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.

CNN is about to travel the same dark path of WaPo and CBS News. They will say it's not true. They will ask you to ignore what you see and disbelieve what you hear. Instead, I suggest you support independent media. You can start with Democracy Docket but there are many others. demdock.com/4w6emld

Trump has a MASSIVE crowd on hand for his deranged July 4 rant. It's EASILY in the low hundreds. Kudos to him, I'd thought this would be a totally HUMILIATING night for him.

Does Trump mean this Ken Paxton? • Indicted for securities fraud • Impeached by Texas Republicans • Accused of bribery • Investigated by the FBI • Sued by his own whistleblowers • Accused of abusing office • Tried to overturn the 2020 election Texas Republicans impeached him 121-23.

Why are we not more upset/angry about SCOTUS 86ing the Voting Rights Act yesterday? In a single illegal, immoral, poorly argued (Alito) decision they have disenfranchised Black, Brown and Indigenous voters. This should enrage all of us and have us determined to fight this as best we can.

Seems to me like Trump is desperately begging Iran to sign a replica of the Obama JCPOA he tore up. All for the low low price of thousands dead, global instability, high energy prices, and a toll on ships through the once-free strait of Hormuz.

You always have to pay attention to what is actually happening, not what Trump says is happening. Because Trump lies about everything. Too often media serves as Trump’s daily stenographer, passing along his propaganda verbatim.
