Par AFP Par Pirate IRWIN, Arno TARRINI © 2026 AFP Il y a deux semaines, Gianni Infantino était sur le toit du monde, porté par le succès global de la Coupe du monde nord-américaine. Après l'échec de son projet de réforme de la Fifa, le patron du foot mondial semble aujourd'hui fragilisé comme jamais.Illustration de l'impression de puissance qu'il dégageait encore le 19 juillet à l'issue de la finale du Mondial, l'Italo-Suisse avait couru pour tenter d'obliger Donald Trump, qui s'attardait sur le podium, à ne pas voler la vedette aux Espagnols champions du monde.Imperméable aux critiques pendant ce tournoi hors norme, Infantino semblait intouchable, prêt à poursuivre son règne sans opposition après ce qu'il considère comme "la meilleure Coupe du monde de l'histoire". La plus rentable, aussi, avec près de 15 milliards de dollars de revenus générés, 6,6 millions de spectateurs dans les stades et des records d'audiences télévisées.Deux semaines ont passé, et l'ex-secrétaire général de l'UEFA, arrivé à la tête de la Fifa en 2016, est aujourd'hui dans les cordes, lâché par ses plus proches collaborateurs et contraint de renoncer à son projet d'ouvrir les Coupes du monde aux investisseurs privés, une ligne rouge pour une grande ...

Sixty-thousand people — roughly the population of Loughborough. That is how many migrants just forced their way into the Spanish town of Ceuta, a coastal enclave on the Moroccan side of the Strait of Gibraltar. Dozens died climbing over barbed wire fences, even as Spain's armed forces hastily started mobilizing. In a sense, none of this is new: Ceuta and its sister enclave Melilla have long been a source of tension between Madrid and Rabat, with Morocco claiming the territories as its own. Yet though Morocco has also used its control over migration flows into Ceuta to extract concessions from Spain and the EU before, the scale this time is remarkable. Continue Reading »

California's statewide minimum wage is set to rise next year. Starting on Jan. 1, 2027, the statewide minimum wage will rise to $17.40 an hour, an increase Gov. Gavin Newsom boasted about on Friday. Newsom — who has been eyeing a 2028 presidential run — said in a statement that California's fiscal policies helped turn the state into "one of the strongest economies in the world" while the Trump administration and the Republican-led Congress fail to address "everyday cost pressures for working families." The federal minimum wage has remained at $7.25 per hour since 2009. Continue Reading »

Governor Gavin Newsom announced Friday that California's statewide minimum wage will increase to $17.40 per hour beginning January 1, 2027.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris said Friday that the United States should consider expanding the Supreme Court to be made up of 13 justices, a popular idea among Democrats who have increasingly pushed for court reform. "We need to revisit the point of expanding the court to 13 justices like we have 13 district courts," Harris said at the National Urban League's annual conference in Nashville, also calling for a review of the Electoral College and statehood for Puerto Rico and Washington, DC. The federal judiciary has 13 circuit courts and 94 district courts, according to the Department of Justice. Continue Reading »

Former Vice President Kamala Harris is suggesting that the United States "revisit" the Electoral College and add four more justices to the Supreme Court.

The Democrat-dominated Massachusetts state Senate passed a late-term abortion bill on Friday and sent it to Gov. Maura Healey's (D) desk for approval. The bill, called "An Act Prioritizing Patient Access to Care" or H.5595, would ultimately allow unborn babies to be aborted throughout pregnancy in the state and would strike down the state's current 24-week limit, which has exceptions for the life of the mother and a deadly fetal diagnosis. Under the bill, doctors would have the discretion to decide whether or not to perform a late-term abortion, the Washington Post reported. "While this legislation prioritizes access, it does not prioritize a woman's safety," Myrna Maloney Flynn, president of Massachusetts Citizens for Life, said in a video encouraging supporters to tell lawmakers to vote against the bill...

Massachusetts is on the way to giving doctors the final say on whether an abortion should be allowed late in pregnancy, a move expected to affect few cases but that supporters say is needed because hospitals are now turning away women they should be serving.

