Joshua Wong, once a prominent figure in Hong Kong’s pro-democracy movements, now faces an additional prison term after his second conviction under a Beijing-imposed national security law on Sept. 2.
Wong, 29, pleaded guilty to a charge of foreign collusion before William Tam, a Hong Kong government-appointed judge overseeing national security cases, during a hearing at Hong Kong’s High Court, according to local media publication The Witness.
He will receive a sentence on a future date.
The charge—“conspiracy to collude with a foreign or external force to endanger national security”—carries a minimum prison term of three years.
If the offense is considered grave in nature, the maximum penalty is life imprisonment.

Bessent to Newsmax: Economic Squeeze Could Bring Down Iran Regime
VIDEO
By Newsmax Wires | Wednesday, 02 September 2026 08:06 AM EDT
The Trump administration has begun a worldwide campaign to sever Iran's remaining economic ties, and banks and other companies helping Tehran evade sanctions will be cut off from the U.S. financial system as Washington intensifies pressure on the Iranian government, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent tells Newsmax.
"We are telling the friends and foes that this is the end of the regime," Bessent said in an interview with Newsmax's "Rob Schmitt Tonight" from the G20 economic summit in Asheville, North Carolina.
Editor’s Note: Severe Weather Expected to Continue . . . Prepare Now!
"We are going to sever all of their economic ties with the outside world," he added.
Bessent said Treasury, the State Department, and other administration teams have spread out across the world to press allies and adversaries to stop financial and commercial dealings that sustain Tehran.

Apple Maps follows Google in adopting Trump’s ‘Lake America’ rebrand
By Claire Carter
Published September 1, 2026 6:30pm ET | Updated September 1, 2026 6:30pm ET
VIDEO
Apple Maps on Tuesday followed its competitor’s lead in altering its map to reflect President Donald Trump’s renaming of Lake Ontario to “Lake America.”
Trump signed an executive order last week renaming Lake Ontario, which lies in both the United States and Canada, to “Lake America.” Google changed its maps over the weekend, and like with previous changes, Apple followed suit days later.
Apple Maps now shows “Lake America” on the U.S. half of the lake. The name “Lake Ontario” had hovered above Canada’s side of the border.

Canada ‘foolish’ to get into trade war with Trump, says Duffy
By David Zimmermann
Published August 23, 2026 11:12am ET | Updated August 23, 2026 8:26pm ET
VIDEO
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy fired back at Canada on live television Sunday morning after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced “dollar-for-dollar” retaliatory tariffs in response to the new 50% U.S. tariffs.
Speaking on Fox News Sunday, Duffy said it was “foolish” for Canada to start a trade war with the United States, in part, because America’s northern neighbor “doesn’t have a military.”
Canada does have a military, though it is much smaller than the U.S. military. “We’re great trading partners … but Canada gets the benefit of trading with the U.S. way more than the U.S. gets the benefit of trading with Canada,” Duffy said.

US strikes Iran for second time in two days in battle for Strait of Hormuz
By Ronny Reyes
Published Sep. 1, 2026 | Updated Sep. 1, 2026, 1:53 p.m. ET
VIDEO
The US unleashed a fresh wave of strikes on Iran, its second in two days, in response to the regime’s attacks across the region, President Trump said, adding that peace negotiations were off the table.
“The strikes are large and powerful, and in retaliation for the Iranians’ failed attempt at adding sea mines to the Strait, which currently has no mines (They have been completely removed or detonated!), and the Iranians shooting eight missiles, all successfully knocked down, at our Military Base in Jordan,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“If the failed Nation of Iran retaliates for this very justified attack, they will be hit again at a much harder and higher level, but it will not be the biggest attack of them all, that is waiting in the wings and, when it is over, there will be very little left of the Islamic Republic of Iran!” he warned.
The president went on to slam Iran as “crazy” and “stupid” for their repeated attacks, adding that Iran’s latest call for peace negotiations would go nowhere.

Chinese Regime’s Economic Optimism Collides With Growing Public Pessimism
Weakening investment, a prolonged property crisis, and job losses are fueling frustration despite Beijing’s efforts to project economic confidence.

As Beijing continues to portray China’s economy as resilient amid weakening economic data, critics who spoke to The Epoch Times are expressing a different view, saying that jobs are disappearing, businesses are struggling, housing values are falling, and the system’s future looks increasingly uncertain.
The contrast has become particularly visible since mid-August, when Beijing began releasing economic data for the first seven months of 2026. While regime officials highlighted strong exports and growth in high-tech industries, most major indicators weakened.
Fixed-asset investment fell 6.7 percent year over year—a larger decline than in the first half of the year and worse than the forecast 6.2 percent. Real estate development investment fell 19.2 percent, while private investment declined 9.4 percent.

Dr. Anthony Fauci said an aide should delete an email about risky research his agency was funding, according to documents released on Aug. 29 by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).
“Please delete this e-mail and then delete from the deleted file,” Fauci told Dr. Clifford Lane, a senior official at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), in a missive on March 4, 2012.
Fauci, NIAID’s director at the time, was commenting on an op-ed that criticized risky research that created a more transmissible H5N1 influenza virus. The research, led by European scientist Ron Fouchier, was funded by the NIAID.
The op-ed said the virus appeared to spread easily and would be lethal to humans if it escaped confinement or was stolen by terrorists. It highlighted the ...

ASHEVILLE, N.C.—U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says that growth and deregulation policies are effective, while socialist policies are not, pointing to countries across the Western Hemisphere where voters have ousted socialist governments in recent elections.
“We’ve seen some great examples. I think we have a generational opportunity in the Western Hemisphere,” Bessent said on Tuesday during a fireside chat event with Larry Kudlow, former director of the National Economic Council, at the G20 summit in Asheville.
Bessent praised changes in countries across the Western Hemisphere in recent years, including Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile, and Ecuador.
He made these remarks on the sidelines of the G20 summit for finance ministers and central bank governors on its second and final day.
Bessent also commented on the rising number of progressive and self-described socialist candidates in Democratic primaries.

A majority of Americans now consider themselves members of the "working class," a label that cuts broadly across traditional lines of income, education, and occupation, according to new Pew Research Center polling published this week.
Among U.S. adults, 60% say "working class" describes them extremely or very well, up from 54% in 2024.
While the identification is strongest among Americans without four-year college degrees and those with middle incomes, half of college graduates and half of upper-income Americans also embrace the label.
The findings underscore just how expansive, and politically valuable, the working class has become as both Republicans and Democrats compete to portray themselves as its champion heading into the November midterm elections.
Pew found a distinct partisan divide, 67% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents identify as working class, compared with 55% of Democrats and democratic leaners.

What Are the Stakes for Canada After Trump’s US-Venezuela 65 Billion Barrel Oil Deal?

U.S.President Donald Trump announced on Aug. 28 that the United States had reached what he called “the biggest oil deal in world history,” giving the United States majority control over the development of more than 65 billion barrels of Venezuela’s proven heavy crude reserves.
While oil-rich Venezuela remains significantly behind Canada in oil production after years of infrastructure neglect and political isolation, experts say the country’s potential return to the global oil market could increase pressure on Canada from its neighbour to the south and largest energy export customer.
Venezuelan interim President Delcy Rodríguez has said the deal will last 25 years, cover 17 oilfields, and target production of more than 1.5 million barrels per day.
