Ha estallado un corralito en Paraguay por la quiebra del banco en el que ahorraban la mitad de sus 6'5. M de habitantes.
El presidente Peña, para sorpresa de nadie, fue aupado por Trump y apoyado por Milei, Kast y Santi Abascal, pedazo de subnormal.

Assim está a capital do Paraguai - a Suíça dos Trópicos para a extrema direita brasileira - neste momento. Um banco enorme quebrou, as contas estão sem acesso e o presidente do banco central pediu demissão. Boa viagem aos que estão saindo do Brasil pra morar lá agora ✨

🚨🇵🇾 ¡PARAGUAY AL BORDE DEL ESTALLIDO! GRAVES INCIDENTES FRENTE AL CONGRESO TRAS CAERSE LA SESIÓN QUE TRATABA LA RENUNCIA DE SANTIAGO PEÑA
La crisis política y social en Paraguay sumó un nuevo capítulo explosivo. Manifestantes protagonizaron fuertes enfrentamientos con la Policía frente al Congreso Nacional, luego de que la falta de quórum hiciera fracasar la sesión que debía resolver la renuncia del presidente Santiago Peña.
La indignación crece en las calles por el escándalo de Ueno Bank, que dejó a millones de ahorristas sin acceso a su dinero. Mientras el Parlamento permanece dividido entre aceptar la renuncia o avanzar con el juicio político, los manifestantes exigen responsabilidades y respuestas urgentes. ¡La crisis paraguaya está lejos de terminar!

Kast cada día con menos aliados: Orbán pierde la presidencia en Hungría, Bolsonaro escapó de Brasil, Trump con una derrota electoral histórica, y su amigo Santiago Peña dimite hoy a la presidencia de Paraguay.
Si para el Presidente Kast este es el ejemplo regional…

The story in Paraguay is insane.
The Epstein class took over the banking and political systems and used PUBLIC MONEY to enrich themselves.
This is what’s happening EVERYWHERE. That’s why it’s being ignored. It’s all part of the plan.
UPDATE: 🇵🇾 PARAGUAY’S PRESIDENT RESIGNS IN DISGRACE AFTER “FRAUD OF THE CENTURY”
(FYI, similar conditions exist in our countries…)
Paraguay’s President, Santiago Peña, has been forced to resign in DISGRACE, after shocking details of his MANY connections to what’s being described as the "biggest FRAUD of the century” came to light.
1. Peña was a business partner of the conglomerate that owns Ueno Bank, the largest digital bank in Paraguay, until 2025…
2. Peña personally accepted two “highly irregular private loans” directly from Ueno Bank during his tenure.
3. Peña used his presidential platform to shield the bank from inspectors, aggressively dismissing financial warnings as "fear-mongering" to keep public money flowing into the fraudulent bank.
4. Shortly after becoming president, he appointed Ueno’s former chief executive to run the country’s central bank…
Think about that.
The person overseeing the bank previously ran the bank… The fox was literally guarding the henhouse (we have the same situation in the west..)
And guess who is on the hook to bail them all out? The taxpayer…
AND THATS NOT ALL
1. Under Peña, Ueno Bank started as a niche digital app and suddenly became the government's preferred bank. Funneling MASSIVE State Wealth into his friends pockets.
2. This included LOOTING PENSIONS by forcing ~$380M of workers' health and pension funds into Ueno.
3. While the government was pumping public money into Uneo, executives were quietly shoveling it out in the form of MASSIVE UNCOLLATERALISED “INSIDER LOANS”
The taxes, life savings and pensions of citizens were used as a personal slush fund, with no assets left behind to cover the bad debts.
By the time it collapsed, 25% of all the bank's deposits consisted of public funds….
Opposition lawmakers are FURIOUS, 8 bank executives have been arrested. 27 other bank officials and business associates face severe criminal charges.
Don’t forget, this could happen ANYWHERE. Our banking and market systems are corrupt and stressed. My advice? Save in physical gold and silver.

The outrage in Paraguay is massive, 60% of people have lost all their money because the National Bank collapsed due to the corrupt Right Wing Government who were robbing it.
There are even people in wheelchairs confronting riot police.
Take back Paraguay from the thieves.

