Beat #3 Texas A&M
Beat #18 Michigan
Beat #1 Ohio State
Beat #14 Tennessee

Not many other schools with schedules as difficult as the Longhorns.

Texas has 5 top-ten wins in their last 15 games.
There are certain P4 teams who won’t even play 5 top-ten teams in the next decade.

NEW: Scott Presler allowed multiple out of state GOP operatives to use his home in Pennsylvania to vote in the '24 election. Those operatives then left the state. Election lawyers say this could be in violation of PA voting laws.

More reporting suggesting that Musk does indeed have his finger on Starshield's operability. Quite a lot of power for a ketamine-addicted trillionaire in bed with hostile foreign regimes. You might even say this endangers U.S. national security. wsj.com/world/trump-called-m…

“The Dutch government had hacked into Jared Kushner’s phone and monitored him as he accessed a Dubai-based bank account.
What was odd, the source said, was that the money in the account—hundreds of millions of dollars—had come from a bank in Azerbaijan. Most importantly, Kushner appeared to have transferred significant amounts of money from the Dubai account to other individuals, including a warlord, a mercenary and a one-time hit man”
An exclusive excerpt from Princes and Thieves: Jared Kushner and Mohamed bin Zayed’s Secret Plot to Remake the Middle East examines how bank accounts linked the president’s son-in-law—and former senior adviser—to Israel, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia.

What so many Ukraine supporters in Washington think but won't say publicly: Zelensky mishandled Trump's demand that he stop bombing Russian refineries—and then made it worse by going after Trump publicly.
My latest.

Wow! We actually have a foreign agent working (“volunteering”) for the United States. That foreign agent is married to the President’s daughter.
If you don’t see anything wrong with this, then you have been absorbed by the cult.
Kushner also failed to disclose himself as an agent of a foreign government, having been paid nearly $2 billion in total by foreign leaders. trib.al/OTkGEv6

Benny Melendez, the owner of a small construction company in South Texas, says he’s been forced to install fencing at job sites to protect his workers from ICE.
“It’s embarrassing for the land of the free, to have to do this,” Melendez told @camiloreports.
Unable to find workers, Melendez, a 2024 Trump voter and 2020 Biden voter, says he plans to vote for Democrats in the midterm elections.

Russian interference in Texas Race Exposed. No Russian Hoax. A bitter reality that Putin is now rewarding Republicans who are useful idiots to the Russian government. Musk sabotages Ukraine. Russia pays him back.

Bucha. It was a genocide, recognized by everyone. They buried hundreds of people. They tortured people. We found the grave. There were, I believe, around 500 people. When we liberated those towns near Kyiv, there emerged this, you know, this kind of hatred for the Russians, right at that moment. Not even at the moment when they started the full-scale war. Back then nobody understood what it really was yet. People understood what this war was and what Putin did personally when we found those mass graves of tortured adults, children. I mean they didn't just kill them, they tortured and killed them.
When we liberated Bucha, I said, bring every journalist here. Don't touch anything, just bring the journalists. The whole world simply has to see this. Imagine finding a mass grave in the U.S. or in Britain, God forbid, with 500 tortured people, adults, kids, dogs, animals shot dead. I mean, they held hunting sprees there from military vehicles. People were running, they were shooting, just hunting, playing games. They literally just played with people, like slavery. So how, after this, can you listen to Putin? And how, after this, can you forgive?

