waow, u don’t fuckin say, embassy manama

The U.S. Embassy has information to suggest that Iran may seek to target unspecified locations in central Manama.
We urge all Americans to remain vigilant, follow local authorities' instructions, and review the latest guidance from the U.S. Embassy.

At least two, likely three service members killed yesterday in Jordan. (spitting hairs but the correct duty status for the third one is almost certainly “duty status - whereabouts unknown” not “missing in action”)

On July 17, two U.S. service members in Jordan were killed in action as U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) and partner forces defended against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks. Additionally, one service member is currently missing in action.
Four American service members were medically evacuated to Jordanian hospitals. They have since been discharged. Other personnel who were evaluated for minor injuries have returned to duty.
Out of respect for the families, CENTCOM will withhold additional information, including the identities of the fallen warriors, until 24 hours after the next of kin have been notified.

Been a couple years since I’ve seen it but we have a Orbit the Astro T-Shirt Minigun sighting dude used to cruise around the warning track with that thing mounted to the back of a golf cart, hosing the crowd down in his t-shirt technical like Alien ISIS

What about the city of Houston? What did you like the most about it and how did you feel like the city embraced you during your time here?
I think that's probably one of the hardest things. I poured myself into this city and they poured themselves into me and into our team.
Sports are a funny thing. You have a bunch of people from different places and all kinds of different backgrounds and you're not from here. But I really found a home here. I tried to make a big difference. I tried to make a big difference when I was an active player here. I love them and they love me. I know the last little bit of time may have been a little bit rocky, but I think overall I hope that they know how much I cared for them and how much I went out there and put on the line for them.

AP: “grandpa is just saying things again”

Trump reverses himself on charging a 20% toll for transiting cargo

Trump's decision comes a day after announcing the U.S. would charge ships for safe passage on the strait.
He now says on social media that his reversal was
"based on highly productive conversations with Middle East leadership."
He says Gulf states will make "Trade and Investment Deals" into the U.S. and investments "will be MASSIVE," though it's unclear if these would be new commitments relative to what he announced after a visit last year to the Middle East.

Weiss, Muñoz, Burrows, Teng, Tatsuya Imai and Nate Pearson — Brown's six pitching additions on the major-league team — have combined for a
5.77 ERA across 256 innings.
"I still think the jury is still out," Brown said. "At the end of the day, we have some guys that have shown some bright spots. And then we have some guys that have taken some steps backwards."

the fuck is this?? Is this a beta feature that accidentally got released to prod? Because there is no law that went into effect today mandating this. Also it doesn’t work of course
