Here’s a quick recap of the crypto landscape for Friday (November 14) as of 9:00 p.m. UTC.

Get the latest insights on Bitcoin, Ether and altcoins, along with a round-up of key cryptocurrency market news.

Bitcoin and Ether price update

Bitcoin (BTC) was priced at US$94,223.98, a 4 percent increase in 24 hours and its lowest valuation of the day. Its highest was US$97,203.84.

Bitcoin price performance, November 14, 2025.

Bitcoin’s drop below US$95,000 on Friday, driven by expiring derivatives, whale selling, and weak institutional and retail demand, has intensified fears of an entrenched bear market.

Analysts predict Q4 could be Bitcoin’s “worst fourth quarter on record.’

On X, analyst @follis_ notes that the Wyckoff Distribution model, a classic five phase pattern typically observed near market tops and often precursor to prolonged selling pressure, could signal a potential end to Bitcoin’s bull run.

The pattern suggests that after a buying climax near US$122,000 and a sequence of tests failing to create new highs, the price entered a markdown phase. Bitcoin could drop to US$86,000 if key support levels fail to hold.

Meanwhile, Ether (ETH) was priced at US$3,129.77, a 1.6 percent decrease in the last 24 hours. Its lowest valuation of the day was US$3,131.31, while its highest was US$3,246.27.

Altcoin price update

  • Solana (SOL) was priced at US$139.74, down by 1.9 percent over the last 24 hours. Its lowest valuation of the day was US$138.83, while its highest was US$143.61.
  • XRP was trading for US$2.27, down by 1.5 percent over the last 24 hours. Its lowest valuation of the day was US$2.26, while its highest was US$2.33.

Fear and Greed Index snapshot

Bitcoin’s bearish trajectory has pushed market sentiment into extreme fear. As of today, CMC’s Crypto Fear & Greed Index continues to trend in extreme fear territory with the indicator sitting at 22, marking the lowest levels of investor confidence since March and signaling that traders are highly cautious about entering the market.

Derivatives data

Bitcoin and Ether futures markets saw a wave of long-side liquidations in the hours leading up to the end of the trading day, signaling trader capitulation amid continued price weakness. Roughly US$65.24 million in Bitcoin positions were liquidated over a four hour window, with the bulk coming from longs. Ether followed a similar pattern, registering US$22.13 million in liquidations, again concentrated among leveraged long positions.

The liquidations coincided with a clear contraction in open interest, suggesting that traders not only endured forced unwinds but also reduced overall exposure. Bitcoin open interest slipped 2.3 percent to US$66.05 billion, while Ether open interest saw a sharper 3.8 percent decline to US$36.31 billion.

Funding rates stayed positive — 0.007 for Bitcoin and 0.012 for Ether — indicating that the futures market remained slightly tilted toward bullish positioning despite the shakeout.

However, Bitcoin’s relative strength index sat at a notably low 27.33, entering the oversold zone and hinting that derivatives pressure may have pushed the market toward a possible short-term exhaustion point.

Taken together, the metrics point to forced deleveraging rather than a broad directional shift, though sustained weakness in open interest could temper near-term volatility once liquidation volumes normalize.

Today’s crypto news to know

Saylor denies reports of Bitcoin selloff

Strategy’s (NASDAQ:MSTR) Michael Saylor took to X on Friday to debunk reports that the company has reduced its Bitcoin holdings by roughly 47,000 BTC.

“I think the volatility comes with the territory,” he reiterated in a CNBC interview that day. “If you’re going to be a Bitcoin investor, you need a four-year time horizon and you need to be prepared to handle the volatility in this market.”

An earlier post from @Crypto Crib claims that the company had offloaded over 30,000 BTC; however, community-supplied context clarifies that 22,704 BTC were moved on October 31, and that these transfers were internal custody movements, not open-market sales.

Tether expanding commodity lending

In an interview with Bloomberg, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said the company is ‘expanding its presence in commodity lending,’ noting that the focus going forward will include traditional commodity trades like agriculture and oil managed under its new Trade Finance unit, which provides short-term credit for global supply chains.

The company has lent roughly US$1.5 billion in credit to commodities traders so far.

Alibaba builds tokenized payment system

Alibaba Grou Holding (NYSE:BABA) is developing a stablecoin-like system to streamline cross-border payments for its US$35 billion e-commerce network, aiming for a year-end launch.

The tokenized platform will initially support US dollars and euros, and will include further plans to expand to additional currencies using JPMorgan’s tokenization technology.

Under the system, artificial intelligence-driven smart contracts will automate settlements, dispute resolution, and conditional fund releases to reduce friction in B2B transactions. The system will operate alongside Alibaba’s Agentic Pay rail to enhance speed and transparency.

While not a formal stablecoin, the solution acts as a fiat-backed digital token for settlement purposes.

UAE tightens crypto access

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has enacted a new central bank law that broadens licensing requirements for financial services, effectively criminalizing unlicensed crypto activity. Article 170 imposes penalties, including fines up to AED 500 million (US$136 million) and imprisonment, for offering financial products without authorization.

