TROOPS OF OPERATION HADIN KAI REPEL TERRORIST ATTACK ON FORWARD OPERATING BASE MAIRARI The Joint Task Force (North East), Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK), has once again demonstrated its resilience and combat superiority as troops of CIB XIX at Forward Operating Base (FOB) Mairari successfully repelled a determined night attack by ISWAP terrorists in Mairari, Guzamala Local Government Area of Borno State. On 1 July 2026, at about 2325 hours, the terrorists launched an attack on the base. The troops responded with exceptional gallantry, engaging the attackers in a fierce firefight and forcing them to withdraw in confusion after inflicting heavy casualties on the terrorists and destroying their equipment. Items recovered include AK 47 rifles, magazines loaded with ammunition, Rocket Propelled Gun tubes among others. Surveillance footage further confirmed the evacuation of several dead and wounded terrorists from the battlefield. It would be recalled that Mairari community had only recently been resettled, with over 950 households returning to the area. The attack was also a desperate attempt by the terrorists to instill fear among the residents and disrupt the ongoing resettlement process. However, their objective was thwarted, as no civilian casualties were recorded in the community during the attack. Regrettably, two soldiers and one member of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) paid the supreme price during the intense encounter. Additionally, few equipments were damaged by Rocket Propelled Gun fire during the encounter. The Theatre Command mourns these gallant heroes and extends its heartfelt condolences to their families and loved ones. In a related development, a reinforcement team from Monguno successfully detected and safely detonated two Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) emplaced along the route before engaging the fleeing terrorists. The swift intervention further disrupted the insurgents’ withdrawal and inflicted additional casualties on them. The successful repulsion of the attack underscores the high level of operational readiness, resilience, and combat effectiveness of troops of Operation HADIN KAI. Despite the terrorists’ desperate attempt to overrun the location, the troops maintained full control of the base and continue to dominate the operational environment through sustained offensive operations. The Theatre Command commends the courage, resilience, and fighting spirit of the troops for successfully defeating the terrorists and denying them any operational success. Operation HADIN KAI remains steadfast in its commitment to defeating terrorism and restoring lasting peace, security, and stability across the North East.

Since my account is somewhat anonymous I’m going to disclose where some of the California high-speed rail money gets wasted. 99% of you don’t realize where giant chunks of the money is disappearing to. The California high-speed rail authority, literally owns thousands of parcels of land that are in various stages continued litigation, tenant improvements, eviction, and constant maintenance. For example, there are many homes and apartment complexes in the plant path that have been purchased years ahead of construction. Removing those tenants is a slow and expensive process. (let’s ignore the extra stress on housing that all of these destroyed properties are causing) In some cases, these are low rent apartments with a lengthy eviction process During that process, the state of California is the landlord and has to maintain the property codes the same as any other landlord. This means repairs, adding smoke detectors, fixing roofs, vegetation management, landscaping, paying off tenants to leave early, boarding up Windows, constant trash cleanups, towing vehicles etc. But the High Speed Rail Authority doesn’t just have to maintain these properties at normal cost. Every single bit of that work has to be done at California prevailing wage rates. The work can only be done through qualified contractors that have passed through a long series of idiotic mazes to qualify to perform the work. An average rate per hour (charge rate) for a worker to perform any service on these properties is approximately $200 an hour for labor only. The cost go up for specialized work, like electricians, plumbers, or machine operators. Properties that are literally worthless are being maintained at huge expense just so the next round of homeless transients can break into the property and cause more damage. For reasons I can’t explain, the process to finally demo and remove the structures takes years. I’m only mentioning the tip of the iceberg regarding my firsthand knowledge. Completely separate from those outlandish costs are the inflation caused by the construction. The prevailing word on the street is that nothing is getting done. The truth is that a lot is getting done and none of it efficiently. The amount of concrete being poured daily and monthly to build gigantic overpasses for both the rail and roadways is not understood. In these work areas, every concrete mixing company is fully scheduled out and cannot offer building materials for other basic services such as building a house often times for weeks when the average lead time for many of these services used to be one day. And that’s just the schedule, never mind the huge cost increases from straining the supply chain and Labor pool. The amount of concrete and steel that has gone into the structures so far is massive. Dozens and dozens of new water wells have been dug just for dust control. Thousands upon thousands of acres of highly productive tree fruits and nuts have been torn up and shredded. Utility scale solar fields have been uprooted and sometimes relocated at extravagant costs. Every type of business you can imagine has gone through either a closure, relocation, or a long-term tenant agreement with the rail authority. In some cases, it’s just a buyout where the business closes its doors forever. The owners get something all of the workers get nothing. Don’t get me started on how thick the layers of bureaucracy are for these minute tasks that occur on all of these properties. The inefficiency is far beyond your wildest dreams. In many cases, this is not related to fraud in any way it’s just absolute ignorance, red tape, and failed leadership. I can go much deeper into specific examples, but I think that gives some of you an idea of what’s actually happening in California. If a rail is ever usable, some portions of the structures will be decades old and already in disrepair.

