Michael Erik Kurilla, commander, U.S. Central Command.show more

MORE TRAINING AREAS COMING TO VAL? The new Discord... mini-game mentions something called "Radiant Gymnasium" The thing is this: "This is seriously impressive! You can build a routine AND then play against it. I've sent the specs over to Brimstone. I think something like this at HQ would go a long way in training and preparing for missions. We could probably share some of our training routines with the academy as well." So, Sage's statement that she really liked this and that she'll talk to Brimstone about adding it to the main HQ is, in my opinion, a clear teaser.show more

The United States has shattered all diplomatic restraints, launching... a devastating airstrike directly inside sovereign Iranian territory to pulverize the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' inner sanctum. U.S. Air Force heavy bombers carried out a high-precision kinetic operation in the strategic city of Shiraz, located deep within Iran's Fars Province, completely leveling critical military facilities belonging to the IRGC. This unprecedented, direct penetration of Iranian airspace serves as Washington's definitive response to Tehran's recent ballistic missile barrages against American bases, taking out key command centers and missile infrastructure at the source. By striking the Iranian mainland, the U.S. has completely rewritten the rules of engagement and exposed the regime's total tactical vulnerability. This direct assault proves that the era of proxy containment is officially dead, leaving Tehran with a brutal reality check: further aggression against Western assets will result in the systematic, homeland destruction of the Islamic Republic's military apparatus.

Since last night, our emergency services have been working... at the sites of the Russian strikes. A wicked attack – as of now, we know of dozens of wounded, including children and a pregnant woman. Sadly, four people have been killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones. About 430 drones and 18 missiles were used in the strike, including ballistic and aeroballistic missiles. This was a deliberately calculated attack aimed at causing maximum harm to people and civilian infrastructure. In Kyiv alone, dozens of apartment buildings have been damaged. The Azerbaijani Embassy was hit by debris from an Iskander missile. The main target of the attack was Kyiv, and strikes also hit Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Odesa regions. According to preliminary data, the Russians used a Zircon missile in the Sumy region this morning. Minister of Internal Affairs Ihor Klymenko has already reported on the progress of rescue operations at the sites. I am grateful to everyone helping our people. Commander of the Air Force Anatolii Kryvonozhko also reported on the results of our air defense work. I thank our warriors for their effective actions. Ukraine is responding to these strikes with long-range strength, and the world must stop these attacks on life with sanctions. Russia is still able to sell oil and build its schemes. All of this must end. A great deal of work is underway with partners to strengthen our air defense, but it is not enough. We need reinforcement with additional systems and interceptor missiles. Europe and the United States can help. We are counting on real decisions. Thank you to everyone who helps.show more

We have grit and now we officially have GRIID.... 🤝 Today $CLSK announced the completed acquisition of GRIID Infrastructure Inc. (Nasdaq: GRDI)(“GRIID”) on October 30, 2024, following approval of the transaction by stockholders of GRIID at the special meeting of its stockholders on October 28, 2024. “I’m pleased to announce the completion of our acquisition of GRIID Infrastructure Inc., a strategic move that allows us to grow our Bitcoin mining capacity in the state of Tennessee, which we intend to build to over 400 MW in the coming years,” said CleanSpark CEO Zach Bradford. “Moreover, this adds significant geographic and power supply diversity through expansion in the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) service territory, providing us with additional operational flexibility.” “We look forward to smoothly integrating GRIID’s team into ‘The CleanSpark Way,’ merging their impressive workforce with our own. We’ve gotten to know GRIID’s employees well in the past three months as we have prepared for the merge and they have hosted 50 MW of mining capacity for us. The fit couldn’t be better, and we are collectively ready to hit the ground running with GRIID’s existing capacity, new development in TVA, and additional talent supporting our previously acquired sites in the state,” said Bradford. “I’m proud to welcome CleanSpark to Tennessee,” said U.S. Senator Bill Hagerty. The Volunteer State is a great place to grow a business and has rapidly developed into one of the centers of America’s Bitcoin industry. We boast a globally competitive workforce, a superior quality of life, and thanks to TVA, reliable and affordable power. We are excited to see CleanSpark grow and invest in Tennessee.” “The closing of the merger is a great outcome for GRIID’s shareholders and employees,” said GRIID's former CEO Trey Kelly. “It’s great to start the next chapter, and merging with CleanSpark is a tribute to the business we’ve built with some of the best Bitcoin mining professionals in the world. CleanSpark has already begun demonstrating their ability to accelerate and maximize the value of GRIID’s power pipeline, and I see tremendous upside for the combined company in the years to come.” Under the terms of the merger agreement originally announced on June 27, 2024, each share of GRIID common stock was converted into approximately 0.06959 of a share of CleanSpark common stock at the effective time of the merger. In connection with the closing of the transaction, GRIID has requested that Nasdaq suspend trading of the GRIID common stock and GRIID public warrants on Nasdaq prior to the opening of trading on October 31, 2024. The shares of GRIID common stock are expected to be delisted from Cboe Canada at the end of the day on October 31, 2024. Full press release here:show more

