5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.

Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.

I was under the impression that with this president we were going to be doing β€œso much winning”

Maybe this what he meant back in 2016, when he said that we were gonna be β€œtired of winning” and he’d say β€œWe have to win more!”

Be sure to watch the 60 Minutes segment. It's infuriating.

Fuzzy memories and hard facts: An SC accuser's claims against Epstein, Trump examined An alleged victim of Jeffrey Epstein gave FBI agents true accounts of her time growing up in SC. Claims she made about Donald Trump remain unsubstantiated.

"A woman who claims she was abused as a minor by both Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump has given the FBI vivid accounts that include aspects of her life corroborated by the The Post and Courier through public records."

These people are, to be blunt, substantially less intelligent than they believe they are.

Inevitably, for all dictators (or wanna be dictators), all roads lead back to monarchy

All over the world we see this

So it’s not surprising that a revolution that overthrew a monarchy ultimately leads back to the same place

Tarrio is, quite literally, a pardoned terrorist.

As a New Yorker, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t extremely concerned about the increased probability of another terror attack here

There’s a certain level of complacency in the air. Folks at the Fed level are either overburdened, distracted, unqualified, corrupt or incompetent

Dangerous combo

America can’t afford Trump’s war with Iran for long The economy has already taken damage from inflation, tariffs and a government shutdown.

I can’t afford health insurance but sure go ahead and spend billions in my name bombing people who never did me any harm.
