House Dem warns both sides on ‘road to ruin’ as political divide deepens over Kirk assassination

A moderate House Democrat said he believes both Republicans and his own party have fallen short in their responses to the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

‘I’m disappointed. I wish that there was more effort as a group, Democrats and Republicans, to express condolences for his family and for him, and to express the real sadness that it engenders,’ Rep. Tom Suozzi, D-N.Y., told Fox News Digital in an interview. 

He warned later, ‘Punch, counter-punch is the natural reaction of most human beings. But we can’t just keep on doing this. It’s very destructive, and it’s a road to ruin.’

Suozzi said he believed leaders, in particular, on both sides of the aisle needed to do more.

‘I don’t think there’s been enough of an effort to try and bring us together,’ he said.

The New York lawmaker was one of a handful of Democrats who attended a memorial vigil in Kirk’s honor called by House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., at the U.S. Capitol on Monday.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., told reporters that he did not attend because he ‘had a meeting.’

But Suozzi said he spoke with several House Democrats who said they simply were not aware it was happening.

‘I’m not casting blame on anybody, Democrats or Republicans. I don’t know the facts as far as what kind of outreach was made,’ Suozzi said.

‘I do know that I spoke to several members, you know, [Democrats] that I know that attend the bipartisan prayer breakfast, for example. And they said, ‘Oh, I didn’t even know about it.”

Both Jeffries and Johnson have made calls for unity in the wake of Kirk’s killing last week, and lawmakers have expressed bipartisan condemnation of political violence.

But partisan tensions have erupted since then, with Republicans blaming Democrats for their anti-GOP rhetoric and for fomenting the political tension that led to Kirk’s death.

Democrats, in turn, have accused Republicans of similarly inflaming tensions both before and after the assassination.

In the House, scrutiny has been centered on Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., after an interview with progressive news outlet Zeteo, where conservatives have accused her of disparaging Kirk’s legacy days after his death.

‘There are a lot of people who are out there talking about him just wanting to have a civil debate,’ Omar said. ‘There is nothing more effed up, you know, like, than to completely pretend that, you know, his words and actions have not been recorded and in existence for the last decade or so.’

The Minnesota progressive also called Kirk’s death ‘mortifying’ and expressed condolences for his wife and young children.

Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., is now moving to force a vote to censure Omar for her comments, a move Suozzi called ‘very unhelpful.’

When asked about Omar’s remarks, Suozzi did not mention her directly but said, ‘I just don’t think that this is the time to be trying to incite more anger for people.’

If he was able to give remarks at Kirk’s vigil, for example, Suozzi said, ‘I would say I didn’t really know Charlie Kirk or much about him before this incident. But like everybody, I’ve been seeing all the media reports since his assassination, and I saw a couple different times people would ask, ‘What, what would you want to be remembered for?’ And he said, ‘I want to be remembered for having the courage to live my faith.’’

‘One of the most difficult concepts that Jesus ever had was to love your enemies,’ Suozzi said. ‘And that’s what we need to be doing right now.’

Suozzi also blamed the current social media environment for fueling divisions.

‘We have to understand that there are very strong forces working against us right now. Social media is, you know, being corrupted, I think, not only by our foreign adversaries, but also by people trying to get political or financial gain,’ he said.

‘I think that we have to be very conscious of the fact that there are people that use our freedom of speech and use our social media … that are just lying and putting up doctored videos and explosive commentary to get us … to hate each other.’

About Empire Metals Limited

Empire Metals is an AIM-listedand OTCQX-traded exploration and resource development company (LON: EEE,OTCQX: EPMLF) with a primary focus on developing Pitfield, an emerging giant titanium project in Western Australia.

