In crypto chaos, Bitcoin Core developer Luke Dashjr is calling on Blockstream CEO and prominent Bitcoin developer Adam Back to resign. Israel claims it cannot protect Palestinians from settler violence due to IDF personnel shortages, while the Anti-Zionist America PAC draws new attention. Meanwhile, reporting reveals how Elon Musk’s push to boost engagement helped turn Grok into an AI porn generator, and new filings show DraftKings and FanDuel dumping millions into the 2026 midterms.

Media outlets are being accused of ignoring obvious Epstein connections amid the continued release of millions of pages of Department of Justice files, even as those records show a pro-Trump billionaire on the Gaza “Board of Peace” linked to Jeffrey Epstein through previously undisclosed communications and roles in reconstruction planning.  Trump claims ICE “feels bad” about the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti but insists federal immigration enforcement was justified, brushing off sharp criticism — including from Joe Rogan — by calling himself a “great guy” for the policy. The White House line is drawing deep skepticism as polls show broad public distrust in the administration’s handling of the Pretti shooting and the surrounding narrative.  In the tech world, Bitcoin holders are reportedly selling off en masse, while Tucker Carlson goes nuclear on the AI industry, and Trump refuses to rule out pursuing an unconstitutional third term, fueling fears about democratic erosion.

Donald Trump posts a video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes, sparking outrage as he once again refuses to rule out pursuing an unconstitutional third term.
