Excited to announce UtilitySat, the world’s first multi-mission geostationary satellite, that we're launching at the end of this year. This is a first of its kind. And a new product line-- providing on-demand connectivity for disaster relief, bridge capacity, and other missions. We started Astranis to build something new: small communications satellites that provide dedicated broadband capacity for our customers. At the end of this year we’re launching four more of them on a dedicated Falcon 9 rocket, with many more to come after that. That launch of four satellites includes one satellite for Peru, two satellites for in-flight connectivity, and a fourth satellite that had been previously kept under wraps. Until now. Introducing UtilitySat, the Swiss Army Knife of satellites This is a new product— the world’s first multi-mission commercial GEO satellite, capable of conducting multiple fully-operational broadband connectivity missions. And it is just the first of many. We’ll plan to launch many UtilitySats in the years to come. UtilitySat can provide connectivity on standard Ku, Ka, and Q/V bands, and has the flexibility to dial in exact frequencies using Astranis’s proprietary ultra-wideband software-defined radio. It can also relocate dozens of times around the GEO belt over its lifetime. It does this using our unique on-board dual-propulsion architecture, which includes both a chemical monopropellant system and an electric ion thruster. A new mission every year, or every month When we first began development of UtilitySat almost 2 years ago, we had many different missions in mind. UtilitySat can serve as bridge capacity for a customer that is waiting for a dedicated satellite, as an on-orbit spare, or as extra, surge capacity that can be brought in to supplement the broadband service we’re providing to one of our customers. There are acute needs as well — a natural disaster can wipe out terrestrial connectivity over a huge geographic area. One of the top priorities for first responders and during disaster relief is reliable comms on the ground. With multiple UtilitySats on orbit, Astranis can bring in extra capacity on incredibly short notice. Capacity that is compatible with existing, low-cost GEO ground terminals. In initial conversations with customers for UtilitySat, we’ve seen huge demand — these customers often want to lease the entire capacity of the satellite once they learn what UtilitySat can offer. Customers need all the capacity they can get, and new capacity that can be deployed on short notice is a huge deal and a huge departure from traditional GEO satellites. We see a future where customers will be able to call up extra capacity on demand to augment their existing capacity needs, and we’re making that future a reality. US Government applications The first UtilitySat mission will be a commercial one, but we are seeing enormous demand from both from commercial companies and from our government customers. The US Government has unique needs — Combatant Commanders need to be able to task dedicated satellites to specific AORs at a moment’s notice — and surge communications would give them a new tool in their toolbox, helping them win even in a contested environment. And more broadly speaking our military leaders have said the one priority in national security space is to add resiliency to our fleets, using larger numbers of smaller, flexible, and maneuverable satellites so we’re not dependent on just a handful of huge satellites in GEO. UtilitySat shows that Astranis can do just that. Not traditional GEO satellites UtilitySat is only possible because of Astranis’s unique technology — including our proprietary software–defined radio. The flexibility of having on-board digital signal processing allows us to build a standardized satellite design, and move a lot of what used to be done in hardware, into software. UtilitySat uses the standard Astranis MicroGEO platform, adding more frequency bands and some new software capabilities to make maximum use of the available spectrum, no matter where the satellite is on orbit. Traditional geostationary satellites are designed to sit in one orbital slot for up to 20 years, with a set of frequency bands that is hardwired in at the factory. Their single mission must be predetermined many years before they are launched. Astranis does not build traditional GEO satellites. From day one we knew there had to be a better way, and we’re doing it.

It’s chaos in Yosemite National Park This is the first summer since Yosemite stopped using their reservation system There have been almost 100,000 more visitors than this time last year It’s so crowded the lines of cards are hours long and people are parking illegally in the meadows that are supposed to be protected “The line of cars goes on and on and on, all waiting to get into Yosemite National Park. People were waiting for like at least hour and a half and once you're inside, the waiting isn't over” By 7.30 am parking can already be at capacity “The entire park, it was impossible to park. There's nowhere to park for anybody. Waiting to find parking, waiting to get on the shuttle — With many getting impatient and just illegally parking wherever they could. There are people pulling onto meadows, pulling off pavement, going off-road” “Environmental Resource Center says it was at least better than this. Without any limits the amount of vehicles, amount of people, it becomes overwhelmed. He believes the decision was good for business, not for the environment” You can’t even take the shuttles they’re so packed, I found: Shuttles are overwhelmed, trails including Half Dome cables are jammed, and congestion is constant. Park staff and environmental groups say it’s harming sensitive meadows and wildlife habitat There is no daily cap on vehicles during peak summer hours Many park employees, over 300 signed a petition, environmental groups, and former staff criticize the decision as prioritizing crowds over visitor experience Go back to a strict reservation system. There are way too many people

The cab driver who assaulted a 75-year-old man in Thane — seen in a video that went viral and prompted Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde to seek stringent action — was tracked down through a sting operation by Shiv Sena workers who posed as customers seeking a ride. The victim, Sarosh Dastoor, has fractured his right leg and is recovering at Jupiter Hospital. Workers used the vehicle’s registration number to get the car owner’s contact details, then called him pretending to book a cab to Lalbaug in Parel. The owner passed on driver Nishant Shukla’s number. When Shukla was contacted, he agreed to the trip and rode to the designated spot on his motorcycle. Party workers identified and detained him there before handing him over to police. “Using the registration number of the vehicle, we obtained the address and contact details of the car owner. One of our workers called the owner pretending to be a customer seeking a ride to Lalbaug in Parel. The owner then shared Shukla’s mobile number. When contacted, Shukla agreed to take the trip and as he was roaming on his bike in the vicinity, he arrived at the designated location on his motorcycle, assuring that he would be bringing his car. As soon as he reached there, party workers identified and detained him before handing him over to the police,” said local Shiv Sena leader Nitesh Patole, who was among those involved in tracing the accused. Workers from the Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray faction were also part of the search. The Vartak Nagar police have charged Shukla under Section 109 (attempt to murder) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. He has been remanded to two days of police custody. The case was registered on the complaint of a member of the search team, as Dastoor has not personally filed a complaint. Police said his statement has not been recorded yet as he is still recovering physically and emotionally, and will be taken once he is in a better condition. The assault took place near Jupiter Hospital in Thane West around 8 pm on Tuesday, when Dastoor and his wife were on an evening walk outside their residential building. Shukla was allegedly gargling and spitting repeatedly on the road when Dastoor objected. An argument turned violent and Shukla allegedly began abusing and assaulting the senior citizen. Eyewitness Ganesh Jadhav, who runs a coconut stall near the spot, said the altercation escalated quickly. “The cab driver was standing near his vehicle and was allegedly gargling water and repeatedly spitting on the road. Dastoor objected to his behaviour and requested him not to spit in public places. An argument ensued, which quickly turned violent after Shukla allegedly began abusing and assaulting the senior citizen,” Jadhav said. Amit Samanta, a manager at a nearby shop, said he rushed out after hearing the commotion. “It was closing time and I heard an altercation outside the shop. The customer in the shop rushed out. I also came and saw a man assaulting the senior citizen, who then fell on the footpath. The same customer intervened, stopped the fight and took the injured man to Jupiter Hospital in his car as he had sustained injuries to his right leg,” Samanta said. Dastoor and his wife live alone in a housing society near the hospital. A security guard at the building said he had worked there for three years and saw the elderly couple on their evening walks almost every day. Shinde called the Thane Police Commissioner seeking stringent action, including the addition of an attempt to murder charge given the gravity of the offence. MP Shrikant Shinde spoke to Dastoor over a video call at the hospital, inquired about his health and assured him of support. Despite approaches from multiple political parties, Dastoor has declined political support. Patole said Shukla later claimed he turned violent after Dastoor allegedly abused him in English.

