NASA’s EZIE Mission Captures ‘First Light’

April 22, 2025

NASA’s EZIE (Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer) mission has taken its first measurements.

These “first light” observations show that EZIE is poised to reveal crucial details about Earth’s auroral electrojets --- powerful electric currents that flow through our upper atmosphere where auroras glow in the sky.

This information will help us better understand Earth’s connection to space and mitigate the negative impacts of space weather on society.

With a trio of CubeSats, EZIE launched in mid-March to map the auroral electrojets up close and in detail for the first time.

These intense currents are generated in the northern and southern polar regions of our atmosphere, about 65 miles (105 kilometers) above the ground, when tremendous amounts of energy are transferred into Earth’s upper atmosphere from the solar wind.

The same process can also ignite colorful auroras (northern or southern lights) in our skies.

The EZIE spacecraft are designed to map the strength and direction of these currents by studying emission from oxygen molecules about 10 miles (16 kilometers) below the electrojets.

The oxygen molecules emit microwaves at a frequency of 118 gigahertz.

But in the presence of magnetic fields, such as those created by the electrojets, this emission line divides in a process called Zeeman splitting.

The stronger the magnetic field, the farther apart the 118 GHz line is split. The polarizations, or wave orientations, of the oxygen emission reveal the direction of the magnetic field.

On March 19, one of the three EZIE satellites successfully recorded Zeeman splitting of the 118 GHz oxygen emission line for the first time with its Microwave Electrojet Magnetogram (MEM) instrument.

The observations reveal the strength and direction of the responsible magnetic field --- in this case, Earth’s own magnetic field near the magnetic equator.

“The EZIE team is very excited about these first-light results,” said Sam Yee of the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, the mission’s principal investigator.

“The observations demonstrate that both the spacecraft and the MEM instrument onboard are working as expected.”

The EZIE mission is expected to begin its formal science investigations in about a month, following final checkouts and calibrations.

Wall Street Journal: Trump Should End H-1B Visa Caps Now that Southern Border Is Secure

Neil Munro21 Apr 2025

President Donald Trump has successfully stopped the inflow of economic migrants via the southern border, so he should invite more economic migrants via the nation’s airports, says the Wall Street Journal.

The political “question is whetherMr. Trump can use the political capital from his border victory to achieve a more lasting immigration success,” the newspaper’s pro-migration editors declared. According to WSJ-owner Rupert Murdoch’s editors, Trump’s “opportunity” for “immigration success” should:

include more pathways for legal immigration to address the labor needs of a growing economy. Half of small businesses say one of their largest problems is finding workers.If Mr. Trump wants more fruits and vegetables grown at home, who’s going to pick them?(He didn’t limit temp visas for farm workers, they start with a lie)

… If Mr. Trump wants Silicon Valley to win the AI race, why are H-1B skilled visas capped at a low number and handed out by lottery?

The newspaper’s illegal=bad/legal=good message comes as Trump’s deputies are charting a course back to a lower-migration, high-productivity United States, away from the post-1990 cheap-labor economy that transfers ordinary Americans’ wages into profits for quarterly CEOs and Wall Street investors.

The promise of cheap labor is “a drug that too many American firms got addicted to … [and] cheap labor is a problem precisely because it’s been bad for innovation,” Vice President JD Vance told his audience of investors in March:

Real innovation makes us more productive, but it also, I think, dignifies our workers. It boosts our standard of living. It strengthens our workforce and the relative value of its labor.

Breitbart News has posted many articles about migration’s harmful impact on productivity and innovation --- and also how tight labor markets help pressure companies to invest in wage-boosting automation and productivity.

In the white-collar sector, Breitbart News has shown how visa programs created by Congress and executives --- such as the H-1B, J-1, L-1, CPT, and other visa programs — have imported debilitating Indian-style office politics into a wide range of critical U.S. companies, including Intel, IBM, Twitter, and Boeing. The damage was recently spotlighted by Citibank, which announced it would sharply reduce its reliance on foreign contractors after the contractors cost the company at least $600 million in routine operations and regulatory incompetence.The decision means Citibank will begin hiring at least 10,000 American technology professionals for jobs held by supposedly cheaper Indian visa workers.

The economic damage of migration has been noted by some business leaders who face competing temptations to either raise short-term profit via migration or raise long-term productivity and innovation via investment in American employees.

“I can argue, in the developed countries, the big winners are the countries that have shrinking populations,” BlackRock founder Larry Fink said at a 2024 pro-globalist event hosted by the World Economic Forum in Saudi Arabia. He continued:

That’s something that most people never talked about. We always used to think [a] shrinking population is a cause for negative [economic] growth. But in my conversations with the leadership of these large, developed countries [such as China, and Japan] that have xenophobic anti-immigration policies, they don’t allow anybody to come in --- [so they have] shrinking demographics — these countries will rapidly develop robotics and AI and technology …

“If a promise of all that transforms productivity, whichmost of us think it will [emphasis added] --- we’ll be able to elevate the standard of living in countries, the standard of living for individuals, even with shrinking populations,” Finksaid. (Fuck Finkand WSJ mouthpiece of Murdochs!)

L.A. Mayor Karen Bass Cuts 400 Police Department Jobs in ‘State of the City’

Joel B. Pollak22 Apr 2025

LOS ANGELES, California --- Mayor Karen Bass tried to strike an upbeat tone as she delivered the bad news Monday in her “State of the City” speech, cutting 400 civilian jobs in the L.A. Police Department next year.

The Los Angeles Times reported:

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass released a proposed budget on Monday that would eliminate a nearly $1 billion financial gapby cutting more than 2,700 city positions --- about 1,650 of them through layoffs.

…

The $14 billion spending plan, which covers the 2025-26 fiscal year, would provide funding for scores of new hires at the fire department, three months after the Palisades fire destroyed thousands of homes and killed 12 people.

…

At the Los AngelesPolice Department, more than 400 workers would be targeted for layoffs, all of them civilians, according to figures prepared by city budget officials. The number of police officers would continue on its gradual downward trajectory, with new hires failing to keep pace with attrition.

Bass also claimed that the process of recovery and building after the Palisades Fire was the fastest in the history of the state:(liar)

Today, in reporting on the State of our City, I report to Los Angeles that the recovery in the Palisades is on track to be the fastest in California history. We’re not just moving fast to move fast. We know that the faster we can rebuild, the faster we can heal. We still have a long way to go, and for those who have lost a home, each and every day is a day too long. We want to be fast, we want to be safe and we want to be resilient.

We have issued permits to rebuild twice as fast as after the Camp and Woolsey fires, we restored water nearly a year and a half faster than after the Camp Fire, and we restored power in just two months. Los Angeles, I assure you, rebuilding is underway.

Many residents, frustrated by delays in debris removal, building permits, and insurance company payouts, would disagree.

Bass said the city would start using AI technology to speed up the process of approving building permits, and called on the City Council “to pass an ordinance to waive all plan check and permit fees so that Angelenos can get home.”

However, skeptical residents are running out of time. And many refuse to forget that she was out of the country when the fires broke out in January, breaking a campaign promise to refuse international travel.

ESA welcomes inauguration of the African Space Agency

22/04/2025

The European Space Agency has joined the world space community in congratulating the African Space Agency on its official inauguration.

The African Space Agency (AfSA) is the second regional space agency after ESA and has been in development since 2015, with the African Union Commission adopting an African space policy and strategy in 2016.

The African Space Agency brings together the 55 member countries of the African Union to coordinate and implement Africa's space ambitions.

Its headquarters are in Egypt, which launched Africa's first satellite in 1998. Since then, 18 African countries have launched a further 63 satellites and many African nations have implemented their own space programmes to the benefit of their people.