Self-custody tools, such as Bitcoin wallets, blockchain explorers, and market-data services, now fall under the licensing net, creating compliance challenges for providers inside and outside the UAE.

Article 61 further restricts promotion, marketing, or publication of unlicensed financial activities, affecting even online communications. Companies have a one year window to comply, subject to central bank discretion.

Uniswap introduces continuous clearing auctions

Uniswap introduced continuous clearing auctions on Thursday (November 13), a new protocol aiming to facilitate token offerings through its infrastructure. The company said that the protocol will help teams ‘bootstrap liquidity on Uniswap v4 and find the market price for new and low-liquidity tokens,’ adding that several additional tools currently under development will eventually be added to help projects launch and deepen token liquidity on the platform.

Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: SYH ) (OTCQX: SYHBF ) (Frankfurt: SC1P ) (‘Skyharbour’, ‘SYH’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive repurchase agreement (the ‘Strategic Agreement’) with Denison Mines Corp. (‘Denison’ or ‘DML’) whereby Denison will acquire an initial project interest in Skyharbour’s Russell Lake Uranium Project (‘Russell’ or the ‘Project’) and the parties have agreed to enter into four separate joint venture agreements at closing on various claims making up Russell (the ‘Transaction’). The Project is strategically located in the central portion of the Eastern Athabasca Basin of northern Saskatchewan, with access to regional infrastructure, including an all-weather road and powerline.

Russell Lake Project Location Map:
http://www.skyharbourltd.com/_resources/images/2025-11-14%20SKY-RussellLake-Updated.jpg

Highlights:

  • Strategic Agreement represents combined total project consideration of up to CAD $61.5 million consisting of cash or share payments to Skyharbour totalling up to $21.5 million (including $18.0 million before year end) plus expenditures totalling up to $40.0 million for Denison to acquire between a 20% and 70% ownership interest over seven years in the claims making up Russell, with Skyharbour owning the remaining interests.
  • Denison (TSX: DML; NYSE American: DNN), a leading uranium mining company with a market capitalization of over $3 billion, is developing the Wheeler River Project (‘Wheeler River’), which shares a 55 kilometre border with Russell. Denison is an existing, large corporate shareholder of Skyharbour and now joins the Company as a strategic, active, funding partner at Russell.
  • The Project will be divided into four different joint ventures, including Russell Lake (‘RL’), Getty East, Wheeler North, and the Wheeler River Inlier Claims, of which Skyharbour will retain initial ownership interests of 80%, 70%, 51%, and 30%, respectively. Denison can then earn up to a 70% interest in the Wheeler North and Getty East properties through option agreements.
  • The technical teams of Denison and Skyharbour will work cooperatively to advance and unlock value across the joint ventures, employing top-tier exploration and development expertise in the region.
  • Denison has committed to a minimum of $4 million in exploration expenditures over the first two years at Wheeler North and Getty East combined, as well as agreeing to fund to maintain its pro-rata 20% participation interest in the RL claims through 2029 up until such time that total exploration expenditures on the property reach $10 million.
  • Skyharbour to remain operator with an 80% ownership interest at the RL claims comprising over 53,192 hectares of the original 73,314 hectare Russell Lake Project. The Company will also act as operator during the first earn-in at Getty East with Denison sole funding the exploration in order to fulfill the earn-in option criteria.
  • Skyharbour to benefit with a substantial financial commitment from Denison before year end to help fund its uranium exploration and corporate activities through 2026. The Company will also generate revenue from its operator fee at the McGowan Lake exploration camp at the Project.
  • Skyharbour will continue to directly advance its high-grade Moore Uranium project as well as the RL claims at Russell, while partner companies fund exploration at some of the Company’s other projects.

Jordan Trimble, President and CEO of Skyharbour, stated: ‘This is a transformative transaction for Skyharbour and our shareholders as it represents a major stamp of approval for Russell with up to $61.5 million in combined project consideration coming in. We are very pleased to expand upon our long-standing relationship with Denison and to partner with their team to advance one of the more prospective exploration projects in the Athabasca Basin proximal to existing and developing mines. Denison’s success in exploring, permitting, and developing the neighboring world-class Wheeler River Project will provide considerable insight and experience as we jointly pursue success at Russell. Further, this transaction delivers on our belief that Russell should be treated as multiple different projects due to the abundance of targets and sheer scale of the land package in one of the most prolific uranium exploration corridors in the world. The structure and terms of the Strategic Agreement allow Skyharbour to continue exploring as operator at the majority of the claims at Russell, while participating in the future success that Denison seeks as operator at the Wheeler North and Wheeler River Inlier claims. Furthermore, we will receive a significant amount of cash and Denison shares to help fund our exploration efforts and corporate activities through 2026.’

