Assad received a warm welcome and hopes his visit sparks a new & better era in terms of Syria - Saudi relations. Zelenskyy also attended the summit and tried to rally support against Russia. Zelenskyy vows Ukraine ‘will never submit’ and asked for continuous support from Saudi Arabia to Ukraine. Are we entering a new era in geopolitical relations?

BREAKING: CNN Gets More Republicans On-Air As It Seeks To Be Less Biased Warner's CEO says CNN is getting more Republicans on the air as it seeks political diversity. CNN's CEO told Republicans “they’re not going to get one more vote on Fox News.” Advertisers do not want to be part of an 'advocacy network', which is what CNN is starting to seem like. CNN has already taken heat after the Trump town hall on May 10, with chief international anchor Christiane Amanpour publicly criticizing the town hall in remarks at Columbia Journalism School. Just 3 days ago I was talking in our space that I expect the media to slowly shift to becoming less biased as they continue to hemorrhage trust. Could we see other networks, including Fox, make a move towards less bias and more objectivity?

BREAKING: Deutsche Bank Pay $75M to Epstein Victims Deutsche Bank will pay $75 million to settle litigation related to its alleged financial benefit from supporting Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking scheme. An unnamed defendant filed a proposed class-action lawsuit, claiming that the bank conducted business with Epstein while being aware of his use of funds for sex trafficking. The settlement does not imply an admission of wrongdoing by Deutsche Bank. Epstein began banking with Deutsche Bank in 2013 after JPMorgan Chase closed his accounts. The bank has previously settled allegations of compliance failures related to its work for Epstein. Even after Epstein's conviction in 2008 and his death in 2019, we are still uncovering more about his infamous sex trafficking operation. Feels like every day we dig up more dirt on Epstein. Who’s next?

BREAKING: Joe Biden’s Phone Records Subpoenaed The House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed phone records of a phone belonging to President Joe Biden that Hunter Biden’s business paid for, according to Peter Schweizer, Government Accountability Institute president in an interview on Tuesday. This revelation emerged from information found on Hunter Biden's laptop, indicating that he covered his father's phone expenses from 2009 to 2017, during Joe Biden's tenure as vice president. The Oversight Committee aims to investigate the individuals with whom Joe Biden communicated on this phone. During an interview, Peter Schweizer, the president of the Government Accountability Institute, disclosed this information and voiced concerns over the alleged removal of the IRS investigative team responsible for probing Hunter Biden's suspected tax evasion. Schweizer suspects that such removal might be unlawful and suggests the presence of political interference in the investigation. Schweizer's book, "Secret Empires," exposed Hunter Biden's failure to pay taxes on foreign income, resulting in an IRS inquiry and a grand jury investigation. While we all love to highlight the corruption in the U.S. legal system, I feel it's at least trying to hold both Biden and Trump accountable. The only issue is: How can we differentiate between legal accountability v.s. political corruption?

BREAKING: Montana BANS TikTok Montana Governor signed a bill banning TikTok in the state and prohibiting downloads of the app. The ban, set to take effect Jan 1, could face legal challenges while influencing a nationwide TikTok prohibition under consideration in Washington. The law prevents TikTok from operating in Montana and prohibits app stores like Google and Apple from making the app available for download. The alleged reason for the ban is that TikTok serves as a ‘national security risk’ to the U.S. This allegation is due to concerns TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, would leak U.S. citizens' data to the Chinese Communist Party. Free-speech advocates, including the ACLU, criticize the ban as a violation of First Amendment rights. The nationwide banning of TikTok is being used to as a scapegoat to introduce The Restrict Act, designed to destroy crypto while introducing VERY harsh censorship laws. The legislation's authors anticipate legal battles, while supporters claim legal precedence. The case could determine whether federal efforts to ban TikTok are upheld. While I understand the concerns that are leading to this ban, I worry this could set a very dangerous precedence. Instead, I much prefer forcing ByteDance to sell TikTok U.S. to an American-owned company. Is banning TikTok the right move? Or is it a violation of the first amendment?

BREAKING: DeSantis Set to Launch Presidential Bid Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is set to launch his 2024 presidential bid next week, accompanied by a fundraising blitz from his campaign donors. This announcement puts him in direct competition with former President Donald Trump. DeSantis, recognized for his conservative policies and COVID-19 response, intends to appeal to a wider range of voters while establishing his unique identity apart from Trump. This clash emphasizes the ongoing internal conflict within the Republican Party as it seeks to shape its post-Trump persona. The outcome of this competition will carry substantial implications for the party's future. Can DeSantis prevail over Trump?

BREAKING: Trump May Have Willfully Disregarded Protocols When Taking Classified Documents Sources familiar with the ongoing special counsel investigation into Trump have revealed that a collection of 16 records is set to be handed over to the investigators with major insight into the Mar-a-Lago classified documents probe. These records are believed to show Trump's knowledge and understanding of the proper process for declassifying documents, and will shed light on whether he willfully disregarded what he knew to be clearly established protocols. The significance of these 16 records lies in their potential to shed light on whether Trump adhered to established protocols and legal requirements when declassifying sensitive information. Trump claims the classified documents “became automatically declassified” as soon as he took them. If Trump is found guilty, he could face a number of penalties including: 1. Imprisonment: The Espionage Act of 1917, which makes it a crime to "willfully and unlawfully communicate, deliver, transmit, or disclose" classified information, carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. 2. Fines: The Espionage Act also allows for fines of up to $250,000 for each violation. 3. Barring from holding public office: If Trump is convicted of a felony, he could be barred from holding public office in the future. Did Trump break the law? or is this a politically motivated investigation?

