This is why we need a southern border wall

California fentanyl bust: Feds seize one million counterfeit pills worth up to $20 million.

Law enforcement seized about one million counterfeit pills laced with fentanyl at a residence in the Los Angeles suburb of Inglewood last week, the DEA announced on Thursday.

The pills have an estimated street value of $15 to $20 million and are believed to be linked to a drug trafficking ring associated with the Sinaloa Cartel.

"This massive seizure disrupted the flow of dangerous amounts of fentanyl into our streets and probably saved many lives," DEA Special Agent in Charge Bill Bodner said in a statement.

Fentanyl, a dangerous opioid up to 100 times stronger than morphine, was detected in about two-thirds of the record 107,622 fatal drug overdoses last year, according to the CDC.

Drug dealers often lace fentanyl with other drugs, such as heroin and counterfeit pills, to increase their profits, according to the DEA.

"The deceptive marketing coupled with the ease of accessibility makes these small and seemingly innocuous pills a significant threat to the health and safety of all our communities," Bodner said. "A staggering number of teens and young adults are unaware that they are ingesting fentanyl in these fake pills and are being poisoned."

Los Angeles is a common stopping point for drug trafficking rings due to the city's proximity to the southern border and the many airports and freeways that make it easy to smuggle drugs to other destinations throughout the United States.

The DEA seized more than 3 million fentanyl pills last year in the greater Los Angeles area, almost three times as much as they seized in 2020. About 1.5 million fentanyl pills have been seized this year.

Ivana Trump, ex-wife of former President Trump, dies at age 73

Ivana Trump, the ex-wife of former President Donald Trump, has died at age 73, the family told ABC News.

"Our mother was an incredible woman -- a force in business, a world-class athlete, a radiant beauty, and caring mother and friend," the Trump family said in a statement.

"Ivana Trump was a survivor. She fled from communism and embraced this country. She taught her children about grit and toughness, compassion and determination," the family said. "She will be dearly missed by her mother, her three children and ten grandchildren."

Manhattan paramedics, responding to a call for cardiac arrest, found a 73-year-old woman in the Upper East Side apartment where Ivana Trump lived just after 12:30 p.m. Thursday, according to the FDNY.

In a statement on his platform Truth Social, Donald Trump remembered Ivana as a "wonderful, beautiful, and amazing woman, who led a great and inspirational life."

"Her pride and joy were her three children, Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric," he wrote. "She was so proud of them, as we were all so proud of her."

Ivana Trump was Donald Trump's first wife. They had three children together: Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric Trump.

Ivana Trump, who grew up under Communist rule in the former Czechoslovakia, married Donald Trump in 1977. The couple divorced in 1992.

At least 22 people found dead in South African 'tavern' UPDATE - Now calling it a stampede

Emergency services were called in the early hours of Sunday to the Enyobeni Tavern in Scenery Park, on the edge of East London, Eastern Cape province. Authorities say they are going to carry out post mortems as soon as possible. Reports say there are no obvious injuries on the bodies.

Eastern Cape police spokesperson Brigadier Tembinkosi Kinana told the Newzroom Africa rolling news channel in the country that young people were among the dead.

Reuters reported him saying they were aged between 18 and 20, but there are also reports they may have been younger, with AP saying they were reportedly attending a party to celebrate the end of winter school exams.

Siyanda Manana, a spokesperson for the Eastern Cape provincial health department, told Reuters: "We are going to immediately be embarking on autopsies so we can know the probable cause of death. We are talking 22 bodies right now."

AP said police were investigating the deaths of at least 20 but reporters at the Daily Dispatch newspaper had earlier said the death toll could be as high as 22.

Another five people have been taken to hospital, according to local broadcaster eNCA.

11-YEAR-OLD ONE-ARMED SLUGGER TOMMY MORRISSEY CRUSHES HOME RUNS IN COOPERSTOWN

Remember this name — Tommy Morrissey.

