🇵🇱 Poland says it may have STOPPED AN ASSASSINATION PLOT against PM Tusk and DM Kosiniak-Kamysz Police detained a man in his 60s in Lower Silesia after analyzing online material. Officials say the threat was serious enough to trigger an emergency counterterrorism meeting, and investigators are also checking for possible foreign-state involvement. Poland is NOT treating this as another anonymous threat. They moved fast because they believed someone might actually try to carry it out. Source: UBH / Writer: Oliver

Elon wants to meet his Chinese doppelgänger, Yilong Ma. 😂 He's not entirely convinced the guy is real, but with 1.4 billion people in China, someone MUST look almost exactly like him. Now he wants to invite his lookalike onstage. Two Elons in one room. Let's make it happen! Anybody know a guy? 👏 Writer: Oliver t.co/95kvzDprho

🇮🇱🇺🇸 WATCH this dude screaming and rambling about Trump and the Epstein files and Israel First, while Shapiro tries his best to argue reasonably against him Only to later just tell him to "shut the f*ck up" 😂 Honestly, "read a book, get a job and do something useful with your life" is serious advice for the guy.

🇺🇸 How laughably performative! James Talarico has just discovered that capitalism, white supremacy and climate change are ALL PART of the same problem. One very convenient villain, isn't it. I'm surprised he hasn't blamed capitalism for his 12-day flu recently... Writer: Oliver t.co/zJ6a6ympyN

🇺🇸🇵🇦 The U.S. military has been making some pretty big deliveries to earthquake-hit Panama. After Friday's 7.7 quake damaged roads and bridges, getting supplies to some communities hasn't been easy. So U.S. Chinook helicopters have been flying in with water, food, and medical tents, working alongside Panamanian troops. And they've moved quite a lot already. More than 54,000 cases of water and 50,000 cans of food. The helicopters land wherever there's room, troops unload everything by hand, and then they're off to get the next load.

Meta's chief AI officer Alexandr Wang says @ElonMusk taught him something that helped shape Meta's AI strategy You don't necessarily need thousands of engineers to move fast. You need a small group of exceptionally talented people, very little hierarchy, and the freedom to get things done. Wang says he brought that idea to Mark Zuckerberg, who embraced it as a central part of their approach to AI. Meta, a company with enormous resources, is now deliberately borrowing from the way Elon builds small, highly technical teams. At some point, adding more people stops making you faster. And in AI, where the technology can change dramatically in a matter of months, the speed of a decision can matter as much as the resources behind it. Source: @davidsenra / Writer: Oliver

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The U.S. could strike Iran again, but what comes after? We had an interesting conversation with former CIA operations officer Charles Finfrock, who thinks Washington may be preparing another major round of strikes against Iran. And unlike some of my other guests, Charles believes a concentrated 72-hour campaign could do serious damage, especially if coordinated with Israel. He wants the U.S. to target Iran's leadership, military command structure, missile capabilities and the security forces keeping the regime in power. But our disagreement really began when we talked about what happens afterward. Charles believes removing the regime could give Iranians a chance to determine their own future. Yet he also acknowledged that Iran could end up looking like Libya, with prolonged instability and no functioning democracy emerging anytime soon. That admission stuck. We've already seen what happened in Iraq and Libya. Removing a government is one thing. Building something better is quite another. Charles argues that Iran's nuclear ambitions make the risk worth confronting. But Brandon worries that another war could leave us with a fractured country, dangerous weapons in uncertain hands and yet another American commitment we can't easily escape. And perhaps the most revealing part of our conversation was that neither of us could confidently describe what a stable postwar Iran would actually look like. @WeTheBrandon @finfrockcharles

🇸🇦🇾🇪 This man barely survived the Houthi attack on Riyadh’s airport. He says he was with his brother when the missile hit, and the blast threw his brother into the air before he came down right in front of him. No one should ever have to watch that happen to their own brother. Now he’s asking the world to step in, and he wants justice for everyone who was hurt or killed that day. His wounds may heal with time, but what he saw that day might never leave him. Source: Al Arabiya YT / Writer: Daniyal

🇵🇦 Panama is still shaking after a powerful 7.7 earthquake hit on Friday. More than 200 aftershocks have followed, though they’re getting weaker. Nearly 900 homes and at least 14 bridges were damaged, and 27 people were hurt. The government has declared a national emergency, and the U.S. is sending $5 million and a rescue team. The good news is that nobody has died so far, and the Panama Canal, one of the world’s busiest shipping routes, is still running as normal. For a quake that powerful, the fact that no lives have been lost so far is a huge relief. Source: Reuters / Writer: Daniyal