AfSA has the goal of harnessing space science and technology for Africa's socio-economic development, promoting collaborative research and the peaceful exploration of outer space.

The inauguration of AfSA came just prior to the start of this week's NewSpace Africa conference, which brings together space agencies and space companies from around the world to discuss how space innovation can help empower Africa's economy.

ESA Director General Josef Aschbacher offered ESA's congratulations on the inauguration of the agency saying: “The establishment of the African Space Agency is a real milestone for the continent and signals an important advance for Africa’s space strategy.

Space has the power to spur innovation and inspiration, and I look forward to working together for the benefit of citizens on both continents.”

Speaking at the inauguration in Cairo, ESA Director of Internal Services Marco Ferrazzani said: "ESA is proud to partnering with this new regional space agency.

Collaboration with Africa dates back three decades and today ESA even runs a dedicated EOAFRICA Initiative. With AfSA, this cooperation will be brought up to the next level.”

ESA formally signed a Memorandum of Understanding with AfSA that will underpin the implementation of the EU-Africa Space Partnership Programme by the EU, which is designed to strengthen ties between Europe and Africa and encourage the use of space technologies by both public and commercial operators.

Since Africa is disproportionately affected by climate change, there is a particular goal to improve early warning systems for severe weather events or hardships related to climate.

In an additional project co-financed by the European Union, ESA already works with the African space sector on the implementation of a satellite-based augmentation system for air traffic control systems, that enhances the security of air traffic.

Furthermore, ESA is ready to collaborate on further bilateral activities with AfSA.

FCC grants AT&T, AST SpaceMobile permission to trial space broadband network

April 22, 2025

AT&T and AST SpaceMobile have been given the go-ahead from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to carry out direct-to-device (D2D) connectivity trials with emergency services later this year.

In an announcement this week, AT&T said it will work with AST SpaceMobile to begin testing direct-to-cellular satellite connectivity on public safety’s Band 14 spectrum for FirstNet, AT&T's first responder network.

FirstNet operates a network for first responders that is supported by AT&T.

The first responder network already uses satellite technology for its deployable assets, such as SatCOLTs --- satellite cell on light trucks, which are vehicles equipped with mobile cell sites that connect via satellite when networks go down during natural disasters.

AT&T will test direct-to-cellular connectivity via AST's BlueBird satellites orbiting Earth. AST's BlueBird satellites launched in September.

It comes just a couple of months after AT&T carried out direct-to-device (D2D) video calls with AST SpaceMobile.

“Satellite connectivity on FirstNet is being built with public safety’s unique needs in mind,” said Matt Walsh, AVP -- FirstNet and NextGen 9-1-1 Products, AT&T.

“First responders need more than the minimum, and we are excited to continue building out our comprehensive network to serve the public safety community.”

Founded in 2017, AST's first test satellite, Bluewalker 1, was launched in 2019; Bluewalker 2 was canceled. Its latest test satellite, Bluewalker 3, launched in 2022.

AST was planning a constellation of almost 170 satellites; the first 20 were originally due to enter operation by 2023, with another 90 deployed through 2024. According to more recent press releases, it seems to have revised its constellation plans down to 100.

Verizon and AT&T, along with Vodafone, are all investors in AST SpaceMobile, rivaling Elon Musk's SpaceX Starlink.

"Alongside integration efforts with partner networks, we are installing five gateways in the United States, and we are now accelerating our path to commercial activity, starting with testing service with off-the-shelf cellular handsets on AT&T and Verizon networks," said Chris Ivory, chief commercial officer of AST SpaceMobile.

During the recent direct-to-device video calls, AST received special temporary authority from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to test its satellite broadband network in the US.

The company also carried out separate calls with Verizon. To carry out the trial video calls, AST used AT&T and Verizon's 850MHz spectrum, which is compatible with standard smartphones.

Scientists left baffled after discovering lone black hole floating through space

Updated 16:31 22 Apr 2025 GMT+1

Scientists have been left stunned after stumbling across a lone black hole drifting through space.

It's not every day astronomers come across an isolated black mass roaming the Milky Way. In fact, it's a 'one in a million' chance, despite being seven times larger than Earth's sun.

The 'Galactic bulge' is also usually completely invisible to both eye and lens, since black holes absorb any light that falls over them.

Black holes are the compact remains of exploded stars which are so dense that its gravity stops anything, even light, from escaping its singularity.

The late cosmologist Stephen Hawking had a better explanation for how black holes essentially suck the life out of anything that comes in its path, writing in his novel that they cause 'spaghettification'.

The British professor explained how anything that gets too close to a black hole is distorted into a long, thin shape as a result of its gravitational pull.

Anyway, for decades astronomers have only been able to guestimate where they are based on the way gravity stretches spacetime and bends the light from distant stars.

Yet for the first time in history, scientists believe they have spotted a black hole based on deflections of a source star, though no star orbits it.

According to the group of researchers from the American Astronomical Society who published their findings in The Astrophysical Journal, a lonely black hole was seen from a Hubble Space Telescope (HST) as early as 2011.

Over the course of a six-year period, the team monitored the segment of sky to watch stars were being abnormally moved from their positions, hinting at a hidden object causing havoc under a cloak of invisibility.

The researchers say the mysterious void is around 5,000 light years from our home planet in the constellation of Sagittarius, reports Science News, and is actually much closer to us than the other ginormous one in the Milky Way's center at around 27,000 light years away.

Kailash Sahu, an astronomer at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, said it's 'the only one so far.'

The news comes as Sahu and his colleagues discovered the looming mass coursing through the constellation in 2022 but a second team refuted the claim, saying the body could've been a neutron star.

Speaking at the time, researcher Dr Martin Dominik of the University of St Andrews, said: "Einstein did it again - black holes make themselves invisible, but they cannot hide their gravity," as per The Daily Mail.

Now, the new observations from the HST confirm that the mass is so large that is must be a black hole.

While singular black holes are probably frequent, with theoretical estimates suggesting there could be up to 100 million black holes hidden among the hundreds of billions of stars in the Milky Way, they are difficult to find.

This is largely because it's rare for them to line up with a large star, which reveals their presence.

But in this case, the hole in Sagittarius became exposed when it passed in front of a dim star, magnifying its brightness and slowly shifting its position as a consequence of the black hole's gravity.

“It takes a long time to do the observations,” Sahu added. “Everything is improved if you have a longer baseline and more observations.”

The scientist hopes to find even more black holes with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope which is scheduled to launch in 2027.

Militant group's claims of responsibility for attack in Pahalgam not yet verified

The attack, which took place in an off-the-road meadow, involved two or three militants, the Indian Express newspaper reported, citing an unidentified senior police officer.

A little-known militant group called the Kashmir Resistance claimed responsibility for the attack in a social media message. It expressed discontent that more than 85,000 "outsiders" had been settled in the region, spurring a "demographic change."

The regional government of Jammu and Kashmir, where Pahalgam is located, told its legislature this month that nearly 84,000 non-locals from within India had been given domicile rights in the territory in the last two years.

Aplanned joint space observatory between China and the Latin American global astronomical hub of Chile was not permitted under Chilean law, the Chilean government has said, in comments that highlighted deepening regional geopolitical tensions over security and technology.

The project between a Chinese state astronomical institute and a private Chilean university in Chile's Atacama desert, aiming to track space objects over the southern skies, drew concerns and warnings from the U.S. that it would also be used to track satellites, thus aiding China's military space awareness in a region that the U.S. considers vital to homeland defense, as Newsweek reported last December.

