I was curious what the 12 Indo-Pacific countries are. Here's the list: (there are actually 10, not 12)

Australia, Brunei, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam. The official Canadian government announcement about this is here.

Based on recent searches, there are unconfirmed rumors from Turkish media and social posts about UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan suffering a stroke and being hospitalized, with some claiming low survival chances. However, official UAE sources like WAM and government sites show no such statements, only his recent activities (e.g., Feb 13 phone calls). Turkish reports mention Erdogan postponing a visit due to health concerns, but details were later removed. No primary confirmation found; it appears to be speculation.

Palantir was allegedly hacked. An AI agent was used to gain super-user access and here”s what the hackers allegedly found:

Peter Thiel and Alex Karp commit mass surveillance of world leaders and titans of industry on a massive scale.

They have thousands of hours of transcribed and searchable conversations of Donald Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk.

They have backdoored the devices, cars and jets of world leaders and accumulated the biggest archive of blackmail material.

Palantir is creating nuclear and bio weapon capabilities for Ukraine and is working closely with the CIA to defeat Russia. They believe they are one year away. They plan to achieve this by keeping Russia busy with meaningless peace negotiations.

Palantir is responsible of the majority of Palestinian deaths in Gaza. They have developed the AI targeting for Israel.

Palantir is an arm of the CIA and all data from international clients is copied into a CIA spy cloud.

Palantir has become the most dangerous company in the world. If you work there you have the right to know that this is what Palentir AI is used for, without your knowledge.

The Palentir data the hackers allegedly gathered will be given to Russia and/or China. I was chosen as a trusted partner for this publication. I’m not involved in the Palentir hack and I don’t know the hackers. But I do know that the hack happened.

THANKS FOR THE MEMORY

AI companies just BROKE the global supply chain for every piece of technology you own.

And the fallout is way worse than anyone predicted...

Sony is delaying the next PlayStation to 2028 or 2029.

Nintendo is hiking the Switch 2 price mid-cycle.

Apple warned investors that iPhone margins are getting crushed.

Cisco just posted its worst share loss in 4 years.

Oppo is cutting phone shipments by 20%.

Lenovo, Dell, HP, Acer, and ASUS are all raising laptop prices 15-20%.

Samsung is now reviewing memory contracts QUARTERLY instead of annually because prices change too fast to plan.

And Elon Musk just told investors Tesla has to build its own chip factory from scratch because no supplier on the planet can keep up.

His exact words: "We've got two choices: hit the chip wall or make a fab."

All of this happened in the last 3 weeks.

Same cause. Every single time.

AI data centers are buying every memory chip on Earth.

Sounds like the fantasy of any new wildly popular, and new critical corporate resource, service ... gain a monopoly on that service. Everyone wants it, everyone with money needs it, and we in a small cartel control it. The line forms right here folks ... and extends over the horizon.

"AI data centers are buying every memory chip on Earth."

We need, I believe, to recognize that the "AI revolution" is Not about improving capability, usefulness or efficiency (that stuff is just a - substantially lying - excuse for "AI", a rhetorical means of enabling its acceptance); but instead "AI" is truly colossal and top-down strategy for coercively re-shaping human society.

"AI" is a parasitic vampire on the productive economy of the world - it is sucking-away economic functionality, distorting and disabling the world economy; "AI" is making the productive economy less profitable, less flexible, less effective, less efficient - and especially in those economic domains that are most essential to functioning and survival.

This is being done with the aim or creating the kind of centralized-elite-controlled (and-surveilled) "Davos-man" world that we see described in Agenda 2030, the Great Reset and similar.

I personally do not believe that what calls itself "AI" is capable of doing what the totalitarian world leadership intends to do with it. But I do believe that "They" can collapse the world economy in the ongoing attempt to achieve what they most desire: power.

Former Prince Andrew arrested following Epstein files revelations
Feb. 19, 2026,
By Alexander Smith and Jean-Nicholas Fievet

"Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office on Thursday, after weeks of scrutiny over his relationship with Epstein.

LONDON — Police arrested Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on Thursday following weeks of revelations over the former prince's friendship and
Officers were pictured by news photographers arriving at Andrew’s residence on what is his 66th birthday.

Thames Valley Police, which covers an area in southern England, said it had arrested a 66-year-old man on suspicion of misconduct in public office, and that its officers were searching two addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk.

It sent the statement in response to NBC News' question about Andrew's arrest. It said, "We will not be naming the arrested man, as per national guidance."

Pressure has been growing around Andrew, the brother of King Charles III and son of the late Queen Elizabeth II, over his yearslong friendship with Epstein, the late convicted sex offender and financier.

Earlier this month, Thames Valley Police said it had been working with specialists at the Crown Prosecution Service, the independent body responsible for prosecuting criminal cases in the U.K., to determine whether an investigation was warranted into Andrew."

