Thai Woman Arrested for Having Sex With Monks and Blackmailing Them, in Scandal Rocking Buddhist Clergy
July 17, 2025
Wilawan Emsawat seduced the Buddhist monks and blackmailed them for large sums.
Thailand’s society and its Buddhist clergy are reeling from a sex scandal in which a woman seduced monks and proceeded to extract money from them via blackmail.
“At least nine abbots and senior monks have been disrobed and cast out of the monkhood, the Royal Thai Police Central Investigation Bureau said.
Wilawan Emsawat, in her mid-30s, is accused of enticing senior monks into having sex with her and then pressuring them into making large payments to cover it up.”
Thai monks from the Theravada sect are celibate and can’t even touch a woman.
“Several monks transferred large amounts of money after Wilawan initiated romantic relationships with them, police said -her bank accounts received around 385 million baht (£8.8m) in the past three years, with most of that spent on gambling websites.”
Wilawan was arrested on charges of extortion, money laundering and receiving stolen goods.

Upon searching the woman’s phone, Thai police found tens of thousands of photos and videos of sexual activity.
Numerous chat logs also showed her intimate interactions with several monks.
“An investigation was launched last month after an abbot of a famous temple in Bangkok abruptly left the monkhood. He had allegedly been blackmailed by Wilawan over their romantic relationship, investigators found.
She told the monk she was pregnant and asked him to pay her 7.2 million baht (£165,000), Jaroonkiat Pankaew, a Central Investigation Bureau deputy commissioner, said at a news conference in Bangkok on Tuesday.”
Algerian Journalist Living In Sweden Calls On Algerian Youth To “Colonize France”

According to Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch, Algerian journalist Yahya Abu Zakariya called on Algerian youth to “colonize France one day if they have the opportunity.”
Zakariya also said they should remain there for 132 years, like the French did in Algeria. This concept is known as Hiyrah in Arabic which literally means migration but refers to the Islamic takeover of Western Countries through immigration.
In this radical interview, Abu Zakariyah also proclaimed, “Algerians did not allow any foreigners to remain on their soil, and that they slaughtered the French through Jihad and resistance.”
Among these “Swede” claims are that “Americans and French called Algerians ‘Barbarians’because they would devour anyone who came near the land.”
He went on to make a brutal claim that illustrates the dangers of Muslim migration. He claims Algerians would devour “invaders” with “their teeth and fingernails.”
If this isn’t barbaric, what is?
In this wide ranging interview, Zakariyah also shows his Jew hatred. He says in regard to The Holocaust, “Where did the figure of six million come from? The Jews were undoubtedly preparing for a big lie, with which to extort the West. The West is still paying reparations to the Hebrew entity, and this includes Germany, believe it or not. Germany has a powerful economy, and it is one of the biggest supporters [of Israel], providing it with weapons and money, only to atone for a crime that Hitler did not commit.”
As if the barbaric killing of Westerners and Holocaust denial weren’t evil enough, this Muslim immigrant goes on to emphasize his jihad.
Zakariyah proclaims that foreigners were slaughtered by Algerians (in case we didn’t yet get the message). He finishes his rant by saying, “So any foreigner who so much as contemplates harming Algeria – I will gauge his eyes out, making him blind. I swear by Allah.”
Despite evidence like this, when President Trump declared a total and complete shutdown of Muslim immigration, he was met with hysteria.
After seeing what’s taking place in Europe and the radicalization of people like Zakariyah, who would think this a bad idea?
It’s a time for choosing, as President Reagan once proclaimed.
Will America make the right choice before its too late?
Maurene Comey Lashes Out at Trump in Message to DOJ Colleagues After Firing
July 17, 2025
Maurene Comey lashed out at Trump in a message to colleagues after she was fired.
Maurene Comey, daughter of James Comey, was fired as a federal prosecutor in the Manhattan US Attorney’s office on Wednesday.
“There was no specific reason given for her firing from the U.S. attorney’s office in the Southern District of New York, according to one of the people who spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity to discuss personnel matters,” the AP reported.
Maurene Comey didn’t call out Trump by name, but she attacked the president and his administration in a message after being fired.
“Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought,” Maurene Comey wrote in a message to colleagues.
