#FISA Section 702 "has been vital to countering these threats" from terrorists, #cyberattacks, espionage, WMD, @StateDept's Assistant Secretary for @StateINR
Brett Holmgren tells @CSIS
But @StateINR's Holmgren adds #FISA Section 702 "doesn't just help defend & protect US interests. It is essential to advancing & promoting US interests in the world"
"It is hard to overstate the centrality of [FISA] 702 collection to providing the secretary of state & US diplomats w/objective, timely intelligence & analysis & information, from assessments on #Russia, #China, #Iran & #NorthKorea to foreign influence" per @StateINR's Holmgren

Just watched the #CNNTownhall with 2024 Presidential candidate and former President @realDonaldTrump , as well as the post-townhall panel discussion.

One thing is clear: #America is a broken country. It's split right down the middle.

(1/)
Racial divisions and #massshootings are peaking, the economy is cratering, #poverty and #homelessness are rising.

And meanwhile, the US government is involved in, or threatening to get involved in, wars from #Ukraine to #Taiwan to #Syria to #Iran to #NorthKorea.

(2/)
When they should be working on healing the divisions in their own nation. White vs non-White, Rural vs Urban, Rich vs Poor, drug addiction, broken homes - all these are tearing America apart.

North Korea promised a lot over the past years, but they keep delivering. Solid ICBMs were hinted at as early as April 2017. 1/ Image
They also had included a solid ICBM in their current 5-Year-Plan, I think. Don’t nail me down on that one, though. I think @JosephHDempsey just mentioned an announcement of the solid ICBM in January 2021. /2

In another tweet which I will append below, I write about the dizzying diplomacy that #Eritrea #Sudan #Somalia #SouthSudan are going thru. Here, I am going to include momentous changes all happening at once. A New World Order?

This happened, via #China

newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/w…
“Last week, #SaudiArabia and #Iran announced that they would reëstablish diplomatic relations after seven years of severed ties. The two nations pledged to reopen their embassies and also agreed to begin coöperating in areas such as security and trade.”
(3) Then #SouthKorea and #Japan decided that focus on the future is more paramount than letting your interpretation of history keep u estranged for 12 yrs. #NorthKorea shot an ICBM to remind them yeah, we should meet.

Day 365 of #Russia's illegal war. A momentous day.
#Putin chose to invade #Ukraine after promising the world he would do no such thing.

As we reach the end of a year of fighting, don't forget this event I'll be on at 18:30 GMT this evening:

It's not quite the anniversary of #Russia's full invasion of #Ukraine - that is tomorrow, at 04:00 local time.

If you like my work you can buy me a coffee (see my bio)

To catch up on yesterday's news, here's the link, click & scroll:

A bumper crop for #Ukraine's army in the last 24 hours, according to #Kyiv's figures.

Almost 800 more dead Russian troops, plus 16 tanks destroyed. All the first four categories today are above average.

⭐️Kim Jong-un's sister threatened to intensify missile launches into the Pacific Ocean in response to U.S. moves - CTAC
#NorthKorea #USA #SouthKorea Image
"Recently, the movement of U.S. strategic strike assets on the Korean Peninsula has been intensifying," Kim Yo-jeong noted. She said Pyongyang is "carefully considering their impact on the security" of the DPRK and will take "appropriate responses."
"The frequency of using the Pacific Ocean as our range depends on the nature of U.S. troop action," she added, assuring that Pyongyang's "will not change" to hold "fanatics aggravating the situation" to account.

Approximate trajectory flown by the #ICBM that #NorthKorea tested today. A highly lofted trajectory.
(reconstruction based on Japanese DoD info).

When launched on a 'normal', non-lofted trajectory, the range would be 18000+ km, i.e. capable of reaching any place on Earth
Trajectory is based on rough information on apogee, range, and map with approximate impact point provided by Japanese DoD here:

It will be interesting to see what missile it concerns when Northg Korea publishes their propaganda photo's. Hwasong-17? Something new?
