Asked about reports of a $300 billion reconstruction fund for Iran and whether Gulf countries, including Saudi Arabia, would contribute to it, Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan says Iran’s recent attacks on Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states have resulted in a “significant loss of trust” in Tehran and that trust would need to be rebuilt before economic cooperation could take place.

New "superman" Four months later, Shanghai-based Matrix Robotics unveiled the Matrix-3--yet another anthropomorphic humanoid robot situated on the left side of the "Uncanny Valley." Unlike Boston Dynamics' Atlas, which is designed for industrial settings, the Matrix-3 is a general-purpose humanoid robot intended initially for service-oriented environments such as supermarkets, hotels, and office buildings. Standing 1.7 meters tall and weighing 65 kilograms, the adult-sized robot features a full-body covering of biomimetic fabric integrated with tactile sensors, as well as humanoid biomimetic muscles. It employs linear joints rather than the mainstream rotary joints. Matrix claims it is capable of pulling or pushing a load of 200 kg. Optimus makes extensive use of linear joints (linear actuators). It is equipped with dexterous hands offering 27 DOF and boasts a battery life of 4 hours. The robot is powered by a model named WAVE(like an E2E World Action Model) Matrix states that it has already established a manufacturing facility in Shanghai's Zhangjiang with an annual production capacity of 10,000 units. The company plans to deliver 1,000 units this year, with the first batch scheduled for delivery by the end of June. Pricing starts at $99,000. Notably, Matrix founder Zhang Haixing previously served as a leader at Tesla China's Design and Research Center, where he was deeply involved in the early-stage R&D and design of the Optimus robot. This company seems to be delivering on the future envisioned for Optimus.

The oil and energy flows from the Gulf will NOT return to normal now that the war on Iran is over: Industry estimates for repairing Gulf energy infrastructure now range from $25 billion to over $58 billion, equipment shortages could cause supply-chain disruptions that persist for years. Globally critical energy facilities such as Qatar’s Ras Laffan suffered significant damage from Iranian strikes, with repairs on heavily damaged liquefaction equipment estimated to take between 1-3 years. Iran’s infrastructure on its side of the South Pars gas field suffered heavy damage from Israeli strikes, with full restoration of damaged infrastructure expected to take 6-18 months. There will be delay for this economic damage to be felt globally, but the world will suffer the consequences of Trump’s and Netanyahu’s daft war for months and perhaps years to come.

#WATCH | Washington DC, US | "We have actually seen a steady change in the pattern of dependence on certain weapon suppliers. Historically, yes, we were major suppliers of Russian equipment. We still need a lot of Russian spare parts, and so on. But it's come down a lot from the peak. The comparison I would give you is Pakistan, where 81 per cent of their weapon systems and imports are from China. We don't have that kind of dependence. We've diversified. We have American weaponry, and we are very much in the market for more. Whatever the Americans are prepared to discuss with us to sell us, we certainly hope we'll move forward...," says Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, demolishing the agenda that India is overly dependent on one country for its armaments needs.

What if we could RECREATE the REFLECTION of the FLASH seen in the GLASS during the Charlie Kirk assassination? Literally recreate it on site. The timing of the flash seen in the reflection of the glass is what makes it so interesting. What else would cause a flash that bright in the middle of the day? This could at least determine a lot of good information and confirm or deny theories that are out there. Just to get an idea of where the FLASH came from, which could identify a possible shooter or 2nd shooter location. The reason I say this is because it lines up perfectly with the sound of the gun, meaning you see the flash first, then you hear the shot, which would make sense because light travels faster than sound. This way we could get an idea of where it came from in the first place and determine if it's a good lead or not and then check the crowd or building locations. It could be recreated with a camera flash or something with bright enough lumens. This could clear up at least one theory or confirm it and lead us in the right direction of where the shooter could have been. Please comment with your thoughts and ideas. We need to get someone out there to the location with the Proper equipment. At least we could confirm or deny some theories. Video in bottom left shows the flash.

📽️ From October 12, 2023: Professor Rashid Khalidi spoke about the urgent need for a unified Palestinian political strategy amid the fallout from October 7. He warned that without long-term goals, clear messaging, and national unity, Palestinians would lose global support. “The ANC didn’t win just because they fought on the ground… They won because what they were trying to do was something they could make clear to the world,” he said. Citing lessons from Algeria, Ireland, and South Africa, Khalidi called for a strategy that’s “translatable and explicable to the world.” “We don’t have that right now, That’s one reason we are in the mess that we’re in.” Catch Professor Khalidi live tomorrow at 9:30 a.m. ET on Drop Site News as we revisit his 2023 warning — and ask where the struggle for Palestinian political unity and direction stands today.

