Built in just 122 days and powered by NVIDIA’s groundbreaking Spectrum-X Ethernet networking, “Colossus is the most powerful training system in the world,” Elon Musk wrote on X. 

This supercomputer, housing 100,000 NVIDIA Hopper GPUs, supports xAI’s Grok large language models and brings ultra-fast AI capabilities. The Spectrum-X platform delivers 95% data throughput with zero latency degradation -- levels traditional Ethernet can’t achieve -- redefining scalable, high-performance AI.

NVIDIA has revealed in a press release, and Musk has confirmed that xAI is doubling the size of the supercluster. "xAI is in the process of doubling the size of Colossus to a combined total of 200,000 NVIDIA Hopper GPUs," he wrote.

Illegal alien Luis Diego Hernandez-Moncayo, 27, was tracked down by cops, after a Florida woman reportedly called 911 for help while pretending to order pizza as the 27-year-old was aggressively trying to rape her.

"This weekend, our 911 center got a call from a woman ordering a pizza close to 4 a.m.," said Volusia County Sheriff Mike Chitwood.  "What the dispatcher quickly figured out was that the caller was really in danger."

Deputies were able to locate the call. "Thank you Jesus!" the woman cried after officers tackled the illegal alien suspect.

"He’s now sitting in jail, charged with attempted s*xual battery, battery by strangulation, and false imprisonment, with an immigration detainer from the U.S. Border Patrol," Chitwood said.

Critics point out that the open borders policy of the left-wing Biden-Harris administration means that criminal illegal aliens like Hernandez-Moncayo are routinely caught and released into the country by immigration officials.

Former president Donald Trump who's running against vice president Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, has made tougher immigration policy the central theme of his campaign. Under his administration, Trump says, criminal illegal aliens like Hernandez-Moncayo would not be in the country.

SpaceX has won a bid to launch 9 missions for the U.S. Space Force starting as early as late 2025. The nine launches which USSF's Space Systems Command(SSC) announced Friday, include seven with groups of spacecraft for the Space Development Agency(SDA)'s constellation of missile tracking and data relay satellites; and two for the National Reconnaissance Office(NRO), the US government's spy satellite agency.

The Elon Musk company beat United Launch Alliance (ULA), to win the $733.5 million contract. According to a SSC spokesperson, six of the nine missions will launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, while the other three will lift off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida.

This is the Space Force's first firm order for rocket launches in the so-called Phase 3 round of launch procurements. The Force has divided 79 missions up for competition in Phase 3 into two classifications: Lane 1 and Lane 2.

"We are excited to kick off our innovative NSSL Phase 3 Lane 1 effort with two task orders that support critical NRO and SDA missions," said Lt. Col. Douglas Downs, Space Systems Command's materiel leader for space launch procurement. "Industry stepped up to the plate and delivered on this competition."

While Jeff Bezo's Blue Origin is on the Space Force's list of available launch providers, the company's New Glenn rocket was not eligible for the contracts announced Friday. Military officials require a rocket to complete at least one successful orbital launch to become qualified. The rule left launch vehicles from SpaceX and ULA as the only qualifing ones. The Musk company prevailed, winning all nine Lane 1 missions up for competition this year.

SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy are currently certified for national security launches, and the Space Force is in the process of certifying ULA's Vulcan after two successful test flights.

SpaceX on Friday, released Buoy-mounted camera footage from the Indian Ocean, showing the flip maneuver and landing burn of Starship's upper stage(or Ship 30).

According to the Elon Musk company, improvements made to Ship 30 ensured its flaps "were protected from high heating, resulting in a controlled entry and high accuracy splashdown at the targeted area."

During flight test 4, Ship 29's flaps could not withstand the high heating during re-entry and landing.

Kentucky man TJ Hoover came 'back to life' as surgeons began the process of harvesting his body parts after he was declared brain dead.

"I feel betrayed by the fact that the people that were telling us he was brain dead, and then he wakes up," his sister told reprters.

The family had reportedly raised concerns that Hoover was alive because his eyes seemed open and he looked around while being wheeled to the operating room. Doctors dismissed it as a "common reflex."

At one point, Hoover was reportedly sedated when he started thrashing and crying. And doctors reportedly planned to go forward with the organ recovery, which was ultimately canceled.

The incident is under investigation by the Kentucky Attorney General and US Health Services Resources Administration.

In a recent CNN interview, Hillary Clinton, wife of former US president Bill Clinton and former secretary of state, called for even more censorship on social media platforms like YouTube, TikTok and Facebook; warning that not doing so will apparently lead to governments losing control over the narrative.

The 67th US secretary of state called for the repeal of Section 230 of the Communications Act. This 1996 law provides limited immunity for internet platforms from legal liability for user-generated content.

Repealing Section 230 would allow platforms to be held liable for user-generated content. This move would require platforms to take more proactive measures in moderating and monitoring content, potentially leading to increased censorship and limitations on free speech.

Clinton argues that the current lack of regulation has led to a situation where platforms are not held accountable for the content they host; claiming that without more censorship on platform like, X and Rumble, “we lose total control,” apparently referring to government control over the flow of information and so-called misinformation.

Critics, including free speech advocates, slammed Clinton's remarks as "authoritarian" and "fascist" and warned that repealing Section 230 could have unintended consequences, such as limitations on free expression, chilling effects on creativity, and government abuse of power.

NASA astronaut and U.S. Space Force colonel Nick Hague and Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexandr Gorbunov floated aboard the International Space Station(ISS) following the opening of the hatches between their Crew Dragon Freedom and the ISS. Freedom docked to the orbital lab's Harmony module at 2130 UTC, on Sunday Sept. 29, as both spacecraft soar about 418 kilometers over the Coral Sea.

The Crew Dragon duo were welcomed aboard at about 2315 UTC, by the Epedition 72 crew and the stranded Boeing Starliner crewmates Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams who will be hitching a ride home in Freedom in February with Hague and Gorbunov.

Crew-9 launched Saturday afternoon (Sept. 28), the first human crew launch from Space Launch Complex-40 (SLC-40) at Florida's Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, sending Hague and Gorbunov into orbit.

Crew-9 Dragon makes it 2 SpaceX spacecraft currently docked to the space station. NASA's Michael Barratt, Matthew Dominick, Jeanette Epps, and cosmonaut Alexander Grebenkin came up with SpaceX's Crew-8 mission in March. They will be head back to Earth in a few weeks.

With Hague and Gorbunov aboard, there are now 11 total in the space station including NASA's Donald Pettit, and cosmonauts Aleksey Ovchinin and Ivan Wagner.

SpaceX releases a video showing highlights of the views from the Polaris Dawn Crew Dragon(a.k.a. Resilience) as it flies through space during the historic 5-day mission during which the spacecraft completed 75 orbits around Earth.

Aboard Resilience, are mission funder and commander Jared Isaacman, mission specialists Sarah Gillis and Anna Menon and pilot Scott 'Kidd' Poteet, a former lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Air Force.

During Polaris Dawn the crew completed a historic commercial spacewalk and spacesuit tests, and Gillis released an inspiring viral music video 'Harmony of Resilience.' The crew also conducted about 40 scientific experiments and tests.

Mossad allegedly intercepted and planted explosives in a shipment of 5,000 pagers and other devices used in the coordinated attack this week, during which thousands of devices exploded in Beirut and Southern Lebanon killing dozens. Hezbollah reportedly ordered the shipment from a Taiwanese company, Gold Apollo.

