España pide un mes después a la UE el apoyo de Frontex para el triaje de los inmigrantes en Ceuta

La Comisión ofreció hace una semana la ayuda de varias agencias al Ministerio del Interior


Casi un mes ha tenido que pasar para que Fernando Grande-Marlaska se haya decidido a solicitar a la Comisión Europea el apoyo de Frontex y de Europol para las labores de triaje de los inmigrantes que permanecen en Ceuta de manera irregular.

ICE deporta a Venezuela al exmilitar Rafael Quero Silva, señalado de torturar manifestantes en las protestas de 2013


CNN Español

El Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas de Estados Unidos (ICE) informó que deportó a Venezuela a Rafael José Quero Silva, un exoficial de la Guardia Nacional Bolivariana (GNB) a quien las autoridades estadounidenses señalan de haber participado en abusos contra manifestantes durante las protestas de 2013 contra el gobierno de Nicolás Maduro.

Quero Silva fue deportado el 18 de agosto, después de que un juez emitiera una orden de deportación, según ICE. La agencia dijo que el exmilitar fue arrestado el 27 de febrero de 2025 en Miramar, Florida.

De acuerdo con reportes de medios locales y organizaciones no gubernamentales venezolanas, Quero Silva era teniente coronel y comandante del Destacamento 47 de la GNB en Barquisimeto, en el estado Lara, ubicado en el centro occidente de Venezuela, durante las protestas de 2013.

De acuerdo con ICE, “informes indican que, en 2013, Quero Silva supervisó directamente la tortura de al menos 74 manifestantes pacíficos. Mientras estuvieron bajo custodia del Destacamento 47, bajo el mando de Quero Silva, estos manifestantes políticos fueron sometidos a descargas eléctricas, fuertes golpizas con bastones y botellas de agua congeladas, amenazas de violación y otras formas de abuso físico, psicológico y sexual”.

Protracted Conflict: The deadlock in the Persian Gulf is increasingly likely to last for "months or years," rather than being resolved in days or weeks.

Flawed Market Assumptions: Financial markets are repeating the mistake made during the Russia-Ukraine outbreak by assuming economic disruption will quickly force all parties to the negotiating table to strike a deal.

No Way Out for U.S. or Iran: "The most likely scenario right now is that Trump and the U.S. administration have no other solution than continuing, and nor do Iran and the IRGC."

Safety vs. Strategic Interests: Independent commercial shipowners will not send vessels into harm's way ("I look in the mirror every morning and ask if it feels safe for my seafarers, and I say no"), whereas Gulf national oil companies view maintaining transit as an existential strategic priority regardless of cost or risk.

.. no problem with law of the jungle as long as the jungle includes our bonds!
...................
Best indicator of direction is bond prices imho. So far so good it seems, as far as I know.

This move could be mainly -not totally- to offer more long term security to USA´s oil majors, which as seen during previous months, are reluctant to invest much under current situation.

Long term security is key, imho. We know that US actions are discretionary ie the $4.xb charge for the military operation. However, going forward, the veni´s take in this bz must be reasonable otherwise l t security will not be possibly guaranteed.

Me hopes they do not by pass pdsvsa in the scheme.

The Uk has fallen.... who comes next?

https://x.com/InTheTrenchesUK/status/2092953670040101266


England is in shock.

Not the shock of surprise. The shock of recognition. That moment when we finally admit what we have been seeing for years but were too polite, too exhausted, too bullied to name.

Our capital city flies foreign flags on New Year's Eve and its mayor jokes about independence. Our Prime Minister appointed a Hamas sympathiser as his chief legal adviser and a convicted fraudster as his deputy. Our police force spent £631 million on diversity training while corruption investigations collapsed by 70% and rape gangs operated with impunity. Our Energy Secretary oversaw £44 million vanishing into fraudulent schemes. Our Chancellor pocketed £54,000 from a woman who accused him of failing 1,400 raped girls. Our Manchester Mayor covered up grooming gangs while taking UAE blood money.

This is not a government. This is a looting party with parliamentary privilege.

Let us be specific, shall we? Let us do what the BBC won't.

