Not that long ago, news about ISIS was everywhere. But suddenly the controlled media took on a new narrative: "Finally, ISIS is no more, thanks to the American superpower."
Well, no. A new caliph (Abu al-Hussein al-Husseini al-Qurashi) replaced the previous one, and the Islamic State is still at war with the West, recruiting, educating, inspiring, and equipping a worldwide following. Their official magazine, Al-Naba, still proceeds weekly from the Central Media Office of the Islamic State.

During this time period, there have been a total of 2911 Islamic attacks in 53 countries, in which 27722 people were killed and 26192 injured.
Front page of Al-Naba:

The Trump Administration has banned all new humanoid robots from China, which the FCC terms "unacceptable risks" to U.S. national security.
Many major robotic vacuum brands like Roborock and Ecovac are either based in China, or source parts from foreign countries — even iRobot's Roomba. Among other features, robot vacuums often have the ability to map your home, listen to conversations, and there have been security breaches that demonstrate the devices' vulnerabilities.
"Advanced robotic devices collect data that could be leveraged by malign actors to surveil Americans, enhance the capabilities of foreign intelligence services, or to remotely commandeer the robots," the FCC said. It cites several use cases for robots: guarding data centers and other "critical infrastructure" protection, manufacturing and "U.S. military dominance" that the FCC says illustrate the need to have a "secure domestic advanced robotics supply chain."
Earlier this year, the FCC banned imports of new ...
