One man in the building had something else entirely: a classified engagement that the United... States government kept secret for more than 70 years. Royce Williams is 100 years old. During the Korean War, on November 18, 1952, the Navy pilot engaged a formation of Soviet MiG-15 fighters in a 35-minute dogfight over the Korean peninsula. He 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐣𝐞𝐭 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐫 with battle damage. Because Soviet and American pilots were not supposed to be fighting each other directly, the U.S. government classified the engagement. Williams kept his silence for more than seven decades. He received the Medal of Honor for that flight in February 2026 — some 74 years after the dogfight. At UFC Freedom 250, Williams flanked UFC lightweight veteran Michael Chandler for his ceremonial walk to the White House octagon. Also at Chandler’s side: Arlington first responder Captain David Jenkinson. Chandler had been enthusiastic all week about his D.C. appearance — the broadcast call captured what everyone in the crowd was thinking when Williams walked out: “𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘙𝘰𝘺𝘤𝘦 𝘞𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘮𝘴 𝘢 𝘣𝘢𝘥 𝘣𝘰𝘺, 𝘩𝘶𝘩?” A fighter entering a cage beside a man who once won a 𝐨𝐧𝐞-𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭-𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐊𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐚 and never breathed a word about it for seven decades.

November 1998. A 27-year-old Elon Musk sits in a tiny office in Palo Alto with a leaky roof. He's been living there. Sleeping on a futon. Showering at the YMCA down the street. He and his brother drilled a hole through the floor to tap into the internet provider below them because they couldn't afford their own connection. A CBS reporter asks him: "What do you see as the future of the internet?" He says, "The internet is the superset of all media. It is the be-all and end-all of media. One will see print, broadcast, arguably radio, essentially all media folding into the internet." Nobody knew who this guy was. Three years earlier, he'd dropped out of Stanford's PhD program after two days because Netscape had just gone public at a $2.9 billion valuation, and he figured the internet was about to change everything. He started a company called Zip2 with his brother Kimbal. They had about $2,000 between them. Their father later put in around $28,000. They shared one computer. The website ran on it during the day. Musk coded on it at night. Seven days a week. By the time this interview was filmed, Zip2 had contracts with 160 newspapers, including the New York Times. A few months later, Compaq bought it for $307 million. Musk walked away with $22 million. He took most of that and founded a new company, X dot com, an online bank. X dot com merged with a competitor called Confinity, which had a payment tool called PayPal. eBay bought PayPal in 2002 for $1.5 billion. Musk's cut was about $176 million. He put $100 million into SpaceX and about $70 million into Tesla. By 2008, all three companies were on the verge of failing, and he was borrowing money to pay rent. But go back to what he said in this clip. "All media folding into the internet." In 1998, most Americans didn't have broadband. Netflix was a DVD-by-mail startup. Google had been incorporated five weeks before this interview. YouTube wouldn't exist for another 7 years. The iPhone was 9 years away. And a guy showering at the YMCA, running a company most people have never heard of, described the future of media more accurately in 15 seconds than most media executives would over the next decade. The Forbes 2026 billionaires list, published last month, puts his net worth at $839 billion. He is the richest person who has ever lived. The leaky office in Palo Alto costs less per month than a studio apartment.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 The English were not the only ones to demand their king answer to them. A century after Runnymede, fifty Scots sealed a declaration of their own. ⚔️ It went further than the English barons had ever dared. Their king was excommunicated. Their country had been at war for 30 years. The Pope had refused to recognise that their kingdom existed at all. So they wrote to him. ⚖️ They sealed the declaration with more than 50 personal seals. Not one king's seal. 50. Each man committing his own identity, his own house, and his own life, to the words on the page. 📜 The Declaration said something nobody in Christendom had ever put in writing before. It said that a king of Scotland did not rule by his own right. He ruled by the consent of his people. If he ever submitted them back to English rule, the Scots would cast him out and choose another king from among themselves. A medieval king, bound by the consent of his people, to be removed if he failed them. This was 1320. 🔥 And then the Declaration said the line. It said the Scots were not fighting for glory. They were not fighting for riches. They were not fighting for honours. They were fighting for one thing only. For freedom alone, the Declaration said, no honest man surrenders, but with his life. 🏛️ That line was read at the dissolution of the Scottish Parliament in 1707. At the opening of the new Scottish Parliament in 1999. At Scottish memorial services for the wars of the 20th century. For 700 years, the line has never gone out of use. The original Declaration of Arbroath still exists. A single piece of vellum, the ink faded, some of the seals fallen off, the rest hanging from the bottom of the page on silk cords 700 years old. It is held by the National Records of Scotland in Edinburgh. UNESCO added it to the Memory of the World register in 2016. On these islands, the idea that a king rules by the consent of his people is ancient. Older than the kings who tried to break it. Older than the countries we now live in. Older than the languages we now speak. The English barons reformed the throne. The Scots threatened it. ✍️ One island. One spirit. 🇬🇧 The British write their own history. They always have. Help us remember who we are. Help us remember every British achievement. 👇🙏 👉 👈 Be part of us. ☝️🇬🇧 Be Proud Of Us. 🙏🇬🇧

A scene from The Bildad Kagia Play, depicting him arguing with Kenyatta over how land was being dished out! One of the prime crimes that happened after our so called independence is that Kenya was loaned £12.5M, to be loaned to Kenyans by the new government, for purposes of buying land from the white colonialists who wished to sell “their” land back to the natives. As we all know, banks don’t just give money to anyone; one has to prove that they can pay, that they have collateral and so on. Most of the Mau Mau fighters who had been in the forest and the detainees (prisoners of war) who had just come back from detention & prison in 1961-62 did not have collateral. Their kids had also been victimized and denied an opportunity to advance their education as the colonial government advanced the interests of their collaborators. These means that most of those who had the means and networks to acquire the loans to buy the land from the white colonialists were the colonial collaborators. In fact, while this was going on, Jomo Kenyatta’s government was busy hunting down the remaining Mau maus, killing & silencing them. Bildad Kagia chose to advocate for equity! He held to the belief that we could create a fair Kenya. He refused to be bribed with huge chunks of land and for this, he paid a price too high. At some point in the play, the narrator wonders whether Bildad’s principals were necessary in such a corrupt nation and how they played out on the people around him. For example, his children attended local primary schools instead of the prestigious schools where prominent politicians’ kids usually schooled. Bildad died in 2005 at Jericho Estate in his daughter’s house. That scene really broke my heart and my sister made a commentary on how sad his ending was, perhaps even more than Kimathi’s; the later had died hopeful that the rest of the country would carry on with the fight and win. As for Bildad, he had lived through the war, he had seen independence, but things shifted immediately. He had seen his friends like Pio Gama being eliminated for their stand against Jomo’s government. He had lived through an assassination attempt, and like most of the political class of the time, he had had an opportunity to steal public resources and enrich himself! However, the man had chosen to continue with the fight for a Kenya that could work for all, and he had lived through decades of seeing that become an impossibility. Here is a man who fought, never sold out despite numerous opportunities to, but one will be permitted to wonder, for what? For we live in a country that celebrates, honors and crowns the sell outs. You can still catch the play at the Kenya National Theatre Today!

