3/ Binance says ~$6.3B was hit in the largest crypto theft on record; ~$3B is frozen. TRM Labs and Chainalysis blame North Korea's TraderTraitor (not officially confirmed). Stolen crypto has funded Kim's weapons. That's a US security problem. bbc.com/news/articles/cwg7xp…
2/ Taiwan says 53 Chinese ships, 34 of them warships incl. the carrier Liaoning, are spread from southern Japan to off the Philippines, calling the threat to all three "obvious." Japan, Taiwan and the Philippines need full US backing. japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/1…
🧵 Today's geopolitics 1/ Saudi air defenses shot down two Houthi ballistic missiles fired at Riyadh Thursday night; falling debris injured one person. Iran's proxy keeps hitting a key US partner and the heart of world oil supply. khaleejtimes.com/world/gulf/…

Support for the UN's yearly anti-embargo resolution on Cuba fell to 130 votes from 165 in 2025. Argentina, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Paraguay voted no; Germany and Italy abstained. Waltz: "Cuba Libre!" The hemisphere is picking our side. upi.com/Top_News/World-News/…
North Korea fired 10+ short-range ballistic missiles from Wonsan toward the Sea of Japan, flying about 250 km, days after Seoul offered border talks. US and South Korean forces tracked it from the prep stage. Washington, Seoul and Tokyo stand together. aerotime.aero/articles/north…
AP: US officials told Mideast allies to be ready for possible new strikes on Iran after the Nov. 3 midterms, and for Tehran to hit back at energy sites. Trump: no final decision, but "anything's possible." Tick tock. rte.ie/news/2026/1029/159715…
🧵 America showed up. Beijing phoned it in. PHILIPPINES: At ASEAN defense talks in Cebu, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth proposed a new US-ASEAN Framework for Defense Cooperation for the "critically important" years ahead. channelnewsasia.com/asia/heg…
4/ Japan's defense chief Koizumi met Hegseth on the sidelines; they discussed an "effective denial defence in the First Island Chain" and munitions production. Manila says China's military and coast guard presence nearly doubled in September. channelnewsasia.com/asia/heg…
5/ My take: America sent a Cabinet secretary. Beijing sent whoever was already in town. Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines: one team, and the bully of the South China Sea can't even be bothered to show up. rappler.com/philippines/teod…
🧵 He lost, and he left. BRAZIL: Sen. Flávio Bolsonaro left the country after losing Sunday's presidential election to Lula, as a Supreme Court deadline to surrender his passports ran out. Sources told Reuters the passports were canceled. nbcnews.com/world/brazil/fla…
3/ Trump on Wednesday: "I would approve. I think they're fine people. The election was very strange." Lula called the exit "shameful" and said he should have stayed and proved his innocence. nbcnews.com/world/brazil/fla…
4/ Why it matters for America: Lula already accuses Washington of colluding with the Bolsonaros, so expect the rift between the two biggest countries in the Americas to deepen. This is our hemisphere, and Washington decides who walks through its door. nbcnews.com/world/brazil/fla…
🧵 Tehran's proxies took a swing at the Saudi oil heartland. SAUDI ARABIA: Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis claim they hit Ras Tanura, the kingdom's biggest refinery (550,000 bpd), with a ballistic missile. Riyadh hasn't confirmed a hit. al-monitor.com/originals/202…
4/ UNCONFIRMED: the Houthis also claim strikes on the Saudi defense ministry, Abha airport and military jets at Najran. No Saudi confirmation of any of it. al-monitor.com/originals/202…
5/ My take: the Houthis are Tehran's mail-order air force, and Saudi air defense keeps returning to sender. Our Gulf partners shouldn't have to play goalie forever. The road to quiet in Riyadh runs through Tehran. straitstimes.com/world/middl…
