US President Joe Biden on Friday said Israel has not yet decided how it’s going to respond to Iran’s ballistic missile assault, but suggested it should refrain from attacking Iranian oil facilities. “If I were in their shoes, I’d be thinking about other alternatives than striking oil fields,” Biden said during a rare appearance at the White House daily press briefing.

‘We need to topple Iran's regime before they acquire a nuclear weapon,’ Bennett says at Evangelical gathering

WASHINGTON, DC — Israel is now facing the most dangerous and decisive moment in its war with Iran since October 7th. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu, his War Cabinet, and top IDF generals are actively discussing how to best respond to the nearly 200 missiles that the Iranian regime fired at the Jewish state on Tuesday. The Israeli leadership is also actively discussing the best way to win the year-long war against Israel that Tehran has waged – and how best to neutralize the growing and existential threat posed by the Iranian regime if they can acquire nuclear warheads. U.S. President Joe Biden is warning Netanyahu not to hit Iran’s nuclear program.

Israel has given no assurances it won’t target Iran’s nuclear facilities, top State Department official tells CNN

WashingtonCNN — Israel has not given assurances to the Biden administration that targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities is off the table in retaliation for the Iranian ballistic missile strikes earlier this week, a top US State Department official told CNN on Friday.

The official added that it is “really hard to tell” if Israel will use the anniversary of Hamas’ October 7 attacks to retaliate. “We hope and expect to see some wisdom as well as strength, but as you guys know, no guarantees,” the official said when asked by CNN if Israel has assured the US that Iran’s nuclear sites are off the table. US officials have voiced support for Israel responding to Iran’s missile attack earlier this week, with multiple officials publicly saying there must be consequences. At the same time, officials have also voiced concerns about a regional conflagration as they grapple with an increasingly volatile Middle East.

Dramatic Footage Shows Tanker Blown Up In Critical Maritime Chokepoint As Disasters Mount For Biden-Harris

What a shitstorm. 

The Biden-Harris administration is facing several disasters this week. From FEMA's botched response in the hurricane-ravaged US Southeast to elevated WW3 risks in the Middle East, one major and ongoing crisis that went underreported this week was multiple attacks by Iran-backed Houthi rebels on commercial ships in the critical maritime chokepoint of the southern Red Sea. On Wednseday we penned a note, citing intelligence firm SynMax, which specializes in maritime and energy intelligence, about two commercial vessels targeted by Houthis: "Two ships targeted by Houthis in the RedSea yesterday—Panama-flagged CORDELIA MOON and Liberian-flagged MINOAN COURAGE—the first such attacks since September," SynMax wrote on X.

October is Here – It’s Now All Out War with Russia

The Russian Neocons have forced Putin to accept reality. Zelensky’s “VICTORY PLAN” is the complete destruction of Russia.

As I have said, I have had employees in both Kiev and Donetsk. The two would never talk to each other, and the one from Kiev attending our conference in Athens refused to take any flight hole that connected through Moscow. If you ever brought a bottle of Russian vodka to dinner in Kiev, it was an insult. Russia has terminated any peace negotiations. The Russian Neocons have made their point that Zelensky is purely interested in killing every possible Russia. There is no more resolution to this conflict than there are between Israel and Iran.

Lukashenko makes another cynical statement about Ukraine

The self-proclaimed president of Belarus says that his country would help rebuild Ukraine after the war ended. He believes that the US will not be involved, citing Belta.

According to Lukashenko, the US will be preoccupied with internal issues, and there will be no one to rebuild Ukraine. Therefore, Belarus is willing to take on that role. "That's why the leadership of Ukraine needs to get their act together and understand that their priority will be rebuilding the country. With the help of people close to them, primarily Belarusians," Lukashenko said. Lukashenko also criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for not traveling to Minsk or Moscow to "finally put an end to this war."

Conspiracies Circulate As People Wonder If Hurricane Helene Was Used To Seize Lithium And Mineral Deposits

In the wake of the mass destruction left behind from Hurricane Helene, some people have wondered if this hurricane was perhaps part of a sinister plot to destroy the land, claim eminent domain and force the residents off their property, and strip the earth of its natural resources, namely that of lithium.

