Trump has a meltdown and ends the interview

Welker: Just to be very clear, there's no evidence of what you're saying.

Trump: There’s a lot of evidence. There’s tremendous evidence. There’s nothing but evidence. The election was rigged. And it’s happening again in California. They’re cheating.

Welker: Do you have evidence?

Trump: All I have to do is look.

Welker: That’s not evidence. The local officials acknowledge they are slow

Trump: They’re crooked. Just like you’re crooked. You’re either crooked or stupid.

Peru is voting, but the deeper question is who controls the country’s power, wealth and future.

A PROUTist view of Peru’s runoff, Fujimorismo, “order”, and democracy beyond the ballot.

You Cannot Bless the Chains began with a papal declaration on AI and human dignity, but the song moved somewhere darker.

It is not really about AI.
It is not really about the Pope.
It is not even only about the Church.
It is about something older: the strange ability of power to change costume and survive.
Once it wore crowns and vestments.
Then uniforms and flags.
Now it wears algorithms, markets, humanitarian language and polished declarations.

The words change.
The posture remains:
some speak from above, while others are told to bow.

This song is a funeral hymn for holy excuses.
For every system that blesses chains and calls it order, duty, civilisation, morality, security or progress.
Sincere faith is not the enemy.
Technology is not the enemy.
The enemy is domination dressed as virtue.
You cannot bless the chains and call it love.

@sama What is the obession about 4o?

Thats why we need economic democracy now. Then we can finally pursue the higher goals of human life, instead of being slaves for the Epstein class. I salute the emergence of AGI. Finally we can see and end to the endless unnecessary suffering. Lets believe in the good of humanity, then it will all end up being good. And really Codex is soo good…

Economic democracy is one of the central ideas in PROUT.

Voting rights alone are not enough if economic power stays in the hands of a few. Real democracy must also mean guaranteed basic necessities, rising purchasing capacity, and local control over local economic life.

A short visual explainer from a PROUT perspective.

This is not a crisis.
It is system behaviour.
Another system is possible.
Test it.

https://t.co/1wHdgqAzOl What is happening in Burkina Faso raises a question the world should not ignore.

Not because it fits neatly into one camp or another, but because it brings into focus a question much of the world is trying to avoid.

Can a country break from foreign domination without falling into repression at home?

That is the real issue now around Ibrahim Traoré and Burkina Faso.

I have put together a new article on this, not as a defence of the government, and not as a lazy condemnation from a safe distance, but as an attempt to face the contradiction honestly.

The country is under real pressure. The insurgency is real. The anger at foreign interference is real. But if sovereignty comes to mean dissolved parties, silenced critics, intimidated journalists and civilians trapped between jihadist violence and state abuse, then freedom has still not arrived.

That is the line I try to examine in this article.

War Signal Clarity is now live. https://t.co/zohjvKaWwu

In a time of fear, hype, and constant war talk, people need help separating real warning signs from noise.

This chatbot is built to assess military headlines calmly and distinguish between:
routine activity,
signalling,
active escalation,
and genuine warning signs.

Back in 2003, a German film crew filming in the Gobi Desert captured an incredibly moving moment: after a tough two-day birth, a mother camel rejected her newborn.
A nomadic family then performed the ancient Hoos singing ritual passed down for generations.
Once the song ended, the camel shed tears and finally accepted her baby.
This powerful scene became one of the most memorable parts of the Oscar-nominated documentary The Story of the Weeping Camel.

Africa was not only plundered for land, labour, and resources.
https://t.co/AKvQsGn2EW
Its knowledge was plundered too.
Again and again, African medicinal, ecological, agricultural, artistic, and social knowledge was extracted without equal recognition, then turned into material for someone else’s archive, theory, laboratory, or profit.
My new article examines this long theft of knowledge through the Asante case in present-day Ghana.

I have just published an essay on a question that matters across all spiritual traditions: what happens when leaders become more attached to position than to principle?

It is about office, moral authority, institutional integrity, rotation, accountability, and the difference between service and privilege.

Grounded in scholarship and long personal experience, it reflects on how spiritual organizations function — and how they decline.

Written with deep respect for genuine spiritual leadership.

Before taking a claim at face value - https://t.co/1RRSyZZF8J
A rule-based tool, not an AI one, for spotting claims that may need more checking before you trust them.
I made this because I got fed up with how often people say things in a way that makes them sound more solid than they are.
A lot of claims are not clearly false, but they still should not just be swallowed whole. Some are weak. Some are vague. Some hide behind phrases like “experts say��� or “people are saying”. Some are just dressed up to sound more certain than they really are.
That is what this tool is for.
Claim Verification Assessor looks for statements that may need more scrutiny before you take them as factual, reliable, or worth acting on. It can catch things like unsupported claims, vague sourcing, rumour framing, insinuation, overgeneralising, and other patterns that often slip through because they sound confident enough.
One thing I like about it is that it is not AI-based. It is rule-based. So it is not just chucking out mysterious verdicts. It works from visible logic. The point is not to replace your judgement, but to help you use it a bit better.
It is not here to tell you what is true. It is here to make it easier to stop and think, hold on, does this really stand up?
That is really the whole idea.

Not a fake veteran, something more politically revealing: a self-mythologizing public figure who turns service into spectacle, prestige, and coercive legitimacy. My latest on Pete Hegseth through a PROUT and Neohumanist lens.
