Washington State Ferries (WSF) is once again struggling to keep its vessels afloat ahead of the crucial Seahawks-Rams game. Two large boats serving Seattle routes are currently out of service, leaving only 15 ferries when 17 are needed for full winter service, WSF said. The Seahawks' NFC Championship game, which will determine a spot in the Super Bowl, is happening at Seattle's Lumen Field on Sunday. One of the two large ferries that's out of service is the Wenatchee, which hit a log and bent a propeller during foggy weather on Wednesday. The vessel, which is used on the Seattle-Bainbridge Island route, can carry 202 vehicles. It's one of the largest ferries in the WSF fleet.

"That's the margin for error; if one boat goes out for an unplanned breakdown, we don't have another boat to replace it." That^ is Washington State Ferries Executive Director Steve Nevey, talking about the critical state our ferry system is in due to a lack of boats. But while we wait 5 years for Florida to build the first of our new ferry boats, let's take a look at how we got here... In the early 2010s, the legislature approved funding for x4 Olympic Class ferries, which were all built here in Seattle at Vigor's shipyard on Harbor Island, by 2018. Around this time, the legislature approved funding for x5 more diesel powered Olympic Class ferries. Then came Governor Inslee's infamous Executive Order 18-01. Executive Order 18-01 “begins the transition to a zero-carbon-emission ferry fleet, including the accelerated adoption of both ferry electrification and operational improvements that will conserve energy and cut fuel use.” In layman's terms; the ferries could no longer be straight diesel. Still, Vigor pivoted and planned on constructing the first new hybrid electric ferry by 2023, with the 5th boat by 2028. Then came the cost estimate debacle. Vigor pushed back on the estimated cost of the new ferry design (cost estimates were exponentially more expensive than diesel designs and what the state had budgeted) and the end result was them backing out of the x5 ferry contract altogether. This is 2022. In 2023, Vigor began retrofitting the ferry Wenatchee for its new hybrid propulsion system. This pulled the largest boat in the fleet out of the water for a planned 12 months...that turned into nearly 2 years, followed by months of breakdowns afterwards. The conversion was such a failure that Governor Bob Ferguson put the other planned conversions on hold indefinitely. At the same time this is all happening; the legislature reset and approved funding for x3 new hybrid electric ferries in place of the x5 that never got built. Requests for bids went out and only two shipyards even bothered bidding; Nichols Brothers here in WA and Eastern Shipyard in Florida. Eastern Shipyard bid about $715 Million for all 3 ferries. Nichols Brothers, which is subjected to WA's union labor laws around shipbuilding, came in at a whopping $1 Billion plus. Even with WA's 13% in state preference credit, the bid was too much. There is a great King 5 segment if you want more details on this. Governor Bob Ferguson selected the shipyard in Florida to build the 3 boats, with the first one expected in the early 2030's. And that folks, is why your wait for the ferry can stretch for hours on the weekends. All because former Governor Jay Inslee blew up our ferry system with a single executive order in 2019.

"CHINA'S NAVY IS EXPANDING AT BREAKNECK SPEED" The U.S. Navy is still considered the most powerful in the world when it comes to firepower and tonnage, but the number of Navy ships has fallen behind China’s. The United States has 296 ships in its fleet, while China’s is on pace to surpass 400 ships this year. Despite the U.S. Navy’s goal of increasing the size of its fleet, in recent years the number of ships has been shrinking....... China’s largest state-owned shipyard, the China State Shipbuilding Corporation, built more commercial vessels by tonnage in 2024 than the entire US shipbuilding industry had since World War II. This reflects the declining shipbuilding capability of the US, which currently has only four active public shipyards compared to China’s 35 sites. The U.S. is increasingly relying on its key Asian allies, South Korea and Japan, to help revitalize its struggling shipbuilding and repair capabilities, leveraging their advanced maritime industries to counter China's dominance. The problem for the US is that they have woken up very late and time is running out......... Video for illustration:

Billionaire Vladimir Yevtushenkov says Russia must return to a Soviet-style model of full-cycle technological development after losing critical capabilities during the oil-boom years of the 2000s and 2010s. “At some point, when we began to have large amounts of petrodollars, we started living according to the principle: ‘We’ll buy everything and screw everyone,’” Yevtushenkov said. “After some time, it turned out that you can't buy everyone, you can't buy everything, and you can't screw everyone,” he added. He said Russia is now being forced to return to the legacy of the USSR, which he described as one of only two full-cycle technological powers of its era, alongside the United States. “Today, again, there are two technological powers: the United States and China,” Yevtushenkov said.

