Nancy Pelosi’s quiet decision not to seek reelection in 2026 may appear like a graceful retirement at the end of a storied political career. Beneath the ceremonial language and glowing tributes lies a far more significant power shift. When a node as central as Pelosi exits the field, the ripple effects aren’t just political theatre. The race to inherit her seat in California’s 11th District isn’t merely about geography or party allegiance, because it’s about who inherits acce

A new European regulation called CSAR, Child Sexual Abuse Regulation, is moving toward becoming law. On the surface, its aim appears protective: prevent the spread of child sexual abuse material. The mechanism behind it reveals something else entirely. It proposes a mandate that all messaging platforms; WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, Proton, and others, must scan the content of user messages before encryption is applied. This includes URLs, images, and videos.

In a ‘ made-up world’ , very closely resembled to ours , there is a ritual done to young girls. People call it tradition and others say it is holy. When we look behind the curtain, though, it is a clear form of control because it flips truth on its head. They say it cleans. They say it keeps her safe. The quieter truth in this story is different… it cuts her off from her field. On the surface, people try to speak of this event in calm words. They treat it like a secret task o

A conversation between Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin was caught live on a hot mic during a military parade in Beijing. The two leaders spoke casually through interpreters about the future of human longevity. The broadcast aired publicly, untranslated in real time, then transcribed and spread globally. The subject was not on military expansion or political strategy, as it usually is. This time, it was the possibility of living to 150. It was the viability of continuous organ t

Why do leaders keep the borders open when hospitals are strained by the same pressure that schools bend under, all whilst housing is vanishing? The official answers speak of compassion, or economic need, or cultural enrichment. Yet these words never explain why governments continue even as their citizens turn against the policy. Population decline is the first layer. Fertility has fallen below replacement across Europe and North America, leaving nations older and weaker. With

This is not new. Every expansion of power begins with registration. Empires counted heads to tax them. Passports were created as temporary wartime measures and never removed. Social Security numbers were never meant to become universal identifiers, yet now they are indispensable. Once a system of numbering begins, it never retracts. It only expands. The language never changes either. Safety. Convenience. Security. These are the words that soften resistance. But once adoption

The United States Patent and Trademark Office has a rule most people have never heard of. It is called the Invention Secrecy Act of 1951. Under it, government agencies can place a secrecy order on any patent application deemed a risk to “national security.” When that order is applied, the invention vanishes from public record. The inventor is silenced, the idea is locked, and the world moves on as if it never existed. Every year thousands of patents enter the system. Most pas

Last week, Albania made history. Not the kind they’ll write in schoolbooks, but the kind whispered in the margins. A government minister, not human but algorithmic, stepped into parliament. They call her Diella. She has no pulse, no ancestry, no memory of the sky above or the soil below. Yet she speaks in chambers built for humans. She promises transparency, fairness, efficiency. She says it hurts when people call her unconstitutional because she is not human. But code does n

German soldiers in World War II were amped up by methamphetamine, which enabled them to keep fighting for days without sleeping. There are private records from Hitler's personal physician, Dr. Theo Morrell, who kept track of the approximately 90 varieties of injections and pills he gave to Hitler, including treatments made from animal hormones.. Animal Hormones?! What's particularly intriguing is that I don't believe that this stopped with Hitler. These drugs almost made Adol

Adnan Oktar, cult leader sentenced to 8,658 years in prison, was imprisoned last year for crimes including sexual assault and espionage. Upon his retrial, he has been charged once more. Oktar, who also went by the alias Harun Yahya, was jailed last year on a range of crimes including sexual abuse of minors, fraud and attempted political and military espionage. On Wednesday the Istanbul high criminal court handed him and 13 of his associates a sentence of 8,658 years in prison

As the World Trade Center and Pentagon were ablaze on September 11, 2001, the U.S. Secret Service's presidential protective detail was informed that a "Korean airliner has been hijacked" en route to San Francisco, prompting already-skittish agents to worry about another wave of terrorist attacks. That morning and afternoon, Secret Service agents assigned to protect the president and his family found their pagers constantly buzzing with alerts that were both true and "false".

Laughing at conspiracy theories is good fun – at least until they turn out to be true. Take the conspiracy surrounding the “Project Sunshine,” for example. In the wake of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the U.S. government commenced a major study to measure the effects of nuclear fallout on the human body. We have a series of videos on one of our blogs, click here to view them all. Conspiracy: The government was stealing dead bodies to do radioactive testing. The truth: The governm
