🇧🇷 Brazil's election numbers are already fueling FRAUD allegations online... The analysis claims Lula's runoff gain would require him to capture essentially all of the net decline in blank/null votes and abstentions, plus around 60% of votes that went to other candidates in the first round. The problem is that aggregate totals cannot tell us which individual voters moved where... It assumes Lula's and Flávio's first-round voters remained perfectly loyal, then treats changes in abstentions and invalid ballots as a pool of “new votes.” It's WEIRD, to put it mildly Writer: Samuel t.co/dLOzzdGdM2

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Terrible scenes of what can only be called COLLECTIVE PUNISHMENT in the West Bank!

🇺🇦🇪🇺 Zelensky on how he would make Europe REGRET lifting sanctions on Russia, if it were to do so: "I do not currently see any demand from the major European economies to lift sanctions or restore energy alliances with the Russian Federation. I don't see that, because we would react. I would certainly react." How exactly would he react...? Writers: Mhedi, Michael t.co/dBEGD3s8iO

🇧🇷 While the left celebrates their win for "democracy," Brazilian journalists are calling BS... Malu Gaspar says ALL Superior Electoral Court ministers were AGAINST extending the voting in Brazil by 2 hrs. Lula was granted his unprecedented request by a judge who "coincidentally" was his fmr. personal attorney... As others have said, this would be like SCOTUS ordering polls to reopen only in Democratic strongholds... Everyone with a brain knows this is crooked as hell!!!

🇧🇷 HOW did Lula manage to gain 10M votes between rounds in Brazil's presidential election, compared with just 4M for Flávio Bolsonaro? In the first round, ~9.5M votes went to other candidates, while changes in turnout, blank ballots, and invalid votes added another ~5M to the calculation. That leaves a pool of ~14M votes. Flávio gained 4M, rising from 56M to ~60M. Lula gained 10M, jumping from 54M to 64.1M. That works out to 71% of the net gains for Lula and just 29% for Flávio. What makes this particularly striking is the claim that ~10M of those 14M votes came from voters who had backed eliminated candidates with more right-wing political platforms. So how did Lula end up gaining so much more ground in just 3 weeks? The figures don't prove wrongdoing or show exactly how individuals voted, but the dramatic shift has raised serious questions about the results. To say nothing of the unprecedented 2-hr extension of voting, signed off by Lula's own fmr. defense attorney... Something stinks...

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russia says it has foiled a Ukrainian plot to launch drones from inside Russian territory against Moscow's missile defense system and a critical electricity facility. Russia's FSB security service arrested two men accused of preparing the attacks under instructions from Ukraine's SBU intelligence agency. According to the FSB, the suspects collected explosive-laden first-person-view (FPV) drones from two Russian regions before transporting them to the Moscow area. The drones were reportedly configured locally and intended to be controlled remotely by operators in Ukraine. Russian authorities claim one suspect was recruited by an SBU officer and promised money to carry out the operation, before enlisting an acquaintance. The alleged plot highlights a potentially serious vulnerability for Moscow: drones launched close to strategic defenses, bypassing the long-distance approach that Russian air defenses are designed to intercept. Ukraine has not commented on the allegations, which remain independently unverified. Source: Reuters / Writer: Mhedi

🚨🇮🇱🇮🇷 Netanyahu is facing a demand for a CRIMINAL investigation, over allegations he tried to drag Israel into war with Iran before the election. He's literally being accused of TREASON.... Israeli opposition lawmaker Liberman says he formally asked the AG to investigate Bibi, accusing him of pressuring security chiefs over the past month to take actions that could trigger a dangerous miscalculation with Iran. Liberman alleges the PM was willing to risk IDF soldiers and a wider war because he feared losing the election. Could he end up in PRISON if he loses tomorrow?!?

