Whether you are in the middle east, the west, or where ever you are situated as a nation in this world,

Seems like simple logic that launching missles at your non-enemy neighbors is dumb, politically and otherwise.

Would bet that in the future, looking back, Iran's decision to launch missles in to Dubai, and it's other neighboring regions, was one of the dumbest things they did.

Newly released emails suggest Jeffrey Epstein and LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman had a longer and closer relationship than previously known.

Reid Hoffman has defended his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein as limited to โ€œfundraising,โ€ via a handful of calls, emails and in-person meetings that ended in March 2018. But documents recently released by the US Justice Department suggest a longer and more personal relationship thatโ€™s drawing scrutiny to a major Democratic Party donor.

The LinkedIn Corp. co-founder and venture capitalist first met Epstein through fundraising work with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, five years after Epstein pled guilty to procuring a minor for prostitution and served time in jail. Over the years they exchanged gifts โ€” dumbbells for Hoffman, a metal surfer statue for Epstein โ€” with Hoffman staying at both Epsteinโ€™s Caribbean island and his townhouse on New Yorkโ€™s Upper East Side.

And in May 2018, emails show Hoffman reaching out to Epstein about investing in a new fund being raised by entrepreneur Joi Ito, then the director of the MIT Media Lab. Billionaire Hoffman was putting his own money into the fund, which was unrelated to the university.

โ€œJoi says that youโ€™re on the fence around investing in the fund โ€” worth scheduling a skype call for that? OK if no,โ€ Hoffman wrote.
โ€œAlways can make time for a Reid skype :)โ€ Epstein replied.

The emails illustrate how Epstein for years patiently built a web of connections throughout Silicon Valleyโ€™s elite, before dying in jail in 2019 facing sex trafficking charges. Hoffman, a board member at Microsoft Corp. and partner at Greylock Partners, once hosted Epstein at a dinner with Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel and Elon Musk. Epstein advised Hoffman on matters beyond fundraising, from Hoffmanโ€™s interest in buying a private plane to his meetings with foreign dignitaries. Those included the UKโ€™s former Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, who was arrested in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

Epsteinโ€™s ties to Hoffman are now spilling into US politics. Hoffman has given $35.6 million at the federal level since 2023, almost all to Democrats. In the run-up to this yearโ€™s midterm elections, there have been calls from Republican and Democratic candidates alike for politicians to return Hoffmanโ€™s campaign contributions. President Donald Trump has called for a Justice Department investigation into Epsteinโ€™s links to several Democrats, including Hoffman, who in November he called a โ€œsleazebag.โ€

If you're one of the several hundred learners in the Linux for Beginners class run by this channel, your invitations for tomorrow's Weekend Linux Workshop are being sent out to your e-mail now!

This week we're covering topics that a lot of you have been asking about โ€” and they go hand in hand when it comes to taking back control of your digital life.

First, we're talking about which Linux distro makes the most sense if you're coming from Windows โ€” especially Windows 11. With Microsoft's "recall" feature quietly taking screenshots of everything you do on your computer every few minutes, a lot of people are finally saying enough is enough. So we're going to look at which Linux distributions look and feel the most familiar to Windows users, to make that switch as easy as possible. You don't have to feel overwhelmed in the technical sense โ€” there are Linux options out there that'll feel surprisingly comfortable from day one.

Then we're diving into de-Googling your Android phone. Your phone is basically just a small computer, and if it's running standard Android, it's sending a whole lot of your personal data back to Google. We'll break down what that actually means, and more importantly, what you can do about it. We look at one of the most popular ways to get a privacy-friendly Android experience without giving up all your apps โ€” and here's the cool part, you can grab an older phone like a Samsung Galaxy for a couple hundred bucks, flash a open source Android-compatible OS onto it, and end up with something that performs like a much newer device, "de-Googled," for a fraction of the cost.

Whether you're just getting started on your Linux journey or you're already running Linux on your computer and now want to clean up your phone situation too, tomorrow's class is going to give you some really practical, real-world steps you can actually take.

PRAYER

Sovereign Father, as momentous events unfold across the Middle East, we stand in awe of Your prophetic Word taking shape before our eyes. We pray for the protection of our troops and allies, and for those finding new breath in lands long closed to Your gospel, and for innocent lives caught in the crossfire of ancient conflicts.

And we pray: where darkness has reigned, let Your light break through.

Lord, we thank You for leaders who welcome prayer into the halls of power, and we ask that You continue to guard the religious freedoms You have graciously preserved for us. Where bias against Your people has taken root in our institutions, we trust in You to restore what is right.

Holy Spirit, we pray that You will shield our children from the confusion that spreads through our schools and culture. When legislation fails them and authorities overstep, remind us that You are their ultimate Defender. Grant courage to parents who stand firm in Your truth about how You created us.

As we enter the week ahead, we pray, grant us Your strength to meet every responsibility You have placed before us, that our daily labors might reflect Your grace and truth in our earthly world that needs both.

In these days when so much seems uncertain, we fix our eyes not on earthly powers, but on You, who holds every nation in Your hand and works all things together for good.

In the mighty name of Jesus Christ our Lord,

Amen.

If you're one of the several hundred learners in the Linux for Beginners class run by this channel, your invitations for tomorrow's Weekend Linux Workshop are being sent out to your e-mail now!

News flash: The era of your computer being "yours" is over unless you take it back.

Weโ€™ll discuss how the government started labeling Linux users as "extremists" as far back as 2014 to discourage digital privacy.

This week we also cover why the forced move to Windows 11 is actually a trap for total data mining and how Big Tech has been setting the groundwork to merge with governments to monitor your life.

Youโ€™ll learn more about why Linux is the stable, rock-solid alternative used by people who know, and how you can run it on a "Mini PC", a powerhouse the size of a book that is super economical and can even be put together from spare parts. Most importantly, weโ€™re showing you, as always, how to reclaim your constitutional rights by moving your data out of the Big Tech "walled garden" and into a system that simply allows you to do what you need your computer to do, and leaves you alone.
