A congressional map model making the rounds on social media this weekend is turning heads for one very simple reason: it shows Republicans winning 280 House seats. The map, shared by conservative commentator Eric Daugherty on May 10, applies compact, population-based district boundaries across the country without partisan gerrymandering. The result is a staggering 124-seat gap between Republicans and Democrats. Under the model, Democrats hold just 156 seats, with zero tossups. That is the kind of map that would give Republicans a governing majority so large it would reshape what is possible in Congress.

There is a certain kind of person who hears that someone tried to kill the President of the United States and thinks the appropriate response is disappointment that the shooter failed. A woman identified in reports as Alison King, formerly a social media manager at UnitedHealthcare, is learning the hard way that the internet does not forget and employers do not appreciate that kind of commentary attached to their brand. King’s original TikTok video, posted after the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner on April 25, resurfaced widely across social media in recent days. The clip featured her reacting to the news of the shooting with the now-infamous line: “Aww, they missed?” 'Aw, they missed?' Woman fired for viral TikTok joking about assassination attempt against Trump The former United Healthcare worker then called out Trump for his 'violent rhetoric' in a follow-up video.https://t.co/iYtaTw6M59 — Ma'at (@Maat93489673) May 10, 2026 Fox News broke down the full story of the firing and the shooting that prompted it: UnitedHealthcare terminated a woman after a TikTok video surfaced showing her reaction to the attempted assassination of President Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner. The woman was identified in reports as Alison King, who had reportedly worked as a social media manager for the health insurance giant. Her LinkedIn account was deleted after the video gained national attention. In the original clip, King said her first reaction to the shooting news was to wonder whether the incident was even real. She then delivered the line “Aww, they missed?” about the attack on the president and added, “That’s when you know we’re cooked.” UnitedHealthcare responded by telling Fox News Digital that violence is never acceptable and that comments suggesting otherwise do not reflect the company’s mission and values. The company confirmed that the person who made the online comments about the Saturday night incident was no longer employed. Fox News Digital reached out to King directly, and she declined to comment. The shooting took place at the Washington Hilton during the dinner, which President Trump attended. The suspected gunman, Cole Tomas Allen, was arrested after authorities said he opened fire at the event. Allen was facing life in prison, and law enforcement sources said he wanted to target Trump administration officials. Let that sink in. A man opened fire at an event the president was attending with the reported goal of targeting Trump administration officials, and King’s instinct was to crack jokes about the shooter’s aim. UnitedHealthcare, a company that has dealt with its own share of public relations crises, apparently decided in short order that King’s commentary was a fireable offense. The company moved quickly, and few reasonable people would argue they got it wrong. 'Aw, they missed?' Woman fired for viral TikTok joking about assassination attempt against Trump https://t.co/14aZfuoKyW pic.twitter.com/UYfu7P8vQB — TheBlaze (@theblaze) May 8, 2026 The story did not end with the firing. King posted follow-up videos in the days after losing her job, and the tone shifted from flippant to aggrieved. WND reported on the follow-up videos and the fallout King described: King posted multiple videos addressing the original clip and the national backlash it generated. In one, she described the original post as a “stupid video about the president,” said “the far right” found it and posted it on X, and said she lost her job as a result. She told viewers she wanted to move forward, expressed regret about posting the clip, and said she did not condone violence. She also described being doxxed and said she received a letter containing a picture of her house. She complained that people were contacting her and leaving hateful messages. King then turned her criticism outward, arguing she was being held more accountable for a “stupid internet comment” than the people sending her threatening messages and more accountable than President Trump himself, whom she accused of “violent rhetoric.” One of the videos ended with her asking people to leave her alone. In another clip, she said she refused to dwell on the fallout but acknowledged she had no idea what her career would look like going forward. The irony here is thick enough to cut with a knife. King posted a public video joking about the assassination of a sitting president, and when the public responded with outrage and her employer responded with a pink slip, she cast herself as the victim. She said she did not condone violence in the same breath she accused the president of violent rhetoric, as if that somehow balanced the scales. Nobody should be sending threats or pictures of someone’s house. That goes without saying. King’s framing of the situation, however, reveals the mindset that made the original video possible in the first place. In certain corners of the left, hostility toward President Trump has been so normalized for so long that joking about a real assassination attempt felt like a casual, consequence-free take. The shock for King was never that she said it. The shock was that anyone held her accountable for it. Many Americans watched a man try to murder the president at one of Washington’s most prominent annual events, and their reaction was horror. King’s reaction was a punchline. UnitedHealthcare made the right call, and the fact that King is still making TikTok videos complaining about the fallout rather than genuinely reckoning with what she said tells you everything you need to know about where her head is. Actions have consequences. Words posted to the internet for the world to see have consequences. Joking about the attempted murder of President Trump is ugly, and it deserves exactly the kind of accountability King received.

