Scientists Invent Giant Dishwashing Machine for Entire Human Bodies3 Dividend Stocks to Double Up on Right Now - The Motley Fool Canada

The recent leak of videos from Andrew Tate’s exclusive “The War Room” group marks another escalation in a series of damaging cybersecurity breaches targeting the controversial figure. These videos, obtained by hackers, reveal tactics promoted by Tate and his associates to manipulate and control women, providing a rare look into the inner workings of his $8,000 a year subscription network. The War Room content, as reported by The Daily Dot , showcases 75 videos of members partaking in exclusive activities, such as luxury dining, resort stays and private lectures led by Tate himself. These revelations come on the heels of last month’s high-profile breach of The Real World, Tate’s online university, which exposed the personal data of nearly 800,000 users. In November, I reported on how The Real World fell victim to hackers who identified themselves as hacktivists. These attackers infiltrated the platform’s databases, accessing usernames, email addresses and private chat logs. Calling the platform’s security “hilariously insecure,” the hackers framed their actions as ideologically driven, aimed at challenging Tate’s controversial teachings and highlighting the lack of safeguards for user data. An Inside Look At Andrew Tate’s The War Room Following the recent breach of Andrew Tate's online platforms, hackers have leaked videos from his exclusive group, The War Room. These videos unveil strategies taught by Tate and his associates to manipulate and control women, shedding light on the controversial methods promoted within his inner circle. In one of the leaked videos, Tate, accompanied by adult film star Stirling Cooper and self-described "alpha mentor" Justin Waller , instructs men on how to isolate women from their social circles to exert control. Tate emphasizes the importance of keeping women away from friends and family who might influence them to leave, stating, "It's in your best interest to keep her away from that social circle." Waller contributes by suggesting that women who resist manipulation should be demoted in their relationship status, referring to them as the "bottom hoe." Tate rationalizes these tactics by asserting, "People will call it manipulation. But what you're really doing is putting the pieces on the chess board in the best place for you to win." Another segment reveals Tate advising against women having traditional jobs, arguing that employment provides them with a support network and exposes them to other men. He claims that women's mental energy should be dedicated solely to their partner, implying that external engagements dilute their focus. The War Room leak builds on the earlier breach, expanding the scope of exposure from user data to internal content. For Tate’s platforms, the consequences extend beyond reputational damage. These breaches expose not just the personal information of users but also the inner workings of his high-ticket programs , causing many to raise ethical and legal questions about the practices promoted within. As Tate faces mounting scrutiny, these incidents highlight the critical importance of robust cybersecurity measures to protect sensitive data and maintain trust in digital services. A request for comment from Andrew Tate’s The Real World has been made, but a response has yet to be provided.

JAMES MADISON 71, JACKSONVILLE STATE 65The year is drawing to a close, and what a year it has been for the stock market. As of this writing, the S&P 500 , Nasdaq Composite , and Dow Jones Industrial Average are up 26%, 28%, and 19%, respectively. That said, there are many growth stocks that have far outpaced the benchmark indexes and could be worth considering for the long term. Here are three investors should know about. 1. Spotify Technology First up is streaming giant Spotify ( SPOT 1.84% ) . The company, which operates the most popular music-streaming app in the world, continues to impress markets with its growth. In its most recent quarter (the three months ending on Sept. 30), Spotify reported 640 million monthly active users (MAUs), up 11% from 574 million MAUs one year ago. In addition, the company's number of paid subscribers jumped 12% to 252 million. Arguably, paid subscribers are an even more important figure to Spotify, as subscription fees account for 88% of the company's total revenue . At the same time as the company has ramped up its conversion of overall MAUs into paid subscribers, management has also cut costs. Accordingly, Spotify's profitability has soared. The company reported operating income of 454 million euros, compared to only 32 million euros one year earlier. In summary, Spotify is giving growth-oriented investors what they want to see. The company's user base, revenue, and profits are all expanding, as Spotify continues to tap into new markets and grow its subscriber count. That's a recipe for continued success, which is why investors should consider it as a long-term buy and hold stock. 