🇺🇸🇮🇱 American leaders are DESTROYING the country for the sake of Israel Tucker and Jimmy Dore argue the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East are accelerating an existing decline, while Washington shows little concern for either conflict’s details. When the UK and Europe sanctioned Israeli settlement expansion in the West Bank, the U.S. threatened its own allies instead. They describe a country willing to damage itself and its oldest partners for a government that holds it in contempt. Source: @TCNetwork / Writer: Lucas

🇺🇸 Police and the FBI are excavating the backyard of a Philadelphia home tied to a MISSING WOMEN case. Crews began digging at the Olney house on Chew Avenue after weeks of searching for DNA and other evidence. The property belonged to the late Raymond Horsch and his son Eugene, who is in custody on unrelated drug and weapons charges. Investigators recovered a huge volume of digital files linked to the women, but no human remains so far. The search continues as authorities work to determine what happened to the missing women.

🚨🇺🇸🇬🇱 Trump says massive oil drilling is coming to Greenland as the US turns the island into a missile shield Fresh off a deal giving America a permanent military foothold on the Arctic island, Trump is promising an energy boom too: “Any future attack on the United States will have to come across Greenland, where our Defense will routinely knock down drones, missiles, or any other form of weapon not yet even conceived.” The defense side checks out, since the deal lets the US build bases and scout a Golden Dome missile defense site there. The oil is the harder sell... Greenland’s government controls its own resources and blocked a US company from drilling in August, so expect Washington to lean HARD on Nuuk for permits before anyone pumps a barrel. Writer: Daniel

🇺🇸🇸🇦 The hacked supertanker that lost its engines off Texas was carrying oil for Saudi Aramco's American refinery Bloomberg customs data shows about half the 2 million barrels on the VL Prosperity were bought by Motiva, Aramco's wholly owned Port Arthur refinery and one of the biggest in the country. The tanker loaded at Egypt's Sidi Kerir, routed through Gibraltar because Hormuz is a war zone, and was hit in early August. Coast Guard and FBI cyber teams boarded in the Atlantic on Aug. 21 and spent four days aboard, and investigators determined the hackers reached the propulsion system. Iran's IRGC-tied Mehr News broke the story on Aug. 20, weeks before Washington confirmed anything, describing how the attackers cut engine cooling, raised engine speed and tampered with fuel systems during a 30-hour blackout. Tasnim followed with "No American vessel is safe anymore." Attributing it to "unnamed crew" while publishing the playbook is how Tehran takes credit without signing its name, and US investigators are focused on Iran-linked hackers. A second Texas-bound tanker, the LPG carrier Kohaku, was boarded three days later over a related attack, and nearly 20 ships are now under watch. Two months on, the Houthis are hitting Aramco in Dhahran while Iran shows it can reach Aramco's cargo on the way to Texas. Source: Bloomberg, CBS News / Writer: Daniel

🇺🇸 Tucker and Jimmy Dore say livestreaming the Fort Hood shooter’s firing squad would cross a line America can’t uncross Tucker made clear he’s not defending Nidal Hasan, but says the country has always refused to broadcast executions for one reason: “We imagined that we were above that, that we were civilized.” Trump now says he hasn’t made a final call on the livestream before the December 3 execution, and with Republicans, Democrats and the Vice President all pushing back, the pressure is clearly working.

🚨OMG! What is it about those CRAZY cases of mothers KILLING their own family? A 27-year-old woman is charged with killing her husband and 3-year-old son at a hotel in Pennsylvania. She is accused of stabbing them both to death in the room. After doing that, she cut her own wrist and neck, called 911, and told dispatchers she wanted to die and that they were already gone. She faces 2 counts of criminal homicide. The case is still in the early stages and has not gone to trial. Brutal af. Writer: Lucas t.co/wJp15AllX6

