    At the industry conference “Electronic Engineering – 2025” held in early June MIEM HSE University and JSC Nanotronika (part of the Element Group of Companies) signed a strategic partnership agreement. The conference was held on the campus of SberUniversity and brought together more than 600 participants from 200 organizations, including leading enterprises, research centers, and universities. The event was supported by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation and the Ministry of Industry of the Republic of Belarus.

    The conference was actively attended by HSE Vice-Rector and MIEM Director Dmitry Kovalenko, Institute Advisor and Lecturer in the Department of Electronic Engineering Vladimir Vetrov, HSE Full Professor and Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Konstantin Petrosyants and MIEM Head of the Department of Electronic Engineering Boris Lvov.

    Dmitry Kovalenko and Konstantin Petrosyants spoke at the conference. The report by the MIEM Director touched upon the problems of training and developing the industry’s human resources potential in the context of the country’s course to strengthen technological sovereignty. Dmitry Kovalenko presented a detailed picture of the institute’s educational technologies aimed at solving modern problems in the field of electronic engineering, placing special emphasis on the mechanisms of interaction with technological partners from the industry implemented by the institute: large companies, leading research and financial organizations. The report was presented as part of the round table “Human Resources for Electronic Engineering”. Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Konstantin Petrosyants presented a report on the testing and implementation of a subsystem for determining the parameters of SPICE models of electronic components for industrial circuit CAD systems.

    The main event of the conference for MIEM was the conclusion of an agreement with JSC Nanotronika, one of the young and most promising companies in the field of microelectronics and equipment, part of the Element Group. The agreement opens up new horizons for cooperation. The document provides for comprehensive interaction affecting educational, scientific and design areas of activity.

    Among the priorities of the joint work is the organization of educational events with the participation of specialists and managers of the company “Nanotronika”. Representatives of the company will regularly give lectures to students, conduct practical classes and master classes, providing students with knowledge and skills relevant to the labor market.

    An important element of the partnership will be project and research activities. The Nanotronika company will form a pool of projects, participation in which will allow MIEM students to gain real experience in solving modern engineering and technological problems. It is also envisaged to conduct joint scientific research and experimental design work (R&D), organize conferences, seminars and round tables with the participation of both parties.

    The agreement pays special attention to the organization of industrial and pre-graduation practice. Students will be able to get acquainted with the high-tech production of the Nanotronika company, which will allow them to improve their professional competence and successfully adapt to industry enterprises after completing their studies. The company, for its part, will regularly inform MIEM about vacancies and employment opportunities for graduates who have proven themselves during practice and training.

    In addition, the parties agreed to jointly prepare and publish scientific articles, reports and teaching aids reflecting the results of joint projects. One of the most important steps in implementing the agreement will be the creation of a joint workshop in the field of electronic engineering. This workshop will be equipped with modern tools and technologies and will become a practical platform where students and specialists of the company will be able to jointly develop and test innovative technologies.

    “The development of electronic engineering today is of strategic importance for ensuring the technological sovereignty of the country,” says Dmitry Kovalenko. “In the context of global restrictions and growing demands on domestic microelectronics, the need to create our own infrastructure is growing – from design to production. The issue of personnel is especially acute: the industry requires highly qualified engineers capable of developing, implementing and servicing the most complex technological systems. This is why partnerships between leading universities and industrial companies are becoming not just desirable, but vital for the formation of a sustainable innovation ecosystem.”

    “JSC Nanotronika specializes in the development and production of special technological equipment for microelectronics,” says Yulia Sukhoroslova, CEO of JSC Nanotronika. “It is impossible to provide Russian electronic components manufacturers with domestic high-tech installations without qualified personnel. Therefore, it is especially important for us to develop cooperation with universities and form teams of specialists with the necessary competencies. One of the most effective ways to train personnel is to involve students in solving real scientific and industrial problems. Our company, as an industrial partner, provides future specialists with the opportunity to participate in advanced projects and gain unique experience in developing the most modern equipment.”

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Financial news: Clarifications on issues of credit institutions related to blocked assets

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Central Bank of Russia (2) –

    Updated: 30.06.2025.

    Bank of Russia Instruction No. 6379-U of 23.03.2023 “On the procedure for reflecting certain assets and liabilities in foreign currency in accounting accounts by credit institutions under restrictive measures” (hereinafter referred to as Instruction No. 6379-U) establishes the specifics of reflecting non-refundable blocked assets denominated in foreign currency in accounting accounts: these assets are recorded in rubles without reflecting currency revaluation. At the same time, Instruction No. 6379-U does not provide for any other exceptions from the general methodological principles of reflecting financial assets in accounting.

    Due to the requirements of the Bank of Russia’s accounting regulations, when applying them, credit institutions are guided by International Financial Reporting Standards (hereinafter referred to as IFRS). Thus, the estimated reserve for expected credit losses on financial assets is reflected by credit institutions in accounting in accordance with paragraph 5.5.1 of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” (hereinafter referred to as IFRS 9), and the method for assessing expected credit losses is determined in accordance with paragraph 5.5.17 of IFRS 9.

    It is important to note that the principles of IFRS 9 do not provide for any specifics regarding assets that are non-current assets for Russian credit institutions, including the fact that the definition of a credit-impaired financial asset does not contain any circumstances due to which a blocked asset is recognized as non-current assets.

    In their economic essence, NZA are losses of the CI, which, due to the relaxation introduced by the Bank of Russia, are recognized for the purposes of prudential regulation not at one time, but over a long period of time, until 2032, under the preferential reserve formation scheme for possible losses. At the same time, the preferential reserve scheme is not provided for by the principles of IFRS 9, that is, estimated reserves for expected credit losses are formed, including for accrued but not received interest income on NZA, in the amount of 100%.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Financial news: Answers to typical requests from credit institutions on banking regulation and supervision

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Central Bank of Russia (2) –

    Question

    from 15.10.2024

    The Bank requests that the data sources used to reflect information about the address of residence (registration) of an individual be unified:

    1. When filling out the register of obligations in accordance with Bank of Russia Instruction No. 4990-U.

    2. When forming the credit history of an individual subject in accordance with Bank of Russia Regulation No. 758-P1.

    3. When identifying an individual client and generating formalized electronic messages in accordance with Bank of Russia Instruction No. 5861-U2.

    1 Bank of Russia Regulation dated 11.05.2021 No. 758-P “On the procedure for forming a credit history” (hereinafter referred to as Bank of Russia Regulation No. 758-P).

    2 Bank of Russia Instruction dated 15.07.2021 No. 5861-U “On the procedure for submitting data and information by credit institutions to the authorized body in accordance with Articles 7 and 7.5 of the Federal Law “On Combating the Legalization (Laundering) of Criminally Obtained Incomes and the Financing of Terrorism” (hereinafter referred to as Bank of Russia Instruction No. 5861-U).

    Answer

    dated 11/15/2024 No. 4990-U-2024/8

    Regarding question 1.

    The source of data for reflecting information about the address of residence (registration) of the depositor1 are entries in the passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation or, for persons under the age of fourteen, in the certificate of registration at the place of residence2.

    If the identity document (hereinafter referred to as the I.D.) of an individual depositor does not contain certain address-forming elements (for example, the name of the region, city) of the depositor’s place of residence (registration), this information may be supplemented by the bank based on information from the registration authority that registered such depositor at the place of residence (stay), or based on additional information provided by the depositor when concluding the agreement or during the depositor’s next visit to the bank.

