Summary

Iran says Hormuz route is agreed: Tehran says it has finalized a shipping route with Oman, blaming U.S. actions for delaying a final agreement.

Tehran claims victory: Iranian officials say the deal would lock in Iran's wartime gains and strategic leverage over Hormuz.

Mixed messages: Trump says a deal could come within days, while Iran insists the talks are only with Oman.

Draft outline emerges: Reports outline Iranian oversight of inbound traffic and Omani management of outbound shipping.

High stakes as pressure eased on markets, but geopolitical tensions high: A deal could ease energy market fears while leaving Iran with more influence over Hormuz than before the war.

Explosions reported in Dubai industrial district

 

Conflicting accounts suggest either a Houthi strike or an industrial accident caused the blasts

 

Several explosions were reportedly heard overnight at the Jebel Ali Free Zone, a major industrial and logistics district in Dubai, the UAE.

 

Online witness accounts described as many as seven loud blasts over a period of roughly 20 minutes. Videos and photographs purporting to show smoke and fires in the area circulated on social media, alongside reports that ambulances had been dispatched to the scene.

 

Some media outlets, including Iranian sources, claimed the explosions were caused by an attack launched by the Yemen-based Houthi movement, which is allied with Tehran. Other reports suggested an industrial accident had caused the blasts.

 

Jebel Ali, located southwest of central Dubai and beside the industrial zone, is home to one of the Middle East’s largest container ports. The area sustained damage earlier in the broader regional conflict that began in late February, when the US and Israel launched a bombing campaign against Iran.

 

Although the fighting has since subsided, the risk of renewed escalation remains high. On Monday, US President Donald Trump said he was giving Tehran a “last chance before decapitation” to accept a peace agreement on his terms.

 

The Houthis have for years been involved in a parallel conflict with Saudi Arabia and the UAE over political control of Yemen. Riyadh resumed attacks on Houthi targets last month after reportedly receiving encouragement from Trump.

Uniparty

 

Republican Senators Cave to Dems, Shield More Than $700 Billion in Untraceable Grant Spending

 

🚨 THE SENATE JUST GAVE THE SWAMP A MASSIVE WIN.

 

The Senate Appropriations Committee reportedly advanced another CR—and Republicans surrendered a Trump administration rule requiring top political appointees to review agency grants.

 

Why does that matter?

 

Because once federal grant money passes through states and other intermediaries, the public often loses the trail.

 

A Project On Government Oversight investigation reviewed nearly $959 BILLION in federal grants and found:

 

• Only 20.7% could be traced through prime-award data to a county, city, or ZIP code

• Broken subaward reporting accounted for only another 5%

• Approximately $712.6 BILLION could not be publicly traced below the state level

That does not necessarily mean the money vanished.

It means taxpayers cannot reliably see where enormous portions of it ultimately went, who received it, or what it accomplished.

 

And Congress’s response?

 

Less senior-level scrutiny.

Less accountability.

More power for unelected bureaucrats.

 

The Uni-Party wins.

The Establishment wins.

The administrative state wins.

The DEEP STATE wins.

 

Taxpayers lose.

The system isn’t merely broken.

It is designed to keep you from following the money.

Street shitters serve the JEW -

 

Indian Government Moves to Seize Christian Churches.

 

Proposed legislation in India could allow government control over religious organizations receiving funding from overseas, sparking international and domestic backlash.

 

India’s government is facing criticism over proposed changes to the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act (FCRA), with opponents saying they could allow authorities to take control of Christian churches and other religious organizations if their FCRA registrations are canceled. The Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill would create a “Designated Authority” to manage foreign-funded assets of organizations that lose their registrations, while requiring that any place of worship retain its religious character.

 

U.S. Republican Congressman Riley Moore (R-WV) called the proposal a “clear attack against Christians,” warning it could become a major issue in U.S.-India relations if enacted. The legislation would also reduce the maximum penalty for FCRA violations from five years in prison to one year. Indian lawmakers rejected Moore’s comments, arguing that the legislation is a domestic matter and criticizing foreign intervention. The Indian government is expected to introduce the amendment in the Lok Sabha (House of the People) next week. According to the Ministry of Home Affairs, 13,520 organizations received about $5.8 million in foreign funding between 2019 and 2022, while the FCRA portal lists 14,449 active certificates, 22,498 canceled registrations, and 15,212 expired certificates. India has a history of anti-Christian hatred, with recent reports expressing concern over growing numbers of attacks, which have increased 500 percent over the last decade, combined with a weak response from the majority-Hindu government.