If you or someone you love had COVID-19 – or received a COVID-19 vaccine – and has since experienced unexplained headaches, memory problems, brain fog, or cognitive decline, this may be the most important thing you read today. A growing body of medical research is now drawing a direct connection between SARS-CoV-2 spike protein exposure and a serious neurological condition called Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy – or CAA. And most doctors aren’t talking about it. What Is Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy?  Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy is a condition in which abnormal protein deposits – amyloid – accumulate in the walls of the brain’s blood vessels. When those deposits build up, the vessels become fragile. Brittle. Prone to leaking or rupturing entirely. The results can range from subtle cognitive changes and persistent brain fog to full-blown strokes, seizures, and in the most severe cases, life-altering neurological damage. CAA has historically been associated with aging and Alzheimer’s disease. It was considered a condition that developed slowly, over decades, in elderly patients. That understanding is now being rewritten. The COVID Connection Nobody Is Talking About  Researchers studying post-COVID neurological complications have identified something deeply alarming: SARS-CoV-2 spike protein – whether from infection or from vaccination – appears to trigger inflammatory and amyloidogenic processes in the brain’s vasculature. In plain language: spike protein exposure may be accelerating the exact kind of abnormal protein buildup in brain blood vessels that defines CAA. Cases of CAA are appearing in patients who are younger than historically expected. Patients with no prior neurological history. Patients whose only known risk factor is a COVID-19 infection or vaccination in the preceding months or years. The timeline is not subtle. The pattern is not random. And for millions of Americans still carrying spike protein in their systems – right now, today, years after their initial exposure – the question is urgent: What is that spike protein doing to your brain? Dr. McCullough Has Been Warning About This  Dr. Peter McCullough – one of the most published cardiologists in America, and one of the few physicians willing to speak openly about spike protein pathology – has been raising the alarm about neurological complications from persistent spike protein for years. In his clinical practice, he sees it regularly: Patients with brain fog that won’t lift. Patients with memory problems that started after COVID. Patients with headaches, cognitive changes, and neurological symptoms that their other doctors are dismissing, misdiagnosing, or simply unable to explain. His position is consistent and unambiguous: Spike protein is not benign. It does not simply disappear. And for a significant number of patients, it is actively driving pathological processes — including, the research now suggests, the vascular amyloid accumulation that defines CAA. If you are experiencing symptoms consistent with spike protein pathology – including the kind of cognitive and neurological symptoms now associated with CAA – Dr. McCullough’s recommendation is clear. The Protocol Dr. McCullough Developed For His Own Patients  For nearly four years, Dr. McCullough has been searching for compounds capable of addressing spike protein accumulation in the body. The research led him to three molecules with specific, documented mechanisms of action against the biological processes spike protein drives: Nattokinase – a fibrinolytic enzyme derived from fermented soybeans, shown in research to degrade spike protein directly and support healthy blood flow in vessels where abnormal protein accumulation is a concern. Bromelain – a proteolytic enzyme from pineapple with demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties and the ability to break down protein aggregates of the kind implicated in vascular amyloid pathology. Curcumin – the active compound in turmeric, one of the most extensively studied natural anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective agents in the literature, with specific research supporting its role in inhibiting amyloid formation and protecting cerebrovascular integrity. These are not random supplements. These are molecules selected specifically because their mechanisms of action address the biological processes – protein aggregation, vascular inflammation, amyloid accumulation – that the