    In the event of a discrepancy between the data on the depositor’s residential address (registration), filled in on the basis of the DUL, and the information reflected in the GAR FIAS3, the bank may, when sending the register of obligations to the Bank of Russia, provide additional explanations (comments) on the sources of relevant information it used.

    At the same time, we note that in order to unify approaches to recording the address of an individual used to fill out the register of obligations and to identify the client4, it is planned to make editorial clarifications to Bank of Russia Instruction No. 4990-U, providing for the possibility of reflecting information about the address of the place of residence of an individual depositor when filling out lines of the register of obligations related to the address of residence (registration) and the address for postal notifications5.

    Regarding question 2.

    In accordance with Part 1 of Article 5 of Federal Law No. 218-FZ6, sources of credit history formation submit to the credit history bureau all available information specified in Article 4 of Federal Law No. 218-FZ, in the manner established by Bank of Russia Regulation No. 758-P.

    The specified procedure establishes unified requirements for the formation of credit information indicators, including technical ones, which allows for the automation of information interaction between financial market participants and the bureau, reduces the costs of interaction participants, minimizes the risks of incorrect formation of credit information and, as a result, increases its accuracy and quality, in connection with which, in particular, information about the registration address (residence) of the subject of the credit history is formed in the form of a unique address number of the addressing object in the State Register of Financial Accounting Information (according to the indicator “Address number in the State Register”, the code of the settlement, street code, house (property) code, building code and apartment number code are indicated)7.

    The unification of requirements for the formation of credit information indicators is also of particular importance to ensure the ability of financial market participants – users of credit histories – to automate the process of processing credit information for its use for analytical purposes.

    At the same time, we note that, along with the formation of the credit information indicator “Address Number in the State Register” (the unique address number of the addressing object in the State Register of Financial Accounting Systems), Bank of Russia Regulation No. 758-P provides for the formation by the source of other credit information indicators containing information about the subject’s address, which can be formed both on the basis of information from the subject’s DUL and on the basis of information about the address contained in the State Register of Financial Accounting Systems (in addition to the unique address number of the addressing object in the State Register of Financial Accounting Systems).

    In this regard, the addition of credit information indicators, provided for by Bank of Russia Regulation No. 758-P, with indicators that provide for filling in address information from the DUL has already been implemented in Bank of Russia Regulation No. 758-P.

    Regarding question 3.

    In accordance with paragraph two of subparagraph 1 of paragraph 1 of Article 7 of Federal Law No. 115-FZ8, when identifying individuals, credit institutions are obliged to establish data, including the address of residence (registration) or place of stay.

    According to paragraph fourteen of Article 3 of Federal Law No. 115-FZ, confirmation of the accuracy of information obtained during the identification process is carried out using original documents and (or) duly certified copies and (or) state and other information systems.

    Taking into account the provisions of Part One of Article 2 of Federal Law No. 115-FZ, the norm of the second paragraph of subparagraph 1 of paragraph 1 of Article 7 of Federal Law No. 115-FZ is of a universal nature and applies to all subjects subject to identification – individuals, both citizens of the Russian Federation and foreign citizens, and stateless persons.

    The above-mentioned provision in terms of establishing the address of an individual provides for the possibility, in order for credit institutions to comply with the requirement of Federal Law No. 115-FZ on the identification of individuals, to establish information either on the address of their place of residence (registration) or place of stay. In this case, the concepts of “registration of a citizen of the Russian Federation at the place of stay”, “registration of a citizen of the Russian Federation at the place of residence”, “place of stay”, “place of residence” are defined by Article 2 of the Law of the Russian Federation of 25.06.1993 No. 5242-1 “On the Right of Citizens of the Russian Federation to Freedom of Movement, Choice of Place of Stay and Residence within the Russian Federation” and can be used by credit institutions to comply with the requirements of paragraph two of subparagraph 1 of paragraph 1 of Article 7 of Federal Law No. 115-FZ.

    The provision of the second paragraph of subparagraph 1 of paragraph 1 of Article 7 of Federal Law No. 115-FZ in terms of establishing by credit institutions, when identifying an individual client, information about the address of his/her place of residence (registration) or place of stay, does not in itself contain a requirement for the registration of such a client in the territory of the Russian Federation (a specific subject of the Russian Federation) or outside it, and does not define the sources of information on the basis of which this information should be established. In this regard, credit institutions, in order to implement the specified requirement, independently determine the relevant sources of information in the internal control rules.

    Bank of Russia Instruction No. 5861-U defines the procedure for sending by credit institutions the information provided for by Federal Law No. 115-FZ to the authorized body, and not the identification requirements. When sending the relevant information to the authorized body, containing information, including the address of an individual, such information is reflected in accordance with the data from the client’s questionnaire (dossier), obtained during his identification (updating identification information).

    1 Line 6 “Address of place of residence (registration)” of Table 3.1 of Section I of the Appendix to Bank of Russia Instruction No. 4990-U.

    2 In accordance with paragraph 18 of the RF Government Resolution of 17.07.1995 No. 713 “On approval of the Rules for registration and deregistration of citizens of the Russian Federation at the place of stay and place of residence within the Russian Federation and the list of persons responsible for receiving and transferring to the registration authorities documents for registration and deregistration of citizens of the Russian Federation at the place of stay and place of residence within the Russian Federation.”

    3 State Address Register of the Federal Information Address System (hereinafter referred to as the State Address Register of the Federal Information Address System). As a general rule, address elements in the Russian Federation must comply with the State Address Register of the Federal Information Address System, which is related to ensuring compliance with the requirement of Article 12 of the Federal Law of 23.12.2003 No. 177-FZ “On Insurance of Deposits in Banks of the Russian Federation”, which provides for sending messages to depositors of a bank in respect of which an insured event has occurred.

    4 As part of the client identification procedure carried out for the purpose of combating the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism, it is possible to obtain data on the client’s location (subparagraph 1.7 of paragraph 1 of Appendix 1 to Bank of Russia Regulation No. 499-P of 15.10.2015 “On the identification by credit institutions of clients, client representatives, beneficiaries and beneficial owners for the purpose of combating the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism”).

    5 Changes are planned to be made to the names of the corresponding lines of the register of obligations: “Address of place of residence (registration) or place of stay”, as well as to the explanations for filling in information about the address for postal notifications.

    6 Federal Law of 30.12.2004 No. 218-FZ “On Credit Histories”.

    7 Clause 4.3 of Chapter 4 of Section 1 of Appendix 3 to Bank of Russia Regulation No. 758-P.

    8 Federal Law of 07.08.2001 No. 115-FZ “On Combating the Legalization (Laundering) of Criminally Obtained Incomes and the Financing of Terrorism.”

  • MIL-OSI USA: Evans Announces He Won’t Seek Re-Election, Will Serve Full Term Ending Jan. 3, 2027

    Source: United States House of Representatives – Representative Dwight Evans (2nd District of Pennsylvania)

    PHILADELPHIA (June 30, 2025) – Congressman Dwight Evans (D-PA-3) today announced that he will not seek re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2026, concluding a distinguished career in public service spanning over four decades.

    “Serving the people of Philadelphia has been the honor of my life,” said Evans. “And I remain in good health and fully capable of continuing to serve. After some discussions this weekend and thoughtful reflection, I have decided that the time is right to announce that I will not be seeking re-election in 2026. I will serve out the full term that ends Jan. 3, 2027. I am deeply proud of what I have been able to accomplish over my 45 years in elected office — from revitalizing neighborhoods block by block to fighting for justice, economic opportunity, investments in infrastructure and education. I cannot express the gratitude that I have for the trust that voters put in me as their voice in both state and federal office. It has been a privilege of a lifetime to serve as their advocate in government.”