Chinese astronomers involved in the project had said that the facility at Cerro Ventarrones would be civilian in nature.

Last week, the Chinese Embassy in Santiago, Chile's capital, said that it was similar to others undertaken by other countries in Chile including by the United States, and accused the U.S. of an "escalation of interference."

While Chile's Foreign Ministry stopped short of saying the Ventarrones Astronomical Park was or would be canceled, it noted that the project had not been legal since the local cooperation partner was a private institution.

"If this initiative is focused on astronomical observation, it should be noted that, according to current regulations, private entities are not permitted to enter into international agreements on this matter," Verónica Arqueros Sáez, a spokesperson for Chile's Foreign Ministry said in an email to Newsweek on Friday.

"There are two possible courses of action: one is through a state-to-state negotiation and agreement, and the other is to channel the initiative through the University of Chile, since, by law and as a public university, it is authorized to enter into such agreements," she said.

"Additionally, the project was being developed on public land, under the terms of a concession granted by the Ministry of National Assets.

Therefore, it is essential to assess whether the project meets the conditions established for granting the concession," Arqueros Sáez said.

Last month, the Chilean Foreign Ministry announced that the project was "under review," after the Newsweek investigation revealed that part of the 10-square-mile complex would be off-bounds to Chileans, and that it was not clear exactly what the Chinese side planned to do at the site, which was being built by a Chinese state-owned company that was also involved in construction projects for the Chinese military elsewhere.

The park was announced as a joint initiative between the Universidad Católica del Norte (UCN) and China's National Astronomic Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC).

China has made no secret of the link between its space interests and political and security goals, saying it will create "effective governance in space."

The Sitian Project, a Chinese state science plan seen by Newsweek, had identified the future Ventarrones Observatory as one of five overseas nodes in a global surveillance system to "fully scan" the skies of the entire Southern and Northern Hemispheres every half an hour to "meet national strategic needs."

Chile is one of the most coveted locations for space observation on Earth thanks to its clear skies, dry conditions and high altitudes.

The United States, European countries, and Japan also have facilities there. Up to 70 percent of the world's large telescopes are in Chile.

Chilean media Ex-Ante declared the project over: "The closure of the project is interpreted as a response to the signals that the United States has been sending for some time regarding China's technological advance in Latin American countries," the news site said, before suggesting that Chile needed a "national space strategy that considers both the scientific value of these facilities and their possible geopolitical and security implications."

The Universidad Católica del Norte did not immediately respond to Newsweek's written request for comment.

Europe’s mini food lab launches into space to grow steaks, potatoes from single cells

Updated: Apr 22, 2025 08:53 AM EST

To reduce the cost of feeding astronauts in space, the European Space Agency (ESA) just launched a lab into space in a significant first step in manufacturing food in space, a new frontier.

Feeding an astronaut can cost close to 27,000 US dollars a day. To tackle that hefty price tag and explore a new venture in space, the ESA wants to put a food production plant on the International Space Station (ISS) in two years.

The project’s primary motivation is cost-driven, but the initiative could clear a fundamental roadblock that’s inhibiting humans from becoming a multi-planetary species: space food.

Researchers at the Imperial College in London and Bedford-based company Frontier Space are at the forefront of an emerging science.

Lab-grown chicken has already arrived on supermarket shelves in the US and Singapore. Proponents of growing food in a lab argue that its true value lies in its ability to provide a sustainable and eco-friendly food source.

A bioreactor can make any kind of food

Dr. Aqeel Shamsul, CEO and founder of Bedford-based Frontier Space, told the BBC that science can now produce food and drink from “pure energy.”

“It is no longer the stuff of science fiction.” Using a bioreactor at Imperial College’s Bezos Centre for Sustainable Proteins, they genetically engineer food like fermenting beer, known as “precision fermentation.”

They add a gene to yeast that produces “extra vitamins,” but they can use this method to manufacture everything in food, such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, and whole meals.

The system might work on Earth, but it’s uncertain whether it will function properly in the challenging conditions of space.

The team sent a sample of the special yeast that might be the dawn of a new agriculture in a smaller version of the bioreactor to assess how to make a dream a reality.

Can a bioreactor make a medium-rare steak in space?

Once released by the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, a small cube satellite holding a mini-lab will orbit the Earth in Europe’s first commercial returnable spacecraft, Phoenix.

Three hours later, it will fall back to Earth off the coast of Portugal. A recovery vessel will whisk the sample back to London, where food scientists will assess how to build a bioreactor that will enable them to grow food in space as early as next year.

However, the bioreactor-made products look like “brick-colored goo,” as per the BBC, so Imperial College wants to solve that problem.

Astronauts already find space food challenging on the ISS. Cooking in space involves injecting a pouch with hot water, as the food is freeze-dried or irradiated.

Imperial College’s master chef, Jakub Radzikowski, can make starches and proteins from fungi.

He told the BBC that they could “any kind of cuisine in space,” though the project awaits approval. But the possibility of producing nutrient-rich complex foods in space is quickly becoming a reality.

“The dream,” Dr. Aqeel Shamsul said, “is to have factories in orbit and on the Moon.” The BBC concludes that the bioreactor would be the first step in creating the necessary infrastructure to allow habitation in space.

The 31 Evidence-Backed Health Benefits of Diatomaceous Earth

Diatomaceous earth (DE) is a naturally occurring sedimentary rock with a granular structure that is rich in silica. Because this material is soft enough to break down into powder, it can be easily ingested or used topically for a number of health benefits. Food grade diatomaceous earth consists of the fossilised remains of diatoms, a major group of micro-organisms that are found in vast oceans and waterways around the world. These diatoms are millions of years old and feature a number of important trace minerals, making them a powerful tool that we can use to enhance our health and well-being. Below we discuss what food grade diatomaceous earth is and the evidence-backed diatomaceous earth benefits.

Here are the recommended tips to subscribe to for safe use of diatomaceous earth as a detoxification agent and to protect bones and joints (but always consult with your healthcare provider before starting a new supplement routine):

- - -

How to take DE:

Take about one teaspoon of food-grade diatomaceous earth with liquid once a day. It’s best used on an empty stomach at least one hour before or two hours after eating.

Drink an additional cup after each dose of diatomaceous earth to improve its effects. In general, make sure to consume plenty of water with diatomaceous earth and stay hydrated.

Increase your dosage slowly over several weeks, working your way up from one teaspoon to two teaspoons daily, or one tablespoon max. Split the dosage into two parts taken in the morning and one at night.

Take diatomaceous earth 10 days on and 10 days off for 90 days to effectively and safely detox. Another strategy is to take it daily for a few weeks at a time as you track symptoms, stopping and starting again throughout the year. It’s safest when you give your body breaks and don’t use it continuously for very long periods of time.

As a note of caution, initially you might notice some mild side effects that can develop as your gut environment changes, yeast dies off and your body releases stored toxins. This can include mild headaches, fatigue and flu-like symptoms, which should diminish within a couple weeks.

Foreign intel job scams target current, former DoD employees

April 21, 2025

When a social media message pops up offering a high-paying consulting job from an unknown recruiter, it’s easy to be intrigued.

But before you accept this too-good-to-be-true offer, think twice.

For many current and former members of the Department of the Air Force, and increasingly, across the entire U.S. government workforce, this is the first step in a recruitment scheme by foreign intelligence entities, officials warn.

“Our adversaries are exploiting personal freedoms and online platforms to target our people,” said a counterintelligence analyst assigned to the Air Force Office of Special Investigations Center.

“These aren’t random messages. They’re calculated attempts to exploit trust.”

The analyst could not be named for operational reasons. However, their concern was echoed at the highest levels of the agency.

