With the soundtrack of Led Zeppelin’s Stairway to Heaven, the trailer opens with magician Andrew Ketterley (Daniel Craig) intoning that “sometimes one story is the beginning to all the others”, as he gives a group of kids a magic ring that will transport them to strange and wonderful lands. Elsewhere, the trailer gives a first look at many...
  • Elon Musk ordered the Starlink restrictions that disabled Ukrainian drones, defenses - report

    Elon Musk was behind the speed restrictions placed on the military-grade version of Starlink used by Ukrainian forces, the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday night, citing US officials and people familiar with the matter. SpaceX first placed a limit on some services in Ukraine on October 13 without warning. Ukrainian officials at the time feared the move by Musk's company may have been made at the request of US President Donald Trump. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that Ukraine was unable to use its interceptors against Russian drone attacks as a result of the restrictions on Saturday, saying that...

    Christina Applegate has revealed her doctor told her she does not have multiple sclerosis (MS) – despite battling debilitating symptoms for more than five years. Applegate, 54, who announced her diagnosis in summer of 2021, made the shock revelation on a new episode of her Messy podcast with co-host Jamie-Lynn Sigler – with the pair discussing their respective battles with MS. Speaking of the moment her doctor told her, a tearful Applegate, who was recently hospitalized, said: 'She came into my room and said, "Congratulations, you don’t have MS”. 'I was, like, not happy at all. Everybody else was so...

    “PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — More human remains discovered during a cleanup at a homeless camp in Downtown Portland on Monday may be linked to remains found in the Old Town area less than a week ago. According to the Portland Police Bureau (PPPB), officers were called out to an area near W. Burnside Street and Interstate 405 just after 12:30 p.m. when a cleanup crew located the remains in a homeless encampment. Investigators did not say what remains were found or in what condition they were in. On Tuesday, Oct. 13, a crew with Rapid Response discovered human remains in...

    In January 2026, Anthropic announced a new approach to AI safety. Rather than hard-coding a list of rules and decision procedures, the company would train its model, Claude, on an 84-page "constitution" meant to instill "good judgment" and "ethical character." "Rules often fail to anticipate every situation and can lead to poor outcomes when followed rigidly in circumstances where they don't actually serve their goal," the constitution explained. "Good judgment, by contrast, can adapt to novel situations and weigh competing considerations in ways that static rules cannot." With the exception of a few bright lines—"Claude should never" create bioweapons, for...

    On Tuesday, Oct. 20, FiftyPlusOne reached out to Wedgewood Polls, a self-professed polling firm, with a request for comment on an investigation we had conducted into their alleged survey research. They did not respond to our request, but instead posted a public statement on social media admitting that they had been fabricating data. They also reached out directly in social media DMs minutes before publishing their memo with an official comment: “**** you,” plus the name of an individual not affiliated with FiftyPlusOne. Their statement alleges that FiftyPlusOne, the New York Times, and other poll aggregators did not conduct appropriate...

    A New Jersey woman is accused of poisoning an acquaintance's tea during a meeting at a local restaurant to discuss suspicious activity in the victim's bank accounts, authorities said.

    NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — A Jonesboro, Georgia, woman has been arrested in connection with a phone scam in which a caller allegedly posed as a police officer and convinced a victim to send money for bail, according to the North Charleston Police Department. Police said a woman reported on Dec. 4, 2025, that she had been scammed several days earlier. The victim told investigators that on Nov. 30, while she was at a pharmacy, she received a phone call from someone identifying himself as “Sgt. Daniels” with the Charleston County Detention Center. The caller allegedly told the woman that...

    The man who wants to live forever isn’t entirely sure why. “Why do I need to defend that life is good?” asks Bryan Johnson, the most recognisable face of the biohacking movement, who is dead set on denying life’s only inevitability: that it ends. He treats ageing as a technological problem to be solved, spending $2m (£1.5m) a year turning himself into a human guinea pig in a data-fuelled quest to slow the process, with each minute of his day monitored. In an interview with The Telegraph, the tech-bro-turned-longevity guru describes himself as a messiah-type figure who preaches that death...
  • Voters’ Guide to Judicial Election & Retention (New Mexico, revised)

    New Mexico GOP ^ | September, 2026 | New Mexico GOP
    The importance of judicial elections cannot be overstated. The current crime crisis in New Mexico is not solely a criminal or law enforcement issue, it also involves the judiciary. Judges play a significant role in the outcomes of criminal cases and have discretion when it comes to ‘catch and release’ issues that plague our state. Voters should make informed decisions about who is elected and/or who is retained as a judge. Your NO vote is important in that a judge must gain 57% of votes to be retained. This listing shows only judges not recommended for retention. The second listing...

    As the French right-wing National Rally is seizing on fiery protests in the country for its pre-election pitch, so are President Trump and his Republican allies in the U.S. The big picture: The Trump administration has used the unrest, which began over education grievances, to bolster its messaging on immigration and the threat of "communists," a group Trump has repeatedly claimed is threatening American civilization. Driving the news: "When you see burning steeples and raging fires in France, just remember that is what the radical 'Dumocrats' want to do to America," Trump said before a Kansas rally crowd Monday.

  • Watchdog files Hatch Act complaint over federal investigation into Ilhan Omar (Is the illegal still eligible?)

    Washington Examiner ^ | 10/14/26 | David Zimmermann
    A progressive watchdog filed a formal Hatch Act complaint with the U.S. Office of Special Counsel one day after federal agents raided the Washington, D.C., home of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) this week. The predawn search of her property came four days before early voting for Minnesota starts this election cycle. The Democracy Defenders Fund, which filed the complaint on Tuesday, found the timing of the raid troubling. The left-of-center group called on special counsel Charles Baldis to investigate whether Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Joseph Edlow, Attorney General Todd Blanche, or any employee...

    President Donald Trump is approaching the midpoint of his second term, so it’s a good time to evaluate what he has accomplished on immigration issues. On the National Question (immigration and national identity), Trump’s achievements over the past two years are quite impressive. Trump solved the border crisis so decisively, the public has practically forgotten it was ever a problem. The border is under control, few cross it illegally, and catch-and-release has been terminated. In August, the Trump administration announced that 3 million illegal aliens had left the country since Jan. 2025: 985,000 were removed and 2.2 million self-deported. That...

Last week, Musk capped the speeds at which Ukrainian hardware could stay connected to the satellite-based network, the people said, rendering some offensive drones and interceptor drones virtually useless.Musk and Trump...

    ICE confirmed its agents arrested 51-year-old Milton Ramos-Rodriguez in San Francisco's SoMa neighborhood after bystander footage showed tactical and plainclothes officers detaining him. Federal authorities stated Ramos-Rodriguez is from El Salvador and had a prior voluntary manslaughter conviction in California. They also said he was previously deported. Local immigrant rights advocates and city officials condemned the enforcement action, in which video shows an agent brandishing a gun. City officials are now working to secure emergency funds for immigrant legal services.
