When I received a message from a former Trump administration official in August, asking me to meet with his team at a prestigious think-tank, I never could have imagined I was conversing with an Iranian intelligence agent.
It was the start of a two-month sting - described by ASIO chief Mike Burgess as "sophisticated and targeted" - that ended with the notorious Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps gaining access to my personal emails and details in a major security breach.
The message from a former senior Trump administration contact I forged through my Wuhan reporting, who has a prominent profile with hundreds of thousands of followers, came on August 18 this year.
I had worked with him on my investigation into the origins of Covid-19. I trusted him and had met him in person during one of his visits to Australia.
Unbeknownst to either of us, his genuine X account had been infiltrated by an Iranian operative, using the ‘delegate feature’ on X, which gives a third party access to manage and operate your account.

Hunter Biden cheated on his wife with countless prostitutes. Then he cheated on his wife with his dead brother's widow. Then he cheated on his dead brother's widow with her sister. Then he impregnated a stripper and denied the child was his during his next engagement.
Now he’s bragging about his “traditional” values. That’s something only a Biden could do.

One of the biggest downtown housing crashes in America is happening right now in Nashville, TN.
Condo owners are liquidating. And people who bought near the peak are selling at $300k+ losses.
The previous condo owner bought it for $1.15 million in March 2024.
And just sold it for $825,000 this month.
That's a $325,000 loss (-28%) in just 2.5 years. And that's before realtor commissions and other expenses.
And this downturn will likely continue, as Downtown Nashville has the biggest supply pile-up of any dowtown area in America. (inventory 110% above normal).
In fact, typical values in Nashville 37203 already down 11.2% from peak, but clearly are dropping more in some cases.
Meaning condo sellers are facing an enormous amount of competition, with more price cuts likely coming in 2027.
Good news if you're looking to scoop up a discounted condo. Bad news if you bought near the peak.

Immediately upon arriving in DC in 2016, the not-yet-freshman congressmen sought publicity by claiming a DC taxi driver (of all things) was Islamophobic. She filed complaints with the DC taxi commission and Human Rights division. The report lists the witness: Her sister.
The name is redacted in the FOIAd version, but there is evidence that the sister was Leila Nur Said Elmi–not the sister she's acknowledged, Sahra Noor.
This may be what happened: A family named Omar got admitted to the US as refugees. Mohammed Elmi was a wealthy and powerful Somali military official, and he stole the Omars' identity and spots. The Omar family was smaller, so he could only bring himself, Ilhan, and Sahra.
The other Elmis, Leila and Ahmed, went to England, where older sister Leila raised Ahmed. Ahmed Elmi then wanted to come to the US, so he married his sister Ilhan.
Woah
🚨 ISRAEL VOTES: EARLY TURNOUT HITS 45-YEAR HIGH
Israelis are voting today in an election many describe as the most consequential in the Jewish State’s history.
By 10 a.m., more than 1.2 million people had cast ballots—16.68% of eligible voters, the highest turnout at that hour since 1981, according to Central Elections Committee figures reported by Ynet.
Strong early participation signals intense public engagement. The political impact will depend on which voting blocs turn out throughout the day.

BREAKING: Microsoft, $MSFT, is offering buyouts to 60,000 workers as part of the company’s efforts to cut costs amid AI adoption, per Bloomberg.
Personnel on select teams in the US, Canada, India, and the UK at a vice president level and below will be eligible.
This reflects ~27% of Microsoft's total workforce.
November is the beginning
Replying to @chamath
Pretty much.
As of the past few weeks, debt markets have almost entirely shut off access to money for any company that doesn’t have substantial revenue independent of AI data centers.
SpaceX closed $40B of debt for GPUs, but we’re investment grade and have Starlink & launch revenue.
That means the 200+ neoclouds are going to see guppy-level death and consolidation. Some will make it through, but not many.

After the February 2014 coup in Ukraine, George Soros admitted that his foundation played a big role in the destabilization of the country.
The left's favorite billionaire is the one who spends his money destabilizing and causing chaos in countries around the world.

Fertilizer through Hormuz has dropped to zero.
No fertilizer cargoes crossing the strait in September or October.
Before the war, about 20% of the world’s traded nitrogen fertilizer went through it, Fertilizer Daily reports.
The Gulf also supplies about half of the world’s traded sulfur.
Hear me out: urea isn’t the problem.
China raised its nitrogen exports about 47% and the US about 60%.
By the end of August urea was back to its January price, IFPRI data shows.
Sulfur is the problem.
It has more than doubled, to above $1,000 a tonne, and phosphate is up 25–30%.
You need sulfur to make phosphate fertilizer.
Mosaic has idled two Louisiana plants, and India’s fertilizer subsidy bill could pass 3 trillion rupees, against 1.71 trillion budgeted.
Oil found other ways out of the Gulf.
Sulfur hasn’t.
