    EUROPEAN UNION Slams Porn Sites: Outrage Grows Over Child Safety Failures

    EUROPEAN UNION Slams Porn Sites: Outrage Grows Over Child Safety Failures

    — The European Union is cracking down on major porn sites like Pornhub, Stripchat, XNXX, and XVideos. Officials say these websites are not doing enough to keep kids safe from adult content. The main concern is weak age checks that let minors slip through the cracks.

    Regulators also claim the sites have failed to protect users’ privacy and have not done proper risk checks to stop harm to young people. If found guilty under the Digital Services Act, these companies could face huge fines — up to six percent of their yearly global income.

    There’s no deadline for when this probe will end. The investigation could even widen as more evidence comes in.

    In a separate move, the EU stripped Stripchat of its “Very Large Online Platform” status — a sign that Europe’s leaders are getting tough on Big Tech’s biggest players.

    NO SHOCKING Financial News Rocks Markets on MAY 22

    — May 22, 2025, passed quietly for investors. No major financial news or market-moving events hit the headlines. Most updates still point back to March and April.

    One of the last big stories came from Japan’s Financial Services Agency in March. They plan to update their laws so crypto assets count as financial products. Other business and regulation news also comes from earlier this spring.

    For now, there are no urgent developments shaking up the markets or economy today. We’ll keep watching for any changes that could affect your money or investments.

    CARGO SHIP Disaster Sparks Fears: Israeli Strikes and China’s Bold Space Mission Rock the World

    — A cargo ship flying a Liberian flag, MSC ELSA 3, flipped over near Kerala, India on May 25. The ship was loaded with 640 containers, including dangerous chemicals. This accident has people worried about safety at sea and possible harm to the environment.

    India’s weather service said the southwest monsoon arrived early this year — eight days ahead of schedule. Experts think this sudden weather change may have played a part in the cargo ship disaster.

    In the Middle East, Israeli drones killed four Hezbollah fighters in southern Lebanon. This happened even though there was supposed to be a ceasefire since last November. These strikes are raising tensions in an already troubled region.

    At the same time, China is getting ready to launch its first mission to study and collect samples from an asteroid close to Earth. In Europe, leaders agreed to end most economic sanctions on Syria except for those linked to security issues — a signal that some countries may be changing their approach toward Syria’s government.

    TRUMP, XI, Putin Power Play: Why the World Holds Its Breath for a “Yalta 20” Summit

    — Talk has heated up about a possible meeting between Donald Trump, Xi Jinping, and Vladimir Putin. Some people compare it to the famous Yalta Conference where world leaders once shaped history. But so far, there’s been no sign these three will meet face-to-face.

    America faces tough pressure from both China and Russia. Each country pushes its own agenda and tests how strong the U.S. really is on the world stage. Even with rumors of big talks, deep mistrust keeps them apart.

    Some experts say a summit could bring calm to today’s tense global climate. Others warn that if America looks weak at the table, our influence could slip away fast.

    For now, these leaders keep moving their pieces behind closed doors — never together in one room. The world waits and wonders if American leadership can hold steady as threats grow from every direction.

    CHINA CHEMICAL Blast Shocks World: Fears Rise Over Global Unrest

    CHINA CHEMICAL Blast Shocks World: Fears Rise Over Global Unrest

    — A huge explosion at a chemical plant in China killed at least five people. Videos online show the disaster’s scale, but Chinese officials have not said where it happened or what caused it. Many are now questioning China’s safety standards and how they handle emergencies.

    At the same time, Sudan faces a deadly cholera outbreak that could make its crisis even worse. In Gaza, crowds rushed a US-backed aid site as food and supplies run low.

    Back in America, the Trump administration plans to pull $100 million from Harvard University. This move has sparked debate about whether elite schools should get so much federal money.

    Meanwhile, Russian troops are moving forward in northeast Ukraine to create a buffer zone — another sign of growing global tension. From Canada’s political drama to protests in Zimbabwe and violence in Jerusalem, unrest is spreading across the world.

    TRUMP’S Bold Warning: EU Faces Painful 50% Trade Tariff Showdown

    TRUMP’S Bold Warning: EU Faces Painful 50% Trade Tariff Showdown

    — President Trump has put the European Union on notice. He warned that if trade talks stall, the EU could get slapped with a massive 50 percent tariff by June 1st. Trump called the EU “very difficult to deal with” and posted on Truth Social that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen asked him for more time.

    Trump agreed to move the deadline back to July 9, 2025. He said it was his “privilege” and promised talks would start soon. Von der Leyen said she had a “good call” with Trump and claimed Europe is ready for fast, strong negotiations.

    Right now, U.S. tariffs on European aluminum, cars, and steel can reach up to 25 percent. The Trump team has already made deals with countries like Britain after Brexit but is taking a tougher stand against Brussels.

    Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Europe’s internal fights make things harder but believes Trump’s tough approach could push them to act. The next move belongs to Brussels as both sides gear up for intense talks.

    NO MAJOR World News Shocks: Calm Before the Next Global Storm

    — Major news outlets report no shocking world events outside the UK and US as of May 22, 2025. The global timeline is steady, with only previously covered incidents making headlines.

    Recent stories highlight big jail breaks, court rulings in Britain, and ongoing immigration challenges. In Southeast Asia, millions are still struggling after deadly floods and landslides forced them from their homes.

    The biggest diplomatic twist came when former President Donald Trump announced a surprise ceasefire between India and Pakistan — brokered with help from Russian President Vladimir Putin. This move caught many off guard and may shape future talks in the region.

