The Trump administration, citing pro-terrorist and anti-Semitic activities on college campuses, threatened to defund universities harboring such actions and to punish involved students through imprisonment, deportation, or expulsion. This culminated in the cancellation of $400 million in federal grants to Columbia University. The administration’s actions, targeting a student of Algerian and Palestinian origin, appear ethnically motivated and align with broader immigration enforcement goals. This raises concerns about the suppression of free speech and the targeting of legal immigrants.

A massive drone attack on Moscow, the largest since the war began, involved over 337 drones targeting the capital region, resulting in two deaths and significant infrastructure damage. This attack, launched just hours before peace talks in Saudi Arabia, was interpreted by a Ukrainian official as a signal to President Putin to accept a ceasefire. The attack disrupted Moscow’s airports and inflicted damage on residential buildings and other infrastructure. Ukraine routinely targets Russian infrastructure, but this unprecedented scale underscores Kyiv’s ongoing efforts and may influence the upcoming negotiations.

Carlos Slim’s cancellation of a staggering $22 billion in Starlink orders following Elon Musk’s controversial comments is undeniably a major development. The swiftness of Slim’s response—initially canceling a $7 billion order within minutes of Musk’s tweet, and then the entire $22 billion plan an hour later—highlights the gravity of the situation and the immediate impact of Musk’s words. This wasn’t just a financial transaction; it represents a significant blow to Starlink’s expansion plans.
The cancellation signifies more than just lost revenue for SpaceX. Losing América Móvil, a giant telecom company, as a partner across 25 countries is a strategic defeat, handing over significant market share to competitors in China and Europe.… Continue reading
Following his Liberal Party’s election victory, Prime Minister-designate Mark Carney delivered a strong rebuke of Donald Trump’s administration, characterizing the U.S. as untrustworthy and vowing continued retaliatory tariffs until the U.S. demonstrates respect. Carney directly addressed Trump’s threats of tariffs and potential annexation, framing them as attempts to weaken Canada. He emphasized Canada’s unwavering resistance, citing the country’s willingness to maintain tariffs and even using a hockey analogy to illustrate Canada’s determination to prevail. This firm stance, mirroring sentiments among other Canadian politicians, has seemingly bolstered the Liberal Party’s standing.

A new study reveals that microplastics significantly reduce photosynthesis in various plant species, impacting crop yields by 4-13.5% annually over the next 25 years. This reduction in photosynthesis, averaging 7-12%, could severely impact global food security and exacerbate climate change by hindering carbon sequestration. The study underscores the urgent need for a global treaty on plastic pollution, as even a 13% reduction in environmental microplastics could mitigate photosynthesis loss by 30%. Failure to act will lead to far-reaching ecological damage.

Alex Jones, of Infowars, reported the death of his colleague, Jamie White, in Austin, Texas, alleging a brutal murder near White’s home.

Jones blamed Austin’s Democratic district attorney and the Democratic Party for the death, citing their alleged failures to control crime. Infowars’ history of fabrications necessitates caution in accepting this account without further independent confirmation.

Trump also anticipates a US-Ukraine minerals agreement and the possible resumption of US intelligence sharing with Ukraine. His shifting perspective contrasts sharply with earlier statements favoring Russia’s negotiating power.
