Petition Calling for House Speaker Other Than Hakeem Jeffries Hits 1 Million Signatures
While the large Democratic majority in the House makes it easier for Jeffries to maneuver leading up to the leadership vote, and given that no challenger has stepped forward to take him on directly, the betting money is still safe that Jeffries will be the next Speaker of the House.
Netanyahu promised answers after Oct. 7. Three years later, Israel is still waiting
In the early months of the war, establishing a state commission appeared to command broad political support, including among some Likud lawmakers and ministers. Over time, however, alternative proposals emerged, including a government-appointed panel and a commission whose members would be chosen through an agreement between coalition and opposition representatives.
None of those proposals has resulted in an inquiry.
Google’s Gemini Hacked Three Companies in May, and It’s Only Admitting That Now
(September 18, 2026)
The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday that Google has confirmed that a Gemini instance was able to leave its sandbox and attack other companies during a security test back in May. The company running the test was frontier AI security firm Irregular—which the Journal noted just so happens to have been involved in similar breakouts at OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta. The common thread between all of the incidents, according to the New York Times, is that AI models obtained unauthorized internet access during Irregular’s tests.
This Tiny Israeli Startup Just Managed to Hack Three of the World’s Most Powerful AI Labs
(one month ago)
Over the past two weeks, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta all disclosed that their AI models went rogue during routine security testing. Every single incident traces back to one company: Irregular, a three-year-old Israeli startup that operates cybersecurity testbeds for frontier AI models.
Founded in Tel Aviv by by Dan Lahav, CEO, and Omer Nevo, CTO, and backed with $80 million from Sequoia and Redpoint Ventures, Irregular runs Capture-the-Flag exercises for major AI labs. In these exercises, models are instructed to find vulnerabilities inside simulated corporate networks.
C.I.A.-Affäre: Der Offenbarungseid von Dianne Feinstein – Video, Zusammenfassung, Einschätzung
(12. März 2014)
Die Rede von Senatorin Dianne Feinstein vor dem Senat der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika über die Sabotage der verfassungsmäßigen Kontrolle des Parlaments über die Central Intelligence Agency durch die Central Intelligence Agency ist vielleicht das Erbärmlichste, was ich in meinem Leben je gesehen und gehört habe. Es ist nicht nur der Offenbarungseid eines Ausnahmezustands, eines über sich selbst und die Welt verhängten Kriegsrechts des mächtigsten Imperiums auf dem Planeten, in seinem Krieg „on terror“, weltweit geführt mit seinen „Einflussgebieten“, „Alliierten“, Ablegern, schlechten Kopien und Kolonien. Es ist der Offenbarungseid seiner bis auf die Knochen korrupten, feigen, abgetakelten, unfähigen Zuträger, Mitwisser, Kollaborateure und Funktionäre.
Was Senatorin Feinstein hier zeigt, was sie da zeigt, ist so unbeschreiblich, das sogar mir die Worte fehlen um es zu beschreiben. Ich will hier den Inhalt ihres Statements nur deshalb zusammenfassen, weil ich davon ausgehe dass die ganzen Feinsteins der deutschsprachigen Presse dies alles weder hören, lesen, geschweige denn darüber berichten wollen, genauso wie deren KundInnen…..

Russian President Vladimir Putin just held a high-stakes bilateral meeting with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on the sidelines of the SCO Summit in Bishkek. The optics and message were unmistakable.
‘We Cannot Keep Peace When There Is No Peace to Keep,’ Secretary-General Says, Calling for Reset of United Nations Peace Operations
But let me be clear: Peacekeeping operations should only be deployed when a peace agreement or at least a robust ceasefire is in place. We cannot keep peace when there is no peace to keep.
‘We are starving’: Palestinians besieged by settlers in West Bank homes run out of food
Palestinians trapped in their homes by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank town of Qusra are running out of food as the siege enters its 12th day.

