🇺🇸 3D-printed meat is now appearing on American grocery shelves, as engineered alternatives move from labs and restaurants into everyday retail. Five companies have received approvals for cultivated animal products, including chicken, salmon and pork fat, though most remain limited to restaurants and small-scale launches for now. Industry insiders say cultivated meat could become very common in supermarkets by the end of the decade. If everything wasn’t fake enough already, now you can look forward to artificial steak joining the grocery list. Writer: Mhedi t.co/hye1FkiG8f

And no, I don’t think Iran was behind it

No, the hijacking of the FlyDubai flight was NOT an Israeli false flag

@CarmineSabia Well said

🇸🇦🇮🇱 Extraordinary scenes unfolding between Israelis and Saudis in Tabuk... Israeli passengers from the diverted FlyDubai flight were seen receiving care from Saudi medical teams after the emergency landing. Saudi authorities confirmed the passengers were assisted at the airport while both injured pilots were taken to the hospital. Hours earlier, these passengers had no idea whether they would even make it safely to the ground... Writer: Samuel t.co/LBengfKDn9

Israel's Finance Minister called for annexing this Lebanese territory mentioned above, just yesterday: "I would like us to annex at lease as far as the Yello Line in Gaza and as far as the Litani River in lebanon. I think we need to go to war in Judea and Samaira (West Bank) to dismantle the Palestinian Authority" Ben Gvir, Israel's National Security minister, also called for the annexation of that land And Israel's Defense Minister said Lebanese civilians can never return to their homes that once existed, All this while homes are being demolished After seeing what happened in Gaza, what would you expect me to believe Jonathan I know you do not agree with the above statements. But what if they are dictating policy more than you realize, have you considered that possibility?

🇱🇧🇮🇱 Entire Shia towns in southern Lebanon are being ERASED from the map. Christian villages next door? Largely left standing... At some point, “security” stops explaining the pattern. So here’s the question nobody wants to touch: is this really about Hezbollah, or about reshaping the border and deciding who gets to return to this land? Writer: Samuel t.co/iF9zgMHDpi

🚨🇬🇧🇺🇸 The UK and U.S. have a local farmer to thank for alerting police to a potential terrorist attack... She was driving home from a party, when she spotted what appeared to be 3 abandoned white vans. They were blocking a country road. She turned her car around in confusion and then spotted them: Men in BALACLAVAS headed in the direction of the U.S. air base RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, UK. She sped away and called the authorities; the masked men were apprehended within 25 mins... INCREDIBLE!! 👏 Source: The Telegraph / Writer: Marie

🚨🇺🇸 🇮🇷 New leaked photos reportedly show a bomb shelter at a Kuwait base taken out by a direct drone hit The images show buildings flattened with debris thrown across the surrounding ground, the airfield wrecked, and one hardened bunker destroyed, which is the structure troops are trained to sprint into the second sirens go off. ABC obtained its own set this week covering three bases in Kuwait plus Prince Sultan in Saudi Arabia, where American aircraft were partially evacuated, and CBS ran leaked photos days earlier. The Pentagon has said nothing about the damage across eight countries and declined to comment. Eighteen Americans have been killed and 824 wounded since February, and a senior service member told ABC the bases are irreparably damaged and would take DECADES to rebuild. Troops keep leaking these photos because their own leadership will not say any of it out loud, and that is what should worry people most. When the men and women getting shot at trust reporters more than their chain of command, the Pentagon has already lost the argument about whether the public deserves to know.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 One tanker ETF is up 3,600 percent this year, which tells you everything about who is actually getting paid in this war... Breakwave's fund does nothing but hold shipping freight futures. It has gained more than thirty-six times its value since January, and when oil dipped over the summer it barely flinched. David Lin watched that and drew the obvious conclusion. Once shipowners start charging war prices, they don't stop. The numbers behind it are absurd. Moving oil out of the Gulf ran about $50,000 a day before February. It now runs close to a million, turning a ten-day voyage from half a million dollars into ten. The Fed hiked 25 basis points today, unanimously, and the first question put to Kevin Warsh was whether any of it matters when the Fed can't reopen a strait. He agreed that it can't. So the cost keeps moving down the chain until it reaches a grocery bill this winter. @davidlin_TV

Maye Musk’s new book is tearing up Amazon’s parenting chart 2 days after launch. Timeless is her story of starting over more than once. She's a single mom, a dietitian, and a model that's still working in her 70s. She has 3 children, and 1 of them is Elon. Readers are grabbing a late-life memoir about grit, work, and raising a family with almost no safety net. If it keeps moving like this, #1 is not a stretch. Writer: Lucas t.co/JMTWWP9a8m

