I’ve read claims that these claims are Iranian propaganda. Who the hell knows anymore what are “true facts?” Bring back #WalterCronkite

Oil is up 30%

Wind & solar is unaffected

What technologies is the Trump administration promoting?

The one that puts money in their pockets.

I've read claims that up to 900 American service people are dead.

I've read claims that there've been major explosions in Florida and New Jersey.

I don't expect corporate media would report either one, but I can't fully trust randos on social media,either.

As I didn't (wouldn't) read this, did the @nypost.com frame this as a "Local boy makes good" story?

I ask because I'm still awaiting their Gratuitous Mamdani Slam of the day (see below for the Motherlode of those!):

People often assume survivors are exaggerating.

In my experience, the opposite is usually true. Survivors soften the edges of what happened. They leave things out. They make it smaller just to be able to say it.

Listen carefully to survivors. The truth is often already in their words.

Pelosi is still sharper than your whole friend group combined.

It's not age, it's acumen and ability.

If the candidate cannot personally campaign and speak before the chamber and the public, then yes, they ought not run, whether young or old.

Age, however, is not a legitimate boundary.

REPORT: Trump has privately expressed serious interest in deploying U.S. ground troops inside Iran, according to multiple officials.

Sources say he’s discussed sending a small contingent of troops for targeted operations. The White House denies any decision has been made. (NBC News)

This geriatric 79 year old war mongering president is totally off his tits
Should have an independent drugs test before he makes a speech or more importantly gives out any more illegal orders

“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”

That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.

He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.

Israel is demolishing Lebanon

Starting to think the Iran stuff was actually purposefully a distraction for this because they know how brutally unpopular Gaza has been, Because the news is covered up in Iran but there is zero coverage of this. It’s so fucking bad yall it’s Gaza 2.

NEW: @governor.ca.gov Gavin Newsom is turning 6 empty state buildings in LA County into a behavioral health campus with 162 treatment and housing beds, backed by a Prop 1 investment to get people off the streets and into care.

A large number of missiles have hit Tel Aviv.

Seems odd there are no photos or video.

It's been suggested that anyone publishing photos or videos during or after attacks will face 5 years in prison.

A judge ordered the release of a man with lawful permanent resident status — who twice won bond before an immigration court — but has remained detained for 200 days because of the Trump administration's use of a (previously) little used "automatic stay." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Here’s the info for a call to bring NASHVILLE NOTICIAS reporter Estefany Rodriguez home after she was snatched by ICE (she is here legally, married to a citizen, applying for a green card): www.instagram.com/p/DVhw2x4Dbh...

And this is just the report that they’re releasing, I’m willing to bet that the actual numbers are much worse

So we're committed to $1 billion a day and troop deaths because of an unsupported "opinion."

Not to mention Trump boasting about gold drapes being more significant to him than the lives of American troops...
