Milei: the Argentine president is going for the Malvinas (Falklands) Maybe, in the future, historians will mark today, September 4, 2026, as the start of the Second Falkland War. Javier Milei gave a televised speech today in which he launched a renewed push for the control of the Falkland Islands – or, as they call it, the Malvinas. Milei described Britain as a country in decline, and vowed that Argentina would ‘prevail’. He also announced sanctions for companies drilling for oil in the seas around the islands. It’s not a coincidence that this comes a day after U.S. President Donald…
Sam Altman OpenAI has released a new model called GPT-6 Astra to a limited set of customers, calling it the world’s most intelligent AI system and the first of its models to trigger advanced internal safety protections because of its cyber capabilities. NBC News reports that Astra can control computer systems on its own to a degree OpenAI hasn’t shipped before, filling out spreadsheets or building whole websites without step-by-step direction from a person. It replaces GPT-5.6 Sol, and OpenAI says it beat that predecessor on ExploitGym, a cybersecurity benchmark, while using fewer output tokens. “Astra can really do anything a…
The Taiwanese cabinet on Thursday approved a supplementary defense budget that pushed total defense spending over $1 trillion in New Taiwan (NT) dollars for the first time. The supplemental budget of NT $145.7 billion was intended to fill some shortfalls in military procurement after the Taiwanese opposition cut about a third of the NT $1.25 trillion requested by the government over the next eight years. The New Taiwan dollar currently trades at around 0.0315 to the U.S. dollar, so the trillion-dollar milestone works out to $31.6 billion in U.S. dollars. This brings Taiwan’s defense spending for the year up to…
Thursday on MS NOW’s “The Weeknight,” Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) said “Democrats have a much smarter strategy on national security.” Khanna said, “I thought J.D. Vance and Donald Trump wanted to end these endless wars, and it saddens me. It actually saddens me that they have stumbled and bumbled into another endless war in the Middle East, and this with a ferocious adversary. There were people in the administration and people like Ted Cruz who didn’t know the population of Iran. They, through bluster, have gotten us into a mess. Our service members are at risk. We don’t have ammunition,…
The Supreme Court has restored the ability of political party committees to buy TV and radio ads at the cheapest possible rates — a move that is likely to aid Republicans as they battle to hold control of Congress this fall.While the ruling Friday gives all national political party organs the right to the same highly discounted rates given to candidates, the decision delivers a lopsided benefit to the GOP, since the Republican National Committee and the party’s two congressional-focused committees hold a massive financial advantage over their Democratic counterparts as the midterms near.The RNC currently has more than $130…

The Trump administration has unveiled the new CHOICE Arrangements, aimed at enabling small business owners to offer health insurance to employees at a much lower cost. The Custom Health Option and Individual Care Expense Arrangements, formerly known as Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangements (ICHRAs), were first introduced to Congress last December in a healthcare reform bill by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) aimed at codifying a 2019 Trump administration rule. The original rule change got “sidelined” due to the COVID-19 pandemic era, U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz said during a Thursday press conference in…
A poll conducted for the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) found former Republican Sen. John Sununu leading Democrat Rep. Chris Pappas by a single point in New Hampshire’s open U.S. Senate race, according to a memo released this week. The survey, conducted by GOP firm Fabrizio, Lee & Associates, put Sununu at 37 percent and Pappas at 36 percent. The one-point margin falls well within the poll’s margin of error of plus or minus four percentage points. Pollsters David Lee and Travis Tunis argued the result undercuts assumptions about the seat. “While the race is statistically tied and well within…
Yields on government bonds are around multi-decade highs as investors cast a wary eye on fiscal deficits and the renewed fighting in the Middle East A storm is gathering in bond markets across the globe as yields on government debt are in many cases near multi-decade highs.

The rising deficits, meanwhile, are colliding with diminished demand for government debt.On top of this, renewed fighting in the Middle East earlier this week pushed oil prices higher and elicited concerns of what one Wall Street analyst called an…
