Doria Defends Meghan

 

Meghan Markle’s mother, Doria Ragland, shared a childhood photo of Princess Lilibet that went viral.

Alongside the picture, she wrote: “Who dares say my daughter faked her pregnancy?”

sparking both support and outrage in the UK.

Rumors Resurface

Speculation about Meghan’s pregnancies has circulated for years, with some critics even claiming Lilibet’s birth was staged.

Doria’s emotional defense directly challenged these accusations, reigniting public debate.

Mixed Reactions

Supporters praised Doria for standing up for Meghan, while others questioned the timing of the photo,

suggesting it was meant to counter persistent gossip.

Still, the post highlighted the relentless scrutiny faced by the Sussexes.

Jealousy Claims

At the same time, reports suggest Meghan and Harry may feel overshadowed by Prince William and Kate Middleton’s recent successes.

A source noted, “What a contrast to William and Kate who… have been projecting an entirely more marketable image.”

On-Court Clash Goes Viral

A tense exchange between veteran Brittney Griner and rookie Caitlin Clark during a WNBA matchup has gone viral,

sparking debates about competition and sportsmanship.

As Yahoo Sports put it: “WNBA was totally unprepared for Caitlin Clark: ‘That’s unfortunate but that’s what happened.’”

Social Media Frenzy

The short clip spread rapidly across X, Instagram, and TikTok, with fans and commentators offering speculation.

The lack of an immediate WNBA statement fueled more debate,

showing how digital media can magnify even brief confrontations.

Players in the Spotlight

Clark, hailed as the face of a new WNBA era, has drawn massive attention and new fans.

Griner, already a high-profile veteran, remains under heavy scrutiny as narratives around her career continue to evolve.

Bigger Picture

The episode highlights both the challenges and opportunities for women’s sports.

For lasting growth, the league must balance transparency, fairness, and respect for its athletes.

These Buttery Pecan Snowball Cookies are a timeless treat that combines a delicate,

melt-in-your-mouth texture with the rich, nutty flavor of pecans.

Perfect for holidays, special occasions, or anytime you want a sweet indulgence,

these cookies are surprisingly simple to make and bring warmth and joy with every bite.

Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure even baking and easy cleanup.

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 ¼ cups of all-purpose flour, ½ cup of powdered sugar,

and a pinch of salt. Cut in 2 sticks of butter at room temperature until the mixture is crumbly but starts to come together.

Stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 1 cup of finely chopped pecans until evenly distributed.

The dough should be soft yet hold its shape when rolled into balls.

Use a teaspoon or small cookie scoop to portion out the dough, then roll each piece into a smooth ball with your hands,

placing them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet to allow room for gentle spreading.

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly golden but the tops remain pale, indicating a tender, crumbly interior.

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

While still warm, roll each cookie in 1 cup of powdered sugar, coating them completely for that signature snowball appearance.

Once fully cooled, give the cookies a second roll in powdered sugar for an extra layer of sweetness and a festive look.

These Buttery Pecan Snowball Cookies are perfect served with tea, coffee, or milk, and they store well in an airtight container for up to a week, maintaining their soft, nutty charm.

Trump Links Tylenol to Autism

At a memorial rally in Arizona, President Donald Trump claimed he had “found an answer to autism,”

suggesting acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy is linked to autism diagnoses.

Flanked by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Trump said the FDA would warn doctors that acetaminophen

“can be associated with a very increased risk of autism.”

Backlash from Experts

Scientists note no proven link exists between Tylenol and Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Critics called Trump’s remarks dangerous, especially as he also dispensed vaccine advice based on “what I feel.”

Obama Responds

Former president Barack Obama condemned the claim, saying it “undermines public health …

that can do harm to women” and called it a “violence against the truth.”

Political Stakes

The controversy highlights Trump’s focus on controversial health claims,

while opponents warn such rhetoric risks eroding medical trust and public safety.

For several weeks, Laura Gómez, a 32-year-old young mother, began experiencing intense itching.

At first, she thought it was a simple allergy.

She changed her soap, avoided certain foods, and even visited a dermatologist,

who prescribed creams and antihistamines. Nothing worked.

The itching intensified every day, affecting her sleep, mood, and daily routine.

“It was desperate,” Laura says.

“I felt like something was moving inside me, I scratched myself until I bled, and nothing could relieve me.

But I never imagined what was coming.”

On the morning of September 11, 2025, less than twenty-four hours after the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk, police in Utah Valley say they arrested a man who had crossed inside two layers of yellow crime-scene tape at Utah Valley University.

