A shocking incident occurred at Melbourne’s Southern Cross Station, where two teenage thugs were recorded attacking a woman who is reported to have Down Syndrome.
The victim was waiting at the busy train station when she was suddenly set upon by the two teenagers, according to Daily Mail.
Witnesses were appalled as one of the girls delivered a savage punch to the woman’s face.
This brutal blow was just the beginning of a series of attacks that unfolded in quick succession.
Another teenager joined the assault, rushing up to the woman and punching her from behind with such force that she was knocked to the ground. As the woman lay defenseless, one of the attackers showed no mercy, delivering a brutal kick to her head.
The brutality of the attack was further underscored by the words of one of the assailants, who was heard saying, “That was the aim, you got what you deserve b****.”
The brutal assault came to an end when an elderly man bravely stepped in.
The disturbing incident was captured on video and was proudly posted on social media.
The distressing video has since gone viral on social media platforms.

The White House announced Sunday that three U.S. servicemembers were killed and “many wounded” in a drone attack at Tower 22 in Jordan near the border with Syria. The attack is the first one to kill U.S. troops out of over one hundred-fifty attacks on U.S. bases and ships in the Middle East since the October 7 jihad massacre attack on Israel by Hamas. Several Americans were killed in the October 7 attack, several more were taken hostage by Hamas and are still being held in captivity. Earlier this month two Navy SEALs drowned while boarding a ship off the coast of Somalia to intercept Iranian weapons bound for Houthi terrorists in Yemen.
U.S. Central Command released a statement that twenty-five troops were also wounded in the attack.
Joe Biden vowed, “We will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner our choosing.”
Before Sunday’s attack, the Biden administration has responded with pinprick attacks that have mainly targeted infrastructure and not (with rare exception) leaders of the Iran-backed groups behind the attacks.
Excerpt from CNN report:
Three US Army soldiers were killed and at least two dozen service members were injured in a drone attack overnight on a small US outpost in Jordan, US officials told CNN, marking the first time US troops have been killed by enemy fire in the Middle East since the beginning of the Gaza war.
The killing of three Americans at Tower 22 in Jordan near the border with Syria is a significant escalation of an already-precarious situation in the Middle East. Officials said the drone was fired by Iran-backed militants and appeared to come from Syria.
…As of Friday, there had been more than 158 attacks on US and coalition forces in Iraq and Syria, though officials have described the constant volley of drones, rockets, and missiles as unsuccessful as they have frequently not caused serious injury or damage to infrastructure.
It’s unclear why air defenses failed to intercept the drone, which appears to be the first known attack on Tower 22 since attacks on US and coalition forces began on October 17. US forces at the outpost are there as part of an advise-and-assist mission with Jordan.
Statement by Joe Biden released by the White House:
Statement from President Joe Biden on Attack on U.S. Service Members in Northeastern Jordan Near the Syria Border
Today, America’s heart is heavy. Last night, three U.S. service members were killed—and many wounded—during an unmanned aerial drone attack on our forces stationed in northeast Jordan near the Syria border. While we are still gathering the facts of this attack, we know it was carried out by radical Iran-backed militant groups operating in Syria and Iraq.
Jill and I join the families and friends of our fallen—and Americans across the country—in grieving the loss of these warriors in this despicable and wholly unjust attack. These service members embodied the very best of our nation: Unwavering in their bravery. Unflinching in their duty. Unbending in their commitment to our country— risking their own safety for the safety of their fellow Americans, and our allies and partners with whom we stand in the fight against terrorism. It is a fight we will not cease.
The three American service members we lost were patriots in the highest sense. And their ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten by our nation. Together, we will keep the sacred obligation we bear to their families. We will strive to be worthy of their honor and valor. We will carry on their commitment to fight terrorism. And have no doubt — we will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner our choosing.

An Australian man has been arrested after robbing a Queensland convenience store at gunpoint while wearing a clown mask.
The armed robber was caught on surveillance video.
Fox News reports:
The CCTV footage showed the suspect running through the parking lot into the store in Holland Park with the white mask with orange hair and a red nose around 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 29.
The video shows the man, otherwise dressed in black, race into the store with his gun pointed. He then goes to the counter, demands money from the clerk, and reaches across the counter to grab the till after the clerk complies.
He runs out of the store with the entire till, through the parking lot and hops a barrier back the way he came.
Nobody was injured during the robbery, according to the report.
The Queensland Police Service released the surveillance footage of the robbery on January 18.

The Transgender American Veterans Association filed a federal lawsuit this week demanding that the Department of Veterans Affairs foot the bill for their sex-change surgeries.
The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, follows a letter sent out by the TAVA on last November’s ‘Transgender Day of Remembrance’ demanding that the VA start paying for the surgeries or face legal action.
“Three years ago today, President Biden repealed the military’s ban on transgender service members. Yet, when we return from service, we do not receive the same level of healthcare from the VA that other veterans do,” said Rebekka Eshler, TAVA president, in a media release.
“The natural step toward transgender people’s true inclusion in the military is for the VA to remedy this gap. Transgender veterans have waited far too long for the VA to provide the gender-affirming surgery so many of us need to survive.”
Also quoted in the release was Natalie Kastner, a TAVA member who claims to be at greater risk without access to surgery than when active in the military.
“VA’s failure to provide gender-confirmation surgery has been more dangerous for me than my time in the service,” Kastner explained.
“Without VA coverage for this surgery, I was financially out of options. I tried to perform my own gender-affirming surgery at home, without any medical training,” Kastner said.
“Were it not for the emergency room care, I would have lost my life. I was told that the VA would take care of me because I was willing to risk my life for this country. Instead, I was safer in the service than I am now.”
The VA currently provides coverage for almost all transition-related treatments for veterans apart from surgical procedures, including hormones, fertility treatments and hair removal.
Those seeking such treatments must either rely on private health insurance or bear the cost themselves. However, surgical procedures are covered for active duty service members.
The legal action argues that the VA’s nearly eight-year delay in responding to their petition, which was first filed back in 2016, constitutes a violation of the Administrative Procedure Act requiring agencies to make timely decisions on matters brought before them.
Secretary of Veteran’s Affairs, Denis McDonough, has previously pledged to offer such surgery to any of the 163,000 transgender veterans who want it.
“We are taking the first necessary steps to expand VA’s care to include gender confirmation surgery — thereby allowing transgender vets to go through the full gender confirmation process with VA at their side,” McDonough said in 2021, according to CNN.
“It’s the President’s decision, and we’ve just announced today that we’re executing that decision. That decision will carry out now over many, many months, but at the end of the day this is in the President’s authority to do,” he continued.
“He’s made clear it’s time to do it and that’s precisely what we’ll do.”

Joe Biden called Donald Trump the “sitting President” during his latest speech in South Carolina.
While giving an economic speech to voters in South Carolina, Biden stated, “Did you see what he recently said about…he wants to see the economy crash this year? A Sitting President.”

Per The Daily Mail:
Bumbling Joe Biden said Donald Trump is the ‘sitting President’ as the confused 81-year-old stumbled through an economic speech in South Carolina over the weekend.
The President tried to shore up support for another term as he tore into the former president during a dinner on Saturday that celebrated the state and its large base of black voters.
Along with bashing Trump about his view on the US economy, Biden also said his Republican rival failed to support the rights of black citizens was a threat to democracy.
‘The American consumers are facing real confidence in the economy we’re building. Let me tell you who else is noticing that- Donald Trump,’ Biden said in his speech.
Biden’s latest blunder comes shortly after he called Trump a “professor” instead of a “predecessor” during a speech at a Wisconsin brewery.