"AI" might not do what the totalitarian world leadership tells us is intended, but in the wrong hands, it can go a long way to "managing" us, with massive (1) data collection, (2) integration of our daily lives into their data fabric, and (3) control of that data fabric, hence control of us trapped in that fabric, in line with "their" narratives.

... and yes they most desire power ... and not only can they collapse the economy, they can install monetary systems (e.g. - banks lend money into existence rather than human physical, mental, and spiritual labor bringing wealth into existence) that are guaranteed to collapse, and that provide them with unparalleled opportunities, during both the (inevitable) booms and busts, to extend their control.

The US Supreme Court has just ruled that Donald Trump's tariff actions are illegal. (I do feel I have to say that I was fully expecting this. Trump had weaponized them to function as sanctions, which was never their legally established purpose.)

Here's the CNN page: (but everyone is headlining this)

• https://edition.cnn.com/2026/02/20/p...-court-tariffs

Supreme Court rules that Trump’s sweeping emergency tariffs are illegal

The Supreme Court on Friday ruled that President Donald Trump violated federal law when he unilaterally imposed sweeping tariffs across the globe, a striking loss for the White House on an issue that has been central to the president’s foreign policy and economic agenda.

The decision is arguably the most important loss the second Trump administration has sustained at the conservative Supreme Court, which last year repeatedly sided with the president in a series of emergency rulings on immigration, the firing of the leaders of independent agencies and deep cuts to government spending.

And here's Fox News, which is far more friendly to Trump:

Trump responds to Supreme Court ruling rejecting sweeping tariffs powers: 'A disgrace'

President Donald Trump has reportedly reacted to the Supreme Court's 6-3 decision that ruled he does not have the authority to levy sweeping tariffs under a specific emergency powers law.

A source outside the Trump administration told Fox News that an aide came into the closed-door White House breakfast with governors and handed Trump a note about the Supreme Court ruling.

The source said Trump "called it a disgrace, and then he went on with the remarks."

The high court blocked Trump's tariffs levied under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act in what amounts to a major test of executive branch authority.

[Mike Gorman]

From what I understand one of the Supreme justices who supported Trump, Kavanagh said that Trump has numerous other options to impose Tariffs (he also said Tariffs are a natural measure to use to control import/export dynamics) that the toolbox is extensive, it was just the emergency powers that were questioned - just as a comment there.

Major drugmaker Bayer — which sells the controversial, glyphosate-based weed killer Roundup — donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration last year.

Bayer had never before donated to an inaugural committee.

It's worse than you think: By declaring glyphosate to be critical for national security and defense, and placing its control under the Secretary of War, Trump just unleashed actual NAZI NERVE AGENT chemical weapon on America:

Nerve agents represent the most lethal connection between phosphorus and chemical weapons. The major nerve agents -- tabun, sarin, soman, and VX nerve gas -- are all organophosphorus compounds (they contain phosphorus in their molecular structure).

These are unambiguously classified as chemical weapons under the Chemical Weapons Convention. Sarin was used in the Tokyo subway attack in 1995 and in the Syrian civil war.

Organophosphate pesticides -- including compounds chemically related to glyphosate -- were originally developed from the same research lineage as nerve agents. The German chemist Gerhard Schrader was researching organophosphate insecticides in the 1930s when he discovered tabun, the first nerve agent. This shared chemistry between pesticides and nerve agents is a historical reality.

Actual, literal Nazi nerve agents are now considered by Trump to be "healthy" for Americans and are protected as "national defense" critical resources.

Unreal. Our president is basically turning America's food supply into an edible version of gas chambers.

Major scandal in the UK: the centrist faction of the governing Labour Party (the Starmer wing) investigated journalists who were critical of them and submitted false reports to the GCHQ to malign them as Russian agents.

The Guardian is at the center because it, and its editor
@PippaCrerar
, are loyal tools of that faction of Labour.

It's long been known that among those snooped on was
@mtaibbi
and
@TheGrayzoneNews
. But nobody in the UK cared until they learned that they also snooped on corporate journalists, who are part of the London club and are supposed to be off-limits.

OK - now we are really getting down to the nitty gritty on the Labour Together scandal.
@guardian
lays out events in detail here and it is hard to see how Josh Simons survives.

But The Guardian - in the final paragraphs - is still being only half honest about its own role. Paul Holden wasn't just "approached for comment" by the paper about the Simons smears.

Political Editor
@PippaCrerar
told him they were going to publish a story the next day that the National Cyber Security Centre (part of GCHQ) was investigating the origin of documents he had supplied to the Sunday Times.

Holden was obliged to threaten legal action.
@guardian
was prepared to be part of the smear.

@obornetweets
and myself wrote about this in
@ScotNational
last September, our story based on research by the South African journalist Khadija Sharife.

Paul Holden also addressed
@guardian
's role in his piece for
@DoubleDownNews
at the same time - see below.

I note The Guardian still determinedly avoids referencing Holden's superb book "The Fraud" that contains chapter and verse on the dubious activities of Labour Together. /1
