Far-right commentator Jack Posobiec is a current host on One America News Network (OANN), an information network widely known to distort facts and which has been embraced by President Trump. This investigation has found that Posobiec — a Trump favorite — has collaborated with white supremacists, neo-fascists and antisemites for years, while producing propaganda that Trump and his inner circle have publicly celebrated.

“Jack Posobiec’s extensive ties to white supremacists should serve as a wake-up call for anyone who hasn’t made the connection between Trump’s MAGA movement and hate,” said Michael Edison Hayden, the SPLC senior investigative reporter who uncovered the story about Posobiec and his ties to white supremacy and the White House.

BEIJING (AFP) - Two powerful explosions rocked a fireworks factory in south-west China on Wednesday night (July 8), state TV reported without mentioning casualties.

CCTV broadcast footage of a big yellow mushroom cloud over the factory in the city of Guanghan in Sichuan province after the first blast, and then thick, black smoke pouring from the plant.

This was followed by a second explosion.

The cause of the disaster around 9.10pm was not immediately known.

Crews from 10 firestations raced to the factory but for security reasons were kept 500 meters from it, CCTV said.

Video footage shared on the social platform Weibo showed damage inside homes near the factory.
