🇺🇸 🇮🇷 Tucker explores why the Iran war is America’s LEAST POPULAR EVER Foreign policy analyst Stephen Semler: “It’s the most unpopular war since polling began… The Economist and YouGov polled Americans…13% points more people opposed the war than supported it. And over time it’s only gotten more unpopular.” “No New Wars” has been replaced by “war nobody wanted.” That's gonna leave a midterm mark... Source: @TCNetwork / Writer: Marie

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 US intelligence warns Iran has "substantially increased" plots to kill American officials abroad and some are in "advanced stages"... embassies in five countries are now being emptied The Director of National Intelligence reportedly put it in a one-page memo to Rubio and the CIA chief, saying the warning needs to reach more personnel than are currently cleared to see it. State followed by cutting staff in the UAE, Lebanon, Qatar and Jordan after ordering families out of Saudi Arabia Wednesday. The memo names no targets or countries. Trump's line at a recent Florida rally was "we may do another little Operation Epic Fury." Tehran's reply is apparently already in motion, aimed at the diplomats, and the one time this administration pulled embassy staff this fast was the week before February 28...

🇮🇷🇺🇸 The IRGC puts out footage of missiles hitting two supertankers on the US-protected southern route, with one shown dead in the water from an engine-room strike No ship is named and no owner has confirmed a hit, but it's the first picture Tehran has offered of the seven tankers it claims this week, and it shows light anti-ship missiles, the same weapons US strikes reportedly took off the coast at Sirik and Bandar Lengeh.

🇹🇼 TAIWAN IS GETTING HAMMERED by Typhoon Champi, with massive waves reaching up to 26 FEET along the island's eastern coast. At least one person has died, 94 were reported injured in an early count, and more than 77,000 households lost power, with nearly 20,000 still in the dark as of 2 PM. The storm has also forced nearly 1,000 flight cancellations and the evacuation of 1,286 people, while schools, offices, and transport services face major disruptions. Champi reached SUPER TYPHOON strength before weakening as it approached Taiwan, but the footage of enormous waves smashing into coastal infrastructure is absolutely terrifying. And the island is still dealing with the aftermath of its powerful winds and dangerous seas. Writer: Sol t.co/suuxuHgFjV

🚨🇺🇸 $386 million against $158 million in the Texas Senate race, and the Democrat being outspent still leads by 6... the Republican money isn't buying what it used to In Florida, Byron Donalds spent $100 million and watched his favorability fall from 46 to 37, while David Jolly has led or tied in six of the last eight polls for governor, by Rick's count. Rick Wilson, Lincoln Project co founder who spent his career making attack ads, says the weapon has gone dull: "I don't know that money is doing what it used to do." His firm's data has the hard core MAGA base at 15 to 18% of Republicans, a growing share of the rest now call themselves non MAGA Republicans, and many plan to stay home. Rick's warning for the winners: if Democrats take Congress and keep a baseline war on Iran going to protect Israel, they get slaughtered in 2028. @TheRickWilson @wethebrandon

🇺🇸 Navy SEALs ride flooded mini subs through pitch darkness for up to 14 hours, and it’s as miserable as it sounds SEAL Delivery Vehicles fill with seawater the moment they leave the submarine, so the crew rides fully underwater the entire time, packed into a cramped tube and breathing through gear that leaves no bubbles behind. Your body keeps losing heat for hours, even in warm water, so a long ride feels like being stuck in a freezer full of seawater until the job is done. SEAL divers spent FOUR MONTHS clearing Iran’s mines from Hormuz, possibly with SDV help, and some of us still whine when the gym pool is a little chilly😅 Writer: Daniel t.co/eWgHBDwtr8

