🚨 Roberto De Zerbi on Brighton’s remarkable start to the season: “People see Brighton second in the table, scoring more goals than anyone, and they ask, ‘How do they keep doing this? They sell their best players every summer.’ I understand the question. I worked there. I asked it myself sometimes. When Alexis Mac Allister and Moisés Caicedo left, people outside the club looked at the money and thought Brighton had won the transfer window. But as a coach, you don’t look at the money. You look at your midfield and think, ‘Okay, who is going to play on Saturday?’ I remember conversations with the people at the club. You would ask about a player and they wouldn’t just give you a name. They knew his strengths, his weaknesses, what he needed to improve, how he would fit into the team. Sometimes they had been following him long before anybody was talking about selling the player he might replace. And that is the difference. At many clubs, the manager leaves and suddenly everybody wants to start again. New ideas, new players, new recruitment department, new project. Six months later, the manager is gone and they start another project. Brighton don’t do that. Of course, Graham Potter, myself and Fabian Hurzeler are different coaches. We don’t see every situation in exactly the same way. But Brighton know what kind of football they want. They don’t appoint a manager and then ask the entire club to become something else for him. They find someone who can build on what is already there. I used to tell people that at Brighton, you are not arriving to build a house on an empty piece of land. The foundations are there. Your job is to make the house better. And when you leave, they don’t knock it down. Look at them now. They lose players, people predict a difficult season, and then another young player comes into the team and plays like he has been there for five years. You think, ‘Where did they find this one?’ And before you have learned his name, somebody is already discussing how much a bigger club will pay for him. But the beautiful thing is that Brighton supporters can enjoy these players without feeling that the whole club will disappear when one of them leaves. You can buy a very good footballer. You can even buy eleven. What is much harder to buy is a club where the scouting, the coaching, the recruitment and the football all make sense together. Brighton have built that. And I think some much bigger clubs should stop asking which Brighton player they can sign next, and start asking why Brighton keep producing teams they want to take players from.”

Palantir invests in a new Ukrainian defense company Mykhailo Fedorov, who stepped down as Ukraine’s defense minister in July, is launching a startup in the defense technology sector. The first major investor in the project will be Palantir CEO Alex Karp. Ukraine has been working with Palantir since 2022. The company’s technologies are used to analyze intelligence data, air attacks and strike planning. Back in July, shortly after Fedorov’s resignation, Karp offered to launch a new project together with him.

Twitter 2 has officially launched. A judge gave the tentative ruling that X "abandoned" its rights to the Twitter trademark when Elon Musk tried to sue the new Twitter, so they've launched their own platform to compete with X.

‼️ THEY HAVE BEEN LYING TO YOU ABOUT OIL FOR 150 YEARS. 🛢️ Oil is not rare. It is not made from dead dinosaurs. It is the second most common liquid on Earth after water and it is literally the planet’s lifeblood. The entire “fossil fuel” scam was invented by the Rockefellers and the Smithsonian in the late 1800s to create artificial scarcity and jack up prices to insane levels. They fed you the biotic lie so you would believe oil is some finite dinosaur soup that is about to run dry. Total fabrication. Oil is abiotic. It is a liquid mineral cooked deep in the Earth’s mantle under crushing pressure and scorching heat. It is the natural lubricant for tectonic plates and the grease that keeps the planet’s massive gears turning smoothly. That is why wells drilled dry in the 1970s are filling back up again today. The Earth is pumping fresh oil from below and regenerating it nonstop. It does not run out. We are sucking the lubricant out of the planet’s engine and now the whole machine is starting to shake. More earthquakes. Creaking faults. Grinding plates. Coincidence? No. We are stripping the oil that keeps the Earth’s crust sliding properly and the system is literally seizing up. The so-called “fossil theory” is the greatest economic hack in human history. Real crude oil has almost zero biological markers. No nitrogen, no phosphorus, nothing that would survive if it came from dead organisms. It is pure polymeric hydrocarbons, primordial stuff from the Earth’s own formation. Thomas Gold tried to warn the world. He proved hydrocarbons like methane and oil rise from the deep mantle, not from ancient swamps. The establishment destroyed his reputation because the truth would collapse their entire control grid. If people knew oil is basically tap water for the planet, endlessly generated from below, the entire parasitic geopolitics of wars, sanctions, and price manipulation would evaporate overnight. They do not want you to know the Earth makes its own oil. They need you scared, dependent, and paying through the nose while they bleed the planet dry. Wake up. The dinosaurs had nothing to do with it. This is the biggest lie they ever sold us and it is killing the engine of the world. @SternDrewCrypto @CaptKylePatriot

5 years ago, Chinese cars were a joke. Today, BYD outsells Tesla. Let that sink in. BYD. Geely. NIO. XPENG. Zeekr. Not catching up. Taking over. Better tech. Sharper design. Half the price. The takeover isn’t coming. It’s already here.

