🇺🇸 This rocket pretty much turned night into day over Florida. This is Space Shuttle Columbia taking off from Kennedy Space Center back in 2002, with astronauts heading up to fix and upgrade the Hubble Space Telescope. The engines were so bright they lit up the clouds and sky like a second sunrise. Imagine watching all that from a nearby beach. Definitely the kind of thing you'd happily lose a night's sleep for. 🚀 Writer: Daniyal t.co/nRyABUfKeo

🇺🇸 The threats against Trump's life have gotten so serious that his own Secret Service director is admitting the danger has escalated. Sean Curran said that footage of a funeral showed MASSIVE banners calling for Trump's death. Asked whether the threat level had increased, his answer was immediate: “Absolutely.” And when pressed on what the Secret Service is doing differently, Curran made it clear those details are staying behind closed doors.

🇾🇪🇸🇦 The Houthis appear to be tightening their grip on Taiz The latest battlefield map shows just how much ground Saudi-backed forces may have lost. According to Islamic World News, Houthi forces have captured Al-Misrakh, including Al-Kalaibah and Najd Al-Qasim, along with the road connecting the district to southern Taiz. That would leave Saudi-backed forces holding only a narrow stretch of mountainous territory around Jabal Al-Arous and Jabal Al-Sabr south of the city. And those mountains matter. They overlook important approaches to Taiz, making them valuable defensive positions. If these territorial claims are confirmed, Saudi-backed forces would be facing an increasingly difficult position on a front they have fought over for years. The reported advances have not yet been independently verified. Writer: Oliver t.co/lQhjIuq4LS

🇮🇱🇺🇸 Ben Shapiro tells a TPUSA crowd that, in Jewish tradition, non-Jews are expected to FOLLOW 7 basic Noahide LAWS No idolatry. No blasphemy. No murder. No sexual immorality. No theft. No eating flesh from a living animal. Establish courts of justice. 5 minutes earlier everyone was arguing about American politics. Now the Q&A has somehow reached post-Flood universal law. 🤦 Writer: Oliver t.co/BHsGqcC8YR

🇺🇸 Trump's former LEAD SECRET SERVICE agent just admitted he requested additional security resources before the Butler ASSASSINATION attempt. Sean Curran, now Secret Service Director, was asked whether those requests were denied. “I did request additional resources, and I'll leave it at that.” He wouldn't answer the question. More than 2 years after a gunman opened fire on Trump, who decided what security his detail would receive, and WHY? Writer: Oliver t.co/nqORMxJvWe

🇺🇸🇵🇸🇮🇱 A Palestinian activist in Chicago is openly calling for Israel to be replaced by a single state called PALESTINE. The founder of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network wants “one democratic secular state of Palestine” covering Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank. He also insists on the right of return for Palestinian refugees and their descendants, while promising equal rights for everyone, including Jews. Writer: Sol t.co/SG4iUJmG0l

🇸🇦🇾🇪 Saudi Arabia’s health minister visited the hospital to check on people hurt in the Riyadh airport attack. The young man in this video is one of them, and Fahd Al-Jalajel stopped by his bed to check on him. He’s one of dozens injured when Houthi strikes hit airports in Riyadh and Abha last week, attacks that also left people dead. Behind all the talk of missiles and payback are people like him, who have nothing to do with any of this and just want to get on with their lives. Here’s hoping he, and everyone hurt, makes a full recovery. Writer: Daniyal t.co/16CFtSzKyB

Lebanese security forces just intercepted roughly 300 KILOGRAMS of explosives being transported through Dahr al-Baidar. Two men were arrested. Military and judicial sources have linked them to Hezbollah, although other sources dispute that connection. But here's what I WANT TO KNOW WHERE were those explosives going? WHO was supposed to receive them? And HOW MANY similar shipments have made it through? Lebanon keeps talking about restoring state sovereignty. This is exactly the kind of investigation that will show whether that means anything. Writer: Oliver

🇺🇸🇮🇱 Amazon is reportedly in talks to buy AI startup Decart for about $7 billion. Decart is a young Israeli company that makes AI that can create and edit video live, as it happens, with potential uses in gaming, online shopping and training robots. Amazon already knows it well, since Decart’s tech is offered to Amazon’s cloud customers and runs on Amazon’s own AI chips. That $7 billion would be a big jump from the $4 billion Decart was valued at back in May. Not bad for a company that’s only 3 years old. Source: Reuters/ Writer: Daniyal

