Truth Social has become President Trump’s digital bunker. The failed social-media platform serves as a preview of the rest of his term. nymag.com/intelligencer/arti…

“It actually seems the only winning message in this country was to stand against H-1B visa fraud.” @SaraGonzalesTX explains why opposing H-1B visa fraud was vindicated as a winning issue in the midterm elections.

Kim Jung un reacting with visible shock during the unveiling of a bronze bust created by a local artist. The image appears to show a bronze bust of the North Korean leader being unveiled by a military officer, with Kim standing nearby. But the statue is anything but flattering, featuring unusually wide eyes and an exaggerated, awkward smile that bears little resemblance to official depictions of the leader.

Momen Kim Jong Un melihat patung perunggu yang menggambarkan dirinya di Korea Utara. Patung buatan seniman lokal itu memiliki mata melotot, senyum lebar, dan ekspresi wajah yang terlihat canggung. Momen pembukaannya pun menarik perhatian karena bentuk patungnya berbeda dari yang dibayangkan. 📸 reddit

The UNC bases in Japan provide the access and sustainment that help keep UNC ready to uphold the Armistice in Korea. I reaffirmed our commitment to regional security and the U.S.-Japan Alliance. Grateful for Minister Koizumi's partnership.

There's a reason the Korean War was immediately forgotten about. It necessitated a level of brutality nobody in the US wanted to talk about.

Why are the top riches of the Philippines all lazy? No one is an industrialist, just food producers and malls. God I hope a Pinoy Park Chung Hee rises into power and force these mfs to build some heavy industries.
Most modern billionaires are just so tacky. Go endow a library. Fund research and get your name on a cancer center. Sponsor an eccentric polymath who’s obsessed with marble. Build a museum. Fund public parks. Back climate research. Create something that outlives your ego.

Ukrainian forces have described North Korean soldiers as strong opponents on the battlefield In comparison to Russian conscripts, they reportedly refuse to surrender taking their own lives before capture, fight fanatically in groups and are relatively well trained. Ideology...

Foreign investors put $1.6 trillion into US financial assets in 2025. Nearly $700 billion went into stocks. South Korea sent more money into US equities than any other country. Dollar is now powered by foreign money chasing AI stocks they cannot buy at home. Dollar depends on 5 tech companies keeping investors excited. If those companies miss earnings or cut spending, that entire flow of money can reverse fast 4 big US tech companies spent about $410 billion on AI last year and plan to spend $725 billion in 2026. Without AI spending, US business investment would be shrinking. AI makes up 75% of GDP growth in Q1 2026. 5 companies now drive 60% of new business investment in US. If AI spending stays flat at current levels, yearly growth falls well below 1%. Take AI capex out of GDP numbers and US economy looks like it stopped growing back in 2024 Foreign investors pulled record $13.7 billion out of Asian stocks in July 2026 alone. Taiwan and South Korea lost most money. Investors sold Samsung and TSMC shares to buy Nvidia and Microsoft instead Foreigners dumped Asian stocks at fastest pace in over 5 years during first half of 2026. Money flows to US not because US economy is stronger but because AI profits sit inside handful of tech stocks and nowhere else. When those profits miss expectations, same money will rush back into Asian markets just as fast

Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden plan to fight as one force with 250 fighter jets. Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are coordinating HIMARS and building a shared defense line. Europe could deter Russia with less US help — Matti Pesu, Foreign Affairs. 1/