$‼️🇷🇺📸 Satellite images confirm: A major oil refinery in the Russian city of Slaviansk-on-Kuban has suffered significant damage. A detailed analysis of the aftermath of the attack on the "Slaviansk-Eco" oil refinery in the Krasnodar region of Russia, which occurred on the night of June 28, using Ukrainian kamikaze drones, has been released. ✅ At least 17 fuel tanks of various capacities have been completely destroyed on the territory of the plant. Several other tanks have been seriously damaged, and large-scale oil spills and fires have been observed nearby. 🎯 The most critical loss for the plant is the shutdown of two atmospheric-vacuum oil refining units. These units are the "heart" of any refinery, as they are responsible for separating crude oil into its primary fractions. Their severe damage means that the plant's normal operation will be completely suspended. ▪️ Catastrophic damage has also been inflicted on the internal infrastructure: 🔥 In some sectors, the pipeline network has been completely burned out. Horizontal storage tanks for finished products and auxiliary equipment have been seriously damaged. According to experts, restoring such high-tech facilities requires complex engineering work and significant time and resources. 🏭 The Slaviansk plant was one of the leading energy facilities in southern Russia. Its design capacity was 5.2 million tons of crude oil per year (approximately 100-105 thousand barrels per day). The plant provided almost 9% of the total oil refining in the Southern Federal District of Russia. ▪️ The fuel processed at this plant was of vital importance for the Krasnodar and Stavropol regions, the Rostov region, and the occupied Crimea. In addition to domestic consumption, the plant's products were actively used to support military and civilian logistics through the ports of the Black Sea. ❌ The long-term shutdown of the plant will place a huge burden on the entire fuel system of the southern Russian region. The Kremlin will have to reorganize the logistics chains for the supply of oil products and redirect flows to other plants. The situation is further complicated by the fact that some of the other refining facilities in the region are already in a state of forced repair, as a result of successful attacks by the Ukrainian armed forces and the "long-range sanctions."

Troops stand firm, repel ISWAP attack on Pulka in Borno By Zagazola Makama Troops of the Nigerian Army operating under Operation HADIN KAI, supported by the Nigerian Air Force and the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF), have successfully repelled an attack by suspected Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) terrorists on a military position in Pulka, Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State. The attack occurred on Monday, Sept. 7, 2026, as the troops continued ongoing counter-terrorism operations in the area. Sources told Zagazola Makama that the terrorists launched an aggressive assault on the military location, apparently attempting to overwhelm the troops and disrupt ongoing security operations around the community. However, the soldiers stood their ground and responded with sustained firepower, frustrating the attackers and preventing them from gaining access to or overrunning the military position. The determined resistance reportedly forced the terrorists to withdraw from the area with casualties, while the military positions in Pulka remained firmly under the control of the security forces. The engagement was reinforced by the timely intervention of the Air Component of Operation HADIN KAI, which provided Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) support to the ground troops. The aerial surveillance enhanced the troops’ situational awareness and enabled closer coordination between the ground and air components during the engagement. As the terrorists attempted to withdraw following the resistance from the ground troops, the air component reportedly conducted precision strikes against identified hostile elements, disrupting their movement and frustrating their attempt to regroup. The CJTF also supported the operation by providing local information and assisting the security forces with situational awareness within the area. Zagazola Makama gathered that one soldier sustained a gunshot injury to his left arm during the encounter. The injured soldier was immediately evacuated for medical attention, stabilised and is currently responding to treatment. His condition was said to be stable. Following the withdrawal of the terrorists, troops commenced exploitation operations within the area to assess the damage inflicted on the attackers, recover any abandoned weapons or equipment and gather intelligence that could support follow-up operations against the fleeing elements. The successful defence of the position highlights the resilience, combat readiness and determination of troops deployed under Operation HADIN KAI to prevent terrorist groups from regaining ground or disrupting security operations in the North-East. The coordinated response involving the ground troops, Nigerian Air Force and CJTF also underscores the importance of joint operations and timely intelligence in countering terrorist attacks in the theatre. Military sources said troops remained deployed in and around Pulka and had been placed on heightened alert following the attack. They are continuing aggressive patrols, surveillance and other offensive and defensive operations aimed at denying the terrorists freedom of movement and preventing them from establishing operational footholds in the area. The troops are also expected to sustain pressure on the fleeing terrorist elements and exploit available intelligence to track their movements and disrupt their activities. Meanwhile, residents and other members of the public have been urged to remain vigilant and report suspicious persons, movements and activities to the nearest security formation. The military reiterated its commitment to protecting communities, safeguarding the lives and property of law-abiding citizens and sustaining ongoing operations to defeat terrorism and restore lasting peace and stability across the North-East.