    For now, there are no new global crises or major breakthroughs to report. Conservative readers can expect more focus on local issues in coming days as the world waits for what happens next.

    — No new major financial stories emerge. Monitoring will continue for any updates.

    EU COURT SPARKS Outrage After Blocking Migrant Criminal Deportations

    EU COURT SPARKS Outrage After Blocking Migrant Criminal Deportations

    — A group of European leaders is furious with the EUROPEAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS for stopping countries from deporting criminal migrants. Denmark and eight other nations say these rulings make it harder to keep their citizens safe and protect national borders.

    Leaders from Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Italy, Poland, and Denmark sent a strong letter demanding more power to expel immigrants who break the law. They said it’s shocking that some newcomers abuse their freedom by committing crimes instead of following the rules.

    The group believes the court’s decisions are tying their hands. They argue that international judges are blocking necessary deportations and taking away choices from local voters and lawmakers.

    With Denmark soon leading the EU presidency, this bold move shows growing anger across Europe. Many now worry that outside courts have too much control over national safety and security.

    NO NEW World News Shocks: Global Headlines Fall Silent Outside UK and US

    — As of May 22, 2025, there are no new breaking news stories from outside the UK and US. The world news cycle is quiet for now.

    Ongoing events like Russian attacks in Ukraine and Southeast Asia’s humanitarian problems are still being reported. However, nothing new or urgent has come up at this time.

    This rare pause in international headlines shows a moment of calm outside the usual trouble spots. For now, people are watching the same conflicts and crises already known to the public.

    ISRAEL UNDER Fire: Shocking Human Shield Claims Spark Outrage In Gaza

    — A Palestinian man says Israeli soldiers forced him to act as a human shield during raids in Gaza. He claims he was beaten, threatened, and made to enter homes first to check for danger. The Associated Press reports that both Palestinians and some Israeli soldiers say this is not a rare event.

    An unnamed Israeli officer told AP that these orders sometimes come from higher up the chain of command. Many platoons are said to use Palestinians in this way during the ongoing conflict, which has dragged on for more than 19 months.

    Israel’s military strongly denies these accusations. They say using civilians as shields is banned and not part of their rules or training.

    Israeli officials also point out that Hamas often hides behind civilians and uses them as shields. They blame Hamas for most civilian deaths in Gaza, saying the terror group puts innocent people at risk on purpose.

    TRUMP’S Bold Peace Deal Stuns World: India-Pakistan Ceasefire Shocks Rivals

    — Former President Donald Trump has announced a surprise ceasefire between India and Pakistan. The agreement came after Trump spoke directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who helped bring both sides together. Fighting along the border will now stop.

    This deal arrives as fears of war in South Asia have been rising. India and Pakistan are both nuclear countries and have fought many times over Kashmir. Past ceasefires often failed to last.

    Trump pointed out that Russia’s help was key to making the talks happen. He called it “an important step toward peace.”

    Details of the agreement have not been shared yet. People around the world now wait to see if this truce will hold or break like so many before it.

    — Southeast Asia faces a major humanitarian crisis as floods and landslides displace over 2 million people. Authorities warn that ongoing weather and damaged infrastructure hinder rescue efforts amid mounting fatalities.

    — No new major world news reported outside UK and US. The current news timeline remains unchanged, with no recent breaking events.

    ISRAELI STRIKES Shock Gaza: Hostage Rescue Sparks Outrage and Heartbreak

    — Israeli airstrikes hit Gaza overnight and into Tuesday, leaving at least 60 dead, according to Palestinian health officials. Israel says its renewed attacks are focused on rescuing hostages held by Hamas and wiping out the terrorist group.

    Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently allowed a few aid trucks into Gaza after months of blockade. U.N. groups claim this small amount of help is nowhere near enough for the people in Gaza, who are running out of food and supplies.

    The strikes targeted several spots, including a family home and a school used as a shelter in northern Gaza. Women and children were among those killed. The Israeli military did not comment right away but says it aims for militants only. They blame Hamas for hiding among civilians.

    Israel is pushing forward against Hamas even as world leaders call for more aid to reach civilians. The fight to free hostages continues while tensions remain high in the region.

    NO SHOCKING Financial News Rocks Markets: Investors Relieved on May 17, 2025

    NO SHOCKING Financial News Rocks Markets: Investors Relieved on May 17, 2025

    — Conservative investors hoping for big headlines today can breathe easy. There are no new financial shocks or surprises for May 17, 2025. The news cycle remains calm, with no sudden market drops or major policy changes making waves.

    Instead, the main stories still center on ongoing issues like the Russia-Ukraine conflict and U.S. ties in the Middle East. Some reports mention local ceasefires, but nothing has rattled Wall Street or Main Street today. No big IPOs or earnings shakeups have hit the wires either.

    Japan’s decision to treat crypto assets as financial products stands out as a recent highlight from late March — not today. Inflation is cooling a bit, but worries about tariffs and global trade fights continue to linger over the markets’ future direction.

    In short, it’s a steady day for finance with no fresh disruptions or breakthroughs reported. Smart investors should keep watching world events that could change things in the days ahead — but for now, all is quiet on Wall Street.;

    TRUMP’S Bold Peace Deal Stops India-Pakistan Bloodshed — World Reacts

    — India and Pakistan have agreed to a sudden ceasefire after weeks of deadly fighting. President Donald TRUMP and his team led the talks, with Trump sharing the news on Truth Social. He praised both sides for showing “Common Sense and Great Intelligence.” The truce follows missile attacks in Kashmir that killed more than 70 people.

    Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President J.D. Vance helped push the agreement forward. Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif thanked Trump for stepping in, but India claimed it settled things directly with Pakistan, downplaying America’s role.

    Even though guns are silent for now, tough steps like visa bans and smaller embassies will stay in place. Saudi Arabia and Turkey also helped bring both sides to the table.

    This deal gives hope to a region worried about nuclear war but leaves many problems unsolved — especially over Kashmir. The world is watching to see if this shaky peace will last.

    CNN’S LAND Truth Twisted: Outrage Grows Over South Africa Coverage

    CNN’S LAND Truth Twisted: Outrage Grows Over South Africa Coverage

    — CNN is under fire for echoing the South African government and brushing off President Trump’s warnings about white Afrikaner farmers. Anderson Cooper repeated the disputed claim that black South Africans own just 4% of private land, while downplaying deadly farm attacks as ordinary crimes.

    Last year, South Africa passed a law allowing land to be taken without payment in some cases. Supporters say this fixes old wrongs, but critics fear it could destroy property rights and bring chaos. So far, no land has been seized.

    The Institute of Race Relations in South Africa says CNN’s numbers are misleading. They argue that the 4% figure does not show who really owns farmland and confuses public debate.

    President Trump raised alarms over violence against Afrikaner farmers, leading to fast-track refugee status for some families. CNN keeps ignoring these facts and context while reporting on this heated issue.

    TRUMP And PUTIN Absence Sparks Chaos at Peace Talks

    TRUMP And PUTIN Absence Sparks Chaos at Peace Talks

    — Confusion broke out at the Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Turkey after both President TRUMP and Russian leader Putin said they would not attend. The meeting, set for Thursday, was pushed to Friday as officials scrambled to figure out who would actually show up.

    Secretary of State Marco Rubio voiced his doubts about any real progress without Trump or Putin in the room. He said, “It’s clear that only a direct meeting between President Trump and President Putin will move things forward.”

    With neither Putin nor top Kremlin aides present, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and others waited in separate Turkish cities. Frustration grew as it became obvious that key leaders were missing from the table.

    The push for peace started when Putin suggested direct talks with Ukraine last week. Zelenskyy agreed but stressed both nations’ leaders must be involved for any deal to work.

    TRUMP’S Historic Arms Deal Shocks World: $142 Billion Boost For America

    — President Trump just signed a record $142 billion arms deal with Saudi Arabia. This is the biggest defense sale in US history. The agreement gives Saudi Arabia advanced military gear, weapons, and support from American companies.

    Part of the deal includes gas turbines and $3.3 billion worth of air-to-air missiles for Saudi jets. US officials say this strengthens our foreign policy and keeps a key ally close in the Gulf region.

    Saudi Arabia also plans to invest up to $600 billion in America over four years. President Trump wants that number to reach $1 trillion. This trip was his first official visit of his second term, showing strong ties between Washington and Riyadh.

    This deal proves America’s promise to keep the Middle East stable while creating jobs and bringing money back home.

    MAJOR CRIME Shock: Border Chaos, SEX Trafficking, and Judges Under Fire Shake America

    — Sean “Diddy” Combs’ sex trafficking trial kicked off in Manhattan. The nation watched as Cassie Ventura and others took the stand with serious claims. Combs’ lawyers deny every charge. Meanwhile, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested at an ICE protest for trespassing, sparking heated debate about immigration enforcement.

    The Menendez brothers’ resentencing was delayed due to arguments over risk assessments. Their family says they’ll support them if released. In South Carolina, six illegal migrants were charged with killing a local mother — raising fresh worries about border security and rising crime.

    A Florida State University shooting suspect is still behind bars after a campus attack left students on edge about safety. In New York, a judge took control of Rikers Island jail to tackle growing violence and mismanagement.

    Federal prosecutors indicted Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan for allegedly helping someone dodge immigration agents. Sinaloa cartel leaders now face narco-terrorism charges after 1.65 tons of fentanyl were seized — another reminder of the deadly drugs pouring across our borders.

    WORLD In CHAOS: Border Bloodshed and Outrage Shake Global Stability

    — Fresh violence broke out on the INDIA-PAKISTAN border just hours after leaders promised a ceasefire. Both sides blame each other for breaking the truce, leaving families in Kashmir trapped in danger. The U.S. and other countries are asking for calm, but peace looks shaky.

    In POLAND, thousands took to the streets to protest illegal immigration before the presidential election. Nationalists led chants of “no to immigration,” blaming Russia and Belarus for sending migrants into Europe. The Law and Justice party’s candidate is gaining support with his strong border stance.

    ISRAEL is under fire from aid groups over how it handles humanitarian help in Gaza as conditions get worse for Palestinians. In a bold move, EL SALVADOR has offered to house U.S. prisoners if America pays — raising eyebrows as the U.S. struggles with crowded jails.

    Other world news: Ukraine’s President Zelensky called out Putin for direct talks, while Donald Trump pushed for new peace talks between Ukraine and Russia. Headlines also include a Vatican call for peace, White House jet deals with Qatar, a Soviet spacecraft re-entry scare, Taliban banning chess over gambling fears, and even a strange hermit crab smuggling case making waves worldwide.

    US DIPLOMACY STUNS World: Fragile India-Pakistan Ceasefire Sparks Hope and Doubt

    US DIPLOMACY STUNS World: Fragile India-Pakistan Ceasefire Sparks Hope and Doubt

    — The United States has helped stop fighting between India and Pakistan after two tense days. Vice President Vance and Secretary Rubio spoke directly with both countries’ leaders, including Prime Ministers Modi and Sharif. The deal calls for an immediate end to violence and promises more talks soon.

