The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) reports they intercepted and destroyed the 16th USAF MQ-1 reconnaissance-combat drone over Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. Depending on its configuration, integrated sensors, and onboard systems, a MQ-1 Predator drone unit costs an estimated $4 million to $5 million each. The never-ending quagmire that ICC-indicted Benjamin Netanyahu and Dummkopf Trumpf blundered the US into now costs approximately $50bn. Moreover, Israel is continuing its illegal occupation of southern Lebanon. The World Bank and the UN report that Israel caused over $8bn in damage to Lebanon, despoiled 22.5% of its agricultural land, destroyed over 30,000 beehives, and displaced over 1.2m people.

The Trump administration has likened the need to build out the nation's artificial intelligence infrastructure to the Manhattan Project, the World War II effort that produced the world's first atomic bomb. The White House's point person on the effort, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, has spoken of the "AI arms race" with China as an existential issue for the nation. "AI is manufacturing intelligence, and, if we don't manufacture more intelligence than our adversaries, it affects every job, every company and every industry," he said during his Senate confirmation hearing in January 2025.

"Whether you think it was the right decision or not, the Iran War is largely what shifted voter sentiment and caused this wave, right? It jacked up the price of gas. That's the thing that people feel most immediately in their pockets, and it changed their minds." The younger Trump, 48, suggested that voters do not care whether the war is the right thing to do or not"they care that they did not get what they voted for. "We also campaigned on not getting into these things, and we don't have to debate whether it was the right thing or the wrong thing," Don Jr. said. "I don't have any of the details. I'm not privy to any of that in terms of the intelligence. But it was definitely something after Afghanistan and Iraq that we probably didn't want to be into."
Tesla will wind down production of the Cybertruck at its gigafactory in Texas next year, Chief Executive Elon Musk said. In a post on X, Musk said the move is to "make room" for increased production of its self-driving Cybercab"another proof point for Tesla's thesis that its future lies in fully autonomous vehicles and robotics rather than selling traditional cars. The decision also comes as the stainless-steel pickup has suffered from slow demand. In October, 1,914 Cybertrucks were registered in the U.S., according to data from Motor Intelligence. By comparison, Ford sold more than 70,000 F-Series trucks last month. Musk unveiled a prototype for the Cybertruck in 2019 with high expectations, including deeming it superior to Ford's top-selling F-150. Read more
Flvio Bolsonaro, the far-right politician who lost Brazil's presidential election last month, has insisted his defeat is not "the end for Brazil" as he battles to maintain political relevance after fleeing to the US. Bolsonaro absconded early last week shortly after losing the 25 October election to the leftwing incumbent Luiz Incio Lula da Silva by more than 4m votes. On Thursday night Bolsonaro made his first major public appearance since arriving in the US, speaking at a rightwing gathering at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago property where he claimed "great things" were still to come.
The North Carolina Voter Identification Amendment was on the ballot in North Carolina as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment on November 3, 2026. The amendment was approved.
Racist misogynist SECWAR Pete Hegseth (R) -- an incompetent alcoholic and failure who fell into ICC-indicted war criminal Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu's trap which sunk the US into a never-ending Middle Eastern quagmire against the people of Iran -- a war which is bankrupting the US -- blither-blathers incoherently for five minutes over Rep. Thomas Massie's (R-KY) "Sham Articles Of Impeachment."
Bibi and Senile Satan have bankrupted America. Just look at the astronomical costs to the American taxpayer who doesn't enjoy worldclass universal healthcare like Israelis. Wow. The entire Trumpf junta should be court-martialed forthwith.
"The entire Democratic Party owes Zohran Mamdani a huge thank you. Before he burst onto the scene, the party was directionless. We had lost our way, our mojo, and our confidence. We abandoned the working class, and voters abandoned us in return. Zohran got us back on track with energy, clarity, and a real connection to the people we left behind. Without him, we might not be where we are today. Who couldn't like him? [Zohran] radiates joy, empathy, kindness, and love." '' " "Mamdani's election was a beacon of light in 2025 and gave us all hope. Now he's a household name, and Democrats around the country love him. He gave us hope we can do the same thing around the country. Progressive Democrats are the future." Even Dummkopf Trumpf has a "thing" for handsome and charismatic Zohran.
NYG QB Jaxson Dart and Zohran Mamdani (D) are Trumpf's "type."

Following the inconclusive election results in Israel, the key to ousting ICC-indicted war criminal PM Benjamin Netanyahu (Likud) from power lies with the Israeli Communist Party (AKA the "Makis") and the "Joint List," an alliance of three parties: Hadash, Ta'al, and Balad. Hadash is a Jewish-Arab coalition led by the Makis. This bloc has long fought for an end to the brutal occupation of Gaza and the West Bank, a Palestinian state alongside Israel based on the 1967 borders, and full equality for all Arab citizens (one-fifth of Israel's population). The Joint List is headed by Yousef Jabareen, a Hadash leader and law professor, a man educated in Israel and the US. The Joint List includes Member of Knesset (MK) Ofer Cassif, a communist. To govern Israel, any ruling coalition must include this progressive bloc as neither Benjamin Netanyahu (who won 53 seats) nor Gadi Eisenkot " "Likud Lite" " (who won 48 seats) have a majority of 61 seats in the 120-member Knesset.
