... ist die neue Grundvoraussetzung, um ein guter Polizist beim FBI zu sein. Das war vielleicht bisher noch nicht so, aber wer jetzt seinen Job behalten möchte, der muss das unter Beweis stellen.
Als Beweismittel wird zur Zeit vor allem der Lügendetektor benutzt, denn "wer nichts zu verbergen hat, der kann sich auch prüfen lassen". Das ist jedenfalls die Ansicht von FBI-Chef Kash Patel. Deshalb wird auch den Mitarbeitern nicht geraten, sich gegen eine solche Überprüfung zu wehren. Jedenfalls berichtet die "New York Times", dass seit Patels Amtsantritt der Einsatz von Lügendetektor-Tests bei FBI-Mitarbeitern zu einer häufigen Untersuchungsmethode geworden ist.
Michael Feinberg, Special Agent im FBI-Büro von Norfolk/Virginia, war überrascht als er von seiner neuen Abteilungsleiterin Dominique Evans zum Gespräch bestellt wurde. So erfuhr er, dass er trotz seiner belegbar guten Arbeit für das Büro nicht mit einer Beförderung rechnen könne, schreibt t-online.de. Seine Vorgesetzte riet ihm eher, sich auf eine Degradierung oder Versetzung einzustellen weil er mit Peter Strzok befreundet sei.
Strzok war negativ aufgefallen, weil er für das FBI die Ermittlungen bezüglich einer möglichen Einmischung Russlands in die Präsidentschaftswahlen 2016 geleitet hatte. Diese Tat hatte Strzok 2023 auf eine Liste von "Staatsfeinden" gebracht.
Obwohl ihm noch 5 Jahre für eine Pensionsberechtigung fehlten, reichte Feinberg 24 Stunden nach dem Gespräch seine Kündigung beim FBI ein. Weiter hatten Strzok und Feinberg nichts zu verbergen ...
Von seinen Mitarbeitern verlangt FBI-Chef Kash Patel unbedingte Loyalität zu US-Präsident Trump und dessen Agenda – und zu sich selbst. Lügendetektor-Tests sollen sie sicherstellen. Wer sich weigert, riskiert seinen Job.

“My inescapable conclusion has become that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people. Having grown up in a Zionist home, lived the first half of my life in Israel, served in the I.D.F. as a soldier and officer and spent most of my career researching and writing on war crimes and the Holocaust, this was a painful conclusion to reach, and one that I resisted as long as I could. But I have been teaching classes on genocide for a quarter of a century. I can recognize one when I see one.
The continued denial of this designation by states, international organizations and legal and scholarly experts will cause unmitigated damage not just to the people of Gaza and Israel but also to the system of international law established in the wake of the horrors of the Holocaust, designed to prevent such atrocities from happening ever again. It is a threat to the very foundations of the moral order on which we all depend.”

"We now have many more very hot days and many fewer extremely cold nights, according to this latest assessment.
"It shows just how much #GlobalWarming caused by the vast emissions of #GreenhouseGases our civilisation creates is reshaping the country's climate.
"Climate change is bringing more #SevereWeather events like #storms and #flooding - and inevitably the country's changing climate is having an impact on the #NaturalWorld, with some species suffering.
"The report focuses on 2024, when the UK experienced its second-warmest February, warmest May, warmest spring, fifth-warmest December, and fifth-warmest winter since records began in 1884.
"The Met Office highlights that some of these records have already been surpassed in 2025 - more evidence of this trend towards more extreme weather.

Some of the withheld money funds after-school and summer programming at Boys & Girls Clubs, the #YMCA or #PublicSchools, attended by 1.4 million children and teenagers nationwide
By BIANCA VÁZQUEZ TONESS Updated 5:12 PM EDT, July 14, 2025
Excerpt: "At the East Providence summer camp, Aiden, a rising third grader, played tag, built structures with magnetic tiles, played a fast-paced game with the other kids to review addition and subtraction, learned about pollination, watched a nature video and ate club-provided chicken nuggets.
"Veteran teachers from his school corrected him when he spoke without raising his hand and offered common-sense advice when a boy in his group said something inappropriate.
" 'When someone says something inappropriate, you don’t repeat it,' teacher Kayla Creighton told the boys between answering their questions about horseflies and honeybees.
"Indeed, it’s hard to find a more middle-of-the road organization in this country than the Boys & Girls Club.
"Just last month, a Republican and a Democrat sponsored a resolution in the U.S. House celebrating the 165-year-old organization as a 'beacon of hope and opportunity.' The Defense Department awarded the club $3 million in 1991 to support children left behind when their parents deployed for the Persian Gulf. And ever since, the Boys & Girls Club has created clubs on military installations to support the children of service members. Military families can sign up their kids for free.

"Aiden’s mother has started looking into afternoon child care for September when kids return to school in Rhode Island.
" 'It costs $220 a week,' Reyes said, her eyes expanding. 'I can’t afford that.'
"The single mother and state worker said she’ll probably ask her 14-year-old son to stay home and watch Aiden. That will mean he would have to forgo getting a job when he turns 15 in the fall and couldn’t play basketball and football.
" 'I don’t have any other option,' she said.
"At home, Aiden would likely stay inside on a screen. That would be heartbreaking since he’s thrived getting tutoring and 'learning about healthy boundaries' from the Boys & Girls Club program, Reyes said."