    Pakistan’s Prime Minister thanked U.S. leaders, saying America played a key role in making peace possible. This shows the Biden administration is taking a hands-on approach in South Asia.

    The State Department shared details about the tough talks and new ways for India and Pakistan to communicate. The ceasefire is fragile but offers hope for peace in a region known for conflict.

    Photos from the meetings show progress, but real peace will need the U.S. to stay involved — and both countries must be held responsible if things break down again.

    INDIA’S Bold Trade Demand: Will Americans PAY the Price?

    INDIA’S Bold Trade Demand: Will Americans PAY the Price?

    — India wants to cut tariffs on American products, slashing the gap with the U.S. from 13 percent down to just four percent. This plan would drop duties on things like planes, cars, and medical equipment to zero. Nearly 90 percent of American goods could get easier access into India.

    But there’s a catch. In return, India wants its jewelry, textiles, chemicals, and farm goods to flow more freely into America. They’re also asking for more chances to get U.S. technology in areas like computer chips and artificial intelligence.

    Right now, India enjoys a $45.7 billion trade surplus with the United States — a number President Trump has called unfair in the past. His administration put tough tariffs on Indian goods but paused them for 90 days last month. Now that deadline is coming up fast.

    The U.S., for its part, wants India to loosen strict rules that hurt American companies selling medical devices and chemicals there. Both countries need each other — India wants investment while America fights for fairer deals — but who will come out ahead if this deal goes through?

    AMERICA’S Calm DAY: Why NO Breaking News on May 10 Left Many Relieved

    — May 10, 2025, was a rare day for the United States. There were no major breaking news stories. The news cycle stayed steady, giving Americans a break from constant headlines.

    Top stories included the US helping broker peace between India and Pakistan. Vice President Vance and Secretary Rubio led talks that ended with Pakistan’s Prime Minister thanking America for its leadership.

    Disney posted strong profits as families flocked to theme parks and streaming services. Other updates covered debates over the debt ceiling, moves to speed up oil and gas projects, ICE enforcing immigration laws, an earthquake in Tennessee, and police cracking down on illegal immigration.

    Newsrooms reported nothing exclusive or urgent for the day but promised to keep watch for any new developments as they happen.

    AMERICA STRIKES Back: Illegal Immigration Crackdown Ignites Hope And Shocks The World

    — The U.S. is taking bold action to stop illegal immigration. Border security and law enforcement have been ramped up to protect Americans and restore order. Leaders say these steps are needed, even as critics push back.

    Crime rates have spiked in some areas at the same time. Some blame tougher immigration rules for this rise, while others say it’s about enforcing the law and keeping communities safe. Police are working hard to keep neighborhoods secure.

    In a surprise move, Pope Leo XIV — America’s first pope — has stunned the world. His election is a big moment for American Catholics and has sparked new debates about faith and culture across the country.

    All of this happens as President Trump stands strong against threats like Iran’s nuclear program. With changes at home and overseas, issues like border security, crime, religion, and leadership will decide America’s next chapter.

    POLAND’S Fiery Rejection: Massive Protests Erupt Over Illegal Immigration Threat

    POLAND’S Fiery Rejection: Massive Protests Erupt Over Illegal Immigration Threat

    — Thousands filled the streets of Warsaw, waving Poland’s red and white flags and shouting “no to immigration.” The protest was led by the nationalist opposition as worries about illegal immigration grow before the May 18 election.

    Poland is already sheltering about one million Ukrainian refugees because of the war in Ukraine. Leaders say Russia and Belarus are pushing even more migrants toward Poland and the rest of Europe.

    Protesters showed strong support for nationalist presidential candidate Karol Nawrocki, who backs policies like Donald Trump’s. Nawrocki is supported by the right-wing Law and Justice party and outgoing President Andrzej Duda. He is polling second with 25 percent support.

    “Poland has to defend itself against illegal immigration,” said Boguslaw Uchmanowicz, a 66-year-old farmer at the rally. “These migrants have their own countries. They should stay there.”

    INDIA’S Bold Trade Deal Gamble: Will American Workers Pay the Price?

    INDIA’S Bold Trade Deal Gamble: Will American Workers Pay the Price?

    — India wants a new trade deal to cut tariffs on U.S. goods. The plan would lower the average tariff gap between Indian and American exports from 13 percent to just four percent. India is offering zero duties on some U.S. imports and “preferential access” for nearly 90 percent of American products, including planes, cars, medical gear, and animal feed.

    In return, India wants better access for its own exports like jewelry, textiles, chemicals, and farm produce. It also hopes to get advanced U.S. technology in computer chips and medicine. Right now, India has a $45.7 billion trade surplus with America.

    The Trump administration has called out this huge trade gap as unfair to American workers and businesses. Last month it threatened high tariffs on Indian goods but paused them for 90 days while talks continue.

    U.S. officials want India to ease its tough rules on imported medical devices and chemicals that block American companies from selling there. Both countries are under pressure to reach a deal before time runs out — one that could finally tackle years of unfair trading practices against America’s interests.

    TRUMP STANDS Firm: Iran’S Chilling Threats Spark Urgent Nuclear Showdown

    TRUMP STANDS Firm: Iran’S Chilling Threats Spark Urgent Nuclear Showdown

    — President Trump’s team is back at the table with Iran, trying to stop their illegal nuclear plans. But Iran won’t talk directly. Instead, they send messages through Oman, showing they don’t want open talks.

