A newly released surveillance video from 2016 shows Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs kicking and dragging former girlfriend Cassie Ventura after forcefully pushing her to the ground at a hotel.

Conservative lawmakers in Florida and Texas won their fight to allow religious chaplains in public schools. Unfortunately, the Satanic Temple wants in on that. The Demons of the Satanic temple say they are not actually Satan worshipers. They are just non-theistic, and claim religion as invading public life. They can’t have it both ways.

Illegal immigrant crossings on America’s northern border with Canada are on track to break the previous record, which was set just last year. Customs and Border Patrol agents recorded 9,460 illegal crossings on the northern border thus far in the 2024 fiscal year, which began in October 2023. The figure is already nearing the record set by the 2023 fiscal year, when 10,021 illegal crossings were recorded. With five months remaining in the 2024 fiscal year and summer on its way, illegal crossings on the northern border are poised to surge past last year’s record. The Swanton Border Patrol Sector, which covers New Hampshire, Vermont, and parts of New York, has been one of the busiest areas on the northern border. Some residents along the northern border have resorted to carrying firearms to ensure their personal protection after witnessing groups of illegal immigrants coming across the border. The surge of illegal immigrants on the northern border comes as the United States has experienced record-breaking surges of illegal immigration under the Biden administration, with over 9.5 million nationwide encounters and 1.7 million estimated illegal immigrant gotaways recorded under his term. The drastic increase in illegal crossings on the southern border have resulted in some Border Patrol agents from northern sectors being reassigned to the south, leaving America’s border with Canada increasingly vulnerable. The foreign-born population present in the United States has also spiked to a new high under Biden at a whopping 51.6 million, an increase of 6.6 million since the Democrat took office. The increase has been primarily driven by illegal immigration.

Biden currently faces widespread disapproval among voters for his handling of the border crisis, with one recent poll finding that Americans trust former President Donald Trump more than the Democrat incumbent to handle immigration, while other polls have found that Americans are in favor of Trump’s plan to deport illegal immigrants.

In the throws of the 2024 presidential election between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, social media giant Meta, the parent company of Instagram and Facebook, has taken steps to suppress political content on its platforms. The new feature rolled out earlier this year prevents any content flagged as “political” from being recommended to users on Instagram.  Posts “about laws, elections, or social topics” will not not be displayed in any of the platform’s curated recommendation systems, which drives a significant amount of follower growth for platforms.  The company claims the filter is not meant to limit the exposure of any candidate or publisher specifically, and is instead meant to insulate users from politically charged content in general. “Our goal is to preserve the ability for people to choose to interact with political content, while respecting each person’s appetite for it,” Adam Mosseri, head of Instagram, said. According to Pew Research, half of all American adults got their news from social media – last year 30% of all American adults consumed news on Facebook at least “sometimes” and 16% got their news from Instagram.  The filter was automatically implemented for all accounts by default, and has to be manually disabled by each user. In order to disable the filter, you’ll need to go to your profile page and tap the icon on the uppermost right to open “Settings and Activity.” From there, you’ll need to scroll down to the “what you see” section, where you’ll find “content preferences.” Click “political content,” and then you’ll need to select the “don’t limit political content from people you don’t follow” option. Photo by about.instagram.com As of now the feature does not appear to have been implemented on Facebook, which is still the most popular platform for online news. The Daily Wire has historically been one of the top publishers on the platform – last year it was revealed that officials from the Biden administration pressured Meta to redirect traffic away from right-leaning outlets, and specifically singled out The Daily Wire as a site they wanted to censor. The policy has been criticized as overly broad – the filter is applied to all accounts by default and has to manually be disabled. Meta has also been criticized for limiting voter access to information about candidates and causes during an election year.     X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, has taken a strong anti-censorship stance since it was purchased by Elon Musk in 2022, and it is the fifth most popular platform for consuming news among the social media giants, after Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, and controversial Chinese-owned TikTok, which is set to be banned in the United States early next year if parent company ByteDance doesn’t sell it.
