⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇱 NEW - U.S Ambassador Mike Huckabee:
Israel didn’t "attack" Qatar, they just "sent a missile" into their country aimed at "one person"
"Unfortunately, there were some people who were near that missile strike that were injured or killed from it…"

And all with a straight face, impressive
And this fact should be celebrated, else there'd be further funds to launder through the Ukraine war
⚡️🚨 NEW - Bari Weiss says she wants to use her new perch at CBS News to “redraw the lines of what falls in the 40 yards of acceptable debate” in American political and cultural life. She says the aim is to sideline voices like Hasan Piker, Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes, and elevate “charismatic” figures such as Alan Dershowitz and Dana Loesch who reflect “where the vast majority of Americans actually are.”

Not that Ukraine isn't a massive money laundering scheme, but this story is questionable and the land company only shows the listing as 'sale pending'
Greenpeace will oblige if sufficiently compensated 😉

Stomach churning
SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce has just delivered one of the strongest defences of financial privacy we’ve seen from a US regulator.
Speaking at the Science of Blockchain Conference hosted at UC Berkeley, she challenged the idea that all financial systems must be subject to surveillance.
She argued that open source immutable protocols, available to anyone and controlled by no one, should not be forced to comply with laws designed for financial intermediaries. She made the case that building neutral infrastructure is not a crime, and that writing open source code should not make you a target.
While the headlines call it a speech about crypto, her remarks point directly at Bitcoin.
She described “an immutable, open source protocol… available for anyone’s use in perpetuity,” and argued that “requiring that it comply with financial surveillance measures is fruitless.” She added that we should not “ask peers transacting with one another, where no intermediary exists, to collect and report information on each other,” and warned that doing so “would deputize us to surveil our neighbors... a practice antithetical to a free society.”
No other digital asset fits that description. Bitcoin runs without intermediaries, cannot be altered by committees, and allows individuals to hold and transfer value without permission.
It was a clear and necessary signal to policymakers, developers, and the public that financial privacy is not a loophole, but a principle that deserves protection.

Thanks for the summary.
Worth noting that she caveats as her opinion rather than SEC's but encouraging nonetheless, especially as European policy makers lurch toward communist dictatorships.
Political influence pays well with the Getty dynasty
😂 I don't think I could apply such close scrutiny, just adopted a la-la-la it'll be fine approach! That said I do recall an unusually tall air hostess who had to crane her neck to fit in the cabin!
Agreed! It was a surreal experience. More fall-off than takeoff.

⚡️🇬🇧 NEW - Dr. John Campbell raises urgent concerns about the UK government’s planned sun dimming experimentation, warning it could sabotage agricultural yields, trigger famine on "a biblical scale", and destabilise weather systems—all without public consent.

He's bang on. The almost complete lack of meaningful discussion in the press is telling, so good on John. Let's all put up solar panels then block out the sun! It's insane.
It really is. Though they could do a lot of damage in a desperate state!
I see your wallet, and I raise you... 
Notice the body language coming from Netanyahu when Trump said he was having direct talks with Iran and he said he did not want war...
What are you seeing?
It sure seems like he is uncomfortable with what Trump is suggesting here...
Anyone claiming Trump is controlled, doesn't understand him at all.
He is a master of playing the game.
