Iran fired 11 ballistic missiles at Israel today. Each one of those missiles can level an entire neighborhood and kill hundreds. No self-respecting country in the world would tolerate such an attack, and neither will Israel.
Israel is now targeting Iranian surface-to-surface missile launch sites, as well as infrastructure facilities unrelated to the energy sector.
The people of Lebanon have rejected Iran’s proxy, Hizballah, and have told Iran to get out of their country.
If Hizballah fires at Israel, its command centers in the Dahiya will be hit hard.
This has nothing to do with Iran.
Everyone has had enough of this maniacal Iranian regime.

I’m glad Lyndsey detailed this -
-The NYT found HER
-They got her agreement to go on the record based on the understanding that they weren’t hanging her out to dry
-They connected her with other victims with vivid stories - that didn’t even get included
-They spent more of the story explaining why she might not be credible
-They gave Platner pushback more validity than Lyndsey’s account - and continued to press her to relive and re-prove everything she had about the most toxic point in her life
-Editors seem more interested in killing a story than getting facts right or shining a light on horrific behavior from a major candidate for office
Journalists made themselves the heroes of the #MeToo movement - they even made movies about it. But the lesson from this is journalists role in exposing bad behavior is different if the accuser is an (R) and the powerful person being accused is a (D).
A Graham Platner accuser drops a bombshell response to the New York Times after the paper published a report watering down her allegations of abuse.
Lyndsey Fifield took to X to accuse the paper of twisting her story after convincing her to come forward with allegations of abuse involving her ex-boyfriend, Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner.
According to Fifield, she believed she was participating in a broader effort to tell multiple women's stories about past experiences with Platner.
Instead, she says the paper delayed, reshaped, and ultimately published a narrative that benefited the campaign she thought it was investigating.
Back in reality, we spy on Israel so pervasively that Obama used it as a backdoor to spy on members of Congress for meetings where Israel came up.
Social media is a schizophrenia machine that disables people from doing the most basic kinds of cognitive mapping.

People are trying to discredit Lyndsey Fifield for her history as a right-wing operative, but if she were a mere partisan hack she could’ve been a lot more bombastic with her claims. Also, “Believe Women” doesn’t end on a partisan borderline
I've known Lyndsey a long time and we all would hang out at Tune when she and Graham were dating. As her friend, I was never comfortable with that relationship because of how unhinged he was. And she told me he had an SS tattoo long before it became public. Her word is solid.
It’s funny watching the party that tried to ruin Brett Kavanaugh’s life using the completely unsupported narrative of Christine Blasey Ford suddenly start questioning the veracity a story with great depth of detail as far as time, place, and contemporaneous verification of events sourced from multiple women

“Growing up in Jerusalem, I was surrounded by incredible flavors, spices and food that told stories. I wanted to bring that same feeling here, not only for the local Jewish community, but for all of South Florida.”
Chef Raz Shabtai and his team celebrate as they learn that their restaurant, Mutra, earned a Michelin star.
Mutra is now, after only a year of operation, the first and only Kosher restaurant to have earned a Michelin star in the world.
Mazel Tov to everyone at Mutra!
@bethanyshondark understandable in Maryland, but many states have open or semi-open primaries where registering D is not required, this strategy heavily dependent on geography, not universal
