35 former federal judges are asking to investigate Trump’s IRS lawsuit to determine if there's been “corruption of the judicial process itself.”
They argue it may have been used as part of a “collusive scheme” tied to a massive undisclosed settlement for Trump and his family. https://twitter.com/TheWarMonitor/status/2059738957089325183/photo/1

RT @BrettErickson28: One of the biggest challenges for the average person in the U.S./Iran War is navigating the cesspool of ideological drivel and utter nonsense that many project.
For many, their entire careers have revolved around getting the United States to launch a war against Iran, and therefore are desperate to project success despite it being crystal clear that it has not, and will not be successful.
But on the other end, you have a very Iranian propaganda machine that projects sunshine and roses, which is also demonstrably false.
So much deep rooted hatred is inherent on both sides of this conflict, particularly between Israel and Iran. It is for this reason that one must conduct a greater level of due diligence on their sources of information, and not take what it said from either side at face value.
Careers of many hang in the balance. The legacies of many hang in the balance.
Be wary of the underlying biases of those that claim expertise.

RT @BrettErickson28: The Blockade of Iran has not produced any strategic objectives, and now 43 days in, we continue to see signs from Iran that they are only becoming stronger during this economic warfare campaign.
Don't get me wrong, the Blockade of Iran DOES hurt. 100%, that is irrefutable. But it was a horrendously flawed strategy from the moment it was introduced.
Why... on Earth, would we think that a country that has been under economic warfare pressures for decades would cave... in a matter of weeks?
Why... on Earth, did we think their "oil infrastructure would explode"?
Why... on Earth, did we think they would break before the global economy did?
None of it EVER made any sense.
But now it is getting embarrassing.
Not only has the blockade allowed for Iran to replenish their stockpiles of Shahed drones and anti-ship missiles, but it has allowed for them to reposition and harden their defenses.
Beyond this though, we see clear signs of a regime no longer worried about being overthrown. This is what happens when you slaughter hundreds of schoolchildren. This is what happens when you threaten to wipe out their entire civilization.
They. Rally. Around. The. Flag.
The internet? Up and running as of this week. Still heavily filtered, but this is not an action a regime fearful of overthrow would take.
Flights out of the country? Ramping up as we speak.
The stock market? Back to trading.
The Trump Administration needs to make a deal, and they need to make a deal FAST. Nothing we can do at this point will change the damning strategic reality we are now faced with. We launched an ill-advised war of choice, grossly miscalculated, compounded our errors by strengthening the regime, and threw the global economy into freefall.
Military options do not exist. Whatsoever. Short of a ground invasion, which almost nobody would support, nor would it be successful, has even the most remote chances of succeeding.
The economic warfare campaign, spearheaded by the confused and disorganized Scott Bessent, and predicated on insane and delusional theories, has only INCREASED the negotiating leverage for Iran.
We are out of options. It sucks. A terrorist regime that is morally abhorrent will remain to rule over people that widely do not want them in power. But this IS reality, whether anyone likes it or not. We are powerless to change it.
The only question that remains is how much more damage the United States will impose on the global economy.
The Iran War is done. It is over. Nothing we can do will change the leverages. Nothing will remove the terrorist regime from power. And it sucks.
But reality does not care whether you like it. Reality proceeds nonetheless.

RT @NSTRIKE1231: 🇨🇳❌🇳🇱 A Chinese Navy helicopter briefly approached the Dutch frigate HNLMS De Ruyter while the vessel was sailing through the South China Sea during its Indo-Pacific deployment.
The Dutch side described the interaction as professional, stating that the helicopter simply identified the ship before departing. In contrast, China adopted a firmer position, with a military spokesperson claiming that “necessary measures” — including warnings and electronic jamming — were taken after the Dutch frigate “illegally intruded” near the Paracel Islands and launched shipborne helicopters into Chinese airspace.

‼️🚨🇨🇳🇳🇱 The Royal Netherlands Navy frigate HNLMS De Ruyter (F804) was briefly approached by a Chinese Navy (PLAN) helicopter while transiting the South China Sea during its Indo-Pacific deployment.
➡️ The interaction was described as professional by the Dutch, with them describing the helicopter as simply identifying the vessel before departing.
➡️ China, however, took a harder stance, with a Chinese military spokesperson stating that "necessary measures," including warnings and electronic jamming, were taken after the HNLMS De Ruyter illegally intruded near the Paracel Islands and launched shipborne helicopters into Chinese airspace.

RT @NSTRIKE1231: ❗️🇵🇱 Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski has delivered a sharp assessment of the current situation on the front and Russia’s strategic position.
🇺🇦🇷🇺 “In the fifth year of the war, Putin continues to fight in Donbas and remains fearful of Ukrainian strikes on Moscow. Five years ago, none of us in this hall could have predicted such a development. This represents a remarkable success for Ukraine. Russia is incapable of launching a major offensive, is losing territory, and is suffering higher losses than it can replenish through mobilization.”
Sikorski’s statement is not only a recognition of Ukraine’s achievements but also a clear message to Western partners that the situation has fundamentally changed in Kyiv’s favor. It emphasizes that time is working against Russia.

The president may be setting up a scapegoat for his failure to negotiate a deal with Iran by blaming countries he knows would never agree to his demands to normalize relations with Israel in the way he’s insisting.

The president may be setting up a scapegoat for his failure to negotiate a deal with Iran by blaming countries he knows would never agree to his demands to normalize relations with Israel in the way he’s insisting.
So he's now saying out loud that Saudi Arabia and Qatar "OWE IT TO US" to join the Abraham Accords — and he's not sure he'll "make a deal" (presumably with Iran) if they don't.
Again, the war in Iran and the Abraham Accords have absolutely nothing to do with each other. If anything, our involvement dragged the Gulf nations into the crosshairs — Iranian missiles hit their oil sites and ports, and we weren't exactly able to fully shield them.

RT @NSTRIKE1231: 🇺🇦 Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov (often referred to as Fedorov in some contexts) emphasized the importance of strengthening coordination with key partners ahead of the upcoming Ramstein format meeting.
🇩🇪🇬🇧 He held discussions with German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, UK Defense Minister John Healey, and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
The main priorities outlined for the next Ramstein meeting include: additional contributions to the PURL mechanism and the purchase of PAC-3 missiles through the JUMPSTART initiative, the supply of extended-range artillery ammunition under the Czech Initiative, and increased financing for the production of Ukrainian drones.
This statement highlights Ukraine’s clear focus on critical capabilities — air defense, long-range strikes, and domestic drone production — as the war enters a decisive phase. Strengthening these areas through international cooperation is essential for maintaining momentum on the battlefield.

At the same time, negotiations are set to begin on the future sale of more advanced Jas 39E model aircraft to Ukraine. The purchase of these additional jets will be financed through an EU loan.
This decision marks an important step in strengthening Ukraine’s air force capabilities. The combination of free donations and long-term acquisitions financed by the EU demonstrates Sweden’s strong commitment to supporting Ukraine both immediately and in the long term.
