THE DOMINO EFFECT NOBODY IS EXPLAINING TO YOU Iran is not just a country at war. It's a funding machine. Since 1979, the Islamic regime has been the single biggest financier of terrorism in the Middle East. Here is what collapses the moment that regime falls: DOMINO 1: Hezbollah (Lebanon) Iran sends them $700M to $1B+ per year. That is their entire war budget. No Iran = no Hezbollah. DOMINO 2: Hamas (Gaza) 93% of Hamas funding comes from Iran. $100-350M per year in cash. No Iran = Hamas has no money to fight. DOMINO 3: Houthis (Yemen) $100-200M per year in direct transfers. Plus weapons. Plus training. Plus IRGC commanders on the ground. No Iran = Houthis go back to being a tribal militia with AKs. DOMINO 4: Iraqi Militias Kata'ib Hezbollah. Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq. Badr Organization. All funded, armed, and directed by Iran's IRGC. No Iran = they lose their patron. Fast. DOMINO 5: Syrian Militias Iran spent $16 BILLION propping up Assad. The entire Syrian proxy network runs on Iranian money. No Iran = no money, no mission. People keep asking why this operation matters. This is why. One source. Five networks. Billions in annual terror funding. Pull the source. The whole network dies.

He did exactly what he said he would do. Below was two days before the horrific massacres of his own people Jan 8th & 9th - by order of the Supreme leader - set in motion by Ali Larijani - and carried out by Police chief Radan. It is hard for us to fathom in the West that this brazen evil could be broadcast so publicly. History teaches us that another group were similarly public about their intentions. Nazi policies were widely available to the population. Berlin Radio pronounced the mass-execution of Jews in Białystok and the burning of synagogues in July 1941. Numerous speeches allude to the destruction of Jews. Hitler made a prophecy January 1939 about the destruction of all European Jews. He publicly referenced his prophecy at least four times in 1942. Hitler's emphasis on the prophecy during the height of the Holocaust meant that it was generally accepted as a shared ideal among German secular society. The vast majority of Iranians inside and outside the country completely and utterly reject the idea that even a single protester should have been killed and remain vocal about it especially while the digital blackout inside Iran continues. War is a catastrophe. But there is a bigger one lying ahead: if this regime is not gone for good after this calamitous conflict. #IranIsraelUSAWar

Ahmadreza Radan, Islamic Republic’s Chief of Police, on Iran protests (Jan 7, 2026): "We vow to come after the rioters, down to the very last one. We will come after every single person who spreads this, down to the last one." #IranProtests

Three weeks ahead of the Hungarian elections, the president of the United States is now recording messages of support for the pro-Russian Hungarian autocrat Viktor Orbán, the man who has managed to turn Hungary into the EU’s most corrupt and second poorest country.

Russian intelligence services proposed staging an “assassination attempt” on Orbán ahead of the elections According to The Washington Post, an internal SVR report considered a scenario of a fake attack on Viktor Orbán to boost his ratings. The document was reportedly obtained by European intelligence. The Kremlin has predictably denied everything. The idea emerged amid declining support for Orbán and his party ahead of the elections. The goal was to shift attention from the economy to эмоtions and fear. No real assassination attempt took place, but the very fact that it was discussed shows how important the outcome of the Hungarian elections is to Moscow.

turned out the iranian government was lying about not developing any ballistic missiles with range beyond 2000km. hardly surprising, but justification for removing their ballistic missile capability militarily.

Finnish MEP Aura Salla calls for urgent EU action to bypass Hungary’s vetoes and secure support for Ukraine. She urges limiting Hungary’s influence, expanding majority voting, and even preparing a mechanism to remove countries that repeatedly violate EU values.

