Virginia Giuffre, recognized for her involvement in the Jeffrey Epstein case, remains in critical condition following a tragic car accident caused by a school bus collision.
Giuffre is battling critical injuries and kidney failure, expressing her wish to see her children as she receives care at a specialist hospital, the New York Post reported.
The accident has left Giuffre in a critical state, fighting for her life and grappling with kidney failure. The collision brought the attention back to a woman who has been at the center of one of the most high-profile legal battles relating to Epstein's notorious sex trafficking activities.
Known for her influential role in exposing the Epstein scandal, Giuffre was involved in a legal action dating back to 2015. Her accusations implicated various high-profile individuals, including Prince Andrew, who reportedly settled out of court with her in 2019. Despite Epstein's death, which was officially declared a suicide, Giuffre's allegations continue to resonate.
In the aftermath of the crash, a concerned Giuffre took to social media, sharing an image from her hospital bed. She vulnerably expressed her limited remaining time, stating, "I've gone into kidney renal failure, they've given me four days to live." Her longing to see her children is poignant, yet she laments the improbability of such wishes coming true within the time she perceives she has left.
Her father, Sky Roberts, voices unwavering support, a pillar for his daughter during this critical juncture. Roberts articulated his wish for her recovery and made clear his commitment to offering any assistance possible to ensure her well-being.
A spokesperson for Giuffre confirmed her hospitalization following the accident, emphasizing her appreciation for the outpouring of public support. Giuffre's situation has not only rallied friends and family but also caught the attention of the broader community.
Reflecting on her harrowing experience, Giuffre illustrated how the incident has intensified her hardships, notably her separation from her children. "Hurt me, abuse me but don’t take my babies," she shared, her words mirroring the anguish she's felt over the years.
Though Giuffre has been residing in Western Australia, her life has been constantly shadowed by her tumultuous history and ongoing challenges. She feels her children are being misled, adding to her distress.
Her plea, "My beautiful babies have no clue how much I love them," speaks volumes of her current emotional state, exacerbating an already dire situation.
The urgency surrounding Giuffre's medical condition has highlighted her courage throughout her battle against Epstein and his network. Her role as a whistleblower in the investigation has been crucial in laying bare the exploitation by Epstein and associates, including Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year sentence.
This incident underscores the unpredictability of life and the fragility experienced by Giuffre, once a resilient figure facing down intimidating societal forces. As she navigates this personal crisis, she continues to focus on her formative role in one of the 21st century's most significant legal and moral reckonings.
As she battles to recover, her story remains a steadfast reminder of both the courage required to bring justice to light and the personal toll it can exact on those who lead the charge. Giuffre’s continued appreciation for public support and expressions of love serve as a testament to her enduring spirit.
A small plane crashed into a suburban home in Minnesota, causing a fiery explosion that resulted in at least one death.
The house was totally destroyed, but the lives of the people inside were spared. The couple that owns the property in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota spoke to the media after surviving the harrowing ordeal.
The plane had departed from Des Moines and was headed for Minneapolis when something went terribly wrong around 12:20 p.m on Saturday.
Kenneth Tobacman was inside his kitchen when suddenly he heard a terrifying noise.
“All of a sudden there's a big boom,” Tobacman told Good Morning America. “The lights went out, and I saw a flash,” he continued. “Sparks or something or a little bit of smoke. I thought, 'What the hell?’”
In less than a minute, the whole house was "engulfed in flames," neighbor Sean Riddler said.
“I'd say I made it to the house in about 30 seconds from impact,” said Riddler on GMA. “It was already on fire. In probably another 30 to 45 seconds, the entire house was completely engulfed in flames.”
Luckily, Tobacman's wife, Mary Butler, was outside walking their dog when the plane hit.
“If she hadn't been, I probably could not have rescued her or the dog,” Tobacman said. “It happened that quickly. It's really fortunate that she was out when the plane hit.”
In an interview with NBC affiliate KARE, Butler said she was "blocks away" when she heard the impact. Her husband had escaped the house through the kitchen doorway - the door itself was already gone when he bolted out, he told her.
