⚖️THE TRAGEDY AT NORTH PORT: THE PRINCIPAL WHO HYPNOTIZED A SCHOOL The chilling case of the "Principal Hypnotist" is back in the national spotlight this year. "He altered the underdeveloped brains of teenagers, and they all ended up dead because of it." — Damian Mallard, Attorney for the families. While the original events took place in 2011, a new deep-dive investigation by Investigation Discovery titled "The Curious Case of... The Principal Who Hypnotized a School", released in February 2026, has reignited outrage over how a high school administrator was allowed to "alter the brains" of his students. 📍 The Location & The School State: Florida School: North Port High School (Sarasota County) Principal: George Kenney 🕯️ The Victims Three talented teenagers lost their lives within months of each other in 2011 after undergoing hypnosis sessions with Kenney: 🚩Marcus Freeman (16): The star quarterback. Kenney taught him "self-hypnosis" to manage pain and focus. Freeman died in a horrific car crash after he reportedly entered a hypnotic trance while driving. 🚩Wesley McKinley (16): A gifted musician hoping to attend Juilliard. He was hypnotized by Kenney the day before he took his own life. Friends said he couldn't even remember his own name after the sessions. 🚩Brittany Palumbo (17): A high-achiever struggling with SAT prep. Kenney diagnosed her with "test anxiety" and claimed hypnosis would raise her scores. When they didn't, she fell into a deep depression and committed suicide. 🔍 The Latest: Why the Case is Resurfacing Now The 2026 investigation focuses on a "Culture of Complicity." New details and interviews with former staff highlight a disturbing timeline of ignored warnings: The Ignored Red Flags: It was revealed that Kenney’s supervisors warned him at least three separate times to stop practicing hypnosis on students. He ignored every directive. The "Mass Experiment": Investigations found Kenney had hypnotized as many as 75 students and staff members without proper licensing or medical oversight. The Legal Insult: Kenney never faced a day of prison time‼️ He pleaded "no contest" to practicing hypnosis without a license, received one year of probation, and retired to North Carolina with a full pension. ⚖️❤️

There’s a great moment in The Town: right after robbing an armored truck, the crew is switching cars when they suddenly come face-to-face with a lone cop. He sees them — then looks away. According to Ben Affleck, this was based on a real story. He explains: “For The Town, I went down and just went through all the prisons out there in Massachusetts — federal prisons, state prisons — and sat down and talked to guys who robbed trucks and banks… I’m in Walpole, or I’m in the prison in Dedham or whatever, and some guy said - after talking for two hours - I was like, “Has anything just fucking weird ever happened? Or fucked up? Anything you remember?” And he was like, “Yeah, one time, we were coming out of this thing. We robbed this truck, and we had the switch car. We drove around the corner, and we pull up and we get out — fucking guns and the masks, the whole thing — and we look over and there’s this cop sitting there doing construction duty.” I was like, “Oh shit. What happened?” “You know, he looked at us, we looked at him, he looked the other way.” And I was like, “Really?” He goes, “Yeah. He didn’t want to end up on the wall at the VFW.” I was like, “I’m putting that in the movie - He didn’t want to end up on the wall at the VFW.” It was a great line. It was such a simple explanation for, “What do you think he did?” And why. That’s exactly what it would have been. That guy, next day, his picture would have been up at the wall at the VFW. He knew it, and everybody knew it.”