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Larry Johnson: The U.S. is preparing for another war, but may not be ready to fight it Something strange is happening in the skies over the Middle East. U.S. refueling aircraft are reportedly moving in numbers reminiscent of the buildup before the last war with Iran. Israeli fighter jets have also reportedly been active near Syrian and Iraqi airspace. So we asked former CIA analyst Larry Johnson whether we're watching the preparations for another attack. His answer surprised us. Johnson thinks renewed strikes are entirely possible, but says the U.S. military isn't showing the level of command mobilization he'd expect before a sustained campaign. And he sees a much bigger problem: America may no longer have the weapons stockpiles to fight the kind of war its leaders are contemplating. Iran, meanwhile, has had months to rebuild its defenses, expand its underground missile capabilities and prepare for another confrontation. Johnson believes even a short American bombing campaign could accomplish very little while inviting a far more damaging Iranian response. That's what's worrying about this buildup. Washington might still have the ability to start another war with Iran. But starting one and controlling what happens afterward are two very different things. @WeTheBrandon @NewSonof

🇮🇱🇮🇷 A student asked Ben Shapiro whether bombing Iran's oil fields would have triggered retaliatory attacks on Saudi Arabia and the UAE, potentially devastating their energy infrastructure. Shapiro didn't dispute it. “Yes. That is called the cost of war.” Easy enough to say when the bill would be paid by countries that didn't make the decision. Writer: Oliver t.co/2EPjSfwlIc

🇮🇱 Ben Shapiro tells TPUSA students that believing Jews control American politics is both false and “immoral.” Which is a fascinating standard for conspiracy theories. Usually they just have to be wrong. This one apparently also goes on your permanent record. Writer: Oliver t.co/3HKaRMXCZb

Seriously, WHAT is happening in the Strait of Hormuz right now?? The U.S. has struck a commercial vessel in the Gulf of Oman for trying to break its blockade of Iranian ports. And Iran is threatening tankers that refuse to play by its rules for a long time. Just think about what that means. We're talking about one of the MOST IMPORTANT shipping routes on the planet, and both sides are now using MILITARY FORCE to decide who gets through and who doesn't... These are commercial ships carrying goods the rest of the world depends on. What really worries me is how quickly we're getting used to this. As if warships deciding who gets to trade with whom is just how the world works now. Is the U.S. growing increasingly desperate?! Writer: Oliver

🇮🇱 Ben Shapiro says Bernie Sanders is a Jew, but not Jewish, because of his opposition to Israel. “He is a Jew, he's not Jewish.” Bernie has apparently been demoted to the free version of Judaism. 😶 Writer: Oliver t.co/8vSiow8pzn

🇯🇴🇾🇪🇮🇷 Former Jordanian Information Minister Samih Al-Maaytah wants the world to get tougher on the Houthis. He wants countries to act fast and officially label the group a terrorist organization. But his concerns go beyond Yemen. He believes Iran is using sectarian divisions to spread its influence, with Saudi Arabia and other stable countries in its sights. For him, the Houthis are just one part of a much bigger problem. Writer: Daniyal t.co/7xKwgICRlz

🇺🇸 Journalist Welker REALLY wanted to know if America was ready for a Muslim president, even though El-Sayed is running for SENATE. She asked TWICE, and he kept bringing the conversation back to the race he's actually running. “That's not a question I'm asking,” he replied the first time. When she insisted, he shut it down again: “That's irrelevant.” And when she pushed even further, he had to explain that he has ZERO intention of ever running for president. Sorry, but this feels like junk journalism. Writer: Sol t.co/mMuMZlePgR

🇵🇸🇮🇱 Those people are owning land for GENERATIONS, only to wake up one day and find 20 Israeli settlers camping in your backyard, acting like EVERYTHING belongs to them. Hassan Faraj says that settlers established an outpost on his family's property, blocked access to a relative's home, and began stealing water and electricity. He also says entire houses are now ABANDONED because residents are being pushed out. Writers: Sol, Oliver t.co/hiO3DxugMv

🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia's energy minister delivered a pretty DEFIANT message to anyone betting against the Kingdom. Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman declared that NOTHING will break Saudi Arabia's determination to keep moving forward, no matter what hits it. “We are like a Phoenix. We come out of the ashes all the time and every time.” He then crowned Riyadh “the capital of energy security,” insisting the Kingdom will keep honoring its commitments to the world.

