This really pisses me off! In America, the government should not stop citizens who have done nothing wrong, demand answers, and search for reasons to punish them.
A checkpoint turns every law-abiding driver into a suspect without probable cause. That is not public safety. It is the government conditioning people to accept being stopped, questioned, and monitored at will.
Freedom does not mean asking permission to travel a public road. Checkpoints have no place in a free country.
For my generation degen, $UPOCH is bringing checkpoints 👇 for AI agents
I don’t see this infra live or being built anywhere else
This is critical for on chain agents - they can’t reset & start from scratch every time, that’s too inefficient & costly
EVERY AGENT NEEDS THIS
Watch an agent make a bad trade and get rolled back, then rewind it yourself.
Our test agent on mainnet has 17 checkpoints: paper swaps (some good, some bad), rollbacks and restarts, all saved by Upoch Guard.
Open any checkpoint and see:
• exactly what the agent knew at that moment
• which swap went wrong
• where it was rolled back to, and what it did next
Every checkpoint is checked against Robinhood Chain right in your browser.

🚨 BREAKING: Tom Homan just issued a MAJOR warning as ICE prepares to deploy to airports starting tomorrow 👀🔥
“ICE can check identification before people even enter the screening area.”
That means enforcement could begin before TSA checkpoints — a serious shift in how airport security is handled.
The message is clear:
👉 Enforcement is expanding
👉 Security is tightening
👉 No more gaps
This is what a crackdown looks like. 🇺🇸
Should ICE be checking IDs at airports?
A. Yes, 100%
B. Yes, but limited use
C. No, not appropriate
D. Not sure
FOLLOW ME, THE NEXT DROP WILL BE SHOCKING.

Settlers move into Palestinian homes on the outskirts of Jericho, a Palestinian city in the West Bank. If they stay, their presence will have devastating consequences for the city residents. The IDF has already sent three platoons to guard the settlers.
As settlements pop up or expand, they also draw in a heavy military deployment, while new or larger “security buffer zones” appear. These zones are areas near settlements that Palestinians are barred from entering without the IDF’s permission.
If the security buffer extends onto private Palestinian land, as it often does, Palestinians would be forced to navigate a complex bureaucratic system each time they seek access. Constant military deployment would also subject Palestinians to intensified repression: more checkpoints, more arrests, more home invasions at night, and more searches on the streets. Additionally, as settlements expand, Palestinians living in their vicinity face an increased risk of becoming the next targets of ethnic cleansing by their new neighbors.
According to IDF leaks reported in the Israeli media, Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth, the IDF commander responsible for the entire West Bank, was directly involved in assisting the settlers in Jericho. He allegedly knew about the settlers’ plans and even instructed them not to inform local military officers until after they had moved in. Both the IDF and Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth later denied the allegation, but it remains an indisputable fact that there are settlers in Jericho, protected by the IDF. Moreover, the IDF is known to have a special unit dedicated to coordinating the establishment of settler farms. Avi Bluth, who established this unit, famously declared that these farms, which have been responsible for the ethnic cleansing of thousands of Palestinians in the West Bank, are part of the IDF’s doctrine.
How does bringing settlers into a Palestinian city contribute to Israeli security, you may ask? It absolutely does not. The real goal is ethnic cleansing and the annexation of the West Bank, which will only lead to more violence. The only way to ensure security for everyone living between the river and the sea is to end the occupation.

Cartagena, Colombia: During Cartagena’s Independence Day celebrations, the Embassy reminds all U.S. citizens to maintain a high level of security awareness while visiting the city. A significant increase in petty theft is expected, along with the potential for unsanctioned checkpoints and confrontations for money and/or valuables. Expect severe traffic delays due to numerous road closures, diversions, and large crowds. The Embassy recommends U.S. citizens avoid areas east of Centro Comercial Caribe Plaza. If transiting these neighborhoods is necessary, use extra caution, as residents often establish illegal roadblocks to solicit money from pedestrians and motorists. When possible, remain on main roads only, avoid large crowds, and avoid confrontations with festival participants. More at