One day after being fired by the Justice Department, Maurene Comey told her former colleagues that “fear is the tool of a tyrant,” appearing to take aim at the upper ranks of DOJ and perhaps the president, according to a copy of a message she sent to the Manhattan U.S. attorney’s office that was shared with POLITICO.
Referring to the office’s longstanding motto of operating “without fear or favor,” Comey, who is the daughter of former FBI Director James Comey and who prosecuted both Jeffrey Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, told her former colleagues in a note Thursday that “[w]e have entered a new phase where ‘without fear’ may be the challenge.”
“If a career prosecutor can be fired without reason, fear may seep into the decisions of those who remain. Do not let that happen,” she wrote. “Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought. Instead of fear, let this moment fuel the fire that already burns at the heart of this place. A fire of righteous indignation at abuses of power. Of commitment to seek justice for victims. Of dedication to truth above all else.”
Recall that Maurene Comey filed the key court declarations to keep the Epstein files from being released under FOIA.
Maurene Comey was the prosecutor in the 2019 Epstein case, the Ghislaine Maxwell case and the Diddy case.
According to previous reporting by the Washington Post, Maurene Comey was listed as one of the prosecutors who was involved in the ‘deleted’ Epstein prison footage.
Prosecutors in the SDNY rallied around Maurene Comey and escorted her out of the office on Wednesday evening.
On Wednesday evening, prosecutors in the office, still shaken by the Eric Adams debacle, rallied around Comey, with dozens of them banding together to escort her out of the office for the last time: https://t.co/S8aQlYqjza
John L. Kachelman, Jr. on the Evil Elitist

Guest post by John L. Kachelman, Jr.
Consider a dominant, invisible philosophy of civilization. It is a malignancy that corrupts society and destroys individualism. It is masterfully cloaked so its evil penetrates to the deepest governing levels. It is almost impossible to eradicate. Removal of top layers is difficult but possible. However, when the exposure becomes too threatening, a vicious life and death war emerges to guard the deepest penetration.
I designate this pernicious evil as the Elitest. More commonly termed “Deep State.” It is sadly devoted to corrupting the governing administration. It is a sad trait common in civilization. It does not restrict itself to one nation, geographical border, religious system, or even political party.
A modern example is Sudan’s political history. Those of us involved in Darfur remember it well. The National Islamic Front took power through a military coup d’état. This coup established the regime of Omar al-Bashir who was heralded as the “Salvation Regime.” This regime lasted nearly three decades. State violence viciously attacked non-Arab communities. The most publicized started in 2003, the Darfur Region. The government unleashed the Janjaweed militias. That resulted in the burning of thousands of villages, displacement of millions, and the killing of hundreds of thousands. But all was justified by the ruling Elites!
Do not limit your list of Elitest corruption to Africa. Every continent has evidence of this evil, even our beloved USA.
While much more could be written about this toxic evil, consider this summary carefully thinking how current situations expose this manipulative evil within our beloved nation.
Elitism (Deep Statism) is the belief that a society should be directed by a select group who are the most capable or intelligent. Members of this evil group will state. “The government knows better how to spend your money; how to raise your children; how to decide who is fit to be born; etc.”
They see themselves as “above” the population. Elitists successfully cloak their deluded superiority by pressing that decision-making should be left to those who are most competent and knowledgeable. And of course, only they can decide this! The focus is wholly upon the State and individualism is suppressed or erased.
Adherents believe the advancement of civilization depends upon the succession of the Elites. This a minority is committed to keeping the population under “control.” Their methods are contradictory and inconsistent because they are keen on keeping control not upon pursuing truth.
To safeguard their entrenched positions Elites, criticize opponents as naïve, unrealistic, inconsistent, lying to supporters, garbage, deplorable, or unburdened. They ignore reality. The opposition supporters are framed as emotionally driven and ignorant of the true characters of those opposing the Elite.
A previous article identified this governing as “The Iron Law of Oligarchy.” The Elite inevitably take any form of governing, any political party, any religious group and become oligarchic! And thoughtless people instantly follow the Law. They are conditioned and deceived that is it “for their best.” Groupthink replaces individual responsibility!
Here is a partial listing of traits of those controlled by the Elite’s philosophy:
Seductively promises but never provides!
Deviously manipulates so the poor become poorer, and the Elite becomes richer!