    Evans emphasized that he will continue to serve his constituents fully until the end of his term, that his offices will remain open, and that he will support a smooth transition for his successor.

    A Legacy of Service to Philadelphia

    Born in North Philadelphia and raised in the Germantown and West Oak Lane neighborhoods, Dwight Evans began his career as a teacher in the city’s public schools and as a community organizer with the Urban League. In 1980, at just 26 years old, he was elected to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, where he served for 36 years. He made history as the first African-American chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, serving in that powerful role for two decades.

    Among his signature accomplishments in Harrisburg was spearheading the Pennsylvania Fresh Food Financing Initiative, which brought healthy grocery stores and thousands of jobs to underserved communities and became a national model for bringing healthy food to food deserts in both urban and rural areas. He was also instrumental in the creation of Pennsylvania’s Children’s Health Insurance Program, which became the model for nationwide CHIP.

    In 2016, Evans was elected to represent Pennsylvania’s 2nd Congressional District (later redistricted as the 3rd), succeeding longtime Congressman Chaka Fattah. In Congress, he serves on the influential Ways and Means Committee, which oversees Social Security, Medicare, taxes and trade, and has served on the Small Business Committee and Agriculture Committee, advocating for equitable economic development, criminal justice reform, funding for school repairs, affordable housing, and access to health care and healthy food.

    In 2025, Evans has fought to defend gains made during the Biden-Harris administration and against the pending Trump “Reverse Robin Hood” bill that would give the richest another tax cut and cut Medicaid and SNAP food aid. He fought the bill during a nearly 18-hour markup in the Ways and Means Committee, and voted against it in the full House – a vote two Republicans slept through, including one 31 years younger than Evans. He will vote against it again if the Senate returns it to the House.

    Evans has been a vocal supporter of key legislation including the American Rescue Plan, Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Inflation Reduction Act, and Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. He also introduced bills to address gun violence, finance repairs to schools, invest in historically Black colleges and universities, and promote economic empowerment in urban communities.

    Throughout his time in public office, Evans remained rooted in his neighborhood — living just blocks from where he grew up — and never wavered in his commitment to building a better Philadelphia for all.

    Evans represents the 3rd Congressional District, which includes Northwest and West Philadelphia and parts of North, South, Southwest and Center City Philadelphia. He recently announced that his office returned to or saved $4.5 million for constituents in 2024 in cases involving federal agencies such as the IRS, Social Security Administration and Department of Veterans Affairs. The 2024 figure brings Evans’ office’s total to more than $45.5 million returned to or saved for constituents during his first eight full years in Congress.

    Evans serves on the influential House Ways and Means Committee, including its Subcommittee on Health. The committee oversees Social Security, Medicare, taxes, and trade. Evans’ website is evans.house.gov and his social media handle is @RepDwightEvans on YouTube, Bluesky, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Threads.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Dingell, Fitzpatrick, Klobuchar Introduce Bipartisan, Bicameral Legislation to Close the Boyfriend Loophole

    Source: United States House of Representatives – Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (12th District of Michigan)

    U.S. Representatives Debbie Dingell (D-MI) and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), along with Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), introduced bipartisan, bicameral legislation aimed at closing the ‘boyfriend loophole,’ which allows stalkers and abusers to access guns because they weren’t married to their victim. The Strengthening Protections for Domestic Violence and Stalking Survivors Act prevents convicted stalkers, and all former dating partners convicted of a domestic violence offense, from buying or owning firearms, regardless of when the relationship occurred. 

    “Federal law includes a ‘boyfriend loophole’ that allows abusive dating partners subject to protection orders and convicted stalkers to access firearms. This loophole is a serious danger that has cost lives and will continue to do so until we address it,” said Dingell. “I know this fear all too well. Growing up, I lived in a house with a man – my father – who should not have had access to a gun. No child, spouse, or partner should have to experience the trauma my family did. This legislation will close this loophole once and for all by ensuring abusive dating partners subject to protection orders and convicted stalkers cannot get their hands on a firearm. Perpetrators of violence – including dating partners – should not be able to access a firearm, and I will not stop fighting until we can deliver on this promise.”

    “If someone has been convicted of stalking or abusing their partner, they should never be allowed to buy a gun. That’s common sense. But unfortunately, loopholes in federal law still put survivors at risk,” said Fitzpatrick. “This bill closes those gaps, ensuring all violent offenders are held to the same standard—spouse, boyfriend, or otherwise. I’ve long made combatting domestic violence and stalking a priority and will continue advancing policies to guarantee every survivor is protected.”

    “The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act included provisions from my bill to close the boyfriend loophole, but there is still more we need to do to address gun violence and keep firearms out of the hands of abusive dating partners and convicted stalkers,” said Klobuchar. “As a former prosecutor, I have seen firsthand the serious emotional and physical toll stalking takes on victims, especially when guns are involved. By preventing convicted stalkers from purchasing guns, our common sense legislation will protect victims and help save lives.”

    The Strengthening Protections for Domestic Violence and Stalking Survivors Act would:

    • Prevent those convicted of certain stalking offenses from purchasing firearms;
    • Clarify that abusive dating partners subject to certain court orders are treated the same as an abusive spouse;
    • Update the definition of “dating relationship” for purposes of federal firearm prohibitions to include “individuals who have or have had a continuing serious relationship of a romantic or intimate nature,” regardless of when the relationship occurred. The law currently requires that the dating relationship is “recent,” which could exclude abusers convicted of domestic violence against partners from a prior relationship.

    This bill is endorsed by the National Domestic Violence Hotline, National Network to End Domestic Violence, Moms Demand Action, GIFFORDS, Jewish Women International, and Legal Momentum. 

    “Victims and survivors of domestic violence in any intimate or dating relationship, regardless of marital status, are vulnerable to the threat of firearms. Every day, the National Domestic Violence Hotline (The Hotline) hears from those whose abusive experiences include the use of firearms to threaten, coerce, and control them. And tragically, thousands of victims have lost their lives by firearms,” said Marium Durrani, Vice President of Policy at The Hotline. “We applaud the incredible bipartisan dedication of these Members of Congress to finally close these dangerous loopholes to better protect victims and survivors from gun violence and we urge Congress to act— lives are on the line.”

    “Survivors of dating violence and stalking deserve the full protection of the law, regardless of their relationship status. For too long, a dangerous loophole has allowed abusive partners and stalkers who are not married to their victims to access firearms, despite posing clear threats to survivor safety,” said NNEDV President and CEO, Stephanie Love-Patterson. “This gap in our laws has had deadly consequences. Abuse is abuse, whether it happens within a marriage or not. Every survivor deserves safety, justice, and the opportunity to rebuild their life free from fear. We applaud Representatives Dingell and Fitzpatrick, and Senator Klobuchar, for their leadership and for taking this critical step toward saving lives.”

    “Letting abusers keep their guns is a death sentence for too many women—especially Black women,” said Angela Ferrell-Zabala, executive director of Moms Demand Action. “This bill is a life-saving solution, and we’re proud to support its reintroduction. We can’t claim to care about families and freedom while ignoring the deadly intersection of domestic violence and firearms.”

    “Our laws have big loopholes in them that make it easier for domestic abusers to get guns and have very real consequences for victims of domestic violence and stalking. This is an unacceptable and dangerous reality that puts the lives of women and children at risk across the country,” said Emma Brown, Executive Director at GIFFORDS. “95% of Americans support blocking domestic abusers from having guns, including 94% of Republicans. We are grateful to Senator Klobuchar and Representatives Debbie Dingell and Brian Fitzpatrick for their steadfast leadership on this issue.”

