Facts suck, if you're delusional and in a cult.

Reports coming in of a ballistic missile attack on a Saudi tanker in the Northern Red Sea - nothing from UKMTO as it may be outside the reporting area. This would bring the number of attacks in the area up to 8 in the last fortnight - a serious escalation of violence against shipping.

Come on folks. Give Trump some credit. It’s a lot of work to cheat at 18 holes of golf over 10 years.

Contains at least one excellent joke. (Even though I say so myself.)

Another strike on a merchant vessel. This time in the Bab al’Mandeb Strait. Can’t find it being reported in western media - but Indian and Gulf news all reporting it. All reported safe, but the vessel has been sunk. #TheHormuzCrisis #MerchantNavy #SeafarerSafety

Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "

1/13 I have spent the last few days analysing proposals to use the Royal Navy to intercept small boats in the English Channel. Most discussion has focused on immigration policy or the ECHR. I think there is a more fundamental maritime question that has barely been asked. #MaritimeSecurity

Only Lindell would try to bribe voters with a shitty pillow.

I don't fully disagree - however - The USA system has proven to be incapable of reigning in Trump because the checks and balances are now weighted heavily in his favour. In the UK - the military and judiciary are much more separated and could (if wanted) frustrate Reform even if they are in power.

The point of school, the simple justice of a wealth tax & Congo Chris Philp’s amazing crime busting wheeze that literally nobody* has ever thought of before… podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/i... *may contain sarcasm

Is Britain being gaslit about a wealth tax?

As someone who has struggled with their own mental health, Charities that support this casue mean alot to me. On September 12th on Rouge games YT channel (t.co/4CwT4weCd2) there will be a #fabtcg charity stream to support this great cause! If you want to donate please do so via t.co/qE1b1QVto6!

it's fascinating to me seeing guys like Peters and Farage who've had decades of the media giving them sloppy kisses lose it the instant they get asked one 7/10 moderately difficult question www.stuff.co.nz/politics/361...

'Turn that thing off': Peters terminates interview after just 96 seconds

Winston Peters had told a Stuff journalist to “piss off” after they asked questions about other instances of violent rhetoric and behaviour toward MPs.

1/14 A brief break from #TheHormuzCrisis. I've never really explained why the phrase "put the Navy in the Channel" to stop #SmallBoat crossings isn't, in itself, a serious maritime strategy. It sounds decisive. From a maritime perspective though, it raises far more questions than it answers.

Phang: "The fact that it's taking France and England and other foreign countries to be able to launch investigations, and yet our American DOJ is sitting on it doing absolutely nothing, including not cooperating with those foreign nations, is such a big red flag."

Choosing not to vote this November is choosing to: Support Trump's war with Iran. Support Trump's war on women's rights. Support Trump's obscene corruption. Support Trump's inflationary tariffs. Support Trump's campaign to keep the Epstein files hidden. Support Trump's war on democracy.

Just in case you thought there were new talks going on to solve #TheHormuzCrisis... The Iranians are holding firm to the June MOU terms. And nothing that Trump has shown in the last fortnight seems to demonstrate that the USA and allies could demand more...

#TheHormuzCrisis Update. Yellow - more threats of violence and death. Green - restatement of same goals, one of which was not a goal before the war. Blue - Walk-back of threats and claims Israel is on board (which I doubt). Red - Spelling / comprehension mistake - he means “parameters”

7/7 I don't normally "call to action" people. I just analyse and let others determine the path. But I am writing to my MP until I get an adequate response on this - I urge you to do the same to your MP / Government Representative in whatever country you are reading this in...

What a headline!

Let’s not forget that this illegal Reflecting Pool indictment was also overseen by Todd Blanche. He could have stopped this at any time, but he was a corrupt and willing accomplice to this fraud upon the court. How can any decent person possibly vote for this man as AG?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social it would appear that the Israelis holding to the peace announcement lasted exactly the same amount of time as Rishi Sunak thought about appointing Suella Braverman...

Not sure who did this but they should be arrested immediately.

Any Arabic translators able to help?

I am sorry - It has been a bit of a day / week... If you are following along you can read between the lines and see why... I am currently studying the Saudi Maritime Defence Coalition Statement - of course my Arabic translation skills are a little slow so will take some time... #TheHormuzCrisis

We need to take a moment to salute Gianni Infantino for being the first person in history to get 55 European countries to unanimously agree on anything.

I will put this up on here too - as I am adding it to my website and changing my LinkedIn status as well... I am currently open to any offers of work for a Maritime Education Professional / a Maritime Logistics Strategist. Contact through my website. #MaritimeEducation #MaritimeStrategist #Work
