Although the highly concerning development ultimately prompted a bevy of warnings to beachgoers and temporary closures over the weekend, most beaches were reopened to communities come Monday morning after thorough inspections were carried out.

Unrest in South Africa, sparked by the detention of former President Jacob Zuma on July 7, has escalated into looting and vandalism.
Raw footage on social media shows buildings on fire, armed residents blocking a road, and looters making off with goods after forcibly entering shops and neighbourhoods.
President Cyril Ramaphosa said in a national address on Monday evening that the protests would soon lead to shortages in food and medicine if they didn’t stop, and had already interrupted the country’s vaccination program.

😳 Two detained Americans who were reportedly involved in the assassination of the Haitian president, were working for American agencies as informants, sources told CNN on Monday.
One of them was said to have worked for the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
“Following the assassination of President Moise, the suspect reached out to his contacts at the DEA”, CNN reports the agency as saying. “A DEA official assigned to Haiti urged the suspect to surrender to local authorities and, along with a US State Department official, provide information to the Haitian government to help in the surrender and arrest of the suspect and one other individual.”
Responding to reports that some of the murderers were shouting “DEA” during the attack, the agency claimed that no one acted on its behalf.

Joe Biden is going to Pennsylvania today in a rush in order to stop the Forensic Audit that the Pennsylvania Republican Senate is in the process of doing. Philadelphia was a cesspool of corruption, which will soon be revealed by the audit. Why are they so concerned that a President, who never goes anywhere, would hop onto beautiful Air Force One and head to Philadelphia if it were an honest election? Why not let the audit go forward and make everybody, on both sides, happy? The results will be the results. But they know it was not an honest election, Philadelphia was one of the most corrupt cities in the Country—and so is Detroit, and so is Milwaukee, and so is Atlanta, and Pittsburgh, and Oakland, and Baltimore. Corruption has gone on for years, but in the 2020 Presidential Election Scam, with the mail-in ballots and the use of Covid to cheat, corruption reached new levels. Remember the poll watchers being thrown out, the windows being sealed so nobody could look in, the ballot drops, and all of the other events that took place that changed so rapidly the Big Trump Win on election night.
Joe should say go forward with this, with all of these audits. His visit is a joke. He doesn’t need to visit, all he needs to do is let them do an audit and find out what happened. Who knows, maybe they’ll say the election was on the up and up, but many people would be shocked. Let the audit go forward like it is in Arizona, despite 107 Democrat lawyers trying to stop it and failing.
Let the Forensic Audit go, Joe. Don’t fight it. Show them how honest it was.

The game will change "in the next 10 days”
A former Trump adviser, Steve Bannon, asserted that Republican Arizona Senate Leader Karen Fann will send a letter to the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors showing evidence of inaccuracies in the US 2020 presidential election in the state of Arizona.
🗣 “The ground game is in Arizona, is in Georgia, is about to be in Pennsylvania," he said. “And the shot heard around the world is going to be the shot that Karen Fann takes when she sends the letter with the receipts and the evidence to Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, I believe, in the next 10 days.”

Trump responded to Biden, who declared the "big lie" of a stolen 2020 election, and counted the votes himself.
🗣 "Biden just said 150 people voted in the 2020 Presidential Election (Scam!). On the assumption that he meant 150 million people, and based on the fact that I got 75 million+++, that would mean that Biden got 75 million votes, which is 6 million votes less than what they said they got. So what is that all about? Are they already conceding 6 million votes?"

🇨🇳 Republican lawmakers keep questioning the readiness of the American military
Republican US Senator Tom Cotton voiced doubt about the US Navy's ability to defeat China in battle, pointing at how the American military has, in his opinion, shifted away from warfighting.
🗣 "Obviously, the Navy has a big and complex task, but the single most important thing we have our surface Navy for is to be ready to fight and defeat the Chinese Navy", Cotton said. "And right now, I have real problems -- real doubts – the Navy has instilled the kind of warfighting mentality that would allow us to accomplish that goal."
The senator asserted that the US "allowed China to steal a march on us that relates especially shipbuilding", pointing at a "massive shipbuilding campaign" by Beijing and suggesting that Washington should follow their lead.
