The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory warning in Alaska for the first time ever. “This weekend, parts of the state including areas around Fairbanks are expected to climb into the mid-80s, with some locations potentially nearing 90°F,” Rawsalerts wrote. #BREAKING: For the first time in history, the National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory for Alaska as high temperatures grip the region. This weekend, parts of the state including areas around Fairbanks are expected to climb into the mid-80s, with some locations… pic.twitter.com/yVI7zQQosU — R A W S A L E R T S (@rawsalerts) June 14, 2025 Per FOX Weather: Until recently, Fairbanks and other Alaskan forecast offices didn’t have the ability to issue such advisories, instead relying on Special Weather Statements to alert the public about sudden heat. That changed on June 2, when adjusted procedures granted Alaskan offices the authority to use the Heat advisory product, aligning them more closely with practices used across the Lower 48. The criteria for when an alert is issued vary across the Last Frontier, with some areas along the North Slope needing only to reach 75 degrees, while Fairbanks’ threshold is a warmer 85 degrees. The NWS office in Fairbanks anticipates several upcoming days will hit at least 85 degrees, so a Heat Advisory will go into effect for the city’s more than 30,000 residents. The National Weather Service office in Fairbanks, Alaska, has issued a heat advisory for Sunday. This is the first of its kind ever issued for the state of Alaska – but there's a catch. https://t.co/IdWmWocGeZ — The Weather Channel (@weatherchannel) June 13, 2025 From The Weather Channel: Don’t scoff at these temperatures quite yet. In the same way that only a couple of inches of snow can cripple the South while Alaskans wouldn’t even bat an eye, these temperatures, though seemingly mundane for many in the continental U.S., could be dangerous for those in Alaska. Places are built to withstand their climate – which, for Alaska, is on the colder end of the spectrum. As Alaska-based climatologist Brian Brettschneider pointed out on the social media platform Bluesky, many buildings, such as homes and schools, are built to retain heat – which, while ideal in the brutal winters, could pose a major threat as temperatures begin to rise. And most don’t have air conditioning, either. While it’s tempting to spend time outside once the temperatures warm up, it’s important to stay safe in the heat. Heat stress is the leading weather-related cause of death.

The Sick Care Industrial Complex of the USA makes sure that all conventional food is doused in deathly chemicals that make Big Ag billions while causing disease and disorder for the humans that consume the residuals. Though banned in the European Union for obvious reasons, the USA approves deadly Diquat pesticide that injures human lungs, the liver, the kidneys, and eviscerates beneficial bacteria in the gut that’s essential for good health. That’s not even all. Diquat also interferes with nutrient absorption and triggers chronic inflammation, the driving force and catapult of nearly every disease and disorder known to mankind. Go figure. Article by S.D. Wells, republished with permission from Naturalnews.com Banned in Europe, Still Used in U.S.: Diquat Herbicide Linked to Gut Damage and Organ Toxicity A widely used herbicide banned in the European Union but still permitted in the U.S. has been found to severely damage the intestines and trigger harmful chain reactions in vital organs, according to a new scientific review. The study, published in Frontiers in Pharmacology in May, analyzed over 100 studies on diquat, revealing its ability to weaken the gut barrier, kill beneficial bacteria, and fuel chronic inflammation—effects that may spread to the liver, kidneys, and lungs. As scrutiny grows over pesticide safety, researchers warn that diquat’s risks may be more systemic than previously understood, raising urgent questions about regulatory oversight and the need for safer alternatives. Diquat, a herbicide chemically related to the notorious paraquat, has long been studied for its effects on the liver and kidneys. However, the new review highlights the intestines as a primary target. The chemical disrupts nutrient absorption by damaging intestinal villi—tiny projections critical