JUST IN: Mt. Everest guides accused of “poisoning” climbers to trigger helicopter rescues as part of an insurance scam.
The guides have allegedly been lacing hikers' food and pressuring them into taking expensive rescue helicopter evacuations.
"Guides with the trekking agencies allegedly poisoned tourists by putting baking soda in their food to trigger severe gastrointestinal distress that mimicked altitude sickness or food poisoning," the New York Post reports.
Operators would allegedly then forge medical documents and flight documents to charge international travel insurers.
According to police, the groups have received $19.69 million in insurance payouts.
Police in Nepal have charged 32 individuals for organized crime and fraud, including trekking company owners, helicopter operators, and hospital executives.

**SALESFORCE JUST BORROWED $25 BILLION TO BUY BACK THEIR OWN STOCK WHILE PLANNING THE LARGEST TECH MASSACRE IN HISTORY**
Marc Benioff is about to eliminate 45,000 human beings to pay for his $50 billion stock buyback scheme
Read that again. They took on DEBT to inflate their share price while preparing to destroy nearly half their workforce
Company is sitting on $34.9 billion in annual revenue. UP 11% year over year. Most profitable quarter in company history.
Benioff made $29.9 million last year. Stock buyback will pump his personal wealth by another $180 million.
Sources inside are saying the "workforce optimization" targets every division. Sales, engineering, support, marketing. Nobody is safe.
I'm hearing middle management got the kill lists yesterday. Termination emails queued for Monday morning. Badge access revoked at midnight Sunday.
The fucking audacity: they're calling it "strategic realignment for AI efficiency"
Translation: we borrowed billions to make our stock price go up and now 45,000 families have to pay for it
Salesforce employees logging in Monday morning are about to find out if they still have jobs
If you work there, screenshot everything. Download your contacts. Update your LinkedIn tonight.
This is what happens when CEOs treat human beings like line items on a balance sheet
Benioff just turned borrowing money into a weapon of mass destruction

Liftoff. The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon. Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

🦔 Oracle laid off between 20,000 and 30,000 employees Tuesday morning, roughly 18% of its global workforce, via a single email sent at 6am EST with no prior warning. System access was revoked almost immediately after. The cuts are expected to free up $8-10 billion in cash flow. Oracle's stock has lost more than half its value since September 2025 and the company now carries over $124 billion in debt, up from $89 billion a year ago, with free cash flow running negative $10 billion last quarter.
My Take
Oracle posted a 95% jump in net income last quarter and still eliminated 18% of its workforce by email before most people finished their morning coffee. This is not a company in distress in the traditional sense. It's a company that made an enormous debt-funded bet on AI infrastructure and is now converting its workforce into cash flow to service that debt.
We've covered Oracle's AI gamble for months. The $300 billion OpenAI deal through Stargate, $50 billion in capital expenditure this fiscal year, over $124 billion in total debt. Multiple US banks have pulled back from financing Oracle-linked data center projects. Bondholders have sued Oracle claiming it concealed how much additional debt the OpenAI deal would require. The credit default swap spread hit a three-year high earlier this year, meaning debt investors are genuinely nervous about getting paid back.
The workers who got that 6am email built the products Oracle has monetized for decades. The bet that eliminated their jobs was made by people who were already paid regardless of how it turns out. That is the part of the AI infrastructure race that doesn't show up in the capex announcements.
