eliminate EV subsidies, ban cheap overseas EVs, ban EV component import, deport people bringing battery technology to the US, pay billions to kill clean energy projects, end fuel economy standards, and then do THIS is such an elaborate prank on the American people you almost have to respect it

You are definitely onto something with the "300-brain" hypothesis. @bradleyonishi covered Stephen Miller's "why are antifa freaks?" speech. It dawned on me that he is effectively describing hunchback Ephialtes and the "Persians" from 300.

ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent. There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's Jeremy Rogalski found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off. Renee Good all over again.

We can see this in the ICE flight data. Domestic “round-up” flights are spiking, and some activist flight watchers report the flights are getting fuller. But deportation and removal flights remain steady. This means the concentration camps are getting packed to the brim. It’s awful to comprehend.

It’s the 20-year anniversary of this piece — I spent a day with Barack Obama & wrote this article that generated the most feedback of any article I’ve written in my whole life. At the time, I was berated for writing it. But I’m proud of it — it predicted everything that subsequently happened.

Barack Obama talks a great progressive game. But his record so far shows he has a proven ability to mix charisma with deference to the establishment.

🚨 Drone strike near Dubai airport briefly halts operations just as Dubai airspace reopened

Video circulating online shows a drone strike at Dubai International Airport (DXB) on Saturday, triggering an explosion and smoke and forcing a temporary suspension of airport operations, according to AP.

Dubai’s airspace had already been closed earlier in the week as the regional war escalated, suspending flights for several days across the UAE and neighboring states.

Airport authorities said operations partially resumed after the brief halt, though airlines — including Emirates and other international carriers — are currently operating reduced schedules.

Dubai International Airport is usually the world’s busiest airport for international passenger traffic, handling more than 95 million travelers in 2025.

Emirates Support

@EmiratesSupport
Our post from 11:08am Dubai time regarding operational status is no longer current, and has been deleted to avoid causing unnecessary confusion.

Emirates has resumed operations. Passengers who have confirmed bookings for this afternoon’s flights may proceed to the airport. This includes customers transiting in Dubai, if their connecting flight is also operating.

Customers can check the flight schedule for upcoming flights, as well as book seats to travel: http://emirat.es/nowoperating

Emirates continues to monitor the situation, and we will develop our operational schedule accordingly.

We would like to thank our customers for their understanding and patience. The safety of our passengers and crew is our highest priority and will not be compromised.