Europe is quietly becoming what the United States once promised the world. More and more people are looking at their best years ahead and choosing a place where everyday life is designed to work. Where the future feels stable enough to plan for. Where safety is not a luxury product. Where you can build a good life without gambling your health, your family, or your dignity on one bad month. In much of Europe, the “dream” is not about becoming a billionaire. It is about becoming unafraid. It is the freedom of walking home at night without scanning every shadow. The comfort of knowing that if you get sick, you do not need to calculate whether you can afford to be treated. The relief of having a society that still believes children should carry backpacks, not trauma, and definitely not weapons. The calm of streets built for human beings, not just cars. The ability to take a holiday without feeling like you are committing career suicide. The basic decency of labor protections that assume you are a person first and a resource second. And then there is the part people underestimate until they live it: the texture of life. The cities are older and more beautiful than you expect. The distances are smaller. Weekends are real. Food is real. Public spaces are not just decorative, they are functional. Parks are full. Cafes are full. Trains take you somewhere, often across borders, without turning travel into a stress test. You can live in one country, work with another, and visit a third like it is normal because, in many places, it is. The European dream is also a quiet confidence in the social contract. That if you contribute, the system does not abandon you. That you can raise a family without feeling like you are one accident away from ruin. That “getting ahead” does not require burning out. That a good society is one where normal people can live normal lives and still feel proud of them. This is why more and more Americans are not just visiting Europe, but staying. Some come for studies and never leave. Some arrive for a job and realise the lifestyle is the real promotion. Some originally planned a one year experiment and then cannot imagine going back to a place where stress is treated as a personality trait and insecurity is marketed as freedom. Europe is not perfect. It has bureaucracy. It has politics. It has problems that deserve criticism. But in many European countries, life is still built around a simple idea: society should reduce fear, not monetise it. That is the new dream. And people can feel it the moment they arrive. If you could choose one thing to trade for a better life, what would it be: more income, or more security? And what do you think your country would have to change for people to stop leaving, and start staying? Stay connected, Follow Gandalv Gandalv

$President Trump is cooking the Islamic regime from the inside, deepening the fractures by pressing it from outside. Those who don’t know the regime don’t know where to look for the cracks, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t there. Since Trump reposted Foreign Minister Araghchi’s post, I’ve been waiting for exactly these: + In Mashhad, regime hardliners, Khamenei’s loyal ‘orcs’, gathered in front of the Foreign Ministry chanting “Death to the infiltrator Araghchi!”, “Death to the dishonorable traitor!”, and openly calling for his execution. + Regime’s hardliner’s chat groups are flooded with calls for more protests nationwide. + In reaction, Police Chief Radan has already warned that anyone demonstrating against “national unity” and the deal will be crushed. Now you see why Radan is still alive? Here is what you need to know: In his final years, Khamenei had become extremely paranoid. He had built the IRGC to protect the regime, yet he feared it more than anything. So he deliberately fragmented power inside the IRGC so no single person or faction could concentrate money and control. He played different “gangs” against each other, constantly managing their rivalries. At the same time, he bred a special layer of extremely brutal, loyal orcs recruited from the poor, marginalized, and mentally unstable underclass, people loyal only to him personally. These were his ultimate tool to keep the rest in check. Now that he is gone, the power vacuum has triggered open war. These orcs answer to no one else. A cartel inside the regime had already surrounded Khamenei, eliminated serious rivals (the 2024 helicopter crash that killed Raisi, his only real successor, and the hardline Foreign Minister Abdollahian), and effectively sold him out to the US. Khamenei’s orcs are not stupid. They can clearly see what happened, which is why they call Araghchi exactly what he is: an infiltrator and traitor. They know they are being sold out. After the ceasefire they needed time to reorganize. Trump is now pressuring them to sort it out. The bloody “pigs’ war” for the top seat and the billions in oil money, smuggling, and sanctions-busting is approaching. And it will hopefully mean they eliminate and weaken each other without a single American or Israeli soldier being put at risk, and without Iranian protesters having to bleed in the streets. It’s slow, but it works. Trump said it again: he wants Americans to go inside Iran to take the uranium. If that happens in non-war conditions, it’s game over for the regime. They won’t be able to suppress the population with Americans watching, and arming Iranians becomes far easier, no need for treacherous middlemen like the Kurds anymore. Let Trump cook. Hopefully these terrorists finish each other off. P.S. The hardliner women are wearing kafan on top of their Chador, the white burial shrouds Muslims use to wrap corpses before burial.

President Trump is cooking the Islamic regime from the inside, deepening the fractures by pressing it from outside. Those who don’t know the regime don’t know where to look for the cracks, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t there. Since Trump reposted Foreign Minister Araghchi’s post, I’ve been waiting for exactly these: + In Mashhad, regime hardliners, Khamenei’s loyal ‘orcs’, gathered in front of the Foreign Ministry chanting “Death to the infiltrator Araghchi!”, “Death to the dishonorable traitor!”, and openly calling for his execution. + Regime’s hardliner’s chat groups are flooded with calls for more protests nationwide. + In reaction, Police Chief Radan has already warned that anyone demonstrating against “national unity” and the deal will be crushed. Now you see why Radan is still alive? Here is what you need to know: In his final years, Khamenei had become extremely paranoid. He had built the IRGC to protect the regime, yet he feared it more than anything. So he deliberately fragmented power inside the IRGC so no single person or faction could concentrate money and control. He played different “gangs” against each other, constantly managing their rivalries. At the same time, he bred a special layer of extremely brutal, loyal orcs recruited from the poor, marginalized, and mentally unstable underclass, people loyal only to him personally. These were his ultimate tool to keep the rest in check. Now that he is gone, the power vacuum has triggered open war. These orcs answer to no one else. A cartel inside the regime had already surrounded Khamenei, eliminated serious rivals (the 2024 helicopter crash that killed Raisi, his only real successor, and the hardline Foreign Minister Abdollahian), and effectively sold him out to the US. Khamenei’s orcs are not stupid. They can clearly see what happened, which is why they call Araghchi exactly what he is: an infiltrator and traitor. They know they are being sold out. After the ceasefire they needed time to reorganize. Trump is now pressuring them to sort it out. The bloody “pigs’ war” for the top seat and the billions in oil money, smuggling, and sanctions-busting is approaching. And it will hopefully mean they eliminate and weaken each other without a single American or Israeli soldier being put at risk, and without Iranian protesters having to bleed in the streets. It’s slow, but it works. Trump said it again: he wants Americans to go inside Iran to take the uranium. If that happens in non-war conditions, it’s game over for the regime. They won’t be able to suppress the population with Americans watching, and arming Iranians becomes far easier, no need for treacherous middlemen like the Kurds anymore. Let Trump cook.