The pagers were a new brand, AP924, which the Islamic militant group had not used before.

BAC Consulting was reportedly identified as a front company set up by Mossad in Budapest, which sold the pagers to Hezbollah. A Hungarian company was also mentioned in relation to manufacturing the devices in cooperation with a Taiwanese company, which itself might be an Israeli front. An unnamed Israeli company established to target Hezbollah, has also been supplying such devices since 2022.

These companies were either directly involved in manufacturing or supplying the pagers, or were part of the covert operation by Mossad to infiltrate Hezbollah's communication systems by providing them with compromised devices. The operation involved creating shell companies and fronts to mask the involvement of Israeli intelligence.

Polaris Dawn crew gives update on the details behind some of the ~40 science and research experiments being conducted during the mission. Many of these experiments will provide valuable data regarding human health in space ahead of future long-duration space missions.

SpaceX launched Polaris Dawn Crew Dragon on Sept. 10. Aboard are mission funder and commander Jared Isaacman; mission specialists Gillis and Anna Menon and pilot Scott 'Kidd' Poteet, a former lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Air Force.

Isaacman and Gillis took turns on Thursday Sept. 12, to perform the world's first commercial extravehicular activity(EVA) or spacewalk, about 735 km from Earth.

SpaceX Polaris Dawn mission astronaut and violinist Sarah Gillis on Friday(Sept 13), released the very inspiring masterpiece, recorded in space and sent to Earth via Starlink internet satellite. The music video which immediately went viral on social media, is dedicated to charity.

The song in the video, "Rey's Theme," was written by John Williams for "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" and was performed by Gillis aboard the Polaris Dawn mission's Crew Dragon spacecraft. In the video, Gillis can be seen playing the song's solo violin part alongside videos of orchestras performing the song in studios and on soundstages.

"As we travel around our beautiful planet Earth on this five-day mission, we wanted to share this special musical moment with you," Gillis says when introducing the video. "Bringing together global talent, this performance symbolizes unity and hope, highlighting the resilience and potential of children everywhere."

Resilience is also the name of the Crew Dragon spacecraft launched Tuesday (Sept. 10), by SpaceX on the Polaris Dawn mission. Aboard are mission funder and commander Jared Isaacman; mission specialists Gillis and Anna Menon and pilot Scott 'Kidd' Poteet, a former lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Air Force.

"Inspired by the universal language of music and the relentless fight against childhood cancers and diseases, this moment was created with the hope of inspiring the next generation to look towards the stars," the Polaris Program wrote of the music video, on its website. "The video was created in partnership with with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, for whom the Polaris Program is raising money throughout the mission, and El Sistema USA, a program that aims to promote music education "for positive societal impact."

On Sept. 12, Gillis and Isaacman performed the world's first commercial extravehicular activity(EVA), about 735 km from Earth.

During the 1 hour 46 minutes spacewalk, Gillis and Isaacman took turns outside Crew Dragon, to test SpaceX's new EVA suits, which the Elon Musk company says will help enable future missions both in orbit around Earth and farther out into space, potentially on the moon or Mars.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill was pulled over, handcuffed and detained by police Sunday, about one block from the Hard Rock Stadium, where the team plays. The incident occurred hours before the team played against the Jacksonville Jaguars, a game they won.

In a body camera footage of the incident circulating online, the officers can be seen pulling Hill from his car and putting him in handcuffs after he refused repeated requests to open his window and exit the vehicle.

Hill received a citation for reckless driving and driving without a license, according Drew Rosenhaus, Hill's agent.

"Obviously, everybody has bad apples in every situation, so I want to be able to use this platform to figure out a way to flip this and make it a positive on both ends -- on my end, and then also Miami-Dade -- so that way we can team together and do something positive for the community, 'cause that's what it's all about," Hill said in a postgame interview; adding that he has respect for police officers and wants to be one someday.

"I'm not going to give you a version that I still don't know what happened," he said. "But I do want to be able to use this platform to say, 'What if I wasn't Tyreek Hill?'" He added, "I wasn't disrespectful 'cause my mom didn't raise me that way. Didn't cuss, didn't do none of that."

The Miami-Dade Police Department will be reviewing body camera footage of the incident, Director Stephanie Daniels said on X. An officer involved has been placed on administrative duty following the incident.

"I'm committed to transparency and accountability to the community with any situation involving my officers," she said.

Dolphins defeated the Jaguars 20-17. Hill finished with seven catches and 130 yards. After an 80-yard touchdown reception, he appeared to pretend to be handcuffed during an end zone celebration.

Critics online have pointed out that the officers initially approached Hill respectfully, until he shut his window in their faces and briefly refused repeated requests to "keep the window down."

Pavel Durov has made his first public statements since his arrest in Paris last month. In a statement published on X and his personal Telegram channel, he denied allegations that Telegram is an “anarchic paradise” and criticized the French authorities’ approach as “misguided.”

The 39-year-old wrote on X Friday:

"Thanks everyone for your support and love!

"Last month I got interviewed by police for 4 days after arriving in Paris. I was told I may be personally responsible for other people’s illegal use of Telegram, because the French authorities didn’t receive responses from Telegram.

"This was surprising for several reasons:

1. Telegram has an official representative in the EU that accepts and replies to EU requests. Its email address has been publicly available for anyone in the EU who googles “Telegram EU address for law enforcement”.

2. The French authorities had numerous ways to reach me to request assistance. As a French citizen, I was a frequent guest at the French consulate in Dubai. A while ago, when asked, I personally helped them establish a hotline with Telegram to deal with the threat of terrorism in France.

3. If a country is unhappy with an internet service, the established practice is to start a legal action against the service itself. Using laws from the pre-smartphone era to charge a CEO with crimes committed by third parties on the platform he manages is a misguided approach. Building technology is hard enough as it is. No innovator will ever build new tools if they know they can be personally held responsible for potential abuse of those tools.

"Establishing the right balance between privacy and security is not easy. You have to reconcile privacy laws with law enforcement requirements, and local laws with EU laws. You have to take into account technological limitations. As a platform, you want your processes to be consistent globally, while also ensuring they are not abused in countries with weak rule of law. We’ve been committed to engaging with regulators to find the right balance. Yes, we stand by our principles: our experience is shaped by our mission to protect our users in authoritarian regimes. But we’ve always been open to dialogue.

"Sometimes we can’t agree with a country’s regulator on the right balance between privacy and security. In those cases, we are ready to leave that country. We've done it many times. When Russia demanded we hand over “encryption keys” to enable surveillance, we refused — and Telegram got banned in Russia. When Iran demanded we block channels of peaceful protesters, we refused — and Telegram got banned in Iran. We are prepared to leave markets that aren’t compatible with our principles, because we are not doing this for money. We are driven by the intention to bring good and defend the basic rights of people, particularly in places where these rights are violated.

"All of that does not mean Telegram is perfect. Even the fact that authorities could be confused by where to send requests is something that we should improve. But the claims in some media that Telegram is some sort of anarchic paradise are absolutely untrue. We take down millions of harmful posts and channels every day. We publish daily transparency reports. We have direct hotlines with NGOs to process urgent moderation requests faster.

"However, we hear voices saying that it’s not enough. Telegram’s abrupt increase in user count to 950M caused growing pains that made it easier for criminals to abuse our platform. That’s why I made it my personal goal to ensure we significantly improve things in this regard. We’ve already started that process internally, and I will share more details on our progress with you very soon.