World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C.: Stunning Fountains Open 24 Hours a Day 🇺🇸✨ Water, light, and history—24 hours a day. 🇺🇸💦✨ The World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., reopened in 2026 after a major renovation, and its stunning fountains are once again flowing day and night. A powerful tribute to the heroes of World War II and a must-see destination in the nation’s capital. The World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., is one of the nation’s most iconic landmarks, honoring the service and sacrifice of the Greatest Generation. Its beautiful fountains typically operate seasonally from March through December and remain open 24 hours a day during that period. Following an extensive lighting and mechanical system renovation, the memorial reopened in May 2026, just in time for Memorial Day weekend, with its fountains once again flowing around the clock. During the winter months, the fountains are turned off to protect them from freezing temperatures, but for most of the year they provide a breathtaking display of water, light, and remembrance in the heart of the nation’s capital. 🇺🇸💦✨ 🔥 #WorldWarII #WorldWarIIMemorial #WashingtonDC #HistoryLivesHere #GeovannyVicenteRomero

BREAKING NEWS: U.S. PRESIDENT Donald Trump is furious with NATO—as the Straits of Hormuz re-open, but only for Chinese, Indian and Pakistani ships. “I have never heard him so angry in my life,” Senator Lindsay Graham posted on X a few hours ago. Also a few hours ago, Trump ordered US armed forces to drop heavy bombs on the coast of Iran to destroy reinforced missile launchpads—but the Iranians have been using mobile launchpads to avoid this specific action. . HORMUZ IS OPEN The Strait of Hormuz is open for the world’s ships to pass through, Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi, told reporters last night at a press conference in Tehran. “It is only closed to our enemies, to those who carried out unjust aggression against our country and to their allies,” he said. Analysts around the world, including in the west, agree that the US-Israel attack was illegal. “From March 1 to March 15, a total of 11 China-linked vessels transited the Strait of Hormuz,” reported Lloyds List, a shipping data center. But then traffic dropped to zero and is now very gradually rising again. Turkey is also in talks with Iranian authorities to ensure that they are on the safe list. Iran has also said it will favor ships doing business in yuan instead of the US dollar. . TRUMP VOWS VENGEANCE Trump, meanwhile is planning vengeance on the Europeans, Graham said. “The repercussions of providing little assistance to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America,” he said, reporting Trump’s threats. US allies are stuck. Japan, South Korea, the U.K., France and Italy are still hoping the US Navy can strong-arm access for them. They "are largely coordinating with the U.S. and exploring naval escort options rather than negotiating directly with Tehran," says a note to investors by JP Morgan analysts. . 'AFFILIATION CHECKPOINT' Vessel trackers note that some vessels can be seen moving between Larak and Qeshm, two Iranian islands. "This is not a standard route for vessels and could reflect a process designed to confirm vessel ownership and cargo, enabling passage for ships that are not affiliated to the U.S. or its allies," the JP Morgan analysts said. . REMARKABLE ACHIEVEMENT With their brutal and sustained bombing attacks on Iran, Trump and Netanyahu have achieved something remarkable: they have turned the Iranians into heroes, undoing years of demonization.

Seattle Police Chief Shon Barnes' opening remarks at a press conference Monday morning about the mass shooting at the Bite of Seattle food festival Sunday night. Barnes was out of state at a conference, so not present, during the first press conference that occurred just before 11 p.m. Sunday night. Barnes said the shooting was the result of two individuals firing at each other, and the victims were caught in the crossfire. A 15-year-old suspect was detained and booked for investigation of first-degree assault and firearms violations, but no one is formally under investigation for homicide at this point. Police are working to identify a second suspect. Full story here: #komo #komo4 #komonews #seattle

The EU intends to launch its central bank digital currency—the digital euro—in October of this year. European Central Bank head Christine Lagarde: "It is piloted on a fairly large scale in China, [where it] is of use and of service to all citizens." "So it is not something that is good for the elite, or is good for the young, or is good for some versus others." "If it is well done, and if it is well implemented, it would be of service to all citizens." CBDCs not only enable authorities to track who spends what, where, and when—they are programmable, allowing money to be restricted for specific uses, the imposition of expiry dates, and the ability to freeze or limit spending based on user behaviour or location. Once integrated with digital ID, facial recognition, social credit scores and carbon allowances, CBDCs facilitate totalitarian control on an unprecedented scale.

