Tweets are flying around X about how, actually, now that Donald Trump has won, Republicans can admit that Project 2025 really is the agenda. And the thing is, no one is laughing harder than the actual staffers at The Heritage Foundation. Sources told NOTUS that, in recent days, Heritage group chats have been filled with these sorts of tweets, celebrating how conservatives "tricked the Libs into believing Project 2025 wasn't real."

Carole Cadwalladr: The era that began with the Great Disruptor's first term is over. Beware the emerging elite.

Russian state television network congratulated Melania Trump on her husband's reelection as president of the United States by showing nude photographs of her on live television, according to a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Trump has selected South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem as his next secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, according to two people familiar with the selection.

President-elect Trump is appointing Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead an effort to cut government spending, eliminate regulations and restructure federal agencies. To give you an idea of how clownish the project already is, they're calling it the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Dogecoin is the name of a cryptocoin created as a joke to mock crytocurrency speculation. People bought it for the lulz and it's currently worth 39 cents.

I really like this Sankey Diagram explanation of the numbers behind one of this year’s hottest political topics in the U.S.: How to Fix America’s Immigration Crisis. The original article adds a scrolly-telling element that makes it even better by slowly revealing each branch and explaining the data.

The Mammoth Cost of Operating America’s Combat Aircraft shows the operating cost per aircraft in 2018. Statista created this infographic when the non-partisan U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) released an overview of mission capable rates and the cost of operating U.S. military aircraft in 2020. Over 40 aircrafts were examined, Statista chose to highlight these 15 in their infographic.

The non-partisan U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) recently released an overview of mission capable rates and the cost of operating U.S. military aircraft. It examined more than 40 different aircraft types, finding that only three of them reached their mission capable goals between fiscal years 2011 and 2019. In total, the report put the collective cost of operating all of the U.S. military's aircraft fleets at $49 billion in fiscal year 2018, taking operational & support (O&S) costs such as maintenance as well as supply support in account. O&S generally makes up 70 percent of a weapon system's total life cycle costs and it includes spare parts, depot and field maintenance, contract services, engineering support and personnel, amongst other factors.

It would be nice to see how many we have in service too. The stacked bars work well. As a reader you can tell the values between operating/support and maintenance, but the total is what matters.

A troubling report from the Pentagon earlier this year revealed that suicide is the leading cause of death for Army soldiers—a population that is nearly nine times as likely to die by suicide than in combat.  “Suicide in the military continues to be a public health crisis, despite decades of targeted interventions. The rates are persistently higher than in the general population,” says Jayna Moceri-Brooks, an assistant professor at NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing who studies firearm injury prevention and suicide among service members and veterans.

New research data offers much-needed hope for veterans wrestling with combat-associated posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The study explores the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to address symptoms that persist despite standard treatments.
