While Iran engages in fake negotiations to stall, deceive, and lie to the Trump Administration, they announce that they will be buying anti-ship missiles from China. President Trump must stop these asinine negotiations with Iran. Iran’s butchers will never honor an agreement with the U.S, most especially when President Trump leaves office in January 2029. History will not be kind to President Trump if he signs a bad nuke deal with Iran.

Washington — President Trump has grown increasingly frustrated with what aides describe as the limits of military leverage against Iran, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter who spoke to CBS News under condition of anonymity to discuss national security issues.

Unlike previous targeted operations, including the recent one removing Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro from power, Mr. Trump has been told that any strike on Tehran’s assets would almost certainly not be a singular, decisive blow. Instead, limited strikes could open the door to a wider confrontation — one that risks drawing the United States into a protracted conflict in the Middle East.

Nigel Farage Isn’t Serious About Saving Britain– thefederalist.com

Hardly a week goes by now that we don’t get a cautionary tale coming out of Britain, where the political elite are determined either to destroy the nation’s ethnic majority through the mass importation of third-world migrants, or to pretend that there is no ethnic majority to destroy in the first place.

Among the pretenders is none other than Nigel Farage, whose right populist party Reform UK is poised to win an outright parliamentary majority in the next general election. Farage has been a fixture in British politics for a quarter-century now and has always presented himself as counter-establishment. Yet he is also a man who likes to be liked, which means he will not speak candidly about Britain’s migrant crisis and what must be done to save the country.

Police said there was no ongoing threat.

“I think it’s just a reminder, take every opportunity to tell people, turn the heat down for goodness sake,” Albanese said at an event in Melbourne on Wednesday.

Israeli settlers vandalized a mosque in the Israeli-occupied West Bank early Monday, spray-painting offensive phrases and setting a fire, according to the Palestinian Authority’s Ministry of Religious Affairs.

Worshippers arriving for the day’s first prayers found the damage and a smoldering fire that spewed black smoke across the entrance of the Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq Mosque in the town of Tell, near Nablus, and stained the ornate doorway.

“I was shocked when I opened the door,” said Munir Ramdan, who lives nearby. “The fire had been burning here in the area, the glass was broken here and the door was broken.”

Agentic AI is quickly moving from demo to deployment inside the Department of Defense. But what does it actually mean to give AI “agency” — and what does it take to make those systems work on real military networks?

In this episode, Ryan sits down with Ben Van Roo, co-founder and CEO of Legion Intelligence, Jags Kandasamy, co-founder and CEO of Latent AI, and Aaron Brown, co-founder and CEO of Lumbra AI, to discuss why the real challenge is not just building smart models but getting AI agents to run on military networks and inside operational workflows. They cover deploying agents in denied environments, compressing models for the edge, orchestrating them across stovepiped systems, and the Pentagon’s struggle to scale and buy these tools fast enough to matter.

(LifeSiteNews) – Regular readers of LifeSiteNews, and in fact those who read most independent media, most likely are already aware that the People’s Republic of China, through its Communist Chinese Party’s (CCP) many arms, has been meddling in Canada’s elections, as well as democracy in general, for years.

What may not be as well known is that in Canada’s smallest province, the picturesque Prince Edward Island (PEI), the CCP has been accused of using Buddhist monasteries as money laundering fronts to the tune of half a billion dollars.

Indeed, a report from late last year noted how Buddhist monks and nuns from a group called Bliss and Wisdom showed recent tax filings with about $500 million in assets.

The protests have reportedly taken place on at least seven campuses as students demand increased political freedom, leading to confrontations with government loyalists, according to various news reports, citing videos of the incidents.

The protests “come as Iran’s clerical leaders struggle to manage uprisings at home and a looming risk of war with Washington,” the New York Times reported.

The statement called the strikes a violation of Afghanistan’s airspace and sovereignty.

WASHINGTON — One of the most dangerous places for Christians worldwide is Nigeria. More than a decade of deadly violence has drawn international scrutiny, prompted U.S. military action, and fueled debate over whether Africa’s most populous nation is facing genocide.

In an exclusive interview with CBN News, Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, pushed back on claims that Christians are being systematically exterminated.

“I don’t think so,” Tinubu offered repeatedly when asked whether genocide is taking place. Instead, she described the violence as rooted in long-standing regional conflicts, poverty, terrorism, and political instability — particularly as the country approaches an election year in 2027.

Trump’s new global tariffs kick in at 10% – business live | Business– www.theguardian.com

Blurb:

President Donald Trump’s new tariffs have come into effect today at a rate of 10%, after the US supreme court blocked many of his import taxes on Friday.

The president signed an executive order last Friday authorising the 10% tariffs just hours after the supreme court ruling. He later threatened to raise the rate to 15%, but did not officially do so by Tuesday 12.01am time in Washington, when the 10% levy came into effect.

However, Bloomberg is reporting that officials in the White House are working on a formal order that will increase the rate to 15%.

It comes after Trump declared this week that he can use tariffs in a “much more powerful and obnoxious way”.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has announced he will ask the Slovak Electricity Transmission System (SEPS) to stop emergency electricity supplies to Ukraine in retaliation for Kyiv’s refusal to resume Russian crude oil shipments via the Druzhba pipeline.

In a video message posted on social media on Sunday, Fico said he would visit SEPS on Monday to request the suspension of electricity deliveries, further increasing tensions between so-called “dissenting” member states like Slovakia and Hungary, and the European Commission.

“If Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tells us to buy gas and oil elsewhere than in Russia — even though it is more difficult and expensive, which costs us a lot of money — then we have the right to respond,” Fico told followers.
