As soon as anyone bothers to take even the shallowest look at the nuclear industry supporting naval construction, the Trump battleship is dead in the water. Simple as that.
Unless USN just exchanges carriers for nuclear powered battleships. 🤡

NEW: The main U.S. air war command center in the Middle East suffered a direct hit soon after the war with Iran began and was severely damaged, sources tell Air & Space Forces Magazine. The Combined Air Operations Center at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar was hit by Iranian missiles. A secondary facility in South Carolina filled the gap. https://t.co/S1fqF1e2DW

A US Navy aircraft carrier (Lincoln or Bush) spotted on Sentinel-2 today (June 5, 2026) in the Gulf of Oman around 280 km off the Iranian coast.
She got 50 km closer to Iran compared to her image on June 2nd.
Dual purpose: The Taliban flag flying over the Humvee serves as a symbol of their victory over the US and the Humvee itself is a tactical anti-drone defense layer for the tower.

Over 800 content creators were paid by Polymarket's chief marketing officer to promote the company, per POLITICO. During a 14-month period, more than $2.5 million was sent to these creators.
The Iranian Army's Navy reported that it launched Ghadir anti-ship missiles and Shahid Danaye drones against US destroyers in the Gulf of Oman. The new Iranian kamikaze drone Shahid Danaye is interesting, it resembles the Omid drone, but with a small turbojet engine..
“Vantor’s images go directly from the satellite to the soldier’s tablet, phone or laptop in as little as 15 minutes, bypassing a centralized review in Kyiv that has tended to slow down the flow of intelligence to the front line by hours or days.
One Ukrainian fighter said intelligence received from human sources on the location of Russian targets required at least two days of review time in Kyiv. A former soldier in Ukraine said geospatial intelligence was sometimes so stale by the time it reached the units at the front line, soldiers couldn’t act on it.”

New: Before he was announced as Trump’s pick to lead the US intel community as acting DNI, Bill Pulte did not have a security clearance granting him access to highly-classified information, per multiple sources.
ODNI initiated the vetting process for his security clearance on Thursday by requesting a background investigation, one of the sources told CNN.
Lebanese President Aoun accused Iran of using Lebanon as a “bargaining chip” in negotiations with the U.S., saying Tehran was acting “for the sake of their own interest” while the Lebanese people “are paying the price.” In an interview with CNN, Aoun rejected an IRGC statement demanding Israel’s withdrawal from Lebanon as part of a U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement, telling Iran’s elite force: “It’s not your country, it’s our country.” Aoun said Lebanon and Israel had reached a ceasefire implementation agreement after “tough” negotiations, calling it a possible path toward a “just and lasting peace,” though Hezbollah, which was not part of the deal, rejected it.
Update: @dw_ukrainian says 5 ships hit in Azov Sea. My guess is that one hit last night still on fire today is this tanker 👇
