Rayville, Louisiana. Northeast corner of the state. Cotton and soybean fields, two-lane highways, and a parish nobody’s heard of. June 2026: teachers there open envelopes containing $50,935. Not salary. Bonus...
It happened way too fast. A 3,800-word essay dropped on a Friday. By dinner, the biggest names in AI agreed with every word. That never happens. Not in Silicon Valley. Not with these egos. The essay called for a safety cartel. It called for foreign coordination, hinting at EU control of AI. It called for a global body with real teeth. Then a Rome-based coalition popped up. A Chinese professor signed on. Bernie Sanders, a man who once needed staff to explain his own phone, showed up with Chinese AI governance experts.
Two viruses six years apart. Both cooked up in labs. Both leaked right before an election...
Four months. That’s how long Jacob Coxon lasted at AI Frontier Lab Anthropic before he resigned. And he lit a fuse on his way out. His resignation post on X hit 140 million views in record time. 90 minutes later, his own boss backed him up — estimating a greater than 10% chance AI kills every human on Earth this decade. Exceptional timing! Anthropic’s $2 trillion IPO paperwork was already sitting at the SEC. And behind the scenes, one billionaire’s money was funding doomsayers, “independent” watchdogs, and a cadre of media propagandists writing doomer headlines. Let’s follow the money, shall we?
It’s not a mob. It’s not a riot. It’s a plan. A 178-page plan, actually. Written by a Brookings fellow. Printed on beautiful stationary. And the plan has two core tracks.
The year is 2009, months after the inauguration of Barack Obama. The 2,000 guns cost U.S. taxpayers around $1.5 million in cash. The firearms were purchased at American gun shops with the government watching. The rifles crossed the border. They ended up with the Cartels. One of them killed a Border Patrol agent named Brian Terry in a canyon in Arizona. Another helped kill an ICE agent named Jaime Zapata on a highway in Mexico. Hundreds turned up at crime scenes...

The noose was already swinging when the young man asked for his mother. She came. He bit her ear off. Then he told the crowd why. That’s an old story, and most people who hear it judge him. They shouldn’t. Not yet. Because there’s a version of that story happening right now, in real time, with real money and real human beings, and the mother in it has lots of names. Oslo. Brussels. London. Washington. She’s been handing out prizes for 30 years to men who hijack planes, blow up buses, and drag children into tunnels. She calls it compassion...

The DEA was ready to pounce. A $1+ billion cocaine- and money-laundering machine run by Hezbollah had been discovered. Cash went straight to Iran’s leaders. The DEA had spent 10 years building the case. Wiretaps. Cooperating witnesses. The money pipeline mapped from Caracas to Beirut to New Jersey. Suddenly — under Obama — the case died. This is the true story in pictures*.
I subscribe to an extremely insightful publication called Behind the Narrative 📣. On Wednesday, an article entitled Who Really Created the Middle East Conflict? caught my interest. I thought I knew a fair bit about the Ottoman Empire and British control of Palestine. But this article painted a holistic picture of British meddling and malevolence behind the endless conflicts that boil up every few years in the Middle East. Summer intern Biff Spackle created the comic version of the article with lots of pictures and short words so Leftists, Islamists, Communists and Democrats can follow along.
