#Ukraine - Biden authorizes Ukraine to use long-range US weapons in Russia: CNN

17 November 2024

President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to use powerful long-range American weapons inside Russia, according to a senior US official familiar with the decision, as North Korean troops deploy in support of Moscow’s effort.

The decision comes as Russia has deployed nearly 50,000 troops to Kursk, the southern Russian region where Kyiv launched its surprise counteroffensive in the summer, to prepare to take back territory.

US Air Force Col. Cedric Leighton (ret.) says that the move will send a signal to China and Pyongyang as thousands of North Korean troops have deployed to Kursk as part of the offensive.

#US - America Has Become a 'Surveillance Prison': CBN

7 November 2024

The most obvious culprit is all the cameras, and America has as many surveillance cameras per person as Communist China. Police departments in America's largest cities, from New York to L.A., are combining these cameras with facial recognition technology to track everyone. You're also giving away your personal information, about where you are, what you like, even about your mental health without even realizing it. Every click, purchase, and "like" is harvested and sold for profit by data brokers, feeding a growing digital advertising market that is close to one trillion dollars in value. Even your car tire sensors allow you to be tracked. Read the full story from CBN's Dale Hurd: https://cbn.com/news/us/america-has-b...