Under current Massachusetts law, abortion is legal for the first 24 weeks of pregnancy... Continue Reading »

The White House on Friday responded to questions about reports of a potential expansion of U.S. military operations against Iran, saying President Donald Trump remains committed to a diplomatic resolution but will continue responding to Iranian attacks. In a statement to Fox News Digital, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said: "The United States signed an MOU with Iran and they broke it, shot at commercial ships, and killed American soldiers. President Trump is not going to stand by and allow this terrorist behavior to occur. Iran will continue to pay until they come to the table in, what President Trump deems, a meaningful way."...

Voters want candidates to start talking about economic issues, because those are the issues that matter most to voters, Pew Research Center found in a newly released survey. But if the economy is the top concern — if it is still, as former President Bill Clinton famously said, "It's the economy, stupid" — then the worst outcome of November's elections would be wins by socialists. Or democratic socialists. Or DSA-backed Democrats — whatever they're calling themselves then. Fact is, socialists have a long and inglorious history of destroying entire nations' economies, devastating the means of production — including the human will to produce — and starving the populations to the point of mass death...

Federal prosecutors have dropped the criminal case against former U.S. Olympian David "Davey" Hearn after concluding that damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was caused by a flawed installation rather than vandalism. U.S. Attorney for D.C., Jeanine Pirro filed a motion Friday to dismiss the felony destruction of government property charge, citing newly developed evidence showing that the pool's liner had failed because of installation defects.

Tens of thousands of Virginians have had their voting rights restored thanks to a move from Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger, her office announced on Friday. Elections have consequences, to quote the truism. And as Republicans nationwide launch schemes to winnow the pool of eligible voters ahead of the midterms, it's important to note that one consequence of Democrats' victory in Virginia's gubernatorial race last year is that many people who had been barred from voting will get to participate in the franchise this year...

Crack Pipes, Get Yer' Crack Pipes! Free Crack Pipes!: California Taxpayers Fund Drug Paraphernalia Authored by Christopher F. Rufo, Austen Hufford via Christopher Rufo's Substack, As governor of California, Gavin Newsom has repeatedly supported "harm reduction" policies, which enable drug use in the name of making it "safer." He created the state's Harm Reduction Initiative, which funded "syringe services programs" for "people who inject and smoke fentanyl and/or methamphetamines." His Department of Public Health has endorsed distributing syringes, glass pipes, and "[c]ontainers for mixing injectable drugs" to drug users. Newsom argued earlier this year that harm-reduction tactics "increase the likelihood of people entering substance use treatment." But do California's harm-reduction programs encourage addicts to enter treatment? We visited the Skid Row Care Campus, a homeless-services site in Los Angeles County, to witness "harm reduction" in action. We discovered that, instead of directing addicts to get clean, the taxpayer-funded program doles out free paraphernalia, enabling addicts to get high - no questions asked. We arrived at Skid Row in the morning. The campus, bounded by pastel-colored buildings and a metal gate, looked like an apocalyptic wasteland. Homeless people and addicts were splayed ...

Trump Says "Perimeters Of A Deal Reached" With Iran To Reopen Hormuz After Call With Saudi Crown Prince The past few days have been tense. Although no US strikes were launched from Friday night into Saturday morning and the Gulf region remained quiet early Sunday, anticipation surrounding President Trump's next move is keeping energy traders and Gulf governments on edge. The big concern is that another round of strikes could trigger a wider regional conflict, particularly as the Iranian-backed Houthis have reactivated offensive operations in the southern Red Sea in recent weeks. The Trump administration and Department of War may pursue de-escalation from here after Trump wrote on Truth Social late Saturday night: "We have just been asked by Iran, and other Middle Eastern Countries, to hold off any attack in that the perimeters of a deal has been agreed to." "Tonight from 9:36 PM to 9:37 PM the S&P 500 price on Hyperliquid spiked bigly, and I couldn't figure out why... ...then Trump posted his TACO @ 10:05 PM. THEN I understood why," X user Stanphyl Capital wrote. That de-esclation pathway was followed by a new signal early Sudnay from Saudi ... Continue Reading »

Obama-Appointed Judge Defies SCOTUS, Now Faces Impeachment Authored by Matt Margolis via PJ Media, An Obama-appointed federal judge just decided the Supreme Court's rulings are more like suggestions, and Republicans in Congress are done pretending she has the authority to make that call. U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs issued an order on Friday blocking the Trump administration from ending Temporary Protected Status for Somali nationals. It was a brazen display of judicial activism, and it took Republicans about a weekend to respond. 🚨 A federal judge has again blocked the Trump administration from ending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somalia, issuing a new administrative stay after plaintiffs filed an amended complaint and emergency motion. pic.twitter.com/6l1hYYPqNH — SCOTUS Wire (@scotus_wire) July 31, 2026 Rep.

