Important Takeaways:
- Government claims fail to account for bus-sized craft and alarming hostilities. Media silence deepens as videos reveal potential threats to humanity.
- Newly surfaced videos tell a different story. From New Jersey to Egypt, these UAPs have exhibited behaviors that are anything but manmade or benign. They’ve sprayed unidentified substances into the atmosphere, raised fears of environmental contamination, and, most disturbingly, opened fire on human beings in Egypt. One clip shared on social media shows an aerial object aggressively engaging with what appears to be civilian targets—hardly the behavior of a wayward commercial drone.
- The lack of press coverage on this escalating phenomenon is as baffling as the Pentagon’s explanations. In an age where every minor political spat or celebrity mishap dominates headlines, the media’s neglect of these events raises serious questions. Are journalists complicit in downplaying this story? Or are they simply too unprepared—or perhaps unwilling—to challenge the government’s narrative?
- The FBI and Air Force’s admissions of ignorance should, at the very least, warrant investigative reporting. Instead, the public is met with a wall of silence, broken only by independent researchers and social media accounts piecing together the puzzle from leaked videos and eyewitness testimonies.
- Labeling these UAPs as drones serves multiple purposes for those in power. It downplays their potential significance, dampens public interest, and steers attention away… The people deserve to know the truth—whatever that may be.

Important Takeaways:
- On Thursday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” Belleville, NJ Mayor Michael Melham stated that the drones around the state have to be taken down and stated that there were briefings “that we’ve had Coast Guard working with our New Jersey State Police, our helicopters have seen them. We asked, well, when they go out to sea, are we going to shoot them down?” And they were told the drones wouldn’t be taken down due to fears of what might be on them.
- We were told during the briefing that these drones are hovering over critical infrastructure, and as you said in your intro, you’re talking about nuclear power plants, you’re talking about reservoirs, you’re talking about Picatinny Arsenal, Fort Dix, Trump Bedminster. … Yet, they’re telling us that there’s no credible threat. Yet, they’re also telling us they don’t want to take them out of the air. They’re also telling us they don’t want a temporary ban.”

Important Takeaways:
- A swarm of earthquakes hit a massive 150-foot-long fault line in the Midwest that scientists fear is overdue for a mega-quake.
- This little-known New Madrid sits in America’s Heartland, passing through Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky and Illinois.
- The US Geological Survey detected eight quakes from December 6 to 11.
- Missouri experienced seven that hit Howardville, Matthews, Martson Hayward and Cooter, and Ridgely, Tennessee experienced one.
- The largest quakes were a magnitude 3.0 and 2.6 that struck near Howardville, and the rest measured roughly magnitude 2.
- Any earthquake less than magnitude 2.5 generally isn’t felt, but the shaking can be detected by a seismograph.
- Scientists have warned that the fault line can generate a magnitude 7 or higher in the next 50 years.
- The chances of a quake that size is around about 40 percent, but ‘every year that goes by, the likelihood becomes greater,’ said Robbie Myers, an emergency coordinator with the Missouri Department of Safety.
- The last powerful seismic activity occurred between 1811 and 1812 when three quakes hit that were ‘estimated to be between magnitude 7 and 8,’ according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
- Though this week’s earthquake swarm is not necessarily a sign that the New Madrid fault is about to produce a larger quake, experts have said people living around it should always be prepared for a major seismic event.
- A magnitude 8 quake in this region could kill thousands, destroy bridges over the Mississippi River, buckle major highways such as Interstate 55 and cause oil and gas pipelines to break, Myers previously told DailyMail.com.

Important Takeaways:
- Britain and other members of Nato have been urged to shift to a ‘wartime mindset’ amid the ongoing threats from Russia.
- Head of the military alliance, Mark Rutte, warned that nations are not ready for the coming years – and that much higher defense spending is needed to keep the enemy at bay.
- He said more than 3% of GDP had been splurged during the Cold War, but that future spending would have to be much higher than the current target of 2%.
- ‘Russia is preparing for long-term confrontation, with Ukraine and with us,’ Rutte said in a speech in Brussels.
- ‘We are not ready for what is coming our way in four to five years,’ the Nato secretary-general said.
- He added: ‘It is time to shift to a wartime mindset and turbocharge defense production and defense spending.’

Important Takeaways:
- Army Radio military correspondent Doron Kadosh reported on air that Israel had destroyed 86% of Syria’s surface-to-air missile capability, among 500 other sites that the IDF had targeted since the fall of the Assad regime Sunday.
- Kadosh elaborated, in a post on X, that Israel had used 1800 munitions in the attack on Syrian weapons — munitions that had been intended for other purposes, but were switched to the new mission once the fall of the regime began.
- Now, he said, with a “clear axis to Iran,” Israel’s military and intelligence officials were preparing operational plans for an attack on the regime’s nuclear facilities. The decision to launch a strike would be left to elected political leaders.

Important Takeaways:
- An urgent weather warning has been issued for eight East Coast states with a bomb cyclone expected to unleash hurricane conditions in the region.
- Meteorologists predict that states from Maine to New York will see the worst impacts, with dangerous flooding and widespread power outages predicted to start on Wednesday evening.
- A bomb cyclone is a meteorological term for a storm between the tropics and polar region that rapidly strengthens over a 24-hour period, often leading to considerable damage.
- This super-charged storm will bring wind gusts of up to 60 miles per hour, as well as torrential rainfall of eight inches in places, which will be amplified by an atmospheric river stretching 2,000 miles along the coast.
- ‘The impactful nature of the storm in coastal areas of the Northeast will be like a landfilling strong tropical storm or hurricane,’ AccuWeather meteorologists stated.
- The heavily populated metro areas of Philadelphia, New York City, Boston, Providence, Rhode Island, and Hartford, Connecticut could see significant urban and small stream flooding, according to AccuWeather.
- ‘The risk for significant flooding will be further amplified across the higher elevations of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine where there is a considerable snowpack of several inches on the ground,’ AccuWeather meteorologist Jonathan Porter warned.
- ‘Damaging winds will blow down trees and power lines. Widespread power outages are expected. Travel will be difficult, especially for high profile vehicles,’ NWS officials stated.
- ‘Remain in the lower levels of your home during the windstorm, and avoid windows. Watch for falling debris and tree limbs. Use caution if you must drive.’

Important Takeaways:
- Of all the winners and losers from Syria’s sudden change of power, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stands out as among those with the most to gain.
- Erdogan’s clout over his southern neighbor has increased dramatically with the fall of his one-time friend Bashar al-Assad, bolstering his political standing at home and in the international arena.
- The question now is whether Erdogan can convert his new clout into meeting long-held policy objectives — and if the Trump administration will help or hinder him.
- Turkey has already urged disparate opposition forces to work for a reunified Syria, while Turkey-backed rebels wasted no time in pushing out Kurdish forces from two northern towns to the west of the Euphrates River.
- But that risks running into US opposition.
- Kurdish forces allied with the US played a critical role in defeating Islamic State in Syria, yet Turkey regards them as terrorists and a threat to its unity because they are affiliated with the separatist Kurdish group, the PKK, which is waging a war for autonomy in Turkey’s southeast.
- The way Trump decides to handle the PKK presence in Syria will be decisive in how his administration’s relations with Ankara evolve, according to Turkish officials familiar with Erdogan’s strategy who asked not to be named discussing sensitive security matters.