 

Witnesses described him as wearing medical scrubs and a doctor’s white lab coat. Officers later identified him as Russell Kim Kennington, 38, of Pleasant Grove. He now faces charges of criminal trespass and obstruction of justice, both serious offenses.

According to the official report, Kennington was not just loitering nearby. He allegedly walked straight into the restricted perimeter and began filming and photographing evidence. When confronted, he reportedly told investigators he was “reminiscing and following the shadows.”

Even stranger is where he was caught: the Woodbury Building, the same location that independent footage had shown suspicious activity just minutes before the assassination. This coincidence has fueled widespread speculation about what, exactly, Kennington was doing there and why he chose that specific spot instead of fleeing toward other exits on campus.

The arrest raises obvious questions. Why the disguise? Why film a taped-off crime scene at all? Was he acting alone, or was he attempting to recover or record something left behind? And perhaps most important — why have so few national outlets picked up this story, given the extraordinary timing and circumstances?

For now, authorities maintain that he is being processed through the Utah County justice system and that the charges are tied directly to the alleged trespass and obstruction. Still, the incident underscores how chaotic and confusing the hours after the assassination became — and how many unexplained threads remain.

Until more details are released, the public is left with fragments: a man in a lab coat, a crime scene under heavy guard, and a string of unanswered questions about what he hoped to find inside the yellow tape.

Carson Hails Revival After Charlie Kirk’s Death

Dr. Ben Carson celebrated the surge of Christian and patriotic energy following Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Speaking at a packed State Farm Stadium in Arizona during Kirk’s memorial on Sunday, Carson praised Kirk’s work with Turning Point USA. He predicted the movement would grow under the leadership of Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk.

Bridging Generations

“I am delighted to see young people joining older generations, moving together in the same direction,” Carson said. “Our nation rose from nothing to a global pinnacle because of our Judeo-Christian principles. Our rights come from our Creator, not the government.”

Warning Against Cultural Indoctrination

Carson condemned efforts by Marxists to seize control of schools, media, and cultural institutions. “A radical leftist once said, ‘Give me your children for four years, and the seed I sow will never be uprooted.’ That’s exactly what’s happening. They aim to dominate Hollywood and the media to normalize sexual perversion,” he explained.

He also criticized churches that abandon biblical teachings to follow secular trends. “I challenge ministers to preach the Bible, not leftist ideology,” Carson urged.

The Coming Revival

Carson encouraged the audience to embrace a nationwide spiritual revival. “Get on board the revival that is coming. We cannot stop it. Look around this stadium—we’re all part of it,” he said.

Linking Faith and Freedom

He reminded Americans that true freedom requires courage. “You cannot be the land of the free if you’re not the home of the brave. Stand up for your beliefs,” Carson declared.

Honoring Charlie Kirk

Carson concluded by quoting John 12:24 and noting the timing of Kirk’s shooting: “‘Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone, but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.’ I thank Charlie for his sacrifice. Much fruit will be realized because of it.”

FDA Recalls Chantix Over Safety Concerns

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced a voluntary recall of Chantix (varenicline),

a medication used to help people quit smoking, after finding elevated levels of nitrosamines,

chemicals that may increase cancer risk with long-term exposure.

While the exact risk at the detected levels remains uncertain,

the FDA stressed the recall is a precautionary measure to ensure patient safety.

Patients are advised not to stop Chantix without consulting a doctor,

as sudden withdrawal could disrupt progress in quitting smoking.

Healthcare providers can recommend safe alternatives and help patients transition smoothly.

Pharmacists are also urged to check if patients’ medication is part of the affected lots.

The FDA noted that the recall highlights the importance of ongoing quality control in drug manufacturing.

Despite the concern, officials reassured the public that the move reflects their commitment to safety and maintaining trust in medications.

A Tragic Adventure

In November 2009, 26-year-old medical student, husband, and father John Edward Jones entered Utah’s Nutty Putty Cave with family and friends.

What was meant to be “a fun outing during the Thanksgiving holiday” turned into one of the darkest tragedies in modern caving.

The Cave’s Reputation

Nutty Putty Cave, discovered in the 1960s, was known for “twisting passages, tight squeezes, and unstable terrain.”

Despite past rescues and temporary closures, it reopened with safety rules—yet still remained dangerous.

A Fatal Misstep

While exploring, John mistook a tight crevice for the “Birth Canal.”

At just 10 inches high and 18 inches wide, it trapped him upside down.

Rescuers worked tirelessly with ropes and pulleys, but after nearly 28 hours, “John had lost consciousness and could not be revived.”

The Aftermath

His body could not be recovered, and Nutty Putty Cave was sealed permanently.

A plaque now honors him, his story serving as both tribute and warning.