🇺🇸 Remember BIG BALLS from DOGE? He's now 20 and helping build America. gov, Trump's attempt to make dealing with the federal government considerably less miserable. Edward Coristine says Americans currently have to navigate some 29,000 government websites just to find what they need. His plan is to put everything in one place, using AI to guide people through government services. And the next big step is actually pretty useful: applying for your first passport entirely online, including taking your photo at home. No post office appointment and no bouncing between government websites. It's still a plan, not a service that's available yet. But if Big Balls can make American bureaucracy less painful, that's quite a second act. Source: Fox News / Writer: Oliver

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The U.S. may be trying to provoke Iran into striking first. I found something particularly troubling in my conversation with Alan Eyre, former U.S. diplomat who helped negotiate the Iran nuclear deal. He believes another round of American strikes against Iran is highly likely. But what caught my attention was his theory about how it might begin. With additional U.S. military assets moving into the region and reports of Israeli aircraft operating near Iraqi airspace, Eyre wonders whether Washington is deliberately testing Tehran's nerves. Iran has already been caught off guard twice. Its leadership has made clear it doesn't intend to let that happen again. And that creates a dangerous possibility. What if the military buildup is partly designed to make Iran believe an attack is imminent, pushing Tehran to strike first? Washington could then present its own offensive as retaliation rather than a decision to restart the war. Eyre isn't claiming to know that's the plan. But he sees a serious risk of another conflict, with Israel pursuing regime change and Washington's ultimate objective still unclear. The unsettling part is how easily preparations meant to intimidate an adversary could become the very thing that triggers the next war. @AlanEyre1

🇺🇸🇮🇱 The Trump administration is now pressing Netanyahu to STOP Israeli SETTLER VIOLENCE in the West Bank. Netanyahu says he wants settler violence in the West Bank to stop. But what is his government actually doing to stop it? Meanwhile, Israel has spent TENS OF MILLIONS of dollars supporting settler sheep farms, supplying weapons and even American-made off-road vehicles. It's hard to reconcile those decisions with Netanyahu's condemnation of the violence. And if you're a Palestinian family facing threats and attacks near your own home, you probably care a lot less about what Netanyahu says than what his government actually does. Writer: Oliver t.co/Q8VMZGDPlx

🇵🇸🇮🇱 Imagine being attacked just for trying to get home. That's what a Palestinian family faced in the West Bank when they encountered young Israeli settlers known as Hilltop Youth. Local resident Hassan Faraj was headbutted in the face and struck again, leaving him with a fractured nose. We're talking about a family trying to reach their own home. Something most of us do every day without a second thought. Nobody should have to wonder whether they'll make it through their own neighborhood without being assaulted. For many Palestinian families in the West Bank this is a daily. Writer: Oliver t.co/u7bxd4dv66

I think Trump might be underestimating how easily the Yemen war could become America's next problem. The Houthis have now brought their attacks to Riyadh's main airport, killing civilians INCLUDING AN AMERICAN. Saudi Arabia wants a serious response. Trump says the U.S. might join. Here's the problem though: America has already spent years striking Houthi targets without eliminating their ability to launch missiles. What exactly would another round of American airstrikes accomplish that the previous ones didn't? And what happens if they fail? Writer: Oliver

🇺🇸 Deputy Director Matt Quinn: “Swarms are a huge problem and a big threat. I'd love to tell you the swarm problem is solved. It's not” The challenge isn't just stopping one drone at a time. They now have to think about dozens arriving together, from different directions, with only seconds to respond. Literal nightmare scenario! Writer: Oliver t.co/TfTwv04wdn

🇺🇸🇸🇦 The FAA is now warning American airlines that flying over Saudi Arabia could be dangerous at any altitude. The warning follows Houthi strikes on Riyadh's international airport that killed 13 people and wounded more than 300. The FAA is also concerned about interference with aircraft navigation systems, and Riyadh's airport remains closed. What's particularly worrying is that Saudi Arabia's main international gateway is now facing the kind of aviation risks the kingdom has spent years trying to contain. Delta is supposed to launch direct Atlanta-Riyadh flights on October 23. That decision just became considerably more complicated. Source: Reuters / Writer: Oliver

🇺🇸 The Secret Service just showed 60 Minutes its new “Drone Hunter.” It uses AI and radar to track hostile drones, then fires a net to capture them midair. A fascinating glimpse of how presidential protection is changing. A threat that once required sophisticated military equipment can now come from a relatively cheap commercial drone. And the Secret Service is preparing to literally catch it out of the sky. Writer: Oliver t.co/Udh12IDHRM

🇺🇲 The Secret Service is training nearly FIVE TIMES as many people as it was last year. Deputy Director Matthew Quinn says they've gone from roughly 200 trainees to 942. That's an enormous jump. And frankly it's hard to hear those numbers without thinking about Butler... Trump nearly lost his life, and a spectator was killed. Two others were seriously wounded. The Secret Service has been struggling with staffing shortages FOR YEARS. They didn't suddenly discover that problem after Butler. So why are we only seeing numbers like this now?
