Transgender athletes and those athletes with differences of sexual development (DSD) will reportedly be banned from competing in female competitions at the Olympics from early next year.
A report in The Times claims this comes after a science-based review undertaken by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) which looked into the permanent physical advantages of being born male.
Previously, Olympic sports had the power individually to decide whether transgender women could compete if they had reduced testosterone levels.
A Somali source in Maine offers this explainer on the clan dynamics unfolding in Maine/U.S. politics:
The Darood clan dominates Somali political representation in Maine but by population, other clans have massive presence but for some reasons the Darood LOVE power. People including figures like Ilhan Omar, Deqa Dhalac, Yusuf Yusuf, Omar Fateh, Safiya Khalid, Abdullahi Ali are from the same sub-clans of Darood (Ogaden and Majeeteen). In Somalia, however, the Darood are just one of the four major clans—alongside Hawiye, Rahanweyn, and Dir—without overall dominance.
Somali immigrants from these other clans, particularly in Minnesota’s large diaspora, have grown resentful of Darood’s rising influence in U.S. politics. For instance, when Nasri Warsame (non-Darood) ran for office in Minneapolis back in 2021, Darood-aligned groups reportedly blocked him and supported an Indian-born woman instead, preferring a non-Somali over someone from a rival clan.
This intra-clan rivalry has led Hawiye, Rahanweyn, and Dir members—including those from Somaliland (which flies its own flag and seeks independence from Somalia)—to back non-Somali candidates. They supported Jewish incumbent Jacob Frey for mayor over a Somali opponent from a different clan, prioritizing clan loyalty over ethnic or religious solidarity. So yeah haha many Somalis voted for the Jew over a Muslim Somali. Go figure
The most powerful clan in USA is Jewish Supremists. Their origin, emotions and clan structure have the same roots as every other clan that immigrates to USA and pursues its own interests to the detriment of others.
Western civilization is different from the entire rest of the world due to the Catholic church deliberately destroying European clans.
From that arose the most creative civilization in world history and a large community of peoples who were able to cooperate by trusting each other. ABN
It turns out that the pipe bomber on Jan 6 was not a man, as had been assumed for more than four years. Reports over the past 48 hours claim that the pipe bomber was a Capitol policewoman by the name of Shauni Rae Kerkhoff. This comes after more than four years of not knowing who the pipe bomber was.
It appears that the FBI and Capitol Police were not interested in identifying the person who planted pipe bombs on the evening of January 5th near the RNC and DNC buildings in DC. Is this because the pipe bomber was one of them, and if it were found out that the Capitol Police were involved with the pipe bombs found on Jan 6, Americans would be outraged with the news?
Perhaps an even bigger reason to cover up the identity of the pipe bomber is that the planting of pipe bombs at the Capitol on the eve of Jan 6 was necessary to ensure the certification of the 2020 election for Joe Biden.
Chinese state media offers a rare inside look at the crackdown on scam operations that have entrapped thousands of Chinese nationals and others
“Should I feel anything?” asks the beady-eyed man, sitting in a padded cell with handcuffs around his wrists.
He’s being grilled by Chinese investigators about the time he allegedly ordered a stranger to be killed – a human offering to celebrate his sworn brotherhood with a business partner.
“Wasn’t he a living, breathing person?” an investigator asks.
“I didn’t feel much,” the man maintains.
The scene may sound like it came straight out of a crime drama. In fact, it is part of a documentary on Chinese state media – a look inside the workings of the justice system almost unheard of in a country where court proceedings are largely kept out of the public eye.
The handcuffed man answering questions is Chen Dawei, a member of the infamous Wei family, one of several powerful mafia groups that for years operated with impunity in Myanmar’s border town of Laukkaing.
His confession forms just one part of a months-long propaganda push by Chinese officials. It both warns Chinese people of South East Asia’s billion-dollar scam industry, and highlights the Chinese government’s crackdown on the men behind an industry which has trapped thousands, and stolen billions.
The message China wants to send, as one investigator puts it, is clear: “It’s to warn other people, no matter who you are, where you are, as long as you commit such heinous crimes against Chinese people, you will pay the price.”
The TOP people in the BBC, including TIM DAVIE, the BOSS, are all quitting/FIRED, because they were caught “doctoring” my very good (PERFECT!) speech of January 6th. Thank you to The Telegraph for exposing these Corrupt “Journalists.” These are very dishonest people who tried to step on the scales of a Presidential Election. On top of everything else, they are from a Foreign Country, one that many consider our Number One Ally. What a terrible thing for Democracy
MAJOR BREAKING: International actors are involved in the State Department led color revolution 🚨🚨
This is not speculation; it’s straight from a recorded call.
Ex-USAID employees describe how, before January 20, they moved internal groups off government systems and into encrypted Signal chats, then quickly linked with foreign partners and NGOs after the inauguration. This attempt at creating a color revolution isn’t new news; this part was already reported in NOTUS earlier this year.
But what’s not reported is the international aspect. One participant explicitly frames it as “a global anti-authoritarian movement,” connecting U.S. officials with “colleagues from around the world who have dealt with this directly.”
