President Donald Trump filed suit Monday against the British Broadcasting Company, seeking more than $5 billion from the venerable news outlet over what he contends was deliberately misleading editing of a speech he gave on Jan. 6, 2021, as the Capitol riot was getting underway.

The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Miami, complains that the BBC “maliciously” strung together two comments Trump made more than 54 minutes apart in order to convey the impression that he’d urged his supporters to engage in violence as electoral votes were set to be tabulated by Congress.

Donald Trump spant twee rechtszaken aan tegen de BBC. De Amerikaanse president wil in totaal 10 miljard dollar (8,5 miljard euro) van de Britse omroep vanwege geknipte fragmenten in een documentaire waardoor het lijkt alsof hij oproept tot geweld.

I strongly believe that Spotify should be removed as a suggestion and added to the incumbent/boycott category due to the reasons already mentioned in the red warning box. I urge everyone to cancel their subscriptions and when you cancel they will ask why, please mention the reason you canceled is because Spotify gave billions to Joe Rogan who's basically a lie and propaganda factory.

Spotify is a pillar of support for the Trump regime. Spotify's CEO donated $150000 to Trump and hosted brunch for him. He also did the typical billionaire hissy fit threatening to leave Sweden unless they make tax cuts. He's just another right-wing billionaire and not worth your support.

> ❗️Israeli committee advances bill to permanently shut down foreign media outlets

A proposed law enabling the government to permanently close foreign media outlets in Israel advanced on Sunday after being approved by the Knesset National Security Committee.

The bill is intended to replace the 'Al Jazeera Law,' which was primarily used to authorize the closure of the Qatar-based broadcaster in Israel.

Unlike the law it would replace, the proposed bill would allow the government to shut down a media outlet without requiring judicial oversight.

Urban VPN is a particularly bad offender. It intercepts all your conversations with ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI bots (glad I don't use any), and sends them to the VPN vendor for resale. This is nuts.
