Remember the time Ghislaine Maxwell reportedly paid “conservative” political operatives Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman $25,000 to smear alleged victims of Jeffrey Epstein and to get the U.S. Attorney prosecuting Ghislaine removed from the case?

You don’t?

Well, read on.👇🏼🧵 Image

In 2020, Maryland paralegal and model Kristin Spealman told Daily Mail the two men had been hired “to dig up dirt on Maxwell’s alleged sex trafficking victims” and to get U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman fired “using Burkman’s supposed influence with Attorney General William Barr.” Image

Berman refused to resign, and the standoff led President Trump to formally fire and replace him. The House Judiciary Committee interviewed Berman. “The Attorney General said that if I did not resign from my position I would be fired,” he told them. abcnews.go.com/Politics/fired…Image

سباق الكهرباء والذكاء الاصطناعي: معركة البنية التحتية ⚡

يتقاطع مصير الأمم في عصر الثورة التكنولوجية عند قدراتها على صياغة بنى تحتية تلبي طموحات المستقبل.

🇨🇳 الصين، بقوة تخطيطها الحكومي، تُحكم تنسيق مواردها لتحقيق رؤية استراتيجية متكاملة، موجهة نحو الهيمنة التكنولوجية.
🇺🇸 الولايات المتحدة تترك زمام المبادرة لشركاتها الخاصة، التي تُبدع لكنها تعاني من غياب التناغم الاستراتيجي.

غير أن السباق نحو الذكاء الاصطناعي لا يُحسم بالخوارزميات وحدها، بل بالبنية التحتية التي تغذيها: الكهرباء ⚡.Image
1. أزمة الطاقة في مراكز بيانات الذكاء الاصطناعي 🚨

🔹 رفوف الذكاء الاصطناعي أكثر من 10 أضعاف رفوف الخوادم التقليدية
📊 تدريب نموذج واحد يحتاج: 1 جيجاواط (يعادل 8 مفاعلات نووية).
📊 بحلول 2030: قد يصل التدريب إلى 8 جيجاواط (أعلى من قدرة دول بأكملها).
2. مأزق أمريكا 🇺🇸

💰 تحديث شبكة الكهرباء بالكامل = 5 تريليونات دولار
📊 جولدمان ساكس: تحتاج أمريكا 120 مليار دولار سنويًا مقابل 40 مليار فقط حاليًا (زيادة 3,000%).
🚨 أمثلة واقعية:
⚡ يوليو الماضي: تعطل 60 مركز بيانات بضغط 1,500 ميجاواط → كاد أن يسبب انقطاعات متسلسلة.
⚡ مزاد الطاقة 2024: الأسعار قفزت +800% → فواتير الكهرباء السكنية ارتفعت 20–30%.Image

Project ARTICHOKE & MKDELTA:

CIA’s Overlooked MKULTRA-Era Programs for Terminal Interrogations, Hypnotic Assassins, and Global Behavioral Manipulation

Project ARTICHOKE was a CIA program initiated in 1951 as an evolution from the earlier Project BLUEBIRD, focusing on advanced interrogation techniques, behavioral manipulation, and the potential for mind control through a combination of drugs, hypnosis, and psychological stress.

It operated under the auspices of the CIA's Office of Security and Scientific Intelligence Branch, with the primary objective of determining whether individuals could be compelled to perform actions against their will—such as assassination or espionage—and then induced to forget those actions entirely.

The program drew on captured Nazi research from World War II and involved collaboration with military intelligence, marking an early chapter in the broader MKULTRA umbrella of human experimentation that would follow.

One of the lesser-known aspects of ARTICHOKE was the deployment of "Team Trips" between 1953 and 1956, where mobile interrogation units were sent overseas to field-test lethal combinations of drugs and hypnosis on real-world targets, primarily suspected double agents or foreign nationals deemed security risks.

These teams operated in locations including Japan, South Korea, and West Germany, carrying specialized medical kits that included barbiturates, amphetamines, and hypnotics, along with chemicals for body disposal such as acids for on-site cremation.

The methods involved administering escalating doses of drugs to push subjects to fatal overdose levels while under hypnotic suggestion, aiming to extract confessions or induce amnesia before death.

In one documented instance in Frankfurt in 1954, a subject was subjected to a massive barbiturate and hypnosis cocktail, leading to a confession followed by death, after which the body was dissolved to eliminate evidence.

The program's scale included dozens of such field operations, often conducted without host nation approval, and emphasized "terminal" interrogations where survival was not a priority if it compromised operational security.

ARTICHOKE's techniques were precursors to MKULTRA's subprojects, incorporating elements like sodium pentothal (truth serum) combined with stimulants to create compliant "programmed couriers" or assassins.

