The first teaser, shared on social media, depicts “live” footage of a group vandalising Mount Rushmore, draping banners over the sculptures with the words “The Truth Lies.” The second teaser shows the same group putting up posters with the same message. Both teasers are part of a larger promotional website, thetruthlies.com, which features a TV with six different “channels.” Currently, only two channels are active, with the others likely to showcase additional teaser content.

Alongside these official reveals, a blurred image, believed to be an obscured version of the game’s cover art, has been circulating online. Despite the blur, the image hints at a connection to the original Call of Duty: Black Ops title.

IGN reports that Microsoft is expected to announce the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 directly into the Game Pass service during its June Xbox showcase. Additionally, the entire Call of Duty back catalog will reportedly be available on Game Pass before the new game drops. Although unconfirmed by Microsoft, this aligns with comments from Xbox president Sarah Bond about all Microsoft-developed games being available on Game Pass from launch day.

More details are anticipated to be revealed on thetruthlies.com and during the Xbox showcase on June 9.

MEP Candidate Thomas Bajada Delivers Message in Gozitan Dialect

May 23 2024

In a recent campaign video, Labour Party MEP Candidate Thomas Bajada delivered a poignant message in a Gozitan dialect, as he and his fellow candidates set their sights on the June 8th election date.

In the 3-minute video, Bajada addresses followers of his page with the sentiment that it has been a long time that youth have given up on politics, and for good reason. The Gozitan candidate said politics has become like football, “where everyone is marked with the colours of their kit.”

Pledging to put an end to tribalism in politics in an attempt to once again connect with the youth, Bajada stated that the key to bring young people back to politics is to have someone who says things as they are. “Authentic politics do no start when you switch on the camera and microphone. Real authenticity is when you speak from the heart, the way you feel it, and you show it with you actions.”

During his speech, Bajada goes on to recall the fact that he crossed the channel from Malta to Gozo more than he crossed the street of his house, leaving home to work in Brussels and represent Malta whilst maintaining Maltese culture and heritage. “It would be a shame if we discard our identity”, he stated.

What do you think of Thomas Bajada’s message?

In the video, Cassola brings together a diverse group of supporters, including authors, lecturers, economists, writers, the elderly, and the youth. The video carries the message “Now’s the Chance” to vote for Cassola, highlighting the urgency and importance in voting for the independent in this year’s MEP election.

The campaign video features several well-known Maltese figures from various fields. Respected author and lecturer Immanuel Mifsud, economist Marie Briguglio, Djun frontman Just Galea, journalist Sasha Vella, lecturer Claire Azzopardi Lane, artist Joanna Borg Barther, and young broadcaster Mirko Sant are among those who express their support for Cassola’s vision.

Throughout his political campaign, Arnold Cassola has promised to revitalise the political environment in Malta. He aims to realign governance and the rule of law, and to adjust Malta’s economic model to benefit the people rather than big businesses.

Throughout his tenure, Cassola has also been a vocal critic of Malta’s two-party system, which he believes has dominated the political landscape for too long. His campaign seeks to offer a fresh perspective and new opportunities for Maltese voters.