Deathbed confession regarding the "moon landing" a must listen. Cyrus Eugene Akers detailed the information in the book, including not only the location of the filming of the first fake moon landing at his military base, the dates it was filmed, and the CIA codename, "OPERATION SLAM-DUNK". He also gave the names of fifteen government scientists and officials who were allowed exclusive observation of this historic government fraud, some of whom are still alive today. The list was given to Akers by President Lyndon Johnson, who was there at the first day of filming. Threatened with execution if he ever revealed this information, Security Chief Akers kept all of this to himself until his deathbed, the guilt from which prompted his tearful confession to his son, who was also threatened with assassination after sharing this information with the author of Moon Man, Bart Sibrel. This sad and outrageous, and really unnecessary deception, was done for pride and embezzlement. It demonstrates the complete arrogance of leaders over their people, who in fact are financing their own deception. Unlike government frauds about war, assassination, or terrorism, the moon landing deception cruelly gave the over-trusting public the pleasing candy that they cried out for. Trying to take it away from them, after they believed with tears and cheers, by exposing their heroes as the criminals they really are, faces fierce resistance. Even a professor at a major university has so famously said, "Even if I heard a moon astronaut confess that he never really went, I would still believe that he walked on the moon." Fortunately a new generation is here, ones who were not emotionally branded by the deception, who are objective to the unfolding reality of the moon landings falsification. Simply put, what the corrupt government is claiming, is that in 1969 they went from never being in space, to walking on the moon, with only 8 years of research and development, and that with one-millionth the computing of a cell phone, and on the first attempt, when even the South Pole on Earth was not reached on the first attempt. Today, with 50 years of more advanced rocket and computer technology, the current Artemis moon rocket took 18 years to develop, had three launch failures, is not safe enough yet to carry astronauts, and will only orbit the moon, because a moon lander for it has not yet been developed that works. The farthest that the government can send astronauts today, 50 years later, is to the space station, which is only one-thousandth the distance to the moon. For the first time in the entire history of the world, technology was greater in the past than in the future. As this is actually impossible, it only means one thing, that the 1969 moon landing was a forgery. It is not the first time scientific boasts were falsified or governments have lied, as covid vaccine maker Prizer has been fined billions of dollars, on multiple occasions, for making fraudulent claims about their scientific products. Former high-ranking government employee Robert McNamara, who was Defense Secretary during the Vietnam War, admitted before he died that the "Gulf of Tonkin Incident", which was the reason why the war began, was completely fabricated by the CIA. If the corrupt government is willing to falsify something that led to the death of a million people, including 58,220 of their own citizens, then I think they are capable of faking an image on a television.

🚨Tommy Robinson: The Man Who Warned About Grooming Gangs for 20 Years While Everyone Else Stayed Silent 🤫 As Tommy Robinson 🇬🇧 is currently in the United States preparing to deliver what he calls the “biggest speech of his life” and spreading the truth about what's happening in the UK, here's a message for my American friends who are only now waking up to the shocking grooming gang scandal rocking the UK. Tommy Robinson has been fighting the Islamification of Britain and exposing the grooming gangs for over two decades. The issue only exploded globally recently thanks to Elon Musk and X, but Tommy was banging the drum long before anyone else dared, and it has cost him everything. He has sacrificed his family, his freedom, and his safety. His life has been credibly threatened multiple times. Just recently he had to flee the country after authorities warned him of an active ISIS plot to kill him. He will never live a normal life again. Watch journalist Andrew Norfolk explain how he sat on his own explosive grooming gangs investigation for seven full years and only published it because Tommy Robinson and the EDL were starting to force the truth into the open. Listen to what Tommy was already saying 20 years ago: "Muslim gangs taking liberties in our towns and cities, taking liberties with non-Muslim youth, non-Muslim girls, r*ping, pimping, beating and abusing our whole system." "There has been a conspiracy of silence by police leaders, Islamic leaders and politicians to facilitate the orchestrated r*pe for 20-30 years of members of our community." He was 100 percent right then, and it is still happening today, still growing, still being downplayed. For telling the truth he has been attacked, smeared, jailed, and had his entire life destroyed by the very institutions that buried these crimes for years and are still trying to bury them now. Respect to the one man who refused to look the other way. 👏👏

Before the bell rings, have to share my weekend - everyone who has been part of Traders4ACause knows how special Honor Flight New England is. One of the MOST incredible Honor Flight NE's I have EVER been on yesterday. Pulled off something really INCREDIBLE and everyone kept their mouth shut, and all surprises unfolded flawlessly. My Dad has been a guardian TEN times, taking/supporting veterans to DC to help give them the thank you and honor they never received when they came home. Sadly, the cutoff is 70 years old so he was pretty bummed he wasn't able to do it anymore. But, once again Delta and Wyndham Hotels & Resorts came together for a third time and put a flight in the air. Given my involvement in making this happen I told him Joe (the one who runs HFNE) had to make a few exceptions for Delta and Wyndham employees and I told my Dad I was able to get approval for him to be a guardian again one more time. He was so pumped. Veterans get a grey shirt, guardians get a blue shirt. Upon check in, everyone was in the know, they checked him in as normal until he got around the corner for his t-shirt for the day. Joe was standing there with a grey shirt, and told him he was coming on the flight as a veteran today, and that I'd be wearing the blue shirt. On top of that, had my Uncle on the flight. He knew he was coming as a veteran. Once again, had Joe ready "Hey, have you met your guardian for the day yet? We picked someone extremely special who we think will be a perfect fit, are you ready to meet him?" His son then comes walking around the corner who we flew in from Texas, put him up at a different hotel so there was no chance of finding out until 6:15AM the morning of the flight. It didn't stop there though, once we arrived at the airport we all came around the last corner before and my whole family was there, and every one of my Dad's sisters made it. Absolutely unforgettable and special. Big thanks to Myra who we met through The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and taught me a lot of what I know on making things like this happen, Susan, Tracy from Delta, Geoff, CEO of Wyndham Hotels (who by the way had to be in London last night and STILL made the flight out of Boston only to bolt late day to make his next flight). Just the whole day, incredible. We need more of it. Favorite part = mail call. On the way to dinner veterans get mail call like when they were in the service. After they open they have a chance to speak/share their favorite part of the day, etc. Most of these veterans came home, were told not to wear uniform again, move on and back to day to day life. They never spoke about it, never honored etc. "I felt like I got the thank you we all deserved and never got" Another guy after mail call "I got a note form some of my family who I have been disconnected from and realize it's been me, I misread the situation and the note they wrote brought clarity and a new beginning" Joe always said during mail call, it's a chance for family and friends to write things they'd never actually say in person and tell them how they really feel - things they never really have a floor to talk about. Lastly, one guy received all the letters his wife saved that he wrote her from war. She saved EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. Can't wait to share the story/video and day at Traders4ACause in Miami late February. Have a good day 🙏

Big thanks to Myra who we met through The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and taught me a lot of what I know on making things like this happen, Susan, Tracy from Delta, Geoff, CEO of Wyndham Hotels (who by the way had to be in London last night and STILL made the flight out of Boston only to bolt late day to make his next flight). Just the whole day, incredible. We need more of it. Favorite part = mail call. On the way to dinner veterans get mail call like when they were in the service. After they open they have a chance to speak/share their favorite part of the day, etc. Most of these veterans came home, were told not to wear uniform again, move on and back to day to day life. They never spoke about it, never honored etc. "I felt like I got the thank you we all deserved and never got" Another guy after mail call "I got a note form some of my family who I have been disconnected from and realize it's been me, I misread the situation and the note they wrote brought clarity and a new beginning" Joe always said during mail call, it's a chance for family and friends to write things they'd never actually say in person and tell them how they really feel - things they never really have a floor to talk about. Lastly, one guy received all the letters his wife saved that he wrote her from war. She saved EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. Can't wait to share the story/video and day at Traders4ACause in Miami late February. Have a good day 🙏

RFK Jr. on psychedelics and how his son’s ayahuasca experience opened his mind to legalization “My inclination would be to make them available, at least in therapeutic settings and maybe more generally, but in ways that would discourage the corporate control and exploitation of it. My wife in 2012 took her own life… and one of [my kids] was worrying to me because he never processed his mom’s death in a way that I could observe. About five years ago… he went to Patagonia to kayak a white water river that I kayaked for many, many years… The night my son arrived there, the guy [he stayed with] said to him ‘I’m doing an ayahuasca trip tonight’… so my kid ended up doing this. After he drank the ayahuasca… he felt himself sinking through all the geological strata of the Earth, and he told me… he had a total understanding of all of the processes that had laid them out through the eons. He ended up being propelled out the other side of the Earth and then floating through space for what he experienced as hundreds of years. He would focus on a distant planet and be transported there, and on each planet he would have an adventure and at the end there would be a lesson that he was supposed to remember. The last planet he visited, his mother was there. And she started passing through him, in and out of him again and again and every time she did that, he felt all these experiences of forgiveness, of love, of understanding, of comprehension, of empathy and compassion. When he came back from that trip, he was completely changed. He was very open about talking about his feelings, [but] the reason I really know that it changed him is he started taking out the garbage and doing the dishes. I have a friend who’s a Navy SEAL who had severe PTSD and he went to Costa Rica and had the same kind of experience. I have a couple of other friends who are in the NFL and they also had severe brain injuries and depression, and the same thing happened. So, my mind is open to the idea that there may be things that I don’t know about and that people ought to have the freedom and liberty to experiment with these things.”