    “The risk of a woman being killed by her intimate partner increases 400% when that partner has access to a firearm. But most victims of intimate partner violence are dating partners and under current law do not have the same protections from armed abusers as married survivors do,” said Meredith Jacobs, CEO of Jewish Women International. “Jewish Women International applauds Representatives Debbie Dingell and Brian Fitzpatrick and Senator Amy Klobuchar for re-introducing legislation that will fully close the dating and stalking loopholes and for their ongoing leadership to disarm domestic abusers.”

    “For far too long, survivors of dating violence and stalking have been left exposed by a glaring weakness in our gun safety laws—the so-called ‘boyfriend loophole.’ This bipartisan legislation represents a long-overdue step toward protecting all survivors, regardless of relationship status. By finally closing this loophole, we can stop known abusers from accessing deadly weapons and interrupt the cycle of violence before it escalates further,” said Azaleea Carlea, Legal Director of Legal Momentum. “The data is undeniable: when abusers have access to firearms, the risk of homicide increases fivefold. The link between guns and lethality in intimate partner violence is not just well-documented, it’s devastatingly clear and our laws must reflect this reality. Legal Momentum strongly supports this legislation because no survivor should be left unprotected simply because the law failed to recognize their relationship or the threats they face. Safety should never depend on a legal technicality.”

    Bacon to Retire at End of 119th Congress

    Touts Accomplishes and Pledges to Continue Outstanding Service and Pursue Legislative Initiatives

    Omaha, Neb. – Today, Rep. Don Bacon (NE-02), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee’s (HASC) Cyber, Information Technologies and Innovation Subcommittee (CITI), announced he will not seek reelection in 2026 and will retire at the end of the 119th Congress. 

    “After consultation with my family and much prayer, I have decided not to seek reelection in 2026 and will fulfill my term in the 119th Congress through January 2, 2027. After three decades in the Air Force and now going on one decade in Congress, I look forward to coming home in the evenings and being with my wife and seeing more of our adult children and eight grandchildren, who all live near my home. I’ve been married for 41 years, and I’d like to dedicate more time to my family, my church, and the Omaha community. I also want to continue advocating for a strong national security strategy and a strong alliance system with countries that share our love of democracy, free markets and the rule of law. 

    “During the remainder of the 119th Congress, we will be focused on finishing the job. Providing top-notch constituent services in the district, for which we were recognized in 2021 with the Congressional Management Foundation’s Democracy Awards for Constituent Services in 2021, will be a priority as it always has been.  

    “To date, we have processed close to 8,500 casework/requests for assistance; we have helped people who were wrongly marked as deceased, helped citizens in distress around the world return home; helped people devasted by disasters such as flood and tornadoes, literally climb out of the ruble and connect them with resources; we have solved problems with Medicare, Social Security and IRS problems, passports and immigration, and so much more. Our team has worked diligently every day to advocate for and deliver on behalf of our constituents. 

    “Legislatively, I aim to work to get five agricultural bills passed that were included as part of the Farm Bill, including the increase of defenses for our nation’s food supply chain and removing barriers for the next generation of farmers seeking to establish their operations. I will continue my work on the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and lay the groundwork for a new VA hospital in Omaha.  

    “My service to our great nation started in the Air Force, where I served sixteen assignments, five commands and four deployments and will continue in Congress until the end of the 119th Congress. I’d like to find new ways to serve our great country.  I have a love for national security, and I’ll always be a proponent for old-fashioned Ronald Reagan Conservative values.  It has been an honor to serve the 2nd District of Nebraska and the nation, and I thank our constituents for trusting me to represent them. I am proud of the work we have done and will continue to do until the lights in the office are turned off for the last time. Thank you, and God bless America.”

  • MIL-OSI USA: Congressional Delegation Requests Documents and Demands Answers on Detention of Georgetown Scholar Badar Khan Suri

    Source: United States House of Representatives – Representative Don Beyer (D-VA)

    U.S. Representative Don Beyer (D-VA) and 21 additional Members of Congress demanded relevant documentation and information related to the arrest and detention of Georgetown postdoctoral fellow Dr. Badar Khan Suri. In a letter addressed to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, lawmakers sought urgent clarification regarding the justification for Dr. Khan Suri’s arrest by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on March 17, 2025, and his subsequent detention. The lawmakers also requested the disclosure of key documents and evidence substantiating the federal government’s claims and actions, citing serious concerns about due process violations and the misuse of immigration authorities.

    The documents and key information requested by the lawmakers include:

    • The full and complete March 15th State Department memo, including all attachments, that describe Secretary Rubio’s finding that Dr. Khan Suri’s presence or activities in the United States would have potentially serious foreign policy consequences for the United States and would compromise a compelling United States foreign policy interest.
    • Dr. Khan Suri’s I-213 Record of Deportable/Inadmissible Alien from the Department of Homeland Security, including details about Dr. Khan Suri’s apprehension, criminal history, prior immigration encounters, and other relevant information that supports potential grounds for deportation or inadmissibility. 
    • Any and all evidence in the Department of Homeland Security’s possession related to the activities referred to in a X (formerly Twitter) post from DHS Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin, stating that “Suri was a foreign exchange student at Georgetown University actively spreading Hamas propaganda and promoting antisemitism on social media. Khan Suri has close connections to a known or suspected terrorist, who is a senior advisor to Hamas.”
    • The Department of Homeland Security’s documented reasons for Dr. Badar Khan Suri’s transfer to the Prairieland Detention Facility in Alvarado, TX.
    • Any information provided from outside groups such as Canary Mission.

    Dr. Badar Khan Suri is a legally admitted visiting scholar with no prior criminal record, was never charged with a crime, and the obscure immigration provision with which he was charged is not a ground for mandatory detention. The Administration has made no credible argument to support his arrest or detention. However, Dr. Khan Suri was held in ICE custody at the Prairieland Detention Center, where he was deemed a high-risk custody detainee requiring maximum security control and supervision until his court-ordered release on May 14, 2025. The circumstances surrounding his arrest and detention violate Dr. Khan Suri’s constitutional rights, including his First Amendment and due process rights.

    Full text of the letter follows below, and a signed copy is available here.

    ***

    Dear Secretary Rubio and Secretary Noem:

    We write to request key information and documents pertaining to the case of Georgetown postdoctoral fellow Dr. Badar Khan Suri, who was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on March 17th. Specifically we seek the following: from the State Department, the attachments cited in the March 15th memo issued by the Secretary presenting the finding that Dr. Khan Suri’s presence and activities in the United States would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences and would compromise a compelling U.S. foreign policy interest, including “Tab 1- DHS Letter on Badar Khan Suri” and “Tab 2- HSI Subject Profile of Badar Khan Suri” and the time and content of the notice provided to relevant Congressional committees; and from the Department of Homeland Security, Dr. Khan Suri’s I-213, his Notice of Custody Determination, the documented reasons for the detainee transfer, context pertaining to Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin’s March 19th comments as well as context pertaining to how Dr. Khan Suri was identified by DHS.

    Dr. Badar Khan Suri held J-1 visa status as a visiting scholar and postdoctoral fellow at Georgetown University at the Alwaleed Bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding. He was duly admitted to the United States on this visa in December 2022. He is married to a U.S. citizen, with whom he has three children: a nine-year-old son and five-year-old twins—a boy and a girl. At the time of his arrest, he was teaching a course as an adjunct professor on Majoritarianism & Minority Rights in South Asia at Georgetown University. He has spent his life studying peace and conflict resolution and hopes to become a university professor and embark on a career in academia and teaching. Dr. Khan Suri and his wife moved to the United States because it ensures religious freedom for all, and they wanted to raise their children in a society that values religious tolerance.