 

“This is a clear attack against Christians. If this bill proceeds in this way, it would be a point of major concern in our bilateral relationship with India.” – Congressman Riley Moore

How Lockheed Martin, Raytheon & Bae Systems Are Propagandizing Children To Support War Through Stem

 

Alan MacLeod reports on Lockheed Martin, Raytheon & BAE Systems using the classroom to launder their images and enlist the next generation as cogs in the military-industrial complex.

 

Raytheon sponsors the Girl Scouts of America. BAE Systems is reading your toddlers their favorite fairytale stories. And Lockheed Martin funds children’s math and STEM festivals. This is done with great fanfare, supposedly to empower and inspire children to pursue their passion for science. In reality, though, these companies are attempting to launder their images and enlist the next generation to become cogs in the military-industrial complex.

 

All the while, these organizations’ products are being used across the world by the United States and Israel to commit war crimes – in Iran, Yemen, Palestine, and beyond – to target children.

 

MintPress explores the murky world of the arms companies training kids to bomb kids.

 

Normalizing War to Kids

When many Americans think of Raytheon (now officially rebranded as RTX Corporation), they don’t envisage rockets and cruise missiles; they think of math. For decades, the second-largest arms manufacturer on the planet has bankrolled a wide range of organizations aimed at getting children excited about STEM subjects.

 

Since 2009, Raytheon has been the title sponsor of MATHCOUNTS, a non-profit organization that provides engaging math programs for middle school students in every U.S. state, as well as organizing math competitions to find the brightest children in America.

 

In 2005, Raytheon launched its MathMovesU program, aimed, in its own words, “to inspire middle school students to get excited about math and science.” In addition to the materials provided, it has also spent millions on scholarships, grants, and study awards to thousands of students, teachers, and volunteers.

 

And its MathAlive! traveling exhibit promises, in rather outdated branding, to take math “2theXtreme”. MathAlive! Has also traveled to several countries in West Asia, including Qatar, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia – all of them among the biggest purchasers of Raytheon weapons technology.

 

The company also enjoys a longtime partnership with the Girl Scouts of the United States of America (GSUSA). In 2017, for example, it launched the GSUSA’s first national computer science program and cyber challenge for middle and high school girls.“

 

The progress to diversify the STEM workforce needs to be accelerated… At a time when technology is transforming the way we live and work, we can – and should – show young women a clear path to taking an active role in this transformation,” said Thomas A. Kennedy, then-Raytheon CEO; “Working together, Raytheon and Girl Scouts will help girls build confidence to see themselves as the robotics engineers, data scientists and cybersecurity professionals who will create a better tomorrow.”

 

Raytheon also spearheaded the GSUSA’s “Think Like a Programmer” project, which encourages girls to explore the world of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity, and developed many of the programming badges available to the scouts.

Iran denies Trump Hormuz deal claim while pointing finger at Kushner Witkoff oil trades

 

Iranian officials says Tehran has documented a pattern of oil market manipulation tied to Axios reports and Trump administration insiders, including evidence of a $9 billion insider trading operation linked to Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff.

 

Some of the documented timeline from the $9 billion insider profit:

 

Between April and May 2026, a series of suspiciously timed trades in oil futures markets preceded major Iran war announcements—each tied to reporting by Axios.

 

On March 23, approximately $500–580 million in shorts were placed 15 minutes before Trump announced he was postponing strikes on Iran. Oil dropped.

 

On April 7, roughly $950–960 million in shorts were placed hours before Trump announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran. Oil fell around 15 percent.

 

On April 17, around $760 million in shorts were placed 20 minutes before Iran’s foreign minister announced the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Oil dropped.

 

On April 21, approximately $430 million in shorts were placed 15 minutes before Trump extended the ceasefire. Oil dropped again.

 

On May 6, nearly $920 million to $1.7 billion in crude oil shorts were placed approximately 70 minutes before an Axios scoop claimed the U.S. and Iran were near a “14-point agreement.” Oil dropped 12 percent. Traders made an estimated $125 million. Iran called the report “the Americans’ wish list.”

 

Previously, a senior Iranian official told investigative outlet Drop Site News that Tehran privately warned JD Vance during Switzerland talks that Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff were “abusing” negotiations—”more interested in exploiting insider knowledge to profit in financial markets than reaching a deal.”

AIPAC-backed Wesley Bell defeats Israel critic Cori Bush in Missouri primary rematch

 

Democratic socialist Bush was first beaten by Bell in a 2024 face-off; Bush made Bell’s ties to AIPAC a central issue in her campaign

 

Missouri Rep. Wesley Bell registered a resounding victory in his Democratic primary Tuesday against former Rep. Cori Bush, a prominent Democratic socialist and ardent critic of Israel whom Bell had also defeated in the 2024 primary.

