Kapil Dev aged into Honour Imran Khan aged into Confinement. That contrast will haunt the record books far longer than any political verdict. Because long after governments change, and headlines fade, there will still be one undeniable truth: A country is judged not by how loudly it celebrates its... heroes at their peak, but by how humanely it treats them when they are at their weakest. And today, Imran Khan’s silence from behind bars speaks louder than any speech he ever gave. Today, no Pakistani players say anything about him or support him. Earlier the Cricketing story in Pakistan used to revolve around him. Not in disagreement. Not in criticism. But in forgetting. A nation can oppose a leader without humiliating a legend. A country can argue with politics without erasing history. But when a World Cup–winning captain is reduced to a prisoner, treated not as a symbol of national pride but as a problem to be silenced, something far deeper has broken. Now Sir Kapil Dev Kapil Dev’s story did not end when the applause faded. Years passed. Records were broken. New idols emerged. Yet India never pushed Kapil Dev into silence. He always gets respect. He is remembered as the man who gave India belief before money, leagues, and global fame arrived. He was allowed to live freely, speak openly and disagree without fear. When Kapil Dev walks into a stadium today he does not need an introduction. The respect rises before the applause. India understood something vital: A hero’s greatest contribution doesn’t expire with time.show more

I think the presenter is on to something big, but where I disagree with her is that she accuses African leaders and gives a subtle pass to African citizens. It is not true that African citizens were oblivious to what Trump or Epstein are. They knew, but they simply did not have the ability to think critically that when Trump talks about LGBT issues, it is not necessarily that he does not support them, but that he understood there is a group of foolish people out there who would buy into that rhetoric without interrogating why he was deploying it. Some of Trump’s best friends, like Peter Mandelson, are gay, yet some Africans were foolish enough to believe that Trump is anti-gay. He simply understood how human beings operate, that there are times when people fail to think, a tragic failure to think, and they just go with the flow. If you ask Africans today what they gained from the perceived homophobia that Trump projected, which we know was political theatre targeted at a particular audience, they will not be able to tell you. Trump might be many things to many people. I do not like him and everybody knows that, but the one thing I respect him for is that he understands his audience. He knows what to say when he is talking to foolish people. He knows what to say when he is talking to idiotic people. He knows what to say when he is talking to sycophants. He knows what to say when he is talking to people who do not understand the world of politics, and he gets away with it. And for that, I give it to him. He becomes a political superstar precisely because you then have black people in Africa supporting him. That in itself shows you the scale of political illiteracy that exists, where people rally behind rhetoric crafted to manipulate them, not to advance their interests.

Periods are natural. Stigma is not. If a girl misses school because there are no sanitary pads, no water and no privacy, it is not her personal problem. It is our collective failure. We live in a country where alcohol and cigarettes are sold openly, but sanitary pads are still wrapped in newspaper as if they must be hidden. Somewhere along the way, society turned a biological fact into a social taboo. A matter of science has been turned into a matter of silence. Menstrual hygiene is not charity. It is not a favour. It is not a side issue. It is a matter of health, education and equality. Above all, it is a matter of dignity. Raised this issue in Parliament today because it affects over 35 crore women and girls in India. A nation cannot call itself truly progressive if millions of girls still face fear, shame and silence for something so basic. The real test of progress is simple. The day every girl in India can go to school, live with dignity and speak about this without stigma, that will be the day we can truly say our society has moved forward.

Before Imran Khan’s dirty politics, lies, and propaganda, Pakistanis used to celebrate with unity and joy. This is how people once prayed for Nawaz Sharif for making Pakistan a nuclear state. But ever since Imran Khan came into politics, he has filled the nation with nothing but hatred. No one questions him about what development he has brought to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in 13 years, even the roads there are still broken. If you remove Nawaz Sharif and Shehbaz Sharif from Pakistan’s politics, there would have been no development in the country at all.

"He is not in a Team, He is in a Family." 🥹 Jean Alesi on if he gave Sir Lewis Hamilton any advice, what Lewis brings to Ferrari, and how "impressed" the guys who worked on Lewis' car were: Q: Did you give Lewis Hamilton any advice? Alesi: No, no, no. I wouldn't allow it, even if as a member of the Italian family I could give him some advice. Not advice, but the way an Italian family behaves. Because today he is not in a team, he is in a family and it is important to understand the mechanism, the mentality. But I am sure he has already understood many things. Q: What can he bring to Ferrari? Alesi: He brings quality. He is a guy who is seven times world champion. Arriving here, he brings his experience, but also his humility. Because when I talk to the guys who worked on his car, they were impressed by how he behaves.