research is now linking directly to post-COVID neurological complications including CAA. Dr. McCullough formulated them into a single product: Ultimate Spike Detox, produced by The Wellness Company in the United States. What Patients Are Reporting  The research is compelling. But the patient outcomes are what matter most. “I feel like I have had brain fog for the past 18 months and after taking this supplement noticed the fog finally lifting. I plan to buy more for myself and now for a friend suffering from heart issues.” Read that again. Eighteen months of brain fog – exactly the kind of persistent cognitive symptom now associated with spike protein-driven neurological pathology – beginning to lift after starting Ultimate Spike Detox. “I saw Dr. McCullough talk about the product and decided to give it a try. A month and a half later, I feel sooo much better. I also have recommended the product to family members to help them detox from the painful side effects of the vaccine.” “We ordered your spike protein cleanse for our patients who took a couple of COVID-19 vaccinations. After about two weeks of them taking the supplements, their appetites increased and our mother with diagnosed heart issues claimed she wasn’t getting dizzy anymore.” “Excellent product!!! Worked wonderfully! I’m so thankful for TWC! I got my health back!” “I am grateful for The Wellness Company and for you coming out with this spike protein supplement. I am a big believer in natural healing and not pharmaceutical drugs. Thank you for doing what is right and for speaking truth in a world that is so dark.” These are not people reporting minor improvements. These are people describing the return of cognitive clarity, physical function, and quality of life they had lost – in some cases, for years. The Window You Cannot Afford To Miss  Here is what makes the CAA research so urgent: Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is a progressive condition. Amyloid deposits in blood vessel walls do not resolve on their own. They accumulate. The damage compounds over time. The research suggests that the inflammatory and amyloidogenic processes driven by spike protein are most effectively addressed early – before deposits have time to consolidate, before vessel walls have been structurally compromised, before the window for meaningful intervention narrows. Every month of elevated spike protein circulating in your system is another month of potential accumulation. This is not the moment to wait and see. What To Do Right Now  If you have been infected with COVID-19, received a COVID-19 vaccine, or are experiencing cognitive symptoms, brain fog, headaches, memory problems, or any of the neurological signs now associated with post-COVID spike protein pathology – take action. Order Ultimate Spike Detox from The Wellness Company. It contains the full McCullough Protocol formulation – nattokinase, bromelain, and curcumin — in the researched combination, at therapeutic concentrations, manufactured in the United States under quality standards you can verify. It is the only product built directly on the published science of spike protein detoxification. And it is backed by Dr. McCullough’s own clinical experience, thousands of patient outcomes, and a satisfaction guarantee from a company that has staked its reputation on getting this right. From The Doctor Who Wouldn’t Back Down  Dr. McCullough lost colleagues. He lost institutional affiliations. He spent years being attacked by the very medical establishment he had spent his career serving. He kept talking anyway. Because the patients sitting in front of him deserved the truth. Because the research was too important to bury. Because the consequences of doing nothing – for the millions of Americans carrying spike protein right now, experiencing symptoms their doctors can’t explain, potentially developing conditions like CAA that nobody warned them about – were simply too serious. The research on spike protein and Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy is still emerging. But the direction it is pointing is not ambiguous. If you have been exposed to spike protein – through infection, through vaccination, or both – your brain’s blood vessels may be at risk in ways that will not announce themselves loudly until significant damage has already been done. Ultimate Spike Detox is available now. Made in America. Built on published science. Backed by the doctor who told the truth when it cost him everything. Click here to order your supply today.