Appeal for the Protection of Balochistan’s Ancient Historical Heritage Independent Republic of Balochistan: 22 August, 2026 Balochistan has been blessed by nature not only with vast seas, immense mineral resources, and a highly strategic geographical location, but also with the honour of being one of the important centres of some of humanity’s oldest civilizations. Mehrgarh, the Indus Valley Civilization, and other ancient archaeological sites stand as living evidence of the thousands of years of Balochistan’s human, cultural, and civilizational history. Earlier this month, a large quantity of valuable ancient artefacts was discovered in Dera Bugti during excavations by local people, while just yesterday, local Baloch people in the oil and mineral rich region of the Kohlu District (Kohlu, Kahan of Kohistan Marri region is known the richest region of entire Balochistan. These discoveries have once again drawn the world’s attention to the deep and ancient civilizational history of Balochistan. Where is Kohlu? It is believed that It has more oil than Venezuela and Iran) also discovered ancient artefacts and archaeological remains. Kohlu is the hometown of Baloch nationalist leader Hyrbyair Marri HYRBYAIR MARRI the son of Baloch nationalist leader Nawab Khair Bakhsh Marri. Former army chief Gen. Pervez Musharraf offered billion royalty to the Nawab Marri and Hyrbyair Marri to allow Pakistan for oil, gas, gold, critical minerals exploration but both the leaders refused to allow Pakistani military to extract the Baloch resources. These artefacts are not merely old objects; they are living documents of Balochistan’s past. Every seal, vessel, ornament, tool, sculpture, or other ancient object preserves the story of an era from which valuable knowledge can be gained about human society, trade, art, religion, ways of life, and the evolution of civilization. Scientific research into these remains can contribute not only to understanding Balochistan but also to understanding the shared history of all humanity. It is a great honour for Balochistan that its land has preserved such ancient civilizations and historical heritage. The Republic of Balochistan appeals to all international institutions, archaeologists, historians, museums, and organizations working to preserve ancient civilizations, Mehrgarh, the Indus Valley Civilization, and human history to play their role in protecting Balochistan’s historical heritage. Balochistan urgently needs international attention and cooperation so that these precious artefacts can be preserved, documented, and made available for scientific research, while protecting them from illegal transfer, destruction, or loss. We are also deeply concerned that if this historical heritage falls into the hands rogue state of Pakistan who seek to erase Balochistan’s history, language, and culture rather than preserve them, these artefacts could also suffer irreparable damage. In the context of reports of destruction and pressure involving educational and cultural institutions, libraries, and materials related to Baloch history and culture in Balochistan, as well as actions against students, teachers, professors, and individuals conducting research on history, serious international concern is necessary regarding the protection of these ancient remains. This is not only a time to rediscover the past, but also to protect it. These archaeological remains are not merely the heritage of the Baloch people; they are part of the shared civilizational heritage of all humanity. The world must take immediate steps to protect Balochistan’s ancient historical heritage, provide experts with opportunities for research and documentation, and ensure that these rare testimonies of thousands of years of human history do not become victims of Pakistan's state terrorism, war, neglect, illegal trade, or any form of destruction. Balochistan wishes to preserve and present this magnificent heritage of its land to the world with dignity, so that future generations may also see, understand, and take pride in their ancient history.

WINDOWS // NYC is an interwoven city that we will all build out together. There are three collections that all interconnect, windows, buildings, and the city itself. Here is exactly how this will unfold with Transient Labs on Tuesday, June 16th. 🏢🏢🏢🏢🏢 BUILDINGS are generative grids of windows, assembled through an onchain seed derived from Ethereum block data and each work’s token ID, creating distinct sizes and layouts. My collectors, friends and family, and limited partner communities can mint these BUILDINGS before public at 0.015Ξ This presale window is FCFS will last two hours (12 NOON EST to 2 PM EST) All remaining supply will go to public at 0.018Ξ after the presale ends. Supply is 1/1/4000 total buildings, each grid is completely unique, and some have very special qualities :) 🪟🪟🪟🪟🪟 Individual windows are 1/1/1000, and each mint is one single window. This is gated at first to my existing collectors, max mint 50 windows per wallet. Priced at 0.03Ξ, blind mint with instant reveal- this section is packed with gems- cats, plants, neon signs, and a bit of New York City embedded in every frame. Its these single windows that are the foundational layer of this project, since all grids are comprised of these windows. All my existing collectors get these multipliers on mint day, final snapshot is MONDAY the 15th at high noon, EST. For example: Drips // 2x DRIVE Lap 1 // 3x DRIVE Lap 2 // 2x 1/1 // 5x Editions // 1x GRAILS from DRIVE and DRIP DROP have an additional allocation on top. To ask about specific collections of mine, drop a comment here. 🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃 Additionally, the major work of this collection is the CITY, a 1/1 interconnected dynamic galaxy of light composed of all the layers below. This also comes with a large, museum quality physical lightbox of all 1,000 windows illuminated from within. This work will be placed by private sale. The CITY contract will also hold 20 NEIGHBORHOODS, our second largest arrangements of WINDOWS, and can be customized in collaboration with the artist or accepted as random grids. NEIGHBORHOODS will have 15 tokens at 1Ξ for private sale, with 5 held back for top holders of BUILDINGS. I am so excited to build this city with all of you. I've never worked so hard on anything in my life, and I am so grateful to all of you for the support so far. Let's do this thing!!!!

