A massive FBI data breach. Taxpayer-funded Trump ads. Midterm warning signs. Rates surging. Marines injured in an Iranian strike. Russia’s attacks. And some of Trump’s most devoted supporters finally turning on him. Plus, an important note from us about these Bulletins and the next five weeks.

If you put Republicans in charge of the presidency, they blame Congress for their failures. If they also control Congress, they blame the courts. If they control the courts, they blame their state. If they control their state, they blame a secret shadowy deep state, NGOs & media.

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.
