Afghanistan: Joint call for an immediate end to attacks against human rights defenders and need for protection and accountability
Amnesty International, along with other human rights organisations, call of the Government of Afghanistan to end the threats, harassment, intimidation and attacks against human rights defenders, activists, journalists and media workers in the country. The Government of Afghanistan and international stakeholders and facilitators in the ongoing peace process, must take responsibility through their conduct and engagement in the country to stop the increase in violent attacks against human rights defenders. These organisations, in a joint letter, collectively call for an effective protection mechanism for human rights defenders in Afghanistan.
Israeli Human Rights Group B’Tselem: Israel Is Committing War Crimes by Killing Civilians in Gaza
As the Palestinian death toll in Gaza tops 200, the leading Israeli human rights group B’Tselem is accusing Israel of committing war crimes by killing blockaded civilians and destroying infrastructure on a massive scale. Executive director Hagai El-Ad says Israel has not done enough to distinguish between military and civilian targets or to act with proportionality. “We’ve seen war crimes in previous military assaults on Gaza,” he says. “And, in fact, the impunity of the previous times in which war crimes were committed is what has paved the way for the continuation of more such crimes being committed.” Earlier this year, B’Tselem released a landmark report denouncing Israel as an “apartheid regime.”
Colorado to pay unemployed residents to get them to go back to work
The state of Colorado will pay unemployed Coloradans up to $1,600 to get them to go back to work full-time, the governor’s office announced Wednesday.
Gov. Jared Polis signed an executive order to create the “Colorado Jumpstart” incentive program. Those who have been unemployed for at least a week between between March 28 and May 16 (among other stipulations) but return to work full time before May 29 could receive up to $1,600 to help with the transition. If a person returns to work full time between May 30 and June 26, they can get $1,200.
There will be two payments, one after a full month of employment and the other after two months of employment. If a person loses their job during the eight-week period, they forfeit the rest of the payment.
Colorado will spend $500,000 in the first month, and will move the funding from the Coronavirus Relief Fund within the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment. Additional money will be allocated from the fund through FEMA reimbursements of public health expenses, according to CDLE.
The total cost of the program is estimated to be between $36 million and $57 million, potentially providing payments to 40,000 or more people. The funding will be available until Sept. 4.
Colorado’s unemployment rate in March was 6.4%, or more than 200,000 people, according to federal data. (April numbers aren’t out yet.) But job boards show more than 282,000 active openings, suggesting that there are thousands who have chosen not to enter or return to the workforce. The state hopes this incentive program will bring people back into workplaces for the long term. . .
Biologically Male Sexual Predators Housed In Washington Female Prisons, Court Documents Show
A legal battle between a private citizen and the ACLU of Washington Foundation has revealed that biologically male sexual predators are being housed in the state’s female prisons, it was announced by an advocacy group Wednesday.
In March, the ACLU of Washington filed a lawsuit to prevent the public release of records pertaining to transgender inmates in the Washington prison system. Now, a judge has ruled in favor of the ACLU against private citizen Andrea Kelly, but key information was uncovered during the proceedings about biological male prisoners in female prisons.
“Judge Rice’s decision in this case to prevent the release of records which prove sexual misconduct by men currently housed in women’s prisons sets a dangerous precedent. The state of Washington has failed to uphold its legal obligations under the Public Records Act and, in doing so, denied citizens our ability to hold the government accountable for their violation of the human rights of female inmates,” said Women’s Liberation Front legal director Lauren Adams, who is representing Kelly in the case. . .

The Media’s Matt Gaetz Source – Joel Greenberg – Just Pleaded Guilty to Making FALSE Pedophilia Allegations about His Opponents.
Did you know the guy behind the Matt Gaetz allegations just pleaded guilty to making false allegations about sex with a minor about another of his political opponents? The media doesn’t seem to want to report this part of the case, which is available for anyone who wants to read it in Joel Greenberg’s plea deal released on Monday.
Greenberg, a Florida tax collector in Seminole County, pleaded guilty this week to a series of crimes. The corporate media is reporting on his plea deal with prosecutors and the implications for firebrand Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz. But there’s something else you need to know, and the media don’t seem keen to tell people.
Greenberg is the only person making accusations about Rep. Gaetz right now – two months in – and there’s plenty of evidence to suggest his animosity is driven by Gaetz’s refusal to get involved in Greenberg’s demands for a pardon from President Trump.
But take a look at Count Twenty-Four in Greenberg’s deal. It’s stunning, and it goes right to the heart of the allegations being made – mostly on the far-left Daily Beast website – about Rep. Gaetz.
Count Twenty-Four, which Greenberg has pleaded guilty to, establishes that Greenberg is a malicious and habitual liar who uses web publications to make false, criminal allegations about his political adversaries. . .

