    Zuckerberg responded to questions from the House Judiciary Committee, explaining the moderation of online content on social media platforms, including addressing reports that the Biden administration tried to censor multiple social media companies. "There's a lot of talk right now, about how the U.S. government interacts with companies like Meta, and I want to be clear about our position," Zuckerberg said in a letter to the committee. "Our platforms are for everyone -- we're about promoting speech and helping people connect in a safe and secure way." Zuckerberg explained that the Biden administration pressured his team for months in 2021...

    For over a year, surface temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean hit new highs, but that trend has reversed at record speed over the past few months, and nobody knows why. {skip obligatory global warming bs next few paragraphs...} NOAA data shows Atlantic sea surface temperatures have cooled at a surprising rate since May. Since June began, temperatures have been a degree or two Fahrenheit colder than normal for this time of year. That means El Niño will likely be replaced by its counterpart, La Niña, a weather system that allows cold water to rise to the surface of the Atlantic,...

    An autonomous surveillance robot has taken the leading charge of assuring safety in Atlanta’s Old Fourth Ward. That area had been home to various violent crimes over the past seven months, specifically the Boulevard Street area. The Boulevard street had almost become a focal point for public safety in the neighborhood. Natives staying in the area revealed that they see bullets all across the street at frequent intervals. Incidents like these leave them scared since they see and hear everything. The Atlanta Police Department has shared that 34 crimes have been reported in that area in the past seven months....

  • Kyiv warns Belarus to pull its troops back from the Ukrainian border or risk making a 'tragic mistake' as 'Wagner forces join war games on frontier' amid growing fears Lukashenko may order invasion

    Kyiv has warned Putin-allied Belarus to pull its troops back from the Ukrainian border or risk making a 'tragic mistake'. Ukraine's foreign ministry accused Belarus of 'concentrating a significant number of personnel on the countries' in the Gomel region near Ukraine's northern border 'under the guise of exercises' in a statement last night. It warned Belarus 'not to make tragic mistakes for their country under Moscow's pressure' and urged the country ruled by the iron fist of Putin-ally Alexander Lukashenko 'to cease unfriendly actions'. Kyiv said Belarusian special forces and former Wagner mercenary fighters were among the troops at the...

    The detention of Pavel Durov, the founder of the Telegram messaging app, in Paris on Saturday has raised questions about the future of a platform that has come to define the public perception of Russia’s war in Ukraine. Russia’s invasion in 2022 helped transform Telegram from a niche communication tool for Russia’s educated classes into a global phenomenon. The app has allowed millions of people to follow battlefield developments in near real time, turned soldiers into the narrators of the conflict unfolding around them and gave both propagandists and dissidents a pulpit in the struggle for the hearts and minds...
  • Francis Ford Coppola Didn’t Want ‘Megalopolis’ to Be ‘Some Woke Hollywood Production’ and Says the Cast Includes ‘People Who Were Canceled’

    Francis Ford Coppola told Rolling Stone that his intention with “Megalopolis” was to make a movie that could not be deemed “some woke Hollywood production.” The cast includes controversial actors such as Jon Voight, who has turned heads in Hollywood for his conservative views and outspoken support for Donald Trump, and Shia LaBeouf, who was accused of sexual assault in 2021. “What I didn’t want to happen is that we’re deemed some woke Hollywood production that’s simply lecturing viewers,” Coppola said. “The cast features people who were canceled at one point or another. There were people who are archconservatives and...

    Criminals opened fire on at least 134 police officers during routine traffic stops from 2021 through 2023, federal data show. Now, an equity commission convened by the Biden-Harris administration wants to spend $20 million on a pilot program that would deploy unarmed cops to conduct traffic enforcement. The Advisory Committee on Transportation Equity, an Obama-era body revived by Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg last year, said in a report released this month that cops don’t need to carry guns or tasers with them when out on the streets enforcing traffic laws. The commission, whose membership includes an activist who once said...

    Former Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte criticized leaders of the Philippine National Police Monday after some 2,000 officers raided the 74-acre compound of fugitive televangelist and Kingdom of Jesus Christ leader Apollo Quiboloy in a bid to arrest him on charges of child abuse and human trafficking, which he and his followers have denied. Quiboloy, who is also on the FBI’s Most Wanted list for similar charges, including conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking by force, fraud, and the sex trafficking of children, remains on the run as his members continue to wage public protests and accumulate charges as they seek...

    More remarks that expose Vice President Kamala Harris’ totalitarian plans and oddball ideas have gone viral. The latest on the Democratic presidential nominee are her comments about seizing guns from law-abiding Americans, her former plan to eliminate private health insurance, and her bizarre claims that Covid-19 killed over 220 million Americans. The first vice president to believe computer data are stored in the air above one’s head, Harris is also notable for a faulty understanding of inflation and an oft-stated desire to redistribute wealth. The name for her ideology: Kamunism. Gun-grabber Kamala“The problem is that Congress does not have the...

    The Philippines and China have again clashed in the South China Sea, with Manila and Beijing trading accusations of responsibility for the latest maritime skirmish between the two neighbors amid their fight over sovereignty of the disputed waters. The incident occurred Sunday within the Spratly Islands, a disputed archipelago that is claimed by the Philippines and China, along with several other Asian nations. The Phillipines accused China of ramming and causing the engine failure of a Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources vessel that was on a "humanitarian mission" to resupply Filipino fisherman. It said eight ships of China's navy...

    The very weird Kamala campaign consists of its lead actress appearing only in pre-staged clips while recruiting nearly every Democrat elected official to act as her surrogates and her excuse-makers.That means they’re out there faced with the tough task of answering questions on her behalf.I almost feel sorry for them. Almost. The trouble is that many of them are almost as unprincipled as her.“The truth of the matter is, yes, she’s come to the middle. She’s pragmatic, she’s a tough leader, she’s the leader we need for the future,” Colorado Gov. Jared Polis told “Fox News Sunday.” “So again, while...

    The Supreme Court term that ended this summer delivered a number of big wins for traditional conservative causes. The court made it easier to challenge federal regulations. It made it harder to prosecute former presidents. And it delivered another decision that expanded the rights of gun enthusiasts.Those rulings left no doubt that the court, with a six-justice supermajority that had already upended abortion rights and affirmative action, is the most ideologically conservative Supreme Court since the early 1930s.Yet it is almost certainly not the most conservative federal court in the country.About 1,000 miles away, in New Orleans, the U.S. Court...
