These newly released Slack messages from the Proximal Origin frauds are absolutely stunning. Not because they reveal anything fundamentally new, but because they eliminate any remaining doubt that these people knowingly lied the public.
When the previous batch of messages was released, they claimed the private admissions that a lab origin was "friggin' likely" were merely snapshots from before they had changed their minds in March 2020. That explanation was always absurd but now we have similar Slack messages from long after March 2020.
Their reckoning cannot come soon enough.
Years ago we predicted this woyld happen and we're called conspiracy theorists. You can foresee a time when you won't have the ability to turn this "feature" off.
Uh…excuse me WHAT?!? My thermostat WILL be adjusted slightly? No. Not ok. I do not consent. I don’t even keep my house very cool but this dystopian nonsense makes me want to crank down the AC to 59.

@AP has projected @RepAndyBiggsAZ as the GOP nominee for Arizona governor, with several other key primary races also called. Biggs will face Gov. Katie Hobbs in November. Additional contests including AG, Treasurer, and Corporation Commission remain too close to call.

Thune says he will hold budget reconcilation package if it comes from the House until government funding is worked out. They could then use reconciliation to fund the government, potentially bypassing Dems. But says this may not happen until September.

Mao told the PM of India in 1954 that it'd be fine if nuclear war killed billions because "imperialism would be razed to the ground." He then caused the greatest famine in history, 40,000,000+ dead.
But this abject moron Piker gets NYT profiles talking about how cool he is.

🇺🇸⚔️🇮🇷 - CENTCOM has confirmed a third US service member killed and provided grim updates on the Jordan attack. The toll now:
▪️ Jordan (July 17): Two service members killed, one still missing. After a thorough search, US personnel recovered unidentified remains at the site; an identification process is underway. CENTCOM has not said the remains are the missing service member's — that verification is ongoing.
▪️ Iraq (July 18): A third service member was killed in northern Iraq during a controlled detonation of unexploded ordnance from a downed Iranian one-way attack drone. A second was wounded (minor injury). Per the New York Times, citing US officials, the soldier killed was not an EOD technician — he was struck by blast fragmentation and debris when the drone detonated.
That brings confirmed US military deaths in this Iran war to a higher toll, with one service member still formally missing. CENTCOM is withholding all identities until 24 hours after families are notified.
The Iraq death is a reminder that the danger isn't only incoming fire — downed Iranian drones leave unexploded ordnance that kills during disposal.
CENTCOM said Sunday's ninth consecutive night of strikes on Iran specifically "targeted members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps that launched the attacks that killed the two service members in Jordan" — the revenge framing now explicit in the operational language.
Locals report fires burning at the Tabriz Missile Field, operated by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force (IRGC-AF), in the East Azerbaijan Province of Northwestern Iran, following strikes tonight by the U.S. Air Force.