“These aren’t just job offers, they’re intelligence operations in disguise,” said Special Agent Lee Russ, AFOSI Office of Special Projects executive director. “Our adversaries are targeting the very people who’ve kept this nation secure.”

According to an April 2025 memo from the National Counterintelligence and Security Center, hostile foreign intelligence entities have targeted U.S. government personnel by posing as consulting firms, headhunters and think tanks.

“This isn’t a new tactic, it’s just become more aggressive and more refined,” the analyst said. “Adversaries have figured out how to blend into legitimate spaces online.”

According to the NCSC release, which operates under the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, these schemes are part of a broader campaign to collect sensitive information from individuals with U.S. government backgrounds, often under the guise of employment opportunities.

“Recruiters often appear friendly and credible, offering flattery and emphasizing your government experience,” Russ said. “They may pose as representatives of legitimate, even allied-nation companies, making their approach seem trustworthy.”

These outreach efforts often begin with what appears to be a professional opportunity, like a message from a recruiter or a inquiry that aligns with the target’s background, the analyst said.

That sense of normalcy is what lowers defenses and allows the interaction to progress unnoticed.

“The sophistication is what makes it dangerous,” the analyst said. “Adversaries are using professional norms and targeting people who’ve let their guard down because the interaction seems normal.”

These increasingly advanced attempts often appear via social media, email, or job platforms, making them difficult to detect.

“Foreign actors reach out to service members privately, which means there’s no institutional oversight,” the analyst added.

“What someone does on their personal account doesn’t necessarily have the same safeguards as an official one, and adversaries are taking advantage of that.”

Over time, those conversations can shift subtly from general networking to probing questions. Then, what started as a casual dialogue quietly shifts into something more serious.

“These schemes have evolved into long-term social engineering campaigns designed to appear professional and legitimate,” Russ said.

What makes these campaigns particularly effective, officials say, is how gradually they unfold.

UPDATE: Russia -v- Ukraine, Delegations Expected to Meet in London Tomorrow, Then Witkoff Heads to Moscow

April 22, 2025 | Sundance |

Interesting series of events converging. According to multiple media outlets, a delegation from the U.S, Europe and Ukraine are scheduled to meet again in London tomorrow for further discussions of the peace proposal.

President Trump said Monday they had “very good meetings” about Ukraine and Russia recently as Trump was likely debriefedfrom the meeting that Secretary Rubio and Envoy Steve Witkoff held in Paris, France with Emmanuel Macron, Ukraine, EU and U.K officials.

However, this was the same Paris meeting that preceded Secretary Rubio saying if progress was not made quickly, the USA would exit their role in negotiating a peace deal==.

President Trump and Secretary Rubio areputting pressure on Ukraine, EU, U.K as well as the CIA background playersto get to a place of earnest peace discussion, by threatening to pull back from their effort and likely allowing Russian President Putin a lot of implied latitude to increase hostile action.

The belligerent Ukraine officials (harsh Nazi tones on display) feel emboldened to keep fighting with enhanced funding and support from the EU, U.K, NATO and CIA operativesembedded with Ukraine forces. As an ancillary matter, the potential for Trump to pull back standsas a visible motive for the USA Deep State to keep attacking Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

At a certain point President Trump is going to have to make a decision on further support.If Trump exits the proxy war, that’s when the real internal battle with the CIA will likely surface.This is a very interesting dynamic to keep watching asCIA Director John Ratcliffe appears to be a bystander, incapable of stopping the independent elements of the CIA from operating their own agenda.

According to the Moscow Times, “Putin aide Yuri Ushakov told Russian media on Tuesday that Witkoff will visit Russia later this week, though he did not specify what day he would arrive, nor did he say whether the Trump envoy would meet with Putin.” If Witkoff is in London on Wednesday, that would put him traveling to Russia Thursday or Friday.

Again, a simple reminder. It appears Steve Witkoff is the traveling ears and voice of President Trump back and forth to Moscow, which -as we identified for quite a while- is the best way to handle the discussions. Normal diplomatic lines ofcontact between President Trump and Vladimir Putinwould be risky given the oppositional nature of the U.S. Intelligence Community. The emissary/envoy approach removes the IC influence and control agents from the issue.

On the ‘ceasefire’ table is still the subject of European countries being the peacekeepers on the demilitarized zone between Ukraine and Russian forces. France and the U.K want assurances that U.S. troops would protect the “coalition of the willing” if the EU puts peacekeeping boots on the ground in Ukraine.

There is a lot of contradictory narrative engineeringvery visible in western media about the ongoing dynamic [SEE HERE] and [SEE HERE]. I would estimate that well over half the information inside those articles is fabricated,intelligence-manipulated information control; ie. totally fake news.

Rubio (?) and Witkoff will be in London tomorrow. From there, Witkoff will likely return to Moscow to debrief Putin on the talks and enhance with President Trump’s advice on status. Then President Trump and President Zelenskyy will cross paths again on Saturday at the funeral of Pope Francis in Rome.

As an ancillary note,it does seem a little obvious that Nat Sec Advisor Mike Waltz has been completely removed from the negotiating team, instead being dispatched to the job of just cleaning up and reformatting the National Security Council.

We keep watching…..

Zelensky refuses to recognize Russia’s Crimea

The Crimean peninsula officially joined the Russian Federation after an overwhelmingly positive vote in 2014

Kiev will not discuss recognizing Crimea as Russian territory, Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky told journalists on Tuesday, according to Ukrainian outlet Suspilne.

The US will propose officially accepting the peninsula as part of the Russian Federation at a meeting with Kiev and its European backers on Wednesday, as part of a broader peace deal to stop the conflict, the Washington Post wrote on Tuesday citing anonymous sources.

“[Crimea] is our territory, the territory of the people of Ukraine. We have nothing to talk about on this topic -- it is outside our Constitution,”Zelensky said.

The Ukrainian leader claimed that discussing the issue of sovereignty over Crimea could only lead to additional fighting.

“As soon as we start talking about Crimea, about our sovereign territories, we enter the format of prolonging the war,” he said, adding that this is “what Russia wants.”

Last week, Zelensky lashed out over the subject in a press conference, saying that US special envoy Steve Witkoff had no authority to discuss such issues with Russia.

The US proposal on Crimea was already presented to Ukraine in Paris last week, and includes eventual sanctions relief for Moscow in exchange for a peace deal, the Post reported on Tuesday, citing sources familiar with the deliberations.

Ukrainian officials interpreted the plan as Washington’s final offer before the US washes its hands of peace efforts, the newspaper wrote, citing anonymous sources.

US President Donald Trump is expected to present Washington’s “final offer” on a full ceasefire dealas early as next week, the New York Post wrote on Saturday, citing a senior administration official. (This aligns with Sundance article)

In 2014, the predominantly ethnically Russian population of Crimea voted to join Russia following a Western-backed armed coup in Kiev. Both Ukraine and its Western supporters continue to claim that the referendum was illegitimate.

https://www.rt.com/russia/616120-ukraine-crimea-recognition-zelensky/

It’s pretty clear Kiev, Zelensky, CIA and others there, have no intention of a peace deal, or negotiating, based on this, Trump Team withdraws, and takes all the weapons with them, including the funding of the government and just about everything in Ukraine, and lets Russia go for it. That’s the end of Ukraine and the fake leaders there.

Yemeni army downs US drone, strikes carrier with missiles

Apr 22, 2025, 11:08 PM

Brigadier General Yahya Saree said in a statement on Tuesday night that the Yemeni armed forces carried out a military operation, targeting USS Harry Truman in northern Red Sea with missiles and drones.