Female Bomber Kills At Least 3, Injures 21, At Upscale Moscow Restaurant A bomb ripped through a central Moscow upscale restaurant mid-evening on Saturday in what authorities are calling a "brutal terrorist act" - which left three people dead and wounded at least 21. "Yesterday, a brutal terrorist act was committed in Moscow that claimed human lives. The victims are currently in the city’s hospitals, where they are receiving all necessary care," Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin stated Sunday. via BBC The location was at Kudrinkskaya Square outside an Italian restaurant, in one ⁠of Moscow’s seven Stalin-era skyscrapers, police described. Russia's anti-terrorism ‌committee stated the culprit was an ‌unidentified woman carrying ​an improvised explosive device who tried get into the restaurant before being stopped by a security guard, who was killed in the subsequent blast, along with a customer. The Guardian notes that the death toll could climb as many victims are being treated at area hospitals: REN TV cited a source on Sunday as saying that two people who had been taken to hospital had later died of their wounds, bringing the death toll to five, but there was no official confirmation. The channel said six people ... Continue Reading »

Marxist Terror Group Responsible For Colombian Truck Bomb Attack Summary: VBIED Attack Comes Days Before President-Elect Abelardo de la Espriella's Inauguration Marxist-Leninist Terror Group Responsible For Truck Bomb Attack Twin Car Bombs Rock Colombian City Days Before Trump-Backed "El Tigre" Takes Power Marxist-Leninist Terror Group Responsible For Truck Bomb Attack  The Colombian government blamed the far-left, Marxist-Leninist ELN for the truck bombing outside a police headquarters in the border city of Cúcuta, which injured 11 officers and killed a police dog. The early Saturday morning VBIED attack damaged the building's roof and shattered its windows, according to police chief Gen. William Rincón. "This was a vile terrorist attack," Rincón told AP News.

From Influence Peddler To Starving Artist: Hunter Biden Claims Family Is Broke In Defaulting On $17 Million Bill Authored by Jonathan Turley, Hunter Biden is no Van Gogh. In addition to having both ears, Hunter’s work has generally been panned beyond an enabling media following. However, he claims he is also a starving artist. The problem appears to be that, as predicted years ago, his sales dried up in the influence-peddling market once his father left office. Now, his lawyers want him to cough up $17 million that he owes them. Hunter says that not only is he broke, but so is his family. In a deposition in ongoing litigation with the law firm Winston Taylor, Hunter claimed an inability to pay the $17 million he owes his lawyers for representing him in criminal prosecutions, congressional investigations, and civil lawsuits. Hunter claimed under oath that “I don’t own anything of any value other than — and I don’t know the value of it — my paintings which I painted myself. So that’s it. And I don’t even have any other assets at all, stocks, bonds, anything like that, savings accounts.” He also added, “My family doesn’t have ... Continue Reading »

'Defend Israel Or The Homeland': Top US General Issues Stark Warning To Pentagon Brass Via The Cradle The highest-ranking US general in Europe informed the Pentagon this week that he does not have enough naval units to protect Israel against potential Iranian missile strikes, according to a report by the Washington Post on Saturday. General Alexus Grynkewich, the head of US European Command (EUCOM), notified senior Pentagon officials in writing that without another navy destroyer, he will be forced to choose between defending the US "homeland" and defending Israel. Grynkewich's warning comes as US President Donald Trump continues to escalate the war on Iran. Gen. Alex Grynkewich, source: US Air Force Senior Airman Spencer Perkins The US Navy has shouldered a significant burden in waging the war, including responsibility for blockading Iranian ports in response to the Islamic Republic's closure of the Strait of Hormuz. US naval destroyers in the eastern Mediterranean have long been part of Israel's defense strategy. They are equipped with radar systems and missile interceptors capable of countering Iranian ballistic missiles and drones. EUCOM is responsible for protecting Israel from the Mediterranean and deterring any Russian ground incursion into NATO member states. The US ... Continue Reading »

