Minneapolis ICE Shooting
An ICE officer fatally shot Renee Nicole Good, 37, in Minneapolis, during a large immigration enforcement operation with over 2,000 officers. Videos show the officer firing after trying to open Good’s car door; the SUV then crashed into parked cars.
Federal officials claim Good tried to run over officers and label her actions as "domestic terrorism." Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Governor Tim Walz dispute this, saying video doesn’t show a threat. The FBI is investigating.
The operation targets welfare fraud among Somali immigrants; about 90 charged since 2022. Walz won't seek a third term, citing strain from enforcement efforts.

Apple is rolling out Face-ID door locks and robotic smart displays. Elon Musk is quietly building the Tesla Smart Home. A.I. and robotics are driving the next wave of smart home innovation — and the window is open to invest in the companies that can define it.
One category is far bigger than most people realize: window shades. There are billions across homes, offices, and hotels — and almost all of them are still manual.
The last wave created major outcomes. Google bought Nest for $3.2 Billion. Amazon bought Ring for $1.2 Billion. Investors are now hunting for the next category leader — the one that can deliver real exit potential.
RYSE is leading this market with 10 patents, $15 million in revenue, and 200% annual growth. Their a prime acquisition target in a massive, untouched market. And RYSE is pre-IPO with a reserved Nasdaq ticker, giving investors exposure to multiple potential exit paths.
At $2.35 per share, this is your moment to get in before the next wave hits.

Russian Tanker Pursuit
The U.S. seized two Venezuelan-linked tankers, Marinera (formerly Bella 1) and Panama-flagged Sophia, holding four Venezuelan vessels in custody and crippling oil exports in the Caribbean.
Marinera was escorted by Russian navy ships during a two-week chase. The U.S. aims to control 30-50 million barrels of Venezuelan oil, about 15% of output, following a raid capturing President Maduro, which caused roughly 100 deaths. The administration announced a selective rollback of Venezuelan oil sanctions to refine and sell seized oil.
The US plans to control Venezuela’s state oil company, PdVSA, to increase production and lower global oil prices toward $50 a barrel.The U.S. maintains a global blockade on sanctioned vessels.

I talk to successful people all the time—doctors, engineers, owners of boring-but-profitable businesses.
They all make the same mistake. They hit a specific net worth, panic about the "Death Tax," and let a lawyer lock their assets into a complex trust.
Congratulations, you saved 40% when you die. But today? You have to ask a trustee for permission to buy a vacation home. You are wealth-constrained.
The fix is sitting right in front of you: Qualified Business Income (QBI).
Most high-earners ignore QBI because they think they make too much money or work in a "service" field (like medicine or consulting) that is disqualified.
They are wrong. With the new OBBBA law making QBI permanent, this is your liquidity lifeline.
This deep dive explains:
The "Active" Switch: How to turn high-tax passive income into active cash (dropping your rate from 37% to ~29%).
The Service Trap: How to legally structure your practice or firm to bypass the "SSTB" limit.
Liquidity: How to get cash out of your estate without breaking the rules.
Stop building a prison for your own money.
Institutional Home Buying Ban
President Trump announced plans to ban large corporations from buying single-family homes to boost individual homeownership and address the U.S. housing shortage.
Institutional investors currently own about 450,000 homes (3% nationwide), with higher concentrations in Sunbelt cities. The ban caused shares of Invitation Homes, American Homes 4 Rent, and Blackstone to drop 5-6%, while mortgage lenders like LoanDepot rose.
Median home prices hit $409,200 in November 2025, up over 50% since 2019, with investors often outbidding first-time buyers. The ban requires congressional approval and may exempt new home construction.
The move targets a small market share but could alter homeownership dynamics amid ongoing housing supply constraints.

In 1991, scientists discovered a medical impossibility.
They autopsied 678 nuns and found brains ravaged by Alzheimer’s—riddled with plaques and tangles. Yet, while alive, these women were sharp as tacks. No dementia. No fog.
How? They unknowingly built a "Neural Fortress."
Most people think memory loss is inevitable. It is not. You are currently losing 5% of your brain volume every decade. But strictly following the "Cognitive Reserve Protocol" can alter that trajectory.
This report reveals the specific "open skill" exercises that physically thicken your white matter , why "Type 3 Diabetes" is starving your hippocampus , and how to trigger the protein BDNF to fertilize new neurons.
Don’t wait until the fog sets in. This is the blueprint for a brain that outlasts your body.
Overhaul of U.S. Dietary Guidelines
The Trump administration's 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines overhaul federal nutrition policy, addressing chronic diseases linked to diet. Over 70% of U.S. adults are overweight or obese; nearly one-third of adolescents have prediabetes.
The guidelines recommend consuming 1.2–1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, favoring full-fat dairy and red meat over previous low-fat preferences. Emphasis is on whole, unprocessed foods, vegetables, fruits, healthy fats, and whole grains while sharply limiting refined carbs, added sugars (max 10 grams per meal), sugar-sweetened beverages, and artificial additives.
Water and unsweetened drinks are encouraged. Alcohol limits are advised but unspecified. Saturated fat intake remains capped at 10% of daily calories. Guidelines cater to all ages and promote home-cooked meals.

Hidden Plastic Clouds
Scientists measured airborne microplastics and nanoplastics in Guangzhou and Xi’an using a new semi-automated electron microscopy method detecting particles as small as 200 nanometers.
Plastic concentrations in air dust were 100 to 1,000,000 times higher than previous estimates. Researchers tracked plastic movement through air, rain, snow, and dust, finding variation mostly linked to road dust and wet deposition.
Plastic particles cluster during atmospheric transport and settle out. The study reveals a vast plastic cloud over cities, impacting climate, ecosystems, and human health, and offers a clearer understanding of the global plastic cycle.

Gut Bacteria Cuts Weight Gain
Researchers found that the gut bacterium Turicibacter reduces weight gain in mice on high-fat diets by producing fatty acids that lower ceramides, harmful fat molecules linked to diabetes and heart disease.
Turicibacter makes up about 0.1% of gut bacteria and stops growing when fat levels, especially palmitate, rise but remains alive. Mice supplemented with Turicibacter gained less weight and showed improved glucose and lipid profiles despite fatty diets.
Since high fat suppresses Turicibacter growth, ongoing supplementation may be necessary. This microbe could lead to targeted, personalized treatments for obesity and metabolic diseases, potentially safer than current drugs.
