SOUTHCOM releases dramatic video showing a lethal strike on a go-fast boat in the Caribbean, killing four suspected narco-terrorists along a known trafficking route. The operation is putting cartel networks on notice as Joint Task Force Western Hemisphere ramps up its mission to disrupt trafficking across the region. “We will hunt, disrupt, and defeat these networks,” Gen. Francis L. Donovan says.

Valar has often been criticized for its fast pace. They say you can't go fast in nuclear... So I asked my friend Darren to sit down with three people who have half a century of experience in nuclear programs all over the world, and ask them a question: Are we going too fast?

U.S. SOUTHERN COMMAND SAYS THAT ON SEPTEMBER 9, UNDER THE DIRECTION OF SOUTHCOM, JOINT TASK FORCE WESTERN HEMISPHERE EXECUTED A LETHAL KINETIC STRIKE ON A GO-FAST VESSEL OPERATING ALONG ESTABLISHED NARCO-TRAFFICKING ROUTES IN THE CARIBBEAN, WITH CONFIRMED INTELLIGENCE REVEALING THE VESSEL'S ACTIVE INVOLVEMENT IN NARCO-TRAFFICKING, ADDING THAT THE OPERATION KILLED THREE 'NARCO-TERRORISTS'

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump posts this major moment when he witnessed 9/11's Ground Zero following the Islamic attack High intensity, high energy, on alert, wanting to help his country 🇺🇸 "There's never been anything like this. It's disgraceful. And I hope we attack fast. I hope we find out who it is and go fast." "I've got a hundred men working down here...I hear they're doing an amazing job, so I just want to give them some support." "I've never seen anything like this. I hope we act very quickly. I hope we find out who did it and act accordingly and quickly." This is a man who loves America and leftists hate him for it. He was always like this 🙏🏻 PATRIOT.

I’ve ridden and owned many bicycles over the years. This one is by far the best value bicycle I’ve ever had. From a cost to quality perspective, nothing beats it. Lauf Seigla Rigid Core. Less than 3 grand, wireless shifting, durable af, can legit clear mountain bike tires. It’s awesome. Best gravel machine I’ve ever had, and I’ve owned some that cost significantly more than this. Gravel bikes are some of the best “if I can only own one bike” machines. They’re fun on tarmac, have similar geometry to road bicycles so you can go fast, and can handle all types of weird road/gravel terrain comfortably. The ONLY thing I’d say about having this bicycle as your primary/only bike is that the 1x drivetrain can make you feel limited when descending on tarmac or flying down paved flat roads. Even in the highest gear my power is limited before I start spinning out. But you can solve this by throwing a bigger chainring on I guess. Bottom line is this bike fucks hard and is one of the best values on market for pre-built rides.

Last week a hacker drained $500K USDC from a Base vault, then lost most of it to MEV seconds later. Was it a costly mistake or part of the plan? Hacker Blunder or 4D Chess? ↓ We know it was a phishing attack that got the victim to sign a malicious transaction draining the vault. 16 seconds after the hacker received the funds, they used a Uniswap V4 pool with thin liquidity to swap the USDC for wrapped ETH, still on Base. During the swap, they had no slippage limit and got MEVd for over $370,000. Net net, they ended up with $129,000. The funds remain in the same Base wallet. Why would this happen? What kind of person is competent enough to hack a crypto vault but incompetent enough to lose most of it to basic MEV? On the surface, the hacker had to move quickly because Circle, the company that controls USDC, has freeze permissions. Once an address is frozen, it can’t transfer USDC. It makes sense that they would be in a hurry to get to WETH and be willing to pay whatever was required to do it fast. Now that the funds are in WETH on Base, they can’t be frozen by Circle. Base could theoretically halt the entire blockchain but can’t simply freeze a singular WETH address the way Circle can with USDC. There’s no world where Base would stop the blockchain over one relatively small drain, so the funds are effectively safe from that type of intervention. In spite of the fees, $129,000 is better than nothing. The hacker had to go fast, but with some basic slippage guidelines, they could’ve walked away with much more with essentially no additional risk. Option 1: The hacker accidentally forget to set slippage, it was karma for hacking. Option 2: This MEV attack was a sophisticated form of money laundering. What if the MEV attack was intentional? The hacker could’ve created or controlled a MEV bot beforehand and set it up to sandwich their transaction the moment it hit the liquidity pool. Instead of actually losing $370,000, transferred most of the stolen value to a second wallet through what looks onchain like an unrelated MEV extraction. Everyone thinks the hacker is an idiot. What do you think happened?
