UK Budget Backlash — Joseph Sternberg — Sternberg analyzes the public and parliamentary backlash against Chancellor Rachel Reeves' budget, which raises aggregate taxation to record peacetime levels despite pre-election assurances of fiscal restraint. Sternberg argues that these substantial tax increases combined with welfare expansion will systematically stifle economic growth, eroding business confidence and investment. Sternberg documents public perception that the Labour government deliberately misrepresented the fiscal situation regarding the alleged "black hole," violating electoral promises and generating widespread voter disaffection regarding governmental transparency and fiscal management. 1940 LONDON

In this episode, we break down the Pentagon's new policy that requires all combat roles to meet the highest male physical fitness benchmarks, with strict twice-yearly tests and uniform standards across infantry and special operations. We explore the arguments that this shift will boost combat readiness versus concerns that it will sideline many women, shrink the pool of eligible troops, and mark a major cultural turn away from diversity and inclusion toward a singular focus on peak physical performance.

The Council for the advancement of the South African Constitution (CASAC) has criticised the criteria used to select candidates for the position of National Director of Public Prosecution, saying the advisory panel tasked with selecting the next NDPP focused too much on legal practitioners handling high-profile cases, while discriminating against those in lower courts. Six candidates have now been shortlisted to move forward to the next stage of interviews. The list includes names such as Advocate Nicolette Astraid Bell, whose previous work includes her role as Acting Director of Public Prosecutions in the Western Cape and Chairperson of the Global Coalition to Fight Financial Crime, Advocate Xolisile Jennifer Khanyile. The appointment of a new NDPP comes at a crucial time for the justice system, with high expectations for the office to ensure accountability within the country's prosecution services. For a look at how the recruitment process normally looks like and how it can be improved, Jon Gericke spoke to Research and Advocacy Officer at Judges Matter, Mbekezeli Benjamin

China's AI War Planning Focuses on Deception, Raises Global Thermonuclear Risk — General Blaine Holt — General Holt examines China's PLA war planning, which prioritizes using artificial intelligence for grand deception operations. He argues that fifth-generation warfare, leveraging deepfakes and large language models, is potentially more destructive than nuclear weapons. Holt warns that autonomous AI systems adjudicating warfare decisions—analogous to WarGames—represents a probable future scenario. He assesses NATO as "slow and archaic," underscoring the urgent need for advanced indicators, warning systems, and diplomatic frameworks to manage emerging technological threats. NOVEMBER 1973

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Isaac Mangena, City Power spokesperson, about the alarming blackout at the Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital in November 2025 , a facility treating some of the country’s most vulnerable patients. The outage, triggered by an alleged R41.5-million debt owed to City Power, came just over a year after a separate June 2024 interruption caused by a cable fault. This time, however, the hospital’s backup generators failed to kick in, raising urgent questions about contingency planning, financial governance, and the operational resilience of critical health infrastructure. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

This episode explores gratitude from an entirely different angle. Not the surface-level gratitude we usually hear about, but the kind that comes from the hardest chapters of life. Kara walks you through the Hawkins Scale of Consciousness and explains how emotions carry vibrational frequencies that shape our experiences. Gratitude sits at the top of the scale, yet it is often born from the moments that break us open.Inside this episode, Kara shares the stories that changed her life. Being shut out by the cool kids in 5th grade. Divorcing in her early twenties and finding her voice. The heartbreak of miscarriage and the spiritual awakening that followed, being let go from a job she overperformed in, and how it pushed her into true alignment. And the freedom that came from coming out of the spiritual closet and releasing the fear of what people think.If you are craving a deeper understanding of why the most difficult seasons often shape the strongest versions of us, this episode will speak to your heart. Kara's stories show how gratitude can transform your vibration, expand your consciousness, and help you rise into the truest version of yourself.Explore more of Kara's resources, workshops, and intuitive tools here:karmicleader.com/resources

There's a new feature on X, and it's leading to some controversy. AP correspondent Lisa Dwyer reports.