"I hope that the events of August will result in making Telegram — and the social networking industry as a whole — safer and stronger. Thanks again for your love and memes "

Durov also made some major announcements:

"Telegram has reached 10 million paid subscribers. 10 million people are now enjoying Telegram Premium!

 "Today, we’re introducing new features while phasing out a few outdated ones.

 "We’ve removed the People Nearby feature, which was used by less than 0.1% of Telegram users, but had issues with bots and scammers.

 "In its place, we will be launching “Businesses Nearby”, showcasing legitimate, verified businesses. These businesses will be able to display product catalogs and accept payments seamlessly.

 "We’ve also disabled new media uploads to Telegraph, our standalone blogging tool, which seems to have been misused by anonymous actors.

 "While 99.999% of Telegram users have nothing to do with crime, the 0.001% involved in illicit activities create a bad image for the entire platform, putting the interests of our almost billion users at risk.

 "That’s why this year we are committed to turn moderation on Telegram from an area of criticism into one of praise."

Andrew Tate was released to house arrest Thursday, following a hearing in Bucharest while his brother Tristan and 4 others were released to judicial control.

Romanian police on Wednesday, raided the Tate brothers' home near Bucharest, scoured their large property, and seized 16 luxury vehicles, a motorbike, laptops, thousands of dollars in cash, luxury watches, and data storage drives.

Responding to the judge's decision, the brothers' spokesperson, Mateea Petrescu, said the judge denied prosecutors' request due to the brothers' “exemplary behavior" while previously under preventative arrest measures in a separate case, and that they firmly deny all of the allegations against them and “remain steadfast in proving their innocence.”

Speaking to reporters Thursday after his release, Tate who appeared furious, reveals that 30 of the alleged 34 victims in the new set of allegations, have released testimonies in his favor, saying he didn't do anything wrong. Two of the remaining are mothers of his children who never claimed to be victims and are happily still with him.

"This is a set-up. It is absolutely disgusting. Thirty of those girls say we have done nothing wrong. Two are the mothers of our children, two have never even been here to Romania" Tate told reporters.

The Tate brothers' Emergency Meeting live podcast was also interrupted by a police visit to their home, hours after they were released Thursday.

Legal observers say the prosecution is likely on a politically-motivated witch hunt given that prosecutors have not been able to even start a formal court trial on previous charges in which alleged victims also denied that they're victims and supported Tate in testimonies.

Tate recently criticized Israel's genocidal war against Palestinians in Gaza during a viral X Spaces conversation with social media personalities and entrepreneurs including Dan Bilzerian and Candace Owens.

Tate also said the Matrix( referring to a sinister global cabal ) is controled by Israel and its operatives, and is committed to punishing dissidents opposed to the cabal's authoritarian globalist scheme.

X announced in a post Saturday, that it's closing Brazil office after a notorious Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes threatened the company's legal representative with arrest if the platform refuses to ban certain accounts. “As a result, to protect the safety of our staff, we have made the decision to close our operation in Brazil, effective immediately," the company wrote Saturday on X. "The X service remains available to the people of Brazil.”

In an earlier post, X listed some of the targeted accounts and said they include “a pastor, a current Parliamentarian, and the wife of a former Parliamentarian.”

Moraes who has been sending secret orders pressuring X to block certain accounts on the platform, “threatened our legal representative in Brazil with arrest if we do not comply with his censorship orders” the social media company's global government affairs account wrote on X. "He did so in a secret order, which we share here to expose his actions."

CEO Linda Yaccarino wrote on X: "Incredibly sad day for the people of Brazil." And owner Elon Musk wrote: "The decision to close the 𝕏 office in Brazil was difficult, but, if we had agreed to @alexandre’s (illegal) secret censorship and private information handover demands, there was no way we could explain our actions without being ashamed."

Moraes has been aggressively going after supporters of former popular president Jair Bolsonaro who has also criticized the fascist supreme court justice and called for his impeachment.

Newly released body camera footage of the day of attempted assassination of former president Donald Trump at his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, shows an officer furious at the Secret Service for ignoring earlier suggestions to post a guard on the building used by the assassin.

"I fucking told them they needed to post the guys fucking over here... the Secret Service," he says

SpaceX announced on Aug. 12, the first human spaceflight mission, Fram2, to fly over Earth's polar regions -- the North and South poles. It will be launched by Falcon 9 from Florida, targeting a polar orbit.

Scheduled for late 2024, the mission will be led by Chinese cryptocurrency entrepreneur and adventurer Chun Wang, from Malta, and will include Jannicke Mikkelsen, a polar explorer from Norway, Eric Philips, a roboticist from Australia, and Rabea Rogge, a filmmaker from Germany. The crew will observe Earth’s polar regions from a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft.

Fram2 aims to leverage insights from space physicists and citizen scientists. And the crew will conduct various research activities, including: observing Earth’s polar regions through Dragon’s cupola at an altitude of 425-450 km; studying unusual light emissions resembling auroras; capturing the first human x-ray images in space, and investigating the effects of spaceflight on the human body and behavioral health.

The mission is in honor of the Norwegian ship that made pioneering voyages to the Arctic and Antarctic between 1893 and 1912.

"Fram2 will be commanded by Chun Wang, an entrepreneur and adventurer from Malta," SpaceX wrote in a mission description. "Wang aims to use the mission to highlight the crew's explorational spirit, bring a sense of wonder and curiosity to the larger public, and highlight how technology can help push the boundaries of exploration of Earth and through the mission's research."

The mission is expected to last 3-5 days.

Bulgaria’s parliament on Wednesday, passed an amendment to its education law expanding a ban on LGBTQ “propaganda” in schools. There were 159 lawmakers in favour, 22 against and 12 abstentions.

The new law bans the “propaganda, promotion or incitement in any way, directly or indirectly, in the education system of ideas and views related to non-traditional sexual orientation and/or gender identity other than the biological one.” The amendment was introduced by the country's right-leaning Vazrazhdane party.

Lawmakers also voted on a separate text that defines “non-traditional sexual orientation” as “different from the generally accepted and established notions in the Bulgarian legal tradition of emotional, romantic, sexual or sensual attraction between persons of opposite sexes.”

The EU member nation has also refused to ratify the Istanbul Convention on preventing and combatting violence against women, which many in the country see as a vehicle for recognition of “a third gender.”

While pro-LGBTQ groups condemned the new law, many conservatives around the world praised it as a small victory in the global fight against LGBTQ degeneracy pushed by left-wing leaders and activists.

Countries like Russia, Ghana and Iraq have passed similar laws. Hungary banned LGBTQ “promotion” to minors in a 2021 law.

Amid the riots across the United Kingdom, Prime Minister Keir Starmer has been facing backlash for his blatant tone-deaf remarks to the press in which he failed to acknowledge the legitimate grievances of Britons frustrated with the unchecked influx of third-world migrants into their communities and the rising crime rates. Tesla Chief Elon Musk was among the prime minister's high profile critics.

The war of words with UK government and unhinged left-wing media talking heads started after Musk replied to a video on X of rioters setting off fireworks at police, he wrote "civil war is inevitable."

This triggered many in the UK and drew a response from the prime minister's spokesperson, who said there is "no justification for comments like that" and "anyone who is whipping up violence online will face the full force of the law."

Musk then replied to an X post by Starmer which criticized violence towards muslims. He said the unrest "is not protest, it is pure violence," adding: "We will not tolerate attacks on mosques or on muslim communities." The SpaceX CEO replied: "Shouldn't you be concerned about attacks on *all* communities?"

