Shad Gaspard’s wife breaks silence after former WWE superstar is found dead on Venice Beach

US to React Strongly If Beijing Moves Ahead with Hong Kong National Security Law: Trump

President Donald Trump said on May 21 the United States would react strongly if China follows through on plans to impose a new national security law on Hong Kong. Critics say the move would further erode the city’s autonomy and allow the regime to crack down on dissident voices under the pretext of safeguarding security. Zhang Yesui, spokesperson for the regime’s rubber-stamp legislature, the National People’s Congress (NPC), announced on May 21 evening that the body will propose a bill to “establish and improve the legal system and enforcement mechanism for safeguarding the national security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.” “If it happens, we’ll address that issue very strongly,” Trump told reporters Thursday before leaving the White House. Further details of the law will be released on Friday,…

The wife of former WWE superstar Shad Gaspard broke her silence on May 21, one day after the wrestler’s body was found on a Southern California beach.

“Shad was our whole world and we were his,” Siliana Gaspard said in a statement. “There are not enough words to describe what he means to all of us. He was our heart, our soul, our protector, our warrior. He was a bright force of nature, who brought joy to many through his joyous and gracious nature.”

She said the “outpouring of love” from friends, colleagues, and fans around the world “has meant more to us than you can even imagine.”

“Shad was and will always be our real life super hero,” she said.

Gaspard, 39, went missing on Sunday after he had been swimming in nearby Marina Del Rey with his 10-year-old son Aryeh. The two had gotten caught in a rip current, lifeguards said.

Aryeh was rescued, but Gaspard’s body was unable to be located until it was found on Venice Beach early Wednesday, one week after Los Angeles County reopened its beaches.

The beaches, which now permit physical activities such as running, swimming, and walking, had been closed in order to combat the spread of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.

A Twitter account for the Los Angeles County Fire Department’s lifeguard division said they performed 452 ocean rescues the weekend Gaspard went missing—marking “a busy weekend at the beach.”

Gaspard is best-known for being a member of the wrestling team Cryme Tyme with fellow WWE star JTG, which debuted in 2006. After leaving WWE in 2010, he pursued an acting career and appeared in the films “Think Like a Man Too” and “The Last Sharknado: It’s About Time,” according to IMDb.

Mental Health Crisis, Untreated Illnesses Take Toll as Shutdowns Linger

WASHINGTON—A new public health crisis has emerged amid the pandemic, although no models have been created yet to measure its potential impact. The implications of shutdown policies haven’t been discussed with nearly the same vigor as the risks related to the CCP virus, commonly known as the novel coronavirus—even though the death toll may well end up higher than from the virus itself. Research shows a clear link between the effects of a quarantine and stay-at-home practices on mental health, according to Dr. Elinore McCance-Katz, assistant secretary for mental health and substance abuse at the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). “The preservation of Americans’ health and the health of our citizens cannot be measured by only one metric. Virus containment cannot be our only goal,” McCance-Katz said…
