Trump,</p> <p class="has-text-align-left">In his speech to European leaders only days ago, your Vice President JD Vance stated plainly, <em>“I</em>n <em>Washington, there is a new sheriff in town. And under Donald Trump</em>’<em>s leadership, we may disagree with</em> <em>your views, but we will fight to defend your right to offer in the public square. Agree or disagree?”</em></p> <p class="has-text-align-left">Mr. President, the first 30 days of your current administration have moved at warp speed. In that time you have quickly re-established American principles of free speech and a free press, upheld through Executive Orders as well as clarified positions by your Department of Justice and State Department.</p> <p class="has-text-align-left">There is a major oversight taking place however, when it comes to freedom of speech and freedom of press. A major sanction in the last few months of the Biden State Department remains in place and directly violates both of those Constitutionally protected American freedoms.</p> <p class="has-text-align-left">On Sept. 13, 2024, under the direction of Antony Blinken, the Biden State Department placed unprecedented sanctions on the Russian news organization RT, with whom my company contracts to produce fair, factual, and honest news and opinion programming.</p> <p class="has-text-align-left">The excuse used to place our work under sanction was based on an old lie: that Russia and RT had in some way interfered in U.S. elections. This move is unprecedented, as no U.S. administration has ever banned, blocked or sanctioned a news organization. The Biden Administration through the Treasury Department placed financial sanctions against RT and TV Novosti, thereby making it illegal for American journalists to exercise their Constitutionally protected rights of freedom of speech and press.</p> <p class="has-text-align-left">The journalists targeted by these sanctions are <strong>American citizens. </strong>Not only did they lose their jobs, but also the opportunity to share factual reporting with an audience of over 800 million people across the globe. The bullying of social media companies by the Biden Administration was corruption on display, however, by outright banning a news organization what the Biden Administration has done is violation of Constitutional law.</p> <p class="has-text-align-left">We ask you to drop all sanctions against RT, Sputnik and TV Novosti and allow the public square to remain free for all voices, all journalists and all points of view.</p> <p class="has-text-align-left">Ben Swann</p> <div data-wp-interactive="core/file" class="wp-block-file"><object data-wp-bind--hidden="!state.hasPdfPreview" hidden class="wp-block-file__embed" data="https://truthinmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/RT-Sanctions-Letter-for-President-Trump-.pdf" type="application/pdf" style="width:100%;height:600px" aria-label="Embed of RT Sanctions Letter for President Trump."></object><a id="wp-block-file--media-d96c91b8-d7b1-464b-bd33-aa0461e2687b" href="https://truthinmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/RT-Sanctions-Letter-for-President-Trump-.pdf">RT Sanctions Letter for President Trump</a><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/RT-Sanctions-Letter-for-President-Trump-.pdf" class="wp-block-file__button wp-element-button" download aria-describedby="wp-block-file--media-d96c91b8-d7b1-464b-bd33-aa0461e2687b">Download</a></div> <p></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/open-letter-to-president-trump-time-to-end-the-biden-era-sanctions-against-rt-and-american-journalists/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Iranian Voices Share Criticism of Jimmy Carter After His Death</title> <link>https://truthinmedia.com/iranian-voices-share-criticism-of-jimmy-carter-after-his-death/</link> <comments>https://truthinmedia.com/iranian-voices-share-criticism-of-jimmy-carter-after-his-death/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Reed Cooley]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Sat, 04 Jan 2025 01:57:36 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://truthinmedia.com/?p=6273</guid> <description><![CDATA[The death of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter at the age of 100 has prompted a predominantly critical response from Iranians, particularly those opposed to the Islamic Republic, according to reports from Voice of America’s Persian service.