Despite internal concerns about ethics and legality, the program continued until it was largely absorbed into MKULTRA in 1953, though remnants persisted into the late 1950s.

No subjects or participants were ever compensated, and many details remain redacted in surviving documents.

Public knowledge of ARTICHOKE emerged primarily through the 1975 Church Committee investigations, which declassified portions of the program's files in Book I of their report (pages 387–403), along with limited FOIA releases like document 00001464714.

However, the Team Trips specifically are among the more obscure elements, overshadowed by more infamous MKULTRA cases like LSD dosing of unwitting civilians.

The program exemplified the Cold War-era disregard for human rights in pursuit of intelligence advantages, contributing to long-term distrust of U.S. government experimentation and influencing later restrictions on human subject research.Image
Another relatively unheard-of operation from the era is MKDELTA, the overseas field application counterpart to MKULTRA, running from 1953 to 1973 under the CIA's Technical Services Division.

While MKULTRA focused on domestic and controlled experimentation, MKDELTA applied the same hallucinogenic drugs, hypnosis, and behavioral control techniques in operational settings abroad, targeting foreign agents, diplomats, and populations for disruption or interrogation.

Confirmed activities included spraying LSD into the ventilation system of the Paris metro as a test of mass dosing effects, administering hallucinogens to suspected double agents in Manila and Seoul to extract information, and dosing village leaders in Laos and Vietnam to discredit them by inducing erratic behavior visible to their communities.

MKDELTA's budget was integrated into MKULTRA's estimated $10–25 million allocation, with operations often conducted through cutouts to maintain deniability.

The program emphasized delivery methods suited for fieldwork, such as aerosols, contaminated food, or skin-contact agents, and involved collaboration with allied intelligence services.

Like its domestic sibling, MKDELTA was shrouded in secrecy, with most records destroyed in 1973 on orders from CIA Director Richard Helms.

Surviving admissions come from the Church Committee Book I (page 401) and 1977 Senate hearings, where former Technical Services Staff officers testified to its existence, though specifics remain sparse due to redactions.

In historical context, MKDELTA highlights the global reach of U.S. mind control efforts during the Cold War, extending experimental risks to non-U.S. citizens and contributing to unintended diplomatic incidents.

It stands as a cautionary example of how laboratory research transitioned to real-world application, often with catastrophic human costs, and remains one of the less publicized facets of the MKULTRA era due to its international focus and the destruction of primary documentation.Image

Russian desertion is exploding. The Times reports internal Russian documents showing 70,000 soldiers will desert in 2025 - six times more than in Jan 2024.

Soldier Nikolai: “I was involved in this atrocity, and I won’t be able to wash myself clean for the rest of my life.” 1/ Image
Nikolai is a lawyer from Russia’s far east. His salary collapsed after sanctions. Trump was coming to power and everyone was saying the war would end.

In January 2025 he signed a contract, expecting quick peace. After 10 days of training, he was moved to Mariupol, then to an assault unit.2/
At the front he learned the truth: When you sign a contract you cannot leave. It’s like a modern form of serfdom. You have no rights.

Phones and documents were confiscated. Assault units suffered the highest casualties. By July, from 45 men in his unit, only 5 were left alive.3/

Seven German journalism students tracked Russian-crewed freighters lurking off the Dutch and German coast—and connected them to drone swarms over military bases.
(1/6) digitaldigging.org/p/they-droned-…Image
The HAV Dolphin—flagged in Antigua & Barbuda—had been circling in Germany’s Kiel Bay for ten days. Not delivering cargo. Just loitering, 25 kilometers from defense shipyards where drone swarms had been spotted on three separate days. (2/6) Image
Meanwhile, 115 kilometers away off the Dutch island of Schiermonnikoog, HAV Snapper had sailed out and parked in open water. It positioned itself exactly two hours before seven drones appeared over a Russian freighter being escorted by German police through the North Sea. (3/6) Image

🧵1/ Israel and pro-Israel allies have repeatedly claimed Hamas carried out rapes, even “mass rapes,” on October 7, routinely pointing to a UN report by Pramila Patten as proof.

That narrative was openly challenged last month by Reem Alsalem, UN Special Rapporteur on violence against women and girls (@UNSRVAW), who stated that “no independent investigation has found that rape took place on October 7.”

Her comments triggered a fierce political backlash. Senator @JohnFetterman publicly condemned her, as did a group of more than 300 rabbis and Jewish leaders, and former U.S. antisemitism envoy Deborah Lipstadt, who issued a letter demanding her removal from the UN.

Meanwhile, U.S. political leaders and others continue to cite Patten’s report as definitive, despite Patten herself admitting:

➤ “I did not not collect evidence.”

➤ “I did not conduct an investigation.”

