@walterkirn In a related story, sales of in-home brass poles have seen a spike as they have replaces flowers as the #1 anniversary gift.

Just passed a shuttered "pole dance" gym. Everything's a phase, I guess.

@kramerposts Suite: Judy Blue Eyes, CS&N.
This song has everything. Complex songwriting, beautiful harmonies, tempo changes, Stills’ guitar licks, romance, heartache, and an unforgettable hook to finish it off.
English
Assume that I am a young man who has had an almost unthinkably sheltered life and never heard any music before. What single song would you want me to hear?

@GadSaad Ever since that church stunt he’s been off the rails.

Here goes Don Lemon again. That guy is nuts!

Joy Reid: "Whites can't invent anything" She says that in America, in English, on her phone, in a room with AC and light, while promoting their Substack All invented by white men

@ianbremmer The Strait of Hormuz is not about Iran. It is about China and Europe. Trump is using the Strait as post-war leverage.

the united states has the world's strongest military...and a glass jaw.
you don’t want american adversaries — or allies for that matter — feeling that way about the usa.

@walterkirn My two sons are two of my very best friends. It’s been a pleasure to raise them, travel with them, and roughhouse with them. They’re now starting their own families and the cycle begins again.
English
I used to play "Sergeant" with my kids (boy and girl) where they were deserting the base and I was pursuing them, shouting in a deep voice. Then I tried to haul them back. Many intense struggles ensued. But there was no game they demanded to play more often.

When I present the data on how vital father-son roughhousing is, dads often ask, “Until what age?” My response, “As long as you both can walk, that’s how important it is.” Josh Harris knows this! [P.S.—the teen years are particular crucial.]
English
@BuzzPatterson The stated goal was always to start with the most dangerous and widen out to include “those here illegally.” Whatever report NBC is citing must have ignored that part of the plan. And NBC is obviously ignoring that part of the plan.

He did not say he was going to “end Iranian civilization.” What he actually said was, “a whole civilization will end tonight.” He was talking about the 7th Century Theocracy, not Iranian civilization. He wants to free the Iranians from the repressive Theocracy that has imprisoned them for 47 years.
English
Now that Trump has postponed his threat to ‘end Iranian civilization,’ America has won twice. Here’s why. thefp.com/p/trumps-madma…

@NFL_DovKleiman Troy Aikman is free to support America any way he chooses.
Don’t let politics be your religion.
English
Terrible: The legendary Troy Aikman is under heavy criticism online for tweeting three American flag emojis from his account today amid America's war with Iran.
Aikman has donated over $40,000 to the Republican Party since 1999.
😳😳😳
English
Yes, pray for peace.
Also understand what has happened to the vibrant, innovative Persian culture under the oppressive 7th Century Theocracy. Iranians of all religions deserve to be free of religious and political persecution.
Just look at photos from pre-1979 Iran. Absolutely beautiful.

I’m guessing he and his intelligence operatives have specific targets in mind and I’m guessing you don’t know what they are. You’re just buying into - and spreading - the false “mad-man” narrative.
He’s working hand in hand with the Mossad - remember them, they’re the ones who infiltrated Hezbollah so deeply that they destroyed their leadership with beepers - the IDF, and assets none of us are even aware of.
I’m not saying, “sit back and relax.” We should all be worried. What’s going to happen is neither surgical nor optimal, but it is in no way “targeting civilians,” as their own IRGC assassins have done. (Civilians and civilian infrastructure are not the same thing)
What it will do is resolve a 47-year old problem and, ultimately, create the terms and landscape for a free Iran and a safer Middle East.
English
If Trump doesn't carry through on his stated genocidal vows -- and yet again finds an excuse to extend the deadline or just fails to do what he promised -- what happens to the credibility of American threats?
If Trump does it, it's historic evil. If he doesn't, it's pathetic.
English
What's the big deal when the leader of a nuclear-armed power -- currently blowing up bridges, schools and oil refineries in Iran -- explicitly threatens to impose civilizational annihilation at 8pm ET (prime-time) tonight?
Lighten up, guys. It's just Trump having his fun.
Clay Travis@ClayTravis
Donald Trump has made hyperbolic comments as part of negotiation tactics for a full decade, especially on social media, and yet people still run around like insane people reacting to his posts on here. I truly don’t get it.
English
Dem @GovofCO Jared Polis thinks his party should talk more about climate change and frame it as an economic issue.
"I don't think there's any part of America that's been spared the impact of climate change," he told our @zcolman on POLITICO Energy.

@ianbremmer @gzeromedia You’ve been following this conflict long enough to know those are not the only two options.
1. The head of the snake is just about severed.
2. News of Iran’s leverage has been greatly exaggerated.
English
if the us wants the strait reopened
there are only two options:
massive escalation
or accepting iran’s leverage.

@doubleedisco @Breaking911 No, I’m pretty sure it was Marvin Gaye who said that. (Heard it Through the Grapevine)

@Breaking911 My father worked in the highest level of military intelligence and one thing he always said “believe half of what you see and none of what you hear”

🚨 TREY YINGST REPORTS: “The CIA leaked through multiple sources that they were trying to move a valuable package out of the country through a maritime exfil, I'm told by a senior U.S. official.
This was meant to draw the Iranians away from the area where the U.S. crew member was located. The deception campaign worked.”

@overton_news @ScottJenningsKY Typical Dem Response: “we can do less and claim to have accomplished more.”
English
Scott Jennings SHATTERS the narrative of former Obama staffer Nayyera Haq after she tries to argue Iran is winning through mimetic warfare.
“Do you think the Iranians would rather have their ENTIRE navy back or their memes?”
HAQ: “The meme war and internet propaganda, which is something that the Iranians have been known for in influencing…”
“And so they had, for all of our talk on our side, of all the people killed in the regime, they have been pushing out through multiple channels around the world, images of the American army generals…”
Jennings lets her finish before landing the haymaker.
JENNINGS: “Do you think the Iranians would rather have their ENTIRE navy back or their memes?”
[Laughs in her face]
“I mean come on! We have destroyed 13,000 military targets, and they have memes?!”

Historic night. But tell me again why the last one is not a home run. Player left the field of play while in the act of catching the balll. Both the player and the ball landed in home run territory, establishing control outside the field of play.
If the player’s glove would have come off and landed over the wall it would have been a home run.
But somehow, because the player, in possession of the ball, landed in home run territory it’s not a home run.
One of those baseball rules that doesn’t make sense. (Same with catching a foul ball and tumbling into the stands) But an incredible human accomplishment nonetheless.

Three home run robberies
By the same player
In a game that ended 1-0 on a leadoff home run
UNREAL
BASEBALL IS THE BEST
We are so lucky to witness this!!

All THREE of Jo Adell's home run robberies from tonight ... Yes, you read that right 😮

Guys I'm beginning to think that the people who insisted that Biden had advanced dementia two years ago were lying to us.
