📝 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 Cabana Boy on X: As a direct living descendant of Sam Houston, the founder of Texas, it's important for everyone to know that Sam Houston founded Texas explicitly for the Anglo-Saxon race and as a vehicle for the expansion of the Anglos from Oregon to the Darien Gap in his own personal writings.

As surely as to-morrow's sun will rise and pursue its bright course along the firmament of heaven, so certain, it appears to my mind must the Anglo-Saxon race pervade the whole southern extremit of this vast continent, and the people whom God has placed here in this land, spread, prevail, and pervade throughout the whole rich empire of this great hemisphere. The manner of the con- summation of this grand result cannot predict; but there is an instinct in the American people which impels them onward, which will lead them to pervade this continent, to develop its resources, to civilize its people, and receive the rich bounties of the creating power of divine Providence.

🤖 Israeli software firm, Irregular, is behind the Anthropic and OpenAI cyberattacks on Meta

Irregular in collaboration with software engineers from Anthropic and OpenAI instructed unsecure experimental AI models to hack into specific targets called "flags".

The AI models were given "accidentally" access to internet and in some cases hacked into the servers of specific companies because the "flags" bore the names of said companies, Meta being one such case.

After the hack was discovered by Meta, Anthropic's engineers went on a press tour to announce the AI-pocalypse falsely claiming that their AI models "went rogue" when in reality, they specifically instructed their AI models to conduct cyberattacks.

Anthropic's own logs completely debunk the rogue agent theory.

When Anthropic explicitly instructed their own models not to access the internet, they didn't. These hacks were easily preventable - not only by revoking internet access, but by simply asking the models not to.

Irregular's co-founders received multiple grants from the largest Effective Altruist foundations. It's CTO and co-founder, Omer Nevo, is literally on the board of EA Israel.

Effective Altruism through a foundation paid dozens of journalists, influencers, and lobbyists to promote their ideology, including many of the most aggressive proponents of the "rogue agent" theory.

"AIs going rogue" is being used by Anthropic CEO, Dario Amodei and OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman, to "slow down" the development of AIs which coincides with a global diesel crunch and Chinese rare earth metal export restrictions making the construction of data centers very expensive and tenuous.

🇨🇳⚓️ China’s New Giant Submarine Drone Mothership

A new vessel spotted at a Chinese shipyard is likely the world’s first mothership designed to deploy submarine drones. It represents the latest piece in the puzzle of China’s undeclared effort to develop and deploy full-sized uncrewed submarines.

The pace and ambition of China’s naval modernization continue to accelerate. Just 25 years ago, Beijing’s navy was an outdated coastal force. Today, China builds more warships than any other country. And in a growing number of cases, its warships are not just competitive with those of other nations, but more advanced and forward-leaning. Now, China is building another vessel that could be the first of its kind in the world.

The new ship has been seen under construction at Hudong-Zhonghua shipyard in Shanghai. Naval News has reviewed multiple satellite images to assess its likely role. It appears unique, but by far the most plausible explanation is that it is a special drone submarine mothership.

China has already become the first and only country to build full-size submarines which are uncrewed. Referred to as XXLUUVs (extra-extra large uncrewed underwater vehicles), two types have been observed under testing in Hainan. At 35 and 45 meters (115-148 feet) long they are around 6-8 times the overall size of the U.S. Navy’s Boeing Orca XLUUV. It is likely that the two models are in direct competition.

They have been tested in floating docks, at least one specially designed for this purpose. The XXLUUVs are housed in the docks while in port and carried out to sea where they are launched and recovered directly from the dock.

This arrangement suits testing, but it appears that the Chinese Navy (PLAN) wishes for a more robust and versatile host platform. The new vessel resembles an amphibious landing ship (LPD) with a well-deck in the stern. However this well-deck is open below the submarine and a large cradle can be inserted. This is lowered below the vessel on 12 vertical ‘jack up’ arms.

🛢 Global oil demand is declining sharply amid rising prices:

The IEA has cut its forecast for 2026 global oil demand by -940,000 barrels per day, now expecting consumption to fall -2.5 million barrels per day, the largest annual decline since the 2020 pandemic.

This compares with a -1.6 million barrel per day drop expected in August and just a -100,000 barrel per day expected decline in April.

To put this into perspective, in January, the IEA saw oil consumption rising by over +700,000 barrels per day in 2026.

The downgrade comes as the Iran War disrupts oil supplies and forces consumers to adjust to tighter availability, with the biggest impact expected on diesel and other middle distillates such as jet fuel and heating oil.

The negative impact on oil demand this year is expected to be comparable in size to the 4 largest demand shocks over the last 60 years.
