Israel appears to be blackmailing America with the threat of starting World War III in order to extract even more money out of struggling US taxpayers.
The US has reportedly offered Israel a “compensation package” if it refrains from attacking certain targets in Iran, according to a report in Kan11 on Sunday.

Meant to provide internet access in unserved, mostly rural areas
President Joe Biden’s 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) earmarked tens of billions of taxpayer dollars for expanding broadband internet, yet, more than three years later, not a single project is underway.
The $1.2 trillion law earmarked over $42 billion to provide internet access in unserved, mostly rural areas, with Biden once describing the initiative as “not unlike what Roosevelt did with electricity.” However, not a single project funded by the initiative has broken ground, with federal subsidies not expected to reach projects until 2025, largely due to a slew of regulatory hurdles, such as requirements for internet providers to participate in green initiatives and employ unionized workforces.

In 1759, Scotsman Adam Smith, who is widely regarded as the world’s first true economist, published his first great work, The Theory of Moral Sentiments. In it, he postulated that all social evolution can be attributed to “individual human action,” as opposed to “individual human design.”
By this, he meant that whatever understanding worked well between any two people was likely to lead to progress. The reason for this was that such agreements would, of necessity, be based upon “trust and empathy.”
He believed that, if mankind were left alone to sort out all commerce and other interaction on their own, using truth and empathy, they’d succeed at moving the society forward.

“Mr. Chairman, esteemed members of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, ladies and gentlemen.
The transition from years of confinement in a maximum-security prison to standing here before the representatives of 46 nations and 700 million people is a profound and surreal shift.
The experience of isolation for years in a small cell is difficult to convey; it strips away one’s sense of self, leaving only the raw essence of existence.
I am not yet fully equipped to speak about what I have endured – the relentless struggle to stay alive, both physically and mentally, nor can i speak yet about the deaths by hanging, murder, and medical neglect of my fellow prisoners.

Conspiracy theories are circulating the web about what really happened with Hurricane Helene and how it is allowing the federal government to seize valuable land underneath which are large deposits of valuable minerals.
Some analysts say there was unusual atmospheric activity during Helene’s track that appears to have produced such a high voltage that something was able to “push” it towards the areas that got hit the hardest. The reason could have to do with all those valuable minerals.

“Illegal drugs” is a very well-defined category in the EU. “Hate speech,” on the other hand, is not. Yet, the bloc is lumping these together as it builds another case for putting even more pressure on major social platforms and demands more data from them.
The EU is doing this via the censorship law, the Digital Services Act (DSA), and is this time targeting YouTube, Snapchat, and TikTok. In the tone and nature of the demands, the EU puts them in two groups here: two companies from the US, and one from China.

On 20 July 2022, BBC aired a documentary titled ‘Unvaccinated’. BBC had commissioned the documentary in which mathematician Professor Hannah Fry sought to “understand why a portion of the population remained unvaccinated against covid.” Or so the BBC claimed.
One of the people Prof. Fry interviewed was Nazarin Veronica, a young woman from London. “The manipulation I was going through [during the five days of filming] was just unreal. Not just me, everyone [who was unvaccinated],” she said.

First, we need background context.
The latter part of 2010 through 2011 was a key period in the Obama presidency. On the cusp of a midterm election shellacking, with domestic focus on the issues around Obamacare, the Obama team and Hillary Clinton team were also intent on fueling the “Arab Spring” and the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood in Libya and Egypt.

As Israelis mourn October 7, Hamas chose to launch its heaviest missile barrage on Israel in months, which Israel’s military says it was mostly able to thwart through its missile defenses.
The terror group even timed its rockets to the coincide precisely with the start of memorial events across the country. Regular rocket attacks had previously largely ceased amid the ongoing ground war in the central and south parts of the Gaza Strip, but for now they’ve resumed.

Elon Musk predicted that if Trump doesn’t win the upcoming presidential election, it will be ‘the last’ election for America.
Business mogul Elon Musk declared during Saturday’s Trump rally that he believes the upcoming U.S. presidential election is “the most important” we will live to see.
“I think this election is the most important election of our lifetime. This is no ordinary election,” said Musk, while alongside Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, the same location where the president nearly lost his life just three months ago.
