Conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza sat down with Explain America to discuss his latest project, “The Dragon’s Prophecy,” a documentary linking current events in the Middle East with biblical prophecy, just hours after Israel struck Hamas targets in Qatar. “Israel’s strike in Doha targeted residential buildings housing several members of the Hamas political bureau, a spokesperson from Qatar’s foreign ministry said,” CNN reported. When D’Souza spoke to EA host Carmine Sabia on Tuesday, he said the attack on targets in Qatar was, in his opinion, justified because the Oct. 7 terrorist…

Photo by Matthieu Pétiard Pigs are fascinating animals. Science shows they can solve challenging problems, love to play, display wide-ranging emotions, and have unique personalities. In short, they are both intelligent and sentient—capable of feeling. It’s clear that it is illogical and immoral to treat pigs as mere objects. In 2015, I reviewed an essay notable for its summary and distillation of research on sentience in pigs. Compiled by researchers Lori Marino and Christina M. Colvin and published in the International Journal of Comparative Psychology, “Thinking Pigs: A Comparative Review of Cognition, Emotion, and Personality in Sus domesticus” unearthed some interesting findings. The…

Three current Pentagon officials decried a new War Department policy designed to restrict press freedom. Under new rules, the Department of War said it would forbid reporters from gathering any information that had not been approved for release and would revoke press credentials from any journalists who did not obey. A 17-page document laying out the new guidelines says that journalists who wish to report from the Pentagon must sign agreements restricting their movement in the building and stipulating that they will not obtain or possess unauthorized material. “DoW remains committed to transparency to promote accountability and public trust,” the department’s…

Humans have long hoped to communicate with extraterrestrial life, but perhaps the most intriguing messages are coming from right here on Earth. Researchers from the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) and UC Davis have documented humpback whales producing bubble rings during friendly interactions with humans, suggesting these behaviors may be a form of interspecies communication. Indeed, there might already be a complex society on Earth that has been trying to talk to us. ‘A team of researchers from SETI and UC Davis recently published a paper documenting humpback whales producing bubble rings, particularly during interactions with humans. Scientists have observed…

Alien: Earth is moving closer to its finale, and one of the biggest questions fans are asking revolves around the strange eyeball creature known as the T. Ocellus. The monster, first seen lodged in a sheep’s eye, has already proven itself more dangerous than it looked by outsmarting humans and even playing a role in Isaac’s death. Unlike the xenomorphs, which are driven by raw aggression, the eyeball monster relies on strategy and intellect, making it stand out among the alien threats. Boy Kavalier, the young CEO pulling the strings on Neverland island, is fascinated by the creature and believes…

Combining living materials and organisms with synthetic…

No one down here but the FBI’s most unwanted. For 11 seasons on Fox—nine in its original run, two in its revival—FBI agents Mulder (David Duchovny), a believer in the paranormal, and Scully (Gillian Anderson), a skeptic and medical doctor, investigated a variety of strange, unexplained cases, from bizarre monsters and sadistic killers to alien abductions and government conspiracies, known as the show’s mythology, in The X-Files.

Each season had its standout episodes, and it’s…

Fifteen airmen have been disciplined — including with removal of their command — for failing to take proper action when they became aware of accused leaker Jack Teixeira’s intelligence-seeking activities, according to a broad Air Force investigation released Monday.The video is from a previous report.However, that watchdog report found no evidence that Teixeira’s immediate superiors were aware at the time that he was allegedly sharing some of the country’s most sensitive secrets online.Instead, the report details a pattern of lax oversight by Air Force officials at Teixiera’s base.That indirectly contributed to his alleged ability to gather and then leak classified…

Lucid dreaming is so yesterday. Now, sleep scientists are focusing on a rare phenomenon in which people remain aware while sleeping — but experience no dreams, thoughts or even a sense of self. Cracking this “unusual” sleep stage, researchers say, could turn everything we thought we knew about consciousness upside down. Scientists are still debating the true nature of consciousness. Prostock-studio – stock.adobe.com While Western science is just now catching up to so-called “objectless sleep experiences,” Eastern cultures have been describing them for centuries. In Hindu philosophy, the phenomenon is known as “sushupti,” one of the four states of consciousness.…
