I ask again, why are national Dems letting Elon "quietly" fund these races? We have two test cases. 2024 when Dems didn't make his money an issue. And 2025 Wisconsin, where they did. Guess which time they won by double digits?

Elon Musk’s America PAC Is Quietly Funding November’s Most Consequential Elections
America PAC’s approach has been unusual: for every dollar it has spent supporting GOP Senate candidates, it has spent almost three dollars attacking Democrats.

NYPD keeps insisting it’s not working with ICE in the narrowest scope of not literally participating in kidnappings but then goes silent when people present evidence of ICE using their precincts/parking lots, of NYPD doing crowd control. Big difference in technical and de facto assistance.

The Saudi-backed offensive in Yemen has run aground: 

Yesterday the Saudi-backed Presidential Leadership Council (PLC), in coordination with Saudi Arabia, launched a counteroffensive called "Dawn of Yemen.”

The first major operation of the counteroffensive was a charge by the Southern Giants Brigades about 20 kilometers down the narrow Bab al Mandeb coastal plain, as 100 Royal Saudi Air Force jets bombed hundreds of targets across Yemen. As of today, the Giants Brigades have been stopped somewhere near the Dhubab airport and have been sustaining heavy missile and drone fire from the adjacent mountains. 

Since the counteroffensive began yesterday, Ansarallah has published two videos showing large scale ballistic missile operations targeting Giants Brigades reinforcements along the narrow strip of southern Yemeni coast in Ras al-Ara.

Concurrently with the launch of Operation Dawn of Yemen yesterday, Ansarallah completed the encirclement of PLC forces in Taiz city. They’re now attempting to claim the remaining mountains that surround it.

⭕️ The U.S. abruptly removed all U.S. long-range bombers deployed to the RAF Fairford airbase in England and returned them to their U.S. home stations over the weekend. The move, which was not explained, comes days after British authorities arrested several individuals over what the officials have claimed was an Iranian plot targeting the base.

Fairford has served as a forward operating location for U.S. Global Strike Command and hosted B-1 bombers used in the war against Iran.