Nigel Farage and his Speculative Security Things we know: 1) a few weeks ago, the Guardian dropped a smouldering grenade into the Farage campsite with their revelation that he had 'forgotten' to declare the paltry sum of £5M, given to him by Chakrit Sakunkrit [Christopher Harborne] — Thai businessman and crypto magnate. 2) Farage regularly 'forgets' to declare income from his myriad jobs outside Parliament. In the last reporting period he 'forgot' 17 outside jobs totalling around £385,000. His excuse. “I don't do computers”. 3) there are already donations and gifts missing from his last register update — see The Finance Guy for more on that. Things we've been told: a) the £5M was an unconditional gift. b) the £5M was a reward for Brexit. c) the £5M was to pay for his security — for life. Let's focus on the security aspect because, I believe, Farage is trying to construct a counterfactual and has been caught lying. Again. In October of 2025, Zia Yusuf, Satan's Head Boy, was sent cross all media outlets — and I do mean all of them — to talk about the government's removal of some of Nigel's security costs; up to 75% if you believe Yusuf. What has never been made clear about this claim are, one, if it actually happened, and two, if it did, what sums of cash were being forfeited? There are two videos below. One in which Zia Yusuf took to 𝕏 on October 1st 2025, in a very earnest fashion to make claims about his best friend's safety where he stated at one point, that if Farage was killed, he would blame Keir Starmer. Yikes! He talks about donors stepping up at that point to cover the security costs for Farage. The second video is the one which contradicts Yusuf. From BBC Newsnight earlier this month when Farage states that he was given the £5M back in 2024 as: “an unconditional, non-political, personal gift. And it will ensure I can be safe for the rest of my life.” So. Two things are clearly jumping out at me from these statements. Firstly, lies are being told by Yusuf and/or Farage. Secondly, in the BBC video, he makes the claim that the 'gift' is non-political but to protect him … as a politician. To me, this is definitive proof that he's lying about the donation. If he received this money in 2024 for a lifetime of private security, then why the need for 'donors to step up' and pay for it again in Oct. 2025? Which is it? Neither, I'd suggest. I think the entire thing is a shonky counterfactual, hastily cobbled together to cover up the fact that he's been caught out pocketing millions in undeclared donations. Thanks to Jim Nauseum 2.0 and Chris S for the video and nudge, respectively. I have supplied a new branch of questions that our broadcasters can put to Reform UK MPs. I hope that they do. Have a lovely sunny Friday. ☺️

The death of MAGA was long overdue. It died not with a Bang on a stage, like some tried. But with a whimper in an interview about how “Americans don’t have any talent.” I do think he actually believes (some) of his own bullshit. He’s a businessman with billionaire businessman friends. He thinks what’s best for Hyatt Hotels is best for the country. He thinks hotels, farms, tech, banks, resorts, everybody flying in cheap foreign Thirdworld labor is good for business, therefor it’s good. Americans “didn’t want those jobs anyways 👋🏼😌” even though those jobs are in America and Americans are EXACTLY who worked them before. Americans were the ONLY ones working jobs in America during all of Trump’s lifetime, actually. But somewhere, somehow, it was decided that American businesses had a fundamental human right to claim Thirdworlders are geniuses and only they can work American jobs, which has always been code for “they’ll do it for far less pay. 😉” Trump and all of his friends did it for decades. They imported entire Thirdworld families, patted them on the head for being “good little workers”, and slipped a $20 with a wink to the guy holding the door, feeling VERY virtuous indeed. Now that EVERY sector of the U.S. economy is under siege by compounded Thirdworld foreign visa scamming, and companies are more and more flagrantly abusing the absurd fact that they are allowed to do it, Trump is being pulled in two directions. Does he listen to the voice of the American people? The American people telling him this economy fucking sucks actually (a blow to his ego, “Don’t they see the stock market??”) and that they can’t get jobs (“They just must not be looking very hard, back in my day you’d walk right in and give a firm handshake”) Or does he listen to the billionaire business friends, thanking him for a BOOMING economy, lionizing his BEAUTIFUL policies (“so smart!”), and imploring him to keep H-1B and other American Replacement schemes open because “I just can’t find anyone! Half these Americans don’t want to work anymore, you know how it is Don. LIBERALS and Woke Right! Losers!” Trump has spoken clearly which side he has chosen. This outcome always made sense for him. He was never our Noticer. He must be left behind. His mistakes won’t be useless; they helped everyone to see what REALLY matters, under a new America (and AMERICANS) First Nationalism. 🔥🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