This man stole a country from his own father and spent the next 18 years buying the West with gas money. - He deposed his own dad in a palace coup and left him in exile for nearly a decade - He founded the news network that aired Osama bin Laden's tapes - He built America's largest military base in the Middle East and charges no rent for it - He bought Harrods, the Shard, Canary Wharf, Paris Saint-Germain and 17% of Volkswagen - He won the 2022 World Cup for a country with no football history Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani died this morning at 74. Here's how bought the world: In June 1995, he waited for his father to leave the country, then took the throne. The coup was bloodless. His father spent nearly a decade in exile. Qatar is about one third the size of Belgium, and its population was barely two million, most of them foreign workers. But it was sitting on one of the LARGEST natural gas reserves on Earth. He bet everything on liquefied natural gas. Qatar became the world's biggest LNG exporter and one of the richest countries alive per person. Then he hit the problem every commodity business hits: Gas is gas, anyone with a tanker can sell it, and a tiny country with no army and that much money is a snack for its neighbours. So he bought two things nobody else in the Gulf thought to buy... The first was the world's attention. In 1996 he issued a decree and Al Jazeera was born. Within a few years it was the most influential news network in the Arab world. He owned the loudest microphone in the region and never had to speak into it himself. The second was the American military. In 1996, Qatar spent over a billion dollars building an air base at Al Udeid, outside Doha. It got the longest runway in the Gulf and shelters for nearly a hundred aircraft. Qatar's air force only had about a dozen fighter jets. In 1999 he reportedly told US officials he wanted 10,000 American servicemen stationed there permanently. Then 9/11 happened, and they came. The genius part: Al Udeid is now the forward headquarters of US Central Command and the largest American base in the Middle East, with roughly 10,000 troops. Qatar charges no rent. He built the asset before the customer existed, handed it over free, and bought the one thing cash cannot: The US military parked permanently between his gas and everyone who wanted it. The network broadcasting bin Laden and the runway flying America's war sat in the same tiny country, paid for by the same man. Then he went shopping... He set up the Qatar Investment Authority in 2005: - Harrods - The Shard - Canary Wharf, London's largest property owner, bought with Brookfield for 2.6 billion pounds - 17% of Volkswagen - Paris Saint-Germain All his. In 2017 the Telegraph ran the headline "Qataris own more of London than the Queen." Then 2008 arrived. Barclays needed billions or the British government was going to own it. Qatar wrote the cheque and its stake climbed to 12.7%. Barclays was later charged over how it disclosed that Qatari money. In 2010, FIFA handed the 2022 World Cup to a desert country with NO football history. Corruption allegations shadowed the bid for over a decade, and the treatment of the migrant workers who built it drew brutal criticism. Yet he walked into the opening match in 2022 and the stadium gave him a standing ovation. Every other Gulf state was selling the same molecule at the same price. Hamad spent his money on a newsroom, a runway, a football club and half of London. A country of two million now brokers hostage deals and hosts American presidents. He built all of it in 18 years, and he took the throne from his own father to start. Truly an unmatched legacy.

ON THIS DAY in 1956, Yuri Vardanyan, the Armenian Weightlifting Legend Who Set 43 World Records & Broke 5 in a Single Olympic Day, Was Born. 🇦🇲 70 years ago today, on June 13, 1956, one of the greatest weightlifters in history was born in Leninakan, the city now known as Gyumri. Yuri Vardanyan would go on to become an Olympic Champion, a seven-time World Champion, and the Armenian titan who set 43 world records and stood atop the world of weightlifting through the late 1970s and early 1980s. Vardanyan began training in 1970 at the age of 14 under his uncle Sergey Vardanyan at the legendary Lokomotiv club, in a city already famous for producing some of the strongest men in the world. By 20, he had broken every world record in his division. By 21, he was a World Champion. By 24, he was an Olympic gold medalist. Moscow, 1980: Five World Records In A Single Day When Vardanyan stepped onto the platform at the 1980 Moscow Summer Olympics, no one in the arena could have predicted what they were about to witness. Over the course of a single afternoon in the light heavyweight 82.5 kg category, he rewrote the record books five times. He broke through the 400-kilogram barrier in his class, a number long thought beyond human reach, and walked away with the gold medal around his neck. With it, he became the first Armenian ever to stand atop an Olympic weightlifting podium. Across a career that lasted barely a decade, he amassed 43 world records, claimed seven World Championship golds including five consecutive years from 1977 to 1981, won five European titles, and stood as the undisputed king of his division through the late 1970s and early 1980s. The Soviet Union named him Honoured Master of Sports in 1977 and awarded him the Order of Lenin in 1985. In 1994, the International Weightlifting Federation inducted him into its Hall of Fame. The Olympic Crown He Was Denied The full measure of Vardanyan's career carries a quiet tragedy: by the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics he was at his peak and the heavy favorite for a second gold, but the Soviet boycott denied him the stage. He competed at the Friendship Games instead, dominated, and retired the following year at 29. After his career, Vardanyan returned to public life in Armenia, serving as adviser to President Sargsyan, Minister of Sports in 2013, and later Armenia's Ambassador to Georgia. He passed away on November 1, 2018, at the age of 62 in the United States. The Pride Of Gyumri Yuri Vardanyan was a son of Gyumri, the city devastated by the 1988 Spitak earthquake and rebuilt in the decades that followed. Gyumri's weightlifters have long been a source of national pride, and Vardanyan stands at the front of that tradition, the man who lifted Armenian sport onto the world's highest podium and held it there. 70 years after his birth, his records remain landmarks, his Olympic gold a touchstone, and his name one of the most beloved in the history of Armenian sport. #YuriVardanyan #ArmenianOlympian #ArmenianWeightlifting #Gyumri #ArmenianSports

$Two air forces started the Pacific war. One trained its pilots, then kept them fighting until they died. The other trained its pilots, then often pulled many of its experienced combat pilots out to teach everyone else. This is one of the reasons America won the Pacific air war, let's dive in.. Japan's Elite Aviators At the start of the war, Japan had some of the finest fighter pilots in the world. The aviators who attacked Pearl Harbor were elite. Many had hundreds of hours in the cockpit and real combat experience from the fighting in China. Flying the nimble A6M Zero, they cut through Allied opposition in the early months of the war and earned a fearsome reputation. But Japan made a fateful choice about these men. It kept them in combat, more or less indefinitely. Japanese pilots flew mission after mission with no real system to rotate them home. They fought until they were shot down, crippled, or killed. It seemed ruthless and efficient. In reality, it was a slow-motion disaster. The Difference in Philosophy Because every time Japan lost one of those veterans, everything he knew died with him. America did the opposite. It regularly rotated many of its experienced combat pilots back home once they had done their share of fighting. There, they became instructors, pouring everything they had learned in real air combat directly into the next generation of pilots. So the two systems pulled in opposite directions. Japan's pool of skill drained away with every ace it buried. America's pool of skill grew, as each returning veteran multiplied his knowledge across hundreds of students. One nation was teaching. The other was simply dying. The Training Gap The gap became a chasm, and it was made worse by sheer scale. By 1944, the United States was training around 8,000 new aviators every month, each of them getting well over a year of instruction and hundreds of hours in the air before they ever saw combat. Japan could not come close. As its veterans vanished, its training program collapsed, and it was crippled by something else, too. Fuel. Japan was running so short of it that many trainees could barely fly enough hours to learn their trade. By the later part of the war, Japanese pilots were being rushed into battle with barely 100 hours of flying time, and sometimes far less. They were teenagers with almost no training, being sent up against American veterans who had been taught by the best combat pilots in the fleet. The outcome was no longer a contest. It was a slaughter. The Great Marianas Turkey Shoot Nowhere was that clearer than in the skies over the Mariana Islands in June 1944. When the Japanese launched hundreds of aircraft against the American fleet, they flew into a wall of Hellcat fighters, guided by radar and expert fighter direction that positioned the Americans at the perfect height and moment to strike. The green Japanese pilots in their now outdated Zeros never had a chance. In and around that battle, Japan lost nearly 480 aircraft, while the Americans lost only a few dozen. It was so one-sided that the American aviators nicknamed it the Great Marianas Turkey Shoot. Japan's naval air power, once the terror of the Pacific, was broken in a matter of days. Better Aircraft, Better Technology It was not only the pilots. It was the machines too. America kept producing better and better aircraft, like the tough, heavily armed F6F Hellcat, designed after studying a captured Zero and built to beat it. It could take punishment, out-dive and out-gun its opponent, and it was forgiving enough that even a less experienced pilot could survive his first fights and become a veteran. Over the war, Hellcat pilots claimed more than 5,000 enemy aircraft for a tiny fraction of that in losses. Japan, meanwhile, kept sending men up in the aging Zero, a plane that had been revolutionary in 1941 but was now underpowered, fragile, and outclassed. It was fast and agile, but a single burst of American fire could tear it apart, because it had traded armor and protection for maneuverability. Better pilots, in better planes, backed by better technology. The advantages stacked on top of one another. The Spiral Ends By the end, Japan had reached the final, desperate stage of the spiral. With almost no trained pilots left, and no way to make more in time, it turned to the kamikaze. A pilot did not need 500 hours of training to crash his aircraft into a ship. He only needed to take off, aim, and die. It was the last resort of an air force that had run out of the one thing it could never mass produce. Experienced men. America won the Pacific air war for many reasons. Its factories out-built the enemy. Its radar and intelligence gave it eyes the Japanese lacked. Its aircraft grew deadlier every year. But underneath all of it was something simpler. America treated its best pilots as a resource to be protected and passed on. Japan treated them as fuel to be burned. One of those choices built an air force that kept getting stronger. The other burned brightly, and then burned out. This was why America won the Pacific air war. I post a story like this every single day. Most people never see them. Follow so you don't miss the next one.$

