Nearly 900 outbound oil tankers went dark to squeeze through the Strait of Hormuz. About two-thirds used shadow fleet tactics to avoid detection in May amid the Iran conflict. Kpler data shows 895 ships crossed the passage from March 1 to May 19. Vortexa reports the share going dark rose from 37 percent in the first month to 65 percent in May. Analysts note this AIS-off behavior is becoming standard protocol. Oil losses from the Middle East rose to an average of 710000 barrels per day starting in May. US Central Command intercepted 133 ships as of Thursday while aiding around 70 others near Oman.

The tweet argues that Iran's regime is threatening to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed unless it regains access to its frozen billions but the regime actually needs the strait open far more desperately since no oil flows means no imports no revenue and no survival.
It states that the regime is drowning and demanding a lifeline on its own terms while already demanding the twelve billion dollars held in Qatar as a precondition for nuclear talks.
The post calls on the US Treasury to issue secondary sanctions waivers enabling courts in Qatar Oman and the UAE to attach Iran's roughly twenty four billion dollars in restricted funds to compensate victims of regime attacks.
This approach delivers justice to victims and preemptively drains money that a future administration might return to the theocracy under a bad deal.

The tweet highlights a statement from the Japan Imam Council expressing concern that negative rhetoric toward Muslims along with incitement of anxiety and fear is increasing in Japan. The council asserts that Muslims represent an indispensable part of Japanese society and reaffirms their commitment to respecting the Constitution. The post author responds directly with skepticism asking who has actually been rejecting whom and urging readers to be real about the situation. The quoted material frames Muslims as integrated contributors while complaining of external hostility. The author's reply challenges the victim framing by flipping the rejection narrative back onto the council's perspective. This highlights ongoing debates around integration cultural compatibility and public discourse regarding Muslim communities in Japan.

Judicial Watch obtained heavily redacted FBI documents concerning Thomas Crooks the shooter in the July 13 2024 assassination attempt on President Trump. A SWAT officer recovered a gray remote device equipped with an antenna and multiple buttons from Crooks right pocket. An FBI electronic communication dated July 17 2024 notes that the Butler County Sheriff’s Office exchanged two emails with Crooks before the attempt though the content remains fully redacted and is labeled unremarkable beyond regular. A first responder interviewed by the FBI stated she received a body bag from Butler County and later provided it to an individual from either the FBI or United States Secret Service yet she could not recall which agency took possession or when the shooters body was removed from the roof.

U.S. forces seized the M/T Davina also known as Lenore overnight. The supertanker can carry up to two million barrels of oil and appears on U.S. Treasury sanctions lists tied to Iran's petroleum and petrochemical sectors. The vessel belongs to Iran's Ghost Fleet network of illicit ships that generate energy revenues for the regime while undermining regional stability and supporting attacks on U.S. partners. The operation forms part of broader DOJ efforts alongside whole-of-government partners to interrupt Iran's oil smuggling and the resulting funds that support the government and IRGC.

President Trump issued National Security Presidential Memorandum NSPM-11 titled Artificial Intelligence in the National Security Enterprise. The action publicly confirms the prior existence of two additional classified NSPMs numbered 9 and 10. These directives focus on embedding artificial intelligence capabilities across the national security enterprise. The release underscores ongoing efforts to formalize AI use in defense and intelligence functions while maintaining classification for related predecessor memoranda.

A California primary election update claims a late mail-in ballot drop of 450,000 votes shifted the governor's race. Trump-endorsed Steve Hilton sat at 26.6 percent with 1,639,335 votes while Xavier Becerra reached 26.7 percent with 1,655,927 votes, prompting the call for Becerra. The post notes Hilton had been near 28 percent earlier in the day and accuses officials of deliberately keeping the race tight before dumping ballots to steal the outcome at the end. It labels the result outright fraud.

A CIA officer named David Rush allegedly invented an entirely fabricated top-secret special access program framed as continuity of government planning to steal forty million dollars in gold bars. He reportedly read in two colleagues as unwitting participants and used a bogus government contract to convince a defense contractor to purchase large quantities of gold. The FBI raid on his residence recovered 303 gold bars valued at roughly forty million dollars along with two million dollars in cash and thirty-five luxury watches. Investigators determined he had lied about college degrees and faked service as a Navy pilot yet cleared the agency's rigorous background process. A judge ordered him detained as a flight risk. Several CIA personnel have been placed on leave while the investigation expands. The case highlights how extreme secrecy protocols intended to shield operations from foreign adversaries instead concealed the fraud internally for years.