An email sent to An Taoiseach Simon Harris TD this morning. I’ll keep you all posted if I hear back ❤️ Hi Simon, I am writing to you as an incredibly concerned parent of an 8.5 year old boy, Harvey. Harvey has Spina bifida and scoliosis which in itself is challenging, but when those conditions are coupled with a lack of access to therapy, a hospital that is potentially misappropriating funds, and incredibly long wait lists for urgent and life changing surgeries, then it becomes impossible to adequately care for your child. Harvey had an Xray in January 2024 that showed his scoliosis curve is at 110°, if you have read in to scoliosis then I am sure you are aware how this is at a point where it is detrimental to his health and quality of life. Harvey was under Connor Green and was listed for urgent surgery in February 2022 after repeated pneumonia infections, 30 months later he is still only on the surgical list under Connor Green as he does not have a surgeon willing to operate. The task force you hold in such high regard has not made contact with my family, nor is there any details online of how to contact them to enquire as to when your child will finally be treated. You continually tell families like ours that you care, and you have been promising to fix this since 2017. 2017 was the year we were told that Harvey’s ribs were crushing his lungs and controlling his scoliosis was life and death. Here we are in 2024 and nothing has changed except we now have a surgeon under investigation, longer wait lists, more children waiting, a still not complete hospital, and funds not being spent as intended and no answers yet as to where the money *we* fought for went. You say you care but your actions have left us feeling anything but. We as a family also have a child facing open heart surgery next month and this is just more stress and concern that we do not need. Another summer has just passed and Harvey has spent the majority in his room, often needing to go back in to bed because he is in so much pain. Is that the life you think the children of Ireland deserve? Would you accept that if it was your own child? Can you imagine being told your child has a potentially life threatening condition but that it will be years before it would be treated? We need actual action, not more empty promises. You need to engage with all advocacy groups, not just those that are currently working with the task force. There are very valid reasons why the other groups have chosen to not engage and they need to be heard. We need contact details and open dialogue with the task force so that we can actually feel its existence. We need answers as to where the funding for scoliosis and spina bifida services went. Most of all, these children need to get their quality of life back before their whole childhood passes. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind Regards. Gillian Sherratt

🇰🇷 | High tensions in South Korea as protests erupt against Iran war deployment plans. South Korea is actively preparing to become the first country to join the US militarily in the Strait of Hormuz — and Seoul has seen daily protests ever since officials confirmed it. Police tried to contain demonstrators as they took to the streets. With slogans such as "Everyone opposed to the Hormuz deployment, unite!" and "Refuse US military pressure!", activists are protesting near the US embassy in the capital. The demonstrations are organised by Seoul Peace Solidarity and National People's Action, which have urged the government not to bow to US pressure or capitulate to Washington, and vowed to continue the mobilisations. Further protests are planned. Washington has pressured Seoul for months to deploy forces to West Asia. It has never looked closer to reality. Seoul has notified Washington it is willing to dispatch naval ships and maritime patrol aircraft, and local media report parliamentary approval is already being prepared. It would be South Korea's first deployment at US request in 22 years. The deployment still requires that approval to proceed, but officials confirmed preparations are already under way regardless. While South Korea frames the package as "defensive," it would actively supply and enable US military operations against Iran, providing logistics, intelligence and direct cooperation with US forces. South Korea imports essentially all of its crude oil, 70% of it from the Gulf, leaving it heavily dependent on traffic through the Strait. Iran's foreign ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei warned Seoul on Monday, in Korean, that any country operating in the Strait would be regarded as directly supporting the aggressor, and that a sovereign state must not yield to US pressure. Just last month, Washington downgraded its most important annual drills with Seoul, saying South Korea had refused to back its war on Iran. South Korea is arguably the most subordinated country in the world to the US military. Under OPCON, it is the only country on earth whose military would pass to American command in wartime. It hosts one of the largest US contingents anywhere, and Washington is its most important diplomatic and military partner.

Police tried to contain demonstrators as they took to the streets. With slogans such as "Everyone opposed to the Hormuz deployment, unite!" and "Refuse US military pressure!", activists are protesting near the US embassy in the capital. The demonstrations are organised by Seoul Peace Solidarity and National People's Action, which have urged the government not to bow to US pressure or capitulate to Washington, and vowed to continue the mobilisations. Further protests are planned. Washington has pressured Seoul for months to deploy forces to West Asia. It has never looked closer to reality. Seoul has notified Washington it is willing to dispatch naval ships and maritime patrol aircraft, and local media report parliamentary approval is already being prepared. It would be South Korea's first deployment at US request in 22 years. The deployment still requires that approval to proceed, but officials confirmed preparations are already under way regardless. While South Korea frames the package as "defensive," it would actively supply and enable US military operations against Iran, providing logistics, intelligence and direct cooperation with US forces. South Korea imports essentially all of its crude oil, 70% of it from the Gulf, leaving it heavily dependent on traffic through the Strait. Iran's foreign ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei warned Seoul on Monday, in Korean, that any country operating in the Strait would be regarded as directly supporting the aggressor, and that a sovereign state must not yield to US pressure. Just last month, Washington downgraded its most important annual drills with Seoul, saying South Korea had refused to back its war on Iran. South Korea is arguably the most subordinated country in the world to the US military. Under OPCON, it is the only country on earth whose military would pass to American command in wartime. It hosts one of the largest US contingents anywhere, and Washington is its most important diplomatic and military partner.