Visibly believes the codified Law is for “Thee and not for ME”!
Loudly proclaims freedom but forcing further servile submission!
Smugly posing as the “deliverer” when they are the “devourer”!
Proudly wear the badge of “social justice warrior” when they are marching goosestep to the Elite’s orders!
Adroitly cherry-picking opponents’ words to fabricate their evil opposition points—it is all lies!
Here is one of the most significant factors of the Elite—They are woven into the intricate network of the organization’s administration. They occupy “deep” positions and operate in the dark. Their devious deviltry is unrestrained. And, tragically, they are never removed and continue their evil philosophy even with Administration changes. Such Elitest are currently identified as “Deep State.” They are “layers” deep, and their evil is protected by the abominable Ruler of Darkness. Their intent is to rule or ruin! Or in today’s vernacular, “Burn it down to build it up!”
It was opposition to this Elitest philosophy that birthed our great nation. The heroes and heroines of Our nation’s independence decided that enough elitism was enough! The Founding Fathers wisely formatted our governing structure NOT as an Elitest monarchy or a frenzied democracy or a theocratic governing BUT as a Representative Republic!
As a Representative Republic, our nation’s founders formatted a governing that excluded the Elitest philosophy.
Historical emphasis is found in the Constitutional Convention (September 17, 1787). The day began with 81-year-old Benjamin Franklin painfully afflicted with gout and kidney stone, unable to read a speech and delegated that task to James Wilson (PA). Finally, the names were affixed to the Constitution. As the last names were being signed, Franklin looked at the chair in which George Washington had been sitting in presiding over the Convention. The chair had an emblem of half of a sun. Franklin noted that artists often have a hard time distinguishing between a rising and a setting sun in their artwork. “I have often in the course of the session, and the vicissitudes of my hopes and fears as to its issue, looked at that behind the President, without being able to tell whether it was rising or setting: but now at length, I have the happiness to know, that it is a rising and not a setting sun.”
The next day, following the signing of the Constitution, there is a journal entry from James McHenry, a Maryland delegate to the Constitutional Convention. McHenry records the events of the last day of the convention, September 18, 1787, and wrote: “A lady asked Dr. Franklin, ‘Well Doctor what have we got a republic or a monarchy.’ ‘A republic replied the Doctor if you can keep it.’”
Today we must realize the dangers of the Elitest hijacking our Republic. Remember Franklin’s reply, “A republic, if you can keep it.” The stress today is as strong now as then, “IF YOU CAN KEEP IT.”
Looking even further back into history we read of a nation corrupted by the evil Elitest. Justice was denied. Punishment was biased. The governing sought to oppress and control the governed. The elite had erased the Almighty from their decisions—if any devotion was displayed it was a façade masking their devilish devotions.
God’s statement to the Elite then and echoing still today to the Deep State, “Woe to those who enact unjust statutes and to those who constantly record harmful decisions, depriving the needy of justice and robbing the poor of their rights…Now what will you do in the day of punishment, and the devastation which will come…To whom will you flee for help? And where will you leave your wealth?” (The Bible, Isaiah 10:1-3)
The Elite are deeply entrenched; woven into the critical fabric of our State. They are being exposed. Their failure is certain. But also certain is the historical fact that in their death spiral they will seek to destroy even more—especially those exposing their evil. Let us not lose focus of our mission. Let us not be distracted. Let us look and realize the efforts of misdirection that viscerally manipulates and controls us. Understand that the Elite will utilize the most sensitive and repugnant inhumanities to manipulate the population, so they remain secure.
Do not allow emotions to misdirect your patriotism. We have “a republic, if you can keep it.”
That was the message of the leftist protesters who swarmed the streets nationwide on June 14 in opposition to President Donald Trump and his agenda.
“Trump must go now!” they chanted, waving signs that likened the president to a dictator and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to his Gestapo.
Their complaint was alleged despotism. But if Democrats really opposed authoritarianism, they wouldn’t be celebrating its emergence in the courts.
When U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani brazenly overstepped her authority on July 7 to block Congress from stripping Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid funding through the budget reconciliation bill – a clear usurpation of the legislative branch’s power of the purse – the response from the Left wasn’t outrage but praise.
“Good,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) wrote on X. “Democrats will never stop fighting this backdoor abortion ban from the Republicans.”
