NEW (!) β Sources say Trump has been positively receptive to officials & allies privately encouraging him to send troops on the ground into Iran.
Comes amid revelations that Lindsey Graham has gone to Israel and coached Netanyahu on how to persuade Trump to take action in Iran.

It really sucks to see NBC Washington post a reel on Instagram that takes credit for sharing the DOGE USIP raid body cam footage with the world. They mention The Handbasket in the caption knowing full well that all people are going to see is the video. Pretty shameless.

They really are telegraphing this.
Keep in mind there are still significant US forces in the Caribbean, even after some fighter jets and the Ford carrier strike group were sent to the Middle East.
Here's the latest on the US operations in Ecuador.
