Not long ago, Trump said Ukraine “has no cards” and Zelenskyy “has no trumps.”

Today, the U.S. is asking Ukraine to save their skies from Shahed drones.

Meet Ukraine’s trump cards — interceptor drones rewriting the rules of aerial warfare.
Fast, smart, deadly.

Walter Scheidel's thesis in his new book, The
Great Leveller: Violence and the History of Inequality from the Stone Age to the 21st Century, is that only violent events have significantly lessened inequality.
"For thousands of years, civilisation did not lend itself to peaceful equalisation. Across a wide range of societies anddifferent levels of development, stability favoured economic inequality. This was as true of Pharaonic Egypt as itwas of Victorian England,
...as true of the Roman Empire as of the United States. Violent shocks were of paramount importance in disrupting the established order, in compressing the distribution of income and wealth, in narrowing the gap between rich and poor.

Very, Very, few people understand the implications of this Israeli hack combined with its deep penetration of Iran's Regime means for the US-Israeli campaign to exterminate the Mullah's Regime Security Forces.

Let's talk about Gorgon's Stare & Post GWOT smart bombs🧵
1/ Image
Gorgon's Stare and its peer systems like ARGUS, Vigilant Stare, Constant Hawk and Agile Condor are Wide Area Aerial Surveillance (WAAS) systems, the all-seeing eye in the sky.

They are increasingly sophisticated mergers of multi-spectral cameras, computer data bases and more recently A.I.

2/
WAAS has had a rocky and politically charged history (See 2011 text below) but the data fusion technology has gotten to the point that more and more cameras can be networked together over larger areas with the data saved for later analysis.

Analysis which is improving via AI

While the Whitehouse sends mixed signals about regime change in Iran and Hegseth & Rubio fight about deploying "boots on the ground,"

a much worse possibility is developing for the Iran:

Recent reports suggest multiple-front secession is now possible.

Short thread. Image
Two days ago, reports began to emerge that the Mossad & the CIA were arming Kurdish militias in western Iran.

This probably wasn't really news to those in the know, but explicit talks with the Iraqi Kurdish KRG to ship weapons in were leaked to the press.
1/ Image
Then, Israel bombs Iran/Iraq border, providing cover for Kurdish forces and munitions to move from the Kurdish region of Iraq into Kurdish Iran.

1/ Did Ukraine recreate a January 2024 attack which sank a Russian corvette in the Black Sea with the sinking of the Russian LNG tanker Arctic Metagaz on 3 March 2026? A Russian source says that the tanker was sunk off Libya by four UAVs and two USVs attacking as a swarm. ⬇️
2/ 'Fighterbomber', which proclaimes itself to be the "chronicles of a retired fighter-bomber [pilot]", often posts information from apparent insider sources within the Russian Air Force, such as news of Russian military aircraft shootdowns and crashes.
3/ The channel reports: "According to the rumour mill, which in turn dreamed it up, four UAVs and two unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) arrived at the gas carrier. They struck at the same location, at a coordinated time."

Alrighty folks, we are back for round 2 today.

Dept. of Ed up now with Public Schools to start.
$3.5 billion in total.

Speaker Evans w/ the first Q.

"190 mil for teacher salary/raises, originating w/ the LEARNS Act (mandated any teacher not at 50k salary, we funded up to 50k). Since Sept of 22, have we recalculated anything? Are teachers still getting this?"
A: no, we haven't gone back and reevaluated this. It would take legislation to go back and take a new snapshot. If we base funding on different time period, we need a new statute. It's safe to assume that some teachers who may have moved schools weren't followed by salary funds"

What makes this lie so particularly absurd and outrageous is that Israel protects all religious sites including Al Aqsa Mosque from Ir@n and her proxies' bombs. Al Aqsa Mosque falls under Israel’s layered national air-defense and
1)
security system plus heavy ground security around the site. These systems include: the Iron Dome, the Iron Beam, the Arrow 2 and Arrow 3, its air force and radar network, and its ground security around the site. Praying for Moshiach and the coming Third Temple and
2)
preparing for that time does not mean that Jews are engaging in the destruction of the Mosque. If that were the goal, the Mosque could have been destroyed any time since the reestablishment of the State of Israel and obviously, it has not.
