Lucem News Editor’s Opinion:
When someone screams “Free Palestine” while murdering Israelis at a museum, it’s not “protest,” it’s terrorism—plain and simple. This is exactly why allowing the “Free Palestine” people take over Ivy League campuses cannot be tolerated.

Lucem News Editor’s Opinion:
This was a person that could have revealed a lot of corruption in the current Ukranian government and possibly the Russian government. He could have been murdered by either government or others involved as well. Lets see if the investigatoin leads to possible motives.

Comer Vows Comprehensive Biden Investigations; Targets Both Known and Unknown.

Rep. James Comer, Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, is prepared to investigate Joe Biden’s family and administration. This opportunity comes now that Donald Trump is President and the House is likely to pass Trump’s budget bill. Prominent figures, including Hunter Biden and Biden’s advisors, will be questioned, either voluntarily or via deposition.

  • Targets include high-profile individuals and lesser-known figures.
  • Dr. Biden’s physician will also be investigated for Biden’s health reports.

Comer is eager to hold all accountable in the Biden investigations.

Lucem News Editor’s Opinion:
Looks like Comer’s going full Sherlock on the Biden clan—because when your family business smells like influence peddling, sunlight isn’t just the best disinfectant, it’s a subpoena waiting to happen.

Moderna Halts Flu-COVID Shot Approval Amid FDA Trial Requirement.

Moderna has withdrawn its application for FDA approval of its mRNA-1083 flu-COVID combination vaccine after the FDA required new clinical trials for COVID-19 boosters in healthy individuals under 65.

The company plans to resubmit the application once Phase 3 trial data of its mRNA-1010 flu vaccine is available.

  • Moderna aims to present interim data in the summer.
  • Shares dropped 1.4% following the announcement.
  • Regulatory scrutiny has increased since Robert F. Kennedy Jr. became the top U.S. health official.
  • Recently, Novavax’s COVID-19 vaccine was approved only for high-risk groups.

Lucem News Editor’s Opinion:
Looks like Moderna hit the brakes on their flu-COVID mega cocktail—turns out the FDA wants actual data before signing off. Hopefully the age of these potentially dangerous so called “vaccines” will get adequate testing before being allowed to be released, unlike the first 3 years of the COvid response.

US National Debt Skyrockets to Over $36 Trillion.

National Debt Alert: The U.S. national debt has surged to $36.2 trillion as of May 21, 2025. This rapid increase is a significant financial concern, as it reflects the massive levels of government spending. Compared to four decades ago, when the debt was merely $907 billion, the current figures signal alarming fiscal mismanagement. Interest payments now eclipse both Medicare and defense budgets.

The Congressional Budget Office predicts an escalation to $54 trillion, urging a reconsideration of fiscal policies. Economist Peter Morici emphasizes understanding the debt’s implications for Americans.

Lucem News Editor’s Opinion:
We’ve officially maxed out Uncle Sam’s credit card, and now the interest payments alone are bigger than what we spend defending the country—because apparently, debt was the only thing Biden’s handler’s knew how to “build back”.
