Russia’s foreign minister used his address at the United Nations General Assembly to accuse Europe of blocking efforts to resolve the conflict in Ukraine.

Both Moscow and Kyiv have stepped up attacks after the deadliest summer since 2022 — the year Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine. On Saturday, Russian attacks killed four people across Ukraine, officials said, while Kyiv continued to target Russian oil refineries and industrial sites with long-range drones.

Efforts led by the U.S. have failed to produce a permanent ceasefire and peace deal, with President Trump saying on Saturday that he hoped Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy would “settle” with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Meanwhile, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused Europe of actively trying to block talks supported by the U.S. government.

EXCERPT:

Earlier this month, an Anthropic researcher issued a doomsday warning straight out of a sci-fi novel – there’s a 10 per cent chance of Artificial Intelligence could destroy humanity.

President Donald Trump has already made his thoughts on the developing technology clear, proclaiming in a post on Truth Social recently: “Whoever wins AI, wins!”

Although he was not speaking about war specifically, Trump added that he and the US are the only guardrails needed on AI – or super intelligence as he is trying to rebrand it – claiming that his administration had already stopped bad “things” from occurring.

While experts have feared the worst long before ChatGPT started a global conversation about AI, the acceleration of new technology means that it is already rapidly becoming difficult to control.

This week Australian Albanese said that an OpenAI agent had hacked into a government health website while doing research. But the impact of AI on human life goes far beyond accessing private data, and it already appears the technology is being used to help wage war.

“AI is being integrated into militaries globally at an increasingly rapid pace as many governments see AI as decisive for their military competitiveness,” Georgia Cole, research fellow in Chatham House’s International Security Programme told The Independent.

US market’s main indexes fell on Monday after President Donald Trump rejected an Iranian proposal to end the conflict, sending crude prices higher, reviving inflation concerns and pushing Treasury yields up, Reuters reported.

Nvidia offered some support to the broader market, rising 3.2% after the chipmaker authorised a $150 billion share repurchase—the largest buyback approval in its history.

Iran unveiled a peace proposal at last week’s United Nations General Assembly in New York and said it had been conveyed to the United States through Qatari mediators. Trump said on Saturday that he had rejected the offer, though he told Axios on Sunday that he expected US negotiators to continue talks this week.

Crude prices climbed 2% to around $107 a barrel. The increase also weighed on Treasuries, driving longer-dated yields to fresh multidecade highs.

“Energy has been the one consistent upward pressure on inflation, and anything that continues to put pressure on inflation is going to be something that motivates the Fed to raise rates,” Art Hogan, chief market strategist at B Riley Wealth, told Reuters.

He identifies a potential transition beyond the Netanyahu era as an opportunity to reconsider the relationship between Israeli and Palestinian societies. His central argument is that the continuation of war without a political endgame risks a state of perpetual conflict.

The Senate will vote this week on a House-passed bill to restrict the ability of members of Congress and their families to buy and sell stocks, according to two people granted anonymity to disclose unannounced scheduling.

The vote is likely to take place Wednesday, the people said, pending GOP leaders setting up the plans on the Senate floor.

The stock-trading bill passed the House earlier this year in a 232-198 vote, with only 13 Democrats in favor. Most House Democrats opposed the bill because it would not require members to sell stocks they already own and because they viewed included voter ID language as a “poison pill.”

It will need 60 votes to advance in the Senate, meaning at least seven Democrats would need to support it.

Senate Republicans had been discussing bringing up the bill as one of their final items before leaving Washington until after the midterms — something that could happen as soon as Wednesday.

EXCERPT:

BEIJING — China is embracing the idea of competition without confrontation, by invoking an academic concept.

“The Thucydides Trap can be overcome,” Chinese President Xi Jinping said on arriving at the White House to meet U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday, according to the Chinese side’s official readout.

That framing contrasts with the rhetorical question he posed at the May summit of whether the two countries could avoid the Thucydides Trap.

The Thucydides Trap, popularized by Harvard professor Graham Allison in the early 2010s, refers to how tensions between a rising and ruling power have historically often resulted in a war.

Thucydides was an Athenian general in ancient Greece. His historical record of the Peloponnesian War described how Athens’ rapid rise in power alarmed Sparta and made war between the two city-states inevitable.

Allison has met Xi and visited China multiple times, including in June 2026 for a World Economic Forum event. Allison was founding dean of Harvard’s Kennedy School, which for decades trained many of China’s government officials.

EXCERPT:

AI was a major focus as U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping met this week.

The most advanced U.S. models lead most benchmarks, but Chinese companies like DeepSeek, Z.ai and Alibaba have released new models with major performance gains in tasks such as coding.

According to usage data shared with CNBC, the global adoption of Chinese models by companies has increased substantially in 2026.

Chinese AI models have gone from a relatively small share of usage to a majority on two major developer platforms that provide gateways for companies to access models from different providers. On OpenRouter, they accounted for 57%-67% of tokens used in the week of Sept. 14, up from 6%-13% in February. On Vercel, their share rose to 55% in August from 11% in January.

