ABUSE HELL I was sneaked into Parliament as a teen and offered to high-profile politician for sex, says grooming gang survivor

A GROOMING gang victim alleges she was smuggled into Parliament to be offered for sex to a high profile politician before being forced to sleep with men after party conferences as a teen.

The shocking claims have emerged in an internal police report admitting “failings” in handling her case after she told them what had happened to her.

And Parliamentary authorities also said they did not deal properly with her allegations which she made to her local MP in 2023.

Amelia told The Sun on Sunday she was sexually exploited as a young teen in Oldham, Greater Manchester, at the height of the town’s grooming gangs scandal.

She says by the age 16, gang members groomed and forced her to have sex with politicians and police officers, among hundreds of other men in a sickening campaign of abuse.

There appears to have been a ~20-year gap between the abuse and her reporting it, so taking this with a block of salt may be warranted.

The female who in 2019 claimed that DJT raped her when she was 13 was in 2019 interviewed 4 times by the FBI, and every version was substantially different, enough so that - Trump-Haters pretend this did not happen - the FBI concluded that she was lying. Wanting to believe a lurid claim cannot make the claim true.

China Reports Outbreak of Livestock Disease Near Russian Regions Hit by Mass Cattle Culling

China is tightening border controls and culling livestock in its northwestern Xinjiang region after detecting a small outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease, Reuters reported Friday, measures that come amid growing concern about possible cross-border spread following months of mass cattle culls in Russia.

Chinese officials reportedly said the highly contagious strain, which is immune to vaccines that are currently available domestically, likely entered “from abroad.” Xinjiang borders Russia, Mongolia and Kazakhstan, including a narrow frontier with the Siberian republic of Altai, adjacent to the Altai region, where most of Russia’s recent cattle culling has taken place.

China’s agriculture ministry said last week that 219 cattle across two herds of 6,229 tested positive for a variant of foot-and-mouth disease. Officials have since ordered culling and disinfection measures in Xinjiang and the neighboring Gansu province, as well as stepped up patrols to prevent the disease from entering through smuggling or the illegal transportation of livestock.

The outbreak follows the culling of roughly 90,000 head of cattle across nine Russian regions since February, with analysts estimating that around 80% were in the Altai region. Russian authorities have attributed the losses to rabies, pasteurellosis and other unspecified illnesses.

FMD (different from the foot-in-mouth disease that infests politicians and Prog MSM folk) is a virus that keeps mutating. It appears that existing vaccines - different variant, different vaccine - are of the protein sub-unit type. This means that the resistant variant in Central Asia would have to be cultured to produce enough of some particular virus protein that a vaccine could be tested and used. IOW, it might take a year or more for a vaccine that works with this new variant to come into quantity usage. Apparently, FMD vaccines' "immunity" only lasts for about a year.

Trump admin urges restoring ballroom construction in emergency motion: 'Time is of the essence'

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-admin-urges-restoring-ballroom-construction-emergency-motion-time-essence

The Trump administration filed an emergency motion to restore White House ballroom reconstruction, warning "time is of the essence" and saying President Donald Trump and his staff's "security and safety" are at risk by the judge's "untenable" ruling.

In the filing, Justice Department lawyers said the partially built project includes "deep Top Secret excavations, foundations, and structures" that must be completed quickly to protect sensitive construction and security features from exposure.

"This order is untenable and must be stayed in that the building is under construction, with deep Top Secret excavations, foundations, and structures, already built, and ready to receive heavily fortified, for security reasons, steel, bullet, ballistic, and blast proof glass, and drone proof roofing materials, which must be finished quickly, and not allowed to be exposed to the conditions and elements of an open construction site," Friday night's motion urges.

Someone may have to remind DU-grade Progs outraged that Trump is building underground structures under the new ballroom that FDR had underground facilities built under the East Wing he built.

Report: Group of Women Preparing to Accuse Rep. Swalwell of Harassment

https://hotair.com/john-s-2/2026/04/06/report-group-of-women-preparing-to-accuse-rep-swalwell-of-harassment-n3813608

We all remember the story of Fang Fang, the Chinese spy who allegedly approached Rep. Eric Swalwell when he was still a city council member in Dublin, CA. She allegedly helped with fundraising for his 2014 run for congress. In 2015, Swalwell got a tip from the FBI that Fang Fang was a spy and then cut off contact with her. Swalwell has repeatedly denied having any relationship with her beyond meeting her in a professional capacity.

Today there is another story apparently coming together behind the scenes involving Swalwell and alleged sexual harassment involving multiple women. What takes this past the rumors stage is that the person highlighting these claims is a progressive attorney named Cheyenne Hunt who runs a site called Gen Z for Change. She is on Swalwell's side of the aisle but says she found out about this issue because a personal friend came forward about it. She posted a video about it on Tik Tok which has since been re-posted on X.

The key allegation here, and again this hasn't been verified by any major news outlet yet, is that Swalwell has a habit of sleeping with his staffers and interns and then relying on an NDA to keep it quiet.

Last night, Cheyenne Hunt posted a thread on X going into more detail. Hunt says she is working with a group of women who are currently speaking with reporters about their experiences.

My confirmation bias is rather obvious, but I'll say that at this point, this story looks to be transitioning from rumor-grade to public accusation. It also looks to be at least some women from within the past decade. FWIW, Swillwell married his second wife in 2016. Details of his first marriage are not online that I could find. If claims of Swillwell having played mattress polo with Fang Fang are correct, Zipper-Wisdom and Swillwell are not close acquaintances.

Have to wonder how many of those Parliament members are listed in the Epstein Files.

Have to wonder how many of those Parliament members are listed in the Epstein Files.

Experience shows that these perverts don't just 'dabble' in their predilection. Once they figure out they can get away with their perversion, their impulse control is almost as non-existent as the average DUmp'Rat's.

You may safely bet the mortgage that if they were in Parliament back when Epstein was running his honey trap, they're in the 'Files.

Have to wonder how many of those Parliament members are listed in the Epstein Files.

Probably at least half of them.
