🇺🇸🇮🇷 Speaking last night to Fox News, Secretary of State and now National Security Advisor Marco Rubio stated that in a deal with the United States, Iran will be allowed to maintain its nuclear energy program, but that it must agree to halt the enrichment of uranium, only importing enriched uranium needed for its reactors.

He then claims that the only countries in the world who enrich uranium are those that have nuclear weapons, but this is just not true, as countries like Argentina, Brazil, Germany, Japan and the Netherlands all operate uranium enrichment facilities without having an active nuclear weapons program.

🇺🇸📞🇺🇳🇺🇳 — American economist Jeffrey Sachs, known for being an appeaser of the Regimes of China and Iran, said:

"We need a global government.
That's the UN."

➡️ He argues that since the atmosphere doesn’t recognize borders, carbon emissions anywhere fuel a global climate emergency.

➡️ Sachs insists that no single nation can solve this challenge alone: Only a united global authority can.

➡️ He clarifies he’s not a "globalist in general": Only when it comes to confronting climate change.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 World First: Ukrainian Maritime Drone Shoots Down Russian Flanker Jet

A Ukrainian maritime drone (USV: uncrewed surface vessel) has achieved a world-first, shooting down a Russian jet. The Flanker fighter was downed on May 2. It is the first time a fast jet has been shot down by an uncrewed vessel.

The Russian aircraft, reportedly a two-seat Sukhoi Su-30 Flanker, was operating in the eastern Black Sea, hundreds of miles from Ukrainian controlled coast. Full details have yet to emerge but it is likely that the jet was sent to interdict the USVs which were threatening the main naval base at Novorossiysk and Kerch straight. The jet would have been flying low to engage the USV with cannons or unguided rockets.

🇺🇸/🇲🇽 After designating a 170-square-mile strip along the border between New Mexico and Mexico as a “National Defense Area” in April, allowing the U.S. military to temporarily detain illegal migrants or trespassers before being handed over to Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

The U.S. Department of Defense this week established another “National Defense Area” in Southern Texas, consisting of a 63-mile-long strip running east from the border of New Mexico and Texas near El Paso. These designations follow an executive order signed last month by President Donald J. Trump, giving the Defense Department jurisdiction over the Roosevelt Reservation, a 60-foot-wide stretch of federal land that runs along the U.S-Mexico Border through New Mexico, Arizona, and California.