"Yemeni armed forces also targeted the US aircraft carrier Vinson in the Arabian Sea, using 3 cruise missiles and 4 drones," he said.

"Yemeni armed forces also downed another US MQ-9 Reaper drone while it was conducting hostile operations over the coastal airspace of Hajjah province," Saree said.

Yemenis have been hitting Israeli and American targets in support of Palestinians in Gaza since the regime launched its devastating war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, and in response to the American-British aggression on their homeland.

The operations have effectively shut down the Eilat port south of the occupied territories, causing significant economic setbacks for the Israelis.

The Yemeni Armed Forces have said they will not stop their attacks until Israel’s ground and aerial offensives in Gaza end.

Ukrainian drone strike hits major Russian military arsenal near Moscow

April 22, 2025, 18:02

Ukraine targeted a key Russian military arsenal near Moscow, setting off massive explosions and prompting evacuations.

On April 22, 2025, Ukrainian forces executed a long-range drone strike targeting the 51st Arsenal of Russia’s Main Missile and Artillery Directorate (GRAU), situated approximately 70 kilometers (43 miles) northeast of Moscow, near Kirzhach in the Vladimir Oblast, approximately 530 kilometers (330 miles) from the Ukrainian border.

The strike triggered a chain of powerful secondary explosions and a massive fire at the facility, according to Russian Telegram channels and local sources.

In response, authorities closed the main road connecting Moscow to Kirzhach and initiated the evacuation of nearby villages as a precautionary measure.

“An explosion occurred in the Kirzhach district. Responsible services are working at the scene,” the Kirzhach district administration reported on Telegram. “The evacuation of the villages of Barsovo and Mirny, Kirzhach district, is underway.”

The 51st GRAU Arsenal, spanning 502 hectares, is a strategic site within Russia’s military infrastructure, responsible for the storage and management of various missile and artillery systems.

Ukrainian strike capabilities expand

The attack highlights Ukraine’s growing capacity to conduct long-range strikes deep within Russian territory, targeting logistical and strategic military assets.

The use of drones for such operations allows the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) to bypass heavily defended areas and disrupt critical supply and storage nodes far from the front lines.

Although it has not been confirmed what specific weapon was used in this strike, the target lies within the operational range of the Palianytsia turbojet drone missile system.

Developed domestically during the Russian invasion of Ukraine and unveiled in the summer of 2024, Palianytsia is designed for precision long-range attacks on targets deep within enemy territory.

This is not the first time Ukraine has struck a facility of the GRAU using such drones.

On the night of September 17 to 18, 2024, Ukrainian forces launched a drone attack on the 107th Arsenal ammunition depot in Toropets, 500 kilometers (310 miles) from Ukrainian soil.

BREAKING: Gorsuch and Roberts Side with Liberal Justices --- Illegal Alien Can Ignore Deportation Deadline If It Falls on a Weekend or Holiday

In yet another blow to immigration law enforcement, the Supreme Court today ruled 5--4 in Monsalvo Velázquez v. Bondi that illegal aliens granted voluntary departure under federal immigration law can remain in the United States past their court-ordered departure deadline---if that deadline happens to fall on a weekend or legal holiday.

Justice Neil Gorsuch authored the majority opinion, joined by Justices Roberts, Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson, effectively rewriting the meaning of a “60-day” voluntary departure period to accommodate the convenience of deportable individuals, not the rule of law.

At the center of the case was Hugo Monsalvo Velázquez, a Mexican national who entered the U.S. illegally nearly two decades ago and was ordered to leave within 60 days.

His departure deadline fell on a Saturday, but instead of leaving, he filed a motion to reopen his case on the following Monday.

Both the Board of Immigration Appeals and the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that he had missed his deadline. But the Supreme Court has now overruled them, injecting ambiguity into what was once a firm immigration deadline.

In a strong dissent, Justice Clarence Thomas---joined by Justices Alito, Kavanaugh, and Barrett—blasted the majority for stretching the law beyond its clear terms, arguing that ’60 days means 60 days,’ not whenever the alien gets around to it.

“The merits question in this case---whether petitioner left the United States within “60 days” after October 12, 2021— is straightforward,” Alito wrote in his opinion.

The 60th ‘day’ after October 12, 2021, was Saturday, December 11, 2021. And petitioner failed to depart the country by that Saturday. … There is no justification for [a 2-day extension],”

He continued, “The 60th “day” after October 12, 2021, was Saturday, December 11, 2021. And petitioner failed to depart the country by that Saturday. Saturday is a day of the week, and there is no reason why petitioner could not have left the country on or before that date. Petitioner gives us no reason to believe---and I am aware of none—that the roads to Mexico, his home country, were closed; so he could have driven or taken a bus across the border. He also could have flown to Mexico or any other country that would admit him.”

“Nevertheless, the Court holds that he was entitled to “a 2-day extension because the last day of his voluntary departure deadline happened to fall on a weekend. There is no justification for that decision,” he added.

IN FULL:

On Tuesday, a lethal attack was carried out by suspected militants targeting tourists in the Pahalgam region of Indian-controlled Kashmir. Between 20 and 24 people were killed, with several others sustaining injuries, according to various reports, although an official death toll had not been released as of the time of publication. Pahalgam, known for its scenic meadows and glaciers, attracts substantial tourist numbers yearly.Two senior police officials, who wished to remain unnamed, confirmed to the Associated Press that at least 20 deceased have been located and that around three dozen individuals were injured, many critically. The assailants reportedly targeted a gathering of tourists at close proximity, sparking chaos. A joint military, paramilitary, and police search effort is underway to locate those responsible.U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance, whose in-laws are Indian, is currently in India, laying the groundwork for a trade deal between the United States and the Hindu-majority nation.“Usha and I extend our condolences to the victims of the devastating terrorist attack in Pahalgam, India,” he said of the attack in a statement on social media. “Over the past few days, we have been overcome with the beauty of this country and its people. Our thoughts and prayers are with them as they mourn this horrific attack.”“The United States stands strong with India against Terrorism,” said President Donald J.

Only trust firsthand sources on US-Russia talks -- Kremlin

22 Apr, 2025 21:19

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has recommended that people go to primary sources regarding developments in the US-Russian talks on the Ukraine conflict, warning of fake news.

In an interview with RIA Novosti on Tuesday, the spokesman was asked to comment on a recent report from the Financial Times that claimed Moscow was ready to halt hostilities in the Ukraine conflict along the current front line.

“A lot of fakes are being published now, including by respected publications, so you should only listen to the primary sources,” Peskov said.

According to the FT article from Tuesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin offered to freeze the conflict along its current front line during his meeting with US special envoy Steve Witkoff earlier this month in St. Petersburg.

Russian presidential foreign policy aide Yury Ushakov confirmed on Tuesday that Moscow is expecting another visit from Witkoff later this week.

This will be the diplomat’s fourth visit to Russia since the start of the US diplomatic push around the Ukraine conflict.

US President Donald Trump has touted a big reveal of his plan to wrap up the hostilities in Ukraine.

“I will be giving you a full detail over the next three days,” he told journalists on Monday, adding that the US has held “very good meetings on Ukraine, Russia.”

The Kremlin has noted that while work is underway, the peace process is unlikely to conclude soon.

“This topic is so complex that it probably shouldn’t be constrained by strict timeframes,” Peskov told the press on Tuesday.

Trump and his administration have signaled a growing dissatisfaction with the pace of the peace talks.

“If it is not possible to end the war in Ukraine, we need to move on,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters last Friday.

Throughout the Ukraine conflict, Moscow has consistently said it remains open to talks with Kiev.