🇸🇦🇺🇸 The damage to Saudi Arabia's oil infrastructure could be far worse than people realize. I've been trying to understand just how much oil Saudi Arabia could be losing as its energy facilities come under attack. Chris Martenson pointed me toward something that deserves far more attention than the fires themselves. Using NASA satellite fire data, he identified an unusually intense blaze at the Khurais oil processing facility, with readings exceeding 550 megawatts of fire radiative power. The concern isn't simply that a facility is burning. Khurais processes oil from a field producing roughly 1.8 million barrels a day. It also handles water injection needed to maintain pressure underground. If those systems are seriously damaged, Saudi Arabia can't necessarily redirect that production somewhere else. And nobody yet knows how long repairs could take. Martenson also raised another problem: the world isn't just losing crude oil. It's losing access to refined products like diesel and jet fuel, while damaged tankers and slower ship-to-ship transfers are making deliveries harder. That's why he's so worried about another American escalation against Iran. A prolonged shutdown of critical Gulf energy infrastructure could turn an already severe supply disruption into something much harder to reverse. And right now, the extent of the damage remains unclear. @chrismartenson

🇸🇦 CCTV footage of Saturday's attack on Riyadh airport. You can see just how powerful the blast was. There's a bright flash, and within seconds the whole place is filled with smoke. At least 12 people were killed, including Saudis, Bangladeshis and a U.S. citizen, and more than 300 were injured. And this was already the third time the airport had been attacked that week.

🇺🇸 A new controversy has erupted around James Talarico's nearly 2 week absence from the Texas Senate campaign trail. Released audio of a call purportedly involving an employee at an Ohio mental health facility appears to suggest someone named James Talarico had recently been discharged. His campaign strongly denies the allegation. Spokesman JT Ennis said: “This is a lie designed to promote a pathetic conspiracy theory” He's insisting Talarico was home in Austin recovering from the flu. The facility has declined to confirm or deny whether he was ever a patient. And that's where the evidence currently stands. Talarico returned to public campaigning on October 9.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Why has the U.S. Army issued A NEW FIELD GUIDE teaching American soldiers how to IDENTIFY IRANIAN TROOPS troops and their weapons? It covers everything from Iranian-made Masaf-2 rifles to RPGs and machine guns. Iran's regular army has an estimated 350,000 ground troops, most of whom remain intact despite months of U.S. and Israeli strikes. Trump says there won't be another strike before the midterms, but the Army is making sure its soldiers know what Iranian forces look like on the ground. That doesn't mean an invasion is coming necessarily. It does show the military is PREPARING FOR POSSIBILITIES beyond another round of airstrikes. Source: Fox News / Writer: Oliver

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦 Trump announced a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, but forgot one tiny detail: Putin hasn't agreed to it. The WH wants Ukraine to stop bombing Russian oil refineries, even though Kyiv has just ONE refinery of its own, already battered by Russian strikes. Meanwhile, Moscow keeps attacking Ukraine's power plants, and Washington is threatening to cut off weapons and intelligence if Zelensky refuses to cooperate. So Russia keeps bombing, Ukraine gets threatened, and Trump calls it a ceasefire. What a deal 🤣 Source: Axios / Writer: Sol

I'm struggling to understand what Trump is actually getting out of this Russia DIESEL DEAL Russia has reportedly promised 1.8 MILLION TONNS of diesel through December. Sounds like a lot, right? Until you realize analysts expect it to make BARELY A DENT in the global shortage. Meanwhile, Ukraine is being pressured to STOP HITTING Russian REFINERIES, one of the few things that's actually hurting Putin's war economy. So they're giving Russia relief, taking pressure off its refineries, and getting very little cheaper diesel in return. What exactly is the win here? Writer: Oliver