The couple lived in the home for 15 years, said Butler, adding they are currently living out of a hotel. While the couple and their dog made it out, their cat did not survive, Butler said.
It's unclear how many people have died. But no one on the ground was hurt, and authorities believe only one person, the pilot, was on board the plane.
The Socata TBM 700 was registered to a bank executive for U.S. Bank, Terry Dolan. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner has yet to identify the pilot.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with him, his family and friends, and anyone who may have been affected by yesterday's tragic incident," a spokesperson for U.S. Bank said. "We are grateful that there were not any injuries to residents of the home that was impacted by the crash, and we thank all the first responders who have provided service."
Democrats were making contingency plans for Joe Biden's death as far back as 2023, with one former White House aide drawing up a "death roster" even as his allies publicly downplayed worries about his health that would eventually doom his re-election.
According to the book Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House, some Democratic operatives were worried that Biden would die in office or else be forced to end his campaign.
One of those scenarios did come to pass, with Biden dropping his re-election bid during a summer of historic political upheaval that saw his rival Donald Trump survive two assassination attempts.
Long before Biden dropped out, the Democratic National Committee had considered a spectrum of scenarios, including the one that eventually became a reality: if Biden "left a vacancy at the top of the ticket after taking the nomination."
"In hush-hush talks starting in 2023, [DNC] officials gamed out Biden-withdrawal scenarios, according to two people familiar with them,” wrote Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes in their new book.
An aide to vice president Kamala Harris, Jamal Simmons, even drew up a "death-pool roster" of judges who could swear her in if Biden died in office.
Simmons did not tell Harris about the list before he left her team in January 2023, but he told colleagues to notify him right away if something happened to Biden because he had a communications strategy ready.
Despite the contingency planning, Democrats were seemingly caught off guard by Biden's meltdown during his only debate with Trump on CNN last summer.
Biden's presidency evaporated in 90 dramatic minutes as his cognitive deficiencies were laid bare on national television, sending his own party into a panic.
Until the fateful debate, Democrats vehemently denied that Biden was unfit for a second term. After Biden's disastrous performance, Democrats took a sharp pivot and eventually forced him to drop out. He endorsed Harris, who quickly won the backing of the party machine.
Democrats have partly blamed her decisive defeat to Trump on Biden and his reckless decision to seek another term, although Biden's health issues were obviously not a secret - certainly not to Democrats, who had the opportunity to watch him up close.
Days after the debate, Biden attended a fundraiser at the home of New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy (D), where Democratic supporters observed an alarming scene.
Biden needed fluorescent tape to guide him through the house, "colorful bread crumbs [that] showed the leader of the free world where to walk."
President Trump has made the difficult decision to remove a historic tree from the White House.
The southern magnolia tree, planted by Andrew Jackson according to tradition, is in "terrible condition," posing a safety hazard, Trump said.
While the tree must unfortunately come down, Trump said he plans to preserve the wood "for other high and noble purposes!!!”
Legend has it that President Jackson brought the seeds for the tree from the Hermitage, his home in Nashville, Tennessee.
The seventh U.S. president is said to have planted the tree, which stands outside the South Portico, in honor of his late wife Rachel, who died months before Jackson became president.
Jackson was president from 1829 to 1837. According to the National Park Service, the first photographic evidence of Jackson's magnolias date them to the 1860s.
"Working together with a fantastic and very talented Executive Residence Staff, along with the wonderful people at the National Park Service, we are making tremendous enhancements to the White House, thereby preserving and protecting History,” Trump said in his post.
“One of the interesting dilemmas is a tree planted many years ago by the Legendary President and General, Andrew Jackson. It is a Southern Magnolia, that came from his home, The Hermitage, in Tennessee.”
"The bad news is that everything must come to an end, and this tree is in terrible condition, a very dangerous safety hazard, at the White House Entrance, no less, and must now be removed,” Trump added.
“This process will take place next week, and will be replaced by another, very beautiful tree. The Historic wood from the tree will be preserved by the White House Staff, and may be used for other high and noble purposes!!"
