‘Fun fact’: Dana Bash amused as GOP senator's Biden-era block may now cost her Senate seat rawstory.com/mississippi-sen…
Yhdysvaltojen nykysenaattorien mediaani-ikä on muuten 66 vuotta eli puolet on sitä nuorempia ja puolet vanhempia. Vanhin senaattori on Chuck Grassley (93 v.), joka oli ollut jo kuusi vuotta senaattorina, kun nuorin eli Jon Ossoff (39 v.) syntyi.
Nyt on muuten Suomen taivaalla hyvin harvinainen tiedustelukone. Näitä tutkatietoja haistelevia Combat Sent -koneita on maailmassa vain kaksi kappaletta.
Jos et ole koskaan nähnyt säikähtänyttä miestä…
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a video message vowing to fight efforts in Congress to impeach him and defending the Iran war as 'courageous and historic' after voters punished Republicans over it in this week’s midterm elections reut.rs/4z3cYk6
Rjazanissa palaa. Taas. Jalostamo on yksi Venäjän isoimpia. Se tuottaa bensiiniä, dieseliä, lentopetrolia ja raskasta polttoöljyä. Se on myös tärkeä Moskovan polttoainehuollolle.
Harmittava takaisku. Etten sanoisi, perin harmittava.
Tämä on demokraateille herkkua: Hegsethin erottama amiraali Nancy Lacore ponkaisi kongressiin.
Heh.
The tables have turned.
🇺🇸 PETE HEGSETH FIRED HER. NOW SHE'S ABOUT TO TAKE A REPUBLICAN SEAT IN CONGRESS!
This story is almost too beautiful to be true.
Nancy Lacore, a three-star U.S. Navy vice admiral with 35 years of military service, is on the verge of a stunning Democratic victory in South Carolina's 1st Congressional District.
In August 2025, Trump's Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth removed Lacore from her position as commander of the Navy Reserve. No public explanation was given.
But instead of disappearing quietly, she entered politics.
And she chose one of the most difficult battlegrounds imaginable: a traditionally Republican district previously represented by MAGA firebrand Nancy Mace.
Now, with more than 98% of ballots counted, Lacore is leading Republican Jenny Costa Honeycutt by approximately 0.7 percentage points. A recount is expected because the margin is so narrow.
Think about the irony.
Trump's administration removed a decorated admiral from military leadership. Now that same admiral could help Democrats take control of the House of Representatives.
Hegseth took away her command. American voters may give her a seat in Congress.
Sometimes political revenge doesn't require a single angry word. Just a ballot.

Ei huono.
Today, I sent a letter putting New Jersey’s port and terminal operators on notice: importing Russian diesel violates federal law and could carry serious civil and criminal consequences.
New Jersey will not stand by while Donald Trump supports Vladimir Putin at the expense of Americans. Instead of lowering costs, these imports help finance Putin’s war against Ukraine and a campaign of violence and terror that endangers our servicemembers abroad.
As a Navy veteran, I cannot let that stand unchallenged. Our ports must not be complicit.

This is a must-read, from a man who defected from the Communist bloc to the USA 40 years ago. "What worries me the most is not Trump himself or those who do his bidding, but rather the willingness of so many ordinary citizens to look away."

The Trump administration is openly meddling in European democracies to promote far-right political parties that support Putin and to advance the commercial interests of Trump allies. trib.al/TZS4KWn
Näyttää siltä, että ensimmäinen Putinin Trumpille lupaamista dieseltankkereista olisi saapunut Yhdysvaltoihin. maps.greenpeace.org/maps/gpu…
Kstovossa palaa. Kyseinen NORSIn jalostamo kuuluu viiden suurimman joukkoon Venäjällä. Ukrainan droonit ovat lämmittäneet sitä kymmenkunta kertaa vajaan kolmen vuoden aikana. Nyt näyttää osuneen oikein hyvin.
Harmittava takaisku. Etten sanoisi jotta perin harmittava.
Heh. Yli 800 ihmistä seuraa suorassa striimissä, kun survivalisti Petteri Veijonen testaa metsässä juuri valmistunutta pressusaunaansa. Hyvät löylyt.