A possible boat explosion occurred in Florida on Saturday. Authorities in Florida reported nearly a dozen people have been hospitalized after a boat reportedly exploded near Miami. The incident prompted a response from both fire rescue teams and the Coast Guard where the boat is believed to have exploded. AP reported more details on the explosion: About a dozen people were taken to hospitals with injuries Saturday after a boat explosion near Miami, the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue agency said. The charter boat was in Biscayne Bay, near Haulover Sandbar, when the blast erupted on board, according to preliminary information from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. More than two dozen rescue units responded in the afternoon and “encountered multiple patients requiring medical attention,” Miami-Dade Fire Rescue said in a statement. It said it transported 11 people to hospitals. Neither agency provided any information about the condition of those who were injured. The state Conservation Commission said an investigation is underway. ABC reports: At least 15 people were injured following a possible boat explosion at a popular south Florida sandbar near Miami. An investigation on what sparked the blast is now underway. @morganorwood reports on the Level 2 Mass Casualty Incident. https://t.co/wj0wXza9Bd pic.twitter.com/Q4XnYA1C6D — World News Tonight (@ABCWorldNews) May 9, 2026 The incident was initially reported as a mass casualty event: TERRIFYING | Boat explosion at Miami sandbar triggers mass casualty response, 11 hospitalized https://t.co/GBkcPOY29E pic.twitter.com/ubP8U3Q1Jt — News 4 San Antonio (@News4SA) May 10, 2026 CBS News provided a statement from a witness: Nearby boat charter Patrick Lee said he witnessed the incident. “We saw three people fly out of the boat,” Lee said. “So this guy got in a hurry, and his people got on board, and he turned the key, and didn’t open the hatches. Didn’t turn on the blowers and he blew people out the boat.” Lee said the boat was surrounded in flames within minutes, adding that several people were taken away on stretchers by paramedics. “I just saw a lot of them with burns all over them, and I said that it’s a hot fire,” Lee said. “It is quick, but it’s high octane gasoline, and so a lot of them got burnt and it was an explosion.” According to media partner, The Miami Herald, the boat was docked near the Haulover Marine Center a few hours after the incident. The Miami Herald identified the boat as a Press Cruiser 400 Express, a 40-foot cabin cruiser called Nauti Nabors, from Sherman, Texas. According to the Herald, which cites the U.S. Coast Guard database, the vessel was certified for recreational use. FWC tells CBS News Miami that the boat was a charter vessel. As investigators continue to investigate, we will provide you with updates. What’s your view?

Erika Kirk is back in the headlines. CEO of TPUSA Erika Kirk made her first public appearance since attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where she was seen leaving the event in tears after a gunman opened fire in an alleged assassination attempt against President Trump. In her first public outing since the shooting, Kirk delivered a commencement speech at Hillsdale College. Erika Kirk was selected to deliver the speech due to the fact her husband Charlie promoted and praised the college throughout his career due to the college’s aim to teach conservative values. The New York Post covered more on Erika’s speech and revealed what she told the students: Charlie Kirk’s widow Erika called on the next generation of Christian scholars to follow in her husband’s footsteps and pursue truth and “defend liberty” during her commencement speech at Hillsdale College Saturday. Even though a twisted assassin took his life, her husband’s spirit endures, the Turning Point USA CEO told the graduates. “Through his learning, Charlie was better able to recognize his duty to pursue truth and to defend liberty, and this responsibility he felt to God. He felt it for our family, to our country, and that was born from what he learned.” She implored Hillsdale College’s 400-person graduating class to uphold those traditional values as they enter the workforce and to marry one another young. “As you continue forward in life, I want you to kind of embrace the similar blueprint of my husband, where he loved to point out that God made us purposeful beings and continue forward in life with clarity and intention,” she said. Here’s a clip of the speech: ERIKA KIRK says it PERFECTLY during her commencement speech at Hillsdale College — a place Charlie loved: "I want you embrace the similar blueprint of my husband, where he'd love to point out that God made us purposeful beings."

Newsweek reported more on Kirk’s comments on Owens: Conservative influencer Candace Owens has pushed back after Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk called her out in a video in which she addressed the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. In the video, Kirk hit out at headlines about her, slammed a recent comedy sketch by the comedian Druski, and criticized Owens. “Every morning I wake up to a new headline lying about me. I have comedians dressing up in white face, I have people saying I’m not fit to be CEO, and I have Candace Owens claiming I murdered my husband,” she said in the video. By way of response, Owens, who has frequently been critical of Kirk in the months that have followed the assassination of her husband, Charlie Kirk, wrote that Kirk’s video was “uncomfortable to watch,” and “painful.” She also denied ever having made the claims Kirk alluded to, saying: “Of everything I’ve said about Erika she chooses to respond to something I never said.” In a statement shared with Newsweek, Owens said: “Erika’s address yesterday was an unmitigated disaster. Demanding retribution for comedic skits, followed by a bald-faced lie about what I have accused her of, only furthers the public sense that she is untrustworthy and, frankly, dangerous.” Watch Erika’s full commencement speech here: Any thoughts?