Entitled Migrants Complain About Hospitality And Prices After Invading Spanish Territory One of the most egregious fantasies promoted by liberals over the past several decades is the worshipful image of the desperate and grateful third world asylum seeker.  We see it constantly in movies television and popular media; the narrative of the "huddled masses, yearning to breathe free..."  This narrative has become so ingrained in western culture that it is absolutely world shattering when people find out how entitled and arrogant most migrants really are. The flood of over 60,000 Muslim migrants from Morocco to the Spanish enclave of Ceuta has dashed a lot of progressive delusions in the past week, with migrants fresh from the beaches already looting businesses, raiding homes, attacking locals and setting fires.  European officials are reluctantly admitting that the invasion is a problem that must be corrected.    The video evidence on social media is a crushing blow to the multicultural agenda, so much so that Ursula von der Leyen, head of the European Commission, complained about the optics of the images coming out of Ceuta on social media.  The images coming from Ceuta are unacceptable. We cannot allow ... Continue Reading »

"Nothing Is 100%": CZ Warns Bitcoin Holders After $89 Million Coldcard Wallet Exploit Update (1030ET): A third wave of thefts against Bitcoin wallets built on flawed Coldcard firmware ran through Saturday morning, lifting observed losses to roughly 1,367 BTC - close to $89 million - drained from 4,585 addresses since Thursday. As Cyberkendra.com reports, the size is not the interesting part. The third wave is the first one designed to be hard to follow, and that shift tells self-custody holders more about what happens next than any dollar figure does. Galaxy Research published the wave-three findings early Sunday. Between 12:23 UTC on July 31 and 06:42 UTC on August 1, across blocks 960,396 to 960,471, another 207.73 BTC left 1,912 addresses. That is roughly a tenth of a coin per victim. Wave one, which opened at 01:10 UTC on July 30 and closed 41 minutes later, took 1,082.65 BTC from 1,195 addresses — nearly a full coin each. Wave two, on July 31, collected just 76.16 BTC from 1,478 addresses. Median losses tell the same story more bluntly: 0.270 BTC in wave one, 0.010 in wave two, 0.013 in wave three. The operator is now ... Continue Reading »

No, The Spanish Invaders Have Not All Just 'Gone Home' Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity News, Spanish authorities and their leftist allies are pushing the line that the tens of thousands of migrants who stormed Ceuta have mostly "gone home." The claim is pure fantasy. Fresh video from the streets shows the city still under siege, with invaders assaulting facilities, smashing graves, clashing with locals, and turning a Spanish enclave into a no-go zone. This is the same dangerous mass migration reality that open-borders ideologues keep denying, even as the evidence piles up in real time. The official narrative landed hard on Friday. Spain's Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares declared that "the practical totality of those who entered Ceuta have already returned to Morocco." The Spanish Embassy in the UK amplified the message, insisting almost everyone was gone, that no one could reach the mainland without ID checks, and that Schengen integrity remained fully guaranteed. Almost everyone who entered Ceuta yesterday has now returned to Morocco. It is not possible to travel from Ceuta or Melilla to mainland Spain without presenting identification at a police checkpoint. The integrity of the Schengen area ... Continue Reading »

Water-System Hacks Hit 7 States This Week, FBI Warns, As Trump Shoots Down Iran Theory Cyberattacks on municipal water systems were reported in at least seven states this week, according to a joint public service announcement from the FBI and the Environmental Protection Agency - and in some cases, the agencies say, the malicious activity actually degraded water operations. The feds declined to name the states. A water tower in Plymouth, Minnesota, on Thursday after a cyberattack targeted the operating technology at more than 30 water systems across the state. (Ellen Schmidt/AP Photo/Ellen Schmidt) The warning lands just days after we reported that a "coordinated cyberattack" struck more than 30 community water systems in Minnesota over July 26-27 - knocking the water plant in tiny Braham offline for a stretch, pushing Plymouth and South St. Paul onto manual operations, and prompting Maple Plain to declare a local state of emergency, according to Just The News. The playbook, per federal officials, was crude but effective: attackers remotely accessed internet-facing operational technology, changed device IP addresses and passwords, and locked utility operators out of their own monitoring and control systems, NBC News reported. The PSA ... Continue Reading »