Andy Burnham. The "King of the North" who lost his own working class constituency because his own people saw through him. The Health Secretary who buried 1,200 deaths at Mid Staffordshire to protect institutional reputations. The man who voted for an illegal war on fabricated intelligence, then voted eighteen times against inquiries into his own crime. The Mayor who spent £27 million on consultants while children were raped in the streets he controlled. The Prime Minister who, within weeks of taking office, exchanged texts with an imposter posing as Trump's chief of staff because his operational security is a joke. Who appointed Andy Slaughter, photographed shaking hands with Hamas officials in Jerusalem, to decide which groups Britain proscribes as terrorists. Who made Louise Haigh, convicted of fraud against the police, his de facto Deputy Prime Minister. Who made Miatta Fahnbulleh, daughter of a Liberian dictator's minister, Energy Secretary after she lost £44 million to fraud. Who made John Healey, who was "not convinced" an inquiry into 1,400 raped girls in his constituency would help them, his Chancellor. Who made Bev Craig, who covered up Manchester's grooming gangs, Mayor of the city region.

This is not failure upward. This is criminality institutionalised.

And London? London has Sadiq Khan. The human rights lawyer who freed Louis Farrakhan, Louis Farrakhan, to enter Britain. Who consulted on the defence of a 9/11 conspirator. Who visited terror suspects in prison and shared platforms nine times with an imam who called women subservient and gays condemned. Who signed a letter blaming 7/7 on British foreign policy, not on the bombers. Who has presided over a 72% rise in knife crime, was officially rebuked by the statistics watchdog for lying about it, and stripped the Met of AI tools that catch corrupt officers. Who extracted £500 million from drivers through ULEZ while his own assessments admitted it had "negligible effect on air quality." Who bankrupted TfL (£12 billion in debt) and hiked our council tax by 71%. Who lit the London Eye in EU colours on New Year's Eve and "joked" about declaring independence. Who denies grooming gangs exist in his city in 2026, calling survivors "politically motivated."

Our capital is being managed by a man who thinks it is his personal city state. Our country is being run by a cabinet that reads like a criminal indictment. Our police are more concerned with pronouns than burglaries. Our borders are sieves operated by Iranian terror units. Our media, our BBC, our ITV, our Channel 4, maintain a disciplined silence while MI5 stops twenty terrorist plots in a year and says nothing.

They do not serve us. They serve each other. They serve ideologies imported from American campuses and Gulf funded think tanks. They serve the next consultancy contract, the next peerage, the next sinecure in a Brussels bureaucracy or a UN agency.

And we? We pay for it all. We pay the ULEZ charges for air quality that doesn't improve. We pay the council tax hikes for services that don't arrive. We pay the TV licence for news that isn't reported. We pay for the diversity officers while our daughters are raped and our police are overwhelmed and our borders are crossed by people who hate us.

And where do these operatives report? To 16 Princes Gate, Knightsbridge. The Iranian Embassy. A Grade II listed building overlooking Hyde Park in London's most expensive postcode. The IRGC's London headquarters operates in plain sight, untouched, unraided, unclosed. We proscribed the group. We declared them terrorists. We gave ourselves the legal power to act. And then we did nothing. The Union Jack flies at half mast for dead monarchs while the flag of the Islamic Republic flies at full mast in our capital, directing operations against our own people. The building should be shuttered. The diplomats expelled. The networks dismantled. Instead, it remains open for business. A terror hub with a SW1A postcode. This is not diplomacy. This is surrender wearing a tie.

The Iranians know it. The IRGC runs smuggling routes across our Channel with impunity from their Knightsbridge embassy. They send operatives daily via small boats while our navy is deployed to diversity workshops. Trump kills IRGC operatives on Iranian soil. Burnham lets them walk free in London. That is the difference between a leader and a placeholder. Between a nation that survives and one that submits.

This is not incompetence. Incompetence is random. This is systematic. This is the deliberate dismantling of a nation by people who view its history as shameful, its people as obstacles, and its institutions as resources to be strip mined for their own advancement.

We have been told this is diversity. This is inclusion. This is progress.

It is not. It is conquest by administrative procedure. It is the replacement of competence with credentials, of justice with ideology, of truth with narrative.

The game is up. The receipts are filed. The pattern is proven.

England will not save itself. Either we do it, or it dies. Decide.