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 With its radars bombed out, Iran is using men in wooden boats to spot targets for the IRGC A US military official told Reuters that American forces confronted a dhow last week, ordered everyone off and destroyed it after determining the crew was calling in ship positions, including US warships, to the Revolutionary Guard. Nobody was hurt. That's the new Iranian playbook: unarmed spotters on small boats doing the job the radars did before US strikes wrecked them. The official says Iran won't risk its last fast boats, which is why exports through the strait keep climbing. But the data shows at least 5 ships hit around Hormuz in 48 hours, the fastest pace of the war, and spotters in dhows are cheap, deniable and everywhere. Sinking one is easy. Telling a spotter from a fisherman before he radios a tanker's position is the war the Navy is now in. Source: Reuters / Writer: Daniel Media: CentCom(2024)

🚨🇾🇪🇨🇳 The Houthis are building Iran’s best missile themselves... with parts shipped from CHINA Conflict Armament Research found motor sections, airframe pieces, fins and heat shielding for a Kheibar Shekan class missile hidden in two shipments Yemeni authorities seized last year, with paperwork pointing to a Chinese precision metal firm that advertises custom aerospace parts. The missile flies about 1,200 miles, covering all of Saudi Arabia and Israel, with a warhead that separates and steers around air defenses at 6,000 mph. This fits a pattern... In August the Journal reported Chinese factories supply the turbojet engines in the Shahed drones that wrecked the US Navy base in Bahrain, Chinese firms are the top source of seized Houthi-bound parts, and US officials have suspected Beijing of feeding Iran targeting data. Trump wrote on Truth Social Monday that he doesn’t believe China or Russia are helping Iran. The receipts say China’s factories are arming both ends of this war, and no sanctions list has slowed them down. Source: Wall Street Journal, Conflict Armament Research / Writer: Daniel

🚨🇷🇺🇺🇦Russian ballistic missiles reportedly hit Kyiv's power plant and nobody warned the city, for the second night in a row Ukraine's Air Force says it got no launch data from its "partners" before Tuesday night's strike on the Darnytsia heat and power plant, so radar only picked up the missiles as they were nearly over the capital. Zelensky posted that the plant was hit and that Ukraine was again left blind. The strike lands days after Trump's Russian diesel deal, his call for Ukraine to replace Zelensky, and a Miami meeting where US officials reminded Kyiv it owes Washington for its intelligence help, which some in the room heard as a threat. Ukraine's own foreign minister says the gap came from the weapon Russia used, not a US cutoff, and that intelligence sharing continues. Source: NYT, DD Geopolitics on TG / Writer: Daniel

🚨🇺🇸 WAIT... no way Trump just handed out presidential pardons LIVE on stage at his rally like it was a game show giveaway “That means you’re as clean as a newborn baby’s ass.” Pass the wipes, Trump’s scrubbing those records clean!

🇮🇷🇺🇸 Whatever happened to hitting Iran back harder for every ship it touches?... A US and Israeli strike on Iran could come within weeks Netanyahu reportedly pushed Trump to restart the Iran war on a call last Wednesday, Israeli jets are flying sorties, and three US carriers are converging, while Iran’s six strikes on ships in 24 hours came the same week Washington hit its first ship in over a month. Former Marine and State Department official Matthew Hoh says Washington’s pledge to hit back harder for every ship Iran touched has gone silent, because tit-for-tat is a game Tehran sets the terms of: “There’s going to be no real penetration of Iranian airspace. We haven’t seen that since around April.” He expects a joint strike within two weeks that looks like July and September all over again, fighters lobbing missiles from 100 to 200 miles out, a week of headlines, and a strait left exactly where Iran wants it. @MatthewPHoh @WeTheBrandon

🇺🇸🇸🇴 Ilhan Omar may face more heat from the forms she signs as a member of Congress than from old immigration questions. Lawmakers file disclosures and ethics forms every year. If those contain false information, each filing could raise separate legal issues, even if the original immigration matters are too old to prosecute. The bureaucracy may actually be what keeps this case alive! Writer: Lucas t.co/1DhKNSEf5v