Spain's Immigration Crisis: Ceuta & The Collapse Of Sánchez's Pro-Migration Experiment Authored by Daniel Lacalle, The new migration crisis in Ceuta is not an isolated episode or a simple border emergency. It is the result of a deeply irresponsible and damaging political and economic model. Sánchez boasts about aggregate growth while destroying cohesion, productivity, net real income per capita, and institutions. Spain is not an example of growth, migrant integration, or cohesion. It is a statistical mirage juiced by population increase and a fiscal time bomb. It has taken a migration crisis for the European Union to wake up. Illegal immigration is not a stroke of fate or a recipe for growth and for shoring up public finances; it is a strategy of control and demolition of the nation from within, with the aim of creating a dependent, captive underclass, buying votes by altering demographics and shifting onto future generations the enormous cost to the state of a population increase whose net contribution to public accounts is overwhelmingly negative. Spain was presented by progressives as a model of migrant integration. It was never true, and now it has become a full‑blown crisis. ... Continue Reading »

UK High Court Moves To Ban Display Of English And British Flags Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity News, A Liberal Democrat council has secured a High Court injunction that effectively bans the unauthorised display of the St George's Cross and Union Flag on lampposts and public highways across an entire English county. What began as a grassroots campaign to raise the colours of the nation has been declared a threat to community safety, with the full force of the courts now deployed against it. Oxfordshire County Council, run by the Liberal Democrats, won its landmark case after months of legal action against the Raise the Colours campaign. High Court approves injunction to BAN Britons hanging Union and St George's flags on lampposts. https://t.co/jWvRfTdcjK — GB News (@GBNEWS) August 1, 2026 Justice Dexter Dias granted the order prohibiting unidentified persons from attaching England or Union flags to highway infrastructure or painting flag imagery on roads.

A Brain That Can Swap Bodies: Google DeepMind Aims To Be The 'Android' Of Robotics Google DeepMind unveiled Gemini Robotics 2 on Wednesday, a suite of three AI models that gives humanoid and other robots whole-body control, sharper manipulation, and the ability to work together. The system can run locally on the robot itself and adapt to an entirely new machine body with a few hours of training data. DeepMind is pitching it as the "intelligence layer" for robots - the foundational operating system that every hardware maker builds on. Rather than a single monolithic system, the company released three models across three access tiers: Gemini Robotics 2: A vision-language-action model that turns what a robot sees and is told into motor commands. It can drive a full humanoid from feet to fingertips, as well as standard two-armed systems. Gemini Robotics ER 2: An embodied-reasoning model that plans multi-step jobs over several minutes, recovers from failures, and lets multiple robots split a workflow between them. Gemini Robotics On-Device 2: A lightweight version that runs directly on the hardware, for industrial settings where cloud connectivity is unreliable or unavailable. DeepMind demonstrated a single model checkpoint ... Continue Reading »

McGlinchey: Trump's Damage To US Diplomacy Could Last A Generation By Brian McGlinchey via Stark Realities As the US-Israel war on Iran grinds into its sixth month, it’s clear to all but the most intellectually-dishonest Trump loyalists and war-bent Israel-sympathizers that it’s been a spectacular failure. A war of aggression that was supposed to precipitate a revolution has instead galvanized popular support of the Iranian government in defiance of the country’s tormentors, who’ve killed thousands of their fellow citizens and destroyed civilian infrastructure. A war that was launched to neutralize Israel’s principal rival seems certain to leave that rival far more geopolitically powerful than before, while driving Americans’ support for Israel to record lows. Beyond unforgivably throwing away the lives of 18 American service members in an unconstitutional war launched on false pretenses, Trump’s blunder has depleted America’s arsenal and pushed the country more than $100 billion deeper into debt. Meanwhile, the longer Trump delays the inevitable consummation of his defeat, the greater the risk of an economic calamity that engulfs not only the United States but the entire world. If that latter nightmare can be sidestepped, we’ll likely find that Trump has inflicted his most ... Continue Reading »

