In an interview with Hungarian news channel M1, a woman says she left Sweden after 40 years because of increasing migrant crime.

The woman now lives in Hungary and according to her, "There is no safety at all" in Sweden and "things have gotten worse". She says she is not the only one leaving the country; others in Sweden are doing the same and "Left the country as well".

The woman now lives in Hungary, a country that is "the safest" because of its laws and migration policies, she says.

Two students at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School have been arrested for bringing knives to school. A third student was arrested and hospitalized after making threats while brandishing an imitation firearm on Snapchat.

Jordan Salter, 18, reportedly poured a bowl of cereal on another student's head after he made a sexual comment to her friend. Salter then "reached inside of her bra and pulled out a 2 inch knife" when the boy attempted to lean in close to her, according to an arrest form seen by CBS News. She was arrested Tuesday morning.

Gavin Stricker, 19, was arrested later that afternoon for allegedly brandishing a knife on the school bus Monday afternoon. "A nine inch knife was found in his backpack. Stricker was placed into custody and transported to JARC," Broward County Sheriff's office wrote in his arrest form. Stricker has been released from the Juvenile Assessment Center and is scheduled to appear at a court hearing on April 23.

Border patrol agents are refusing to hand over illegal immigrants with felony warrants to police in California because they can't be sure local authorities will return the criminal aliens to federal custody, according to a top border security official in San Diego.

Rodney Scott, the chief patrol agent in the Border Patrol's San Diego Sector, said earlier this month that California's statewide sanctuary law was undermining normal cooperation between his agency and local law enforcement.

In a little-reported declaration in support of the Department of Justice's March 6 lawsuit against California, Scott recalled multiple instances in which a Border Patrol agent in the San Diego sector determined that releasing a criminal alien to a local law enforcement would likely result in the person being released without notification to federal authorities.

An underground conservative newspaper at Taylor University was recently pressured into temporarily suspending publication for striking "fear in some students."

The anonymous paper, called Excalibur, was launched in February by a group of professors as a means to articulate "conservative stances boldy, extensively, and without fear of editorial filter," according to a copy of the print edition obtained by Campus Reform.

"We are Taylor University faculty, staff, and students who heartily affirm the historic orthodox theological doctrines, as expressed in the Apostles creed and other classical ecumenical creeds," the founders of the publication declared, claiming that the current campus publications "offer insufficient means to counter leftist trends."

Sinan Antoon wrote a powerful op-ed about the effects of the Iraq war for The New York Times. Here is his conclusion:

No one knows for certain how many Iraqis have died as a result of the invasion 15 years ago. Some credible estimates put the number at more than one million. You can read that sentence again. The invasion of Iraq is often spoken of in the United States as a "blunder," or even a "colossal mistake." It was a crime. Those who perpetrated it are still at large. Some of them have even been rehabilitated thanks to the horrors of Trumpism and a mostly amnesiac citizenry. (A year ago, I watched Mr. Bush on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, dancing and talking about his paintings.) The pundits and "experts" who sold us the war still go on doing what they do. I never thought that Iraq could ever be worse than it was during Saddam's reign, but that is what America's war achieved and bequeathed to Iraqis.

A California teacher filmed describing US military personnel as "dumb s**ts" in an astonishing rant has been fired. The decision to sack Gregory Salcido came after a vote by El Rancho Unified School District Board.

Pending a successful appeal, Gregory Salcido, a Pico Rivera City council member and teacher, will not be allowed to return to his position at the school. It comes after the California school board voted unanimously on Tuesday to oust Salcido for comments he made to students about the US military last January, reports the Los Angeles Times.

In a secretly-recorded video on January 26, Salcido reportedly described US military personnel as the "lowest of our low" in terms of intelligence. He also joked about previous military campaigns and the US armed forces' inability to "beat the Vietnamese" during the infamous land war in Asia.

A study conducted by the Coalition for Prosperous America found that President Donald Trump's tariffs on aluminum and steel will add roughly 19,000 jobs.

The group found that Trump's 25 percent tariff on steel imports and 10 percent tariff on aluminum will add roughly 19,000 jobs, offsetting potential jobs losses from other sectors of the economy.

The organization found that the tariff would decrease the economy by roughly $1.4 billion, or one percent of American gross domestic product (GDP).

When the late anti-Apartheid activist Nelson Mandela emerged from prison and became South Africa's first black president, he carefully steered the country away from the radicalism of the African National Congress's Marxist past and toward a policy which embraced moderation and responsibility in international affairs. Rather than precipitate conflict, he sought to mediate and resolve. South Africa gained widespread respect as a country embracing peace and looking toward the future rather than catalyzing the radical causes which have sown conflict around the continent and wider world.

Alas, Mandela was unable to make his changes permanent. After his five-year presidential term ended in 1999, and especially after his 2013 death, the leaders who followed Mandela-Thabo Mbeki, and especially Jacob Zuma and now Cyril Ramaphosa - have spent South Africa's moral capital shilling for increasingly radical regimes, terrorist groups, and causes.

In December 2017, for example, the ANC both downgraded its embassy in Israel and invited representatives of Hamas to its party conference. While the Palestinian Authority exist because it in theory foreswore terrorism and recognized Israel's right to exist, Hamas opposes the two-state solution and seeks not only the eradication of Israel, but also genocide against Jews. South Africa has also proven itself a central location for the acquisition and smuggling of sensitive technology to Hezbollah, another terror group. Students affiliated with the ANC's student union at the University of Witwatersrand praised Hitler and waved Hezbollah flags. Bilateral ties between South Africa and Iran are at an all-time high and Iran has recruited Palestinians in South Africa in order to conduct terrorism against Israel.

Sandy Parakilas, a former Facebook platform operations manager, claimed the company's "horrifying" misuse of user data was routine, and that Facebook preferred to have "no idea" what third parties were doing with the freely available data.

In their report, the Guardian noted that "hundreds of millions of Facebook users are likely to have had their private information harvested by companies that exploited the same terms as the firm that collected data and passed it on to Cambridge Analytica."


"My concerns were that all of the data that left Facebook servers to developers could not be monitored by Facebook, so we had no idea what developers were doing with the data," claimed Parakilas. "It has been painful watching... Because I know that they could have prevented it."

"Once the data left Facebook servers there was not any control, and there was no insight into what was going on," he continued, adding, "Facebook was in a stronger legal position if it didn't know about the abuse that was happening."

If you spend any time on Twitter, you'll probably be familiar with the latest pathetic attempt to defend and insulate the U.S. status quo from criticism. It centers around the usage of an infantile and meaningless term, "whataboutism."

Let's begin with one particularly absurd accusation of "whataboutism" promoted by NPR last year:

When O'Reilly countered that "Putin is a killer," Trump responded, "There are a lot of killers. You got a lot of killers. What, you think our country is so innocent?"

This particular brand of changing the subject is called "whataboutism" - a simple rhetorical tactic heavily used by the Soviet Union and, later, Russia. And its use in Russia helps illustrate how it could be such a useful tool now, in America. As Russian political experts told NPR, it's an attractive tactic for populists in particular, allowing them to be vague but appear straight-talking at the same time.

The idea behind whataboutism is simple: Party A accuses Party B of doing something bad. Party B responds by changing the subject and pointing out one of Party A's faults - "Yeah? Well what about that bad thing you did?" (Hence the name.)

It's not exactly a complicated tactic - any grade-schooler can master the "yeah-well-you-suck-too-so-there" defense. But it came to be associated with the USSR because of the Soviet Union's heavy reliance upon whataboutism throughout the Cold War and afterward, as Russia.