DEVELOPMENT: Jeffrey Epstein Moved LARGE Sums Of Money For Noam Chomsky & Leon Botstein Noam Chomsky, a prominent political commentator & Philosopher, and Leon Botstein, President of Bard College, both have been revealed to have finance dealings with Jeffery Epstein. Epstein paid $150k to Leon Botstein and moved $270k for Noam Chomsky Both academics met with Epstein even after he was convicted as a sex offender. Both academics denied personal benefit and mentioned other philanthropic contributions. While these payments don’t immediately implicate anyone, it’s a reminder of the deep corruption that exists within our society. As we continue to dig deeper into Epstein’s web of influence, guilty accomplices will be brought to justice while innocent parties have their reputation tarnished just for doing business with Epstein. Who’s next to be exposed?

Josh Hawley asks Sam “Should we be worried about [A.I.] for our elections?” In regards to A.I. models helping organizations illicit certain behaviors from voters.

BREAKING: Trump To Release ALL JFK Assassination Files If Elected In an interview on Monday, Trump stated that he “released a lot, as you know. And I will release everything else,” referring to the Kennedy assassination records. Trump was also asked whether the public should be worried about anything that’s in the files. Trump replied: “Well, I don’t want to comment on that. But I will tell you that I have released a lot. I will release the remaining portion very early in my term.” Does this increase Trump’s likability with voters? Or is this just another political play by Trump with no real substance?

Elon Musk Responds To Epstein Connection Claims Earlier today we found out Elon Musk was subpoenaed in the legal case between Jeffery Epstein & JPMorgan Chase. We were given little to no information on why this happened, but Elon has responded. Elon states that Epstein NEVER advised him on anything and that he would NEVER need financial advice from a man like Epstein. Elon added he has not ‘forgiven’ JPMorgan for letting Tesla down 10 years ago. All of this adds to the narrative that this may be politically motivated, and the claim of Elon having any connection to Epstein holds little to no substance. This is a reminder to what I said earlier: Not everyone who met or spoke to Epstein is immediately involved in Epstein’s crimes. It’s important to scrutinize, but just as important to not immediately come to conclusions.

BREAKING: Jordan Invited Durham to Testify On Trump Russian Hoax In a significant development, Rep. Jim Jordan has announced plans to bring John Durham to testify before Congress regarding his report on the so-called "Russia hoax." By inviting John Durham to testify, Jordan aims to provide a platform for Durham to present his findings and address questions from members of Congress. The decision to invite Durham to testify carries significant political implications. Supporters of Trump and critics of the Russia investigation hope that the testimony will validate their claims of a politically motivated witch hunt. Durham's testimony before Congress is expected to provide a crucial opportunity for lawmakers from both sides of the aisle to question him about the scope of his investigation, the evidence gathered, and the conclusions drawn. It is likely that members of Congress will inquire about potential criminal conduct, the involvement of foreign actors, and the decision-making process within the FBI and other agencies

BREAKING: CNN On Trump's Exoneration “It is regardless devastating to the FBI and, to a degree, it does exonerate Donald Trump.” - Jake Tapper Is CNN becoming less bias? Will other mainstream media follow suit?

BREAKING: Durham Report Exposes Russia Hoax Against Trump In a shocking revelation, the three-year-long investigation led by special counsel John Durham has concluded that the FBI's comprehensive probe into the alleged connections between Donald Trump's campaign and Russia during the 2016 election was unjustified and lacked evidence. The report, consisting of over 300 pages, was released on Monday and highlights the utilization of "raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated intelligence" as the basis for initiating the "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation against Trump and Russia. Remarkably, the FBI employed a different standard when assessing concerns regarding alleged election interference in Hillary Clinton's campaign. Despite strong criticism of the agency's conduct, Durham did not recommend new charges or significant changes in handling politically charged investigations. The report also reveals a concerning "predisposition" among certain personnel to initiate an investigation into Trump. This revelation raises profound questions about the investigation's biased nature and the FBI's failure to uphold its mission of strictly adhering to the law. Do you agree with the Durham Report's assertion that there was a clear political agenda against Trump?

Bitcoin: A Real Problem Hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones asserts that Bitcoin has become less appealing. With the value of Bitcoin plummeting from approximately $31,000 to around $26,000, is he correct?

Elon Musk Meets the French President Today, Elon Musk met the French President, Emmanuel Macron, in Paris 🇫🇷 It appears that the President of France is open to meeting Elon, whereas the President of the United States, Joe Biden, is not 🇺🇸 This conclusion can be drawn from the fact that earlier this month, the White House organized a meeting with prominent figures in the field of artificial intelligence (A.I.), but Elon Musk was not extended an invitation. Is it concerning that the French President can have a discussion with Elon while the President of the United States is unwilling to do so?

BREAKING: VICE Officially Files For Bankruptcy Vice Media, known for it’s edgy content, files for bankruptcy despite raising a $250m loan from Fortress and Soros Fund Management. The filed documents disclose Vice's significant outstanding debt amounting to $834 million, which significantly surpasses the value it was recently negotiating for a potential sale. This comes shortly after they released their infamous hit-piece on @cobratate, which was poorly received by both fans & foes of Tate, and weeks after BuzzFeed News shut down In the meantime, trust in mainstream news continues to hit all-time lows. Less than 10% of Americans trust mainstream news, down from 50% just three decades ago. Trust is instead shifting to social media platforms, which are unfortunately riddled with censorship as well as misinformation. I don’t know how our democracy can continue functioning with such mistrust in media, large corporations and the government. There is a large void for trusted uncensored sources of information, and Twitter is at the forefront in filling that void. As Elon fights censorship, community notes fights misinformation, and Twitter thrives. Will Twitter replace mainstream media? Who's next to fall after Vice?
