The 9/11 Attacks: A Nation In Shock

On the fateful morning of September 11, 2001, the world watched in horror as a series of coordinated terrorist attacks unfolded on U.S. soil.

The attacks, orchestrated by the extremist group Al-Qaeda, targeted the World Trade Center towers in New York City and the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.

These events would come to be known simply as "9/11" and would leave an indelible mark on the United States and the world.

The Twin Towers: The World Trade Center towers, iconic symbols of economic prowess and architectural achievement, were the primary targets. Two hijacked commercial airliners were flown into the towers, causing catastrophic damage and eventually leading to their collapse. The attacks on the Twin Towers claimed the lives of nearly 3,000 people, making it one of the deadliest acts of terrorism in history.

The Pentagon Attack: In addition to the attacks on the Twin Towers, another hijacked plane, American Airlines Flight 77, crashed into the Pentagon, the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense. The strike resulted in significant damage and loss of life, further escalating the national crisis.

Flight 93's Heroic Sacrifice: Amidst the chaos, a fourth plane, United Airlines Flight 93, was also hijacked. Passengers on board, learning of the other attacks via phone calls, bravely fought back against the hijackers. The plane ultimately crashed into a field in Pennsylvania, preventing another potential target, likely in Washington, D.C.

Immediate Impact: The 9/11 attacks sent shockwaves through the United States and the world. In the immediate aftermath, there was a profound sense of grief, fear, and anger. The nation was united in mourning, and a strong sense of solidarity emerged.

Response and Consequences: The U.S. government, under President George W. Bush, launched a war on terror, with a focus on eliminating Al-Qaeda and its leader, Osama bin Laden. The Patriot Act was enacted to strengthen national security, but it also raised concerns about civil liberties.

Homeland Security and Airport Security: The attacks prompted a significant overhaul of U.S. security measures, including the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. Airport security was enhanced with more rigorous screenings and the establishment of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).

Global Implications: Internationally, the 9/11 attacks had far-reaching consequences. The United States engaged in military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, leading to a prolonged period of conflict in the region. The attacks also reshaped global politics and intensified discussions on counterterrorism efforts.

Memorials and Remembrance: In the years following the attacks, several memorials were erected to honor the victims and remember the events of 9/11. The National September 11 Memorial and Museum in New York City stands on the site of the former Twin Towers, serving as a poignant reminder of the tragedy.

Never Forget: As the years have passed, the phrase "Never Forget" has become synonymous with 9/11. It serves as a solemn reminder of the lives lost, the heroism displayed, and the enduring impact of that tragic day.

In conclusion, the 9/11 attacks were a watershed moment in American history, leaving the nation in shock and reshaping its policies and security measures.

The scars of that day remain, but so does the resilience and unity of a nation determined to stand strong in the face of adversity.

Homeland Security Corrects Major Error: International Student Enrollment in U.S. Rose in 2023-24

New data shows 6.5% growth in foreign student population after DHS underreported figures by over 200,000

In a dramatic reversal, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has corrected a significant data error regarding international student enrollment in the United States, confirming that the number of international students increased in 2023 — not declined, as previously reported.

The correction comes after Chris Glass, a professor at Boston College, uncovered a discrepancy in SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System) data that originally underreported international enrollment by more than 200,000 students. The DHS quietly updated the figures earlier this month after Glass flagged the issue on July 7.

What the Corrected Data Shows

The updated SEVIS data now lists 1,294,231 active international students as of September 2023, up from the erroneously reported 1,091,182. This reflects a 6.5% year-over-year increase, signaling a healthy rebound in global academic mobility to the U.S.

This upward revision aligns with the findings of the Open Doors Report, released jointly by the U.S. Department of State and the Institute of International Education, which also highlighted a record number of international students in the 2023–24 academic year.

“The revised numbers show robust growth,” Glass told CNBC. “It’s critical data at a moment when people are paying close attention to the number of international students in the U.S.”

SEVIS data covers a wide range of international students — not only those enrolled in universities and colleges but also those attending U.S. high schools, language institutes, flight schools, and vocational training programs.

Why This Matters

The correction comes amid heightened scrutiny of international student policies under the Trump administration, which has made immigration and education reform central to its second-term agenda.

In recent months, President Donald Trump and Harvard University have been at odds over international student visas. In May, the DHS terminated Harvard’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification, effectively blocking new international students from enrolling. The move triggered widespread backlash from the academic community.

A federal judge later stepped in. In June, U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs granted Harvard a preliminary injunction, temporarily halting the ban and allowing international students to continue their studies while litigation proceeds.