Who needs the Epstein files—the first 16 women to accuse Trump speak out. 👇 #1 Cathy Heller—"He took my hand, and grabbed me, and went for the lips." #2 Jill Harth—"And he just slipped his hand there, touching my private part." #3 Temple Taggart—"He turned to me and embraced me and gave me a kiss on the lips. And I remember being shocked, because I would have just thought to shake somebody's hand, but that was his first response." #4 Cassandra Searles—"He continually grabbed my ass and invited me to his hotel room." #5 Jessica Leeds—"It was a real shock when all of a sudden his hands were all over me. But it's when he started putting his hand up my skirt, and that was it. That was it." #6 Kristin Anderson—"The person on my right, who unbeknownst to me at that time was Donald Trump, put their hand up my skirt. He did touch my vagina through my underwear." #7 Lisa Boyne—"As the women walked across the table, Donald Trump would look up under their skirt and, you know, comment on whether they had underwear or didn't have underwear. I didn't want to have to walk across the table. I wanted to get out of there." #8 Karena Virginia—"Then his hand touched the right inside of my breast. I felt intimidated and I felt powerless." #9 Mindy McGillivray—"Melania was standing right next to him when he touched my butt. She also caught him at the first encounter that we had." #10 Rachel Crooks—"He kissed me directly on the mouth. It was so inappropriate. He thought I was so insignificant he could do that." #11 Natasha Stoynoff—"I don't really care if he finds me attractive or not. Apparently, he found me attractive enough 11 years ago. I think that he's saying there that only pretty women get assaulted." #12 Jessica Drake—"When we entered the room, he grabbed each of us tightly in a hug and kissed each one of us without asking permission. After that, I received another call from either Donald or a male calling on his behalf, offering me ten thousand dollars. His actions are a huge testament to his character, that of uncontrollable misogyny, entitlement, and being a sexual assault apologist." #13 Ninni Laaksonen—"He really grabbed my butt. Mr. Trump was a slimy man!" #14 Samantha Holvey—"I'm sitting there in my robe and having my makeup and hair done and everything, and he comes walking in, and I was just like, Oh my goodness, like what is he doing back here? I saw him walk into the dressing room. He just came strolling right in. There was no second to put a robe on or any sort of clothing or anything. Some girls were topless, other girls were naked." #15 Tash Dixon—"He just came strolling right in. There was no second to put a robe on. Some girls were topless, and other girls were naked. Walking in when we're naked or half naked in a very physically vulnerable position." #16 Summer Zervos—"And he came to me and started kissing me open-mouthed as he was pulling me towards him. He then grabbed my shoulder and began kissing me again very aggressively and placed his hand on my breast. And I said, come on, man, get real. He repeated my words back to me. Get real. As he began thrusting his genitals." #DemVoice1 #wtpBLUE #DemsUnited

Q. How did Suga (Min Yoongi) interact with children with autism spectrum disorder? 👩🏻‍⚕️ We conducted the program 10 times in total, and each time lasted about 90 minutes. There was a really impressive session. Do you know the song ? It’s a very famous song that everyone knows, young or old. He sang that song, and this one kid was like, “I know this song!” and then Suga-sshi be like, “How do you know this song?” and the kid would answer, “I listen to it all the time when I go camping with my dad!”, like that, and then we sang out loud. I remember all the therapists who worked together were all laughing happily. Isn’t music something that breaks down language barriers for people around the world? There were instruments on display, and when we asked them to choose the one they wanted, some chose hand bells, some chose xylophones, some chose drums, some chose electronic drums, and some brought instruments they liked or knew how to play, like clarinet or saxophones. They chose various instruments and played together. At that time, Suga-sshi be like, "You start first, and I'll match it." And he matched with the rhythm. And there was a session where they had to write letters to each other. Suga-sshi would gently play the guitar to match the speed of the speech, the rhythm too, he would match it like, speed up or slow down to match the speed. With that, thanks to Suga-sshi, the children got to experience the words and music coming together. Interestingly, although we told the parents (of children with autism spectrum disorder) that Suga-sshi was participating as an assistant therapist and volunteer, our children participated it without knowing that the music teacher was Suga-sshi at all. I want to tell you that they participated until the end without knowing at all that Suga-sshi was the music teacher or that he was the teacher who played the guitar. 👩🏻‍⚕️ Since Suga-sshi has always been interested in youth mental health, I think he felt more and more about the importance of these systematic treatment system, platform, and hardware for children and adolescents through continuous communication with me. So, Suga-sshi suddenly felt the desire to create such a dedicated space and provided financial support of 5 billion won.

