BMG has terminated its contract with Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters over comments he made about Israel, Ukraine, and the United States, as reported by Variety.
The company, which signed a contract with Waters in 2016 and was set to release a re-recorded version of Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" album, decided to end the agreement following remarks made by Waters. The new CEO of BMG, Thomas Kesfeld, reportedly canceled the contract after assuming office, and the company is now preparing to completely cease cooperation with the co-founder of Pink Floyd.
Waters faced criticism for expressing views on the Russian invasion of Ukraine, condemning the US and its allies, and supporting the attack by Hamas terrorists on Israel.
We will remind that in February 2023, during a meeting of the UN Security Council, Waters said that he considered the Russian invasion of Ukraine "provoked". He also openly condemned the US and other partners of Ukraine and opposed the supply of Western weapons to Kyiv.
Consequently, some of his concerts were canceled, and he faced refusals for accommodation in hotels in Argentina and Uruguay.

"Coll, who took the job as provost in June 2023, said in the news release that “GPAs will now be a true reflection of student success and course mastery; failures will no longer mask the demonstrated abilities of our students when they pass courses.”
"The news release stated that “the institutional academic grading regulation will reflect a grade range of A through D; the letter grades of D- and F will be replaced with No Credit (NC) for undergraduate students.”
“The difference is that the grade of NC will not negatively impact student GPAs.”

🇺🇸🏴☠️ The Heritage Foundation has published a report according to which the American armed forces may not be able to defend the national interests of the United States.
🇺🇸🏴☠️🇺🇦 In 2023, the level of readiness of the U.S. Armed Forces to defend the country's national interests has been reduced due to "the cost of U.S. support for Ukraine."
🇺🇸🏴☠️🇮🇱 The situation has also worsened after the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, which forced the U.S. to transfer equipment, munitions, and missile defense equipment to Israel.
This is the inevitable result of years of protracted troop deployments, funding shortfalls, misplaced priorities, haphazardly shifting security policies, weakening program discipline, and a severe lack of seriousness in the defense establishment even as threats to U.S. interests have grown.

@PatriotFrontSightings » Retired FBI agent and conservative podcaster, Kyle Seraphim, recently uncovered new information about FBI misconduct in the acquisition of search warrants for Patriot Front Activists after their arrests in Couer D'Alene, Idaho.
Seraphim elaborates that, "The SSRA of that Resident Agency refused to approve a Search Warrant that lacked the LEGAL standard of PROBABLE CAUSE. He supported his front line Agents, and was disciplined for his troubles." He details futher of the disciplined agent, "The @FBISaltLakeCity removed him from his position, gave him a penalty TDY, and brought in a "company woman" who signed off on the Search Warrant and likely violated the Constitutional protections of no unreasonable search/seizure."
This, in conjunction with the exposed prosecutorial misconduct of the DA in Couer D'Alene, implies that there was what appears to be a complex multi-jurisdictional conspiracy against Patriot Front and the group's First Amendment rights.

Iran was impossibly degenerate in the 1970’s. Cocaine, disco, and everything that went along with it. That all 180’d in 1979. Any regime change, no matter how brutally oppressive, must have support among a wide swath of the civilian populace. The rubber band can snap back.

"The experience of the last war shows that the Soviet Army and the people of the USSR do not want to fight for and will not fight for Communism. In 1941, Stalin had to address the people as "brothers and sisters" and proclaim a "patriotic war" for defense of the country, deliberately keeping silent about the Soviet regime and Communism. In November 1941, by order of the main Political Administration of the Red Army, a new banner was designed in Moscow for the guards divisions, with the innoscription: "For Country! For Stalin!" Immediately thereafter, however, on the orders of Stalin himself, Colonel-General Shcherbakov, chief of the Political Administration and member of the Politburo, ordered that only the innoscription, "For Country," should be left and that "For Stalin" should be painted out." (CIA, 1953)