President Trump has made no secret of his admiration for Jackson, who, like Trump, was known for his forceful personality and anti-establishment politics.
During a visit to the Hermitage in 2017, Trump drew direct parallels between his MAGA movement and Jackson's populism.
"It was during the Revolution that Jackson first confronted and defied an arrogant elite," Trump said at the time. "Does that sound familiar to you? I wonder why they keep talking about Trump and Jackson, Jackson and Trump. Oh, I know the feeling, Andrew."
Lately, Trump has shown more of an interest in President William McKinley, who oversaw America's expansion into a world power at the 20th century, winning overseas territories for the U.S in the Spanish-American War.
Trump has credited McKinley's tariffs with unleashing American prosperity during that time, an achievement Trump hopes to recreate as he ramps up a new trade war.

Those political leftists who are vandalizing Tesla vehicles, own by innocent passersby or maybe even their neighbors, because of their connection to Tesla corporation owner Elon Musk's work with President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, already are in trouble.
They're getting charged with a variety of crimes that include penalties of up to 20 years in jail.
One recent case involves Cooper Jo Frederick, 24, who was arrested in Plano, Texas, on suspicion of attacking a Tesla dealership recently in Loveland, Colorado.
Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the prosecution:
"Let this be a warning. You can run, but you cannot hide," Bondi said in a video message. "Justice is coming.":
The suspect is a resident of Fort Collins, Colorado, and is alleged to have ignited an incendiary device and hurled it at the dealership, narrowly missing several parked vehicles. It started a fire.
Bondi has explained, "I've made it clear (that) if you take part in the wave of domestic terrorism against Tesla properties, we will find you, arrest you and put you behind bars. All of these cases are a serious threat to public safety. Therefore, there will be no negotiation."
Now it's getting worse for the vandals.
A report from Fox News now documents how the owner of one of those vandalized Teslas is suing the suspect for $1 million in damages.
Suspect, Rafael Hernandez was arrested just a week ago on a criminal mischief charge by the Tarrant County District Attorney's Office "after he was recorded by the Tesla's built-in cameras striking the left side of the electric-powered vehicle," the report said.
In the video, Hernandez can be seen pulling an object out of his pocket and forcing it into the side of the Model X.
The lawsuit charges, "Individual owners of Tesla vehicles, like Plaintiff, are being targeted and victimized by ongoing criminal conduct and action. This has culminated in the 'Tesla Takedown' movement, where certain activists are urging consumers to divest from Tesla products and are organizing protests and other activities that are explicitly or implicitly urging physical damage and/or violence against Tesla owners and/or their Tesla vehicles. Plaintiff recently became a target and victim of this criminal conduct and action."
The report cited the plaintiff's lawyer, explaining, "Whether you're a Republican or a Democrat, this is a free country. You're entitled to drive whatever you want, as long as it's legal and within the confines of the law, and you should feel safe and secure in doing so, which, in my opinion, is why the authorities on the law enforcement side are taking these cases very seriously."
The lawyer pointed out the importance of consequences.
"It's a slippery slope, where does it end? Right? Fortunately, you know, my client's car was keyed. He wasn't injured himself, and he wasn't in the vehicle. But others haven't been so lucky, and so if this continues, you know, it's a fine line between having a civil society and chaos."

PALM BEACH, Florida – The father of high-profile Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre is speaking out upon learning his daughter claims she has "four days to live" after being hit by a school bus, leaving her with kidney renal failure.
"I'm sick to my stomach. I feel like crying because I love my daughter more than life," Sky Roberts told the Daily Mail from his Florida home.
"If there's anything I could do, I'd do it."
Roberts was reacting to a disturbing Sunday night Instagram post from Giuffre, who wrote:
"This year has been the worst start to a new year, but I won't bore anyone with the details but I think it important to note that when a school bus driver comes at you driving 110km as we were slowing for a turn that no matter what your car is made of it might as well be a tin can.
"I've gone into kidney renal failure, they've given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology. I'm ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time, but you know what they say about wishes.