    The head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, a group the U.S. calls terrorists, threatened both America and Israel. He warned that if we make “the slightest mistake,” Iran will “open the gates of hell.” While he claims to prefer diplomacy, he says his country is ready for war.

    Iranian state media tried to calm things down by saying they’d only hit back if attacked first. Still, their leader made it clear — anyone who strikes Iran will pay a heavy price.

    This general has become more visible since President Trump ordered the strike on Soleimani in 2020. The new Quds Force leader stays out of sight, leaving many wondering about his real role in the regime.

    INDIA’S Desperate Gamble: US Trade Deal Could Save Billions from Painful Tarif F Hike

    INDIA’S Desperate Gamble: US Trade Deal Could Save Billions from Painful Tarif F Hike

    — India is racing to strike a trade deal with the United States before a 90-day tariff break runs out. If they fail, steep new tariffs could hit Indian exports hard. The plan would cut India’s average tariffs from 17 percent down to nearly America’s much lower 3.3 percent rate.

    The proposed agreement gives the U.S. big wins: India would drop duties on some American goods and open its market wider for almost 90 percent of U.S. imports, like cars, planes, and medical devices. In exchange, India wants easier access for its own products — such as jewelry and textiles — and hopes to get more advanced technology from America.

    President Trump’s team has blasted India’s $45.7 billion trade surplus with the U.S., calling it unfair competition. They’ve warned that if no deal is reached soon, heavy new tariffs will slam Indian exports.

    Experts say India still shields its home industries but needs this deal fast to boost sales abroad and attract investment for growth. Both sides are under pressure as the deadline gets closer by the day.

    POPE VOTE Shocker: Cardinals Deadlocked as World Waits in Suspense

    POPE VOTE Shocker: Cardinals Deadlocked as World Waits in Suspense

    — Black smoke rose above St. Peter’s Square Wednesday night. Catholic cardinals could not agree on a new pope after their first vote, leaving millions watching and waiting for answers.

    A total of 133 cardinals from 66 countries gathered behind closed doors. They are cut off from the outside world and must keep everything secret or risk excommunication.

    The cardinals spent the night at the Santa Marta guesthouse. On Thursday morning, they attended a private mass before getting ready for another round of voting.

    If no one gets a two-thirds majority in the next ballot, more votes will follow until someone is chosen. This process can take days, just like when Benedict XVI and Francis were elected. The world now waits to see who will lead 1.4 billion Catholics next.

    CARDINAL PIZZABALLA Shocks World: Heroic Offer Makes Him Next Pope Favorite

    CARDINAL PIZZABALLA Shocks World: Heroic Offer Makes Him Next Pope Favorite

    — Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the Latin patriarch of Jerusalem, is now a top pick to become the next Pope. The conclave to choose a new leader for over a billion Catholics starts Wednesday in Rome.

    Pope Francis named Pizzaballa a cardinal in September 2023, just before Hamas terrorists attacked Israel. Over 1,200 people were killed and more than 250 were taken hostage during that attack. In an act of courage, Pizzaballa offered himself as a hostage to Hamas in exchange for kidnapped children.

    “Anything, if this can lead to freedom and bring those children back home,” he said at the time. He is the first cardinal living in Israel and was born in northern Italy in 1965.

    This decision comes as the Catholic Church faces global tension and shifting alliances. Taiwan is also keeping an eye on how Vatican-China relations could change with new leadership at the helm.

    ARMY SOLDIER Arrest Shocks Colorado Springs: Illegal Aliens, Drugs, and Betrayal Exposed

    ARMY SOLDIER Arrest Shocks Colorado Springs: Illegal Aliens, Drugs, and Betrayal Exposed

    — A U.S. Army soldier is facing federal charges after a major drug bust at a Colorado Springs nightclub known for illegal activity. Juan Gabriel Orona-Rodriguez, 28, was caught selling cocaine to an undercover agent just days before the DEA raided the club called Warike. The club has a reputation for attracting illegal aliens and criminals.

    Investigators found months of drug deals in text messages on Orona-Rodriguez’s phone. He also held a leadership role at Immortal Security LLC, which provided armed guards for Warike and other nightclubs in the area.

    During the raid, agents arrested 114 illegal aliens and seized guns, drugs, and related items. Seventeen active-duty Army members were also found at the scene during this operation.

    Officials say this arrest is part of President Trump’s “Operation Take Back America.” The mission aims to stop illegal immigration and break up violent criminal groups across our nation.

    Pakistan launches Ghauri ballistic missile in test of readiness

    PAKISTAN’S Bold Missile Test Ignites Fears Of Conflict With India

    — Pakistan fired a powerful surface-to-surface missile on Saturday, turning up the heat with India. This comes just weeks after a deadly attack in Kashmir. The Abdali Weapon System can strike targets up to 280 miles away and uses advanced navigation, according to Pakistan’s military.

    Officials in Islamabad claim the test was only about staying prepared. But experts believe it was meant as a warning to India. The missile is named after an old Muslim conqueror of India, which adds an extra layer of meaning.

    India has not responded directly but recently showed off its own naval weapons. Both sides are showing their strength as arguments over Kashmir and water rights grow more serious.

    Tensions between these nuclear-armed neighbors are rising again, leaving many worried about what could happen next.

    Pakistan launches Ghauri ballistic missile in test of readiness

    PAKISTAN MISSILE Test Ignites Fears: India-Kashmir Showdown Grows

    — Pakistan fired a ballistic missile on Saturday as tensions with India climbed after a deadly attack in Kashmir. The Abdali Weapon System, which can strike targets up to 280 miles away, was tested to prove it is ready for action and has advanced navigation abilities.