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 🇨🇳 BREAKING: IS CHINA BAITING US INTO... THE IRAN CONFLICT TO DEPLETE OUR MUNITIONS?! Follow the strategic dots. The U.S. has burned through 30-80% of critical munitions in four months against Iran. Tomahawks, THAAD interceptors, Patriots. A CSIS analysis warns it will take three to five years to restore those stockpiles. Meanwhile, China watches. China studies. China calculates. The timing matters. China hasn't moved on Taiwan yet. But analysts from the American Enterprise Institute to the Diplomat are flagging the same concern: depleted Pacific-ready arsenals create what they call a "window of vulnerability." Here's the uncomfortable question nobody wants to ask in DC: Did Beijing let this happen on purpose? China supplied weapons to Iran. China provided dual-use technology. But they didn't escalate militarily. That's not restraint. That's patience. A patient enemy watching you spend ammunition on a regional conflict while Taiwan sits within their strategic reach. But here's what separates Trump from Biden - he's not ignoring this. Trump invoked the Defense Production Act. Lockheed Martin quadrupled THAAD production from 96 to 400 missiles per year. PAC-3 production accelerating. He's telling defense contractors point-blank: "We need a little more speed." Just this week at a Pennsylvania summit, demanding faster output. This isn't about being scared of China. It's about being smart. You don't let one battlefield drain your ability to fight on another. Trump understands that. The industrial base is ramping. Production is accelerating. But we need Congress to fund it fully. Strategic strength means having the munitions to deter every threat at once. We're building that capacity back. Fast.show more

Our call: Arrest and neutralise the destabilisers. Dismantle and... prosecute their financiers. Enforce full accountability. The Republic now finds itself at a juncture where hesitation is a luxury it can no longer afford. The State must consolidate its defenses—not merely in rhetoric, but through deliberate, codified action under the full weight of constitutional authority, national-security doctrine, and the discipline demanded of a mature democracy. The pattern of coordinated disruptions emerging from the Duterte-aligned bloc bears all the hallmarks of a structured destabilisation effort: disinformation deployment, agitation tactics, recruitment of sympathisers within institutions, and attempts to fracture the chain of command. Under any reading of the Constitution, the Revised Penal Code, and the Human Security framework, these manoeuvres fall squarely within the ambit of threats to national stability. Thus, the Marcos administration is duty-bound to respond with calibrated precision: 👉🏻 Activate and harmonise all national-security instruments. Through the National Security Council, NICA, AFP, PNP, and allied legislative partners, the government must move in unified posture— establishing a common operating picture, shared intelligence repositories, and rapid reporting channels across executive clusters. This is well within the State’s authority under Article VII, Section 17 and the President’s power of control over all executive departments. 👉🏻 Expedite investigative and prosecutorial processes. Accelerate fact-finding and case build-ups under the mandates of RA10175, RA11479 within constitutional bounds, and the Revised Penal Code provisions on sedition, inciting to rebellion, and conspiracy against the government. Speed is not optional, rather it is a safeguard against the metastasis of subversive narratives. 👉🏻 Enforce accountability inside the perimeter of governance. Any public official— civilian or uniformed— who facilitates, shelters, or coordinates with destabilising actors must be subjected to the full sanctions of administrative and criminal law, including the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act, the Code of Conduct for Public Officials, and internal disciplinary regimes of their respective institutions. Complicity is not neutrality, rather it is participation. 👉🏻 Reaffirm the primacy of the chain of command and the authority of the State. The President, as Commander-in-Chief under Article VII, Section 18, is empowered to suppress lawless violence, rebellion, and coordinated attacks on the stability of the Republic. Any group attempting to weaponise disorder must confront a government that is both constitutionally anchored and operationally unified. 👉🏻 Communicate with strategic clarity and doctrinal discipline. Public briefings, intelligence synopses, and inter-agency updates must be transparent, coordinated, and firm— demonstrating that the government is not merely observing the threat landscape, but actively shaping it. Information dominance is a fundamental principle of national security. For those testing the tensile strength of the Republic, the State must respond with the unambiguous posture of a government unwilling to yield ground. For those sowing division, the administration must embody steadiness— guided by law, fortified by intelligence, and resolute in mission. Not a corridor of governance should be compromised. Not a pressure point of the State should be ceded. The Philippines shall not be bent by actors escaping from the light of justice. In this crucible, the Marcos administration has the rare opportunity to demonstrate command presence, constitutional fidelity, and disciplined nation-building— proving to citizens and adversaries alike that the Republic’s institutions, once tested, do not waver. They endure. They respond. They prevail. Armed Forces of the Philippines Bongbong Marcos Criminal Investigation and Detection Group Department of Justice (DOJ)show more
