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.

2) this comes on top of Trump WH’s immediate full withdrawal from the WHO. bsky.app/profile/drer...
⚠️Trump’s withdrawal from WHO is unlawful until is is approved by Congress.

The U.S. entered WHO via 1948 resolution passed by both houses of Congress. Trump WH’s unilateral action notifying the UN of US withdrawing violates US law because it does not have express approval of Congress to leave WHO.

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

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.
Important on the confirmed extent of rebel advances in Aleppo. Still apparently behind this line in west Aleppo, despite rumor mongering about central city. May change!