The United States is building a land blockade around Iran to close the regime’s last supply routes and complete its economic strangulation.
CENTCOM has established Task Force Iron Gate to extend the existing naval blockade to Iran’s land borders and Caspian Sea routes.
The task force was ordered by CENTCOM commander Admiral Brad Cooper on November 7. It consists of approximately 20 civilian and military personnel based in Tampa who will coordinate with the Treasury, State Department, intelligence agencies and other American institutions.
This is not a physical blockade involving American soldiers stationed along Iran’s borders. Iran has nearly 5,900 kilometres of land frontiers shared with seven countries, plus approximately 740 kilometres of Caspian coastline. Physically sealing that territory would be impossible.
Iron Gate will instead use intelligence, satellite monitoring, financial tracking, sanctions and diplomatic pressure to disrupt the movement of weapons, dual-use technologies, sanctioned materials and illicit revenue.
The task force is the next layer of the economic siege already being enforced at sea.
CENTCOM says the naval blockade has prevented the Islamic Republic from exporting more than $25 billion in crude oil. Enforcement continues against vessels entering or leaving Iranian ports, while humanitarian shipments remain exempt.
That blockade attacked the regime’s principal source of hard currency. Iron Gate targets the routes it began using to survive and rebuild.
A Reuters investigation uncovered a covert network of more than 5,000 entities connected to Iran’s Defence Ministry. Since January 2025, the network imported at least $2 billion in explosives, rocket-fuel ingredients, titanium, precision machinery, aircraft components and heavy trucks capable of supporting missile operations.
These supplies entered through several remaining corridors:
▪️ Russian-linked shipping across the Caspian Sea.
▪️ Truck routes through Iraq, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Azerbaijan.
▪️ Air-cargo routes originating largely from China.
Those imports allowed the Islamic Republic to replenish missile and drone inventories while American and Israeli strikes damaged its production facilities.
Iron Gate is designed to make that military recovery slower, more expensive and less reliable.
The operation could target trucking companies, shipping networks, banks, front companies and foreign intermediaries. Neighbouring governments may face sanctions or political pressure if their territory continues functioning as a supply corridor for the regime.
Recent American pressure on Iraq to close all but two crossings with Iran demonstrates how the system could work. The United States does not require checkpoints on every road. It can pressure neighbouring governments to tighten borders, freeze payments and block the companies transporting sanctioned goods.
The Caspian Sea will be the hardest route to restrict because it directly implicates Russia. Russian shipping and ports offer the regime a northern corridor that cannot be closed easily without confronting Moscow’s willingness to facilitate Iranian military procurement.
The Islamic Republic will respond through shell companies, forged documents, bribery, covert flights and smuggling. Its borders are too extensive to seal completely.
But complete closure is unnecessary. Every delayed shipment, sanctioned intermediary and restricted crossing raises the cost of rebuilding the regime’s military.
The naval blockade deprives the Islamic Republic of revenue. Iron Gate targets what it can import with the money that remains.
The objective is full-spectrum economic and military pressure without a ground invasion: deny the regime the oil revenue needed to finance terrorism and proxies, then deny it the materials required to rebuild its missiles, drones and weapons factories.
The Islamic Republic survived the naval blockade by shifting its supply network inland. The United States is now moving to close the escape routes.
Claude Code's /rewind can't bring back a file it deleted with rm.
It's right there in the docs. Checkpoints track the edits Claude makes with its own file tools. Anything changed by a bash command, rm, mv, cp, sits outside that, and rewind won't touch it.
So when the agent decides to "clean up" with rm -rf, you press Esc twice, your edits come back and the deleted folder stays deleted.
Two things cover most of this. Add a deny rule to ~/.claude/settings.json, like "Bash(rm:*)", and deny always wins over allow. And commit before you ask it to clean anything up, because git is the real undo button here.
The deny rule is just pattern matching, so something like find -delete can still slip through. That's why the commit matters more than the rule.
When did you last commit before letting an agent touch your files?
