The #FAA requires all active aircraft to be registered with the agency, with exceptions that include periods of ownership transfer & “aircraft of the national defense forces of the United States,” according to federal #law.
That registration number had been reserved by a company that has no obvious website & lists its address as a mailbox at a UPS store in Virginia, records show.#Trump #Congress #WarPowers #CIA #FishingBoats #Ecuador #WarCrimes #ExtrajudicialKillings #InternationalLaw

It flew under a #US registration number, according to radio transmissions, & taxied to a #military section of the airport upon landing.

The strikes are separate from the #Pentagon’s campaign against alleged drug boats that began last fall. Those strikes have been fiercely criticized by #HumanRights groups & most Democratic lawmakers, who say they are #extrajudicial #murders. The admin has justified the strikes by equating “narco-terrorists” with militants assaulting the #US.

But #Trump & senior officials in his admin have said in recent days that a deal is imminent to end the war he launched in February & which polls show most US voters oppose.

"The concession has already been made regarding some form of control over #Hormuz," one of the regional sources told Reuters.
The other regional source said there were still details to be determined about how "control" would be defined, with Gulf negotiators insisting regional countries supervise inspections of ships, & that any payment of fees be “voluntary”.

TELL YOUR SENATORS TODAY: Continue filibustering the NDAA bill!
Last July, Democrats (including our own senators Padilla and Schiff) filibustered in the Senate to block an outrageously bad National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). We must urge our senators to not only continue standing fast against this NDAA but to work with other Democratic senators to do the same.

⬆️ @Dhmspector
#Trump is profiting immensely from his war in #Iran. Here, he's trying to steer public attention away from his own #corruption and self-enrichment by laying the blame on #oil companies.
>> The #Democrats need to [say something] — but won’t because they just too stupid…
No, they are not stupid. Just greedy, and partaking in #bipartisanGrift -- which is exactly why the #WarPowers Resolution failed so many times. It is a good-cop/bad-cop symbiotic compact.

The #US military said Wednesday that it launched more strikes on #Iran targets in response to Tehran’s attack on US forces in the #MiddleEast. The latest barrage came after the US partnered with #SaudiArabia to strike Iran-backed militias in neighboring #Iraq, killing at least 20 fighters & 6 Iranian advisers.
#Trump had vowed to retaliate after Iran targeted a base in Jordan that hosts US troops.

Iran is expected to receive a first shipment of up to 400 Chinese-made shoulder-fired air-defense missile launchers, 3 sources told Reuters, as it rebuilds its defenses amid #war with the #US.

The Pentagon’s top spokesman, Sean Parnell, took to social media that day to assert that the reported drop was a “temporary data disruption.”

#Pentagon press secretary Joel Valdez argued Thursday that the drop in casualty figures in the online system was not an effort to hide the growing human toll of the #war but rather the result of “anomalies” & “temporary data disruptions” that were being resolved “imminently.”
As late as Tuesday, the website was reporting the war’s official toll as 18 killed & 482 wounded.