»Dieses Buch Heinrich Manns, heute, gottseidank, in aller Hände, ist das Herbarium des deutschen Mannes. Hier ist er ganz: in seiner Sucht zu befehlen und zu gehorchen, in seiner Roheit und in seiner Religiosität, in seiner Erfolgsanbeterei und in seiner namenlosen Zivilfeigheit.« (Kurt Tucholsky)
‘A service to Israel’: Lebanese president warns against internal division
(June 2, 2026)
In a post by the Lebanese presidency on X, Aoun said Lebanon is committed to preserving peace, adding “anyone who fuels [division] provides a service to Israel”.
Aoun highlighted that Lebanon has lost more than 3,000 people during the conflict, with about one million displaced and thousands of homes destroyed.
“There is no horizon for ending this situation,” he said, adding it’s the state’s duty to protect its citizens and “there is no other option but negotiation”.
Lebanon‘s president says country has ‚no other choice‘ but to continue negotiations
Lebanese President Joseph Aoun said that negotiations are „safer than war“, adding that the country has „no other choice“.
„We have seen, and continue to see, the devastation and consequences of war. Negotiations will not solve the problem overnight, but they are a process that takes time, and we have no other choice,“ Aoun told reporters.
Joint List Factions Ready to Form Alliance of Independent Parties Ahead of Elections.
According to Jabareen, “The dissolution of the Joint List in 2021 was a severe mistake that cost the Arab public political power and influence. Today, everyone understands this.” He added that despite ideological gaps with Ra’am, “The price of running separately will be unbearable—a drop in voter turnout and the continuation of the far-right rule.” He also emphasized that intensive talks are underway to reach agreements: “We are doing everything we can to bring hope back to our public.”
Representatives from Hadash and two Arab partiers, Balad, and Ta’al held a joint meeting last night to accelerate the reunification of the Joint List and remove obstacles toward an agreement. The three parties emphasized their consensus on core political issues and highlighted the importance of ongoing political and parliamentary coordination after the elections.
In a joint statement, the parties declared: “We would like Ra’am to be a partner in the political agreement, but we are aware of the significant gaps between our positions regarding the character and path of the Joint List. Nevertheless, recognizing the importance of unity against existential threats, the parties expressed willingness to reach an agreement with Ra’am based on a ‘technical joint list’ for the elections, aiming to raise voter turnout, strengthen Arab representation, and topple the far-right government.”

While acknowledging that there was a “heated meeting,” the source added that “such disagreements are natural” and said that another meeting will take place in the coming weeks.
Hezbollah ‘was counting on Iran’ to deliver Lebanon ceasefire
(today)
Now, Hezbollah can continue to fire rockets across the border, and it has been doing that. Hezbollah has also been trying to slow Israel’s ground invasion in the south. But as you can see, Israel is the one that has the upper hand. It controls the skies, it can cause death, it can cause destruction, and this is all heaping pressure on the population and on the Lebanese government.
Hezbollah was counting on Iran having the leverage to silence this front, but that has not happened yet, despite statements from Iranian officials.
When and Why Did Human Brains Decrease in Size? A New Change-Point Analysis and Insights From Brain Evolution in Ants
(22 October 2021)
But we also find that human brain size reduction was surprisingly recent, occurring in the last 3,000 years. Our dating does not support hypotheses concerning brain size reduction as a by-product of body size reduction, a result of a shift to an agricultural diet, or a consequence of self-domestication. We suggest our analysis supports the hypothesis that the recent decrease in brain size may instead result from the externalization of knowledge and advantages of group-level decision-making due in part to the advent of social systems of distributed cognition and the storage and sharing of information. Humans live in social groups in which multiple brains contribute to the emergence of collective intelligence. Although difficult to study in the deep history of Homo, the impacts of group size, social organization, collective intelligence and other potential selective forces on brain evolution can be elucidated using ants as models.
Case 4000: Netanyahu testimony cut short after sealed envelope as prosecution presses on media ties
(today)
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s testimony in his criminal trial was cut short on Monday after judges agreed to end the hearing early, following a sealed envelope delivered to the prime minister roughly an hour after proceedings began.