    India has not responded publicly to the launch. However, Indian officials blame Pakistan for the April 22 killing of tourists in Pahalgam — something Pakistan denies. The missile test comes as India threatens to end an important water-sharing deal, making things even more tense between the two countries.

    Pakistani leaders celebrated the successful launch. Security experts point out that naming the missile after a famous Muslim conqueror of India sends a strong signal about intent and pride.

    India’s navy also ran anti-ship missile drills recently to show its own military strength. Both countries seem set on proving they are ready for anything as their relationship grows colder by the day.

    US TAXPAYERS FED UP: Bold Bill Demands UN PAY Fair Share in Somalia WAR

    US TAXPAYERS FED UP: Bold Bill Demands UN PAY Fair Share in Somalia WAR

    — Three Republican senators have introduced a bill to block U.S. funding for Somalia’s fight against Islamist terror unless the United Nations, European Union, and African Union step up their own support. The “African Union Support and Stabilization Mission in Somalia (AUSSOM) Funding Restriction Act of 2025” aims to protect American tax dollars and make global partners pay their “fair” share.

    Senator Jim Risch told Fox News Digital the bill is meant “to safeguard U.S. taxpayer funds and hold the U.N. and A.U. accountable in African peace operations.” The law would also require America to oppose any United Nations Security Council move that asks for more U.S. money for these missions.

    Somalia has suffered years of violence from ISIS and al-Shabab terrorists, with recent U.S. airstrikes hitting both groups over just five weeks. President Trump ordered strikes on ISIS leaders in Somalia during his time in office, showing how involved America has been in keeping the region secure.;

    US-UKRAINE MINERALS Deal Ignites Hope for Trump’S Strong Support

    — The United States and Ukraine have signed a new deal giving America access to Ukraine’s key minerals. Ukrainian leaders say this version is better for them than past drafts, which would have made Ukraine less of an equal partner. The agreement still needs approval from Ukraine’s parliament.

    The deal also sets up a fund to help rebuild Ukraine. Kyiv hopes this will secure more U.S. military aid in the future. A similar agreement almost happened before but was stopped during tense talks with President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and President Zelenskyy.

    Secretary of State Marco Rubio called this week “very critical” for ending the war in Ukraine. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the deal sends Russia a clear message: The Trump administration stands by a free and independent Ukraine.

    Ukraine sees this as an important move to keep America as its top ally against Russia’s invasion. Now all eyes are on whether Kyiv’s lawmakers will approve the plan.

    IRAN PORT Explosion Horror: Regime Hides True Death Toll, Families Devastated

    IRAN PORT Explosion Horror: Regime Hides True Death Toll, Families Devastated

    — Iran’s rulers are under fire for hiding the real toll from a deadly blast at the Shahid Rajaee port in Bandar Abbas. Officials say 70 people died and 1,200 were hurt. But opposition groups claim at least 250 lost their lives and 1,500 were injured.

    Eyewitnesses and local reports suggest Iran’s leaders are trying to cover up the disaster to stop protests. Maryam Rajavi from the National Council of Resistance of Iran says the true number of deaths is much higher than what officials admit. She accuses Iran’s government of caring more about hiding facts than helping victims.

    The explosion began when a container filled with sodium perchlorate — used in missile fuel — caught fire. The blast destroyed offices and shipping containers nearby, leaving a huge crater behind.

    Sources told Fox News Digital that anyone within 200 feet likely died on the spot. This tragedy raises new fears about Iran’s secret missile work — and its habit of hiding bad news from its own people and the rest of the world.

    SPAIN BLACKOUT Panic: Power Outage Wreaks Havoc Across Iberian Peninsula

    SPAIN BLACKOUT Panic: Power Outage Wreaks Havoc Across Iberian Peninsula

    — A huge blackout hit Spain and Portugal on Monday, leaving millions in the dark. Subway riders had to be evacuated, and traffic lights stopped working. The Spanish government called a state of emergency as crews rushed to get the lights back on. Half of Spain has power now, but full recovery could take until Tuesday.

    The trouble started just after noon when electricity demand dropped sharply from 27,500 megawatts to about 15,000. Portugal’s grid operator blamed a rare weather event called “induced atmospheric vibration.” This knocked out high-voltage lines and caused problems across Europe’s shared power network.

    Officials in Portugal say this was not a cyberattack. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said experts are still looking for answers but mentioned a “strong oscillation” in Europe’s electric grid.

    Red Eléctrica says it may take up to ten hours before everything is back to normal in both countries. This blackout shows how fragile Europe’s energy system can be during extreme weather events.

    MYANMAR EARTHQUAKE Horror: Survivors Shaken by Ruthless Airstrikes

    — A month after a huge 7.7 earthquake rocked Myanmar, survivors are still in crisis. Nearly 3,800 people died and more than 5,000 were hurt. Many towns have no power or phone service. Thousands of homes and buildings are destroyed.

    The military government promised a ceasefire to help with rescue work. But reports say the army has launched at least 80 airstrikes since the quake hit. Most strikes happened after they claimed to stop fighting on April 2.

    Myanmar has been in chaos since the military took over in a coup back in 2021. The country’s leaders were kicked out, and civil war broke out soon after.

    Now, earthquake victims face even more danger from ongoing attacks and unrest. Regular families are trapped between violence and disaster with little hope for quick help or safety.

