I talked to dozens of experts in government, academia, cybersecurity, and industry about exactly this scenario last year and not only did not one of them think I was being alarmist, many brought it up unprompted and many said there was zero chance it hadn’t already happened
QUINTANILLA: Do we think the Russians have shared intel about US military assets, and if so, why would we be giving waivers on oil sanctions?
WITKOFF: I can tell you that on the call with POTUS, the Russians said they have not been sharing. That's what they said. We can take them at their word.
The girls’ school in Iran, where 165 people were killed by an apparent US-Israeli attack, was hit with two strikes, with the second missile killing sheltering survivors, two first responders and the parent of a slain child have told Middle East Eye.
New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.
Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday
the most important state election of early 2026 is right around the corner… though you’d never know it by the attention it’s receiving.
here’s hoping this bolts article helps jumpstart a little more chat!
Not good.
Good god.
Please please read this from the archbishop of Chicago

I love this for her.
It's so clearly untrue, even Hegseth won't go along with it.
It's the middle of the night in Chicago. Reporters and electeds are trying to figure out why a US citizen was detained by CBP, why her phone was inside an ICE detention center tonight, and where she is now.
Also unclear what happened to the other five people she was detained with at O'Hare airport.
SITREP: Whitehouse staff leaking strategic information like a moribund rowboat and our antagonist of choice cutting a wrestling promo in response.
The Trump administration has proposed repealing a Biden-era rule that required states to change how they pay out child care subsidies, citing the potential for fraud.
Presumably, they threw those things away because they were trying to throw away their owners. Some CBP agent should have to sift through landfill garbage until they find the nail gun.
If USA Rosen is going to spend all week in show cause hearings anyway, it doesn’t sound like it will change the work flow much to hold him in a contemner’s cell until the department coughs up the property it stole from these individuals.
Turns out lawlessness is not a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

After Whiskey Pete threw a tantrum yesterday and then Karoline Leavitt attacked Kaitlan Collins because the media reported on the people Trump got killed in Kuwait, note that MOST outlets are not prominently covering IDs of fifth and sixth KIA, as Reuters did.

President Zelenskуy: Putin “lost his winter operation.” Russia hit energy in freezing temps, tried to split society and stop the army—“but the plan collapsed. With warmth returning, hope returns.”
And it won’t work in spring, summer, autumn, or any winter after this.
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
Secretary of State is reduced to the "I can't comment yet on the president's latest war, I haven't seen it" dodge.
On the 6 US troops who died at Shuaiba port in Kuwait: Troops asked for more drone defeat capabilities, none came. It was recommended that the makeshift tactical operations center not be used because it was hard to defend and concentrated too many troops in one place. www.cbsnews.com/news/iran-st...
This is pretty hilarious. Retaliation *against* your attack really can't be the imminent threat that justifies your attack. I think the concept of linear time pretty much settles this question without the need for additional argument.
Awful big talk for a guy who lost three f-15s to friendly fire this morning.
Alex Pretti should have been 38 years old today.

OFFS. When Iran tried to interefere in 2020, researchers caught them and called them out. Then the Benz-Weiss-Taibbi-Musk-Jordan-Trump axis labeled those researchers "censors" ... and set about defunding them and dismantling their organizations.
