Analyzing in minute detail the events and possible prospects of the armed conflict that has now flared up in the Middle East, the absolute majority of experts, concentrating on particulars, bypass the most global aspects of this confrontation. So to speak, “they can’t see the forest for the trees.” But today we are talking not only about possible political и economic upheavals in states already involved in the war and theoretically capable of entering it, but about much larger-scale threats that could affect the entire world.

Economist and best-selling author Nassim Taleb says a single asset has overtaken the US dollar’s position as the world’s de facto reserve currency. In a new interview with Bloomberg, the Black Swan author says that the US dollar has lost its status as a reliable safe-haven asset, noting that people prefer to invest in the stock market rather than hold a currency that declines in value over time. He also says that America’s sweeping sanctions against Russia for its invasion of Ukraine marked the beginning of the end of the dollar’s reign as the world’s reserve currency. According to Taleb, gold is now the world’s reserve currency, highlighting that the dollar’s credibility eroded after America and its allies weaponized the USD.

Have you noticed how the Trump-hating media is praising Trump to the high heavens for his gratuitous, reckless, military aggression against Iran, an act of war without a declaration? This tells us something. Trump has deserted MAGA-America and joined the ruling establishment. In return the establishment is presenting their man as a great success. The establishment now has Trump at war. The power and profit of the military/security complex is secured. Trump’s attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities was no more successful than Israel’s. If Iran continues to hold together, Iran, if its government is competent, will use its missile advantage to continue to punish Israel. Within two weeks Israel could be out of missiles and forced to sue for peace. But that time is unlikely to come. Israel’s plight and Israel’s control over the US government will bring Trump in to save Israel from humiliating defeat.

Downtown Los Angeles became the epicenter of pro-illegal immigrant riots earlier this month, with similar protests taking place in other Democrat-controlled cities. These demonstrations were in response to the Trump administration’s increased immigration enforcement efforts in California. Los Angeles City Controller Kenneth Mejia stated that the riots and protests cost taxpayers over $30 million. Mejia detailed the costs on X, writing, “$29.5 million or 92 percent relates to LAPD’s response to protests against ICE, including citywide tactical alert costs.” An additional $1.4 million went toward clean-up and public property damage.

In a press conference on Monday, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz announced a landmark agreement with the nation’s largest health insurers to tackle the number one healthcare problem plaguing hundreds of millions of Americans: prior authorization. Prior authorization is the requirement for doctors and patients to get advance approval from insurance companies BEFORE certain treatments, tests, or procedures are covered. It was meant to control costs, but for 85% of Americans, it’s become a serious barrier to care. “Doctors like myself are continually struggling with this issue,” Dr. Oz said, explaining how the bureaucratic process not only delays treatment but deeply frustrates both providers and patients.

God Poet Transmitting.......There is no news that is news that looks like the same news when someone else reports it. It is the most elusive thing, and it’s owned by the people who serve the same interests as The Dark Lord, which bonds them together. It might be that... in cocktail-hour terms... they don’t even like each other, BUT... when birds flock together, and when common interests coincide... you will find them in cahoots by natural grooves of pursuit.

Fourteen military cargo planes from the US and Germany, loaded with equipment and supplies to support the army, arrived in Israel amid its conflict with Iran, the Israeli defense ministry said Thursday, Anadolu reports. The ministry said in a statement that the planes are part of the air and sea bridges it has been operating since the start of the Israeli attack against Iran on June 13. It added that the shipment is to support the army’s “operational readiness,” noting that the batch is in addition to more than 800 military cargo planes that have arrived since the start of the genocidal war on the Gaza Strip on Oct. 7, 2023.

This is a report on what is most likely to happen in Iran, as early as this weekend, according to Israeli insiders and American officials I’ve relied upon for decades. It will entail heavy American bombing. I have vetted this report with a longtime US official in Washington, who told me that all will be “under control” if Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei “departs.” Just how that might happen, short of his assassination, is not known. There has been a great deal of talk about American firepower and targets inside Iran, but little practical thinking, as far I can tell, about how to remove a revered religious leader with an enormous following.

Iran will not close Strait of Hormuz for the time being but if the Global Arrogance (US and Western states) joins Israeli regime, Tehral will have to shut the strategic waterwar way to protect its national interests. Tehran MP in the Iranian parliament Seyyed Ali Yazdi Khah said that the enemies must know that Iran has too many choices that will employ them if needs be. The lawmaker stressed that Iran will not close Strait of Hormuz for the time being but if the Global Arrogance (US and Western states) joins Israeli regime directly, Tehral will shut the strategic waterwar way as the good and easy choice. The Islamic Republic of Iran will allow freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz only if the Iranian strategic interests are not endangered.

With the Israel-Iran war continuing to escalate, some of my greatest concerns appear to be materializing in real time, namely the entrance of outside nation-states into the conflict. The United States is poised to enter the war at any moment on behalf of Israel, as is the United Kingdom, both of which have moved air and naval assets into the region. Will Russia and China stand back and watch, or get involved themselves? Another wild card is Turkey, a key member of the U.S.-led NATO alliance. Turkey controls key waterways in the Middle East and is supposedly a U.S. ally but it’s also an Islamic nation with aspirations in the region. It will not be content to sit back and watch Israel become a global hegemon in its backyard.

Austria proposes harsh penalties for parents who oppose gender-related medical interventions for minors, including fines up to €30,000 or a year in jail for questioning a child's desire to transition. Psychological treatment for gender dysphoria could be banned under the bill, as it classifies such therapy as "conversion therapy," preventing exploration of underlying mental health issues like depression or bullying. Political blame game erupts after the draft leak, with parties (SPO, Greens, NEOS) disputing authorship while critics warn the law criminalizes parental rights and medical ethics. Surge in youth gender surgeries raises concerns, with mastectomies among under-25 girls skyrocketing from four in 2011 to 128 in 2023. Many later expressed regret.