"S**T in one hand and wish in the other & I guarantee it's still going to be s**t at the end of the day. Thank you all for being the wonderful people of the world and for being a great part of my life. Godbless you all."
Her post was somewhat mysterious, as it included no date or location of the incident.
Roberts also told the Daily Mail: "She's in really bad shape. She's very depressed … there's everything else she's been going through with the divorce and not being able to see her kids."
He said his son is "trying to get her spirits up so she doesn't just give up."
"I'm hoping she can hang on," he said.
"She's only 41. She's got a lot of life to live. She's got a lot of things left to do – she's helping people and helping other girls."
Roberts indicated he feels helpless being stuck at his home in Florida, without the funds needed to go to Australia to be with Virginia at this crucial time.
"There's nothing I can do from here," he said.
Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin announced the "shrine to environmental justice and climate change" has been permanently shuttered, Breitbart reported. Zeldin made this announcement in a video posted to X, formerly Twitter, on Monday.
President Donald Trump's EPA head has followed the lead of the Department of Government Efficiency to begin streamlining the agency. One of the many things he chose to cut was the EPA "shrine" created by President Joe Biden's administration.
"If you were to visit the museum located here at EPA headquarters in D.C., you would learn a lot about the road to environmental justice and climate change," Zeldin said. He noted the $4 million price tag and $600,000 in operating costs despite low numbers of visitors.
The Biden Admin spent $4M in tax dollars on a museum to tell a selective story of @EPA history. It costs $600K per year to operate even though only 1,909 external visitors came through in the last 9 months. Today we are closing it. pic.twitter.com/ghTQ2MQX4N
— Lee Zeldin (@epaleezeldin) March 31, 2025
In the video, Zeldin shared the details of this vanity project by the previous administration that also left out anything about gains during Trump's first term. "This museum claims EPA pursues its mission by advancing environmental justice, equity, and civil rights compliance," Zeldin noted.
"A timeline of key events conveniently omits any mention of President Trump’s first administration," he added. It also comes at an exorbitant cost to taxpayers. "This agency has been spending $123,000 on cleaning, $207,000 for security, $54,000 on maintenance, and an additional $54,000 on storage," Zeldin went on.
This cost was incurred as the museum only brought in 1,909 visitors in the period between May 2024 and February 2025. "Even though it is free admission, this museum costs you, the taxpayer, $315 per external visitor," Zeldin continued.
"I have pledged to be an exceptional steward of taxpayer dollars, so this shrine to EJ [environmental justice] and climate change will now be shut down for good. I will do my part to help the American people learn more about the amazing work of our agency to provide cleaner, healthier, and safer land, air, and water," he added.
"We will do so without paying over half a million in tax dollars on a museum that is barely visited and designed to tell an ideologically slanted partial story of the EPA," Zeldin pledged. He further promised that this would do his job without "burning tax dollars on pet projects that do nothing to help this agency achieve our mission of protecting human health and the environment."
Zeldin has already done impressive work streamlining the EPA since his confirmation in January. He is credited with saving almost $2 billion by eliminating "400 DEI and environmental justice grants."
The former congressman also found a $2 billion scheme involving failed Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams. "Stacey Abrams’ Power Forward Communities received $2 BILLION to be a pass through entity for Biden EPA’s $20 billion ‘gold bar’ scheme. They reported just $100 in total revenue after their founding in late 2023," Zeldin touted in February.
This comes as Elon Musk's DOGE seeks to cut as much as $4 billion per day from the federal spending budget to overcome a $1 trillion deficit, the New York Post reported. While Democrats claim that these cuts will harm the American people, Musk is confident it will help trim the fat from the government to make it more robust.
"This is a revolution, and I think it might be the biggest revolution in government since the original revolution. America will be solvent. The critical programs that people depend upon will work, and it’s going to be a fantastic future," Musk told Fox News' Bret Baier last week.
These agencies have been burning through taxpayer dollars for decades on the most ridiculous endeavors. It's about time people like Zeldin and Musk take the initiative to cut out expenditures that benefit nobody outside of government.