The UK government has since called on social media companies, including X, to censor speech on their platforms under the guise of combating misinformation and inflammatory content. There are also growing calls among left-wing media talking heads and politicians for X to be shut down or heavily regulated in the country.

However critics point out the growing fascistic tendency among British elites who aggressively push to suppress free expression and curtail individual liberty. A trend, they warn, could lead to either Chinese-style totalitarianism or civil war.

US Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris on Tuesday announced that she has chosen far-left Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate in the 2024 presidential elections. They'll be facing off against former president Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance.

Walz, 60, has been Governor of Minnesota since 2019 and previously served in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Concerns have been raised over Walz vocal and material support for the BLM movement's riots in 2020 which caused significant property damages and fatalities in Minnesota and across the country, following the death of George Floyd.

Critics say Walz and Harris who also raised funds for the rioters, may be embracing a more radical or divisive approach to policing and social justice.

Walz also faces criticisms for his woke extremism on LGBTQ issues. Under Walz’s administration, Minnesota has expanded its Medicaid coverage to include gender-affirming surgeries for transgender children, a policy opposed by overwhelming majority of American voters.

"TIM WALZ WOULD BE THE WORST VP IN HISTORY!" Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Even worse than Dangerously Liberal and Crooked Kamala Harris - HE'S THAT BAD. He'll unleash HELL ON EARTH and open our borders to the worst criminals imaginable. He'll rubber stamp Kamala's GREEN NEW SCAM and light TRILLIONS of dollars on fire."

On his part, Vance said, "The biggest problem with the Tim Walz pick, it's not Tim Walz himself. It's what it says about Kamala Harris, that when given the opportunity she will bend the knee to the most radical elements of her party."

Stocks plunged across the world early this week as recession fears caused turmoil throughout the global markets.

Japanese stocks fell Monday, with the Nikkei 225 index closing lower by more than 12% – 4,451.28 points –- in its worst day since 1987.

A weak jobs report in the US and shrinking manufacturing activity, coupled with dismal forecasts from the big technology firms, pushed the Nasdaq 100 and Nasdaq Composite into a correction last week. On Monday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled 1,033.99 points, or 2.6%, while the Nasdaq Composite and S&P 500 fell 3.43% and 3%, respectively. The Dow and S&P 500 closed out their worst day since September 2022.

Cryptocurrencies also plunged Monday, with the price of bitcoin falling 17.5% to $50,239 a coin on Monday morning. The price of ethereum slid 23% to $2,230 apiece.

Political observers and economists point to inflation in the US caused by President Joe Biden's domestic policies, and his mishandling of the Russia-Ukraine and Israeli-Gaza conflicts.

Other critics point to markets' fears over the potential election of far-left US vice president Kamala Harris who is running against former president Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential elections.

"While Friday’s employment report was disappointing, it wasn’t the only worrisome economic indicator, only the latest," said Greg McBride, Bankrate's chief financial analyst. "Couple economic concerns with the cacophony of earnings disappointments and weak corporate outlooks, global unrest, and currency gyrations, and you have the recipe for sudden volatility."

In a video that resurfaced on social media Monday, US Vice President and Democrat party 2024 presidential nominee Kamala Harris said "everybody needs to be woke," while speaking at the 2017 Recode's annual Code Conference, alongside philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, during the conference.

During the Recode conference which focused on issues such as immigration and the environment, Harris spoke out against the Trump administration's strict immigration polices just moments ahead of her "woke" comment.

"We have to stay woke. Like everybody needs to be woke," Harris said, cackling. "And you can talk about if you're the wokest or woker, but just stay more woke than less woke." She also posted on X: "We have to stay active. We have to stay woke. #codecon."

The term woke colloquially refers to leftists advocating for LGBTQ degeneracy, open borders, abortion-on-demand and anti-white racism. The left in America started using it to virtue-signal to their supporters. However in recent years, conservatives in the west use it derogatively against the left.

The video of Harris' remarks went viral and sparked condemnations and ridicule on social media.

"Kamala is a low-level Communist functionary, and I'm tired of being told we have to pretend she's not," an X user wrote of Harris. Another writes: "Kamala Harris is too radical for the White House."

Harris became the Democrat nominee in what political observers called a coup by billionaire party elite against President Joe Biden who was forced to drop out of the race..

Israeli Military carried military airstrikes against targets in Gaza, Yemen and Lebanon over the weekend. A series of strikes hit the Houthi-controlled port city of Hodeidah in Yemen on Saturday.

The airstrikes targeted “military purposes” at the Hodeidah port, according to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Explosions were reportedly heard throughout the city during the bombardment.

The Israeli military said in a statement on Saturday: "A short while ago, IDF fighter jets struck military targets of the Houthi terrorist regime in the area of the Al Hudaydah [Hodeidah] Port in Yemen in response to the hundreds of attacks carried out against the State of Israel in recent months."

The strikes come a day after the Houthis claimed responsibility for a drone strike near the US embassy in central Tel Aviv, which left one person dead and injured up to 10 others.

In a statement, Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant said that the "fire currently burning in Hodeidah is seen across the Middle East and the significance is clear." He added: "The Houthis attacked us over 200 times. The first time that they harmed an Israeli citizen, we struck them. And we will do this in any place where it may be required."

Earlier on Saturday, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) said it had received reports of two attacks on a vessel 64 nautical miles (118.5 km) northwest of Yemen's Mokha, causing slight damage. The captain reported attacks by an aerial drone, which exploded close to the vessel and by a seaborne drone, which also exploded nearby.

Commenting on the attacks, Houthi spokesman Mohammed Abdulsalam wrote on X that "blatant Israeli aggression" targeted fuel storage facilities and the province's power station. “The Israeli aggression aims to increase the suffering of the people and to pressure Yemen to stop supporting Gaza” he said.

Israel also struck two weapon depots in southern Lebanon, causing a large explosion, in response to Hezbollah’s support for Hamas and the Houthis. The Islamic terrorist group has been firing rockets and flying drones into Northern Israel.

The strikes in Yemen and Lebanon come amid ongoing Israeli airstrikes in Gaza, with reports of tens of thousands of civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure.

Netanyahu arrived in Washington DC Monday, to meet President Joe Biden who is rumored to be incapacitated due to steep cognitive decline and reportedly recovering from Covid. The Israeli prime minister met with vice president Kamala Harris instead.

X on Thursday added a "Request Community Note" feature so users can ask for a context or fact-check on any post on the Elon Musk-owned social media platform.

Once a post receives enough requests, contributors to the popular Community Notes system, will receive alerts asking them to write or rate a note. The note that receives enough votes from contributors that usually disagree, will then be visible below the relevant post to all users on the platform.

Community Notes contributors are users of X and the system is automated. X employees do not interfere, and the Community Notes code is open-sourced.

Critics have praised the novel feature, and called for other platforms to adopt it, as it removes the need for human third-party fact checkers who have in the past been exposed for being biased against conservative users on social media platforms like Facebook and YouTube

Former President and current Republican presidential candidate for the 2024 elections, Donald Trump has named 39-year-old Senator JD Vance of Ohio as his vice presidential running mate on the GOP'S 2024 national ticket.

