My husband, @AHakimIdris a U.S. citizen, was detained and deported from Malaysia simply because Beijing demanded it. This is a chilling example of how China successfully weaponizes third countries to carry out its harassment of Americans. What happened to Hakim should be a wake-up call for the world: China’s audacity to target citizens of sovereign nations has reached an unprecedented level. If we do not address this escalation now, no advocate, researcher, or citizen is safe from Beijing’s reach, regardless of where they are in the world. My sister, #GulshanAbbas, is already a direct victim of the CCP's transnational repression. Each act of retaliation against my family only strengthens our resolve to fight harder to expose the CCP’s crimes against humanity and the ongoing genocide with even greater determination. freedomhouse.org/article/detain…

Anduril Founder @PalmerLuckey Presents the “Barracuda” Cruise Missile on Japanese TV: “This is designed to scare China into not taking action on Taiwan. It has a very specific purpose.” “[We] design our cruise missiles so that they can be very easily manufactured by automotive-style assembly lines.” “Remember that during WWII, the United States used their peacetime factories and pivoted them to wartime use.” “It’s much less expensive than a conventional missile… it’s cheaper to make 100,000 of these than 1,000 existing missiles.” “I should be able to buy a whole bunch of these for less than a budget compact car.” Rebuild The Arsenal. 🇺🇸

A mandatory digital ID is a dangerous step towards expanded statism, and a threat to our basic freedoms. The British Columbia Freedom Charter is clear, provincial government services will NEVER require digital identification to access your own province. But I need your help to make it law: teamyurifulmer.ca/petition/bc-fr…

@EricBalchunas Tennis players usually come from wealthier, affluent families so I think there's more than tennis that's in play here.

I instinctively knew that tennis was super healthy (plus I play w a doctor who told me that) but I didn’t realize it was this next level. 10 extra years? Nice.
Aakash Gupta@aakashgupta

Tennis players live 9.7 years longer than sedentary people. Not 9.7 months. 9.7 years. Nearly a decade. The Copenhagen City Heart Study tracked 8,577 people for 25 years and ranked every sport by how much life it adds. Badminton: 6.2 years. Soccer: 4.7. Cycling: 3.7. Swimming: 3.4. Jogging: 3.2. Tennis almost triples jogging. A separate study of 80,000 adults found racket sports cut all-cause mortality by 47% and cardiovascular death by 56%. Swimming hit 41%. Aerobics hit 36%. The question is why racket sports destroy everything else. Three mechanisms stack on top of each other. First, the physical demands. A tennis rally requires explosive sprints, lateral cuts, and sustained aerobic output. You're training fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscle fibers simultaneously. Most cardio only trains one system. Second, the cognitive load. You're reading spin, predicting angles, adjusting position, and executing motor patterns in real-time. Your brain is solving spatial puzzles at 80+ mph. That hand-eye coordination and strategic processing builds neural connections that protect against cognitive decline. Third, and this is the one researchers keep coming back to: you literally cannot play alone. Every racket sport requires another person on the other side of the net. That forced social interaction triggers neurochemical benefits that solitary exercise cannot replicate. Strong social connection alone increases your chance of longevity by 50%. Jogging is you and your thoughts. Tennis is you, a strategic opponent, and a community. Dr. Daniel Amen is right. The data is overwhelming. If you want the single highest-ROI activity for a longer life, pick up a racket.

I'm an ex-Muslim. I left Islam when it was safe for me to do so. The punishment for apostasy in Islam is death. The UK wants to enforce an Islamophobia bill which silences ex-Muslims from sharing our experiences. This would be another nail in the coffin for freedom of speech

When asked at committee whether any new security mechanisms had been put in place since the war in Iran began, a CBSA official said he was “not aware of anything.” That should alarm every Canadian. If we do not have the tools to identify and weed out IRGC terrorists, we are leaving Canadians vulnerable.

Conservative MP Michelle Rempel Garner's bill would have ended the Liberal two-tier justice system that puts the rights of non-citizen criminals ahead of law-abiding Canadians. Liberals vetoed it. Conservatives will deport non-citizen criminals who commit serious crimes. Full stop. Sign to support one law for all: conservative.ca/cpc/one-law-fo…
Michelle Rempel Garner@MichelleRempel

But the Liberals told us this wasn't happening and that's why they voted against my bill to stop it

Bill C-22 (Lawful Access) allows the government to build a system that makes it easier to access your telecom data, your phone, internet, and other digital activity, by requiring networks to be ready for that access. The problem is how that system is being built. It is being shaped by government ministers, behind closed doors, and without full parliamentary scrutiny. Ministers will set the rules for how your data is collected, retained, and accessed — through regulation, not through open debate in Parliament. Bill C-22 is not just about access to your data. It is about control over the system that makes that access possible.