Harvard at the Center of the Debate

Harvard is particularly affected by changes in international education policy. In the 2024–25 academic year, international students made up 27% of the university’s total enrollment, a sharp increase from 22.5% a decade ago. Nationally, foreign students comprise less than 6% of the overall U.S. higher education population.

“Harvard’s Schools continue to make plans to ensure that our international students and scholars will be able to pursue their academic work fully,” said Harvard President Alan Garber in early June.

Impact on Students and U.S. Education

The DHS correction comes at a crucial time. The global education sector is still recovering from pandemic-era disruptions, and international student flows are a major source of revenue and research talent for U.S. institutions.

Foreign students also significantly contribute to the U.S. economy — bringing in an estimated $38 billion annually, according to data from the U.S. Department of Commerce.

The Bigger Picture: Politics and Policy

The mix-up in the numbers adds another layer of complexity to the ongoing political battle over immigration, education, and global competitiveness. With Trump doubling down on nationalist policy proposals in his reelection campaign — including plans to slash Pell Grants and reform student lending — international students and universities are bracing for more upheaval.

The DHS’s decision to quietly update the data without public acknowledgment has raised eyebrows, especially at a time when public trust in government transparency is under strain.

For now, the future of international enrollment remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: despite political headwinds, the U.S. remains a top destination for students around the globe.

Social Media Activity Checked By US Customs

Americans are having their social media activity checked by US customs and border agents. This is an illustration of how the US has become a fascist police state under Donald Trump. I have written about how China uses a social credit system to rate its citizens’ behaviour and rewards or penalises them accordingly. Many in the US criticise China as a totalitarian state, well the Trump regime is now acting in similarly intrusive ways. The digital world is primarily a record keeping device and the checking of this by security agencies has become their new favourite means of investigating individuals. Free speech and first amendment rights are being routinely trampled on by the Trump regime. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhXWAm4iKHo

Border Crossings & Social Media Checking In America

Visitors and citizens are both being screened at the border by US customs agents. Reminiscent of totalitarian regimes around the world America has now fallen into this category. The warnings to the American voters prior to the last Presidential election went unheeded by too many. That Trump represented a threat to democracy and that he and his minions would harm the very fabric of what the United States of America has constitutionally stood for. Well, the police state is in action with ICE agents wearing masks grabbing innocent people off the streets. Academic students and teachers have been disappeared akin to what happened in Chile and Argentina back in the late 20C. It is sickening. https://www.tiktok.com/@npr/video/7491704891199491371 US Airports Screening Travellers’ Phones & Devices Any criticism of the genocide being committed by Israel in Gaza and showing up on your social media will get you likely detained. These Trumpian right wing defenders of free speech have conveniently misplaced their first amendment concerns. “If you’re a visa or green card holder with plans to travel to the US, reports of people being turned away at airports over messages found on their devices might be prompting you to second-guess your travel plans. You might be asking whether Customs and Border Protection (CBP) can search your phone, whether you can opt out and what you should do to minimize your risks. The short answer is that yes, CBP can search your devices. Constitutional protections are generally weaker at US borders, including airports.” - (https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/mar/26/phone-search-privacy-us-border-immigration) Americans are having their social media activity checked by US customs and border agents. This is the fascist police state America under Trump and a constant reminder not to normalise the extreme nature of the Trump regime. The legacy media tends to normalise Trump in their coverage, as if we were in a non-judgmental timeless frieze. The reality of what Trump is doing to America is truly disgusting. The welcome mat has been well and truly done away with, especially if you have brown skin, liberal views, tattoos, and stuff on your devices that could point the finger at you.

Those on the Right and in the Trump regime are discarding adherence to the law, as a fundamental of government. Basically, they were unable to achieve their white supremacy and might is right wishes via upholding the existing US Constitution. Donald Trump’s desire for unchecked executive power is fired by this. Those on the Left, in contrast to this, have been sticklers for abiding by the laws of the land. A majority of the American voting public voted for criminality when they elected Trump, a convicted felon to the White House.” - (https://www.midasword.com.au/the-trump-regime-are-discarding-adherence-to-the-law/) Robert Sudha Hamilton is the author of America Matters: Pre-apocalyptic Posts & Essays in the Shadow of Trump. ©MidasWord

The Department of Homeland Security launched a failed operation that ensnared hundreds, if not thousands, of U.S. protesters in what new documents show was as a sweeping, power-hungry effort before the 2020 election to bolster President Donald Trump’s spurious claims about a “terrorist organization” he accused his Democratic rivals of supporting.