"After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio." Trump wrote on Truth Social. "J.D. honorably served our Country in the Marine Corps, graduated from Ohio State University in two years, Summa Cum Laude, and is a Yale Law School Graduate, where he was Editor of The Yale Law Journal, and President of the Yale Law Veterans Association. J.D.’s book, 'Hillbilly Elegy,' became a Major Best Seller and Movie, as it championed the hardworking men and women of our Country. J.D. has had a very successful business career in Technology and Finance, and now, during the Campaign, will be strongly focused on the people he fought so brilliantly for, the American Workers and Farmers in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Minnesota, and far beyond…."

Vance, a former venture capitalist before running for elective office, was one of a handful of Republicans considered top running mate contenders. That group also included North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida.

Vance's 'Hillbilly Elegy' which tells his story of growing up in a struggling steel mill city and his roots in Appalachian Kentucky. It became a New York Times bestseller and was made into a Netflix film. The story spotlighted the values of many working-class Americans who became supporters of Trump's policies.

The 39-year-old appeared with Trump on the floor of the convention hall of the Fiserv Forum, where the four-day Republican National Convention kicked off Monday. He shook hands with friends and supporters in the Ohio delegation during the vice presidential nomination roll call.

Trump and Vance will be facing off against President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris in November's elections.

Harris reportedly reached out to Vance "and left a message to congratulate him on his selection, welcome him to the race and express her hope that the two can meet in the vice presidential debate."

In findings announced Friday under the new Digital Services Act(DSA), European Commission(EC) claimed X's blue checkmark verification system do not correspond to industry practice and negatively affect users' ability to make free and informed decisions about the authenticity of the accounts they interact with.

In its press release, the EU said X had also failed to comply with a DSA requirement to provide searchable and reliable information about advertisements in a library for easy access. And X is also blocking researchers from accessing its public data, the Commission claims.

“In our view, X does not comply with the DSA in key transparency areas, by using dark patterns and thus misleading users, by failing to provide an adequate ad repository, and by blocking access to data for researchers," EU competition chief Margrethe Vestager said in a statement on X. "The DSA has transparency at its very core, and we are determined to ensure that all platforms, including X, comply with EU legislation.”

Commissioner Thierry Breton also wrote on X: "Back in the day, #BlueChecks used to mean trustworthy sources of information. Now with X, our preliminary view is that: They deceive users; They infrige #DSA. X has now the right of defence —but if our view is confirmed we will impose fines & require significant changes."

X owner Elon Musk fired back, revealing that the Commission "offered X an illegal secret deal: if we quietly censored speech without telling anyone," they would not seek to issue fines which could total 6% of the company’s annual revenue. "The other platforms accepted that deal. X did not," he writes.

"We look forward to a very public battle in court, so that the people of Europe can know the truth," Musk wrote later on X.

The Commission reportedly wanted X to hire a team of people in the EU that could number in the hundreds to remove 'misinformation' from the platform. X would have no say in these removal decisions.

Musk reportedly rejected EU's demands in keeping with his commitment to transparency and free speech within the bounds of local law.

AT&T has disclosed a massive breach which has compromised records of over 100 million cellular customers’ calls and texts. The breach was caused by an illegal download from a cloud partner, Snowflake, a platform that allows corporate customers to store large amounts of customer data in the cloud for the purpose of analysis.

A hacker stole records of calls and texts from nearly all of the telecom company's wireless customers. TWILIO's 33 Million accounts, two-step verification, APIs and 2FA keys were stolen too. The breach has been traced back to an uncategorized cybercriminal group known only as UNC5537 with possible financial motivations, according to cybersecurity incident response firm Mandiant.

The stolen data isn’t publicly available at this time, according to AT&T. The company is currently working with law enforcement and says that “at least one person has been apprehended.”

The hack occurred mainly from May 1, 2022 to October 31, 2022, and continued in some form up until January 2, 2023. Hackers in April 14-25, 2024, also accessed and copied customer call logs from Snowflake.

The breach included cell site identification numbers, which could potentially allow for the triangulation of users' locations, according to cybersecurity experts. This can paint a detailed picture of an individual's daily life, habits, and associations, making it a valuable asset for those with malicious intent.”

The Snowflake hack impacted more than 160 other companies, including Ticketmaster and QuoteWizard.

Snowflake, for its part, blames AT&T and the others, saying that each organization didn’t use multi-factor authentication to secure their accounts.

AT&T disclosed the hack in a regulatory filing issued before the market opened on Friday, July 12. The company has published a website with information for customers about the breach; and says it learned of the issue on April 19. The latest breach has nothing to do with a previous security incident from March, in which customer data was published on the dark web, according to the company.

England came from behind to defeat the Netherlands 2-1 in the Euro 2024 semi-final in Berlin, thanks to the 90th minute goal from substitute Ollie Watkins.

Xavi Simons scored a stunning strike from range to give the Netherlands an early lead. England got lucky when Harry Kane won a penalty, after Denzel Dumfries attempted to close down his shot, but the England captain stepped up to dispatch the spot-kick.

A cagey second-half followed, one that seemed destined to be followed by another 30 minutes, until Watkins gathered Cole Palmer’s pass and from the tightest of angles fired a brilliant finish into the far corner.

No English men's team has made it to a major final on foreign soil before and now they have the chance to become European champions for the first time, when they face Spain in  July 14’s final, at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.

A far-left coalition, New Popular Front won 172 to 192 seats, in Sunday's general elections beating Marine Le Pen's National Rally which won 143 seats even though they won the largest share of votes.

Left-wing rioters violently protested the National Rally’s strong performance in the first round of voting earlier last week. And the far-left coalition, led by Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s France Unbowed party, made a strategic political maneuver with centrist and center-right parties, to beat Le Pen's party.

More than 200 candidates from three-way races withdrew from the competition to avoid splitting the anti-National Rally vote. This tactical move allowed the left-wing coalition to consolidate its support and ultimately secure a majority.

The election results have thrown French politics into chaos, with no party holding a majority in the National Assembly. President Emmanuel Macron’s centrist coalition has lost one-third of its seats, and Macron himself has been criticized for his disastrous handling of the election campaign and the country in general.

French cities have been besieged for months, by far-left rioters who destroy public and private properties and brawled with police on a weekly basis. After the election, riots broke out Sunday night in Paris, as they clash with about 3000 police officers around the Place de la République, in 'celebration' of their victory.

Political observers across the west raised concerns over the growing distrust in the election process, as a growing number of voters believe it's a rigged system. Many note that corrupt left-wing rule is accelerating the societal decline as woke policies -- open borders, LGBTQ degeneracy and abortion promotion -- cause lawlessness, population decline and chaos in western cities from Paris to Los Angeles, to Brisbane, Australia.

Labor Party won big in Thursday's general election making Keir Starmer the new United Kingdom's prime minister, taking over from Rishi Sunak who resigned Thursday. Latest vote tally shows the left-wing party won 410 seats in the 650-seat House of Commons as compared to the 118 seats for the Conservatives, and 5 to Nigel Farage's new Reform Party.

Sunak who had been prime minister since October 2022, conceded the election about 30 minutes before the Labor Party secured the 326 required seats to win the election and form the new government. "I take responsibility for the loss," he said. "To the many good, hard-working Conservative candidates who lost tonight, despite their tireless efforts, their local records and delivery, and their dedication to their communities. I am sorry."

The Conservatives Party leader had faced criticisms for staying in the race as party loyalists slam their members of parliament for leading the country to anything but conservative direction. Since Margaret Thatcher became the party leader in 1979, Conservatives have controlled the government all but 13 years until now.

