On the evening of Dec 27, a spectacular drone show featuring a fleet of 1,500 drones lit up the sky above the West Lake Music Fountain. Titled “Born of Love, Love at West Lake," the #Hangzhou-#Verona-themed performance marked the largest drone display ever held over West Lake. With glowing blue lights, the drones outlined the cityscape of Verona, iconic landmarks like the Roman amphitheater, and figures such as Romeo and Juliet, as well as elements from the Chinese legend of The Butterfly Lovers.

Everything, as we know, is bigger and better under President Donald J. Trump. 🇺🇸 Nearly 250 years ago, Caesar Rodney rode 80 miles through the night to cast the deciding vote for American independence. Just days later, our Founders declared that this nation would stand free. Now, we're celebrating America's 250th birthday on the National Mall with the Great American State Fair—and this week will culminate in what is set to be the biggest fireworks show in world history. This is a celebration worthy of the greatest nation the world has ever known. Thank you to Rob Schmitt and NEWSMAX for having me on tonight.

⭐️ NEW WORLD RECORD ⭐️ Wow! We are so excited 🤩 We are now in the Guinness Book of World Records 🙏 🟨 The Golden Ambassador of Art stays explicitly for all Artists of the world to realise their ideas with CAST Studio and share them with the world. On 10.2.24 for the Chinese New Year there were briefly 2 Golden Cubes at the Burj Al Arab, the Golden Physical Cube on the Helipad and the Golden Cube consisting of 1500 drones. The perfect fusion of 2 worlds. Our global art platform CAST Studio enabled us to create a unique “world record” show centered around one of the world’s most famous landmarks, the Burj Al Arab. The integration of the digital world of NFTs, cryptocurrency (CAST Studio) with the world’s largest golden artwork (The famous Castello Cube) and a never-before-realized drone show. All assets combined at an extraordinary location, has created a global moment of excitement complementing the Chinese New Year. The year of the Dragon. With 1500 drones, we have circled -in a mesmerizing 20min showcase- the monumental structure in 360 degrees for the first time ever and achieved proudly another Guinness World Record as AO Multimedia & Drones. On the helipad at nearly 300 meters high, we staged the Castello Cube by CAST studio with three of the world’s most powerful lasers and an exceptional lighting setup consisting of 24 Ayrton Cobra Moving lights, creating a comprehensive experience for the selected guests of us. #droneshow #chinesenewyear #dubai #drones #aodrones #castellocoin #dragon #caststudio #ayrton #magic #entertainment #guinnessbookofworldrecords #yearofthedragon

MLK & U2 Martin Luther King Jr.’s influence on U2 began in 1984 with The Unforgettable Fire album, featuring: “Pride (In the Name of Love)” — U2’s iconic hit honoring King’s advocacy for love over violence, calling him “one man come in the name of love.” “MLK” — U2’s ethereal closer, a quiet prayer: “And may your dreams be realized.” U2 has played “Pride” at nearly every show since, often with King’s words or images projected onstage as Bono shares what King’s dream means to him. In 2015, Bono described it as “a dream big enough to fit the whole world... a dream where everyone is created equal under God... everyone.” In a 2022 SiriusXM U2 X-Radio tribute, Bono said: “Dr. King’s voice is louder today than it has ever been. He is one of the true fathers of our American dream.” Bono thus links King to the Founding Fathers, who declared in the Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights...” The Founding Fathers too were inspired by the Judeo-Christian belief that equality comes from God, for every human being is made in God’s image (Imago Dei, Genesis 1:26-27). 📽️U2 performing “Pride” over the years / Bono explaining King’s dream

