    I'm really, really glad that Dontae finally got his full pardon. I hope that he's living his best life now.

    It makes me so sad that there are so many innocent people in prison and on Death Row. Our justice system is so broken. 😔

    God loves you so much that He sent His Holy Son Jesus from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins, and to be put into a tomb 3 days and rise from the dead the third day, and He (Jesus) went back up to heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, & murderers, and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone…" Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent.

    Sorry but if you lock someone up for 26 years for a crime in which they are innocent, you should get a minimum 500k per year payout. And even that I think is low

    Almost 4yrs as a fugitive from injustice and police brutality. Two officers lied and said I punched an officer in the face and resisted arrest, two felonies in Ohio. I escaped a 16th floor courtroom in Columbus Ohio. I had witnesses but the court never allowed them to testify which would prove I did nothing wrong. Court did not let them testify, and neither could I. I will resist and fight til the end.

    Bring me a better way of life i will join you, but remember i bring you the truth.
    One Question, Where are you going ? when something continues to happen for more than one generation, the new generation considers the norm and they start thinking this is how its supposed to be, this is why Islam is teaching you, to question your faith, when you know that there is something wrong here, you feel there is something wrong, you question it in order to find the answer that is correct, this is how people come on the right path So dont be afraid Islam has the answers.

    Maybe you think you know about Islam, from things that you heard or saw, but let me Tell you, if you want to learn about Islam you need to learn from Proven Books and Proven Scholars, other wise you can own wrong knowledge. Example did you know that there was many Prophets and that Muhammad (ﷺ) ist the last Prophet and not the only one ? the Quran mention 25 Prophets, but we know there was much more and they all come with the same Message. May Allah guide you Inshallah ( Allah says come to me and i will run to you) i hope you understand.

    Quran 17:15 – Whoever is guided is only guided for [the benefit of] his soul. And whoever errs only errs against it. And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. And never would We punish until We sent a messenger.

    If you want to learn wath Islam and to be a Muslim means , watch the first Video that i linked up, the socond to know the Purpose, the third to listen. Maybe you like it so wath cloud stop you ? This Life is a Test and it ends with your death so dont waste Time, then the Creator of Time gives you a limit.

    More Information, Videos, Links about Islam on my Channel,(Playlists)

    If you belive there is one Creator, but you have issues in your Life, pray for guidens and you will be guidet Inshallah.
    The Most reciting Quran surah, when Muslims pray is:
    Surah al Fatiah (English) translation.

    In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.
    All praise is for Allah—Lord of all worlds,
    the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,
    Master of the Day of Judgment.
    You ˹alone˺ we worship and You ˹alone˺ we ask for help.
    Guide us along the Straight Path,
    the Path of those You have blessed—not those You are displeased with, or those who are astray.

    I was expecting to hear the state would not issue the pardon. What a wonderful ending. I hope this is one of many pardons that are due to innocent individuals that are incarcerated in the US.

Scott Galloway on the fight for US men | Americast

Published

on



There was a gender divide in the US in 2024 and one of the criticisms of the failed Democrat presidential campaign was that they appealed to women and largely ignored men.

So, with the midterms coming up, and the 2028 battle lines being drawn, how much is are political conversations going to centre around who can attract the male vote?

Justin’s been talking to a man who’s been thinking about that very question.

Russian drone hits Romanian apartment block | BBC News

Published

on



A Russian drone hit an apartment block in Romania causing a fire and wounding two people, officials say.

The incident happened on Friday in the town of Galati – close to Romania’s eastern border with Ukraine and Moldova.

Nato Secretary General Mark Rutte said “Russia’s reckless behaviour is a danger to us all”, while European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said Russia’s “war of aggression had crossed yet another line”.

Russian drones have strayed across Romania’s border a number of times during the four-year war with Ukraine, but it is the first time citizens from the Nato country have been hurt. Russia has yet to comment on the incident.

Published

An inquest has opened into the deaths of three sisters whose bodies were recovered from the sea off the coast of Brighton. The case has led to rampant speculation online, particularly after it emerged that a widely shared image provided by family members appeared to be AI-generated.

From unfounded conspiracies about serial killers, to a broader debate over the handling of cases involving black people, it has captivated TikTok sleuths, some of whom are even turning on each other.

On this episode of Top Comment, Marianna and Matt discuss why the case is receiving so much attention, and how race has played a leading role in the discourse.
