously, just adding to the extremist population which we should have known better post 9/11? There’s a reason it is called Dearbornistan. Which is not necessarily fair, because many have been there a long time and have assimilated. But, there are plenty who haven’t.

Trump Admin Sending Low Level Flunkies To COP30

By William Teach November 1, 2025 – 7:15 am

It would be funny as hell if they all traveled to COP30 in Brazil by low carbon means, such as a sailing ship, then used an EV, rather than the long, fossil fueled flights and big SUVs that the other 40K+ will be taking

Trump won’t send ‘high level’ officials to climate conference

The U.S. won’t be sending any “high level” representatives to this year’s United Nations climate summit, a White House official told The Hill on Friday.

The summit, known as COP30, will be held in Brazil next month. Traditionally at such meetings, nations discuss their plans for climate action, unveil climate-related initiatives and seek to negotiate global climate agreements.

The official noted that President Trump is working directly on international energy issues with leaders, including in recent trade deals.

The administration’s move not to participate in the summit is not necessarily a surprise. Trump and many of his Cabinet officials have sought to downplay the impacts of climate change and roll back regulations, including the 2009 determination that climate change poses a threat to public health.

Oh, well. I guess a whole bunch of the people who think they are high muckety mucks in the bureaucracy won’t be getting free vacations to Brazil.

White Liberal Woman Judge Blocks Order Requiring Proof Of Citizenship

By William Teach November 1, 2025 – 7:00 am

But, really, per the Supreme Court ruling, WLW judge’s order cannot go beyond her district

US judge permanently blocks Trump order requiring voters to prove citizenship

A federal judge on Friday permanently blocked part of an executive order from Republican U.S. President Donald Trump, ruling that the president cannot require voters to show passports or similar documents as proof of citizenship before voting.

Several lawsuits have challenged the president’s March 25 executive order, a sweeping order aimed at overhauling federal elections, and courts had already temporarily blocked it from going into effect. U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly in Washington, D.C., was the first to reach a final ruling against the executive order.

Kollar-Kotelly permanently blocked the part of the executive order that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote. The judge had previously declined to block the part of the executive order that would bar states from counting mail-in ballots received after Election Day.

The ruling came in response to lawsuits by groups including the Democratic National Committee, the League of United Latin American Citizens and the League of Women Voters Education Fund.

Knowing the history, Judge WLM will see her ruling overturned, even with

Kollar-Kotelly found that part of the order was illegal because the U.S. Constitution gives states, not the president, the power to oversee elections.

But, Los Federales set some of the terms for federal elections. Really, all the left wants to do is make it easier for non-citizens to vote.

Climahypocrite Harrison Ford Calls Trump Greatest Criminal In History

By William Teach October 31, 2025 – 5:31 pm

Pol Pot? Hitlet? Stalin? Mao?

Harrison Ford Slams Trump on Climate: ‘I Don’t Know of a Greater Criminal in History’

Harrison Ford slammed the Trump administration and their lack of policies to combat climate change in a new interview.

Speaking to the Guardian, Ford — a vocal critic of Donald Trump — expressed concern about the future of the environment, especially in the aftermath of the Los Angeles area wildfires that impacted thousands of Californians, including himself.

“[Trump] doesn’t have any policies, he has whims. It scares the shit out of me,” Ford said. “The ignorance, the hubris, the lies, the perfidy. [Trump] knows better, but he’s an instrument of the status quo and he’s making money, hand over fist, while the world goes to hell in a hand basket. It’s unbelievable. I don’t know of a greater criminal in history.”

Uh huh

Harrison was also giving the interview while in Chicago. How’d he get there?

Here Come The Warnings Of THC Infused Halloween Candy

By William Teach October 31, 2025 – 10:30 am

Does this really happen?

Law enforcement warning parents of possible THC-laced candies ahead of trick-or-treating

As children and teens prepare for trick-or-treating on Friday night, law enforcement is warning parents of a disturbing trend involving candy being laced with THC products.

During their final formal meeting in September, some of the state’s top elected officials said they were concerned that THC-laced candies, cookies and other treats were mimicking packaging similar to popular snacks, like Oreos.

“It’s ‘Stoneo,’ with a picture of an Oreo on it,” Secretary of State Elaine Marshall said as she passed them around the table during a meeting with the state’s top elected official in September.

“For the logo for Nabisco, it’s ‘Dabisco.’ The problem is, these are geared toward children. It’s an adult product.”

Detective Bailey Bertolani with the Sampson County Sheriff’s Office said the candies on the surface look normal, but there is labeling that notifies people that it is, in fact, a THC product.

Let me ask, is anyone going to be giving their pot treats out? They aren’t cheap. Considerably more than regular candy. I suppose someone stoned to the gills could make the mistake occasionally, but, doubtful.

If they end up in a candy supply, some of them could be deadly to a child going from house to house to get candy. While authorities say there have been no reports of the trend in North Carolina between their meeting in September and Thursday, they are asking parents to remain aware.

“I would recommend to just look over your kid’s candy,” Bertolani said. “If it’s not in a known sealed package, throw it away. Contact your local law enforcement agency.”

Can they report on how many times this has actually happened?

While none have been found during this Halloween season, a study published in a medical journal from the American Academy of Pediatrics found reports of children aged 6 and under consuming THC went up “1,375%” between 2017 and 2019, exploding from 200 cases to more than 3,000.

Yeah, kids might grab it at home (adults should keep that stuff locked up like a firearm when kids are around), but, no one is giving it out at Halloween. Please stop the scaremongering.