They tell you to fear the BULLY. Nobody warns you about the CHARMER. The dangerous one was never the man you boo. It's the man you CHEER. The people's champion. The warm smile you never look past. So look closer. Behind it sits an investigation into children being raped, switched off on his watch. 97 suspects. Walked free. And he wants to run the country. You think Starmer's bad? They're handing you worse, dressed as better. A friendly face, a northern accent, 25 years of buried scandals behind him. CHANGE, he keeps saying. Yet no one in politics has changed more. He's a CHAMELEON. Blairite under Blair. Hard left to chase Corbyn, then sat in his shadow cabinet anyway. People's champion today, because that's what sells today. Twenty-five years. Every position going. Never once a thing changed for YOU. Only to climb high, and this is his THIRD reach for the top. He lost in 2010. Lost again in 2015. And here he is, clawing back for one more go. It was never about serving you. It was always about the climb. He even named his politics. MANCHESTERISM. Not Blairite, not Brownite, not soft left. A flag with nothing on it, because a man who stands for nothing can never be pinned to anything. Immigration? He says he's heard you. That's the trick. Every time tougher enforcement came to a vote, he voted AGAINST it. He's called migration a simple good. He fought to make it EASIER to stay, not harder. He hasn't changed his mind. He's changed his act. Know what you're sold. A man FURTHER LEFT than Starmer. Read that again. More tax. More spend. More borrowing. His own voters say he'd march us back into the EU. Everything you voted to leave, handed back with that same warm smile. He's a COMPASS with the NEEDLE TORN OUT. Looks the part. Points wherever you turn him. Tells you NOTHING true. Not a way out. The same CAGE, friendlier paint. Because through all the changing, one thing NEVER changes. Who he protects. And it was never you. STAFFORD. 1,200 dead. Not from illness. From NEGLECT. Left in their own filth, some so thirsty they drank from flower vases, dying behind curtains while nobody came. He fought to keep the lid ON. Resisted the public inquiry. Decided the truth would do more harm than good. A minister looked at 1,200 dead and decided you were better off not knowing. The families fought him for YEARS to drag it into the light. OPERATION AUGUSTA. 2005. Men grooming and raping children across Manchester. Kids as young as TWELVE, in care, nobody coming for them. 97 suspects. 57 child victims. Then, SHUT DOWN. Not for lack of officers, they had a THOUSAND spare. They had the names. They had the children telling them what was being done to their bodies. Three charged. The rest walked. EIGHT abused again. The records naming who buried it? GONE. And the minister over it all, smiling at you now, calling himself your CHANGE? Andy Burnham. An investigation into child rape. Closed. And the man meant to be responsible for that city wants to be Prime Minister. Victoria Agoglia. Fifteen. In care. She told them a grown man was injecting her with heroin. Said it out loud. They heard her and did nothing. She died. Her family still waiting for an apology that never comes. One man won't let it stay buried. Raja Miah, an MBE who once advised government on safeguarding children, six years demanding a public inquiry. He says it was a cover up dressed as accountability. Survivors shut out. The powerful protected. He’s begged Burnham to face him. Burnham won’t. Happy for any camera that flatters him, gone when it matters. Ask yourself why. So here he is. The charmer. The change. Look past the smile, just once. Stafford. Augusta. Victoria. A trail of the failed, the buried and the dead, 25 years long. He changes his politics, his party, his face for the cameras. Never the one thing that mattered. Who he protects and it was NEVER you. They'll call him the change. He's the one thing in British politics that never changes.

They tell you to fear the BULLY. Nobody warns you about the CHARMER. The dangerous one was never the man you boo. It's the man you CHEER. The people's champion. The warm smile you never look past. So look closer. Behind it sits an investigation into children being raped, switched off on his watch. 97 suspects. Walked free. And he wants to run the country. You think Starmer's bad? They're handing you worse, dressed as better. A friendly face, a northern accent, 25 years of buried scandals behind him. CHANGE, he keeps saying. Yet no one in politics has changed more. He's a CHAMELEON. Blairite under Blair. Hard left to chase Corbyn, then sat in his shadow cabinet anyway. People's champion today, because that's what sells today. Twenty-five years. Every position going. Never once a thing changed for YOU. Only to climb high, and this is his THIRD reach for the top. He lost in 2010. Lost again in 2015. And here he is, clawing back for one more go. It was never about serving you. It was always about the climb. He even named his politics. MANCHESTERISM. Not Blairite, not Brownite, not soft left. A flag with nothing on it, because a man who stands for nothing can never be pinned to anything. Immigration? He says he's heard you. That's the trick. Every time tougher enforcement came to a vote, he voted AGAINST it. He's called migration a simple good. He fought to make it EASIER to stay, not harder. He hasn't changed his mind. He's changed his act. Know what you're sold. A man FURTHER LEFT than Starmer. Read that again. More tax. More spend. More borrowing. His own voters say he'd march us back into the EU. Everything you voted to leave, handed back with that same warm smile. He's a COMPASS with the NEEDLE TORN OUT. Looks the part. Points wherever you turn him. Tells you NOTHING true. Not a way out. The same CAGE, friendlier paint. Because through all the changing, one thing NEVER changes. Who he protects. And it was never you. STAFFORD. 1,200 dead. Not from illness. From NEGLECT. Left in their own filth, some so thirsty they drank from flower vases, dying behind curtains while nobody came. He fought to keep the lid ON. Resisted the public inquiry. Decided the truth would do more harm than good. A minister looked at 1,200 dead and decided you were better off not knowing. The families fought him for YEARS to drag it into the light. OPERATION AUGUSTA. 2005. Men grooming and raping children across Manchester. Kids as young as TWELVE, in care, nobody coming for them. 97 suspects. 57 child victims. Then, SHUT DOWN. Not for lack of officers, they had a THOUSAND spare. They had the names. They had the children telling them what was being done to their bodies. Three charged. The rest walked. EIGHT abused again. The records naming who buried it? GONE. And the minister over it all, smiling at you now, calling himself your CHANGE? Andy Burnham. An investigation into child rape. Closed. And the man meant to be responsible for that city wants to be Prime Minister. Victoria Agoglia. Fifteen. In care. She told them a grown man was injecting her with heroin. Said it out loud. They heard her and did nothing. She died. Her family still waiting for an apology that never comes. One man won't let it stay buried. Raja Miah, an MBE who once advised government on safeguarding children, six years demanding a public inquiry. He says it was a cover up dressed as accountability. Survivors shut out. The powerful protected. He’s begged Burnham to face him. Burnham won’t. Happy for any camera that flatters him, gone when it matters. Ask yourself why. So here he is. The charmer. The change. Look past the smile, just once. Stafford. Augusta. Victoria. A trail of the failed, the buried and the dead, 25 years long. He changes his politics, his party, his face for the cameras. Never the one thing that mattered. Who he protects and it was NEVER you. They'll call him the change. He's the one thing in British politics that never changes.

