Military Summary Channel produces 2/day briefings and map updates on the war in Ukraine. I've noticed the western press continues to pump out gibberish that is simply disconnected from reality. By contrast there is a small industry of military analysts who post regular updates on the war in Ukraine that gives an immeasurably better sense of the actual situation. You can find pro-Western analysts like Deep State and pro-Russian mappers, but it doesn't make much difference because these guys have to stay anchored to reality in a way the news media does not.

Great start to the day! White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt speaks to the press.

President Trump takes questions from reporters at a press briefing in the White House.

Far-left NBC News is signaling nothing will change by announcing anti-Trump activist Yamiche Alcindor will return to the White House briefing room. “I’m heading back to the White House beat for @NBCNews to cover the second Trump administration,” Alcindor wrote on Xwitter. “It’s a true honor to be a journalist and I welcome all news tips and story ideas.” One must admit, the lack of typos in that xweet is impressive considering the size of her fingers. On top of taking up room for two in the White House briefing room, Alcindor regularly made headlines during Donald Trump’s first term...

He’s not Hidin’ anymore! President Biden suggested Friday that next month’s election may not be peaceable, as he made his first White House briefing room appearance since taking office — and continued a lame-duck explosion in his press availability after years of shunning interviews and news conferences. “I’m confident it will be free and fair. I don’t know whether it will be peaceful,” the retiring 81-year-old president said during his surprise 15-minute appearance in response to a question from National Public Radio’s Tamara Keith. “The things that [former President Donald] Trump has said and the things that he said last...

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) on Wednesday explained his apparent flip-flop on a controversial surveillance law, saying that he now favors limited reforms after receiving a classified briefing. Speaker Johnson was asked by reporters why he changed his opinion on reforming Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), a controversial surveillance law that is meant to target foreign adversaries, but often surveils Americans’ communications without a warrant. Johnson this week came out against a warrant requirement for Section 702 and moved not to allow an amendment that would have barred intelligence and law enforcement agencies from purchasing Americans’ private...

Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report revealed President Joe Biden’s mishandling of classified information, indicating a pattern of carelessness dating back to at least 2010. The report highlighted a significant cognitive decline in Biden, making his handling of classified materials politically damaging. “Classified information of any kind may only be reviewed or discussed in secured locations, and never in a public place such as on a train,” Cynthia Hogan wrote. “The [classified briefing] books must remain in your custody, or that of your cleared staff, at all times unless they are in your safe. Classified material must be returned to your...

Leading Democrats and Republicans are unanimous in thinking that the United States should provide more military and financial assistance for Ukraine, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Thursday after a closed-door briefing on the state of the Russia-Ukraine war. “The briefing made it so clear that we need to continue significant aid to Ukraine,” he told reporters.

The White House has repeatedly refused to answer questions about the special counsel investigation into President Joe Biden’s mishandling of classified material. However, a “source familiar with the matter” told CNN that the documents included “U.S. intelligence memos and briefing materials” about Ukraine , the United Kingdom, and Iran dating from 2013 through 2016. This is important, especially when we consider who might have had access to Biden’s documents. There is likely no individual more familiar with the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop than New York Post columnist Miranda Devine, who literally wrote the book on it. On Wednesday, she...

Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), the chair of the Senate’s Select Committee on Intelligence, demanded a briefing from President Joe Biden’s Justice Department on Tuesday about the stash of classified documents at UPenn reportedly related to Ukraine and Iran and dated between 2013 and 2016. Warner stated he wanted a briefing on Biden’s mishandling of classified documents related to congressional oversight powers. The requested briefing flies in the face of the media’s decision to downplay the national security breach.

President Biden will meet with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) on Wednesday when he travels to the state to tour damage from Hurricane Ian. DeSantis and Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Deanne Criswell will give Biden a briefing “on the current response and recovery efforts,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters on Tuesday.

Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) is requesting the Biden administration brief senators amid escalating tensions with Russia over its military buildup along the Ukrainian border. A source familiar with the matter confirmed that Schumer had asked for an all-Senate briefing with the administration for next week, when senators — who are currently dispersed across the country — will return from their current one-week break.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has requested an all-member briefing on the evolving situation in Ukraine, her office confirmed to The Hill, amid growing concerns of a Russian military incursion. Pelosi’s office didn’t immediately provide further details of the request, which was first reported by Punchbowl News.

President Trump has approved President-elect Joe Biden to receive classified presidential daily briefings, or PDBs, a White House official tells The Post. Trump approved the sharing of intelligence with Biden after authorizing the General Services Administration on Monday to ascertain that Biden is president-elect, beginning a formal transition.