Jeremy Boreing says firing Candace Owens was morally necessary and admits he wishes he had done it sooner. "We terminated Candace Owens, which I feel like was a moral important thing to do and important for the health of the conservative movement more broadly." "10/10 times I would have fired her again, 9/10 times I would have fired her two months earlier." "I had misgivings about Candace when we hired her, but on the whole I believe that she was and would continue to be a force for good. I believe that we could successfully help her trend in a positive direction." "I believed and still believe that she has the most star power of any person I've ever met. That's after 20 years in Hollywood. I mean, I've met giant movie stars. Candace has more of it than any other personality I've ever encountered." "So in retrospect, is it a mistake that I hired her? Sure, because of the way it played out, but I still would have hired her, you know, 7/10 do overs."

Front page story in Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. Frankfurter Allgemeine correspondent Stefan Locke visited a DTEK power plant hit by recent strikes, where workers are working in -18 degrees Celcius, clearing debris, salvaging equipment and restarting units after one of the most significant attacks in months. His reporting captures what our engineers face: restarting operations for the 60th time since the full-scale invasion began, whilst knowing the next strike could come at any moment. "We try to save what can be saved," says Volodymyr, 27 years at the plant, standing beside colleagues who've repaired the same plexiglass windows three or four times over.

Everything Elon said about Optimus at the All-In Summit today: • We’re finalizing the design of Optimus v3. That release is going to be a very remarkable robot. It will have manual dexterity comparable to a human, meaning a very complex hand, an AI mind that can navigate and comprehend reality, and will be made in very high volume. • Other robotics companies are missing those three very hard things. • I spend more mental cycles on Optimus than any other single thing. Solving real-world AI, all of the electrical-mechanical issues, the supply chain, and production challenges. • There is no supply chain for humanoid robots, so it has to be created from scratch, which requires a lot of vertical integration. None of the actuators in Optimus are available from an existing supply chain. • I think if successful, Optimus would be the biggest product ever. • The marginal cost of production, once we hit a million units per year, will probably be around $20,000. It depends on how much we spend on the AI chip in the robot, and we’ll need to achieve a lot of efficiencies in the actuators—26 actuators per arm (26 motors, gearboxes, and power electronics). The AI chip might cost $5,000 or $6,000, maybe more. At 1 million units a year, production cost will be $20,000, maybe $25,000. Price will be a function of demand. • Human hands have evolved to be incredibly sophisticated machines. Hands are a very first instrument. You can swing a baseball bat, thread a needle, play a piano or violin, and assemble a car. Hands are incredibly versatile instruments. Most of the muscles of the hands are actually in the forearm, and the hand is almost like a puppet. Human tendon evolution is incredibly good. The human hand has 27 or 28 degrees of freedom, depending on how you count it; it’s amazing. • In order to create a robot that can be a generalized humanoid, you must solve the “hands problem.” • Even though there are 10,000 to 20,000 electric motors out there, we couldn’t buy the actuators for any amount of money. We had to design every electric motor, gearbox, and controlling electronics from scratch, from first principles of physics. • Optimus is harder than developing any previous Tesla product, but not harder than Starship. • Right now, we’re struggling with the final design of the hardware, primarily the hand. The hands and forearm are the majority of the engineering difficulty of the entire robot. • If you want to do all the things that a human can do, it turns out you need a humanoid robot. If you want to do a subset, that’s much easier. Humans evolved to the shape and capability that we have for a good reason. There is value to having four fingers and a thumb; even the pinky is quite useful. Toes are much more of a question mark. • The AI5 inference chip will be 40 times better than AI4 by some measures. We know the limiting factors of the chip because the AI software and hardware teams work so closely. Effectively, the Tesla AI hardware and software teams are co-designing the chip. • The Softmax function on AI4 takes 40 steps in emulation mode, which will take only a few steps in AI5 natively. AI5 will easily handle mixed precision. • In terms of nominal raw compute, the AI5 inference chip has 8 times more compute, 9 times more memory, and 5 times more memory bandwidth compared to AI4. Because we’re addressing some core limitations and optimizations at the silicon level, we’re able to realize 40x improvements.

