🚨 WHERE IS THE MONEY? Blundell reveals that Trump and his cronies gained access to the Kennedy Center’s accounts, and $17 million in operational funds has vanished! This is blatant looting of public institutions. We demand a full investigation now! 🔥😡

#BREAKING: Morris Katz: “How is it not a scandal that @SenatorCollins is married to a lobbyist who, while she was on the [Senate] committee deciding what firms get money, gave $76 million to her husband, that she has voted to fund wars that have enriched her own stock portfolio. Susan Collins and her lobbyist husband seem like a scandal…”😳

Israel is a genius at only one thing: creating stronger enemies by blundering and butchering.
Hezbollah did not appear out of nowhere. It was born in the wreckage of Lebanon after Israel's 1982 invasion. Many Lebanese Shia had not been especially ideological before that, but seeing foreign troops on Lebanese soil, the siege of Beirut, the departure of the PLO under international guarantees, and then the infamous massacre at Sabra and Shatila while civilians were left behind convinced many that nobody was going to protect them.

Ronald Reagan condemned the massacre and pressured Israel to withdraw from Beirut, but for many Lebanese the lesson was that outrage changed little.

The atrocities in the wake of Israel's 1982 invasion of Lebanon are also one of many reasons why nobody trusts Israel when it claims to want a ceasefire. When fighters agree to leave, Israel murders their women and children. With the IDF using flares to light up the night's sky to make the slaughter easier.

Hezbollah's message was simple: if nobody will defend us, we will defend ourselves. That is why it became popular. Not because everyone loved Iran or Islamism, but because many people saw Hezbollah as the only force willing to fight back against occupation and humiliation.

Israel has never been willing to see that its occupation, its assassinations, its thirst for destruction in the name of self-defense will always give rise to tougher enemies.

That's why Israel can't defeat Hamas nor Hezbollah, even though it has a staggering military advantage in technology, money, support, supplies, almost any metric, except that its pig-headed attitude gives its outgunned enemies only one option:

never back down, cause seeking peace with Israel is agreeing to sneaky annihilation.

It is important to resist the commodification of basic human needs. Food, water and healthcare cannot be subordinated to market considerations or geopolitical interests. Access to adequate food is a fundamental human right grounded in the dignity of every person. Meeting this need not only alleviates suffering but also addresses underlying causes of geopolitical instability. Indeed, food security is an essential component of global and integral security. https://t.co/DgkM9RegJ7

Take a moment to really look at this photo. 👇

That is the White House lawn. The People's House. Sacred ground that has stood for 226 years. Not destroyed by war. Not by disaster. But for one man's pleasure.

We are 13 days away from our 250th birthday as a nation, and our president spent $14 million ripping out the Reflection Pool to build himself a swamp. Another $600 million turning the East Wing into rubble. Rose Garden destroyed. And $60 million for his own birthday party that tore up the lawn.

226 years it stood strong. This man destroyed it in a year and a half.

One photo that screams exactly what he's done to this great nation.

Did you guys know that the judges that issued international arrest warrants for Netanyahu were sanctioned by the United States and as a result are completely unable to access their bank accounts or do any banking?

But don’t you dare bring it up you raging antisemite.

Ossoff: We see a faithless president, self-dealing, while he depicts himself as Christ, while he depicts the Obamas as apes, while he plunges the nation recklessly into war, plunders our health care, and sends prices soaring. 

And while the people pay more than ever for groceries and housing and health care, he builds a monument to himself. 

While a cancer patient loses health coverage, he adorns his office in gold. 

Voting rights laws are dismantled, prisons for immigrants are full of children, and all the while we see this wickedness advanced and defended by those who wrap themselves in the banner of righteous faith. 

But we ask, where in Scripture are we commanded to deny care to the sick, to take from those with the least to give to those with the most, to violate the house of worship to hunt down the refuge

The Emperor Has No Clothes: Why the AI Infrastructure Buildout Math Doesn't Work

I have to give IBM CEO Arvind Krishna credit. He's saying what many of us in this industry have been thinking but haven't been willing to say out loud. The math just doesn't add up.

Here's what I'm seeing that's deeply troubling. We're in the middle of another mass hallucination. Just like the dot-com bubble, just like blockchain, just like the metaverse — everyone is convinced that building massive data centers will automatically create massive wealth.