for digestion—while generating reactive oxygen molecules that erode the gut’s protective lining. This breakdown allows toxins to leak into the bloodstream, potentially triggering inflammation in distant organs. “The core mechanism of its toxicity involves reactive oxygen species-induced oxidative stress,” the researchers wrote, noting that this process not only harms the gut barrier but also imbalances the microbiome, reducing beneficial bacteria like Lactobacillus while promoting harmful microbes. Such disruptions may contribute to broader organ dysfunction, though human studies are still lacking. Diquat shares structural and functional similarities with paraquat, a herbicide linked to Parkinson’s disease and banned in over 70 countries. While diquat is considered less acutely toxic, its persistence in soil and water—lasting up to 10 days—raises environmental concerns. The EU, Switzerland, and the U.K. have prohibited its use, but the U.S. continues to allow applications on crops like potatoes, cotton, and sugarcane, as well as for drying animal feed. The review coincides with mounting legal and scientific challenges to pesticide safety. Manufacturers face lawsuits over health impacts, while critics accuse the industry of downplaying risks. In Brazil, where paraquat was banned in 2020, diquat use has surged, particularly among small-scale farmers who often lack protective gear. From Gut to Organs: A Dangerous Cascade The study suggests diquat’s gut damage may initiate a “gut-organ axis” effect, spreading harm to other systems: Kidneys: Acute injury from cell membrane damage and scarring. Liver: Mitochondrial disruption leading to cell death and inflammation. Lungs: Oxidative stress damaging respiratory tissue. Researchers speculate these effects could contribute to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), a life-threatening condition, though further study is needed. Calls for Action and Alternatives The authors urge more human epidemiological studies, improved detoxification strategies, and better models to assess long-term, low-dose exposure. “In-depth investigation of its toxicological mechanisms remains essential,” they wrote, emphasizing the need for solutions in contaminated areas and clinical management of poisoning cases. As evidence mounts, advocates argue for stricter regulations and a shift toward natural pest control methods. For now, diquat’s continued use in the U.S. underscores a stark divide in global pesticide policy—and a growing urgency to reassess its risks.

In October 2024, economist Professor Gigi Foster delivered a TEDx talk at the University of New South Wales titled The Manipulator’s Playbook — a searing indictment of how fear and conformity are weaponized by those in power to silence dissent. Her message was clear: defend independent thought, challenge authority, and reject the manufactured narratives used to control populations. Yet, despite meeting TEDx’s editorial standards, her talk was abruptly censored by TED’s U.S. headquarters, and it was deemed too dangerous for public consumption. This suppression isn’t just hypocrisy — it’s proof that even platforms claiming to champion “radical ideas” now serve as gatekeepers for the elite. Article by Lance D. Johnson, republished with permission from Naturalnews.com Key points: TED rejected Professor Gigi Foster’s talk on pandemic-era censorship and government overreach, despite her evidence-backed arguments. The talk exposed how fear and love are exploited to manipulate public behavior, drawing parallels to historical tragedies like the Cultural Revolution and Nazi Germany. TED’s censorship reveals a broader trend: Institutions once praised for free speech now enforce ideological conformity under the guise of “community guidelines.” Foster’s case highlights the urgent need for independent platforms that allow dissenting voices to challenge mainstream narratives. When ideas become too dangerous to platform Foster’s talk (hosted on Rumble) confronted the systemic marginalization of dissent during crises, exemplified by the Covid-19 scandal. Her framing aligns with historical precedents — like the Cultural Revolution and Nazi Germany — where dissenters were recast as existential threats to justify authoritarian measures. The so-called pandemic saw critics of lockdowns and vaccines branded as “granny killers” or “far-right