Schumer’s apparent admission that Medicaid funds abortions aside, his comments also belie his party’s disingenuous indignation over supposed federal overreach.
That selective outrage was on full display in April amid the arrest of a Wisconsin judge for allegedly escorting Eduardo Flores-Ruiz – an illegal immigrant who had previously been deported – out the back jury door of her courtroom to help him evade federal immigration authorities.
The ICE agents in question had a valid administrative warrant for Flores-Ruiz’s arrest, yet leftists railed against efforts to hold Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan to account for her alleged obstruction.
“By arresting a sitting judge over routine courthouse management, the Trump regime has signaled its eagerness to weaponize federal power against members of the judiciary who do not align with its political agenda,” writer Mitchell Sobieski fumed in a Milwaukee Independent op-ed.
If impeding federal law enforcement now qualifies as “routine courthouse management,” that’s a big problem.
Meanwhile, Milwaukee’s Democratic Mayor Cavalier Johnson’s complaint was that the Trump administration was “scaring people” by enforcing federal immigration law.
“They’re scaring people in this community; they’re scaring people in immigrant communities all across the United States,” Johnson told the press.
Never mind the law-abiding U.S. citizens who remain scared that their daughters, sisters, or mothers could be the next Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungaray, or Rachel Morin – all victims of murderers in the country illegally.
Apparently their fears are irrelevant.
As for Dugan, her claim that “judicial immunity” precludes her from prosecution for alleged obstruction of justice is as authoritarian as it gets.
Judges are but one facet of the American justice system, and as Democrats once loved reminding us all: “No one is above the law.”
Of course, the left’s disinterest in reining in the judiciary is nothing new. After all, the Democratic Party has long relied on activist judges to impose its will on the American public.
With Roe v. Wade in 1973, leftists leveraged a sympathetic U.S. Supreme Court to force nearly a half-century of unregulated abortion onto a country that was – and still is – deeply divided on the procedure.
In 2015, leftists used the same playbook to mandate same-sex marriage nationwide via Obergefell v. Hodges.
In the age of Trump, however, judicial activism has become an even more flagrant problem.
Last year, then-candidate Trump was frequently forced to split his time between the campaign trail and the courtroom as he fended off contrived criminal indictments and lawsuits, nearly all of which were conveniently presided over by liberal judges.
At the same time, radical judges in Colorado and Illinois – and Maine’s Democratic secretary of state – attempted to strip voters of their right to decide the presidential election by removing Trump’s name from the ballot.
Fortunately, the U.S. Supreme Court stepped in to quash that authoritarian plot. Unfortunately for the justices, it’s a move they’ve had to repeat several times since the president’s inauguration in January.
In a litany of cases challenging Trump’s various policy changes, rogue district court judges have issued sweeping injunctions blocking him from implementing his agenda nationwide in cases without a class certification – a practice that the U.S. Supreme Court has now admonished as “likely” judicial overreach.
Still, lower court judges are finding other ways to overstep their authority.
U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy, for example, appears to have decided that his court, not the nation’s high court, reigns supreme in the land.
Even after the U.S. Supreme Court lifted his nationwide block on third-country deportations in June, Murphy continued to insist that the Trump administration give six defendant illegal immigrants an opportunity to challenge their removal before deporting them to a third-party country.
That move even rankled liberal Justice Elena Kagan, who had initially sided with Murphy.
“I do not see how a district court can compel compliance with an order that this Court has stayed,” Kagan wrote, concurring with the majority that the deportations could proceed.
Yet not even the top court is immune to political activism, it seems.
In her dissent from the court’s ruling against blanket injunctions, liberal Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson described the majority’s decision as “profoundly dangerous.” In her view, containing temporary judicial relief to those requesting it somehow grants the president “unchecked, arbitrary power” and “undermines our constitutional system.”
Jackson’s words were acrimonious enough that Justice Amy Coney Barrett included a stinging rebuke in the court’s ruling.
“We will not dwell on Justice Jackson’s argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries’ worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself,” Barrett wrote. “We observe only this: Justice Jackson decries an imperial executive while embracing an imperial judiciary.”
An imperial judiciary, indeed.
No, there are no kings in the United States – just a bunch of black-robed activists who seem to have forgotten the difference between “Your Honor” and “Your Majesty.”
