In the US, spending on data center construction now exceeds spending on public transportation infrastructure — including airports, marine terminals, and all mass transit.

In a New York federal court, a witness testified under oath that an Israeli embassy official in Colombia used diplomatic luggage to move $150 million in Sinaloa Cartel drug money.

The diplomatic pouch cannot be searched. That is the point. This testimony barely made headlines. Israel is currently at war with Iran, which it calls a "narco-terror state."

The irony does not need commentary.

Since the Korean War China and the DPRK have maintained the US experimented on POWs (and much worse). America claimed this was communist propaganda. Turns out the Americans were lying

An Israeli analyst confirms accounts of Palestinians being raped and sexually assaulted using dogs at Israeli detention sites, citing two guards he spoke with at Sde Teiman torture prison.

“One had witnessed it and said it was too awful to describe. The other said he had heard about it from others and believed it was true.” Ben-Ephraim shares documented cases by various human rights groups below.

“This happened. This is still happening. The evidence is overwhelming,” he notes.

The state of Texas themselves have said they need at least $174 billion to help curb a deeping water crisis. Meanwhile, they are giving $1 billion a year in tax breaks to data centers so they can drink up what little clean water they have left.

"A US special forces solider involved in the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was arrested for allegedly betting on that operation, netting him $400,000 in profits, according to a person familiar with the matter."

A disturbing consequence of Zionist anti-communism is how simply recognizing the millions of victims of Hitler's anti-Soviet genocide is now deemed antisemitic. The West is committed to collectively forgetting what the Nazis did to the Soviet people as part of Generalplan Ost.

The genocide of the Jews is recognized and commemorated in Russia, but it’s not enough to honour the memory of Jewish victims—apparently those former Soviet governments must also deny the genocide of their own people to accommodate the ethnonarcissism of another group that wants to claim exclusive victim status. The Nazis perpetrated multiple genocides against different groups, and to deny this reality is to downplay the sheer scale of Nazi barbarism.

“We are in danger of producing an educated proletariat.” — Roger Freeman, adviser to Reagan and Nixon, arguing for limits on access to education. The US is functionally illiterate by design. Literacy is a tool of freedom, something that is intolerable in the land of the free.

💢 HORRIFIC: Lebanon “death call” drone strike

A man was killed in an Israeli drone strike moments after leaving his family to avoid putting them at risk, according to accounts circulating from southern Lebanon.

Videos show him exiting his vehicle and running into a nearby field before being targeted and killed. Footage shows the moments before the strike, with the man fleeing the area alone.

The incident echoes a previously documented case in Tallousa, near the Israeli border, where 62-year-old Ahmad Tarmas reportedly received a call from the Israeli army asking whether he wanted to “die alone or with his family.”

He left his home and was killed minutes later in a drone strike.

Similar “death call” accounts have been reported in southern Lebanon, journalist Radwan Mortada reported.

Sen. Mike Crapo just blocked Sen. Elizabeth Warren's last-ditch attempt to preserve the IRS's free Direct File program.

In the last election cycle, Crapo was the top GOP congressional recipient of campaign contributions from the corporate PAC of TurboTax's parent company.

When they speak of Iran holding the world economy hostage by choosing who can access it's waterway, just recall that 1 in 4 humans on this planet live under US sanctions. These are a form of economic terrorism and collective punishment enforced to secure its political interests.

The flagrant corruption in Washington is so extreme and outrageous.

The Trump White House passed an executive order, which Wall Street had lobbied for, promoting private equity and private credit firms, cynically framing it as "democratizing access to alternative assets for 401(K) investors".

In reality, Washington did this so wealthy investors in illiquid private credit funds, which made bad loans to struggling companies on the verge of default, could have exit liquidity, thereby leaving retirees and pension funds holding the bag.

Now we learn that the US regime has been in bed with one of the worst culprits in the private credit industry, Blue Owl, and at least 33 members of the Trump administration have invested in Blue Owl’s funds.

Blue Owl's stock crashed 40% in the first three months of 2026, after it limited withdrawals amid a private credit crisis. This comes just a few months after the White House tried to dump these garbage investments on retirees and pension funds.

This should be a huge scandal, but unfortunately it's just a drop in the ocean of extreme corruption, shady financial schemes, and rampant insider trading in the US.

this is pretty common in history. workplace sabotage happens when workers have no collective means of fighting for better pay, or after the employer has ground down the union to be ineffective and docile. people act desperate when backed alone into a corner

“Do you see them? This is how they are now, but one thing remains to be done and that is to execute them”
