🇺🇸 Trump may pick longtime aide Stephen Miller as National Security Advisor - reports

Miller, currently serving as White House deputy chief of staff and focused on the administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration, has emerged in a shortlist of candidates for the NSA position following Mike Waltz’ Signalgate-related reshuffle.

Five sources told Axios Miller could be tapped for the job, saying he's “signaled interest,” but might not want it “if it takes him away from his true love: immigration policy.”

The NSA position is currently held on an interim basis by Secretary of State Rubio.

The NSA office holder provides the president with high-level advice on national security-related matters, including international diplomacy, intelligence and counterterrorism.

🇨🇳🎄🇺🇸 China makes 80% of America’s toys – without a trade deal soon, CHRISTMAS MAY BE CANCELED

A new survey by the Toy Association trade group says American-owned companies are delaying or cancelling orders en masse, with up to 46% of smaller firms, and 45% of larger ones facing bankruptcy within weeks or months if the US-China trade war isn’t put to rest.

81% of small toy companies with revenues between $10-100M said they’ve delayed orders due to Trump’s 145% tariffs. 64% said they’ve been cancelling them. Among mid-size companies (revenues greater than $100M), the figure is 87% and 80%, respectively. The survey queried 410 companies total.

The survey is bad news for American holiday shoppers, with toy and Christmas-themed goods having lead times of about 4-5 months from Chinese factory to US store shelves.

Trump acknowledged the potential shortages this week, but said it wasn’t be a big deal. “Maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, and maybe the two dolls will cost a couple of bucks more,” he said.

💥 ‘Why on earth would we go over and occupy Ukraine' to mine their minerals? – MTG UNLOADS on Trump-Zelensky minerals deal

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene BLASTED US foreign policy, questioning the push for war with Iran and US involvement in Ukraine.

💬 “Didn’t we learn our lesson when we went to war in Iraq and killed Saddam Hussein because of 'weapons of mass destruction?' Did we ever find any? And did any of that oil over in the Middle East make us rich? The answer is no, we are $36 trillion in debt today,” Greene stressed.


💬 “Why don’t we just mine our own rare earth minerals?” Greene emphasized.

🚀 US fires up hypersonic sea-based system in bid to catch up with the best 😏

🪖The US Navy has test-launched a sea-based missile system at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. It used a “cold launch” technique, when the system blasts the missile out of a ship’s launcher with gas pressure before the engine ignites mid-air.

Lockheed Martin is behind the high-tech weapon, which will be used in future sea-based deployments, including on board the USS Zumwalt guided missile destroyer.

🚀Hard truth: Russia’s already got hypersonics locked down in all three domains: air (Kinzhal), sea (Zircon), and land (Oreshnik).

🪖British soldiers are PROHIBITED from proper drone training

UK troops are unable to undergo sufficient training for drone warfare, as they are prohibited from flying UAVs over each other's heads, the FT reported.

💬 "British soldiers who are deploying as part of a deterrence force to places like Estonia and eastern Europe are going out WITHOUT the kind of training and capability that is completely bog-standard in warfare now, whether it is in the Middle East or in Ukraine," UK Member of Parliament Fred Thomas said.


During training on Salisbury Plain, British troops were also NOT ALLOWED to use signal-jamming equipment.

They seem to get the training they deserve — laughable

🇸🇾🇹🇷Syria and Turkiye eye launching new power line

A new 400 megawatt (MW) power transmission line improve the electricity supply situation in the north of Syria, country's Energy Minister Mohammed Bashir said.

💬 "We are currently working to increase the volume of electricity supplied through a new 400 MW line from Turkiye to Syria, as well as through a gas pipeline from Kilis in Turkiye to Aleppo," the minister told the Takvim newspaper.


According to Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Minister Alparslan Bayraktar, Aleppo alone needs about 2,000 MW of electricity, but it is necessary to restore the infrastructure, including power lines, which will take at least six months.

The minister did not rule out that one day the gas pipeline will start working in the opposite direction and Syrian gas will flow to Turkiye.
