One of the most common refrains we hear from age verification proponents is that online ID checks are nothing new. After all, you show your ID at bars and liquor stores all the time, right? And it's true that many places age-restrict access in-person to various goods and services, such as tobacco, alcohol, firearms, lottery tickets, and even tattoos and body piercings.

The newest flashpoint comes with the U.S. and its European allies also at loggerheads over Ukraine and the future of European security. The EU penalized X on Friday after regulators found the platform had misled users, obscured key advertising information and blocked researchers from accessing public data. A furious Musk responded by accusing the EU of stifling free speech through "bureaucratic tyranny" - rallying far-right leaders and millions of followers behind the hashtag #AbolishTheEU.

The letter, seen by the Guardian, demanded Kimberley stop publishing or sharing videos, posts or commentary about the Reform leader and the wider Reform party. It also claimed Kimberley's videos contained content that misrepresents Monk and contributed to her harassment by members of the public. Kimberley denied the claims and told the Guardian there was no legal basis for the demands, adding the letter was written as if someone fed into ChatGPT write me an angry legal letter'.

We examine whether the increased concentration of media ownership will create a more restrictive narrative. Recent developments in United States tech and media have prompted concerns about media consolidation and its impact on free speech. The US government is pushing ByteDance to reduce its control over TikTok, with Oracle proposed to oversee the platform's algorithm for national security reasons. Meanwhile, Skydance Media's $8bn merger with Paramount Global raises further concerns about media ownership centralisation.

I've taken this step because I feel that I need to protect free speech.

Our family is overjoyed that, after four long years, our father, Saad Almadi, is finally on his way home to the United States! This day would not have been possible without President Donald Trump and the tireless efforts of his administration. We are deeply grateful to Dr. Sebastian Gorka and the team at the National Security Council, as well as everyone at the State Department. We also extend our thanks to the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh for keeping our father safe these past four years.

"It was not meant to call him a paedophile. It was a bad, dark, juvenile joke," he said. "I have not at any point tried to cause distress or anxiety or risk his life or his daughters' lives. "I don't want people to fear for their lives, I'm a dad. "I cannot believe I'm on trial for this. Words on a social media site."

I spent more than 20 years leading U.S. government-sponsored justice projects in countries with weak to nonexistent democracies, including Albania, Mongolia, China, Cambodia, Vietnam, the Republic of Georgia, and Armenia. Those of us who have worked in nations like these don't have to imagine what it looks like when a place's leaders demonstrate no regard for the rule of law. What we've seen overseas looks a lot like what we've started to watch unfold in this country over the course of the past 10 months.

This is not what America's about. We have a president that is proclaiming executive orders trying to erase trans people from existence, and you say that the American flag includes everyone. For over 100 years, the American flag stood for slavery, and we had a war to fix that. For 90 years after that, it stood for segregation, and people took to the streets to get rid of that.

Christians can critique the State of Israel without being anti-Semitic, and of course, anti-Semitism should be condemned, said Roberts in a video after the Heritage Foundation received calls from some social media users to cut ties with Carlson: My loyalty as a Christian and as an American is to Christ first and to America always. When it serves the interests of the United States to cooperate with Israel and other allies, we should do so with partnerships on security, intelligence, and technology.

Wolff, who has penned four best-selling books about President Trump, accuses Melania Trump of launching a campaign of threats to intimidate him from digging deeper into the first couple's friendship with Epstein, according to legal papers obtained by The News. These threatened legal actions are designed to create a climate of fear in the nation so that people cannot freely or confidently exercise their First Amendment rights, Wolff's 17-page claim reads. The threats are also intended to shut down legitimate inquiry into the Epstein matter.

Harrison Grant Randall, 40, was charged in March with six felony counts of defacing property. He was accused of tagging the Teslas with stickers of Elon Musk, the automaker's billionaire CEO who worked closely with President Donald Trump earlier this year. He was arrested by Brookline police after several Tesla drivers reported acts of vandalism, including one driver who sent in a video of them confronting Randall.