🇺🇦🇷🇺 A supermarket in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, is reportedly on fire after tonight’s drone strikes. Acting governor Mykhailo Semikin said Russian drones hit a store on the right bank, and a shopping center is burning. No deaths reported so far. That region gets struck often; we're talking about the same city that already watched City Mall burn earlier this month. Shops, bus stops, food stocks. That is the pattern right now, hitting the places people still use. Writer: Lucas t.co/TFfQEaXbFV

🇹🇷🇸🇦🇵🇰 Saudi signed a shiny new defense pact last month and this week it is asking France, Britain and Egypt for extra air cover. Houthi drones and missiles have been hitting energy sites, airports and cities. One drone was shot down south of Mecca. Riyadh says the interceptor stash is running low after months of the Iran war already burned through Patriot rounds, and Washington is short too. The Mecca deal with Turkey and Pakistan was sold as a Muslim mutual defense club. Partners now say Saudi has not even triggered it, and the alliance is still being built.

🚨🇷🇺🇨🇳 Russia and China vetoed the panel that watches whether anyone is enforcing nuclear sanctions on Iran The vote ran 11 to 2 with Somalia and Pakistan abstaining, and two vetoes killed it anyway. The sanctions themselves survive, freezing Iranian assets abroad, barring arms deals and penalizing ballistic missile work, all of it snapped back last September when Britain, France and Germany pulled the trigger written into the 2015 deal. What dies is the expert panel that documented who was breaking them. Nobody in that chamber expected a different outcome. Moscow ships engineers to Iran's missile programs and Beijing buys the oil funding them, so the two governments most exposed by an enforcement report just deleted the report.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump dropped a cryptic warning on Iran He told Axios a “big decision” is coming, but he’s leaving everyone guessing about what happens next. Either escalation, through expanded U.S. military action or tighter economic pressure on Tehran, or the opposite: a breakthrough in negotiations. Is Trump is preparing the battlefield or the bargaining table? Writer: Val, Daniel t.co/SZE5EzU87Q

🚨🇮🇷 Iran set a tanker on fire for crossing Hormuz without its permission and promised destruction for the next one The IRGC Navy says it struck the Togo-flagged Trend after the ship attempted what Tehran calls illegal passage, leaving the vessel burning and dead in the water. The statement claims continued control of the waterway and warns that any unauthorized transit will end in the destruction of the offending vessel. Tehran has spent two months building a permission regime, vetting ships, drawing exclusion zones, preparing to file its own corridor with the UN, and this is that paperwork enforced with fire. Every owner now picks between applying to Iran for clearance or gambling a hull and a crew. Each burning tanker pushes more of them toward the first option, which is precisely the toll booth Iran demanded in June and never got. Source: IRGC Navy statement / Writer: Daniel

🇺🇸 The U.S. just broke a 67-year record and almost nobody is talking about it. The Census Bureau released its 2025 numbers this week, and poverty fell to 10.2%, the lowest since tracking began in 1959. 1.4 million people climbed out of poverty in a single year. Median household income jumped 2.6% to $87,460, an all-time high, and child poverty hit a record low of 13.4%. 2 straight years of falling poverty, and officials are already out celebrating. The mood on the ground says something else entirely, with Americans still telling pollsters the economy feels rough. Some of that is timing, since people are living through 2026 prices while this record is being set in last year's data. The rest is what the numbers leave out, with 26.7 million people going the whole year without health insurance, and a family of 4 only needing to clear $32,649 to count as out of poverty. Somebody will run on these numbers in November, and somebody will run against them. Source: U.S. Census Bureau / Writer: Daniyal

🇺🇸 Rampaging suspect torches police dog after storming a San Diego sex shop then lights himself on FIRE A wild foot chase kicked off after a man armed with a metal rod was spotted smashing car windows before barricading himself inside the store with flammable liquid and an incendiary device. Police sent K-9 Ryder inside, where the dog was burned on the neck and hind legs, before the suspect moved toward the front door with the device and an officer opened fire. The good news is that Ryder miraculously survived emergency treatment and is expected to recover. Writer: Bri t.co/DOu3hT8S75

🇺🇸🇸🇦🇨🇳 The U.S. State Department has approved a potential $24 billion sale of 48 F-35s to Saudi Arabia, although congressional approval remains another hurdle. Brandon Weichert rejects the argument that the sale should be blocked primarily because China could gain access to F-35 technology. His bigger concern is what China is already building. “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮 𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘦.” Newer J-20s and J-35s are increasingly competitive with their American counterparts while China is building them at a pace the U.S. may struggle to match. The technology race matters. The production race may matter more. @WeTheBrandon
