The Captain of the US Navy Submarine which sank Iranian ship Dena violated the Geneva Conventions by not picking up survivors.
The vessel and itβs Captain should be named and shamed.

Spanish PM SΓ‘nchez responds to Trump:
"Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."
My question is:
Have the Iranians even said "Thank you"?
He is not thinking about the Iranian people, our service members in harmβs way, or even a coherent rationale for war. He is thinking about himself, his ego, and how to turn the Peopleβs House into a monument to his power.
Dozens of graves are excavated by digger in Minab to bury the 165 school victims of the US/Israeli attack.
The neglect of this story by Western mainstream media is one of the worst examples of whitewashing propaganda this century.
An unforgivable failure of public service.
Extraordinary crowds as a mass funeral procession begins in Minab, Iran for the 165 school girls & teachers killed in the US/Israeli school strike on Saturday.
Many outcomes of this war are uncertain. But a renewed generation of hatred towards the West is now baked in.

Unavailable Warriors tonight vs Clippers:
-Jimmy Butler (R ACL surgery)
-LJ Cryer (two-way)
-Seth Curry (L sciatic nerve)
-Stephen Curry (R knee)
-Gary Payton II (L ankle)
-Kristaps Porzingis (lingering illness)
-Will Richard (R ankle)
This is what Pete Hegseth and his hand-picked generals are going with. It is a lie. No independent expert supports their claim of imminent threat.
SO NOW WHAT?

Since the ceasefire agreement on Oct. 10, 2025, the #GazaStrip is divided by a dangerous, ambiguous and ever-expanding βyellow lineβ controlled by the Israeli military. One side of the line is under Israeli military control pushing people of #Gaza into the remaining 42 per cent.
From Oct. 11, 2025, to Jan. 21, 2026, at least 216 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks near the yellow line, including 46 children and 28 women, according to the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
"What one finds in the partisan braying of Tuesday night is the same sentiment articulated when Jonathan Ross called Renee Good a 'fucking bitch' after putting a bullet in her head."

Actually, itβs hurting children.
The President boasts of "no tax on tips", but this expires in 2028.
He boasts of "no tax on overtime," but it is taxed, and the break expires in 2028.
He boasts of "no tax on social security," but it is taxed, and his break expires in 2028.
He also passed tax cuts for the rich. They're permanent.
Maksym Kryvtsov was a talented Ukrainian author writing beautiful poetry, before russian invaders murdered him and his cat in January 2024.
2 years later, UNITED24 Ambassador Liev Schreiber recites Maksymβs most famous poem to remind the world what russia took from Ukraine.
Absolutely enraging. ICE kidnapped a 16 year old child in Mpls, refused to let him go home, sent him to a youth shelter in Michigan and LOST TRACK OF HIM. The familyβs lawyer used an investigator to trace a phone call and locate him. (π link)

Enten: "It's the weakest Donald Trump has ever been with independents. Look at this drop! At this point a year ago Donald Trump was at -13. Look at this -- minus 47 points among independents! The lowest Donald Trump has ever been in either of his two terms."