BREAKING: The soldier who captured Maduro just got arrested. Not for what he did in Venezuela. For what he did on his phone the week before. He bet $33,000 on his own classified mission and won $410,000. And the federal government just made history charging him for it. Meet Master Sergeant Gannon Ken Van Dyke. 38 years old. Active duty U.S. Army Special Forces since 2008. Stationed at Fort Bragg. A communications specialist supporting Joint Special Operations Command. The unit that oversees Delta Force and SEAL Team Six. On December 8, 2025, Van Dyke received a "Classified Information Security Briefing." He signed a nondisclosure agreement. He promised to never reveal classified information about U.S. Army Special Operations. Then he was read into Operation Absolute Resolve. The covert mission to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. 18 days later, on December 26, he opened a Polymarket account. He used a VPN to make it look like he was logging in from a foreign country. He funded it with about $35,000 from his personal bank account. And he started buying. 13 separate "YES" bets between December 27 and January 2. All on Venezuela. "Maduro out by January 31." "U.S. Forces in Venezuela by January 31." "Will the U.S. invade Venezuela by January 31." "Trump invokes War Powers against Venezuela by January 31." The market gave those outcomes a 17% chance. Long-shot bets that Wall Street wouldn't touch. Van Dyke went all in. Total wagered: $33,034. On January 2, the day before the raid, he placed $26,000 of those bets in a single afternoon. Hours before the operation kicked off. In the predawn hours of January 3, U.S. forces stormed a residence in Caracas. Maduro and his wife were captured. Hours later, Trump posted the announcement on Truth Social. Polymarket resolved the contracts to "YES." Van Dyke's $33,000 became $409,881. A 1,141% return in seven days. The same day Maduro hit American soil, Van Dyke withdrew most of his winnings. He sent the proceeds to a foreign cryptocurrency vault. Then to a brand new brokerage account. Three days later, on January 6, he asked Polymarket to delete his account. He told the platform he had "lost access to the email." He changed the email on his cryptocurrency exchange to one not registered in his name. An email he had created on December 14. Twelve days before the bets. He knew exactly what he was doing. Here's the part that should infuriate every American: A photo was uploaded to his Google account on the day of the raid. The picture, according to the indictment, shows him on the deck of a ship at sea at sunrise. Wearing combat fatigues. Carrying a rifle. Standing alongside three other soldiers. That ship was the USS Iwo Jima. The same vessel where Maduro was held after the operation. He didn't just have classified information. He WAS the operation. For weeks, the trade was an internet mystery. CNN and on-chain analytics firms flagged the suspicious wallet. An anonymous account had turned $33K into $410K on the longest of long shots. Federal prosecutors started watching Polymarket directly. The platform handed over the records, and they pointed to Van Dyke. On April 23, 2026, the Department of Justice unsealed the indictment. Five charges. Unlawful use of confidential government information for personal gain. Theft of nonpublic government information. Commodities fraud. Wire fraud. Engaging in a monetary transaction in property derived from specified unlawful activity. Maximum sentence: 20 years on the wire fraud count alone. 10 years on each of the others. The CFTC filed a parallel civil complaint. They want every dollar back. Plus penalties. Plus a permanent ban from regulated markets. This is the first time in U.S. history a person has been criminally charged for insider trading on a prediction market. The first time.

Beethoven could not hear the music he wrote. At the age of 28, he realized he was no longer able to listen to a flute being played in the distance, and he spent the rest of his life composing the most enduring music in Western history in almost complete silence... He had been a working musician since childhood. His ears were everything. In 1798, in the middle of a heated argument with a singer, he noticed for the first time that something was wrong. The sound was thinning at the edges. He could hear voices, but high frequencies were beginning to disappear. He told no one for years. By 1802, the truth was no longer deniable. On his doctor's advice he moved to Heiligenstadt, a quiet village outside Vienna, hoping the country air would help. It did not. There, alone and surrounded by farmland, he wrote a letter to his two brothers that he never sent. It was found among his papers after his death. We now call it the Heiligenstadt Testament, and it is one of the most devastating documents ever written by an artist about himself: "You men who think or say that I am malevolent, stubborn or misanthropic, how greatly do you wrong me. You do not know the cause of my seeming so... what a humiliation, when one stood beside me and heard a flute in the distance and I heard nothing, or someone heard the shepherd singing, and again I heard nothing." He wrote, in the same letter, that he had thought of ending his life. And then he wrote the line that explains everything that followed: "Only my art held me back. It seemed impossible to me to leave the world before I had produced everything I felt called upon to produce." He went back to Vienna. He went on composing. Over the next two decades his hearing continued to fade. Friends began writing their words down in small notebooks instead of speaking them aloud, and waiting while he read. Modern scholars call these the conversation books. Around four hundred of them survive. To compose, he developed his own methods. He bit one end of a wooden rod and pressed the other against the soundboard of his piano, letting the vibrations travel through his jaw to his inner ear. He had stumbled, through trial and error, onto the principle that modern science calls bone conduction. The cause of his deafness has never been settled. What we do know is this: he realized he was losing his hearing at twenty-eight, and he could have stopped. He wrote the letter, he held the thought of dying in his hand, and then he put down the pen and went back to work. Most of what he is remembered for was composed after that moment: The Fifth Symphony. The Seventh. The Ninth. The Missa Solemnis. The late quartets. All of it was made by a man who could no longer hear most of what he was writing. There are people who give the world what they receive, and there are people who give the world what they were never able to receive. The most enduring beauty in human history has almost always come from the second kind... -- -- -- If you enjoyed this, I write a weekly newsletter read by over 50,000 people who love rediscovering the beauty of the past.

