Pentagon raised threat of Israeli spying on U.S. to highest level, sources say
The counterintelligence threat level was raised by the Defense Intelligence Agency in recent weeks after growing concerns that Israeli espionage had become more aggressive than usual, sources say.
The designation stems from concerns within the Pentagon that Israel is making a particular effort to surveil top U.S. officials to get information on the Trump administration’s internal deliberations and decision-making on the conflicts in the Middle East, the officials said.
The DIA assessment includes a seven-page document and features a chart, according to one of the current U.S. officials. The document says the assessment of Israel is that its ability to conduct human espionage and technical collection is at a ”critical level,” according to the official.
Earlier this week, I talked about how Congress is hiding the U.S.–Israel military relationship in the defense bill.
There is a second bill that goes further. It makes it law that a president can't pull intelligence sharing back without clearing a legal hurdle, even if you elect one who wants to. 🧵
I usually keep it about Video Games but it needs to be said
We were going to get a Stargate TV Show that was actually made for the fanbase in mind first.
Something for Sci-Fi fans, that respected the lore & built upon it.
Amazon said Yeah… No
BREAKING 🚨🇬🇷
Greeks are being pushed just like Albanians.
An Israeli investment fund is aggressively privatizing 200 hectares of Kalamata’s western beach, fencing off public coast for residences.
They want to create future colonies.
A former USDA scientist and whistleblower, Gerald Zirnstein, now grinds every pound of his own hamburger mear because he refuses to touch the stuff sitting in your local supermarket.
Why? In 2018 the USDA reclassified "pink slime" (officially called Lean Finely Textured Beef) as "ground beef".
Zero warning or disclosure to you, the consumer. That means it can now legally be mixed into any package of ground beef on the shelf.
What exactly is "pink slime"? It’s the leftover beef trimmings that used to go in dog food and cooking oil. The industry heats the waste, spins it in a centrifuge to separate the fat, blasts it with ammonia gas to kill bacteria, presses it into bricks, flash-freezes it, and then sells it back to you as “beef.”
And do it begins….
Netflix has begun restricting content for plans that have ads
They are now making you upgrade to a higher plan just to watch shows already available on Netflix
Locked titles show a padlock icon in search and browse with a message that tells users to “Change plan to watch”
Apparently Studios sometimes prohibit showing their content alongside commercials or require higher licensing fees for ad-supported distribution
Keep in mind this show came out in 2010, and it’s been available many times without having to upgrade your service
We all know this is really increase revenue, and this is actually true. According to Grok:
Locked content can encourage upgrades, though Netflix frames it as a licensing issue rather than a deliberate upsell tactic
It’s a scam
If you happen to be home on this Friday evening, I’ll be on @NEWSMAX at 6:25PM with @CarlHigbie tonight.
I’ll be talking about the Office of Renewable Energy Siting (ORES), Fort Edward Solar, and the attack on New York State nature by the renewable energy industry.
Here we go!
The Expanse got cancelled. It had a strong dedicated fan base. The fans rallied together and saved it from cancelation to get the series finished. The Expanse is widely considered the best sci-fi show in recent modern history.
Stargate fans can do this too. Save Stargate.
Japan said what the Dems refuse to admit:
This guy nails it.
"We’re proud of our culture. When in Rome, do as the Romans do."
No halal pork tonkatsu. No rewriting our ways to accommodate demands. No colonizing by turning the host country into the one you left.
Assimilation isn’t Islamophobia. It’s basic respect.
The Dems keep importing chaos and calling it “diversity” while real nations protect their identity.
Wake up, America. Assimilate or gtfo. Am I right? Or just get out.
(Yes, this is a satire skit but an accurate one.)
Anyone who says who says #Stargate was too Male has never watched the show. The fact is from Episode 1 of SG-1, they pushed back on this. Female characters had their own strengths throughout the show. #SaveStargate
Since Amazon MGM Studios won't even read an email from a dedicated Stargate fan ('unsolicited submission materials'), which must be bad for business, here's the full content of the email (subject is the axing of Stargate):
Dear Amazon Studios Leadership,
I am writing as a longtime Stargate fan to express my deep disappointment at the cancellation of Martin Gero’s new Stargate series and to ask that you reconsider.
Stargate SG-1, Atlantis, and Universe ran for seventeen seasons and built one of the most loyal fanbases in science fiction television. I have been part of that audience for years. I buy Prime Video subscriptions. I watch Amazon originals. I am exactly the viewer you are trying to reach.
The reported reason for the cancellation — that the show was too focused on existing fans — misunderstands how franchise revivals work. You do not build a new audience by abandoning the existing one. You build it by honoring the existing audience first and using their enthusiasm to bring new viewers in alongside them. That is precisely what Martin Gero, Brad Wright, and Joe Mallozzi were doing.
Please restore the Gero Stargate project, or at minimum commit to a revival that respects the franchise’s seventeen seasons of canon and brings back the creative team that built it.
The gate is ready to open again. Please let it.
Thank you for your time. @AmazonMGMStudio@BaronDestructo@MichaelShanks@GateWorld@dial_the_gate@fandompulse@disparutoo
American citizens who criticize Jews or Israel will now be monitored by the FBI.

Now we know why Peter Thiel packed his bags for Argentina.
Milei just submitted his AI legislative framework to Congress, where he proposes:
- zero regulation on AI development,
- a brand-new "non-human corporation" category for AI/robot-operated entities with limited liability
-a low-tax regime with flexible governance rules.
The Dutch East India Company gave the world the limited liability company in 1602. Milei wants Argentina to do the same for autonomous AI agents in 2026.
