Remember when it was found that some popular workout apps could potentially reveal unit locations? Well, it happened again, in a BIG way.<\/p>\n

A French naval officer revealed the location of the Charles de Gaulle, the flagship of the Marine Nationale, by publicly posting a run via smartwatch to the popular app last week. The 4.5-mile run around one of the carrier decks stands out as a jagged line in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.<\/p>\n

The Charles de Gaulle’s position was more sensitive than usual because it was the lead ship in a carrier strike group steaming across the Mediterranean toward the Middle East.<\/p>\n

The newspaper was able to confirm that it was the de Gaulle by cross-referencing the geo-location data with recent satellite imagery, which revealed the carrier’s silhouette.Jalopnik<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Unknowingly posting targeting info?\u00a0 Somehow I think his promotion path just changed arcs. At least I sure hope so.<\/p>\n

We’ve mentioned the Soros-bought<\/del> supported Travis County (Austin, TX) District Attorney Jose Garza multiple times before. Not charging violent criminals, charging folks who had clear cases of self-defense, amongst other things.\u00a0 In the case of Austin Police Department officer Chance Bretches, who was charged after using department-issued<\/em> beanbag rounds during St. Fentanyl<\/del> Floyd riots in 2020.<\/p>\n

Bretches is facing charges of aggravated assault by a public servant after being deployed as part of a crowd-control response during the 2020 riot, where officers worked to disperse demonstrators and restore order in downtown Austin. His attorneys argue he relied on department-issued “less-lethal” beanbag rounds that were later called into question, contending the equipment itself was defective and contributed to the injuries at issue.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Seems Garza had unreported meetings (which, as a DA, he is perfectly legal to do) but concealed exculpatory evidence<\/p>\n

The alleged “secret meetings” with Austin officials about the city being responsible for the defective beanbag rounds that caused more harm than they were designed for, Bretches\u2019s attorney says, were something the prosecution was\u00a0<\/i>“required to give us” because it showed the belief and possibility the city had “criminal culpability” in the case.<\/p>\n

“Prosecutors can hold meetings with anybody, there\u2019s nothing illegal about that,” Bretches\u2019 attorney Doug O\u2019Connell told Fox News Digital. “The problem in this case is the district attorney felt he had enough evidence to indict the city as a corporate entity, which would make the city an alternative suspect or an unindicted co-defendant.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Without telling Bretches’ lawyer that, he had no opportunity to pull the city in as a co-defendant.<\/p>\n

The Michael Morton Act, a Texas law enacted after a wrongful conviction case, requires prosecutors to turn over most evidence in their possession to the defense, including information that could be favorable to the accused.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Connell says that the law mandates that “exculpatory mitigating evidence” must be given to the defense.<\/p>\n

After winning an election following a campaign, backed by liberal megadonor George Soros, that pledged to prosecute police officers, Garza indicted over 20 police officers, including\u00a0Bretches, for their role in quelling the Black Lives Matter riot. Garza has attempted to prosecute multiple other officers on deadly force-related charges with only one successful conviction that was later overturned.<\/p>\n

Two of the most recognized police organizations in the area, Combined Law Enforcement Associations of Texas (CLEAT) and the Austin Police Retired Officers Association (APROA), reacted to the motion by calling on Garza, who has long been accused of harboring animosity toward police, to resign from his role as the county\u2019s top prosecutor.\u00a0\u00a0Fox News<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, Garza needs to go away.<\/p>\n

And in a world gone mad – a father in Iceland has lost custody of his autistic 11-year old son… whose mother says is “transgender” and wants to start on puberty-blockers and hormones.<\/p>\n

Alexandre Rocha, a French national who has lived in Iceland for 25 years, lost custody to the child\u2019s mother in December and told Fox News Digital he believes the judge ruled against him because he questioned the long-term impacts of puberty blockers and hormone therapies.<\/p>\n

Despite his child being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder just eight months ago, Rocha said the court and medical professionals “slightly passed over” the diagnosis during the trial.<\/p>\n

He noted that children on the autism spectrum often struggle with feeling “right in their skin” or “wanting to be something else,” adding that his child sometimes prefers to be a cat \u2014 wearing a tail or cat ears.<\/p>\n

Rocha said he was notified in February that the child\u2019s mother formally changed his son\u2019s name to a female name, “meaning his ID will now clearly state he is a girl.”<\/p>\n

The father said he believes the court’s ruling was not about his child\u2019s welfare, but rather a coordinated effort to silence dissent.Fox News II<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Elon Musk is taking an interest, so maybe some financial help is forthcoming. But for now, it looks like the court is against the father. SMDH…<\/p>\n