Every time a catastrophe strikes India, without even flinching, they immediately jump to blame Pakistan and this dangerous pattern has continued for far too long. This must stop. As two nuclear armed nations, we must act with maturity and foresight. Former Prime Minister Imran Khan had already warned the international community during his address to the UN General Assembly in 2019: this is not a threat, but a fair warning, he said. Because when a nuclear armed country fights to the end, it will have consequences far beyond the borders. Imran Khan

Issues of paternity have shaped our society for generations, especially in Zimbabwe. They did not start today. I remember going to a funeral with my father in the 1990s, and as we sat around the fire the men began sharing stories. One of them has stayed with me ever since. A Zimbabwean doctor had married a nurse, and they struggled to have children. As usual, when there is no child, the blame was placed on the woman. She went to see her own doctor, who told her plainly that she was not the problem, and advised her to bring her husband for testing. The husband refused, as many Zimbabwean men tend to do. Their marriage eventually collapsed, with the man insisting he could not be the problem because he had a child with another woman before marrying the nurse. That woman, he said, was also a doctor, and he was raising that child. After the divorce, the nurse remarried another doctor, and she immediately fell pregnant. Because it was a tight medical community, the whole situation became a talking point. The ex-husband had loudly declared that his former wife was barren, yet here she was having one child after another, three in total, with her new husband. Meanwhile, the ex-husband remarried, and again there were no children. One day the ex-husband and his former wife met at a gathering. During a casual conversation, as people who once knew each other, she told him directly that he was raising a child who was not his. She told him that he had no capacity to father a child and that if he finally went for tests, he would discover the truth. She reminded him how he had insulted her and her parents, and how he had refused to listen. The revelation shook him. He went for tests, and it was confirmed that he was the problem. He had spent seventeen years looking after a child who was not his. The moral of the story is simple, and I always stress this when mentoring young people. When in doubt, check. In fact, even without doubt, check. A DNA test at birth saves you from future heartbreak. Many men are raising children who are not theirs. Some women know exactly what they are doing. Others genuinely do not know because their relationships overlapped before they settled down. In those cases, even the woman cannot be sure who the father is. So when you have a child, get a DNA test. If you ask for one and a woman becomes defensive or resistant, that is a major red flag. At that point, the test is no longer optional, it is necessary. That is the reality of life today. As they say, trust is beautiful, but DNA is confirmation. In this life we live, hope is not a strategy when it comes to your children, so test your child and protect your future, as the saying goes. I have DNA stories that I could share for a whole year. If compulsory DNA testing was demanded of all of us today, you will be shocked by what will come out. This brother in the video is now going through denial. He has been told the truth, but he is still in shock, which is why he is asking for silly things from this woman. It is hard for any man to discover that the child he believed was his belongs to another man. That is why DNA testing is a necessity and why it should be compulsory.

Is it true that when Saudi Crown Prince MBS lent his personal plane to Imran Khan for his trip to the U.S., Imran Khan and his team made critical remarks about MBS that were overheard by the Saudis, prompting MBS to take back his plane? If so, this perfectly encapsulates Imran Khan’s diplomatic record. From his provocative, offensive, and hollow speech against India’s Modi on occupied Kashmir at the UNGA, where he sounded more like a jihadi leader addressing a jirga in Waziristan than a statesman addressing the global leaders, to his suicidal attempt to form a "new Islamic bloc" with Turkey, Malaysia, and Iran, as well as his ill-advised comments about the Taliban after the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, Imran Khan consistently failed to justify his position or leverage opportunities effectively. While I have no doubt that Imran Khan is the best option for the people of Pakistan, he lacked the diplomatic finesse needed to carve out a role for himself on the global stage. It's such a shame that a cricketing legend and a former prime minister of a country has no friends to support him today. If not for the efforts of overseas Pakistanis, you wouldn't be seeing the little attention he gets from American and some British politicians. I wish, as a prime minister, Imran Khan was advised by educated and intelligent people who helped him establish himself as a world leader, not surrounded by emotional idiots who sent him to interviews unprepared, turned every interaction with the international press a PR disaster, sent him to Russia on the day Putin brutally invaded Ukraine, and asked him to walk barefoot in Madina like an ignorant, overly emotional person. Worse, they facilitated the mismanagement of priceless, personalized gifts he received from foreign leaders at Toshakhana, selling them and tarnishing his reputation and relationships. I hope that if and when Imran Khan gets another chance, he has a better team and conducts himself as a more effective leader, not just for his people, but on the global stage.