Negotiations must be based on the realities on the ground and address the root causes of the crisis, such as Ukraine’s aspiration to join NATO.

The Kremlin has previously insisted that it will not accept a temporary halt in hostilities, saying this would just allow Ukraine’s Western backers to rearm Kiev.

World-first: Japan developing drone system to make power from lightning strikes

Updated: Apr 21, 2025 07:16 AM EST

Japanese firms have developed the world’s first lightning-triggering and guidance system using flying drones, according to reports translated from Japanese sources.

Developed by The Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT), these drones have successfully induced and guided lightning using electric field fluctuations. Engineers designed a lightning-resistant cage to protect the drones during strikes.

Following successful trials earlier this year, there are plans to deploy networks of these drones across cities and around critical infrastructure to help prevent lightning-related damage and improve public safety.

“In the future, this result is expected to contribute to research into the generation of lightning, which has yet to be fully understood, and to the reduction of lightning damage to cities and people,” said the firm in a statement.

Guided lightning defense

A significant natural danger, lightning is thought to cause between $702 million to $1.4 billion (¥100 and ¥200 billion) in damage in Japan each year.

The risk still exists despite current defenses, such as lightning protection for vital infrastructure like the communications facilities of NTT Group.

NTT is responding by developing its lightning protection technology with the goal of completely preventing lightning strikes on important infrastructure and metropolitan areas.

The use and range of traditional lightning rods are limited, especially in difficult-to-equip places like wind turbines and outdoor event spaces.

NTT has been investigating drone-based lightning induction, a cutting-edge technique that uses drones to monitor thunderclouds, intentionally trigger lightning, and safely reroute it, in order to remedy this issue.

In a recent field demonstration under natural thundercloud conditions, NTT, in collaboration with Fujitsu, successfully tested this concept.

The experiment featured two key technologies: lightning induction using electric field fluctuations to attract lightning to a drone, and a specially designed lightning-resistant cage that prevents drone failure even under direct strikes.

Lightning safety breakthrough

In the hilly area of Hamada City, Shimane Prefecture, Japan, a first successful drone-based lightning-triggering experiment was carried out between December 2024 and January 2025.

To safeguard vital infrastructure, the test sought to create technologies that can safely control and actively trigger lightning.

The researchers employed a ground-based field mill to track the strength of the electric field during the experiment.

A drone with a lightning-resistant cage was flown to 984 feet (300 meters) on December 13, 2024, when an oncoming thundercloud increased the electric field.

The drone was wired to a ground switch, and when the switch was turned on, an abrupt shift in the electric field caused a lightning strike.

It was the first documented instance of a drone actively causing lightning, according to NTT.

A lightning-resistant cage and a technique for initiating electric field fluctuations were two significant advancements that the experiment showcased.

Even after a strike, the drone remained stable in mid-air thanks to the metal cage’s ability to distribute magnetic fields and redirect lightning current away from delicate drone components.

New Pope urged to 'share the Vatican's UFO secrets after decades of silence'

Updated 13:05, 21 Apr 2025

He's not even been picked yet, but already the new Pope has requests flying in from far and wide.

Following the news of Pope Francis' passing at 88 officials are now shifting their focus to who could potentially replace him.

And when the 267th Pope is sworn in, a British UFO researcher and filmmaker wants the newly elected Pontiff to break decades of silence and finally reveal the Vatican’s hidden knowledge on UFO phenomena.

Pope Francis, who assumed the papacy in 2013, was lauded for making the Church more inclusive in both speech and action. And Mark Christopher Lee is hopeful that his successor will be just as forward thinking.

As the world grows more accepting of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs), Lee argues it's high time the Catholic Church revealed its true knowledge on the matter.

Drawing on the extensive research of Vatican scholar Rob Howells, Lee highlights ongoing allegations that the Church continues to suppress the Third Secret of Fatima - a contentious and enigmatic message supposedly conveyed by a vision to three peasant children in Portugal in 1917.

While the Church has officially released what it claims to be the full message, many researchers, including Howell, assert that a deeper, more unsettling truth remains concealed.

Lee believes the Fatima event was not a religious vision, but a UFO encounter misinterpreted at the time through the lens of religious experience.

He said: “What the children saw and described---an intense shining object, sudden weather changes, and a radiant ‘being’ who communicated messages—fits the classic pattern of close encounters.

“This was not the Virgin Mary. This was a non-human intelligence trying to communicate with us. And the Vatican knows it.”

The filmmaker, known for exploring the intersection between religion, history, and extra-terrestrial life, is calling for complete transparency from the new papacy.

He added: “If the Church is truly committed to spiritual truth and human enlightenment, then it must no longer suppress information that could fundamentally reshape our understanding of our place in the cosmos.”

Lee’s work has gained international attention for challenging long-held assumptions about religious phenomena and offering bold, evidence-based alternative interpretations.

His upcoming documentary, which is currently in the works, promises to delve deeper into the Fatima mystery, the Vatican's clandestine archives, and the increasing pressure for the Church to address the modern discourse surrounding UAPs.

The news of Pope Francis' death was confirmed by the Vatican on social media, stating: "Pope Francis died on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025, at the age of 88 at his residence in the Vatican's Casa Santa Marta."

A spokesman said: "Dearest brothers and sisters, with deep sorrow I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis.

At 7:35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the Father. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and of His Church.

"He taught us to live the values of the Gospel with fidelity, courage, and universal love, especially in favor of the poorest and most marginalized.

With immense gratitude for his example as a true disciple of the Lord Jesus, we commend the soul of Pope Francis to the infinite merciful love of the One and Triune God."

I snuck into Area 51 against the government’s will --- I’m shocked by what I saw

April 20, 2025, 1:27 p.m. ET

A man who studied the science of humans and culture unexpectedly stumbled upon a restricted section of Area 51 in Nevada --- and lived to tell the tale of his wild experience.

In 1996, Jerry Freeman innocently set out on a week-long mission to follow the trail of the pioneers who headed out west to California in 1849 to find gold.

The pioneers never made it to their destination, but they did leave behind several journals on the border of Area 51 --- which is about 80 miles northwest of Las Vegas.

It became Freeman’s mission to find those lost inscriptions. However, despite so many years passing, the Air Force was not keen on Freeman accessing the restricted area.

As a result, the ambitious man set out at night to get the job done. While he might not have found what he was looking for, Freeman stumbled upon something even better.

Freeman described his experience to journalist and UFO researcher George Knapp, recalling one night when he came across a possible alien spacecraft, according to the Daily Mail.

“It looked like a dry lake bed to me, nothing else, but at night it was a different story,” Freeman said.

“I could clearly see what were security lights on the perimeters and I could see lights that opened and closed near the center of the lake,” the anthropologist continued.

Freeman was only able to observe for a few minutes, but during that short period of time, he felt vibrations under his feet that indicated that something was being tested.

“I think if they’d have caught me in there that they’d have lit me up like a Roman candle,” he admitted.

Area 51 was a hush-hush topic for years, despite the country’s fascination with the mysterious area --- until 2013, when the government finally admitted that it existed.

Although Freeman’s experience happened almost 30 years ago, to this day, people have their own thoughts and theories on Area 51 being connected to aliens.

Just recently, a triangular tower at Area 51 had conspiracy theorists believing it has to do with alien technology.

“Right next to a runway … probably a flight control tower?” someone said on social media.

“Maybe a phased radar setup,” another person wrote.

“Multi-phase radar array by the look it. Likely for smaller drone size craft, hence the configuration.

It’s right by the runway, it is still a base used to test prosaic yet classified craft,” said someone else.

