Washington (CNN) — The Biden administration is considering using outside firms to track extremist chatter by Americans online, an effort that would expand the government's ability to gather intelligence but could draw criticism over surveillance of US citizens. The Department of Homeland Security is limited in how it can monitor citizens online without justification and is banned from activities like assuming false identities to gain access to private messaging apps used by extremist groups such as the Proud Boys or Oath Keepers. Instead, federal authorities can only browse through unprotected information on social media sites like Twitter and Facebook and other open online platforms. The plan being discussed inside DHS, according to multiple sources, would, in effect, allow the department to circumvent those limits. A source familiar with the effort said it is not about decrypting data but rather using outside entities who can legally access these private groups to gather large...

Authorities in Washington D.C., released body camera footage Monday from an officer that shows him and another cop involved in an alleged drag race that ended when they collided with another police cruiser. On April 22, two cruisers with two officers inside each vehicle were sitting at the 1400 block of Anacostia Avenue northeast at around 5:15 p.m., the Metropolitan Police Department said. The nearly four-minute video shows the vantage point of one officer's bodycam with no audio as he sits in the passenger seat in one of the vehicles. The officer and his partner appear to be talking before they drive off. A little more than 30 seconds into the drive the airbags for the driver and passenger deploy. The cop in the passenger seat gets out of the cruiser and stumbles across the street. He activated his camera upon impact. Both police vehicles slammed into each other, authorities said. All four officers involved were hurt and the vehicles had major damage. One of the officers was...

Patrisse Khan-Cullors, the leader of Black Lives Matter and a self-described Marxist, recently purchased a $1.4 million home in an exclusive Los Angeles neighborhood where the vast majority of residents are white, according to reports. The home, which features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, is nestled in Topanga Canyon and has a separate guesthouse on the property, according to a celebrity real estate blog which reported the transaction last week. The property, which is about a 15 minute drive from Malibu beaches, features bamboo floors and vaulted ceilings, according to the listing. Once a hippie enclave in the 1960s, Topanga Canyon is now home to sprawling homes where 88 percent of the residents are white. After the sale of the property was made public, critics took to social media to blast Khan-Cullors. Black Lives Matter, which began as hashtag in response to the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the 2012 shooting of Trayvon Martin, took in more than $90 million last...

I'm sure everyone is familiar with this story by now, but here it is for those that haven't heard everything about it yet. Pornhub’s co-founder and CEO Feras Antoon’s home was set on fire in Montreal last night. Antoon recently put the home up for sale in Montreal with a price tag of $19 million. The house included seven bathrooms and nine parking spots as well as a basketball court that also served as a ballroom. On Sunday night, around 11:30 PM, the police were called as two individuals were seen near the property which was still under construction. When officers arrived on the scene, a fire was raging inside the home. Pornhub has come under fire in recent months following a piece by the New York Times. The piece verifiably detailed the company’s lax enforcement of the laws. It detailed multiple instances of rapes being shared on the platform, along with underage content and violence. Justin Trudeau came under fire for letting Canada tolerate a company whose head office...

Portland’s mayor and acting police chief on Friday urged the public to safely stand up to the black bloc group of violent demonstrators who continue to plan “direct actions” around the city that routinely end with shattered windows, fires and other vandalism. Both said they believe residents are fed up watching the threats and destruction by a small group of “self-described anarchists.” “They want to burn,” Mayor Ted Wheeler said. “They want to bash, like they did to the nonprofit Boys and Girls Club in Northeast. Really they want to intimidate. They want to assault. “If BLM leaders can show the courage to stand up to this mob, then we all should. ... Make a stand and take our city back,” he said. Wheeler asked residents to note the license plates of people who drive to the events in various neighborhoods and then don all black clothing and grab shields or weapons from their cars. Share those license numbers with police, he said. If people overhear others bragging about the...