🚨🇷🇺🇨🇳🚢 Russia and China are moving to turn the Arctic into a regular Europe-Asia shipping corridor as instability around the Strait of Hormuz threatens traditional trade routes. According to Reuters, Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom, which operates the Northern Sea Route (NSR) through the Arctic, has issued permits for seven Chinese transit vessels to sail to Europe via the route. Rosatom chief Alexey Likhachev said the 2026 program represents a major shift from previous operations: "Unlike previous container shipments via the Northern Sea Route, which were largely experimental or one-off, the 2026 program provides for a fully-fledged regular service, with vessels sailing every week throughout the navigation season." Likhachev argued that the Northern Sea Route is increasingly becoming a transport corridor of global importance, particularly as instability in the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz increases logistical and political uncertainty along traditional maritime routes. The development highlights growing Russia-China cooperation in the Arctic, with Moscow seeking to transform the NSR into a commercially viable alternative connecting Asian and European markets while Beijing gains another potential route less exposed to disruptions in the Middle East.

Not even a full month since every 🇺🇦 stan on this platform was full of joy that Russia will never be able to launch men into space again, 18 trucks deliver elements and equipment necessary for the restoration of the service cabin that was damaged following the launch of Soyuz rocket at Baikonur, Kazakhstan. 130 employees of Roscosmos enterprises are involved in the repair work at the 31st launch pad, said Dmitry Baranov, the corporation's deputy general director. According to him, priming and painting work is currently underway, and the readiness of the launch complex for the first launch is scheduled for the end of winter 2026. Baranov noted that the schedule of repair work has been formed, approved, and is under strict control, and also refuted rumors about the termination of the Russian manned program, urging not to speculate on the subject of the occurred malfunction.

We’ve obtained exclusive footage revealing what really happened on August 11, when the Philippines intruded into waters around China’s Huangyan Island under the pretext of supplying fishing boats. In reality, the Philippines not only trespassed — it carried out reckless maneuvers and then tried to hype up the incident. Ignoring repeated warnings, multiple Philippine vessels pushed into waters near Huangyan Island. Among them, PCG ship 4406 made a series of high-speed crossing maneuvers in front of the bow of CCG ship 3104 — not once, but repeatedly. Then, on August 13, a US destroyer illegally entered China’s territorial waters off Huangyan Island without approval. Two intrusions. Two days apart. One message: Washington and Manila are running a coordinated show to turn the South China Sea into their stage. China’s warning is clear: if Manila persists with provocations, it will face targeted countermeasures. Repeated provocations will come with a cost.

"Putin has reached a dead end" Russia’s situation is now extremely difficult. 1. Militarily, it is stuck. The chance of controlling Ukraine is zero. 2. Economically, more than two-thirds of Russia’s liquid sovereign wealth fund reserves are gone, the Kremlin is now using more than 40% of the federal budget to sustain the war, while interest rates remain around 15% and inflation above 5%. 3. But strategically, leaving Ukraine would mean admitting a historic Russian failure. That is the only reason this war continues. Europe must keep the pressure until Russia either accepts real security guarantees for Ukraine or chooses, out of imperial pride, to collapse its own country.

