BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)
Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"

Earlier, Energy Secretary Chris Wright posted on X that a Navy warship had “successfully escorted” an oil tanker through the strait — a claim he soon deleted. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about current operations. The official pointed to comments made by Gen. Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who said at a briefing on Tuesday morning that the Pentagon has not been given the task of escorting merchant ships.

He did not provide further details. The escort would appear to be the first of its kind since the start of the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran, which has paralyzed shipping through the strait. UPDATE: Shortly after the post was published, it disappeared from Wright’s account without explanation.
Things are going great!

Mike Johnson plays dumb on reports Russia is helping Iran target US troops: "I haven't been in the SCIF for a confidential briefing, but the president commented yesterday that if indeed Russia is helping Iran, they're not doing a very good job. So we'll leave it on that."

Two mature Bald Eagles with white head and tail and brown body and wings are perching on an evergreen tree, with a clear blue sky behind them. One eagle is at the top of the tree and the other is on a branch a few feet below.
On this #TalonTuesday we have a nesting pair of Bald Eagles taking a break from making babies on a beautiful winter day. Their nest is in the same tree, just below them.

This is an escalation by DHS.
Six US Citizens and permanent residents are now home after being held over 30 hours at O’Hare, transferred to Broadview, and moved across state lines.
Community pressure got them home. So many more do not have that support.
NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
Nature's architect, the weaver bird . 😍
Iran's Foreign Minister says in an exclusive with “Meet the Press” that Russia and Iran have a “very good partnership” and Russia is helping Iran “in many different directions.” NBC News has reported that Russia is providing intelligence to Iran on the location of U.S. forces in the Middle East.
Post from Drop Site News claiming Bellingcat geolocation confirms U.S. Tomahawk missiles struck a girls’ primary school in southern Iran, killing around 180 people, most of them children, with an embedded tweet describing footage of the strike.
Further confirmation of what Trump keeps denying and what Hegseth won't admit to. It was the U.S. that struck that girls’ school.
Republicans are scared. With the Strait of Hormuz closed, oil prices have soared to over $100 per barrel (from under $70 per barrel 10 days ago.) There’s been a huge spike in gas prices. The WSJ called it “the most severe energy crisis since the 1970s and threatening to derail the global economy.”

We are NOT going back to the Vietnam era, people. I lived thru it; it was a horrible time in this country. Guys were getting drafted; ones I knew got letters or enlisted.
