Three’s Company: British man discovered to have had three penises after death
A 78-year-old man unknowingly lived with three penises, a rare condition only discovered after his body was donated to science and examined by medical students at the University of Birmingham, who found the anomaly during dissection.
The condition, known as triphallia, had only been recorded once before—in a newborn baby in 2020. The man appeared to have normal genitalia, with two additional penises concealed within the scrotal sac.

Former reality TV star reveals plot to troll the left on transgenderism, ‘expose how gullible and delusional’ libs are
Josh Seiter, who appeared on The Bachelorette, recently revealed that his claim of being a trans woman was part of a social experiment aimed at exposing what he calls the "gullible and delusional" mindset of the left.
“I think a lot of trans women are turned on at the thought of themselves being women. Guess what? It doesn’t magically make them women,” Seiter said in a discussion on the BlazeTV podcast "Prime Time with Alex Stein.”
He explained that the last five months of his life have been a ruse, insisting that it was all about highlighting perceived absurdities surrounding the transgender community. “I faked being a faker. I pretended to be a pretender,” Seiter said.

❗️Vladimir Zelensky unveils so-called ‘Victory Plan’
The de facto president presented his five-step plan to Ukraine’s parliament:
1 – Ukraine should receive an immediate invitation to join NATO (good luck with that).
2 – Continuing military operations on Russian soil. However, Ukraine has already lost half of the territory it once held, according to reports.
3 – A non-nuclear deterrence package is set to be deployed, though the specifics are currently being kept secret. When presented to Russia, this measure is expected to bring Moscow to the negotiating table.
4 – A confidential economic plan involving the EU and the US aims to leverage Ukraine's economic potential, somehow leading to “peace through economic power.” (Huh?)
5 – Ukraine’s veteran military is to be used as NATO’s European defense contingent, potentially replacing American troops. (Interesting idea, how’s that mobilization going?)

US hesitates to intervene against Russian missiles in Ukraine over nuclear fears — Politico
Washington is holding back from shooting down Russian missiles over Ukraine due to concerns about escalating into a nuclear confrontation, according to reports from Politico citing Senate and White House sources.
The difference in US responses - acting boldly in Israel while being cautious in Ukraine - stems from the nuclear capabilities of Russia compared to Iran.
Additionally, the Pentagon recently announced it would not deploy THAAD air defense systems near Ukraine despite previously planning to send them to Israel.

Ukraine’s military outlook grim — London
According to the Daily Express, the British military is reportedly pessimistic about Ukraine's chances in the ongoing conflict, suggesting that Kiev is on the verge of defeat.
Despite Zelensky promoting his ‘victory plan’ to foreign leaders and gearing up to present it to lawmakers and the European Council this week, his aide Mikhail Podoliak noted that it won’t detail specific requests for weapons from allies.
While Britain has publicly backed Ukraine's stance against Russia, private assessments from British generals indicate a bleak outlook for the nation.