The high-grade titanium discovery at Pitfield is of unprecedented scale, with airborne surveys identifying a massive, coincident gravity and magnetics anomaly extending over 40km by 8km by 5km deep. Drill results have indicated excellent continuity in grades and consistency of the in-situ mineralised beds and confirm that the sandstone beds hold the higher-grade titanium dioxide (TiO₂) values within the interbedded succession of sandstones, siltstones and conglomerates. The Company is focused on two key prospects (Cosgrove and Thomas), which have been identified as having thick, high-grade, near-surface, in-situ bedded TiO₂ mineralisation, each being over 7km in strike length.

An Exploration Target* for Pitfield was declared in 2024, covering the Thomas and Cosgrove mineral prospects, and was estimated to contain between 26.4 to 32.2 billion tonnes with a grade range of 4.5 to 5.5% TiO2. Included within the total Exploration Target* is a subset that covers the in-situ weathered sandstone zone, which extends from surface to an average vertical depth of 30m to 40m and is estimated to contain between 4.0 to 4.9 billion tonnes with a grade range of 4.8 to 5.9% TiO2.

The Exploration Target* covers an area less than 20% of the overall mineral system at Pitfield which demonstrates the potential for significant further upside.

Empire is now accelerating the economic development of Pitfield, with a vision to produce a high-value titanium metal or pigment quality product at Pitfield, to realise the full value potential of this exceptional deposit.

The Company also has two further exploration projects in Australia; the Eclipse Project and the Walton Project in Western Australia, in addition to three precious metals projects located in a historically high-grade gold producing region of Austria.

*The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. See RNS dated 12 June 2024 for full details.

Canada One Commences 2025 Field Work Program at Flagship, Copper Dome Project

Canada One Mining Corp. (TSXV: CONE) (OTC Pink: COMCF) (FSE: AU31) (‘Canada One’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce the launch of its 2025 field exploration program at its flagship Copper Dome Project (‘Copper Dome’, ‘Property’ or ‘Project’), located 18 km south of Princeton, British Columbia.

2025 FIELD WORK PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

  • Priority target: Boundary Zone — 1 × 2 km Cu-Au soil anomaly
  • Follow-up targets: Friday Creek, Combination, Haul Road zones (mapping + rock sampling)
  • Workstreams: detailed geological mapping, systematic rock geochemistry, alteration mapping
  • Core program: re-log, catalogue, reinterpret historical core around key intercepts
  • Outcome: ranked, data-driven target matrix to guide next steps toward drill-targeting

Peter Berdusco, President & CEO of the Company, commented: ‘We are excited to kick off our 2025 field work at Copper Dome. The Boundary Zone—a recently identified 1 × 2 km Cu–Au anomaly with historical rock samples up to 43% Cu—will anchor our systematic mapping and geochemistry. In parallel, we will refine the Friday Creek, Combination, and Haul Road zones and re-log historical core to deliver a ranked, data-driven target matrix.’

2025 Field Work Program Summary

The 2025 program will prioritize exploration of the Boundary Zone, a newly defined target characterized by a 1 km by 2-km copper-gold soil geochemical anomaly (See Figure 1: ‘Map of Copper Dome Zones with Historical Work and Prospective Area’). Historical rock sampling on the western margin of the Boundary Zone returned exceptional assays of up to 43% Cu, 28.16 g/t Au, and 18.19 g/t Pd. Given the limited historical work in this area, the Company’s field efforts will focus on systematic geochemical rock sampling and detailed geological mapping. This work aims to better understand the nature of copper-gold mineralization, identify alteration assemblages, and evaluate the proximity of potential porphyry centers relative to the Boundary Zone.

In addition, follow-up rock sampling and geological mapping will be conducted on the Friday Creek, Combination, and Haul Road zones which are adjacent to the Boundary Zone (See Figure 2: ‘Location Map of the Copper Dome Project’). The Friday Creek and Combination zones have seen limited historical diamond drilling that tested both geophysical and geochemical anomalies, with notable results including:

  • DDH FC-01: 8.0 m grading 0.55% Cu and 2.8 g/t Au
  • DDH FC-02: 15.0 m grading 0.32% Cu and 0.98 g/t Au
  • DDH FC-12: 42.5 m grading 0.28% Cu, including 6.0 m grading 1.5% Cu and 0.70 g/t Au
  • DDH FC-10-17: 19.5 m grading 0.71% Cu, including 2.0 m grading 4.08% Cu
  • DDH FC-18: 102.7 m grading 0.14% Cu, including 20.0 m grading 0.64% Cu

Understanding the geological framework of these zones will be critical in developing a comprehensive target matrix for future drill testing. The Company’s objective is to define the specific geological settings of each target and identify those with the most favourable characteristics for copper-gold porphyry centers.

