An Alabama pastor has urged his congregation to pray for Donald Trump to ward off impending "witchcraft" which is allegedly threatening his presidency.

During his sermon at the Church of His Presence in Daphne, Alabama, Pastor John A. Kilpatrick told churchgoers that witchcraft is trying to take over the country, as he led his congregants in prayers to strengthen Trump against black magic's onslaught.

"I don't know if you're going to believe me when I tell you this, but what's happening right now in America is witchcraft is trying to take this country over," Kilpatrick said. A 14-minute clip of his sermon has been viewed almost 800,000 times since it was shared on Facebook on August 20. The pastor insisted he's "not being political" with his warning.


Comment: Pastor Kilpatrick may not be far off the mark!

US President Donald Trump may be a "rude, mean person" but he is a "very healthy corrective" to a culture of political correctness and ideological platitudes, former Silicon Valley magnate Peter Thiel has said.

The co-founder of PayPal defended the current US president at an event in Sao Paulo, Brazil on Monday.

"I got to meet a lot of people running for president on the US Republican side in 2016 and they all felt like zombies," Thiel said. "They couldn't say anything different other than programmed ideological soundbites." Trump was "a very healthy corrective to that," he added, according to Bloomberg.

Question

Hardcore Lazio football fans want women to stay away. That's sexist, but why can't men have their sacred spaces?

A leaflet asking women to stay away from a football stand where hardcore fans congregate is shocking in its disregard for modern sensibilities. But the hypocritical outrage at the idea itself doesn't help either gender.

The single-page home-printed flyer, apparently authored by the leader of the Irriducibili, one of the most attention-seeking Lazio ultras groups, has provoked the might of the entire football establishment. The Italian football federation has promised sanctions, the police have opened a sex discrimination case, and women's national football team striker Carolina Morace has called the incident "a return to the Middle Ages" and demanded stadium bans for the fans involved.

Any account of The Eagles' fans antics cannot ignore their well-documented history of racism and anti-Semitism, their fascist iconography and nostalgia, or their glorification of violence.

Organizers of right-wing activist Lauren Southern's Australian tour are refusing to pay a security bill of nearly $70,000, accusing Victoria Police of "victim blaming" after violent Antifa protesters crashed her Melbourne show.

Axiomatic Events was issued with the hefty AU$68,000 (US$49,857) bill for police services after left-wing protesters linked with Antifa targeted the Lauren Southern and Stefan Molyneux Live event in Melbourne on July 20. Police were forced to close roads due to protests. Protesters threw rocks and charged at a bus as it arrived. Police were assaulted in the clashes as left-wing protesters linked to Antifa began throwing punches.

Axiomatic Events Director Dave Pellowe has sent Victoria Police a letter detailing why the company will not pay - despite the Herald Sun revealing that Southern and her people were warned in advance of the $68,000 security bill - despite the actual cost of police protection totalling AU$230,000.

Video shows migrants land on Spanish beach, while tourists joke 'they're heading for an all-inclusive' hotel

Migrants land on Spanish beach
A new video shows dozens of people landing on a Spanish beach in an inflatable boat and rushing towards the cliffs while beachgoers joke that they were eager to get some good service at a local all-inclusive hotel.

With thousands of migrants running to Europe from poverty-stricken and war-ravaged parts of Africa, Spanish beaches are becoming a frequent destination as the continents are separated by the Strait of Gibraltar. The footage of this arrival was taken on Sunday at Spain's Costa de la Luz - a popular holiday spot not far from the strait.

Witnesses watched and cheered as the dingy crew abandoned their vessel and rushed towards the cliff, which separates Barrosa Beach from hotels and tourist shops further inland. "'Look how they're running towards the Sancti Petri Melia Hotel," one is heard commenting in Spanish in the video. "They're heading for the all-inclusive Melia Sancti Petri. Look, look, look."

Russian anti-corruption activist-turned opposition politician Aleksey Navalny was sentenced to 30 days of civil arrest for breaching the Russian law on public protests in the course of his January 'voters' strike' event.

The sentence was handed to Navalny on Monday by the Tverskoy District Court of Moscow. Earlier, he told reporters that when he asked investigators why it took them about six months to react to the January events, they said they "could not find him." The interior ministry has not yet issued any official comments regarding Navalny's statement.

In February, Russian news agencies reported that the Tverskoy District Court twice returned the civil case against Navalny to police to correct some technical mistakes in the paperwork.

Personal information of hundreds of thousands recruits and their relatives has been stolen from the servers of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), according to a report by the authorities. The suspects are said to have fished out sensitive data and sold it over the course of several years.

An investigation by the Israel Securities Authority (ISA) has revealed that between 2011 and 2014 staffers from the so-called recruitment unit, accessed the files of thousands of Israeli soldiers-to-be.

According to the Israeli broadcaster Hadashot news, the four suspected perpetrators used a specially developed program to fish out personal data from these files, including the recruits' and their relatives' contacts. The perpetrators, undetected for years, allegedly sold this information to marketing companies and other third parties.

Police called in reinforcements as hundreds of protesters, including far-right activists, hit the streets in the German city of Chemnitz after the death of a native in a brawl. Two suspects, a Syrian and an Iraqi, were detained.

The right-wing "Kaotic Chemnitz" (Chaotic Chemnitz) football fan group is said to have called for the Sunday rally, which later turned violent.

The demo came after news broke that a 35-year-old German man was fatally stabbed during a fight involving 10 people. Two other men in their 30s, both German, were also injured during the brawl.

The altercation happened at 3:15 AM, and is said to have been caused by a verbal argument. The police had initially refused to name the nationalities of the other men involved, but later said that they were "of various nationalities."

Recent study reveals catastrophic impact of fracking on US drinking water sources

Fracking contaminates drinking water
According to a recent study conducted at Duke University revealed that Hydraulic fracking is having a catastrophic impact on water supplies throughout the US. The findings of the study suggest that fracking is using far much more water than before, and putting a huge dent in the amount of drinkable water available in water supplies.

Hydraulic fracturing is a natural gas extraction method that has become extremely controversial for its environmental impacts. Fracking is the process of drilling down into the earth before a high-pressure water mixture is directed at the rock to release the gas inside. Water, sand, and chemicals are injected into the rock at high pressure, which allows the gas to flow out to the head of the well. Wastewater produced from this process is highly toxic and filled with a variety of chemicals.

In many cases, people who live near fracking sites have been able to set fire to the water and air that comes through their pipes. It has also been found to contaminate drinking water. Unfortunately, fracking is still somewhat popular publicly because people know very little about it and it is also popular politically because all of the politicians have a hand in it.

Due to an increased prevalence of seismic activity in the vicinity of fracking areas, many activists have pointed out that this process may cause earthquakes as well.

Comment: Without clean water we die. Water literally is life. Much of the drinking water in the US is contaminated with chemicals ranging from pesticides to pharmaceutical drugs, yet this fact is generally ignored until some major crisis (like Flint) bursts into the headlines:


Question

Is the collapse of the career politician nigh?

The prevailing consensus among political analysts in the United States about Donald Trump's victory in 2016 centers on the idea that career politicians in America have, over time, become divorced from the realities of day to day existence in America. Washington politicians seem less able to relate to individuals while relating to policies those individuals do not think are helping them.

This is playing out across the country with upstart candidates who have never been in politics convincing voters that they have a better understanding of what to do than career politicians who have dedicated their lives to public service. One of these races is happening in Oklahoma where political newcomer Kevin Stitt is in a runoff against long time Mayor of Oklahoma City, Mick Cornett.