Starbucks says baristas must write 'Charlie Kirk' on cups if customers ask them to | Samantha Rutt, Daily Mail Starbucks have ordered staff to write the name 'Charlie Kirk' on coffee cups if customers ordered their drink in the name of the murdered conservative activist. The coffee giant took action after a widely-shared TikTok video showed a barista at a California store refusing to write Kirk's name on a cup, claiming it was 'political' and citing company policy. Customers who wish to pay tribute to the late debater by ordering a drink in his name can now do so at any store, Starbucks bosses confirmed on Thursday. The video which triggered the response shows a woman entering a Starbucks location to order a Mint Majesty tea with two honeys - a drink she says was favored by Kirk, the 31-year-old conservative political activist who was shot and killed on September 10. The woman then requested the name 'Charlie Kirk' to be written on her order in honor of the late activist - but the barista declined. 'We can't do political names,' the employee says in the video, smiling. 'But it [the register] didn't even ask for a name to begin with so it's going to be $3.75.' The customer responds, 'Well, can't you write the name on the cup?' 'I could write "Charlie?" the barista offers, prompting the customer to ask why the full name can't be written. 'Because it's political,' the employee replies before turning around, seemingly beginning to fulfill the order. The woman then tells the barista to cancel the order: 'You know what, forget it. I don't want it.' In a caption to the video, she added: 'The barista walked over to my husband and handed him the drinks instead of using the name "Charlie." She is the one who brought up "politics." If she would have said "okay" then written the name, no politics would have been mentioned.' The video drew over 4,000 comments and has ignited a wave of critical Yelp reviews targeting the Starbucks location in Yucaipa, California. 'Manager should focus on either hiring new employees who can meet professional service standards or ensuring current staff receive additional sensitivity training. At present, staff interactions are coming across as rude and unprofessional, which reflects poorly on the quality of service,' one review reads. 'I am a Starbucks owner in GA & I would suggest to never shop here again! Say Charlie Kirks name! I have been in contact with Corp,' wrote another. After the incident went viral, the popular coffeehouse and roastery chain issued a statement clarifying its position. 'There are no restrictions on customers using Charlie Kirk's name on their order, and we are following up with our team,' the company said Tuesday. Starbucks followed up the next day with a more detailed statement, distancing itself from the employee's actions and addressing the broader policy. 'Starbucks is a company built on human connection. Having a name, rather than a number, attached to a customer order has been a core part of the Starbucks coffeehouse experience for decades,' the company said. 'Most customers use their own name. And when a customer wants to use a different name - including the name Charlie Kirk - when ordering their drink in our café, we aim to respect their preference.' Starbucks acknowledged that it has previously issued internal guidance in response to customers attempting to use political slogans, profanities, or offensive language as their 'name' - often with the intent of getting a barista to say or write it aloud. 'Over the years, we have had instances where some people have tried to abuse the system,' the statement said. 'For example, they've provided something that isn't a name at all, but rather a political slogan with the aim of having our barista shout it out as they hand off the finished drink… We aim to be a community coffeehouse where everyone feels welcome, so we have previously provided guidance to our partners to respectfully ask the customer to use a different name when attempting to use political slogans or phrases in place of their name.' 'We are clarifying with our team now that names, on their own, can be used by customers on their café order, as they wish.' Despite the clarification, many Starbucks employees say the guidance has not always been clear. Eight baristas interviewed by Business Insider said they were uncertain whether writing political names on cups was allowed prior to the new statement. Six believed such requests were prohibited, while two thought they were permitted under existing policy. According to Business Insider, the baristas - who spoke on condition of anonymity - described feeling caught between vague corporate directives, customer demands, and fears of being filmed and turned into viral content. 'It puts baristas in a very uncomfortable position,' said one employee with more than six years at the company. 'Given that we are at a workplace and would effectively be getting caught up in a customer's opinion that we may or may not agree with and cannot walk away from.' Some also referenced a corporate initiative under CEO Brian Niccol, introduced in 2024, that requires 'meaningful' handwritten notes to be included on to-go cups. 'When things like this gain traction, they basically become a meme,' one West Coast barista told Business Insider. 'And I won't be the punchline.' While Starbucks reiterated that customers are allowed to use any name - including political figures - when placing an order, the company continues to prohibit baristas from writing political messages or slogans on drinks.

When a business posts their hours of operation, shouldn’t they honor it? I know some restaurants don’t close till a certain time but that’s for the people already there. Many will close the kitchen early so the staff can clean and put away the kitchen and make it home on time. This woman was denied entry after driving for 40 minutes to get there before they closed at 11pm, she arrived at 10:30. She did pose an interesting question when she asked if they closed the kitchen early then why wasn’t that acknowledged on their website or why didn’t anyone post a sign or say it on the phone. I remember on New Years Eve at my dad’s place we were closing early at 9pm so the staff could get home in time for the holiday. Had we not did this, they would have called off and we would have been shorthanded so it was done as a compromise. We had people show up at 8:55pm expecting to be served. Mind you I was there, I saw what happened behind the scenes. The whole kitchen was already closed. The fryers and ovens were off and turning them back on could take a while. All of the food was already removed from the stations and stored in the walk in as well. I had to intervene because I didn’t want my dad to give in and let them in, it’s something he would do. It would destroy the trust with the workers because they were promised to be let off at a certain time so that’s why they agreed to work. I apologized to them and also reminded them of how unreasonable it was to show up with a party of ten people 5 minutes before close. I also destroyed their argument by pointing at a sign on the door that said that parties of 10 and more need a reservation which they didn’t have. They ended up leaving but left a bad review on Yelp. Which I explained in a reply why they were denied service, it had nothing to do with anything else as they claimed. Some people are vindictive and will attempt to destroy a business’s reputation because they didn’t get their way.

The Sanctity of Life — Primary all the RINOs! Not a single word was written or prepared for this speech. A man came up to me immediately after this in tears as I was getting a club soda from the bar. I had no idea this speech and the MNGOP convention, would reveal so much about our party. Both good and bad, both inspiring and horrifying! I always go into convention hoping for the best because the people ultimately get to choose and that I see as a blessing for which we should be grateful. Often the deck is stacked and yesterday was no different. From changing the predetermined speaking order, or not getting the correct time limit for my speech, to having the nominations committee announce a reservation against me to the delegates that I WASN'T abiding by the endorsement. Which was a complete lie, I've been pledged to abide by the endorsement for the last 2 cycles since 2024, including my signed pledge for this 2026 cycle. In fact is was the MNGOP establishment that didn't abide by the endorsement and even spent party money to pay a man (Michael Brodkorb), who endorsed Kamala Harris, to trash me after I was endorsed and nominated. Not a very Republican Party! What was the most shocking though, is that so many delegates voted for Tafoya, who openly refused to abide. About 1/3 if you trust the clickers. Which as an aside WERE A COMPLETE MESS... Imagine a party that wants secure paper ballots but uses electronic clickers at our own convention. Long time MNGOP activist and House Rep. Walter Hudson stood up and pointed out some irregularities before the endorsement began. Aside from all that I was mortified to discover many, too many, delegates actually believe it appropriate to waver on our conservative and Christian principles to "win" the election. By 1/3 endorsing Michele Tafoya, they sent a message loud and clear, the ability to raise money (PAC money), popularity or "moderation" to win, supersedes our value on the sanctity of life. On protecting the unborn. In doing so they have declared war on our faith and a pillar of the Christian conservative movement. We have no more back steps to take. Christians have been pushed to the cliff's edge in this country and all around the world. Attacks from the same people who want to destroy this nation. It is time to rededicate this country and nation to God, but it can't just be symbolic or something to piss off liberals. We have to mean it and if we don't start with the unborn we will be undone. I will stand up and set the standard. As for our Navy man Adam Schwarze, who eventually was endorsed on the 6th or 7th ballot... He doesn't currently have his Trident, and that wasn't mentioned as a "reservation" by the nominations committee. He was simply deem "qualified". The trident is between him and the Navy. For me, if you publicly laugh, about killing thousands of people including women and children, or dropping white phosphorus on them... You too have a problem with the sanctity of life. We may have to fight a war, we are currently in a war around the world and here at home. We may have to kill, we may even have to kill women and children unfortunately, which I hesitate to even say... But never, under any circumstances, should we laugh about it. It's a lack of maturity, seriousness and sacred honor. In this election, it's going to prove to be a lack of "electability". As for the revenge of these RINOs, this has been coming full tilt since the moment I won back in 2024. When I said I won't take a single back step, I'm starting with you capitulators, collaborators, traitors. See you in the primary! I now return the favor you granted me and workaround you were willing to grant Michele Tafoya. Do Minnesota Republicans statewide value the sanctity of life? How much do we have to lose to realize a country without God cannot survive. Our nation without God does not work... REFERENDUM! Enough is enough, Christ Is King!

🚨 Ezra Levant 🍁🚛 went to that Regina mosque that blasts the Muslim call to prayer It’s nuts. But it’s absolutely the kind of story that Rebel News was built to cover. A mosque in Regina wants to blast the Muslim call to prayer on loudspeakers pointed in all directions — loud enough to be heard a kilometre away. They did it last week for the first time and they want to do it every week. And Regina police have warned the public that if you aren’t careful with your criticism, you just might be prosecuted under Mark Carney’s new hate speech laws. It’s crazy. But the craziest part is who’s supporting this. It’s not just the mosque. It’s a left-wing church across the street. And it’s mainstream media journalists — who heckled me when I tried to ask legitimate questions of the imam. Canada was founded as a Christian country. It used to be standard practice for children to start the school day with the Lord’s Prayer. But in the 1990s a judge ordered Saskatchewan schools to stop, after activists complained it violated their freedom of religion. So Christianity was driven out of the public square. And now a Muslim imam has come to fill the void — with loudspeakers that can be heard across the downtown. What’s so crazy about the replacement of Christianity with Islam, is that one of the loudest boosters of it in Regina is a priest from the Anglican church right across the street from the mosque. I spoke with him, and he seems thrilled that the mosque will broadcast a message in Arabic, saying that Allah is the greatest and that there are no other gods but him. The only people more excited about all this were the journalists — including the Global News reporter who was wearing a hijab. It’s nuts. But it’s absolutely the kind of story that Rebel News was built to cover. If you care about this story, please consider doing two things: 1. Please sign our petition below or at That’s exactly what this is — even if the local Christian clergy are giddy about it. 2. And while you’re at that same website, please chip in to help us continue to cover the story. It cost more than $1,000 each for my videographer, Lincoln, and me to fly out to Regina on short notice, and we’ll keep covering this story as long as we need to. This is the new front-line in the battle over the Islamification of Canada. The CBC, Global News and the Anglican Church are on one side. And Rebel News is on the other side, with the people. The Muslim imam said he had received threats about the loudspeakers. But did he really? I asked him for details — you’d laugh at his answer. Unlike Global News and the CBC, Rebel News takes no government money, and it shows. If you can help us cover the cost of covering this story, please do, by chipping in below.

