🇺🇸 So, we have the wind just blowing random trees onto highways in broad daylight in California! Ya’ll better get it together over there… Santa Ana wind, wildfires, homes swept into the ocean! Sounds like Judgment Day is coming, and this one doesn’t star Governor Schwarzenegger! Writer: Jamie t.co/F0VLW8hSvV

🔥🇺🇸 CALIFORNIA IS ON FIRE The Norte Fire has EXPLODED across Orange County, burning roughly 465 acres near San Clemente and San Juan Capistrano, with ZERO containment reported. Powerful Santa Ana winds are pushing the flames through the hills, and several homes have already been damaged or destroyed. Families are being ordered to EVACUATE as firefighters battle the blaze from the ground and air. Writer: Sol t.co/Mkkq8Qx24x

🇵🇱 A Polish inventor built a REAL-LIFE STAR WARS SPEEDER Tomasz Patan's Volonaut Airbike is a jet-powered flying motorcycle that can reach speeds of up to 124 MPH (200 km/h), with no visible propellers. It weighs just 66 pounds, runs on jet fuel or diesel, and can be refueled in under a MINUTE. The catch? You get around 10 minutes of flight time, and it'll set you back roughly $880,000.

🔥🇺🇸 "Herschel, He was a better football player than candidate, but he wasn't a bad candidate!" Only Trump can make a shout-out sound like a compliment, the shadiest of shade, and a eulogy all at the same time... Writer: Jamie t.co/BVd7gcUeUZ

🇲🇽 Plot twist in Mexico: Man pulls off the most committed performance of the day, begging on crutches at the stoplight. Then casually ditches them, changes clothes behind the bushes, and strolls off with the day’s earnings like he just finished a shift. Absolute dedication to the craft.

🔥🇺🇸 Trump: “I wear very little makeup.” Come on… Trump: “And I do it myself.” Totally buy that. 🤣 Writer: Bri t.co/FMfR7gpGMt

🔥🇺🇸 By the end of the night, we will have Trump’s entire ‘Marry, F*cK, or Kill’ list! Writer: Jamie t.co/1jFdxWxApj

🇺🇸Honestly what the f**k did i just watch!? He looks like he's glitching out on stage 👀 Writer: Bri t.co/teCy8XEGz0

🇺🇸 Trump, unsurprisingly, goes after Sen. Ossoff’s looks: “He looks like Pee-wee Herman. And Didn't Pee-Wee have a checkered last number of years? He passed away, sadly, but he had a very checkered last number of years. That’s Jon Ossoff… He’s Pee-wee Herman!” WTF?! BUY A MIRROR, PAL! Writer: Jamie t.co/WMWsHxlcog

The calm before the storm

🇺🇸 Robert Barnes, who PREDICTED Trump’s 2016 win, says Democrats are heading for a BIG MIDTERM WAVE if Trump’s core voters stay home. He says many voters feel betrayed over Iran, the Epstein files, deportations, and border security. He predicts Democrats could win 53-58 Senate seats, 230-260 House seats, and half the governorships. He calls it a “betrayal environment,” where voters turn out mainly to punish the party they feel let them down. The same voters who put Trump in power could cost Republicans the midterms.

🇺🇸Trump: “How will the Arab countries feel if we name it the ‘Trump Strait’?” Yeah… I don’t think putting gold letters on the Strait of Hormuz is high on their peace plan. But that’s just me being silly. Next up...an ocean 😲 Writer: Bri t.co/N5DksoygAU

🇺🇸 Trump is now considering naming an ENTIRE OCEAN after himself After getting the Gulf of Mexico renamed the Gulf of America on Google Maps, he says he floated another idea: the TRUMP OCEAN. He asked Google whether they preferred the Atlantic or the Pacific. Their alleged response? “We've had it. That's enough.” I NEED THIS LEVEL OF SELF-LOVE IN MY LIFE 🤣 Writer: Sol t.co/mU1TWmN7sx

🇺🇸Trump: “You're doing better than you've ever done" In the carpet capital, that line rolled out completely flat. Hard to sweep economic reality under the rug in a town that makes them for a living… Writer: Bri t.co/JIs6bIe9B2

🇺🇸🇻🇪 Trump is bragging about how fast the U.S. took down Venezuela. “Venezuela has a strong military, but we hit them with fire and fury. They didn’t know what the hell happened.” This from the same Trump who’s also slamming U.S. for going in, bombing people and leaving. Writer: Daniyal t.co/BRbOyqYphc

🚨🇺🇸 Trump goes through the greatest hits, AGAIN: “You remember a guy named Barack Hussein Obama, terrible president! I call him the ‘divider-in-chief’!” He said this just minutes after claiming he calls every Middle Eastern man Mohammed... 🔥 Writer: Jamie t.co/hpI0NNWDtW

🇺🇸Affordability is just a word people keep hitting Trump with… “Every time something is a little high.” Gas prices surged over 9% in a single month. Overall inflation reaccelerated as crude oil surged past $100 a barrel following continued shocks in the Middle East. Cost-of-living continues to rise. No wonder Americans keep screaming for affordability…it’s not getting any cheaper. Writer: Bri t.co/VojLIc4DVu

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump just called a war that's cost roughly $40 BILLION a “MILITARY EXERCISE.” And that's before counting billions more in ongoing operations and damage to U.S. bases. I'd be TERRIFIED to see what Trump considers an actual war... Writer: Sol t.co/LhEQr8vO1f

