En 2018, Washington déclenche une guerre technologique contre Pékin sur le terrain des semi-conducteurs. Pourtant, les derniers modèles d'IA chinois rivalisent aujourd'hui avec les meilleurs modèles américains. Décryptage d'une montée en puissance irrésistible.
Le 17 juillet 2026, le président chinois Xi Jinping a pris la parole lors de de la Conférence mondiale sur l'IA à Shanghai.

• Après son succès étourdissant de dimanche, l'AfD d'Alice Weidel pourrait trouver une entente avec la BSW de Sahra Wagenknecht, qui a aussi obtenu un beau succès, et constituer une majorité au Bundestag de Saxe-Anhalt. • Ce serait une alliance entre les deux populismes, celui de droite et celui de gauche. • La proximité entre les deux formations repose notamment et très fortement sur leur opposition à l'aide à l'Ukraine et au rétablissement des liens avec la Russie.

"War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives." - Major General Smedley Butler, USMC (1935)
Major General Smedley Butler spoke these words in 1935, after a career that had made him one of the most decorated Marines in American history.

I spent the past weekend as a participant in the annual Ron Paul Institute conference that takes place in the Washington area, in northern Virginia. This year the theme was "Front Row at the Revolution" and the circa 500 attendees that filled the Hilton Hotel ballroom certainly got what the gathering's theme sought to deliver.

Property rights are defined in many ways. It often happens that academics who are interested in the scope, regulation, or protection of private property rights debate endlessly at cross purposes because they do not share the same definition of property rights in the first place.
Some debaters attempt to beat their opponents by initiating a definitional game of "gotcha." So, you agree-or do not agree-with copyrights.

He who controls the weather will control the world.
Vice President Lyndon Johnson said those words in 1962 during a commencement speech at his alma mater, Southwest Texas State University. By then, the government had been tampering with the weather for at least 15 years. Assuming the intention was not malevolent, one of those experiments went awry in 1947 after the Air Force dropped 180 pounds of dry ice on a hurricane that was winding down off the coast of Florida.
The socialists didn't radicalize the Democrat Party; they simply inherited a party that had already radicalized itself.

The primaries are over, and the November general election looms.
Suddenly, the Islamo-socialist podcaster Hasan Piker-who is now infamous for blaming America for 9/11 and warning Jews that "someone's going to come around and take action, not against the state of Israel, mind you, but against American Jews"-is persona non grata on the Democratic stump.

The American people are not merely dissatisfied with Washington. They have concluded that the government itself is corrupt. A new Gallup poll found that 89% of American adults believe corruption is widespread throughout the government, the highest reading in the 20-year history of the survey. This is no longer a fringe position dismissed as a conspiracy theory.
Socialism doesn't work, the administrative state doesn't work. And last week, with the Clancy decision, we learned that feminism doesn't work.

One of the things I like to do is understand the minds of our lefty friends. If you have studied The Science, you know that socialism doesn't work; the administrative state doesn't work. And last week, with the Clancy decision, we learned that feminism doesn't work.

As the US prepares to mark 25 years since Sept. 11, 2001, Donald Trump has removed top Al Qaeda figures from the US list of designated terrorists. Among those he delisted was Abdullah Muhaysini, a Saudi cleric who recruited child fighters and teen suicide bombers to wreak havoc across Syria.
The administration of President Donald Trump has removed the names of some of the world's most notorious commanders, recruiters and financiers for the Syrian branch of Al Qaeda from its list of specially designated terrorists.

The irony here is we're being "consumed" by the process of "consuming" social media.
If we want to understand why a system generates unfavorable output, a good starting place is to identify
1) the incentives embedded by the system's design and
2) what this type of system generates by its very nature. One way to understand this is Marshall McLuhan's famous dictum, the medium is the message: the medium itself defines the message, not the content.

Reports of Russia's "Iskander-1000" are not just about a new weapon-they are the logical consequence of Washington's systematic dismantling of the arms control architecture, which has ultimately backfired against the US.
Western media headlines have announced the alleged use by Russia of what is being dubbed the "Iskander-1000," a ground-launched ballistic missile with a potential range of approximately 1,000 km (Western sources claim previous Iskander missiles had ranges of around 390 km, with the current Iskander-1000 having a range of 550 km and a potential future range of 1,000 km).

En 1975, encore sous le choc de l'embargo pétrolier arabe de 1973, le président Gerald Ford a signé la loi sur la politique énergétique et la conservation de l'énergie (Energy Policy and Conservation Act).

"Les récits soviétiques... de la guerre... indiquaient que les "cercles dirigeants" en Grande-Bretagne et aux États-Unis souhaitaient que l'Allemagne et l'Union soviétique s'épuisent "dans des combats acharnés et sanglants"...... Le report (du Débarquement) était présenté comme une simple difficulté logistique, mais aussi comme une politique délibérée consistant à laisser l'Armée rouge subir la plupart des pertes, puis à limiter l'influence soviétique d'après-guerre.

Fin septembre, le député européen Raphaël Glucksmann a annoncé sa candidature à la présidence française. Les réactions ont été mitigées. Alors que les médias grand public en France et en Allemagne ont largement salué cette initiative, les représentants des médias indépendants et alternatifs ont pour la plupart exprimé des critiques et des railleries à l'égard de la candidature de "Gluglu", comme certains l'appellent.

11 septembre : l'hypothèse explosive de la double fausse bannière
Le 11 septembre 2001 reste l'événement fondateur du XXIe siècle. La version officielle pointe exclusivement Al-Qaïda. Pourtant, de nombreuses zones d'ombre persistent sur l'effondrement des tours et l'attaque du Pentagone. Laurent Guyénot propose une lecture radicalement différente de cette tragédie qui a redéfini l'ordre mondial.

L'administration Trump fonce tout droit vers l'abîme, et il est peut-être déjà trop tard.
En apprenant la défaite dévastatrice subie par l'Union lors de la bataille de Fredericksburg en décembre 1862, Lincoln aurait déclaré : "S'il existe un endroit pire que l'enfer, c'est là que je me trouve".
Cette bataille, livrée le 13 décembre 1862, fut un désastre pour Lincoln, déjà soumis à une pression immense en raison de mauvais résultats électoraux et de l'enlisement du conflit dans l'Ouest.