David Cates, President and CEO of Denison, further commented: ‘As Denison nears receipt of final regulatory approvals for the Phoenix In-Situ Recovery mine proposed for our flagship Wheeler River property, we are also making measured investments in our project pipeline – including our next development assets and high-potential exploration properties. Given its proximity to Wheeler River, Denison has had an interest in adding Russell to our property portfolio for much of my nearly two decades with the Company. This transaction achieves that objective by providing Denison with the opportunity to lead and participate in exploration efforts across four newly created joint ventures, which are designed to drive collaboration between Denison and Skyharbour’s technical teams. We are excited to build on our long-standing relationship with Skyharbour and accelerate the evaluation of this exceptional package of highly prospective ground.’

Reorganization of the Russell Lake Project:

Upon closing of the Strategic Agreement, Denison will earn an initial project interest in each of the four new Russell exploration projects including a 49% interest in the Wheeler North claims, a 20% interest in the RL claims, a 30% interest in the Getty East claims, and a 70% interest in the Wheeler River Inlier claims.

  1. Wheeler North (51% SYH, 49% DML ; subject to additional earn-in options ) : The yellow claims in the map above represent 16,409 hectares over eight claims. The claims host some of the exploration targets located proximal to Wheeler River, including the Grayling and Fork Zones. Upon closing of the Transaction, Denison will have the option to increase its interest in Wheeler North to a 70% interest in these claims and Denison will become the operator of Wheeler North as described in more detail below.
  2. Russell Lake or RL (80% SYH, 20% DML) : The pink claims in the map above represent 53,192 hectares over 16 claims. These claims are located north and west of Skyharbour’s Moore Project and host numerous exploration target areas including Christie Lake, NE Russell, Blue Steel, Taylor Bay, South Russell, and Kowalchuk Lake. In order to maintain its initial interest in RL, Denison has agreed to fund its pro rata share of up to a maximum of C$10.0 million in total project expenditures. Upon the closing of the Transaction, Skyharbour will remain operator of RL.
  3. Wheeler River Inliers (30% SYH, 70% DML) . The blue claims in the map above represent 608 hectares over two claims. These are inlier claims within Denison’s Wheeler River project hosting the West Russell and C-Block exploration target areas. DML will become operator of the Wheeler River Inliers.
  4. Getty East (70% SYH, 30% DML ; subject to additional earn-in options ) . The green claim in the map above representing 3,105 hectares is host to the Little Man Lake exploration prospect. The claim borders Cameco’s Cree Zimmer property which holds its Key Lake operations to the south.  Upon the closing of the Transaction, Skyharbour will remain operator of Getty East; however, Denison will have the option to become the operator and acquire up to a 70% interest in this joint venture as described in more detail below.

Transaction Details:

The consideration payment will consist of a $2 million cash payment immediately upon execution of the Strategic Agreement (the ‘Upfront Payment’), and deferred consideration of $16 million (the ‘Deferred Consideration’) payable on or before December 31 st , 2025.

The Deferred Consideration shall be payable in two tranches, each of which may be paid in cash or shares of Denison at Denison’s election, including $8 million on or before the fifth business day prior to December 21 st , 2025, and another $8 million within 10 days of December 21 st , 2025. Closing of the transaction (‘Closing’) is expected to occur on or before December 21 st , 2025.

The current exploration camp at McGowan Lake on the Project will continue to be operated by Skyharbour and an administrative fee will be payable by Denison to Skyharbour. The claims comprising Russell are subject to various existing underlying royalties to other parties.

The Transaction is subject to customary approvals, including Skyharbour obtaining TSX Venture Exchange approval. The Transaction will be considered a Reviewable Transaction under TSX Venture Exchange policies as David Cates is a director of both Denison and Skyharbour.

Russell Lake Uranium Project Overview:

The Russell Lake Project is a large, advanced-stage uranium exploration property totalling 73,314 hectares strategically located between Cameco’s Key Lake and McArthur River Projects, and adjoining Denison’s Wheeler River Project to the west and Skyharbour’s Moore Uranium Project to the east. The northern extension of Highway 914 between Key Lake and McArthur River runs through the western extent of the property and greatly enhances accessibility, while a high-voltage powerline is situated alongside this road.

Skyharbour’s New 80% Owned RL Project:

The claims making up the RL Project constitute over seventy percent of the original Russell project area and will continue to be explored by Skyharbour as the operator and 80% owner. Denison will acquire a 20% interest and has agreed to fund to maintain its pro-rata participation interest in the RL claims through December 31 st , 2029, or until such time that total expenditures on the properties have reached $10 million.

The RL claims have numerous highly prospective targets that Skyharbour will continue to advance. The Christie Lake target area contains basement-hosted uranium mineralization with historical drilling returning 0.17% U 3 O 8 over 0.4 metres at 436.4 metres depth in hole CL-10-03, hosted within a strongly hematized breccia. A prospective clay altered basement fault system runs throughout this area.

The Blue Steel target area comprises graphitic metasediments that were last drilled in 2008. The full extent of the graphitic corridor remains unknown and completely untested. Historical geophysics indicate potential faulting along this corridor, highlighting it as a priority area for follow-up work using modern geophysical methods to refine drill targets.

