WATCH -- Islamic Influencer in Dearborn: Allah Sent Muslims to USA to ‘Civilize’ Primitive, ‘Backwards’ WestIt was a big year of news at The Epoch Times Australia, with several stories garnering local and international attention. The cause was taken up by One Nation Leader Pauline Hanson, who later said the retailer had responded to her queries to clarify its position—that store teams are free to mark Australia Day in a way that suits them. “In the past, some of our stores have chosen to display the Australian flag alongside the Aboriginal and the Torres Strait Islander flags, and others have run team and customer activities,” Director of Store Operations Ben Camire told The Epoch Times. Australia Day continues to be a contentious topic as some Indigenous and progressive groups call for the date to be moved. More than one in five Australian adults have high blood pressure, but researchers discovered many are not receiving adequate treatment. Around half of all sufferers are unaware they have an issue. “Blood pressure is the leading cause of death. Lots of people are not aware of that,” said lead author Alta Schutte, a professor of cardiovascular medicine at UNSW Sydney. Bankwest explained its decision had come about because only 2 percent of customers actually visited physical branches, while admitting the change would be “difficult news” for some. The Finance Sector Union criticised the move, saying it would disadvantage older or regional customers. Australian banks closed 424 branches and 718 automatic teller machines (ATM) during the 2023 financial year, proving the cashless trend is moving full steam ahead. Renmark High School, in the Riverland region, had brought in a third-party presenter from mental health clinic Berri. The presenter ushered the girls into a room and proceeded to swear and talk about bestiality and incest, and how those things were accepted under the LGBT banner. The Epoch Times reported some girls had been so upset they had to fake the need for bathroom breaks. It was understood the session happened without parental approval, and without teachers present. Ben Hood, shadow assistant minister for regional South Australia, said he had spoken to many parents about their growing concerns and determined that Renmark may not have been an isolated incident. A court found it was “unreasonable” to demand Ooi get vaccinated because she had a valid work-from-home agreement in place. “I’ve been on this file since 2006. It’s 18 years,” he told The Epoch Times on June 4, during his visit to the Australian Parliament. “That’s slow.” Matas and fellow human rights lawyer David Kilgour authored a report in 2006 that confirmed state-sanctioned organ harvesting was occurring in China. The investigation found the main source of organs was from practitioners of Falun Gong, a spiritual practice from the Buddhist tradition. The cancer, myeloma, is expected to affect 80,000 people by 2043. Myeloma affects plasma cells found inside bone marrow, which creates antibodies to kill viruses, bacteria, and fungi. When a person has myeloma, the cells do not fulfil their function and crowd the marrow so there is not enough room for new working cells to grow. Symptoms include fatigue, prolonged infections, and unexplained bone aches or bruising, but the signs can be subtle and often go undetected for some time. Male-to-female trans woman Roxanne Tickle brought legal action against the founder of the Giggle for Girls app Sall Grover after she blocked Tickle from joining. In Grover’s judgement, Tickle was not a biological woman. However, Justice Robert Bromwich found Grover had committed an instance of “indirect gender identity discrimination,” but not direct discrimination—a broader ground. Grover was ordered to pay $10,000 in compensation and legal costs—a fraction of the $200,000 claimed by Tickle. During the proceedings, the court found that “sex is changeable.” CEO Rachael Wong said the case was a let-down for women across the nation. Consumers were advised to go to their nearest MINI dealer for a free software upgrade at no cost. The story was one of many during the year highlighting the potential dangers of lithium batteries. The court ruled that the company cannot avoid responsibility for a fine or daily penalty for non-payment and must also pay the commissioner’s court costs. In October 2023, the Office of eSafety fined what was then Twitter $610,500 after it failed to satisfactorily answer questions about harmful content on its platform, particularly child sexual abuse material. This fine, issued under Australia’s Online Safety Act, could incur daily penalties of $780,000 for each additional day the company does not respond. The notice, issued in February 2023, required the platform to prepare a report about the extent to which it had complied with eSafety’s expectations for the year leading up to January. The deadline for submission was March 29, and the required form included 31 numbered questions, many with sub-questions. The conservative commentator, aged 83, faces a total number of 34 charges against him. Jones has always insisted he is innocent throughout the process, and has an active defamation case against Nine Entertainment newspapers that will likely be put on hold until the criminal trial takes place. The Juru people of the Burdekin region said the ceremony had become commercialised and were practiced divorced from their original traditional context—to ensure people were safe on the “country.” “What I can see today is Welcome to Country has become a bit of, it’s a business that supports some individuals and that’s where, again, they’re losing the cultural insight of what the Welcome to Countries are about,” Juru Indigenous elder Randall Ross told 4BC Radio.

