WITNESS TO HISTORY Mike Walsh. Afraid of the truth, major book publishers, including Amazon, banned this decisive truth-telling illustrated book. Despite censorship, this is the most widely read modernising true history of Adolf Hitler and The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. https://barnesreview.org/product/witness-to-history-the-reich-legend-uncensored/

An Italian gay couple, Andrea and Alessandro, risks imprisonment and a heavy fine because, as a result of the new legislation in Italy, they want to keep their child, born through an American surrogate, a secret to protect their son from discovery by the authorities. (translated)

Alphadjo Cisse. Devastating impact in the second half in Under-21. Crossbar, penalty earned, and decisive goal that keeps Italy's hopes alive of catching Poland at the top. Of another category compared to the others on the field. First and foremost for his personality. In the senior national team, several players have been called up who, at this moment, tie his shoes. But oh well. (translated)

"It is not a threat, but a response to an attempt to threaten Russia." If Kaliningrad, or any other part of Russian territory, were to suffer "a direct attack," Putin continued, "the question of using all available means" for defense would arise. (translated)

"Regardless of the scenario that unfolds on a global level in the coming years, the continuation of international conflicts is unfortunately very likely. This is partly due to the ongoing fundamental changes - and the opportunities they bring - which fuel ambitions and the willingness to take risks in the prospect of seemingly enormous profits," said Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday in a speech at a meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club in Moscow, also expressing his belief that the situation will calm down with the retreat of what he called "Western hegemony."

Under 21 Cardiopalma, a great goal by Cisse in the 95th minute keeps the direct qualification for the upcoming European Championships open. In Armenia, Baldini's boys wasted every opportunity - two posts hit by Cisse and Comuzzo, a missed penalty by Koleosho, and at least three amazing saves by the goalkeeper - and when it all seemed done, the jewel of Milan thought to pull the chestnuts out of the fire. With this result, Italy will need to beat Poland by AT LEAST TWO GOALS to win the group. The decisive match is on Monday in Pescara. (translated)

"The plane began to ascend and descend." The caller himself introduced himself with the extremely suspicious name Josaphat (the king of the Kingdom of Judah mentioned in the Bible), stating that his brother's name is Nebuchadnezzar (just like the rulers of the former Neo-Babylonian Empire), which then became the target of a series of jokes on social media.

"Carlos Viana, you are on the right. Why are you in the PSD?" "Everyone knows how challenging the work we did in the CPMI was and the political consequences that came after it. After the CPMI, most parties closed their doors to my candidacy. I was in Podemos and lost the party’s support. PL already had a commitment to another Senate candidate, and I respect that decision. In practice, I was at real risk of not even being a candidate in this election. It was when the PSD, which at that moment did not have a candidate for the Senate, managed to offer me the support. I usually say it was almost a political miracle, because without that opportunity, I probably wouldn't even be running. So my move to the PSD did not arise from a change in my convictions. It came from a very simple reality: it was the party that allowed me to continue as a Senate candidate." (translated)

Press Release: Defense statement from Antonio Tabet regarding the victory at the TSE The defense of actor, presenter, screenwriter, and comedian Antonio Tabet publicly celebrates the recent and paradigm-shifting victory in the Superior Electoral Court in favor of freedom of criticism, opinion, expression of thought, and religion. In judging the case, the TSE Collegiate overturned the concerning initial decisions made by Minister André Mendonça, which risked direct censorship of absolutely true content, humorous expressions, and, even more alarmingly, prayers and requests for blessings to Our Lady Aparecida. In line with the arguments upheld by this Defense from the beginning, the Electoral Court concluded the obvious; that is, it is not lawful for the State to censor factually true content; it is not lawful to censor prayers and acts of faith; it is not lawful to censor opinions or humor. The corrective action of Justice, expressed in the order to exclude content, should be strictly and exclusively limited to publications that are objectively false. We take this opportunity, in respect for the loyalty of public debate and to leave no doubts, to reiterate that: the legislative initiative to remove Our Lady Aparecida from the status of Patroness of Brazil is not authored or proposed by candidate Flávio Bolsonaro. On the other hand, it is a fact that allies (political and religious) of Flávio Bolsonaro publicly defend and promote such an initiative and, in public and notorious cases, promote attacks against institutions linked to the Catholic Church. The free scrutiny of the network of relationships of public figures is a pillar of democracy and cannot be silenced. Furthermore, let this October, the month of Our Lady Aparecida, be the time for the Brazilian people to make their own judgment. Lucas Mourão André Matheus Rodrigo Rollemberg (translated)

Putin also accused the West of fueling the escalation with exercises in the Baltic and reiterated that Moscow does not intend to attack NATO countries. (translated)
