Yoel Alter, a prominent leader of the ultra-Orthodox Jewish cult, Lev Tahor, was arrested in Guatemala following an operation led by Interpol. The arrest comes amid allegations of child abuse and human trafficking, which have been tied to the controversial group.
Interpol operation leads to arrest in Guatemala
The 35-year-old Alter was apprehended in Guatemala after a request for his extradition was made by Mexico, where he faces human trafficking charges. He appeared in a Guatemalan court, where he was subsequently detained, and will likely be extradited to Mexico for trial.
Lev Tahor cult’s dark allegations
Founded in Israel in 1988, Lev Tahor has been under scrutiny for a range of serious crimes, including child abuse, human trafficking, and forced marriages of minors. The cult has been operating in Mexico and Guatemala since 2014. In December 2024, police in Guatemala raided the cult’s compound in the Santa Rosa region, rescuing 160 children and 40 women from alleged abuse by cult members.

On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 11:59 pm (EST), all USAID direct hire personnel will be placed on administrative leave globally, except for a select group managing mission-critical functions, core leadership, and specially designated programs. This abrupt operational halt, announced just one day earlier, signals a dramatic shift in the agency’s trajectory, raising urgent questions about its past operations, funding allocations, and accountability. The move follows increasing scrutiny of USAID’s financial ties and CIA-style influence campaigns, particularly its funding of BBC Media Action, a development arm accused of engaging in censorship under the guise of combating misinformation. In an era where information warfare has become the front line of controlling public narratives, the collusion between government agencies, mainstream media, and shadowy think tanks has never been more evident. Recent revelations suggest that USAID—the United States Agency for International Development—has funneled funds to the BBC, which in turn, through its development arm BBC Media Action, has engaged in activities that go beyond public service broadcasting. Instead, they have aligned with efforts to silence independent health platforms like GreenMedInfo (GMI) under the guise of combating “misinformation.”

In an interview with the New York Post on Friday, Trump claimed to have discussed the Ukraine conflict with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the phone – something the Kremlin has yet to confirm. While he did not provide any details, he said he had a concrete plan for ending the conflict, adding “I hope it’s fast. Every day people are dying.” He went on to blame Biden for the ongoing hostilities, arguing that it “never would have happened” if he had been president in 2022. “I always had a good relationship with Putin,” he said, according to RT. According to Trump, this is not the advantage his predecessor could have enjoyed. “Biden was an embarrassment to our nation. A complete embarrassment,” he stressed. Trump has repeatedly vowed to swiftly end the Ukraine conflict, unlike Biden, who adhered to the principle that the US must support Kyiv for “as long as it takes.” The incumbent leader has also been critical of his predecessor’s approach to aiding Ukraine, arguing in particular that it was “stupid” for Washington to allow Kyiv to use American long-range weapons for strikes deep into Russia.

Please, please – in the name of minimal decency – spare me another round of weepy propaganda over the release of some Israeli captives formerly held by inmates of the concentration camp you helped to create in Gaza. I cannot bear your misplaced sentimentality over the freed Israelis – many of whom actually wore their IDF uniforms as they left behind the ruins of what used to be Khan Younis – any more than I can tolerate your hypocrisy about the Israeli genocide you have applauded for over a year. And before you launch into a self-righteous tirade about “terrorism” and sputter “Hamas” into my face, let me assure you that I am not asking you to conduct yourselves like conscientious human beings. After watching your behavior over the last 15 months, I know that this would be too much to expect of all but a handful of “religious” Jews. No, I am only asking you to begin to call things by their right names. Can you at least do that much – before making another sanctimonious speech? Before posting another self-pitying comment on Facebook about “our hostages”?

