TECHNICAL PROBLEMS
When technology becomes a weapon of silence.
Somewhere over Ukraine, an interceptor races through the darkness toward an incoming drone. Its mission is to protect lives. Its connection is the difference between seeing the threat and losing it.
Then a speed limit changes everything.
A hundred miles an hour.
Beyond that, the connection can fail.
But cross a border, and the same technology reportedly operates under different restrictions.
Same satellites. Same equipment. Different rules.
And suddenly, the most important question isn’t whether the technology works.
It’s who decides when it works—and for whom.
When a nation is fighting for its survival, access to critical technology is not simply a matter of convenience. It can determine whether a threat is intercepted or reaches its target.
Companies point toward governments. Governments offer little explanation. And the people depending on these systems are left facing consequences they did not choose.
This is bigger than one company, one country, or one conflict.
We have built a world where privately developed technology can become essential to national defense, emergency response, communication, and human survival.
Yet the power to restrict that technology can remain concentrated in remarkably few hands.
Technical Problems is a protest song about that imbalance of power.
Not an accusation against an unnamed individual. Not a claim to know what happened behind closed doors.
A demand for accountability when decisions have consequences measured in human lives.
Our concert takes that question into an immersive world of satellites, fractured connections, illuminated borders, and thousands of electronic bracelets responding to signals they cannot control.
Because the question belongs to everyone.
Who controls the connection?
Who draws the line?
And who gave the order?
Technical Problems — An original protest-rock song and cinematic concert film.

Arrived in Norway with my team. Important meetings are scheduled: a trilateral with Jonas Gahr Støre and Alex Stubb, a bilateral with Steve Witkoff, and a meeting of all four of us. I will also have an audience with King Haakon VIII of Norway and a meeting with the Storting. We are maintaining all contacts that can help bring peace. We will also discuss strengthening our air defense and joint production. I am grateful to everyone who supports Ukraine and a dignified path to peace.

“When people start singing Bella Ciao in the streets, you know their anger has turned into a movement. 🇮🇹"
🇮🇹 Italy is rising! Protests have been reported in Milan, Turin, Bologna, Brescia and Bergamo over rising living costs, low wages and government policies.
When the streets sing Bella Ciao, the world listens. 🔥
Bella Ciao isn't just a song. It's a symbol of resistance.

Jeff Bezos says AI could let Americans support a family working just three days a week.
He also predicts more single-income households, and even a labor shortage instead of mass job losses.
Amazon has cut about 30,000 jobs since late 2025.

Zelensky to the U.S.:
Just give us back Starlink.
Of course, if they don't, we will survive.
We will not stop defending ourselves even without it.
But why?
I can't understand the reasons for limiting us, for not allowing us to defend ourselves.
I think it's a mistake.

Well, this post struck a nerve.
Calls for a "Black Monday" stock market crash are trending again. Last night, we took the opposite view.
As with every market prediction we make, there are thousands of people urging others to "fade" us.
But take a look at the chart below. It shows every time "Black Monday" has trended on social media since May 2025.
History suggests that calls for a "Black Monday" crash have repeatedly presented some of the best buying opportunities.
And as we outline in our analysis below, the majority of stocks in the S&P 500 have already experienced a bear market, EVEN AS the index trades near record highs; a largely unprecedented occurence.
