RT France Announces its Closure



RT France will shut down as the TV channel’s accounts have been blocked, Editor-in-chief Ksenia Fedorova wrote on her Twitter page on Saturday.

"The TV channel’s accounts have been frozen at the request of the Directorate General of the Treasury (AFT) under the French Ministry for the Economy and Finance," Fedorova wrote. "Our channel can no longer operate."

According to the press release posted on the TV channel’s website, such measures made the TV channel’s operation impossible. "After five years of relentless work, the ruling authorities have reached their goal of shutting down RT France," the statement said.

Le Monde reported on Thursday that RT France’s bank accounts had been blocked. Later, the Russian Foreign Ministry told TASS that such steps would prompt tit-for-tat measures against French media outlets in Russia.

The European Union banned the RT TV channel and the Sputnik news agency in March 2022. On July 27, the European Court of Justice dismissed an appeal from RT France against the ban imposed by the Council of the EU. The court said that "those measures do not disproportionately infringe the essential content of RT France’s freedom to conduct a business since they are temporary and reversible." Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated that the court’s ruling manifested the decadence of European values and the erosion of the EU justice system.

There's Something Very Bizarre About What Was Just Discovered.. (Secret Mystery On Mountain)

Image
 Apparently, a rare event occurred in California just two days ago—a tornado tore through a shopping center in Scott Valley, an unusual phenomenon for the region, as tornadoes are extremely uncommon in California. While this alone is a compelling story, it leads to something even more intriguing. The tornado not only caused damage to the shopping center but also led to the closure of a specific road: Mount Hermon Road. This detail caught attention, especially considering a recent unrelated event involving Mount Hermon. Just a week ago, news emerged of Israel taking control of Mount Hermon from Syria. The coincidence of these two events—one involving a rare tornado in California and the other a significant geopolitical development in the Middle East—adds a layer of curiosity to the story. It raises questions about the name connection and the unusual alignment of events occurring within such a short time frame.

Sen. Tom Cotton Presses Pentagon to Preserve Records on Border Wall Material Sales

Image
Republican Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) has sent a formal request to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin demanding that the Department of Defense (DoD) preserve records related to the sale of unused border wall materials. Cotton’s letter comes amid growing scrutiny over the Biden administration's decision to auction off these materials at low prices, a move that has sparked political controversy ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s anticipated second term. Background on the Issue The Biden administration halted construction of the U.S. southern border wall upon taking office. Last year, Congress authorized the disposal of unused border wall materials under the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) . Since then, the administration has been selling the materials through auctions, often at significantly reduced prices. This decision has faced backlash from Republicans who view the sale as an attempt to undermine border security policies. Cotton’s Requests In his letter, Cotton urged...