In 2015, Scott Adams made a prediction that STUNNED the political world. He said Donald Trump had a 98% chance of winning the presidency, and almost no one believed him. In this 2016 interview with vladtv, Adams calmly explained exactly why he predicted that Trump was going to win…long before it happened. Adams was proven right about everything. VLAD: “A year ago, you came out and said that Trump is going to win by a landslide, is going to win by such a margin that we haven’t seen it in recent history.” ADAMS: “Yes I did. Would you like me to take you through that?” “So the prediction was based on his persuasion skills, not on politics.” “My politics don’t align with him or with anybody else.” “But I am a trained hypnotist. I learned hypnosis when I was in my 20s, when I actually went to school for it.” “And I’ve been learning the tools of persuasion in general beyond hypnosis all my life, both for general usefulness, but because it’s especially important as a writer.” “And so I observed in Trump, the highest level of persuasive talent I’ve ever seen.” “And what a lot of people thought was random behavior and childish talking and bad vocabulary and whatever else you heard about him, I recognized this technique.” “So in the beginning people said, my God, he talks like a sixth grader who doesn’t know words.” “But months later, as he was rising in the polls, you saw the experts start to consolidate around what I said in the beginning, which was, wait a minute, this talk is really effective.” “He keeps it simple because that’s who he is talking to.” “And he repeats things because repeating makes a difference.” “So if I were to ask you, you know what are Trump’s main things he believes? Everybody could list it.” “And then you ask, you know, what are any of his opponents, you know, during the primaries or now, what do any of the opponents think of?” “You’re like…stuff…make things better?” “You know, it’s just a less clear message.” “So in many ways, he had this level of talent that I’d never seen.” “And so I predicted he would just slice through the field and cut them apart.”

🚨WOW!!! A Bronx pizzeria owner saw a woman eating out of his GARBAGE. He walked outside, took her by the hand, led her in, and pulled a hot slice straight from the oven for her. She sat down and cried. He said: "Don't cry. Eat. I don't want you eating out of a garbage." ❤️ His name is Daniel Romano. He owns D'Romano's Pizza in the Throggs Neck section of the Bronx. He didn't shoo her away. "I grabbed her by the hand and I led her to the pizzeria and I went in the oven and I got her a fresh slice and gave it to her. Sat down and she started crying. I said, 'don't cry, eat. This is not a problem.'" In that moment, he decided he'd never let it happen to anyone again. So he grabbed a marker, wrote a sign by hand, and taped it in his window for the whole neighborhood to see: "To the people eating out of my garbage, I have more love for you than you think. Please come in and tell me you're hungry. I will forever give you a slice and fresh water to drink." When they asked him why, his answer was simple. "Right now, I think this world is shot. There's too much hate. Too much negativity. Why not put a smile on someone's face?" And it turns out this runs deep for Daniel. It goes all the way back to his mother, Carmella. "She had a saying in Italian. She used to say, 'a desperate person will always make a better decision on a full stomach than on an empty.' "It always stuck with me. So I feed people." A desperate person makes a better decision on a full stomach. That handwritten sign has traveled way past the Bronx now. Daniel says people are calling him from Texas, Arkansas, Hawaii, even Alaska, all wanting to chip in and buy slices for hungry strangers they'll NEVER MEET. "Don't ask me, I didn't even know Alaska had a phone." It all started with one slice. One woman. One man who did something kind. GOD BLESS Daniel Romano. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

🚨🇺🇸 Wolf: "As for Epstein's explanation for why this friendship ended, it goes like this. In 2004, Epstein believed he was the highest bidder for a property in Palm Beach—a mansion. His bid was $36 million. He took his friend Trump on a tour of the house, advising him on how to move the swimming pool. Trump then went around Epstein and bid $40 million for the house—and got the property. Epstein, who was well aware of Trump's scattered finances and was deeply involved in them, realized that Trump didn't have $40 million to pay for the house. If that was the case, then the $40 million belonged to someone else. At the time, Epstein believed it was $40 million belonging to a Russian oligarch named Rybolovlev. Less than two years later, the same house Trump bought for $40 million was sold for $95 million—to Rybolovlev. All of this is a serious indication of money laundering. And what Epstein did—he was furious about losing this house—I mean, there's something about these men; nothing gets them going like betrayal in real estate. After the house was sold, and after Trump went around him and got the property, Epstein began threatening lawsuits and going to the press, saying Trump was a front for a money-laundering deal. Trump panicked at that point, and Epstein believed Trump was the one who went to the police and, as Epstein put it, reported him. In other words, he told police what was going on. The investigation began, and all of Epstein's legal problems over the next 15 years started to unfold. The story about this property and their falling-out was first published in June 2019. It is also in my book, 'Siege,' the second book I wrote about the Trump White House. Epstein told me this story, and I wrote it down in the book. He was in Paris at the time, read the book, then called me somewhat alarmed, saying he feared he had revealed too much. Three weeks later, he returned to the US from Paris and was immediately arrested on the tarmac at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey when his plane landed."