As part of the 2025 program, field crews will also evaluate the condition of historical drill core for relogging, cataloguing, and reinterpretation, with particular attention to the most significant historical intercepts.

LimeWire acquires Fyre Festival, asking ‘What Could Possibly Go Wrong?’

LimeWire, the filesharing service that set the internet ablaze in the 2000s before being shut down for copyright infringement, said Tuesday that is acquiring the rights to Fyre Festival.

And it appreciates the irony.

‘LimeWire Acquires Fyre Festival Brand — What Could Possibly Go Wrong?’ the company titled its news release.

LimeWire said it would “unveil a reimagined vision for Fyre — one that expands beyond the digital realm and taps into real-world experiences, community, and surprise.” The company offered no additional details about how the Fyre brand will be relaunched.

For years, LimeWire operated as a competitor to fellow file-sharing platform Napster before being effectively shut down by a court ruling in 2010 after a judge ruled it had facilitated large-scale copyright violations. In 2022, Austrian brothers Julian and Paul Zehetmayr bought LimeWire’s intellectual property and turned it into an NFT service.

Fyre Festival was a 2017 music festival that saw ticket buyers spend thousands of dollars for a weekend in the Bahamas only to be met with a logistics debacle that included portable bathrooms taking the place of regular toilets, and low-budget food options that betrayed promises of celebrity chef fare. Organizer Billy McFarland was later convicted of fraud and sentenced to six years in prison.

“Fyre became a symbol of hype gone wrong, but it also made history,” LimeWire CEO Julian Zehetmayr said. “We’re not bringing the festival back — we’re bringing the brand and the meme back to life. This time with real experiences, and without the cheese sandwiches.”

LimeWire said its bid was backed by Maximum Effort, the creative agency co-founded by the actor and entrepreneur Ryan Reynolds.

“Congrats to LimeWire for their winning bid for Fyre Fest,” Reynolds said in the release. “I look forward to attending their first event but will be bringing my own palette of water.”

‘Most transparent’ FBI ever: Patel updates Senate on Kirk assassination probe

FBI Director Kash Patel vowed that the bureau would continue on a quest for transparency during his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee as criticism of his handling of the Charlie Kirk assassination investigation lingers.

In his opening statement to the committee obtained by Fox News Digital, Patel listed a series of accomplishments the agency has achieved since President Donald Trump took office, including tens of thousands of arrests, a realignment of the agency and an emphasis on cracking down on illicit drugs.

Patel acknowledged the growing criticism over his direction of the FBI and challenged lawmakers on the panel to come after him. 

‘I’m not going anywhere,’ he said. ‘If you want to criticize my 16 years of service, please bring it on.’

Patel kicked off his testimony by offering an update on the FBI’s investigation into the ‘appalling assassination of Charlie Kirk.’

‘It’s important that the FBI is as transparent as possible without jeopardizing our investigation,’ Patel said.

The FBI chief listed off numerous findings in the case, including an ‘extensive review’ of suspect Tyler Robinson’s accounts and devices. He said over 100 interviews had been conducted since the shooting, and that the FBI has received over 11,000 submissions through the National Threat Operations Center and over 16,000 submissions through the Digital Media Tipline.

‘We are making a traditionally nontransparent agency the most transparent it has ever been,’ Patel said.

He lauded the public participation in the case, too, and noted that the tens of thousands of tips that poured in helped identify a suspect.