Minerals such as lithium are commonly used in batteries, lubricants, glass and ceramics, pharmaceuticals, and much more. Some individuals have discovered a press release from the Department of Defene (DoD) published last year, defining a contract to extract lithium from Kings Mountain, North Carolina

More terror-linked migrants were encountered at the U.S.-Canada border—283— than at the U.S.-Mexico border—139—in the fiscal year to July 2024. “Over the next year, we expect some individuals with terrorism ties and some criminal actors will continue their efforts to exploit migration flows and the complex border security environment to enter the United States,” the DHS states in its Homeland Threat Assessment for 2025.

Trans Migrant Granted Refugee Status Despite Pedophilia Conviction

An Algerian migrant, referred to as Medhi F., has been granted refugee status in France despite a past conviction for the sexual assault of a minor. Medhi F., who identifies as transgender, had been sentenced in 2019 to four years in prison for the crime against a 15-year-old.

In 2020, Medhi sought asylum with the French Office for the Protection of Refugees and Stateless Persons (OFPRA), arguing that returning to Algeria would result in persecution due to his transgender identity. OFPRA rejected the application, but Medhi appealed the decision to France’s National Court of Asylum (CNDA). In 2023, the CNDA overturned OFPRA’s decision, claiming Medhi no longer posed a threat to society despite being a convicted pedophile.

Censorship Allegations Resurface as New Ad Coalition Takes Shape

A new organization has emerged, seemingly as a successor to the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM), which disbanded in early August under a cloud of controversy and accusations of corporate censorship, according to a new letter.

This new entity dubbed the “Dentsu Coalition,” was formed by Dentsu, a major Japanese PR firm and original GARM member, alongside The 614 Group, a prominent ad consulting firm. Their stated mission is to bolster “credible news” and foster a thriving journalistic environment through the collective effort of leading advertising industry figures. However, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, expressed concerns in a letter sent to Dentsu Americas CEO Michael Komasinski that the Dentsu Coalition might be walking a path similar to its predecessor.

New laws and policies have encouraged neighbors to report neighbors to the government

Last year, in Texas, a deteriorating marriage became the testing ground for a novel legal strategy favored by some of the country’s most prominent right-wing lawyers and politicians.

Marcus and Brittni Silva’s divorce had just been finalized when Marcus filed a lawsuit against two of Brittni’s friends. According to his complaint, Brittni had discovered that she was pregnant with their baby in July 2022, and ended the pregnancy by taking abortion medication.

How a tiny town struck by Helene could upend the global semiconductor chip industry

Virtually all of the world’s supply of a mineral that is critical to semiconductor production comes from one tiny town in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains that has been devastated by Hurricane Helene.

Spruce Pine, North Carolina has no running water or electricity, more than a week after Helene ripped through the town of 2,200. Roads and railways in and out of the area are severely damaged, according to local officials. Mines in Spruce Pine produce the world’s purest form of quartz, which plays a central role in chip manufacturing. Now, the town’s exceedingly valuable supply of high-purity quartz is at risk, threatening to cripple the $600 billion global semiconductor industry.

Wayne County, Michigan, the largest county in the state with more than 1.75 million residents, is dealing with a cyberattack that shut down all its government websites and limited the operations of several functions, including financial transactions, case management and estate sales.

The cyberattack was first reported by WXYZ on Wednesday.bDoug Lulgjuraj, a spokesperson for the county, which contains Detroit, told local affiliates that he expects the county’s website, which was still inaccessible on Thursday afternoon, to be “fully operational” by Friday, which would restore access to several online services, such as property tax payments and property records. “Impacted services have been transitioned to backup processes to maintain operations. Barring any unforeseen issues, we expect the county website to be fully operational by the start of business on Friday,” Lulgjuraj told ABC, FOX and CBS, on Wednesday.

Is Washington's 'high threat' volcano about to blow? Scientists baffled by record spike in earthquakes around Mount Adams

Scientists have been left baffled by a record spike in earthquakes near Washington's Mount Adams that has been dormant for thousands of years.

The volcano is deemed a 'high threat' due to its ability to trigger landslides, debris avalanches and mudflow that can travel up to 50 miles per hour down the slope, which would put thousand of people at risk. The region typically sees quakes once very three years, but the US Geological Survey (USGS) detected the six in September, which ranged from a 0.9 to 2.0 magnitude. While very weak, previous studies have suggested that swarms of small earthquakes can precede a volcanic eruption.
