Several thousand Italians marched through the capital on Saturday demanding remigration, strict border control, and a decisive break with the mass-immigration model that has transformed Italy without meaningful public consent.

The demonstration, according to a report from Remix News, was organized by the citizen initiative "Remigration and Reconquest," which has built support around a legislative proposal focused on illegal migrant returns, deportations, and national recovery. Marchers carried Italian flags and rallied behind a message that is now spreading across Europe: immigration must not only be slowed — it must be reversed.

Organizers say their initiative has collected roughly 50,000 signatures in support of the proposal, while other reports cited more than 150,000. Either way, the campaign has cleared the threshold needed to force Italy's political class to confront a question it has long tried to avoid.

Comment: The real gun safety . . . .


Alessandra Coote was walking on a trail with her 2-year-old daughter and dog two-and-a-half years ago when a man began yelling at her and threatened to kill her dog. When the petite single mom made it back to her Utah home, she decided she needed a firearm for protection.

A few months later, while living in what she described as a "shady part of town," a homeless man threatened her. After that encounter, she began regularly carrying a firearm under Utah's Constitutional Carry law.

Coote, who just graduated this spring from the University of Utah, says carrying the gun has given her the confidence to feel safe in public. "It's been life-changing," she told RealClearInvestigations. Although she has never had to draw or fire the weapon, she has faced a threatening individual when she was armed, but stopped the attack by merely letting the man know she was carrying.

Comment: Switzerland, with a well-armed citizenry, is the model:

New study reveals how the Left turned mental illness into a political identity

Something researchers have observed for decades is finally crystallizing into a measurable cultural phenomenon. Political conservatives consistently report higher levels of happiness, better mental health, and stronger psychological well-being than their liberal counterparts. A new study published in Political Behavior takes that finding several steps further, arguing that mental illness has begun functioning as its own political identity, and that identity clusters most tightly on the left.

Columbia University's magazine originally flagged the underlying trend back in 2023, reporting that "American adults who identify as politically liberal have long reported lower levels of happiness and psychological well-being than conservatives," Based on the data of four different studies, researchers from the Universities of Florida and Toronto, found an explanation: conservatives tend to exhibit greater personal agency, religiosity, moral clarity, self-worth, and a more optimistic general disposition.

The Dutch Covid inquiry is not looking for the truth

Dotch covid inquiry
Across the world, the response to Covid looked strangely alike: the same lockdowns, the same shuttered schools and businesses, the same insistence that there was only one responsible course and that to question it was to put lives at risk. Country after country moved in near lockstep.

To me, that uniformity remains one of the most troubling features of those years. Measures so similar, so sweeping, and adopted so quickly are difficult to explain as dozens of governments independently reach the same conclusion. Whatever the truth behind that coordination, the Covid era cannot be understood one nation at a time. What was done to people's freedoms — and how each country now chooses to examine it, or to look away — concerns us all. What follows is one country's reckoning.

From a distance, the Netherlands can look like an open society settling its accounts with the pandemic.

As Washington and Tehran prepare to sign a historic peace agreement, many Israelis fear the deal preserves Iran's military power and sets the stage for the next war.

After more than three and a half months of fighting and intense back-and-forth negotiations, US President Donald Trump announced that Washington and Tehran, under Pakistani mediation, have reached a final agreement to end hostilities between them.

The deal is expected to be signed in Geneva on June 19.

According to reports, the memorandum of understanding stipulates that upon signing, both sides will declare an immediate, complete, and permanent end to all hostilities across the region, including in Lebanon. The blockade on Iran would be lifted, Washington would commit not to interfere in Iran's domestic affairs, refrain from increasing troop levels in the region, and release half of Iran's frozen assets, an amount totaling approximately $12 billion.In exchange, Iran would reaffirm its commitment to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and confirm that it will never produce, develop or acquire nuclear weapons. Tehran would also reopen the Strait of Hormuz to commercial maritime traffic within 30 days, according to arrangements specified by Iran. Israel has not taken the news lightly.

Major U-turn: Swedish parliament abolishes permanent residence visas for migrants

The Swedish Parliament has officially passed a government bill to end permanent residence permits, which will offer a vastly stricter approach to the country's immigration policy. Under the new legislation, the government "eliminates the possibility of granting permanent residence permits to asylum seekers" and other immigrant groups specified in the reform.

Set to take effect on July 12, the updated rules dictate that affected individuals will now only be eligible to receive temporary residence permits. However, those who currently hold valid permanent residence will keep their existing status and remain unaffected by the change.

While temporary permits have become standard practice in Sweden over recent years, this reform goes significantly further by preventing specific groups from converting those temporary stays into permanent ones. Through this measure, the Swedish Executive aims to tighten its oversight regarding the long-term status of foreigners within its borders.

Legislation would exempt platforms that can prove they have safeguards for children in place.

Canada's government has introduced legislation to parliament that could ban children younger than 16 from having social media accounts unless the companies show they can make their platforms safe.

Ottawa is joining a growing global effort to tighten online safety. Canadian government officials said social media platforms can obtain an exemption if they have put in place sufficient safeguards.

"We are failing our children. Enough is enough," said Marc Miller, Canada's culture minister. "We need basic protection in place."

The legislation covers seven types of harmful content including content that induces children to harm themselves, content that incites violence and foments hatred and non-consensual intimate images.

A digital safety commission will be created. Criteria for what exemptions would look like will be announced at a later date. Miller said setting up the regulator could take up to 18 months. Miller said platforms will need to prove they are safe. Age verification will also be established.

4 Thing's you CANNOT say about the UK's 'Social Media Ban'

The UK's "Social Media Ban" is official - Here's how you should talk about it.
Social Media Ban

It's official, the United Kingdom is getting its own Australia-style "social media ban" for everyone under 16.

In fact it's going to be "Australia-plus" according to insiders, with some kind of 'curfew' expected to part of the final roll-out.


Yes, Sir Keir Starmer has been sitting on that pot for quite sometime and finally decided to...well, you know.

The total list of platforms the proposed ban will target hasn't yet been released, but it is known that YouTube, X (Twitter), Meta (Facebook), Snapchat, TikTok and Instagram will be hit, and that some others - including BlueSky - will not be.

Despite claims to be empowered to move "speedily", the ban isn't expected to come into force until next spring, which gives a nice little window for a few things to potentially happen.

But I'm not here to analyze the ban or speculate on agendas or next steps.

The ban is announced, it will likely happen, and it's on all of us to resist it, and the first stage of resistance is acknowledging the real problem.

How we talk about and argue against these things matters. - A lot.

Because discourse that doesn't acknowledge or understand the real nature of the problem can unwittingly aid the push for authoritarianism.

Already we're seeing the public discussion around the ban be steered, either intentionally or otherwise, in directions that actually support the government position.

So, here's four arguments you must NOT make against the social media ban.

An investigation has been launched

A "suspicious" fire broke out at the Pacific Palisades office of Spencer Pratt's crystals company, he revealed to The California Post.

The Los Angeles mayoral candidate confirmed that the office, located inside the Highlands Circle complex at 1515 Palisades Dr., belonged to him.

The Los Angeles Fire Department's Arson Unit was notified, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation.

"I want to be careful to not compromise an arson investigation, but this incident is very suspicious," Pratt told The Post, just hours after his bombshell post-election video dropped.

Comment: Yeah, this might have annoyed some folks:

Oh, what a difference a decade makes.

Back in 2016, Bill Gates' public image still sported the saintly halo that the massive PR budget of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation afforded him.

He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Obama for his philanthropic work in medicine, science and education.