The Kowalchuk area, situated within the southern Russell claims, is another prospective area on the RL claims, with multiple inferred structural trends passing through it. This area has seen only limited modern geophysical coverage to date.

In addition to the aforementioned target areas, there are many kilometres of untested EM conductors on the RL claims underlain by rocks of low magnetic intensity, suggestive of the presence of prospective graphitic meta-pelitic basement lithologies typical of Athabasca-style uranium systems. With limited modern exploration conducted over the past 12 years, the RL claims remain underexplored and highly prospective for both expanding known mineralized zones and making new discoveries.

Brunswick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: BRW, OTCQB: BRWXF; ‘ BRW ‘ or the ‘ Company ‘) is pleased to announce inaugural drilling results from its Anatacau Main Project, located in the Eeyou Istchee-James Bay region of Quebec. All drillholes were centered on the Anais showing and intercepted multiple, large spodumene-bearing pegmatites with rich lithium mineralization. The pegmatites are found along a major deformation corridor, reminiscent of the neighboring Galaxy deposit owned by Rio Tinto located 22 kilometers to the West.

Highlights include:

  • 1.66% Li2O over 47.2 meters in drill hole AN-25-05 within a larger package of continuous lithium mineralization (present within both country rock and pegmatites) of 120.7 meters at 1.31% Li2O .
  • Very high cesium values intercepted in multiple secondary sub-parallel dykes including 1.46% Cs2O over 1 meter and 0.8% Cs2O over 1 meter.
  • This latest discovery is now drill traced over 170 meters of strike length and is open in all directions.

Mr. Killian Charles, President and CEO of BRW, commented: ‘Today’s exciting results underscores the opportunities across our continuously growing portfolio. We are rapidly starting to define a sizeable lithium system at Anatacau Main which, importantly, remains open in all directions. Furthermore, we are seeing mineralization constrained to the same structural corridor that is found at Rio Tinto’s Galaxy project (54.3Mt M&I at 1.30% Li2O and 55.9Mt Inferred at 1.29%, see Note ) and BRW’s Anatacau West. At Anatacau Main, we control over 18 kilometers of this highly prospective corridor which will be the focus of subsequent work in Q1 2026.

Between these strong results at Anatacau, a forthcoming maiden resource estimate for Mirage, an inaugural drill campaign in Greenland and further growth opportunities beyond the existing portfolio, Brunswick Exploration is among the most exciting companies in the lithium exploration space.’

Results Interpretation

The largest pegmatite outcrop observed at the Anais showing has now been extended to over 170 meters in strike length and to a maximum depth of 98 meters. It remains open in all direction with an apparent thickness of 47.2 meters (DDH AN-25-05) at its widest point. The main pegmatite dyke is interpreted to be dipping 85 degrees to the West. Several other, well-mineralized stacked pegmatite intervals were also intercepted in all holes, demonstrating the potential for more dyke discoveries in the vicinity of the outcrop (Figure 1). The mineralized dykes discovered at Anatacau straddle the southern side of an interpreted major deformation zone, striking northwest-southeast; a structural control that is reminiscent of the Galaxy deposit (Figure 2). The different pegmatite dykes appear to be oriented North-South to Northeast-Southwest.

The pegmatite dykes show excellent continuity in terms and mineralogy and grade, with several high-grade zones intersected to date (Table 1, Figure 3). The mineralized pegmatite dykes typically exhibit massive to coarse crystals (15+centimeters) with a mineralogy consisting of quartz, white K-feldspar, plagioclase, white spodumene, and minor amounts of muscovite, fine-grained tourmaline, and blue apatite. Spodumene crystals are inclusion-free and are consistently white unlike spodumene mineralization found at the Galaxy deposit and Anatacau West which varies from off-white to greenish. Some pegmatite intervals are under the cut-off of 0.3% Li2O but demonstrate high values of tantalum and cesium (up to 1.46% Cs2O in a 1 meter interval). This highlights the potential for other types of mineralization and by-products at the Anatacau Main project, a feature uncommon in other James Bay projects.

Host rocks consist of greywacke and amphibolite, locally deformed into schist near the deformation zone where pegmatites seem to propagate well into both units. Holmquistite, a lithium amphibole, is commonly observed in all host rocks at varying concentrations (up to 1.5% Li2O in host rock) over significant widths. This pervasive lithium alteration is potentially indicative of significant lithium bearing fluids along the deformation corridor and could be potentially used as a vectoring tool for further discoveries.

A geometallurgical study is underway at SGS using DMS (Dense Media Separation) with results expected early in 2026.

Anatacau Drilling Campaign Overview

Six (6) diamond drill holes were completed (see Figure 1 and Table 2) for a total of 750 meters. The holes were spaced by 55 to 100m, and all holes intercepted mineralized pegmatites.