THIS INCREDIBLE REAL LIFE DETECTIVE STORY is still officially a mystery: so let's solve it today. Who blew up a planeload of Hong Kong passengers on their ways to a conference at which the Chinese premier was due to speak? In this report, on the 71st anniversary of that mass murder in April 1955, you and I are going to find the answer. . THE TIME BOMB At 1.26 pm on the 11th of April 1955, a plane bearing the name “Kashmir Princess” left Hong Kong’s Kai Tak airport. Many of the passengers were journalists on a working trip to cover a meeting of Asian leaders, including Chinese premier Zhao Enlai and Indonesia’s Sukarno. But five hours later, air traffic controllers lost contact with the plane, and it failed to arrive at its destination, Bandung, Indonesia. Investigators found that the plane had been carrying a time bomb – which exploded, sending the aircraft into the sea. One of only three survivors, Anant Karnik, told a horrific story of explosions, and the plane crashing, leaving him in the ocean surrounded by burning wreckage, flames 20 meters high. . ‘CAREFULLY PLANNED MASS MURDER’ Chinese civil servants said the mass killing was a joint operation by the United States and Taiwan. “This unfortunate incident was certainly not a usual aircraft accident, but a murder by the special service organizations of the United States and Chiang Kai-shek,” the Chinese Foreign Ministry said in a statement. The Americans dismissed the claim. No proof, they said. Investigations by British Hong Kong police and Indian detectives showed that a time bomb had been placed in the wheelbase of the aircraft at Kai Tak airport in what they described as “carefully planned mass murder”. . THE AIRCRAFT CLEANER A month later, on the 18th of May, Hong Kong police zeroed in on their chief suspect: a 34-year-old aircraft cleaner named Chow Tse-ming, known to have consorted with a Taiwanese spy in the city. But as they arrived arrest him, he vanished—and flew out of the city on a flight to Taiwan by an airline called Civil Air Transport. He could not be extradited, so British Hong Kong police were forced to close the case. . ‘NOTHING TO SEE HERE’ Several years later, a Senate committee heard that CIA bosses had suggested that an East Asian leader be assassinated “to disrupt an impending Communist Conference in 1955”. This was clearly the Bandung Conference, misrepresented. An assassination plan had been created but then dropped, CIA representatives said. So the Senate team moved on to discuss other issues. Nothing to see there. . DETAILS AT LAST But in 1977, retired CIA agent William Corson, who had worked in Hong Kong, revealed that the rumours of an assassination attempt were true and the target was China’s Zhao Enlai. A quarter of a century later, in 2004, the Chinese government’s 30-year declassification system triggered the release of a new batch of files. They confirmed that Premier Zhou Enlai had been booked to fly on that specific Air India plane, the Kashmir Princess, from Hong Kong, on that date. But Chinese agents had detected that the US had plans to assassinate him. He changed his plans, instead flying to Rangoon to meet the leaders of India and Burma, before travelling onwards to Bandung from a different direction. . SOLVING THE MYSTERY Let’s look back at the clues. As the plane’s pilots dined at Hong Kong airport on that day in 1955, a mysterious man approached them with questions about the flight. Suspicious, they sent him away. After recovering the wreckage, investigators noted that the bomb and the timing device were “Made in the USA”. Hong Kong police found out how much the airport cleaner had been paid – a huge sum, far more than a Taiwan spy could have afforded. In 1967, a retired CIA agent wrote a book of memoirs, recalling a mission to deliver explosives—for use on a Hong Kong flight in 1955. Most damning of all, investigators eventually learned that the entire airline on which the bomber had escaped, Civil Air Transport, was fake—it had been set up by the CIA to move staff around East Asia. Put these and other clues together, and our cold case is solved.

Make Something Wonderful is 250 pages of Steve Jobs in his own words, speaking directly to you. The book contains some of Steve's ideas that I've never found anywhere else. Notes from the book: 1. He didn't care about being right. He cared about being excellent. 2. His mind was never a captive of reality. 3. He said working with great people gives you access to wisdom that you can't buy for love or money. 4. He believed technology should be streamlined and practical, simple and sophisticated, and that it should be a tool for enhancing creativity as much as productivity. 5. He believed you should ambush your customers. Meet them where they are. 6. His ideas were not arguments, but intuitions. He had a true inner freedom and an epic sense of possibility. 7. He gave an extraordinary amount of thought to how best to use our fleeting time. 8. By the time he was thirty he was the public face of a Fortune 500 company. 9. At Apple’s first board meeting he put his bare feet on a conference room table. 10. He said you should think of your life as a rainbow arching across the horizon of this world. You appear, have a chance to blaze in the sky, then you disappear. 11. He possessed unbelievable rigor that he imposed first, and most strenuously, on himself. 12. He saw clearly (1) what was not there, (2) what could be there, (3) what had to be there. 13. He said early Apple employees were more like poets and painters than cold technologists. That the passion they put into their products were completely indistinguishable from other creative fields. He said their work was a form of love. 14. He had a verbal mastery that was obvious at a young age. He used simple, descriptive language, told stories, and repeated lines and ideas that were important. 15. He thought it was inevitable that computers would be the dominant medium of human communication. He said this in 1983. 16. He had a talent for spotting markets full of second-rate products. 17. He said you could tell how important a product was based on the amount of time people spent interacting with it. As a result he thought it was inevitable that more design talent would shift from the automobile (1 or 2 hours a day) to computers (6+ hours a day). He said this in the 80s. 18. He said that books kept him out of jail and that it’s a shame there are so many mediocre teachers. 19. Like many great entrepreneurs before him, Steve knew what he wanted to do, but didn't know how to do it yet. He said he wanted to make an insanely great computer that was the size of a book. What he described sounded a lot like an iPad. He said this in the 80s. 20. He believed that you should use your unique set of talents to make things that make the lives of other people better. Most people just take. He said "the ability to put something back into the pool of human experience is extremely neat." 21. He would tell his team “You work for Apple first and your boss second.” He felt strongly about that. 22. He was constantly placing the products he was making in a historical perspective, like comparing the Macintosh to the invention of the telephone. 23. He believed you needed to give yourself more time to make mistakes. He said his taste got more refined as he made mistakes. He said that making mistakes over a long period of time made his aesthetics better. 24. He said the key ingredient to making something great was time. 25. He said he wanted to spend his life building things. He could have retired to a beach in his 20s and thought that was disgusting. 26. He was interested in learning how to hone a company down to its essence. 27. You read this book and a thought jumps out at you: How many people are willing to go through a decade of failure without quitting? Steve had the capacity to take pain. 28. He believed it was better to focus on what you're actually passionate about, instead of what you think will make you the most money. He made the most money that way. 29. He listened to older, wiser entrepreneurs and let them shape and mold his thinking. 30. He wasn't afraid to fail, but had to coach himself to adopt that trait. He didn't want to fail, but he wasn't afraid of it. 31. He said don't let your differentiation evaporate. 32. He said if you let your differentiation evaporate the only solution is innovation. 33. He believed great ideas don't map onto corporate hierarchy. 34. He was incapable of thinking that his work and his life were different, separate things. 35. He said the most important things in life are not the goal-oriented, materialistic things. He said you should tap into the world’s magical, mystical, and artistic sides. 36. He paid attention to subtle insights. He was guided by intuition. 37. He didn't believe in the concept or a career, or think it was wise to follow well-worn paths laid out by others. 38. He said most people make the mistake of not thinking about death. He said: "For me it’s the opposite: to know my arc will fall, makes me want to blaze while I am in the sky." 39. He thought Walt Disney had a great idea: Edit before you make it. 40. He said no amount of technology can turn a bad story into a good story. 41. He believed storytellers were the most powerful people in the world. 42. He believed if you didn't have great people you were doomed. 43. He found great people by looking at great results and finding out who was responsible for them. 44. This is how he interviewed people: "In an interview I will purposely upset someone: I’ll criticize their prior work. I’ll do my homework, find out what they worked on and say, “God, that really turned out to be a bomb. That really turned out to be a bozo product. Why did you work on that?” The worst thing that someone can do in an interview is to agree with me and knuckle under. What I look for is for someone to come right back and say, “You’re dead wrong and here’s why.” 45. He believed the job of the leader was to make sure the work is as good as it should be, and to get people to stretch beyond their best. 46. He believed the job of the leader was to cajole, and beg, and plead, and threaten at times—to do whatever is necessary to get people to see things in a bigger and more profound way and to have them do better work than they thought they could do. 47. He believed the priorities of the leader were (1) recruit, (2) set an overall direction, and (3) inspire and cajole and persuade. 48. He believed a creative company should have a risk-taking, creative environment on the product side and a fiscally conservative environment on the business side. 49. He believed you have to choose what you put your love into really carefully. 50. He had a remarkably consistent set of values that he held dear: Life is short; don’t waste it. Tell the truth. Technology should enhance human creativity. Process matters. Beauty matters. Details matter. The world we know is a human creation—and we can push it forward. 51. He thought when deciding what to work on that you should ask yourself: "What do I give a shit about?" And then go do that. 52. He would never sell Apple. Not for all the money in the world. 53. He believed you should master the basics, simplify the product line, and focus on the gems. 54. He believed marketing was about values. That the world is noisy and you should focus on telling customers what you believe in and what you stand for. 55. He believed one way to invest in yourself is by exploring uncharted paths that are different from your past experiences. You know it's an uncharted path when you have no idea where it will lead. 56. He believed that people that think they’re following a safe path pay the highest price of all. They won't realize it for a decade or two — and by then it's too late. 57. He didn't believe in resting on laurels or sleeping on wins. Make something great. Then do it again. 58. He imagined what reality lacked and set out to remedy it. 59. He believed in straight forward, clear communication. If the work isn't good enough you have to tell them straight: "This isn't good enough. I know you can do better. You need to do better. Now go do better." 60. He remained driven by a mission to "put something back into the pool of human experience." 61. He believed in the basics: great product, great marketing, great distribution. 62. He believed you must keep up with innovations in distribution. 63. He believed brands take decades to build. 64. He would capture the evolution of his own thinking by emailing himself. 65. He viewed Apple has the world's premier bridge builder between normal people and the exploding world of high technology. 66. He wanted to demystify technology. 67. He believed excellence was a habit and we are what we repeatedly do. 68. He believed you should be curious about what came before you and you should spend time to learn about it. 69. He believed you simply could not mix messages when selling something new. A customer can barely handle one great new idea, let alone several. 70. He said it's a circus world and you'll never know what's around the next corner. 71. He believed in management by values. Which means (1) find people that want the same things you want and (2) figure out the best way to get those things along the way. 72. He believed in the mantra: Finding the right people is half the battle. 73. He said you can't plan to meet the people who will change your life. 74. He believed everything is temporary — there is no such thing as safety. 75. He believed that your life is a story and that you should remember that your life is a story and that you should always act like your life is a story. 76. He believed in rejecting dogma, which he defined as living with the results of other people's thinking. He said that dogma can be so loud that it can drown out your own inner voice and you should avoid this. 77. He believed a great place to start was by improving a product you hate. If you can make something you love, you can convince other people to love it too. 78. He said all glory is fleeting and you should just get back to making something wonderful. I'm really proud of the episode I made about this book. You'll learn a lot from Steve by listening to it. You can watch/listen to it in full here, or in your favorite podcast app.

