Navigating the discourse.
1984: - anything the party doesn't like will be fake news; - anyone who spreads fake news will be persecuted; - the ministry of truth will be in charge of defining what fake news is. It's good that in reality this will never happen.

Recently published guidance states that museums should “encourage positive gender explorations” for children.
USA 🇺🇸: A sheriff in the state of New Mexico has declared that he will not enforce Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham's 30-day public health order prohibiting the issuance of firearms licenses. “It’s unconstitutional, so there’s no way to enforce this order,” the sheriff said at a press conference. “This ban does nothing to curb gun violence.” added Sheriff John Allen.
🚨United Kingdom 🇬🇧 ❌🇨🇳China: The British intelligence service informed the Conservative party that 2 possible candidates for deputy could be infiltrated Chinese spies. “They were subsequently blocked from the candidate list, and were not told why.” A party spokesperson said: “When we receive credible information about security concerns about potential candidates, we act on it.”
🚨Canada 🇨🇦: Canada's chief public health officer, Theresa Tam, stated that she thinks “now is the time to get your mask ready” during a press conference.

USA 🇺🇸: A CIA whistleblower told Congress that the agency bribed its own analysts to say that C-19 did not originate in a Wuhan laboratory in China.

🚨USA 🇺🇸: The President of the House of Representatives, Kevin McCarthy, announced the formal opening of an impeachment inquiry against Joe Biden. “Through our investigations, we have discovered that President Biden lied to the American people about his own knowledge of his family's business dealings abroad,” said McCarthy. “Even a trusted FBI informant alleged bribery to the Biden family. Biden used his official office to coordinate with Biden's business partners Hunter (Joe's son) about Hunter's role in Burisma, the Ukrainian energy company," he continued. In the chamber of representatives (equivalent to the chamber of deputies in Brazil) the chances of Biden being impeached are high, the question remains as to how the American senate, where the Democratic party (Joe Biden's party) will vote on this issue.
Colombia 🇨🇴: Cocaine cultivation has reached a new record in Colombia. The area planted with coca plants increased by 13%, and the largest increase was recorded in the border areas of Colombia.

USA 🇺🇸: The “New York Times” newspaper highlights an “erosion” of votes and support for Biden among blacks and the Hispanic community. Currently, Biden leads among “non-whites” by 53% to 28% against Trump. For comparison purposes, in 2020, Biden had 70% of the votes among “non-white” voters
🚨🇺🇸 USA: Biden grants US$6 billion to the Iranian regime in the emblematic September 11th On the anniversary of the attack that brought down the Twin Towers and left more than 3,000 people dead, the Biden administration issued an exemption for banks to transfer $6 billion in frozen Iranian oil funds without fear of US sanctions. In addition, the government will also release 5 Iranians detained in the USA. Sources familiar with the matter report that in return, American citizens imprisoned in Iran would be released. This may have been the first step in resuming the nuclear agreement with the Iranian terrorist regime. The Biden administration has, as we have already reported in recent months, advanced in negotiations with Iran to reestablish the agreement that the Islamic country unilaterally broke (signed by former president Barack Obama). The important point of this process is that while Joe Biden is waging a diplomatic war against the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, he is favoring Israel's biggest enemy in the region and using means that prevent oversight by the American Congress. For the agreement announced yesterday, the American Congress was informed. The Biden government has been collaborating with the main dictatorial regimes in the world, recently Nicolás Maduro's Venezuela was relieved by a huge package of sanctions that gave economic respite to Chavismo and even released Efraín Campo Flores and Franqui Flores de Freitas, nephews of Cilia Flores , Maduro's wife. They had been sentenced in 2017 to 18 years in prison for drug trafficking. The deal was closed in exchange for seven Americans imprisoned in Venezuela. The US condition for easing sanctions is also to demand that Maduro allow free elections to be held. But there is more that Washington delivered than what it received from Chavismo. Something similar seems to happen with Iran, which managed to pocket 6 billion dollars that will probably be used at the discretion of Ebrahim Raisi's tyranny.
UK 🇬🇧: Scientist Patrick Brown admitted he deliberately left out an important fact in an article about climate change to ensure editors published it. He stated that the world's leading academic journals reject articles that do not “support certain narratives” on the climate issue. Magdalena Skipper, editor-in-chief of Nature magazine, accused Patrick of “inappropriate research practices” after he said the journals favor “distorted” climate research
