Conservative mom reveals alleged vile texts from school official: ‘She can’t die soon enough’

Danielle Bellomo, a mother-of-three and New Jersey conservative school-board member, remembers the moment she first saw the text message that would change her life: “She can’t die soon enough.”

“When I read those words, ‘She can’t die soon enough,’ it stopped me in my tracks,” Bellomo told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview. “I always knew there was disagreement politically, but I never really wrapped my head around the fact that they actually wanted me dead.”

Bellomo, a Marlboro Township Board of Education member, mother of three and longtime community volunteer, is now at the center of a case that has shaken her suburban New Jersey district and sparked outrage across the parental-rights movement nationwide.

A Monmouth County judge this week extended a temporary protective order against Mitesh Gandhi, the husband of another school board member, after reading aloud a series of text messages allegedly written by him. The messages included a group chat titled, “This B—- Needs to Die.”

MOTHER SAYS ALLEGED STALKER WHO KILLED HER DAUGHTER SHOULD BE TRIED AS AN ADULT

In one of the text threads, Gandhi allegedly referred to Bellomo as “a lying c—” and wrote, “Mission is to just let her die by herself lol.”

Another viral message, part of what was dubbed “Nipplegate” in October, appeared to show former board candidate Scott Semaya typing during a public meeting, “Bellomo must be cold — her nips could cut glass right n” with a finger about to press the ‘o’ on his phone’s keyboard. 

Fox News Digital has reviewed screenshots of the alleged messages.

That image spread rapidly online last month, drawing condemnation from parents and even Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, who called the comments “wrong and evil.” Two candidates involved in the chat later dropped out of the school board race.

“It surprised me that it reached that level,” Bellomo said. “But it didn’t surprise me that conservatives stand behind one another. The parental-rights movement is strong.”

Bellomo has spent more than a decade volunteering in Marlboro Township schools. She says she ran for the board to support curriculum transparency and parental rights, not to become a target.

“I got involved in the school boards because I’m an active volunteer in our community. I’ve been involved with the parent organization that I account for going on 12 years,” she said. “So I saw the school board as the next step in furthering my involvement in the community and I wanted it to enhance my children’s educational experience while they were in the K-3 district. I never imagined that it would have led to this.”

The threats changed everything inside her home.

“My son is almost a teenager. He used to go places with his friends — now he asks if someone is going to come to our house,” she said. “My 8-year-old cries if she thinks I have a board meeting. My youngest keeps asking if I’m safe.”

Her oldest son saw the coverage of grown men sharing lewd messages about Bellomo’s body on social media.

“That was humiliating for him,” she said. “He’s a middle-schooler. His friends saw it. It has affected every part of our life.”

According to Bellomo, online hostility in town isn’t new, but she said she believes this has crossed into something far more serious.

“There’s always been Facebook drama, people arguing,” she said. “When I realized that there wasn’t just one, but two different communications and possibly, you know, who knows how many more where one communication is a group chat that was titled, ‘This B—- needs to die,’ and then the other is actually plans and that there’s a mission and the mission is to watch me die or to have me die alone….. It really just takes it to a whole different level. It’s like, this is not just normal disagreement.

LAWMAKER TARGETED WITH DEATH THREAT AFTER CONDEMNING RACIST SIGN AIMED AT WINSOME SEARS

The judge overseeing the protective-order hearing refused to dismiss Gandhi’s request to end the order, allowing Bellomo’s protective order to continue through January, when a full trial will be held. 

Under New Jersey law, a harassment-related protective order can be extended if a judge finds an ongoing risk to the petitioner.

But at the criminal level, Bellomo says the Marlboro Police Department referred the case to the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office, which declined charges.

“I was disheartened, but not surprised,” she said. “We have a Democrat prosecutor. The police recommended charges, but he didn’t follow through.”

Bellomo says the most painful part has been the response, or lack thereof, from her own school district. One of the text threads, she claims, was sent during an in-person board meeting while she sat just feet away.

“Our township has policies. If someone is a threat, they’re not supposed to be allowed on school property,” she said. “Our superintendent, Dr. Michael Ballone, did nothing. Our board president, Brian Cohen, did nothing. They chose not to implement the policies that are already in place.”

“The Marlboro Township Public Schools (MTPS) takes the safety and security of all board members, staff, students, and families extremely seriously,” Ballone wrote in a statement to Fox News Digital.

