Showing this to myself in 2022 and having an aneurysm

Not like most normies who stray into this strait

This really is our Suez Crisis only 10x more destructive, 10x more embarrassing, and 10x dumber

Iran’s Control of Hormuz Means It’s Exporting More Oil Today Than Before the War Tehran is letting ships carrying its crude pass through the strait, while it scares off others that would dare.

An amazing stat:

Iran exported more oil *today* than it did daily before the war.

It's the one country whose tankers are getting through the Strait of Hormuz.

Tweet from @JBKSchlossberg: “PUERTO RICO SHOULD BE A STATE. Puerto Rico deserves respect and representation. The State of Puerto Rico I would welcome. I would not welcome statehood for DC.

JFK’s grandson Jack Schlossberg, one of the leading primary contenders for New York’s dark blue 12th Congressional District, tweeted in December 2024 that he opposed D.C. statehood.

D.C. voted 85% for statehood in a 2016 referendum. House Dems passed it unanimously in 2021

This is a direct response to Utah courts overturning the GOP’s congressional gerrymander after voters passed a ballot initiative to ban gerrymandering.

Republicans already passed a law to pack the Utah Supreme Court earlier this year

The Big Strong Mayor throwing the most vulnerable people in our city to the wolves. Shame on him. Blood on his hands.

One thing is absolutely clear right now, in the early in-person vote so far, Republicans are ahead. A lot of Western, Republican-dominated localities have more votes so far than they did on the same day equivalent in 2025. There aren't any Spanberger-won localities running ahead

🚨🚨🚨

Something I want to put on everyone’s radar, ESPECIALLY if you live in Virginia.

Data suggests that *Republicans* are out early-voting Democrats in the Virginia redistricting referendum.

When it comes to Virginia, Chaz knows his stuff.

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

If they are mining the strait, nothings going in or out for months.

a load-bearing part of Trump getting away with everything is that he’s generally faced with rational actors who do their best to steer around his lunacy but the people making decisions in Iran are a guy whose entire family we just killed and some random IRGC folks and they might just go “fuck you”

We can ask Israel to stop bombing important things like oil refineries, but apparently we can’t be bothered about hospitals or schools.

There’s not going to be any convey escorts.

Do you want to know how embarrassing to US pride if one of our ships is hit or God forbid sunk?

I wouldn’t take that risk unless I was 100% sure Iran wouldn’t fire on ships in the strait.
