Callin is a New “Social Podcasting App”
On the heels of criticizing payment processors for their recent descent into censorship, investor David Sacks, former CEO of Yammer and former COO of PayPal, and Axel Ericsson launched the first ever “social podcasting” app, Callin. The co-founders also announced they had secured $12 million.
Callin combines podcasting and the features of social audio apps like Twitter Spaces or Clubhouse into one app. On live social audio platforms, once the session ends, the audio also disappears. But on Callin, the audio is recorded and users can edit it to create a podcast episode.

CHAGRIN FALLS, Ohio — There’s a controversy brewing at school meetings across Greater Cleveland that has nothing to do with tax levies, teacher pay or whether a football coach should be fired.
It instead has to do with “critical race theory,” a concept taught in college classes. Parents and residents have become concerned about whether it has seeped into elementary, middle and high school classrooms. School officials are perplexed about how to respond, feeling that no answer they give ends up being enough
Take a recent Chagrin Fall board meeting. Lori Bendall got fed up.
During the Aug. 11 meeting, residents browbeat administrators and board members for 45 minutes. More than one demanded to know why information about a $15,000 payment to a consultant for a diversity and equity plan was not released after a public records request. Explanations that no harm was meant and that board members are not aware of every expense in a roughly $32 million budget were not enough.

The Florida diner where the owner posted a sign turning away Joe Biden voters after 13 US troops were killed in Afghanistan has had to shut its doors — because so many people called to buy meals for veterans that the small business ran out of food.
‘I’ve gotten so many people calling me from all over the world, from Europe, trying to purchase meals for veterans, which I still haven’t been able to organize,’ said Angie Ugarte, who posted the sign in the window of the DeBary Diner in the central Florida city of DeBary.
‘I think that the veterans will be fed for the rest of the year at the rate I’m getting donations.’

Twitter Locked Out Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety, Forced it to Delete Tweet
Twitter’s overzealous censorship is increasingly hitting the accounts of public services, including emergency services such as fire departments who keep the public informed via Twitter.
Twitter locked the account of a local California public safety department, with instruction to delete two tweets about emergency preparedness for the account to be restored. The platform did not explain how the tweets violated its terms of service.
“Dear @Twitter, your appeals page kept freezing on us so we had no choice but to delete this tweet otherwise we’d continue to be locked out of our account,” tweeted the Sunnyvale California DPS twitter account. “Not quite sure how sharing #EmergencyPreparedness tips violates terms of usage.”

USA Today ‘Fact Check’ Accuses Gold Star Parents of Lying, Then Issues Massive Correction
After several Gold Star parents of servicemembers slain in last month’s Kabul airport bombing claimed that President Biden checked his watch several times during a ceremony to honor them, USA Today ‘fact checker’ Daniel Funke wasted no time refuting their eyewitness accounts — essentially accusing them of lying.
“i watched you disrespect us all 5 different times by checking your watch!!!,” wrote Gold Star mother, Shana Chappell (whose Facebook and Instagram accounts were ‘incorrectly deleted’ after she posted, and have since been restored).
Another Gold Star parent, Darin Hoover, said Biden looked down at his watch 13 times.
“I actually leaned into my son’s mother’s ear and said ‘I swear to God, if he checks his watch one more time…’ I found it to be the most disrespectful thing I’ve ever seen,” Hoover told Fox News.
Yet, USA Today’s Funke wrote that the claims were “partly false” because Biden checked his watch “only after” the ceremony — not during.

Valparaiso Axes Its Chinese-Funded Confucius Institute After Attorney General Begins Probe
Valparaiso University this week announced it would be closing the Chinese government-financed Confucius Institute it had housed on his campus for nearly a decade. The decision came after Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita announced a civil investigation into whether “the Chinese government has attempted to exert political influence and manipulate the attitudes and beliefs of Hoosiers.”
The school, however, has denied any wrongdoing, insisting that closure of the institute had more to do with the potential loss of federal funding than Rokita’s probe.

America Isn’t Back: BBC Says Europe’s Relationship With Biden Has ‘Turned Sour’
The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has suggested that Joe Biden’s relationship with Europe has “turned sour”, indicating that the elderly Democrat is losing the devotion of the international media as well as world leaders post-Afghanistan.
While the publicly-funded BBC is officially an impartial news outlet — indeed, it is supposed to be legally required to be so by its charter — it is widely regarded as having an institutional left-liberal bias not only by Brexiteers and conservatives but by some of its own longest-serving broadcasters, and its content was biased against Donald Trump by its own admission on occasion.

Creation of European Army is on the Table After Afghanistan Debacle
In response to developments in Afghanistan, the countries of the European Union have started talking again about creating their own rapid reaction forces, an idea that was once derided as a conspiracy theory by papers like The Guardian when those such as Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage warned that Brussels was moving to create such a force.
Now, the EU’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, spoke in favor of the idea, as did the representatives of some governments such as Germany after a two-day meeting of defense ministers. According to the Slovenian EU presidency, ministers discussed the possibility that only some countries would send soldiers to military force, which would speed up their involvement in the action.