#Leaked info with deep details: Tom Barrack’s final offer to SDF to Join Syrian terrorists and attack PMF in Iraq Or Damascus attack on Kurds will continue , SDF Commander rejected the offer and said “we are freedom fighter not mercenary” Here are more details as follows: US Syria envoy Tom Barrack’s offer shocked the Kurdish leaders and military commander in a meeting in Erbil, the capital city of Iraqi Kurdistan. On 17 January 2026, Tom Barrack arrived in Erbil to have a meeting with Kurdish leader Masoud Barzani and SDF top commander Mazloum Abdi, along with other Kurdish officials, regarding the so-called Syrian regime’s nonstop attacks on Kurdish areas in Syria. Everybody in the meeting was waiting for the American diplomat to offer a ceasefire deal that would make everyone happy and end the conflict, but Tom Barrack said that Syrian bombardment and attacks would stop only under one condition: if they accepted to join the Syrian army and attack the Popular Mobilization Forces in Iraq, according to an American source in Syria. Firstly, Masoud Barzani was stunned after hearing this offer, as you can see in the following photo and video. SDF commander Mazloum Abdi was very, very shocked and angry, and was trying hard to control his anger with his hands, as you can see in the video. He was followed by Prime Minister Masrour Barzani, who in the video appeared very upset and dazed. Finally, the SDF commander replied, “I’m sorry, I cannot accept this kind of offer because I’m not a mercenary; I’m a freedom fighter. My forces are working for humanity. We fought the Islamic State terrorist organisation to bring peace. I cannot go join these terrorists and fight in Iraq.” Tom Barrack responded, “Ok, that’s fine, then accept bombardments,” and the meeting ended. At that time, just 30 minutes later, Turkish drones attacked the Kurds, alongside 10,000 terrorists in Deir ez-Zor, and they took over oil fields in Deir ez-Zor, as well as an ISIS detainee prison and released ISIS members. That day and the day after were the deadliest days for Kurds in Syria, and many other Kurdish fighters were beheaded. It became clear that Tom Barrack, Erdogan, and Jolani were in close contact regarding the bombing of Kurds. Finally, Tom Barrack yesterday announced that the role of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) as the “primary anti-ISIS force on the ground” has “largely expired.” The plan of attacking jihadists from Syria to Sunni areas in Iraq, and then into Iran, is engineered by Erdogan and Hakan Fidan, and whispered to Washington by Tom Barrack. To give you a hint about this leaked document, I’ll put a video showing you how the Syrian terrorists are moving towards Iraq and preparing to attack inside Iraq. Erdogan’s goal is hit 2 birds with 1 stone. Firstly, Erdogan wants to destroy Israel’s theory of David Corridor, which connects Israel to the Druze, and from there to the Kurds in Syria, followed by the Kurds in Iraq, and then the Kurds in Iran. Secondly, Erdogan wants to expand his influence in the region, as he hopes to establish a second Ottoman Empire. Because in Syria today, Jolani is just a cartoon, he is not a decision maker. The person who makes the decisions in Syria is Hakan Fidan, and the sultan is Erdogan. The so-called Syrian regime cannot make any decision without passing through the Turkish filter. Erdogan is keeping his Turkish and jihadi fighters as a block inside the so-called Syrian army; around 6 cities and towns are under Hamshat, Hamzat, and 5 other non-Syrian terrorist groups such as the Uyghur, Turkmenistan, etc., all under the control of Turkey. The number of forces that directly get orders from Turkey has now reached 104,000, and their number is increasing rapidly as Turkish intelligence keeps transporting terrorists into Syria. The majority are uneducated and know nothing more than “Allah u Akbar.” Erdogan only brought them, trained them, and is using them as a proxy in Syria. If we be honest, Syria is fully under the control of Turkey. After Erdogan takes control of Kurdish areas in Syria, his next plan is to send his jihadi terrorists to take over the city of Mosul, Kirkuk, Tel Afar, Sinjar, and complete Iraqi Kurdistan. After that, Erdogan’s final goal is inside Iran; again, Erdogan wants to destroy the Kurdish area with terrorists and establish the second Azerbaijan in Iran. While all this is happening, now is the question. How has Trump fallen into Erdogan’s Ottoman Empire plan, with all this CIA, FBI, and intel groups that America has? How has Mossad not warned Trump that Erdogan’s plan in north Syria is not something dangrous? Another question that American Congress should ask: how can one real estate guy such as Tom Barrack, with a racist nationalist Arab background, become a US diplomat in the Middle East that is full of corruption? If Tom Barrack stays for a bit longer, he won’t leave any American allies in the Middle East. As many reports suggest that Tom Barrack is a Turkish asset. Now is the time to ask American journalists, human rights organisations, and television networks to ask Tom Barrack what kind of humanity he believes in, where he deals with Erdogan and Jolani, puts the heads of Kurdish fighters under terrorist knives, and asks the Kurds to become mercenary fighters in Iraq—or face death and bombardment from Turkey and Islamic State and Jolani terrorist attacks. #rojava #DefendRojava #Iraq

