I'd call this a stunning admission from the @AP that they naively treated casualty data from the Gaza Ministry of Health as trustworthy. Let me explain with (a 🧵): 1/ apnews.com/article/israel…

1/11 Kharg Island is a 5-mile strip of coral in the northern Persian Gulf, but it handles ~90% of Iran's crude oil exports and earns Tehran the bulk of its ~$78B/year in energy revenue. President Trump called it Iran's "crown jewel." He's right.

Iran agreed secret shoulder-fired missile deal with Russia, FT reports.
China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea are engaging in unprecedented security cooperation that is making each of them more capable in their ongoing or prospective spheres of aggression.

Gross. And this is what passes for a serious foreign-policy thinker on the left.

Worth flagging what this @wsj piece by @JoannaStern glosses over. Focusing on the convenience and “cool factor” of Chinese EVs misses the core consumer protection and data security risks that led many countries to restrict or ban them in the first place.
These vehicles are sensor-dense platforms that collect data on drivers, passengers, and surrounding environments—often without meaningful consent—and are governed by PRC laws that compel data access and sharing with the state. Ignoring that context leaves readers with an incomplete and misleading picture of why Chinese EVs raise red flags beyond trade or competitiveness.

Total moralist when it comes to America, Israel and their allies.
“Who am I to judge?” when it comes to their enemies.

To the contrary, Iranians are caught between the regime’s massacres and the regime’s mass killings.

Iranians are caught between regime repression and foreign aggression.

What should change now:
Max pressure on the regime.
Max support for protestors.
Targeted military & cyber strikes on missile and repression forces.
Diplomatic isolation—not normalization.
Information support for protesters.
No deals. No sanctions relief until Iran is free.

LEFT: U.N. “human rights expert” Francesca Albanese says she's silent on slaughter of Iranian protestors as it's beyond her Palestinian areas mandate, to which she is “rigorously dedicated.”
RIGHT: Albanese last week condemning the United States for its actions in Venezuela.

I’m old enough to remember when experts said a strike on Iran’s nuclear program would lead to a “rally around the flag” effect and strengthen the regime.

Surreal scenes in Tehran, #Iran tonight. Police equipment is in flames. And the Iranian people want to take their country back.

Channel 4 international news editor admits that a dual standard is applied to Israel. Journos couldn’t get into Gaza either, yet we had wall-to-wall 24/7 coverage for 2 years.
Happy to report Hamas-curated propaganda, not happy to report on the Iran protests.

@simon_schama @DavQuinn Foreign journalists can’t get in to Iran. We work with social media footage we can verify. Many of us are trying to get into Venezuela. We do our best to cover simultaneous crises. Iran is not being minimised. It is objectively difficult to cover.

The Islamist Republic loves Tucker. So does Qatar’s Islamist regime. So do Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, Maduro and Putin. That’s a remarkable fan club for anyone claiming to stand for America.

Iranian State TV is playing old clips of Tucker Carlson, no comments or reports on the ongoing protests or nationwide internet and telephone blackout.

It's funny how the anti-Israel crowd speaks about international law, human rights, and idealism until its their allies murdering protesters in the streets.

South Africa is currently holding a naval exercise with Russia, China, and Iran, in case anyone was wondering what Pretoria's position is on Iran gunning down protesters in the streets, shutting down the Internet and phone lines, etc.

BREAKING @J_Insider via @HaleyCohen19: "Mamdani silent as pro-Hamas group protests near synagogue"
"A synagogue canceled services while nearby schools announced early closures; Dem state Assemblyman Sam Berger said the area was ‘completely upended’"

Activists protested outside a synagogue, chanting, “Say it loud, say it clear, we support Hamas here.”
Whatever the amnesia surrounding 10/7, the truth must never be forgotten: Hamas murdered, maimed, mutilated, raped, and tortured thousands of innocent Israelis. It is—and has always been—a barbaric oppressor of its own people.
Support for Hamas is not an expression of empathy for Palestinians; it is an expression of antipathy toward Jews and Israelis. Hate has no place in NYC.

Congratulations to @TuckerCarlson for being broadcasted on Iran State TV run by the IRGC, a designated terrorist organization in the US. This means the most vicious terrorist regime approves of his message. He is now "Islamist terrorist approved".

The Islamic Republic's survival strategy appears to be shut down the Internet, cut the phone lines, shoot people in the streets and broadcast clips of Tucker Carlson on television.

The size and intensity of the protests tonight in Tehran are all the more remarkable when you consider each person knew they were risking their life.

While Khamenei scrounges $7 for the Iranian citizen, he smuggled $1 billion to Hezbollah in the first 10 months of 2025.
That’s enough to pay each terrorist a monthly salary of over $1,000. No wonder Iranians chant, “Neither Gaza nor Lebanon, my life for Iran.”