David Duchovny was paid more to play Mulder in The X-Files than Gillian Anderson was to play Scully. She had to fight Fox to get the same money for the same work. Twenty years later, when Fox brought the show back, it offered her half of his pay again. "We knew what David's offer was this time around," she said, "and it was twice as much as my offer was."
Her first reaction, she told Andy Cohen: "What the f**k?" Fox gave in. "Thank God," she said.
In the video below, she and Duchovny sit side by side on Jimmy Kimmel Live and admit it wasn't always friendly. Then she tells Jonathan Ross what Fox offered her in 2016, and Andy Cohen asks for her first reaction.
In 1993 she was an unknown. Duchovny had come off a big film. She has said that made sense at the beginning.
Then they were doing the same amount of work. She asked for parity and had to fight for it. When the first X-Files movie came along in 1998, she said she would not do it without equal pay.
In 2016 the show returned. Her agent called with the offer. She pushed back again, and Fox paid them the same.
The case for Fox: he was the bigger star when the show began, and in the end it matched his money.
Same show, same work, half the offer. Twice.
Should two leads on the same show always be paid the same, or does the bigger name deserve more?
One of these every day: a star, a paycheck, and what they were really offered, in their own words.

🎥 RARE FOOTAGE: Russell Brand “apologising” (not seriously) to Andrew Sachs by singing, with Jonathan Ross joining in.
This is from the infamous 2008 Sachsgate scandal. On 18 October, during a pre-recorded episode of The Russell Brand Show on BBC Radio 2, Brand and guest host Jonathan Ross tried to phone actor Andrew Sachs (Manuel from Fawlty Towers) for an interview. When he didn’t answer, they left a series of vulgar voicemail messages on his answering machine.
Ross blurted out that Brand had “f***ed” Sachs’s granddaughter (Georgina Baillie). What followed were several more calls that were supposed to be apologies but quickly turned into more of the same crude banter.
In one of them, Brand sings a mock apology song (“I’d like to apologise for these terrible attacks, Andrew Sachs… I said some things I didn’t of oughta, like I had sex with your granddaughter. But it was consensual and she wasn’t menstrual…”) while Ross joins in from the background.
It broadcast on 18 October, with almost no reaction, just a couple of complaints. A week later the Mail on Sunday ran the story after contacting Sachs, who was unhappy (he hadn’t approved the messages being aired and said they hurt him and his family).
That coverage turned it into a major scandal with tens of thousands of complaints. The BBC apologised, Ofcom later fined the corporation, Radio 2 controller Lesley Douglas resigned, and Jonathan Ross was suspended for 12 weeks without pay. Russell Brand resigned from the BBC over it (his Radio 2 show ended).
It became one of the biggest BBC controversies of the decade. The fact they treated the “apology” as just more comedy is what made it so inflammatory at the time.

America remembered Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
We remembered all those who were victims of this abusive administration.
Trump punched down on the most vulnerable in society.
We took that to the voting booth. America won.
Accountability is on the way. Jonathan Ross, and all others: Your day is coming.

Congressional Democrats are going to haul him in for questioning over his election interference allegations, treasonous activities and shady business dealings. He’s fucked and he knows it.
I’m hoping they seize his assets, nationalize his companies and then lock him up for an indefinite period of time before denaturalizing and deporting him back to Johannesburg.

I'm confused, outraged, and upset by the lack of the world's reaction to the criminal Russian double-tap in Komyshuvakha.
Search and rescue operations have been underway for 3 days now following a Russian strike on a school. Russians launched 9 guided aerial bombs, initially targeting residents gathered to receive humanitarian aid, and then striking the first responders and police officers who arrived at the scene.
People were there to receive bread!
The death toll is currently at 40 people, with over 30 still missing, and after three days, considering the explosions were so strong that recovered bodies are actually "fragments," that means that they are likely gone too.
I can't understand why this is not news, why the f*** is this normalized???

Donald Trump brought a $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the BBC. The BBC has asked Jack Smith to testify, which he agreed to. Now, our DOJ is blocking Smith’s testimony. Why is our DOJ serving as Trump’s personal lawyer when this incident occurred back in 2024 when he was a PRIVATE citizen? This is called weaponization of the DOJ. A judge has already ruled the BBC can subpoena Don Jr, Ivanka and Jared Kushner. Trump forgot about the ‘discovery’ process, does not want this to go to court and is looking for a way out without looking suspicious. When the judge rules that Jack Smith is allowed to testify, the coward will drop the suit with a lame excuse of “the judge is biased and unfair” to him.