🇺🇸 In 2024, @NickJFuentes warned Republicans against voting for Trump, he reiterated his reasoning by going down a laundry list of questionable activities by the administration: “This is exactly what I’ve been talking about, and I said it last week; it went viral. I specifically said last week this entire Trump administration is a crime scene. This is a systemic illness. It’s not like it’s isolated. It’s not like all the departments and agencies are basically good, but you’ve got one or two isolated cases of bad behavior. This is a systemic problem.” He brings up some very valid instances that should probably be investigated, but likely won’t be under this Justice Department, or Congress for that matter.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Iraq’s prime minister is reportedly briefed on a US attack within days and Britain’s leader is on the phone to Trump... while Iran tells Reuters it has full access to the Gulf’s internet cables Baghdad has reportedly been told it’s coming, London is calling to raise concerns, and the people close to the decision say it’s already made. What’s left is whether anyone talks Trump out of it. Tehran’s answer is to widen the target list. Two Iranian security officials told Reuters the cables running to military bases, including covert ones, would be hit in ways built to block repairs: “There will be no more red lines.” Reuters notes under 1% of international bandwidth runs through Hormuz, so the Gulf eats that pain first, and it’s already eating the oil: Iran claims two supertankers were struck today and the UAE closed beaches over a slick, on the same day Washington insisted Gulf exports beat pre war levels. Israel is opening its own front, with Netanyahu closing Hebron after two soldiers were killed and ordering a full West Bank lockdown prepared, while Hezbollah shows signs of mobilizing and Ron Lauder tells Israelis “you’re losing everything because of stupidity.” Every leader in the chain is now on the phone with Trump, and the only question left is whether anyone gets through before the aircraft do. @WeTheBrandon

🇧🇬 A journalist in Bulgaria was SHOVED to the ground by a government bodyguard while trying to question the country's parliamentary speaker, and the official convoy simply DROVE AWAY. The footage shows reporter Sonya Koltuklieva opening the door of Mihaela Dotsova's official car before a security officer forcefully pushes her backward, sending her crashing onto the pavement. Koltuklieva suffered a FRACTURED SHOULDER and was hospitalized, while the bodyguard was arrested and charged over the incident. Dotsova later apologized, calling what happened unacceptable.

🚨🇺🇸 American Express is AXING 5% of its workforce, eliminating roughly 3,500 jobs to curb surging costs. CEO Steve Squeri defended the move, saying the job cuts were aimed at making the company “more agile" and it will speed up decision making. The cuts come despite Amex beating Q3 earnings expectations with $4.68 per share and raising its full-year forecast to between $18.30 and $18.60. Source: Bloomberg / Writer: Bri

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱 Pickaxe Mountain sits under roughly 900 feet of granite and dirt, so all six remaining bunker busters stacked down one hole wouldn't reach it... and the only way in is a raid every rehearsal turns into a suicide mission The president keeps naming the MOAB, but it bursts above ground, and the one time it was used in combat, in Afghanistan in 2017, the cave complex was still standing the next morning. Anthony Aguilar, retired Green Beret lieutenant colonel who watched that strike on the live drone feed, says nothing in the arsenal gets to Iran's uranium: "The only way that we could ever hope to defeat, not destroy, but to defeat in terms of getting in seizing enriched uranium from that area is to put boots on the ground." By his count the six bunker busters left can't do it, and the MOAB's real use is against power plants, bridges and water, which is where Iran's lights go out. He reads the Konarak and Sirik strikes as possible groundwork for a landing in Baloch country to stretch the IRGC, so if Washington restarts this war to crack Pickax, it is choosing between a bomb that can't and a raid that won't come home. @WeTheBrandon

🇺🇸 Investors vanished overnight and an ad agency walked away... and $10 memberships are all that's keeping an independent network alive. Cenk Uygur says a funding round for The Young Turks dried up the moment it started, and just days ago an agency dropped the network over claims it's antisemitic, which he calls cover for punishing its criticism of Israel: "That's why we keep telling everybody, TYTcom, because we're surviving on ten bucks at a time." If tens of thousands of $10 memberships can outlast a corporate boycott, who really controls the news now? @cenkuygur

🇺🇸🇫🇷🇳🇱🇮🇶 Air France and Dutch airline KLM got fined for flying Delta-coded flights over Iraq The U.S. Transportation Department fined KLM $320,000 and Air France $105,000 today, and ordered both airlines to stop. The reason is that these flights were sold under Delta’s flight code, which means U.S. safety rules applied to them. And those rules ban U.S. operators from flying through restricted parts of the airspace managed from Baghdad, because of the safety risk. Even so, KLM ran more than 100 of these flights and Air France more than 30, between 2022 and 2025. Spread over 130-plus flights, that works out to less than $3,270 a flight.

🇮🇷 🇪🇺 Oil could hit $200 a barrel if Iran answers strikes on its fields by hitting the Gulf's. Gas prices haven't come down in seven months, and Cenk Uygur says that's only the start, with fertilizer stuck, food shortages coming and the riots in France, Belgium and Italy driven by fuel and food prices people can no longer afford: "I'm not talking recession. I'm talking global depression." Nobody heading to the polls on November 3 is ready for $200 oil, and every candidate on the ballot knows it. @cenkuygur