UK Walks Back Defence Secretary’s America No Longer a ‘Superpower’ Remarks
The British government has attempted to walk back an apparent attack on the world position of Joe Biden’s America in the wake of its Afghan debacle, with the British defence secretary claiming comments on a negligent ‘superpower’ were general, rather than specifically about the U.S.
Speaking to British conservative magazine The Spectator this week, UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace reflected on the dying days of the West’s presence in Afghanistan, and what it meant for the future of British military strategy. Observing matter-of-factly that “Britain is not a superpower” — true since the Second World War, when Britain sacrificed its empire — Wallace appeared to broaden his observation to the United States as well.

Israel’s ‘Coronavirus Czar’ Tells Citizens to Prepare for Eventual 4th Shot
As we’ve been detailing of late, the goalposts in ultra-vaxxed Israel keep perpetually moving after health authorities’ recent initiative to demand all citizens get a third COVID jab. This even as this past week witnessed the small Mediterranean country reach yet more daily case records.
Despite the WHO coming out against countries giving their populations booster shots at this point, Israel has as of Friday issued a third dose to 2.5 million Israelis. Given the likelihood that this too will fail to blunt the growing numbers of infections, naturally the question is: so what next?
You can’t make this up, health authorities are providing this “answer”: “Israel’s national coronavirus czar on Saturday called for the country to begin making preparations to eventually administer fourth doses of the coronavirus vaccine,” The Times of Israel reports.

New Zealand Supermarket Stabbing: Government to Toughen Anti-Terror Laws
New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern has vowed to toughen anti-terror laws following Friday’s knife attack in Auckland by a man who was under police surveillance.
“We must be willing to make the changes that we know may not necessarily have changed history, but could change the future,” she said at a news briefing.
The man, a Sri Lankan national, stabbed seven people in a supermarket. Three of them are in a critical condition.
The attacker, a known supporter of Islamic State, was shot dead by police.
He has now been identified as Ahamed Aathil Mohamed Samsudeen, a 32-year-old Tamil, who arrived in New Zealand in 2011 and sought refugee status.

The ISIS-supporting terrorist who went on a stabbing rampage in New Zealand Friday has been named as Ahamed Aathil Mohamed Samsudeen.
The 32-year-old Sri Lankan refugee was shot dead after stabbing five people and injuring two others during an attack at the Countdown supermarket in New Lynn in west Auckland.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said he was considered one of the nation’s most dangerous extremists and had been watched 24/7 since 2016, adding she was ‘gutted’ he was able to carry out the attack despite being on the terror watchlist.
Countdown and other stores removed knives and scissors from shelves Saturday in response to the attack — while Police Commissioner Andrew Coster defended the action of officers, who took out Samsudeen within a minute of him launching his assault.
It came as it was revealed terror police tasked with keeping the ‘highly paranoid’ suspect under 24-hour surveillance did not follow him into the supermarket where he launched his attack out of fear of being spotted.
Five of the victims in hospital received knife wounds while one suffered a dislocated shoulder and is now recovering at home. Three of the hospitalised are in a critical condition. The victims are made up of four women aged 29, 43, 60 and 66, and three men aged 53, 57 and 77.
The Islamist’s identity had been shielded under New Zealand’s stringent privacy laws after a High Court judge ruled the knifeman’s family must have at least 24 hours ‘to seek a suppression order’ — which ran out at 9pm local time.
Authorities revealed Samsudeen moved to the New Zealand in October 2011 and was granted refugee status two years later — which authorities sought to revoke in 2018 following terror-related convictions.
However Samsudeen appealed and a final decision on whether he should be deported had yet to be made, reported the New Zealand Herald…

Very perceptive article on the coming Afghan invasion of rapists, murderers and other vermin.
“The problem with so many Christian leaders today is not that they’re Christians: it’s that they’re morons. Or imbeciles, if you prefer. Homo stupidicus. In an article for Christianity Today, Dr. Russell Moore penned the Mother of All Idiotic Ideas entitled “Let the Afghan Refugees Come Unto Me.” (Read it here.) Encouraging the mass airlifting of illiterate Muslim tribesmen from the Pashtun region into America is not the very height of folly and self-destruction, you understand, it’s exactly what the Good Book tells us to do!”
“On the basis of his hundreds of interactions with these young men in his professional capacity over the past several years, [an Afghan legal court translator] believes to have discovered that they are motivated by a deep and abiding contempt for Western civilization. To them, Europeans are the enemy, and their women are legitimate spoils, as are all the other things one can take from them: housing, money, passports. Their laws don’t matter, their culture is uninteresting and, ultimately, their civilization is going to fall anyway to the horde of which one is the spearhead. ”

Seneca you are far too generous.
Just as a reasonable man knows not to take opium because it will likely destroy him, no one need meet 100 pieces of scum to know that they are scum.
The people you refer to are not Christians at all. You don’t think your elected president – whatever the country was elected by the people so why do you think Christian “leaders” are any different?
These so called Christian leaders aren’t morons, or imbeciles. They understand their job as purveyors of lies and deception very well.
If you cant even see that then you probably think the muppet show features real people.
