Africa Leads Global Output
Africa is the world’s top gold-producing region, generating 1,010 tonnes in 2023. Ghana leads the continent with 141 tonnes, followed by Mali (100 tonnes) and South Africa (99 tonnes).
This dominance reflects the continent’s vast mineral resources, though political and operational challenges continue to affect output in some areas.
China, Russia, and Australia Dominate Nationally
China remains the top national producer with 380 tonnes, followed by Russia at 330 tonnes. These two countries alone account for almost 20% of global output.
Australia follows with 284 tonnes, making it the leading Western gold producer and a cornerstone of Oceania’s 346-tonne total.
The Americas Remain Strong Contributors
North America produced 500 tonnes in 2023, driven by Canada (202 tonnes), the United States (158 tonnes), and Mexico (140 tonnes).
Central and South America added 519 tonnes, led by Peru (137 tonnes), Brazil (84 tonnes), and Colombia (66 tonnes). Combined, the Americas contribute more than one-fifth of global supply.

ZeroHedge - On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero
Woke activists have been begging for an ass kicking for at least the past decade and now they are starting to realize they just might get it. They desperately want our anger over Kirk’s death to fizzle out over time.
Kirk was not a radical in the slightest. He only spoke the facts to the best of his ability, Facts cannot be radical. The truth is never extreme. However, now that he has been killed, I suspect leftists are going to see a lot of actual “radicals” in the near future.

When asked what coming down on Russia would look like, Trump said that it would involve “hitting [Russia] very hard with sanctions to banks and having to do with oil and tariffs also.”

Back to the Atlantic hurricane season: it's been eerily quiet, with no signs of activity this week - even though this is typically the peak of the season. This is the period when tropical cyclones and hurricanes are expected to be churning in the Atlantic Basin, often threatening or making landfall in the U.S., while leftist corporate media unleashes propaganda blaming the working class and their gas stoves, diesel trucks, and meat consumption for fueling the crisis. Yet many of these climate alarmists present more taxes and banning cow farts as the solution to save the planet, yet never mention that they fly around in private jets and sail diesel-powered mega yachts.

Scholars for Truth About Genocide (STAG) condemned the inaccurate accusations of the International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) against Israel. While IAGS asserted Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, STAG explained why this is false.
“Genocide is the gravest offense known to humankind; to dilute its legal standards for ideological ends is a form of moral violence,” STAG declared.
“It dishonors the memory of past victims, misleads the public about present atrocities, and obstructs efforts to avert future ones.”

Along with the carrier deployment, the US has at least three guided missile destroyers in the Caribbean, ten F-35s, and thousands of US Marines. There are also reports of a US attack submarine operating at locations unknown off Venezuela.
Tensions are soaring after last week the US attacked an alleged drug-smuggling boat, killing all eleven on board - and reportedly with no warning or attempt to intercept it. Maduro has put his own forces on alert, particularly on the coast and in border areas, and has sent F-16s to buzz US warships, though Trump has threatened to shoot them down.
At an Oval Office press conference, Miller told reporters that when the results of the investigation are finally that, “It will stun you,” adding, “Even though D.C. had the worst crime in America–honestly measured–it dramatically understated how bad it was.”
🚨 BREAKING: In a shocking revelation, Stephen Miller uncovered a massive scandal in Washington, D.C. The Democratic-led police department has been systematically concealing crime statistics, even classifying homicides as accidents rather than murders.

AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks and Chamath Palihapitiya, both attendees of the dinner, offered an insider account of the event on the “All-In” podcast. “It started with a group that Chamath organized in Silicon Valley. They were the core nucleus, and then more and more people wanted to join,” Sacks said. “Pretty soon, the president invited the top tech leaders, and it turned into the room you saw. It’s pretty amazing—President Trump’s ability to convene all these folks. I’d say maybe half the tech industry was there by market cap.”
Palihapitiya agreed with Sacks, explaining how being in that room "felt surreal."
"You’re seeing the leaders of the most important companies in the world, all sitting together, with this sense of alignment and cooperation. That was really cool,” Palihapitiya said. “These folks don’t have to show up anywhere, but the fact that the president could convene them says a lot about him and his agenda.”
Palihapitiya said that attendees were “incredibly supportive” of Trump’s policies, which he contrasted with “the difficulties under Biden,” noting that, “Even hard-core liberals like Tim Cook and Bill Gates have now fully embraced President Trump."
"That’s a testament to his agenda,” he said.
Palihapitiya then offered a play-by-play account of Trump hosting the tech leaders inside the Roosevelt Room. “You’re seeing the most powerful people who’ve built these incredible businesses—about 30 folks, but the table only fits 15. So you’ve got Tim Cook, Sam Altman, and Satya Nadella sitting on a couch, Dylan Field and Alan Wag nearby, just chilling,” Palihapitiya recounted. “In their own worlds, they’re kings, but in the White House, they’re American citizens there to meet the president. Everyone’s egos were checked.”
“Then they had us line up single file - Sundar, Satya, Bill Gates - like we’re backstage at a Zeppelin concert,” he added.
The group’s visit to the Oval Office added a ceremonial touch.
A visit to the Oval Office added ceremony, with attendees like Oracle’s Safra Catz and her husband mingling for photos at the Resolute Desk. An impromptu moment came when Catz’s husband asked for a pen, prompting Trump to hand out challenge coins and pens. Google’s Sergey Brin sparked a policy discussion that carried into dinner, while an attendee’s request for Trump’s playlist led to Fleetwood Mac playing in the Rose Garden, as captured by AMD’s Lisa Su. The camaraderie, however, couldn’t mask the underlying tension: these leaders, once vocal critics, now appeared to prioritize access and influence over their past principles, casting doubt on whether their earlier opposition was genuine or merely posturing for public favor.
The event raised questions about the motives of tech leaders who once opposed Trump. Zuckerberg, who 
This has been followed on Friday with India confirming that it will double down on Russian oil purchases, in defiance of US tariffs and threats.
"Where do we buy our oil from, especially since it’s a very expensive commodity, we pay a very high price for it and it’s the highest import, so we’ll have to decide what suits us best," Indian Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said in an interview.
She then emphasized somewhat defiantly, "We will definitely buy it." On the same day, this development reported in Reuters will only serve to exacerbate 
"Such tariffs have already been introduced, for example, against India - our particularly privileged strategic partner, a major consumer of Russian goods, in particular, hydrocarbon raw materials," the top Russian diplomat
