Slovakia discovers Russian backdoors in 279 new traffic cameras — SMS-triggered shell access and passwordless live feeds found in EU-funded rollout
Maybe it would be a good idea to spread the rumor that the Russian and china were using flock cameras to help Iran plan a terror attack. But that would be so wrong….

The United States will impose "the toughest sanctions in history" on Iran, says U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, urging China to cooperate
China? The people, helping Iran target usa forces? Also the main customer for Iran oil? Also supplying Iran with MANPAD missiles to shoot down American planes.
What the hell Bessent is smoking?

ICE detainees are dying by suicide at an 'alarming' rate, an AP investigation finds
In other news, the prisoners at Abu Ghraib were torturing themselves, the guards had nothing to do with it.
Does anyone really think ice isn’t torturing these people to death?

Russia Might Soon Run Out of Money for the Ukraine War
Bull. They have been laundering oil through India for a while. And while that loophole may close, every other asian country is waiting in line to be the supplier of refined product to Europe using Russian oil. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/indian-refiners-review-russian-oil-contracts-after-us-sanctions-source-says-2025-10-23/
Also, I know a Russian immigrant who regularly travels back there to visit her family. She flies through turkey with a suitcase full of money and western goods without any problems. Money is flowing into Russian like a river.

Nearly half a million Russians killed in Ukraine war, UK spy chief says
Such a shame. I was hoping it would be more.
Edit: A little bit of context. I have a friend who is Russian and every year travels back there for a couple of week to see to her 80 year old mothers needs.
The Russians are not some poor oppressed people who were dragged to war against their wishes. They are overwhelming in support of Putin and everything he has done. (up to now at least). They are the Russian equivalent of maga. They drank the koolaid and only now when things are going bad do they regret it. If the war turns back in their favor with will be out cheering in the streets. I have zero pity for these people.

Extreme heat in Europe ‘a brutal reminder’ of climate crisis, UN chief says
It won't matter. They care more about gas prices than the heat. They will crawl back to fossil fuel on their hands and knees just to get a little more economic growth.

Why is America so surprised when they elected Trump? They bitched and moans how all politicians are liars, cheats, money hungry and so on. So now they got exactly that and they are surprised?
Your are asking two separate questions.
Question one: Was America surprised when he was re elected?
Yes, because the first time was a shit show of horror, and at least half the country couldn't believe the other half wanted that to happen again, regardless of how bad a candidate Kamala was.
Question two: Are all politicians liars and cheat?
Yes, but Trump is several orders of magnitude worse than all the others combined. Openly soliciting bribes and publicly accepting and wallowing in them. All while using the constitution to wipe his ass and just laugh.
It really come down to scale, all the shit the Clintons and bushes and even Nixon have done just dont hold a candle to the lawless murder and greed trump is engaged in. Nothing like this has occurred before in the modern era. And remember, I'm including the illegal secret war Nixon created.

Trump puts ‘Project Freedom’ on hold, saying he hopes to finalise a deal with Iran
Really what happened is he restarted the war and almost lost a destroyer. Also Iran still says they aren’t talking to the USA. It’s just another pump and dump for the stock market.

US Law Enforcement Warns of ‘Anti-Tech Extremism’ as AI Hatred Grows
One can only hope that there really is a network of people ready to fire bomb these places.
Which brings up the question. How do you bypass the surge suppressors for a data center and cause a power spike that destroys all the ai chips. Asking for a friend.

Not really an option any more, use to do that a lot, when I first retired.
I'm on some really expensive meds that require refrigeration. They don't travel well. Plus all the medical equipment I have to haul around with me.
I make one trip a year now up to NJ in the summer, to visit my brother then spend a couple of months there. Come October or so he comes down here and bring Harley the wonder dog with him. It's a GSP and just such a happy destructive puppy.

Russian Buyan-M small missile ship of the Baltic Fleet with newly installed anti-drone nets.
I work with the army for about 30 years, and this demonstrates one of the greatest things I learned.
Namely: If you want to find the one person in the room who has no idea what is going on, find the highest ranking officer. They really do live in a separate reality disconnected from logic and reason.

Yup. I was on a golf course in Florida and over heard some republicans talking about. One Said “He has always been a crook, the question is will he do what we want him to do”.