Former Prime Minister Liz Truss, whose premiership lasted a mere 49 days, also lost her Norfolk South West seat by a few hundred votes. Many other high-profile Conservative lawmakers also lost their seats, including House of Commons leader Penny Mordaunt.

Starmer met Friday with King Charles III, who approved him to form a new government. "We have to return politics to public service," he said, adding that a position of his new stature "comes with great responsibility."

Starmer, 62, a World Economic Forum globalist and an atheist, is married to a far-left Jewish woman, Victoria, 51. The couple and their two kids attend a liberal synagogue in North London and he had once noted that they observe Shabbat.

Critics have raised concerns over the direction United Kingdom will be heading under Starmer given his support for Israel's genocidal military action against Palestinians; and Vladimir Zelensky's refusal to make peace with Russian and end the war which has killed tens of thousands of young white Ukrainian men, while Jewish Ukrainians flee to Israel.

Political observers also worry that potential leftward and 'woke' shift in British domestic policy may trigger desertions from the military, and hurt the chances of meeting already weak recruitment targets.

Judge Juan Merchan on Tuesday granted Trump's motion to delay sentencing in the New York v. Trump case in which the former president was found guilty last month after an unprecedented trial widely panned as a political witch-hunt by far-left Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

The United States Supreme Court(SCOTUS) in a 6-3 decision on presidential immunity case ruled that a president has substantial immunity from prosecution for official acts committed while in office, but not for unofficial acts. The case stemmed from charges against Trump in a separate, federal case brought by leftwing special counsel Jack Smith.

Trump's attorneys swiftly acted in seeking to apply the new SCOTUS standard to the Manhattan case. Responding Tuesday morning, Bragg said the request to toss the verdict in New York v. Trump was without merit, but did not oppose the request to delay sentencing.

Merchan on Tuesday afternoon delayed the sentencing date to September 18 at 10:00 a.m. 

"The July 11, 2024, sentencing date is therefore vacated," he wrote in a letter to Trump attorneys and New York prosecutors. "The Court’s decision will be rendered off-calendar on September 6, 2024, and the matter is adjourned to September 18, 2024, at 10:00 AM for the imposition of sentence, if such is still necessary, or other proceedings."

According to a blog post published Monday by the streaming giant, YouTube is testing an X-like Community Notes feature that will add contextual 'notes' to videos on the platform. The text-based notes with linked sources, may start appearing under some videos that offer outdated information, misleading information or are parodies, according to the blog post.

X's popular Community Notes feature, rolled out globally in late 2022, adds notes with linked sources, to posts and images that could be misleading or AI-generated. The feature's codebase is also open sourced by the Elon Musk-owned company, freely available to be used by other platforms.

Like X's Community Notes, YouTube's system will allow users to rate notes as "helpful," "somewhat helpful," or "unhelpful." They can also share why they believe a video's note isn't helpful. Notes widely agreed to and rated be helpful will appear under the relevant video.

YouTube shared an example mock-up of a note under a video about "extinct animals." The example note states that one of the animal species mentioned in the video is actually not extinct, and includes a link to a source.

Note creators will consist of "eligible contributors" who the company will reach out to via email or from within the YouTube Studio app. The Google-owned video platform says it will then use "third party evaluators" to review the notes, and eventually allow other YouTube creators to rate each other's notes as well.

Meta's social media apps unlike X, have widely discredited 'woke' fact-checkers who rate and flag content across Instagram, Threads and Facebook.

Massive crowd of Nick Fuentes supporters in Detroit Michigan Saturday, chant 'Christ is King' outside the People’s Convention, the venue of a TPUSA event from which the 25-year-old American right-wing commentator and activist was kicked out Friday, because of his criticisms of Israel's devastating military actions in Gaza against Palestinians.

Former President Donald Trump spoke at the TPUSA event Saturday.

Fuentes' own AFPAC IV event that was due to be held at Russell Industrial Center, was canceled earlier. "AFPAC IV is cancelled," he announced on X. "Yesterday we finished setting up our stage and then the venue called the cops to kick us out 24 hours before the event. It would have been our biggest yet with ~2,000 attendees. Banned from TPUSA, banned from doing AFPAC. This isn’t over."

Speaking to supporters outside the People’s Convention, Fuentes said he's yet uncommitted to pledge full support for Trump in the November presidential elections, until the former president "commits to not go to war with Iran" on behalf on Israel.

Political observers and pro-Israel groups have expressed alarm at the growing anti-Israel sentiment among the most reliable base of support for the Jewish state in the world: American conservatives.

Experts attribute this it to the growing influence of Fuentes' 'Groyper' movement within the American right, especially among young people.

The Groyper or America First movement is focused on domestic and national interests of the United States of America, and is opposed to all Israeli lobby influence on American politicians or foreign policies.

Footage posted by SpaceX on X, shows Super Heavy landing burn and soft splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico, about 8 minutes after Starship liftoff during the fourth integrated flight test(IFT-4) of the company's massive space vehicle on June 6.

SpaceX aims to make the 70 meter-tall first stage(or booster) reusable, just like the company's workhorse, Falcon 9 first stage. "Next flight, we try to catch it with giant Mechzilla arms, inspired, at least in part, inspired by Kong v Godzilla," Elon Musk wrote Saturday, on X. "If they can fake do it in movies, we can do it irl! Logic."

Despite its damaged flap during reentry, Starship's 50 meter-tall upper stage (simply called the Ship by the company) also splashed down in the Indian ocean 6 kilometers off the targeted location, according to Musk. "Booster landing was on target, ship landing was several km off due to flap damage, but both were soft landings," he wrote Saturday, on X.

The Elon Musk company has started sending out email notifications to users announcing that from July 1, government ID verification will be required to earn income on the platform "through Ad Revenue Sharing and Creator Subscriptions programs."

The new requirement is supposedly part of X's effort to protect against impersonation and fraud and improve user support.

"We're making changes to our Creator Subscriptions and Ads Revenue Share programs to further promote authenticity and fight fraud on the platform," the update to X's verification page reads. "Starting today, all new creators must verify their ID to receive payouts. All existing creators must do so by July 1, 2024."

There's one problem. X has apparently contracted Au10tix, an Israeli company known for its identity verification solutions, and founded by Ron Atzomn, a retired member of the Israel Defense Force’s clandestine unit 8200, which provides the Jewish nation with 90% of its electronic intelligence material.

The new requirement has trigged criticisms with many calling it a direct threat to anonymity which has historically been the cornerstone of free speech online. Citizens and activists have been able to criticize their governments, expose corruption and organize without risking their safety and livelihood.

Some critics are even more dismayed by the involvement of Au10tix, given Israeli intel's notoriety in aggressive electronic spying and blackmail operations.

Many users have since expressed their disappointment with Musk who had in recent past expressed support for the importance of anonymity online. The platform owner and Tesla chief has not commented publicly about the new ID requirement.

@AnyaHaas, 33, in a video posted on her social media page, cries as she explains her difficulty in finding a man to marry her.

Apparently single for 7 years, Anya says she's feeling depressed and and hopeless.

Prominent 'manosphere redpill' commentators like Myron Gaines @unplugfitX of the Fresh and Fit podcast, have argued that women like Anya have been brainwashed by far-left feminist propaganda which encourages women to waste their peak years (18 -29 ) "living their best lives."

"Living her best life," they argue, often entails life of promiscuity, chasing after 'bad boys;' and passing up on some good men because she's pursuing her career or thinks she can always find a better suitor, all the while sleeping around with men and racking up her 'body count.'