Most of these callers, including 11 from Iran and one from the U.S., blamed Carter for his role in the events leading to the 1979 Islamic Revolution. They accused him of enabling Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini’s rise to power which resulted in the establishment of the Islamic Republic.</p> <p>Critics on the show pointed to Carter’s perceived support for Khomeini, who led the overthrow of the U.S.-backed Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. One caller specifically stated, “He [Carter] is responsible for the Islamic Republic’s first supreme leader coming to power,” reflecting a common sentiment among those who view Carter’s presidency as having a detrimental impact on Iran’s political landscape.</p> <p>Despite the wave of criticism, there were nuanced voices acknowledging Carter’s post-presidency efforts. Ardeshir Abdi, a journalist, highlighted that while Carter was criticized for his handling of the Iranian Revolution, his later years were marked by efforts to promote Middle East peace and warn about the trajectory of the Arab-Israeli conflict. “President Carter’s legacy is multi-layered and complex,” Abdi noted, indicating that Carter’s impact cannot be simply categorized as wholly negative or positive.</p> <p><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/?" data-type="link" data-id="https://truthinmedia.com/?">Find more breaking news alerts from Truth in Media here.</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/iranian-voices-share-criticism-of-jimmy-carter-after-his-death/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Zelenskyy: “The War Will End Once Trump is Inaugurated”</title> <link>https://truthinmedia.com/zelenskyy-the-war-will-end-once-trump-is-inaugurated/</link> <comments>https://truthinmedia.com/zelenskyy-the-war-will-end-once-trump-is-inaugurated/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Reed Cooley]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Sat, 04 Jan 2025 01:54:13 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://truthinmedia.com/?p=6271</guid> <description><![CDATA[This week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed optimism about the cessation of hostilities with Russia following the upcoming inauguration of Donald J.

Trump as President of the United States, saying that Trump “will be able to bring peace and end Putin’s aggression” once he assumes office.</p> <p>Despite past tensions regarding peace negotiations, Zelenskyy highlighted a constructive conversation with Trump, suggesting a potential shift in U.S. policy towards the conflict. “I have no doubt that the new American president wants and will be able to bring peace and end [Russian President Vladimir] Putin’s aggression,” Zelenskyy remarked in a video message to the Ukrainian people, emphasizing that peace cannot be achieved without confronting Russian aggression head-on.</p> <p>Zelenskyy’s comments come in the wake of Trump’s repeated claims during his campaign that he could resolve the Ukraine-Russia war “within 24 hours,” though specifics of his plan remain undisclosed. Trump has nominated Keith Kellogg as special envoy to facilitate peace talks between Kyiv and Moscow, indicating a proactive approach to ending the conflict which began with Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022.</p> <p><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/?" data-type="link" data-id="https://truthinmedia.com/?">Find more breaking news alerts from Truth in Media here.</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/zelenskyy-the-war-will-end-once-trump-is-inaugurated/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Mike Johnson Reelected as Speaker of the House</title> <link>https://truthinmedia.com/mike-johnson-reelected-as-speaker-of-the-house/</link> <comments>https://truthinmedia.com/mike-johnson-reelected-as-speaker-of-the-house/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Reed Cooley]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Sat, 04 Jan 2025 01:50:29 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://truthinmedia.com/?p=6269</guid> <description><![CDATA[On Friday, U.S. Rep.

Mike Johnson has been reelected as Speaker of the House, securing his position with a narrow 218-215 margin over Democratic challenger Hakeem Jeffries.</p> <p>The vote revealed significant internal divisions within the Republican Party, casting a shadow over the unity of President-Elect Donald Trump’s congressional majority.</p> <p>Johnson, previously a little-known Louisiana congressman, was thrust into the national spotlight last year following the unprecedented ousting of former Speaker Kevin McCarthy. His reelection today was not without its challenges, as three GOP members initially voted against him, underscoring the fragility of his leadership in a party with a slim 219-215 majority.</p> <p>Despite Trump’s endorsement, which he described Johnson as “a good, hard-working, religious man,” the dissent within the GOP ranks was palpable. Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky voted against Johnson, while Reps. Ralph Norman of South Carolina and Keith Self of Texas initially defected but later switched their votes, ensuring Johnson’s victory on the first ballot.</p> <p><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/?" data-type="link" data-id="https://truthinmedia.com/?">Find more breaking news alerts from Truth in Media here.</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/mike-johnson-reelected-as-speaker-of-the-house/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Tesla Cybertruck Explosion at Las Vegas Trump Hotel Investigated as Potential Terrorism Act</title> <link>https://truthinmedia.com/tesla-cybertruck-explosion-at-las-vegas-trump-hotel-investigated-as-potential-terrorism-act/</link> <comments>https://truthinmedia.com/tesla-cybertruck-explosion-at-las-vegas-trump-hotel-investigated-as-potential-terrorism-act/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Reed Cooley]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Thu, 02 Jan 2025 16:30:23 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://truthinmedia.com/?p=6267</guid> <description><![CDATA[On Wednesday, a Tesla Cybertruck burst into flames outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas, leading to one death and several injuries.