President Zelenskyy: Ukraine did not choose this war and it's wrong to assume that this is a permanent arrangement that others can stay safe behind Ukraine forever. Ukrainians are people, not terminators. That is why we are doing everything to stop this war and to guarantee security. But the problem is this. Putin is no longer interested in anything else. Putin does not live like ordinary people. He doesn't walk the streets. You will not see him in a cafe. Putin consults more with Tsar Peter and Empress Catherine about territorial gains than with any living person about real, real life. Can you imagine Putin without war? Be honest. Right now his focus is on Ukraine and no one in Ukraine believes he will ever let our people go. But he will not let other European nations go either because he cannot let go of the very idea of war. He may see himself as a Tsar but in reality he is a slave to war.

Bro, Take Retirement. These Are Hypocrites. Nothing Will Change by Playing County Cricket 😭 You can check the stats: - No one is better than him in Tests. - No one is better than him in ODIs. - No one is better than him in T20Is. Yet he continues to be completely ignored. 😥 Gautam Gambhir says players should be backed and given a long rope, but he forgets his own words when it comes to Kuldeep Yadav. If Kuldeep had been playing for any other team, he would have been a permanent member of the playing XI in 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘀. But in India, his career has been ruined. He has always been treated like a disposable player. Whenever something goes right or wrong, Kuldeep is the first one to be dropped. My suggestion: either retire from international cricket and play franchise leagues around the world, or move to another country. At least you'll get a fair opportunity and the respect you deserve. 🙏

Andrei Tarkovsky on Ingmar Bergman's Shame (1968): "Let us look at Bergman's Shame. The film doesn't contain a single 'actor's piece' for the performer to 'give away' the director's purpose, to play the conception of the persona, his attitude to it, to assess it in relation to the overall idea; and the latter is entirely hidden within the dynamic of the characters' lives, at one with it. The people in the film are crushed by circumstances; they act only in accordance with their situation, to which they themselves are subordinate; they make no attempt to proffer us any idea, any perspective on what is happening, or to draw any conclusion. All of that is left to the film as a whole, to the director's vision. And how superbly it is accomplished! You cannot say in simple terms who amongst them is good or bad. I could never say that von Sydow is a bad man. They are all partly good and partly bad, each in his own way. No judgements are passed, because there is no hint of tendentiousness in any of the actors, and the circumstances of the film are used by the director to explore the human possibilities which they test, and not for a moment in order to illustrate a thesis. Max von Sydow's character is developed with masterly power. He is a very good man; a musician; kind and sensitive. It turns out that he is a coward. But by no means every bold man is a good human being, and cowards are not always scoundrels. Of course, he is weak and irresolute. His wife is far stronger than he, so much so that she can overcome her fear. The hero lacks that strength. He is tormented by his own weakness, vulnerability, lack of resilience; he tries to hide, to cower in a corner, not to see and not to hear; and he does this like a child, naively and with complete sincerity. But when circumstances nevertheless force him to defend himself, he instantly turns into a scoundrel. He loses all that was best in him; but the drama and absurdity of his situation is that as he is now he becomes necessary to his wife, who, in her turn, looks to him for protection and succour instead of despising him as she always had. When he beats her about the face and says 'Get out!' she goes crawling after him. There is something here of the age-old idea of passive good and active evil; but its expression is immensely complex. At the beginning of the film the hero cannot even kill a chicken, but as soon as he has found a way of defending himself he becomes a cruel cynic. He has something of Hamlet: my view is that the Prince of Denmark perishes not as a result of the duel, when he dies physically, but immediately after the 'rat' scene, when he understands how irreversible are those laws of life which have forced him, a man of humanity and intellect, to act like the inferior people who inhabit Elsinore. Von Sydow is now a sinister character, afraid of nothing: he kills; will not raise a finger to save his fellows; pursues only his own interests. The point is that you have to be a person of great integrity to feel fear in the face of the foul necessity to kill and humiliate. And by shedding that fear and apparently acquiring courage, a person in fact loses his spiritual strength and intellectual honesty and parts from his innocence. War is the obvious catalyst for the cruel, anti-human elements in people. Bergman uses the war in this film exactly as he uses the heroine's illness in Through a Glass Darkly: to explore his view of man." — "Sculpting in Time" by Andrei Tarkovsky (translated by Kitty Hunter-Blair, 1987)

