In a bold move, President Trump is shaking things up at the Smithsonian, calling for a review to counter what he sees as a "woke" overhaul of American history. Far from erasing the past, he’s pushing to restore balance, arguing that exhibits overly focused on slavery and critical race theory paint a one-sided, negative picture. This isn’t about whitewashing history but about reclaiming a narrative that celebrates America’s achievements while acknowledging its flaws. Liberals are crying foul, but Trump’s team insists it’s time to dial back the ideological slant and let history speak for itself.

Ambassadors to Earth: The Starseed Mission to Elevate Humanity

The time has come for the mass activation and awakening of Starseeds. While each of our individual roads may look different and our paths may vary, the ultimate mission is the same: breaking the karmic concrete that entombs our species. Humanity is stuck in repeating energetic patterns that perpetuate trauma, separation, and the brutalization of life. As long as this etheric concrete remains intact, the collective remains trapped beneath it.

Chinese scientists are pushing boundaries with the world’s first "pregnancy robot," a humanoid designed to carry and birth a human baby using an artificial womb, with a prototype expected by 2026 for around $14,000. Proponents claim it could revolutionize fertility treatments, offering hope to those struggling with infertility or same-sex couples seeking biological children. However, the technology has ignited a firestorm of controversy. Critics denounce it as a dangerous step toward "dehumanizing" reproduction, arguing it severs the sacred maternal bond and reduces childbirth to a mechanical process. Ethical concerns also swirl around the psychological impact on babies born via robot, with fears of commodifying human life. The project, backed by China’s tech giants, has sparked global debate.

Does this technology herald a dystopian future, or is it a leap forward in human progress? Let us hear your thoughts below. 👇

Jimmy Lai, the fiery founder of Hong Kong’s pro-democracy press, now faces the final chapter of a trial that could cost him his life. Once a barefoot stowaway from mainland China, Lai rose from factory floors to billionaire mogul—then transformed into Beijing’s loudest critic. His newspaper, Apple Daily, dared to speak truth to power until it was silenced under China’s sweeping national security law. Now 77 and imprisoned since 2020, Lai stands accused of colluding with foreign forces. If convicted, he faces life in prison. To supporters, he is a hero—an unflinching voice for freedom in a city losing its autonomy. To Beijing, he is a traitor. As closing arguments begin, Lai’s trial has become more than a legal battle — it's a symbol of Hong Kong’s fading freedoms.