OpenRouter’s data related to companies in the U.S., Europe and what it defines as the “Global South” — 82 countries across Central and South America, Africa, and Asia. Vercel did not specify its data’s geographical breakdown.

Concern is growing in Washington, where two U.S. House Committees are investigating the impact of rising adoption of Chinese models.

The U.S. has sought to preserve its AI lead by restricting Chinese AI companies from buying the most advanced chips through export controls.

Washington is concerned about them accessing Nvidia chips remotely, via overseas data centers, and gaining ground by using “distillation” where new models mimic older, more established ones.

Mamdani’s ‘Office of Worker Power’ Is as Bad as It Sounds– www.dailysignal.com
News Source
EXCERPT:

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has decided that enforcing labor law is no longer enough. City Hall now wants to get into the business of helping workers organize, too.

Earlier this month, Mamdani created the Mayor’s Office of Worker Power, which his administration describes as the first office of its kind in the country. Its mission is not merely to tell workers what the law says or where to file a complaint. City Hall says it will use its “resources and convening power” to help workers become “informed, connected, and organized.”

That sounds less like a traditional government office and more like a union organizing hub with a city seal on the door.

The concern is not that workers are organizing. They have every right to do so. The question is whether the same government helping them organize can also credibly investigate employers and enforce workplace laws involving those same disputes.

Mamdani’s executive order makes the overlap clear. The new office is supervised by the deputy mayor for economic justice. The order also directs agencies with labor-enforcement responsibilities to share information about workplace violations.

Picture a restaurant owner whose employees are in the middle of an organizing drive. One arm of City Hall is expressly charged with helping workers get “connected and organized.” Another arm of the same government may investigate that restaurant for workplace violations.

President Trump laid it all out on the table for the world leaders in New York this morning.

In no uncertain terms, he directly threatened Iran with nuclear destruction.

Still leaving room for striking a deal with the Islamic regime, he nevertheless put the world on notice that a very different kind of ‘strike’ was among his short list of options.

In lieu of a situation in which Iran is no longer a threat, President Trump is considering ‘annihilation’ as a valid course of action to deal with Iran.

He appeared to stare directly at the Iranian UN delegation — even while threatening them with a ‘quick’ destruction — right in front of the world’s leaders.

Check out this clip of that key moment:

It’s hard to emphasis a threat more than couching it in eternal terms, like pondering whether or not to “drive them into hell”.

As if to underscore the gravity of the threat, the White House Rapid Response account on X quickly shared the same clip.

It just so happens that this particular video happens to be one of the only clips of the President’s address that actually shows the Iranian delegation listening as he threatens them — just before they stormed out of the assembly:

Tensions flared on the eve of a critical week ahead for Paramount Skydance’s proposed $111-billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, amid new urgency for talks aimed at settling antitrust litigation brought by California Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta and 11 other states.

Over the weekend, opposition intensified to a proposed settlement as details trickled out, including a proposal to establish a bipartisan editorial board to monitor cable news channel CNN, one of Warner’s premier properties that Paramount Chief Executive David Ellison would control along with CBS News.

It was unclear Sunday whether a proposed settlement would require Paramount to sell off assets — something Bonta repeatedly has insisted upon. Critics of the deal urged Bonta and other state attorneys general to resist pressure to reach a settlement that would allow Ellison’s deal to move forward.

“State Attorneys General, please hang tough against the giant proposed Paramount-Warner Brothers merger,” Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) wrote on social media late Saturday.

“Paramount, run by the Ellisons, should not own both CBS and CNN. California must not cave and take a deal that leaves both under the same owner,” Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Fremont) wrote.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has displayed a pager at the UN General Assembly, invoking a deadly 2024 covert sabotage operation targeting Hezbollah in Lebanon that killed dozens and severely wounded thousands, including women and children.

Thousands of pagers carried by Hezbollah members exploded across Lebanon on September 17, 2024, followed by hundreds of weaponized walkie-talkies the next day. The attacks killed dozens and injured up to 4,000 people, including numerous civilian bystanders, healthcare workers and their families. Israel later acknowledged responsibility for the operation.

Speaking at the General Assembly on Thursday, Netanyahu held up a pager, saying: “You remember the beepers? Remember these?” He added: “Hezbollah certainly remembers them.”

Scores of delegates walked out as Netanyahu took the podium, leaving much of the hall empty. The Palestinian mission had urged other delegations to join the protest.

US ‘must choose’ whether to end war, Iran president tells Fox News

It is for the United States to choose whether to end its war in Iran as Tehran does not wish to continue fighting, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian told Fox News in an interview aired Thursday.

Pezeshkian took a defiant stand at the UN Wednesday, for which he travelled to New York, telling the world that Iran would not “bend at the knee” to Washington — even as US President Donald Trump acknowledged ongoing US-Iran talks.

