South Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS) has blocked YouTube users in the country from accessing three channels – including one that purports to be produced by an 11-year-old girl in Pyongyang – after accusing them of participating in a North Korean “psychological warfare” campaign. The three channels were reportedly no longer accessible in South Korea as of Friday afternoon, after the NIS directed the Korea Communications Standards Commission to cut them off. “North Korea has been running such YouTube channels as part of its psychological warfare against South Korea,” an unidentified NIS official told Seoul’s Yonhap News. “It is our job to respond to the North’s…
A political standoff in Washington over the Pentagon’s abortion benefits for service members and their families has threatened to create a void in the leadership of the US Marine Corps for the first time since 1859. The Marines apparently will not have a Senate-confirmed commandant to take the reins when current chief General David Berger completes his four-year term on July 10 because of a protest by Senator Tommy Tuberville, an Alabama Republican, over military abortion benefits. Berger must vacate his position whether a successor has been confirmed or not, Military.com reported on Friday, citing comments by a Marine Corps spokesman. President…
A policy that Gov. Ron DeSantis signed off on earlier this month is putting restrictions on who can and can’t purchase property in Florida. In the first week of May, DeSantis signed Senate Bill 264 and its companion legislation, House Bill 1355 into law. These bills severely limit the purchasing power of officials, investors and immigrants from “foreign countries of concern” like China, in Florida’s real estate market. The bills prevent anyone working within the governments of those countries, mainly China and agents of the Chinese Communist Party, from buying Florida farmland and any property within 10 miles of a critical infrastructure facility, like…
Infowars host Owen Shroyer, who promoted baseless claims of 2020 election fraud on the far-right internet platform, pleaded guilty on Friday to joining the mob of Donald Trump supporters who rioted at the U.S. Capitol. Shroyer, who didn’t enter the Capitol but led rioters in chants near the top of the building’s steps, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of illegally entering a restricted area. The charge carries a maximum sentence of one year behind bars. U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly scheduled a Sept. 12 sentencing hearing for the 33-year-old Shroyer, who has hosted a daily show called “The War Room With Owen…
The “anomaly consistent with an implosion or explosion” was heard by a secret military acoustic detection system the Navy uses to track down enemy submarines, according to officials interviewed by the Wall Street Journal. The sound was picked up just hours after the submersible began its dive Sunday and came from a location within the vicinity of where the submersible was when communications went down between the sub and a vessel on the surface. The Navy began listening for the submersible as soon as it lost its signal five days ago, and shortly thereafter observed the sound. The coinvent release of…
A New Jersey Republican mayor was removed from office by members of his own party last week after he strongly objected to flying an LGBT “pride” flag outside of city hall. Last week in Rochelle Park, New Jersey, the township’s four-person council voted to remove Mayor Perrin Mosca over what was reported to have been a “contentious” meeting on the matter last month.

The mayor strongly objected to flying the LGBT flag outside of the town hall throughout the month of June.…

The U.S. government mounted an “unannounced campaign” across its “military, the CIA, the State Department, the Pentagon and the White House” to undermine former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro and assist the accession of his far-left successor Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in 2023, according to the Financial Times.

President Vladimir Zelensky announced on Thursday that he had signed a law making it illegal to import and distribute Russian and Belarusian publishing products in Ukraine.

The petition reached the 25,000-vote threshold required for it to be formally considered by the head of state. The author of the petition noted that the Ukrainian parliament had already approved the law on…

A Wall Street Journal (WSJ) report on Poland’s alleged role in the Nord Stream gas pipelines blasts last September is “completely untrue,” the Polish National Prosecutor’s Office said in a statement to the country’s daily Rzeczpospolita on Thursday. Citing German investigators, the US media outlet claimed in early June that the EU nation supposedly served as an operational base for the suspects that might be behind the Russian natural gas pipeline sabotage. A Polish source familiar with the investigation told the paper that Berlin allegedly knew very little about some of the suspects and might be following the wrong track entirely. Warsaw…
An Ecuadorian woman has died in hospital just days after she stunned mourners at her wake by knocking from the inside of her coffin after she had been mistakenly declared as deceased by a doctor. Bella Montoya, 76, died last week in the Ecuadorian city of Babahoyo – or so doctors thought – before she made it clear to guests at her wake that reports of her death had been very much premature. Montoya was swiftly removed from what was intended to be her eternal resting place and rushed back to hospital where her condition was upgraded to ‘alive.’ But…
Belarusian exiles in Poland are training for a future armed insurrection in their home nation, The Times has claimed. The militants may also “play a key role” in the Ukraine conflict, according to the British newspaper. The report on Sunday focused on a camp near the Polish city of Poznan operated by Bypol – the “group of former officers from Belarus’ security services” who fled the country following protests in 2020. Similar combat training sessions have been taking place in the NATO nation for months, with the number of recruits “in the hundreds,” Bypol’s leadership claims. The Times described the recruits at the boot camp as…

New York City is considering converting unused office spaces into affordable housing, mayor Eric Adams has said in an interview with RTVI. He confirmed that the city was struggling to deal with the rapid influx of migrants over the past year. “Many people are still working from home post-pandemic and these vacant empty office spaces could be used to address our city’s affordable housing crisis,” Adams explained. According to the mayor, authorities plan to convert almost “90 million square meters of empty real estate” to provide housing for migrants while the city waits for more funds from the White House to address this “national…
Donald Trump’s interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier made headlines, not just for the former president’s penchant for colorful commentary, but also for the potential legal consequences for his responses that may be viewed as admissions in the federal criminal case against him — a fact that many conservatives noted with dismay. Earlier this month, the Department of Justice unsealed a federal indictment stemming from Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation with 37 criminal counts spelling out how Trump retained boxes of documents that “included information regarding defense and weapons capabilities of both the United States and foreign counties; United…