The Russia-Ukraine war has moved to the sea and effectively blocked the Black Sea for international trade. Trade logistics are blocked for both Russia and Ukraine. Russia is destroying Ukrainian ports and attacking commercial vessels, including those of third-party states. In July, Ukraine recorded 35 Russian attacks on ships in ports, 22 attacks on ships at sea, and 67 strikes on port infrastructure. On 19 July, a Russian strike on the corn-carrying merchant vessel Golden Leo near Odesa killed ten people. In response, Ukraine has expanded its campaign against Russian tankers, terminals, and routes through the Sea of Azov, the Kerch Strait, and Novorossiysk. Ukraine is clearly demonstrating goodwill toward peace, in contrast to Putin’s Russia. In particular, Ukraine, through Türkiye, submitted a proposal for a moratorium on attacks on commercial vessels in the Black Sea. Turkish FM Hakan Fidan said Türkiye had conveyed it to the Russian side and is now awaiting Moscow’s response. Ankara has effectively taken on the role of mediator and is trying to turn the Ukrainian proposal into an arrangement acceptable to both sides. For Türkiye, the war on maritime routes has already become a direct problem for its own security and economy. Turkish vessels, companies, and crews are coming under attack. After the 4 August attack on on a Turkish-owned vessel near Novorossiysk, which left three crew members seriously injured, the Turkish Foreign Ministry called on Russia and Ukraine to take measures to ensure the safety of civilian navigation. Türkiye also faces a mine threat: together with Romania and Bulgaria, it has created the Mine Countermeasures Black Sea Task Group to search for and destroy drifting mines. Türkiye’s strategic goal is to preserve a controlled balance of power in the Black Sea and its own central role in it. Ankara supports Ukraine’s territorial integrity, does not recognize Russia’s annexation of Crimea, and is interested in preserving Ukraine as a fully functioning Black Sea state. Russian control over the Ukrainian coastline would be disadvantageous for Türkiye. At the same time, Ankara does not want a rupture with Russia, which remains an important trade and energy partner. Türkiye is also not interested in a permanent large-scale naval presence by non-Black Sea NATO states. The 1936 Montreux Convention remains the foundation of its policy. After the start of the full-scale war, Ankara restricted the passage of warships belonging to the warring parties through the Bosporus and Dardanelles, making it more difficult for Russia to reinforce its Black Sea Fleet. However, Türkiye has far less room to maneuver when it comes to commercial vessels: the Montreux Convention does not allow it to arbitrarily block civilian transit as a means of political pressure. Türkiye has enough tools to organize a maritime agreement, but cannot itself guarantee its implementation. Ankara maintains direct channels with Kyiv and Moscow, controls the straits, has the largest naval potential among NATO’s Black Sea members, and has experience from the 2022 Black Sea Grain Initiative. At that time, Türkiye and the UN coordinated vessel movements and inspections through the Joint Coordination Centre in Istanbul. In 2026, Türkiye is also involved in preparations for a Maritime Component Command that could help secure a future peace in the Black Sea. In practical terms, Ankara could establish a new coordination center, maintain a registry of protected vessels, agree on routes, share information with the parties, and organize monitoring. But if Russia or Ukraine decides to continue strikes, Türkiye itself cannot ensure the security of a corridor without a significantly broader military-political agreement. What might the most realistic compromise look like? Most likely it would not be a general maritime ceasefire, but a narrower agreement covering grain, specific vessels, and designated routes. Protected vessels could be pre-registered through a Turkish coordination mechanism, listing their IMO number, flag, owner, cargo, and route. The first stage could cover grain, food, and fertilizers, as well as designated terminals in Odesa, Chornomorsk, Pivdennyi, Novorossiysk, and other agreed ports. For Ukraine, it is crucial that such protection not automatically extend to Russian oil tankers and the shadow fleet: strikes on oil logistics are an important means of putting pressure on Russian revenues. Russia, for its part, may try to tie its consent to sanctions relief, Russian Agricultural Bank’s access to international payments, vessel insurance, and fertilizer exports. The central issue in negotiations would therefore not be the principle of a moratorium itself, but its scope: which vessels, cargoes, ports, and routes would be protected, and what would remain a legitimate target. For Ukraine, an acceptable basis could be the safety of Ukrainian civilian agricultural exports in exchange for the safety of Russian civilian food exports, without automatically extending protection to all Russian maritime trade.

In Ukraine, there are two camps. One stands for peace, the other for war. And it’s time we spoke about this openly. I believe the latter are fewer in number, yet far louder than anyone else. Of course — behind them stand enormous funds for propaganda and a license for impunity. They have thousands of talking heads, useful idiots, and people paralyzed by despair. They are ready to intimidate, harass, unleash bots, turn half the nation into “enemies of the people,” lecture and moralize, and teach you that your sons must die for the state. They insist that if you want the war to end, there’s something wrong with you — you’re naïve, stupid, or even insane. They claim there is no corruption, that all Ukrainians must remain poor, and that the conscription officers — which hunt men like animals and are notorious for torture and human rights abuses — are mere “Russian propaganda.” They say peace is impossible solely because of Putin, that the best hero is a dead hero, and that everyone shown on television is telling the truth. And then there’s the eternal message: “Just endure a little longer.” A few more months and we’ll win. Another six months and Russia will run out of resources. One more year and the war will be over. Every autocracy has had its propaganda. And every one operated on the same principle: silence, destroy, and hound the critics — while filling the media with the “right” people and the “right” messages. This summer, the last attempt this year to end the war will be made. It will be presented as American pressure, a betrayal of the Ukrainian people, especially Zelenskyy, or collaboration with Russia. They notice only the negative, and only when it’s time to shift blame onto someone else. As you may have noticed, according to Zelenskyy, everyone is guilty. Biden is guilty for talking about war and sowing panic. The West is guilty for not giving weapons on time. Trump is guilty for negotiating with Putin and trying to bring everyone to the table. Ukrainian men are guilty for not wanting to go to the front. Refugees are guilty for leaving and thus not being patriots. Critics are guilty because Ukraine is losing because of them. Deputy ministers, ministers, and long-time partners are guilty as they were caught in corruption. The only ones who are never guilty… are two specific people. I won’t name them. So this time, once again, everyone will be blamed. Zelenskyy will face a choice: either drag the war out further, or once again play the role of the unfortunate victim who, under pressure, is forced to do the unforgivable. We are offered various options to end the war, but our leadership rejects them all. The price of continuing the war is always the same — more rivers of Ukrainian blood, another horrific winter without electricity or heating, and hundreds of thousands more refugees. If this summer there is no peace agreement — any agreement at all — even a shaky ceasefire or a halt to large-scale shelling, the war will drag on at least until March. Because the United States, the only viable mediator and influential player, will be preoccupied with mid-term elections, then winter holidays, and then there will be the fifth anniversary of the war… Once again, we will be told to “endure a little longer,” and once again we will be fed stories about how Russia is about to collapse any day now. The people writing these messages are not stupid. They simply believe that we — all of us — are.