The 11-year-old baseball player who shot to fame as a one-armed golf prodigy lit it up last week in Cooperstown where he crushed his first two over-the-fence home runs while taking home ‘Play of the Week honors from Cooperstown All-Star Village.

Morrissey, who has been featured on HBO, The Ellen Show, Golf Channel and credits for Tiger Woods for inspiring a “heart of mentality in me,” is about to see himself on SportsCenter for one specific home run where he went yard on a breaking pitch that was deposited over the all-star village left-field wall with the use of his left arm.

It was such an impressive shot that the umpire working home plate needed to get ‘five’ from Tommy as he rolled towards home plate to celebrate with his teammates.

Lawyers should never ask a Georgia grandma a question if they aren't prepared for the answer

Lawyers should never ask a Georgia grandma a question if they aren't prepared for the answer.
In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand. He approached her and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know me?' She responded, 'Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were a boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realise you'll never amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you.'
The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across the room and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know the defence attorney?'
She again replied, 'Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone, and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him.'
The defence attorney nearly died.
The judge asked both counsellors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice, said,
'If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the electric chair.

Finally: Peter Doocy And Jen Psaki Announce Their Engagement

WASHINGTON, D.C.—After over a year of courtship, Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy and White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki have announced they are finally tying the knot.

"Um, on a personal note, I would like to announce that I will soon be stepping down to marry Peter Doocy," said Psaki at the end of a recent press conference. "I believe, and the President agrees, that this is the best course of action for me at this point in time."

Doocy then jumped up from his seat in the press pool and then did a fist pump before aggressively questioning the Press Secretary. "Excuse me," he said, "don't you think it's a little hypocritical to host a lavish wedding ceremony to me in D.C. when so many people are struggling? And don't you think it's a conflict of interest to marry someone in the press?"

"No further questions," said Psaki with a twinkle in her eye and a shy smile before exiting the stage.

"Ugh, finally," said CNN correspondent Kaitlan Collins. "The crackling tension whenever those two were in the room together was overpowering. It makes it really hard for the rest of us to do our jobs when those two are bickering so adorably and making eyes at each other constantly. Get a room, you two! Also, Congratulations."

Doocy and Psaki will host a lavish wedding in the nation's capital, where all VIPs on the Left and the Right except for Lauren Boebert will be invited to attend.

Boris Johnson Resigns

Boris Johnson finally announced his resignation today admitting 'no-one is indispensable' - but is lining up a 'unity Cabinet' as he battles to stay in Downing Street for months longer.

In a statement in Downing Street, the PM tried to sound an upbeat tone as he confirmed his MPs 'clearly' want a change and his time in office will come to an end when a new Tory leader is installed.

Standing at the traditional podium and watched by wife Carrie, baby Romy and close aides, Mr Johnson said the situation was 'painful' and branded the move to oust him 'eccentric'.

But he pointed to his achievements since winning the huge landslide - such as the vaccine rollout, Brexit and coming to the aid of Ukraine.

He said his message to voters who delivered his 2019 landslide was 'thank you for that incredible mandate', adding the 'reason I have fought so hard' was because he felt it was his 'job' to deliver what he promised.

'I want you to know how sad I am to be giving up the best job in the world, but them's the breaks,' he said.

Mr Johnson blamed 'powerful herd instinct' for his ousting, saying: 'In the last few days, I tried to persuade my colleagues that it would be eccentric to change governments when we're delivering so much and when we have such a vast mandate and when we're actually only a handful of points behind in the polls, even in mid-term after quite a few months of pretty relentless sledging and when the economic scene is so difficult domestically and internationally.

'I regret not to have been successful in those arguments and of course it's painful not to be able to see through so many ideas and projects myself.

'But as we have seen at Westminster the herd instinct is powerful, when the herd moves, it moves.

'And my friends in politics, no one is remotely indispensable and our brilliant and Darwinian system will produce another leader, equally committed to taking this country forward through tough times.'

Mr Johnson paid tribute to his family for 'all they have put up with', in a nod to the succession of scandals that have blighted his premiership.

'Our future is golden,' he finished.