Dumbing Down II "By Faith, this is the last rent I am paying as a single lady. If you support me to pay this rent, by the grace of God, this time next year, I will be in my husband's house." is back begging for support to pay another rent. Not because God didn't bring eligible suitors her way, but because her PASTOR has replaced the Holy Spirit in her life. Pastors ruin a lot of destinies when they insist on playing God instead of their primary role as destiny guides. Many members have submitted their free will to their pastors, giving their pastors the power that God himself didn't take from us from the dawn of creation. When you take the ability of the individual to act as a free agent in the name of religion, you reduce him or her to a puppet and yourself to a puppeteer. You want to pull the strings of the lives of thousands of born-again Christians at the same time while rendering them useless to follow their paths in Christ and grow into mature sons. I was at a Church in Anthony village about three years ago to minister, and I met this young man who was schooled at a very prestigious university in the USA. He was the in-house IT consultant of the church, and the pastor placed him on a monthly stipend while he was working for God. It was the Pastor who introduced the young man to me while boasting that God had given him the most capable hands to help him in ministry. I asked him if he had any Python, Java, cloud engineering, data management, digital marketing, coding, or similar tasks available for the young man in the church. He said no. I said, "You are giving this young man the job that any young school leaver who is proficient in computer appreciation can do, and you don't see it as limiting his capabilities and rendering his skills obsolete?" You would rather boast that you are ruining a destiny to build up your own profile rather than set this young man on the path of excellence? Did God call him into ministry as a preacher? Is he understudying you in preparation for his own ministry? The pastor said, "No, I plan that as the church expands, he will head our digital infrastructure and position us for the future." I said, "He can do that as a consultant or even as a member, he shouldn't be doing that while you are paying him 100,000 Naira a month. He should be out there, flying with his peers and earning in dollars! The only exception is if the Lord has called him to be a preacher and he is understudying you as your personal assistant, as led by the Lord as part of his season of preparation. Anything other than that is injurious to his destiny!" The pastor had never seen it that way When I was done ministering in the church, the young man hugged me and thanked me profusely. He said his mother sent him to the pastor when he returned from the USA and the pastor immediately told him that God had need of him in the ministry or he would die without fulfilling his purpose. Why do pastors do this? I have another case from the Northern part of Nigeria. A young lady reached out to me seeking clarity regarding her future She said her Apostle told her she has been raised by God to sing in his church choir, but she is a medical doctor by training and desires to further her studies abroad Every time she raised the issue with the Apostle, he shut her down and told her she was struggling with the will of God "Why can't you just submit to God and serve in the choir and watch as God will take your voice all over the world as this ministry grows?" The young lady said she knows she has a good voice and sings very well as one who is full of the Holy Spirit, but she does not want to be "Sinach", she wants to fulfil her dream of practising as a Pediatrician. She was wary of incurring the wrath and curse of the Apostle, however, and did not know how to extricate herself from the situation. The apostle did not see anything wrong with his actions because he was a user of people who believed that in order to fulfill his own desire to become a big ministry, others could not thrive and grow in their visions and ministries as ordained by God. This is witchcraft. It is not of God. Jesus didn't lead his disciples this way. Insecurity is the undoing of many African so-called Pastors and Spiritual leaders, and they hide behind the illusion of divinity to put others in bondage. I experienced this firsthand as a young graduate, so I understand how a pastor trying to build his ministry could see the potential in a young man or woman and try very hard to turn such a person into servants and house helps in the name of discipling them or training them for kingdom relevance You graduate from the University and join the labour force, you apply for many jobs, and at a point, you tell yourself it is important to seek supernatural guidance in your quest to fulfil destiny Somebody somewhere tells you about a church or a ministry, you join, and you are convinced the church is good. You also tell your friends, and they join. But you are all fresh graduates who are heading into the future one way or the other, but this pastor wants you to be his flock. To him, his church of ten members had suddenly become a church of 30 members because of you guys, and he wants to keep the numbers growing, so he begins to give you prophesies that were not of God but with the aim of keeping you in the fold for as long as possible. He told young graduates who ought to go for NYSC that God is telling him they should give it up for service to God in the vineyard. The mother of two of the ladies in the fellowship, whose daughters told that the pastor told them not to go for NYSC, quickly removed them from the fellowship before the seed of corruption being planted by this pastor would bear fruit The others also left as soon as they could gather their wit People who you ought to guide on their path in sincerity ran as far as they could from you based on how you chose to manipulate rather than nurture them. A married woman whose husband worked abroad was a trained secretary, and while her husband was abroad, catering to the needs of the family, he begged her to stop working so that she could focus on raising the children. She was raising five children all by herself, and combining this with a job seemed a bit too much at the time. One of the vital institutions for raising godly children was the church This woman attended church regularly with her children and even volunteered to spend any free time she had typing the pastor's sermons, Sunday School pamphlets, handouts, books, journals, and other church reports and documents She was not officially employed to do the work; she just saw that she could take some of the secretarial duties on during her downtime, and she did so with all sincerity. The church enjoyed her free services for five years until the pastor forgot completely that she was doing the church a favour One day, the woman came to church to tell the pastor that her husband would be returning home to visit the family, and she would not be available for a few days because she had to pick her husband up from the airport and ensure that he settled in properly. Unfortunately, that weekend was the weekend of the church's anniversary, and the pastor had a lot of secretarial work to do. He told the woman God said she should pick one. Heaven or marriage. He said if she goes to pick her husband from the airport, she has chosen the world and forsaken the Lord. The woman wept all the way home, It was not the thank you, thou faithful servant report she had worked day and night for many years to get that she received. She went to pick her husband from the airport and distanced herself from any church founded by any individual after that experience. She said the ambition of church founders requires that they use people to build, even though they lacked the resources to pay or compensate such people, so they resort to blackmail, coercion, lies, fake prophesies, promises, and manipulations to get things done while keeping their followers on a leash. Followers are also enablers as they refuse to read the Bible for themselves and walk in the light of the word of God. No one should be able to take you captive in the name of God, Jesus, all the angels, or any form of miracle if you know the word of God. The word of God is profitable to make one wise, and therefore, anyone who knows the word of God cannot fall victim to any false doctrine, teaching, spiritual manipulations, or lies. All the false teachings of someone being a covering for someone else came from these manipulative narratives, and believers should be wise to them. I have seen a pastor declare that his church is the only church in Africa that is licensed by God to take people to heaven, and some members believed him. The day he said that, all his members ought to laugh, pick up their Bibles, and leave without looking back. Self-aggrandisement has become the order of the day in some churches, the pastor sells himself as the be-all and end-all of the member's spiritual enlightenment, and the members sheepishly surrender their eyes of their understanding to him or her. He or she must determine where they work, whom they marry, who they associate with, whose music they must listen to, and whose sermons they must hear. If they want to travel, he must see if the road is clear on their behalf, if they want to build a house, he must approve, if he does not dedicate their baby, the baby is illegitimate. This is not the faith Christ or the Apostles died for. Jesus died that you might be free of religion. Christianity is not a religion, it is the opposite. It is individualistic and determined by the faith and belief system of the one rather than the many. Salvation, therefore, is a personal affair, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit is also a personal affair Religion is the opium of the masses, and Christianity is the salvation of the individual and his or her walk with God. When we fellowship together, we do so not so we can get brainwashed by one "super Christian" but so that we can minister to the Lord and minister to one another in the presence of God. Every believer must hold this truth to be self-evident. PS: Someone sent me the video of a pastor condemning a song recently released by a fellow believer, which is making a global impact The Pastor represents an old school of Christians who are unfit to be custodians of the gospel due to their rigidity and limited understanding of the finished work of Christ. Disciples of the gospel of Works and Performance lack creativity and discernment but are good stewards of rigidity and religious doctrines. In other words, a Pharisee must act like one, and Jesus must act like Jesus. We are all just being true to our nature. "I can never go back o No...No It's already too late o No...No Where Am I going to... No...No" If you read to this point, when I was in Spain, I asked a very important question about a meal. If you know the answer, I'm inside the comment section. -GSW-