🇻🇪 Washington Is Making Venezuela Pay for Its Own Occupation — 32% of Oil Revenue

The U.S. invasion has turned Venezuela’s oil industry into a revenue stream for Washington. Economist Francisco Rodríguez says the Trump administration has charged Venezuela $4.7 billion, or 32% of its oil exports this year, to cover the cost of invading the country.

That money is taken before it reaches Venezuelan state accounts, even as Venezuela faces the enormous task of rebuilding after devastating earthquakes.

According to Mundo UR, Luigi Pisella, a member of Venezuela’s public-assets commission, said the country generated roughly $14.7 billion in gross oil revenue during the first half of 2026, but only about $7 billion will ultimately reach the state.

He said the remainder was absorbed through Chevron’s debt recovery, production and operating costs, and exchange-related deductions under the U.S.-managed oil arrangement.

Pisella said the Central Bank placed $6.7 billion into the foreign-exchange market during the first half, more than double the $3 billion supplied during all of the previous year. The largest monthly intervention, $1.7 billion, came in June and helped narrow the exchange-rate gap by increasing dollar supply.

CEPR economist Francisco Rodríguez underscored the scale by comparing Washington’s charge with Germany’s post-World War I reparations. Those payments, remembered as a punishing burden on the German economy, consumed the equivalent of 13% of Germany’s total exports between 1924 and 1931. Washington is now taking 32% of Venezuela’s oil-export revenue.

Some of you have asked about the fact that stablecoins are tied to the dollar so how would Trump and WLF make money if the dollar was weakened?

Trump and World Liberty Financial are not making money because USD1 goes up, they are making money because you have to go through them.

USD1 is backed by Treasury bills. World Liberty Financial holds those T-bills as reserves. They earn the yield on every dollar deposited, over 4% right now.

So, someone gives them a dollar, they buy a T-bill, they keep the interest. Billions in free income. It is a private money market fund disguised as a currency...and the Trump family owns it.

BREAKING: U.S. Patriot interceptor stockpiles in Europe are at ‘beyond critical’ levels due to the Iran war, according to AP

A senior U.S. official said that in the event of a Russian ballistic missile attack on a military headquarters or power plant for example, NATO would be in a similar position to Ukraine and be forced ‘to take punch after punch in the mouth’.

In Europe, the American military ‘definitely’ does not have enough Patriots to stop any sustained ballistic missile attack and would have ‘very limited’ capability to defend against a single ballistic missile strike or a stray Russian missile that goes off course, the U.S. official said to the Associated Press.

Los republicanos están furiosos porque Trump reavivó la polémica arancelaria justo a tiempo para las elecciones intermedias

CNN

Los republicanos del Congreso se alegraron enormemente al ver cómo los controvertidos aranceles del presidente Donald Trump prácticamente desaparecían de los titulares a medida que se acercaban las elecciones de mitad de mandato. Ahora, a tan solo 10 semanas de las elecciones, la decisión de Trump de volver a ponerlos en el centro del debate ha enfurecido a su partido.

En cuestión de días, el presidente no solo desató una guerra comercial con Canadá, sino que también anunció la reducción de los aranceles a la carne de res importada: un doble golpe económico que tendrá efectos particularmente agudos en una serie de estados cruciales para obtener el control del Congreso.

Los republicanos, que ya luchan por contrarrestar la preocupación generalizada de los votantes por el costo de vida, le están pidiendo públicamente a Trump que abandone su postura intransigente contra Canadá. Además, legisladores del Medio Oeste y del Sur se están distanciando del plan para reducir los aranceles a la carne de res importada, advirtiendo que cualquier avance, por breve que sea, en la reducción de los precios de este alimento básico quedará eclipsado por el perjuicio que causa a los ganaderos estadounidenses.

“No hay ningún republicano en las boletas electorales que diga que cree que esto es una buena idea”, dijo Doug Heye, estratega republicano de larga trayectoria. “Las cosas están demasiado caras y es difícil ver cómo esta [guerra comercial] podría beneficiar a algún republicano”.

Desde entonces, más de una docena de legisladores republicanos han criticado las medidas económicas, incluidos firmes aliados de Trump que manifestaron abiertamente su frustración por las repercusiones en sus estados de origen.