Argentina’s UFO Highway: Why Route 368 in Capilla del Monte Draws Alien Believers Worldwide

22 April, 2025

Have you ever heard of a road where UFO sightings are so common that people call it the “UFO Highway”?

In Argentina, Route 368 (a quiet stretch near the town of Capilla del Monte) has become a hotspot for researchers and curious travelers.

For decades, unexplained aircraft and eerie encounters have been reported here, but what makes this place so special?

Why do people from around the world visit, hoping to catch a glimpse of something otherworldly?

Let’s explore the mystery of this highway after you’ve made your own historical trip through your favorite online platform, playing the legendary title of Azurslot.

The Legends

Capilla del Monte is a small town in Córdoba Province, Argentina, and it’s surrounded by mountains and vast open skies. While it seems like an ordinary place… wait until you hear the stories.

The 1986 UFO Sighting

The legend really took off in 1986, when many witnesses reported seeing a massive, glowing UFO hovering over Cerro Uritorco, a nearby mountain.

The object was described as a bright, disc-shaped craft that lit up the night before vanishing without a trace.

Since then, hundreds of people (locals and tourists alike!) claim to have seen strange lights, silent planes, and even beings that don’t look human. Some say the mountain itself is a portal to another dimension.

Why Here? Theories Behind the Phenomenon

Scientists and researchers have tried to explain why this area attracts so many sightings, and some theories include:

Magnetic Anomalies: The region has unusual magnetic fields that might interfere with aircraft or create optical illusions.

Underground Bases: Conspiracy theorists believe there’s a secret alien base beneath Cerro Uritorco.

Spiritual Energy: Locals say the mountain has a special energy that attracts both UFOs and spiritual seekers.

What Visitors Experience

If you drive along the route at night, you might see some flickering lights in the distance, and while some vanish in seconds, others hover for hours. But sightings aren’t the only strange occurrences here.

Strange Phenomena Reported by Travelers

Orbs of Light: Bright, floating spheres that move in impossible ways.

Sudden Tech Failures: Phones and other devices suddenly stop working.

Unexplained Sounds: Whispers, hums, and even metallic echoes with no clear source.

Many visitors camp near Cerro Uritorco, hoping to witness something extraordinary. Some even leave offerings---crystals, notes, or small trinkets—as if trying to communicate with whatever is out there.

The Annual Festival

Every year, the area hosts the UFO Festival, where believers, cynics, and scientists gather to share stories and evidence. The event includes:

Night sky watch parties

Lectures from researchers

Art exhibits inspired by extraterrestrial themes

It’s a celebration of the unknown and proof that this little town has embraced its cosmic reputation.

Skeptics vs. Believers: What’s Really Happening?

Not everyone is convinced that aliens are visiting Route 368. Skeptics argue that many sightings can be explained by:

Weather balloons or drones

Military aircraft testing

Natural light reflections

Yet, even scientists admit that some reports remain unexplained, but the sheer number of consistent eyewitness accounts makes it hard to dismiss everything as mere coincidence.

Could There Be an Explanation?

Some researchers suggest plasma phenomena (rare electrical discharges in the atmosphere) could be mistaken for UFOs, while others think the mountain’s unique geology might create optical tricks.

But for those who’ve seen the lights up close, no scientific theory can shake their belief that something extraordinary is happening here.

Will You Visit?

The combination of stunning landscapes, eerie legends, and the possibility of witnessing the unexplained makes it a bucket-list destination.

If you ever fly to the country, take a detour there and look up at the night sky, and who knows? You might just see something that changes how you see the universe.

Giant Evangelion appears in Hamamatsu city hall through early 2026

Apr 20, 2025 - 19:51

A roughly six-meter-tall Evangelion Unit 01 statue made its appearance in Hamamatsu, central Japan, on Sunday as part of a local government tourism campaign through next February in the hope of cashing in on the city's connection to the popular anime film.

The purple giant humanoid robot from the film "Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time" will tower over the lobby of Hamamatsu city hall in Shizuoka Prefecture until late January next year, including on weekends and public holidays.

About 170 people lined up in front of the municipal headquarters to see the statue ahead of the public opening at 10:30 a.m.

During the opening ceremony, the city firefighters' music band played the popular theme song of the anime.

The local initiative, which celebrates the 30th anniversary of the original TV series, follows Evangelion-themed campaigns launched in recent years by Tenryu Hamanako Railroad Co. and Enshu Railway Co. centered around the city's Tenryu Futamata Station - a model for Village-3 in the 2021 movie.

The station has since been inundated with "anime pilgrims" eager to see a 3.6-meter-tall "Spear of Longinus," a giant extraterrestrial weapon central to the story, installed in 2023 at its train depot.

Evangelion-themed trains also run at certain times through the station.

As part of Hamamatsu's new campaign, the two local railway operators began sales of one-day unlimited ride passes featuring images of the main character Shinji Ikari and fellow pilot Kaworu Nagisa.

Visitors can complete a stamp rally covering 21 spots along the Tenryu Hamanako and Enshu railway lines, with cutouts of Evangelion characters placed at certain locations. Those who collect 10 stamps will receive an exclusive sticker.

"Through Evangelion, I want people to rediscover the appeal of Hamamatsu's tourism and culture," said Mayor Yusuke Nakano, while also expressing interest in partnering with Hakone in Kanagawa Prefecture and Ube in Yamaguchi Prefecture.

Hakone served as the model for the postapocalyptic fortified city of Tokyo-3, while Ube is the hometown of series director Hideaki Anno. Both locations have also run Evangelion-related tourism campaigns in the past.

Yesterday, on X, a Hollywood "star" named Ellen Barkin stated that she wants Tom Homan to drop dead.

Attached is a screenshot of post Ellen Barkin, that washed-up, old Commuist hag, made on her "private" X account.

I cannot archive it because her X posts are "protected," kek.

Ellen Barkin apparently did not realize that not all of her "followers" approve of her deadly criminal Communist threats.

Someone close to Mr. Homan and Kash Patel should let them both know that Ellen Barkin wants Mr. Homan dead.

Seems like a matter of national security to me.

Federal judge orders Trump administration to rehire all Voice of America and Radio Free Asia staff

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore Voice of America, saying the effort to gut the 80-year-old government-funded news service likely violated the law and Constitution.

U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth said the administration’s rush to dismantle the VOA and related news organizations funded by the U.S. Agency for Global Media resulted in the suspension of hundreds of journalists and employees. It put some overseas correspondents at risk of being deported to their home countries, the judge noted. And Lamberth said the silencing of VOA --- for the first time in 80 years — also deprived hundreds of millions of listeners of a reliable source of news in parts of the world that lack a free press.

Lamberth said the administration offered virtually no justification for the draconian cuts, suggesting it was working to comply with President Donald Trump’s March 14 executive order requiring a significant scaling back of the agency. Yet the cuts were so bone-deep, Lamberth said, that they likely violated even Trump’s command that the programs continue to operate at legally required minimum levels of service.

“They took immediate and drastic action to slash USAGM, without considering its statutorily or constitutionally required functions as required by the plain language of the [executive order], and without regard to the harm inflicted on employees, contractors, journalists, and media consumers around the world,” Lamberth said. “It is hard to fathom a more straightforward display of arbitrary and capricious actions than the Defendants’ actions here.”

The judge, a Reagan appointee, is ordering the Trump administration to immediately restore all employees and contractors to their news programs and unfreeze funding streams for other affiliated networks like Radio Free Asia and Middle East Broadcasting Networks. He also ordered officials to restore VOA programming to fulfill the legal mandate that it “serve as a consistently reliable and authoritative source of news.”