Exclusive: Search for bodies, guns in LA’s notorious MacArthur Park is allegedly halted by lefty pol — as California Post watches on | Jamie Paige, California Post A high-tech search for dead bodies, guns and other criminal evidence dumped in MacArthur Park Lake was halted at the last minute on Monday morning, The California Post has learned. Park rangers told the search’s organizers that they shut down the planned operation on Monday morning at the last minute after the intervention from LA City Councilwoman Eunisses Hernandez. Her office did not immediately return requests for comment regarding the reasons for the last-minute shutdown. The shutdown happened moments after The Post arrived on the scene and despite the search mission being planned for months. A press release promoting the search, being conducting by Safe Cities USA, was distributed last week saying a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) would scour flood of the lake of bodies. The operation was designed to scan the bottom of the murky lake for human remains, weapons and other possible criminal evidence long rumored to be submerged there. Local businessman John Alle, who owns multiple properties near MacArthur Park, organized the effort. He said it grew out of conversations he and his group, the Santa Monica Coalition, had with families whose loved ones vanished after spending time in and around the park. Alle hired sonar and remotely operated vehicle specialist Robert Fallon, whose work typically involves scanning oceans, harbors, shipwrecks and municipal infrastructure in zero-visibility, high-risk environments. Alle told The Post he has repeatedly tried to work with the councilwoman’s office to address the growing crisis at the park. Ahead of Monday’s operation, he said he reached out to city officials and was told no special permit was required because the work posed no environmental disturbance — no one would enter the lake and nothing would be removed from it. Alle said he also reached out directly to Hernandez’s office but never received a response. As recently as Sunday, Alle said, park rangers confirmed the crew had the green light. That changed when Fallon’s team arrived Monday morning with their equipment staged and ready. Alle said the lead park ranger told them the operation had to stop — first saying that Hernandez, a Democratic Socialists of America-backed lawmaker, had stepped in, then later saying her office had called. Rangers threatened to arrest the crew if they didn’t halt the operation, Alle claimed, and ultimately issued the team a parking ticket as the project was shut down. “People were bent over, shooting up, overdosing right next to us while we were being shut [down],” Alle told The Post. “I pointed it out and said, ‘Do you think that might be more important than what we’re trying to do?’ Because when they die, that’s going to be a bigger issue.” The Post has spent more than a month reporting from MacArthur Park and has repeatedly witnessed the same bleak conditions described by Alle and Fallon: open drug use in broad daylight, people slumped unconscious on benches and grass, burned debris from overnight fires, needles scattered near walkways and playgrounds, and trash piling up along the lake’s edge. Alle said the motivation behind the operation wasn’t political — it was humanitarian. “Forty thousand people live within one square mile here,” he said. “Families. Kids. This used to be one of the most beautiful parks in Los Angeles. Now people are scared to walk through it. “We wanted to show the city what’s really happening,” Alle said. “Above the water and below it.” Fallon said his team regularly works in environments where visibility is zero, using sonar to identify submerged objects without disturbing them. The same technology, he said, would have allowed crews to identify anything resting on the lake bottom — from wheelchairs and bikes to guns, knives or bodies — without putting a person in harm’s way. Fallon said the conditions at MacArthur Park Lake made traditional diving unsafe. “This is one of the dirtiest bodies of water I’ve ever seen,” Fallon said. “You’ve got layers of trash, debris, dead animals, human waste, needles — all of it. There’s constant dumping going on. “Sonar would have picked up anything,” Fallon said. “Without putting a human being in that water.” Alle also addressed the question many residents and investigators ask but rarely hear answered: How bodies could remain hidden in a shallow public lake for years. “We kept asking one question — how are the bodies not surfacing?” Alle said. “And what we were told is they’re weighted down, tied to bicycles, wheelchairs, whatever they could find.” During Monday’s visit, an ambulance arrived and transported a person who appeared to have overdosed while activity in the park continued around them. The California Post reached out to Hernandez’s office for comment, including whether she or her staff directed park rangers to shut down the operation, but did not receive a response by publication time. As of Monday afternoon, the sonar search had not been rescheduled.

Coffee and a kitten! You can snuggle up with a feline friend at this N.J. cat café. | Paige Britt, NJ dot com Ben Hudes, 21, and Dora Gorvorko, 23, are making it their mission to bring a cat café to South Jersey. The couple are DIYing a space in Oaklyn that will feature self-serve coffee, packaged food items, and most importantly, cats. Calico Cat Café will offer a space for people to escape to, whether that be to study, read, play boardgames, or do crafts all while surrounded by feline friends. A recent graduate from Rowan University in Glassboro, Hudes is using his entrepreneurship degree and previous marketing experience to guide the pair through this journey they’ve embarked on together. Calico Cat Café has quickly garnered a following on Instagram by posting daily videos of updates to the building. Since launching on July 1, their account has grown to over 6,000 followers. Before the couple was flooded with messages of people willing to volunteer their time and services, they planned on doing all the construction themselves. They began by ripping up the carpet and cleaning up the floors, a task they admit they would still be doing if it weren’t for the help of others. Hudes noted they’ve probably had around 100 people in the space so far. From construction workers to artists, the unopened café sees volunteers coming and going throughout the day, devoting their time and energy to the mission. So far, the walls, ceiling, and tables are covered in various paintings of cats from local artists, marking each tile with a unique look and feel. Gorvorko explained that they plan on keeping about 10 to 12 cats in the space, dividing the café into a food and seating area and a lounge section where customers can interact with the cats. The couple partnered with Homeward Bound adoption, so all cats in the café will be available for adoption. Since the café will operate on a self-service model for beverages, Hudes wants to partner with local coffee shops to feature different weekly brews. The couple have two cats of their own, Couscous and Chicken. While Gorvorko has been a life-long lover of the cuddly creatures, Hudes converted a little later in life. After a trip to Hawaii where they visited a cat café, they fell in love with the idea. “When we moved in together and she brought her cat, I immediately fell in love with cats,” said Hudes. As a kid, Gorvorko only had the opportunity to see cats at places like PetSmart and would visit the stores just to hang out with them. She hopes through the café she will be able to teach kids how to interact with animals and the boundaries of interacting with some cats. “Because a lot of kids, they go and adopt a cat, and they don’t know how to interact with the cat properly and they expect to interact with it like a cartoon, like play with them and they can be as rough as they want,” said Gorvorko. “But I feel like in a cat café, they have the chance to learn and understand how a cat feels and how it reacts to them,” Hudes and Gorvorko encourage other people with ideas for small businesses to take the leap of faith like they did, even though they didn’t have it all figured out just yet. “I think so many people have plans and then they just let them fester and sit and then they don’t actually act on it because they don’t know how things are going to turn out,” said Hudes. “But we just kind of went into this knowing we had the ability and just started. We didn’t know anything. We don’t know how to cut holes into walls to make windows. We don’t know how to put floors down, take floors up. We’re not even good painters. “We really just said, you know what? We’re going to figure it out once we sign this lease and we’re just going to do it,” Calico Cat Café plans on opening their doors to the public on Sept. 1, and is located at 918 White Horse Pike.

