    @X Free expression is fundamental to a healthy functioning global society – and if it’s taken away, it’s almost impossible to get back. That’s why we will continue to stand up for people’s rights, including the over half a billion of you who turn to our platform continually. Free expression and platform safety are not at odds. Despite our continued progress, the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and its backers have been actively working to assert false and misleading claims about X and actively working to prevent public dialogue. That’s why X has filed a legal claim against the...

    It is no exaggeration to say that the highly respected psychologist, Dr. Carl Jung, is the father of neo-Gnosticism and the New Age movement, which is why Dr. Jeffrey Satinover remarked, “One of the most powerful modern forms of Gnosticism is without question Jungian psychology, both within or without the Church“. (Satinover, The Empty Self, p. 27) Because of his great influence in propagating gnostic philosophy and morals in churches and synagogues, “…Jung deserves a closer look. The moral relativism that released upon us the sexual revolution is rooted in an outlook of which (Jung) is the most brilliant contemporary...

    A group of left-wing senators led by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., are demanding that the Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecute the fossil fuel industry over its alleged climate disinformation campaign. In a letter Monday to Attorney General Merrick Garland, the Senate coalition - joined also by Sens. Ed Markey, D-Mass., Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., and Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. - argued fossil fuel companies have conducted a "longstanding and carefully coordinated campaign" to mislead Americans about the risks posed by global warming and "discredit climate science" in pursuit of profits. If the DOJ were to pursue such a case again the fossil...

    American culture is becoming more hostile toward children as “pedophilia is growing,” Tim Ballard, a former special agent and the subject of the movie “Sound of Freedom,” told Fox News Digital.“Our American culture is actually normalizing sexual behavior with children by, for example, trying to change the name of a pedophile to a minor attracted person, the stuff they’re giving children under the guise of sexual education,” Ballard said. “It’s a dangerous time for children.”

    A vegan raw food influencer who lived on a diet of exotic fruit has reportedly died from starvation and exhaustion. Zhanna Samsonova, originally from Russia, had been living in South-East Asia and eating an exclusively raw vegan diet consisting of 'fruits, sunflower seed sprouts, fruit smoothies and juices' for the past five years. However her eating habits became worryingly restrictive in the last few months of her life according to her friends. The 40-year-old, known as Zhanna D'Art online, passed away on July 21 reportedly from a 'cholera-like infection' exacerbated by 'exhaustion of the body by a vegan diet' her...

    Dylan Mulvaney will charge $40,000 per visit to college campuses to give speeches to students - nearly doubling her fee from a year ago - months after she cost Bud Light billions in a now-disastrous marketing partnership. The trans influencer, 26, announced she was open to hire and wrote on Instagram: 'University and College friends! I am booking speaking opportunities for the upcoming 23/24 school year and would love to come visit.' Crista Spadafore, Mulvaney's agent, confirmed the fee for her to speak is $40,000, reports College Fix. The Bud Light partnership has seen Anheuser-Busch lose $27 billion in market...

    Staff at a Memphis Jewish school have been praised for their quick thinking after they blocked an armed man from entering and then called the police, leading to him being stopped shortly after. Workers at Margolin Hebrew Academy/Feinstone Yeshiva of the South called police at 12:20pm on Monday to report that a man with a handgun had tried to get into the school, and fired his gun outside. Michael Masters, CEO of the Secure Community Network, told Jewish Telegraphic Agency the suspect was a male in his 40s who tried to enter the school but was prevented from doing so...

    "In the state of Illinois, illegals can now become police officers. Yes, you heard that right,"Boebert tweeted on Sunday. "People who are breaking the law by their presence here can now arrest American citizens. You know the other blue states are watching and getting ready to implement this idea as soon as they can!" ... The bill was also denounced by the Fraternal Order of Police, an organization consisting of law enforcement officers nationwide. "What message does this legislation send when it allows people who do not have legal status to become the enforcers of our laws?" the FOP asked...

    MAGNOLIA, Ark.—Slipping a handgun into his belt, the mayor of this small town hopped out of his 1995 Ford pickup and went in search of further evidence of a new energy boom. On the other side of freshly painted gate, Mayor Parnell Vann pointed out a squat blue spire of valves, bolts and pressure gauges attached to a long-dormant well—a telltale sign someone means to bring it back to life. On the thick-wooded back roads, crisscrossing fields where oil drillers gave up long ago, Vann found two more similar wells that day. These days, companies in the area aren’t looking...

    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sat down with "Special Report" on Monday for a wide-ranging interview, offering insight into whether former President Donald Trump can win in a general election. DeSantis said he doesn’t believe Trump can win in 2024 because there are "too many voters who just aren't going to vote for him going forward." "I saw it in Florida in my re-election. You know, I won the first time by less than a percent, second time by ‘20. Why did people vote against me in ‘18 but then voted for me in ‘22? The number one reason they gave...
  • Canadian Pastor Convicted of Inciting Mischief in Trucker Protests Facing Up to 10 Years Prison

    Art Pawlowski set to return to court on Aug. 9.. Pastor Artur Pawlowski's troubles with the Canadian authorities began long before his sermon to commercial truckers encouraging their peaceful defiance against what he thought were "oppressive" public health mandates for COVID-19. In 2005, he began serving and ministering to downtown Calgary—Alberta's poor and downtrodden. "In other words, feeding the homeless and praying for them, which is now illegal," he described to The Epoch Times in a telephone interview while under house arrest in Calgary following his court conviction in May for inciting mischief and violating his release conditions. The police...

    A half-century ago today, South Korean strongman Syngman Rhee, winner of that country’s 1956 presidential election, had the runner-up hanged for treason. Cho Pong-am (or Cho Bong-am), who cut his teeth as a young Communist in the 1920’s and 30’s but had become an independent socialist since, won over 2.1 million votes as the Progressive Party candidate in 1956, on a platform of peaceful reunification with North Korea — the outstanding political issue in South Korea at the time. The position had some popularity as against Rhee’s “march North” policy of conquering North Korea by force. Peaceful unification and support...

As of 27 July this year, 178 applications had been approved, representing 479 beneficiaries. This represents a third of all applications submitted.In total, 528 Afghan citizens living in Ireland...