But here's the thing about building infrastructure. You actually have to sell what's inside it.

Let's talk numbers. The planned data center buildout over the next 5-10 years is staggering. We're talking about commitments in the hundreds of gigawatts globally. The capital expenditure commitments are in the trillions. Yet when you look at the actual demand signals, not the projections, not the potential, but the actual consumption patterns, there's a massive gap. These AI companies are betting everything on demand that simply doesn't exist at the scale they're planning for.

Let me be direct. AI services are expensive. Enterprise adoption is slow. Consumer AI is still finding its footing. And the compute requirements being promised by the hyperscalers require a level of demand that would represent a fundamental shift in how businesses consume technology. That's a big ask.

I've seen this pattern before. The overbuilding. The belief that if you build it, they will come. The groupthink that turns critical analysis into heresy. The result is always the same. Companies are going to touch the stove. We're going to see massive write-downs. We're going to see pivots, shutdowns, and strategic reviews. We're going to see companies that spent years and billions trying to be the AI infrastructure leader become case studies in how not to read a market.

The IBM CEO is right. The math doesn't work. And unlike 1999, we don't have the excuse of we didn't know. We know exactly what's happening. We just don't want to believe it because the alternative, being a skeptic while everyone else is piling in, feels like career suicide. It's not. The ones who survive the next decade will be the ones who built for reality, not fantasy.

Wake up. The emperor has no clothes.

As reported by Futurism, Krishna laid out striking calculations: a 1 gigawatt data center costs roughly $80 billion today. If one company commits 20-30 gigawatts, that's $1.5 trillion in capital expenditure. The total commitments across the industry for chasing AGI are approximately 100 gigawatts, equaling $8 trillion. To break even, you'd need $800 billion in profit just to cover the interest. That's not investment. That's hoping.

JEWISH TERRORISM ✡️

Imagine being Palestinian and being forced to give your land to armed jewish settlers.

If you don’t give them your home, you will get killed.

This is the daily hell Palestinians have to live in the West Bank.

ICE hit & run over Black woman with car—just peacefully waving American flag.

"She didn't know there was a vehicle behind her, and was not out to block traffic," said witness.

"He didn't warn her, didn't honk, and didn't slow down."

"If you strike a pedestrian—that is a crime under any situation under New Jersey law."

This is the 2nd or 3rd time that same red Challenger has tried to run somebody over—according to witness.

Man driving is a contract worker at the Delaney ICE for profit prison run by GEO Group in Newark, New Jersey.

Durga Advocate for Justice does have an account on this platform—so posting this video here first to help them raise awareness.

Video is safe to watch, contains additional eyewitness commentary, and does not show any graphic content.

💔💔No parent should ever have to live this.
📢No human should ever have to describe it.

🔴 This is one of the most devastating moments at the UN in years.Palestine’s Permanent Representative Riyad Mansour breaks down in tears while speaking about Dr. Alaa al-Najjar, a Palestinian pediatrician who lost 9 of her 10 children in an Israeli airstrike on her home in Gaza.
Their burned bodies were brought to the hospital where she works as an emergency doctor.
Mansour, struggling to speak through tears:
“This is a horror and trauma that the mind cannot comprehend… the heart cannot bear.”

🕊️ Before Zionism, this is how Jerusalem actually was.
A Christian grandmother born in the city explains how Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived together as equals no second-class citizens, no checkpoints, no occupation.
Then 1948 came.
Zionist forces attacked Arab residential areas.
Her family was forced out.
Like ~98% of the Christian residents of West Jerusalem.
She ends with the line that hits hardest:
“Our homeland is gone…”
This is the history they work overtime to erase.
Watch every second.
Then ask yourself why this testimony is buried while the opposite narrative is amplified everywhere.

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

Trump told Leslie Stahl something years ago that everyone should hear.

She asked Trump he kept calling the media fake news.

He said, I do it because I need to discredit you, so that when you say negative things about me, nobody believes you.

That is EXACTLY what he’s done.

The problem everyone has with him is that most of us grew up with values, ethics, and integrity.

That is not Donald Trump.

He figured out a long time ago that he can bully his way through any rule and if he keeps pushing harder and harder, people will relent.

For most of his life they did, but we must stand up against it.
