In this episode of The Blue Newsroom, Amber Shamsi investigates the dangerous intersection of abandoned military tech, regional security failures, and the unchecked power of global tech giants.

Inside this episode:

Segment 1: The US Arsenal in Pakistan, How did $7.12 billion worth of U.S. military equipment—intended for the Afghan Army—end up in the hands of the TTP? We break down the timeline from the 2021 withdrawal to the advanced M16s and Night Vision gear now appearing in militant propaganda. Khawaja Asif’s "Double Admission" Defense Minister Khawaja Asif makes two startling reveals to CNN. Honesty or poor judgement?

Segment 2: The Raid on X & Big Tech’s Unchecked Power, French police have raided the Paris offices of Elon Musk’s 'X'. With allegations of child sexual deepfakes and hate speech being ignored by the platform, Amber Shamsi delivers a sharp take on why tech billionaires must be held accountable for the public opinion they shape.

Segment 3: Why the accountability question becomes personal: From US President Donald Trump to local politicians, can you remember which Pakistani politicians deflected hard questions? Watch the full analysis to understand the forces shaping our digital and physical borders.
