Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has hailed the US campus movement against the Israeli-American genocidal war on Gaza as a righteous endeavor, which he rightly states has placed them on the right side of history.
💬 “Dear university students in the United States of America, this message is an expression of our empathy and solidarity with you. As the page of history is turning, you are standing on the right side of it,” reads the letter from Ayatollah Khamenei, describing them as the new “branch of the Resistance Front.”
💬 “You have now formed a branch of the Resistance Front and have begun an honorable struggle in the face of your government's ruthless pressure—an administration that openly backs the usurper and brutal Zionist regime,” the letter adds.
Noting that the greater Resistance Front has been resolutely engaged for decades in the struggle to end “the blatant oppression that the brutal Zionist terrorist network has inflicted on the Palestinian nation,” Ayatollah Khamenei described Palestine as an independent land—comprising Muslims, Christians, and Jews—with a long history. ● In honoring the pro-Palestine movement initiated by students at Columbia University, which has now expanded to many other universities across the US and other countries, Ayatollah Khamenei assured of imminent changes in the global state of affairs.
■ The Letter of Imam Khamenei to US University Students (June 2nd, 2024)
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) is attempting to prevent the release of the audio of the infamous “memory interview” between US President Joe Biden and special counsel Robert Hur, arguing that "deepfakes" may appear as a result. [...] While the DOJ admits that there is plenty of “other raw material to create a deepfake of President Biden’s voice” available to unscrupulous actors, it argues that if the public became aware that the legitimate recording was released, they would be more apt to believe a fake recording is legitimate. It is not known how the court will respond to the strange reasoning. If a legitimate copy of the recording were released, it stands to reason it would become easier –not more difficult– to disprove fake versions.
Democrats have introduced legislation to terminate Secret Service protection for “convicted felons” in cases including “a former president” as the plan to destroy Trump through lawfare enters the next phase. | Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-MS), Ranking Member of the Committee on Homeland Security, introduced the Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable Former Protectees Act or the DISGRACED Former Protectees Act (H.R. 8081) in April. [...] The legislation has not been voted on yet. It is co-sponsored by Democrat Reps. Troy A. Carter Sr., Barbara Lee, Frederica Wilson, Yvette D. Clarke, Bonnie Watson Coleman, Jasmine Crockett, Joyce Beatty, and Steve Cohen. The result of Trump’s political show trial in New York could have further ramifications for the presumptive GOP presidential nominee.
White House national security spokesman John Kirby defended Israel slaughtering displaced Palestinians with airstrikes in a tent city in Rafah by throwing the US military under the bus and stating that “we” Americans “did the same thing.” | Asked by a reporter Tuesday what the consequences would be “if there were an American strike on a legitimate terrorist target that ended resulting with 45 civilian deaths and some 200 others injured,” Kirby replied, “I can’t answer a hypothetical like that.” ● “But we have conducted airstrikes in places like Iraq and Afghanistan, where tragically we caused civilian casualties,” he continued. “We did the same thing. We owned up to it. We investigated it. And we tried to make changes… We tried to learn from it to make changes so that those mistakes wouldn’t happen again.” ● Retired US General Mark Milley earlier this month offered up the same bizarre defense of Israel when he said at a public conference that “we” in America also “slaughtered people in massive numbers — innocent people who had nothing to do with their government.”

The Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, under whose leadership the state of Israel is committing Genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, was formally invited to deliver an address to the United States congress, in an invitation signed by the top four Congressional leaders. | The letter was sent and signed by Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and also bears the signatures of the other three Congressional leaders:
The fact that the top four members of Congress invited this genocidal maniac to address Congress, shows, in one fell swoop, the leadership of the United States Congress are all illegitimate. Of course, most Americans knew that after an earlier Congress rubber-stamped the stolen 2020 Presidential election, which gave the country its first illegitimate president, Joe Biden. If Netanyahu accepts the invitation, will Americans decide to turn his visit into a sort of January 6 version 2.0 at the U.S. Capital?