The F-35 Lightning II pilot’s helmet ranks among the most sophisticated pieces of aviation equipment ever created. Developed by Collins Aerospace in partnership with Elbit Systems, each helmet costs approximately $400,000. The high price stems from its fully custom design: every helmet is tailored to the individual pilot’s head shape, interpupillary distance, and eye alignment to deliver perfect optical performance. Far more than simple protective gear, the helmet serves as the pilot’s primary interface with the aircraft. It fuses imagery from six infrared cameras positioned around the jet, creating a seamless 360-degree view displayed directly on the visor. This advanced system lets pilots “see through” the floor of the aircraft and view the ground below as if the jet were transparent. Critical flight data, targeting information, and sensor feeds are also projected onto the visor in real time. The helmet further features integrated night vision and high-precision head-tracking sensors, enabling pilots to lock onto targets simply by looking at them. Constructed from advanced lightweight materials such as Kevlar and carbon fiber, it balances protection, comfort, and functionality. However, its extreme precision means that even minor changes—like a haircut or slight weight fluctuation—can require recalibration, increasing long-term maintenance costs. This remarkable technology gives F-35 pilots an unprecedented level of situational awareness in modern aerial combat.

🌍West Africa is in the midst of an unprecedented opioid crisis. Synthetic drugs fueling this crisis aren't made in makeshift labs, but imported at scale from 🇮🇳India's low-cost high-efficiency pharmaceutical industry. Broadly about 30% of West Africa’s population has been found to use Tramadol and Codeine, prescription opioids and most widely abused substances. Another notoriously dangerous opioid mix is ‘Kush’ – a synthetic drug which commonly contains cannabinoids and synthetic opioids like nitazenes - more powerful than the infamous Fentanyl. Another popular opioid is Tapentadol, known on the street as “Red”. India, the world's largest producer of generic medicines and self-styled affordable “pharmacy of the World", has been caught red-handed before. Mumbai-based Aveo Pharmaceuticals was recently investigated by BBC for a drug called Tafrodol – a particularly addictive and deadly combination of Tapentadol and Carisoprodol, a muscle relaxant. It was not legal anywhere in the world, and only following the BBC reportage the Indian authorities seized the Aveo shipments. Yet the overall number of India’s opioid exports are increasing exponentially. Indian companies have shipped more than 320 million Tapentadol pills to West Africa over the last 5 years. The total value of only Tapentadol sent to the region has risen from about $27 million to $130 million in 2025. Moreover, opioids coming from India are especially produced and packaged for Africa in high-strength 200mg pills or more – a dosage that is not approved anywhere in the World even where the drug is allowed. The increasing opioid production and trade suggests serious gaps in export oversight, enforcement and cross-border drug controls both in India and Africa. Is there any realistic solution to this problem in sight - where poverty means greed, coupled with the lack of governance? france24.com/en/africa/20260…

“We Are Not Idiots” — Zelensky Rejects Donbas-for-Security Guarantees Deal President Volodymyr Zelenskyy dismissed proposals linking U.S. security guarantees to Ukraine giving up Donbas, calling the logic unacceptable. 💬 “They say guarantees will come only after the war ends — and the war will end when we leave Donbas. We are not idiots. We understand what that means,” Zelenskyy said in an interview with ZDF. 🔹 Zelenskyy noted that some U.S. figures, including Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, believe Russia is winning the war — but stressed they are mistaken, while Ukraine continues constructive dialogue with Washington. 🔹 He suggested a potential mutual step: if Russia stops attacking Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, Kyiv could refrain from targeting Russian energy facilities. 🔹 Zelenskyy also emphasized that Russia must pay for the damage caused — either voluntarily or through economic mechanisms.