Climate Doom And Tariffs Are Causing Halloween Candy Prices To Rise Or Something

By William Teach October 31, 2025 – 7:15 am

I was waiting for a Hotcoldwetdry and Halloween piece to show up, very light this year

Halloween candy prices rising, spooked by Trump’s tariffs and climate change

Ghosts and goblins might not be the only scary things popping up this Halloween. Prices for the holiday’s most popular candy treats are rising, spooked by Donald Trump’s tariffs and climate change.

Candy prices are estimated to increase by 10.8% this year, according to new analysis from progressive groups the Century Foundation and the Groundwork Collaborative, with some popular chocolate-based treats seeing price upticks of at least 20%. The price increases could mean popular candy like Tootsie Rolls and Hershey’s chocolate and variety packs are a few dollars more expensive than just a year ago.

Chocolate candies are especially at risk of higher prices because of a years-long cocoa shortage that has caused the price of cocoa to triple over the last few years. Climate-related rain and damage to cocoa crops in west Africa – the biggest exporter of cocoa beans – have caused cocoa to peak at more than $12,000 per ton in 2024. Though prices have since gone down to about $6,000 per ton, they are still much higher than prices seen in 2020, when cocoa was $2,300 per ton.

The rising price of cocoa is only one part of the story on candy prices. Donald Trump has placed tariffs on the biggest exporters of chocolate to the US. Imports from the Ivory Coast, the largest producer of cocoa, are taxed with a 21% tariff. Ecuador, the second-largest producer, faces a 15% tariff.

Oh, you mean when the COVID lockdowns and such caused things to spike? But, you know, this is the fault of Trump and ‘climate change’. As for tariffs, perhaps those countries could remove their tariffs on US goods.

Of course, what they don’t want to mention is all constant price increase from Bidenflation during his years. Of course not.

Illinois Governor Asks DHS To Pause Immigration Arrests During Halloween

By William Teach October 31, 2025 – 7:00 am

Can you guess what the response was?

Noem rejects Illinois Gov. Pritzker’s request to pause immigration actions over Halloween weekend

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Thursday flatly rejected a request by Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker to suspend immigration enforcements in the Chicago area until after Halloween.

Pritzker cited children’s safety and an incident from Saturday in which Customs and Border Protection agents deployed tear gas in a neighborhood where kids were preparing for a Halloween parade.

In turning down the request, Noem also cited children’s safety.

“We’re absolutely not willing to put on pause any work that we will do to keep communities safe,” Noem said at a news conference in Gary, Indiana, on Thursday. “The fact that Gov. Pritzker is asking for that is shameful and, I think, unfortunate that he doesn’t recognize how important the work is that we do to make sure we’re bringing criminals to justice and getting them off our streets, especially when we’re going to send all of our kiddos out on the streets and going to events and enjoying the holiday season.”

Perhaps JB should have ordered Illinois law enforcement to work with DHS to get all the illegals out. Heck, they could have pointed DHS at the worst of the worst (who were being ignored by the governments in Illinois) which would have kept the ones who only broke the law by coming across the border illegally away from DHS….for a while, anyhow.

“I am respectfully requesting you suspend enforcement operations from Friday, October 31 to Sunday, November 2 in and around homes, schools, hospitals, parks, houses of worship, and other community gatherings where Halloween celebrations are taking place. Illinois families deserve to spend Halloween weekend without fear,” Pritzker wrote in a letter sent to Noem. “No child should be forced to inhale tear gas or other chemical agents while trick or treating in their own neighborhood.”

Yeah, well, if your voters would stop interfering, getting violent, blocking vehicles, assaulting federal agents, etc, there would be no tear gas.

Anyhow, why was Noem in Gary, Indiana?

ICE, Indiana troopers arrest more than 200 in immigration sweep

Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem on Thursday said the cooperation of Indiana and other states on immigration is crucial to making the nation’s highways safer.

Noem, Gov. Mike Braun, and officials with both U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Indiana State Police said state troopers have arrested 223 people suspected of being in the country illegally in the span of a little more than a month. The enforcement is part of ICE’s larger immigration sweep in Chicago, dubbed Operation Midway Blitz.

Of Indiana’s arrestees, Noem said 146 were truck drivers, more than 40 of whom had commercial driver’s licenses issued by states with sanctuary state laws, which include California, Illinois and New York. She said the arrests have led to charges for drug trafficking, child abuse, prostitution, assault, and domestic battery. The move followed several recent, high-profile fatal crashes involving truck drivers who were in the country illegally.

Cult: Day Of The Dead Flowers Getting Killed By ‘Climate Change’

By William Teach October 30, 2025 – 3:00 pm

This is what it looks like when a news organization is consumed by a doomsday cult

This orange flower cloaks Mexico during Day of the Dead. Climate change is putting it at risk

Lucia Ortiz trudges through endless fields of cempasuchil flowers, the luminescent orange petals of which will soon cloak everything from city streets to cemeteries across Mexico.

Here, in the winding canals and farms on the fringes of Mexico City, the flower also known as the Mexican marigold has been farmed for generations, and takes the spotlight every year in the country’s Day of the Dead celebrations.

But as 50-year-old Ortiz and other farmers busily bundle clusters of the plant to sell in markets around the capital, they quietly wonder what will be left of their livelihood down the line.

That’s because cempasuchil growers say they’ve been left reeling by torrential rains, stretching drought and other impacts from climate change — caused by the burning of fuels like gas, oil and coal — that have grown increasingly common.

 

Seriously, weather happens. How would they do if the world went into a new Little Ice Age?

This year, torrential rains stretching on for months wiped out more than 37,000 acres of crops across the country, according to government figures. In a visit to cempasuchil fields earlier this month in Xochimilco, Mexico City Mayor Clara Brugada said that as many of 2 million marigold plants were put at risk. Despite that, she said that production this year simultaneously broke a record of 6 million plants as farmers ramp up to meet increasing demand even as growing the flower has become more precarious.

So, wait, broke the record and doomed? Cult.
