Fun Facts
“They’ll never close the Strait again” lasted a solid 10 hours.
Masterful negotiation (read: market manipulation) from Trump
Russ Vought on inflation: “We went from 9% to 3%.”
Inflation was 3% when Biden left office.
It’s 3.3% today.
Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
“All we have to fear, is fear itself”
“Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall”
“What the hell is a corner store?”
Great Presidential quotes of our time
I think most people would prefer this. #Science

Just think about how much cheaper our groceries will be, once we get all that nuclear dust.
Robert Kennedy would now be 100 years old. But his tragic assassination in 1968 denied him the privilege of watching his children grow up. However, the Senator would have been heartbroken to see the morally indefensible harm RFK Jr. is doing to the nation.
We’re about to pay Iran $6 billion to re-open the thing that was open before the war.
Art of the deal, baby.
Tens of thousands chant “Russians, go home!” at tonight’s anti-Orbán concert in Budapest’s Heroes’ Square ahead of Sunday’s Hungarian election.
Hegseth said we’ve rendered Iran combat ineffective for years to come.
Just today, Iran has launched attacks at UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Israel, damaging critical infrastructure (desalinization plants, oil pipelines, etc)
Less than a week since they shot down an F-15 and an A-10.

Lawrence O’Donnell made a great point.
Nixon won his 1972 re-election in a landslide, winning 49 states.
In 1974 he resigned.
By 1976, you couldn’t find anyone who would admit to supporting him.
Looking forward to history repeating itself.