    Dr. Khan Suri was charged with removability under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) § 237(a)(4)(C)(i) and detained pursuant to INA § 236(a).  Masked and physically unidentifiable Homeland Security agents arrested Suri at approximately 9:30 p.m. in Arlington, Virginia on the evening of March 17, 2025 pursuant to a Warrant for Arrest of Alien, Form I-200.  The Constitution establishes due process rights for “all ‘persons’ within the United States, including [noncitizens], whether their presence here is lawful, unlawful, temporary, or permanent.”  The government has not disclosed information to support that the detention of Mr. Suri was justified. It has not demonstrated that Mr. Suri—a husband to a U.S. citizen, a father of three young children, and with no criminal history—needed to be detained. An ICE officer involved in his booking stated that they knew he was not a criminal and did not do anything wrong.

    The law limits the government’s authority to deport people under INA § 237(a)(4)(C)(i) and imposes key requirements in such instances. The Executive Branch does not have the authority to deny visas to foreigners solely because of the foreigner’s political beliefs or because of their anticipated speech in the United States. When Congress passed the Moynihan Amendment in 1987, the Senate Committee warned that “[f]or many years the United States has embarrassed itself by excluding prominent foreigners from visiting the United States solely because of their political beliefs…individuals had done no more than exercise rights to freedom of expression and association…constitutionally protected for all U.S. citizens.”  The Secretary’s authority to determine that entry would compromise foreign policy interests should be used “sparingly and not merely because there is a likelihood that an alien will make critical remarks about the United States or its policies, and that the “compelling foreign policy interest” standard should be applied strictly. 

    If a reasoning has been made on foreign policy grounds, the Secretary of State cannot exclude or condition entry based on a noncitizen’s “past, current, or expected beliefs, statements, or associations, if such beliefs, statements, or associations would be lawful within the United States,” unless the Secretary personally certifies to Congress that admitting the individual would compromise a compelling U.S. foreign policy interest.  Therefore, we request the full and complete March 15th memo, including all attachments that describe Secretary Rubio’s finding that Dr. Khan Suri’s presence or activities in the United States would have potentially serious foreign policy consequences for the United States and would compromise a compelling United States foreign policy interest. We also require the notice (including when it was provided and justification therein) provided to the Chairs of the Committees on the Judiciary and Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives and of the Committees on the Judiciary and Foreign Relations of the Senate.

    Department policy also requires additional procedures for detainees in custody of the Department of Homeland Security. ICE Policy 11022.1, “Detainee Transfers,” prohibits the transfer of individuals from one Field Office’s area of responsibility to another if, inter alia, they have immediate family, an attorney of record, pending or ongoing removal proceedings within the area, or if they have been granted bond or requested a bond hearing, unless a Field Office Director or their designee deems the transfer necessary for one of the seven specific reasons identified in the policy.  The policy states that “[t]he Immigration Officer will conduct a review to determine whether any of these factors exist. Before a transfer is made in a case where one or more of these factors exist, the transfer must be approved at the Assistant Field Office Director level or higher, and the reasons for the transfer must be documented in the detainee’s A-File. The policy also states that ICE is required to notify the attorney of record that the individual “is being transferred and include the reason for the transfer and the name, location, and telephone number of the new facility as soon as practicable on the day of the transfer, but in no circumstances later than twenty-four (24) hours after the transfer occurs.” Please provide the documented reasons for the transfer of Dr. Khan Suri.

    Additionally, ICE Directive 11064.3, “Interests of Noncitizen Parents and Legal Guardians of Minor Children or Incapacitated Adults” requires the Field Office Director to refrain from transferring detained noncitizens outside of the Field Office’s area of responsibility where their child or children are located unless dictated by exceptional circumstances or court order. Even when transfer is dictated, the Field Office Director must place the noncitizen as close as practicable to the minor child or children.  At the time of his transfer to Louisiana and then Texas, Dr. Khan Suri had a wife and three young children, and an attorney of record, in Virginia. Please share the justification provided either by exceptional circumstances or the court order provided for the transfers to Louisiana and Texas as well as the justification for how Texas was determined to be as close as practicable.

    On March 19, DHS Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs McLaughlin posted on X that “Suri was a foreign exchange student at Georgetown University actively spreading Hamas propaganda and promoting antisemitism on social media. Khan Suri has close connections to a known or suspected terrorist, who is a senior advisor to Hamas.” Please share any and all evidence, if you possess it, to the activities referred to in this post, accompanied by clarification of which activities were used as supporting information for his detention and under what grounds it was included.

    In addition, as part of Dr. Khan Suri’s detention, he was issued a Notice of Custody Determination and an I-213. Please provide those documents in full. In each of these requests for documentation, we ask that you also provide assurance of authentication for each document. In the event that documentation does not exist and therefore cannot be produced, please indicate as such. In the event that documentation contains classified information, please indicate and provide a vehicle through which Members and Congressional staff with appropriate security clearance can view such information in a congressional SCIF.

    Lastly, it would appear as if DHS targeted Dr. Khan Suri because of his identification by Canary Mission, a group that is involved in a McCarthyistic doxxing campaign towards individuals and their associates that champion pro-Palestinian viewpoints. In another recent case, a district court judge found DHS and DOS acted on a tweet from Betar and pressure from Canary Mission to strip someone of a student visa.  Please share if information identified by or communication by/with Betar, Canary Mission, Middle East Forum, or another outside group was used as evidence or support in the case of Dr. Khan Suri. If yes, what steps were taken to authenticate their evidence.

    Dr. Khan Suri is a scholar on conflict resolution who has no criminal record, and the Administration has made no credible argument to support his arrest and detention. His arrest and detention appear to violate Dr. Khan Suri’s constitutional rights, including the First Amendment and the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment. The Administration must explain and document its actions in this case, which appear to have flagrantly abused and possibly violated statutory authorities, and which have hitherto been carried out with a disturbing lack of transparency to the public.

    The Administration has done nothing to demonstrate its claims that Dr. Badar Khan Suri is a threat to the public, or to justify holding him with minimal outside contact 1,300 miles away from his wife and young children. This situation is intolerable, and demands urgent and speedy remedy, and we therefore request a response no later than July 11, 2025.

    Sincerely,

  • MIL-OSI: Equasens: acquisition of DIS and RESURGENCES BUSINESSES

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Villers-lès-Nancy (France), 30 June 2025 – 06:00 PM (CET)

    PRESS RELEASE

    EQUASENS ACQUIRES DIS AND RESURGENCES BUSINESSES, STRENGTHENING ITS POSITION IN THE MARKET OF SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS FOR HEALTHCARE ESTABLISHMENTS.

    Strengthening the position of a leading provider of software solutions for hospitals and the medical-social sector

    • Transaction finalised: acquisition of Novaprove, publisher of ResUrgences software and the DIS business assets, (GESDIS, FACDIS, ARCADIS ranges)
    • Acquisition scope: more than 300 customers in the public healthcare sector, with annual revenue of around €5 million
    • The AXIGATE LINK Division strengthens its position in the market of software solutions for public healthcare establishments
    • Industrial synergies: The AXIGATE LINK Division expands its range of digital products and services for health and medico-social establishments.