    VANCOUVER HORROR: Deadly SUV Attack Shatters Festival, Families Devastated

    — A black SUV tore through a crowd at a Filipino festival in Vancouver on Friday night. Police say there are several dead and injured, but the exact numbers are still unknown. Authorities have warned that the casualty count could be high.

    The attack happened just after 8 p.m. at the Lapu Lapu Day festival in South Vancouver. Videos online show chaos — victims and debris scattered everywhere, with some people not moving on the ground.

    Police have arrested one suspect and confirmed they are not looking for anyone else. Interim Police Chief Steve Rai told reporters, “One suspect, one vehicle.”

    Officials have not shared why this happened yet. The investigation continues as families wait for news about their loved ones.

    POPE FRANCIS Farewell Shocks World: Leaders and Crowds Flood Vatican

    — Tens of thousands packed St. Peter’s Square on Saturday to say goodbye to Pope Francis. The funeral, planned by the pope himself, showed his wish for a simpler church focused on service and humility.

    Francis often said the pope should be “a mere pastor and not a powerful man of this world.” He pushed reforms to help the poor and those left out by society.

    Still, world leaders came in large numbers. President Trump, former President Biden, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, European royals, and over 160 delegations joined mourners at the Vatican.

    After the ceremony — where old hymns mixed with people snapping selfies — Francis was laid to rest in a basilica across Rome. The event was broadcast worldwide as crowds filled city streets to honor him.

    VANCE UNLEASHES on “Doomsday” Environmentalism, Celebrates India’s Bold Rise

    VANCE UNLEASHES on “Doomsday” Environmentalism, Celebrates India’s Bold Rise

    — Senator J.D. Vance took aim at Western leaders for pushing what he called “doomsday environmentalist ideology.” He said these policies hold back growth and make America rely on foreign rivals. In contrast, Vance praised India’s spirit to build and move forward.

    He pointed to President Trump’s tariffs as a smart way to fix unfair trade and help both the U.S. and India. Vance said Trump’s focus on American industry matches Prime Minister Modi’s vision for a stronger India. He criticized past leaders who lectured India instead of treating them as equals.

    Vance stressed the need for closer economic and defense ties between America and India. He said the U.S. is ready to help India grow its energy sector, especially nuclear power.

    On defense, Vance talked about making military gear together, like Javelin missiles and Striker vehicles. He believes strong teamwork keeps both countries safe by showing strength — not weakness — to those who threaten peace.

    VANCE TORCHES Western Fear — Hails India’S Hope And Trump’S Bold Trade Plan

    — Senator J.D. Vance called out the “doom and gloom” attitude he sees in many Western countries. He praised India for its hope and drive, saying it stands in sharp contrast to the fear pushed by environmental alarmists in the West.

    Vance said these alarmists want policies that slow down growth and make America more dependent on rivals like China. He warned that this mindset hurts families and weakens our country.

    He also backed President Trump’s trade tariffs, saying they would help fix unfair global trade rules. Vance believes Trump’s focus on strong American industry matches Prime Minister Modi’s goals for India.

    Vance pointed to growing defense ties between the U.S. and India, such as making Javelin missiles together. He says this teamwork keeps both nations safer while showing strength to those who might threaten us.

    POPE FRANCIS’ Final Moments: Heartfelt Words Before His Peaceful Passing

    POPE FRANCIS’ Final Moments: Heartfelt Words Before His Peaceful Passing

    — Pope Francis has died at age 88, the Vatican confirmed on Monday. In his last moments, he shared a message of thanks with his personal nurse and caregiver, Massimiliano Strappetti.

    Just before his death, Francis wondered if he could greet the crowd in St. Peter’s Square after giving his Easter blessing. He asked Strappetti, “Do you think I can manage it?” After being reassured, he toured the square and hugged children and others along the way.

    Francis expressed deep gratitude to Strappetti for making that final visit possible. “Thank you for bringing me back to the Square,” he said, according to Vatican News.

    The Pope spent Sunday afternoon resting quietly and had dinner before passing away peacefully later that night.

    POPE FRANCIS Death Shock: World Stunned as Global News Stalls

    — The world is standing still after the death of POPE FRANCIS. Business leaders worldwide have sent their condolences, but there are no major international events making headlines.

    Most news outlets have shifted focus to U.S. stories, like the Arizona Department of Corrections investigation and Harvard’s lawsuit against the Trump administration. These are not global stories and offer little for those wanting international updates.

    Outside of ongoing coverage about Pope Francis’s passing, there is almost no movement on the world stage. Anyone hoping for big news from abroad will have to wait until something new breaks.

    NO NEW World News Shocks: Media Silent Beyond US, UK on April 21

    — On April 21, 2025, global news outlets had nothing new to report outside the United States and United Kingdom. Headlines stayed the same as previous days.

    Most coverage still centers on the Israel-Palestine conflict. Aid groups warn about Gaza’s growing crisis because of ongoing blockades. In the UK, protests and legal fights over transgender rights continue to make news.

    No fresh international events or emergencies have surfaced beyond these stories today.

    Conservative readers may notice how media keeps focusing on just a few issues instead of reporting unexpected world events that matter to everyday people.

