BBC Slips In 'Mistranslated' Propaganda To Radically Alter Hegseth Speech On Iran The BBC has been caught yet again manipulating comments from the Trump administration to radically alter their meaning. During a March 2 press conference about the war in Iran, US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said that the United States is bringing death to the same regime that chanted "death to America." BBC Persia, however, substituted the word 'people' for 'regime' - fundamentally changing Hegseth's meaning to sound like America was targeting all Iranians vs. the regime . "It turns out the regime who chanted 'death to America and death to Israel was gifted death from America and death from Israel," is what Hegseth actually said. The BBC translated the word "regime" as "mardom," the Persian word for "people." It later issued a correction. The BBC "mistakenly" altered a speech by Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth on the war in Iran, making him appear to say the United States was targeting the Iranian "people". This comes only a handful of months since they did the same to President Trump. Defund the BBC! pic.twitter.com/iezrIh5vFX — Tommy Robinson 🇬🇧 (@TRobinsonNewEra) March 7, 2026 While we're sure Israel and America will kill plenty of non-regime Iranians by the time this is done, mainstream media like the BBC isn't doing anything for its reputation by shaping narratives . The Trump administration has argued that that Tehran's leadership, not regular Iranians, pose a direct threat to American national security because they've been chanting "death to America" (for the past 50 years), which justified Trump reneging on his repeated campaign promises not to start new wars. The error drew condemnation from Iranians online , who accused the BBC of conflating ordinary civilians with the brutality of the regime and altering the meaning of Mr Hegseth’s speech. Others disagreed, saying the translation was acceptable. The US president has called on the Iranian people to rise up and overthrow the...

TMC The Metals Company (TMC 3.69%) has emerged as a hot play amid rapidly shifting dynamics in the minerals market. The company specializes in the collection of deep-sea nodules that contain a variety of valuable minerals including cobalt, nickel, copper, and manganese. Some investors are also betting that the company could become a player in the rare-earth minerals space. TMC's business is still in a pre-revenue state, and the company went public through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) in September 2021. Across its history as a publicly traded company, TMC has never paid a dividend. Could the stock set investors up for life if the company starts returning cash directly to shareholders with regular dividend payments? TMC is probably a long way away from paying a dividend With relations with China heading in an increasingly adversarial direction in recent years, securing access to critical minerals through other channels has become increasingly important for the U.S. and its allies. China accounts for a huge chunk of of global mineral excavation and refining, and its share of the rare-earth minerals market is even more pronounced -- coming in between 60% and 70% of mining extraction and over 90% of refining. Amid this backdrop, TMC's timelines for achieving the necessary regulatory approvals and launching and scaling its business have probably been accelerated. On the other hand, it's important to keep in mind that the business has yet to generate any revenue -- let alone any profit or free cash flow.

Berkshire Hathaway Inc has a new CEO, and Wall Street is watching his every move. Here’s what Greg Abel‘s early commentary suggests about the fate of Warren Buffett‘s top 10 holdings. Berkshire Hathaway's Top 10 Stock Holdings In the fourth quarter, Berkshire under then-CEO Buffett took a new position in the New York Times and adjusted positions in several of the company's top holdings. At the end of 2025, these were the top 10 stock holdings in the conglomerate’s investment portfolio: Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL): $61.96 billion, 23% of fund American Express (NYSE:AXP): $56.09 billion, 21% of fund Bank of America (NYSE:BAC): $28.45 billion, 10% of fund Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO): $27.96 billion, 10% of fund Chevron Corporation (NYSE:CVX): $19.84 billion, 7.2% of fund Moody's Corporation (NYSE:MCO): $12.60 billion, 4.6% of fund Occidental Petroleum (NYSE:OXY): $10.89 billion, 4.0% of fund Chubb (NYSE:CB): $10.69 billion, 3.9% of fund Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ:KHC): $7.90 billion, 2.9% of fund Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL): $5.59 billion, 2.0% of fund Don't Miss: Fast Company Calls It a ‘Groundbreaking Step for the Creator Economy' — Investors Can Still Get In at $0.85/Share Put professional stock research to work in a single ETF — explore Motley Fool Asset Management's factor-based funds. Of these, positions in Apple and Bank of America saw declines in the October-December period. Those in Chevron and Chubb increased. Following Buffett’s exit as CEO at the end of 2025, moves made by Abel as well as his commentary could contain signals on how the holdings may evolve. Greg Abel's Early Moves & Comments One of Abel’s early moves was to sell Berkshire’s Kraft Heinz position. In his first shareholder letter, the new CEO added criticism on the fund's stake in the consumer products company. "Our investment in Kraft Heinz has been disappointing," Abel said. "Even after considering the preferred equity component in our original Heinz investment, our return has been well short of adequate." When the...