extremists,” a tactic designed to sideline debate through moral panic rather than through facts and evidence. TED’s rejection of Foster’s talk underscores a paradox: Institutions ostensibly dedicated to “ideas worth spreading” now police ideological boundaries under the guise of “community guidelines.” The justification — claims of “polarizing language” or “attacking public health leaders” — reveals a deeper intolerance for challenges to institutional orthodoxy. This mirrors the speaker’s observation that crises (terrorism, climate change, pandemics) are leveraged to expand control, with dissent pathologized as dangerous. Foster’s case exemplifies how platforms, once gateways for radical thought, now act as enforcers of a narrowing Overton Window. The suppression of Foster’s talk reflects a broader trend where institutions prioritize narrative control over intellectual rigor, betraying their original missions under pressure to conform to centralized power structures. A bureaucracy that cannot handle dissent TED’s bureaucratic rejection process — which demands “additional evidence” for Foster’s claims, only to dismiss peer-reviewed studies included in her speech — exposes the hollow performative aspects of institutional “fact-checking.” The organization acknowledged her arguments were “compelling” yet still deemed them inadmissible, illustrating how systems theory’s “tipping point” manifests: Institutions double down on control when their legitimacy is questioned, even as their contradictions become untenable. Foster’s speech highlights this well: “Expert virologists, akin to Orwell’s pigs, replaced unreliable politicians… [but] displayed human flaws: mistakes ordinary individuals would avoid.” Foster’s critique of pandemic policies — backed by data on lockdown harms and censorship — threatened the facade of technocratic infallibility. TED’s response mirrors the pandemic-era shift where “the narrative blurred into facts,” as dissent was erased not through refutation but exclusion. In this truth, bureaucracies increasingly function as ideological filters, weaponizing proceduralism to silence dissent while maintaining a veneer of neutrality. This aligns with Foster’s concerns that “coercive measures breed more fear, perpetuating the cycle until totalitarianism emerges.” The antidote: Defending diversity of thought Foster’s call to “celebrate forums where people are allowed to think critically” urges local, human-scale solutions that bypass corporatized control. Her advocacy for grassroots dialogues and alternative institutions (e.g., Academia Libera Mentis) mirrors examples like community-supported agriculture (CSA) or local currencies — systems that reclaim agency from centralized power. Similarly, Foster urges epistemic humility — rejecting top-down “truths” in favor of open debate. Her historical analogies reveal a pattern: elites exploit fear and love to demand sacrifices (lockdowns, dehumanization), but dissent disrupts this manipulation. Key Insight: Resilience lies in decentralized networks (local currencies, CSAs, independent academia) that prioritize human connection over institutional dogma. Foster’s censorship by TED epitomizes the thesis of her own speech: “The coronavirus crisis did not arise out of thin air but fit into a series of escalating responses to societal fears.” Institutions, fearing loss of control, now conflate dissent with danger. Yet history shows this always backfires — whether in Nazi Germany’s collapse or the post-Covid reckoning unraveling with populations becoming aware of lockdown harms, vaccine passports and digital control, and vaccine damage. TED’s cowardice reveals a truth Foster articulated well: “The most dangerous ideas are those that expose how power really works.” The antidote is building systems where power cannot silence them. TED’s censorship proves one thing: the most dangerous ideas are those that expose how power really works. In the end, Foster’s call to action was simple: protect forums where dissent is encouraged, not punished. Grassroots movements, independent media, and open dialogues are vital to resisting elite manipulation. “What will always win in the end,” she said, “is love, joy, confidence, tolerance, and an unshakeable belief in the infinite potential of every unique individual.” But these values only prevail if we refuse to let fear divide us.