2. Reddit Next, there's Reddit ( RDDT 2.94% ) . Reddit only debuted via an initial public offering (IPO) less than a year ago. Yet, as of this writing, the stock is up a remarkable 180%. It's all thanks to Reddit's big three financial metrics: Robust revenue growth Strong user growth Sky-high gross margin Starting with revenue, Reddit has grown its quarterly revenue (for the three months ending on Sept. 30) to $348 million -- an increase of 68% year over year. Similarly, the company's daily active uniques (DAUqs) rose 47% to 97 million. That's rapid growth, and, best of all, the company is capitalizing on the growth by increasing its profitability . Gross profit margin increased to 90% in its most recent quarter -- the best ever for the company, and more than 200 basis points higher than the same period one year ago. Granted, Reddit remains a newcomer to the stock market, but its first year as a public company has been remarkable. Growth-seeking investors may want to consider this highflier as a long-term buy-and-hold candidate, given its solid growth and its potential for high profitability further down the road. 3. Nvidia Last, there's Nvidia ( NVDA 3.48% ) . Clearly, Nvidia has enjoyed a good run; it's already the world's second-largest company (as of this writing), with a market cap of $3.3 trillion. That said, there are reasons to believe Nvidia's stock can still go higher. First , consider the company's most recent earnings report (for the three months ending on Oct. 27). Nvidia reported truly amazing numbers; revenue surged 94% year over year to $35 billion. Bear in mind , that's $35 billion in quarterly revenue -- but it's roughly equivalent to the annual revenue for iconic companies like Visa , Netflix , and Starbucks . What's more, Nvidia's sales have surged to these incredible heights in just a couple of years. For example, in the same period two years ago, Nvidia reported revenue of less than $6 billion. In other words, the demand-side growth for artificial intelligence (AI) chips has been staggering. Moreover, it's not expected to end anytime soon . In addition to the fantastic results that Nvidia reported , company leadership also provided guidance that was above expectations. In short, management expects future sales of the company's Blackwell AI chips to be even stronger than previously forecast. To close, Nvidia's prominent role in the AI ecosystem make it a compelling choice for investors who are seeking a buy-and-hold stock in the AI sector.

ABC projects that Democrat Adam Gray will win the race for California's 13th Congressional District , unseating incumbent Republican John Duarte and flipping the final unresolved seat in the 2024 election. With all 435 House races projected, ABC News estimates Republicans will hold 220 seats and Democrats 215 in the 119th Congress. But it's not clear how vacancies -- or, illness or other absences -- will impact the day-to-day division of power when the House convenes on Jan. 3. President-elect Donald Trump initially tapped three House Republicans for positions in his upcoming administration: Florida Reps. Matt Gaetz and Mike Waltz, and New York Rep. Elise Stefanik. Gaetz has already resigned from Congress and withdrew last month from consideration to serve as President-elect Donald Trump's attorney general. And though he won reelection to his seat last month, he said he won't serve another term. MORE | Democrat Adam Gray projected to win California's 13th Congressional District Republicans could have a 217-215 majority while their seats are vacant -- the narrowest GOP majority in history -- and special elections to fill those seats can take months to complete. In this case, any single Republican can hold Johnson hostage: Losing just one Republican on a vote would result in a 216-216 tie. The speaker acknowledged the thin majority, which could pose a challenge in passing Trump's agenda. "Well, just like we do every day here, we've developed an expertise in that. We know how to work with a small majority. That's our custom now," Johnson said. "So, yes -- do the math. We can, we have nothing to spare. But all of our members know that we talked about that today, as we do constantly, that this is a team effort that we've got to all row in the same direction." But several elderly Democrats have missed votes recently, which could give Republicans a little more breathing room next year. In California's 13th District, Duarte conceded to Gray on Tuesday, according to the Turlock Journal. "I'm a citizen legislator, and I didn't plan on being in Congress forever," Duarte told the newspaper. "But whenever I think I can make a difference, I'll consider public service in different forms, including running for Congress again." Gray released a victory statement on X Tuesday evening, extending his gratitude and saying the "final results confirm this district is ready for independent and accountable leadership that always puts the Valley's people ahead of partisan politics." ABC News' Marilyn Heck and Benjamin Siegel contributed to this report.AP Trending SummaryBrief at 3:45 p.m. EST