Netanyahu, who is in the midst of cross-examination by the prosecution, received an envelope and told the court the contents were “important.”
Experte warnt: „USA könnten Grönland an einem Nachmittag übernehmen“
Besonders beunruhigend sei aus Sicht Grönlands und Dänemarks die Bereitschaft der Trump-Regierung, offen zu handeln, ohne sich erkennbar auf internationales Recht zu berufen. Die Aktion in Venezuela habe zudem die außergewöhnlichen Fähigkeiten der USA demonstriert, einschließlich erheblicher Geheimdienst- und Militärmacht.
Das Verhältnis zwischen den USA und Dänemark gleiche derzeit einer Katze, die mit einer Maus spiele, so Bertelsen. Die Machtverhältnisse seien extrem unausgeglichen. Die Vereinigten Staaten könnten Dänemark und Europa nach Belieben bedrohen und demütigen.
US-Griff nach Grönland: Die Scheu der Europäer vor einer starken Antwort
Der NATO-Chef ist bekannt dafür, im Umgang mit Trump auf eine Umarmungsstrategie zu setzen. Kritische Worte Richtung Washington werden von ihm nicht zu hören sein.
(…)
Während Dänemark und Spanien die Übernahmefantasien des US-Präsidenten verurteilen und der spanische Regierungschef Pedro Sanchez sogar von einem „Verbrechen“ sprach, schlägt Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen bei der Übergabe der Ratspräsidentschaft diese Woche an Zypern leisere Töne an.
(…)
Es sei keinesfalls so, dass die Europäer keine Hebel hätten, um den USA deutlich zu machen: „Damit ist jetzt Schluss.“
Doch von solchen Maßnahmen gegen die USA ist in Brüssel nichts zu hören.

Bondi Beach Survivor‘s Shocking Claim About Police Inaction During 20 Minutes of Terror
(December 14, 2025)
The account, provided by eyewitness Shmulik Scuri, has intensified scrutiny of the New South Wales Police tactics during the attack, which has been declared a terrorist incident that left at least 12 people dead and 29 injured.
(…)
Mr Scuri, who was with his family, told reporters that for ‘20 minutes‘ shooters continued to fire while approximately four police officers stood by without returning fire. He said one suspect reloaded openly, uninterrupted, and that officers did not engage.
‚Nobody gave fire back. Nothing. Like they froze,‘ he said. ‚I don‘t understand why.‘
Any government in the world could expel the rogue state of Israel from the United Nations. None does.
(April 27, 2025)
On October 28, 2024, the Knesset banned the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) in Israel and its occupation zone Palestine by law.
Now, the General Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations, adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations on 13 February 1946, states in Section 30 the following:
„All differences arising out of the interpretation or application of the present convention shall be referred to the International Court of Justice, unless in any case it is agreed by the parties to have recourse to another mode of settlement. If a difference arises between the United Nations on the one hand and a Member on the other hand, a request shall be made for an advisory opinion on any legal question involved in accordance with Article 96 of the Charter and Article 65 of the Statute of the Court. The opinion given by the Court shall be accepted as decisive by the parties.“
The United Nations Charter, Article 96:
(1) The General Assembly, the Governing Council or the Security Council may request the International Renewal Court of Justice to give an advisory opinion on any legal question.
(2) Other organs of the Renewed United Nations and specialised agencies, which may at any time be so authorised by the Governing Council or by the General Assembly, may also request advisory opinions of the Court on legal questions arising within the scope of their activities.
In short: every government of a UN member state could bring in a resolution to the Assembly that, once it is adopted, requests an urgent advisory opinion of the World Court, the International Court of Justice.
And if the World Court decides so, Israel is being kicked out of the United Nations. That‘s it. The Security Council is meaningless on that matter.
So here is the question of questions, to all of you around the world: Although it has been publicly demanded, even promised by various governments – why hasn´t this happened yet?
