Fri, 14 Feb 2025 20:00:00 -0400

It’s possible that Americans could someday get a license to hunt drug cartel members. A U.S. senator has suggested that “letters of marque and reprisal” going back to the early 1800s could again be activated. The program under one of the U.S. Founding Fathers, President James Madison, allowed people to receive government licenses to become privateers to fight pirates, and it allowed them to attack and capture certain enemy vessels. If this is brought back, it could create a type of bounty hunter system, allowing Americans to fight gangs and cartels. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has announced a plan to launch reciprocal tariffs on other countries.

Why TikTok, RedNote and Tencent are Dangerous

Thu, 16 Jan 2025 20:00:00 -0400

TikTok may soon be banned in the United States due to its China ties, but some users are now migrating to a platform even more strongly linked to China’s communist regime. The case with TikTok is now in the hands of the Supreme Court, which is weighing the constitutionality of banning the video app unless its China-based owner, ByteDance, sells it off. It appears the ban is likely to be upheld, and some TikTok users have been jumping to another platform that’s even more Chinese—RedNote. Technically, the name is Xiaohongshu, which is Mandarin for “Little Red Book”—as in the teachings of former CCP leader Mao Zedong.

In other news, TikTok may be just the first of many such companies that could be forced to either sell or get banned in the United States. The U.S. Department of Defense recently listed Tencent as a Chinese military company, and this could also have broad implications for tech and entertainment. Tencent owns the messaging app WeChat and has also been buying up large swaths of companies in the video game market—including many of the most popular games currently available. With the new designation, and with the passage of some recent U.S. laws, Tencent could soon go the way of TikTok.

Sat, 11 Jan 2025 20:00:00 -0400

A persecution of between 70 million and 100 million people has largely been hidden from the world, and western news outlets have played a role in concealing it from the public. The Chinese Communist Party launched a campaign of torture, killing, and live organ harvesting against the Falun Gong religious group in 1999. And while many news outlets even won awards in the early years for exposing the truth of the Chinese regime’s brutal actions, many mysteriously stopped covering it around 2003, and some have even flipped to parroting the communist party’s propaganda.

To learn more about this, and what has actually been taking place, we speak with Levi Browde, executive director of the Falun Dafa Information Center, a human rights organization that has been researching and exposing the persecution.

Thu, 02 Jan 2025 20:00:00 -0400

You may soon be seeing new engagement on Facebook, but this may not be from human users.

Meta, the company behind Facebook and Instagram, has announced it will bring AI-generated characters to the social media platforms in a move to increase engagement on the platform, and users will be able to engage with these bots.

This is raising some concerns over what’s been referred to as the “dead internet theory.” This used to be a conspiracy that much of today’s internet is bots and AI-created content, while human users have been disengaging. And there are also concerns that the bot content could be used to drive different narratives or agendas.

SCOTUS Rules 9–0 on Decisive Case for Mass Deportations

Mon, 16 Dec 2024 20:00:00 -0400

The Supreme Court just made a unanimous ruling on a case that will be pivotal in President-elect Donald Trump’s plans for deportations of illegal immigrants. The 9–0 ruling has determined that federal courts cannot review a federal government decision to revoke an immigration visa. This means that if illegal immigrants are up for deportation, they will have a much more difficult time bringing their challenges to U.S. courts.

The Arab Spring may be making a return. A rebel uprising in Syria has now officially toppled the Assad regime. The country became a key focus of the uprisings in 2011 where people were overthrowing dictators in the region, but ended in Syria mainly through Russian intervention.
