🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱 Photos of Iran's strikes on Gulf bases show the hangars where America keeps its spare parts burned... which leaves the US Navy with a one and done war Those canopies in Bahrain and the UAE held the parts that keep jets flying, so planes now go feet dry with no repair line behind them, flying from carriers parked so far out that the sortie math barely works. Bobby Jones, retired Navy commander, says the enemy below the surface is the number one threat to anyone on a ship: "That sub can be involved in all the other areas of warfare while making you the primary target." An unlocated sub pulls a ship or two plus aircraft off the blockade just to hunt it, and a carrier turning into the wind to launch can't maneuver. Bobby expects Israel to open the next round on a weekday, when a state of emergency can still land before October 27. @WeTheBrandon

🇺🇸 Washington’s multi-front talks are starting to look like one big bargaining table between the 2 ongoing wars. Witkoff is back in Moscow, some Russian diesel restrictions are easing, and Iran remains in the background. The pattern suggests energy and military pressure are becoming bargaining chips across two conflicts. Trump wants progress on both wars before the election, while Moscow retains leverage over oil markets and ties to Tehran. Meanwhile, Kyiv’s strikes on Russian energy remain one of its few tools to hurt Moscow, giving Washington a potential concession to offer. The risk? Ukraine’s battlefield gains become currency in talks over Iran, while Tehran watches Washington pursue side deals. The more these conflicts intertwine, the harder it becomes to trust that any deal is final. Source: Reuters, CNN / Writer: Lucas

🇸🇦 🇸🇾 🇾🇪 Syria is reportedly under heavy pressure to send troops into Yemen... and without a real plan, they’d be walking into a slaughter. Malcolm Nance says Syria’s battle hardened anti tank crews could pick apart Houthi positions from four or five kilometers out, but rushing pickup trucks into those valleys gets them butchered, while Saudi Arabia keeps bombing from the air like the US did in Iraq: “You got to pry them out man to man. The Apaches can’t do all this.” Hiring someone else’s veterans won’t fix a war plan Riyadh still doesn’t have. @MalcolmNance

🇺🇸 A tale of two rallies on the very same day. Today Trump drew a packed house in Iowa on his midterm blitz campaign trail. But the same can't be said for the Democrats.

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 Flattening Kharg Island and Iran’s refineries could add $2 to $3 a gallon at the pump almost overnight. Malcolm Nance, the former US Navy intelligence officer, says if Washington moves to knock Iran out of the energy market for good, Tehran has already promised the Gulf’s oil sites would burn next, and the UAE alone has shot down around 500 ballistic missiles so far: “Every one of you will be paying if you’re American. You are going to be paying $2 to $3 a gallon more almost immediately.” How many interceptors does the Gulf have left before it goes Winchester and runs completely dry? @MalcolmNance

🚨🇺🇸 Trump reportedly showed up with makeup on his hands again today... and this time the discoloration was visible on BOTH of them To absolutely nobody’s surprise... the official story is still handshakes and aspirin, which raises one very obvious question about who exactly he’s been greeting with his LEFT hand.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 The harrowing firsthand account of the night an Iranian missile hit a US barracks in Jordan and killed three Americans: troops say they could hear them calling for help from inside the flames... The accounts come from service members at Muwaffaq Salti who spoke anonymously because they say they were threatened under military law for talking. Their version: the base was overcrowded, incoming fire had outrun the alarms for months, an Iranian missile beat the interceptors and hit the housing, and the emergency response wasn't there. Four more were evacuated. The people on the ground say they were surprised it wasn't worse. Days later the survivors were told they were going home, sat in the terminal, and got ordered to stay. The Pentagon confirmed three dead in July and nothing since. The troops just told the rest of it. Source: @MeidasTouch / Writer: Daniel

🇺🇸 Trump CALLS OUT LeBron James for practicing his GOLF SWING during the national anthem Before the game, the Lakers star was filmed casually mimicking a golf swing while everyone else stood to attention.