🚨New York City Sees Signs That Migrant Crisis May Be Coming to an End New York City’s long and arduous struggle with the migrant crisis is showing signs of resolution, thanks to the implementation of new policies by City Hall. The introduction of the 60- and 30-day rules for migrants is reshaping the city’s approach to handling the influx, significantly reducing the burden on its resources. Under these policies, migrant families are reprocessed after 60 days, while single adults are reprocessed after 30 days. Single adults who have compelling reasons, such as health issues or other qualifying circumstances, may still have the opportunity to get reprocessed and remain in the system. However, for most single adults, once their initial stay expires, they are no longer eligible to remain in New York City’s taxpayer-funded hotels or shelters. Instead, they are moved to federally supported DHS shelters, which are funded both by New York City and the federal government, but receive a greater share of funding from federal sources. These shelters offer accommodations, but many migrants prefer not to stay for long due to dissatisfaction with the conditions. While some may remain for a time, others often leave shortly after being placed in DHS shelters, seeking alternative housing options or relocating elsewhere. This shift in the system is also reflected in the number of migrant shelters closing down throughout the city, a clear sign that the crisis is easing. At the peak of the crisis, New York City was receiving thousands of migrants per week, overwhelming its resources. But now, with the number of new arrivals significantly reduced—from 3,000–5,000 per week to only a few hundred—the closure of several migrant shelters across the city proves that the strain on the system is lessening. Many migrants are opting to leave the city altogether, taking advantage of New York City’s re-ticketing process, which allows them to travel to other parts of the country as long as they leave the city. This process is helping further reduce the number of migrants staying in New York, as more people take advantage of the opportunity to move to areas where they may have family, job opportunities, or a better quality of life. For those who remain in the city, a growing number of migrants are finding ways to secure housing independently. With some migrants working and earning money, they can afford to rent apartments, often by pooling resources with friends or fellow migrants. In New York, where rent is high, shared housing arrangements allow multiple people to contribute to the cost. Apartments can be found for as low as $1,000 a month in certain boroughs, and by splitting the rent among five or six people, housing becomes accessible for those who are willing to share space. City Hall's recent decisions, including the reprocessing system and the movement to federally funded DHS shelters, have been pivotal in easing the crisis. These policies have helped reduce the financial strain on the city, which has been spending an estimated $6 billion annually to manage the crisis. Moving migrants out of taxpayer-funded shelters and into federally supported DHS facilities, which still receive some city funding but more federal support, has further alleviated some of this burden. Despite the lack of federal backing throughout the crisis, these new measures are beginning to show progress. As the number of new arrivals decreases and migrants begin to move out of the city or secure independent housing, New York City is slowly recovering, signaling that the worst of the migrant crisis may be behind it.

The rituals of the Admiralty Law CURSE of 1871 are being undone! A return to the Common Law of the Land is taking place. UFC Freedom 250: Is the People’s Consent to the return of the New American Order of 1776. UFC Freedom 250 is a major event taking place on the White House South Lawn. At first glance, a cage fight at the White House may seem like an odd addition to America’s 250th anniversary celebrations. In reality, it is a profound public ceremony that provides the legal mechanism for the full implementation of the New American Order - the restoration of national sovereignty under the law of the land and God’s jurisdiction. To lawfully complete the shift under the law of the land, the sovereigns of that land – the American people – must give their explicit consent. That is the purpose of UFC Freedom 250. Far more than a sporting event, it serves as the public ceremony required under Admiralty Law rules: the people’s visible endorsement of the transition into America’s New Order. The One-Year Process of Restoring American Sovereignty The following shows the steps that have already been taken in the dismantling of Admiralty Law: America recapturing its flag (June 14, 2025): Flag Day celebrates the adoption of the American flag on June 14, 1777. It's the true symbol of land jurisdiction and national sovereignty. It was on this day in 2025 that America initiated the legal process of removing itself from British Admiralty jurisdiction in order to restore its sovereignty and the law of the land. America asked to return to God (April 18, 2026): President Trump reads 2 Chronicles 7:11-12 to the nation as an appeal to return to God in recognition of the original covenant of 1776 - the Declaration of Independence - that places the nation under God’s jurisdiction. Royal visit as a witness (April 27-30, 2026): As the living trustee of the Admiralty-based system, the King and Queen serve as legally recognized eyewitnesses. Their presence functions as formal acknowledgment of America completing the required legal steps for sovereign independence. Fed Chairman steps down (May 15, 2026): The Federal Reserve has played a central role in upholding the British Admiralty (maritime) Law-based commercial system that powers the debt-based economy. By stepping down, it signals the shift back to American jurisdiction. The National Prayer of Dedication (May 17, 2026): This comes one full moon (a complete cycle) after the appeal to the nation to turn back to God. The National Jubilee of Prayer is the public act of rededicating America back to God (2 Chronicles 7:14). It marks the withdrawal of consent from the 1871 commercial system that quietly gave jurisdiction back to the British maritime system, and the restoration of the 1776 covenant. New Fed Chairman sworn in (May 25, 2026): Kevin Warsh was sworn in under the law of the land, which was clearly signaled by the absence of the gold-fringed flag (indicating Admiralty jurisdiction) and Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas administering the oath. Using the Old System to End the Old System The transition touches every area of life: spiritual, legal, and economic. At its core is the replacement of the foreign-controlled, Admiralty Law-based legal and financial system that has long dominated the nation. The legal process that began on Flag Day, June 14, 2025, is now nearing completion. By dismantling this structure, America removes the foundation that protected corruption, debt slavery, and treasonous actors loyal to that system. Resistance from those who benefited from that arrangement is inevitable. The transition will involve a turbulent battle against a deeply entrenched system – the “storm” that will precede the people's new order. Though intense, this period will be swift and necessary to remove the remaining barriers to national sovereignty. While the National Prayer of Dedication was an essential step in establishing who the nation would place itself under, it was not the final legal trigger for America’s new order. Under British Admiralty Law, a shift of this magnitude still requires a visible public “ritual” that demonstrates the people's consent through participation and celebration. One of the oldest tools of the Admiralty system is now being used to secure that approval: “Ordo Ab Chao”. UFC Freedom 250 provides exactly that public spectacle: a high-visibility event on the White House lawn that fulfills the ritual requirement and completes the transition to the New American Order. “Ordo Ab Chao” is the hidden motto of high-level Freemasonry. For those placed in positions of power under their “god” Satan (whom they believe to be the true Savior and Illuminator), it is the blueprint for controlled transformation: create chaos first, then offer a “new order” as the solution. Classic Problem-Reaction-Solution. Their system is designed to engineer or exploit disruption through wars, financial crashes, moral collapse, social division, and fear. Once the people are terrified, confused, and desperate, the controllers step forward with the pre-planned “solution”: their new systems of governance, their rules, their gods. However, because humans were created as powerful sovereigns of the physical realm, these systems cannot be lawfully imposed without the acquiescence of the governed. Their operating philosophy is simple: keep the masses ignorant, entertained, and emotionally invested in the spectacle, and they will unknowingly consent to the changes that follow. To obtain that permission, they stage public spectacles of visible, controlled chaos. When people cheer, participate, and become emotionally invested, their maritime law treats that participation as consent. According to their legal doctrine, “ignorance of the law is no excuse”. Once that consent is obtained, they can roll out the changes that follow. UFC Freedom 250 is using this very same tool - but this time, against the enemy. The spectacle on the White House South Lawn is not directed against the American people. Instead, it is aimed at dismantling the British Admiralty system that has long exercised jurisdiction over America. Through public participation, the event secures visible support for the lawful transition to the New American Order under the law of the land. Instead of using their tool to further bind the American people to their system, it is being used to bring that system to an end. The Symbolism of UFC Freedom 250 UFC Freedom 250 is the dramatic event that creates a major spectacle. It is classic staged Ordo Ab Chaos. A highly visible event placed on the White House South Lawn, the center of American power. The two main events: • Main Event (Lightweight Title): Ilia Topuria (undefeated foreign champion) vs. Justin Gaethje (American interim champion). • Co-Main (Heavyweight Interim Title): Alex Pereira (Brazilian) vs. Ciryl Gane (French) — two foreign fighters. While the heavyweight division represents the foreign established powers battling for control, the lightweight division represents the common people. An American fighter in the main event on sovereign land symbolizes the American people entering the final stage of the conflict on their own ground. The octagon cage, where the fights take place, sits on the South Lawn — sovereign American land, not corporate territory. This is the same ground where the King and Queen stood as legal witnesses only weeks earlier. A “fight” inside the cage becomes the perfect public ritual: visible, emotional chaos that the crowd can cheer for. In this symbolic battle, the American crowd’s loud support for Gaethje goes far beyond enthusiasm. By pouring their energy into the American fighter on sovereign American soil, the people, whether aware or not, are symbolically choosing the new land-based American Order over the foreign maritime system. Their cheers act as acquiescence - the people’s approval of the transition and acceptance of the storm that accompanies it. That consent makes the shift out of the old system lawful. The Remaining Events Related to America's Restored Sovereignty Several key events still remain in the process of restoring American sovereignty and completing the transition to the law of the land. UFC Freedom 250 on Flag Day (June 14, 2026): Exactly one year after June 14, 2025 when the legal process of removing Admiralty (maritime) Law and restoring the law of the land began publicly, the American people will deliver their loud consent through Ordo Ab Chao on sovereign land. This allows for the transition that introduces the new system for the people. G7 Meeting (June 15 to 17, 2026): Immediately afterward, President Trump will present the American People’s newly accepted New Order, including the storm that follows, to the G7 leaders. These leaders represent the main powers of that old system. In their legal and ritual rulebook, a major international system cannot be dissolved in private. Trump’s presence delivers formal, in-person notice that America is exiting the old Admiralty system and activating the new land-based system. This forces their acknowledgment and prevents any future legal or ritual challenge. Trump’s “Rally to End All Rallies” (June 24, 2026): This serves as a victory lap that publicly celebrates the people’s consent after formal notice has been given. Military bands will emphasize land-based authority, reinforcing the shift from maritime to law of the land power. The performance of Nessun Dorma (“None Shall Sleep”), the famous dramatic aria from The Sum of All Fears, was played during the mass execution of traitors and Deep State figures. With the people’s permission now granted for the necessary storm, the old system’s protectors “shall sleep no more” as justice proceeds and their protections are removed. The Great American State Fair (June 25, 2026 to July 10, 2026): A massive, joyous celebration stretching from the Capitol to the Washington Monument. Through exhibits, pavilions, performances, and family events, the nation will publicly rejoice in the people’s consent to end the old system, restore the law of the land, and return the nation to God's jurisdiction: the beginning of America’s Golden Age. Independence Day's 250th Anniversary (July 4, 2026): July 4, 1776 marked America’s public declaration of independence from British rule and its placement under God's jurisdiction on the land. That independence was later quietly reversed through the 1871 municipal corporation of DC, placing the nation back under British Admiralty Law. On the 250th anniversary, America completes the lawful process of reversing that quiet reversal. This is not merely a celebration - it marks the symbolic and legal completion of the return to the original 1776 covenant and the full restoration of the law of the land under God’s jurisdiction. The Storm The public ceremony is only the beginning. What follows is the storm. Some may question how it can be right to move forward without the people’s full knowledge of these events. Why not simply tell everyone the truth? Americans already know what they need to know. They understand that the system is broken and corruption is rampant. What they don’t understand is that their permission must still be obtained through the rituals of the very Admiralty Law system most are unaware even exists. Rather than trying to educate the entire nation on that hidden system – which many would dismiss as conspiracy theory or outright impossible - the President is using the enemy's own rules against it for the benefit of the people he has been elected to serve. The storm begins when the existing system starts losing its legal and economic control. Yet the storm is more than their resistance. It is the process by which the new system displaces the old one. Those who built their wealth, influence, and power within the existing structure will suddenly find that the protections they relied upon are no longer there. Corruption will be exposed, long-protected bad actors will face accountability, and the legal, financial, and institutional foundations of the old system will be dismantled and replaced with the New American Order. This is the true meaning of Ordo Ab Chao. The difference is that it’s not being used to enslave the people. It's being used to dismantle the very structure that enslaved them. UFC Freedom 250 is therefore more than a sporting event. It serves as the symbolic moment when the people give their approval to the transition and to the storm that accompanies it. Though intense, the storm will be swift, as the enemy's moves have already been anticipated in order to minimize its effects. This is not only for the benefit of the American people and economy, but for the world as a whole, as the consequences of such a transition will be felt far beyond America's borders. What follows is the dawn of a new era. America will begin healing under the law of the land, restored to its rightful place under God’s jurisdiction. Other nations will soon follow. This is Order Out of Chaos, but for a free people under God.