 

Bell is a supporter of Israel and was backed by the pro-Israel lobby AIPAC.

 

The Associated Press called the race just an hour after polls closed, at 8:02pm local time. By the time 99% of the vote was counted, Bell had garnered 59.2% of the ballots to Bush’s 36.9%.

 

“We approached this in a very simple way,” Bell said in his victory speech. “We’re going to work for the people right here in St. Louis.”

 

Recognizing that the area “has not seen its best days,” with families struggling to buy groceries and fill up their gas tanks, Bell stressed the importance of “coming together” in his victory speech. He also reached out directly to his primary opponents, stressing the “need to start rallying around one another.”

 

Bush, in her concession speech, continued her attacks on her opponent.

 

“St. Louis, you deserve a representative that sees you, that hears you, that cares about every single one of you,” she said, blasting Bell for not attending certain candidate forums and accusing him of “running a whole campaign on smears.”

 

“For the next two years, this community will be represented by someone that didn’t deem you valuable enough,” Bush added.

The primary is a déjà vu moment for St. Louis. The same pair of candidates also faced off in the district’s 2024 primary. At the time, the district was represented by Bush.

 

Bell prevailed that year in a clash that was largely defined by a $9 million influx of AIPAC cash supporting him. In this rematch, Bush made the American Israel Public Affairs Committee a central issue in her campaign, similar to other anti-Israel candidates affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America.

 

In response to Tuesday’s election results, AIPAC posted its congratulations to Bell on X: “Our community was proud to support a strong, principled Democratic leader,” the lobby stated.

 

The Washington, D.C.-based Jewish Democratic Council of America, which had mobilized networks of voters to make phone calls in support of Bell, was quick to congratulate the congressman following his victory.

 

“Rep. Bell is a leader in taking on Trump’s corruption,” the group posted on X. “We look forward to seeing him continue to fight for our Jewish and Democratic values.”==

Preemptive pardons are making Washington look like a criminal syndicate

 

Nothing says confidence in clean government quite like giving someone a pardon before they’re even charged with a crime.

 

Think about what a preemptive pardon actually says.

 

“You are free for whatever you may have done in the past, and the federal government can’t prosecute you for it.”

 

That used to be an extraordinary constitutional power reserved for extraordinary moments.

 

Now it feels like it’s becoming standard operating procedure.

 

On his way out, President Biden issued preemptive pardons covering several family members, along with Anthony Fauci, Gen. Mark Milley, and members and staff of the January 6 committee, arguing they faced the risk of political retaliation.

 

Months later, President Trump issued preemptive pardons for dozens of people connected to efforts surrounding the 2020 election, including Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, John Eastman, Sidney Powell, and Jenna Ellis. Earlier, he had also granted broad clemency to more than 1,500 people charged or convicted in connection with January 6.

 

The legal authority isn’t really the story.

 

The Constitution gives presidents broad pardon powers, and the Supreme Court recognized long ago in Ex parte Garland that a pardon can apply after an act but before charges are filed.

 

The story is what this says about Washington.

 

Both parties now seem to be working from the same assumption.

 

When power changes hands, protect your own first.

 

One administration says it’s necessary because the next administration can’t be trusted.

 

The next administration makes the exact same argument.

 

Then the cycle gets bigger.

 

Reports have suggested discussions inside the White House about additional large pardon packages, including ideas tied to the nation’s 250th anniversary. President Trump has also publicly discussed the possibility of extending preemptive pardons to aides before leaving office. Meanwhile, Reuters has reported that much of the second-term clemency process has increasingly bypassed the traditional Justice Department review process in favor of a more direct White House approach.

 

That should make everyone uncomfortable, regardless of which party they support.

 

Because once preemptive pardons become routine, they stop looking like rare constitutional safeguards.

 

They start looking like political insurance policies.

Central banks have added equities to house prices for their target list

 

In the latter part of this week we have seen three of the world’s major central banks decide that they can turn a blind eye to the inflationary risks provided by the conflict in the Middle East, of which the latest is the Bank of Japan.

 

At the Monetary Policy Meeting held today, the Policy Board of the Bank of Japan decided, by an 8-1 majority vote, to set the following guideline for money market operations for the intermeeting period:

[Note]

The Bank will encourage the uncollateralized overnight call rate to remain at around 1.0 percent.

 

You don’t need to take my word for it as they confess it here.

 

The year-on-year rate of increase in the consumer price index (CPI, all items less fresh food) is likely to accelerate to a level clearly above 2 percent from the second half of fiscal

2026.