    ***

    Equasens Group (Euronext Paris™ – Compartment B – FR 0012882389 -$EQS), announces the completion of the acquisition on July 1, 2025, by its AXIGATE LINK Division through its subsidiary Axigate, of two businesses specialising in solutions for the public healthcare sector from a French software solutions editor.

    This strategic acquisition which is a product of the exclusive negotiations announced on 30 April will contribute to Equasens’ goal to significantly strengthen its position in the hospital and medico-social software market, by creating a complete technology ecosystem to support the digital transformation of public and private establishments.

    Scope and impact of the acquisition
    The acquired business assets cover more than 300 customers in the public healthcare sector and generate annual sales of around €5m. They include:

    • ResUrgences (Novaprove): a cloud-based software platform specialising in the management of hospital emergency services, equipping 8 university hospitals (CHU) and a total of 75 customers. This functionally reliable and robust technological solution optimises the management of emergency department patient flows and care delivery processes.
    • DIS range: digital solutions for public healthcare establishments. 215 sites are equipped with the DIS range, including 125 healthcare establishments (hospitals) and 90 medico-social establishments (mainly nursing homes). This range integrates the management of EPR (Electronic Patient Records), billing, accounting, business and financial management and HR management, including payroll management solutions. The suite also includes inventory and purchasing management, providing solutions for in-house pharmacies.

    These two activities have been integrated into the AXIGATE LINK Division, and will strengthen the HOSPILINK solution for Hospitals, Regional Hospital Groups (GHT) and specialised after-care and rehabilitation facilities and psychiatric facilities in France.

    Growth strategy in action
    This acquisition is fully in line with Equasens’ strategy for:

    • developing software solutions for public health establishments, a market with numerous renewal and equipment opportunities,
    • and strengthening the Group’s offering for both the private practice and hospital segments over the entire patient care pathway.

    The resulting technical and commercial synergies with the AXIGATE LINK Division’s existing solutions will be a major growth driver by optimising resources and accelerating innovation.

    This acquisition significantly reinforces the Group’s position as a key force in the transformation of the digital healthcare ecosystem, providing an even more precise and comprehensive solution for management and EPR (Electronic Patient Records) needs of healthcare establishments and their practitioners.

    An industrial growth model and future prospects
    The integration of these activities within the AXIGATE LINK Division reflects a clear industrial vision: to expand and complete its software offering for healthcare establishments by adding new technology building blocks to the AXIGATE LINK Division’s EPR solutions in various areas (accounting, billing, stock management and payroll).

    The short-term objective is to develop the new building blocks originating from the acquisition to be integrated into the existing AXIGATE LINK Division ranges: HOSPILINK (hospital), TITANLINK (nursing homes) and DOMILINK (home care). For ResUrgences, the aim is to strengthen this specialized range while integrating it into the HOSPILINK range as a full-fledged module.

    The medium-term objective is to create smooth, secure patient care pathways, by improving interoperability between the various services and users, based on our different solutions for institutions (emergency services, nursing homes, hospitals, hospital-at-home programmes, in-home nursing care services) and private healthcare practitioners (physicians, allied health professionals, pharmacies), by developing new functionalities based on artificial intelligence and data analysis, making it possible to retrieve information from patient records throughout the patient’s care pathway.

    Denis Supplisson, Chief Executive Officer of Equasens, commented: “This acquisition illustrates our determination to expand and diversify within our core business – software for both private practice and hospital healthcare professionals – by targeting opportunities that make industrial and economic sense. By integrating the ResUrgences and DIS ranges, we are combining the added value of our medico-social and healthcare offerings to meet the growing digital needs of healthcare establishments. Our goal is to become the technology partner of choice to support the transformation of the French healthcare system, by harnessing the potential of innovation to benefit people: improving the handling of administrative and medical tasks to save time for users.

    Grégoire de Rotalier, Deputy CEO of Equasens and Manager of the AXIGATE LINK Division, added: “For Equasens and the AXIGATE LINK Division, this quality acquisition significantly strengthens our presence in the public health sector, in terms of market share, expertise and product range. This acquisition further reinforces AXIGATE LINK’s strong position in the hospital, medico-social and home care sectors, and strengthens a team of 270 employees fully focused on serving 5,000 healthcare and medico-social establishment customers. ”

    Timetable and integration
    Operational integration of the teams and solutions will begin in Q3 2025, with a phased migration plan for customers to Equasens’ new technology platforms. Continuity of service is guaranteed throughout the transition period.

    Villers-lès-Nancy (France), 30 June 2025 – 06:00 PM (CET)

    PRESS RELEASE

    EQUASENS ACQUIRES DIS AND RESURGENCES BUSINESSES, STRENGTHENING ITS POSITION IN THE MARKET OF SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS FOR HEALTHCARE ESTABLISHMENTS.

    Strengthening the position of a leading provider of software solutions for hospitals and the medical-social sector

    • Transaction finalised: acquisition of Novaprove, publisher of ResUrgences software and the DIS business assets, (GESDIS, FACDIS, ARCADIS ranges)
    • Acquisition scope: more than 300 customers in the public healthcare sector, with annual revenue of around €5 million
    • The AXIGATE LINK Division strengthens its position in the market of software solutions for public healthcare establishments
    • Industrial synergies: The AXIGATE LINK Division expands its range of digital products and services for health and medico-social establishments.

    ***

    Equasens Group (Euronext Paris™ – Compartment B – FR 0012882389 -$EQS), announces the completion of the acquisition on July 1, 2025, by its AXIGATE LINK Division through its subsidiary Axigate, of two businesses specialising in solutions for the public healthcare sector from a French software solutions editor.

    This strategic acquisition which is a product of the exclusive negotiations announced on 30 April will contribute to Equasens’ goal to significantly strengthen its position in the hospital and medico-social software market, by creating a complete technology ecosystem to support the digital transformation of public and private establishments.

    Scope and impact of the acquisition
    The acquired business assets cover more than 300 customers in the public healthcare sector and generate annual sales of around €5m. They include:

    • ResUrgences (Novaprove): a cloud-based software platform specialising in the management of hospital emergency services, equipping 8 university hospitals (CHU) and a total of 75 customers. This functionally reliable and robust technological solution optimises the management of emergency department patient flows and care delivery processes.
    • DIS range: digital solutions for public healthcare establishments. 215 sites are equipped with the DIS range, including 125 healthcare establishments (hospitals) and 90 medico-social establishments (mainly nursing homes). This range integrates the management of EPR (Electronic Patient Records), billing, accounting, business and financial management and HR management, including payroll management solutions. The suite also includes inventory and purchasing management, providing solutions for in-house pharmacies.

    These two activities have been integrated into the AXIGATE LINK Division, and will strengthen the HOSPILINK solution for Hospitals, Regional Hospital Groups (GHT) and specialised after-care and rehabilitation facilities and psychiatric facilities in France.

    Growth strategy in action
    This acquisition is fully in line with Equasens’ strategy for:

    • developing software solutions for public health establishments, a market with numerous renewal and equipment opportunities,
    • and strengthening the Group’s offering for both the private practice and hospital segments over the entire patient care pathway.

    The resulting technical and commercial synergies with the AXIGATE LINK Division’s existing solutions will be a major growth driver by optimising resources and accelerating innovation.

    This acquisition significantly reinforces the Group’s position as a key force in the transformation of the digital healthcare ecosystem, providing an even more precise and comprehensive solution for management and EPR (Electronic Patient Records) needs of healthcare establishments and their practitioners.