$In the hush of the storm, when shadows stretch long and the world whispers fear, be still. Let your soul settle like a leaf on quiet water, anchored not by the chaos around you, but by the One who spoke the seas into silence. “Be still, and know that I am God.” These words are not a suggestion—they are a stronghold. Even when evil snarls at your door, when injustice rages and the night feels endless, trust in Him with all your heart. Not a fraction. Not a backup plan. All. Lean not on the fragile scaffolding of your own understanding, but on the unshakable faithfulness of the One who turns graves into gardens, mourning into morning. Be still. Not passive. Not defeated. Stillness here is surrendered strength—a defiant act of faith that says, “I will not be moved, because my God is already moving.” The battle is not yours to win in frenzy. It is His to win in glory. So rest. Breathe. Trust. He is near. He is enough. And in His stillness, you will find your peace. Happy Sunday everyone. ☀️$

These were the days when the world not only had respect for a U.S. president, they loved him as much as America did. His representation of his country on the world stage was NEVER viewed as it is by a man now viewed as the global village idiot. His name appears ZERO times in the Epstein files. He never needed to praise himself once, name a road or a building after him. He never sued the DOJ or filed malicious law suits against those who disagreed with or criticised him, because real men can take criticism. He didn’t pretend to have a healthcare plan, he passed one into law. He never mocked disabled people or asked not to be seen with service members who had lost limbs in service of this nation, neither did he call those who fought and died for this nation ‘suckers and losers’ He won an ACTUAL Nobel Peace Prize and didn’t have to make up numbers for how many people attended his inauguration. He needed no monuments to his presidency because he had absolutely nothing to prove. He served his nation with honour dignity and respect, the same respect he afforded America’s allies. He did not run an international extortion gang from the Oval Office and certainly didn’t send masked thugs into red state communities to brutalise them in order to instil fear. He rebuilt a broken economy after the housing crash he faced in the year he was elected, handing off a growing economy when he left office in 2016. He never stole money from low and middle income workers to hand tax cuts to the rich, while setting up a crypto bribe pipeline. His speeches will go down in history as rhetorical masterpieces, with joined up coherent sentences and punctuation. He never once felt the need to post an inflammatory vile and disgusting video about ANYONE, because he is a good and honest man, who remains to this day a beloved statesman and a man Donald J Trump will never be, even in a tan suit. 🎥 TikTok -