The aim of the 2025 drilling campaign was to test at shallow depths (less than 150 meters vertical depth) the pegmatite dykes mapped at surface on the Anaïs showing. The drilling campaign was performed in HQ size to perform a geometallurgical study, planned according to a grant from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests of the Quebec Government.

Brunswick Exploration discovered the Anais showing in 2023, which consists of several parallel pegmatite dykes with visible spodumene mineralization. The largest dyke found to date is exposed over a 15 m wide by 100m long outcrop. Several grab samples returned high grade values ranging from1.19 to 3.83% Li2O on the outcrop itself (see press release dated July 13, 2023). The Anais lithium discovery is located 22 kilometers East and along strike from Rio Tinto’s Galaxy project and BRW’s Anatacau West project.

QAQC

All drill core samples were collected under the supervision of BRW employees and contractors. The drill core was transported by helicopter to the logging facility at camp Wabamisk. and by truck from the drill platform to the core logging Each core was then logged, photographed, tagged, and then packed to be shipped to Val-d’Or. Core splitting by diamond saw and sampling was done by BRW contractor at their Val-d’Or facility. All pegmatite intervals were sampled at approximately 1m intervals to ensure representativity, excluding all host rock material. Host rock was also sent for analysis 1m before and after each pegmatite interval. Samples were bagged, and blanks, pulp duplicates and certified reference materials for lithium were inserted at regular intervals. Groups of samples were placed in larger bags, sealed with numbered tags, in order to maintain a chain of custody. The sample bags were transported from BRW contractor facility to the Agat laboratory in Val-d’Or. All sample preparation and analytical work was performed by Agat Laboratories. Samples were crushed in order for 75% of the material to pass through a 2mm screen (method 200075), split to a sub-sample of 250g, and the split sample pulverized (200087) to obtain more than 85% of the material passing a 75µm screen. A sub-sample of the pulverized fraction was dissolved in a sodium peroxide solution, prior to lithium analysis by ICP-OES and ICP-MS according to the Agat method 201378. All results passed the QA/QC screening at the laboratory, and all inserted standard, duplicates and blanks returned results that were within acceptable limits. All reported drill intersections are calculated on the basis of a lower cutoff grade of 0.30% Li2O.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced new efforts to ‘clean up’ the nation’s energy sector amid a corruption scandal and near-constant attacks from Russia.

Zelenskyy met with Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko on Sunday morning, saying he called on lawmakers to revamp the leadership at the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate and the State Energy Supervision Inspectorate, in addition to other efforts to expunge Russian influence in the sector.

‘In full coordination with law enforcement and anti-corruption bodies, ensure the renewal of the Asset Recovery and Management Agency and to promptly complete the competition for the position of Head of ARMA so that the new Head of the Agency can be selected by the end of this year,’ Zelenskyy wrote on X.

He further called on lawmakers to ‘promptly conduct an audit and prepare for sale the assets and shares in assets that belonged to Russian entities and to collaborators who fled to Russia. All such assets must operate one hundred percent in Ukraine’s interests – to support our defense and to contribute to Ukraine’s budget.’

The new energy initiative also comes after a former associate of Zelenskyy’s was accused of being the mastermind behind a $100 million embezzlement scheme involving nuclear energy.

Tymur Mindich, who was once Zelenskyy’s business partner, was identified by Ukraine’s anti-corruption watchdogs as being the orchestrator of a scheme involving top officials and Ukraine’s state nuclear power company. Prior to the scandal, some feared Mindich’s growing influence over Ukraine’s lucrative industries that he had access to because of his ties to Zelenskyy.

Mindich allegedly exerted control over loyalists who then pressured contractors for Energoatom, Ukraine’s state-owned nuclear power company, demanding kickbacks to bypass bureaucratic obstacles. The requested kickbacks were reportedly as high as 15%.

Zelenskyy himself was not implicated in the investigation.

The new effort comes as Zelenskyy says that his team is ‘working to ensure another start to negotiations’ on ending the war with Russia.

‘We are also counting on the resumption of POW exchanges – many meetings, negotiations, and calls are currently taking place to ensure this. I thank everyone who is helping. Thank you to everybody who stands with Ukraine,’ Zelenskyy wrote.

Ukraine’s president further said that he is preparing for a full week of diplomacy with Greece, France and Spain, as well as renewed negotiations over prisoner of war exchanges with Russia.

Zelenskyy will meet with officials in Greece on Sunday to discuss natural gas imports, while talks with France on Monday and Spain on Tuesday will center on bolstering Ukrainian air defenses.

From new stealth bombers to AI-enabled drones, the U.S. and China are reshaping airpower for a Pacific showdown – each betting its technology can keep the other out of the skies.

The U.S. is charging ahead with its next-generation F-47 fighter, while China scrambles to catch up with jets designed to match the F-35 and F-22.

After a brief program pause in 2024, the Air Force awarded Boeing the contract in March for the F-47, a manned sixth-generation fighter meant to anchor America’s next air superiority fleet. The first flight is expected in 2028.

