Friday. Every week a Team is assembled to ensure the Corner runs smoothly, and yet there always seems to be a hole to plug or a gap that widens, chinks in the armor that end up being caused by one or two slackers who take extra breaks or fall asleep on duty.

With that, I present this week's Magnificent Watch - guaranteed* to be 100% effective : @SetantaADV has the Duty.

I would prefer someone with a name like Sheikhdoon Abdullahi Mohamud not be in my country at all, actually.
NEW: The FBI has thwarted a terror attack on the Mall of America in Minnesota involving an ISIS sympathizer named Sheikhdoon Abdullahi Mohamud.
The 18-year-old male was arrested and charged for allegedly planning a mass casualty attack.
Mohamud was reportedly under investigation for multiple years and traded messages with a confidential informant.
Mohamud was arrested on Tuesday in a public park when he tried to pay $600 to an undercover FBI employee for an AK-47 and 200 rounds of ammunition.
In text messages, he allegedly confirmed his intention to carry out an attack against non-Muslims.
Mohamud had previously told the informant that he planned on going to Somalia to join the Islamic State.
When he came to the conclusion that he didn't have the money to make it overseas, he allegedly decided to commit to martyrdom and commit mass violence at home in Minnesota.
"I am 100% committed to the cause of dying for the sake of Allah only," he said in one message.
He planned to target the Hmong Arts Celebration at the Mall of America on Oct. 24 because "it will be a lot of people."

Can we knock off being agents of abusing the “rules” @Safety @Support @X @elonmusk ? These automatic suspensions, initiated by people who are merely trying to block speech as a tactic, have grown extremely old and tiresome.

Re-emphasis on the Panama Canal, the relations with Milei in Argentina (Tierra del Fuego), Morocco (Gibraltar), and ASEAN (Straits of Malacca). Actions in Suez and Hormuz.
Now comes Greenland.
Those who have not familiarized themselves with A. T. Mahan's strategy of US Naval Power should look into it to understand how this benefits the US, while we increase our Naval capabilities.

SHADOW WARTHOGS HOME FROM IRAN — Exclusive Nose Art Drop at Moody AFB
These A-10C Thunderbolt IIs just rolled back onto the flight line at Moody AFB after flying combat operations in support of some very sensitive work over Iran.
A follower trusted me with these exclusive shots straight from the ramp. For obvious OPSEC reasons I’m not going any deeper on the missions, the units, or the timelines, but the jets themselves are talking loud and clear.
Swipe through this insane collection of nose art and mission markings:
Doc Holliday staring you down with “Criminals + Vagrants… BEWARE.”
The Grim Reaper himself mid-swing.
King Dedede living his best life.
Diddy Kong riding a jet engine like it’s a banana barrel.
Samus Aran locked and loaded in full power suit.
Macho Man Randy Savage — “The Cream of the Crop.”
Lil Mac throwing hands with the “K.O.” tally.
And Ridley, the Metroid nightmare, repping on the final frame.
These aren’t just morale paint jobs. Look at the rows of mission tallies and ordnance marks along the fuselages, every single one represents a real sortie into contested airspace. Did you guys catch the two boats??
One of these Warthogs was directly involved in the combat recovery of an F-15 pilot and weapons officer who went down over Iran. In the background of the shots you can see the F-15 tail with the words “That Others May Live”, the sacred motto of the rescue forces. When the call came, the A-10 answered. Close air support, on-station protection, and the quiet work of bringing our people home.
This is the side of airpower that stays in the gray. No fanfare. No press releases. Just lethal, ugly, beautiful Warthogs doing what they were built to do, and then disappearing back into the shadows until the next time they’re needed.
Huge respect to the crews who flew these jets home and to the follower who shared them with me.

Let me introduce you.. to ... you
I've warned for months that a @JetBlue-@SpiritAirlines merger would have led to fewer flights and higher fares.
@JusticeATR and @USDOT were right to stand up for consumers and fight against runaway airline consolidation.
This is a Biden win for flyers! apnews.com/article/jetblue-s…
