@lucy_neuwirth DOJ should publish all Epstein files

[War Reports @WarReportsLive]

Vice President JD Vance stepped in to defend Donald Trump over his past associations with Jeffrey Epstein during an appearance on Fox News' Hannity: "When you look at the Epstein files, Trump didn’t just throw him out of the club; he turned Jeffrey Epstein into the local police for being a creep. There was probably no person in the world that Jeffrey Epstein hated more than Trump". Vance pointed to accounts from former Palm Beach law enforcement noting that Trump barred Epstein from Mar-a-Lago and cooperated with investigators early on, arguing that unsealed documents prove Trump actively rejected Epstein rather than enabling him. Critics, however, continue to point to their shared high-society social circle throughout the 1990s and early 2000s before their public fallout.
Does turning Epstein in to local police settle the debate over Trump's past ties, or will the association continue to be a political issue? Share your take below 👇

Amodei held his ground, telling executives that frontier labs must be honest with the public about accelerating capabilities rather than playing down dangers.

Is publicizing catastrophic risks responsible stewardship, or counterproductive alarmism? #MachineLearning #BigTech #FinTwit

🚨 Tensions flared behind closed doors at the White House on Tuesday as tech CEOs confronted Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei over his vocal AI risk warnings, per WSJ.

The confrontation followed an East Room lunch with Donald Trump. 🧵👇 #AI #Tech #SiliconValley

[War Reports @WarReportsLive]

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg challenged Amodei in the Roosevelt Room, questioning whether ringing public alarm bells over cyberattacks and job displacement hurts the industry.

Huang has previously called extreme doomsday warnings irresponsible and evidence-free.

President Donald Trump addressed the disconnect between administration milestones and public polling on the economy: "We have the best economy anywhere in the world. There’s no economy like this economy. The only thing we don’t have is good public relations. We don’t seem to be able to get the word across". Trump argued that headline numbers on employment, domestic investment, and market performance outshine global rivals, maintaining that negative press coverage is preventing everyday voters from seeing the progress. The sentiment mirrors long-running political debates over consumer sentiment, where incumbents argue the economic numbers are fundamentally sound while voters point to stubborn everyday grocery and living costs.
Is the administration's biggest hurdle simply poor PR and media coverage, or are everyday prices driving voters' frustration? Sound off below 👇

🚨 Russia has formally warned NATO it is prepared to use its "entire arsenal," including nuclear weapons, if the alliance attempts to isolate Kaliningrad, Reuters reports.

The diplomatic note warned of immediate strikes on Western "decision-making centers." 🧵👇 #Russia #NATO

[War Reports @WarReportsLive]

In the document seen by Reuters, Moscow accused NATO of a “dangerous and reckless course” carrying high risk of direct conflict.

NATO rejected the warning, stating its exercises pose zero threat to Russian territory and urging Moscow to cease its “irresponsible nuclear rhetoric.”

🇮🇱🇦🇪⚡️ — The general consensus now is that one of the pilots attempted suicide by nosediving the plane, after which the second pilot stabbed the first pilot attempting to down the plane.

Israeli passengers also stepped in to stop the plane from crashing. Photo shows one of the Israeli passengers that intervened, with blood on his shirt that belonged to the stabbed suicidal pilot.

Operating from aircraft carriers, the F/A-XX addresses the "tyranny of distance" in the Indo-Pacific, allowing carrier strike groups to stand off beyond anti-ship missile envelopes.

Can carrier aviation remain dominant against modern anti-access missile networks? #Military #OSINT #Tech

[War Reports @WarReportsLive]

🚨 The Pentagon and U.S. Navy have formally selected Boeing to develop the sixth-generation F/A-XX carrier-based strike fighter.

The program secures Boeing’s clean sweep of both 6th-gen military fighters alongside the USAF’s F-47. 🧵👇 #Aviation #Navy #Defense

[War Reports @WarReportsLive]

Key operational expectations for the F/A-XX:
• Drastically increased combat radius compared to the F/A-18 Super Hornet
• Native command and teaming with autonomous Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCAs)
• Broadband stealth and next-gen air dominance
• Replaces the Super Hornet & Growler by the 2030s while operating alongside the F-35C

Speaking from the Oval Office as trade tensions between Washington and Ottawa escalated further, President Donald Trump predicted Canada will soon cave under economic pressure: "I think what's going to happen is, over the next three or four weeks, Canada is going to come to us and they're going to say, 'We're going to get rid of all the tariffs.' We're going to win everything. We even have Lake Ontario is now 'Lake America'". Trump pointed to mounting cross-border duties and his symbolic executive order renaming the shared Great Lake as proof that the U.S. holds the upper hand. However, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and provincial leaders have vowed dollar-for-dollar retaliation, insisting Ottawa will not be subordinated in trade talks.

In a bold campaign pledge ahead of the midterm elections, Donald Trump doubled down on his plan to deliver direct stimulus checks if the GOP keeps control of Capitol Hill: "If Republicans win the House and the Senate, five thousand dollars to every adult. And we can do it. The Democrats can't, because the Democrats don't have any income, and they're going to drive us into depression. They won't have any money". Dubbed the "Trump Dividend," the White House argues the estimated $1.2 trillion payout can be funded through expanded tariff revenues and domestic economic growth. Critics and fiscal watchdogs, however, have questioned whether tariff collections could realistically cover the immense price tag without adding to the federal deficit or reigniting inflation.
Is a universal $5,000 dividend realistic under current federal revenues, or is this an unachievable campaign promise? Drop your thoughts below 👇

🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — Iran has increasingly relied on Tether’s USDT stablecoin to bypass U.S. sanctions and support its shadow banking system, according to a U.S. Senate report reviewed by WSJ.

The investigation, set to be released today, examined 846 crypto wallets sanctioned by the U.S. and Israel over alleged connections to Iran and found that 84% conducted all or nearly all of their transactions in USDT.

The report alleges the cryptocurrency has been used by Iranian entities for payments and to finance regional groups, including Hezbollah.

President Donald Trump addressed both the economy and the escalating Middle East conflict in remarks to reporters, claiming major milestones across both fronts: "With the exception of oil, which is lower than the Biden administration and we no longer have to worry about nuclear weapons with Iran because they're wiped out, everything is going down". Trump argued that broader consumer prices across the country are easing, insisting that current oil spikes remain lower than peak price surges under Joe Biden and predicting energy costs will plummet once operations conclude. He claimed that preemptive military strikes successfully dismantled Iran's nuclear infrastructure, neutralizing the threat for good even as energy markets remain sensitive to maritime disruption.

🚨 The European Commission is urging EU member states to reduce natural gas and electricity consumption to combat soaring energy prices driven by the war in Iran.

EU Energy Commissioner Dan Jørgensen warned the bloc faces a “price crisis linked to a supply crisis.” 🧵👇 #Energy #Europe

[War Reports @WarReportsLive]

With foreign suppliers meeting ~80% of EU gas needs, maritime disruptions in Hormuz have left gas storage at just 70% capacity—well below seasonal targets ahead of winter.

Jørgensen called for demand-curbing measures to remain in place “for as long as necessary.”
