BIZARRE: Man Busted for Stealing Historic Cannon From Park to Pay Off His Drug Dealer

A man in Wichita, Kansas has been arrested for stealing a historic cannon from the Spanish-American War, in order to settle a debt with a drug dealer who was threatening him.
The story reads like something out of a movie.
After being unable to load the cannon into his car, he returned with tools and cut the cannon into pieces, then brought one of the pieces to the dealer in order to prove that he was trying to pay off his debt. The dealer was unimpressed.
FOX News reported:
Kansas man allegedly stole rare, historic 800-pound cannon from park for drug money: report
A Kansas man reportedly stole an 800-pound historic cannon from a local park for drug money, according to newly released court documents.
An arrest affidavit, obtained by KAKE News, states that Gordon Pierce III, 37, told Wichita police officers that he believed his life was in danger after a drug dealer claimed that Pierce owed him money, leading him to steal the cannon for money.
The report states that Pierce told police he went searching for copper statues to steal to make money to pay back the dealer and found the 800-pound cannon on the morning of April 2…
Due to the weight of the cannon, Pierce told police that he and the homeless man were unable to load the cannon into his Chevrolet Tahoe, according to the report. Pierce also told police he tried to pull the cannon with his SUV, but the chain kept snapping…
Pierce reportedly told police that over the next several hours he used a Sawzall to cut the cannon into four to five pieces, which he placed in his Tahoe, leaving the largest piece of the cannon in his friend’s garage.
Here’s a local video report:
This is why we can’t have nice things. Also, it bears repeating that most criminals are not very smart.

THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING PREMIER: UK’s Starmer Stumbles to His LOWEST Popularity Levels Ever, With 68% Disapproval of His Government and Only 13% Support

We had to update our cover since with 68% detractors and just 13% supporters, failing Keir Starmer’s popularity stands at a Net minus 55 points, his personal worst.
UK Labour party leader and Prime Minister Keir Starmer is getting less and less popular by the day.
With unchecked mass migration destroying communities, economic stagnation, crime epidemic, taxation going overdrive, and two-tier policing – to name just a few of the adverse effects of Starmer’s premiership – it’s no wonder that the United Kingdom citizens have turned away from him in droves.
And he was dealt a hard blow yesterday (11) as his government’s popularity collapsed to its lowest level until now.
Daily Mail reported:
“The Government’s approval rating slipped to minus 55, according to pollsters YouGov.
Just 13 per cent of the public included in the survey said they approved of the Government’s record since returning to power under Sir Keir last summer – the same percentage as the previous week. But those who disapproved slipped by another percentage point, [up] to 68 per cent.”
The government’s net approval rating has fallen to -55, Labour’s lowest score to date
Approve: 13% (= from 2-4 August)
Disapprove: 68% (+1)
Net: -55 (-1) pic.twitter.com/n2aQt2PL2j— YouGov (@YouGov) August 12, 2025
66% thinks Starmer’s party is ‘out of touch’.
66% of Britons now see Labour as out of touch, the highest level since YouGov began tracking the question in 2019
Out of touch: 66% (+3 from 7-9 June)
Neither: 11% (=)
In touch: 14% (=)https://t.co/U281J3QIgu pic.twitter.com/ypQdfu8MEt— YouGov (@YouGov) August 12, 2025
It has been officially confirmed that more than 50,000 migrants have arrived in the UK in 400 days of the Starmer government, and also that Labour freed more than 26,000 criminals as part of its early release scheme, including hundreds of serious offenders with long sentences.
“There have also been claims police under Labour have been treating certain right-wing protesters more severely than minority groups – a theory pushed by former Donald Trump ally Elon Musk.
And beleaguered shopkeepers have been told not to publicize the identities of suspected shoplifters, despite concerns over-stretched police are effectively powerless to clamp down on thieves.”