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump is having second thoughts about Iran. “I might have gone too far with the leaders. I have nobody to talk to.” It’s the second time this week he’s said it. Turns out it’s hard to negotiate a peace deal when the other side’s chairs are all empty. Writer: Daniyal t.co/1Rr8Ci4eim

🇺🇸 Trump is apparently quite pleased with the looks of America's military. “We're allowed to have big strong handsome soldiers now.” Not just strong. Handsome. The Pentagon spends hundreds of billions on military superiority, and Trump is out here making sure the troops are runway-ready. Writer: Oliver t.co/H9r1nwIaZp

🇺🇸 Yeah… he unclassified everything about Iran, alright. Just like he released all of the Epstein files... Writer: Jamie t.co/GTran16cmB

🇺🇸 Trump is slamming America’s old habit of bombing countries and walking away. “We used to go in, bomb people, and then leave. What the hell? We destroyed lives, it cost us a fortune, and we left.” He’s right that it cost a fortune. The Iran war alone has run the Pentagon $45 billion so far. Writer: Daniyal t.co/seLj9j2QuH

🇺🇸Trump says he keeps a much closer eye on gas prices than the guys before him. “Unlike Biden and Obama and these guys, they don’t look at gas pumps, but I do. And I’m looking at the price.” If just looking worked, gas would be free by now. Writer: Daniyal t.co/HaFodUq2dJ

🇺🇸🇸🇻 Trump seems rather pleased with the reputation of El Salvador's notorious mega-prison. He says criminals facing deportation to the country are practically begging not to be sent there. “No, El Salvador! No, no, we don't want to go to El Salvador! That country is doing a tremendous job.” El Salvador's CECOT prison has become one of the most controversial symbols of President Nayib Bukele's war on gangs, with its brutal conditions drawing international criticism. That's exactly the kind of deterrent Trump wants. Writer: Oliver t.co/ZRpiLpj2xV

🇧🇬🇷🇴🇷🇺 Drones are hitting ships in the Black Sea, and Bulgaria wants NATO to step in. A commercial ship was sunk off Bulgaria on Tuesday. Then 2 more ships were hit near Romania, both catching fire. That's 3 ships attacked in just days, right on NATO's doorstep. Bulgaria suspects Russia was behind the attacks, but has no proof yet. Bulgaria has now formally asked NATO to send fighter jets and anti-drone systems, along with extra forces to help protect its territory. It's also planning talks with Romania and Turkey to figure out what to do next. NATO's 32 members will discuss the request next week, while Bulgaria also hopes to join the alliance's anti-drone program by the end of October. The Russia-Ukraine war is already spilling into commercial shipping routes. Now the question is how far NATO is willing to go to protect them. Source: Reuters / Writer: Daniyal

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The PENTAGON PIZZA Index is acting up again Both Papa Johns locations near the Pentagon are reporting unusually high traffic at the same time. And with tensions involving Iran already running high, people are watching Washington's pizza deliveries like they're classified intelligence briefings. The theory is simple: when Pentagon staff work late during a crisis, nearby pizza orders surge. We've reached the point where Americans are checking pizza ovens for signs of World War III.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The next war with Iran could become something much bigger than Trump intends I spoke with Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson about the growing American military buildup around Iran, and he made a comparison I found particularly disturbing. Europe in 1914. Back then, governments believed they could enter a war, achieve their objectives and return home within months. Instead, they unleashed a conflict that destroyed empires. Wilkerson sees a similar danger developing today, particularly as France reportedly deploys troops to Saudi Arabia and more countries become involved in the Middle East. We discussed Trump's apparent interest in using the MOAB against Iranian targets. Wilkerson argues that these enormous bombs would accomplish very little against Iran's deeply buried nuclear facilities. He also doubts the U.S. has enough conventional military capability remaining to force a decisive outcome. That leaves a troubling question. What happens if Trump launches another attack, Iran refuses to concede, and Washington finds itself facing an even worse strategic position? Wilkerson worries that the pressure to escalate could eventually bring nuclear weapons into the equation. And his concern extends beyond Iran. We also discussed Ukraine, where he believes Putin has become increasingly committed to achieving his objectives, making a compromise more difficult as the human and political costs accumulate. What struck me was his broader argument about how wars develop. Leaders enter conflicts believing they can control the outcome. Then the casualties mount, the objectives expand, and accepting anything short of victory becomes politically impossible. Wilkerson fears we're approaching precisely that kind of situation, with nuclear weapons now part of the equation. The danger isn't that anyone necessarily wants a world war. It's that several governments could make decisions that eventually leave them unable to avoid one.

🇺🇸 Trump just said, "President Xi was here last week," but actually, he left nearly a month ago For him, an entire month is basically last week. Things couldn't be going any faster.. I know that feeling 😂 Writer: Lucas t.co/kE91ImykxD

🇨🇦 Vancouver's HOUSING crisis is entering a VERY DANGEROUS phase Court-ordered property listings have climbed toward a 20-year high, with 946 recorded across Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley through September. But here's the alarming part. Only 38% have sold, compared with a typical annual rate of around 60%. David Lin points to properties losing enormous amounts of value, including examples of homes falling from roughly $2 million to $1 million in just two years. And behind the pressure is Canada's mortgage renewal system. Homeowners who locked in cheap financing during the pandemic are now confronting higher borrowing costs, sometimes on properties worth considerably less than they paid. That's when a housing correction becomes something far more serious: people who can no longer afford to hold their homes, entering a market where buyers are increasingly hard to find.