On the Crisis of Purpose and the Task of the Higher Man It is no longer a secret that the American nation, and the Western world as a whole, lack purpose. But the deeper tragedy is that its people do as well, especially those few among our people who still possess potential, intelligence, or vitality. The state offers them no direction, no loyalty, no telos beyond consumption and compliance. And contrary to outdated assumptions, the best men and women are not thriving quietly in stable careers or respectable homes. They are vanishing. They are atomized, childless, estranged from nature, surrounded by lies, and increasingly aware, if only inarticulately, that the world around them is not made for them and will not preserve them. The old template—attend a university, launch a profession, raise a family, find comfort in upward mobility—has collapsed. Fewer than four in ten college students today are White men. Of those who attend, many graduate into institutions openly hostile to their existence. Fewer still enter professions that offer continuity, respect, or meaning. The rest drift into precarious labor, pornography, escapism, and digital sedation. Depression, anxiety, addiction, and suicide are no longer marginal phenomena. They define the psychological condition of the White male under liberal empire. The situation for women is no better. Modern White women have been told they owe their ancestors nothing, that their bodies are not for children but for display, that motherhood is a form of slavery and that promiscuity is empowerment. The result is not happiness but collapse. Fertility rates among White women have plummeted far below replacement. Marriage has been delayed past its biological window. The majority will not have children at all. Those who do are often alone, unsupported, or bound to men unfit for fatherhood. And yet, behind the veneer of trite feminist slogans, many feel a deeper ache—a recognition that the trajectory of their lives is neither natural nor good. What both sexes lack is not merely opportunity. It is meaning. They are not oppressed by circumstance, but abandoned by a dying order. There is no structure around them that calls them upward, no vision that commands their loyalty, no myth that binds them to a higher fate. They are told that they are free, but it is the freedom of the deracinated: unclaimed, unwanted, and unnecessary. This is why suicide is highest among young White men. This is why antidepressants are now routine in the lives of so many White women. This is why birthrates collapse, institutions corrode, and nihilism spreads. The problem is not only political. It is racial, and thus civilizational. The world in which our people now live was not built by them, does not speak to them, and no longer requires their existence. They feel this. And so they withdraw, first from ambition, then from community, then from life itself. And yet, this despair, when properly understood, is a symptom of something deeper: a spiritual instinct that the present order is false. It is not merely a psychological disorder or social frustration. It is a recognition, vague in many, lucid in a few, that the world around them has no place for them because it has no future. That insight, if acted upon, can become a source of strength. For it reveals the true task: not to integrate into a dying system, but to transcend it. Not to seek purpose in careers, credentials, or commodities, but to root one's life in the eternal struggle of the race to ascend, to rise from man to higher man, from animal to spirit, from chaos to order, from dust to form. Man is not an isolated particle. He is a cell within a race, a race within a species, a species within the living order of the cosmos. His dignity lies not in comfort but in contribution to the upward movement of life itself. Life is not static. It strives. It evolves. It shapes itself toward higher expression. And that same movement exists within us. The task of the individual is to discover that direction and to align with it. To coordinate his finite energies with the infinite striving of life itself. This has been articulated by the best minds of our tradition, especially by Nietzsche. More than any other, he grasped the evolutionary logic of life as ascent. In Thus Spoke Zarathustra, he wrote, “What is ape to man? A laughing-stock or a painful embarrassment. And man shall be just that for the Übermensch.” For Nietzsche, man is not the culmination of life, but its transition—an arch between what was and what must come. The value of life is found not in conservation, but in overcoming. Not in maintaining weakness, but in refining strength. “You have made your way from worm to man,” he continues, “and much within you is still worm.” It is not enough merely to exist. One must transcend. The man who understands this no longer seeks fulfillment through comfort, recognition, or acquisition. He seeks to become a vessel of transformation, a conduit of racial and civilizational continuity. The career becomes a means. The home becomes a redoubt. The body becomes a weapon. The family becomes a biological transmission of character and blood. Nothing is pursued for its own sake. All things are oriented to service. One of the few who sensed this obligation in modern language was George Bernard Shaw, who wrote, “This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one.” He called that purpose the Life Force. Others have called it Destiny, Order, or God. But the content is the same: the forward drive of life toward higher form, higher intelligence, higher power. The young man who sees clearly still studies. He still sharpens his mind and his body. But he does so not for approval, nor even for security, but for preparedness. He builds a career if it allows him leverage. He builds a home if it offers ground. He marries not to escape loneliness, but to secure continuity. His existence is not accidental. It is martial. His goals are not hedonic. They are reproductive, cultural, and strategic. The woman who finds clarity walks a narrower path still. She rejects the cult of pleasure, of indulgence, of synthetic liberation. She sees that her function is not to sample, but to select. Not to amuse, but to create. She does not seek to feel like a mother. She becomes one. Her children are not accessories. They are her offering. She measures herself not by indulgence, but by discipline. Her worth is not in beauty, but in what her beauty attracts and what her soul passes on. Their paths will not be easy. The currents of this age are against them. Some will fail. Others will falter. But those who succeed will know what it means to live with purpose. They will not drift. They will not decay. They will form a core, bound not by sentiment but by truth. Not by dogma but by blood. Not by fashion but by destiny. This is the beginning of a new aristocracy—defined not by inherited title or idle privilege, but by spirit, discipline, and duty. Alfred Baeumler, writing in the shadow of Nietzsche, understood that the measure of man is not in comfort but in struggle. Even in an age without gods, he affirmed, the task remains: to will form against formlessness, to stand as a principle of order amid decay. Where metaphysics fall silent, race and spirit must speak. The future belongs to the few who understand that comfort is a lie, that equality is inversion, and that man’s worth lies in service to what transcends him. Those who seek only to survive will not endure. Those who live to build will leave something behind. Among the ruins, some will awaken. They will act. They will choose discipline over indulgence, honor over expedience, continuity over distraction. They will breed, fight, teach, and remember. They will not die like cattle, but live like founders. They will build for a future they may never see, and in doing so, make their lives worthy of remembrance. Their blood will survive. Their spirit will endure. Their children will rise. And through them, the West shall be reborn.