Today we’re sharing an important article by Ron Paul. Dr. Paul has been fighting against the deep state for decades, and his perspective is invaluable. I would argue he laid the groundwork for the reforms we’re seeing today. This article was originally published at the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity. As of this writing, when you attempt to access the US Agency for International Development (USAID) website or social media pages you are informed that, “This site can’t be reached.” The media reports that the new Trump Administration has not only frozen USAID activities but may be planning on bringing it back under control of the US State Department. Other reports, including statements by Elon Musk, suggest that it will be closed completely. If true, the closing of USAID may be one of the most significant changes President Trump has made among many dramatic actions in his first couple of weeks in office. Many Americans may still have the idea that USAID is a government agency delivering relief at disaster sites overseas. They may still remember the bags of rice or grain with the USAID logo on them. But that is not USAID. USAID is a key component of the US government’s “regime change” operations worldwide. USAID spends billions of dollars every year propping up “NGOs” overseas that function as shadow governments, eating away at elected governments that the US interventionists want to overthrow.

The corrupt agency which was the ‘brainchild’ of Senator Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren (D-MA) could be on its last legs. Politico reported this morning that Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Russell Vought, who is also the acting head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), has choked off the flow of all new funding to the agency. Vought was chosen to take over from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent as interim head, who had temporarily led the agency after President Donald Trump fired its previous director, Rohit Chopra. Vought argued in a Saturday evening X post that CFPB has more than $700 million in the bank and went on to proclaim that the “spigot is being turned off.”

Well, welcome to the modern-day Democrat Party. Their latest absurdity? Melting down over the takedown of USAID—a glorified CIA slush fund that, until five minutes ago, most Americans had never even heard of. Now, suddenly, this shady, regime-change ATM masquerading as a “humanitarian” organization is being paraded around like it’s the beating heart of American democracy. Liz Warren and Maxine Waters—never ones to let reality stand in their way—actually stood in front of cameras and claimed Elon Musk was “seizing power” that belongs to the American people. Oh really, Liz? Don’t you mean power that belongs to the CIA? Are we living in the Twilight Zone, or what? After all, this isn’t just your run-of-the-mill gaslighting. This is the Dems jumping the shark, hitting the warp speed button, and crash-landing straight into lunacy land.

Google removed its 2018 pledge to avoid using AI for weapons or surveillance, sparking backlash from employees and human rights groups. The updated policy emphasizes "responsible" AI but lacks explicit bans on military or surveillance applications. Critics warn the move could enable mass surveillance, warfare, and human rights violations. Google has a history of military collaboration, including recent AI support for the Israeli military during the Israel-Gaza war. Internal and external critics argue the decision prioritizes profit and government contracts over ethical AI development. Google has quietly erased a key promise from its AI ethics guidelines, abandoning its 2018 pledge not to use artificial intelligence for weapons or surveillance. The move, announced Tuesday, has ignited fierce backlash from employees, human rights advocates, and tech watchdogs, who warn that the decision sets a dangerous precedent for the unchecked militarization of AI.

Who Programmed the AI’s to Deliver Biblical Armageddon? delves into the escalating threat posed by the unchecked weaponization of artificial intelligence. This comprehensive analysis explores how AI, initially heralded as a transformative tool for progress, has been co-opted by military-industrial complexes, intelligence agencies, authoritarian regimes, and tech corporations. These powerful entities exploit AI’s capabilities for autonomous warfare, mass surveillance, cognitive manipulation, and even potential eugenic applications. The report outlines a grim trajectory toward global destabilization, highlighting AI’s role in automating warfare, eroding democratic institutions, and fostering unprecedented economic inequality. Through detailed scenarios, it examines the ethical, legal, and societal implications of AI militarization, painting a dystopian picture of a future dominated by algorithmic control.