The episode of Monday Night Therapy opens with Minnie and Fred reacting to Nebraska's demoralizing loss to Penn State and shifting attention toward rivalry week against Iowa. Minnie describes watching the game at a packed Husker bar in Scottsdale, where early optimism evaporated after Nebraska failed on a key fourth down and Penn State marched 98 yards for a touchdown. Both hosts express deep frustration with Nebraska's predictable collapse, conservative coaching, and poor line play, noting the defense was overwhelmed despite strong performances from the secondary. They discuss Penn State's emotional surge under interim coach Terry Smith and contrast it with Nebraska's lack of cohesion and confidence following Dylan Raiola's injury. While some fans walked away early, both Minnie and Fred stayed engaged—though reluctantly—to analyze what went wrong. The hosts debate whether Nebraska's youth, coaching, or physical deficits are the primary issue and lament recurring mistakes reminiscent of past regimes. Looking ahead to the Iowa game, Minnie insists Nebraska can win if players show maximum effort, while Fred remains skeptical, citing Iowa's disciplined, basic style that often punishes Nebraska's errors. They close with humor, Iowa-hate, Vegas line talk, and a plea for Nebraska to rise to the rivalry moment.

AI One, the enterprise context management platform that helps organisations give AI the business context it needs to make decisions, has announced it has raised $11 million in total funding. The round includes $7 million in Series A funding with participation from Vestigo Ventures and existing investors. AI One's platform enables large organisations to transform their operations by connecting directly to SaaS platforms like Salesforce and Workday, as well as on-premise and legacy systems, extracting context from fragmented data, and delivering measurable outcomes in weeks, not years. AI One addresses a problem that's become increasingly visible as companies try to move beyond pilots: AI models don't understand the context of the businesses they're deployed in. Despite billions spent on data infrastructure, most enterprises still operate across disconnected systems that make it nearly impossible for AI to make informed decisions. AI One tackles this with a new class of technology called Enterprise Context Management (ECM), which connects directly to existing systems to interpret how data, processes, and policies relate across the organisation. By managing context safely and consistently, the platform enables companies to automate complex workflows and decision-making without costly data migrations or replatforming. It delivers results in as little as 10 weeks and reduces operating costs by up to 80% AI One was founded in 2024 by Conor Twomey and Fergus Keenan, who spent over 15 years in enterprise data and analytics, and saw the pitfalls of large enterprises over-investing in expensive infrastructure overhauls to drive innovation. "Most companies are brute-forcing AI into workflows by endlessly rewriting generic prompts and connectors - a slow, brittle process that's impossible to scale," says Conor Twomey, Co-founder & CEO at AI One. "AI can only perform as well as the context it understands. We created AI One to give enterprises control over that context so their AI isn't guessing, it's operating with understanding." Since its inception, AI One has already delivered measurable results for its clients: A global bank cut reconciliation errors by 90% in four months, saving millions annually and reducing manual review from 400,000 cases to under 5,000. A healthcare provider reduced member onboarding time from 15 days to 3 days, accelerating revenue recognition and patient access. An insurance group improved its straight-through processing rate from 89% to 97%, shortening claims cycles and boosting customer satisfaction. "AI One is solving one of the hardest problems in enterprise AI: perception," said Mark Casady, General Partner at Vestigo Ventures. "The platform's ability to activate enterprise context without requiring data migration or replatforming is a breakthrough. It turns AI from a concept into measurable business impact in record time." AI One intends to use the funding to expand its customer base, targeting Fortune 500 businesses in financial services, energy, healthcare, insurance, and private equity, and continue to build its platform. The team has grown to 20 employees since inception with recent hires across GTM, platform, and field engineering. See more stories here.