    AMERICAN PASTOR’S Miracle Escape: Faith and Grit Save Missionary in Deadly South Africa Shootout

    AMERICAN PASTOR’S Miracle Escape: Faith and Grit Save Missionary in Deadly South Africa Shootout

    — American pastor Josh Sullivan is safe after being kidnapped in South Africa’s Eastern Cape. Police rescued him during a violent shootout with his captors. Sullivan, a missionary serving with his family, said faith and prayer helped him survive the terrifying ordeal. He thanked law enforcement teams from both countries, including the South African HAWKS, FBI, and U.S. Diplomatic Security Service. “It was because of these prayers that God performed a miracle a few nights ago,” Sullivan said. Sullivan also praised his wife for her strength throughout the crisis. He called her “the strongest woman in the world last week.” This kidnapping shines a light on rising crime in South Africa. American missionaries like Sullivan face real risks while helping others abroad.

    TRUMP-ERA Airstrike Shocks Houthi Rebels: Over 70 Dead at OIL Port

    — A U.S. airstrike ordered by President Trump hit the Ras Isa oil port in Yemen, killing more than 70 people and injuring many others. The target was a facility run by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels, showing a bold move in America’s fight against the group. The attack happened just before new talks between the U.S. and Iran about Tehran’s nuclear program. Washington has linked these talks to Iran’s actions in Yemen. The Houthis have attacked ships in the Red Sea and fired on Israel, making them a major threat to American interests. Houthi media showed bodies at the scene and burning tanker trucks after the strike. The rebels called it “unjustified aggression.” Some experts warn this could hurt fuel supplies for millions living under Houthi control. The Biden administration says it is pressuring Iran but faces criticism for not being tough enough on its proxies like the Houthis. This strike proves that when American interests are at risk, military action is still an option — no matter who is president.

    ISRAEL’S Gaza Blockade Triggers Heartbreaking Food Crisis

    — Israel’s blockade of Gaza has pushed most families to survive on just one meal a day. Aid groups warn that the situation is getting worse, with thousands of children now suffering from hunger. The United Nations says the entire aid system in Gaza is close to breaking down. Many charities have stopped working after new Israeli airstrikes killed dozens, including whole families. Israel says it resumed military action in March to force Hamas to release hostages. The military claims it targets only militants but blames Hamas for hiding among civilians. Almost all two million people in Gaza now rely on charity kitchens for food, according to the U.N. These kitchens can only offer simple meals like rice or pasta — no fresh vegetables or meat. As supplies run out, food programs are closing their doors. Aid groups are sending what little they have left straight to charity kitchens as conditions grow more desperate by the day.

    TRUMP BORDER Policy Delivers Shocking WIN: Migrant Arrests Plummet to Record Lows

    TRUMP BORDER Policy Delivers Shocking WIN: Migrant Arrests Plummet to Record Lows

    — Border Patrol agents arrested just 15,527 migrants crossing illegally from Mexico during the first two full months of the Trump administration. That’s a huge drop compared to 278,114 arrests during the same period under President Biden last year. Daily encounters fell from over 4,600 per day in early 2024 to only 263 per day this year. Acting CBP Commissioner Pete Flores said Border Patrol’s apprehensions for all of March 2025 were lower than just the first two days of March 2024. He praised agents for their hard work and focus on keeping America safe. February saw a record low of only 8,346 migrant arrests along the southwest border with Trump in charge. March numbers dropped even further to just 7,181 — almost a 14 percent decrease. Every sector reported big declines in illegal crossings, with some areas seeing drops over 92 percent. CBP officials say these results show that strong enforcement is working and operational control is becoming reality. They stressed that illegal crossers are getting the message: if you cross illegally, you will be deported. The Department of Defense also helped by boosting patrols and driving down crossings even more.

    PUTIN’S Shocking Praise for Elon Musk Sparks Global Buzz

    PUTIN’S Shocking Praise for Elon Musk Sparks Global Buzz

    — Russian President Vladimir Putin surprised many by comparing Elon Musk to Soviet space legend Sergei Korolev. Speaking with university students, Putin said Musk “raves about Mars” and called him a rare figure who makes the impossible happen. He linked Musk’s bold dreams to Korolev’s historic achievements in space.

    Putin admitted that reaching Mars seems far off today but believes ideas like Musk’s can come true over time. He reminded listeners that Korolev, once doubted, led the Soviets to major victories in space exploration after years of struggle under Stalin.

    Sergei Korolev was kept secret during his life but became a hero after his death for launching the first satellite and human into orbit. Putin used this story to show how visionaries can shape history, even if people doubt them at first.

    Kirill Dmitriev, head of Russia’s wealth fund, added that missions to Mars are “getting more real.” Dmitriev recently visited Washington D.C., meeting with Trump officials after U.S. sanctions were lifted for his trip — a sign of possible new talks between Russia and America.;

    ISRAEL’S Bold Refusal: Gaza Ceasefire Deal Sparks Outrage and Hope

    — Israel has rejected the latest Gaza ceasefire plan, which was brokered by the United States and backed by several Middle Eastern countries. The deal asked for a 70-day pause in fighting and a phased release of ten hostages, both living and deceased. Israeli leaders said these terms were “impossible for any responsible Israeli government to accept,” warning it would hand Hamas a victory without protecting Israel’s future.

    A key problem was that Israel would have to pull its troops from important positions in Gaza as part of the hostage release. The plan also depended on more talks for additional hostages, something Israeli officials called risky and untrustworthy. They worried that increasing humanitarian aid during active fighting could be seen as rewarding Hamas.

    Palestinian sources said Hamas first wanted a 90-day ceasefire, while U.S. negotiators suggested 60 days before everyone agreed on 70 days as a middle ground. Egypt also joined the talks, asking for more remains to be returned in any swap.

    Even with pressure from other countries and warnings about life getting worse in Gaza, Israel’s leaders stayed focused on safety above all else. More negotiations are expected since both sides are still far apart on what they want.