Kristen Stewart confirms a wealthy Middle Eastern royal offered Harvey Weinstein $500,000 for his charity in exchange for 15 minutes alone with her Howard: “It was some story where Harvey Weinstein of all people had a charity thing, and there was some sheikh or Saudi Arabian prince who said, I will give $500,000 to your charity if you get me 15 minutes alone with Kristen Stewart” Kristen: “That sounds terrifying and that happened” Howard: “Did you go through with it to raise money for the charity?” Kristen: “Unbeknownst to me, this occurred. I had sort of been sidestepping this person for a while, in other ways. I knew about this person. I was like, no, no, no, no, no. At first, it wasn’t a philanthropic thing at all” Howard: “Right. In other words, someone was trying to get a hold of you” Kristen: “He would pay me. Yeah, exactly. Pay anyone anything in order to just kick it with me for a second” Howard: “Probably in his mind, he’s thinking, if you just met me for 15 minutes, you’ll be in love” Kristen: “Maybe this will be it” Howard: “This will be it. You will run off with him” Kristen: “I wonder what his thought process was. I really don’t know. But I went to this fundraiser that I was invited to and he was there and I was like, oh, I’ve just been fully harpooned. And it’s fine” “Ultimately it was well-intentioned, but it was definitely a lie. I was coerced into a really good thing. If he had just told me, I probably would be like, okay, f*ck it. Yes, that will raise a lot of money for this thing. I’m down. I’ll come see him as long as there’s people around and I’ll shake his hand and be like, totally, bye. But to do that to someone and not tell them is like-” Howard: “So you had the 15 minutes with this guy. I guess you made good on it. You were alone” Kristen: “I walked into a room and he was there. And I was like, oh my god” Howard: “Did you have security around you?” Kristen: “Oh yeah. Always. It was a very weird situation, but it was not a threatening situation. It was just like, this is sort of wrong. You could have gone about this in a different way. You psycho”

Sylvester Stallone on the "blissful stupidity" that got Rocky made Sylvester Stallone turned down $265,000 when he had $106 in the bank. He explained why to Johnny Carson, weeks after *Rocky* opened. Carson set it up by telling his audience he had watched the film with a room full of friends and everyone got up saying it was a knockout. "I have met no one yet really who has seen the picture who did not like it," he said. The film had already won best film of the year from Scholastic Magazine and Coronet Magazine. Carson's point: if somebody made a movie about how this movie got made, the audience wouldn't buy it. Stallone agreed, and gave the reason it worked anyway: "It was quite a long shot; if I had known it was gonna be that difficult I wouldn't have done it. I think it was a classic case of blissful stupidity because I didn't know you couldn't do something like this." His financing strategy was not sophisticated: "To me it seemed very normal honking your horn in the driveway of the producer and tapping on his window at all hours of the night and saying please, please, please. Eventually, I think they just gave me the money to go away." The script came out of his own dead end. He was turning 30, had been acting for ten years, and had concluded nothing was going to happen. So he took his own plight, "my inability to be recognized as an actor," and, in his words, put it in boxing shorts. "When you're a down-and-out underdog fighter, that's about as low down as you can get." The studio liked it. They also wanted somebody else in it. Stallone lists the names that came up: James Caan, Ryan O'Neal, Burt Reynolds. All bankable. None of them him. So they made offers. First $100,000 for the script. Then, as he puts it, $150,000 "to take a walk." He said no. They came back at $265,000. Carson asked him directly what goes through your head when someone offers you two hundred and sixty-five thousand dollars. "Well I said that's a lot of bread. Well after I stood up, you know it's one of those things. I felt as though the money meant nothing when you haven't dealt in money that much; it really had no bearing." He had about $106 in the bank at the time. His explanation for turning down more than 2,500 times that: a number that large was so far outside his experience that it had no emotional weight. Carson compared it to a man at the racetrack who wins $100,000, loses it all by the end of the day, and reports his loss as six dollars. Stallone's summary of his own position was one line: "So it really didn't bother me, plus $106 was gaining interest." The thing he was protecting was not the script. It was the part. And the part was the point of the script in the first place. "Many people consider it a fight film which is not true; there's only like nine minutes of fighting."
