Tanushree Dutta Fires Back at Critics Calling Her Harassment Claims a 'Gimmick'
Renowned Miami defense attorney Roy Black passed away at 80 in Coral Gables, Florida, after battling an undisclosed illness. Widely regarded as a legal titan, Black remained active at his law firm until his final days. Following news of his death, conspiracy theories exploded online, with many linking it to his past ties with Jeffrey Epstein. Viral posts claim it's 'no coincidence,' calling it another piece removed from the board. His wife, Lea Black, confirmed the passing and promised a public tribute soon. Black gained national fame after defending William Kennedy Smith in a historic televised rape trial and later represented high-profile names like Justin Bieber, Rush Limbaugh, Helio Castroneves, and Epstein.

Buried in 'back room': FBI's Kash Patel finds hidden Trump–Russia docs; what do they reveal?
Kash Patel (AP) A newly surfaced document has added fresh details to the public's understanding of a complex set of 2016 Russian intelligence reports that examined alleged emails stolen by Russian hackers from American individuals. Indian origin FBI director Kash Patel said that they have found and declassified intel on how the US Intelligence Community handled claims tying then-presidential candidate Donald Trump to Russia during the 2016 election. The document in question is a purported email dated July 27, 2016, alleging that Hillary Clinton had approved a campaign strategy to link Donald Trump to Russia in order to divert attention from the controversy surrounding her use of a private email server, reports the New York Times. The Russian intelligence memos first drew public attention in 2017, when The New York Times and The Washington Post reported on then-FBI Director James Comey's decision to break with Justice Department protocol. Comey publicly addressed the Clinton email investigation, criticizing her use of a private server while ultimately concluding that no criminal charges were warranted. 'We uncovered this annex, along with thousands of other documents, buried in a back room at the FBI. It revealed a highly classified piece of the Durham report: evidence that the Clinton campaign plotted to frame President Trump and fabricate the Russia collusion hoax. We worked with Chairman Grassley and declassified the documents immediately. And now the American people can see the truth for themselves,' said Kash Patel through a post on X. 'Good summary of what we @fbifound and declassified, for the first time ever. More to come' he posted, quoting another post referring to the annex. The annex reportedly revealed "evidence that the Clinton campaign plotted to frame President Trump and fabricate the Russia collusion hoax,' said Kash Patel. Donald Trump and his allies have accused former President Obama of 'treason' as the newly released documents offered fresh insight into a pivotal political period nearly a decade ago, reports the New York Times. Former CIA Director John Ratcliffe claimed the materials confirmed that the Russia collusion narrative originated from 'a coordinated plan to prevent and destroy Donald Trump's presidency.' 'These intelligence reports and related records, whether true or false, were buried for years. History will show that the Obama and Biden administration's law enforcement and intelligence agencies were weaponised against President Trump,' said senator Chuck Grassley said as per the New York Post. The annex, however, casts a doubt on a central piece of evidence behind the allegations that Hillary Clinton approved of a plan to link Donald Trump to Russia. Special counsel John Durham concluded that the July 27, 2016, email, along with a related message from two days earlier, was likely fabricated. "Whether or not the Clinton Plan intelligence was based on reliable or unreliable information, or was ultimately true or false," FBI agents should have exercised greater caution when handling material that seemed to stem from partisan sources, Durham noted, as per the New York Times.

FBI HQ Explosive: Kash Patel Drops Clinton-Trump-Russia Bombshell
In a stunning revelation, Kash Patel claimed that a secret annex inside the FBI contained hidden documents tied to the Durham report. These materials allegedly show a Clinton-orchestrated effort to falsely connect Donald Trump to Russia. Patel says he worked swiftly with Sen. Grassley to declassify the files. Meanwhile, when confronted with questions about 'burn bags' found at FBI HQ, Trump responded with confusion and humor, apparently misunderstanding the term. The burn bags, used to destroy classified materials, now raise more questions about potential coverups. This development adds a dramatic new layer to the long-running Russiagate saga.#KashPatel #DurhamReport #Trump #FBI #Russiagate #ClintonEmails #BurnBags #DeepState #PoliticalDrama #JusticeUncovered Read More

Midtown Manhattan shooting: Hundreds mourn NYPD officer at Bronx mosque; Bangladeshi-born cop hailed for sacrifice
(Photo credit: Agencies) Hundreds gathered at a New York mosque on Thursday to commemorate a Bangladesh-born police officer who lost his life protecting his adopted city when a shooter attacked an office building this week. Officer Didarul Islam "did believe in the American dream, not as something handed down but as something built with your own hands," Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch addressed Islam's community as officers stood in formation outside the Bronx religious centre. Officials and New York's Bangladeshi community members gathered to honour the deceased officer during a service that highlighted his dedication to family, heritage and public service. The 36-year-old officer, a married father of two expecting a third child, was conducting an NYPD-approved private security assignment in uniform when he and three others were fatally shot Monday at the Manhattan high-rise housing the NFL's headquarters and various corporate offices. "To our family, he was our world. To the city, he was a proud NYPD officer who served with compassion and integrity. He lived to help others," Islam's widow said in a message delivered by a family member at the Parkchester Jame Masjid mosque, according to the Associated Press. Officers positioned on nearby rooftops provided security whilst fire engines displayed a large American flag across the street. A vehicle carried a digital display showing Islam's photographs and a tribute from his union. After immigrating to the United States, Islam established his career in America's largest police department. He viewed policing as "a blanket of the community, there to provide comfort and care," according to the police commissioner. Initially serving as a school safety agent, Islam became a patrol officer less than four years ago and received a posthumous promotion to detective on Thursday. "He could have gone into any other occupation he wanted, but he wanted to put on that uniform, and he wanted to protect fellow New Yorkers. And he wanted to let us know that he believed in what this city and what this country stood for," Mayor Eric Adams told attendees. In Washington, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt commenced her briefing by conveying President Donald Trump's sympathies to Islam's family, noting he "made the ultimate sacrifice in defence of his fellow New Yorkers." Imam Zakir Ahmed emphasised the officer's immigrant background and Muslim faith, whilst noting Islam "lived at a time when people like him are too often feared, vilified and made to feel like outsiders." Following the service, attendees filled the streets for prayer, including Muslim officers, as their colleagues maintained formation behind them. The officer's casket, adorned with US and NYPD flags, was transported to Totowa, New Jersey, for burial. Julia Hyman, 27, another victim who worked at a real estate firm, was remembered at a Manhattan synagogue service on Wednesday. Funeral arrangements remain unannounced for security guard Aland Etienne and executive Wesley LePatner. Police identified Shane Tamura, 27, as the assailant, a former football player who recently worked in Las Vegas casino surveillance. Authorities discovered over 800 ammunition rounds in his vehicle and 47 shell casings at the scene. Officials reported Tamura had mental health issues and found prescribed psychiatric medication at his Las Vegas residence. He mistakenly accessed the wrong floor whilst attempting to reach the NFL office. The shooting seriously wounded an NFL employee in the lobby. Governor Kathy Hochul stated at Thursday's service that Islam "saved lives. He was out front," adding that "others may be alive today because he was the barrier."
