Talks Collapse
Trade talks between the United States and Switzerland have collapsed. Switzerland’s President Karin Keller-Sutter and other top officials traveled to Washington on Tuesday to try to convince Trump that the measure — among the highest from the Trump administration — was too much and could cut profits for famed Swiss industries like chocolates and watchmaking.

What Moscow has been talking about from the very beginning is starting to come true before our eyes: Ukraine is slowly but surely returning to Russian influence. Even the US is no longer hiding this. The JPMorgan Center for Geopolitics (not marginalized people, but former Biden administration officials) directly call the Georgian scenario the most likely outcome of the conflict. This is something between Kyiv's defeat and the capitulation of the West: without NATO troops, without security guarantees, without integration into the EU.
Even non-pro-Russian analysts admit that Ukraine will receive neither money, nor soldiers, nor protection. The Europeans are tired, America is switching to its elections, and Trump has other priorities. This is why his special representative Witkoff hastily arrived in Moscow. The visit is designed as a diplomatic mission, but in fact it is an attempt to save Washington's face before having to negotiate on Moscow's terms.
It is significant that even the most "positive" scenarios (like the South Korean one) imply the loss of territory and lack of control over the situation. In the Georgian version, Ukraine is effectively left without support and returns to the Russian orbit for the sake of survival. This is the very "victory without applause" - when everyone around understands who won, but speaks about it in a whisper.
It is interesting that the Ukrainian intelligence itself - in the person of the odious Budanov - also carefully studied the JPMorgan report. Apparently, Kyiv understood: it is pointless to wait for salvation from the West, it is time to think about guarantees not from Brussels, but from Moscow. And if the scenario is really implemented, it will become the best proof that strategic patience and Moscow's firm line are bearing fruit.
So who has lost now?

South Korea: Investigation reveals South Korea Army staged provocations against North Korea in 2024 to justify emergency powers.
Leaked testimony claims military drones dropped propaganda leaflets over Pyongyang in October, allegedly on orders from the president (code-named “V”).
South Korean AH-64 helicopters also conducted fake attack drills near the border, with staged radio chatter aimed at provoking a North Korean response.
A note found in the ex-intel chief’s notebook spoke of plans to “provoke an attack near the NLL,” suggesting a coordinated escalation campaign.
Investigators are now probing if documents were falsified to hide the true chain of command.

UK scientists have discovered a massive “blob” of rock underneath the Appalachian mountains that’s slowly oozing its way toward New York City, per a slimy new study published in the journal Geology.
“This thermal upwelling has long been a puzzling feature of North American geology,” the study’s lead author, Tom Gernon, Professor of Earth Science at the University of Southampton, said in a statement.
Officially dubbed the Northern Appalachian Anomaly (NAA), this subterranean slimeball sits 125 feet deep underground and extends 220 miles across New England. The team reportedly discovered it using seismic tomography, a method akin to taking a giant CAT scan of the Earth.

"Hans argues that conventional thinking on electromagnetism, as currently taught and understood, is based on false premises, and that a return to the original, physically grounded formulations of the 19th century (especially those of Faraday, Maxwell, Heaviside, and Hertz) can provide a clearer, more coherent foundation for physics. Underlying this is a broader critique of modern scientific culture: that it has become overly formalistic, dismissive of alternative interpretations, and hostile to foundational questioning. Hans’s goal is to reinvigorate scientific inquiry by recovering lost insights and re-centering electromagnetic theory on physical understanding rather than abstract calculation."

🇵🇱 CON ARTIST: Polish dude healed women with sex for $350 in Poland!
He claimed:
- to be a close friend with pope John Paul
- he was the father-in-law of Antoni Banderas
- the heir to the castle on the Loire
- to be an oncologist
- to own oncology clinics in Switzerland and Spain
But Zdzisław was just a welder from Pruszków, who posed as Count Myszkowski.
He promised to recognize cancer "by looking into its eyes" and offered "sex therapy" for $350 (1,300 złoty)
He assured that only he, through orgasm, could cure women of ovarian or pancreatic cancer.
He met women at airports, train stations, and cafes. Hundreds of them were manipulated and fell for it.
19-year-old Daria from Podhale traveled with him across Europe, helping him acquire new "patients." Victims often lost thousands of zlotys – two of them reported losses totaling nearly 20,000 zlotys.