Men generally prefer younger, modest and submissive women when they're looking for a wife. Men care about a woman's past; and women care about a man's future, Gaines argues on his podcast. And a properly-raised sane man is repulsed by the idea of a promiscuous girl as a wife, he said.

Indeed a poll of men between 20 and 60-year-old, show that most prefer women between 18 and 26-year-old when looking for a partner.

Reacting to Anya's video, Gaines wrote: "One of the most startling things since the explosion of social media is the amount of women that go to TikTok to cry about being single. This is what feminism does to women. Single ladies under 30 take notice."

When you visit the social media platform, you'll be opening x.com and no longer twitter.com, as X Corp. chairman Elon Musk has confirmed the switch to the new url. "All core systems are now on X.com," he wrote Friday on X. The company's official handle @X also confirmed the switch earlier, writing simply "X dot com."

When you open x.com, you'll be greeted with a message at the bottom of the login page that reads, “We are letting you know that we are changing our URL, but your privacy and data protection settings remain the same.”

The URLs started to change back in August of last year, as part of Musk's effort to build an 'everything app' more than just a 142-character microblogging platform. A slew of new feature updates and improvements have been made to the network even with a third of the workforce the old 'woke' Twitter management had.

The Peruvian government has reportedly classified transgender, nonbinary and intersex people as “mentally ill;” to ensure the country’s public health services could “guarantee full coverage of medical attention for mental health” for the trans community, the Peruvian health ministry explained.

The decree will supposedly alter the language in the Essentials Health Insurance Plan to reflect that trans and intersex people have a mental disorder.

Despite the change, trans and other LGBTQ+ people will not be forced to undergo conversion therapies, the health ministry insisted in a statement issued on Friday, the outlet reported.

Many praised Peruvian government action, as simply acknowledging long-established scientific classification of gender dysphoria as mental illness.

According to the American Psychiatric Association, gender dysphoria is characterized by a marked incongruence between one’s experienced or expressed gender and the one they were assigned at birth.

However many far-left LGBTQ+ activist groups across slammed the decision as a major step backward in the fight for their 'rights and safety.'

Disgraced OnlyFans prostitute Ava Louise posted a video of her naked back facing a New York City crowd as she lifts up her top, showing her breasts to the 'portal' -- a futuristic sculpture that forms a 24/7 virtual bridge livestreaming life from across the Atlantic, allowing people to connect despite being thousands of miles apart.

New York City's Portal connecting the city and Ireland's capital Dublin, Ireland, is located in front of the Flatiron Building on Fifth Avenue and Dublin's on O'Connell Street in front of the GPO and the Spire.

"I thought the people of Dublin deserved to see my two New York homegrown potatoes," Louise said, after flashing Dublin, as onlookers behind her film; with one woman telling her boyfriend "it's very unfortunate people are not acting in the best way."

The portal has been temporarily shutdown after Louise's raunchy display.

Many locals on both sides of the portal have been abusing the technology since being activated on May 8. Social media has been flooded with videos of "people flashing their asses and boobs;" and allegedly engaging in illegal substances.

One video on Instagram shows a man on the Dublin side snorting an unknown substance, saying, "what a day, what a city, New York never sleeps."

The usual view of people waving from the historic Irish capital was interrupted, within hours of the portal opening, by a closeup of a man's phone. First it displayed 'RIP Popsmoke,' referring to American hip hop star Bashar Barakah Jackson, who was gunned down in a home invasion on February 19, 2020. (Five men stormed the rapper's house in Los Angeles demanding jewelry and shot him three times with a Beretta M92 when he tried to fight them).

The Irishman then switched the view on his phone to a video of the World Trade Center towers burning and billowing with black smoke during the 9/11 terror attack which rocked the city and the world in 2001.

Another video from the Dublin side of the portal showed a woman being dragged away from the portal by police after grinding against the screen. "Basically she was there for about 20 minutes very drunk and was slapping and grinding against the portal before guards stepped in," the person who filmed it explained.

Bluesky confirmed that Jack Dorsey, who helped start the social media network, is no longer on the board of the company. This comes a day after the Twitter (now X) founder and ex-CEO responded with a terse "no" to an X user who asked if he was still on the Bluesky's board.

Dorsey helped start Bluesky in 2019, a project to develop an open-source social media protocol -- much like Mastodon's ActivityPub -- that he wanted Twitter to adopt. He later joined the company's board of directors when it split from Twitter in 2022.

It's not clear why or when exactly, Dorsey left the company's board. He had closed his Bluesky account last year, and became more active on another social media network Nostr.

In posts confirming Dorsey's departure, the company "sincerely thank Jack for his help funding and initiating the bluesky project;" and announced that it’s searching for a new board member “who shares our commitment to building a social network that puts people in control of their experience.” Two board members remain: CEO, Jay Graeber, and Jabber/XMPP inventor Jeremie Miller.

Dorsey over the weekend, unfollowed all but three accounts on X: @elonmusk @Snowden and @stella_assange. In a post he referred to the platform as “freedom technology.” This comes a day after Elon Musk reinstated the account of "the most censored man in America," 25-year-old Nick Fuentes, to the platform.

"don’t depend on corporations to grant you rights," Dorsey wrote on X. "defend them yourself using freedom technology. (you’re on one)."

“You’re not innocent, but you’re not guilty of what the state has charged you with,” Judge Mark Stoner said earlier this week following a three-day bench trial of Indianapolis mother Dacia Lacey who had confessed that she smothered her 2-month-old daughter, Alona, with couch pillows at her Indiana state home in August 2022.

Lacey was reportedly on methamphetamine at the time and wanted to stop the crying 2-month-old so she could get rest. Months following the incident, she was charged with neglect of a dependent, resulting in death.

Lacey’s other daughter testified during the first day of the trial. “Mom was mad, hit the baby with a pillow and put the pillow on her face,” the 5-year-old said.

Indianapolis Police Detective Jamie Davis also testified, saying that Lacey’s story was initially inconsistent before she finally confessed. Speaking to officials, Lacey blamed her children, saying that they may have accidentally smothered the baby while she was making food.

“Basically, she said that she was high, and she was tired, and Alona had been crying," Davis reportedly told the court. "Ultimately, she ended up picking up Alona and facing her towards the crease in the couch. So, if you have the back of the couch and then the seating area, she placed her face toward the crease.”

Although he decided to grant Lacey a not guilty verdict, Stoner reportedly still believed that she should’ve faced a different charge -- like involuntary manslaughter. He mentioned that there was a lack of physical evidence of neglect and no injuries that pointed to long-term abuse. The baby’s cause of death was considered “undetermined.”

“This is a case that happens when you’re a bad parent," Stoner said. "There are some things you can never do. You can never have sole possession of your children and go out and use drugs.”

Lacey, reportedly in tears, sighed in relief when she heard the judge's not-guilty verdict.

“I do hope that you will take the opportunity to get the counseling that you need, to get the counseling for the children that you need,” Stoner added. “Learn from this behavior and hopefully the rest of the community learns from this behavior.”

Jeremy Williams 40, allegedly paid Kristen Siple, $2500, to rape her 5-year-old, Kamarie Holland, for one hour.

Jurors reportedly started crying during the trial as they watched video of Williams raping the 5-year-old, and police camera footage of officers finding her body.

"...Justice was served, but it still don't take away that Kamarie's gone," the 5-year-old's grieving father Corey Holland said, following the court decision. "But I'm glad he got the death penalty."

