- Reporter
with Israeli news outlet Maariv: "According to Israeli sources, in a
conversation with Trump, Netanyahu clarified that Israel does not
consider itself bound by the Lebanese clause in the American-Iranian
agreement. Netanyahu
told the American president that the IDF will not withdraw from
Lebanon, will remain in the positions it currently holds, and will
continue to act to thwart the threat from Hezbollah".

- Iran's President Pezeshkian via Fars News:
Recent diplomatic efforts have yielded positive results. Recent
developments have shown that no country cares more about Iran's
interests than ourselves Even if my personal opinion differs, I consider
myself obliged to follow the final decision of the system Resolution of
the Supreme National Security Council is the basis of action, and
whatever is approved and deemed appropriate by the Supreme Leader will
be mandatory for all of us. I regret the neighboring countries being
exposed to the consequences of military actions. Our operation targeted
the US bases on the soil of these countries. Issues and
misunderstandings with Gulf countries are being resolved Ties with Gulf
region countries are on path to improvement. Talks do not mean
abandoning principles. Iran won't bow to any kind of bullying or illegal
pressure. Media reports on war, negotiations do not necessarily reflect
Supreme National Security Council views.

is the TRUTH: Dangerous gain-of-function research was funded by the
U.S. government around the world, directed and approved by people like
Dr Fauci.
@DNIGabbard exposed that yesterday. Using U.S.
government data, put together and uncovered by career subject matter
experts in the Intelligence Community and other government agencies,
yesterday’s release highlighted one example of the many overseas biolabs
funded by the U.S., the research conducted there, and the significant
risks they pose to the world, especially when located in a country at
war. - Which States Are Leading America's Economy?

Around X:
- Had bullish commentary on (PWR) and (HON).
- This
is one of Tucker's most explosive interviews about Trump, Iran, and who
is actually in control of the U.S He said Trump was pressured into a
war he didn't want, knew it was a bad idea, understood it could wreck
his presidency and blow up the global economy... and did it anyway. Not
because he was fooled or misinformed, but because he couldn't stop it.
Think about what that means. Trump spent years campaigning against
forever wars. If he understood the risks of attacking Iran, hated the
idea of another Middle East disaster, and yet ended up there anyway,
then the story isn't about Trump. It's about the forces that were able
to move him so far away from his campaign promises and values. And
Tucker goes there. He talks about the donors, Netanyahu, the pressure
Trump was put under, and how he changed after the Butler shooting. He
also talks about why he believes he'll eventually be silenced. (video)
- Nvidia
found a workaround for China. With H200 exports banned, Nvidia is now
taking orders for its new Vera AI data center CPUs from Chinese
customers, with delivery as early as August 2026. The numbers: - Single
Vera chip: $20,000+. - Full rack of 256 chips: ~$10 million. - Expected
revenue by end of fiscal year: $20 billion. Vera
isn't subject to current U.S. export restrictions because it's
classified as a CPU, not a GPU. Nvidia is essentially rebuilding its
China business from scratch around a product Washington hasn't blocked
yet.
- Here’s
the new information from DNI. They admit that the US built and
fund/support, over 40 labs in Ukraine, which house dangerous pathogens,
which Russia claim are being used for bioweapon development. They are
kind of admitting Putin and Russian MIL were right, to a degree. To
me, I think this is the beginning stages of public disclosure about
Covid being a US-funded experiment, and it very well may lead back to
the labs in Ukraine. Some of these US-funded labs were studying bat
coronaviruses in Ukraine, as early as 2014 via USIAD Project PREDICT.
We have to tell the world that COVID was man-made, and we have to tell
the world who made it. I think that process is now underway. It also
tells me talks with Russia must be in a good place, because any deal
with Russia, Putin is going to address the biolabs in Ukraine, as it has
been one of Russia’s main talking points at the UN. I think this
disclosure is related to a peace deal between Russia and the US/Ukraine.

- The
most important SpaceX detail nobody is talking about: the lockup is
staggered. There is no single 180-day cliff. Insiders get to sell in
tiers, starting MUCH earlier than a standard IPO. Here’s exactly when insiders can start selling:
- SpaceX created over 4,400 millionaires today, and many of them are regular working people.
They are not executives or founders, they are welders, technicians,
machinists, and launch crew, the people who showed up every day and
built the rockets with their hands. Around 400 of them are sitting on
stakes worth over $100 million each. For context, Google's IPO created
roughly 1,000 millionaires. Facebook's created around the same. SpaceX is doing more than four times both of them in a single day. Juan Hernandez is one of them. (pic)
- Today,
I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of
past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30
countries, including Ukraine. In support of President Trump‘s Executive
Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research
around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI
will continue working with partners across the Administration to
identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what
“research” is being conducted. -@DNIGabbard. This is why they came after Tulsi so hard. (video)
- The $SPCX + $TSLA merger is going to melt people’s brains. Robotics,

inevitable.
