Olympic women’s boxing match lasts 46 seconds after male competitor lands heavy blow

In a disgraceful display at the 2024 Paris Olympics, an Algerian man named Imane Khelif, who calls himself a woman, defeated Italian woman Angela Carini in a boxing match in the women’s 66-kilogram weight class after Carini abandoned the fight in just 46 seconds following a substantial blow to the head.

Video footage of the Thursday match shows Khelif, a 25-year-old man, striking Carini, a 25-year-old woman, hard in the jaw to start the lopsided fight.

Following the heavy blow, Carini landed a counter-strike on the male Khelif, at which point he appeared to complain to the referee, motioning to the back of his head. The fight concluded after just 46 seconds, with Carini abandoning the match and appearing to refuse to shake the man’s hand after he was absurdly declared the victor.

Following the match, a previous interview with Carini began to be shared online. In the pre-Olympics interview, Carini, through tears, talked about her dedication to training and the role her late father played in helping her persevere in competition.

Despite Khelif being male, the Olympics Committee ignored biological reality and approved him, along with a Taiwanese man, to be allowed to compete in the women’s boxing division based on his false assertion that he is female. In fact, Khelif was one of a number of men who had been previously disqualified from female competition by the International Boxing Association (IBA), after president Umar Kremley announced Khelif and others had failed “a series of DNA-tests” and “were trying to fool their colleagues and pretend to be women.” 

The match between Khelif and Carini quickly drew backlash online.

“Inclusion. Brought to you by the International Olympic Committee,” sarcastically quipped American female athlete Riley Gaines, who is known for her opposition to men in female sports.

‘I Know How These People Operate’: Fmr CIA Officer Calls BS On FBI’s New Epstein Intel

Published on

 

From the Daily Caller News Foundation

By Hailey Gomez

CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou said Monday on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime” he doesn’t believe anything about the new intelligence from the FBI on deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein adds up.

A report released by Axios Sunday said that, based on a two-page memo, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and FBI concluded that there had been no “client list” left by Epstein, despite ongoing public doubt. Discussing the new intelligence, Fox’s Jesse Watters asked Kiriakou if he believed the information from officials “adds up.”

“No, I don’t think this adds up,” Kiriakou said. “You’ve hit it on the head, and so has Barry. I think you’re both exactly right on this. We really don’t know anything because the FBI doesn’t want us to know anything. I’m not blaming the FBI Director Kash Patel or the Deputy Director Dan Bongino.”

In 2019, Epstein was arrested and charged with sex trafficking, only to be found dead in his New York Metropolitan Correctional Center cell a month later. Officials said the deceased pedophile hanged himself in the cell. Speculations grew online due to the circumstances of his death.

WATCH:

During his 2024 campaign, President Donald Trump vowed to release all Epstein’s files, with Patel also vowing to release as many files as he could. However, in May, Patel and Bongino told Fox News they remained firm that Epstein committed suicide, with Bongino flatly saying Epstein “killed himself.”

“I think that that layer beneath them, that’s part of what we like to call the deep state, has taken this bull by the horns, and they’ve probably destroyed information,” Kiriakou added. “Look at what the CIA did in 1975 after Congress ordered that it release all of its files related to an operation called MKUltra. The director of the CIA went back to headquarters and ordered  everything to be destroyed, and, in the end, only about 20% of the documents survived.”

“We’re still learning about the FBI’s operations against Martin Luther King 50, 55 years after the fact, so now we’re supposed to believe that everybody’s telling the truth, that there were no files, there were no dossiers?” Kiriakou asked. “I’m sorry. I just don’t buy it because I know how these people operate.”

Despite the newly released memo from the DOJ and FBI, Attorney General Pam Bondi said in February that she had personally reviewed Epstein’s list.

Blackouts Coming If America Continues With Biden-Era Green Frenzy, Trump Admin Warns

Published on

 

From the Daily Caller News Foundation

By Audrey Streb

The Department of Energy (DOE) released a new report Monday warning of impending blackouts if the United States continues to shutter power plants without adequately replacing retiring capacity.

DOE warned in its Monday report that blackouts could increase by 100% by 2030 if the U.S. continues to retire power plants without sufficient replacements, and that the electricity grid is not prepared to meet the demand of power-hungry data centers in the years to come without more reliable generation coming online quickly. The report specifically highlighted wind and solar, two resources pushed by Biden, as responsible for eroding grid stability and advised that dispatchable generation from sources like coal, oil, gas and nuclear are necessary to meet the anticipated U.S. power demand.

“This report affirms what we already know: The United States cannot afford to continue down the unstable and dangerous path of energy subtraction previous leaders pursued, forcing the closure of baseload power sources like coal and natural gas,” DOE Secretary Chris Wright said. “In the coming years, America’s reindustrialization and the AI race will require a significantly larger supply of around-the-clock, reliable, and uninterrupted power. President Trump’s administration is committed to advancing a strategy of energy addition, and supporting all forms of energy that are affordable, reliable, and secure. If we are going to keep the lights on, win the AI race, and keep electricity prices from skyrocketing, the United States must unleash American energy.”

All regional grid systems across the U.S. are expected to lose reliability in the coming years without the addition of more reliable power, according to the DOE’s report. The U.S. will need an additional 100 gigawatts of new peak hour supply by 2030, with data centers projected to require as much as half of this electricity, the report estimates; for reference, one gigawatt is enough to power up to one million homes.

President Donald Trump declared a national energy emergency on his first day back in the Oval Office and signed an executive order on April 8 ordering DOE to review and identify at-risk regions of the electrical grid, which the report released Monday does. In contrast, former President Joe Biden cracked down on conventional power sources like coal with stringent regulations while unleashing a gusher of subsidies for green energy developments.

Electricity demand is projected to hit a record high in the next several years, surging 25% by 2030, according to Energy Information Administration (EIA) data and a recent ICF International report. Demand was essentially static for the last several years, and skyrocketing U.S. power demand presents an “urgent need” for electricity resources, according to the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), a major grid watchdog.

Wright has also issued several emergency orders to major grid operators since April. New Orleans experienced blackouts just two days after Wright issued an emergency order on May 23 to the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO), the regional grid operator covering the New Orleans area.