New Jersey Offers Taxpayer-Funded Legal Services To Noncitizens Improperly Registered To Vote This week, New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill revealed that more than 6,600 noncitizens ended up on its voter rolls, with nearly 400 of them casting ballots between June 2023 and June 2024. Despite saying the situation is unacceptable and claiming that she is being proactive to fix it, her administration has also begun steering the same noncitizens toward taxpayer-funded legal help. Sherrill promptly blamed the software vendor, IDEMIA, for the problem. "Let me be clear: this entire situation is unacceptable," Sherrill said Tuesday. "It's unacceptable that the vendor released software with such a glaring error, it's unacceptable that the MVC took a year to get this issue fixed and it's unacceptable that no one in the previous administration brought this to light, demanded accountability or took action when it happened years ago." However, they dispute her characterization and have offered a different characterization of who was responsible. "IDEMIA works with the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, and has for more than 40 years, to support the process through which eligible individuals may indicate their interest in registering to vote when applying for ...

CCP Bans Sale Of Retired Military Equipment, Citing Security Risks Authored by Alex Wu via The Epoch Times, The Chinese regime's military and public security authorities have jointly issued an order banning the sale, assembly, and marketing of retired military equipment, citing "security risks to military secrets." Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) soldiers take part in military training at Pamir Mountains in Kashgar, northwestern China's Xinjiang region, on Jan. 4, 2021. STR/AFP via Getty Images The Notice on Prohibiting Sales Activities Involving Retired or Scrapped Military Equipment was issued on July 28 by the Chinese regime's six central governmental departments, including the top defense command and decision-making body of the Chinese military - Central Military Commission's Logistics Support Department, Equipment Development Department, and Political and Legal Affairs Commission, along with the Ministry of Public Security, the State Administration for Market Regulation, and the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense. The notice acknowledges that, in recent years, some vendors have openly sold - both online and offline - retired or scrapped military equipment containing sensitive information, resulting in "adverse effects" and creating "security risks." It also said one of the ... Continue Reading »

Collision Next Week: Spent SpaceX Rocket Set To Slam Into Moon A spent SpaceX Falcon 9 upper stage is forecast to slam into the moon near Einstein Crater early Wednesday morning, potentially producing the first impact plume observed from Earth against the lunar surface's sunlit side. William Jo, a doctoral candidate at the University of Texas at Austin's Cockrell School of Engineering, and five co-authors posted a preprint to arXiv detailing the expected lunar impact of the spent upper stage rocket. Using a high-resolution physics simulation, the researchers modeled what could happen when roughly 3,900 kilograms of hollow rocket hardware slams into the lunar surface: On Aug. 5 at 06:34 UTC, a Falcon 9 upper stage (~3,900 kg) will strike the lunar surface at 2.43 km/s, yielding a potentially visible debris plume. We present a study of the expected impact dynamics and resulting possibly observable debris field. The debris plume should reach roughly 15 to 20 km in altitude for the ejecta curtain and 75 to 100 km for the central ejecta spike, extend 183 km laterally from the impact point near the sunlit limb, and yield a peak dust column density ...

Disease Caused By Cyclospora Parasite Now In 45 States: CDC A disease caused by a parasite called Cyclospora has been recorded in 45 states this summer, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in an update. Delaware, Oregon, South Dakota, and Vermont have now logged cases of cyclosporiasis, the disease, the CDC said on July 28. The CDC in its previous update had said 41 states had reported cases. The number of confirmed cases across the 45 states since May 1 is up to 6,707, according to the CDC. More than 11,500 other cases have been reported but are pending laboratory confirmation or “further investigation and analysis, such as ruling out international travel,” the CDC said. The agency is not counting cases involving international travel or probable cases. Patients have ranged in age from 1 to 98, with a median age of 44. “We estimate a 6-week reporting lag between illness onset and case reporting to CDC, so we anticipate that case counts will continue to rise as data are received,” the CDC said. As Zachary Steieber reports for The Epoch Times, cyclosporiasis typically appears in the summer, but the number of cases this year ... Continue Reading »
