---Reports---
-International Events-
1. Berlin Pride attack suspect killed by police: On 26 July 2026, Berlin police shot and killed 21-year-old German citizen Abdul B. (Lebanese descent), the suspect in a vehicle-ramming and stabbing attack near the Christopher Street Day Pride event in Tiergarten park the previous night. The attack killed one woman and injured 29 others; authorities described it as an Islamist terrorist attack by a known radical with prior criminal and extremism ties. (Reuters)

2. US and Iran pause attacks for second consecutive day: The US conducted no airstrikes on Iran for a second straight day last night after 13 consecutive nights of operations, and Iran confirmed it also halted retaliatory strikes. US Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz stated President Trump was “giving talks some space”; an Iranian official said Tehran’s position remains “attack for attack.” Mediation efforts involving Pakistan, Qatar, and Oman continued amid Strait of Hormuz tensions. (Reuters)

3. Wildfires force over 250,000 evacuations in France and Spain: Wildfires in southwestern France (Gironde/Landes near Bordeaux) and central Spain (near Madrid and Castellón) led to the evacuation of more than 250,000–300,000 people by 26 July 2026, including additional overnight orders for tens of thousands near Bordeaux. France recorded nearly 98,000 hectares burned year-to-date (a record); Spain declared a national emergency. One fatality was confirmed in a Valencia-area fire; EU civil-protection aircraft and French military assets were deployed. (BBC)

4. Iran warns Ukraine of retaliation after deadly Caspian Sea strike: Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said a deadly Ukrainian attack on an Iranian commercial vessel in the Caspian Sea “cannot go unanswered”, calling it a violation of the United Nations Charter. The Ukrainian attack on Saturday caused the commercial vessel “to explode, killing one sailor and injuring several others”, according to Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. (AlJazeera) (AC-This type of cross-targeting is how World wars expand.)

-US Events-
1. Seattle Bite of Seattle festival shooting: On 26 July 2026, gunfire at the Bite of Seattle food festival at Seattle Center killed three people and wounded four others, including a 2-year-old boy (all wounded listed as stable or serious). One suspect was taken into custody; police searched for a possible second. (KomoNews)

2. ‘Far More Than We Need’: Trump Dismisses Claims U.S. Is Short on Munitions in Iran Fight: President Donald Trump dismissed reports that the United States is running short on munitions for the conflict with Iran, telling the @WSJ on Sunday that the U.S. military has “far more munitions than anyone in the world, and far more than we need” (Breitbart)

@justinbrewer33 @EmmanuelAcho Bill Russell had 11 championships in 13 years.
Jordan went 6 for 6.
Both never had to hop from team to team.
But you think a dude that goes 5-6 in 97 years or 4-7 in his lifetime is a bigger winner? 😂😂😂😂

@21BitcoinMaxi @Zelle This is why we bitcoin and run a node

[avg_gary @avg_gary]

"I’m at the point now where Bitcoin is only a tool for furthering God’s kingdom. I don’t care about it outside of that.

That doesn’t mean I don’t think it’s a great revolutionary freedom tech tool. I’m just choosing to use that tool differently than I think most people are."

[TFTC @TFTC21]

The CLARITY Act quietly included federal protection for self-custody, your bitcoin can't be deemed "abandoned" just because it's sitting on-chain.

@KASPAHQ @21BitcoinMaxi People can run a lightning node... it is a thing.

@KASPAHQ @21BitcoinMaxi Clearly lightning.

On-chain bitcoin is a 9 minute average wait.

[Lightning News @LightningNewsX]

💥 Lightning Network is Bitcoin's killer app

Ethereum 15 TPS 🤪

PayPal 200 TPS 😭

Visa 24,000 TPS 😬

Solana 65k TPS 😶

Lightning 40,000,000 TPS 🤯

Altcoins and legacy payment can't compete.

Higher transaction throughput at lower cost + global access.

[OPERATION BITCOIN @Op_Bitcoin]

See you in Nashville this November @JDVance at the @BitcoinVeterans Summit.

TFTC 772 w/ Average Gary: "All wars are bankers' wars. What I was told we were doing was never the real motive. There's a monetary incentive to keep the machine going, they don't get paid if there's no war."

We discuss:
⚡ Bankers' wars
⚡ Broken money
⚡ Peaceful exit