🇨🇳🇺🇸 A week of driving in China costs $7 while one Florida fill-up just topped $100, and Washington still won't let the Chinese cars in Peter Alexander, who runs Z-Ben Advisors from inside China, charges his EV for the week for about seven bucks, while his sister in Florida just sent him a photo of a fill-up over a hundred dollars. The Iran war has set off a rush for Chinese EVs, solar and batteries across Europe, South America and Southeast Asia, and Beijing doesn't even need the American market yet: "Right now it's essentially the United States that has said, we understand that, but we still don't care." Every month of this war makes the cheap Chinese car harder to keep out, so the question is whether Washington builds something to compete before voters decide the price at the pump matters more than the tariff wall. @WeTheBrandon

🚨🇺🇸 🇮🇷 Trump tells Alaska rally America has “had it” with Iran: “Wait until you see what we do” Hours after Iranian officials told Reuters they are stepping up tanker attacks to keep oil high through the midterms, Trump answered from the stage in Wasilla: “We’re going to do a number. We sort of had it. You know we’ve had it.” He has already promised no strikes before the November 3 midterms, and more carriers and Marines are heading to the region by late November. Put those together and the window is obvious... Tehran has about three weeks to send a real answer, because once the votes are counted, the warnings turn into bombers.

🇸🇦🇮🇱🇾🇪 Israel wants to be Saudi Arabia's bodyguard against the Houthis and can't even find the Houthi leadership Bernard Haykel, a Princeton professor and Middle East specialist, says the Israeli offer of Iron Dome and air cover is real and the Saudis aren't buying it, partly over Gaza and partly because Israel has bombed the Houthis before without denting them. Israel spent decades penetrating Hezbollah before it could peel the leadership apart, and nothing like that exists for Yemen, where nobody knows where the Houthi leaders are: "The idea that the Israelis can come in and make a radical difference in the outcome of this war is a bunch of baloney." Greece has already sent interceptors and Ukrainian anti-drone kit is guarding Saudi tankers, so Riyadh is building its shield from a dozen suppliers, and an Israeli flag over that effort would hand the Houthis their best recruiting poster yet. @WetheBrandon

🇺🇸 Trump listed the Alaska energy and infrastructure projects he's LAUNCHING March brought a record oil and gas lease sale in the National Petroleum Reserve that drew about $164M in high bids. This month the Energy Department put up to $150M toward a second Railbelt power line. He also approved the Ambler Road for mining access that the prior administration blocked, and the King Cove Road is moving ahead. Writer: Lucas t.co/RNCSaHLh1W

🚨🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iranian officials are ramping up tanker attacks to keep oil high through the midterms: "This is a game of chess" Two senior Iranian officials say the new strategy started about 10 days ago, was approved at the very top, and changes both the kind of attacks and how often they come, with strikes now reaching the Gulf of Oman and the waters off Qatar and the UAE. One of them put the goal plainly: "Just when they think they are getting close to the point where prices will fall, we will push them away from it." The data backs it up, with at least 5 ships hit around Hormuz in the past 48 hours, the highest pace since the war began. A US official says Iran lost its radars and now uses unarmed spotters on dhows, one of which the Navy sank last week, and that it can't stop the export ramp-up without risking its last fast boats. So Iran's weapon is pace and reach, and the Americans' is the blockade and escorts, with both leaders counting to Nov. 3. Trump promised no strike before then, which hands Tehran three weeks to run up the price with no risk, and the officials say "complete closure" is next. Source: Reuters / Writer: Daniel

🇸🇦 Saudi Border Guard stopped a local man carrying 18 kg of banned khat leaves in southern Jazan. Patrols near Yemen caught him in Al-Ardah with the plant chewed for a mild buzz. Authorities completed the initial paperwork and handed him and the seized load over for further action. Saudi bans the substance, and larger seizures continue along the border. At 18 kg, this haul is small compared with others, but it adds to the steady flow officers handle in the area. Writer: Lucas t.co/Sg516T2ZHS