At the same time, the B-21 Raider, the stealth successor to the B-2, is deep into testing at Edwards Air Force Base. The Air Force plans to buy at least 100 Raiders – each built to survive inside heavily defended Chinese airspace.

The Pentagon is also betting on Collaborative Combat Aircraft, or CCAs – drones designed to fly alongside fighters as ‘loyal wingmen.’ Prototypes from Anduril and General Atomics are already in the air. Officials say CCAs will let one pilot control several drones at once.

China outpaces the rest of the world in the commercial drone market, but that doesn’t necessarily give it the advantage from a military perspective. 

‘I’m not sure that’s really true. In terms of high-end military drones that are really important to this fight, the U.S. still has a pretty significant edge.’ said Eric Heginbotham, a research scientist at MIT’s Center for International Studies. 

He pointed to the Air Force’s stealth reconnaissance platforms – the RQ-170 and RQ-180 – and upcoming ‘loyal wingman’ drones designed to fly with fighters as proof that the U.S. still leads in advanced integration and stealth technology.

China’s leap forward

China’s airpower modernization has accelerated as the U.S. reshapes its force. Beijing has zeroed in on three priorities – stealth, engines and carriers – the areas that long held its military back.

The Chengdu J-20, China’s flagship stealth fighter, is being fitted with the new WS-15 engine, a home-built powerplant meant to rival U.S. engines.

‘It took them a while to get out of the blocks on fifth generation, especially to get performance anywhere near where U.S. fifth gen was,’ Heginbotham said. ‘The J-20 really does not have a lot of the performance features that even the F-22 does, and we’ve had the F-22 for a long time.’

Meanwhile, China’s third aircraft carrier, the Fujian, was commissioned this fall – the first with electromagnetic catapults similar to U.S. Ford-class carriers. The move signals Beijing’s ambition to launch stealth jets from sea and project power well beyond its coast.

Together, the J-20, the carrier-based J-35, and the Fujian give China a layered airpower network – stealth jets on land and at sea backed by growing missile coverage.

Chinese military writings identify airfields as critical vulnerabilities. PLA campaign manuals call for striking runways early in a conflict to paralyze enemy air operations before they can begin. Analysts believe a few days of concentrated missile fire could cripple U.S. bases across Japan, Okinawa and Guam.

‘The U.S. bases that are forward deployed – particularly on Okinawa, but also on the Japanese mainland and on Guam – are exposed to Chinese missile attack,’ said Mark Cancian, a retired Marine colonel and senior advisor at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. ‘In our war games, the Chinese would periodically sweep these air bases with missiles and destroy dozens, in some cases even hundreds, of U.S. aircraft.’

Heginbotham said that missile-heavy strategy grew directly out of China’s early airpower weakness.

‘They didn’t think that they could gain air superiority in a straight-up air-to-air fight,’ he said. ‘So you need another way to get missiles out – and that another way is by building a lot of ground launchers.’

Different strategies, same goal

The two militaries are taking different paths to the same target: air dominance over the Pacific.

The U.S. approach relies on smaller numbers of highly advanced aircraft linked by sensors and artificial intelligence. The goal: strike first, from long range, and survive in contested skies.

China’s model depends on volume – mass-producing fighters, missiles, and carrier sorties to overwhelm U.S. defenses and logistics.

‘U.S. fighter aircraft – F-35s, F-15s, F-22s – are relatively short-legged, so they have to get close to Taiwan if they’re going to be part of the fight,’ Cancian said. ‘They can’t fight from Guam, and they certainly can’t fight from further away. So if they’re going to fight, they have to be inside that Chinese defensive bubble.’

Both sides face the same challenge: surviving inside that bubble. China’s expanding missile range is pushing U.S. aircraft farther from the fight, while American bombers and drones are designed to break back in.

The fight to survive

Heginbotham said survivability – not dogfighting – will define the next decade of air competition.

‘We keep talking about aircraft as if it’s going to be like World War II – they go up, they fight each other. That’s not really our problem,’ he said. ‘Our problem is the air bases themselves and the fact that aircraft can be destroyed on the air base.’

China, he warned, is preparing for that reality while the U.S. is not.

‘They practice runway strikes in exercises, they’re modeling this stuff constantly,’ Heginbotham said. ‘Unlike the United States, China is hardening its air bases. The U.S. is criminally negligent in its refusal to harden its air bases.’

Cancian’s war-game findings echo that vulnerability. He said U.S. surface ships and aircraft would likely have to fall back under missile fire in the opening days of a conflict.

‘At the initial stages of a conflict, China would have a distinct advantage,’ Cancian said. ‘Now, over time, the U.S. would be able to reinforce its forces, and that would change.’

Looking ahead

The Pentagon’s fiscal 2026–27 budget will determine how fast the U.S. can build out its F-47s, B-21s and CCAs – systems that will shape American airpower through the 2030s.

China’s rapid modernization is closing what was once a wide gap, but the U.S. still holds advantages in stealth integration, combat experience and autonomous systems.

