🚨BREAKING: Trump moves to shut down a U.N. agency that employed Hamas terrorists and helped massacre Americans on Oct 7.

UNRWA is “irredeemably compromised,” says the State Department.

Here’s how Trump is crushing the U.N.’s terror pipeline

THREAD 🧵

2/ The U.N. Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) was supposed to deliver aid to Palestinians.

Instead, it was a Hamas front:

🔻 Dozens of employees joined the Oct 7 attacks
🔻 U.S. taxpayer money funded it
🔻 And it glorified terrorism for decades

Enough is enough.

3/ President Trump is demanding the full dismantling of the agency.

Why?

Because Hamas doesn’t just govern Gaza.

It infiltrated and subverted the institutions meant to "help" Gaza.

🚨BREAKING: Jaguar went Bud Light mode—and now the CEO is OUT.

After a viral Woke ad with no cars, no men, and no clue, Jaguar’s CEO is stepping down.

Here’s how going Woke wrecked one of the world’s most iconic luxury brands 🧵

2/ Jaguar CEO Adrian Mardell is "retiring" just months after launching a rebrand that looked like it came straight from Dylan Mulvaney’s PR team.

The ad campaign?

No cars. No heritage. Just androgynous models, bright colors, and slogans like:

“DELETE ORDINARY.”

3/ The slogan was “Copy Nothing.”

The 30-second spot featured:

👗 A man in a dress
🌈 Loud gender-bending fashion
🚫 ZERO actual vehicles

It wasn’t a car commercial. It was a political statement.

Jaguar owners were not amused.

🚨BREAKING: Corporation for Public Broadcasting announces it will shut down after Trump, Congress cut funding

The CPB—funding arm of NPR and PBS—is shutting down after Trump pulled the plug.

Yes, really. Not "reduced". Gone.

Here’s what just happened 🧵

2/ The CPB confirmed today it will begin “an orderly wind-down of operations” after Congress passed Trump’s rescissions package, cutting its funding entirely.

After nearly 60 years of taxpayer funding, the checkbook is closed.

It’s over.

3/ CPB funneled your money to:

• NPR
• PBS
• “educational programming”
• and “public discourse”

In practice?

They used your tax dollars to push left-wing propaganda, trans ideology, and race essentialism into your kids’ living rooms.

🚀 JUST LAUNCHED: NASA and SpaceX just sent Crew-11 to the ISS—marking 25 YEARS of continuous human presence in space.

While Boeing is grounded, Elon Musk delivers.

America is winning in orbit again. Here’s what just happened 🧵

2/ With clouds parting in a perfect “horseshoe,” SpaceX’s Falcon 9 blasted off from Kennedy Space Center carrying:

🇺🇸 NASA’s Zena Cardman & Mike Fincke
🇯🇵 Japan’s Kimiya Yui
🇷🇺 Russia’s Oleg Platonov

It was SpaceX’s 4th crewed mission this year.

3/ This wasn’t just a launch.

It was another reminder that SpaceX is carrying the entire U.S. crewed spaceflight program—after Boeing’s Starliner got benched until 2026.

Two of Crew-11’s astronauts were supposed to fly Boeing. But Boeing couldn't get them up.

🚨 Is South Korea about to become the next global arms superpower?

They’ve already surpassed the U.S. in tank sales to Europe.

And they’re doing it faster, cheaper, and with fewer strings attached.

Here’s why Seoul’s rise may reinforce American primacy, not threaten it. 🧵

2/ In 2022, Poland ordered 180 tanks and 219 howitzers from South Korea.

Delivery started in four months.

That’s unheard of in the defense world—and a warning shot to Western arms makers buried in red tape.

Seoul is now setting the pace.

3/ Over 23 countries now buy Korean weapons. Their goal? Become the #4 exporter by 2027.

Bestsellers:

🇰🇷 K2 Black Panther: advanced tank
🇰🇷 K9 Thunder: dominates global howitzer exports
🇰🇷 FA-50 jet: cheaper F-16 alternative, NATO-ready
🇰🇷 KF-21 Boramae: indigenous fighter jet

🚨BREAKING: Trump just moved two U.S. NUCLEAR SUBMARINES after threats from a top Putin ally.

Dmitry Medvedev literally threatened nuclear war.
Trump's response: “Watch your words.”

The era of weakness is over. 🧵

2/ In a late-night post, Trump confirmed he ordered two nuclear subs to deploy “in the appropriate regions” after what he called “foolish and inflammatory statements” by Medvedev.

“Words are very important, and can often lead to unintended consequences.”

Indeed.

3/ Who is Medvedev?

He’s Russia’s former President and now deputy head of Putin’s Security Council. And he’s gone off the rails—posting nuclear threats, mocking peace efforts, and daring Trump to act.

This week, Trump decided to call his bluff.
