For another consecutive night, crowds gathered at Tehran’s Enqelab Square expressing support for Iran’s leadership and armed forces amid escalating regional tensions. The scenes reflect how external conflict often strengthens nationalist sentiment inside targeted states.

Virginia’s Supreme Court allowed an election to proceed, money to be spent, voters to participate, and then overturned the result afterward. Whatever the legal reasoning, retroactively voiding a democratic process damages public trust in courts and elections alike.

Political scientist Yogendra Yadav warned that disputes over voter rolls, disenfranchisement claims, hate speech and institutional silence are weakening trust in India’s electoral process, arguing that democracy survives when citizens believe every vote counts equally.

Iran’s outreach to Oman, Qatar, and Turkey signals a familiar but important reality of Middle East diplomacy: regional stability depends less on public rhetoric & more on continuous backchannel communication, de-escalation efforts, & preventing local conflicts from spiraling into wider regional wars

Senior Iranian commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari says Iran’s armed forces are prepared for “any scenario” to defend country’s territorial integrity and Islamic Revolution. He made the remarks during a ceremony honoring those killed in the recent US-Israeli war.

India's market regulator alleges Rajesh Exports misrepresented about $158 billion in revenue over several years, potentially making it one of the largest corporate accounting scandals ever investigated. The company denies wrongdoing. The case now tests oversight, audits and investor trust.

International law cannot become a selective weapon used only against rivals while allies escape scrutiny. Civilian deaths, destroyed schools and children killed in war demand the same moral standard everywhere, regardless of flag, alliance or geopolitical convenience.

One of the war’s most haunting recordings shows vast crowds in Gaza driven from their homes at gunpoint, watching neighborhoods erased moments later. History will remember not only the destruction itself, but the world watching it unfold in real time.

Debate reduced to name-calling while sidestepping substance is not defense, it’s evasion. When serious allegations are waved away as hate, the goal isn’t truth but shielding power. Democracies erode not just by lies, but by refusing to confront them.

Trump saying Taiwan should “stay as it is” isn’t restraint, it’s transactional geopolitics. The message to Taipei: don’t test Beijing, move your chip industry to America, and buy protection through investment. Security doctrine reduced to supply chains and dealmaking.

Jordan Leichnitz on Danielle Smith's irresponsible push for a sovereignty question: "We have a southern neighbour who's expressed very keen interest in what's happening in Alberta ... and that has had no compunction interfering in other countries when it comes to things like elections & leadership."

Van Weel: er zit een politiek motief achter de aanslag. “Je gooit wat bij een politieke partij naar binnen, dat doe je bewust en niet omdat je toevallig een cobra in je hand hebt. Het lijkt me heel sterk dat er wat anders achter zit dan een gerichte aanval op @d66.nl

“If Trump says it, MAGA supports it.” So what’s really going on here? This is about brainwashing, mind control, psychological warfare, and demoralization, and most people have not been educated on how these systems actually work. That’s why I do this work! 📹 @hasanminhaj