CNN reported Kushner's firm held the largest stake in Phoenix Financial, and the NYT reported the Lukoil bid involving the Al-Khayyat brothers and Sheikh Tahnoon. Those concern current deals. Cole's allegations concern 2018 to 2020. What connects them is the same Gulf financial network recurring around Kushner's diplomacy. A book can make that claim, and only documents can prove it.
Vanity Fair published an excerpt Thursday from Matthew Cole's forthcoming book Princes and Thieves, alleging that Dutch military intelligence watched Jared Kushner's iPhone during Trump's first term and saw him access a UAE bank account holding hundreds of millions of dollars routed through Azerbaijan. Cole writes that the rulers of Saudi Arabia and the UAE placed at least $2 billion into accounts for Kushner, and that he promised MBZ he would push their agenda with Trump in return. Kushner denies all of it.
The mechanism Cole describes is layered. Russian military intelligence hacked the phone first. Dutch intelligence then recruited a GRU operative, found screenshots of the device on a Russian server, and exploited a flaw to see his screen from early 2018. Cole says one source described Kushner moving money to a warlord, a mercenary and a former hit man. Roughly $750 million allegedly sat in a UAE charity account, and about $1 billion reached Israel's central bank, with Netanyahu requiring advance notice of transactions. Four senior Trump officials reportedly knew of no presidential authorization for Kushner's foreign-account access.
The case rests on anonymous sources, and Cole says he first found the story "preposterous." Kushner's statement says "the above never happened," that the author offered no bank statements, wire records or account numbers, and that Vanity Fair published without verifying. His lawyer told Cole "there are no accounts and never were." Nothing outside the book has confirmed the central claim.
This sits alongside separate reporting we covered, not in the same category. CNN reported Kushner's firm held the largest stake in Phoenix Financial, and the NYT reported the Lukoil bid involving the Al-Khayyat brothers and Sheikh Tahnoon. Those concern current deals. Cole's allegations concern 2018 to 2020. What connects them is the same Gulf financial network recurring around Kushner's diplomacy. A book can make that claim, and only documents can prove it.

BREAKING: Dutch spies hacked Jared Kushner's iPhone and watched him access a Dubai bank account holding hundreds of millions funneled from Azerbaijan, part of at least $2 billion MBS and MBZ placed for him after he promised to push their agenda with Trump, per a Vanity Fair excerpt.
"Jared was looking for shortcuts in his diplomacy. He promised MBZ that he'd push their agenda with Trump if they participated in a fund. He wanted normalization with Israel so that business could take off," a source who knew the arrangement said.
The money was meant to redraw the region's map and lock in normalization with Israel. Roughly $1 billion of it was deposited in Israel's Central Bank for Kushner, with Netanyahu requiring dual-key approval on any transfers.
The two royals initially discussed more than $10 billion for a shared slush fund. That narrowed to roughly $2 billion deposited into accounts Kushner could access, including roughly $750 million at First Abu Dhabi Bank under a UAE charity used as cover for covert operations.
The reveal comes as Kushner is deeply involved in Iran war diplomacy, where Iran has accused him and Steve Witkoff of pocketing $9 billion through market manipulation, using insider knowledge of the talks to trade oil futures, energy stocks, and prediction markets.

When Trump started his war with Iran, 1,300 military family members had to flee Bahrain under missile fire. Now they can’t go back, and the Navy told them to find a new home somewhere in the US. Families are burning through savings, some tens of thousands of dollars, while they bounce between hotels and short-term rentals waiting on reimbursements that never seem to come.
This is the cost of a war no one planned how to end, or even properly begin.

Three waves of ballistic missiles have been launched at Kyiv by Russian “humanitarians” since yesterday evening. They used 21 missiles. Unfortunately, numerous sites across the city have been hit and damaged: ordinary residential buildings, energy facilities, infrastructure at one of the railway stations and the metro, shopping malls, and businesses. Even a monastery is among the damaged sites. Our emergency services are working at all the affected locations. Twelve of our regions came under Russian attack overnight. In Kyiv and across the regions, 34 people were injured, including five children. As of now, two people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones.
Almost immediately after another round of talks, Russia launched a pointed attack. This means there has been no real change in its attitude toward everything that is happening. It is important to keep trying to find the right solutions to end this war. But when Russia responds to negotiations with ballistic missiles, real pressure on Russia is needed to bring about different steps – steps toward ending the killing. Stronger air defenses and the rapid delivery of missiles, the ability to destroy ballistic missile launchers, sanctions over the war – all of this must be in place. I am grateful to everyone who sees the situation for what it is and acknowledges the reality. The aggressor deserves to be treated accordingly. Ukraine deserves support. People's lives deserve protection. Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine!