“Administration has responded accordingly to Mrs. Bellomo’s concerns, including her expressions of feeling unsafe by working with the Marlboro Police Department, the entity responsible for ensuring all Marlboro residents (including Board members) are protected. We also added to our internal safety protocols which cannot be disclosed publicly,” Ballone added. “MTPS believes in maintaining a secure environment for everyone.”

Two fellow board members, Annette Siewertand Valentina Mendez, were the only colleagues who stepped in, she said.

“They begged the superintendent to protect us,” Bellomo said. “They stood up publicly and asked for action. Nobody else did.”

Bellomo says she has already heard from dozens of women who say her situation has scared them away from public service.

“They say, ‘I could never go through what you’re going through,’” she said. “That’s heartbreaking. Local government should not require you to put your family at risk.”

“I used to go to every school event, every community activity,” she said. “Now I keep the kids home from things. I send my husband inside first to check if people are there who shouldn’t be. My life changed overnight.”

Bellomo said she believes the threats stem from her outspoken advocacy of curriculum and parental rights, issues that have divided school boards across the country.

“I was very transparent during my campaign,” she said. “I stand firmly for parental rights, local control and age-appropriate curriculum. And I’ve pushed back hard on some of the policies coming down from the state.” She added, “I think that made me a target.”

Despite everything, Bellomo said she has no plans to quit the board. 

“I absolutely want to continue,” she said. “This mission is too important. And I hope the district eventually implements the policies that are supposed to protect us.”

What she wants most, she says, is to remind Americans that disagreement should never turn to calling for violence.

“We should be able to debate. We should be able to disagree,” Bellomo said. “But it should never rise to the level of wanting to hurt someone. We can do better than this.”

Gandhi, Semaya, Cohen and the county prosecutor’s office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

Police chopper forced into emergency dive after UFO chase above air base: report

Newly released police logs and video footage contradict official explanations of a near-collision between a U.K. police helicopter and unidentified aerial objects over a U.S. air base last year, an encounter authorities had previously dismissed as a routine fighter jet sighting.

According to documents the Daily Mail obtained through Britain’s Freedom of Information Act, the Nov. 22, 2024, flight forced a National Police Air Service (NPAS) EC135 helicopter to take emergency evasive action after reporting that two fast-moving craft “targeted” and pursued the aircraft over RAF Lakenheath, a major U.S. military installation in Suffolk.

The pilots described a steep dive to avoid a crash as the objects matched their speed, roughly 165 knots (190 mph), for several minutes before disappearing from view.

Nick Pope, who formerly investigated UFOs for the U.K. Ministry of Defence, told Fox News Digital the episode shows how unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAP, have evolved from a fringe curiosity into a legitimate defense and aviation issue.

SOURCE OF ‘UFO’ PANIC, DRONE MYSTERY CLAIMS RESPONSIBILITY FOR FRENZY: REPORT

“This disturbing incident perfectly illustrates why the UAP issue has gone from fringe to mainstream,” Pope said. “Whatever people’s beliefs, this is a serious safety-of-flight matter that demands urgent attention and action.”

Pope stressed that simply labeling such encounters “drones” can obscure what might be much more complex.

‘Drone’ has become a convenient shorthand for anything unexplained that people see in the skies,” he said. “So, we really don’t know what we’re dealing with here.”

REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK: MILITARY WHISTLEBLOWERS TESTIFY TO CONGRESS ABOUT UNEXPLAINED UFO ENCOUNTERS

He added that the lack of data sharing between agencies and the tendency to downplay sightings could make the danger worse.

“I hope it doesn’t take a tragedy before something more is done,” Pope said. “There’s chronic underreporting of these sorts of incidents, so the true extent of the problem is likely far more serious.”

Logs cited by the Daily Mail say the NPAS crew called the encounter an “unprovoked pursuit” shortly after 10 p.m. while patrolling near the base.

“They had to perform an emergency dive and described that they were pursued in the dive by two drones who matched their speed … and then pursued them for several minutes out of the area,” one police entry states. 

Another notes the pilots “felt that drones had targeted them and chased them off at approximately 140 knots [161 mph].”

Additional police reports between Nov. 20-22 recorded roughly 20 drone sightings across RAF Lakenheath, RAF Mildenhall and RAF Feltwell. Logs described “10-15 drones … potentially into base airspace” and said aircraft were temporarily grounded after crossing flight paths.

