🇮🇷 64 nights straight, Tehran’s Revolution Square is still packed. Chants ringing out: “Death is better for me than living in disgrace.” “We are the soldiers of al-Mujtaba, the valiant one.” x.com/DropSiteNews/s…

Furthermore the Su-57 is a 5th generation fighter plane in high demand of which Russia can make only a handful per year. And Ukraine can now even attack bases as far as 1700 km away from the front. For reference: these planes have a combat range of little over 1000 km.

Ukrainian drone pilots are training in GTA V. Not a joke. The best FPV drone trainer in Ukraine right now is Grand Theft Auto V. Vitrugan, a drone school certified by Ukraine’s MOD, modded GTA V into a full FPV sim. Real telemetry on screen. Distance, RSSI, flight time. Radiomaster TX16S remotes plugged in. Los Santos as the sandbox. Pilots say it feels close to a real rig. A 13-year-old game. A live war. Cheap, repeatable, yet effective. One small flag: Vitrugan themselves said it’s “not a replacement for real training” – more of a way to keep fingers sharp between missions.

Het bekladden van het Nationaal Monument op de Dam is een idiote en volstrekt onacceptabele actie. Al helemaal vandaag, op 4 mei. Laten we vandaag eensgezind zijn en samen met respect stilstaan.

🚨 BREAKING: The army is retreating and giving up positions. Putin is losing already captured territory Russia’s offensive has stalled. For the first time in a long while, Russia is not just standing still — it is moving backward, not forward. According to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), in April 2026 Russian forces withdrew from positions covering an area of 116 square kilometers. This is the first recorded instance of such territorial losses since August 2024. The Russian army has begun to lose territory it had previously captured. For Moscow, this is an especially troubling signal: after months of pressure and attempts to push the front line forward, there are now signs that holding the line is becoming increasingly difficult.

@WhiteHouse If you have all the cards and you’re playing Uno, you’re losing you fucking moron.

💥 Russia: Ukrainian drones attacked Moscow, likely to test Russian air defenses, 5 days before Putin's war parade on May 9th. The drones reached within 6km of the Kremlin.

May the fourth be with you

America’s “Favor” That Powers Its Empire U.S. troops in Germany are not there out of charity—and certainly not to “protect” Germans. They are there because without German soil, American global reach doesn’t function. Ramstein is the largest U.S. air base outside America. Stuttgart hosts EUCOM and AFRICOM—the command centers for operations across Europe and Africa. Landstuhl has been the lifeline for wounded U.S. soldiers from Iraq to Afghanistan. Even drone operations in places like Somalia rely on infrastructure routed through Germany. Remove that, and you don’t weaken Berlin—you blind Washington. Yet somehow the narrative persists: America is doing Germany a favour. That Europe is the dependent, the beneficiary, the so-called “freeloader.” It’s a convenient story. It’s also strategically backwards. Because the reality is simple: those bases are not acts of generosity. They are instruments of power. And they exist in Germany not for Germany’s benefit—but for America’s ability to operate far beyond its own borders. Take them away, and the question isn’t what Germany loses. It’s how much the United States does.

🚨🧵 Ukraine developed Lima, a secret electronic jamming system. In the first 3 months of 2026 Lima disabled: - 26 Kinzhal ballistic missiles ($130M) - 33 cruise missiles ($99M) - 10,000+ drones ($250M) 58 of 59 Kinzhal ballistic missiles in total since last year ($290 million)

Warren Buffett just warned that the US dollar could collapse and admitted he doesn't understand most of the stock market anymore. 95 years old, sitting on $380 billion in cash, and the first time watching from the sidelines instead of actively investing. And what he revealed at this weekend's Berkshire shareholder meeting is genuinely concerning: On the market, Buffett didn't hold back. He compared it to "a church with a casino attached" and said the casino has never been more packed. On one-day options: "That is not investing. It's not speculating. It's gambling. Totally." He pointed to the Avis short squeeze THIS WEEK. A rental car company that's been around for 50 years getting meme-squeezed in 2026. The same behavior that blew up retail traders with GameStop is back, except now it's hitting boring legacy companies with zero business being volatile. "We have lots more regulation now, but people spend their time figuring out how to get around the rules rather than follow the rules." That one sentence explains more about the current market than every CNBC segment combined. When asked why he's hoarding $380 billion instead of investing it, Buffett said something no one expected: "I understand fewer of the businesses as a percentage of the whole than I did 10 years ago. I have not learned new industries for some years. I'm not going to have an edge on a whole bunch of younger people that have actually grown up with it." Think about what he's actually saying... This is a man who made $140 billion by understanding businesses better than anyone alive. And he's telling you the current market is so detached from reality that even HE can't make sense of what's being valued and why. He quoted IBM's Tom Watson Sr.: "I'm smart in spots and I stay around those spots." In 60 years of managing money, he said MAYBE five were "really juicy." Five out of sixty. That means 92% of his career was spent WAITING while everyone else gambled. And he still ended up richer than all of them. Then the conversation turned to inflation and that's where it gets really interesting: Buffett said America is "not immune" from runaway inflation. He brought up countries that went bankrupt "six or seven times" in his lifetime. Compared today to right before Volcker had to rescue the dollar, when Americans were borrowing at 12% to buy farmland earning 6% because they believed the dollar would disappear. "Cash is trash" was the mentality. Nebraska farmers collapsed because of it. Entire communities wiped out not by a recession but by a BELIEF that the currency was dying. And Buffett sees that same energy building again. Then someone asked the question everyone wanted answered: Do you see a crash coming? "If you saw it coming, it wouldn't happen. The things people are talking about and thinking about? It's not going to happen. But there are things that can come out of the blue." He compared it to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 that triggered World War I. Nobody was discussing or anticipating it. But it changed the world overnight. "That's particularly true now because of the things that can come out of the sky." A 95yo man who has survived every crash, every war, every crisis of the last six decades just told you the market is a casino, the dollar isn't safe, and the real collapse will be something nobody sees coming. $380 billion in cash is his answer because he believes things are about to get much worse.

“Unprecedented destruction” Majority of U.S. military sites in the Middle East damaged by Iran, CNN investigation reveals. Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth desperately tried to keep the extent of the damage from the public so people wouldn’t see how badly this was botched. Now the images are coming out and they’re disturbing.

“I don't know when they'll cut my internet again, but we will not stop. We aren't waiting for outside help. It’s us and our Shah, and that’s enough for our revolution.” 🔥 An Iranian protester just managed to post this from inside the country. THIS is exactly why the Iranian people are the absolute best boots on the ground to defeat the Islamic Republic. We have the courage, the numbers, and the unwavering will to overthrow this terror state. You don't need to send your own troops. Just arm the people already fighting on the inside!

Yes!

The Epstein Files are surfacing again… Hard to witness… impossible to ignore. Their faces reveal more than words could. How can we forget them? Justice for every victim

🚨 Donald Trump could become the first U.S. president in history to go to prison. Thumbs up 👍 if you want this to happen.

We Muslims find it so hard to admit this, but over the years, Christianity has quietly shown through its actions that their religion is truly one of peace. They build hospitals, schools, charities, and help people without making too much noise about it. Meanwhile, we Muslims keep shouting "Islam is the religion of peace" from every corner... but the results on the ground don't always match the slogan. Be honest with ourselves for once: Should we conclude that Christianity is actually the religion of peace? What do you think?
