FBI warns of ISIS terror in Pride Month
The FBI and Department of Homeland Security recently issued a warning about potential threats from foreign terrorist organizations targeting LGBTQ+ events during Pride Month, held annually in June.
The warning stems from concerns about the heightened risk of anti-LGBTQ+ violence and extremism.
Specifically, the agencies mentioned groups like ISIS exploiting Pride events to incite or carry out violence.
This advisory comes as the eighth anniversary of the Pulse nightclub shooting approaches, an attack that was praised by ISIS sympathizers, the Daily Express has reported.

Biden and Trump agree to 2 presidential debates
Both President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump have accepted invitations from CNN to debate on June 27, marking an unusually early confrontation that will shape the trajectory of the 2024 campaign’s final months.
Biden confirmed his acceptance in a post on X, urging Trump to follow suit, to which Trump later responded positively to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins.
Additionally, both candidates agreed to a second debate on September 10, hosted by ABC.
This development follows a back-and-forth exchange initiated by Biden’s campaign, which called for early debates and formally withdrew from the Commission on Presidential Debates’ scheduled fall debates.
Trump swiftly agreed to the earlier debate proposal, emphasizing his willingness to debate under any circumstances, CNN has reported.

RFK Jr. accuses Biden, Trump of ‘colluding’ to exclude him from debates
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an independent candidate, accused President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump of collusion to keep him out of upcoming debates.
Biden and Trump had accepted invitations for debates hosted by CNN and ABC News. However, Kennedy doesn’t currently meet CNN’s criteria for participation.
Despite this, Kennedy’s campaign stated he would accept an invitation if he qualified. Kennedy expressed frustration at being excluded, claiming it undermines democracy.
Both CNN and ABC News set criteria similar to those of the Commission on Presidential Debates, which has faced criticism in the past for its exclusionary criteria, NBC News has reported.

Archaeologists discover ancient Roman artifacts in UK
Archaeologists working on a major road development in the Cotswolds believe they have discovered a trove of Roman artifacts along the A417 route.
The site has yielded artifacts dating back as far as 12,000 years, including pieces from the Neolithic period.
Among the finds are a rare cupid figurine, a Roman nail cleaner, pottery, coins, and jewelry.
These items were showcased at a public event held at Gloucester Guildhall.
According to Alex Thompson, project manager from Oxford Cotswold Archaeology, the settlement likely served travelers along Ermin Street, the road connecting Roman Cirencester and Gloucester.
The team theorizes that the site may have offered services such as horse care or exchange, with evidence of stabling or overnight accommodation, the BBC reported.

Erdogan confirms ancient Istanbul church converted to mosque
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan confirmed the reopening of a mosque in Istanbul, formerly an ancient Byzantine Orthodox church, despite objections from Greece.
Erdogan made the announcement during a meeting with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis aimed at improving bilateral relations.
The converted church, known as the Kariye mosque, underwent extensive restoration and will be open to all visitors.
Mitsotakis expressed dissatisfaction with the conversion, emphasizing the cultural significance of the monument listed as UNESCO world heritage.
Originally a church, the building was converted into a mosque after the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople in 1453 and later into a museum, Barron’s reported.

Europe is getting ready for ‘WWIII’
Amid escalating tensions globally, particularly in the Middle East, Indo-Pacific, and East-West relations, the UK and European countries are facing the prospect of major military threats.
Consequently, nations are reversing peacetime policies to bolster their military capabilities. This includes ramping up defence spending and investing in new technologies and equipment.
The conflict in Ukraine serves as a stark example, where Western-supplied weaponry has been crucial in repelling Russian invaders.
After years of reduced military capabilities, the UK and Europe are shifting towards a “war economy,” with increased defence spending and focus on defence production and technology development.
NATO aims for member states to allocate 2% of GDP to defence spending, with a portion dedicated to new military technologies, the Daily Mail has reported.

Africa’s undersea internet cables CUT for third this time this year
Recent damage to undersea internet cables serving African countries has sparked concerns over the continent’s network vulnerabilities, marking the third widespread disruption this year.
Cuts to the EASSy and Seacom cables caused varying levels of internet disruption in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Mozambique, Malawi, and Madagascar.
Efforts to restore connectivity are underway, with operators seeking alternative capacity from other undersea cable partners.
The outage in Tanzania was severe enough to prompt the closure of the US embassy to the public for two days, Semafor has reported.