‘Tyler Robinson is in custody today because of this partnership,’ he said.

Patel’s appearance before the committee had been on the books for weeks before Kirk’s death and was initially geared as an annual oversight hearing of the FBI. However, his handling of the investigation, social media misfires and a wave of firings at the agency have generated fresh scrutiny over his leadership.

Patel came under the microscope for a post he made on X in the hours after Kirk was killed, where he wrote, ‘The subject for the horrific shooting today that took the life of Charlie Kirk is now in custody.’

However, that individual and another were caught and released before law enforcement nabbed 22-year-old Robinson, some 33 hours after the shooting.

Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, addressed Kirk briefly in his opening remarks, saying, ‘God Bless you, Charlie Kirk.’

The chair, who has advocated for whistleblowers for decades, then dove into lengthy remarks about government weaponization and praised Patel for compensating what he said were 10 FBI employees who lost their security clearances in recent years.

‘In the short amount of time you’ve been director, you’ve corrected whistleblower retaliation and increased transparency more than any other FBI director I’ve seen, and I’ve been around here more than anyone else on this committee,’ Grassley said.

But the top Democrat on the committee, Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., zeroed in on the wide swath of DOJ and FBI personnel who have been fired, sometimes without explanation, a topic expected to crop up repeatedly during Democrats’ questioning.

Durbin criticized Patel’s deference to Trump, saying the director ‘installed MAGA loyalists’ to key positions and initiated internal ‘loyalty tests,’ including polygraph tests. Durbin revealed that some FBI officials failed those tests and needed waivers to continue working at the bureau.

He noted the recent lawsuit brought by three ousted top FBI officials, who have accused Patel of unconstitutionally firing them and wielding the president’s Article II powers to do so.

Durbin also noted that Patel has little experience working in law enforcement, calling his inexperience ‘staggering’ and accusing him of fast-tracking similarly unqualified recruits to fill the FBI’s open jobs.

Patel repeatedly stressed that he has made strides to transform the agency into a more transparent organization and used the ‘Epstein files’ as an example.

Earlier this year a memo from the DOJ and FBI stated that ‘it is the determination of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation that no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted,’ after investigating the tens of thousands of documents associated with Jeffrey Epstein.

That triggered a firestorm on Capitol Hill that is still roiling. Prior to becoming director, Patel had promoted the idea that the government was hiding a secret list of sexual predators affiliated with Epstein. Patel during the hearing argued that the ‘original sin’ of the Epstein case began in the early 2000s, where ‘very limited search warrants that didn’t intake as much material into the FBI possession as it should have’ were issued. 

‘If I were FBI director then, I wouldn’t have allowed such a limited search warrant to be issued for these types of atrocious offenses,’ he said.

He argued that under former U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta, Epstein was allowed to enter into a plea deal with non-prosecution agreements, ‘plus the courts issued protective orders and sealed large volumes of material from ever being disclosed.’

‘The non-prosecution barred any future criminal culpability for this entire time period,’ Patel said.  ‘Still, this administration has done more than any of the previous administrations to seek transparency in this case.’

‘[The] DOJ has made motions to the court to unseal grand jury records on multiple occasions, but the courts have denied these motions,’ he continued. ‘Further, it was the first Trump administration that brought the renewed case against Epstein in 2019. Under the direction of this president, we have turned over ALL credible information in conjunction with our partners in Congress.’

Trump trial continues with more FBI testimony after rifle called ‘prepared to fire’

The federal trial of Ryan Routh, accused of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump as he played golf in September 2024, resumes Tuesday with more FBI forensic experts scheduled to testify.

On Monday, jurors heard FBI Firearms and Toolmarks Examiner Erich Smith, who alleged the rifle found near the sixth hole of Trump International Golf Club was a Chinese-made Norinco SKS. Smith said the weapon was ‘in working condition’ when recovered, test-fired successfully at the FBI lab, and was configured with a round in the chamber and the safety off — meaning it was ‘prepared to fire.’ 