A witness using night-vision goggles reported “five to six drones” near the A1065 highway, while another described “large stationary things — tic-tacs — they are not birds.”

A U.K. military source who viewed the helicopter’s full 30-minute infrared video told the Daily Mail the footage shows “drones mirroring the helicopter’s movements” and performing a “corkscrew” maneuver impossible for an F-15.

“In the 30-minute video with pilot audio, nobody mentions F-15s,” the source said. “They only talk about the drones … basically forcing them out of the area.”

NATO COUNTRY REPORTS DRONES OVER LARGEST MILITARY BASE AFTER AIRPORT ATTACK, MULLS RESPONSE

Despite the multiple sightings, Britain’s Airprox Board, which investigates near misses, concluded in its final report that the crew had mistaken the lights of a U.S. Air Force F-15 operating nearby. Radar data showed the helicopter and jet came within 1,700 feet, and the board reported no other returns.

Retired senior police Det. Mike Morgan told the Daily Mail he was frustrated by official silence. 

“There is a whole series of question marks about what went on in November 2024,” he said. “I have run into repeated efforts by the authorities to avoid answering even the most basic questions. … What is so secret about this investigation?”

Defense sector meteorologist Stuart Onyeche said he believes both the F-15 and the police helicopter were reacting to unmanned systems in the area. 

“I’m inclined to trust the initial detail and assessment of the experienced helicopter pilots,” Onyeche told the Daily Mail. “It’s unarguable that an F-15 was also in the vicinity … but the unanswered question is what that fighter was being tasked to do or look for.”

The Daily Mail notes the Lakenheath case unfolded amid weeks of similar reports of drone incursions near U.S. military bases in New Jersey, the wider Northeast and overseas.

The outlet also cites a joint FBI/DOD/NASA report warning that detection and jamming systems have “failed” to stop advanced drones, including a major swarm over Langley Air Force Base in Virginia in December 2023 that was kept quiet until revealed by The War Zone in March 2024.

Pope said recurring incidents like the Lakenheath encounter, combined with limited transparency from officials, point to a growing gap in how governments handle unidentified aerial activity and that without better reporting and coordination, the risk to air safety will only continue to increase.

49ers star’s $24.9M guarantee axed after he ‘failed to attend meetings’ in stunning move

It appears the San Francisco 49ers and Brandon Aiyuk are headed for a messy ending despite the veteran wide receiver signing a long-term deal with the franchise just last season.

Aiyuk, who has been out all season with a knee injury he sustained during the 2024 campaign, was expected to return at some point in 2025. 

But the situation has become so strained The Athletic reports San Francisco has voided the guaranteed money in his contract for 2026, a $24.935 million option bonus.

Because of this reported void, there is now belief that Aiyuk’s time in the Bay Area could soon be coming to an end.

The outlet reports that Aiyuk “failed to attend meetings and declined to participate in other team activities in recent months,” which led to frustration within the organization.

“The 49ers, sources say, responded by voiding the guaranteed money in Aiyuk’s contract for 2026, asserting that the absences amounted to a failure to fulfill his contractual obligations,” The Athletic reports. 

“Aiyuk, according to multiple league sources, told NFL Players Association representatives that he did not want to fight the move via an official grievance. That would clear the way for his expected release at season’s end.”

Aiyuk signed a four-year, $120 million extension with the organization in August 2024 after a roller-coaster period of contract disputes.

However, Aiyuk tore the ACL and MCL in his right knee in October of that year, ending his season and keeping him sidelined for most of the 2025 campaign.

Given the size of the extension, it would be a surprise if Aiyuk becomes a free agent in 2026. He was the team’s first-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft and had a breakout season in 2022, totaling 78 receptions for 1,015 yards and eight touchdowns.

Then, in 2023, Aiyuk cemented himself as the 49ers’ top pass catcher with 1,342 yards on 75 catches and seven touchdowns. That success led the Arizona State product to seek a new contract before the 2024 season despite having one year remaining on his rookie deal after the 49ers picked up his fifth-year option.

Now, it’s unclear whether Aiyuk will play again for San Francisco, which is making a playoff push with a 7-4 record heading into Week 12. The 49ers are still among the teams yet to have their bye week, which will come in Week 14.

