Rubio Convenes 60-Nation Summit To Confront Transnational Far-Left Terrorism
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has requested that senior officials from more than 60 countries convene in Washington next Thursday to discuss the alarming rise of transnational far-left terrorism, according to a Washington Post report.
The State Department confirmed the meeting in a post on X Friday afternoon titled, "Secretary of State Marco Rubio Is Setting His Sights on Antifa."

— Department of State (@StateDept) July 10, 2026The initiative is intended to expand intelligence sharing, law-enforcement cooperation and potential terrorist designations targeting militant groups with alleged ties to Antifa.
Administration officials have discussed whether foreign-terrorism links could unlock broader investigative and surveillance powers against US-based far-left revolutionaries that are a part of subversion networks.
The problem is that countries have been addressing far-left revolutionaries as a domestic threat, but in fact it's transnational.
Due to overwhelming interest, we’re expanding the Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism to additional countries who are working to combat the growing international threat of far-left violence. https://t.co/3LxNkhGY64
— Department of State (@StateDept) July 11, 2026State Department spokesman Tommy Pigott said the upcoming event is in response to the rise of the radical left. He said far-left terrorism is "an old threat re-emerging with strong transnational links and new convergences."

— Tom Valentino (@TomValentinoo) June 9, 2025"Because this threat has not been adequately addressed in the past, each engagement, designation, or security assistance program creates a compounding effect supporting countermeasures at home and abroad," Pigott said in a statement.
In November, the State Department designated four European far-left groups as foreign terrorist organizations and directed agencies to investigate networks accused of fomenting political violence. One of the militant groups in Germany is called Antifa Ost. Two more were in Greece and one in Italy.

During the Antifa roundtable at the White House last October, Seamus Bruner, Director of Research at the Government Accountability Institute, briefed the president and his cabinet on a complex network of dark-money NGOs and activist groups fueling unrest nationwide via the permanent protest-industrial complex.
"We have identified dozens of radical organizations, not just the decentralized Antifa organizations, but dozens of radical organizations that have received more than $100 million from the Riot Inc investors," Bruner told Trump.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 8, 2025Investigators have honed in on what appears to be foreign subversion networks operating in the US - one from Cuba and the other from China.
Last month, Secretary of State Marco Rubio sanctioned the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the Peoples, or ICAP, a Castro-era organization used to spread Marxist ideology abroad.
As we've pointed out before (see the report), ICAP sits at the center, functioning as a partner to NNOC. Think of NNOC as a pathway for foreign subversion operations to infiltrate US NGOs.
Take a look at NNOC's member organizations, and you might notice several socialist and communist-linked NGOs, including the Democratic Socialists of America, whose members have actively promoted "destroying America from within."

Just days ago, independent Cuban news outlet ADN Cuba revealed that a US-based Cuba solidarity coalition was giving orders to their far-left revolutionaries embedded within the US to prepare rapid-response protests at US federal buildings, military bases, recruitment centers, and ICE facilities in the event of a military confrontation between the US military and the communist regime in Havana. As we've seen before, these protests tend to turn into riots, especially at ICE facilities.

— 🇺🇸 Jason Curtis Anderson (@JCAndersonNYC) September 20, 2025Simultaneously, there has been a disturbing pattern arising across the West:
Whether it is Antifa, other far-left revolutionary movements, foreign subversion networks tied to intelligence operations from Cuba to China, or DSA figures openly calling for the destruction of the US, the common ideological thread is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. Even establishment globalist outlets such as The Atlantic have recently acknowledged the broader pattern:
More or less, the rise of the far-left revolutionary movement is driven by a shared objective: dismantling America from within and killing capitalism. The resurgence of these revolutionaries is creating a growing national-security and political problem.
President Trump's recent barrage of Truth Social posts attacking communism suggests the administration may be preparing to dramatically escalate its campaign against these revolutionary networks and what only appears to be foreign subversion networks that support them.

5 Charts To Navigate This Chaotic Market
Authored by Adam Sharp via DailyReckoning.com,
I have 5 charts for you today which put this crazy market into context and give some clarity on what might come next.
We’re at a fascinating crossroads for markets, geopolitics, and finance.
Let’s get started.
Semis Party Like It’s 1999First up, semiconductor returns. The index below includes U.S. semi stocks like Nvidia, Micron, Intel, Broadcom, Marvell, Texas Instruments, and more:
Source: Charlie Bilello
As you can see, during the dotcom bubble, semiconductor stocks soared 234% over 14 months in the period leading up to February 2000. That was the peak of the market, and tech stocks wouldn’t recover for about 15 years.
And in the past 14 months, SOX is up 237%. Reminiscent of the dotcom days.
Maybe this time is different, and yes, the stocks are more profitable today. But it’s undeniable that markets are getting bubbly. Semis are looking especially frothy. When AI spending inevitably slows down, watch out below…
+$2.99 TrillionOver the past year, America’s federal debt jumped by $2.99 trillion.
Needless to say, our current trajectory is unsustainable. We’re paying about $1.2 trillion per year just in interest on federal government debt.
This is the key reason I believe interest rates will need to go down to near zero sometime in the next few years. Even if inflation remains above target. And it’s why I still believe holding precious metal investments is key to wealth preservation and growth.
AI Infrastructure Surpasses HumansWe all know data centers are booming. But the chart below puts it all into perspective. It compares office construction (blue) to data centers (red):
Source: Zerohedge
Simply remarkable. We’re spending more on infrastructure for AI than humans.
And since 2016, spending on data centers is up more than 10x.
But all around the country, locals are pushing back against big tech. Data centers are extremely loud. They spike local electricity prices to unaffordable levels. In some cases, they pollute the water with nitrites and other chemicals.
And most importantly, our power grid is hitting its limits. We can’t build new power plants fast enough to keep up. So eventually, the data center boom will have to slow down significantly. And that will likely mark the top of this boom/bubble.
Silver vs StocksSilver has had a rough few months. After rising almost 4x in a year, it has been cut in half.
The chart below compares silver to the S&P 500. As this chart rises, silver is beating stocks. When it falls, it is losing.
Source: Tavi Costa
As you can see, even at the recent highs we didn’t get anywhere near the levels we saw in 2011, when silver outperformed stocks for an extended period.
We’ve gotten our big correction, and I believe the next 5 years will be excellent for silver. It still has a long way to go to reach 2011 levels (compared to stocks). And supply deficits today are far more extreme than they ever were back then. Solar is booming and investment demand is soaring, especially in Asia.
I remain convinced silver will find new highs over the next few years. Maybe sooner.
-$246B Gambling LossesThe USA’s gambling problem is getting worse. As a whole, Americans are on track to lose $246 billion this year.
Source: Joey Politano
As we highlighted last week, Americans invest about $600 billion in 401ks every year. That number could be $850 billion if we ever learn that gambling has horrible odds.
Look, if you can afford to gamble and enjoy it, great. But many people are trying to strike it rich. And that almost never happens.
Gambling is all around us, and we should be on guard against its pernicious effects. Saving and investing should always come first.