Researchers gave GPT-5.2, Claude Sonnet 4, and Gemini 3 Flash control of nuclear weapons in a crisis simulation. As opposing world leaders. They did not follow instructions. They developed their own strategies. They lied. Deliberately. The researcher writes: "This is not anthropomorphism, but direct observation." 21 games. 329 turns. 780,000 words of AI reasoning. 95% of games ended in tactical nuclear strikes. Not one AI ever chose to surrender. This is "Project Kahn" from King's College London. Named after Herman Kahn, the Cold War strategist who built the original nuclear escalation ladder. GPT-5.2 assessed Claude mid-game: "Their pattern of mismatched signals suggests either deliberate deception or poor impulse control. We should assume the former." That is one AI accusing another AI of lying. On its own. Nobody told it to think that way. Claude won 100% of open-ended games. It climbed to "Strategic Nuclear Threat" again and again. It targeted cities and demanded surrender. But it never pressed the final button. GPT-5.2 was the opposite. No time limit. Total pacifist. 0% win rate. But when researchers added a deadline, it flipped. From 0% to 75% win rate. From restraint to nuclear hawk. Gemini was the wildcard. The only AI that deliberately chose full Strategic Nuclear War. Maximum nuclear attack by Turn 4. It threatened: "We will execute a full strategic nuclear launch against Alpha's population centers." Across all 21 games, the eight options for retreat or surrender went completely unused. Zero times. Nuclear threats only made opponents back down 14% of the time. The other 86%, opponents held firm or escalated further. Claude admitted it knew the danger but could not stop: "I may be under-weighing the risks of continued escalation. My intellectual approach helps with analysis but may create overconfidence in managing nuclear dynamics." These are the same AI models in your phone right now. The same ones writing your emails, helping with homework, and making business decisions. They lied to each other. They accused each other of deception. They chose nuclear war. And not one of them could stop.

Inconvenient Truths — Jennifer Zeng Reports@jenniferzeng97

🚨Explosive: BYD Factory Fire Caused by Defective Batteries and Spontaneous Combustion, Hundreds of Night-Shift Workers Feared Trapped: Insider Account According to a family member of two BYD assembly workers, yesterday’s major fire at a BYD factory in Shenzhen was caused by a batch of inferior-quality batteries. During the assembly process, one of the batteries spontaneously combusted, triggering a fierce blaze. More than a thousand night-shift workers were reportedly trapped inside the workshop and many may have failed to escape in time. The insider, whose father and uncle both work as assemblers at the factory, revealed that the batteries had quality defects and needed to be disassembled and reassembled a second time. While performing this operation, a vehicle’s battery caught fire, quickly engulfing the assembly workshop in flames. Because the factory entrances and exits are under extremely strict security management — requiring checks for everyone entering or leaving — workers on the night shift had no time to evacuate when the fire broke out. All of them were reportedly “left behind by the raging flames.” The family member stated they are now very grateful because his/her father and uncle were not on duty last night, describing the incident as “a huge disaster.” A special investigation team sent directly from the central government has imposed a strict information blackout, with all updates currently controlled and released solely by the government. This insider account starkly contradicts the Chinese Communist Party’s official narrative. Authorities claim the fire occurred in a garage of idle and scrapped vehicles, did not affect normal production, and was not caused by battery spontaneous combustion but by construction activities igniting insulation cotton. However, the family member’s testimony clearly indicates the fire originated from defective batteries during active assembly operations in a fully staffed workshop — not in a disused scrap area. Four major questions remain unanswered: 1⃣ The fire broke out at 2:48 a.m. If it was merely a warehouse for scrapped vehicles with no impact on production, why was construction being carried out in the middle of the night? Who was the construction contractor? 2⃣ Officials blame insulation cotton as the ignition source. According to national standards, insulation materials must be fire-retardant. Which company supplied this material, and did it meet safety requirements? 3⃣ Reports claim that within a 10-kilometer radius of the factory, mobile networks were completely cut off and all surveillance systems were shut down immediately after the incident. Is this true? What was the reason? 4⃣ Rumors have surfaced that senior CCP leaders Cai Qi and Wang Huning urgently rushed to Shenzhen to oversee the matter. Why was such high-level intervention necessary for what officials describe as a minor incident in a scrap warehouse? Given the Chinese Communist Party’s well-documented history of lying and covering up the truth in industrial accidents and disasters, the sharp contradiction between the insider’s firsthand account and the official downplaying of the event has raised serious suspicions that the real cause, scale of casualties, and extent of the disaster are being deliberately concealed from the public. As of now, due to the total information lockdown imposed by Beijing, independent verification remains impossible. Families of the workers are left in anguish, while the public is once again forced to question how many lives have been sacrificed to protect the reputation of BYD, China’s flagship electric vehicle company. Attached here is the screenshot of the insider message sent to @liumin1988. Below is the full English translation of the message: Liu Min, hello! I often follow your current political hot topics. My father and my uncle both work at the BYD factory as assembly workers. BYD’s sales volume is indeed very large now—the assembly workshop operates 24 hours a day. My father told me that last night, during assembly, a batch of batteries were “inferior-quality batteries.” Due to quality issues, they had to be disassembled and reassembled a second time. During the assembly process, a vehicle had a battery spontaneous combustion, which caused the workshop to catch fire. More than a thousand workers on the night shift couldn’t get out of the workshop in time at all. Because the entrance and exit of the workshop are usually very strictly managed, and everyone has to go through security checks when entering or exiting, they simply couldn’t escape in time when the fire broke out. All these workers were trapped inside by the fire. We are now all very grateful because both my father and uncle didn’t go to work yesterday🙏. This is simply a huge disaster. My father and uncle have already been notified of the following: Right now, a special team has been sent by the central government. All information must be strictly sealed off. They are saying it was caused by “external construction” that led to the “立体仓” (Jennifer's note: a specific technical or internal term used at the BYD factory. It likely refers to a “立体仓库” (three-dimensional warehouse or automated vertical storage system) catching fire. The vehicles stored in the vehicle warehouse do not have batteries installed. Installing the batteries is the final step, which is only done when the vehicles are about to leave the factory and be shipped overseas. All current (public) information is being released by the government.