Judicial Watch released new records obtained via FOIA from the FBI concerning the July 13 2024 assassination attempt on President Trump in Butler Pennsylvania. A July 17 2024 FBI electronic communication shows that the Butler Sheriff's Office exchanged two emails with Thomas Crooks before the attack at the rally. The nature and content of those emails remain redacted in the released documents. The disclosure comes from Judicial Watch's ongoing legal effort to obtain more details on Crooks and any prior interactions with law enforcement. No additional context on the purpose of the emails or any response from Crooks has been made public in the current release.

A pending Supreme Court case originating in Mississippi challenges state laws allowing ballots to be counted weeks after Election Day. The ruling could invalidate extended mail-in deadlines in multiple states, directly impacting California where late-counted ballots show Democrats gaining on Steve Hilton and Spencer Pratt. The case was already argued this term with a decision expected by June. Critics argue California's prolonged counting process creates an election month instead of an election day, fostering widespread distrust in results. The original post calls for the Supreme Court to ban such practices before the midterms to restore integrity. Multiple states' mail-in grace periods and postmark rules face potential nullification if the justices limit counting to Election Day or shortly after.

A Boomer writes directly to Gen Z acknowledging their anger over wage stagnation housing costs and broken trust. The letter explains Boomers repeatedly switched parties and voted for smaller government secure borders and America First policies only to watch politicians from both sides ignore those mandates. Decisions on open borders factory offshoring Social Security raids and leaving the gold standard came from the permanent Washington ruling class and the generation before Boomers. Boomers built the interstate system power grid early internet backbone and satellite networks delivering that infrastructure in better condition than received. The author admits the failure to stop the decline lies partly with their generation yet rejects claims they actively sought the current outcome and closes by affirming belief in hard work self reliance and equal opportunity for younger Americans.

President Trump has directed acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte to implement mass firings across U.S. intelligence agencies. The order targets entrenched personnel from previous administrations and aims to align the agencies more closely with the current administration's priorities on national security and accountability.

Rupert Lowe MP criticises the BBC for excluding Restore Britain from the Makerfield Question Time programme while inviting the Lib Dems, Tories and Greens. He calls the decision the most blatant example of BBC bias and questions why the establishment seeks to censor the party. Restore Britain’s platform includes the largest deportation programme in British history, abolition of the asylum system, net negative immigration, closure of visa routes from high-risk countries, an immigration red list and English language requirements for residency. Additional policies cover British-first agriculture and public procurement, radical cuts to welfare and regulation, restoration of self-defence rights, repeal of the Equality Act, an end to net zero, infrastructure-first housing, higher motorway speed limits, a binding death penalty referendum, removal of postal voting for non-residents, a rape gang crackdown and defunding of the BBC. Lowe urges supporters to share the platform widely.

State Trooper Christopher Baldner pulled over a family SUV for speeding on the New York Thruway. Driver Tristin Goods refused to show identification and escalated the encounter. The trooper deployed pepper spray. Goods then accelerated away at high speed. Baldner followed protocol with a pit maneuver that ended the pursuit. The SUV crashed. Goods' eleven year old daughter Monica died in the wreck. Baldner received a sentence of roughly seven years for manslaughter. Tristin Goods faced no charges after claiming he feared for his life during the stop he initiated.

The post highlights a precise projection in the Los Angeles mayoral race. If the remaining 38 percent of votes follow the exact proportion of the most recent batch counted, Nithya Raman would finish within 100 votes of Spencer Pratt. The analysis notes that the required allocation appears calculated in advance, implying those overseeing the count understand the specific rate needed to sideline Pratt. This claim centers on the mechanics of vote batching and final allocation in the ongoing tally. No external data or additional batches are referenced. The scenario raises direct questions about whether the outcome is being engineered through controlled proportions rather than organic counting.

A senior UK Home Office caseworker disclosed in November 2025 that staff faced intense pressure to approve asylum claims rapidly, leading to deliberate policy of ignoring criminal records for migrants accused of sex offenses carrying under 12 months UK sentence if convicted. One cited case involved an Afghan man repeatedly exposing himself to children in a play area whose claim was rejected only for the caseworker to face discipline. The revelation shows the government actively turns a blind eye rather than allowing oversights, placing the safety of women and children below the priority of admitting such arrivals.

The Bank of England wants to replace Winston Churchill with animals on its banknotes. The public can vote on 18 different animals, including dolphins, red foxes, barn owls, and pine martens. This proposal centers on changing the design of British currency to feature wildlife instead of the former prime minister. Voters will select from a list of 18 animals as potential replacements. Specific options highlighted include dolphins, red foxes, barn owls, and pine martens. The plan opens the decision to public input on which animals should appear on the notes. Winston Churchill has long appeared on certain denominations of Bank of England currency. The shift would mark a notable change in the imagery used on British banknotes.