Trump said Atkins, the CEO of Patomak Partners and a former SEC commissioner, was a “proven leader for common sense regulations.” In the years since leaving the SEC, Atkins has made the case against too much market regulation. “He believes in the promise of robust, innovative capital markets that are responsive to the needs of Investors, & that provide capital to make our Economy the best in the World. He also recognizes that digital assets & other innovations are crucial to Making America Greater than Ever Before,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. The commission oversees U.S. securities markets and investments and is currently led by Gary Gensler, who has been leading the U.S. government’s crackdown on the crypto industry. Gensler, who was nominated by President Joe Biden, announced last month that he would be stepping down from his post on the day that Trump is inaugurated — Jan. 20, 2025. Trump, once a crypto skeptic, had pledged to make the U.S. “the crypto capital of the planet” and create a “strategic reserve” of bitcoin. Money has poured into crypto assets since he won . Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency, is now above $95,000. And shares in crypto platform Coinbase have surged more than 70% since the election. Paul Grewal, chief legal officer of Coinbase, congratulated Atkins in a post on X. “We appreciate his commitment to balance in regulating U.S. securities markets and look forward to his fresh leadership at (the SEC),” Grewal wrote. “It’s sorely needed and cannot come a day too soon.” Congressman Brad Sherman, a California Democrat and a senior member of the House Financial Services Committee, said he worries Atkins would not sufficiently regulate cryptocurrencies as SEC chair. “He’d probably take the position that no cryptocurrency currency is a security, and hence no exchange that deals with crypto is a securities exchange,” Sherman said. “The opportunity to defraud investors would be there in a very significant way.” Atkins began his career as a lawyer and has a long history working in the financial markets sector, both in government and private practice. In the 1990s, he worked on the staffs of two former SEC chairmen, Richard C. Breeden and Arthur Levitt. His work as an SEC commissioner started in 2002, a time when the fallout from corporate scandals at Enron and WorldCom had turned up the heat on Wall Street and its government regulators. Atkins was widely considered the most conservative member of the SEC during his tenure at the agency and known to have a strong free-market bent. As a commissioner, he called for greater transparency in and analysis of the costs and benefits of new SEC rules. He also emphasized investor education and increased enforcement efforts against those who steal from investors over the internet, manipulate markets, engage in Ponzi schemes and other types of fraud. At the same time, Atkins objected to stiff penalties imposed on companies accused of fraudulent conduct, contending that they did not deter crime. He caused a stir in the summer of 2006 when he said the practice of granting stock options to executives before the disclosure of news that was certain to increase the share price did not constitute insider trading. U.S. Rep. Patrick McHenry, a North Carolina Republican and chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, said Atkins has the experience needed to “restore faith in the SEC.” “I’m confident his leadership will lead to clarity for the digital asset ecosystem and ensure U.S. capital markets remain the envy of the world,” McHenry posted on X. Atkins already has some experience working for Trump. During Trump's first term, Atkins was a member of the President’s Strategic and Policy Forum , an advisory group of more than a dozen CEOs and business leaders who offered input on how to create jobs and speed economic growth. In 2017, Atkins joined the Token Alliance, a cryptocurrency advocacy organization. Crypto industry players welcomed Trump’s victory in the hopes that he would push through legislative and regulatory changes that they’ve long lobbied for. Trump himself has launched World Liberty Financial, a new venture with family members to trade cryptocurrencies. Best trending stories from the week. Success!
