(AFP) - Guinea's military-dominated government has banned four of the country's most popular private radio stations and one private television channel, according to a statement issued by the ministry of information Wednesday. The authorities said they withdrew the operating licenses of radio stations FIM FM, Radio Espace FM, Sweet FM and Djoma FM, as well as the television station Djoma TV, citing a "failure to comply with the content of specifications" without giving further details.

"This live feed by the AP is the only remaining live element from Gaza for many broadcasters worldwide. It is vital for coverage of this significant story. We call on Israel to reverse course on this overly aggressive action and restore the AP’s equipment and live feed.”- Emily Wilkins, president of the National Press Club https://www.press.org/newsroom/national-press-club-statement-israels-actions-against-associated-press

(AP) — A video posted to Donald Trump’s account on his social media network Monday included references to a “unified Reich” among hypothetical news headlines if he wins the election in November. https://apnews.com/article/31002afb91b642c0314223d19e51f427

"It is abhorrent, sickening and disgraceful for anyone to promote content associated with Germany's Nazi government under Adolf Hitler," Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre tells reporters on Air Force One about the Trump video that references a "unified reich" if he returns to the White House.

“Donald Trump posting a ‘unified Reich’ video is part of a pattern of his praise for dictators and echoing antisemitic tropes. He’s a threat to our democracy and Americans must reject him and stand up for our democracy this November.” - Biden-Harris 2024 Spokesperson James Singer

“This kind of rhetoric is unsurprising coming from the former president and it is appalling. And we've got to tell him who we are. And once again it shows that our freedom and our very democracy are at stake,” says Vice President Kamala Harris during a speech to SEIU members in Philadelphia.

At a fundraiser, Biden notes Trump’s campaign “posted online about if he wins it’ll be a unified Reich – like the third Reich. This is the same guy that uses Hitler’s language, not America’s. It's no surprise that when he, about four months ago, he talked about – I think maybe a little longer - that Hitler did some quote ‘some good things.’”
