On the opening day of conflict, the Trump administration reportedly utilized an untested missile, a Precision Strike Missile (PrSM), in an attack near an Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps facility in southern Iran. This strike, which killed at least 21 and injured over 100, coincided with a separate incident where 175 people were killed at a school in Minab, an event President Trump attributed to Iran. Analysis by experts and video examination indicated the PrSM’s signature of tungsten pellets, consistent with its design to maximize damage, was evident at the site of the sports hall and adjacent elementary school. The weapon’s recent transition from prototype to deployment raises questions about its combat reliability, though U.S. Central Command stated their forces do not target civilians.

The notion of a massive military complex being constructed beneath a new White House ballroom, reportedly initiated under the Trump administration, has certainly sparked a considerable amount of discussion and speculation. It’s an idea that conjures images straight out of spy thrillers, with whispers of hardened data centers, AI operations hubs, and, of course, the ever-present specter of a bunker. The sheer scale of such a project, and its implications, naturally lead to a flood of questions and concerns.
One of the most striking aspects of this development is the perceived contradiction between building something so secret and then having information about it become public.… Continue reading
It’s striking to learn that, according to available information, blue states face significantly greater hurdles in securing disaster funding under the Trump administration, with some suggestions indicating it’s as much as three times harder. This disparity is not merely a matter of slightly longer wait times or more paperwork; it points to a potentially systemic issue where political leanings seem to influence the allocation of essential federal aid during times of crisis. The data suggests a stark contrast in how requests are handled based on a state’s political affiliation.
The approval rate for disaster funding requests from states with Democratic governors and senators under Trump has been notably low, hovering around 23 percent in a recent assessment period.… Continue reading
Former Customs and Border Patrol “commander at large” Greg Bovino refused to relinquish official government social media accounts after his retirement, claiming the followers were his personal following.

The upcoming “No Kings” protests will encompass a vast spectrum of anti-Trump grievances, reflecting the depth and breadth of opposition to the administration’s policies and actions.
