Washington Post: The House is laying the groundwork to investigate Trump's use of Musk's AI chatbot, Grok, to plan the military operation and capture of Maduro, according to those people. Lawmakers are also eyeing Apple over its hosting of tracking apps used by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and Meta over its demands that local governments sign nondisclosure agreements related to data center development.

For the first time in the British Social Attitudes survey, a majority of Brits (56%) now want defence spending increased.
The desire for more spending reflects the alchemy of increasing threat perceptions and low levels of HMG spending, a reverse of the Cold War's end. (1/2)

Another example of how quickly Turkey has been rolling out new military technology - demonstrating a drone mothership for launching smaller FPV ones. Get the targeting and swarming right and this could be a nightmare for a conventional military

Excl: The Conservatives have turned to David Cameron to boost fundraising and rally supporters, with the ex-PM taking top billing at Tory events and reaching out to donors
Cameron is appearing at benefits like the Two Cities Tory association annual lunch next month, where tickets cost up to £345 to bolster party coffers
He’s also been calling on existing and lapsed Tory donors to try to entice them back into the tent and open their wallets
Cameron and Badenoch are talking regularly, acc to people familiar with the matter... a striking rapport given their differences of opinion on EU, green agenda, aid etc
FT revealed earlier this year that Cameron was assisting Badenoch with PMQs prep

The WSJ lays out what keeping Gulf oil flowing actually involves:
-50,000 US troops, 20 Navy ships, two carriers across the region.
-$2–3 Billion USD/month or 67-100 Million USD/day above normal military spending
-Aircraft, warships and crews under mounting strain.
-Some US officials see the situation as untenable without more international help. Coalition efforts have failed.

Exclusive: In a series of interviews with @thetimes and behind the scenes discussions with American influencers the defence secretary says:
- The Ministry of Defence has been working towards 3 per cent by 2030 for weeks
- He is open to Special Forces and Britain's nuclear deterrent coming under scrutiny by MPs and Lords on the ISC.
He says they can be trusted to handle Britain's utmost secrets despite potential backlash.
But he launches defence of SF saying politicians are to blame for their behaviour and they are being subjected to a "smear campaign" by the courts
- China is a threat not just a challenge
- The MoD needs to de-risk Palantir software and build its own version.
- He has stockpiled at home and you should too
Plus details on his extraordinary life, how "defence is in his blood" and rise through politics