He also testified the rifle’s serial number had been ‘obliterated in several places’ but could be partially restored.

Smith showed jurors the 7.62×39 mm full metal jacket rounds loaded in the rifle. 

‘Bullets are designed to put holes in things,’ he said. ‘It would have put a hole in something if it had hit the target.’

Routh, representing himself, cross-examined Smith about whether all SKS rifles are semi-automatic, whether test-firings were videotaped and whether the gun could have changed hands at a gun show before he obtained it. 

‘So, we’re just supposed to take your word for it?‘ Routh asked Smith. 

Smith replied: ‘That’s what happened.’ 

Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon sustained prosecution objections when Routh strayed beyond the scope of testimony. 

The court also heard from FBI biologist Curtis Gaul, who testified about collecting potential DNA samples from the rifle grip, a glove, zip ties and other items found. Routh cross-examined briefly, asking where the glove was found and whether Gaul knew who removed the rifle’s scope.

Cannon cut off questioning several times, urging both prosecutors and Routh to keep examinations moving. 

Jurors appeared confused during parts of Gaul’s testimony, as prosecutors referenced exhibit numbers without always displaying them. Meanwhile, Routh was seen leaning forward, taking notes and staring intently when fingerprints reportedly matching his own were displayed on a screen.

When court resumes Tuesday morning, prosecutors are expected to call FBI biologist Kara Gregor, followed by additional FBI specialists in digital forensics and supervisory roles as they continue building their case against Routh.

Trump pressures Republicans to pass a continuing resolution to avert a government shutdown

As the deadline to fund the government and avoid a partial government shutdown approaches, President Donald Trump has pressured Republican lawmakers to pass a continuing resolution.

‘Congressional Republicans, including Leader John Thune and Speaker Mike Johnson, are working on a short term ‘CLEAN’ extension of Government Funding to stop Cryin’ Chuck Schumer from shutting down the Government. In times like these, Republicans have to stick TOGETHER to fight back against the Radical Left Democrat demands, and vote ‘YES!’ on both Votes needed to pass a Clean CR this week out of the House of Representatives,’ Trump declared in a Monday Truth Social post.

‘Democrats want the Government to shut down. Republicans want the Government to OPEN. Democrats love CRIME, Republicans make our Country SAFE — WE HATE CRIME. FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION. Thank you for your attention to this matter!’ the president added.

Given the current partisan composition of the lower chamber, the House GOP could only afford to lose two Republican votes while trying to pass a continuing resolution strictly along party lines — if just three Republicans break ranks and oppose passage, the House GOP would lack the votes needed to ram through a stopgap funding measure without Democratic support.

Some House Republicans have objected to the prospect of a continuing resolution.

‘@SpeakerJohnson wants to pass a Continuing Resolution (CR) until the holidays. This CR would be a copy of the uniparty spending bill under Autopen Biden. I didn’t vote for those spending priorities when Biden was President and I won’t vote for them now,’ Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., said in a Monday afternoon post on X.

Prior to publication of Trump’s Truth Social post on Monday, Republican Rep. Warren Davidson of Ohio noted in part of a post on X, ‘I already hated status quo thinking and approaches (soft incrementalism at best), so I’m out on another CR for the sake of more government. We know we need a smaller, more accountable, more focused America First government. I will tolerate nothing else.’

Also shortly before Trump pressured Republicans in the Monday Truth Social post, GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia declared in a post on X, ‘I can’t wait to see how voting for the CR becomes a Trump loyalty test. When in all actual reality, it’s a disloyalty to him by passing a Biden policy laden omnibus. 

‘Instead of passing a Republican appropriations bill with Trump policies and our spending priorities, in order to make his policies permanent. By continuing to pass CR’s, those that demand it and support it, are making Trump a temporary president with temporary policies. Get ready for the spin with paid influencers, bot accounts, and ‘friendly’media supporting,’ the congresswoman added.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said the continuing resolution ‘will have a few anomalies in it,’ according to The Hill.