A major new study has confirmed that Covid “vaccines” act as a “trigger” for autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) – a lifelong liver disease. The study was conducted by leading scientists at The Second Hospital of Jilin University in China. The peer-reviewed study led by Drs. Chaojie Yu, Wenrui Wang, Qian Zhang, and Zhenjing Jin. The results were published in the renowned journal Frontiers in Immunology. The researchers found that Covid “vaccines” act as triggers for autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) through immune overstimulation, molecular mimicry, and other immune-modulating mechanisms. While AIH patients were initially assumed to be at greater risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes due to immunosuppressive therapy, the study questions this assumption by evaluating clinical evidence. Additionally, it examines whether Covid vaccination is merely associated with AIH onset or if it actively contributes to autoimmunity development. The study synthesizes findings from multiple retrospective and observational studies on AIH patients. The scientists analyzed cases involving patients with COVID-19 and those who suffered AIH post-vaccination.

The Department of Government Efficiency has found that $100 billion is paid annually to people without proper identification. Elon Musk, as head of the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has said that the US Treasury pays over $100 billion annually to individuals without Social Security Numbers (SSNs) or temporary ID numbers. Musk has urged immediate reforms to address potential fraud and inefficiencies in payment systems. The CEO of SpaceX and Tesla and owner of X has been appointed a “special government employee” to lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under US President Donald Trump’s administration and is currently among Trump’s key advisers. Despite its name, the agency is not a permanent federal executive department, but a temporary body dedicated to reducing government spending. The tech billionaire has set a goal of reducing the federal deficit by at least $1 trillion, which would require daily cuts averaging $4 billion. “Yesterday, I was told that there are currently over $100B/year of entitlements payments to individuals with no SSN or even a temporary ID number. If accurate, this is extremely suspicious,” Musk posted on X.

The American establishment realizes it can’t be everywhere anymore. The eightieth anniversary of the Yalta Conference, which laid the foundations for the international order after the Second World War, falls at a remarkable moment. Today that order is in crisis, and the conflict in Ukraine is perhaps the starkest manifestation of this breakdown. A cultural revolution is underway in the United States, which has served as the global hegemon for decades. The Trump administration did not merely tweak foreign policy – it fundamentally shifted the paradigm of how Washington sees its role in the world. What was once unthinkable is now openly discussed and even pursued as policy. This shift represents a worldview overhaul, one that questions how the world should be organized and America’s place within it.

"I think it is exactly the step that cannot be made if you have the responsibility for Germany," German chancellor noted. BERLIN, February 10. /TASS/. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said it would be wrong if his country sent weapons to Ukraine that could be used for strikes inside Russia. "I think it is wrong for us to send weapons [to Ukraine] that have a major destructive power for strikes deep inside Russia. I think it is exactly the step that cannot be made if you have the responsibility for Germany," the chancellor said during election debates with his main rival Friedrich Merz from the conservative CSU/CDU bloc. Earlier, Scholz opposed the idea of supplying Kiev with Taurus cruise missiles that have a range of around 500 km. The German head of government has stated that sending such weapons carries major escalation risks. Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) summit in late November that Moscow had repeatedly pointed out that the use of Western long-range weapons on Russian soil would mean direct NATO involvement in the conflict.

President Donald J. Trump has revoked the security clearances of his predecessor, Joe Biden, citing his past mishandling of classified documents and failing mind. “There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information. Therefore, we are immediately revoking Joe Biden’s Security Clearances, and stopping his daily Intelligence Briefings,” the America First leader announced on his Truth Social platform.“He set this precedent in 2021, when he instructed the Intelligence Community (IC) to stop the 45th President of the United States (ME!) from accessing details on National Security, a courtesy provided to former Presidents,” Trump explained. He also referenced the Hur Report on Biden’s mishandling of classified documents after his vice presidency. He recalled that the report “revealed that Biden suffers from ‘poor memory’ and, even in his ‘prime,’ could not be trusted with sensitive information.”