Williams who has a gruesome criminal history, was suspected of murdering a 1-year-old boy in Alabama.  He was also previously acquitted of lowering a 3-year-old boy into a bowl of boiling water.

Critics slammed the George Soros-funded lax Justice system in Democrat-run jurisdictions which let repeat offenders like Williams back into the general population. Many are calling on the court to also sentence Siple to death for her heinous "unforgivable crime," as one social media user put it, against her daughter and family.

A surveillance video shows Rickesha Denise Overton follow Alisia DeCoteau downstairs with a gun. Both women who're apparently friends at one point, were arguing earlier that fateful evening, according to witnesses.

The suspect briefly went back inside before coming out to shoot DeCoteau. Overton's gun can be seen in the footage, jamming as she tries to fire more shots.

Police say she also pointed the pistol at horrified neighbors before officers arrived.

“She came into my apartment," Overton initially told officers. "It was self-defense. I had to shoot her.”  The suspect later added, “She’s not even dead. I don’t care if you give me life[ sentence]. I just want to go to Alisia’s funeral.”

Apparently this was not the first time Overton allegedly attacked DeCoteau who is mother to a young daughter, according to the authorities. Cops were reportedly called to the same Ellis Court Apartments building on January 1, at about 2:35 p.m. and the suspect was arrested for assaulting DeCoteau.

“I knew I lost somebody I loved so much,” the victim’s older sister, Jessica Ceja reportedly said. “We’re hurt. She was our youngest sibling. She was only 20 years old. That was my baby sister. I didn’t expect her to ever die this way.”

Overton was charged with Murder in the First Degree and Assault in the Second Degree.  She's in court Thursday for a competency hearing.

45-year-old Erin Ward, a Burke High School substitute teacher, was caught undressed in the backseat of a car, with a 17-year-old boy in a Nebraska neighborhood.

Douglas County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a call regarding a suspicious vehicle parked on a dead-end road where they found undressed Ward and the boy. The teen jumped in the driver’s seat and attempted to flee, before crashing the car which was later determined to belonged to Ward and her husband.

Deputies saw the 17-year-old running from the driver’s seat with no clothes on. He was found over an hour later in a nearby neighborhood wearing only underwear and a T-shirt.

Ward allegedly admitted to having sexual relations with the teen, according to authorities. She was arrested and charged with one count of felony sexual abuse by a school employee; and will not be returning to the school.

Pascal Fouquet captured Falcon Heavy photobombing the moon, when SpaceX launched the United States Space Force X-37B spaceplane on the USSF-52 mission.

Shooting with a Nikon D850, Fouquet said the trick was to expose the camera to capture the details of the moon, not the rocket. He set his shutter speed to just 1/1600 of a second, capturing the split second moment Falcon Heavy passed in front of the moon.

"Scouting for an ideal location proved challenging, given the limited spots available for capturing the shot," Fouquet reportedly said. "Ultimately, I settled on a somewhat unconventional choice—an open field behind a hospice center 13.8 miles away from the launch pad."

Fouquet, a photographer from Orlando, Florida, was chosen as the United States' National Award first place winner for the Sony World Photography Awards 2024. The awards program comes out of a partnership between Sony and the World Photography Organization, and receives hundreds of thousands of photo submissions from across the world.

Ex-convict Sheldon Johnson Jr. 48, was arrested for murder after a severed head of Collin Small 44, were found in a freezer and blue bin inside Small's sixth-floor apartment in the Bronx. The victim was pronounced dead at the scene by medics.

Surveillance footage shows Johnson visiting the apartment multiple times in different outfits; and can be seen showing up with the blue bin.

The victim's neighbors, reported that they could hear him pleading with Johnson before 2 shots rang out. "Please don’t. I have a family!" the victim yelled before he was killed, the neighbors said.

Johnson has been charged with murder, manslaughter, and criminal possession of a weapon.

The 48-year-old is a staffer for public law firm Queens Defenders, and apparently close to discredited far-left District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

Johnson had become an advocate for prison reforms after his release for attempted murder and robbery, spending over 20 years in prison. He previously appeared on Joe Rogan's podcast JRE, during which he spoke about his years in jail and about "changing his life around."
Apparently not changing enough.

As his dispute with OpenAI escalates, X owner Elon Musk is facing another lawsuit filed by several former Twitter(now X) executives on Monday alleging that he illegally tried to avoid paying them severance totaling roughly $128 million.

The executives claim the now X owner “uses his wealth and power to run roughshod over anyone who disagrees with him.” The lawsuit was brought by former Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal, former CFO Ned Segal, and former Twitter lawyers Vijaya Gadde and Sean Edgett.

Musk officially acquired then Twitter in October 2022 for $44 billion, and fired many of the woke executives who had forced him in a Delaware court to go through with the purchase.

The X owner said he fired the executives “for cause,” believing he wouldn’t need to pay huge severance packages.

The past management of then Twitter has been widely criticized for poorly running the social media company which was never profitable, and was more focused on censorship and far-left political activism.

The iPhone maker is reportedly cutting hundreds of employees from the project Titan team and all work on it has stopped. Executives announced in a 12-minute meeting Tuesday, that the company is shutting down its decade-old effort to build electric vehicles.

Chief operating officer Jeff Williams and the vice president in charge of project Titan, Kevin Lynch, reportedly announced the news to the team during the meeting. The decision has reportedly been in the works for a long time.

Project Titan reportedly had around 1,400 employees working on it. Some of them will be moving to Apple’s generative AI projects, while others will have 90 days to find reassignment to other roles inside the company, or be let go.

Apple first started working on “Project Titan” in 2014. But the Cupertino-based company pivoted repeatedly over the last decade, oscillating between an emphasis on making an all-electric Tesla competitor and a fully-autonomous vehicle more akin to what Waymo has created.

Tesla is the dominant player in the EV space. And even with Apple's extensive technology and supply chain expertise, they're unable to pull it off like the Elon Musk-owned company. Top executives and the board were reportedly frustrated and unhappy with Titan's progress and at some points pressured the team to try to bring something to market sooner than later.

The decision by Apple to kill project Titan comes at a time when major automakers are re-evaluating their investments in electric vehicles, and amid increased scrutiny and Tesla dominance.

Responding to the news Tuesday on X, Musk wrote 'saluting face' and 'smoking' emojis. "The natural state of a car company is dead," he added in another post.

While performing at his concert recently in the UK, Nigerian singer Omah Lay looked through the crowd and called up a girl to the stage.

The pair danced while he performed his hit song 'Bend You' amid cheers from concertgoers. Things suddenly turned raunchy as the curtains fell and their silhouettes can be seen passionately kissing, hugging and grinding.

Footage circulating on social media shows the woman's Ghanaian boyfriend looking on while shaking his head.

Another footage shows the dejected boyfriend walking home after the concert. Apparently the girlfriend thought she did nothing wrong, as her friends can be heard telling her otherwise.

The girl has since posted another video saying she bought the tickets to the concert, and had apologized to her boyfriend.

On his part, the boyfriend asked the public for advice in a video he posted on social media. "Please Advice me, I took my Girl to Omah Lay’s Concert and she went On stage completely disregarded my presence and started dancing Seductively with Omah Lay, I am here thinking if I should stick with her or just move on with my life I want you guys to let me know, what do you think I should do?”

Reactions to the videos were swift and harsh on social media. Many said he'd have dropped her the moment she went on that stage and never talk to her again.

Other critics point to the girl's action as another sign of the degenerate celebrity culture pervading the western world.