They reference coordination with Johns Hopkins, “international democracy and conflict mitigation spaces,” and efforts to mobilize across borders against what they perceive as domestic authoritarianism.
At what point does this become treason?
Hard to appreciate the scale of this effort. Every blue dot is a NGO.
In this case, the interviewer is deliberately using psycholinguistics to insinuate an insidious undertone, which Owens disambiguates deftly.
Deliberately misusing words in this fashion is a very common political and journalistic trick.
Words and psychology are always intertwined and thus words are always susceptible to being used maliciously; they can provide an appearance of plausible deniability.
In the past week or so we have seen numerous Jewish Supremists, closeted or not, employ these techniques in addition to their typical name-calling and screaming while denying the obvious.
In this context, it is worth noting that misuse of language can happen in friendly, intimate conversation between good friends nearly as often as it does in political dialog.
It is common for psycholinguistic misunderstandings to happen for completely innocent reasons, with profoundly sad effects for all parties involved, which often snowball.
FIML practice will show all practitioners how insidious the misuse or mishearing of words can be and how to prevent it.
One of the reasons I like Owens is she has a very good understanding of language and psychology and generally uses words very well, with nuance, humor and accuracy. ABN
Because the situation is considered safe and Syria needs manpower for post-war reconstruction, the German government has urged 1.3 million Syrian refugees to return. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz hopes that the majority of Syrian refugees will return to their homeland voluntarily or be deported in the near future.
“There is no longer a humanitarian reason to stay in Germany because Syria is at peace. We can also begin repatriating them (refugees),” Merz said, as quoted by The Guardian on Tuesday (November 4, 2025).
Refugees who refuse to return to Syria, Merz said, could be deported in the near future.
Trump’s “50-year mortgage at 2%” sounds like a gift to regular people.
It’s not.
It’s a trillion-dollar bailout for Wall Street dressed up as a tax cut.
Banks and hedge funds are drowning from the millions of old mortgages bought when the rates were 2-3%.
Now rates are 6-7%, so those old loans are worth only at like 50-60 cents on the dollar.
They’re sitting on $1-2 trillion in losses that would wipe out bonuses and maybe even some banks.
Trump’s plan is a magic eraser for those losses.
Every homeowner refinanced into a 50-year loan at 2% suddenly means those trash loans become gold again.
BlackRock, PIMCO, and the big banks instantly make hundreds of billions with zero work.
You pay interest for 50 years (your kids will still be paying when they’re grandparents).
2% sounds low, but factor in inflation and it’s actually negative real rate, so you lose purchasing power every year.
You can never move or change jobs easily because breaking a 50-year loan costs a fortune.
Your house doesn’t get cheaper.
Prices stay sky-high because banks can now lend huge amounts again (50 years = bigger loans). First-time buyers still get crushed.
Blackrock & wall street will undergo bailout paid by main st.
Mortgage companies will collect 50 years of servicing fees. Trump looks like a hero while delivering the biggest wealth transfer from regular Americans to billionaires in history.
Revolutions are funny things. They start out almost imperceptible. The final straw itself may be as inconsequential as a single voice in the crowd whose words unleash a tidal wave that sweeps aside the seemingly intractable old order forever.
Even as the cracks in the Eastern Bloc began to materialize in 1989, starting in June in Hungary, Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu’s Romania seemed impervious to the winds of change. They maintained a cult-like grip on power aided by the notorious and ubiquitous Securitate, the secret police.
On 21 December 1989 Ceausescu decided that the best way to quell a bubbling cauldron of unrest in Transylvania over the past several weeks was to appear, himself, with his wife Elena, above Bucharest’s Palace Square. Workers were bussed in and given red banners to wave in support of the regime. It was to be a show of force that would solidify the existing order.
After all, no one would dare challenge Ceausescu to his face.
As he confidently approached the microphone from the balcony and began mechanically repeating the tired old slogans of communism, suddenly a voice broke through with a high pitched scream, followed by an increasing din. The discordant sounds of protest rendered Ceausescu speechless and confused.
That second, when the false edifice of his rule was punctured and the impossibility of his position exposed, communist rule died in Romania.
Something like America’s ‘Ceausescu Moment’ is definitely happening.
I am not so sure the query pictured above is that ‘moment’. But at some point recently, the tide has turned, deeply and cannot be called back.
Many of us have been hoping to live during this moment, some of us for many decades.
Many smaller tides have contributed to this momentous tide — the collapse of the climate hoax, the covid hoax, the vax hoax, the woke hoax, the MAGA failure to avoid entanglement in the Gaza slaughter and more.
The mind-control machine has broken.
Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes are the immediate manifestation of the broken machine.
But many tens of millions stand with them and behind them. The lies cannot continue and many of us know this.
Time will tell how matters develop from here.
The people and their voices are always the bottom line, which even the ruling elite cannot ignore. ABN

Central Asia is an important area historically and in the present. It was the home of the ancient Scythians, one of whom became the Buddha. In recent decades it was and maybe still is, conceptually, a major part of Zbigniew Brzezinski’s ‘Grand Chessboard’. ABN