➤ “I received information from sources.”

More on those “sources” and what her report actually does and does not establish in the thread below. 🧵👇

🚨Watch this video first:
2/ Pramila Patten’s March 2024 report stated there are “reasonable grounds to believe that conflict-related sexual violence — including rape and gang-rape — occurred across multiple locations in Israel and the Gaza periphery during the attacks on October 7, 2023.”

However, it’s important to understand what these UN findings actually mean.

3/ “Information vs. evidence”

“We’re not talking evidence that will stand in a court of law,” Patten explains.

🔴 MUST READ - ISRAELI MALWARE INFECTING SMARTPHONES 🇮🇱 😳

@IntCyberDigest dropped this very important thread. 🪡

This Intellexa/Predator story is wild. Amnesty basically just showed how an Israeli spyware firm turned mobile ads and telecom pipes into a global dragnet for your phone.
Amnesty’s report on the “Intellexa Leaks” walks through internal decks, sales docs and training videos. Predator (they call it “Helios” inside) can be pushed through malicious ads in the mobile ad ecosystem. You don’t need to tap a sketchy link, just the ad load itself can be enough.
Once it lands on your device, it’s game over:

- WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, Skype
- Gmail, Apple Mail, Samsung Mail
- Live + historical location
- Photos, files, screenshots
- Mic, camera, ambient audio
- Passwords, tokens, certs, call logs…

Basically your whole digital life in one feed for them to scroll.

The ISP has an interesting walk-back on the New England Renewable Energy Zone.

Which, by order of @Matt_KeanMP is declared to be a stonking 8GW of network capacity.

Or... it was. 1/ Image
Image
Image
But a consultation paper that was released just in August, on the generation and storage, outlines reaching 8GW in three separated stages.

The third doesn't have timing allocated? (Will it ever happen?)

And they mention two double-circuit 500KV lines. 2/Image
And the Draft ISP confirms this. They seem to roll the first two 'Stages' that EnergyCo has into one 'Stage' with two 'Parts', delivered in 2032 and 2034.

But AEMO says they're not sure "whether the second stage will optimise benefits to consumers in the 2026 ISP." 3/ Image

Un inciso para recordar que hubo un tiempo en España en el que el máximo exponente de la corrupción institucional eran unos trajes que supuestamente le regalaron a Camps. Eso movilizaba a la gente, vertía ríos de tinta en diarios, abría telediarios y creaba estados de opinión.
Sólo entre ayer y hoy han detenido a 5 personas por presuntos casos de corrupción gravísimos -que se suman a los ya encarcelados- en diferentes ámbitos, de empresas y en cargos estratégicos y con un nexo común: la cercanía a Pedro Sánchez y/o la pertenencia al PSOE.
Estamos en un estado de corrupción total que se extiende por todos los sectores y a todos los niveles: desde los delitos sexuales al tráfico de influencias, pasando por malversaciones y el saqueo generalizado y acabando en delitos más refinados relacionados con fiscalías y otros.

The European Union has triggered Article 122 to indefinitely immobilise the assets of the Russian Central Bank, worth a whopping €210 billion.

I explain what just happened and why this is such a big deal for Europeans.

🧵 Long thread. Image
In the early days of Russia's war, the EU, in close coordination with G7 allies, agreed to immobilise the assets of the Russian Central Bank.

This was done under traditional EU sanctions, which depend on unanimity. Since then, the sanctions have been renewed every 6 months.
In the months that followed, the EU debated several ways to use those assets and "make Russia pay", as leaders repeatedly said.

In 2024, they decided to capture the windfall profits, estimated at €2.5-3 billion annually, to support Ukraine but without touching the assets.

Some 170-Year-Long Charts For You.

These 6 Charts Explain Everything About Gold & Silver

Let's Go!
1) Gold Historical Chart

Gold is mirroring its performance from the early 1970s.

Specifically, it resembles 1972-1973.

There was a 24 month period from 1971 to 1973 when Gold surged 225% and endured only a single 13% correction along the way.

The arrow in the chart shows where we could be based on that template.

My all-time high breakout analog chart shows that the average of the 1972 and 2005 breakouts puts the current move at $7000/oz in March of 2027.

Gold may needs a 20% correction between now and then to reach that target.Gold Historical Chart
2) Silver Historical Chart

It's the 2nd Greatest Breakout of All-Time.

(The Greatest was Gold in 1972).

As our historical work (based on the 1967, 1973 and 1978 breakouts to new all-time highs) shows, Silver could double within 7 to 11 months.

There's that and there's also a measured upside target of $96.

Silver cleared its Civil War high and 1967 high in 1973. The current breakout is another similarity to the early 1970s.

It broke above $3 and ultimately peaked at $50.Silver Historical Chart
