Safe to say Charles Leclerc isn't a fan of qualifying under these new regulations: "I honestly can’t stand qualifying, it’s a f**king joke! I go faster in corners, throttle earlier, for f**k’s sake, i'm losing everything in the straight!" #JapaneseGP

Trump ended military support for Ukraine. It was a direct betrayal of the Budapest Memorandum. But now it gets even worse. European nations raised $750 million to buy U.S. weapons for Ukraine. They sent the money. And now Trump refuses to deliver because of the war he started with Iran. A war involving Iran is no longer just about the Middle East. It is reshaping the battlefield in Ukraine as well.

For a country that claims it doesn’t need allies, the U.S. sure complains a lot about NATO countries not joining its war of choice.

This is Wild. Deutsche Bank has developed an index that helps to predict the next TACO by Trump. It has proven effective in previous big Trump pivots. The "Pressure index" combines one-month change in approval ratings, one-year inflation expectations and performance of the S&P 500 & t-bill yields. The higher it goes, the greater the chances of 🌮

🇺🇸🇺🇦 On the Prioritized Ukraine Requirements List (PURL): It's important to remember that the United States previously modified the Foreign Military Sales delivery schedule for Ukraine benefit, giving them priority for PAC-3 MSE & AMRAAM over all other FMS customers. This is a legal authority that exists in the US arms export control regime, and it exists in other countries too. Germany modified the IRIS-T delivery schedule to put Ukraine ahead of Egypt, for example. That was a temporary measure though, and it was done with the mutual understanding that after it concluded, Ukraine was going to be back in the queue with everyone else. If you prioritize one country over other customers, who are paying, then you won't have any other customers after very long. The US retains the right to modify the delivery schedule for their own requirements. That's something FMS customers agree to when the sign a standard Letter of Offer & Acceptance. If they don't like that provision they can attempt to negotiate it, or they can shop elsewhere. The authority can't be legitimate in one scenario but illegitimate in another, it's just one tool in the toolbox for the US Government to pursue their perceived interests. It remains a huge mistake for the Trump Admin to be unwilling to commit substantial grant security assistance to Ukraine. PURL is a rather tortured instrument to deliver security assistance, but its the instrument that we have. There's no evidence of any recent changes to delivery schedules for defense articles purchased via PURL. WaPo's claim of Congress being notified of funds being "diverted" is not substantiated. If and when additional information becomes available, further assessments about the Trump Admin's policy decisions can be made.

Another official warns that while the U.S. may be able to capture the island, holding onto it for an extended period of time will require many more soldiers and an extended period of fighting - far beyond the four-to-six week window that Washington has told the public the Iran War would last.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump appears to be leaning toward ordering a “major ground operation” against Iran, involving the seizure of Iran’s Kharg Island in the Northern Persian Gulf, with Washington convinced Tehran will buckle under such military pressure, an official from one of the countries mediating between the U.S. and Iran tells The Times of Israel.

This is the inside of an LNG cargo tank on a modern LNG carrier. It may look like a metallic maze, but every layer is carefully engineered to safely contain gas at -162°C. Most modern LNG ships use the Gaztransport & Technigaz membrane system, where the tank is built directly into the ship’s hull using a layered containment system rather than separate spherical tanks. In the heart of this system is the primary containment. This is the layer that directly holds the LNG. It is made from thin corrugated materials such as stainless steel or Invar (a nickel-steel alloy). The corrugated design is critical because it allows the material to expand and contract under extreme cold without cracking or failing. It’s a cryogenic material because LNG is extremely cold. Behind this sits the insulation system, which is what is most visible in the image. These are prefabricated insulation boxes made from materials like reinforced polyurethane foam or perlite-filled panels. Their role is to minimize heat entering the tank and maintain the extremely low temperature required to keep the gas in liquid form. Next is the secondary containment system, which acts as a backup safety layer. In the unlikely event that the primary barrier fails, this layer prevents the LNG from reaching the ship’s hull. It is typically made from composite materials such as Triplex, combining aluminum foil and fiberglass for strength and impermeability. There is also a secondary layer of insulation that adds further thermal protection and structural support, ensuring stability throughout the voyage. All these layers sit against the ship’s inner hull, which is shielded from the extreme cold. Without this protection, the hull steel would become brittle and unsafe. In simple terms, the primary barrier holds the LNG, the secondary barrier provides backup protection, and the insulation keeps everything cold and stable. What you’re looking at is not just a tank, but a highly engineered cold containment system that makes global LNG transportation possible.
