@clashreport It's either a joke or propaganda. Trump clearly stated multiple times that it's still not the time to go out and stay at home. Reza Pahlavi, the leader of transition also has told everyone to stay at home for now until he announces the moment.

The U.S. and Israel expected that their attacks would spark a mass uprising in Iran and quickly bring down the government, but that hasn’t happened. Intelligence officials had already doubted this strategy, and other ideas like using Kurdish forces were also dropped. For now, the most likely outcome is that the current regime stays in power.

Open Letter to the Supreme Court of the United States and the Office of the President January 10, 2026 Dear Honorable Justices of the Supreme Court and President Donald J. Trump, As a concerned American citizen (@Coffey3C1on X), I write to highlight a profound missed opportunity in our nation's civic education: the chance to harness the wisdom of our greatest Supreme Court justices to foster a deeper, unified understanding of the Constitution among our youth and fellow citizens. We have been blessed with brilliant minds like Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Justice Antonin Scalia—icons who transcended ideology to illuminate the law's core principles. Imagine if we had captured them on camera, in a lecture walking through the Bill of Rights: Justice Ginsburg explaining how these amendments protect non-majoritarian rights, ensuring every citizen's liberties against the whims of the majority; or Justice Scalia detailing the First Amendment's religion clauses, clarifying why protections for conscience sometimes appear to favor faith yet ultimately safeguard all from government coercion or hostility—balancing rulings on school prayer and beyond to preserve true freedom. Such lectures, shown to every student first in middle school and then again as seniors, could bridge divides, counter misinformation, and remind us "who we are" as a people governed by enduring principles. Interviews and speeches exist, but their integration into curricula is too often left to those who may prioritize agendas over impartiality. We need a national initiative: mandatory, accessible video series from past and current justices, produced under federal oversight, to make constitutional education a cornerstone of American identity. This isn't about politics—it's about citizenship. By archiving and mandating these teachings, we honor justices like RBG and Scalia while equipping future generations to uphold our Republic. I urge SCOTUS and the Executive Branch to collaborate on this, perhaps through the Federal Judicial Center or Department of Education, to get Americans on the same pageIt may seem a small idea, but in an era of great division, rediscovering our shared constitutional foundation could change everything. Thank you for considering this call to action. Sincerely, Charles R. Coffey II (@Coffey3C1) @SCOTUSblog @USSupremeCourt @POTUS #CivicEducation #SCOTUS #Constitution #BillOfRights

Your confidence is misplaced. I wrote it, and asked Copilot to do a final fix on spelling and grammar, which was minimal, given that I had gone over it several times over the course of a day. Believe it or not, there are people out here who can write well, who know things, and who can communicate effectively. In the writings I produce, the framing, the facts and concepts, almost all of the word choices and structure, are invariably my own. I do depend on both @grok, and Copilot, as the most awesome spelling, concept, grammar checkers ever conceived. That is why, you will also find posts where I clearly credit AIs for their work, where I am less confident in my concepts, and more typically, seeking the addition of examples that I am aware of, but nowhere near familiar enough to name or define. @Grok I am more interested in the concept here, the aspect of human nature that leads people to doubt the competence in others. I know that there can be many causes, from jealousy to outright denial of the concepts on offer. Could you please explain to us why people go for this type of Argumentum ad competentia carens denial? I can't do this, so you must not have. Thank you, Grok. Competentia caret, ergo de mea dubitare debet. That's another T-shirt.

JUST IN 🔴 The Israeli cabinet is holding an emergency phone meeting following the Iranian strikes on Arad and Dimona, according to Channel 14’s Noam Amir. I think the Islamic regime just made a big mistake.

Calling it naked propaganda is rich coming from a publication who cheered decades of one sided storytelling as high art. The moment a film refuses to bend to their ideological script, the meltdown begins. But the truth is, Dhurandhar didn’t lose momentum, it just exposed how fragile some wannabe critics are when the narrative stops going their way.

The sequel to Bollywood’s biggest hit, the violent spy saga Dhurandhar: The Revenge is a naked piece of political propaganda that lacks the momentum of its predecessor. Our review: bit.ly/4uMLcri

An Iranian woman films her neighborhood being bombed by Israel. As she seeks cover, Israel strikes again, in what appears to be a double-tap strike. The woman films her own death. Some Iranians in the diaspora dance and celebrate this, believing these are democracy bombs...

APs are getting easier, but they are still highly meritocratic compared to not just high school grades but college grades. Most students who get an A in a college class would be lucky to get a 3 on the corresponding AP.
Michael Torres@MindofTorres

This is what grade inflation looks like. AP exams suddenly became easier. So when your local school, district, or state touts record AP participation and passage rates ... now you know why. Source: fordhaminstitute.org/national/comme…

My mom just called me from Iran through her landline. I haven’t spoken to her since February. She said that Israel and the US are bombing the regime nonstop. They taped all the windows because the building shakes constantly. I asked if any civilians are getting hurt, and she replied “No, No, No. No normal civilians are getting hurt” Everyone is hanging in there and counting the days for this regime to end and for the return of the Shah. 🇮🇷