We, at the Rajasthan Association of North America (RANA), New York, were proud to participate in the celebration of the 79th Independence Day Parade in Manhattan, New York City ,the largest parade outside India, organized by the Federation of Indian Associations (FIA – NY, NJ, CT, NE). This year marked the 43rd annual parade, and we were honored to represent our vibrant heritage. As part of the celebrations, RANA showcased Rajasthan’s world-renowned tourist destinations, including Umaid Bhawan Palace (UNESCO’s No. 1 heritage property), Mehrangarh Fort of Jodhpur, Jaipur’s iconic Hawa Mahal, and other treasures ,highlighting our initiative of celebrating 2025 as Rajasthan Tourism Year. We also proudly presented the work of Jaipur Foot USA’s parent organization, Bhagwan Mahaveer Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS) the world’s largest organization for the differently-abled (Divyang). A poster displayed on our float illustrated that, since its inception in 1975 by Padmabhushan D. R. Mehta Saab BMVSS has benefited over 2.4 million people and conducted 114 international camps ( that includes 33 international camps by Randhir Jaiswal with the best wishes of HPM Narendra Modi SIR ) in 44 countries across Asia, Africa, and Latin America. This year’s parade was especially memorable, as August 6th was proclaimed “RANA Day” by the NYC administration. A special poster showcasing this proclamation and our gratitude was prominently displayed on RANA’s first float in the last 25 years since our inception. I extend my heartfelt thanks to FIA for the honor of being part of the Pooja Archana, coconut breaking ceremony, and for giving me the opportunity to pull the ropes of the Jagannath Chariot ( considered highly auspicious) with Binaya Pradhan and other distinguished guests. Congratulations FIA NY-NJ-NE FIA Chairman Ankur Vaidya, Trustee Alok Kumar, President Saurin Parikh, and the entire FIA Team for organizing yet another historic and spectacular parade year after year, a celebration of Indian pride and unity on the world stage. *न्यूयॉर्क में भारतीय स्वतंत्रता दिवस परेड:* राजस्थान एसोसिएशन ने दिखाई राज्य की संस्कृति, 2 लाख लोग हुए शामिल

🇺🇸 🇯🇵 WARNING: YEN rate hike will trigger global economic crisis in September Yen shorts are at a nine-year high. Every single one of them is a potential forced buyer This is the death spiral: yen at 160, weakest in 40 years → BoJ hikes in September to defend it → the carry trade unwinds → to buy yen back, you have to sell what you bought with it, starting with US Treasuries (Japan is the largest foreign holder) → the 30Y is already at 5.26% (highest since 2007) and it goes higher into forced selling → US debt gets too expensive, the interest is already $1.25 trillion a year → the Fed has to choose between the bond market and inflation → it picks the bond market (because Trump forces Warsh to do it) and prints new dollars → middle class incomes get wiped, floating-rate debt and small business break first → consumption drops hard → tax revenue drops, deficit widens, global economic crisis starts Japan also imports nearly 100% of its oil and pays for it in dollars. That's a structural sell pressure against yen And yen already lost half the gains after US intervention happened 2 weeks ago It's not like every other crisis. This time you also have war in Iran, tech-race pressure from China, climbing oil prices and consumer sentiment worse than during peak depression The situation is seriously fucked up and it gets worse every single day I've already stacked over $1m in gold to buy the blood when it comes Many great companies are going to become literally free for a few months You got to have liquidity to take it If you don't: cut your spending in half, save as much as you can and just survive 99% of the population is not ready for what's coming

The most beautiful “Picnic” in the World Here is the full story of how the “Dîner en Blanc” (White Dinner) was born and why it remains one of the most beautiful dining experiences in the world 🤍✨ It all began in Paris in the summer of 1988 François Pasquier, a French entrepreneur who had just returned after years in Tahiti, wanted to reunite with his friends and celebrate his homecoming The problem was simple: his garden was too small to host everyone So he came up with a brilliant idea — an elegant picnic in the Bois de Boulogne, one of Paris’s most famous parks To make it easy for guests to find one another, he asked everyone to dress entirely in white Each person brought their own food, table, and chairs, and was encouraged to invite a new friend The result was magical: elegant tables set among the trees, white tablecloths, flowers, crystal glasses, and an atmosphere unlike anything Paris had seen before 💐 The evening was such a success that it became an annual tradition Year after year, the gathering grew The location was kept secret until the last moment, adding an element of mystery and adventure Participants arrived carrying folding tables, chairs, elegant tableware, flowers, and candles or soft lights Within minutes, a public space was transformed into a spectacular open-air dining room From a few dozen friends, Le Dîner en Blanc grew into a Parisian institution In 2018, nearly 17,000 guests gathered at the Esplanade des Invalides to celebrate its 30th anniversary Yet the formula remained unchanged: elegance, everything in white, good food, and a unique spirit of conviviality The real turning point came when the concept crossed French borders François’s son, Aymeric Pasquier, introduced it to Montreal in 2009 and New York in 2011 From there, the phenomenon spread around the world Today, Le Dîner en Blanc takes place in more than 120 cities across over 40 countries 🌍 What makes it so special is its perfect balance of simplicity and refinement It is not a commercial event but a gathering of people who transform a public space into a celebration of beauty The rules are simple: dress in white, bring elegance, respect the location, and leave everything exactly as it was found Over time, Le Dîner en Blanc has become a symbol of the French art de vivre — the ability to find beauty in everyday life and turn a simple picnic into an unforgettable experience Born almost by accident from a lack of space, it became a global phenomenon because it speaks to something universal: the joy of sharing a beautiful moment with others Even today, whenever that sea of white suddenly appears in a city somewhere in the world, the magic of that first Parisian evening comes alive again More than a picnic, it is a celebration of friendship, elegance, and the simple pleasure of being together 🫶✨