‘I feel so cheated’: JFK’s granddaughter faces rare terminal cancer at 35

Former President John F. Kennedy’s granddaughter, Tatiana Schlossberg, announced Saturday — exactly 62 years after JFK was assassinated — that she has terminal cancer.

The 35-year-old said she was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, with a rare mutation called Inversion 3, soon after the birth of her daughter in May 2024, and doctors recently told her she probably has about a year to live.

“My first thought was that my kids, whose faces live permanently on the inside of my eyelids, wouldn’t remember me,” she wrote in an essay for The New Yorker. “My son might have a few memories, but he’ll probably start confusing them with pictures he sees or stories he hears.”

She said she “didn’t ever really get to take care of my daughter — I couldn’t change her diaper or give her a bath or feed her, all because of the risk of infection after my transplants. I was gone for almost half of her first year of life. I don’t know who, really, she thinks I am, and whether she will feel or remember, when I am gone, that I am her mother.”

She said the diagnosis was shocking because she felt perfectly healthy.

“I did not — could not — believe that they were talking about me,” she wrote of the first talk of leukemia. “I had swum a mile in the pool the day before, nine months pregnant. I wasn’t sick. I didn’t feel sick. I was actually one of the healthiest people I knew.”

She said the cancer is mostly seen in older patients, and doctors frequently asked her if she had spent much time at Ground Zero in New York City. She had not.

Schlossberg, the daughter of Caroline Kennedy, JFK’s oldest surviving daughter, described in heartbreaking detail her months on end of different treatments to beat the cancer.

She went through a round of chemotherapy to “reduce the number of blast cells in my bone marrow,” then received a bone marrow transplant with the help of her sister.

She said after she went into remission and went home, she had no immune system and had to get all of her childhood vaccines again.

JOAN KENNEDY, WIFE OF SEN. TED KENNEDY FOR 22 YEARS, DEAD AT 89

Then she relapsed, her doctor telling her that leukemia with her mutation “liked to come back.”

At the beginning of the year, she joined a clinical trial of CAR-T-cell therapy, “a type of immunotherapy that has proved effective against certain blood cancers.”

That was followed by another round of chemotherapy and a second blood transfusion from an unrelated donor.

“During the latest clinical trial, my doctor told me that he could keep me alive for a year, maybe,” she wrote.

She also wrote of her concerns after her cousin, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whom she called an “embarrassment,” was nominated as secretary of Health and Human Services.

“Suddenly, the health-care system on which I relied felt strained, shaky,” she wrote. “Doctors and scientists at Columbia [Presbyterian hospital], including [her husband] George, didn’t know if they would be able to continue their research, or even have jobs.”

She praised the rest of her family, whom she said sat at her bedside while she endured treatments and took care of her children.

Of her husband, urologist George Moran, she wrote, “He is perfect, and I feel so cheated and so sad that I don’t get to keep living the wonderful life I had with this kind, funny, handsome genius I managed to find.”

Her brother Jack Schlossberg, who is running for congress in New York, wrote on his Instagram on Saturday, “Life is short, let it rip.”

Her mother’s cousin, Maria Shriver, shared the essay on Instagram, writing, “If you can only read one thing today, please make take the time for this extraordinary piece of writing by my cousin Caroline’s extraordinary daughter Tatiana. Tatiana is a beautiful writer, journalist, wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend.”

Tatiana added in her essay, “For my whole life, I have tried to be good, to be a good student and a good sister and a good daughter, and to protect my mother and never make her upset or angry. Now I have added a new tragedy to her life, to our family’s life, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it.”

Robert F. Kennedy Sr., her mother Caroline Kennedy’s uncle, was assassinated five years after JFK, and along with having two siblings who died in infancy, Caroline’s only surviving brother, JFK Jr., died in a plane crash in 1999.

Schlossberg’s grandmother, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, also died of cancer in 1994 of non-Hodgkin lymphoma when she was 64.

She finished her essay by saying she lives to be with her children now.

“But being in the present is harder than it sounds, so I let the memories come and go,” she admitted. “So many of them are from my childhood that I feel as if I’m watching myself and my kids grow up at the same time.

“Sometimes I trick myself into thinking I’ll remember this forever, I’ll remember this when I’m dead. Obviously, I won’t. But since I don’t know what death is like and there’s no one to tell me what comes after it, I’ll keep pretending. I will keep trying to remember.”