NO COFFEE! US armed forces are running out of food as the planned four-day plan to “take out Iran” enters its seventh week. Vegetables, fruit, and all fresh produce has gone – and tiny meals are being served on empty meal trays on warships, USA Today reported. And there’s no coffee – something many Americans consider more important than food. . 'MYSTERY MEAT' One dinner on the USS Abraham Lincoln this week was boiled carrots and two pieces of “mystery meat”, while sailors on the USS Tripoli had a scoop of shredded meat and a tortilla as a meal. Frantic family members have been trying to mail food to troops. “But mail delivery to military ZIP codes across the Middle East has been indefinitely suspended,” the newspaper reported. The warships have no internet service, but when a pocket of connectivity opened up, one parent, Dan F, got updates. “After his daughter told him the coffee machine on board had broken down, Dan said he stopped drinking coffee in solidarity with what she's going through,” the newspaper said. Conditions are likely to be as bad or worse on other vessels, as information only leaks out occasionally. . SLEEPING ON TABLES It is known that the USS Gerald F Ford suffered major problems with its toilets, and a “laundry fire” left 600 sailors having to sleep on tables or the floor. The supercarrier made a five-day stopover in Croatia for repairs and then headed back to the Middle East, now breaking records for length of duty, at 297 days. Normal service periods are only 90 days, so military analysts warn that psychological pressure will be high. All this is yet more evidence that the attack on Iran has been the worst idea in modern American history.

ABC’s George Stephanopoulos attempted to trip up Secretary of State Marco Rubio by asking the same question about Venezuela three different times. “What is the legal authority for the United States to be running Venezuela?” And three times, Rubio shut him down. RUBIO: “I explained to you what our goals are and how we’re going to use the leverage to make it happen.” “As far as our legal authority on the quarantine, simple. We have court orders. These are sanctioned boats, and we get orders from courts to go after and seize these sanctions. Is a court not a legal authority?” STEPHANOPOULOS: “Is the United States running Venezuela right now?” RUBIO: “Well, I’ve explained once again, I’ll do it one more time.” “What we are running is the direction this is going to move moving forward, and that is we have leverage.” “This leverage we are using and we intend to use. We started using already. You can see where they are running out of storage capacity. In a few weeks, they’re going to have to start pumping oil, unless they make changes.” “That leverage that we have with the armada of boats that are currently positioned, allow us to seize any sanctioned boats coming into or out of Venezuela loaded with oil or on its way in to pick up oil.” “We can pick and choose which ones we go after. We have court orders for each one.” “That will continue to be in place until the people who have control over the levers of power in that country make changes that are not just in the interest of the people of Venezuela but are in the interest of the United States and the things that we care about.” “The legal authority is the court orders that we have.”

‼️🇺🇸🇮🇷 BIG | President Donald Trump says the United States is currently "low-keying it" with Iran, signaling that Washington is holding back from another major military escalation while allowing economic pressure on Tehran to build. According to Axios, Trump said the U.S. is maintaining only limited negotiations with Iran while closely watching the country's deteriorating economic situation. "We're only semi-negotiating with them. We're just watching Iran with its huge inflation and the fact that they have no money," Trump said. The president argued that Iran is in "very bad shape" economically and is even struggling to pay its military personnel, while the U.S. naval blockade continues to intensify financial pressure on Tehran. Trump suggested that Washington is prepared to wait rather than immediately return to large-scale military operations, calculating that mounting economic pressure could eventually force Iran toward a more favorable agreement. "It will work out. It always works out. It's like a chess game," Trump said of the confrontation with Tehran. The remarks indicate that, for now, Washington appears willing to let economic pressure do much of the work while keeping military escalation available as leverage if diplomacy fails.
