Zelensky's handlers need to keep him in check — Iran's FM spox Baghaei on Ukraine's deadly attack on Iranian commercial vessel

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russian President Vladimir Putin says Ukraine will fall apart on multiple regions after the war and some of them will merge with Poland, Hungary and Romania

“In the western part of Ukraine, there are lands that Stalin gifted to Ukraine after World War II. Yes, it was Stalin who gifted those lands to Ukraine.

But he gifted them within the framework of a single state. Apparently, it never occurred to him that a situation like today's could arise.

By the way, I am sure that sooner or later, Ukraine will lose these western lands. What belonged to Poland, Hungary, and Romania will eventually, historically, return to its place.

There was only one guarantor of Ukraine's territorial integrity—and that was Russia. But they found it necessary, possible, and beneficial for themselves to declare Russia their enemy.”

SpaceX may be the last brilliant jewel in America’s technological crown.

The U.S. still dominates orbital scale—but that advantage increasingly rests on one company, one launch system, and one billionaire.

China is building something broader:
Sea-based mobile launches.
Solid-fuel rockets.
Onboard AI.
Rapid satellite replacement.
State constellations.
Private launch companies.
An entire commercial and military space ecosystem.

America has the brightest jewel.
China is forging the whole crown.

And once reusable launch technology is fully integrated into that industrial system, Washington may discover that numerical dominance was not permanent leadership—only a head start.

EU + Member States were silent when the US invaded Venezuela, kidnapped the President + his wife, allowing International Law to be thrown in the dustbin. Just as the EU was silent when US/Israel illegally attacked Iran. And silent for Israeli Genocides in Gaza + Lebanon. Shame...

Imagine US Tech companies spending hundreds of billions convincing investors they've built an "unbeatable AI moat", expecting people paying ridiculous monthly subscriptions forever.

Then China drops a model that's just as capable for a fraction of the cost, and suddenly your "revolutionary business model" looks like an expensive PowerPoint presentation.

Turns out that "unbeatable AI moat" aged like milk the moment real competition showed up....

⚡️BREAKING: Iran has fully Built its first Geothermal Power Plant in Sabalan

The 5.4 MW Sabalan Geothermal Power Plant, which has a potential capacity of 250 MW, was Abandoned by European firms following US Sanctions

Iranian companies used Oil Drilling Technology to reach the Dissolved Volcanic Matter at a depth of 3 kilometers, where Temperatures exceed 240°C to 250°C

The de-pressurized Water then flashes into Steam at the surface to drive the Turbines and produce Electricity

Russian engineers make radar systems see with surgical precision

A new antenna array from Penza-based NIKIRET eliminates false signals and boosts target detection accuracy — without moving a single part

🔸 The system uses a phased array with electronic beam steering — no mechanical rotation needed

🔸 Waveguides and phase shifters shape a narrower, cleaner beam

🔸 This reduces side-lobe interference, a major flaw in conventional radars

🔸 Lab tests confirm beam scanning across a 90-degree sector

Sharper radar means better early warning, more reliable air defense, and smarter target tracking

The subtext is hilarious:

America no longer believes it can beat China one-on-one, so it is assembling 20+ countries for a group project.

5G: sanction Huawei.
6G: recruit an alliance.

When technological competition stops producing the desired winner, Washington turns technology into geopolitics.

Nothing says “confidence in American innovation” quite like needing half the Western alliance to compete with one China. 😂

The U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission appeared shocked that it was denied access.

Its own official mandate makes its purpose perfectly clear.

It is a congressional body created to investigate China, frame Chinese technological development as a security threat, and recommend restrictions, export controls, and legislative action against it.

Yet it arrives in China demanding access to Huawei, Tencent, Alibaba, Baidu, and DeepSeek—then acts offended when they refuse.

You are not entitled to an insider tour of the industries you are trying to cripple.

You call it a “snub.”
Fine. Call it whatever helps you sleep.

China has no obligation to cooperate with a state-level economic espionage performance wearing a visitor badge.

You wanted a data point.

Here it is:
China no longer mistakes surveillance for dialogue.

🇪🇸🔥🛑🇷🇺Let it burn, out of spite against Moscow - Spain and it's Russian helicopter drama

Spain would rather choke on the smoke than give up
the anti-Russian sanctions.

A huge scandal in Spain: Infernal forest fires are raging around Madrid and Ávila. More than 45,000 hectares have already burned, tens of thousands of people have been evacuated, and the capital is choking on toxic smoke.
The Minister of Health is advising Spaniards not to open their windows.
On Spanish airports, ten of the most powerful Russian Ka-32 firefighting helicopters sit idle, completely unused.

Due to EU sanctions, it is forbidden to supply spare parts for these machines, and Russian experts are banned from entering the country to maintain them.

The Ka-32 helicopters, which can precisely drop up to 4 tons of water and work perfectly in the mountains, are now simply sitting unused on the ground.

Starbucks employees expose that Starbucks is using “blending powder” in many of their newer drinks

This new powder was just introduced this month. If you drink Starbucks you should be concerned about this

This “blending powder” consists of Gum arabic, maltodextrin, xanthan gum, natural flavor, silica and stevia extract (rebaudioside-A)

The reason they use it is because it acts as an emulsifier and stabilizer

The gums and other components create a smoother, more consistent frozen blended texture and slows separation that would otherwise happen soon after the drink leaves the blender

Starbucks employees have been making videos saying it makes their throats hurt, makes them cough and makes their head hurt

The silica is silicon dioxide and acts as an anti-caking agent. This is a very controversial ingredient for health concerns

But it’s also a concern for these Starbucks employees because inhaling it is dangerous

Fine silica dust can become airborne when the powder is scooped. Prolonged or repeated inhalation of certain forms of silica is linked to serious lung conditions like silicosis

This should not be put in drinks we consume

Our food is a science experiment

‘Starbucks Workers United and individual baristas have publicly raised concerns since the powder’s introduction around mid-July 2026. Reports include the powder becoming airborne easily, along with some partners mentioning symptoms like sore throats, coughing, or chest irritation’