🚨BREAKING🚨: Gary McKinnon, the man behind the most sensitive and largest military hack in U.S. history, sat down for the first time in years and described seeing a cigar-shaped UFO hovering above Earth in a NASA database attached to Johnson Space Center. This corroborates the testimony of former NASA employee Donna Hare who claimed she saw a photograph of a UFO in the exact building McKinnon scanned. McKinnon also discovered a spreadsheet titled "Non-Terrestrial Officers" listing roughly 40 names and ship-to-ship transfers of exotic materials. He was promptly persecuted by American authorities, threatened with extradition along with 70 years in prison and remains on the Interpol Red List to this day. For the first time in decades, Gary reveals what he really thinks NASA’s “secret space fleet” was: a supply chain for highly useful, thinly-layered metamaterials that require a low-gravity space environment for fabrication. He also opens up about being implanted with a “tracking” chip in the middle of the night a few years after the hack. Gary McKinnon hacked into 97 U.S. military and government sites in early 2000 from his girlfriend's aunt's flat in London. NSA at Fort Meade. DISA. Army, Navy, Air Force networks. NASA. All accessed with a Perl script scanning for blank passwords on a 56K dial-up connection while smoking weed in a dressing gown at 4 AM. He was not a professional hacker. He was a guy from Falkirk, Scotland, who grew up near Bonnybridge, one of the UK's most active UFO hotspots, who had read the Disclosure Project book and wanted to know for himself. What he found inside those systems, and what the U.S. government did to him for finding it, is one of the most consequential stories in modern UFO history. 1. Cigar-Shaped UFO Hovering Above Earth Inside Building 8 at Johnson Space Center, McKinnon found a machine with two folders on a bare desktop: "Raw" and "Processed." On his 56K connection the file loaded line by line. First blackness. Then a hemisphere. Blue and white. Earth. Then a straight silvery line. A smooth, cylindrical, cigar-shaped object with no seams, no rivets, no sensors. Far beyond low Earth orbit. Then the mouse moved on its own. Someone at the other end right-clicked the network icon and disconnected him. He never saw the full image. 2. "Non-Terrestrial Officers" Spreadsheet On what he believes was a Navy system, McKinnon found a spreadsheet titled "Non-Terrestrial Officers." One tab listed roughly 30-40 names. Another listed ship names that matched no known U.S. Navy vessel. A third recorded fleet-to-fleet transfers of materials: molybdenum, barium, strontium. He downloaded it. When he was arrested, all his data was seized by the Office of Naval Intelligence. He has tried for years to get his hard drives back. ONI says the investigation is ongoing. 3. Space Supply Chain, Not “Alien Officers” McKinnon never found the secret space program known as Solar Warden. That term came from an anonymous forum post after his case went public. What the spreadsheet describes is logistics. Ship names. Personnel. Material transfers between fleets. Non-terrestrial means not Earth-based. Not necessarily non-human. The simplest read is a classified space manufacturing operation: humans creating exotic metamaterials in zero-gravity that are physically impossible to fabricate on Earth. This interpretation emerged live during the interview. McKinnon said he had never connected it that way before. 4. Materials in Space Made for Anti-Gravity Barium and strontium are high-K dielectrics that store and discharge electric fields efficiently. These are the exact materials in Thomas Townsend Brown's mid-century anti-gravity experiments. Molybdenum is used in advanced alloy strengthening. Commercial efforts to build in space haven’t succeeded historically due to cost of launch – but for materials like these with extreme national security implications – it makes sense for such a program to exist. McKinnon has been researching the Biefield-Brown effect since 2007 and is building his own experiment in a garden shed. The overlap between the spreadsheet and electrogravitics research is not something he recognized at the time. He made the connection for the first time in our interview. 5. They Wanted Him in Guantanamo The UK's crime unit initially said six months, maybe community service. Then those officers visited the Office of Naval Intelligence. When they came back, the tone changed completely. Ed Gibson, U.S. attaché in London, told McKinnon's lawyer: "We want to see him fry." The DOJ said he would be tried under Military Order Number One. Guantanamo status. No media. No family visits. Seven counts, ten years each. Seventy years. 6. He Bought Lethal Injection Chemicals and Considered Taking His Own Life By 2008, after losing multiple court cases, McKinnon gave up. He purchased potassium chloride, one of the three chemicals in lethal injection, and calculated dosage per kilogram of body weight. In 2012, UK Home Secretary Theresa May blocked the extradition, citing unacceptable risk he would end his life. Gordon Brown, David Cameron, and Barack Obama all engaged with the case. McKinnon remains on the Interpol Red List and cannot enter the United States. 7. Donna Hare Said Building 8 Held UFO Photos. McKinnon Found Building 8. Donna Hare, a NASA photographic specialist with secret clearance, testified at the Disclosure Project that a colleague in Building 8 of Johnson Space Center showed her satellite imagery of a large disc that cast a shadow. His job was to airbrush these objects out. McKinnon was already inside JSC's network when he read her testimony. He used Windows auditing commands to isolate Building 8 machines. About a dozen came up. Half had blank passwords. The first one had two folders on a bare desktop: "Raw" and "Processed." The same building. The same kind of imagery. Decades apart. 8. He Got In With Blank Passwords McKinnon wrote a Perl script that scanned hundreds of thousands of military IP addresses in minutes. Five percent responded. Of those, a further five percent had passwords that were blank, "password," or "admin." He used a tool called LanSearch to search every file and folder across up to 5,000 networked PCs at once. The Pentagon's most sensitive networks were protected by nothing. 9. He Reveals He Was “Microchipped” (likely with a tracking device) Gary opens up for the first time about his sleep being interrupted due to a chip implant. He shows us the implant on camera. Two small bumps - incisions - on his foot. He’s done some vigilante investigating and thinks the company that likely made the chip is called Verisign – they built “grain of rice” sized microchips often meant for human implantation. McKinnon’s was likely an RFID tracker to track his whereabouts. Dystopian to say the least! Why This Matters Matthew Bevan hacked into the Department of Energy and atomic labs in the 1990s using more sophisticated techniques. Slap on the wrist. McKinnon used blank passwords and found UFO imagery and a logistics spreadsheet. He faced decades in prison. The severity of the response tells you something about what he found; the existence of a secret space supply chain. The materials on that spreadsheet, barium, strontium, molybdenum, are the same materials in Townsend Brown's anti-gravity research – that is not a coincidence you dismiss easily. McKinnon never intended any harm – he was merely a curious UFO fanatic. He used off-the-shelf available technology. He should be pardoned by Trump (who has explicitly expressed interest in UFO transparency) immediately. #FREEMCKINNON Full conversation covers all of this and much more. Maybe the most mind-blowing and dot-connecting interview we've ever done 👇

Warren Buffett just warned that the US dollar could collapse and admitted he doesn't understand most of the stock market anymore. 95 years old, sitting on $380 billion in cash, and the first time watching from the sidelines instead of actively investing. And what he revealed at this weekend's Berkshire shareholder meeting is genuinely concerning: On the market, Buffett didn't hold back. He compared it to "a church with a casino attached" and said the casino has never been more packed. On one-day options: "That is not investing. It's not speculating. It's gambling. Totally." He pointed to the Avis short squeeze THIS WEEK. A rental car company that's been around for 50 years getting meme-squeezed in 2026. The same behavior that blew up retail traders with GameStop is back, except now it's hitting boring legacy companies with zero business being volatile. "We have lots more regulation now, but people spend their time figuring out how to get around the rules rather than follow the rules." That one sentence explains more about the current market than every CNBC segment combined. When asked why he's hoarding $380 billion instead of investing it, Buffett said something no one expected: "I understand fewer of the businesses as a percentage of the whole than I did 10 years ago. I have not learned new industries for some years. I'm not going to have an edge on a whole bunch of younger people that have actually grown up with it." Think about what he's actually saying... This is a man who made $140 billion by understanding businesses better than anyone alive. And he's telling you the current market is so detached from reality that even HE can't make sense of what's being valued and why. He quoted IBM's Tom Watson Sr.: "I'm smart in spots and I stay around those spots." In 60 years of managing money, he said MAYBE five were "really juicy." Five out of sixty. That means 92% of his career was spent WAITING while everyone else gambled. And he still ended up richer than all of them. Then the conversation turned to inflation and that's where it gets really interesting: Buffett said America is "not immune" from runaway inflation. He brought up countries that went bankrupt "six or seven times" in his lifetime. Compared today to right before Volcker had to rescue the dollar, when Americans were borrowing at 12% to buy farmland earning 6% because they believed the dollar would disappear. "Cash is trash" was the mentality. Nebraska farmers collapsed because of it. Entire communities wiped out not by a recession but by a BELIEF that the currency was dying. And Buffett sees that same energy building again. Then someone asked the question everyone wanted answered: Do you see a crash coming? "If you saw it coming, it wouldn't happen. The things people are talking about and thinking about? It's not going to happen. But there are things that can come out of the blue." He compared it to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 that triggered World War I. Nobody was discussing or anticipating it. But it changed the world overnight. "That's particularly true now because of the things that can come out of the sky." A 95yo man who has survived every crash, every war, every crisis of the last six decades just told you the market is a casino, the dollar isn't safe, and the real collapse will be something nobody sees coming. $380 billion in cash is his answer because he believes things are about to get much worse.

I have not learned new industries for some years. I'm not going to have an edge on a whole bunch of younger people that have actually grown up with it." Think about what he's actually saying... This is a man who made $140 billion by understanding businesses better than anyone alive. And he's telling you the current market is so detached from reality that even HE can't make sense of what's being valued and why. He quoted IBM's Tom Watson Sr.: "I'm smart in spots and I stay around those spots." In 60 years of managing money, he said MAYBE five were "really juicy." Five out of sixty. That means 92% of his career was spent WAITING while everyone else gambled. And he still ended up richer than all of them. Then the conversation turned to inflation and that's where it gets really interesting: Buffett said America is "not immune" from runaway inflation. He brought up countries that went bankrupt "six or seven times" in his lifetime. Compared today to right before Volcker had to rescue the dollar, when Americans were borrowing at 12% to buy farmland earning 6% because they believed the dollar would disappear. "Cash is trash" was the mentality. Nebraska farmers collapsed because of it. Entire communities wiped out not by a recession but by a BELIEF that the currency was dying. And Buffett sees that same energy building again. Then someone asked the question everyone wanted answered: Do you see a crash coming? "If you saw it coming, it wouldn't happen. The things people are talking about and thinking about? It's not going to happen. But there are things that can come out of the blue." He compared it to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 that triggered World War I. Nobody was discussing or anticipating it. But it changed the world overnight. "That's particularly true now because of the things that can come out of the sky." A 95yo man who has survived every crash, every war, every crisis of the last six decades just told you the market is a casino, the dollar isn't safe, and the real collapse will be something nobody sees coming. $380 billion in cash is his answer because he believes things are about to get much worse.