House Intelligence Committee Democrats are urging Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard to conduct an independent review after a journalist inadvertently added to Signal chat about a military attack, WPRI-TV reported. Ranking member Jim Himes (D-CT) sent a letter to Gabbard Monday demanding a written response.
The issue occurred because National Security Advisor Mike Waltz accidentally added an Atlantic journalist to the Signal chat with officials. They were discussing a strike on Houthi terrorists, and a recent Wall Street Journal report later noted that Israel provided the intelligence for the attack.
"The U.S. ally complained to the United States that Mr. Waltz’s texts had become public. The Wall Street Journal’s reporting, if accurate, is deeply concerning. These developments underscore the need for the intelligence community, under your leadership, to conduct a parallel inquiry into the chat," the letter from Himes and 11 other members said to Gabbard on Monday.

— House Intelligence Committee (@HouseIntelDems) March 31, 2025
The White House has already cleared up the matter of the group chat and moved on. "This case has been closed here at the White House, as far as we are concerned," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday.
However, the committee members believe the new information about a reaction from Israel warrants further investigation. "Since you and other intelligence community leaders testified about the group chat before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence last Wednesday, there have been new developments," the letter said.
The letter cited the Wall Street Journal's assertion that "Waltz sent texts on the Signal chain following the attack—noting the U.S. had ‘positive ID’ that the building in which the operative was located had collapsed—that may have been linked to information from that source." Himes and the undersignors noted that Israel was not happy that the information "became public."
According to the Wall Street Journal, Waltz gave specific information that was later disclosed to the public because of the Signal chat. "The first target—their top missile guy—we had positive ID of him walking into his girlfriend’s building and it is now collapsed," Waltz had written in the chat.
However, Waltz has insisted, "No classified information was included in the thread." Waltz added that "the messages have no locations, no sources and methods, and no war plans. Foreign partners had already been notified strikes were imminent."
National security is of the utmost importance, and a blunder like this one is certainly worth investigating. However, it appears the left is hammering President Donald Trump with this story for political points.
The Hill reported that Trump called out the media for this in a post to his Truth Social on Sunday, calling their "never-ending" fascination with it "old and boring." He lauded Senate Armed Services Committee member Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) for coming to his defense.
"A GREAT job by Senator Markwayne Mullin on beating back Kristen Welker’s, and the Radical Left’s Witch Hunt, on the never ending Signal story," Trump said Mullin's response to NBC's Welker. "They just don’t stop – Over and over they go!" Trump added.
"This story and narrative is so old and boring, but only used because we are having the most successful ‘First One Hundred Presidential Days’ in the history of America, and they can’t find anything else to talk about. The Fake News Media has the lowest Approval Ratings in history, and for good reason," Trump said.
Democrats and their accomplices in the media will continue to pursue this story as long as it is politically expedient. Though serious, this mishap certainly was not as severe as they're making it out to be to rile up their anti-Trump base.
More alleged Tren de Aragua prisoners were sent to El Salvador's Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT) Sunday night, but a court order preventing President Donald Trump from using the Alien Enemies Act to do so was not violated in doing so.
A group of 17 suspected gang members was sent from Guantanamo Bay to the El Salvador supermax, and six other alleged gang members were also transferred.
Many of the detainees had already been convicted of rape or murder, while others were yet to go to trial.
Trump used Title 8 to send the prisoners out of the country, rather than using the Alien Enemies Act, which has been blocked by a federal judge for the time being.
"In order to keep the American people safe, @POTUS designated the Tren de Aragua and MS-13 as Foreign Terrorist Organizations," Rubio said on X. "These criminals will no longer terrorize our communities and citizens."
Keivis Jesus Arrecheder Vasquez, a Venezuelan national and an alleged leader of Tren de Aragua, was among the transferred prisoners, according to White House senior officials.
All of the prisoners were citizens of either El Salvador or Venezuela.
Trump took to Truth Social to thank El Salvador's president Nayib Bukele for "taking the criminals that were so stupidly allowed, by the Crooked Joe Biden Administration, to enter our Country, and giving them such a wonderful place to live."
The prison was opened by Bukele in 2023 in an effort to crack down on street gangs there.
