The increasingly precarious state of the AI bubble that’s been propping up Silicon Valley and the entire American economy is putting more pressure on the financial underpinnings of Hasbara, Inc.
Hasbara Ain't Cheap, Musk, Ellison, Saudis, All Tapped
The practitioners of Hasbara are desperately ratcheting up their control of American corporate and social media and are seeking Saudi help.

Turki Alashikh's RING reported the fight. No one else has confirmed or denied. Turki's been pushing this fight since July. He wants "Jack Paul" out of boxing.
Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua Is the Fight the Fans (and Jake) Deserve
The beating that Anthony Joshua could put on Jake Paul is the stuff of sadistic fantasy, mine.

Senate Dems Throw Teetering Trump a Lifeline Posted on November 12, 2025 by Nat Wilson Turner Senate Democrats threw a teetering Trump administration a lifeline by folding on the U.S. government shutdown. The move has divided the national Democratic party and taken the spotlight off a teetering Trump administration’s troubles. Eight Senators abandoned the Democratic caucus to join Republicans voting to reopen the government “in exchange for a couple of months of government funding and a vote on healthcare that they are bound to lose.”

Unbelievably, UFC’s non-stop marketing campaign of poverty promotion & “keep them hungry!” fighter pay practices has exacerbated the public relations problem with their latest gambling scandal.
TKO overreach and UFC gambling backlash
Dana White, Ultimate Whale, is who Mark Shapiro has handling PR.

Fellas, we are in the golden age of grifting. Business has never been this good for the cheaters, liars and scammers. I include the robber baron billionaire class in this as well.

Follow the Money to the Power Under the East Wing Ballroom There’s been a fair amount of MSM handwringing over Trump’s new ballroom which is being built over the rubble of the East Wing of the White House. Most of it irrelevant boo hoo about the brilliant architecture of the Roosevelt era. CNN accidentally mentions something far more important going on underground in the demolition zone: Initially a carriage entrance during the term of President Theodore Roosevelt in 1902, it became the modern East Wing as millions of tourists see it each year — or did — under his distant cousin, President Franklin Roosevelt some 40 years later. The build-out was a practical matter: With World War II raging, an emergency underground bunker had been constructed on the spot and needed the building to hide it. … The East Wing was not totally separated from more dire business. The bunker below — officially called the Presidential Emergency Operations Center — is where Vice President Dick Cheney went during the 9/11 attacks, and where Trump was taken during protests in his first term. President George W. Bush used the East Wing to practice his State of the Union address in 2004.

Coffee Break: Ice Barbie on the Bleeding Edge of Trump Era Conflict & Corruption Posted on October 29, 2025 by Nat Wilson Turner The MSM calls her ICE Barbie, but Kristi Noem, and the sprawling empire she rules as Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security is on the front lines of Trump 2.0 era conflict and corruption. I’ve been covering the action at DHS as part of my effort to parse who’s drugged, who’s delusional, and who’s disnformed in the Trump 2.0 era and also when dissecting what Matt Stoller calls “The Amway Oligarchy. And while I hate to go back to the well so soon when there are so many other topics to cover, these fools just can’t keep they names out of the papers. So let’s dive into their latest antics.

In Trump 2.0 Not All the Fights Happen Inside the Cage The AI hogs tend to get especially loud when they meet up cage side at The UFC Octagon. The word is out about the deals cut there after UFC’s Hollywood billionaire owner Ari Emanuel brought Larry Ellison’s nepo-baby son David to meet POTUS Donald Trump, not once but twice, to get his acquisition of Paramount past the president. Elon Musk attended at least one of those fight cards before Scott Bessant reportedly physically kicked Musk out of the MAGA 2.0 entourage. Violent hogs brawling in the West Wing.