    An industrial growth model and future prospects
    The integration of these activities within the AXIGATE LINK Division reflects a clear industrial vision: to expand and complete its software offering for healthcare establishments by adding new technology building blocks to the AXIGATE LINK Division’s EPR solutions in various areas (accounting, billing, stock management and payroll).

    The short-term objective is to develop the new building blocks originating from the acquisition to be integrated into the existing AXIGATE LINK Division ranges: HOSPILINK (hospital), TITANLINK (nursing homes) and DOMILINK (home care). For ResUrgences, the aim is to strengthen this specialized range while integrating it into the HOSPILINK range as a full-fledged module.

    The medium-term objective is to create smooth, secure patient care pathways, by improving interoperability between the various services and users, based on our different solutions for institutions (emergency services, nursing homes, hospitals, hospital-at-home programmes, in-home nursing care services) and private healthcare practitioners (physicians, allied health professionals, pharmacies), by developing new functionalities based on artificial intelligence and data analysis, making it possible to retrieve information from patient records throughout the patient’s care pathway.

    Denis Supplisson, Chief Executive Officer of Equasens, commented: “This acquisition illustrates our determination to expand and diversify within our core business – software for both private practice and hospital healthcare professionals – by targeting opportunities that make industrial and economic sense. By integrating the ResUrgences and DIS ranges, we are combining the added value of our medico-social and healthcare offerings to meet the growing digital needs of healthcare establishments. Our goal is to become the technology partner of choice to support the transformation of the French healthcare system, by harnessing the potential of innovation to benefit people: improving the handling of administrative and medical tasks to save time for users.

    Grégoire de Rotalier, Deputy CEO of Equasens and Manager of the AXIGATE LINK Division, added: “For Equasens and the AXIGATE LINK Division, this quality acquisition significantly strengthens our presence in the public health sector, in terms of market share, expertise and product range. This acquisition further reinforces AXIGATE LINK’s strong position in the hospital, medico-social and home care sectors, and strengthens a team of 270 employees fully focused on serving 5,000 healthcare and medico-social establishment customers. ”

    Timetable and integration
    Operational integration of the teams and solutions will begin in Q3 2025, with a phased migration plan for customers to Equasens’ new technology platforms. Continuity of service is guaranteed throughout the transition period.

  • MIL-OSI: XRP News: Convert XRP To Fiat and Instantly Send To Any Bank Account In The World With Remittix

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    New York, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fresh XRP news shows the token now has a 95% chance of ETF approval in 2025, up from 75% just weeks ago. Bloomberg analysts say recent talks with the SEC have been “very positive,” which marks a big shift in how digital assets are viewed.

    But while XRP waits, Remittix is already delivering. This rising PayFi project lets users convert XRP and other cryptos to fiat and send them instantly to any bank account worldwide. Its presale has raised over $15.8M, and with nearly 20,000 investors on board, many see it as XRP’s natural next step.

    This might just be the project that picks up where XRP left off and runs with it.

    Remittix Makes Crypto Payments as Easy as Sending a Text

    Sending money with crypto shouldn’t feel like rocket science, and with Remittix, it doesn’t. This platform lets you convert XRP (and other crypto) to fiat and send it straight to any bank account in the world, fast. No banks. No waiting days. No mystery fees.

    Everything’s instant, transparent, and works like it should. Remittix cuts out the middlemen, keeps costs super low, and even helps people in places where traditional banking is a mess. Whether you’re paying someone abroad, sending money home, or running a remote team, it just works.

    Source: Remittix

    It even supports stablecoins to dodge the usual crypto swings, and every transaction is recorded on the blockchain, so nothing gets lost or reversed. In short, Remittix makes sending money feel as easy as texting your friends, just way more useful.

    And yeah, it’s about time someone got this right.

    Over $15.8M Raised: Why Investors Are Calling It “XRP 2.0”

    While XRP news about a possible ETF has sparked fresh interest in Ripple, some investors are already looking ahead, and they’re calling Remittix the real evolution.

    The numbers don’t lie: Remittix has raised over $15.8 million in its presale and sold more than 546 million $RTX tokens. The price has already climbed from $0.0734 to $0.0781, with each round moving it higher. People who got in early? They’re already seeing green.

    Source: Remittix

    But this isn’t just about price. Investors are backing Remittix because it actually solves a problem, making international payments faster, cheaper, and way more accessible. No hype. No gimmicks. Just a project built on real-world utility.

    With nearly 20,000 investors on board, the momentum is clear. And with Remittix picking up where XRP started, but with fewer roadblocks, it’s easy to see why people are calling it “XRP 2.0.”

    Real Use Case, Real Tech: How Remittix Is Built for Mass Adoption

    Remittix is built to solve a real problem. The platform makes it easy to convert crypto into local fiat and send it straight to bank accounts, especially in regions where access to traditional banking is limited.

    Is Remittix the Next XRP?! New 10X Potential Crypto?!

    The $RTX token isn’t just for trading, either. It powers the ecosystem by unlocking fee discounts, giving users priority access, and soon, governance rights.

    It’s designed for everyday use, not speculation. That’s why more people are paying attention, because Remittix is made to last, not just moon.

    Conclusion

    With XRP ETF approval looking more likely than ever, crypto payments are entering a new era. But while XRP waits, Remittix is already delivering. Fast transfers, real utility, and over $15.8M raised, it’s clear investors see the future here. Don’t miss your chance to get in early.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    New York, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sending crypto still feels way harder than it should. And it doesn’t matter if it’s Ethereum, Solana, or Dogecoin, you’ve got gas fees, delays, weird addresses. Plus, there’s a whole fiat thing if someone needs actual cash.

    Well, Remittix just fixed all that.

    Their new crypto wallet makes sending crypto feel like sending a text. You can move ETH, SOL, DOGE, and more, and even send it straight to a bank account, no matter where the person is. Fast, simple, and no middlemen. This could seriously change the game for crypto payments.

    A Wallet That Works Across Ethereum, Solana, Dogecoin and More

    If you’re tired of juggling different wallets for different coins, Remittix has your back. The new wallet lets you manage Ethereum, Solana, Dogecoin, and a bunch of other cryptos all in one simple place.

    Source: Remittix

    It’s built with serious security, works across devices, and doesn’t rely on some sketchy centralized server that might go down. Everything stays private, fast, and smooth.

  • MIL-OSI USA: After Trump’s Illegal & Unconstitutional Bombings in Iran, Duckworth Votes to Block Further Use of Military Force Without Congressional Authorization

    US Senate News:

    Source: United States Senator for Illinois Tammy Duckworth
    June 27, 2025
    [WASHINGTON, D.C.] – Combat Veteran and U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL)—a member of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee—issued the following statement today after voting for an Iran war powers resolution that would force the President to secure a declaration of war or authorization for use of military force from Congress to legally engage in a war against Iran. Senate Republicans blocked the resolution, which failed on a 53-47 vote. 
    “Ever since Donald Trump illegally launched a military strike against Iran, one thing has remained clear: our troops are at greater risk today than they were before the attack.
    “Our servicemembers will always execute their orders and complete their missions to the highest standard like the experts they are. But rather than declaring ‘mission accomplished,’ the Trump Administration should be focused on protecting them and American personnel in the region and convincing Congress to authorize its use of military force. We’re not sure these strikes actually halted the Iranian program yet, and it is unacceptable that the Administration sought to thwart members of Congress from performing their most solemn Constitutional duty: debating matters of war and peace.”
    “If Trump wants to honor our troops, he needs to come before Congress immediately to consult with the democratically elected representatives of our military, their family members and the American citizens before making decisions that risk the lives of our servicemembers, cost billions of taxpayer dollars and threaten to mire us in yet another quagmire in the Middle East. That is one of the reasons why I supported today’s resolution, which would force debate and a vote on whether to engage in acts of war against Iran—as Article I of our Constitution lays out. By blocking this resolution, Senate Republicans are once again making clear they would much rather bow down to Trump than putting our national security and the best interests of our servicemembers first.”