Alvarezsaurids were mostly small-bodied theropods that paleontologists originally misinterpreted as early flightless birds, only to later recognize them as an ant-eating lineage of non-avian dinosaurs. For years, we suspected that Alvarezsaurids underwent a rare process of evolutionary miniaturization directly coupled to a diet of social insects like ants and termites. It was a tidy hypothesis: They got smaller to become more efficient at catching ants. Now, a recently discovered fossil of one of the smallest alvarezsaurids ever found suggests that the evolution of miniature dinosaurs likely wasn’t as neat and linear as we thought. This new species, called Alnashetri cerropoliciensis , probably did not feed on ants at all. “It was a pursuit predator actively hunting insects and small mammals,” said Peter Makovicky, a paleontologist at the University of Minnesota. The oddball Alverezsaurids, found mostly in the Late Cretaceous rocks of Asia and South America, had short forelimbs tipped with a single oversized thumb claw built for digging. They also had minute teeth and sensory adaptations akin to those in modern nocturnal birds—everything necessary to work on termite mounds. “The explanation of their small body size has been tied to this specialization,” Makovicky explained.

Introduction Have you ever heard of the “hyper-financialization” of everyday life? That’s basically the description of a world where we can literally bet on anything, whenever we want. I’m talking about prediction markets, which were just covered by The Wall Street Journal . It brought up how even fraternity brothers are going wild on the most ridiculous bets, including betting thousands of dollars on whether Jeff Bezos would attend the Super Bowl: The Wall Street Journal Personally, I believe that a big part of the popularity of prediction markets and stuff like crypto and penny stocks comes from the fact that many students know that life after college can be tough. The housing market has massive affordability problems, and AI is disrupting white-collar labor demand. Someone once told me that younger people like a “get rich quick” opportunity, as they feel like it’s either that or a prolonged period of struggling. Again, this isn’t scientific research. I just thought it was really fitting. That may also explain why these prediction markets are heavily promoting their services on campuses: Both companies have begun splashing cash on campuses. Polymarket has offered to pay fraternities, in exchange for signing up users, money that can be spent on throwing “epic parties” - one frat raised $30,510 over a two-week period. Both platforms have been paying student influencers to promote them as ways to raise fun money, enlisting student athletes as brand representatives and supporting student clubs. - WSJ. As we can see below, prediction markets have taken off in a big way. Initially, they spiked during the 2024 General Election. Before that, barely anyone knew about them. Then, a sustainable growth trend emerged. The total volume of these businesses is now close to half a billion dollars. The Wall Street Journal Personally, I have never placed a wager on these platforms, yet I check them almost daily. It’s absolutely incredible how many things people can bet on, including...

Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) is among the 10 Best Affordable Stocks to Invest In for the Long Term. On March 2, UBS raised the firm’s price target on Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) to $475 from $450 and maintained a Buy rating on the shares. The firm’s industry channel checks indicate strengthening pricing dynamics across both DRAM and NAND markets, with supply shortages potentially extending through 2026 and, in the case of DRAM, even into 2028. UBS noted that Micron appears to be leveraging the current supply tightness to negotiate longer-term customer agreements, potentially moderating near-term pricing upside in exchange for enhanced revenue visibility and earnings durability over the coming years. On March 1, Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) announced the grand opening of its semiconductor assembly and test facility in Sanand, Gujarat, India. The facility processes advanced DRAM and NAND wafers from Micron’s global manufacturing network into finished memory and storage products. Upon full ramp of its initial phase, the Sanand site will encompass more than 500,000 square feet of cleanroom space, expanding the company’s backend manufacturing footprint and strengthening supply chain diversification. Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) was founded in 1978 and is headquartered in Boise, Idaho. The company is a leading U.S.-based manufacturer of high-performance semiconductor memory and storage solutions, including DRAM, NAND flash, and NOR memory. Micron’s products enable artificial intelligence, advanced computing, and data-intensive applications across data center, mobile, automotive, and industrial end markets, marketed under brands such as Micron and Crucial. While we acknowledge the potential of MU as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Steve Borthwick's boss has given the England coach his backing, but says there will be a full examination of the woeful Six Nations campaign after the team's final-round match against France on Saturday. England are fifth in the table and well out of the title running after successive defeats by Scotland, Ireland and Italy - which was the first ever loss to the Azzurri - ruined their ambitions and prompted questions over Borthwick's future. "After a 12-match winning run, these past three results have been hugely disappointing, and we feel that just as much as everyone else," said Rugby Football Union chief executive Bill Sweeney. "Steve and his coaching team are working tirelessly to make improvements, and we remain fully committed to supporting them and the players as they face France this weekend and then look ahead to the Nations Championship. "Part of that support is being open about what hasn't gone right during this Six Nations and making sure everyone has a clear sense of how we move through those challenges together. That's something we'll be talking through and working on in the days and weeks ahead. "We will work together to understand and rectify why we have been unable to meet the expectations and anticipation going into these games. "England fans rightly expect a team that learns and grows through adversity, and we're confident this group will do everything they can to deliver that." Borthwick defended his record and the direction of the team after Italy, who had lost their previous 32 games against England, ran out 23-18 winners in Rome. "Absolutely," replied the 46-year-old when asked if he was the right man for the job. "Right now this is a tough period, but what we will do is learn from it and make sure we are stronger going forward. "It is tough right now and we are not hiding away from the fact it is tough."

Investors head into the new week watching the oil market after an extraordinary rally tied to the escalating conflict in the Middle East. WTI crude ( CL1:COM ) has just posted its biggest weekly gain since the contract’s launch in 1983, raising fresh concerns about inflation pressures and the potential impact on Federal Reserve policy if energy prices remain elevated. The economic calendar is highlighted by the February Consumer Price Index report on Wednesday. Economists expect headline and core inflation to come in at a 2.5% annual rate. The data will be closely scrutinized for signs that higher energy costs could complicate the Fed’s path toward interest-rate cuts later this year. On Friday, the core PCE price index, the Fed's favorite inflation gauge, arrives with January income and spending figures. The earnings calendar continues to thin out, with just four S&P 500 ( SP500 ) companies reporting. Oracle ( ORCL ) reports on Tuesday, with investors watching demand trends for AI-related cloud services. Later in the week, reports from Adobe ( ADBE ), Dollar General ( DG ), Ulta Beauty ( ULTA ), Lennar ( LEN ), and DICK'S Sporting Goods ( DKS ) will provide additional reads on enterprise spending, housing activity, and consumer demand.

Key Points Eight states still tax some of their seniors' Social Security benefits. Some West Virginia residents could still owe these taxes on their 2025 returns. Federal Social Security benefits taxes apply to residents of all states and are becoming increasingly common.

You do what you can to keep expenses down on everyday items, like shopping around and buying things on sale. But other costs are harder to control. Many retirees encounter this problem when they have to give a portion of their Social Security benefits back to Uncle Sam every year. This can cost thousands of dollars per year.

According to Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, the Ethereum blockchain can provide the infrastructure for AI. When new artificial intelligence projects launch, they could choose to launch on Ethereum first. As Buterin sees it, Ethereum provides the perfect mix of speed, scalability, and security required for the next leap forward with artificial intelligence. On...