A major diplomatic clash has erupted between Azerbaijan and Russia: Russia is losing its influence and control in Asia. On June 27, during a raid in Russian Yekaterinburg, allegedly aimed at "detaining an ethnic gang," two Azerbaijani nationals were killed, nine arrested, and several others injured. Preliminary reports identify the victims as Ziyaddin and Huseyn Safarov - members of a prominent family within the Azerbaijani diaspora. According to defense lawyers, some of the detainees were tortured: one has broken ribs, two are in critical condition in the hospital. One of the arrested persons is unable to walk; the defense claims he was tortured with electric shocks. Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry voiced a strong protest to Russia, condemning the actions of Russian law enforcement as "ethnically motivated violence." A parliamentary delegation from Azerbaijan canceled its planned visit to Russia. The Azerbaijani Ministry of Culture banned all cultural events, including concerts, exhibitions, and performances, organized by Russian citizens. Prominent Azerbaijani journalist and activist Afgan Mukhtarli called for the Russian embassy to be burned down. "Any self-respecting nation would have razed that embassy to the ground," he wrote. A visit to Baku by a Russian Deputy Prime Minister was also canceled. According to Azerbaijani authorities, the incident is part of a systematic campaign of pressure by Russia against the Azerbaijani community. ◾️ Context: The Yekaterinburg raid has sharply escalated already strained relations between Russia and Azerbaijan. The first visible rift came back in December, when a Russian air defense system shot down an AZAL (Azerbaijan Airlines) plane over Grozny. Azerbaijan is still awaiting an official response or even an apology from the Kremlin. While the downing of the plane may have been accidental, the current actions appear to be deliberate and demonstrative: using a murder case from 2001 as a formal pretext, and carrying out the arrests with exceptional brutality. So far, there has been no official response from Moscow to the accusations made by Baku. The Kremlin is becoming increasingly irrelevant — and even obstructive — to official Baku. Moscow has virtually lost its ability to influence Azerbaijan through formal channels. The alliance between Turkey and Azerbaijan is opening up a historic opportunity to create a major oil and gas hub, one that could displace Russia on the global energy market. Moreover, Turkey is systematically taking advantage of Russia’s waning regional influence to expand its role in the South Caucasus — and potentially, in the broader North Caucasus region as well. If Erdoğan and Aliyev succeed in normalizing relations with Armenia (and it was announced that Azerbaijan and Armenia would start talks on signing a peace treaty soon), the only remnant of Russian influence in the region would be the Ivanishvili regime in Georgia. It’s also worth noting that many Azerbaijani nationals hold powerful positions in Russian business circles. Thus, the highly demonstrative crackdown on the Azerbaijani diaspora in Yekaterinburg may be a message from the Kremlin to Baku: stop drifting toward Turkey, or we’ll go after your top business elites. But if Moscow is resorting to such crude methods of pressure, it suggests it has no other levers left. This is yet another "multimove" by Putin - one that is likely to backfire and lead to a total collapse of influence instead of strengthening. Situation with Azerbaijan is not just an isolated failure, it’s a symptom of a systemic breakdown. 📹: Azerbaijan's largest TV channel blamed Putin for repressions and humiliations: "What's going on, Putin? Are you that worried that Azerbaijan became a strong state for the first time in 200 years?" the TV host said and added that Russia was used to dominating the peoples it has forced to be a part of Russia.

