Hackers operating under the banner of Anonymous have released more data from Epik, the controversial web hosting company known for offering refuge to the far-right. In a press release titled “You Lost The Game,” the hacktivist group announced on Monday part three of what it has dubbed “Operation EPIK FAIL.” The latest leak is alleged to contain more bootable disk images of Epik’s servers as well as a data backup linked to the Republican Party of Texas, which is said to include “private documents” and “draft articles that didn’t make the narrative cut.” The Texas GOP website had been defaced...

Maybe you make an incredible cheese sandwich. Maybe you make a sandwich so good, with melty, gooey cheese and ham, that no other sandwich can compare. Perhaps you add relish, or a little smear of mustard for a nose-tingling kick. Perhaps you hold strong opinions about whether ketchup belongs in a cheese sandwich (it doesn’t). Maybe you’re all cheese-sandwiched out: From the pimento sandwich and the steamed cheeseburger to the artisanal sandwich with chèvre, guanciale, and fig jam, you’ve had them all. Until you haven’t. By the grace of the sandwich gods and some venturous hot dog joints in Fall...

The UK Ministry of Defence has unveiled their intentions to spy on social media platforms in order to uncover ‘thought crimes’ perpetrated by British people. The military will begin “automated scanning of social media platforms” to detect “changes in population sentiment,” according to a MoD Data Strategy for Defence paper. There’s nothing frightening about that… nothing at all. “Nowhere does the document explain why a strategy paper has gone so far off the beaten track that it promotes collecting data the MoD doesn’t have and using it for decidedly non-military purposes,” notes the Register. Since the beginning of the COVID...

President Biden responded to the confrontations Democratic Sens. Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema have faced in recent days amid their lack of support for critical items in his agenda, saying he doesn’t think the tactics used against them are "appropriate," but said it is "part of the process." Activists confronted Manchin, D-W.Va., and Sinema, D-Ariz., over the weekend amid a fight to increase the debt ceiling and support Democrats’ $3.5 trillion spending bill. When asked Monday for a response to the incidents, Biden said: "I don’t think they’re appropriate tactics, but it happens to everybody." "The only people it doesn’t...

Rivian, the electric automaker backed by Amazon, Ford and a cornucopia of heavy-hitting institutional investors like T. Rowe Price Associates and Coatue, finally made its once-confidential IPO filing public.The company, which started in 2009 as Mainstream Motors before adopting the Rivian name two years later, has exploded in terms of people, backers and partners in the past few years. Rivian operated in secret for years before it revealed prototypes of its all-electric R1T truck and R1S SUV at the LA Auto Show in late 2018. Since then, Rivian has raised about $11 billion ($10.5 billion of which was raised since...

The Pfizer COVID-19 mRNA vaccine was found to be associated with a threefold increased risk of myocarditis, according to a real-world case-control study from Israel. Vaccination had a strong association with an increased risk of myocarditis (risk ratio [RR] 3.24, 95% CI 1.55-12.44, risk difference 2.7 events per 100,000 persons), as well as increased risks of lymphadenopathy (RR 2.43, 95% CI 2.05-2.78, 78.4 per 100,000), appendicitis (RR 1.40, 95% CI 1.02-2.01, 5.0 per 100,000), and herpes zoster infection (RR 1.43, 95% CI 1.20-1.73, 15.8 per 100,000), reported Ran Balicer, MD, of Clalit Health Services in Tel Aviv, and colleagues. However,...

Wharton finance professor Jeremy Siegel said he thinks the Federal Reserve is underestimating the degree to which inflation will be a problem, likely forcing the central bank into a sharper pivot away from stimulus and potentially catching markets off guard. Siegel, known for upbeat forecasts, made the gloomy prediction in an interview on CNBC on Oct. 1, saying he thinks “we’re headed for some trouble ahead.” “Inflation, in general, is going to be a much bigger problem than the Fed believes,” Siegel said, adding that he believes the persistence of elevated prices is going to pressure the Fed to accelerate...

Earlier it was reported that Facebook and affiliates are down. About 5 minutes ago Cox Cable went down too. Even their website is down. We are looking at something more encompassing than just Facebook I think.

A publicly funded university is using federal grants to engage in grotesque experiments using aborted babies, yet those in positions to act have thus far been silent.Nearly 100 members of Congress asked the Biden administration for details on the University of Pittsburgh’s federally funded research on aborted babies in a recent letter. Pitt officials should be working with law enforcement to conduct a full investigation of the grotesque, immoral, and potentially illegal actions the university has taken in its treatment of preborn human beings. Pitt should provide complete transparency regarding how the university obtains and experiments on these aborted babies.Even...

<p>Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley conceded to Congress last week that he has been an anonymous source to controversial “inside” progressive muckrakers detailing the supposed dysfunctions of the prior administration. He strangely characterizes such anonymous, self-serving, behind-the-scenes leaking as some sort of public-service transparency. Evidently, it is now a part of the chairman’s duties to serve the media.</p>

Robinson was caught last year using nearly $1 million in taxpayer money to fund her lavish wedding and personal lifestyle. Lt. Gov. Randy McNally has called on Robinson to do the decent thing and resign immediately. “While Senator Robinson’s convictions did not stem from actions taken while in office, they are nevertheless very serious,” McNally declared in a statement. “As public servants, we are held to a higher standard.“ “My personal opinion is that it would be in the best interest of the state and her constituents for Senator Robinson to step down at this time.”

Australia is a cultural and historical brother of America. But now Australia is a warning to America of how much freedom can be lost. When Victoria Police attacked me legally in 2016 for wanting to commemorate WW2 with tree plantings, I woke up to The Left. Then they persecuted Cardinal George Pell. Now their police look like stormtroopers to conservative former Prime Minister Tony Abbott. Australia and America have a long standing alliance. But the defence of Australia is not the defence of freedom. Not in Socialist Left Victoria.

During a House Armed Services Committee hearing about the U.S.'s withdrawal from Afghanistan, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wy) apologized for her fellow Republicans' "despicable questioning" of Gen. Mark Milley. "My Republican colleagues would have the American people believe that the General's efforts to undermine former President Trump were a violation of his duty to the Commander-in-Chief," Cheney said. "Well, when the Commander-in-Chief was Donald Trump the only sane thing for a patriot to do was to oppose him in any way possible." "Gen. Milley's covert machination with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) to circumvent the chain of command was a valiant...
