Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces, officials say The targeting information has included the locations of American warships and aircraft in the Middle East, the officials said.

That Russia is helping Iran isn’t shocking. What’s shocking is that the Trump administration won’t condemn Russia. Where is the outrage? Imagine if Zelensky were helping Iran. Trump would go ballistic. But when it’s Putin the reaction is decorous silence.

Voting rights groups sue Georgia for refusing to release voter purge records Without full access to the records, plaintiffs say they cannot determine whether eligible voters were wrongly removed.

NEW: Georgia removed nearly 471,000 voters from its rolls last summer β€” roughly 6% of all the state’s registered voters.

Now voting rights groups are suing, arguing the state is illegally hiding records about how the purge was carried out.

Palantir Sues Swiss Magazine For Accurately Reporting That The Swiss Government Didn’t WantΒ Palantir If you run a company whose entire value proposition is the ability to see patterns, predict outcomes, and connect dots that others miss, you'd think someone in the building might have flagged that suing a small independent magazine over unflattering-but-accurate reporting would only guarantee that millions more people read it. And yet, here we are. Palantir Technologies, the infamous surveillance and data analytics giant chaired by Peter Thiel, has…

@markurban.bsky.social it is clear from recent SPTA trials that some hulls appear to be particularly problematic. Have any of the problematic hulls that caused trial cancellations been tested? Or just specially prepared RGT hulls that are known not to cause crew suffering?

It doesn’t appear that there is a baseline or any standard build of Ajax. It appears as if every single vehicle is different, with masses of concessions? So Drop 4 MUST rework all those concessed items /bring all vehicles to a single standard ie FOC?

The Joint acceptance group? So GD define what is acceptable for delivery? Why is a supplier defining this?It's crystal clear that this can only be a customer decision. The acceptance criteria are fixed at contract placement. Unless of course there is no acceptance standard?