 

This is in spite of government efforts.

 

due to factors such as the effects of the government’s

measures to reduce the household burden of higher energy prices (electricity and gas charges) during summer.

 

Even more important is what it will be and here are their thoughts on that.

 

Regarding the outlook for the CPI, risks are skewed to the upside. As for underlying CPI inflation, there is a risk that it will deviate upward to a level above the price stability target of 2 percent, given factors such as firms’ behavior shifting more toward raising wages and prices and medium- to long-term inflation expectations continuing to rise. It is necessary to pay due attention to keep such a risk from materializing and thereby exerting an adverse impact on the economy afterward.

 

If we translate that from central banker speech to ordinary language they expect inflation to be over 2% and their response is open mouth operations ” pay due attention to keep such a risk from materializing” rather than raising interest-rates as they should. I pointed out on October 2nd 2023 that their policy would be driven by their balance sheet because each interest-rate increase raises their costs and mean they make bigger losses and even more crucially cannot deny it. I am not sure how I could have been more right about that.

 

Wealth Effects

 

The conventional view is that central banks use house prices for this and of course they do. But we have also seen this week another in the phase of equity friendly policies of which this week’s version has been no interest-rate rises in the US,UK or Japan. Let me start with the state of play in my home country the UK.

 

The FTSE 100 climbed to another record high on Friday morning, moving closer to the 11,000-point mark as strong gains from Sainsbury’s and NatWest lifted the index. London’s blue-chip benchmark rose around 0.7% during the opening half hour and reached a new intraday peak of 10,981.83. (Share Talk)

‘Silent extermination’: Israel bombs medicine stores in Gaza, worsening the Strip’s dire healthcare crisis

 

An Israeli strike destroyed two major medicine warehouses in Deir al-Balah, the latest Israeli attack on Gaza's failing health system. Gaza’s Health Ministry says medicine shortages are now killing three cancer patients a day.

 

Before dawn on Sunday, August 2, the Israeli military struck a pharmaceutical warehouse adjacent to al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, in what Palestinian health officials described as the latest step in a systematic campaign to dismantle Gaza’s healthcare system.

 

The attack inflicted extensive damage beyond the targeted facility. Two of the hospital’s four medicine warehouses were completely destroyed, while the remaining two sustained severe structural damage, the Gaza Ministry of Health said in a statement. The blast also tore through dozens of tents sheltering displaced families who had sought refuge inside the hospital compound after losing their homes.

 

According to the Health Ministry, the strike also caused significant damage to a nearby outpatient clinic building and destroyed already critically low stocks of medications and medical supplies.

 

“The attack came on top of months of restrictions on the entry of medical aid and the continued prevention of thousands of patients from traveling abroad for treatment,” the statement added, accusing Israel’s strikes as “systematic and deliberate.”

 

Since the beginning of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, the healthcare system in the Strip has been battered by overlapping crises. Medical facilities have come under repeated attack, with hospitals and clinics damaged or destroyed across the Strip. Of the hospitals that once served Gaza’s population, only a small number remain operational and continue to receive patients.

 

Dr. Khalil al-Daqran, spokesperson for al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, said that Sunday’s strike was part of that broader assault on Gaza’s health sector. “The occupation seeks the complete collapse of Gaza’s healthcare system,” he said. “The missiles completely destroyed the warehouse, leaving behind a massive crater and placing large numbers of patients in grave danger.”

 

According to al-Daqran, the destroyed warehouses contained medicines for patients with chronic illnesses, including kidney disease. With those supplies now destroyed, he warned, many patients face an immediate threat to their lives.

 

He noted that medicines reaching Gaza’s hospitals are largely supplied through international organizations such as the World Health Organization, but that Israel “shows no regard for international law or international organizations,” citing the destruction of the warehouse as evidence.

It Appears That the US Military Accidentally Killed Everybody on Board a Civilian Medevac Flight in New Mexico

 

"When those lights go out, man, you know you are in big trouble."

 

When the Federal Aviation Administration shut down air traffic to El Paso Airport earlier this year, nobody could have guessed than an experimental high-energy laser weapon was the cause. After days of chaos and speculation, it was revealed that Customs and Border Patrol officials had fired off a laser volley from a US Army base adjacent the El Paso Airport.

 

Though the trigger-happy Border Patrol grunts evidently thought they were firing at drug-smuggling drones, their real target turned out to be a kids’ party balloon. Regardless, it was later reported that the cutting-edge weapon was taken for a test-drive a week before FAA and Pentagon officials had a chance to discuss how to safely implement the laser device, making it a small miracle that nobody in the air was killed.