  • MIL-OSI USA: Lower Gas Prices Just in Time for Summer Holiday Travel

    US Senate News:

    Source: US Whitehouse
    Gas prices are falling as millions of Americans hit the road for the holiday weekend.
    According to CNBC, “gas is the cheapest it’s ever been.” Inflation-adjusted gas prices “are near the lowest levels we’ve seen in the last 20 years” — and with rising incomes, “Americans are actually spending far less of their income on energy than they have in quite some time.”
    The good news is being felt across the nation:
    Tupelo, Mississippi: “If you’re driving, you could be in for a pleasant surprise at the pump.”
    New York City, New York: “It looks like gas prices are about to get cheaper.”
    Toledo, Ohio: “Summer gas prices are at a surprising four-year low.”
    Columbia, South Carolina: “If you’re planning to hit the road ahead of the 4th of July weekend, gas prices are currently the lowest that they’ve been since 2021.”
    Jacksonville, Florida: “Some good news for gas prices — they continue to fall ahead of the 4th of July holiday.”
    Macon, Georgia: “If you’re planning to travel this week, gas prices in our area are down. They’re the lowest that we’ve seen this time since 2021.”
    The Arizona Republic:“Arizona motorists are seeing a relatively cheap summer at the gas pump, despite recent conflicts abroad.Oil prices have fluctuated since the start of the Israel-Iran war earlier this month. But gas prices have remained relatively steady across the nation — and have largely declined in Arizona.”
    GasBuddy: Gas Prices to Fall to Lowest July 4th Level Since 2021 as Middle East Tensions Cool
    CNN: “They’re pretty low — and they’re trending lower … This would be the lowest on Fourth of July for gas since at least 2021 — perhaps even since 2020 during COVID. Of course, people are making more money, on average, than they did back then, so on an inflation-adjusted basis, gasoline is swallowing up a smaller and smaller chunk of paychecks.”
    ABC News: “Most people traveling right now are traveling by road. Gas prices — $3.18/gallon right now, that’s the national average for regular unleaded. Last year, that was $3.49/gallon — so significantly lower.”
    CNBC: “As Americans gear up for summer travel, prices at the pump may be cooling off. This summer could bring the lowest gas prices in years.”
    The New York Times: “Summer road trips appear to be safe from a big spike in gasoline prices … The last time the cost for drivers was lower in late June was in 2021.”
    The Wall Street Journal: “The national average for a gallon of regular gasoline, $3.21, is about 23 cents cheaper than this time last year … Reduced prices would be a boon for consumers during the warmer months when Americans drive more. Low energy prices so far this year have already contributed to the economy’s resilience and helped keep inflation in check.”
    NBC News: “Looking at gas prices that are the best in four years — and this is so important for all of those millions of people who will be hitting the roads … 20 cents less than it was a year ago, so that’s six or seven bucks extra when you fill up. That’s real money.”
    Fox Business: “Summer gas prices hit lowest level in 4 years despite Middle East tensions”

    Davenport, IA – From May 19 – June 20, U.S. Marshals from the Southern District of Iowa, Northern District of Iowa, and Central District of Illinois, joined forces with law enforcement officers from the Scott County Sheriff’s Office, Bettendorf Police Department, and Iowa Department of Corrections to conduct a five-week long fugitive operation in Scott County, Iowa, and surrounding communities.  

    The local operation dubbed “Operation River Run”  (ORR) resulted in the arrests of 52 fugitives wanted on outstanding local, state, and/or federal arrest warrants.  Each of the individuals arrested during Operation River Run had pending criminal charges for crimes involving homicide, guns, drugs, assaults, sex offenses, or other crimes of violence and/or criminal histories of convictions for such crimes. 

    Operation River Run was divided into three phases- from May 19-June 1, participating agencies selected arrest warrants to work during the enforcement phase of the operation and began developing credible information as to the whereabouts of the fugitives. From June 2-4, three teams of law enforcement officers representing 11 local, state and federal law enforcement agencies participated in the three-day enforcement phase. During the follow-up phase from June 5-20, ORR investigators continued to locate and arrest several additional individuals not previously located during the enforcement phase. Most of these individuals were arrested in Scott County and Rock Island County, Illinois, while the arrest of others spanned between Sioux City Iowa and Chicago Illinois.

    “In our work with local, state, and federal agencies, our commitment to serving the community remains unchanged,” said Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal for the Southern District of Iowa George Mavromatis. “We are all devoted to honoring our oaths of office and tirelessly working to combat violent crime in our communities. The achievements of Operation River Run highlight our shared dedication to collaboration among all professionals in the Southern District of Iowa.” 

    The Southern Iowa Fugitive Task Force- Davenport Division is composed of the following federal, state and local agencies: U.S. Marshals Service, Des Moines County Sheriff’s Office, Burlington Police Department, Fort Madison Police Department, Lee County Sheriff’s Office, Ottumwa Police Department, Iowa Department of Corrections Fugitive Team, Coralville Police Department, and Iowa Division of Criminal Investigations.

  • MIL-OSI: BexBack Unveils Limited NO KYC,100x Leverage and 100% Deposit Bonus Match to Empower Crypto Futures Traders

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SINGAPORE, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As Bitcoin hovers near the $100,000 mark and market volatility intensifies, BexBack Exchange has announced a new limited-time promotional campaign designed to help traders maximize their potential returns. Starting today, all new users who deposit and complete one trade within seven days will receive a $50 USDT-M welcome bonus, along with a 100% deposit, match to double their trading capital. Combined with up to 100x leverage and zero KYC requirements, this promotion positions BexBack as a powerful entry point for both beginners and advanced futures traders navigating today’s unpredictable crypto landscape.

    Advantages of 100x Leverage Crypto Futures

    1. Amplified Profits: Control large positions with a small amount of capital, capturing more profits from market fluctuations.
    2. Low Capital Requirement: Participate in high-value trades with minimal investment, lowering the entry barrier.
    3. Increased Market Opportunities: Profit quickly from price fluctuations, especially in volatile markets.
    4. High Capital Efficiency: Leverage enables better use of your capital, expanding your investment potential.
    5. Profit from Both Up and Down Markets: Adapt to any market conditions, with opportunities to profit whether the market goes up or down.

    What Is 100x Leverage and How Does It Work?

    Simply put, 100x leverage allows you to open larger trading positions with less capital. For example:

    Suppose the Bitcoin price is $100,000 that day, and you open a long contract with 1 BTC. After using 100x leverage, the transaction amount is equivalent to 100 BTC.

    One day later, if the price rises to $105,000, your profit will be (105,000 – 100,000) * 100 BTC / 100,000 = 5 BTC, a yield of up to 500%.

    With BexBack’s deposit bonus

    BexBack offers a 100% deposit bonus. If the initial investment is 2 BTC, the profit will increase to 10 BTC, and the return on investment will double to 1000%.

    Note: Although leveraged trading can magnify profits, you also need to be wary of liquidation risks.

    How Does the 100% Deposit Bonus Work?
    The deposit bonus from BexBack cannot be directly withdrawn but can be used to open larger positions and increase potential profits. Additionally, during significant market fluctuations, the bonus can serve as extra margin, effectively reducing the risk of liquidation.
