🇺🇸 Hikaru Nakamura criticizes anti-cheating measures at the Candidates. Speaking live on Kick with Jon Ludvig Hammer and Fiona Steil-Antoni, Nakamura called the security protocols “nonsense,” arguing they’ve gone too far. Players are scanned before and after games, with strict controls and multiple checks in place. “At some point you have to ask… who are we? Mossad agents in Iran or what? We’re just chess players.” He added that he hasn’t raised it with FIDE, saying he doesn’t see the point, and believes concerns about cheating at such a tightly controlled event are being exaggerated.


Surprise, surprise. It turns out antidepressants may have been propped up by deeply flawed science. “Most clinical drug trials have found the effectiveness of antidepressants is ON PAR with placebo,” wrote Dr. Joseph Mercola. On the other hand: “Large-scale meta-analyses show that physical exercise is the most effective remedy — about 1.5 times more effective than antidepressants — for depression.” You probably never heard that on TV because in 1996, Bill Clinton signed the Telecommunications Act, which allowed Big Pharma to buy off the news. Here’s what else they’re not telling you about antidepressants. If you or someone you love is taking them, you might want to read to this. 🧵

🇺🇸 Hikaru Nakamura: “If I don’t beat Sindarov, my chances become very slim.” After Round 4 of the 2026 Candidates, Nakamura didn’t hide his frustration. He called the result “very painful” after missing a real winning chance, admitting the bigger mistake was not choosing a more practical continuation to keep the pressure. With so many decisive games early on, and 🇺🇿 Javokhir Sindarov extending his lead—the margin for error is shrinking fast. Looking ahead, Hikaru was clear: “If I don’t win against Sindarov, it’s going to be very, very difficult for me to win the tournament.”