‼️UNSCRIPTED: Shedeur Sanders and the Rise They Never Saw Coming … There are athletes who play the game and then there are figures who shift culture. Shedeur Sanders has become the latter. Not because the world cleared a path for him, but because he rose above everything they said he could not overcome. From the moment his name surfaced in NFL conversations, critics formed their narratives. He is not ready. He cannot read an NFL playbook. He does not have the arm talent. He will not start this season. He will sit behind veterans. He will fold under pressure. They buried him on depth charts that were never meant to define him. But here is the biblical pattern. Every chosen leader is underestimated before they are elevated. Every David is measured by the armor he does not wear. Every Joseph is counted out before he steps into his palace. Every Daniel is doubted until he survives what should have destroyed him. And even Jesus walked through wilderness before walking into purpose. Shedeur’s journey mirrors that same divine blueprint. He did not rise because the critics supported him. He rose in spite of them. He rose above projections. He rose above narratives. He rose above the low expectations placed on him by people who never studied his preparation. And just like David he did not need public approval to prove he was ready. He just needed a moment. A moment to step into the pocket. A moment to command the huddle. A moment to show he can read defenses, manipulate safeties, extend plays, and deliver throws critics said he could not make. When God appoints someone no amount of opposition can block the assignment. Critics can predict it. Analysts can dismiss it. Experts can misunderstand it. But they cannot stop it. God has a history of taking what people overlook and turning it into what the world cannot ignore.

Donald J. #Trump targets #PopeLeo XIV—and in doing so, reveals a deeper unease. When political power turns against a moral voice, it is often because it cannot contain it. Trump does not argue with Leo; he implores him to return to a language he can control. But the Pope speaks another language, one that cannot be reduced to the grammar of force, security, or national interest. In this sense, the attack is a declaration of impotence. Unable to absorb that voice, power tries to delegitimize it. Yet in doing so, it implicitly acknowledges its weight. If Leo were irrelevant, he would not deserve a word. Instead, he is invoked, named, opposed—a sign that his words matter. This is where the Church’s moral force emerges. Not as a counter-power, but as a space in which power is judged by a standard it does not control. Leo does not respond on the terrain of polemics, and for that very reason remains beyond its grasp. He is free. And that freedom—unarmed and disarming—is perhaps what most unsettles. And, at the same time, what matters most.

Team IWC got a fortune opportunity to meet with our leader and mentor Rahul Gandhi ✨ This meeting was like a divine calling just at the right time when our team was stepping on new goals and territories.

He beautifully demonstrated and articulated how important it was to first care for ourselves first, mentally, physically, emotionally and psychologically. We are now a formidable force of fiercely fearless individuals who will work towards a fearless and a secure India. What he did for us is also that he reiterated our faith in the fact as to why we choose to be led by him. He is not just our leader but he’s a YUGPURUSH and the world will soon know this. India With Congress shall always be #IWCWithRahulGandhi Long live he who showed India that light of Love, Hope and Courage at the darkest times of Indian History and Politics.

🇵🇰 "THEY ARE TRYING TO BREAK HIM, BUT IMRAN KHAN WILL NOT BREAK - TYRANNY IS NOT AN OPTION" Imran Khan’s sister, Aleema Khan, describes a level of fear and uncertainty that goes far beyond politics. Rumors were spreading outside the prison that something might have happened to Imran Khan while he was being kept in isolation. Aleema explains that these rumors didn’t come out of nowhere. She says people close to the situation believe the isolation, the silence, and the controlled information around Khan could be a “test run”: a way to see how the public reacts if something truly dangerous happens to him. She also describes violent treatment of her own family, including their 71-year-old sister being dragged by the police, and how the authorities allegedly used AI-generated fake videos to smear them. For Aleema, none of this feels random. She says this is what happens when a government tries to intimidate a political movement while avoiding accountability, and that the people of Pakistan are growing angrier, not more afraid. "They are trying to break him, but he will not break. My brother says tyranny is not a sustainable model, eventually people rise up. The only name he has ever mentioned is Asim Munir, and that is not the entire military. They used AI deepfakes of me and my sister to frame a false narrative. When they attack women like this, it does not sit well with the people of Pakistan." PTI, Aleema Khanum

