And yet we're supposed to believe they were an imminent threat to us?

Bluesky CEO Jay Graber Is Stepping Down Venture capitalist Toni Schneider will take over as interim CEO as Bluesky’s board of directors hunts for a permanent replacement.

Exclusive: Jay Graber is stepping down as head of Bluesky. Venture capitalist Toni Schneider will be the interim CEO until a permanent replacement is found.

I suspect many persons in Trinidad and Tobago are aligned to conservative and far right wing ideologies for a long time now and are ok with “the superpower bent on..” that rabidly promotes “their” ideals - “the ends justify the means”

Lucky you on winning a CD ! Indeed, i remember when it was the top 100 and took 5 hours. Always a reassuring, distinctive voice. Best wishes, life and joy in his retirement

Well said. I’m surprised by persons saying the the SOE regulations are now restrictive in terms of speech and detention by police officers etc, like was no one ever reading the past SOE restrictions ?

I can even go back to 1995 when Patrick Manning infamously declared a (limited) State of Emergency in order to place the Speaker of the House under house arrest. Regulations 4 & 8(1) of the 1995 Emergency Powers Regulations are also familiar

Legal Notice 114 of 1995: www.laws.gov.tt/ttdll-web/re...

the emergency powers regulations have also been published:

STATEMENT BY THE HONOURABLE KAMLA-PERSAD BISSESSAR S.C. PRIME MINISTER OF TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO ON THE DECLARATION OF A STATE OF EMERGENCY EFFECTIVE TUESDAY, 3RD MARCH, 2026. The National Security Council (NS) met at the Diplomatic Centre on Monday, March 2nd, 2026, and received security briefings from the Commissioner of Police, Allister Guevarro, the Chief of Defence Staff, Don Polo, and the Head of the Strategic Services Agency (SSA), Alicia Henry. The NSC noted that, following the end of the previous state of emergency on January 31st, 2026, there has been an increase in violent criminal activity across the country, most of which has been carried out by members of organized criminal gangs. The NSC further noted that several of these acts of criminality have resulted in multiple deaths due to mass shootings and that the continuance of reprisal shootings amongst criminal gangs, if left unchecked, would endanger public safety. The NSC was informed that intelligence recently gathered indicates credible threats to attack Police Officers, Prison Officers and other members of the security and legal services. I had previously warned the criminal gangs and detainees released from prison that decent law-abiding citizens are fed up with their criminality, and if they cannot behave themselves, I would have no hesitation in having another SoE declared. I also indicated that violent gang members would be returned straight to prison, and this time, their friends and family who aid their criminality would accompany them. I reiterate my words that if criminals want to terrorize law- (Continued on next page)

abiding citizens and their families, I will do everything legally possible to terrorize criminals and those who aid and abet them. In light of the foregoing and in all the circumstances, the NSC resolved to immediately advise Her Excellency the President to declare that a State of Public Emergency exists in Trinidad and Tobago with effect from the 3rd of March 2026. On the 2nd of March 2026, Her Excellency declared so. This measure is consistent with your Government's zero-tolerance approach to crime and criminal gangs, as demonstrated by numerous successful, strategic operations conducted by the TTPS and the Armed Forces over the last 10 months, legislation introduced in Parliament to empower and protect law-abiding citizens, and ongoing reforms to the criminal justice system. Your government will continue to utilize all available resources to ensure that the gains we have achieved in significantly reducing the murder rates and the incidents of violent crime against citizens are not reversed and overturned by those who are determined to inflict death, hardship and torment upon our people. ### TUESDAY 3RD MARCH 2026

notice how after ilhan omar was attacked by a maga true believer parroting donald trump, the mainstream media didnt kick off a multi-day orgy about how trump and other republicans need to change their tone and "lower the temperature"?

that discourse only goes one way for the msm.

Indeed. Would everything completely fall apart with the end of the SOE ? And if it was “critical” to have something in place before the SOE ends and the date of the SOE ending was a fixed date, it falls to the Government to introduce the bill with enough time for amendments to be considered

It’s disappointing that so many are content with X given the owner’s behaviours

Unfortunately several TT politicans (including the opposition ) and various TT ministries are on X

Soca Deepfakes: AI, Deception, and Performer Rights in Trinidad and Tobago A new Carnival anthem drops online a few weeks before the season. The voice sounds exactly like one of Trinidad and Tobago’s leading soca artists: the phrasing, the tone, even the signature ad-libs.

“The voice sounds exactly like one of Trinidad and Tobago’s leading soca artists: the phrasing, the tone, even the signature ad-libs. Promoters start using the track in their ads, DJs spin it at fetes, and it gains momentum”

The truth: the artist never recorded it