What I saw at the Tommy Robinson hearing today Today Tommy Robinson (Tommy Robinson 🇬🇧) had a hearing at the Royal Courts of Justice. The judge was Martin Chamberlain. The question at hand was this: are Tommy’s prison conditions dire enough that he needs an expedited hearing to review how the prison is treating him? As in: are things so bad that the courts need to move very quickly to review things — as opposed to their normal, slow pace? On Tommy’s team was prison lawyer Sara Watson and a barrister named Alisdair Williamson, KC. (Williamson was Tommy’s successful lawyer last year, when the Metropolitan Police tried to ban Tommy from going into the city of London. He’s really good.) On the other side was a battery of government lawyers — I counted four, led by Tom Cross, KC. Just stop for a moment to think about that: the UK government hired FOUR lawyers, at taxpayers expense, to fight against Tommy Robinson’s request to have an expediting hearing to review his atrocious treatment in prison. They probably spent more than £150,000 of tax dollars just on today’s battle. (Imagine if Keir Starmer put that much energy and effort into fighting real crime in the UK.) It’s not justice. It’s a vendetta. I’ve attended a lot of trials for Tommy over the years; he’s won some and he’s lost some. But this one felt good. Tommy’s team had a report from an expert psychologist who went to prison to examine Tommy. She found that, being kept in a small cell 21 hours a day, for more than 140 days, has induced a kind of PTSD in Tommy. The government didn’t even try to contradict those findings. They did, however, try to say that Tommy had all the privileges he could ask for, including visits, phone calls, a computer, TV and the like. But as the government lawyer was saying that, Tommy — who was on a video link from prison — started waving his hands, signalling to the judge that he had something to say. The judge stopped the proceedings and invited Williamson to phone Tommy to see what the fuss was about. The court took a half hour break. And then something incredible happened. The government lawyer had just been bragging about how luxurious Tommy’s treatment was — including how many phone calls he could make. But when the court resumed, Tommy held up a sign to the video camera in his prison video room. And on it, he wrote that the prison had cut off the phone call in the middle of his conversation with Williamson! The judge saw that note and asked what happened. And indeed it was true: literally in the middle of Tommy’s conversation with Williamson, the bullies at the prison cut off the phone call, as they have done to him so many times before. As Williamson said to the judge, the one act of misconduct that the entire court witnessed proved that when it came to Tommy, there’s a big difference between what the prison says and what the prison does. The judge was angry — remember, it was he who had asked Williamson to consult with Tommy; it was an important part of the hearing, to make sure the judge had all the facts. The bullies at the prison weren’t just messing around with Tommy this time; they were messing around with a judge. The judge tore a strip off the government lawyer, and had a one-hour break for Tommy to talk to his lawyers properly. When we all resumed, the judge said the prison’s shenanigans had delayed things so much, the judge wasn’t ready to release his ruling today — he’ll do that tomorrow. What a note to end on. I’m not saying it’s a sure thing that Tommy is going to win. But it couldn’t have been a clearer illustration of how the prison casually abuses Tommy, and gaslights him about it. Except this time, they didn’t seem to realize they were fighting with the judge, too. It was quite a dramatic moment. I spoke to Williamson after the hearing, and he says he’ll share the ruling with me tomorrow when the judge releases it — I’ll make sure to send you an email with the results as soon as I can. What a day. I’m on my way back to Canada now, but I’m very glad I came. My live-tweeting had millions of views today from around the world — a lot of people are interested in Tommy’s case. There were a few journalists there from the mainstream media, including a few real Tommy-haters. I recognized one of them from the BBC. So it feels great knowing that my tweets and videos will have far more viewers than their anti-Tommy propaganda. I’m so glad I came! My flight from Canada was seven hours each way, plus the taxi ride in from Heathrow was another hour each way. That’s a sixteen-hour round-trip journey, for just a few hours in court. But I’m really glad I made the trip. REPORT by Ezra Levant 🍁🚛:

Garry Kasparov unleashes the truth: putin’s war is pure survival, not strategy. Garry Kasparov nails it: putin isn't some rational leader. He's a dictator obsessed with staying in power for 25 years and counting. This war? It's his life support, infecting every part of Russia. Forget ideology, he is a one-man mafia boss, desperate to project strength. He won't stop until he declares 'victory,' which he can't get, so he'll just keep expanding the war. He literally couldn't care less about how many Russians die as long as he controls Moscow and St. Petersburg. Trump even offered him an 'out' twice, and putin rejected it because it would make him look weak - and weakness means the whole flock turns on him. He's even eyeing a test of NATO's Article 5 and hoping his far-right buddies take over Europe. The West's slow reaction and constant reliance on America has just emboldened him. Kasparov is right, the only thing that changes Russia is a Ukrainian victory, and fast. Garry Kasparov: I hate starting to talk with criticism but this time I have to point out that your question basically repeated the same mistake in evaluation because you tried to analyze putin’s actions from the position of the responsible national leader. Everything you said is absolutely correct. vladimir's putin’s rule is devastating for Russia and I believe it will end to the collapse of the Russian Empire which is long overdue. But vladimir putin’s calculations are not based on this rational thinking. His view is very different. He is in power for 25 years and counting. That’s all that matters for him. He’s a dictator and he works for one thing: only survival. He’s still there. And the war has become the only way to keep him in power. War now is in every layer of Russian society, from the very top of the government to industries all the way down to kindergartens. It’s infected by the war virus and that's how putin stays in power. Interviewer: So that makes him different from let's say Soviet leaders or or even some of the tsar’s right? Again you should look at Soviet leaders based on the political momentum, just obviously Soviet leaders that we remember, you and me, so like Brezhnev, they had different calculations. But also don't forget the Soviet leaders after Stalin. They were ruling the country that had strong ideology and communist party. I'm not here to advocate for the communist party or for any kind of ideology but there's a fundamental difference between the party rule which is a mafia structure and the one man dictatorship. putin shifted Russia to a one man dictatorship where everything depends on an individual who is on the top of power, who becomes at certain time a spine of the whole system. And this system depends on his survival, demonstrating his strengths is to be a macho, to be an alpha, surrounded by other mafia bosses. And that's why, you know, his current position today is, you may call it desperate, but I don't think he he sees it the same way. He will continue the war as long as he has the resources. And this is something that the free world is just getting to understand. That was my main criticism to the west. vladimir putin, for a long time was at open war, those were hybrid at the time with the free world. And the free world, and especially Europe, was not willing to hear the messages, to see the messages and to respond accordingly. 1/2

Who Do You Think The 3rd Person Is? Bill Gates? Klaus Schwab? Someone Else? “Nostradamus saw in his future three men that he called antichrists. One was Napoleon, the second one was Hitler, and the third one is the one that is to come, who is said to be the worst of all, because he will learn from the mistakes of the others. A very dangerous person. He didn't like the term antichrist. He said it was a Christian term, and it was not exactly what he meant. But he said, if you think of Christ as representing people, humanity, then antichrist is someone who does terrible things against humanity, against people. And it can be the type of personality like Genghis Khan or Attila the Hun, the type that doesn't care anything about what it's doing, it only wants power. So this is what he meant by an Antichrist. But the third one, he gave us a great deal of information about him because he wanted us to do something to stop the man. He said in the Bible, in the book of Revelation and other books in the Old Testament, the people saw the same things that he saw their symbolism they could understand in their time, but they all saw the same thing. And the man he refers to as the Antichrist is the number 666 in the Book of Revelation, called the Beast. Of course he said 666 also refers to his connection to his computers. So there's a lot more to it. But he has been predicted as far back as Bible times. So he said he has a destiny to fulfill. He has to come, but after he comes, what happens after that is in the hands of mankind. Do we allow it to go through the worst case scenarios or can we lessen it? That's the point fulfill. We were given a lot of information about this man because he is so important. We have his horoscope. He was born on February the 4th, 1962 in Jerusalem, but he's not Jewish. And his parents were killed during the Israeli war and when he was about six or seven years old, and he was raised by his uncle. His uncle is a very evil man, and we have had many people see him, and we have in my work, and we had one woman who was able to put together a police composite picture of the uncle and of the antichrist. She was a psychic who had worked with police on many cases, so she knew how to do the police composite kits. But the uncle took the young boy him as his own. What the young boy doesn't know was that the uncle had his parents killed, so he could have him for himself. And he has gotten together a very powerful group of rich Arabs in the Middle East, and they've been taking care of this young boy and grooming him for the role he is to take. It's a very powerful group of people that control everything that happens in the Middle East. They're the puppet masters behind the scenes. Nusrat Dhamma said, by the time seven puppets arise in the Middle East, you will realize what is happening that they are not the real leaders of the countries, but they are the puppets being manipulated by the puppet masters behind the scenes. The young Antichrist went to college in Egypt, and we were working on this at the same time he was in college, so we were shown several scenes of him in college. We knew where he was living. We had all this information.”