‘The ability to protect our aircraft, whatever form those aircraft take, on the ground is going to be central to our ability to fight in the Asia theater,’ Heginbotham said.

‘Survivability is going to be key… The ability to protect and disperse your firepower is going to be central to whether we can really stay in this game.’

For decades, U.S. air dominance was taken for granted. In the Pacific, that advantage is no longer guaranteed.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Sunday that the Cartel de los Soles, a powerful criminal network tied to Venezuela’s top leadership, will be labeled as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). 

The move appears to be an escalation in Washington’s stance toward the Venezuelan government and could lead to military action against the Maduro regime. 

In a statement, Rubio confirmed the U.S. will formally designate the cartel as an FTO later this month.

The designation, which is to take effect Nov. 24, targets the criminal network allegedly led by Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro and senior members of his regime.

According to the State Department, ‘Based in Venezuela, the Cartel de los Soles is headed by Nicolás Maduro and other high-ranking individuals of the illegitimate Maduro regime who have corrupted Venezuela’s military, intelligence, legislature, and judiciary.’

‘Neither Maduro nor his cronies represent Venezuela’s legitimate government,’ the statement read.

‘The Cartel de los Soles, in coordination with other terrorist organizations including Tren de Aragua and the Sinaloa Cartel, is responsible for terrorist violence across our hemisphere and for trafficking drugs into the United States and Europe.’

The announced action is being taken under Section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which authorizes the State Department to designate foreign entities engaged in terrorist activity. 

The designation will become official once it’s published in the Federal Register.

The Cartel de los Soles had previously been sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury Department under Executive Order 13224, which targets terrorists and those providing support to terrorism.

In an accompanying post on X, Rubio said:

.@StateDept intends to designate Cartel de los Soles as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). Headed by the illegitimate Nicolás Maduro, the group has corrupted the institutions of government in Venezuela and is responsible for terrorist violence conducted by and with other designated FTOs as well as for trafficking drugs into the United States and Europe.

The statement came as President Trump reiterated that the U.S. was intent on stopping drug dealers and drugs filtering into the country.

‘We’re stopping drug dealers and drugs from coming into our country,’ Trump told reporters Sunday night.

‘And I actually told Marco and some of the people our secretary of state is doing a great job, by the way. I said, ‘Go to Congress and let them know we’re not letting drugs come through Mexico. We’re not letting them come through Venezuela,” he added.

Trump’s comments came just after he said that the government may be having discussions with Venezuela as well as confirming whether the new cartel designation would mean the U.S. government could now target Maduro’s assets or infrastructure.

It allows us to do that,’ Trump confirmed while mentioning talks with the Venezuelan leader.

‘We may be having some discussions with Maduro, and we’ll see how that turns out. They would like to talk,’ he said before adding, ‘We’ll see what happens.’

President Trump is calling on House Republicans to vote to release files related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, insisting he has ‘nothing to hide’ and accusing Democrats of using the case as a distraction from GOP accomplishments.

In a Truth Social post on Sunday, Trump urged House Republicans to vote in favor of releasing the documents, describing the controversy as a ‘Democrat hoax perpetrated by radical left lunatics.’

‘As I said on Friday night aboard Air Force One to the Fake News Media, House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party, including our recent Victory on the Democrat ‘Shutdown,” Trump wrote.

Trump pointed to the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) previous release of thousands of pages of Epstein-related documents. 

He also noted that the agency is investigating possible ties between Epstein and ‘Democrat operatives’ including former President Bill Clinton, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman and former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers.

‘The House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to, I DON’T CARE!’ Trump said.

He added, ‘All I do care about is that Republicans get BACK ON POINT, which is the Economy, ‘Affordability’ (where we are winning BIG!), our Victory on reducing Inflation from the highest level in History to practically nothing, bringing down prices for the American People, delivering Historic Tax Cuts, gaining Trillions of Dollars of Investment into America (A RECORD!), the rebuilding of our Military, securing our Border, deporting Criminal Illegal Aliens, ending Men in Women’s Sports, stopping Transgender for Everyone, and so much more!’

Trump also argued that if the Democrats ‘had anything,’ it would have surfaced prior to last year’s presidential election.

‘Nobody cared about Jeffrey Epstein when he was alive and, if the Democrats had anything, they would have released it before our Landslide Election Victory,’ Trump said. ‘Some ‘members’ of the Republican Party are being ‘used,’ and we can’t let that happen. Let’s start talking about the Republican Party’s Record Setting Achievements, and not fall into the Epstein ‘TRAP,’ which is actually a curse on the Democrats, not us. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!’

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Friday the DOJ would probe prominent Democrats after new emails revealed ties to Epstein.

In an X post Friday afternoon, Bondi said Jay Clayton, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, would take the lead on the investigation.

‘Clayton is one of the most capable and trusted prosecutors in the country,’ Bondi wrote in the post. ‘As with all matters, the Department will pursue this with urgency and integrity to deliver answers to the American people.’