Victor Reacts: No Serious Nation Would Allow Its Capital to Be Plagued by Crime and Homelessness (VIDEO)
Wanting to stop crime is racist? Wanting our nation’s capital to be a place where citizens can go and petition their government or speak to their elected officials without being robbed is racist?
Well, according to Democrat Representative Jim Clyburn those goals are equal to Jim Crow 2.0.
The Gateway Pundit reported,
South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn has insisted that President Trump’s cleanup of Washington D.C. amounts to Jim Crow 2.0.
Trump deployed the National Guard to the streets of Washington D.C. in order to crack down on soaring crime and homelessness.
In an interview with MSNBC’s Alicia Menendez, Clyburn explained why this move represents a return to racial segregation of the past.
He explained: “You may recall, at the Democratic Convention, I spoke one evening and I said that Project 2025 is Jim Crow 2.0.”
The chair of the Washington police union, Greg Pemberton, has praised the intervention as a “a critical stopgap.”
“We stand with the President in recognizing that Washington, DC, cannot continue on this trajectory,” he said in a statement.
”Crime is out of control, and our officers are stretched beyond their limits.”
No serious nation would allow their capital to be plagued by homelessness and crime.
The President’s actions would not have been necessary if not for the failures of Democrat leadership in D.C.

DECLASSIFIED: Democrat Whistleblower Warned FBI That Adam Schiff Authorized Leaking Classified Information to Destroy Trump During Russia Hoax – Swalwell Also Played a Role in the Leaks

An unidentified Democrat whistleblower told the FBI that then-Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff approved leaking classified information to smear Trump, according to newly declassified FBI 302 interview reports obtained by Just The News.
Beginning in 2017, the intel officer who worked on the House Intelligence Committee repeatedly told the FBI that Schiff authorized leaking classified information to destroy Trump during the Russiagate hoax.
The whistleblower said Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell was likely the source of the classified leaks.
At the time of the leaks, Adam Schiff served as the ranking member (and later the chairman) of the House Intelligence Committee. Schiff is now a US Senator for California.
The Gateway Pundit repeatedly reported on Schiff’s leaks to the media during the Trump-Russia witch hunt.
According to the newly declassified FBI report, DOJ officials did not show any interest in probing Schiff over his illegal leaks.
The whistleblower told the FBI as recent as 2023 that he personally witnessed Adam Schiff approve the leaking of classified information.
“When working in this capacity, [redacted staffer’s name] was called to an all-staff meeting by SCHIFF,” the interview report said, according to Just The News. “In this meeting, SCHIFF stated the group would leak classified information which was derogatory to President of the United States DONALD J. TRUMP. SCHIFF stated the information would be used to indict President TRUMP.”
The whistleblower also told federal agents that Schiff was promised the posiition as CIA Director if Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election.
The Democrat whistleblower was abruptly fired for reporting Schiff’s leaks to the FBI.
Just The News reported:
A career intelligence officer who worked for Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee for more than a decade repeatedly warned the FBI beginning in 2017 that then-Rep. Adam Schiff had approved leaking classified information to smear then-President Donald Trump over the now-debunked Russiagate scandal, according to bombshell FBI memos that Director Kash Patel has turned over to Congress.
The FBI 302 interview reports obtained by Just the News state the intelligence staffer — a Democrat by party affiliation who described himself as a friend to both Schiff, now a California senator, and former Republican House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes — considered the classified leaking to be “unethical,” “illegal,” and “treasonous,” but was told not to worry about it because Schiff believed he would be spared prosecution under the Constitution’s speech and debate clause.
No publicly-disclosed opinion from the Attorney General or the Solicitor General can be found making that determination as a matter of law.
But officials told Just the News that DOJ officials showed little interest in pursuing Schiff when the allegations were brought to them years ago, citing the very same excuse the lawmaker had offered.

We found it. We declassified it.
Now Congress can see how classified info was leaked to shape political narratives – and decide if our institutions were weaponized against the American people. pic.twitter.com/PCpLFLuPmI