A spokesperson for USAGM did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The ruling is the latest legal blow to the administration’s effort to dramatically remake the federal bureaucracy, and one aimed squarely at one of the U.S. government’s most visible and widely known properties around the world. Other judges have grappled with lawsuits aimed at dismantling government agencies, such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and U.S. Agency for International Development, raising alarms that the administration appeared to be attempting to permanently obliterate them before courts could act.

Lamberth nodded to that concern, noting that had courts not stepped in multiple times, several of USAGM’s prominent news services might already be gone. He noted that as of now, the only operational news service under USAGM is a 33-person unit in the Office of Cuba Broadcasting.

Trump and his allies have decried Voice of America as a bastion of “far-left” ideology and suggested it doesn’t serve U.S. government interests.

Lamberth indicated in his ruling that the sweeping effort to break VOA appeared to be based in part on those views, despite claims that the administration was not targeting First Amendment-protected speech.

Lamberth also indicated that the effort was likely a direct breach of the Constitution, saying the administration’s “unwillingness to expend funds in accordance with the congressional appropriations laws is a direct affront to the power of the legislative branch.”

“VOA has been operating under statutory mandate and with steady congressional appropriations for over eighty years, and in so doing, has cultivated an audience of 425 million listeners who rely on VOA’s output --- particularly in areas of the world where a free press is otherwise unavailable,” Lamberth wrote. “The Networks have contributed to U.S. international broadcasting by almost exclusively relying on their yearly congressional appropriations, which have been uninterrupted for decades before March 15, 2025. There is no sign that the defendants considered these longstanding reliance interests before taking the sweeping actions at issue here.”

Julie Kelly: Supreme Court gets involved in very dirty case

WHOO BOY: In an order filed last night, Judge James Hendrixthe judge in Texas presiding over latest Alien Enemies Act case which prompted unprecedented intervention by SCOTUSaccused ACLU atty of violating federal code of conduct rules by calling his chambers AFTER Hendrix denied the 1st emergency temp restraining order on April 17.

This was noted on the docket after Hendrix filed his order. Now it makes me wonder if Lee Gelernt did not do exactly the same thing with Judge Jeb Boasberg-which could explain Boasberg's quick action on March 15.

Here is the voicemail from Gelernt.

What are the chances he left the same message with Boasberg in the wee hours of March 15? In fact (and I will look at transcript), I believe Boasberg admitted to being "in communication" with ACLU prior to issuing any order or setting hearings.

Hendrix denied the emergency motion bc Trump adm said the 2 anonymous Venezuelan illegals cited in the lawsuit would not be removed. Butjust like in the Boasberg casethat was not enough.

ACLU was demanding the case be converted into a class action suit covering ANYONE in the jurisdiction that might be subject to the Alien Enemies Act-which is what Boasberg did before his "return the planes" stunt.

ACLU was hoping for same outcome here. Hendrix was not playing their game. Even so, he was advancing the suit on Good Friday-but that wasn't good enough for ACLU, which is used to running roughshod over the courts.

They immediately appealed, taking the matter out of Hendrix's hands. Then they cried to SCOTUS, who bailed ACLU (and the illegals) out.

SCOTUS just got involved in what looks like a very dirty case from the start. Good to see at least one judge stand up for himself and for the process.

Judge Hendrix had to admonish ACLU twice in one day about not following the rules.

Watch today-the judge sadly will become villain number one in the media. Just like Aileen Cannon.

How Junk Food Took Hold In The US And What RFK Jr. Is Doing About It

Tyler Durden's Photo

by Tyler Durden

Tuesday, Apr 22, 2025 - 06:05 PM

Authored by Lawrence Wilson via The Epoch Times,

“It’s not food. It’s food-like substances.”

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. described the many manufactured food products offered that are high in calories but low in nutritional value.

“So, strawberry flavoring in food, but there’s no nutrients. It’s sugar.” Kennedy said. “Your body is craving that, but it doesn’t get filled up. It doesn’t give you nutrition, but you want to eat more.”

Kennedy, a longtime health advocate, has championed President Donald Trump’s call for “fresh thinking on nutrition” as part of the Make America Healthy Again initiative. The secretary spoke in Indianapolis on April 15 in support of Gov. Mike Braun’s announcement of nine health-related executive orders.

Kennedy has urged states to prohibit the use of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) funds to purchase certain foods with high sugar content but little nutritional value.

SNAP, colloquially known as food stamps, is a federal program administered by the states that helps nearly 42 million low-income Americans pay for food.

To change the list of foods eligible for purchase with SNAP funds, states must request a waiver from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). A handful of states, including Indiana, are doing that.

Advocates call this a commonsense way to promote better food choices.

Some critics say the initiative amounts to virtue signaling, a symbolic action unlikely to produce any positive effect.

Kennedy hopes it will fuel a movement toward healthier food consumption that will reverse the growing prevalence of obesity among Americans.

Junk Food Origins

Kennedy and others have blamed the glut of tasty but vacuous foods on big tobacco companies, which entered the food industry more than 60 years ago.

In the 1960s, R.J. Reynolds and Philip Morris, then the largest tobacco brands, began developing children’s beverages including Hawaiian Punch, Kool-Aid, Capri Sun, and Tang, according to a report from The BMJ, formerly the British Medical Journal.

“Tobacco executives transferred their knowledge of marketing to young people and expanded product lines using colours, flavours, and marketing strategies originally designed to market cigarettes,” a team of researchers reported.

Why haven't there been any arrests for these Treasonous politicians? Why no arrests over the Epstein list?

There can't be - YET.

Bondi, Bongino, Kash and POTUS are catching tons of heat for not making public arrests without anyone stopping to think WHY President Trump is exposing all these corrupt Judges, DA's and prosecutors that are going against him at every damn turn.

Okay, so we indict and arrest Comey, Clinton's, Brennan, Schiff, Obama etc. and get them in front of judges with all the evidence to be prosecuted.

Then what?

People expect ANY of these corrupt Judges to convict?!

We aren't stupid. We know they'll shuffle proceedings to judges that are bought off.

The entire damn judicial system is rotten from the top down.

It has to be cleaned up first, and that's what POTUS is pointing out.

We have one shot once all these Treasonous pieces of shits are publicly indicted.

"I'm actually looking forward to the midterms, I really am. We're going to prove that all of their treasonous years of betrayal will not be forgotten, because it's treason. What they did is treason.

When they allowed millions of people to pour in through open borders from all over the world they came, to me that's treason. What they've done to our country is unthinkable."

In midterm elections, judges are on the ballot. Do your part and meet them in the middle!

These sweeping changes will empower our talented diplomats to put America and Americans first,” Rubio said, formally releasing a statement.“In its current form, the Department is bloated, bureaucratic, and unable to perform its essential diplomatic mission in this new era of essential diplomatic competition,” Rubio’s formal statement reads in part,

In the wake of Oct. 7, Mahdawi said he could "empathize" with Hamas's decision to launch the attack and used a siren to drown out pro-Israel students protesting for the release of Israeli child hostages. Mahdawi, who, like fellow Columbia activist Mahmoud Khalil, saw the Trump administration revoke his green card, is at an immigration facility in Vermont as he fights his deportation.

The Supreme Court ruled that weekends and holidays cannot be counted when foreign nationals are given deadlines to leave the United States. In a split 5-4 decision, a majority of justices on the nation’s highest court ruled in favor of Hugo Abisai Monsalvo Velazquez, a Mexican national who had been living unlawfully in the U.S. for years and ordered deported. Velazquez successfully argued that his 60-day notice to leave the country --- which ended on a Saturday — should have provided more flexibility for weekends and holidays.