The Permanent State Has Chosen Its Side If you post the wrong opinion on social media in Britain today, you may receive a knock on the door from the police. If you display the wrong flag at a protest, you risk arrest. If you say the wrong thing about the wrong religion, you may find yourself investigated under hate speech legislation, your employer contacted, your reputation destroyed before any charge is brought. But if you are a Foreign Office civil servant, you can stand for the Iranian national anthem, mingle with officials of a regime that just days earlier had massacred its own people, raise a glass to the Islamic revolution, and face no consequences whatsoever. Because according to the Foreign Office, that is normal. Standard practice. Regularly attended under successive governments. Normal. On February 12, while Foreign Office staff attended an evening reception at the Iranian embassy in London to celebrate the 1979 Islamic revolution, the regime they were toasting had already killed at least 7,000 of its own citizens, including 219 children. Protesters were being shot in the head and neck at close range. The injured were being murdered in hospital by the IRGC. The drains of Tehran were running with blood. Britain's diplomats stood among regime officials as Iran's national anthem played and listened to the ambassador praise Iran's remarkable accomplishments. This is the two tier state laid bare: documented, filmed and released with undisguised delight by Iranian state media. The same state that has plotted over twenty terrorist attacks on British soil in a single year. The same state whose proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah, are proscribed organisations in the United Kingdom. The same state whose supreme leader was being mourned in candlelit vigils on British university campuses while administrators looked the other way. Cambridge students face no consequences for honouring Khamenei. Foreign Office officials face no consequences for celebrating his revolution. But a British citizen who questions any of this on social media faces the full machinery of the state. This is what institutional capture looks like from the inside. Not conspiracy. Not drama. Just a permanent civil service that has internalised a worldview in which celebrating a theocratic revolutionary regime is unremarkable, while policing the speech of its own citizens is a priority.

But disgraceful does not begin to cover it. This is evidence of a permanent state so thoroughly compromised that it celebrates the enemies of its own people and calls the celebration diplomacy. Any government that wins the next election will walk into this machine. It will smile at them. It will brief against them. It will obstruct, delay and outlast them.

The Permanent State Has Chosen Its Side If you post the wrong opinion on social media in Britain today, you may receive a knock on the door from the police. If you display the wrong flag at a protest, you risk arrest. If you say the wrong thing about the wrong religion, you may find yourself investigated under hate speech legislation, your employer contacted, your reputation destroyed before any charge is brought. But if you are a Foreign Office civil servant, you can stand for the Iranian national anthem, mingle with officials of a regime that just days earlier had massacred its own people, raise a glass to the Islamic revolution, and face no consequences whatsoever. Because according to the Foreign Office, that is normal. Standard practice. Regularly attended under successive governments. Normal. On February 12, while Foreign Office staff attended an evening reception at the Iranian embassy in London to celebrate the 1979 Islamic revolution, the regime they were toasting had already killed at least 7,000 of its own citizens, including 219 children. Protesters were being shot in the head and neck at close range. The injured were being murdered in hospital by the IRGC. The drains of Tehran were running with blood. Britain's diplomats stood among regime officials as Iran's national anthem played and listened to the ambassador praise Iran's remarkable accomplishments. This is the two tier state laid bare: documented, filmed and released with undisguised delight by Iranian state media. The same state that has plotted over twenty terrorist attacks on British soil in a single year. The same state whose proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah, are proscribed organisations in the United Kingdom. The same state whose supreme leader was being mourned in candlelit vigils on British university campuses while administrators looked the other way. Cambridge students face no consequences for honouring Khamenei. Foreign Office officials face no consequences for celebrating his revolution. But a British citizen who questions any of this on social media faces the full machinery of the state. This is what institutional capture looks like from the inside. Not conspiracy. Not drama.
