🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨
Burkina Faso Passes Landmark Religious Freedoms Law: "We Pray Differently, That's No Reason to Hate Each Other!"

Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso June 20, 2026
In a unanimous vote, Burkina Faso’s Transitional Legislative Assembly (ALP) has just passed a major new law on religious freedoms after incorporating 202 amendments into the original bill.

Minister of State Émile Zerbo declared:

“The State stands at equal distance from all religions. It guarantees freedom of conscience, to believe or not to believe. We pray differently — that is not a reason to hate each other.”

What the Law Actually Does:

Fills a long-standing legal vacuum on religious matters.
Strengthens state oversight on places of worship, public preaching, and religious financing.
Aims to combat religious radicalism, extremism, and hate speech.

Protects the right to practice any religion (or none) while preserving national unity and public order.
This comes as Burkina Faso continues its fierce battle against jihadist terrorism that exploits religion. The government calls it a modern, revolutionary law tailored to current Sahel realities.

Reactions:
Passed despite weeks of debate and opposition from some religious leaders, the bill received full support from all 59 lawmakers present.

How many people has Elon Musk personally murdered via his work helping defund USAID? I've run the numbers.

USAID, as people outside of CNN's viewership already know, operates largely as a CIA cutout, placing assets on the ground in countries where the U.S. govt is intervening politically.

USAID was instrumental is helping seed the following revolutions/coup d'états/civil wars:

Serbia — Bulldozer Revolution (Oct. 2000)

Venezuela — coup attempt + sustained OTI funding (April 2002)

Georgia — Rose Revolution (Nov. 2003)

Ukraine — Orange Revolution (2004)

Haiti — Ouster of Aristide (Feb. 2004)

Lebanon — Cedar Revolution (2005)

Belarus — opposition funding, "Jeans Revolution" and after — attempted, failed (2006)

Honduras — Coup against Zelaya (Jun. 2009)

Cuba — ZunZuneo / "Cuban Twitter" — attempted, failed (2010–12)

Tunisia — "Arab Spring" (2011)

Egypt — "Arab Spring" (2011–12)

Ukraine — Euromaidan / Revolution of Dignity (2014)

Bolivia — anti-Morales funding; 2013 expulsion; 2019 ouster

Kyrgyzstan — Tulip Revolution (March 2005)

Without U.S. intervention, it's hard to see how any of these would have gotten off the ground. Some back-of-the-envelope math on these conflicts' bodycount:

Venezuela (2002): 19

Haiti (2004): ~300

Maidan event (2014): ~100+ killed.

Bolivia (2019): 36

Donbas war (2014–2022): 14,200–14,400 military & civilian deaths.

Ukraine full-scale war (2022–present), deaths, both sides, mil + civ: roughly 350,000–500,000 killed.

So far we're up to somewhere north of 365,000 deaths, more likely north of 500K.

What else do we have?

USAID also helped fund poppy (heroin) farmers in Afghanistan. Unfortunately I haven't seen estimates of how many have died as a result of this taxpayer funded drug dealing, but I'm assuming they're not small numbers.

USAID also worked with groups sexually abusing/trafficking children in Kenya (2021), and the Central African Republic (2013).

Much earlier, during Vietnam, USAID helped the CIA arm & feed Hmong guerrillas fighting communist forces (not the worst thing). USAID also helped the Hmong militia & other warlords smuggle opium (a far less forgivable thing).

While the final tally is hard to properly calculate, if past is predicate, in helping shutdown USAID, @elonmusk could be saving hundreds of thousands of lives, thousands of African children, & millions of people around the world susceptible to opiate addiction.

Get this man a Peace Prize, @NobelPrize

The internet is back in Iran.

Now the world is seeing what the regime tried to hide. Many of these protesters never came home.

Watch. Share. Don't stay silent.

🚨 #BREAKING: US UNLEASHES HELL ON IRAN!

​Following Iran's reckless attack on the US military base in Kuwait, the US Army retaliated with absolute fury. B-52 Stratofortress bombers launched over 200+ massive airstrikes, completely obliterating Iran’s drone base in Bandar Abbas!

​IRGC leadership is reportedly in absolute panic and chaos as their key strategic assets turn to ashes. The message is clear: Don't poke the bear. 🇺🇸💥

🇨🇺 Cuba has done it again.

Meet VAXIRA® — a therapeutic cancer vaccine developed by Cuban and Argentine scientists that helps the immune system recognise and destroy lung cancer cells. Approved in both Cuba and Argentina for advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

🔬 It works by mimicking a molecule found on cancer cells but almost entirely absent in healthy human tissue — meaning it targets tumours with remarkable precision and very few side effects.

📊 Clinical trials showed a significant improvement in survival for advanced lung cancer patients, with 1-year survival nearly doubling compared to the control group. Real-world data shows median survival of up to 24.5 months in maintenance therapy.

💉 Minimal side effects. Suitable for long-term use. Affordable and accessible — unlike many Western immunotherapies that price patients out of treatment.

And in 2025, VAXIRA® received Cuba's National Technological Innovation Award. All of this achieved by a country under decades of US economic blockade.

The United States spends billions on cancer research. Cuba, under sanctions, develops vaccines the world hasn't seen before. 🇨🇺🔬

We are also making a GENERATIONAL investment in barracks, military infrastructure, and troop support systems.

U.S. State Department (@StateDept) reporting, including the 2023 and 2024 Human Rights Reports on #Nigeria, makes clear that while judicial independence exists on paper in Nigeria, it is routinely undermined in practice by corruption and political influence.

Tomorrow, April 22, 2026, Nigeria’s Supreme Court will rule in what is widely viewed as a politically motivated case aimed at dismantling the opposition and destabilizing the African Democratic Congress party (@ADCNig).

There is growing concern that certain Justices may elevate procedural technicalities over the rule of law, effectively aiding President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (@OfficialABAT) in consolidating power and pushing Nigeria toward a one party state.

The U.S. State Department is legally required by Congress to monitor and report on the status of judiciaries and human rights in foreign countries pursuant to the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 and the Country Reports on Human Rights Practices requirement. As mandated by law, we are actively monitoring this case and briefing the Department of State on our assessment of the validity of the forthcoming ruling. Any ruling influenced by pressure from the current Nigerian government will be evident to all.

Remember when @TuckerCarlson said the genocide of Christians in Nigeria by ISIS and Boko Haram was made up and not real?

Well, here is a video that is circulating in Nigeria this week. Boko Haram recently released this video telling all Christians in northern Nigeria to convert to Islam or die. In the video they say they are “fighting for prophet Mohammed”, and warned Christians to “convert or you will be killed.” They are saying “this is the teaching of the Prophet Mohammed.”

Your daily reminder that Tucker is not as Christian as he pretends to be.

I wonder when he recited the Shahada?
