He was pressed on the issue by reporters on Air Force One regarding the nuclear test. “They know we have a nuclear submarine, the greatest in the world, right off their shores,” Trump posited in response. “We don’t need to go 8,000 miles. “They are not playing games with us.

Wrecking Ball Politics: Swalwell Calls for Destructive Pledge from Democratic Presidential Candidates
Previously, Swalwell mocked a female senator after she complained about being threatened by leftists. However, even on the Swalwell scale, it is hard to measure the depths of a member who calls for potential presidents to pledge to demolish the Trump ballroom as a litmus test for office. Consider that for a second. According to Swalwell, Democrats will only consider politicians who promise to destroy a $300 million building to appease the lowest common denominator of their party.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has posted a notice on its website saying federal food aid will not go out Nov. 1, raising the stakes for families nationwide as the government shutdown drags on. The new notice comes after the Trump administration said it would not tap roughly $5 billion in contingency funds to keep benefits through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly referred to as SNAP, flowing into November.

In Lebanon, sexual abuse and economic abuse go hand in hand
Sexual exploitation of children in agriculture goes hand in hand with economic, social, and legal exploitation. “Farm laborer” isn’t even a legally recognized job — no contracts, health insurance, or days off. That’s if you’re talking about legal crops and if the laborer is Lebanese. What if the work is illegal, hidden in rural areas, controlled by tribal customs…and powerful figures from major clans? Ftoun recounts her painful story: “The first time I went to the field, I was 7. Within the first week, one of the older boys…tried to touch me in private places….My mother told me to keep quiet: “That’s the foreman’s son. We need to eat. If his father hears you, he’ll kick us out.’”

Scientists in Australia and New Zealand are attempting to use genetic engineering and viruses to make rodents infertile, for “pest control”
Scientists are researching new techniques of pest control. One technique is to use gene drives, which involves genetically modifying rodents to make them infertile. Another technique being researched involves the use of viruses as an immunocontraceptive, which uses the body’s immune system to induce temporary infertility by targeting specific components of the reproductive process…we should ask ourselves: “How long before humans are seen as pests that they believe need to be controlled?

SHS Kristi Noem on Governor Walz, ‘I don’t know how he sleeps at night’
The secretary was speaking in front of four mugshots, which allegedly represented undocumented immigrants accused of various crimes who were deported from Minnesota. U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem targeted Minnesota Democrats during a Minneapolis press conference on Friday. “I don’t know how he sleeps at night,” said Noem, discussing comments made by Governor Tim Walz when he referenced some ICE arrests as ‘Gestapo.’ Noem also went after Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, accusing him of allowing crime to grow. “Under the leadership of Mayor Frey, under the leadership of Governor Walz, more violent crimes are being perpetuated in these communities,” Noem said. The secretary spoke in front of a table full of drugs and guns that she says were all seized in the area since January. Noem said her agency was looking to build partnerships with smaller towns and sheriffs for more detention space for immigrants, highlighting that the state was refusing to cooperate.
“You’ll see dozens of new agents and Federal officers here doing the work to get these criminals and terrorists off of our streets,” Noem said.

An Iranian Volcano Appears to Have Woken Up 700,000 Years After Its Last Eruption
For centuries, the Taftan volcano in southeastern Iran was considered inactive; just another mountain in the desert. But recent evidence shows that something beneath it has started to shift. Taftan looms 3,940 meters above Iran’s Makran subduction zone, a rugged region where the Arabian plate dives beneath the Eurasian continent. This slow-motion collision feeds a chain of volcanoes—Taftan, Bazman, and Kuh-e-Sultan—that are little studied and rarely visited. In 2023, however, reports began to surface on social media. People in the nearby city of Khash, 50 kilometers away, said they could smell sulfur in the air. “Almost every year, following snowfall and rain in the Taftan area, we witness steam escaping from the peak,”

On his recent podcast, The War Room, Steve Bannon called for the creation of a “Christian state of Jerusalem,” arguing that the conventional two-state formula does not suffice in the Levant. “If you’re going to have a two-state solution, you have to have a three-state solution … one of those states has to be the Christian state of Jerusalem,” he said. Bannon framed his proposal as a safeguard for Christian holy sites and heritage: “Why did we not have a Christian state

The Nation Of Israel Stands As An Example — No Nation Exists Outside God’s Sovereign Purview
When it comes to God’s sovereignty, the Enemy continues to sell two great lies—and people continue to buy them. The first is as old as Babel itself (Gen. 11). It is the notion that nations are masters of their own fate. The second is that if the nations try hard enough, they can destroy Israel (Ps. 83:4). However, God’s Word stands against both of these lies.

Russia Has Just Unveiled A New “Super Weapon” Which Has The Potential To Change Everything
For a moment, I would like you to imagine what the perfect cruise missile would look like.  It would have to be so evasive that no missile defense system on Earth could intercept it.  It would also have to possess unlimited range so that it could hit any potential target on the entire planet.  In addition, it would also have to be capable of carrying a nuclear warhead so that it could serve as the ideal nuclear deterrent.  What I have just described may sound like a fantasy, but now it actually exists.

The Democrats have absolutely no intention of giving President Trump what he wants, and President Trump has absolutely no intention of giving the Democrats what they want. We are potentially facing the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, and the first day of next month is when things are going to get very real for tens of millions of Americans.

Notably, President Trump has yet to even nominate an Ambassador to Germany, a diplomatic slight usually reserved for antagonistic countries.

Covid response killed more children than covid, UK Covid Inquiry hears
Earlier this month, Professor Steve Turner, a consultant paediatrician, gave evidence at the UK Covid Inquiry. He testified that paediatricians learnt very early on that covid did not make children sick, the virus “bounced off” even the most severely sick children. “Children who had kidney transplants, whose immune system was suppressed – we were really worried about them. But the virus bounced off them. So, we knew very, very quickly that this virus, for whatever reason, was not doing harm for the vast majority of children in whom we thought it would,” he said.

Governments Keep Letting AI Make Decisions & It’s Already Going Wrong
Governments worldwide are rushing to implement AI systems to save time and money. Invariably, pitches are centred around efficiency increases such as smarter policing, faster queues and cleaner fraud detection. But the reality is much messier. Automated systems have wrongly cut benefits, facial recognition is growing faster than its safeguards, and prediction tools keep recycling biases of the past. This global snapshot outlines the most serious failures in recent years and what to look out for next.