vPay offshore accounts and physical cards have been getting field-tested IRL for a while now, and we’ll open them to the public as soon as we’re fully confident in the UX. But before offshore accounts go public, I want to address a few points: Some might point out that - vPay isn’t the first crypto card - vPay doesn’t have the lowest fees - So why choose vPay instead of the Coinbase 🛡️ Card or MetaMask 🦊 Card or KAST or or Tria, or any of the other big names? Now to address: Privacy | The biggest differentiator that sets vPay completely apart is Private Banking. The majority of the crypto card providers on the market use Rain infra. Even if you’ve never heard of them, that's what your favorite "NeoBank" uses. And due to their legal jurisdictions, they will report your finances to authorities since they're CRS and FACTA compliant. We are not. As an OmniBank, we work with different banking partners, and although KYC is required to use our services, our offshore banks are non-CRS and non-FACTA. Tax reporting is the responsibility and choice of the user. Offshore Accounts vs Physical Cards | I've tried to highlight this a few times so far. vPay has 3 offerings on the banking side of things. Virtual cards - live now. Physical cards - coming Q1 2026. The first two are similar to what everyone else on the market offers. The offshore accounts are not. which are coming this week. They allow unlimited spending, ATM withdrawals, and international SWIFT transfers, which very few “Neobanks” provide. Offshore accounts are coming this week. Self-Custody | We're not 100% non-custodial yet, as that is near impossible at the moment but it's something we're working towards. And we try to keep the users' self-custodial wallets in the loop as much as possible for maximum control. Those who have tried the vPay app know that almost every move asks for permission from their wallet, and we always encourage users to keep their funds in their non-custodial wallets until the very last moment, since our top-ups usually only take seconds to a minute to process. Fees | All of the card providers mentioned above either raised millions from VCs or in presales or have a huge org backing them. We have neither. vPay was self-funded and community-owned since day 1, launched under Virtuals Protocol Genesis V1 launch model, an objectively bad launch model and hugely unfavorable toward project teams. So even though vPay has been generating revenue and profitable from early on, we do not have the luxury of offering 0% fees yet, since they're mostly a marketing gimmick paid for by millions in VC money and not a sustainable business model for early-stage companies. What we're working towards instead, is true co-ownership of vPay and revenue-share with users. OmniBank vs NeoBank | I’m not a fan of the term “NeoBank.” It implies just a bank, but make it crypto. That’s not vPay. Our goals have always been clear: A) Anything and everything users need to do with their money and assets, both Web2 and Web3, all in one hub. Powered by a constellation of partner agents. The cards and the bank accounts are just the foundation. B) To eventually build independent financial rails for crypto and decouple from the chokehold of Visa/Mastercard. vLink is the first step toward this vision. This turned out to be a rather long tweet, but context matters. Questions and feedback welcome in replies or DMs. See you all with your vPay vCards very soon.

Managed to get out of Dubai. The following is my personal opinion & experience 🇦🇪 Everything went quite seamless. Careem cabs operate normally. The airport is extremely well organized, considering the circumstances. The world has changed since Saturday and unfortunately, the country I moved to 3 years ago has been under heavy attacks. Why? No one really knows. However, I find it extremely disturbing that most media - including our beloved CT - exploits that serious situation to take cheap shots at Dubai and people who moved here. There are real families and hard working people affected. Most are scared or feel extremely uncomfortable. It's a traumatizing experience to hear missile interceptions right above your house. Nothing I wish for any human to ever experience, no matter if you pay 0% or 50% taxes. I don't even know what the link between those two things should be?? If anything, it proves that the UAE cares about their people and is able to protect its residents. Even at 0% income tax. Dubai was not known for it's strong military. It was always portrayed to be bling-bling golden steaks and influencers. But the UAE has shown the entire world that it can defend 1,000+ drones and 200+ missiles from a direct neighbor. That is impressive, whether you love or hate the UAE. Many countries would likely not be able to absorb that. So, if anything: Dubai and the UAE have demonstrated that the system works. I have lived in multiple countries around the world and the UAE is by far the most capable of handling crisis. Why did I leave Dubai then? Because it's not a situation I want to be in. Missile interceptions and drone explosions are no joke. Besides the danger that debris could hit your roof, there's an incredible intensity in the air. Most describe it as "intense calmness". While the Government managed to keep everyone from panicking, it's impossible for everyone to stay fully calm. And you can feel that in the day to day. The first night I got virtually no sleep. The night of my departure neither. I haven't left my house at all after the attacks started. But I'm out now. I really hope that leaving the country wasn't necessary, and that I will be able to come back to Dubai as soon as possible. And no, I'm not paid to say this, nor did I sign anything. Maybe part of the truth why no one who lives in Dubai has bad things to say about it is because it's one of the rare places on earth where people actually trust the Government and respect them? Not only for creating wealth and understanding business, but for caring and communicating in a way most other countries are simply incapable of. Anyways, I guess the point of this post is to 1) Tell everyone in Dubai that it's possible to leave right now. I know many people are very scared and want to get out. Be persistent with the airline if they cancel your flight and push hard to get rebooked on the next available one. And maybe choose a destination that isn't Europe, considering most of these flights are overbooked already and impossible to get on. 2) Dubai's self defense is impressive and we should acknowledge that. At least this one time, let's not derail into irrelevant discussions but show respect to the leaders + express empathy for those affected. 3) As an expat living in Dubai, I can still feel proud of my home country and do not have to choose. This isn't a black and white situation. Dubai is a melting pot of cultures and great place for Business. Other countries have better nature, social life or other things. It's also up to individual preference. 4) If you hate Dubai, yalla you don't need to live here, visit nor speak about it. Enjoy the place you live in and focus on your own. No need to feel triggered and take cheap shots at hard working people and families that are currently under heavy missile attacks. One final thing that really became clear to me this week is that after all, safety, health and living in freedom are absolutely priceless. May this all be over with soon and for sustaining peace to come in 🤲🏼
