[ad_1] Maine Democrats overwhelmingly nominated former state senate president Troy Jackson as their party’s nominee for U.S. Senator on Saturday, ending a two-week effort to select a replacement for Graham Platner. Platner, who won the state’s Democratic primary in June, ended his campaign amid a series of sexual misconduct allegations earlier this month, forcing a last-minute scramble to find a new candidate. Delegates voted 566-5 for Jackson at a special convention in Bangor. Several other Democratic contenders withdrew before the gathering, leaving the fifth-generation logger from northern Maine as the clear favorite. In his acceptance speech, Jackson hit on health…

[ad_1] A strange way to count: “On Wednesday, the Pentagon reported on its casualties website that a total of 18 American service members had been killed during the war in Iran,” reports The New York Times. “By Thursday, the Defense Department had lowered that number, reporting that 14 American troops had been killed in the war.” The stated justification, per three military officials who spoke to the Times, is that the four most recent deaths—one service member killed in Iraq and three in Jordan—had happened after President Donald Trump had declared a ceasefire. Meanwhile, the Pentagon’s acting press secretary said the count…
[ad_1] While Washington sets the priorities and commands decision-making, Australian operational staff at the base are outnumbered by Australian “guards and gardeners,” writes Peter Cronau. Looking south-west over the U.S. satellite surveillance base at Pine Gap in Central Australia, some 21 of the base’s then 35 radomes and dishes can be made out, in this remarkable 2016 photograph. Since then another 10 radomes and dishes have been built at the sprawling base, bringing the total to 45.

[ad_1] Israeli media reports that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is preparing to present President Donald Trump with intelligence that Iran has accelerated efforts to make a nuclear weapon. According to Israel’s Channel 12 News, Netanyahu plans to make the case to Trump that Iran is racing for a nuclear weapon when the two leaders meet on Tuesday. Tel Aviv has long sought to convince Washington that war against Iran is necessary as Tehran is attempting to make a nuclear weapon. Netanyahu will present the intelligence following Trump’s decision not to significantly escalate the war against Iran over the weekend.…
[ad_1] People like working from home. It lets us avoid commutes. It lets us live closer to family. It seems especially good for the parents of young children, and it could even boost birth rates. This seems like an indisputable tech success story. Thanks to a plethora of modern technologies and applications—the internet, smartphones, VPNs, video calls, instant messaging platforms like Slack, cloud-based software and documents, and so on—remote work has become a possibility for more people than ever, and that’s a good thing. But are we all kidding ourselves about the benefits of remote work? Are we suffering from…
[ad_1] Until now, the deceitful health bureaucrat’s reputation has remained intact despite damning revelations about his attempted cover-up of the origins of COVID-19, suspected involvement in outsourcing dangerous research on bat viruses to China and mishandling of the pandemic.

[ad_1] The United States and Iran both appeared to refrain from launching new attacks as the Iran War entered its 150th day on Monday. AP reported that “regional mediators” had persuaded the U.S. and Iran to return to the negotiating table. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei denied that his country had requested a restart of talks, telling reporters that negotiations with the U.S. are “not in our DNA.” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu left Monday for Washington, where he will meet with President Donald Trump for the eighth time since the start of Trump’s second term. In a post…
[ad_1] Former President Joe Biden used up all the ammunition. There is no ammunition shortage. It is illegal to leak military secrets about the ammunition shortage. Asked on Meet the Press about reports that the U.S. military doesn’t have enough air defense interceptors to return to the Iran war, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz offered all three contradictory explanations on Sunday. The latest round of U.S.-Iranian fighting ended suddenly this weekend. Despite President Donald Trump’s claim that he was “all set” for a “massive attack,” the U.S. military stopped bombing Iran on Friday; the Iranian government said it…
[ad_1] The United States ruling class has launched another series of overnight strikes in Iran, reportedly hitting civilian infrastructure, including several bridges across the Islamic Republic. Tehran had already threatened that further escalation would have consequences for the entire region when the US launched these attacks. “If the enemy, in the course of its war of attrition, seeks to strike Iran’s infrastructure or carry out further assassinations of officials, the entire region will pay the price,” a senior intelligence official in Tehran told RT on Thursday, as the US launched its latest strikes. Does that mean Iran will do anything major? It…
