Lol Indian fascist subs are big mad on Zohran's victory.

Bad vibes from this billboard allegedly in Tel Aviv

Coincidentally, guess who’s back in the news

Interesting, some explosions have gone off in Latakia province (Syria) recently:

"According to informed sources, a series of powerful explosions has struck bases belonging to foreign militant groups affiliated with the terrorist al-Jolani regime.

As reported by Al Mayadeen, the blasts occurred near the village of Qurfays in the countryside of Latakia, targeting facilities linked to the drone unit of the so-called Ministry of Defense of the Jolani terrorist regime."

I thought it was a joke, but the CNBC guys really compared Zohran's win to the Batman movie where Bain makes all the Wall Street guys walk on ice until they fall in.

I still can’t believe we did it and Zohran won. I extra can’t believe we did it by straight up putting regime numbers on the scoreboard last night. We pulled >90% in some places

Now that the height of this campaigning season is over (for the time being), I am taking a (dare I say, well deserved?) break. If there’s enough interest here, I am considering writing a retrospective on the primary campaign from October until today (the day after the primary) sometime soonish. Thanks for all of the support folks

Daddy Trump - we have ~~created~~ discovered the intel you wanted!

CNN

CIA obtained "credible evidence" indicating Iran's nuclear program was "severely damaged," director says

CIA Director John Ratcliffe on Wednesday issued a statement saying that the agency had obtained “a body of credible evidence (that) indicates Iran’s Nuclear Program has been severely damaged by the recent, targeted strikes.” “This includes new intelligence from a historically reliable source/method that several key Iranian nuclear facilities were destroyed and would have to be rebuilt over the course of years,” Ratcliffe said.

The statement comes a day after CNN and other outlets reporting a preliminary Defense Intelligence Agency analysis produced roughly 24 hours after the strikes that found that the US bombing likely only set Iran’s ability to produce a nuclear weapon back by a matter of months. The White House has pushed back on that assessment, calling it “wrong.” President Donald Trump has said that the strikes “obliterated” Iran’s ability to produce a weapon.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard also posted on X on Wednesday that “new intelligence” supported the notion that Iran’s nuclear facilities were “destroyed” in the strikes. “New intelligence confirms what @POTUS has stated numerous times: Iran’s nuclear facilities have been destroyed,” Gabbard posted on X on Wednesday without providing evidence. “If the Iranians chose to rebuild, they would have to rebuild all three facilities (Natanz, Fordow, Esfahan) entirely, which would likely take years to do.”

I heard a new claim about Mao today and I have no idea what this person is talking about, but they were saying they didn't like him bc he racialized China. Where does this bogus claim come from.

Zionists are panicking now, because they're now reckoning with the fact that bad faith antisemitism smears no longer work with Mamdani's comfortable victory.

I drove myself ever so slightly mad calculating some very rough estimates related to the US bombings of Iran, and how they compare to various other US equipment, as part of a broader discussion, but it was buried deep-ish in a thread, so I'm linking it for visibility - https://hexbear.net/comment/6278398 (if this isn't allowed - feel free to delete this comment, or I can just delete it myself)

Will welcome any commentary, I feel like I must have fucked up something with the numbers or my assumptions, even if they are very rough estimates, but I dunno. I could never make it as an accountant, respect the number troops for all they do (well, except for the McKinsey ghouls calculating how many people to fire I guess)

is there any reason to believe that

a) mamdani will actually win in november despite both the DNC and GOP working against him, in addition to Cuomo and Adams running as independents AND

b) if he gets elected in november, the NYPD won't just hold his family hostage and threaten to harass/harm/kill them until he resigns or transmogrifies into a more pliant servant of capital AND

c) he won't shoot himself numerous times in the back of the head?

or am i just being a doomer? it feels impossible to me that the bourgeoisie are just gonna sit by and let this guy do good things in the largest city in the empire

IOF goon folding like a lawn chair after getting sniped (plus a whole bunch of other footage of them getting owned):

Trump really hates dogs

BREAKING: Trump called for CNN to “throw out” Natasha Bertrand “like a dog” and demanded her firing for reporting on intelligence that Iran’s nuclear sites weren’t completely wiped out.

He accused her of pushing “fake news” and trying to damage the reputation of U.S. pilots.

They call this "the Hillary"

Chuck Schumer hospitalized for dehydration

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) was hospitalized on Wednesday morning after becoming lightheaded at the gym, a spokesperson told Axios.

He was treated for dehydration and is back at work in the Capitol, the spokesperson said.

You know what boils my blood, kamala can still show her face and people let her. People started shitting on Hillary as soon as she lost. It makes sense, she is the most responsible for 2016 defeat and she should fuck off. Punch up. But it feels like things have regressed. Kamala got even worse defeat and all the people who should have been sending death threats to her are praising her. People are blaming everyone except those in power. Libs love to cry about democracy and normalcy but this is not normal democracy. This is power worshipping. This is not about her reactionary beliefs. I would be okay if she was hated after losing with real leftist policies too.

gives a congratulatory endorsement to Zohran

Yesterday, Palestinian Tribes, Clans, and Families announced their intention to secure aid convoys to ensure their safe delivery to needy families. They warned citizens at gathering at aid points, "death traps," as over 500 martyrs have ascended at these distribution points in recent weeks.

They emphasized that aid would be distributed through official international channels to guarantee fair and dignified access for all, vowing that any attempt to loot the aid would be considered a crime against the Palestinian people.

Today, we confirm that the clans and tribes successfully secured the entry of aid trucks into Gaza City and the northern Strip. Flour, food aid, and medicines were delivered to organizations for distribution.

The High Commission for Clan Affairs considered the actions a historic stance of honor and national responsibility.

Akef al-Masri, of the Clan Affairs Commission stated that this was just the "first step in a series of upcoming steps." He promised the Palestinian people more "surprises in the coming days," asserting that joint national efforts will lead to more aid entering the besieged Strip. He reiterated that the Palestinian clans will continue to work tirelessly to break the siege and secure the needs of the population.

He stressed that the clans "will not stand idly by in the face of our people's suffering, and will continue to work with all their energy to secure people's needs and break the siege imposed on them in every possible way."

The only thing I can say is that these are the most heroic people in the world.
