A rabid mountain lion is reportedly wanted by Colorado Parks and Wildlife Services as the feline allegedly attacked a man who was in the hot tub of a rental home.

The man who was attacked told officials with the Colorado Parks and Wildlife that he was jumped around 8 p.m. last Saturday while in a “hot tub” with his wife.

According to a news release, the individual “felt something grab his head.” When the lovers saw the beast, they screamed and sent water to him so that he left the place. The woman even turned on the light on her cell phone to see what animal it was, and that’s when the cougar fled.

“We think it’s likely that the cougar saw the man’s head moving in the darkness at ground level, but did not recognize the people in the hot tub. The couple did the right thing by making noise and shining a light on the cougar,”said Sean Shepherd, wildlife manager for the area.

As for the man’s injuries, he escaped with four scratches described as superficial on the top of his head and near one of his ears!

Sentenced to 11 years in prison for fraud and conspiracy to defraud, her imprisonment will then begin as scheduled at the end of April.

The story and arrest of Elizabeth Holmes has captivated the world and has since been the subject of several documentaries and even a miniseries, starring Amanda Seyfried, airing on Hulu in 2022.

Holmes, along with her lover and accomplice Sunny Balwani, swindled investors out of millions of dollars by claiming that her invention was revolutionary in screening for several diseases with a single blood test in her machine… when she knew full well that the machine in question did not work at all.

Although her lawyer stated that she posed no danger to the public, the judge explained that the basis on which Holmes is seeking an appeal is so weak that it is unlikely to change anything for her.

He then imposed that her incarceration proceed as scheduled on April 27.

Canada’s Prime Minister got into a heated discussion with a young Conservative (a PPC fan actually) during a visit to the University of Manitoba.

In a video first posted on Reddit, Justin Trudeau cordially answers questions from a young individual identifying himself as a member of the Conservative Party of Canada.

The young Conservative is visibly trying to pin the Prime Minister down on difficult topics, but instead finds himself doubting his own beliefs the further the conversation goes.

In an argument that begins with the dental program to help low-income families, the Prime Minister asks his interlocutor if he agrees with that and as the youngster deflects from his initial answer to finally say that he “thinks they should”, he is reminded by the Prime Minister that Pierre Poilièvre, the leader of the Conservative Party, voted against this assistance program.

As the conversation drifts to abortion, the young man, who identifies as a Christian, says women should not have the right to choose what happens to their own bodies and that is when the PM goes for the knockout.

Of course, the young man still has several years ahead of him to mature his thoughts on these very important issues for women and Canadian society.

And the Prime Minister seems to be looking pretty good, in those little and big debates, lately!

The FBI has arrested the person responsible for the leak of classified documents that has plagued the U.S. government for several weeks.

The 21 year old man, Jack Teixeira, would indeed be responsible for having published on Reddit classified documents of the Pentagon.

Attorney General Garland indeed confirmed that the young man, who was part of the Massassuchetts Air National Guard, was arrested in connection with “an investigation into allegations of unauthorized deletion, retention and transmission of classified national defense information.”

Jack Teixeira was a member of a Reddit group formed during the pandemic, and according to CNN, a source who was part of that group says the document leak had been going on for several months, not a few weeks as authorities report.

Trump has been denying the allegations since 2019.

The disturbing documentary The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann released four years ago on Netflix was back in the news recently as a young woman claimed to be the missing girl.

Julia Wendell, a 21-year-old Polish woman, believed she was little Maddie and demanded a DNA test to prove it!

According to the young woman’s spokesperson in an Instagram post, Wendell’s family history was complicated and her questions were legitimate.

In fact, her parents reportedly refused to take a DNA test to temper their daughter’s questions.

But, Julia Wendell would not be Madeleine McCann since according to her DNA test, her origins are 100% Polish!

Let’s recall that the Netflix documentary tried to shed light on the disappearance of a three-year-old girl while she was on vacation with her parents in Portugal in 2007.

In 2020, a man had finally been identified as the main suspect in this case, but he was never arrested, due to lack of evidence.

However, Maddie’s parents are still hopeful that she will be found alive.

The documentary The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann is available on Netflix.
