Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr revealed on Thursday that when his campaign uses the TeamKennedy email address to set up accounts on Instagram, they are automatically banned from Instagram for 180 days.

Kennedy Jr praised Twitter for allowing his campaign to have a voice, adding, "To silence a major political candidate is profoundly undemocratic. Social media is the modern equivalent of the town square. How can democracy function if only some candidates have access to it?"

In response, Twitter owner and CEO Elon Musk replied: "Would you like to do a Spaces discussion with me next week?"

In the span of just two weeks, nearly 30 children have vanished in Cleveland, sparking huge concern from a local police chief who said he hasn't seen anything like this in his 33-year career.

Newburgh Heights police chief John Majoy told reporters that as many as 27 children have been reported missing in the greater Cleveland area.
"It's a silent crime that happens right under our noses," he said.

"The problem is where are they? Where do they go? They can be in a drug house or farmed to prostitution or caught up in drug trafficking or gangs."
He called the number of missing children, whose ages range from 12 to 17, unprecedented when speaking to reporters.

Federal judge issues landmark decision in call for family court reform

© Cynthia HayensMikaela Haynes, 14, killed herself after a family court judge ruled she had to live with her father who had already admitted to molesting his oldest sister. Mikaela was a high honor student who adored animals, studied sign language so she could communicate with two elderly deaf neighbors and dreamed of becoming a pediatric surgeon specializing in facial deformities of children, hung herself from a tree.
In a landmark decision, a federal judge this week denied a court-appointed child advocate's motion to dismiss a wrongful death lawsuit against her. The lawsuit asks the court to hold her accountable for the suicide of 14-year-old Mikaela Haynes.

Family court reform advocates say they are nearly in disbelief at the ruling.

"This is a huge victory and a promising sign in what is an exhausting fight to bring awareness to the ugly truth that court-appointed advocates who are supposed to protect children instead put them in danger," Evita Tolu, the attorney who won the unprecedented ruling, told The Epoch Times.

Comment: Jennifer Williams belongs in prison.

Mysterious death of acquaintance of 'Aussie Cossack' Boikov - Boikov is living at Russian consulate after skipping court

James Walters, 42, was found dead on May 23 by police in Sydney's northern suburbs after being reported missing for 10 days.
A man who was a close associate of the ultra-nationalist pro-Putin supporter Simeon Boikov - known as the 'Aussie Cossack' - has been found dead by police.


Comment: For the legacy media 'ultra-nationalist' and 'far-right' are mostly used to smear people, rather than to be used as accurate descriptions, and they're particularly used against people with regards to issues like Russia's special operation in Ukraine, or vaccine mandates and lockdowns.


James Walters, 42, was found on May 23 by police in Sydney's northern suburbs, some 10 days after he was reported missing on May 13.

NSW Police told Daily Mail Australia police were satisfied the body was that of Mr Walters, who had last been seen in the north-west Sydney suburb of Chatswood.

'We had concerns for the man's welfare,' a police spokesperson said, adding officers had seen nothing to suggest the death was suspicious.

Comment: It's notable that, Boikov, an Australian citizen, is currently holed up in the Russian embassy. As for the death of his colleague, whether his death, his activism, and the relation to Boikov are merely coincidental, or are related to his death, remains to be seen.

When compared to other Western nations, it seems that there's is a rather vocal and visible group of Australians who have been featured in the national media over their support for Russia; less attention seems to be given to their denounciation of the West and its proxy war in Ukraine.

Evacuations and shelter-in-place orders remained in place for residents and businesses around a lightning-sparked tank fire that sent a plume of smoke over Lake Charles, Louisiana, on Saturday.

By evening, Louisiana State Police determined a lightning strike was the cause of the single-tank fire at the Calcasieu Refining Co. tank farm in Lake Charles shortly before 2 p.m., according to the department.

The company refines crude oil, operates a pipeline, and runs a barge transfer facility for oil products.

Comment: It's notable that there was a fire earlier in the week that wasn't related to the lightning strike. More so because of the seeming increase in disasters related to industrial facilities, particularly energy, these days: See also: US facing rolling blackouts this summer, energy corporation warns

The court also heard that Svetlana Plyushko (pictured) allegedly sexually abused the 10 children aged between 4 and 16 and forced them to take drugs before inviting around local paedophiles who paid to abuse them
A foster mum who rescued orphans from war-torn Ukraine has gone on trial for torture, sexual abuse and letting paedophiles pay to rape children in her care.

A court in the Polish city of Poznan has heard that Ukrainian Svetlana Plyushko regularly assaulted the children, forced them to put soiled nappies in their mouths and eat vomit.

It also heard that the 53-year-old allegedly sexually abused the 10 children aged between 4 and 16 and forced them to take drugs before inviting around local paedophiles who paid to abuse them.

Comment: Sometimes it certainly does seem like 'hell is empty and all the devils are here'.

It also seems that, whilst there are few areas, if any, free from such vassals of darkness, there are some regions, and there are periods (such as during times of conflict) where they seem to have become more concentrated:

Some consumers are calling for a boycott of PetSmart over their pride-themed pet merchandise and donation to a controversial K-12 group that works to implement gender ideology in schools.

The well-known pet store chain became the latest target of boycott calls after photos of this year's pride merchandise began circulating online, with consumers criticizing items such as the "Pride Dog Bikini" that "celebrates inclusion in a fun and fashionable way."

The pride pet line prompted Twitter users to begin posting messages such as "add PetSmart to the boycott list" and "#BoycottPetSmart."

"Provide your kitten with a colorful and amazing matching harness and leash while also reaffirming your belief in unconditional love," the description on a "rainbow butterfly" cat harness reads.

The company also touts their $200,000 donation to GLSEN, a K-12 education program known for supporting in-school child gender transition without parental consent, biological men competing in girls' sports, and incorporating gender ideology teachings in subjects like math.

NYT decries lack of 'kink' in children's movie

The New York Times has stirred online outrage by faulting Disney's new live-action remake of 'The Little Mermaid', a children's movie, for not including any "kink" in the storyline.

Times film critic Wesley Morris began his review by saying the movie had "noble intentions," dutifully checking various diversity boxes to gain approval. However, he added that Disney erred by trying too hard to avoid offending audiences: "Joy, fun, mystery risk, flavor, kink - they're missing."

Controversy over the review bubbled up earlier this week, when the newspaper posted a Twitter message promoting the piece. It came amid a wave of conservative boycotts against major corporations over alleged sexualization of children and promotion of transgender ideology.

US retailer Target, for instance, has lost more than $13 billion in market value over the past two weeks amid public pushback over a "Pride Month" campaign that featured merchandise for babies and other children.

FDIC: US bank deposits dropped by most in 39 years to start 2023

US banks lost $472 billion in deposits in the first quarter, according to a new quarterly report from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) that offers a comprehensive look at how the industry navigated its most challenging period since the 2008 financial crisis.

The deposit decline was the largest since the FDIC began collecting quarterly industry data in 1984 and marked the fourth consecutive quarter of industry outflows. The regulator tracks performance for 4,672 commercial banks and savings institutions.

The drop in deposits, which amounted to 2.5%, was largely due to movement by uninsured depositors who were above the $250,000-per-account level backstopped by the FDIC. They pulled $663 billion, while insured deposits actually increased by $255 billion.

The FDIC report covers a tumultuous period marked by an aggressive rise in interest rates and the failures of three banks in a matter of days, including Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank on March 10 and March 12.

First Republic later went down in the second quarter, on May 1, in what was the second-largest bank failure in US history.