Trump 2.0 is "Writing" the "Rules" of the next *Implied*-IRBO through his success or failure... if he succeeds, then the "Trump Model" becomes THE Playbook for *all* Superpowers who aspire to consolidate their positions and survive-thrive into post-WW3 but if he fails, the "Trump Model" becomes a "Cautionary Tale" This is very important, because we are in a completely "New World" now... but a New World *Order* has yet to emerge Post-AI Singularity; 24/7/365 1:1:♾️ Real-Time Connectedness... "Reflexive-Recursivity" what works in this new "Environment" as "Micro-Climate" in Space-Time? and what doesn't? It's unclear... "Conventional Wisdom" says that you can't act like Trump 2.0 and win in the long-run, because Reputation matters others would argue that Reputation is a weak and viscous asset... and that Might = Right Some could argue the "Rules" of Power have not changed; others would argue that the "Rules" are completely changed... Some others could argue that the Rules were always in place, but that before AI and the Internet... history "bends" towards justice... with lots of latency... and fits and starts... and that nowadays, we are moving towards "Instant Karma" World Order Basically, nobody knows how this will play out... Not even ASI can "model" this out... Basically, Trump 2.0 Success or Failure is the ultimate test of "Theory of Power" in this New World if Trump succeeds, not only will *he* continue to push to *his* End Game but his Peers and Rivals will begin to adopt his Tactics and Playbook, as well... "Proof of Concept" Does Decorum matter? Does being an "Asshole" hurt you necessarily? Can Trumpism "win it all" and get away with it? Jury is out
President Donald Trump's trade war with Canada is a "lose-lose situation," former World Bank President Robert Zoellick says. "The bigger question is not who can be hurt more; it's the question of how we should try to figure out how North America can compete with others," he tells Compass Points host @nickschifrin. "When Canada grows, they buy more from the United States, much more than China does. When Mexico grows, they buy more from the United States." "We've got an administration that looks at everything in zero-sum power terms and even sort of childish statements, as opposed to how you make a win-win venture," he later added. Compass Points from PBS News analyzes prominent international affairs topics and America’s role in a shifting world, breaking down global conflicts, rising tensions, and their implications for U.S. interests.

20 years from now, Humanity will inherit a new "Class" of "Wisdom" and "Common Sense" building on the Ancient Wisdom of "Golden Rule" and "Karma" and Modern "Wisdom" from the field of Applied and Behavioral Economics... such as "Sunk Cost Fallacy" and "Supply and Demand" and so forth... All of this is rather Reflexively Intuitive to most of us now... but remember that it was not always so... and even the best of us must constantly get reminded that these Rules of Wisdom continue to be enforced... via "Re-Enforcement Learning" We have no idea what the next order even looks like... how to even "Interpret" it, with what human-cognizable frameworks and language It will take the next Kahneman and Tversky... to elevate these next-order hunches into science and then common knowledge What we are dealing with is likely a number of Meta-Entities that operate *through* us and AI We are returning to Mythology, because it turns out Mythological Perspective was "right" all along
<at each [increasing] level of complexity new properties appear, and the understanding of the new behaviors requires research which... is as fundamental in its nature as any other> ASI can’t predict the future, for many reasons AI is modeling the world based on ‘old data’ from a world before deep-penetration of AI we do not know how to model behavior of an entire global-scale ‘system' that is inter-connected 1:1:♾:1:1 in real-time with braided-lattice of distriubuted-information-ecotones of variable fidelity-integrity never with ‘perfect’… ‘vision’… anywhere inherently by definition and this ironic meta-awareness, once distributed world-wide amongst enough top-tier power holders render the board utterly “un”-predictable even performative-chaos to disrupt this new-field... does not grant you new-alpha as proven by the failure of Trump 2.0 to conquer the world by utilizing “Data Center of Geniuses”-powered OODA-Loop Sycophantic-AI-Maximalist-Chatbot-Psychosis the future belongs to *Shamans*

