Trumpist America is shifting at the speed of light toward totalitarianism. Republican Senator Josh Hawley is tabling legislation for jailing Americans for 20 years if they dare download DeepSeek. Time to rise up to shut totalitarianism down.

Trump officials pause health agencies’ communications, citing review The agencies are charged with making decisions that touch the lives of every American and are the source of crucial information to health-care providers.

NEW—Trump WH has blocked all CDC science reports (eg MMWR) & suspended all CDC / FDA / NIH external communications of all HHS agencies until further notice... including all FDA & CDC Health Alert warnings & all social media. Public health be damned.

We failed to stop fascism's rise. Now it's dancing about on the White House lawn. I don't know how to fix all this but I do know that the shit we've been doing won't get us out of this one.

Thread of ~45 geolocated SDF drone attacks (mostly) vs SNA on Tishrin Dam front and 5 around the Qaraqozak bridge to the north, btw Jan 8 - 14. See maps below.

The SNA has barely advanced in the past week, with SDF tunnels + drones keeping them still several km west of Tishrin Dam

Not that unclear. HTS already gave the YPG an ultimatum to leave. YPG refused. HTS has attacked YPG several times, including the last time HTS as Jabhat al Nursa was in Aleppo.

Rebel forces reached the statue of Bashar's deceased brother Bassel al-Assad at the eastern edge of the New Aleppo district, taking down the regime flag.

Sheikh Maqsood is the main #Kurdish neighborhood in the north of #Aleppo. Green obviously where HTS is marching into the city, coming from the west. YPG/SDF vs HTS upcoming? #Syria

Turan Tugayı: Central Asians in the Syrian National Army A Furqat al-Hamzah subfaction active on the Afrin front lines

One of the SNA groups taking part in the ongoing HTS-led Rad' al-'Udwan offensive is Afrin-based Turan Tugayı, which as far as I know is the only non-Syrian SNA brigade... it's made up of Central Asians and is affiliated with Furqat al-Hamzah/the Joint Force

If the offensive bogs down or Assad manages to counterattack, there may be a serious risk of regime chemical attacks.

High risk gamble, but more risky for Assad to lose Aleppo.

Indicator to watch for: Regime, Russian & maybe Iranian claims to have intel about forthcoming rebel false flag ops.