The corpse count speaks louder than any theory — Josef Stalin murdered between 6 and 20 million of his own people through deliberate famines, mass executions, and gulags that made Hitler look like an amateur. Yet somehow we still have economics professors teaching that central planning can work if we just find the right technocrats. Stalin's Holodomor in Ukraine stands as the perfect case study in socialist arithmetic. When Ukrainian peasants resisted collectivization, Stalin simply starved them into submission — confiscating grain, banning travel, and posting guards to prevent anyone from escaping the famine zones. Millions died eating grass and bark while Soviet grain exports continued flowing to Western markets. The kulaks — prosperous farmers guilty of the crime of success — were liquidated entirely as a class. And this wasn't some accident or deviation from true socialism. This was central planning working exactly as designed. When the state owns all property and controls all production, human beings become mere inputs in the grand equation. Stalin understood what modern progressives refuse to admit: you cannot remake human nature without breaking a few million eggs. The same academic establishment that clutches pearls over free market "inequality" continues treating Marx as serious economic theory rather than a blueprint for mass murder. They'll spend hours debating whether Keynes got the multiplier effect right while treating Stalin's body count as an unfortunate implementation detail rather than the inevitable result of abolishing private property.

Some undeniable facts for all those who somehow think "USA is losing" in Iran: 1. Iran had the most sophisticated Russian and Chinese radar and anti-aircraft defenses. They have proven utterly useless. They have been completely dismantled. Not a single USA or even Israeli aircraft has been shot down. Not one. They enjoy such total air superiority that even A10s and Apaches, which I could outrun in my car, can fly with impunity anywhere they wish. 2. Iran's offensive capability has been reduced to zero. Their armed forces can't even take the field, they are all cowering in civilian areas in deep bunkers. The only reason they have not been all killed is because the USA wants to limit civilian casualties. If this was WW2, they would have been totally wiped out. It would have been the biggest massacre in the history of warfare. The lesson intelligent people will take from this is that if you buy Russian or Chinese defense systems, you are completely wasting your money: the USA can take them all out at will, at zero cost. If I were running a Russian defense company, I would be mentally preparing myself for unemployment.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський
Russian special services have operated and continue to operate through the Telegram messenger in Ukraine. We are aware of this, we detect it, and we counter it. As for Ukraine, we also operate through Telegram in Russia. Now, due to restrictions on Telegram in Russia, it will be more difficult to convey signals to their society, but nevertheless, the work will continue. I received a report on their new network – Max. We will also get to Max. Restrictions on social media and mobile communications in Russia are being introduced to establish total control. We understand what Putin is building, or has almost built already. But this is a step backward – a step 100 years back. They might as well switch to paper mail, telegraphs, and horses soon. That is the kind of civilization they have. Perhaps Putin even likes it. Maybe that is how he feels young again. From a conversation with journalists (3/3).

The @FBI has identified cyber actors associated with Russian Intelligence Services targeting users of commercial messaging applications, including Signal. The campaign targets individuals of high intelligence value, including current and former U.S. government officials, military personnel, political figures, and journalists.   Globally, this effort has resulted in unauthorized access to thousands of individual accounts. After gaining access, the actors can view messages and contact lists, send messages as the victim, and conduct additional phishing from a trusted identity. It's important for you to be aware and take action - this vulnerability is not with the application - but you as the end user.   The FBI and CISA have released a joint PSA to help you identify this activity and protect your accounts: ic3.gov/PSA/2026/PSA26…

🚨 Russia is sending a massive load of weapons and munitions to Iran disguised as a "humanitarian convoy" via Tajikistan. Exact playbook Russia used to send arms into east Ukraine in 2014 after annexing Crimea. These weapons will be used to murder Iranian civilians.
Igor Sushko@igorsushko

In 2014, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) made sure not to inspect the Russian trucks filled with munitions but still issued public statements that the trucks were "inspected" by Russians. Red Cross also refused to distribute the weapons.

⚡️🇫🇷 French hotels in Russia may be involved in human trafficking and exploitation of the deported Ukrainian children. This information from US short-seller Grizzly Research sent its shares down by 10%. #Accor runs global brands like Ibis, Novotel, Sofitel & Mercure, per @Reuters. Grizzly claims dozens of hotels - especially in Russia, Kazakhstan & Uzbekistan - accepted bookings for Ukrainian orphan girls from occupied Donetsk & Luhansk reg for “adoption” by 🇷🇺 families. Hotels allegedly promised secrecy from media, Accor HQ & Ukrainian embassies. Accor strongly denies any role in child trafficking. Internal probe + external verification underway; strict policies & 2025 audit in place. Photo: open sources

Missed this… Tucker says “you saw the Israelis blow up Qatar’s natural gas fields today” It was an Islamic Republic missile attack. This is the 3rd or 4th time in a week where Tucker falsely blames Israel for an IRGC attack on a gulf state.