As China gets ready for a war with the US in the west Pacific, the pace of military innovations has notably picked up. More weapon systems are being declassified. In the 3 months since I wrote about the many new weapon systems unveiled in the November 2024 Zhuhai Airshow, the biennial premier Chinese military exhibition, even bigger military technology developments have been reported. Many of these new weapons and technologies are potential game-changers with long term implications to the balance of military power between China and the US. Here is a summary of breakthrough military tech out of China from the past 3 months. Though hardly exhaustive, it hopefully gives a sense of the rapid of pace of progress made in the field. Given the number of technologies to highlight, I will break the article in two parts and publish the second part in a few days.

While the president’s cabinet has couched his remarks as a negotiating position, Palestinians are stunned by the callousness. It’s not easy to catch Palestinians off guard, given the scenes from 15 months of Israeli bombardment, siege, starvation, and the world’s inaction to what Amnesty International has called a "genocide". But if anyone can throw things off kilter, it’s US President Donald Trump, who on Tuesday said the US would expel Palestinians from Gaza, likely move in American troops, and then develop “the Riviera of the Middle East” for tourists. The stunning announcement was made alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was given the privilege of being the first foreign leader to visit the White House in Trump’s second term. But the backlash to Trump’s “long-term ownership” of Gaza was swift. Democratic Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, the only Palestinian in the chamber, said, “Palestinians aren’t going anywhere”.

On 2 December 2024, Johns Hopkins University headlined “Johns Hopkins surgeon Marty Makary picked to lead Food and Drug Administration”. He is a prominent writer complaining against waste, fraud, and abuse, in the U.S. healthcare system, and who ignores the fact that America is the only developed country whose healthcare system is overwhelmingly profit-based and designed to benefit investors to make them richer, instead of designed as service-based to benefit the citizenry by making them healthier and longer-lived. So, Trump’s choice covers for the billionaires while he complains against the sickness-based system that is so successful at further enrichening them. However, Trump, during his campaign, had promised to place the citizenry first, not the billionaires. So, my mind was not closed to Makary. Here is the letter I emailed to him on 26 November 2024:

Doctors in Indiana are refusing to perform “gender‐affirming surgery” on a dangerous prison inmate who was jailed for murdering a baby. The inmate, Jonathan C. Richardson, is a white male who claims to be a “Muslim transgender woman.” Richardson, who now goes by the name “Autumn Cordellionè,” is serving a 55-year prison sentence for killing his infant stepdaughter. Last September, a federal judge ordered the Indiana Department of Correction to provide “gender‐affirming surgery” to Richardson after he claimed to be “female” and demanded to be housed in a women’s prison. However, no doctor in Indiana is willing to conduct such a surgery.

A leading scientist from China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology has spoken out to blow the whistle by claiming that the U.S. taxpayer-funded Chinese lab “engineered” COVID-19 as a “bioweapon” to reduce the population of humans around the world. It comes as damning evidence has emerged revealing that the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) used taxpayer money to fund the development of COVID-19 as a bioweapon in the same Wuhan laboratory. As Slay News reported earlier this week, the alarming discovery was revealed by President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) chief Elon Musk after his watchdog investigated USAID’s spending. The investigations by DOGE found that tax dollars have been funneled through USAID to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in China to develop the COVID-19 virus as a bioweapon. According to Musk, USAID has also been funding the development of other deadly viruses to be used as bioweapons against the public.

The much-maligned ideology is not “radical” or “left-wing” – it’s a tool of elitist control. In a recent post, right-wing social commentator and former academic Matt Goodwin announced that he had “just exposed how the British Psychological Society (BPS) had been captured by 'anti-racist racists'.” This post is the latest in a series in which Goodwin reveals that various institutions in the UK (including the BBC and the NHS) had been “fully captured by radical if not extreme ideologies.” One might nitpick over the term “radical” – but if Goodwin is saying that most powerful institutions in Britain are dominated by woke postmodern ideologies, one can readily agree with him. Goodwin’s latest post – by citing numerous telling passages from BPS publications – shows beyond a doubt that the BPS has adopted wholesale the postmodern ideology known as “critical race theory.”