Interview with Oliver Turner, Vice President of Corporate Development, Americas Gold & Silver Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/americas-gold-silver-tsxusa-triples-ore-production-targets-5moz-annually-8137Recording date: 18 November 2025Americas Gold & Silver is rapidly executing a growth and consolidation strategy in Idaho's historic Silver Valley, highlighted by its recent $65 million acquisition of the Crescent Mine and an oversubscribed $150 million capital raise. The company's strategic moves have attracted significant institutional interest, with ownership increasing from just 7% to over 63% as top-tier global mining institutions recognize the value proposition.The Crescent Mine acquisition represents a calculated move to utilize spare milling capacity at the flagship Galena complex. Located just 9 miles from Galena, Crescent historically produced over 25 million ounces of silver at grades averaging 900 grams per ton and can be restarted within six months. The mine's ore is metallurgically identical to Galena's tetrahedrite, enabling seamless integration into existing processing facilities. With Crescent's average grade of 655 grams per ton silver exceeding Galena's blended average of 466 grams per ton, the acquisition provides immediate high-grade feed while Galena ramps underground production.Management aims to restore Galena to historical production levels of 5+ million ounces annually potentially within 36 months, up from current levels. The operation currently utilizes only one of four available shafts and has ramped throughput from 300 tons per day to over 410 tons per day, yet still maintains spare mill capacity of 750-1,050 tons per day. Key catalysts include the paste backfill plant commissioning in Q3 2026 and formal production guidance expected in February-March.Beyond silver, Americas Gold & Silver has emerged as the largest active antimony producer in the United States, producing 450,000 pounds year-to-date. Management is pursuing development of a domestic antimony processing circuit with potential government support, addressing critical mineral security while potentially adding significant margin expansion at minimal incremental cost.

President Donald Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, requiring the DOJ to release unclassified records and declassify materials where possible within 30 days. Trump publicly celebrated the signing, calling prior criticism a “Democratic hoax” and asserting his administration has nothing to hide. Political Backfire Narrative Democrats initially demanded the release to harm Trump politically, assuming the files would implicate him. The documents expose Democratic ties to Epstein, calling it “one of the biggest political backfires in modern history.” Democratic Figures Named Mentions Bill and Hillary Clinton, alleging they risk legal exposure and have ignored subpoenas from the House Oversight Committee. Other names include Stacey Plaskett, Hakeem Jeffries, Bill Richardson, Larry Summers, George Mitchell, and others. Notes that Epstein donated 89% of his political contributions to Democratic and progressive causes between 1990 and 2018. Legal and Investigative Angle Suggests the DOJ is examining Epstein’s connections to high-profile Democrats. References subpoenas issued to the Clintons and eight other individuals. Raises the possibility of contempt charges similar to those faced by Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro for ignoring congressional subpoenas. Flight Records and Media Coverage Points to flight logs showing Bill Clinton traveled on Epstein’s plane multiple times in the early 2000s. Criticizes media and Democratic leaders for alleged hypocrisy and lack of transparency. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

A study found that alcohol raises dementia risk at every level of drinking, overturning decades of claims that moderate use protects your brain Even light drinking damages neurons, disrupts mitochondrial energy production, and accelerates brain aging, showing there is no safe dose for cognitive health Genetic data revealed that for every measurable increase in alcohol consumption, dementia risk rose by about 15%, with the danger extending across all age and ancestry groups Alcohol and linoleic acid (LA) from seed oils follow the same toxic pathway in your liver, creating harmful aldehydes that cause mitochondrial damage and fatty liver disease, both of which impair brain function Reducing or eliminating alcohol and cutting seed oils to under 5 grams per day — ideally 2 grams — support liver recovery, restore mitochondrial function, and protect long-term brain health

The Newport Fishermen’s Wives, a nonprofit organization focusing on building community and improving safety in the local fishing industry, faced a long legal battle in 2013 to ensure Newport’s Coast Guard helicopter would stay in the coastal town. Recently, the helicopter was removed from Newport and relocated to North Bend, with no public warning or preliminary risk assessments.  Its relocation is linked to the rumors of a possible new ICE facility in the coastal town, along with job postings for ICE detention officers in Newport and a federal contractor looking to lease space at the Newport Municipal Airport. At a city council meeting last Wednesday, residents raised concerns about the possible ICE facility and raised alarm about the safety of fishermen prior to crabbing season on the Oregon coast. Taunette Dixon of the Newport Fishermen’s Wives joins us to discuss the helicopter’s removal.

Fortnite's new Simpsons update reimagines the entire experience through the decades-old cartoon. You can select from Homer, Lisa, Flanders, Moe, and other playable characters, then skydive into a faithful recreation of Springfield. The detail is absurd, down to the operable trap door button in Mr. Burns' office. It feels like the culmination of Epic Games' efforts to be the black hole that pulls in every corner of mainstream pop culture. Fortnite has become so big and so appealing that it raises the uncomfortable question floating around the rise of similar Forever Games: are most people motivated to play anything else?