🇮🇷 🇺🇸 Iran’s missiles are hiding in mountain launchers that pop up, fire and vanish before anyone can find them. Anthony Aguilar says Tehran has rebuilt its ballistic arsenal and tucked its anti ship missiles deep inland, where they can still reach the Strait of Hormuz, and the first targets in a counterattack would be US bases like Prince Sultan in Saudi Arabia, Al Udeid in Qatar, and camps in Kuwait and Jordan: “Once they pop up, fire and go back down, you’re not going to find them because they literally turn them off.” You can’t bomb what you can’t find, and the troops at those bases are the ones who pay for it.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 INSANE Leaked July footage from Jebel Ali shows an Iranian missile get past US interceptors and land next to American troops sprinting for cover It's another clip from the MeidasTouch trove, and the part that matters is the first few seconds: the interceptor launches, misses, and the missile comes through anyway. That's the same failure sources described in Jordan, where a ballistic missile beat the defenses and killed three airmen in a barracks the same month. Jebel Ali is the Navy's busiest port call in the Gulf. The Pentagon has said Patriot and THAAD stocks won't recover before 2030 and CSIS estimates 61% of the Patriot inventory is already gone. Every miss on tape is one of those. Writer: Daniel t.co/p0Y45HBtNZ

🇺🇸 Google CEO finally puts his foot down on Trump’s map renaming spree! After successfully pushing Google Maps to adopt "Lake America" and "Gulf of America”, Trump tried his luck with the Atlantic Ocean.

🇺🇸Trump calls for a WNBA BOYCOTT over national anthem walk-offs!

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Never-before-seen footage shows an Iranian missile hitting a US base in the UAE just meters from American troops standing in the open The clip is part of the trove service members and contractors leaked this week, undated beyond "earlier in the conflict." The people in it had no shelters to run to: the troops who shared it said the UAE bases got no warning the war was starting, only the security teams were armed, and some dug their own foxholes while others hid in hotels ordering takeout. The Pentagon has released nothing like it in eight months, which is why the people who filmed it say they went around the chain of command. Watch where they're standing when it lands, then remember the November strike plan could send them back out there. Writer: Daniel t.co/rvkdew7Esg

🇸🇦🇦🇪🇮🇷 Washington says more oil is leaving the Gulf than before the war... an early assessment has the UAE down 35% and the Houthis doing four times the damage to Saudi Arabia that Iran did in 40 days The arithmetic runs the other way. Take Iran’s 14% off the top, and by Larry’s math, if the Gulf producers lost even 30% of their capacity, the most the strait can move is about 60% of its pre war flow. Larry Johnson, former CIA, says there are only two ways the official number works: “There is no way and there’s no way in hell. Okay. Those are the two ways.” Larry expects the strikes once markets close Friday, and he says Iran’s 31 regional commanders are already cleared to fire if Tehran goes silent, so the next round hits an oil system Aramco’s own chief says needs at least two years to repair. If the kingdom cracks, it starts dumping Treasuries to pay its bills, and nobody in Washington has run those numbers. @newsonof @WeTheBrandon

🇮🇱 🇮🇷 Israel could go after Fordow, Arak and Natanz as soon as this weekend. Anthony Aguilar lays out the plan he expects, with US strikes along Iran’s southern coast, Baluch and Kurdish fighters stirring trouble on the borders to pull the IRGC away, and Israeli jets hitting the nuclear sites that last year’s strikes left standing: “It’s likely going to happen before the US midterms, likely this weekend or soon thereafter on Monday the 26th.” If he’s right, Israelis could wake up to a new war the day before they vote.

🇺🇸 Trump calls Vivek “very smart” after noting he only got about 2% against him The number is a bit low compared with his Iowa result, but he never broke out of the single digits nationally. Not sure if that was a compliment or a subtle mocking 😅 Writer: Lucas t.co/1dC3Cz1Cde

🇺🇸Trump: We will "produce more diesel and more gasoline at RECORD levels." Trump announced in Iowa that his administration is using the Defense Production Act to inject $150M directly into American fuel refining capacity. Addressing the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, he said that the U.S. holds vast oil reserves and will knock the HELL out of enemies targeting them! Strong words.

🇮🇱 🇮🇷 🇺🇸 Israel’s next strike plan reportedly goes after Iran’s power plants and water facilities... and Iran has every reason to answer in kind. Retired Green Beret Lt. Col. Anthony Aguilar says the US pulling assets out of Al Udeid points to another round of escalation, one where both sides stop holding back on civilian infrastructure: “We’re about to enter the phase of total war where power plants, desalination facilities, power generation, civil infrastructure bases, headquarters, those type of things are going to be struck harder.” Every water plant on Israel’s list puts one across the Gulf in Iran’s crosshairs too.