Aaron Siri sued the CDC with one simple demand: Show us the studies that allegedly prove vaccines do not cause autism. Their answer will shock you: “40 to 70% of parents who have a child with autism report that they believe vaccines cause their child’s autism.” “When you ask them what vaccines you think cause your child’s autism, they’ll say the vaccines given in the first six months of life.” “On behalf of ICANN … we sent a Freedom of Information Act request, FOIA request to the CDC.” “We said, your website says vaccines do not cause autism. Please give us the studies that show that Hep B vaccines given three times in the first six months of life do not cause autism.” “Please give us the studies that show that DTaP vaccine given three times in the first six months of life do not cause autism.” “Same thing for IPV vaccine, for PCV vaccine, and for HIV vaccine.” “Each one of those vaccines is given three times each in the first six months of life. 15 injections.” “They never gave us the studies.” “I sued them in the Southern District of New York.” “Days before the hearing, I get a list of 20 studies, finally, from the DOJ, because they represent the CDC.” “19 of them have nothing to do with the vaccines given in the first six months of life.” “They were all either MMR studies or studies of an ingredient that wasn’t in those vaccines.” “One of them was an Institute of Medicine [study] from 2012 that canvassed all the literature on whether DTaP vaccine does or does not cause autism.” “The Institute of Medicine … said, we can only find one study on DTaP and autism.” “And in fact it showed an association between [the] DTaP vaccine and autism.” “But the IOM threw it out because they said there’s no unvaccinated control in it.” “When their back was to the wall, they had nothing.” “There are no studies.” “They could not produce one that showed the vaccines given in the first six months of life do not cause autism.” “Here’s the thing they left out: there is one study out there regarding Hep B vaccines and autism.” “It’s from Gallagher and Goodman out of the University of Stony Brook.” “And it showed that kids that got Hep B vaccine versus those that did in the first month of life had three times the rate of autism.” Joe Rogan Aaron Siri

AUTISM – Jen Psaki (Jen Psaki) says, "RFK Jr. is an Anti-Vax Crank—And He Stands to Make Millions from It." She walks viewers through the now-discredited study that falsely claimed a connection between vaccines and autism, stating:"Let’s be abundantly clear: The data is absolutely clear on this issue. It’s clear thanks to decades of studies based on data from hundreds of thousands of patients. But despite that broad scientific consensus, RFK Jr. has for years been one of the most prominent anti-vaccine advocates in the world, and he continues to push the repeatedly debunked claim that vaccines can cause autism… If confirmed, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. not only stands to endanger millions of Americans with his conspiracy theories, he could also make a lot of money doing it. He isn’t the first snake oil salesman to prey on people’s worries—Lord knows that. But he would be the first anti-vax crank to do so as the head of America’s health system."

.John Coogan says the recent reporting on Meta's 'tokenmaxxing' is less of a sign of bad incentives at the company, and more of a tell about its potential strategy for more vertical integration: "I think it makes clearer the strategy with MSL. Because it's clear that they're spending hundreds of millions of dollars on this, just for internal code-gen tooling — like, running their business." "They are going to spend an inordinate amount of money on frontier inference, and so [by] training a model there, they will be able to amortize the training cost of the next model they build not just over, 'Can they get a product out that goes viral and becomes its own standalone chat app that people pay for.'" "Just on the internal usage, they could be running a multi-billion-dollar token bill that they would have to pay another lab. And so if they develop that internally, it's pure vertical integration." "And then you also have everything that's happening on the actual ad targeting and content delivery side..." "The big question has been like, 'Is Meta going to be able to launch an entirely new AI product like Vibes or something like that?'" "And this is a data point that, to me, says they don't need to. Because just from a pure vertical integration [perspective], the investment in MSL can pencil out."

.John Coogan says the recent reporting on Meta's 'tokenmaxxing' is less of a sign of bad incentives at the company, and more of a tell about its potential strategy for more vertical integration: "I think it makes clearer the strategy with MSL. Because it's clear that they're spending hundreds of millions of dollars on this, just for internal code-gen tooling — like, running their business." "They are going to spend an inordinate amount of money on frontier inference, and so [by] training a model there, they will be able to amortize the training cost of the next model they build not just over, 'Can they get a product out that goes viral and becomes its own standalone chat app that people pay for.'" "Just on the internal usage, they could be running a multi-billion-dollar token bill that they would have to pay another lab. And so if they develop that internally, it's pure vertical integration." "And then you also have everything that's happening on the actual ad targeting and content delivery side..." "The big question has been like, 'Is Meta going to be able to launch an entirely new AI product like Vibes or something like that?'" "And this is a data point that, to me, says they don't need to.

Polo G says he’s been sober and a vegan for seven months. On Monday (Dec. 1), the rapper appeared on a livestream with DDG and revealed the change in his lifestyle. He shared that he hasn’t drank or smoked in that time. “I fuck with it,” Polo says of being vegan. “It feel different, though. Like my homies, I get around my homies and they still eat meat and they be trolling me... I I feel like I need to have [a chef] ’cause it ain’t that many places that cater the vegan food.” The Chicago rhymer says his mind is “way clear” and he has more control than he had before. “I just process my thoughts better,” he shared. He’s also working out daily, focusing on cardio-based routines to get his wind up.

