He also seems to have lost the ability to stand for prolonged periods of time. He speaks while seated as he did in a recent rally far more often and in situations where he would never do that before. No matter what you think of Trump it is absolutely a national security issue of the greatest magnitude, to have the one person who can with a single decision end the world as we know it in anything less than a rational, fully cognitive, state of awareness.

White Army soldiers back in 1864 rode up on 500 Cheyenne and Arapaho civilians who thought they were under US government protection due to a recent treaty. Instead, those troops murdered over 200 innocent people at the Sand Creek Massacre. This should be in every US history book!

BREAKING: Saudi Arabia announces a full shutdown of its East-West crude oil pipeline, which was attacked in multiple locations across the Riyadh and Madinah regions on Thursday morning, with the damage being addressed, per the Ministry of Energy. This comes as initial reports from diplomatic channels say the pipeline has suffered catastrophic damage in at least 8 locations, after satellite data showed a fire burning along the pipeline route southeast of Medina with a black smoke plume now 115 km long. The pipeline, the kingdom's only export route that does not pass through the Strait of Hormuz, has a capacity of 7 million barrels per day. Nothing is now moving through it.

your brain can't tell the difference between something you vividly imagine and something that's actually happening to you. neuroscientists call it episodic future thinking. most people only use it to rehearse failure and call it "being realistic." that's not caution, it's self sabotage on repeat. flip it. visualize the outcome you actually want, with real emotion, and your brain starts building the neural pathway for it. it starts filtering reality for evidence that matches. the future isn't something that happens to you. it's being built inside your mind right now, whether you're doing it on purpose or not.

Scott Jennings: "They should follow the law, but let's not get our knickers in a twist here." Leigh McGowan: "Yeah, let's not get our knickers in a twist over child rape. Why are you talking like that? It's insane."

Irán en un gesto de humillación hacia Estados Unidos, acaba de publicar un video del submarino no tripulado que les secuestraron en el Estrecho de Ormuz. Para provocar a Donald Trump, dijeron que ahora lo van a estudiar para adquirir la tecnología y que después se la van a compartir a Rusia y a China. Los persas están torciendo completamente la guerra psicológica. Se prepararon años para esto.

WILSON: In 1987, Trump made his first trip to Moscow, and while he was there, something happened. No one knows what. He came back and immediately placed a paid ad in New York Times saying we need to get out of NATO, that we’re paying too much. It was Russian talking points 101. At that moment, something happened in Trump’s brain. Whether it was kompromat, Trump’s unsophisticated nature, or Russians simply persuading him that he could do business in Russia and build a Trump Tower in Moscow, whether it was venality or kompromat, Trump changed, and he's never abandoned that view since 1987.

Native American chief says "we didn't have words like UFOs and Aliens", they were Star people and have been here A long time. Many Native American traditions describe celestial visitors and ancestors known as "Star People" or "Sky People" rather than modern technological terms like UFOs. Numerous Native Nations, including the Lakota, Hopi, and Zuni, pass down oral histories that view beings from the stars as relatives, teachers, or ancient ancestors. Rather than physical spacecraft or alien entities in a modern sci-fi sense, these encounters are deeply integrated into traditional worldviews, ceremonies, and origin stories. Traditional communities lived with clear, dark night skies and an intimate relationship with the natural world, leading to detailed tracking and storytelling regarding constellations and celestial events.

The President of the United States is at war with you. He’s trying to disenfranchise you, he’s trying to take away your vote, he’s trying to steal the midterms. You need to accept this horrible truth, and you need to fight back/retaliate against him. So for starters, when voting this year: 1. Use drop boxes. 2. Vote early in person. 3. If voting by mail, put your ballot in the mail at least 2 wks before Election Day. 4. Share these instructions with everyone you know. He’s at war with us. We must be at war with him. And defeat him.

⚡ Nikola Tesla was right. The universe isn’t solid — it vibrates. Quantum physics now shows reality is built not from matter, but from vibration and waves. Nikola Tesla once said, “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” Far from a metaphor, his insight aligns strikingly with what modern physics has revealed. At the quantum level, reality isn’t made of solid particles but of vibrating energy fields. Every particle—from electrons to protons—has its own frequency, and these wave patterns determine everything from chemical bonds to the colors we see. Light, heat, and sound are all forms of energy defined by vibration and frequency. Even spacetime itself isn’t still. In 2015, scientists confirmed that black holes can create ripples—gravitational waves—that travel across the cosmos, carrying energy through the very fabric of the universe. Tesla may not have had the equations, but his intuition was remarkably prescient: everything, from atoms to galaxies, moves in patterns of vibration and resonance.

A whistleblower just disclosed that USPS is secretly enacting Trump's order to restrict mail-in ballots: "If even one bar code on one single ballot in a bulk-mailing of 10,000 ballots fails to properly scan during the verification process, the entire batch is rejected and sent back to the state - effectively stopping the ballots from being mailed to voters."

I first read Tolstoy on a fall afternoon. I opened "Anna Karenina" and found a man who wrote as if he were sitting beside me. He spoke of love, shame, hope, and the long work of becoming human. He did not dazzle me with cleverness. He showed me men mowing a field at dawn, a beautiful woman, a proud man suddenly afraid of dying. Later, when I read "War and Peace" Tolstoy taught me that history is not only battles and emperors, but also a family at supper, a girl at a piano, and a soldier thinking of home. Tolstoy's money and fame did not save him. He eventually gave up comfort and asked the only question that still matters: how shall I live so that I do not wound another soul? Because of Tolstoy, I try (and often fail) to walk more slowly. I put down my phone when I am with other and look longer at their faces. When I am harsh, I remember Levin in the hay - I remember Levin with Kitty. When I am vain, I hear Ivan Ilyich at the end. Tolstoy did not make my life easier. He made it deeper. He is great because he loved people enough to tell the truth about them and about me.

Former astronaut Ron Garan returned from space convinced that humanity is “living an enormous lie.” During his 178-day mission aboard the International Space Station in 2011, spending nearly six months in orbit and covering over 71 million miles, Garan experienced the transformative “Overview Effect.” From 250 miles above Earth, the planet appeared as a single, delicate blue marble suspended in the void, with no visible borders, nations, or divisions. Political lines vanished; instead, he saw a fragile, interconnected biosphere wrapped in an astonishingly thin atmosphere, the sole protective layer sustaining all life against the deadly vacuum of space. This perspective shattered his prior worldview. He observed an iridescent, teeming world of life but no trace of the global economy that humans prioritize. Garan realized the “enormous lie” we perpetuate: the illusion that we are separate from one another, from nature, and from the planet itself. Our systems treat the Earth’s life-support mechanisms, air, water, ecosystems, as mere subsidiaries of the economy, when the orbital view reveals the opposite truth: the planet comes first, then society, then economy. In his words, this realization highlighted how crises like climate change, deforestation, and biodiversity loss stem from this fundamental misperception of separation. Garan argues that embracing this unified, fragile reality, seeing ourselves as crew members on “Spaceship Earth”, is essential for collective survival and effective global stewardship. The view from space didn’t just change his outlook; it underscored an urgent call for humanity to realign priorities with the undeniable interconnectedness of our shared home.