Fed Chair Powell says inflation has been higher than thought
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized during the annual general meeting of the Foreign Bankers’ Association in Amsterdam that inflation is declining more slowly than anticipated, indicating that the central bank will maintain its current stance for an extended period.
Despite expectations for inflation to decrease over the year, Powell noted that this hasn’t materialized yet.
He emphasized the need for patience and indicated a likelihood of maintaining the current policy rate rather than raising it.
Powell’s remarks echoed sentiments expressed during the May 1 Federal Open Market Committee meeting, where the committee unanimously decided to keep rates unchanged due to a lack of progress in reaching the Fed’s 2% inflation target, CNBC has reported.

Devastating floods in southern Brazil are worsening due to ongoing heavy rains, prompting authorities to issue warnings.
The situation underscores the impact of climate change and extreme weather in Latin America, which has seen record temperatures, droughts, and heatwaves.
The warming climate has contributed to a surge in diseases like dengue, with heat-related deaths rising by 140% in the last decade.
In Brazil’s Rio Grande do Sul state, floods have claimed 147 lives in two weeks, with over 120 people missing and around 620,000 displaced.
Significant agricultural losses and water shortages exacerbate the crisis, with water treatment plants also affected, Axios has reported.

Parts of Paris will be off-limits without QR code this summer
This summer, Paris will implement a zone-based system requiring individuals to show a pass on their phone to enter certain areas, as part of heightened security measures for the upcoming Olympic Games in July.
The Pass Jeux (games pass) must be obtained through a police-run platform and will be required for access to designated zones, including the ‘grey zone’ around the River Seine where the opening ceremony will occur.
The passes, checked via QR codes at entry points manned by officers, are necessary for both drivers and pedestrians.
Applications for passes opened recently, with requirements including proof of identity, address, and potentially additional documents like vehicle registration.
The policy, reminiscent of Covid pass systems, aims to enhance security following previous terror attacks in France, Metro has reported.

NASA Announces Plans To Build First Railway System On Moon
NASA is gearing up for a lunar return, and part of their plan involves constructing a levitating robot train on the moon’s surface.
Dubbed “Flexible Levitation on a Track (FLOAT)”, this project aims to establish a reliable robotic transport system to support future lunar activities.
The agency envisions FLOAT as a crucial component of a sustainable lunar base by the 2030s.
According to NASA’s design, FLOAT will consist of magnetic robots traversing a specialized track to minimize wear and tear from lunar dust.
These robots will transport payloads at a speed of about 1.61 kilometers per hour, facilitating the movement of approximately 100 tons of material daily to and from the lunar base.
The primary functions of FLOAT will include transporting goods within active astronaut zones and ferrying equipment to and from spacecraft landing sites, NDTV has reported.

3 men charged in Whitey Bulger’s 2018 prison killing have plea deals, prosecutors say
Three men accused in the 2018 prison killing of notorious Boston gangster James “Whitey” Bulger have entered plea deals with prosecutors after nearly six years since the incident.
Fotios “Freddy” Geas, Paul J. DeCologero, and Sean McKinnon were implicated in the beating death of the 89-year-old gangster at a troubled West Virginia prison.
Geas and DeCologero allegedly assaulted Bulger, with McKinnon serving as a lookout. DeCologero reportedly revealed plans to kill Bulger upon his arrival, and prosecutors claim they used a belt with a lock attached to it for the fatal attack.
Though the specifics of the plea agreements weren’t disclosed, prosecutors have requested hearings for the men to change their pleas and be sentenced, the Associated Press reported.

Kristi Noem banned by two more Native tribes in South Dakota
South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, once considered a potential running mate for Donald Trump, has been banned from almost a fifth of the state by various Native American tribes.
This ban follows Noem’s unfounded accusations against tribal leaders of benefiting from drug cartels.
Recent controversies, including her admission of killing a dog and a goat in her book and false claims about meeting Kim Jong-un and canceling a meeting with Emmanuel Macron, have further damaged her reputation.
Noem’s disputes with tribes escalated after she accused some leaders of aiding drug cartels.
The tribes cite ongoing issues like Noem’s support for the Keystone XL pipeline and opposition to reservation checkpoints during the pandemic, The Guardian has reported.