🚨BREAKING: CONSERVATIVE FIREBRAND SCOTT PRESLER TO STORM WA STATE TO PUSH FOR ELECTION INTEGRITY Scott Presler, the unstoppable force behind Donald J Trump's 2024 landslide victories in battleground states, just dropped a bombshell announcement that he is packing his bags and heading to Washington State to launch a signature blitz for Initiative Measure IL26-126, which would require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote and could lead to the cancellation of registrations for those unable to provide it, "Washington's been a playground for the radical left's voter fraud factory for too long," Presler stated in his announcement on X. "I'm coming to fight – and we're going to WIN!" The initiative, filed by the Washington State Republican Party in 2025, seeks to align state law with federal requirements but has drawn criticism from groups like the League of Women Voters, progressive organizations, and Democratic-leaning commentators. The League of Women Voters allege that the initiative would "disenfranchise a significant number of persons who are legally eligible to cast a ballot" by creating barriers for those without immediate access to citizenship documents. Northwest Progressive Institute call the initiative an "enthusiastic Trump backer" effort by GOP Chair Jim Walsh that's unnecessary and harmful to voter access. Presler, who is gay, co-founded and chaired Gays for Trump and founded and now leads Early Vote Action, has focused on voter registration, turnout, and grassroots mobilization for Republican causes throughout the US. To qualify for the November 2026 ballot, the initiative needs approximately 418,000 valid signatures by July 2026. Video Source: ThePersistence

Another royal expert, Jennie Bond on BBC this morning, claiming to remove Andrew from the line of succession is a "quick" & "simple" process Utter rot The UK Parliament CANNOT act unilaterally We share our monarch with 14 other realms (Canada, Australia, NZ etc.) Under the Statute of Westminster 1931, any change to the succession requires UNANIMOUS consent of all the realms. Each of these 14 independent nations would need to consent to the change. For big states like Canada, this requires new legislation to pass through their Parliaments. For smaller states, this requires formal consent. Securing this is a mamoth task - the last attempt took 11 months - and one which carries significant risks. For example: * debating Andrew and the succession would lead to a renewed push by republicans around the Commonwealth to call for their country to abolish the Monarchy * 1 or more Caribbean nations could require slavery & colonialism reparations as a condition for agreeing to the change * risk of harmful amendments etc. Andrew is 8th in the line of succession and he is far older than the other 7. There is zero chance he will succeed to the throne. (The film "King Ralph" was fiction not fact! Ditto "Kind Hearts Coronets".) Andrew has been stripped of all honours. Removing him from the line of succession would achieve nothing but could bring untold trouble. This is a waste of Parliament's time. If further steps must be taken, Parliament could formally strip Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor of his peerage titles (although he no longer uses them, he remains legally Duke of York (HG not HRH), Earl of Inverness, and Baron Killyleagh Time to abandon this idea. Devoting time to the line of succession seems to be a distraction technique by the Government to divert attention away from other issues (eg Mandelson). Me on GB News:

A finance expert just detailed a GENIUS strategy President Trump might be working on to fix the National Debt using Gold. "Word on the streets is that President Trump's going to issue gold-backed treasuries..." "If Trump revalues gold to market value or even a higher price, which he can, then the Federal Reserve is required to print money... The US government has already done this before, and gold revaluation does not require congressional approval. So President Trump can do this, like literally, whenever he wants." "Word on the street is that it would be most logical to revalue gold at $15,000 a troy ounce. That would give the government $4 trillion just free and clear. That's $4 trillion less of U.S. Treasury bonds that they would need to sell, and Trump could use that money to fuel his initiatives. And he can even use some of that money to pay down the national debt, claiming that he delivered on his campaign promise." "So whatever Trump's going to do with gold, people are expecting him to go really big next year."

We continue to plan for a likely Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) beginning on March 14th around 2 p.m., impacting around 18,000 customers in Boulder and Jefferson counties. Weather conditions are expected to start improving between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. on March 14, though high winds that may create wildfire risk and cause outages are expected to continue through the weekend. Please note, due to anticipated high winds, outages could take place outside of areas impacted by a PSPS, impacting restoration times. Restoring outages from a significant weather event or PSPS may take several hours to several days. This is because crews must inspect power lines and repair damage before they can be safely re-energized. Prepare for potential outages now, especially if you use medical equipment that requires electricity. To learn more about the evolving situation, visit