Supreme Court Unanimously Rules Against Warrantless Gun Seizures
by Eric Lendrum
On Monday, in a rare unanimous decision, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled against the Biden Administration in a case regarding the legality of warrantless searches and seizures of firearms, The Epoch Times reports.
The case, Caniglia v. Strom, began oral arguments roughly two months ago. The case stems from an incident in Cranston, Rhode Island, back in August of 2015, where a man named Edward Caniglia had an argument with his wife of 22 years. Eventually, Caniglia withdrew an unloaded gun and suggested that his wife shoot him and “get me out of my misery.” His wife then called the police asking them to carry out a welfare check, where Caniglia was taken to the hospital.
Despite the police’s assurance that his guns would not be confiscated, they ultimately did seize his firearms without a warrant after he had been hospitalized, and refused to return them to him after he was discharged. Caniglia subsequently sued, claiming that the exception for community caretaking, which is what the police claimed to have used in this case, should not apply inside his home.
The Biden Administration’s Department of Justice, represented by DOJ lawyer Morgan Ratner, argued in favor of the city’s actions, claiming that “the label you give it is not nearly as important as principle. And the key principle is if someone is at risk of serious harm and it’s reasonable for officials to intervene now, that is enough.”
The Court ultimately ruled in Caniglia’s favor, determining that the seizure of his weapons without a warrant violated his Fourth Amendment rights. Justice Clarence Thomas wrote the relatively short opinion, at just four pages long.

Disturbing footage of Texas abduction shows alleged kidnapper taking 4-year-old
Newly released home surveillance footage captured the shocking moments that a teen allegedly abducted a 4-year-old from his Texas bedroom — before the child was found dead in the street.
The video, obtained and published by The Daily Mail, allegedly shows suspect Darriynn Brown, 18, breaking into Cash Gernon’s bedroom around 5 a.m. Saturday morning and taking the boy, who had been sleeping next to his twin brother.
He appears to momentarily hesitate before picking up Cash, and leaving the room.
Less than two hours later, Cash was stabbed to death with what police called an “edged weapon,” and his body was found dumped on a Dallas street by a jogger, officials said.
Security footage allegedly also captured the teen returning to the bedroom around 7 a.m. — after police said Cash had been killed — and hovering over his brother, Carter, but leaving without waking the boy, the Daily Mail reported.
More than 600,000 American kids ages 12 to 15 got Covid vaccines last week
- CDC Director Dr Rochelle Walensky revealed that more than 600,000 children between 12 and 15 got vaccinated last week during a White House press briefing
- U.S. regulators last week authorized Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine for use in children as young as 12
- About 17 million people aged 12 to 15 are now eligible to get shots, but only three in 10 parents said they wanted to vaccinate their kids ASAP
- Children very rarely get severely ill or die of COVID-19, but experts argue vaccinating them will help keep schools open in person and protect adults
REPORT: Bill Gates Hoped Epstein Could Help Him Win Nobel Peace Prize
Bill Gates wanted to use Jeffrey Epstein’s connections to get himself a Nobel Prize, the billionaire’s ex-staffer said, The Daily Beast reported Tuesday.
Members of Gates Foundation were assured that Gates‘ relationship with Epstein “was a maneuver” aimed at a Nobel Peace Prize, the former employee, who asked to remain anonymous, said, according to The Daily Beast. . .
Gates and Epstein held several meetings starting in 2011, three years after Epstein had pleaded guilty to soliciting a young girl, The New York Times reported. Gates reportedly said that Epstein’s “lifestyle is very different and kind of intriguing although it would not work for me,” in an email sent to colleagues at the time.
A 2013 meeting between Gates and the convicted sex criminal caused major issues in the relationship of the tech mogul with Melinda Gates which may have ultimately led to the couple’s early May divorce announcement, the Daily Beast reported. . .
Tlaib Confronts Biden on Israel, Saying Support Enables Crimes Against Palestinians

