The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.

The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.

Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.

If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

1/10 India's deadliest aviation disaster - the Air India 171 crash, killed 260 people. But it didn't just take lives, it also took down people's reputations with it - one pilot was labelled suicidal, the other panic-stricken. But evidence shows neither were.

In my in-depth, long form investigation for @Caravan, I use the plane's satellite transmissions, maintenance records and internal correspondence for a decade between Air India and Boeing -- to show it was engine computer FADEC that was guilty and not the pilots.

At around 08:08:44 UTC, the plane's computer FADEC commanded a fuel cutoff and this is the story of how and why it did so.

Higher middle-class "apolitical" ppl (read BJP supporters) from gated communities are frustrated
1. Our education system has collapsed
2. India is getting unbearably hot
3. The dollar has been rising rapidly
They refuse to see d correlation between these problems & their cause!

Latest: On May 10, PM Modi urged us to carpool, use public transport and save fuel.

We tracked his activities since the war began and found: in 70 days, he travelled to 53 cities, attended 81 events across 12 states, including 25 roadshows.

Only 13/81 events were official events. Reporting for @thewire_in with Aashna Ajmera:

If BJP had never come to power, I probably would've never realized how much hate some of my closest friends, relatives carry for Muslims.
Sometimes politics doesn't divide people, it reveals them.

Thanks for coming to West Bengal.

> Ashwini Vaishnaw says India isn't far behind US and China in AI race

> Nirmala Sitharaman says, Rupee is doing absolutely fine at 95

> Nitin Gadkari says no vehicle damage and performance issue due to ethanol blending

> NTA says, NEET-UG paper didn't leak, only few questions were out

Only thing worse than not solving the problems is not acknowledging the problem, and our country is run by such ministers and bureaucrats only.

🚨Thierry Henry on Cristiano Ronaldo tears after winning the Saudi Pro League:

🗣️ “ People see Cristiano Ronaldo crying after winning the Saudi Pro League and some laugh because of where he is playing now. But for me, that moment explains exactly why he became one of the greatest athletes we have ever seen.

This is a player who has already conquered football. Champions Leagues, Ballon d’Ors, league titles in England, Spain and Italy, international trophies with Portugal… there is literally nothing left for him to prove to anyone.

Yet at 41 years old, he is still celebrating victories with the same emotion, the same fire and the same obsession he had when he was a teenager at Sporting Lisbon. That is not normal. Most players lose that hunger after winning one or two major trophies. Cristiano never lost it.

People always talk about talent, but mentality is what truly separates legends from great players. Cristiano trained like every season was his last chance. He treated every game like it mattered. That is why he stayed at the top for almost 20 years while generations of players came and disappeared.

To still have that level of passion at his age, after everything he has achieved, is honestly unbelievable. It tells young players that greatness is not only about ability, it is about sacrifice, discipline, consistency and refusing to ever become comfortable.

You can love him or hate him, but you have to respect that mentality. Football may never see another competitor like Cristiano Ronaldo again...”

@sachinsingh1010 @HelleLyngSvends Uncle, as her initial tweet says, actual real press freedom is way beyond your comprehension. Go watch Zee News

[Helle Lyng @HelleLyngSvends]

Primeminister of India, Narendra Modi, would not take my question, I was not expecting him to.

Norway has the number one spot on the World Press Freedom Index, India is at 157th, competing with Palestine, Emirates & Cuba.

It is our job to question the powers we cooperate with.

Dear Modiji
You lectured us yesterday to save fuel, carpool and embrace austerity. But here’s how your lecture worked in reality incase you are not aware.
Mumbai–Vadodara Indigo flight 6E 618 was scheduled to land in Vadodara at around 9 pm. The flight has now been diverted to Ahmedabad because Vadodara airport has been shut for commercial operations till your (PM Modi’s) special aircraft takes off for Delhi.
After burning extra fuel to divert, the aircraft hovered over Ahmedabad for several minutes awaiting landing clearance — wasting even more fuel. Passengers suffered delays and inconvenience, all for one VIP movement. Yours.
Sir, you claim that you don't believe in VIP culture. Right now, entire Vadodara airport stands disrupted, commercial flights affected, aviation fuel burnt unnecessarily — but we are told to tighten belts and save petrol.
Austerity for citizens. Privilege for PM?
Tomorrow another lecture on fuel efficiency? Spare us, Sir.

[Anuradha Tiwari @talk2anuradha]

My appeal to PM Modi-

In order to save petrol & diesel, please make it mandatory for bureaucrats, MLAs & MPs to use public buses and metro instead of large convoys.

It will also be a good opportunity for them to experience world-class infrastructure they are building for us.