If I were Colorado Sec. of State Jena Griswold I would not be sleeping great recently after receiving a demand from Trump’s DOJ to turn over “all records” related to the 2024 election. I should make clear everyone is innocent until proven guilty, but this does NOT look good for Colorado! The sweeping demand is being called completely unprecedented: NEW: Voting officials say they’ve never seen a demand like the one the Trump Justice Department sent to Colorado last month. https://t.co/4sbB0GH9uI — Ben Swasey (@benswasey) June 11, 2025 Here’s everything we know so far: DOJ Demands Colorado Election Data: On May 12, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) asked Colorado’s secretary of state for all records related to the 2024 federal elections and any remaining from 2020 — an unusually broad request. Concerns About Scope: Election officials and legal experts described the request as “unprecedented” and overly broad, potentially including voter registrations, ballots, and voting equipment data. Possible Link to Tina Peters Case: Some suspect the request is tied to the prosecution of Tina Peters, a Trump ally jailed for unauthorized access to voting equipment. Trump has called her an “innocent Political Prisoner” and urged DOJ intervention. Griswold Criticizes the Request: Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold, a Democrat, called the DOJ letter a threat to democracy and accused the Trump-era DOJ of weaponizing the federal government. DOJ Under New Leadership: The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division is now led by Harmeet Dhillon, a former Trump campaign legal adviser, who was confirmed in April 2025. The division has shifted focus from voting rights to voter fraud enforcement. Request Followed Trump Executive Order: Trump signed a March 25 executive order mandating more aggressive oversight of voter rolls and data-sharing between federal agencies and states. RNC and Dhillon Law Group Send Parallel Requests: Around the same time, the Dhillon Law Group — Dhillon’s former firm — sent similar voter data requests to 48 states on behalf of the Republican National Committee (RNC), raising questions about potential overlap with government efforts. Other States on Alert: Officials in states like New Mexico worry they will soon face similar data demands. Many express concern about re-litigating the 2020 election and what the information might be used for. DOJ Response and Legal Position: DOJ has declined to release the complaint that triggered the request but claims it is acting within federal law and privacy guidelines. Colorado Responds: The state has already sent publicly available voter files and history datasets, but it is unclear if the DOJ considers this sufficient. Someone sounds scared Trump’s DOJ makes sweeping demand for Colorado election data : NPR https://t.co/yrt30GU7um — Patrick Byrne (@PatrickByrne) June 12, 2025 Local Denver7 stunningly reports that all records from the 2020 election have been destroyed: The U.S. Department of Justice is demanding that Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold turn over “all records” related to the 2024 federal elections, a request many election experts call unprecedented. Denver7 is working to find out why the DOJ wants the records. Election leaders across the state say they are still trying to make sense of the request. “Well, it’s certainly an unusual request,” said Matt Crane, the executive director of the Colorado County Clerk’s Association. “I’ve been in elections here in Colorado for 25 years. I don’t remember any request from the federal government this expansive coming in.” Crane said the DOJ’s request for records is so broad, it could mean many things. “It could be anything from voter registration information, voter turnout information. It could be information from the voting system access and activity logs from inside the voting system software. It could be the actual ballots themselves,” said Crane. In its letter to the state, which NPR obtained, the DOJ said it had received a complaint about Colorado’s election records retention. The DOJ also asked the Secretary of State’s Office to retain records it still has from the 2020 election. According to Crane, Colorado law requires election records to be maintained for 25 months, which is three months longer than the 22 months required under federal law. Either way, he said most 2020 election records are probably gone. “Most, if not all, counties have destroyed all of those records now from the 2020 election,” said Crane. “Now, certainly from the 2024 election, counties are still in the process of retaining those until that retention period expires.” Denver7 followed up with the DOJ on Thursday and asked why they were seeking the election records. Two department spokespeople told Denver7 they had no comment. You can read the full letter here:

Fox News reporter Trey Yingst and his crew came under fire while reporting live from Tel Aviv, Israel, during a missile barrage from Iran. Iran launched 100 ballistic missiles at Israel, but Israeli defenses intercepted most—only 5 to 7 got through. The crew had to evacuate immediately as missiles exploded nearby; video footage captured people shouting to move. Yingst stated it was the most intense attack he’d seen in seven years covering Israel. Several people were injured in Tel Aviv by shrapnel—five were hospitalized (four minor, one moderate), and four others were treated for anxiety. Photos show major destruction, including shattered vehicles and emergency crews operating under floodlights. President Trump commented that Iran “was hit ten times worse than they thought they would be,” suggesting Israel’s strike was extremely effective. Trump added Iran “wasn’t ready to negotiate” before, but may be reconsidering after this. Israeli strikes reportedly targeted Iran’s top nuclear and military leadership, possibly including 90% of their key nuclear scientists. In response, Iran’s Supreme Leader threatened revenge, vowing to bring Israel “to ruin” and promising there would be no forgiveness for the strike.