Appendix cancer rates have quadrupled in millennials (born in the 1980s) compared to older generations, with a four percent annual increase – far outpacing most cancers. Most cases are undetected until advanced stages due to vague symptoms (abdominal pain, bloating, weight loss) and lack of screening protocols. Researchers suspect environmental or lifestyle factors (processed diets, microbiome disruption, toxins) and a "birth cohort effect," but the exact cause remains unknown. The surge mirrors rising early-onset gastrointestinal cancers (e.g., colorectal, pancreatic) in adults under 50, signaling a public health crisis. Doctors and patients must prioritize persistent symptoms; advocacy groups push for research into early detection and risk factors. Actor Adan Canto, best known for his roles in "X-Men" and "The Cleaning Lady," died at 42 from appendix cancer in January 2024. His tragic and early death exposed a disturbing medical trend: a sharp rise in appendiceal cancer among younger adults.

Sources say ‘load out’ to include nuclear bunker busters, ‘salted’ EMP Iran Filing Nuke, the secret trove of Los Alamos work for the last 65 years President Donald Trump told his defense officials the United States should only strike Iran if its massive “bunker buster” bomb could definitely destroy the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant, The Telegraph reported on June 19. Fordow, located 30 kilometers to the north of the central Iranian city of Qom, is an essential part of the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program. The plant lies some 80-90 meters underground, making it completely immune to strikes with regular bunker buster bombs. Israel, which launched an operation to cripple Iran’s nuclear program earlier in the week, has not yet attempted to target Fordow. The special bunker buster bomb the U.S. is expected to use to breach Fordow if it joins the attack on Iran is the GBU-57 series Massive Ordnance Penetrator. It is made up of a 13,600 kg BLU-127 bomb body and respective guidance kit. B-2 Spirit stealth strategic bombers are expected to deliver the massive bomb.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) sparked outrage after accusing millions of Americans who support President Donald Trump of being “mentally ill.” Crockket made the remarks during a podcast appearance with liberal media figure Katie Couric. In her remarks on Couric’s “Next Question” podcast, Crockett didn’t hold back. The congresswoman labeled Trump’s base as mentally unwell and insisted that opposition to the president should be universal, not just partisan. “We’ve got a mental health crisis in this country because everyone — no matter how you affiliate yourself — should be against Trump. Period,” Crockett declared.

Israel reportedly lacks the means to take out some of Iran’s nuclear sites without US military involvement. President Donald Trump has secretly approved plans for a direct US attack on Iran but has yet to give the order to proceed, The Wall Street Journal reports. Tehran has warned that any military intervention by Washington will be met with “irreparable damage” to the US. Trump has made direct threats against Iran in recent days, while echoing Israeli claims that the Islamic Republic is developing a nuclear weapon. Iran has repeatedly insisted that its nuclear program is entirely peaceful. The US president is hoping that the prospect of the US joining Israel’s nearly week-long bombing campaign will force Tehran to meet his demands for unconditional surrender, WSJ wrote on Wednesday.

As Dmitry Peskov noted, there are so many speculations that "it’s impossible to comment on them" ST. PETERSBURG, June 20. /TASS/. Media reports of the US potentially using tactical nuclear weapons against Iran are nothing but speculations, while such a move would lead to catastrophic consequences, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told TASS. Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich said earlier that Washington did not rule out using tactical nuclear weapons to attack Iran’s underground uranium enrichment site in Fordow. "There have been a lot of speculations," Peskov noted. "This would be a catastrophic development, but there are so many speculations that in fact, it’s impossible to comment on them," he added.

Two false flag scenarios are being cooked up in the Baltic Sea to this end according to Russian spies. Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Agency (SVR) warned that the Brits and Ukrainians are preparing two false flag scenarios in the Baltic Sea. The first one would see Ukrainian-transferred Soviet/Russian torpedoes explode near a US ship there and a supposedly malfunctioning one will then be found to implicate Russia in the alleged attack The second, meanwhile, will involve Ukrainian-transferred Soviet/Russian mines fished out of the Baltic Sea and presented as proof of a Kremlin plot to sabotage international shipping. These perfidious provocations are being employed to manipulate Trump into escalating against Russia after Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announced in mid-February that the US won’t extend Article 5 mutual defense guarantees to NATO countries’ troops that might deploy to Ukraine. That scenario was the initial one that was planned for getting him to pull out of talks with Putin and then double down on support for Ukraine, but his team preemptively scuttled it through Hegseth’s announcement.

Senators Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Angus King of Maine, both independents, on Thursday will introduce legislation that would ban pharmaceutical companies from promoting prescription drugs directly to consumers - including through television, radio, print, digital platforms, and social media, the WSJ reports. The proposal would mark a sweeping shift in the U.S. advertising landscape, where pharmaceutical companies are among the largest spenders. Prescription drug brands accounted for roughly 13 percent of all ad spending on linear television in 2025, totaling approximately $2.18 billion so far this year, according to iSpot data. In 2024, the industry spent $3.4 billion on traditional TV ads between January and August alone, according to ad-tracking data.

The spouse of an active-duty member of the Air Force stands in the gap for her husband of 11 years. Together, the family is facing an uphill battle against the Department of Defense for exercising the innate rights of all U.S citizens, rights that service members do not relinquish. Maj. Brennan Schilperoort is a C-130J transport aircraft pilot who has honorably served the nation in the Air Force for over 17 years. Maj. Schilperoort applied for a flu shot medical exemption in November 2023, previously having a severe adverse reaction to it, but the Air Force refused him consideration. Another service member he personally knows was granted a medical exemption that same month for “headaches.”