The future encounter between Mark Grayson and Immortal is a quiet but deeply unsettling moment. Mark travels into the future with one goal—to kill Immortal and stop a dark timeline from continuing—but what he finds is far from the powerful leader he once knew. The world around them feels empty and worn down, reflecting the state of Immortal himself. When Mark finally meets him, Immortal is no longer stable or composed. Centuries of living have taken a toll on his mind. He appears confused, almost fragile, weighed down by endless time and the loss of everyone he has ever known. Instead of attacking, Immortal begins to speak in a way that immediately shifts the tension. He looks at Mark with a strange sense of recognition and curiosity, as if searching for answers. He starts talking about his condition—not as a power, but as a sickness. To him, immortality has become something unbearable, something that has slowly destroyed his sense of self. He asks Mark if he has found a cure… not for death, but for his sickness. The question carries a quiet desperation. Immortal is not afraid to die; instead, he seems to welcome the idea of it. What he truly wants is relief from the endless burden of living. His words reveal a man who is mentally exhausted, someone who has lived far beyond what any mind can handle. For Mark, the moment becomes more than a mission. He is forced to face the reality of what Immortal has become—a broken version of a hero, and possibly a glimpse of what unchecked time and power could do to him as well.

We strongly condemn the reported attempt to stop El-Rufai’s wife from giving him food while he remains in custody. No matter the politics, no matter the allegation, no matter who is involved, this kind of treatment is unacceptable in any democracy that claims to respect human dignity. Anti-corruption agencies are not punishment centres. ICPC is not a torture chamber. Detention is not a licence to humiliate suspects, punish families, or turn investigation into psychological intimidation. Even when a man is under investigation, he remains a human being. He remains a citizen. He remains entitled to dignity, welfare, access to lawyers, and fair treatment. Let it be clear: nobody is asking that El-Rufai should be above the law. If there is evidence against him, charge him properly. If there is a case, prosecute him openly. If there are questions to answer, let him answer them before a competent court. But denying or restricting basic access to family support, especially food, creates the impression that this is no longer just investigation. It begins to look like vengeance. This is how institutions lose public trust. When agencies behave with emotion instead of procedure, Nigerians stop seeing justice and start seeing political persecution. The rule of law is not tested by how government treats its friends. It is tested by how government treats its critics, opponents, and those it disagrees with. Today, the target is El-Rufai. Tomorrow, it can be any Nigerian whose politics offends those in power. That is why this must be condemned now, loudly and clearly. ICPC must explain what is happening. The government must respect due process. Charge him, release him, or treat him strictly within the limits of the law. A government that uses custody to break people is not fighting corruption. It is abusing power.

We strongly condemn the reported attempt to stop El-Rufai’s wife from giving him food while he remains in custody. No matter the politics, no matter the allegation, no matter who is involved, this kind of treatment is unacceptable in any democracy that claims to respect human dignity. Anti-corruption agencies are not punishment centres. ICPC is not a torture chamber. Detention is not a licence to humiliate suspects, punish families, or turn investigation into psychological intimidation. Even when a man is under investigation, he remains a human being. He remains a citizen. He remains entitled to dignity, welfare, access to lawyers, and fair treatment. Let it be clear: nobody is asking that El-Rufai should be above the law. If there is evidence against him, charge him properly. If there is a case, prosecute him openly. If there are questions to answer, let him answer them before a competent court. But denying or restricting basic access to family support, especially food, creates the impression that this is no longer just investigation. It begins to look like vengeance. This is how institutions lose public trust. When agencies behave with emotion instead of procedure, Nigerians stop seeing justice and start seeing political persecution. The rule of law is not tested by how government treats its friends. It is tested by how government treats its critics, opponents, and those it disagrees with. Today, the target is El-Rufai. Tomorrow, it can be any Nigerian whose politics offends those in power. That is why this must be condemned now, loudly and clearly. ICPC must explain what is happening. The government must respect due process. Charge him, release him, or treat him strictly within the limits of the law. A government that uses custody to break people is not fighting corruption. It is abusing power.
