Previously unseen footage from July shows an Iranian ballistic missile impact at Jebel Ali, UAE.
The missile evades air defense interceptors and strikes dangerously close to U.S. personnel stationed at the base.

Jeffries: The days of the unfettered Trump crime spree are coming to an end. The American people have had enough.
They’ve seen the unprecedented corruption unleashed on the American people, and they know that there’s a cost to corruption.
Because if you have all of these folks who are part of the Trump cartel, both inside the administration and outside the administration, who have been so focused on enriching themselves, their family members, their friends, and their donors, then they’re not focused on actually making life more affordable and improving the quality of life of the American people.
Which is why we’re now seeing that corruption and its cost have emerged as a top issue for the American people. That’s why Democrats are promising full, complete, relentless accountability when the new Congress begins in just a few month

Jeffries: No one who’s part of the Trump cartel is going to get a pass.
We’ve made clear that if you have folks who have been stealing from the American people, shortchanging the American people, and screwing over the American people, which is exactly what we’ve seen during the first two years of the Trump administration, that we are going to hold you accountable using every tool available to the United States Congress.

Meidas Touch: Service members, contractors, and military families share photos, videos, and firsthand accounts of the Iran war that they say the Pentagon has kept from the American public.
MeidasTouch, in coordination with our partner VALOR Media Network, has obtained dozens of never-before-published photos and videos showing damage to U.S. military installations in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain, along with firsthand accounts from people who were there. They describe destroyed aircraft, bombed-out barracks and mess halls, troops digging their own foxholes, and military families hiding in parking garages while Iranian missiles flew overhead.

There is tremendous reporting being done here. I've been talking about the extensive damage to NSA Bahrain since May, but these pictures show the extent of the damage to a number of US facilities in the region and the military's inadequate attempts to protect servicemembers.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: MeidasTouch has obtained dozens of NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN photos and videos revealing devastating damage to U.S. military bases from Trump's Iran war.
Troops and military families are breaking their silence, describing being abandoned by their own government.

Sources reveal severely damaged US military bases and military leadership incompetence during Trump's Iran War:
“It’s so much worse than people realize... This is not a normal deployment.”

This is absolutely unacceptable. They are hiding their failure and abandoning our military families while Hegseth goes to football games and campaigns for Republicans. He is a failure and must be removed from office.

NEW: U.S. troops, contractors and military families say the damage to American bases in the Iran war is far worse than the Pentagon has disclosed, according to accounts and images published by MeidasTouch.
The outlet says it obtained dozens of unpublished photos and videos from bases in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, the UAE and Bahrain.
They show destroyed barracks, dining halls and aircraft, including a damaged AWACS surveillance plane at Prince Sultan Air Base.
Sources said three service members were killed in a July missile strike on barracks at a base in Jordan.
In Bahrain, military families say the Pentagon blocked a planned evacuation, leaving some to escape on their own.
“It’s so much worse than people realize,” one source said.
Sources spoke anonymously, saying they had been threatened with disciplinary action.
MeidasTouch said some claims, including the loss of a C-17 cargo plane, could not be independently verified, and the Pentagon has not confirmed several of the reported losses.

Ben Meiselas on the significance of independent media in the Trump era:
He thought he would bulldoze over us. He controlled the institutions, the media.
But people created independent news and media platforms that stood up, and citizen journalists became journalists.
We built the new structures that got out the truth and pushed out the information during this critical time.
And that gives me hope.

This is a disgusting thing to say and it says a whole lot about Darline Graham's character, or lack thereof, that she doesn't condemn it.
Trump: "But Darline's running against a radical left lunatic named Tranny Annie Andrews."

One of the coolest parts of releasing WTF America?! has been visiting local bookstores, signing copies, and meeting the wonderful people who make these places so special.
Huge thanks to Vroman’s and Flintridge Bookstore for the love and support. Please support your local independent bookstores!
