25 years ago today, George W. Bush signed the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force into law. Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against it, warning it would be a blank check for forever wars. History has proven her lonely and courageous vote right.

The U.S. owes $40 trillion in debt. Everyone has an opinion about why. But there’s one question you almost never hear asked: Who’s actually getting paid?

⭕️ Sudan: Hundreds Killed as Army Offensive to Reopen Key Kordofan Highway Stalls

The Sudanese Armed Forces launched a large-scale multi-axis offensive Saturday aimed at reopening the El-Obeid–Dilling road in North Kordofan -– one of the war’s most contested logistical corridors. It has triggered some of the deadliest fighting in recent months, according to Sudan War Monitor’s geolocated analysis.

SAF and allied former Darfur rebel Joint Forces advanced from El-Obeid southward through Kazgil and Hamadi toward the RSF stronghold of El-Debeibat before apparently withdrawing. 
Control of Hamadi remained unconfirmed as of Sunday. 

A senior Joint Force commander, Major-General Hussein Abdulrahman, was killed in the fighting, a significant loss that may have contributed to the retreat, according to the report.

All three sides – the SAF, the Joint Force, and the RSF – claimed victory. The RSF also claimed over 500 enemy fighters killed and 85 vehicles seized.

Repeated SAF attempts to reopen the El-Obeid–Dilling road have failed, with RSF ambushes, mines, and entrenched positions, particularly around El-Debeibat, preventing any sustained advance.

Full report linked below ⬇️
Sudan War Monitor
@sudanwarmonitor
The offensive must be understood within the broader context of repeated SAF attempts to reopen the El-Obeid–Dilling corridor, a key logistical route linking North and South Kordofan. Previous efforts to secure this highway have consistently failed due to RSF ambushes, mine warfare, and entrenched positions, particularly around El-Debeibat, which has served as a major RSF stronghold.