Teachers fended off a grizzly bear that attacked a school group walking along a trail in British Columbia, Canada, on Thursday, officials said.

“The group had stopped along a trail near the community when a grizzly bear emerged from the forest and attacked,” Insp. Kevin Van Damme of British Columbia’s Conservation Officer Service, said in an update on social media. “Teachers successfully repelled the bear using pepper spray and a bear banger.”

Eleven people were injured in the attack, including students in the fourth and fifth grade, according to CBC News.

Two were in critical condition, two in serious condition and the other seven were treated at the scene, the British Columbia Health Services said.

Research has found that one specific spice may have profound effects on metabolic health.

Black cumin, known as Nigella sativa or black seed, is used in many Middle Eastern and Indian dishes like curries and naan. It’s also found in some baked goods and spice blends.

High-antioxidant black seed oil is also sold as a dietary supplement, often used to support immunity, reduce inflammation and improve digestive health.

EATING ONE TYPE OF NUT DAILY COULD LOWER ‘BAD’ CHOLESTEROL, IMPROVE HEART HEALTH, STUDY FINDS

A recent study published in the journal Food Science & Nutrition examined black cumin’s effect on cholesterol levels.

Researchers in Osaka, Japan, conducted laboratory cell tests and a randomized human trial in which participants consumed 5 grams of black cumin seed powder per day for eight weeks.

Participants’ cholesterol levels and appetite levels were measured before and after they took the supplement.

The human trial revealed a decrease in triglycerides, LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and total cholesterol, as well as an increase in HDL (“good”) cholesterol.

The findings also revealed a “significant improvement” in hunger levels, indicating black cumin’s possible benefits for appetite control.

The researchers concluded that both in-vitro (lab) and human trials demonstrated black cumin’s “anti-adipogenic and lipid-lowering effects.”

“The study highlights the potential of [black cumin seed extract] in improving lipid metabolism,” the authors wrote. “These results suggest that black cumin seed may serve as a promising natural agent in obesity-related conditions, although further investigation involving comprehensive metabolic parameters is warranted.”

Theresa Link, registered dietitian at Virta Health in Nebraska, reacted to these findings in an interview with Fox News Digital.

Cholesterol is “just one piece” of the cardiovascular health “puzzle,” the expert noted, which means these findings should be considered more broadly for metabolic health.

Link also referred to a 2021 study that found black seed oil led to greater weight loss in female participants who took it daily. The participants also reported feeling fuller, which “likely contributed to their success.”

“While these short-term results are promising, the studies only lasted eight weeks,” the dietitian noted. “Black cumin seed alone isn’t a magic bullet for preventing obesity but may play a supportive role in weight management when combined with an overall healthy lifestyle.”

The spice also contains a compound called thymoquinone, which is rich in antioxidants and could offer additional benefits.

Businesses may soon be required to accept cash under new state proposal

Ohioans could soon be shopping like it’s 1999 if legislators pass the Currency Access to Spend Here (CASH) bill, which would require businesses and government offices to accept cash for payments up to $500.

The bill would require businesses and government entities to provide at least one point-of-sale location that accepts cash. Additionally, it bans them from charging those using cash for a transaction a higher price than those using other payment methods.

TARGET SLASHES PRICES ON THOUSANDS OF ITEMS IN BID TO REVIVE SLIPPING SALES

“It’s simple, cash is the basis for business in America. Our taxpayers should always have the ability to use cash in their daily lives,” said Ohio state Rep. David Thomas (R-Jefferson), who introduced House Bill 554.

“I hear from residents who may not trust virtual payment options or just prefer to use physical cash. This bill balances the needs of government and business to be efficient with the ability to still rely on physical currency,” Thomas added.

As retailers, such as Target, Walmart and Costco move towards self-checkout methods that often do not accept cash, this could mean some major changes to their strategy. However, it may not necessarily mean hiring more staff, as the bill states that the cash point-of-sale can be “automated or operated by a person.”

Thomas’ bill mirrors one that Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., and Sen. Kevan Cramer, R-N.D., introduced, known as the Payment Choice Act of 2025. Their bill would also require businesses to accept cash and bar them from charging a higher price to those who chose to pay in cash.

Fox Business reached out to Target, Walmart and Costco for comment.