El senador John Barrasso, el segundo republicano de mayor rango en la cámara, suplicó a la administración que implementara políticas que facilitaran, en lugar de dificultar, que los ganaderos de Wyoming alimentaran a Estados Unidos. El senador de Arkansas Tom Cotton calificó el plan de importación de carne de res como “desacertado” e instó a Trump a reconsiderarlo. La senadora de Nebraska Deb Fischer fue más directa: “Estoy sumamente decepcionada por esta decisión”, escribió en X.

A los republicanos del puñado de estados del norte que podrían inclinar la balanza del Congreso en noviembre los tomó por sorpresa el fracaso de las negociaciones entre la Casa Blanca y Canadá. En consecuencia, han presionado a Trump para que ponga fin a una guerra comercial que podría encarecer una amplia gama de productos.

“Imponer nuevos aranceles a Canadá es un error”, declaró la senadora de Maine Susan Collins, quien se encuentra en una reñida contienda para conservar su escaño. “Realmente deseo que volvamos a la relación amistosa y económicamente beneficiosa que mantenemos con nuestros vecinos canadienses”.

El coro de reproches puso de manifiesto, una vez más, el deterioro de la relación entre Trump y los legisladores republicanos, cuyo destino determinará la trayectoria de sus últimos años en el cargo.

Trump se ha resistido a modificar sus prioridades para impulsar a los legisladores republicanos de cara a noviembre y, en cambio, les dedicó los últimos meses a sus proyectos de construcción favoritos, a librar una guerra impopular en Medio Oriente y a consolidar su agresivo régimen arancelario. Los candidatos republicanos, a su vez, están cada vez más preocupados de que el lastre causado por la caída en picada de los índices de aprobación de Trump les cueste el control de la Cámara de Representantes e incluso, posiblemente, del Senado.

“La forma improvisada e inconsistente en que se han aplicado estos aranceles ha generado un caos innecesario”, declaró Jason Roe, estratega del Partido Republicano de Michigan. “Buscar conflictos con nuestros principales socios comerciales y aliados no resulta nada útil”.

Bill Gates proposes major limits on AI development

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates argued on Wednesday that artificial intelligence needs significant limits or else the harm to humans will outweigh any potential good.

“AI will either be the greatest equalizer ever invented, or the worst source of injustice,” he said in a 6,000-word essay, entitled “The turbulent AI era is here. The choices we make now are critical.”

Gates isn’t the first tech leader to raise concerns about rapid advancements in AI. But his essay adds to growing worries about the actions of some AI models and potential job losses, even as the AI companies and Wall Street press full speed ahead on the technology.

Gates became one of the richest people on the planet as a key player during last century’s personal computer revolution. However, he wrote that he believes the next technology revolution – AI – will be far more disruptive to society.

“Even under the best circumstances, the transition to this new AI era will be one of the most turbulent times in human history,” he said, adding that “I don’t see evidence that leaders, experts, and communities are confronting the challenges adequately. There is no plan to ease the entry into the AI era.”

AI can provide great benefits in field like agriculture and medicine, he argued, such as breakthroughs in preventing and treating diseases.

But he also noted that the transition carries big risks, like widespread unemployment, harming the educational and social development of children, or making it easier for criminals and bad actors – or AI itself – to cause deliberate harm.

“As the models become more powerful, they could begin to act against our interests and we could lose control,” he warned.

These significant risks must be controlled quickly, Gates said.

“If someone had a credible plan for slowing down AI advances globally, I would likely support it,” he wrote. “However, I don’t think that’s going to happen. The geopolitical and economic incentives are pushing too hard to go full speed ahead.”

In an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper that will air on Wednesday evening, Gates said AI models have gotten dramatically more powerful at a rate faster than he expected.

“They’re now capable of causing cyberattack risk, bioterrorism risk, psychosocial risk,” he said. “I have to say I’m kind of shocked that the exact criteria that we review these models with, and the actions we take to minimize the harms, are really completely missing.”

In his essay, Gates proposed taxing AI or robots the way you would pay a human employee’s payroll tax in order to slow the shift away from using human labor. He also wants to set aside some work to be done by humans only.

“My message to leaders is: You have a chance to act now, before unemployment rises sharply, communities are hurting, and public trust has eroded,” he said. “You can make sure AI benefits everyone. And you can work with other governments to meet this national and global challenge.”
