June 8: Preventing laser strikes during the @FIFAWorldCup
Over 11,000 complaints involving laser strikes were made in 2025. The FBI takes the threat seriously and has worked closely with the FAA and other partners to clamp down on crimes involving laser pointing particularly during major events like the World Cup. We investigated 57 incidents last year and have several more cases ongoing in 2026.
Laser strikes are a federal crime that can lead to prison time and a hefty fine – not only are they disruptive, they are extremely dangerous, particularly when it comes to those targeting aircrafts.
Safety is paramount during the tournament, and this @FBI and our partners want to be crystal clear when it comes to laser strikes: do not under any circumstance point a laser at any airborne aircraft during this historic event.
A few recent FBI investigations:
- An Oregon man pled guilty to pointing a green laser at a Customs and Border Protection helicopter, forcing it to abort its planned landing.
- An Albuquerque man was charged with aiming a laser at a Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office helicopter during an operation, striking the cockpit over a dozen times with repeated hits to the pilot’s eyes.
- A resident of Toledo, Ohio, was arrested and charged in federal court with aiming a laser at an Ohio State Highway Patrol helicopter while on its flight path.
Know the law and its consequences. Stay alert and report any suspicious activities by calling 1-800-CALL-FBI or visiting https://t.co/m55w5cr9Xw
Court decorum is vigorously enforced in every court proceeding by every judge I’ve ever known. When the jury starts making audible responses to the idiocy of a lawyer, that lawyer has a pretty big fight on his hands, not gonna lie.
BREAKING - Karmelo Anthony suffers a major blow in court after his defense attorney, Mike Howard, attempted to argue that Austin Metcalf was responsible for his own stabbing and had essentially “impaled himself,” prompting an audible gasp from jurors in the courtroom.
Cancer is the cruelest disease, because it appears as part of the host body. The reality, of course, is that it is an insidious invader. The hordes of Muslim invaders welcomed by Democrats into America are a Sharia Law cancer.
And it is spreading like only a cancer can.
🚨Breaking:
Florida nurse anesthetist Erik Martindale had his nursing license voluntarily relinquished (effectively revoked) by the state after he posted that he would deny anesthesia to Trump/MAGA supporters.
His license is now inactive.
🚨 I'll be blunt: see this asshole on the right? The one with the spectacles? The one joining hands with former Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, the U.S.-designated terrorist?
That's Badar Khan Suri. He's a professor at Georgetown University. He's from INDIA.
He's not a citizen of the United States. Let me say that again: HE IS NOT A CITIZEN, HE IS A CITIZEN FROM INDIA.
After Joe Biden stole the election, Khan Suri was handed a visa and allowed into the United States as a visiting scholar and postdoctoral fellow at Georgetown.
He was arrested by ICE for alleged ties to Hamas and promoting their propaganda, but released by one of Biden's commie judges.
He now speaks at events trashing our country. He whines about his time in ICE detention, and paints agents as Nazis.
His wife is the daughter of a former Hamas official.
He's still employed by Georgetown. The campus is about to receive over $1 BILLION in federal funding.
A Fox News investigation has uncovered that 90% of the H1-B visas given to citizens of India are obtained through fraudulent credentials.
If DHS had any sense, they'd look into this. Fast.

She went viral herself, so let’s help her out a little bit more!
Meet US Army PFC Fariah Brewer, a hijab-wearing service member, who while in uniform indicated she would REFUSE commands if they targeted Muslims, giving a thumbs-up in response.
She is an active-duty soldier who converted to Islam in late 2023 and made the statement in a live discussion.
US military regulations require obeying lawful orders; publicly stating intent to refuse them violates the enlistment oath and provides grounds for investigation or discharge.
@DeptOfWar … WeThePeople don’t want traitors among our truly brave and loyal soldiers. Please inform us of when US Army PFC Fariah Brewer is dishonorably discharged!
Horrifying medical malpractice by Indian doctor named Ashok Muralidaran
at OHSU. A 13-year-old Oregon girl’s heart valve was implanted upside down during surgery by Dr. Ashok . Her heart wouldn’t restart. For 18 days she was on life support while doctors told her devastated parents she was dying, discussed end-of-life care, and even organ donation.
Seattle Children’s fixed the catastrophic error in one procedure. Her heart started working immediately. She’s now making a “miraculous recovery.”
This level of negligence is unforgivable. Praying for full healing for this brave girl.

This is the Indian doctor who implanted a heart valve upside down in a child, and his education was completed in India. In India, a person only needs to earn 40% to pass, which is basically an ‘F’ in the U.S.
Medical Degree: M.B.B.S., 1999, Madras Medical College, Chennai, India.
Internship: General Surgery, Government General Hospital, Chennai, India (2001).
After heart surgery, the parents of a 13-year-old girl were told that their daughter was dying, and that they should start making end-of-life decisions, including donating her organs.
Upon transferring their daughter to another hospital however, they were told that doctors at Oregon Health and Science University had installed her new heart valve upside down.
“Doctors at Seattle Children's removed the inverted valve and replaced it with a different one, properly positioned. Her heart promptly began to function correctly. She was successfully taken off cardiac bypass and no longer required ECMO.
Her condition continued to stabilize over the following days in Seattle Children's ICU. After more than a month in critical condition, she was able to return home with her parents.”
In Alaska, ranked-choice voting survived by just 743 votes.
That razor-thin margin is exactly why Lisa Murkowski keeps pushing mail-in voting and fighting against voter ID and election integrity laws.
When every vote is that easy to harvest or question, close races become a lot easier to “manage.”
Coincidence? Sure. 🙄
“Alaska Bush Pilot Ken Jouppi: 13-Year Fight Over a Six-Pack of Beer Heads to Supreme Court”
I know Ken Jouppi personally — my plane was tied up right next to his at the airport in fairbanks, Alaska. He’s a veteran bush pilot, a hardworking American who’s spent decades flying in one of the toughest environments on earth. The photo of him smiling with that fox says it all: a true Alaskan character living the frontier life.
Back in 2012, a passenger brought a six-pack of beer onto Ken’s 1969 Cessna Skywagon as cargo for a flight into a dry [village has an ordnance that does not allow alcoholic] Native village.
Alaska state troopers seized the entire $95,000 plane under civil asset forfeiture laws, even though Ken wasn’t bootlegging for profit and the beer never reached its destination. He was convicted of a minor violation, but the state has spent over a decade trying to keep his livelihood.
Now, at 82 years old, this veteran is taking his case to the U.S. Supreme Court with the Institute for Justice, arguing the forfeiture violates the Eighth Amendment’s Excessive Fines Clause.
It’s a classic example of government overreach punishing hardworking citizens while real criminals walk free.
Ken’s story highlights the need for serious civil asset forfeiture reform. Americans shouldn’t lose their property over minor infractions. Praying for justice for this Alaskan legend.