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken admits that the US approved the Ukrainian request to use US-supplied weapons to strike Russia. | The US admitted on Friday that it approved the Ukrainian request to use US-supplied weapons to conduct strikes on Russia, explaining that the green light was given on condition that the Ukrainians would limit their strikes to the border areas of Kharkiv, where Russian forces entered in early May.
💬 "Over the past few weeks, Ukraine came to us and asked for the authorization to use weapons that we're providing to defend against this aggression, including against Russian forces that are massing on the Russian side of the border, and then attacking Ukraine. And that went right to the president. And as you've heard, he's approved the use of our weapons for that purpose," Secretary of State Antony Blinken told a press conference following an informal meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Prague.

US officials reveal that Biden secretly approved Ukrainian strikes on Russian territories using US-supplied weapons. | United States President Joe Biden has secretly lifted restrictions on Ukraine's use of US-supplied weapons against targets in Russian territory, US officials told Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Thursday. ● According to US officials, Biden made the move "only to defend the under-fire" Kharkov region against Russian forces. The news agency says that Biden has come under increasing pressure from Ukrainian officials urging him to further ease the ban on the use of the weapons.

The report, which prompted Stacy Gilbert to resign, said Israel's conduct did not breach US law on humanitarian aid. | A US State Department official who quit this week said on Thursday her resignation was precipitated by an administration report to Congress that she said falsely stated Israel was not blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza, prompting her to resign in protest of President Joe Biden's Israel policy.

Fifty-seven years ago during the Six-Day War (June 8, 1967), Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) brutally attacked a U.S. naval intelligence ship that was seconded to the National Security Agency (NSA) for intercepting communications in the Middle East. Thirty-four American sailors were killed in the attack, and 171 were wounded by unmarked Mirage fighter aircraft using cannons and rockets. Israeli boats fired machine guns at close range at those helping the wounded, including a Soviet naval vessel that was trying to rescue U.S. sailors; they also machine-gunned life rafts that survivors had dropped in hopes of abandoning the ship. The Israelis immediately called the disaster a “random accident.” It wasn’t “random” and it wasn’t an “accident,” but the NSA investigation of the assault remains classified to this day.

Documentary filmmaker Morgan Spurlock has tragically died at 53 after a short battle with turbo cancer. | Spurlock is best known for his groundbreaking exposé “Super Size Me” where he chronicled the effects of consuming only McDonald’s for a month. ● He died this week from terminal cancer at the age of 53. Spurlock’s brother, Craig, broke the news to Variety on Friday, saying, “It was a sad day, as we said goodbye to my brother Morgan.” ● The filmmaker, who had been receiving chemotherapy treatment, evidently promoted the Covid-19 vaccine, prompting many to speculate the jab may have caused Spurlock to develop “turbo cancer.” “Morgan refused to listen to those of us who tried to warn him and others about the dangers of the shots,” wrote health reporter Erin Elizabeth on X, mentioning she’d previously met him.
Jonathan Turley Says Jury’s Latest Move Suggests ‘At Least One Juror’ Is Not Convinced | Amidst the relentless hum of New York City, the courtroom drama featuring former President Donald Trump took a curious twist Wednesday afternoon. As the jury sent a second note requesting further instructions, the air shifted as Trump’s defense team shared a guarded smile, hinting at newfound optimism. Meanwhile the District Attorney’s representatives could not mask their growing apprehension. ● The jury is set to deliberate over 34 counts of falsified business records related to a hush money payment to adult film actor Stormy Daniels. NBC’s Katherine Doyle reported at 1:05 PM PDT: “The district attorney’s team looks tense and apprehensive. Todd Blanche, on Trump’s defense team, just cracked a tight smile. Trump, Blanche and Emil Bove, another one of Trump’s attorneys, are whispering among themselves and look newly animated.”
A disturbing new study has uncovered evidence from official government data showing that deaths among people vaccinated for Covid have been recorded as being unvaccinated. | The move apparently sought to make the Covid mRNA injections appear “safe” while also stoking fear among the unvaccinated by showing a false spike in deaths of people who purportedly hadn’t received the shots. ● The alarming discovery was found in the database of the UK government’s Office for National Statistics (ONS) for mortality rates in 2021. ● Initially, the official figures suggested a large spike in deaths for the non-Covid vaccinated. These figures appeared to support the narrative that people were more likely to die by not taking the “safe and effective” injections. However, researchers discovered that the vaccination status of the dead had been altered.