Representative Rashida Tlaib, Democrat of Michigan, confronted President Biden on Tuesday over his support for Israel amid its bombing campaign against Hamas in Gaza, urging him to stop enabling a government she said was committing crimes against Palestinians, according to a Democratic aide familiar with the exchange.
During a conversation on a tarmac in Detroit, where Mr. Biden had arrived to visit a Ford factory near her congressional district, Ms. Tlaib echoed a scathing speech she delivered last week on the House floor, telling the president that he must do more to protect Palestinian lives and human rights, said the aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe her remarks.
Her comments came as Israel has scaled up its bombing campaign in the past week. Among Democrats in Congress, attitudes toward Israel have grown more skeptical as the party base expresses concern about Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians, and several high-profile progressive lawmakers including Ms. Tlaib have become increasingly vocal about criticizing Mr. Biden for his stance.
There was no immediate comment on the exchange from the White House.

Officials Identify Slain Dallas 4-Year-Old as Cash Gernon, Suspect Being Held on $1.5 Million Bond
Officials identified a 4-year-old boy who was found dead on a street in Dallas as Cash Gernon, and police said he was being taken care of by the girlfriend of Cash’s father, according to a news release.
“There has been a misidentification of Ms. Monica Sherrod as to being Cash’s biological/Stepmother. Cash was left in the care of Ms. Sherrod by his father unbeknownst to his biological mother, Ms. Melinda Seagroves. According to Ms. Sherrod, she has not been able to contact the father since his departure from her residence in March 2021,” according to the news release.
The release added: “Meanwhile, Ms. Seagroves, with the help of her mother Ms. Connie Ward, has been conducting an extensive search for her sons for an extended amount of time.”
Cash’s brother has been reunited with Seagroves, they said, adding that “fraudulent GoFundMe accounts” have been set up.
Several hours before a 4-year-old boy was found deceased on a street in Dallas, a man was seen taking the boy from his bed and carrying him away, according to home surveillance footage cited by court documents.
The girlfriend said the person who took the child from his bed on Saturday was 18-year-old Darriynn Brown, officials said, reported Fox News and other media outlets.
Canada Will Need 75% Vaccination Before U.S. Border Reopens, Trudeau Suggests
WASHINGTON—Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is suggesting that three-quarters of Canadians will need to be vaccinated against COVID-19 before the Canada-U.S. border can be reopened.
Trudeau acknowledges that discussions about the border are ongoing, but he’s tamping down any expectations that travel restrictions could be lifted soon.
Discretionary travel between Canada and the United States has been prohibited since March 2020, a restriction that will be extended into June before the end of the week.
Trudeau says Canada is still not out of the current third wave of COVID-19 and has much more work to do before it’s safe for travel to resume.
That’s in contrast with the U.S., where a blistering vaccination pace has prompted public health officials to lift face mask requirements for people who are fully vaccinated.
That has some U.S. lawmakers urging the Biden administration to get serious about drafting a plan to allow travel to and from Canada to resume in time for the July 4 holiday.
Amazon’s Ring Is Largest Civilian Surveillance Network U.S. Has Ever Seen + More
Amazon’s Ring Is the Largest Civilian Surveillance Network the US Has Ever Seen
In a 2020 letter to management, Max Eliaser, an Amazon software engineer, said Ring is “simply not compatible with a free society.” We should take his claim seriously.
Ring video doorbells, Amazon’s signature home security product, pose a serious threat to a free and democratic society. Not only is Ring’s surveillance network spreading rapidly, it is extending the reach of law enforcement into private property and expanding the surveillance of everyday life. What’s more, once Ring users agree to release video content to law enforcement, there is no way to revoke access and few limitations on how that content can be used, stored, and with whom it can be shared. . . .
Biden Wants to Surveil Soldier Social Media Pages, Use Private Firms to ‘Circumvent’ First Amendment

