South Park aims at the federal takeover of DC police in latest episode
The episode titled, Sickofancy, showed Towlie teamed up with Randy Marsh to start a new weed and tech company called Techridy, using ChatGPT and small doses of ketamine. Thus, Towlie reached Washington, DC, to grow their business and ask Trump to legalize marijuana.
The walking, talking towel was then seen, riding a bus, going past landmarks like the Supreme Court building and the Capitol, as the armed troops march on the street and a tank strolls across the White House. Eventually, Towlie ended up in the Oval Office. As a bribe, Randy offers Towlie to Trumo, who, in a shocking twist, used the towel as a post-sex cleanup rug, as reported by Variety.

Mark Zuckerberg and Tim Cook's cameo in latest episode
The Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Apple CEO Tim Cook also make cameos in a long line of politicians in the latest episode of South Park. There were also representatives from Florida and Qatar, all assuring Trump that he does not have small genitals as they hand him a gift.
The half-hour episode also reunited Satan and Trump in bed, where the latter asked to have intercourse and use the Apple gift as a sex toy.
Season 27 of Trey Parker and Matt Stone's animated series has become the most popular in years. Episode 2, which caused a stir by featuring Kristi Noem shooting a puppy, drew a huge audience. It averaged 6.2 million viewers across platforms worldwide within just the first three days of its release.
However, the episode was slammed by Noem for her portrayal as "so lazy' and 'petty.' On Glenn Beck's radio show, she said, 'It's always the liberals and the extremists who do that. If they wanted to criticize my job, go ahead and do that, but clearly they can't, they just pick something petty like that,' as reported by Variety.

USAID didn't give $21 million for poll turnout: US embassy to Centre
Representative image NEW DELHI: USAID did not provide funding of $21 million for voter turnout in India between 2014 and 2024, the US embassy has informed the Indian govt, according to a reply by ministry of external affairs in response to a Parliament question. US President Donald Trump had earlier questioned the alleged funding, saying he suspected "they were trying to get someone else elected". MoS for external affairs Kirti Vardhan Singh said that on July 2, 2025, the US embassy shared data that, it said, covered USAID funding in India from 2014 to 2024, including details of implementing partners, objectives and key accomplishments of each activity undertaken. "The embassy also maintains that USAID/India did not receive or provide funding of $21 million for voter turnout in India from fiscal years 2014 to 2024, nor has it implemented any voter turnout-related activities in India," said the minister, in response to a written query in Rajya Sabha. "On July 29, 2025, the US embassy conveyed to MEA that it plans to bring all USAID operations to a close by Aug 15, 2025," he added. The MEA had earlier requested the embassy to urgently furnish details of expenditure incurred on all USAID-assisted/funded projects in India over the last 10 years (other than those being implemented under the seven partnership agreements with Indian govt). MEA also sought a list of NGOs/implementing partners through which such initiatives were executed. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Many Filipinos don't know about this!

"Why do we need to spend $21 million on voter turnout in India? I guess they were trying to get somebody else elected. We have got to tell the Indian govt... Because when we hear that Russia spent about $2,000 in our country, it was a big deal. They took some internet ads for $2,000. This is a total breakthrough," Trump had alleged.

'Virtual Gang Rape': Italian Facebook Group Sharing Women's Intimate Images Sparks Outrage
Last Updated: Earlier this year, Meta faced criticism for relaxing some of its content moderation policies, a move aimed at appeasing the Trump administration. A Facebook group has triggered nationwide outrage in Italy after it was discovered sharing intimate images of women without their consent. The page, titled 'Mia Moglie" (My Wife), had amassed more than 32,000 members, according to The Financial Times. The Meta-owned platform has since shut the group down following public outcry over its exploitative content. According to reports, members of the group had been posting explicit photos of their partners, or impersonating women by sharing fabricated intimate images, without obtaining consent. The group had been active since 2019, but Meta told The Financial Times that it remained dormant until May 2025. In the last three months, however, it began hosting explicit content, directly violating Meta's policies on adult sexual exploitation. A Meta spokesperson confirmed on Wednesday that the group was removed for 'violating our Adult Sexual Exploitation policies." Earlier this year, Meta faced criticism for relaxing some of its content moderation policies, a move aimed at appeasing the Trump administration. The decision was made despite repeated calls from civil rights organisations to increase oversight of harmful and exploitative online content. The controversy surrounding the Mia Moglie group has sparked widespread anger across Italy, raising serious concerns about digital gender-based violence and online privacy. It also comes amid growing criticism of how social media platforms handle abusive content, particularly that which targets women. Beyond the digital realm, the incident has intensified focus on gender dynamics in Italian society. According to Vox, the scandal highlights the prevalence of misogyny online, particularly hate directed at women's appearances. In response, opposition lawmakers have increased pressure on the right-wing government led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to take stronger action. The Five Star Movement condemned the incident and called on the government to fight 'an unacceptable patriarchal mentality that reduces women to objects and instruments of possession." Similarly, Roberta Mori from the Democratic Party called the Facebook group 'another example of structural digital violence rooted in the same patriarchal culture of domination." The scandal also resurfaced public memory of the French case of Gisèle Pelicot, who was raped for years by her husband and his male friends, illustrating disturbing parallels in digital and physical abuse. Feminist influencer Carolina Capria helped bring attention to the issue by publicly denouncing the group in a viral Instagram post on Tuesday. Capria told The Financial Times that such actions amounted to 'virtual gang rape." Her post prompted thousands of users to report the group to authorities. Italy's Postal Police, the national cybercrime unit, received around 2,800 complaints, some from alleged victims themselves. Authorities are now investigating potential criminal offences, including revenge porn, privacy violations, aggravated defamation, and child pornography. If convicted, perpetrators could face up to six years in prison. The Italian law allows individuals affected by revenge porn a period of six months to file formal charges.
