In one set of trials of shock gloves carried out by the US Army in 2024, the electric gloves caused “overwhelmingly immediate” pain to soldiers. They then reported that “just seeing the glove” frightened them into obedience.

My favorite thing about the Kimberly Guilfoyle donor texts scandal is that it has to be humiliating for her that it’s now public. And it’s got to sting to know that it must have been Eric Deters who leaked her messages instructing him to help her commit tax fraud and cover up the scheme.

How Israel's relentless killing of over 1000 Palestinians in Gaza since October 2025 can be called a "ceasefire" is beyond me- its brainwashing. Aljazeera noted: Israel attacked Gaza on 325 of the past 361 days, leaving only 36 days with no reported attacks, deaths or injuries.

Pay attention. An ambassador nominee needs $100,000. Not a loan…a WIRE. Not to her…to AmEx. “It won't show up anywhere." "Please." That's what Kimberly Guilfoyle reportedly texted a Trump donor on Signal, per the WSJ. She wasn't hiding a debt. She was hiding the paper trail. Ask yourself why