I Got a Suspected Terrorist Captured A Hezbollah-linked financier crossed the Southern border in 2021, Biden let him move to Dearborn, and I’ve been hounding ICE to act for three years By Charlie LeDuff (Charlie LeDuff) They finally got him. After three years of doing whatever he pleased, Issam Bazzi, the first person ever allowed entry into the U.S. despite being designated as a “Known or Suspected Terrorist,” was apprehended in Dearborn during a routine traffic stop. The 54-year-old Venezuelan was pulled over last week on the I-94 entrance ramp at Michigan Avenue by undercover ICE agents who had been surveilling him for weeks. Bazzi was served with an arrest warrant and taken into custody. Apparently, he was on his way to work at an Ypsilanti diner. Workers at the diner confirmed that Bazzi was indeed an employee but was off for the day. When informed that Bazzi would never be coming back to work—ever—the owner of the restaurant questioned this reporter’s sexuality, said unsociable things about his mother, and invited him to vacate the premises with a wave of a middle finger. Bazzi’s father also confirmed his arrest by immigration officials but insisted the authorities have the wrong idea about his son. “Issam good, good, good, good,” he said pointing skyward. “God.” That may be so, but when immigration officials in Texas arrested Bazzi on the banks of the Rio Grande in December 2021, he was flagged on the FBI’s terror watchlist as person who was a “Category 5 Group Member” of an unspecified terrorist organization with “substantive high side derogatory information.” While Bazzi’s Dearborn relatives described him as a mild-mannered clothing-store owner, Joseph Humire, the current deputy assistant secretary of defense, described him to Congress as something more ominous. “In Venezuela, Bazzi owned luxury apartments, yachts, and helped finance a commercial building with ties to the Venezuelan government,” Humire testified. “Notably with… the family of Tareck El Aissami, a former Venezuelan vice president and minister accused of corruption, money laundering, with alleged ties to Hezbollah and is on the ICE Most Wanted List. Only weeks prior to making his trip to the U.S. Southwest border, Bazzi reportedly attended the funeral of relatives of Tareck El Aissami. “Bazzi’s profile fits more as a logistical financier rather than a potential asylum seeker.” Immigration agents recognized Bazzi as a flight risk and recommended his continued detention. Normally, a person on the terror watchlist would be detained, interrogated, and then summarily deported. Inexplicably, officials in Biden’s Department of Homeland Security in Washington, D.C., ordered that Bazzi be released because he was overweight and thus susceptible to Covid, according to highly sensitive documents obtained by Michigan Enjoyer. Despite concerns about Bazzi’s comorbidities, U.S. officials did not require Bazzi to accept a Covid vaccination shot as a precondition to entry. Instead, he was given a one-way ticket to Dearborn. Once in Michigan and living at his brother’s house, Bazzi was awarded permission to work, given a social security number, and issued a driver’s license. At some point during his American odyssey, Bazzi’s claim for asylum was denied and he was ordered deported by an immigration judge. Bazzi currently is appealing his deportation order and now faces one of two choices: Wait for years in jail at the “Lake County Leavenworth” in Baldwin for his day in court, or take Trump’s offer of $1,000 and deport himself. Either way, adios.

Days ago, I was honored to interview Marcus Coleman, the father of Dalilah Coleman, who was severely injured after an illegal immigrant driving a semi-truck crashed into the vehicle she was in. This interview will be featured in my upcoming documentary, "The Illegal Highways," where we discuss not only how illegal immigrants are able to get behind the wheel of a semi-truck, but also the Americans who have suffered because of it. Marcus describes in great detail the evening he received a call that his five-year-old daughter had been in an accident. At first, he was unsure of the seriousness of the situation. It wasn’t until he received another call from EMS stating that his daughter was being airlifted to the hospital that he realized her condition was far worse than anyone could have imagined. He openly explains the confusion that persisted until he finally laid eyes on his daughter. Hospital workers couldn’t find her at first because she had been admitted under an alternate name, and he grew increasingly frustrated with the lack of help locating his child. I could never imagine what he experienced as a father — walking into a hospital and seeing his frail daughter connected to machines, watching her condition initially get worse. In the video attached, I clipped out six minutes of him describing his experience of watching his daughter barely survive this ordeal, including multiple health scares that many thought she would not overcome. Thankfully, she is alive, but she is not the same little girl as before. Today, she is seven years old, non-verbal, and can only walk with assistance. I met Marcus in D.C. because he has been working with the federal government to help draft legislation that would curb illegal immigrants from obtaining CDLs and strengthen enforcement — all with the objective of preventing another tragedy like Dalilah Coleman's. The full interview was over an hour long. Of course, with a documentary, you only see a small percentage of it. However, I wanted to write this to express to the world what I took away from this experience. It is not often that you find people who are willing to sacrifice for a greater cause. Marcus isn’t trying to chase fame or run for office; he’s just trying to do the right thing. When I asked him what it was like being at the State of the Union and having the President acknowledge their situation, he explained that he sees these moments as part of the process and not as moments of excitement. This response I can completely understand. He would rather have a happy and healthy daughter than anything else in the world. His family was forced into this position by systemic failures, which the documentary will explain. As Marcus put it in the interview, he’s doing the job that politicians should be doing. The man is sacrificing his time, flying back and forth between California and Washington, D.C., to fight for a greater purpose. I found him to be a very honorable and genuine man who is striving to create a safer world for Americans. Most importantly, he is a man of strong Christian faith who openly acknowledges that it is his faith that has kept him together throughout this entire ordeal. One of the most powerful stories he told me was about meeting the man who almost killed his daughter. He had so much anger and hatred toward him — until he looked into his eyes. He saw a young man, a soul, and decided at that moment to forgive and let go of that rage. He chose to forgive him, but not to forget. Not forgetting has allowed him to fight for a greater cause. This documentary isn’t about dehumanizing anyone, including the illegal immigrants behind the wheel. I understand — more than the average person — how many of these men are brought to America under false pretenses and are essentially indentured servants who have to drive a truck twice as long as the average American trucker. The purpose of making this film is to tell the stories of the people caught up in this systemic failure. We often lose sight of the families who wake up every day knowing they will never talk to their spouse, sibling, or child ever again. I want their stories heard around the world so that we, the American public, also don’t forget that there are real innocent lives at stake. I am still crowdfunding for this project.

However, I wanted to write this to express to the world what I took away from this experience. It is not often that you find people who are willing to sacrifice for a greater cause. Marcus isn’t trying to chase fame or run for office; he’s just trying to do the right thing. When I asked him what it was like being at the State of the Union and having the President acknowledge their situation, he explained that he sees these moments as part of the process and not as moments of excitement. This response I can completely understand. He would rather have a happy and healthy daughter than anything else in the world. His family was forced into this position by systemic failures, which the documentary will explain. As Marcus put it in the interview, he’s doing the job that politicians should be doing. The man is sacrificing his time, flying back and forth between California and Washington, D.C., to fight for a greater purpose. I found him to be a very honorable and genuine man who is striving to create a safer world for Americans. Most importantly, he is a man of strong Christian faith who openly acknowledges that it is his faith that has kept him together throughout this entire ordeal. One of the most powerful stories he told me was about meeting the man who almost killed his daughter. He had so much anger and hatred toward him — until he looked into his eyes. He saw a young man, a soul, and decided at that moment to forgive and let go of that rage. He chose to forgive him, but not to forget. Not forgetting has allowed him to fight for a greater cause. This documentary isn’t about dehumanizing anyone, including the illegal immigrants behind the wheel. I understand — more than the average person — how many of these men are brought to America under false pretenses and are essentially indentured servants who have to drive a truck twice as long as the average American trucker. The purpose of making this film is to tell the stories of the people caught up in this systemic failure. We often lose sight of the families who wake up every day knowing they will never talk to their spouse, sibling, or child ever again. I want their stories heard around the world so that we, the American public, also don’t forget that there are real innocent lives at stake. I am still crowdfunding for this project.