 

Not every use of an experimental aerospace weapon goes off without a hitch, however.

 

New bombshell reporting by Wired reveals an incident in which the testing of an experimental GPS jammer resulted in a medical plane crashing into the side of a mountain.

 

The horrifying incident happened in May, the publication reports, when a small twin-engine medevac aircraft carrying two pilots and two medical workers departed from Roswell, New Mexico. Heading West for the small mountain village of Ruidoso, the crew became the victim of an electronic warfare exercise being conducted at the nearby White Sands Missile Range, a test which rendered their navigational system inoperable.

 

Due to a combination of low visibility and an air-traffic control that was stretched far beyond capacity — at least three other planes reported navigation disruptions due to the GPS jamming — the pilots failed to register a mountainous formation between their plane and the landing strip.

 

As airline pilot and aviation crash analyst Juan Browne told Wired, the visual effect of that approach would have been stupefying. “When those lights go out, man, you know you are in big trouble,” Browne explained.

 

Unfortunately, the disoriented crew ran straight into the side of a mountain they likely never saw, resulting in the loss of every life on board. It’s the first known instance where military GPS jamming played a role in downing a civilian plane in US airspace. Reported incidents of GPS jamming within the continental US have skyrocketed in recent years. According to the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, the number of GPS interference events went from four in 2020 to 50 in 2024, and 40 across 2025.

 

Though the crew involved in the New Mexico crash was warned that GPS interference may be present, there evidently weren’t enough safeguards or air traffic control personnel in place to prevent a tragedy.

UK government launches legal action to stop the release of data showing crimes committed by migrants

 

The Labour government is heading to court to block the publication of migrant crime statistics.

 

Following a year-long battle at the Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”), it was ruled that the Ministry of Justice must provide the Centre for Migration Control with the most comprehensive dataset on migrant crime in British history.

 

The Labour government is now trying to stop the public from learning the truth.

 

The Daily Telegraph has run this story: ‘David Lammy fighting to ‘cover up’ foreigners’ crimes’.

 

The Centre for Migration Control today announces a campaign to fight back against this cover-up. The public deserves to know the truth; the country requires that this information be published.

 

Help the Centre for Migration Control fight back against the Labour government by supporting our Crowdfunder: End the Migrant Crime Cover-Up.

 

Background

For the last year, the Centre for Migration Control (“CMC”) has been locked in a battle at the Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”) – a non-department government body tasked with upholding public access to government data – with the Ministry of Justice.

 

In June 2025 the CMC requested via the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (“FoI”) that the Ministry of Justice produce statistics on the total number of convictions between 2018 and 2024 ( broken down by nationality) for detailed offences within the following headline offence categories: “violence against the person,” “sexual offences,” “drug offences,” “criminal damage and arson,” “possession of weapons,” “theft offences” and “robbery.”

 

This information would have been the single biggest release of migrant crime statistics in British history and, for the first time, told us how many migrants are convicted every year of murder, rape, arson, the importation and supply of class A drugs, the sale of weapons, along with hundreds of other offences.

 

Unlike other European nations – including Denmark, Germany, and Sweden – the British government does not publish this information. This is despite the information being readily available on the Police National Computer.

 

The Ministry of Justice refused this FoI request and, on 10 July 2025, the CMC requested that the ICO make a ruling on whether it was appropriate for the data to be withheld.

 

On 22 June 2026, over 12 months after the initial FoI request, the ICO ruled unambiguously that the Ministry of Justicemust “disclose the requested information” to the CMC.

STOCK MARKET IS RUN BY AI

 

The Stock markets are now run by algorithms and machines and sentiment analysis models.

 

These Sentiment models do NOT read a sentence and decide whether it is true. They read who said it, then apply a source authority weight. A head of state carries the highest multiplier in the stack, and no analyst thread will ever match it.

 

So when the line is that the “Strait is open”, that talks are advancing, that normalization is close, the machine does not verify the claim.

 

It measures that the claim was made, by whom, and how fast it travelled.

 

Tens of millions of followers plus news channels pickup registers as breadth. Breadth gets read as confirmation. Crude, tanker rates, war risk premiums and defense names reprice inside seconds.

 

Verification lands hours later, sometimes days. By then the position is closed and the correction moves nothing.

 

Markets have always moved on information. What is new is that they now move on attribution, and the machinery, AI and sentiment analysis cannot tell the difference between a fact and a well sourced assertion.

 

Oil still cannot get through the strait of hormuz but the AI does not consider that, it considers that Trump (the actual President of the United States issued the statement and that statement gets ranked the highest, because all news channels and media channels start to report on it).
