US President Donald Trump said Monday he considered a ceasefire during the war with Iran “sort of a waste of time,” as he touted the US blockade and said Washington now had “total control.” “We have the greatest blockade probably in naval history,” Trump said at a campaign rally in Mississippi.

People forget that we started the war with Iran on behalf of Israel 👇 and that we, the American taxpayers, are paying for it to the tune of BILLIONS of dollars. www.state.gov/releases/off...

🤨 Trump: "We didn't start the war with Iran. Iran started the war with us."

Halloween candy sales fell 6.7% in the month ending Oct. 17 compared to the same period last year, according to NielsenIQ, a market research firm.

Neither one of these men are qualified to do what needs to come next. What we need is for the rest of the Congress and Senate to recognize that fact.

This report has a lot more information than that one less-than-credible accusations against Trump. If people read (I know, it's an impossible ask), you'll see there are three more I would deem extremely well-evidenced and credible.

This report is genuinely overwhelming, in terms of the evidence both against Trump and of a ham-fisted cover-up. Including one instance in which Ghislaine Maxwell was actually about to mention one of Trump's young accusers and Todd Blanche told her to stop talking. The media response is "yawn."

Ahem. #EpsteinFiles

Related: I’m still looking for leads and help on jobs, fellowships, and freelance contracts on drones, GIS, aid, disaster, OSINT, tech ethics, and journalism. I simply will not work for evil people and/or weapons manufacturers, which is also why I haven’t had paying work since Trump 2.0 began.

Two drone evacuations in one week: CODE 9.2 fighters rescue wounded Defenders from the battlefield using StarGate UAVs. The 129th Brigade contacted CODE 9.2 for help evacuating wounded Defenders. Due to difficult terrain and the threat of FPV drones, reaching them by land was impossible.

The Trump administration is attempting to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey for what it calls disclosing classified information, employing the unusual maneuver of bypassing a grand jury — a move Comey’s lawyers say makes the case legally invalid. apnews.com/article/come...

Impeach and remove the President because either we have a Constitution or we don’t.

Charlie Bilello reports that for the first time since 2023 we're seeing prices in the US rise faster than wages, a decline in prosperity for the American worker. My first thought was: "How are they going to blame this one on Biden?" #EconSky

Trump’s DOJ has charged James Comey AGAIN, this time under the Espionage Act over a 2016 New York Times story. In DOJ’s own words, Comey had staff talk to a reporter to “correct misinformation” in a Reuters article.

I'm going to say this for probably the 20th time now .... Comey was an Original Classification Authority at the time he allegedly disseminated the national defense information at issue here. Assuming it was FBI information, he had the authority to declassify it at his discretion.

Several explosions occured in occupied Luhansk. #Ukraine

As FBI Director, he absolutely had the authority to direct those staffers to do that. He was an OCA, he could do that. This case is garbage on procedure and on substance.

Also, at least 2 hospitals were hit in Kyiv by Russian attack tonight

Russian-occupied Luhansk region is reportedly under a large-scale drone attack. #Ukraine