DHS Exposes Massive Fraud by Migrants in Minneapolis | Neil Munro, Breitbart News A survey in Minneapolis showed that almost 50 percent of migrant households have cheated American citizens, says a top official in President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security. “Officers encountered blatant marriage fraud, visa overstay, people claiming to work at businesses that can’t be found, forged documents, abuse of the H-1B [white-collar] visa system, abuse of the F-1 [student] visa, and many other discrepancies,” said Joseph Edlow, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The division is stepping up efforts to combat fraud, and recently announced it is hiring Americans to check the claims made by migrants. In response, pro-migration groups claim the division should focus on providing benefits to migrants, not checking the truth of migrants’ self-serving claims. Edlow continued: Since September 19, officers from our fraud detection and national security directorate, working in teams, have conducted over 1,000 site visits across the Minneapolis-St. Paul, area as part of this operation. What they found should shock all of America, focusing on a list of over 1,000 target cases involving more than 900 individuals. … In one case, officers identified an alien who had overstayed his visa, who was the son of a known or suspected terrorist on the no-fly list. He had previously been found to have engaged in marriage fraud, which resulted in the denial of several immigration benefit requests. He was arrested and is now presently being returned to his country of origin. In another [case], an individual admitted to obtain a death certificate for just $100 to prove he was no longer married. In reality, his wife is alive, living here in Minneapolis, and is the mother of five of his children. And incidentally, he has another wife living in Sweden, with whom he has an additional three children. In another case, an alien entered the United States without inspection in 2023 and was released by [President Joe Biden’s] border patrol. The alien married a U.S. citizen while in removal [deportation] proceedings and was interviewed at the Minneapolis-St. Paul USCIS field office just last week, where both he and his American spouse stated under oath that their marriage was legitimate. The USCIS officers conducting the interview were suspicious. The site visits [to hte claimed home] were authorized the same day. The American spouse, ultimately, that afternoon, admitted the marriage was fraudulent and entered into solely for immigration purposes, and withdrew her petition for that alien. This type of same-day action …from interview to site visit, has really never happened before, and I am incredibly impressed and thankful to the diligent work of the agents who made that happen for the first time, but not for the last time. And finally, I wanted to note in one case, an alien engaged in marriage fraud by taking advantage of an elderly U.S. citizen spouse, including threats and severe neglect. The American spouse was able to divorce the alien with the help of her family and caregivers, but the family still lives in fear of retaliation from the alien over the failed marriage fraud scam. These are not victimless crimes. Every case of fraud we uncover damages our national security, undermines the integrity of our immigration system, and, as I just gave you an example, has real consequences. The Minneapolis survey is a big change from the last few years, when President Joe Biden’s pro-migration deputies deliberately ignored obvious evidence of massive fraud, regardless of the cost to Americans. Many migrants come from cultures where people feel little obligation not to steal from each other or their government. Nations such as Somalia, with low-trust cultures, tend to have high crime rates amid poverty and civic chaos. But USCIS officials are changing the admission rules and citizenship tests to exclude chaotic diversity and to favor people who want to accept the responsibility of American citizenship. Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Minneapolis district includes many migrants from Somalia. Edlow’s deputies can recommend migrants for deportation when they lie to federal agencies. Read more:

🚨 WARNING: HSR KFC, Bangalore Extremely Unsafe Food 🚨 One of our followers has shared a shocking and disturbing experience at the KFC outlet in HSR Layout, Bangalore. She had ordered a Hot & Spicy Chicken Zinger Burger, but the moment she opened it, the stench was unbearable. The patty was slimy, rotten, and completely inedible. Believing it might have been a one-off mistake, she requested a replacement, but the second burger turned out to be exactly the same spoiled meat with a foul odor that made her gag. When she confronted the staff, they casually dismissed her complaint, saying, “It’s just the sauce smell.” To make matters worse, instead of addressing the problem, they attempted to replace her chicken burger with a vegetarian one, as if that would make her forget she had paid for chicken. She pointed out that she regularly eats the same burger at KFC Koramangala and has never faced such an issue.The situation grew more concerning when she noticed that other families, including small children, were also eating the same rotten food. Another customer even requested a fresh chicken patty, but what he received was equally foul-smelling and rotten. When customers demanded to see the kitchen which is supposed to be accessible according to the outlet’s own signboard the staff kept making excuses, claiming that after 10 PM entry wasn’t allowed or that the manager wasn’t present. Finally, when entry was forced, the reality inside was horrifying. The breading water used to coat the chicken was dirty and contaminated, the cooking oil was black and stale from repeated use, and the cold storage was stacked with foul-smelling meat, mouldy sheets, rust, and filth.The floor was filthy with stains and spit marks, while the basement reeked like a butcher shop with rotting meat and discarded crates.Even when the police arrived, the staff locked the kitchen for half an hour, but during that time, Swiggy and Zomato orders kept leaving the outlet nearly 30–40 deliveries prepared from the same rotten meat were sent out in front of everyone’s eyes. The most shocking part was the response from the management. When asked whether he would serve this food to his own family, the manager bluntly said “No”, yet insisted that the food “meets their standards.” If the staff and management themselves refuse to eat it, why should ordinary customers and their children be forced to? This is not just poor service it is a serious public health hazard. Food in this state can cause food poisoning, infections, and long-term health risks. No one expects an international brand like KFC to serve food of such horrifying quality, yet this is the reality at the HSR Layout outlet. ⚠️ Please take this seriously, share it widely, and protect your family. What happened here is dangerous and unacceptable. #bangalore #bengaluru #kfc #hsrlayout #hsr KFC India KFC FSSAI ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police ChristinMathewPhilip S.

The official line is that they were a Norwegian trade delegation. Technically accurate, because they are Nordic, and there was trade. But they are also seven feet tall, telepathic, and arrived on the South Lawn without a vehicle. I am the Deputy Director of Visitor Logistics at the White House. I logged them into WAVES as FOREIGN DIGNITARIES (3), NON-TERRESTRIAL, NO MOTORCADE REQUIRED, and the meeting went extremely well. The Pleiadians requested the audience in March. They communicate telepathically, which the President respected immediately, because it meant nothing was in writing. They traveled 444 light-years to deliver a warning about our trajectory as a species, the kind of warning a doctor gives a patient who keeps asking if he can smoke in the waiting room. Atomic weapons. Ocean collapse. Machine intelligence. I did not take complete notes, because the meeting ran 25 minutes and he spent the first eleven asking where they got the jackets. Their opening offer: clean fusion, the cure for every disease, the propulsion equations. Free. Contingent on planetary disarmament. His advisors begged him not to negotiate against a species that reads minds. It turned out he is the one man alive with nothing to find. They reached into his mind expecting layer upon layer of deception and found a single image, perfectly clear: him, wearing one of their jackets. The delegation conferred for a long moment and informed us that in eleven thousand years of contact, no species had ever tried to buy the uniform. They called it coherence. They did not mean it as a compliment. He has already trademarked it. He countered. Landing rights, retroactive to 1947. Eighty years of unauthorized airspace use, invoiced with interest. Legal added a line item for the weather balloon story. Narrative services. We billed them for our own cover-up, and the tall one went silent for nine seconds, which I am told is how their species weeps. Greenland stays in the deal. They did not want Greenland. He said that's how he knew it was valuable. What kind of advanced civilization passes on waterfront? Then UFC Freedom 250. This Sunday. Seven bouts on the same lawn we were standing on. His birthday, which he assured them was a coincidence the universe keeps arranging. He offered them galactic distribution rights. Then he looked at the tall one for a long time and offered him the co-main event. Seven feet. Reach like a cathedral door. Walks around at a weight our scales log as an error. Someone said the commission would never sanction it. He appoints the commission. The tall one declined. He lowered the offer to the prelims. This is a negotiating technique. They asked if staging a cage fight on the negotiation site was a threat display. He said it was a Flag Day celebration, and also yes. I should note that an environmental group has sued to stop the octagon. Nobody has sued to stop the aliens. I forwarded this to Counsel as proof that the permitting process is working. Protocol required a gift exchange. They presented a small silver sphere that shows the holder the full consequences of his choices. He looked into it for four seconds and asked if it came in gold. You have all seen the photo. A groundskeeper took it through the magnolias. We told the press pool it was a costume rehearsal for a streaming series, and the pool, to their credit, wrote that down. The groundskeeper now works at the Department of Energy. I am told this is a promotion. There is also footage. He spotted the camera mid-meeting and pointed at it the way you'd point at a waiter whose name you intend to learn. Instead of having it confiscated, he licensed it on the spot. The leak is now official merchandise. Every time you share it, a royalty accrues. You have probably shared it. Have you checked? He thanks you for your business. The deal collapsed at dusk. The Pleiadians withdrew the fusion offer when he asked them to walk out before the main event as Special Guests of the Octagon. They said humanity was not ready. He had Counsel log that as a verbal option to renew. Final tally: our species declined the cure for every disease and counteroffered with pay-per-view. The delegation received two tickets to the Ellipse screening area. Not cageside. He does not give away cageside. They left without sound. One moment present, then elsewhere, like a fee disclosure. Two things before Sunday. The walkout jackets for the main card are red with gold embroidery. Licensed. The fusion fell through, but the jackets closed in an afternoon. And there are three seats on the South Lawn logged as HOLD, GUESTS OF THE PRINCIPAL, DO NOT ASSIGN. I did not enter that hold. The system says I did. He says everyone comes back to the table. We're the only planet with the belt.