The explosion took place around 8:40 a.m. local time, creating a scene of chaos as emergency services rushed to the scene to combat the fire and secure the area.</p> <p>Investigations led by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and the FBI have uncovered that the Cybertruck was intentionally laden with explosives. Sheriff Kevin McMahill detailed during a press conference that the truck contained gasoline canisters, camp fuel canisters, and large firework mortars, suggesting premeditation. This incident comes on the heels of another attack in New Orleans where a rented truck was driven into a crowd, raising concerns about possible connections between the two events.</p> <p>Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been vocal on X about the incident, stating that the explosion was “caused by very large fireworks and/or a bomb carried in the bed of the rented Cybertruck and is unrelated to the vehicle itself.” He further confirmed that all vehicle telemetry was positive before the explosion, indicating no mechanical fault in the Cybertruck itself.</p> <p>The Cybertruck involved was rented through Turo, the same company used for the vehicle in the New Orleans attack, according to Sheriff McMahill. This has led to an intensified investigation into whether there might be a coordinated effort behind these attacks. Although no direct link to any terrorist organization has been established, the use of similar modus operandi and rental services has sparked speculation.</p> <p>The Trump International Hotel was evacuated following the explosion, with guests being relocated to Resorts World Las Vegas for their safety. Eric Trump expressed gratitude towards the Las Vegas Fire Department and local law enforcement for their swift response, emphasizing the safety and well-being of guests and staff as the hotel’s top priority.</p> <p><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/?" data-type="link" data-id="https://truthinmedia.com/?">Find more breaking news alerts from Truth in Media here.</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/tesla-cybertruck-explosion-at-las-vegas-trump-hotel-investigated-as-potential-terrorism-act/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Biden Gives January 6 Committee Members Presidential Citizens Medal</title> <link>https://truthinmedia.com/biden-gives-january-6-committee-members-presidential-citizens-medal/</link> <comments>https://truthinmedia.com/biden-gives-january-6-committee-members-presidential-citizens-medal/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Reed Cooley]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Thu, 02 Jan 2025 16:25:11 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://truthinmedia.com/?p=6263</guid> <description><![CDATA[As of Thursday, President Joe Biden is set to award the Presidential Citizens Medal, the nation’s second-highest civilian honor, to U.S. Reps.

The suspect, identified as 42-year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar, was an Army veteran from Texas with a background in real estate and IT, who had reportedly struggled with financial issues in recent years.</p> <p>According to law enforcement, Jabbar drove a truck into a throng of revelers at approximately 3:15 a.m. on January 1, 2025, in the heart of the French Quarter. The vehicle was later confirmed to be rented, and the attack has been characterized by officials as deliberate and deadly.</p> <p>Jabbar, a U.S. citizen, served in the Army from 2006 to 2015, including a deployment to Afghanistan in 2009. After his military service, he held positions in real estate and IT, notably working for Deloitte until the attack. His LinkedIn profile, now removed, indicated a career shift towards civilian roles after his military service. His background also includes minor legal troubles, with charges of misdemeanor theft in 2002 and driving with an invalid license in 2005.</p> <p>The incident has prompted an immediate response from both local and federal authorities. The FBI has taken over the investigation, treating the attack as an act of terrorism. President Joe Biden was briefed on the situation, and condolences from around the world have started to pour in, including from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who condemned the act as “cowardly.”</p> <p><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/?" data-type="link" data-id="https://truthinmedia.com/?">Find more breaking news alerts from Truth in Media here.</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/shamsud-din-jabbar-identified-as-suspect-in-nola-terrorist-attack/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Tornadoes Sweep Texas and Mississippi, Killing At Least Two</title> <link>https://truthinmedia.com/tornadoes-sweep-texas-and-mississippi-killing-at-least-two/</link> <comments>https://truthinmedia.com/tornadoes-sweep-texas-and-mississippi-killing-at-least-two/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Reed Cooley]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Sun, 29 Dec 2024 22:55:46 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://truthinmedia.com/?p=6257</guid> <description><![CDATA[A series of severe storms, including multiple tornadoes, swept across parts of Texas and Mississippi on Saturday, leaving a trail of destruction and claiming at least two lives.

