In 1962, the U.S. military proposed a plan to stage attacks on American civilians.

Bombings.
Civilian deaths.
Plane hijackings.

Then blame it all on Cuba.
To justify a war.

This isnโ€™t a conspiracy theory.
Itโ€™s declassified.

The plan had a name:

Operation Northwoods.

A thread ๐Ÿงต
The plan was written by the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff.

That means the highest military leadership in the United States.

Signed by General Lyman Lemnitzer, the highest-ranking military officer in the country.

The proposal was sent directly to the Secretary of Defense.

And then to the President.
Public support for war was low.

Their goal was simple:

Create public outrage.

So Americans would support a war against Cuba.

At the time, Cuba was allied with the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

Lake undertook sweeping and devastating actions against VoA and other US funded international networks such as Radio Free Europe and Radio Free Asia.

She was so intent on layoffs she kept doing new rounds after calling staffers back because she had done so improperly. /con't
Lake canceled a new HQ that predecessors said would save the government tens of millions or more. She was accused of putting pro-Trump propaganda on the air early this year.

And she called herself acting CEO with no documentation of being named that by White House. /con't
NPR first did an in depth look at the question of whether Lake was acting without legal authority in August

and again in Jan

Lake has called Judge Lamberth an activist. Will share her comment as I get it.

After 8 days of war between Iran ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท and the USA/Israel ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ, here is a new MAP UPDATE

In total, the US and Israel conducted around 4 500 strikes across Iran, while Iran retaliated with 3 500 vectors, including ~905 missiles.

๐ŸงตTHREAD๐Ÿงต1/24 โฌ‡๏ธImage
Despite facing significant challenges due to Israeli-American air supremacy over Iranian territory, Iranian retaliatory strikes continue across the Middle East, while the United States continues to accumulate damage to its bases. Image
After initial strikes that had few results (except in Bahrain and Kuwait), Iran used more precise missiles to strike four AN/TPY-2 (THAAD) radars, blinding the region's air defenses and limiting response time.

The massive consumption of Patriot missiles also raises concerns about a potential shortage.Image

โ€žThe senator [@LindseyGrahamSC] said he was already talking with @realDonaldTrump about further military interventions in Lebanon and potentially Cuba, which he said would happen soon. He wasnโ€™t particularly concerned about what was next in Iran, he said.

The day after the attack began, Graham told NBCโ€™s ยปMeet the Pressยซ [1] that the goal of the Iran operation ยปis to change the threat, not the regimeยซ, adding that the U.S. wouldnโ€™t pick Iranโ€™s next leader.โ€

Hi Everyone! New thread from Larry Schweikart!

Hi everyone. Harold has again been willing to forward a thread for X since I am totally off X now but can be found on Truth Social (@CyberneticsLS). Anyway, we agreed that periodically he would post a thread from me so here goes:

In my latest substack called "Full Metal Octopus" (larrys.substack.com/p/full-metal-oโ€ฆ) I noted that Trump has gone beyond a "transformational" president, doing stuff virtually alone (no Congress, a little help from the courts) that no other chief exec has ever done.

He has completely reoriented the Western Hemisphere, adding El Salvador, Chile, Argentina, and now Venezuela and Ecuador to our list of solid allies. In two months he took out the two biggest drug lords in this half of the world, El Mencho and Maduro. Now the Cubanos are looking over their shoulder and preparing for a Regent governor, Muy Macho Marco Rubio.
But this move was strategic in more ways than one. It cut off Chy-na from key oil and rare earth minerals, especially from Venezuelan oil. Then Trump, right as he said, on schedule, took out the mullahs in Iran. Apparently now they can't even name a replacement, because said Top Dogs there have the shelf life of a British flagbearer vs. Napoleon or an open can of tuna fish. Their so-called "leaders" now don't even have control over parts of their military, promising "no more ballistic missiles" right before more launches. Nevertheless, so far, the U.S. and Israel have by all authoritative accounts REMOVED 98% of Iran's ballistic missile force and their launchers. Well done.

Prior to that in Africa, Trump had begun developing alliances with Christian enclaves and whatever Christian governments exist to crush the Muslim murder pirates there. Oh, and along the way, Trump just happened to get more deals for . . . rare earth minerals. Meaning Chy-na didn't. So he has expanded the anti-ChiCom embargo through more than half the world now.
Trump is steadily, like an octopus with an oyster, surrounding and pressurizing the ChiComs. A month ago, Xi, who apparently is not a frog in a boiling pan, woke up long enough to banish all of the generals who were spouting for war with Taiwan. That tells me that between Manure-O and the dirt-napping Ayatollahs, Xi got the message that their military gear was not only NOT on a par with the U.S., but it isn't on a par with WHAT WE SHOW THEM WE HAVE. (There is sooooo much advanced weaponry that is not being revealed . . . .) Apparently the more logical Dragon minds said, "We can't beat their second tier stuff. How do we compete with the All-Pros?")

๐Ÿงต1. Learning about the horrors of *Wickard v. Filburn* is a canon event for legal conservatives.

Ever since that case was decided in 1942, the U.S. governmentโ€™s reach has been effectively limitless.

โ€œEven wheat grown and consumed on a family farm is within Congressโ€™s reach!โ€ Image
2. No, ChatGPT didnโ€™t hallucinate; thatโ€™s literally what SCOTUS said in *Wickard v. Filburn*: growing wheat on your own land for your own use can be regulated by the U.S. government because it affects โ€œinterstate commerce.โ€

New Deal judicial activism at its peak.
3. Ohio farmer Roscoe Filburn grew extra wheatโ€”a little more than federal regulators in Washington had โ€œallowedโ€ him to growโ€”to feed his animals and family.

But that wheat never entered interstate commerce.

In fact, it was never sold and never even left Filburnโ€™s family farm in Montgomery County, Ohio (near Dayton).Image
