Well, I finished the Series Bible and opening sequence for my Sci-Fi concept "The Invited".. @AmazonMGMStudio @hulu @netflix @AppleTV or any production company. I can email/message/mail it if your interested in picking it up!

Dude🤨 seriously? It was the perfect analogy and spot on. That's actually kinda ignorant.. we didn't tell anyone, so none of the "allies" had knowledge. If we had told someone else and then not told Japan, then your right. Straight fact is the division over a single man because he was a celebrity outside washington is ridiculous and no one can be trusted to not try and backstab him.

@AutismCapital it’s a zinger that’ll get the noodle brains going but it’s uh, more or less a literally stupid bad analogy that says japan is not actually an ally

REPORTER: "Why didn't you tell Japan about Iran?" TRUMP: "Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?" LMAO!!!! 😂😂😂

@BaronDestructo @shanaka86 They have been pulling straws because every narrative has been debunked

Usually find you insigthful but this is a dumb take: "The subtext is not historical insensitivity. It is transactional clarity. Japan depends on American protection and American-secured energy flows. The Pearl Harbor line reminds Tokyo that the relationship has always been asymmetric."

BREAKING: In a single day, Trump told the world he will spend $200 billion, deploy zero troops, freeze Iranian bank accounts, invoke Pearl Harbor to Japan’s face, reverse six allies from refusal to compliance, and keep the price of oil low. All simultaneously. None of it contradictory. The $200 billion first. Trump confirmed the Pentagon supplemental and called it “a small price to pay to make sure we stay tippy top.” This comes on top of a prior $150 billion allocation. The national debt is $38.86 trillion and will cross $39 trillion before March ends. Core PCE just printed 3.1 percent, the worst in nearly two years. GDP slowed to 1.4 percent in Q4. The money funds the war. The war funds the inflation. The inflation erodes the money. The zero troops next. Trump stated directly: “No, I’m not putting troops anywhere. If I were? I certainly wouldn’t tell YOU!” Then added: “We will do whatever is necessary to keep the price low.” Reuters reports internal discussions about US ground forces on Kharg Island, Iran’s 90 percent crude export terminal. Trump publicly denies troops while privately discussing the one deployment that would give Washington direct control over Iranian oil flows. The denial and the discussion coexist because they serve different audiences: the denial serves American voters who do not want another ground war, the discussion serves the Pentagon planners who need leverage. The financial warfare. Treasury Secretary Bessent confirmed the US is observing “major defections” within the Iranian regime. Treasury is tracking and freezing leadership bank accounts. Bessent framed it as “Baghdad Bob” collapse: “We now know where the Iranian leadership bank accounts are, and those are being frozen. And we will hold them and see who comes forward in terms of defections.” He referenced Kharg Island as a potential “US asset” if oil workers refuse coerced operations. The kinetic war degrades Iranian hardware. The financial war degrades Iranian loyalty. The alliance reversal. Six countries that said this was not their war, Japan, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands, issued a joint statement pledging support for safe passage through Hormuz. Germany’s Pistorius said “not our war” two days ago. Germany signed the pledge today. Trump’s “no free rides” doctrine converted refusal into compliance in 48 hours. The Pearl Harbor jab. During the Takaichi summit, a Japanese reporter asked why Japan was not told before the strikes. Trump responded: “Why didn’t you tell ME about PEARL HARBOR?!” Then: “You believe in surprise much more-so than us!” He followed with the leverage: Japan gets 90 percent of its oil through the Strait of Hormuz. America stations 45,000 troops on Japanese soil. The subtext is not historical insensitivity. It is transactional clarity. Japan depends on American protection and American-secured energy flows. The Pearl Harbor line reminds Tokyo that the relationship has always been asymmetric. The price management. Bessent floated sanctions relief on Iranian oil stranded on tankers. WTI trades at a $12 to $20 discount to Brent. The American consumer is partially insulated. The Asian consumer absorbs the full war premium. Every lever Trump pulled today, the spending, the denials, the freezes, the alliances, the rhetoric, converges on one objective: degrade Iran while keeping American gasoline below the political pain threshold. Six moves. One day. Zero troops. Two hundred billion dollars. And the strait that all of it revolves around is still closed. Full analysis: open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@rocknrollofall They broke the code and haven't been heard from again🤣🤣

He claimed every pop song is the same and then proved it in the most legendary way possible.

@mitchlafon Finally realizing its rigged, huh

As of 8.30 AM (EDT) - March 19th 2026 The Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame Leaderboard Fans are simply not voting for Maiden!

@AmyMcGrathKY Hey DUMBASS! READ THE BILL! Anyone legally registered is STILL registered and legal to vote🙄

Kentuckians, you would NOT be able to vote with your Kentucky REAL ID if these idiots pass the SAVE Act. You would need a passport or go find your birth cert and if you are a married woman, find your marriage cert. More barriers to exercise your RIGHT to vote… just dumb.

@students4amy 😂🤣😂🤣🤡's fake propaganda

Crowd in Cleveland boos as Ramaswamy makes his rounds

@JessicaTarlov Good

Republicans are lying to the American people when they say the SAVE Act is a voter ID law—it’s a proof-of-citizenship requirement that would make voting harder, if not impossible, for a lot of people. Passports are expensive, documents don’t always match, and the process can be a mess (been there). We should be making voting easier, not adding more hurdles. Democrats can own this by proposing their own bill that accepts a range of IDs, and includes automatic voter registration and Election Day as a national holiday for starters.

@SherrodBrown 😂🤣😂🤣as soon as Deweenie gives me my $3000 PUP payment he stole🙄

The Jon Husted-backed tariffs have now been ruled illegal. I’m calling for a payment of $1,336 from the federal government to each Ohio household as a refund for the billions Ohioans have lost on these reckless tariffs.

@OldRowSwig This followed by the RHCP burning the place down with "Fire" was the tipping point👍🤘🤘🤘

They can’t allow music that sends White boys off the goop. Limp Bizkit Nationalism Theory is REAL.

@SenFettermanPA No... mail-in votes lead to fraud.. FULL STOP!!!

83% of Americans agree on voter ID. 71% of Democrats agree on voter ID. Keep it basic: PHOTO ID to vote. Stop turning this into a Christmas list and attacking vote-by-mail. If GOP wants real reform over a show vote––put out a clean, standalone bill and I’m AYE.

@RealBarabbas They set an entire generation of youth back a year and stole their commoderity with others by isolation.🙄

That was Mike DeWine. Dr. Acton had no power to shut anything down, she made a recommendation that many 9ther Dr's made. The decision saved lots of lives, but because the GOP is now wholly anti-science they are willing to keep pushing anti-vaxx talking points for political gain.

@BeForRelle @JamesGPolkFan Figured the Browns went DEI and AB and the QB room says all that needs said, but DAMN🤦‍♂️ No wonder the organization sucks..common sense is totally gone!

@BeForRelle @JamesGPolkFan According to the job market, no school is placing anyone🙄

Guys Take the Democrat/Republican part out of it This guy sucks. He shouldn’t be Governor in Ohio and he is barely even showing you any effort in trying to be Governor here

@JamesGPolkFan @BeForRelle BW, JCU, Tiffin, Heidelberg, Ohio Northern, Ashland, Capitol, etc etc etc

@ScottMahring @BeForRelle Name one of those schools

@finkn23 At $50K a year or more🙄 Ya, these D2/D3 schools need reigned in

He is wrong. Not everyone wants to go to a big college. Many of the smaller schools in Ohio focus on things that big schools don’t. Having options is good. Entire towns economies are based on being a college town. It’s an absolutely ridiculous thing to say in this state