EMPIRE OVERREACH : THE 1 TRILLION DOLLAR WAR MACHINE

https://rumble.com/v61399w-empire-overreach-the-1-trillion-dollar-war-machine.html

This video explores why Donald Trump’s "America First" foreign policy suggests that the current $1 trillion national security budget is unnecessarily large. It delves into historical context, explaining how the post-WWII expansion of U.S. military presence and alliances was a strategic misstep that contradicts the principles of an "America First" approach. The video argues that the true security needs of the United States could be met with a much smaller budget, focusing on a robust nuclear deterrent and a conventional defense centered around protecting the homeland rather than maintaining a global military empire. It critiques the justification for such an expansive military budget, highlighting the absence of real external threats and the internal perpetuation of the Warfare State by the military-industrial complex.

Be Afraid,Be Very Afraid.. Daddy's Coming Home!

This is about to be some modern day Wyatt Earp hot mess in these streets come January 22,2025.

This man is not playing,he has yet to crack a smirk much less a smile,in some instances he's got spittale flying all over the place,he is going to be about business come mid January 2025.

Y'all know that feeling when you were kids or even teenagers doing things because "dad" was gone for work or whatever and then you get the phone call he'll be back home in a month and crap better be squared away when he gets home or everyone is getting an ass whooping.

You might want to look into upgrading your drivers license because you know how our government doesn't pass up an opportunity on making a new policy after a "manufactured" crisis of their making.

Remember 9/11?

They were so happy to make "The Patriot Act" under the guise of protecting American Citizens from terrorism or terrorists.

With the amount of illegal immigrants in the United States, I don't put it past them to use the Real ID or Enhanced ID to distinguish who is a legal citizen of the United States.

A lot of illegal immigrants received drivers licenses and social security cards,depending on what state was issuing them and than moving to other states.

These would be considered fraudulent documentation when the Trump Administration takes over next month.

With the Read ID and Enhanced ID you will be known as someone who has been "vetted" with your documentation by the DMV.

It won't be only for flying out of Airports and entering "certain" Federal Government Buildings.

Watch!

Attorneys for Sean 'Diddy' Combs Accuse Government of Leaking Evidence to Media, Impacting Fair Trial

Attorneys representing Sean "Diddy" Combs filed a motion in federal court on Wednesday, accusing the government of leaking crucial evidence to the media, potentially jeopardizing his right to a fair trial. Combs, the music mogul and cultural icon, is currently facing serious federal charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. His legal team has raised concerns that the leaking of a 2016 hotel surveillance video to CNN, which shows Combs allegedly assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, is part of a broader effort by federal agents to tarnish his public image before trial. The video, which surfaced last week, depicts Combs dragging and kicking Ventura in a hotel hallway, and it has since sparked widespread media attention. Combs’ legal team claims that the release of this footage, as well as information about federal searches conducted at his homes in Los Angeles and Miami, was orchestrated by agents from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). They argue that such leaks taint the jury pool and violate his constitutional right to a fair trial. Combs' Legal Troubles Escalate The legal challenges facing Sean "Diddy" Combs have intensified over the past few months. Aside from the racketeering and sex trafficking charges, Combs is also embroiled in multiple civil lawsuits that allege a pattern of sexual misconduct and assault dating back years. These civil suits, including one filed by Cassie Ventura in 2023, accuse Combs of a range of illegal behaviors, including abuse, trafficking, and exploitation. In response to the growing legal pressure, Combs’ attorneys have repeatedly asked for his release on bail while awaiting trial, but their motions have been denied on multiple occasions. They contend that Combs does not pose a flight risk and that keeping him incarcerated until trial undermines his ability to mount a robust defense. Government Pushback Prosecutors, however, maintain that the case against Combs is solid, citing years of investigations and testimony from multiple alleged victims. Despite Combs’ claims that the evidence is being unfairly leaked, the government has denied responsibility for any media disclosures. DHS has stated that the surveillance video in question was not in its possession until after CNN published it. Legal experts have weighed in, suggesting that high-profile cases often carry risks of media leaks, but if the court finds credible evidence of deliberate leaks from government agents, it could impose sanctions or bar certain evidence from being used in trial. Combs’ legal team is seeking a gag order to prevent the government from disclosing any more information to the media as the trial approaches. Combs' Next Steps Combs is reportedly pushing for a Spring 2025 trial date, which gives his legal team more time to prepare a defense. In the meantime, the rapper and producer remains in federal custody, with his attorneys continuing to fight for his release on bond. If convicted, Combs faces significant prison time and the potential collapse of his music and business empire. As the case unfolds, legal analysts expect more details to emerge, especially as Combs' legal team continues to build their case against the alleged media leaks. The trial, when it begins, is sure to be one of the most high-profile in recent memory, involving a global music icon whose influence spans decades. Read the full article