It can hold up to 40,000 prisoners, but so far under 300 have been sent there from the U.S.
The prisoners there never get to go outdoors and the Associated Press said there aren't enough bunks for all of them.
There have been allegations of human rights abuses there, and the AP reported that 261 men have died in the prison since it opened.
Still, Trump is sending a message about what will happen to illegal immigrants who commit violent crimes in America.
"Every day, America becomes safer, thanks to the leadership of President Trump," Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement to reporters. "If you’re an illegal terrorist or criminal – the Trump administration is coming for you."
Pope Francis has demonstrated a surprising recovery following a serious bout with double pneumonia at the age of 88. He was hospitalized for five weeks due to a complex polymicrobial respiratory infection. Presently, he is recuperating in the Vatican, engaging in therapies and complying with medical directives to rest despite his progress.
Pope Francis was hospitalized on Feb. 14 after complications from bronchitis led to double pneumonia, with parts of his treatment being highly risky, Breitbart reported.
The pope's condition was particularly demanding given his age, mobility issues requiring a wheelchair, and history of lung surgery in his youth. Dr. Sergio Alfieri coordinated the intensive care provided to the pontiff during his extended stay at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital. A week into his admission, Pope Francis encountered a major respiratory crisis.
Despite the risks, a significant treatment decision was made that might have posed potential damage to the pope’s organs, a decision approached with his informed consent. Dr. Alfieri elaborated on this moment, sharing that Pope Francis, understanding the potential outcomes, looked at Massimiliano Streppetti, his personal health assistant, and confirmed, “We approve everything.” The treatment was imperative, though it carried the possibility of impairing his kidneys or affecting his bone marrow’s function.
On February 22, one of the critical incidents underscored the gravity of his health crisis, placing his life in serious jeopardy. Upon discharge, Pope Francis showed visible frailty, with notable struggles in mobility and reliance on supplemental oxygen remaining evident.
Since his return to the Vatican, there has been a noticeable strengthening in his voice alongside less dependence on oxygen therapy.
This improvement has encouraged those around him, providing a beacon of hope in his recovery process. Despite these positive strides, some residual effects persist, including limited arm mobility, attributed to an unspecified trauma before his hospitalization.
A fungal infection still requires ongoing treatment and is expected to take several months for full resolution. His recovery plan involves various therapies aimed at bolstering his physical, respiratory, and speech capabilities. Medical professionals advising the pope have strongly recommended a rest period of two months, emphasizing the importance of avoiding crowds to ensure a stable recovery.
Notwithstanding the improvements, Dr. Alfieri cautions that Pope Francis’s commendable dedication to his work might lead him to resume his duties prematurely. This potential scenario has prompted continuous consultations between Dr. Alfieri and the pope’s personal medical team. His weekly visits to Pope Francis remain a crucial part of the monitoring process, ensuring any health developments are swiftly addressed.
Dr. Alfieri has fondly described his interactions with the pope, recounting moments of humor and vitality, including a recent personal exchange wherein the pope joked, “Not 50, 40,” exhibiting his lively spirit. This blend of resilience and humor remains a defining characteristic during this challenging period.
The journey to recovery emphasizes the delicate balance between the pope’s desire to return to his papal duties and the necessity of allowing his body ample time to heal. Engaging in his recovery with the recommended restraint could prove pivotal in safeguarding his long-term health.
Pope Francis’s comprehensive recovery encompasses a timeline set by medical advice, campaigns of rest, and routine consultations with health specialists. His medical updates continue to be of significant interest both within the Vatican and globally amongst the Catholic community.
The remarkable nature of Pope Francis's recent health improvements serves as a testament to his resilience amid challenging circumstances. It also highlights the immense care provided by his medical team throughout this strenuous ordeal. As recovery progresses, the broader implications of his improved health status provide a beacon of hope for a swift return to better days.
With the ongoing commitment to rest and therapy, Pope Francis is likely to experience continued improvement in the coming months. This period also offers the pope an opportunity to reflect on his duties and health, ensuring a responsible approach to balancing both in the future.
