🔺 Top adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader: U.S. is “trapped” with Hormuz, and will never return to the America of before
Mohsen Rezaei, who commanded the IRGC for 16 years — the longest tenure in the organization’s history — and currently serves as military adviser to Iran’s new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, told Tasnim News that Iran has secured a historic strategic victory against the United States, as negotiations continue toward a deal to end the war.
🔹 “For the first time since World War II, America’s superpower status has collapsed. America after the ‘Ramadan War’ will never return to the America it was before. And we have brought about America’s decline in the Middle East.”
🔹 The U.S. military designed the recent battle to last in the most pessimistic scenario 15 days — and deployed forces accordingly. “After failing in the early days, they sought a unilateral ceasefire to rebuild their strength, but Iran’s strategy prevented their escape and the aggressors became trapped in the strategic snare of the Strait of Hormuz.”
🔹 “If the war expands from the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz to the Sea of Oman, Bab al-Mandab, and the Indian Ocean, it will take on vast and uncontrollable dimensions. The enemies, understanding the end of this dark corridor, fear entering the war and have turned to the negotiating table.”
🔹 “Iran has strong legal and security justifications for its sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz. This management is not to block free trade, but to prevent insecurity and military campaigns.”

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that the DHS Inspector General just opened an audit into a $38 billion warehouse-to-detention scheme that Kristi Noem and her top adviser Corey Lewandowski rammed through.
ICE bought 11 vacant warehouses in a matter of months, paying 11 to 13 percent above market value.
The properties weren’t even zoned for detention. No working plumbing for thousands of detainees. But Noem and Lewandowski pressured ICE to open them by year’s end anyway.
The result? At least $1 billion already spent on nine facilities. Nearly 50 contractors paid $1.7 billion since Trump took office.
Companies with zero immigration detention experience suddenly winning massive federal contracts.
One firm that didn’t even exist until June 2024 got a $6 million DHS contract this January.
Noem is gone.
Lewandowski is gone.
But the bill is still landing on the taxpayer, and the IG investigation is just getting started.
Accountability cannot end when the perpetrators walk out the door.
Every contract needs scrutiny.
Every dollar needs to be traced.
Every official who steered money to inexperienced contractors needs to answer under oath.

ChatGPT diagnosed 40 million people with a disease that was invented as a joke.
Not a real disease. Not a misunderstood disease. A completely fictional condition with a fake name, fake papers, and fake statistics.
And it told patients to see a specialist.
The disease is called Bixonimania. A Swedish researcher at the University of Gothenburg invented it in 2024 to answer one question: what happens when you plant obviously fake medical information on the internet and watch AI absorb it?
She deliberately chose the name bixonimania because it sounded ridiculous — bixon is a nonsense word, and mania is a psychiatric term that no legitimate eye condition would ever use. She uploaded two papers to a preprint server. Both were obviously fraudulent. AI-generated images of patients with dark circles gave the fake research a veneer of plausibility.
Then she waited.
She did not have to wait long.
By April 13, 2024, Microsoft Bing's Copilot was declaring that bixonimania was an intriguing and relatively rare condition. On the same day, Google's Gemini was informing users that bixonimania was caused by excessive blue light exposure and advising them to visit an ophthalmologist. Later that month, Perplexity AI outlined its prevalence, one in 90,000 individuals were affected and OpenAI's ChatGPT was telling users whether their symptoms matched the fictional illness.
One in 90,000. A precise statistic. For a disease that does not exist.
Every red flag was visible. The name was absurd. The papers were crude. The condition made no scientific sense. None of the AI systems flagged any of it.
They read the fake papers. They absorbed the fake statistics. They presented both to patients with clinical authority and zero hesitation.
Then it got worse.
Three researchers at the Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research in India published a paper in Cureus, a peer-reviewed journal owned by Springer Nature, the parent publisher of Nature itself that cited the bixonimania preprints as legitimate sources.
A real peer-reviewed paper. In a Springer Nature journal. Citing a fictional disease as established medical fact. Passing editorial review. Entering the permanent scientific record.
It was only retracted after the hoax became public.
Nature published a full investigation of the experiment. Alex Ruani, a health-misinformation researcher at University College London, called it a masterclass in how misinformation operates.
Here is the scale of what this means.
More than 40 million people turn to ChatGPT every day for health information, according to OpenAI's own analysis. ECRI, a US patient-safety nonprofit has named chatbot misuse the number-one health technology hazard of 2026. ECRI's report found that chatbots have suggested incorrect diagnoses, recommended unnecessary testing, promoted substandard medical supplies, and even invented nonexistent anatomy when responding to medical questions.
Number one. Out of every health technology hazard that exists in 2026.
An April 2026 study published in BMJ Open found that nearly half of the answers provided by leading AI chatbots to common health questions contain misleading or problematic information.
Nearly half. Of all health answers. From the tools 40 million people use every day.
Here is the line from the researcher that cuts through everything.
The Bixonimania case is striking precisely because it was engineered to be so obviously fake. The real question it raises is: what is passing through the same systems that is not nearly so easy to spot?
The experiment used a ridiculous name. Fraudulent papers. Visible red flags at every level.
It was designed to be caught.
It was not caught.
The AI that told patients about Bixonimania is the same AI they asked about their chest pain, their medication, their child's symptoms, and their cancer screening schedule.
40 million people. Every day.
And nobody is telling them that nearly half of what comes back may be wrong.

@LinkofSunshine anything but socialism. mass misery and every official institution upholding neoliberalistic oligarchy, anything but socialism, and if you complain let's write a bunch of thinkpieces about it

@petersavodnik it's not ad hominem. it's true and you simply don't like it, billionaire-funded fuck

A reminder that the ad hominem attack is little more than an admission that one has run out of important things to say.

The “Free Press” is wall-to-wall racist genocidal freaks and the only reason anyone has to take them seriously is because they’re patronized by Silicon Valley and then, eventually, the Ellisons worth $400 B. Without this patronage theyre fringe trolls writing screeds no one reads

Setting aside the constitutionality of whether he can stay, the grift is laughable and transparent: He hates America, and he's fighting as hard as he can to stay in America -- because only by staying can he continue playing the role of activist railing against the regime.

This chef made a full family meal for under $10.
Using just sausage, canned pasta sauce, shredded mozzarella, and elbow macaroni (totaling $9.45), he builds flavor in stages and ends up with a big, hearty meal — with enough left over for the next day if your family isn’t huge.
It’s proof that you don’t need to spend a lot to eat well when you know how to layer flavor properly.
What’s the cheapest meal you’ve made that still felt like a win?

@NoContextWeedd I wish this trend of people knowingly putting out obviously fake disinformation and then when they're called on it claim it was just satire or they were joking or whatever would fucking die already.