Russia has always been willing to go to full-scale war vs Ukraine, Poland, Romania, Baltics, Germany but Putin *really really* does not want to go to war vs USA or Turkey Putin is *prepared* to also fight France-UK if he has to... Therefore, Russian Federation Grand Strategy is always about the hard job of kicking out the US Military from Europe So a direct and immediate confrontation crossing the lines into NATO was never tenable It would always require all the stars aligning: - US finally reaching critical threshold on weapons stockpiles and production capacity - US sunk into Iran War Quagmire - Trump or Vance-like President who signal they would consider de-facto 0% Pentagon allocation to EUCOM if SHTF worldwide and even now that the stars did align for Putin... it isn't a "done deal" that we will just let him take Europe away from us... This is Open Heart Surgery in the middle of Armageddon Ground Zero Wildfire Technically, even we do not want to go to war vs Russia or China; just as they do not want to go to war vs us... We all know it would basically be end of the world and plus, we do not want that "Bad Blood" with Civilizational Superpowers aggressively limiting the Grand Strategic Optionality of our descendants... So it's tough... and it makes sense that Putin is bearing the cost of "discovery" because obviously, we retain the Incumbent Position of a Global Empire surrounding *both* Russia AND China yes, we are "weakened"... but we know they don't want to call our bluff so they need to make us move, to gain territory that we can't fight to keep... without fighting us directly We are poised to get the better end of this deal... structurally and Putin is the one "Russian Gangster" who is willing to say "fuck it" and start destroying the American Empire through de-facto attrition anyway It's a very expensive way to force us into "Tough Decisions"... for him but he sees it as the most viable path to achieving his goals first among them, kicking the US out of Europe
Putin pulled the plug on IRBO *before* America re-industrialized *locking-in* China as "World Factory" invading Ukraine, on a 50/50 bet "Kiev in 3 Days" vs Quagmire but he ALSO knew, from Bibi, that Iran War is inevitable and he ALSO knew, everything from Iran, begging for protection So he was willing to take the bet *clearly* since even Wildberries imploding nationwide and 1.5 million casualties is not making him blink! this was factored in as a cost of doing business "COGS" So he just had to call our bluff... because he knew we had to stop Iran from "Threshold" to DPRK-Parity levels of Credible Nuclear Deterrence and he is already anchored to "Long Wars" via the 10-year Chechan War he managed to kickoff his first decade in power yet we are "only" in year 4-5 of Ukraine, which is a "Must Have" for Putin So eventually, we had to make the bet and it looks like the result is Quagmire I mean, we could theoretically stabilize things from here on out but it has already revealed we are hitting Capacity... validated by Ukraine Air Defense So technically, within the "Ukraine Quagmire Branch" in which Putin does not "Kiev in 3 days" he is technically completely on track 4-5 years to finally force America's Hand on Iran we can't afford a 2 Theater War while we have no Industrial Base and rely on China to Replenish Weapons We could have waited it out longer, until Putin "called Uncle" first... but we went ahead, and he won a massive TRUNK of the End Game it's as if Russian Civilizational personfied as a Spiritual Meta-Orchestrator above the level of any Individual leader such as Putin un-intentionally "set us up" because if Putin been ULTRA SUCCESSFUL in Ukraine a la "Little Green Men" to annex Crimea if Putin were suddenly making massive territorial gains DURING Trump 2.0 Trump would not have gone ahead vs Iran Putin looks weak right now... right?

French "Far Right" would rather partition Germany together with Russia, than to fight Russia in war German "Far Right" would rather partition Poland together with Russia, than to fight Russia in war This is the deep structural reason why French vs German "Far Right" had epic falling out, leading to AfD exclusion from French-led European-wide coalition of "Far Right" parties Franco-German "Duopoly" would rather cede the Baltics in a "Strategic Retreat" and then position Poland as the "Next Ukraine"... than to fight Russia in war Current European Political Geography suggests inevitable movement towards deployment of multi-national forces vs Russia *immediately* no matter where Putin chooses to break the seal But the rise of European Far Right Parties that are "Pro-Russia" signals Putin has a pathway to getting them to back down way sooner to boot, while Far Right plays "Pro-Russia" Russians, like the Jewish RW, know they are un-reliable in the long run suicidal for both Slavic and Jewish interests, and not only Muslim interests These parties merely indicate to Putin, who is operating 100% in "WW3 Mode", that Europe is cracking Putin's entire Civilizational Mantra is defeating Nazism think about it
This 1980s graph on French tactical nukes deployment is a good reminder that the French doctrine in case of Soviet attack was "First, turn Germany into a lake of fire, "