“When we can resolve issues through dialog, we shouldn’t resort to killing one another. But with the instigations conducted by Israel, they have imposed this war on us,” he said in remarks translated by the broadcaster.

“But we do not wish to continue. It’s America that must choose whether it wants to end this or not.”

Pezeshkian insisted Iran was ready to strike a deal with Trump to end the conflict.

“Why is it that within two weeks after the signing of an agreement, they chose to blow it up?” he said of the collapse of a shaky ceasefire.

“If the current American government, within international legal frameworks, wishes to reach an agreement, fine. If not, before the (US midterm) elections or after the elections, what difference does it make for us?”

The Democrats’ Islamist communist candidate for Senate in swing state Michigan earlier this week snidely criticized President Donald Trump’s decision to take away White House passes from leftist propaganda outlets — MS Now, CNN, and Politico.

“May I just say, it’s nice to see MSNow and CNN covering the news,” Abdul El-Sayed, the Eddie Haskell of Muslim politicians, told reporters during a campaign stop with the Democratic Party’s failed replacement presidential candidate, Kamala Harris. “That’s what you do, it’s great.”

“You are welcome here anytime to cover news. I’m grateful that you do that. I mean, there are certain people who occupy certain offices that are too cowardly to take your questions,” the smarmy public health bureaucrat and failed former candidate for governor added in a not-so-subtle jab at the president.

He was more direct in another exchange with the media, asserting that “Trump hates the idea of democracy.”

“That’s why he denies elections and is interfering with the freedom of the press,” El-Sayed told Deadline Detroit.

That’s an interesting criticism from a guy who reportedly once urged the Muslim Brotherhood to “purge” news outlets and law enforcement in Egypt. The Trump administration has designated the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization.

The anti-immigration Alternative for Germany (AfD) won the Saxony-Anhalt state election by a wide margin but fell short of an absolute majority. Nevertheless, the party may still come to power if it can garner enough support from BSW or peel off a few MPs from rival parties. This possibility has thrust an unused and radical clause of the German constitution, federal coercion or “Bundeszwang,” to the center of a fight over how far Berlin can go if the right-wing party takes power.

The AfD took 43.8 percent of the vote in the Sept. 6 election, but the AfD remains three seats short of an absolute majority. However, Ulrich Siegmund, the AfD’s 35-year-old lead candidate, could still become minister-president. The German government has plenty of tools for dealing with Siegmund if he steps out of line.

Germany’s establishment threatens to use “federal coercion” clause

Federal coercion is one of the most radical mechanisms in the German constitution. Article 37 allows the federal government or a representative it appoints to issue binding orders to the states and their agencies. The Federal Republic of Germany has never resorted to this clause before.

Anna-Bettina Kaiser, a law professor at Humboldt University in Berlin, told Deutsche Welle the bar is extremely high.

Bibi has a message for the streams of delegates who headed for the doors before as he began speaking and those protesting out on the streets: you’re phonies and cowards, all of you. “If there are any other moral cowards that haven’t yet left this hall, please do so now, thank you very much,” he declared.

“You’re phony human rights protesters!”

Netanyahu calls out people in the streets outside the U.N. and delegates who walked out, accusing them of a double standard over Iran.

“Where were you?” the Israeli prime minister asks, pointing to Iranians killed and injured by their own government and Christians facing persecution.

“Did you organize mass rallies, hunger strikes? Did you protest outside the Iranian mission to the U.N.? Did you speak out?”

EXCERPT:

Democrats and the left have picked transgender issues as one of the hills they are willing to die on, and for those who have daughters or who participate in women’s sports themselves, it may very well have some effect on the midterm election. It seems as if biological men playing in girls’ and women’s sports is a relatively new idea. Think again. Leftists have glommed onto something that has quite a history.

On Tuesday, the conservative group Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee (CWALAC) released a compilation of numbers that claim 2,293 transgender athletes have won medals in female sports in the U.S. The group gathered data from a website called “HeCheated.” The site tracks transgender athletes in girls’ and women’s sports in both amateur and professional sports categories. The records go back to the mid-80s; however, the exact count has not been verified. But more on just how far back this has been going on in a bit.

Not only is there a physical and mental cost to girls and women being cheated by biological males, but there is also a monetary cost. Transgender athletes have competed in over 14,301 sporting events and won more than $501,498 in professional prize money. One of the prime offenders, the state of California, had roughly 611 cases where a female finished second behind a biological male. CWALAC says that number is up from 2025. CWA president Penny Nance had this to say about the data:

“It is shockingly unfair for biological women to have to compete against trans-identifying men. Our research finding that trans-identifying males have stolen over 2,293 gold medals from women in the United States is an outrage. Biological men have distinct advantages over biological women. This reality not only puts women in harm’s way, but it eliminates opportunities for biological women to earn a living and win competitions. Congress must act to protect biological women.”

Donna had reportedly qualified for assisted death on the grounds that her death was “reasonably foreseeable”.