The Democrats who control Joe Biden have been chirping about a “domestic war on terror” since January 6 and even before that while ignoring all the domestic violence their side was committing all throughout 2020. Leftists claim their concern is “extremism,” then declare any opinion they disagree with to be “extreme.” Unfortunately for them (yet good for Americans), the Bill of Rights makes it difficult for them to surveil anyone they determine to be a “domestic threat.” So they use private companies to get around pesky First Amendment issues. This now, according to reports, includes our military. That’s right. The Biden administration is concerned that our armed service members maybe a little too “extreme” and wants to monitor what they say on social media.
Per the Intercept, the Pentagon is working on a program to do just that.
An extremism steering committee led by Bishop Garrison, a senior adviser to the secretary of defense, is currently designing the social media screening pilot program, which will “continuously” monitor military personnel for “concerning behaviors,” according to a Pentagon briefing in late March. Although in the past the military has balked at surveilling service members for extremist political views due to First Amendment protections, the pilot program will rely on a private surveillance firm in order to circumvent First Amendment restrictions on government monitoring, according to a senior Pentagon official.
A spokesman for the House Armed Services Committee claims to believe this will only be used for background checks and vetting security clearance. Though they did add the following:
Secretary [of Defense Lloyd] Austin has been clear about his intentions to understand to what extent extremism exists in the force and its effect on good order and discipline.
Your level of concern is probably indexed to your level of cynicism toward the government’s “honesty” and “trustworthiness.” Mine is high on both counts. But there is a bigger problem, assuming the report is accurate. The people whose job it is to send soldiers into combat don’t trust the soldiers they send into combat. Or, at the very least, need to make sure they don’t hold opposing viewpoints.
The left will claim their only concern is “extreme” opinions, implying they’re looking for traitors and anarchists. We’ll see how quickly that becomes soldiers who question climate policy, disagree with POTUS on the Second Amendment, or think that boys are boys and girls are girls.

AP’s Sally Buzbee Mired in Scandal as She Preps for Role as Washington Post Executive Editor
![]()
Days after the Washington Post tapped Sally Buzbee to replace Marty Baron as executive editor, the Associated Press boss finds herself mired in controversy as the organization she has helmed since 2017 is under fire for knowingly associating with terrorists.
The Post announced Buzbee’s hiring on May 11 to the delight of journalists and other liberal proponents of representational diversity. Buzbee will be the first woman to serve as top editor of the Jeff Bezos-owned publication. The initial fervor over the announcement, however, was quickly overshadowed by criticism of the AP’s ties to Hamas, the Iranian-backed terrorist organization behind the recent spate of violence in Israel and the Palestinian territories.
The controversy began on May 15 after Israeli airstrikes destroyed the Jala Tower in Gaza City. The 12-story complex was home to a number of Hamas operations, including weapons manufacturing and military intelligence, as well as the Associated Press and other media organizations. According to national security expert Noah Pollak, the AP’s local reporters knew of the terrorist group’s presence in the office building.
Buzbee denied the AP, which has maintained offices in the Jala Tower for 15 years, was ever aware of the Hamas operations in the building, and demanded an independent investigation into the matter. “We are in a conflict situation,” Buzbee said in an interview with the AP. “We do not take sides in that conflict. We heard Israelis say they have evidence; we don’t know what that evidence is.”
Buzbee’s remarks echoed those of AP president and CEO Gary Pruitt, who said the organization was “shocked and horrified” by the Israeli airstrike and had “no indication Hamas was in the building.” Pruitt said the proximity of active terrorist operations was “something we actively check to the best of our ability” and insisted the AP “would never knowingly put our journalists at risk.”
The AP’s denials notwithstanding, evidence suggests the organization’s due diligence was less than thorough. Matti Friedman, a former AP correspondent based in Jerusalem, has written extensively about his experiences covering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on the ground. In a 2014 article published in the Atlantic, for example, Friedman explained how news coverage of the region was often shaped by an “informal alliance” between media organizations and Palestinian terrorist groups.
“The AP staff in Gaza City would witness a rocket launch right beside their office, endangering reporters and other civilians nearby—and the AP wouldn’t report it, not even in AP articles about Israeli claims that Hamas was launching rockets from residential areas,” Friedman wrote. “Hamas fighters would burst into the AP’s Gaza bureau and threaten the staff—and the AP wouldn’t report it.” . . .
