Witches Plan to Cast Mass Spell Against Donald Trump

Donald Trump’s presidency has cast a pall over the nation, so now witches are casting a spell against him. A document making its rounds among the witch community is asking people who practice the craft to perform a monthly binding ritual until the president is removed from office.

In order to work, the mass spell must be performed at midnight EST on every waning crescent moon. The first one happened on Friday and will be followed by similar spell cast events on March 26, April 24 and May 23 and beyond. Unless, of course, Trump is cast out of office before then.

Michael M Hughes, who writes about the paranormal, posted the spell at ExtraNewsFeed last week. He stressed that a binding spell is different than a curse or hex. “It’s a restraint, not harm,” he said. “I see it as self-defense.”

Hughes said he heard that two separate witch groups were planning the spells and asked if he could take it to a wider audience. The spell instructions have gone viral, and there is a group on Facebook dedicated to answering all the questions people may have.

Practitioners are supposed to prepare for by writing “Donald J Trump” on the orange candle stub with a pin or nail. They then arrange the other items in a circle and lean the Tower card against something so that it’s standing up. Hughes suggests reading the 23rd Psalm aloud before beginning the spell by lighting a white candle.

122-year-old home moved 7/10th of mile

The city of St louis, Mo, moved a 122-year-old house about seven-tenths of a mile to make room for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency’s new campus. The home of Charlesetta Taylor, 81, was loaded onto a truck last Sunday and slowly driven through the city’s streets to its new location.

Taylor had been a vocal opponent of the St louis Development Corp’s plan to give the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency a 96-acre site for its new $1.75 billion campus, leading officials to promise Taylor they would move her home to a new location of her choosing outside the area of the eminent domain project. “This is making good on a promise that we made,” Mayor Francis Slay said in a statement provided to the St louis Post-Dispatch.

The process of moving the home, which was built in 1895 and purchased by Taylor’s family in 1945, began at 7 am Sunday and the house arrived at its destination at 1.30 pm. John Matyiko, owner of Expert House Movers, which was contracted for the move, said the house weighs nearly 370 tonnes.

“To put it in proportion, we moved the original airport terminal in Newark, New Jersey, and that was 7,000 tonnes,” he told St louis Public Radio.

Young dolphin makes rare visit to Thames

Visitors to the River Thames were treated to a rare sight last Sunday — a young dolphin swimming through london. Staff at the Thames Rib Experience, which offers speed boat rides from Embankment Pier, said the dolphin was first spotted around midday.

“The staff were at Embankment Pier and then one of the ladies, lottie, spotted the Dolphin and then every time as it went a bit quiet, when there weren’t a lot of boats around, then the dolphin would pop out of the water,” Charlotte McGlinchey, said a director at the company. lottie first spotted the dolphin, said it hung around the pier area for some time. “It was swimming around for a couple of hours. It disappeared underwater when the boats passed, and only appeared when the water was quiet,” she said.

Hairdryers used to deter speeding drivers in scotland

Residents of a neighbourhood in Scotland have armed themselves with hairdryers and reflective vests to combat speeding drivers. People in the village of Hopeman posed as police officers using speed guns to prevent speedy drivers, who have placed residents in danger by exceeding speeds of 60 miles per hour along a stretch of road leading out of the area.

“It’s very dangerous, the speed that the traffic is doing through Hopeman is quite serious, especially when the kids are going to school in the morning — it’s quite alarming,” Moray councilor Dennis Slater told the BBC. “This is why some of the residents have resorted to taking out hairdryers and putting on hi-vis vests to try to slow the traffic down.”

Members of the neighborhood have also taken other strange measures, such as propping ladders against walls to allow children to pass between back gardens rather than cross the dangerous straightaway.

Cop answers girl’s request for math homework help

The mother of a 10-year-old Ohio girl who messaged police on Facebook for help with math homework says the responding officer’s engaging approach is what counts, though his math was a little off. Molly Draper’s daughter, lena, recently messaged Marion police about equations involving addition of numbers in parenthesis as well as multiplication.

lt BJ Gruber replied. He walked the fifth-grader through correctly solving one problem but slipped up on another, suggesting addition and multiplication steps in the wrong order.

Even so, his effort drew wide praise when Draper shared the exchange on Facebook. She tells WCMH-TV it demonstrates her daughter’s trust in police officers and good community relationship-building on their part. Gruber took the math misstep in stride, joking that he should’ve mentioned his favourite subject was history.
