“I don't want to be a conspiracy theorist, Katie, but here's the thing. Mr. Musk has done this before.” Retired Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling tells Katie Phang that Musk previously shut down Starshield because he disagreed with Zelenskyy, then connects that allegation to Trump's latest ceasefire demands.

Despite Healy's constant justifying interruptions, Mark gets the point across -- when there is a direct threat to American democracy, you gotta tell that story. Not use the passive voice, avoid the term "lie" or otherwise tiptoe around the issue because you don't want to be seen as partisan.

Scoop: I obtained audio of an explosive meeting in which Bari Weiss' handpicked foreign editor unleashed in a tirade against her journalists, in which she defended her decisions and warned that "insubordination" is "legal grounds for firing." Details in @status.news: www.status.news/p/bari-weiss...

Today’s favourite #warart Dazzle-ships in Drydock at Liverpool, by Edward Wadsworth, 1919 Craig Moore on Facebook @dreadships.bsky.social #navalhistory #maritimehistory
Four dock workers cleaning the hull of a merchant ship in dry dock. The ship is wearing dazzle camouflage, and the painting has arranged the sides of the dock and other ships wearing dazzle in the back in such a way as to blend the picture creating some serious eye strain.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

14 Sept 1942 // Destroyer HMS Zulu was sunk by Italian air attack with 39 men killed or missing during Operation Agreement, a commando raid on Tobruk. She had earlier assisted sister ship HMS Sikh, sunk the same day in the same disastrous operation. (IWM FL 21966). #RoyalNavy #WW2 #NavalHistory
Royal Navy destroyer HMS Zulu. Imperial War Museum image: FL 21966. A destroyer in the open sea, viewed from broad on the port bow in a photograph probably taken from another vessel alongside. To judge from the residual wake along her port side she has just slowed to a near stop after a fast run.
