Free Republic

If anything, this article under-reports the threat of Iran's influence in the US. It does not really delve into the lobby system created here, and funded by shell corporations that have successfully evaded the sanctions. Also, the article seems to imply that the influence system is limited to Shiite network. But the rulers of Iran, flush with cash, have built a network of mosques, Islamic centers, cultural centers and schools throughout the US. And they are not limiting their reach and message to Shiite Islam. Wherever necessary, they are happy to reach Sunnis, including Arabs, Pakis, and Africans. By and...

Today we’re announcing Project Glasswing1, a new initiative that brings together Amazon Web Services, Anthropic, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, JPMorganChase, the Linux Foundation, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Palo Alto Networks in an effort to secure the world’s most critical software. We formed Project Glasswing because of capabilities we’ve observed in a new frontier model trained by Anthropic that we believe could reshape cybersecurity. Claude Mythos2 Preview is a general-purpose, unreleased frontier model that reveals a stark fact: AI models have reached a level of coding capability where they can surpass all but the most skilled humans at finding and exploiting...

MAZE@mazemooreCNN right before we hit Iran's nuclear facilities last year: There is no need for this. Iran isn't close to having a nuclear weapon.CNN immediately after last year's strike: The mission failed, Iran is closer than ever to having a nuclear weapon.CNN right before we hit Iran this year: There is no need for this. Iran isn't close to having a nuclear weapon.Spoiler alert. This is how Democrats/MSM will be, with everything, for the next three years. It's exactly how they were on everything Trump did during his first five years. April 7, 2026

"You are the heirs of this land's patriotic and honorable commanders — from Aryobarzan, Bahram Chobin, and Surena, to Babak Khorramdin, Yaqub Laith, and Maziar, to Jahanbani, Khosrowdad, and Rahimi. How can you remain silent and inactive in the face of foreign criminal agents affiliated with the Islamic Republic parading and boasting in Iran's streets — from Hashd al-Shaabi and Lebanese Hezbollah to Afghan and Pakistani terrorists? The Islamic Republic and its terrorist, repressive IRGC have, before your very eyes, slaughtered tens of thousands of the purest and bravest children of this country, and each day send more to their...

It appears that so many "elites" are making statements and publishing their financial moves (Bershire Hathaway admitting they're sittingon 400 billion in cash) in an effort to get retail customers (general public) to sell share or move their 401k accounts to cash (sell out) in order to get the market to crash. They have probably already shorted most everything and are hoping to make big bucks on the selloff. It doesn't look like it's working. So many financial pundits are screaming we're going to have a crash that the roar is deafining. However, the markets are still holding up and...

Today, the Department of Justice and the FBI announced a court-authorized technical operation to neutralize the U.S. portion of a network of small office/home office (SOHO) routers compromised by a unit within Russia’s Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff (GRU) Military Unit 26165, also known as APT28, Sofacy Group, Forest Blizzard, Pawn Storm, Fancy Bear, and Sednit. The unit used the routers to facilitate malicious Domain Name System (DNS) hijacking operations against worldwide targets of intelligence interest to the Russian government, including individuals in the military, government, and critical infrastructure sectors.Since at least 2024, GRU actors have exploited known...

MJTruthUltra@MJTruthUltra·14hProfessor David Clements, once a Never Trumper, highlights four key reasons he will Not turn on President Trump right now1. If Trump was bad, evil would not try to kill him2. If Trump did not threaten the old order, the bot press would not lie about him every hour of every day3. A man cannot be the servant of evil if his mere being has woken more people to the face of evil than any other thing in our time4. No man can play the deep game, and at the same time be led around by the nose like a...

During their mission to the Moon, the Artemis II astronauts will serve as both scientists and research subjects, participating in five studies that explore how deep-space travel affects the human body, mind and behaviour. These experiments are essential for keeping astronauts healthy on longer missions and for developing technologies, protocols and preventive measures. 1. ARCHeR (Artemis Research for Crew Health and Readiness) ARCHeR is a cutting-edge study that monitors astronauts' sleep patterns, stress levels, cognitive performance, and teamwork dynamics using wearable wristbands. These devices collect real-time physiological and behavioral data, helping researchers understand how isolation, confinement, and the unique environment...

The FBI says your Wi-Fi network could be a target for hackers. Here's how to protect yourself. *snip* The FBI bulletin specifically named older Linksys routers that are no longer receiving software patches or security updates.

California has the world's 4th biggest economy, but this shows what would happen if several eastern states were merged into one state of similar geographic size.

The human population has already grown too large and demanding for Earth to sustainably support at current consumption levels, a new study warns. Based on more than two centuries of population data, a team led by Corey Bradshaw of Flinders University in Australia found humanity is living well beyond the bounds of what our planet can support long-term. Ecologists describe the ability of an environment to sustain a species' population as its "carrying capacity". It's an estimate of the number of individuals from any given species that can survive long-term, based on the resources at hand and the rate at...

MAZE@mazemoore·21hThis scandal should be revisited and investigated further. Be sure to watch both videos in this thread.Gavin Newsom's wife has made a few documentaries. They shouldn't be called documentaries because they are just trashy movies bashing men and bashing America.Here's where it gets interesting.In 2023 the watchdog group Open The Books discovered that some of her documentaries were being streamed in the California public schools and that the Newsom's made millions by charging the schools to play them.In other words, the Newsoms made the schools force the kids to watch these disgusting movies created by Newsom's wife, and they...

The tactic of posing as merely "criticizing" or "skeptical" rather than promoting extremist ideology is a historically recognized technique of Nazi propaganda, designed to make radical ideas seem reasonable to a mainstream audience.In short, Nazi ideology rarely presented itself solely as hatred, but rather as a necessary, "reasonable" defense of a "master race" against alleged threats.
