This is not good.
A Russian FPV drone connected by fiber optics reached the northern outskirts of Kharkiv today. This is very bad news.

Didn’t we try targeted strikes in June? 🤷♂️
U.S. officials say they doubt that Iran is ready to make a deal, but that the strategy behind targeted strikes would be to force its leaders to make concessions-NYT

Let me put it this way: Admiral Kacher probably wasn’t removed for overconfidence in the Iran war plans.
US Vice Admiral Fred Kacher has been removed from his position as director of the Joint Staff after only taking the post in December, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters

Part of the AI revolution is going to have to be making student loans dischargeable in bankruptcy. But this isn’t all bad — AI will also lower barriers to entry to industries like PE so the traditional steps will be redefined.

Today is the end of the 4th year of the war in Ukraine. I am a little choked up thinking about how the EU and US have helped keep Ukraine on its feet as reliable partners. Thank you, citizens of Europe for standing with us still. You will be proud of what you have done.
The President of the European Parliament has signed off on a €90 billion loan package for Ukraine. According to Roberta Metsola, the funds will be directed toward: ▪️ supporting the functioning of key state services; ▪️ sustaining Ukraine’s defense; ▪️ protecting the shared

It’s kind of funny that Mencho’s last photo is in a nightclub full of people and everyone is blaming his girlfriend for NARCing on him.
El Mencho > One of the most feared cartel bosses > Spent his last 24 hours alive with an OnlyFans model. > Dodged the DEA, the Mexican military, and the CIA for 15 years. > The OnlyFans model snitched on him. All criminals come to an end sooner or later. However, if he had

Correct. (Or congress imho).
The leaks about Gen. Caine's warnings could have the effect of forcing Trump to try to answer a basic question that has clearly been neglected: what is the strategic objective? Until now, no one knows. And there is no way to justify strikes without that answer.

This is a country three times bigger than Iraq, with mountains, in the drone era. Offensive infantry operations are dam near impossible and maneuverability warfare is dead. For Trump, he would be betting the farm on the people of Iran making an uprising when some bombs fall and
President Trump has grown increasingly frustrated with what aides describe as the limits of military leverage against Iran, with military planners telling the President that any strike on Tehran's assets would almost certainly not be a singular, decisive blow, instead, limited

All the Iran hawks know that Iran sits on half the Persian Gulf and that it’s 125 miles wide and Irans anti-ship missiles start at 300 miles, right?

Did they think sending some planes would collapse the Iranian government in protests or what? Wait until they realize the straight of Hormuz really can be cut off too.

Mark Levin makes an impassioned case, but it doesn't change the fact that Congress, not the President, decides when the country goes to war.

Song of the Future honors the schoolgirl uprising in Iran and the life of 16-year-old Sarina Esmailzadeh, one of thousands of Iranian schoolgirls who took to the streets as part of the Woman, Life, Freedom movement in 2022. These protests were sparked by the death of Jina Mahsa

Three months ago they said Operation Midnight Hammer “devastated” Iran’s nuclear program. If it didn’t, why didn’t they say so and what makes them think this time will be any different?
Steve Witkoff stated on Fox News that Iran is "probably a week away" from possessing industrial-grade bomb-making material, characterizing this development as "really dangerous" and emphasizing the non-negotiable stance on zero enrichment.

Remember back in September when the US strategy document was like we gotta chill on the foreign wars? That was fun.
President Trump has decided to pound Iran for weeks using heavy firepower, instead of brief strikes. Israel will play key role in assault; scope of destruction in Iran will be unprecedented in Mideast history. via Ynet

If Iran doesn’t cave, and Trump does launch strikes, what is the theory about how these strikes will produce the strategic & political outcomes US wants? Haven’t heard one yet, or even a rumor of one. (5/11)

He's right. I would add that according to open-source imagery, a significant fraction of US land-based aircraft forward deployed to the region seems vulnerable to Iranian retaliation. US should be asking if it wants to risk wiping out a significant chunk of its air combat power
This represents 40-50% of the deployable US air power in the world. Think air power on the order of the 1991 and 2003 Iraq war. And growing. Never has the US deployed this much force against a potential enemy and not launched strikes.
