Macron and Erdogan (these two, at least) had to walk the streets to UN, after getting stuck in the traffic. – Google Search  google.com/search?q=Macron+a…
Yes, both French President Emmanuel Macron and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had to walk through the streets of New York in September 2025 after their vehicles were halted by traffic related to the UN General Assembly. The cause of the delays was U.S. President Donald Trump’s motorcade, which was moving through the city. [1, 2, 3]
Details of the incidents:

Emmanuel Macron: On September 23, 2025, police closed off a street near the French diplomatic mission for Trump’s motorcade, stopping Macron’s car. Instead of waiting, Macron got out and called Trump to joke about the delay, which was captured in a video that went viral. He then proceeded to walk for about 30 minutes, taking photos with onlookers and continuing his call with Trump to discuss international issues.
Recep Tayyip Erdoğan: The following day, on September 24, Erdoğan’s delegation was similarly stopped at a crosswalk. A video showed the Turkish president waiting to cross the street because of the security closure for Trump’s passage. Erdoğan was later seen walking from the Turkish House to the UN headquarters to attend the General Assembly. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

It is almost two years since the publication of this article, and the progress in this area continues to be enormous, and not always publicized.
Killer mini-drones as the tools of the political assassinations – this should be the FBI focus (not focus-pocus).

Was it the message from Mossad, in the light of the mysteries of Kirk (and others) assassinations with the special weapons, possibly killer mini-drones?
“You are exposed and vulnerable, and you can be eliminated at any time feasible”.

The FBI and the censorship of the Social Media
AI Overview – GS
Ongoing controversy surrounds the FBI’s interaction with social media companies, particularly regarding alleged government-induced censorship and the suppression of free speech. While the Supreme Court has set limits, the relationship remains a subject of legal and political debate. The FBI says it provides information on foreign influence campaigns to help platforms protect against election interference. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] 
Allegations of government overreach • Congressional inquiries: A House Judiciary Committee report alleged the FBI colluded with Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) to request the removal of thousands of social media accounts, including those of American citizens. A former Twitter executive testified that the FBI warned the platform about potential Russian disinformation before the New York Post published its story on Hunter Biden’s laptop, which led to its suppression on the platform.
• “Jawboning” accusations: Lawsuits allege that federal agencies, including the FBI and the White House, pressured social media companies to remove content by flagging posts as misinformation. Critics claim this practice, known as “jawboning,” amounts to unconstitutional government censorship by proxy, since it is difficult for companies to refuse a government request.
• Surveillance concerns: The ACLU has raised concerns that the FBI’s use of social media monitoring tools could have a “chilling effect” on protected speech. The FBI has stated it follows legal guidelines for surveillance. [2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11] 

FBI position and recent developments • Combating foreign influence: The FBI maintains that its partnerships with social media companies are crucial for combating foreign malign influence operations, in which hostile foreign governments use social media to spread disinformation and sow discord.
• Reestablished communication: After legal challenges led to a suspension of contact, the FBI reestablished communication with social media companies in early 2024, following new Department of Justice (DOJ) guidelines. The FBI stated that it now uses a standardized preface in all communications, assuring companies that it does not request or expect any specific action.
• Foreign threats: As of mid-2024, the FBI and DOJ have publicly announced successful efforts to disrupt foreign influence campaigns in coordination with tech companies. In one case, a tip from the FBI helped Meta remove a network of inauthentic accounts spreading Russian propaganda.
• Revised policies: A July 2024 report by the DOJ’s Inspector General found that the FBI lacked a comprehensive strategy for engaging with social media platforms and recommended the development of new guidance that acknowledges First Amendment implications. The DOJ agreed and has updated its procedures for sharing information. [5, 6, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16] 

Key legal rulings • Murthy v. Missouri (2024): The Supreme Court overturned a lower court’s injunction that had significantly restricted the Biden administration’s communications with social media platforms regarding content moderation. The Court ruled that the private plaintiffs who brought the case lacked standing to sue, and therefore did not directly address the First Amendment claims regarding “jawboning”. [1, 2, 17, 18, 19]

Worked with social media platforms: An MSNBC report from March 2025 revealed that Patel’s office had been working with social media companies behind the scenes to remove illegal content, such as material related to child trafficking. [3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
