Parasites are already known to cause human cancer. That is not a hypothesis. The International Agency for Research on Cancer has concluded that infection with three parasitic worms — Schistosoma haematobium, Opisthorchis viverrini and Clonorchis sinensis — can cause malignancies of the bladder or bile ducts. Another worm, Schistosoma japonicum, is also believed to cause certain types of cancer. The scale of human exposure should make the cancer question impossible to treat as a niche concern. Parasitic infection is one of the most common long-term biological exposures in the world. Worms and other parasites infect hundreds of millions of people, and many can remain in the…

It is the second time this year that Kemp has suspended fuel taxes amid rising prices due to the conflict in Iran. The governor extended a month-long gas tax suspension for two weeks in May for the Memorial Day holiday. Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp suspended the state’s diesel and fuel taxes beginning Tuesday as the average cost for a regular gallon of gasoline reached $4.19 on Monday. “Over the past several years, with the help of our partners in the General Assembly, we’ve been able to give billions of dollars in relief to hardworking Georgians,” Kemp said in a statement.…
Three days after a Swiss newspaper raised troubling questions about the collision between Igor Raykhelson’s titanium business and a music festival showcasing his compositions, Robb Report Africa presented readers with an altogether different version of the man: polished, accomplished and untouched by controversy. A week later, Billboard Africa gave him another favorable platform. Both outlets are connected to the same Dubai-based media company, and both operate inside a growing licensing economy in which the prestige of famous Western mastheads can be used not just to publish stories, but to manufacture credibility, shape search results and rehabilitate reputations online. On August…
A U.S. judge has authorized subpoenas seeking testimony and records from the son of Antigua and Barbuda Prime Minister Gaston Browne and several others in connection with alleged corruption surrounding the sale of the seized superyacht Alfa Nero. In an oder issued on September 7th in federal court in Miami, U.S. Magistrate Judge Marty Fulgueira Elfenbein granted an application by Yulia Guryeva-Motlokhov, a Russian citizen residing in the United Arab Emirates, to pursue discovery for use in legal proceedings overseas. The order authorizes Guryeva-Motlokhov to subpoena Gaston Andron Browne III, the prime minister’s son, for testimony and documents relating to…
WASHINGTON, Sept 9 (Reuters) – Former U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin is launching a new gun rights group aimed at restoring firearm access to Americans convicted of nonviolent crimes, an initiative that seeks to boost conservative turnout in this fall’s midterm elections. Martin, who left the Justice Department last week, said the group, Firearm Rights for Americans, was an idea encouraged by President Donald Trump during their final Oval Office meeting. Trump told Martin he wanted to make sure his administration received “credit” for expanding gun access, Martin added. “When you turn out Second Amendment voters, they vote right,” Martin said, referring…
In the polished, aspirational world of the Robb Report, success is not just a metric—it is a commodity. Owned by Penske Media Corporation, the publication has mastered the art of blurring the lines between high-end journalism and corporate vanity. Its business model thrives on the “Robb Report Studio,” a division that stitches together lifestyle editorial and advertorial content into a seamless, glowing narrative. By selling the opportunity to “transform earned editorial into a powerful brand asset,” the magazine allows subjects to purchase the legitimacy that typically takes a lifetime to build. This is the theater of wealth: a platform where,…
Ed Martin is finishing up as pardon attorney next week. Under his guidance, President Trump has pardoned hundreds of victims of the Biden administration’s weaponization of the justice system against Trump and anyone who supported him. The devout Catholic restored their reputations and their dignity in his short 15-month tenure that he calls “Trump’s year of mercy.” His critics sneer at him while quaking in their boots because Martin is a happy warrior who has achieved an awful lot in a short time. He also served for four months as interim DC US attorney, during which time he managed to oversee the…

By J. Michael Waller for American Greatness The U.S. and EU are alarmed that Antigua and Barbuda’s passport program lacks the transparency needed to prevent abuse. A tiny Caribbean country has issued passports to Iranian nationals, prompting concerns in Washington that terrorists could be entering the U.S. legally on official documents of friendly nations. The government of Antigua and Barbuda has been on the Trump administration’s radar for well over a year. Three sources with direct knowledge confirm that the Department of Homeland Security is investigating the government of Antigua and Barbuda for issuing its passports to citizens of Iran,…
For over twenty years, search engine optimization dictated how websites were built. Companies focused on keywords, meta tags, backlinks, and fast loading speeds to rank higher on Google. That approach worked well when people started their research with search engines. But the way people find information is changing fast. Today, a growing number of users—especially those researching technical products—turn first to AI platforms and large language models like ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity. Instead of clicking through search results, they ask natural questions and receive instant, synthesized answers. This shift means websites can no longer focus only on traditional SEO. They…