The National Weather Service reported significant damage, with homes destroyed, vehicles flipped, and widespread power outages across the affected regions.</p> <p>In Texas, one person was confirmed dead in the Liverpool area, south of Houston, where four others sustained non-critical injuries, according to Madison Polston, a spokesperson for the Brazoria County Sheriff’s Office. Polston described the impact as severe, noting “multiple touchdown points” in the county between Liverpool, Hillcrest Village, and Alvin. “The extent of the damage is still being assessed,” Polston added, indicating that at least ten homes were known to be damaged.</p> <p>The storms were part of a larger weather system moving eastward, with the National Weather Service issuing tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings for parts of Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia. The same system was expected to continue causing havoc overnight into Sunday morning.</p> <p>In Mississippi, the city of Natchez reported one fatality and two injuries due to the severe weather, according to Malary White, spokesperson for the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency. Details on how the death occurred were not immediately available.</p> <p>Tornadoes were confirmed to have touched down in several locations, with the Houston metro area particularly hard-hit. Videos and photos from the scene showed debris flying through the air, cars overturned, and buildings with roofs torn off. Emergency services were on high alert, conducting search and rescue operations while assessing the full scope of the damage.</p> <p><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/?" data-type="link" data-id="https://truthinmedia.com/?">Find more breaking news alerts from Truth in Media here.</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/tornadoes-sweep-texas-and-mississippi-killing-at-least-two/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Elon Musk Changes Stance on H-1B Visas Amid MAGA Backlash</title> <link>https://truthinmedia.com/elon-musk-changes-stance-on-h-1b-visas-amid-maga-backlash/</link> <comments>https://truthinmedia.com/elon-musk-changes-stance-on-h-1b-visas-amid-maga-backlash/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Reed Cooley]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Sun, 29 Dec 2024 22:53:03 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://truthinmedia.com/?p=6255</guid> <description><![CDATA[In a significant pivot, Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO behind Tesla, SpaceX, and X, has acknowledged the need for reform in the H-1B visa program following an intense backlash from supporters of the MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement.

This appointment, coupled with Musk’s and Krishnan’s support for skilled immigration, led to a rift among MAGA supporters, particularly those advocating for stricter immigration policies like Laura Loomer.</p> <p>Musk, who himself benefited from the H-1B visa program when he first came to the U.S., has been a vocal proponent of attracting top global talent to bolster American industries, especially in tech. However, after facing criticism, he proposed a solution to the perceived abuse of the visa system.</p> <p>“Easily fixed by raising the minimum salary significantly and adding a yearly cost for maintaining the H1B, making it materially more expensive to hire from overseas than domestically,” Musk wrote on X late Saturday. This statement was in response to concerns that the visa was being used to hire lower-wage foreign workers at the expense of American employees.</p> <p><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/?" data-type="link" data-id="https://truthinmedia.com/?">Find more breaking news alerts from Truth in Media here.</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/elon-musk-changes-stance-on-h-1b-visas-amid-maga-backlash/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Former President Jimmy Carter Dies at 100</title> <link>https://truthinmedia.com/former-president-jimmy-carter-dies-at-100/</link> <comments>https://truthinmedia.com/former-president-jimmy-carter-dies-at-100/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Reed Cooley]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Sun, 29 Dec 2024 22:48:36 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://truthinmedia.com/?p=6253</guid> <description><![CDATA[Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the United States, died on Sunday at the age of 100 in his hometown of Plains, Georgia.

His death was announced by his son, Chip Carter, in a statement released by The Carter Center.</p> <p>Carter, who served as president from 1977 to 1981, was the oldest living U.S. president at the time of his passing. His term in office was marked by significant challenges, including high inflation, the energy crisis, and the Iran hostage crisis. However, his post-presidential life was defined by a legacy of peace and humanitarian efforts, for which he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002.</p> <p>The announcement of Carter’s death has led to an outpouring of tributes from across the political spectrum, with many praising his contributions to peace and democracy. President-elect Donald Trump, among others, acknowledged Carter’s efforts during his presidency and his contributions post-office, stating, “The challenges Jimmy faced as President came at a pivotal time for our country and he did everything in his power to improve the lives of all Americans. For that, we all owe him a debt of gratitude.”</p> <p><a href="https://truthinmedia.com/?" data-type="link" data-id="https://truthinmedia.com/?">Find more breaking news alerts from Truth in Media here.</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://truthinmedia.com/former-president-jimmy-carter-dies-at-100/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel></rss> If you would like to create a banner that links to this page (i.e. this validation result), do the following:
