A day after publicly threatening one Democratic senator, U.S. Attorney Aaron Reitz went after another Thursday, warning Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) to preserve documents related to her public comments promising to “go hard on accountability.”

The Mossad chief just showed up in DC while Trump and Netanyahu are allegedly in the midst of a major disagreement on Iran.

By the time he leaves the war will be back on. Just watch. The power of blackmail.

BREAKING: ANSAR ALLAH SPOX YAHYA SAREE CONFIRMS THEY STRUCK KING KHALED AIRPORT & THE EAST-WEST PIPELINE IN RIYADH AGAIN

“Our armed forces carried out two precision military operations. The first targeted King Khalid International Airport in the enemy Saudi capital, Riyadh, using a drone and successfully achieved its objective, by the grace of God.

The other targeted Pumping Station No. 3 on the East-West pipeline east of Riyadh using two drones, and the operation successfully achieved its objective, by the grace of God.”

Maybe there's a perfectly innocent explanation for Donald Trump trading millions of dollars worth of shares in the very company whose CEO he had just learned might be compromised by foreign intelligence. Seems like the kind of thing a congressional investigation could help clarify.

🚨 ALASKA SENATE: MARY PELTOLA IS CLOSING IN ON 50%.

And I think today's ballot count could be particularly interesting.

The latest results in the attached tracker:

🔵 Mary Peltola: 49.1% | 125,157 votes

🔴 Dan Sullivan: 46.8% | 119,357 votes

Peltola leads by 5,800 votes.

Here's why I'm watching today's count so closely:

VoteHub analyst Zachary Donnini sees a “solid chance” Peltola reaches 50% if the remaining ballots break as Democratic as they did in the primary.

That would matter enormously.

A final majority of first-choice votes would allow Peltola to win outright, without ranked-choice transfers.

My read? Crossing 50% is a real possibility, perhaps even in today's update.

But that's my assessment, not an official projection or a race call.

More ballots remain. Alaska isn't finished counting.

The next batch could tell us whether Peltola is approaching an outright majority or whether this race heads to ranked-choice tabulation on November 18.

👀 Alaska, we're watching.

🚨 日本はスコット・ベッセントが予言した最大の金融悪夢をまさに引き起こそうとしている

日本から非常に危険な発言が飛び出した。

日銀の上田和夫総裁は、インフレ率の上昇をこれ以上容認できないと公式に警告し、利上げは避けられないと述べた。

片山財務大臣は、「必要であれば躊躇なく行動し、必要であれば為替対策も躊躇なく講じる」と述べた。

これは、米国による介入が終結したことを示す、日本からの明確なシグナルである。

なぜか？

日本は、いわゆる「フリーマネー」の時代を終え、破滅的なキャリートレードの解消に着手しようとしていた。日銀と財務大臣は大胆な行動を示唆し、片山総裁は日銀が準備した措置について西側諸国の人々に謝罪さえした。

そして、突然…米国財務長官が直接介入し、日銀の運営を掌握した。 彼は日本が1兆4000億ドル相当の米国債を売却するのを阻止し、代わりにFRBに対しFIMAファシリティを拡大し、日本に米ドルを貸し付けて米国債を売却させ、円安を図るよう警告した。

スコット・ベッセントは円安のためにドルとユーロを売り、自らを「胴元」と称し、トレーダーたちに円の空売りを挑発した。

日本は自国の株式市場を犠牲にすることさえした。日銀はETFの清算額を年間3300億円から8600億円へと161%も加速させると発表したのだ。

日本は1兆4000億ドルという途方もない額の米国債を保有している。

では、なぜこの計画では米国債は影響を受けないのに、日本株は売却されているのだろうか？

米国債を売却すれば、米国債市場に圧力がかかる可能性がある。

しかし、すべては失敗に終わった。 円は介入前の水準まで下落し、現在は160円となっている。

円安が進む一方で、金利は急上昇しており、10年債利回りは2.8%に達している。

日本の株式市場は本日、6月の史上最高値から20%以上下落し、正式に弱気相場入りした。

日本は米国債保有を売却する以外に現実的な選択肢はない。

残念ながら、日本のユート氏の警告は現実のものとなりつつある。

これは米国の金利、AIサイクル、民間信用市場、そして最終的には金融システム全体に壊滅的なドミノ効果をもたらす流動性ショックを引き起こすだろう。

Abu Dhabi’s big diplomatic breakthrough by Trump’s real-estate boys: Zelensky had to sit them down and explain, like they were five, that Ukraine isn't a distressed asset in Florida.

"I've had to explain this to the Real Estate Bros Kushner & Witkoff: the Donbass isn't my personal property to flip. I can't just gift them an extra two kilometers because it makes the term sheet look cleaner or because someone in Moscow offered a 'package deal'. The Donbas is not my building. People live there.

Try thinking about it as if Russians had already taken half of Florida and were asking Trump to hand over the rest so you two could finally close the deal and go back to building luxury resorts on the rubble."

Once again, Ukraine rejected the US plan to gift its regions to Moscow.
