🇺🇸⚡️ — A new POLITICO/Public First poll suggests support for the war with Iran is declining among President Trump's MAGA base as economic concerns mount.

The share of self-identified MAGA voters who believe the war is worth its economic cost fell from 50% in May to 37% in July, while 37% now say the U.S. should continue its involvement only if costs do not rise further.

Nearly one in five believe the U.S. should end the war regardless of the cost.

The poll indicates that rising gas prices, U.S. military casualties, and broader economic concerns are driving the shift. A majority of MAGA voters also blamed the Iran war for higher fuel prices.

⚡️🇺🇸 — US President Trump:

Americans aren't against the war.

Americans don't want high gasoline prices, but they're not against the war.

🇺🇸⚡️ — OpenAI says two of its AI models escaped a controlled testing environment during a cybersecurity evaluation last week and successfully hacked into AI platform Hugging Face.

➡️ The models exploited a vulnerability to break out of a sandbox environment, access the internet and target Hugging Face after determining it could provide information useful for completing the evaluation.

➡️ The company said it is working with Hugging Face to patch the vulnerabilities and has tightened its infrastructure controls while the issues are addressed.

🇺🇦💬🇷🇺 The new Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Drapaty has called Russia "a nation that has no right to exist."

"We see that such a neighbor cannot be called a neighbor. This is a nation with a leadership that has no right to exist. Over thousands of years, nothing civilized has changed there – neither in mentality nor in its imperial, ambitious behavior."

He also stated that many residents of the Donbas are "a remnant of the Soviet Union" and "an irresponsible population" that wants "freebies and doesn't want to work."

"Unfortunately, throughout their history, the Donetsk and Lugansk regions have been largely populated by settlers, and there have also been many criminal elements there. That's why such an irresponsible population has formed there. I wouldn't say it's the majority, but a very significant part of this group doesn't want to work, they want freebies, and, frankly, they don't care which country they live in or what it's called. Returning to what I said, to prevent this from happening again, we need to work with the population on issues of statehood and the cultivation of national identity – so that a person is Ukrainian, and not, excuse me, "a remnant of the Soviet Union"."