Americans have delivered the same message in the last two elections: make life affordable again. 

They are tired of working harder for less, while the cost of everything — from housing to education to insurance — keeps rising. The affordability crisis touches every household, and its biggest driver is the one Washington refuses to tackle seriously: healthcare. 

Healthcare now consumes nearly one-fifth of our economy. It is the largest single cost for employers, the fastest-growing burden on families, and the quietest drain on national growth. Every dollar businesses spend on bloated health costs is a dollar not available for higher wages, new jobs or investment. Every dollar families spend on premiums or out-of-pocket costs is a dollar they can’t use for savings, housing or opportunity. Until we fix healthcare, we can’t fix affordability. 

It’s not that Washington ignores healthcare — it’s that it thinks about it too narrowly. Politicians obsess over temporary subsidies, tax credits and program expansions that make insurance more expensive to subsidize but never make care itself more affordable. The current fight over extending COVID-era insurance subsidies is a perfect example. Even supporters of Obamacare now admit that the ‘Affordable’ Care Act turned out to be unaffordable. Their answer is to borrow more money to prop up a system that keeps getting worse. That is not reform — it’s surrender.

There are three truths both parties must face. 

First, the system is already too expensive and locked in a pattern that guarantees it will grow more unaffordable every year. 

Second, 60 years of bureaucratic control — public and private — have utterly failed to contain costs.

Third, we must build a new model that relies on patients, doctors and employers — not massive government and insurance-company bureaucracies — to achieve the change Americans want. 

That model is not theoretical — it already works in the rest of our economy. When people have access to clear prices and quality information before making decisions, competition drives innovation, choice and lower costs. Technology has made this possible in every industry, from travel to retail to manufacturing. If the same principles applied to healthcare, we could unleash that same power to lower costs and improve quality. 

Instead, our opaque, bureaucratic system hides prices and multiplies middlemen. The average family of four now spends roughly $27,000 a year on health insurance — about the cost of a new Chevrolet or Toyota every 12 months. Most families don’t see the full bill because their employer or the government pays much of it, but that just means their wages are smaller. Paying the equivalent of a new car every year just for coverage is why Americans list affordability as their top economic concern.

Worse, nobody knows what anything costs — not patients, not families, not even the self-funded employers who pay the claims for their plan members. Bills arrive months after care, after passing through a maze of third-party administrators, repricers and billing vendors. That secrecy fuels waste, fraud and frustration. It’s estimated that 30% to 50% of all healthcare spending is administrative rather than medical. In short, America’s healthcare system has more middlemen than medicine. 

And who benefits? Powerful interest groups, insurers, consultants and bureaucracies that profit from complexity and confusion. As Tom Cruise shouted in ‘Jerry Maguire’: ‘Show me the money.’ Behind the speeches and lobbyists defending this broken system are people determined to protect their share of a bankrupting status quo. 

Second, 60 years of bureaucratic control — public and private — have utterly failed to contain costs.

Politicians can’t fight every entrenched interest group — but millions of patients and doctors armed with real price and quality information can. Transparency gives power back to those who actually deliver and receive care. When they can see what things cost, they can make smarter choices, reward efficiency and hold wasteful players accountable. Transparency doesn’t just lower prices — it changes who holds the power.

That’s why President Donald Trump’s price-transparency executive order in his first administration was a genuine breakthrough. It required hospitals and insurers to publish negotiated prices and, through the No Surprises Act, directed officials to create Advance Explanations of Benefits (AEOBs) so Americans could know their costs before receiving care. Trump started the transparency revolution. Under the Biden administration, enforcement stalled, and patients never saw the full benefit. 

Now Trump has the chance to finish what he began — and make transparency permanent. 

The administration has the authority to act right now under his ‘radical transparency’ executive order issued earlier this year, the No Surprises Act, and existing Employee Retirement Income Security Act authority. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services should immediately issue and enforce AEOB rules. The Department of Labor should guarantee employers access to complete claims and pricing data while protecting patient privacy. If the administration moves quickly, Americans could begin receiving AEOBs in 2026 — and Trump could rightfully claim a historic victory for transparency, competition and higher wages before the midterms. 

Congress should reinforce this effort by passing the bipartisan Patients Deserve Price Tags Act, led by Kansas Republican Sen. Roger Marshall and Colorado Democrat Sen. John Hickenlooper. The bill secures employer access to data and ensures no third-party administrator can hide prices from the people who pay the bills. The executive branch can act today; Congress should make it permanent.

When every patient and employer can see prices, markets will clean out waste on their own. Transparency gives employers the power to negotiate directly with providers and patients the ability to choose wisely. Prices in the open create competition that middlemen can’t survive and costs they can’t hide. The ripple effect — lower costs, higher wages, more investment — will strengthen every part of the economy. 

If America truly wants to make life affordable again, healthcare transparency is where we start.

It’s bold. It’s achievable. And it’s the single biggest step we can take to restore prosperity for working families.