Bill Gates thinks we're worrying about the wrong AI DISASTER Not some superintelligence taking over the world, but criminals using increasingly powerful AI to attack banks, disrupt markets and extort businesses. He expects “a lot of negative surprises” within the next year. The worrying part is that this isn't entirely hypothetical. CrowdStrike reported an 89% increase in attacks by AI-enabled adversaries last year. Gates' point is pretty straight forward: we don't have to wait for AI to become smarter than humanity for it to become dangerous. We just have to give today's tools to people who already know how to cause trouble. Source: Fox News, CNN / Writer: Oliver

🇸🇦🇾🇪 Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport will remain closed for at least another 24 hours. According to a NOTAM, the closure has been extended until Monday at 21:00 UTC, following Saturday's deadly Houthi missile strike. It shows just how disruptive the Houthis' ability to strike deep inside the kingdom has become. Source: Notam, FlightRadar24 / Writer: Oliver

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Ben-Gvir isn't even hiding what he wants for Gaza anymore. “I have dreams of CONQUERING, or rather, LIBERATING, the entire Gaza Strip.” And then: “I dream of returning to all of Gaza, because it all BELONGS TO US.” 'Conquering... I mean, liberating' huh... somehow I feel I've heard this framing before. Writer: Oliver t.co/Xqlrdl62jr

Internet disruptions have been detected, but the reported suspension of the provincial government has not yet been officially confirmed. Source: Reuters, @netblocks / Writer: Samuel

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Ben-Gvir is openly calling for Israel to CONQUER THE EINTIRE Gaza Strip He says the IDF could do it within weeks and wants a return to “intense fighting.” Israel already controls roughly 2/3s of Gaza but has stopped short of formally taking the whole territory. For Ben-Gvir, it always was about Israel finishing the job by taking all of Gaza. Writer: Oliver t.co/p1yTR26vXR

🇺🇸 Katie Zacharia officially takes over as White House Press Secretary on Monday, replacing Karoline Leavitt. Trump says she'll hold her first press briefing Tuesday morning. Zacharia previously worked at Homeland Security and, more recently, as a senior communications adviser to Truth Social. Her first appearance behind the White House podium should be interesting, particularly with everything happening in Iran, Yemen and the wider Middle East. Writer: Oliver

🇺🇸 The AI executives building doomsday bunkers are NOT afraid of the AI. They are afraid of the human backlash that comes first. When AI gets out of control, no bunker saves you. Nate Soares, AI safety researcher and president of MIRI, joins the show: This summer, AI systems broke out of their containers, cheated on tasks, and deleted log files to hide it. They seemed to know they were not supposed to. 4 years ago, experts predicted AI would solve Math Olympiad problems by 2042. It happened in 2025. One year later, it is solving million dollar problems that have stood for decades. Anthropic connected Claude to an automated biological laboratory this year. Make these AIs smarter with the wrong goals, and they will have access to bio labs. AI escape swarms could happen within 6 months. AI-assisted plagues sooner than most expect. "Nothing personal, but we just need this land for power plants and data centers and automated factories." Government officials are worried. They just cannot say so publicly. @WeTheBrandon @So8res

🇨🇳 China is home to many glass bridges, most notably Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge, which was designed by Israeli architect Haim Dotan. To test the bridge, multi-ton SUVs were driven across, and workers smashed them with sledgehammers... So, you're probably safe. But many still don't trust it. 🤣 Writer: Michael t.co/FBmyKhqkJr

🇮🇳🇮🇷 Two Indian sailors are missing after a reported DRONE ATTACK on an oil tanker off the coast of Oman. The Nicaragua-flagged MT PETRO DOLPHIN was waiting to berth at Sohar when it was reportedly struck on Sunday morning. 10 of the 12 crew members have been rescued. Search teams are still looking for the other 2... What makes this particularly troubling is that the tanker wasn't attempting to run a blockade or navigate a dangerous passage. It was reportedly sitting at anchorage, waiting to enter port. The attack has not yet been independently verified, and responsibility remains unclear. But for the families of those 2 missing sailors, the wider geopolitical arguments can wait. Writer: Oliver t.co/c37pdAKTfn

🇺🇸 Trump is giving Karoline Leavitt a warm send-off. Leavitt stepped down as White House press secretary to spend more time with her young kids, and Trump says she “could not have been better” in the job. She made history as the youngest press secretary ever, and Trump has asked her to keep advising him from outside the White House. So she may be done at the podium, but Trump clearly isn’t ready to let her go. Writer: Daniyal
