Breaking news: The Pentagon’s public tally of troops wounded during the Iran war was quietly increased by 37 without explanation from the Defense Department.
That includes 29 Navy sailors and eight Marines, according to the Pentagon’s database. wapo.st/4hqpweB

Let's be very clear on this one point.
The President mocking a former President in front of the communist leader of China is the most un-American thing an American president has ever done.
"This is the autopen... it's Biden." 🤣
President Trump shows off the legendary Presidential Walk of Fame to President Xi.

Pls don't overreact to the SCOTUS SAVE database decision
Page 6 of the decision makes clear that we are in the 90 day statutory window when mass changes can't be made to voter lists!
It's a shit decision for the reasons the 3 dissenters say but we can deal w/it. More to come..
Breaking News: The Supreme Court ruled the Trump administration can deploy an expansive voter identification tool, allowing states to hunt for ineligible voters. Critics fear using the system could result in the purging valid voters from state rolls. nyti.ms/3TsCnVE

Could we finish bumblefucking our way through the war in Iran before we start one with Cuba? Thanks
The U.S. Army Reserve is examining whether it can provide the military's Southern Command with police forces, medical personnel and other support units within the next four months, according to an internal Army message reviewed by CBS News.
Though the message makes no reference to Cuba, the request is for continued military planning aimed at Cuba, according to multiple U.S. officials who spoke to CBS News under condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

Won’t matter in most places - existing law prevents almost everyone from purging voter rolls within 90 days of an election.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court lets the Trump administration use a revamped federal voter eligibility database for now. apnews.com/article/save-data…

Cool, cool.
This administration won’t allow US reporters on White House grounds despite a court order, but they’re fine with Chinese Communist media?
America first though, right?
Despite the court order overnight, CNN, MS NOW and Politico reporters are still being blocked from entering the White House grounds today. Yet for Xi’s visit, members of the Chinese state media are present.

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective.
Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive.
Hard to describe how bad this is.
The Chinese have acquired a shipment of F-35 parts that was mistakenly routed through Hong Kong -Bloomberg
The shipment, now in Chinese government hands, includes a cockpit canopy and weapons-bay door.

Hurting the president’s feelings isn’t a national security threat
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, this argument should be chilling.
Trying to limit freedom of the press under the guise of national security is what tinpot dictators do. That’s not how a functioning democracy works.
The Justice Department said that three major national media outlets can be shut out from areas of the White House at the president's will, and because their coverage could be a threat to national security. cnn.it/4h5EoAa

This was the best press conference of either of Trump’s terms. Change my mind.
LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

Republicans went from the party of limited government to “mass surveillance is good because Trump said so” in record time.

Well. Fuck.
New: hackers say they have data on all FBI employees and spouses. I got a sample of 5,000 alleged employees, including name, physical address, phone number, and in some cases spouses. Could be a massive national security and counterintelligence risk 404media.co/we-hacked-the-fb…

That’s going to be awkward for anyone who handles classified information since SI is an access control.
Trump tells the UN he is officially changing the name of Artificial Intelligence to "Super Intelligence" and says all US government documents will now be changed to refer to "SI"

Great job owning the libs, MAGA.
Enjoy your app. 😂😂😂
Good sheep. Baaaa.
A PSA: do NOT download the White House app. It is doing something very weird with the sandbox permissions you give it. Which I’m not sure yet, but is likely against every service term and developer agreement on earth. I downloaded it so you don’t have to onto an air gapped old iPad. It is phoning home, asking for way too much personal data, and attempting to bypass location services permissions. Aside from the propaganda, it’s a security nightmare.