Revolving Misfortunes of the Southern RegionWEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump appears to be siding with Elon Musk and his other backers in the tech industry as a dispute over immigration visas has divided his supporters. Trump, in an interview with the New York Post on Saturday, praised the use of visas to bring skilled foreign workers to the U.S. The topic has become a flashpoint within his conservative base. “I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them," Trump said. In fact, Trump has in the past criticized the H-1B visas, calling them “very bad” and “unfair” for U.S. workers. During his first term as president, he unveiled a “Hire American” policy that directed changes to the program to try to ensure the visas were awarded to the highest-paid or most-skilled applicants. Despite his criticism of them and attempts to curb their use, he has also used the visas at his businesses in the past, something he acknowledged in his interview Saturday. “I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It’s a great program," Trump told the newspaper. He did not appear to address questions about whether he would pursue any changes to the number or use of the visas once he takes office Jan. 20. Trump's hardline immigration policies, focused mostly on immigrants who are in the country illegally, were a cornerstone of his presidential campaign and a priority issue for his supporters. But in recent days, his coalition has split in a public debate largely taking place online about the tech industry's hiring of foreign workers. Hard-right members of Trump's movement have accused Musk and others in Trump's new flank of tech-world supporters of pushing policies at odds with Trump's “America First" vision. Software engineers and others in the tech industry have used H-1B visas for skilled foreign workers and say they are a critical tool for hard-to-fill positions. But critics have said they undercut U.S. citizens who could take those jobs. Some on the right have called for the program to be eliminated. Michelle L.

Saquon Barkley rushed for 167 yards to join the 2,000-yard club and the Philadelphia Eagles clinched the NFC East title with a lopsided 41-7 victory against the visiting Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. The Eagles (13-3) swept the rival Cowboys (7-9) for the first time since 2011 and locked up at least the No. 2 seed in the NFC playoffs. With his 11th 100-yard game of the year, Barkley became the ninth player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a season. Sitting on 2,005 yards, he needs 101 to break Eric Dickerson's NFL single-season record of 2,105 set in 16 games in 1984. Starting for Philadelphia with Jalen Hurts in the concussion protocol, Kenny Pickett tallied a touchdown pass and a touchdown run before exiting early in the third quarter with a rib injury. Tanner McKee, making his NFL debut, replaced Pickett and threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to A.J. Brown to put the Eagles up 34-7 with 2:44 left in the third quarter. McKee added a 25-yard TD pass in the fourth quarter to DeVonta Smith, who finished with six catches for 120 yards and two scores. The Cowboys turned the ball over four times. Cooper Rush threw two interceptions and one touchdown pass and Rico Dowdle rushed for 104 yards to notch his first 1,000-yard season (1,007). Philadelphia built a 24-7 halftime lead by scoring 17 points off three Dallas turnovers. The Cowboys' opening drive ended in a 70-yard interception return for a touchdown by C.J. Gardner-Johnson. Rush shook off the pick-6 and fired a game-tying 4-yard TD pass to Jalen Tolbert with 5:38 left in the first quarter. Pickett's 22-yard strike to Smith put Philadelphia ahead for good at 14-7 midway through the second quarter. Jake Elliott's 31-yard field goal made it 17-7 after Jordan Davis recovered a fumble by the Cowboys' Jake Ferguson. Gardner-Johnson's second interception gave Philadelphia the ball back with 36 seconds left in the half. Smith's 49-yard catch got the Eagles to the doorstep and Pickett punched it in. Elliott's 26-yarder extended the lead to 27-7 on the first drive of the third quarter, but Pickett's day was over after absorbing a hit from Micah Parsons. --Field Level Media
