What a gay sex tape scandal says about the state of Iran

The revelation that an Iranian official in charge of Islamic values has been caught on video having sex with another man will have come as no surprise to much of the Iranian population.

Few care about the individual’s sexual preferences but many have contempt for the hypocrisy that is emblematic of the ruling class. Reza Saghati, the local representative of the ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance in Gilan province, appears to have been imprudent (or hubristic) enough to video his escapades. One of those videos then found its way, courtesy of local activists, onto a local social media channel. This was swiftly followed by another leak which suggested that a local cleric in charge of maintaining good Islamic morals was also indulging in behavior contrary to his beliefs.

Migrants Refuse Barge Housing Blaming Fear of Water

The Tories cannot do right on migration. Party officials are desperate to look tough on illegal crossings to win favour among voters ahead of next year’s general election. But every scheme, following months and months of idle talk, ends in humiliation.

The latest, described as “the flagship of the government’s latest plan to ‘stop the boats,’” is no exception to this rule.

How Kyiv’s kill squads pick off commanders inside Russia

The driver of the Russian army lorry would not have noticed the rifle barrels protruding from the roadside foliage. Far from the border with Ukraine, he was speeding along a deserted country road towards the city of Belgorod.

He may not have heard the first shots clatter into the cab as the six-man Ukrainian special forces team opened fire, sending the lorry jolting off the road and into the tree line, where it came to an abrupt halt. The Ukrainians emptied their magazines into it: they were a long way from home and could take no prisoners.

Not a Normal Politician or a Normal Human Being

Whatever you do. Don’t ask him about his father.”

That was Bob Bauer, lawyer for President Obama, to biographer David Garrow as he prepared to interview the president for the Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama, released in 2017.

“Barack Obama devoted dozens of hours to reading the first ten chapters of this manuscript,” Garrow says on page 1084, and had “remaining disagreements – some strong indeed – with multiple characterizations and interpretations” in the book. Garrow, who won a Pulitzer Prize for Bearing the Cross: Martin Luther King Jr. and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, has some rather strong disagreements with Obama.

Will the ‘Money Guy’ Expose the Bidens’ Bribery Schemes?

Earlier this month, former Hunter Biden associate Devon Archer testified before the House Oversight Committee, and he made it very clear that Hunter Biden was selling influence with his father while the latter was vice president. Democrats tried to spin the testimony as being a dud, but Archer demonstrated that Hunter Biden used his “very powerful name” to “add value” in pitching and securing foreign business ventures, and that Joe Biden frequently was present during business calls to help sell the Biden “brand.”

CBC, media groups ask Competition Bureau to investigate Meta’s move to block news in Canada

CBC/Radio-Canada has joined other news publishers and broadcasters in requesting that Canada’s Competition Bureau investigate Meta’s decision to block news content on its digital platforms in Canada, describing the social media giant’s decision as “anticompetitive.”

Meta, which owns platforms like Facebook and Instagram, announced recently that it is permanently ending news availability for users in Canada in response to the country’s Online News Act, or Bill C-18, a law that requires tech companies like Google and Meta to pay media outlets for news content they share or otherwise repurpose on their platforms.

Tasha Kheiriddin: The carbon tax is coming back to bite the Liberals, hard

What do Canadians think of carbon taxes? We know what the federal government thinks: Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault is a huge fan, as he has been a vocal proponent of his government’s imposition of a minimum price of $65 per tonne of carbon, which has raised the price at the pump by 14 cents per litre in much of the country.

Ukraine arrests woman in alleged foiled Russian assassination plot against Zelenskyy

Zelensky Assassin – pixilation gave her away.

Ukraine says it has foiled a fresh assassination attempt against President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and arrested a woman believed to have been acting as an informant for Russia.

In a statement Monday, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) alleged the woman was trying to “establish the time and list of locations” of where Zelenskyy would be during a trip of the southern Ukrainian region of Mykolaiv, in order to help Russia carry out a “new mass airstrike” there.

How old is Meghan Markle… really?

There are plenty of legitimate reasons to shave a few years off your age. Sportsmen do it all the time for example. Cockburn did it in a bar last week.

But if you’re in the public eye, are known for not being particularly popular and are estranged from your fame-hungry family, it’s possible that you’d raise suspicions if doing so. Meghan Markle has recently been accused of lying about her age as she celebrated her forty-second birthday on August 4.

Zoom denies training AI on calls without consent

Zoom has updated its terms of service after a backlash over fears that it trained its artificial intelligence (AI) models on customer calls.

In a blog post the firm stressed that audio, video and chats were not used for AI without consent.

The video-calling app acted after users noticed changes to the firm’s terms of service in March which they worried enabled AI training.

The firm said it made the changes to be more transparent.

Pakistan: ‘Eye-for-an-Eye’ Repercussions on Christians from Sweden Burning the Quran

In the interconnected, digital world of the 21st-century, an event thousands of miles away can send shockwaves felt in other parts of the world. The recent burning of a Quran in Sweden has had reverberations as far away as Pakistan and a special impact on the already defenceless Christian minority there.

This is not the first time Pakistani Christians have experienced societal prejudice, institutional discrimination, and sporadic violence. These issues are frequently exacerbated whenever similar events take place anywhere in the West. The fallout from the Quran’s desecration in Sweden, however, has intensified these conflicts, resulting in an alarming rise in threats and the defilement of Christian symbols, particularly the Cross, symbolising Christianity.