🇸🇦🇸🇬 Saudi Arabia is stashing its oil in giant caves 150 meters under Singapore. Starting in the second half of 2027, Saudi crude will be stored in Singapore's Jurong Rock Caverns, which can hold roughly 9 million barrels. The goal is to keep oil flowing to Asia if the Strait of Hormuz gets choked off again, after the Iran war threw supplies into chaos. Before the war, Asia got 2/3 of its oil from the Middle East. Singapore will be the 3rd Asian country to store Saudi crude, after Japan and South Korea. When the main road keeps getting blocked, you start parking your oil closer to the customers.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Zelensky on his belief that lifting sanctions on Russia is nothing less than siding with the enemy: "It doesn't matter whether lifting sanctions is economically beneficial to America, Russia, Asia, Africa, Europe, or Ukraine. Sanctions were imposed because of Russian aggression, the seizure of our territories, illegal occupation and killings. Therefore, lifting sanctions can only be linked to ending the war, diplomacy, reconstruction, and security guarantees." Writer: Mhedi t.co/fpKVlNrAW6

🇫🇷🇷🇺 Europe's confidence in America's nuclear umbrella is fading, and France is stepping in with its own nukes. 10 countries, including the U.K., Germany, Poland, Greece and the Nordics, have joined Macron's "forward deterrence" plan. It could see French Rafale jets armed with nuclear missiles deployed across Europe, giving Russia something new to worry about. France is also restarting nuclear warhead production for the first time in decades, while keeping its arsenal size secret. The current estimate is around 290. America's B61 nuclear bombs in Europe were designed in the 1960s and are increasingly seen as more symbolic than practical against Russia. France's nuclear cruise missiles, meanwhile, are built to reach Russia's major cities. Paris keeps sole control of the button, and its European partners won't get a say in when it's pressed. As one European minister quipped, "The French will let us participate in their nuclear deterrence as much as the Americans." Source: WSJ / Writer: Julie

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Zelensky: "We cannot talk about the neutrality of our state. We cannot talk about limiting the Ukrainian army. Restrictions on our army and Ukraine's neutrality are not up for discussion." Russia invades Ukraine, and somehow Ukraine is expected to weaken its own army and surrender its right to choose its future? What kind of peace agreement is that supposed to be?

🇯🇵 Japan’s hacking problem has gotten so bad the Prime Minister is stepping in herself. PM Sanae Takaichi is holding an emergency meeting with her ministers tonight, after a bunch of cyberattacks left Japanese companies leaking huge amounts of data. The latest one hit GMO Internet Group, where hackers got into its currency trading service and some customers found trades in their accounts they never made. GMO is now asking the government to help take the attackers down. And the awkward part is that Japan only just brought in new laws less than a month ago, letting it hunt down hackers before they strike. Turns out the hackers weren’t too worried about them.

🇺🇸🇬🇧 Chris Brown faces sentencing in London today over a nightclub brawl in which he attacked a music producer with a bottle. He pleaded guilty to affray in July following the February 2023 incident at Tape nightclub in the city's exclusive Mayfair district. Prosecutors said the confrontation, involving music producer Abraham Diaw, was captured on surveillance footage in front of clubgoers. In exchange for his guilty plea, prosecutors dropped more serious charges, including attempted grievous bodily harm. Chris was arrested at a Manchester hotel in May 2025 after returning to Britain for a concert, but was later released on £5 million ($6.7 million) bail, allowing him to continue touring. He now faces a maximum of three years in prison, adding to a troubled legal history that includes his 2009 conviction for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna. His friend and vocal coach, Omololu Akinlolu, will also be sentenced after pleading guilty to affray. Source: ABC / Writer: Mhedi t.co/f0zqL2S5Ng

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷 Netanyahu reportedly wanted to hit Iran before Israel’s election. Trump said not yet, and Israel had little choice but to listen. Its missile defense stocks have been stretched thin by the war, and with Iran and the Houthis expected to retaliate right away, Israel needs U.S. help to absorb the response. So Israel has agreed to wait and is now gearing up for joint operations with the U.S. The plans are allegedly ready and just waiting for Trump’s sign-off, which could come right after the midterms. Defense Minister Israel Katz denies the election part, insisting Israel never intended to attack Iran before the vote and calling the reports complete lies. Source: CNN / Writer: Julie
