Ron DeSwanson 🇺🇸🇮🇱

@SwansonNation Sir

Okay Arizona fans, I genuinely wish you the best on Saturday. It's not cool to antagonize a fanbase whose team is about to compete in a Final Four that was a home for Caleb Love and Steve Robinson and gave us Henri Veesaar.

@monsterhunter45 You... not bastard? x.com/SwansonNation/…

I may have been toying with your emotions yesterday, but I was not lying. 😀 Stay tuned.

Everyone, remember to tag @ComfortablySmug in your fantastic Artemis iPhone pictures.

They can leave.

@monsterhunter45 You bastard

I've been hinting to you guys that I've got something big in the works. And today I'm happy to announce that I have optioned the rights to Monster Hunter International. The plan is to do an MHI ANIME SERIES. This is going to be awesome. :D Stay tuned for details.

Gotta make Brad Stevens say no

We gain nothing by keeping people like this alive. Just put them down and be done with it.

ドイツを支持します。 日独同盟を結んで共産主義を打倒しましょう。

@pirooooon3 Yes, they’re just as retarded over here.

アメリカの方へ 左翼ってアメリカにもいるのでしょうか？ 同じように活動をしていますか？

Iran was trying to use the North Korean model to get a nuke: create sufficient conventional deterrence so you won’t be challenged in acquiring one (it’s called the Seoul Hostage Problem). This has been explained over and over since day one. Everyone claiming shifting goalposts or no imminent threat has been lying. The reason North Korea was allowed to get nukes is because Seoul (and its 10 million inhabitants) is within artillery and rocket range of North Korea. During the 1994 nuclear crisis, the Clinton administration seriously considered airstrikes on North Korea’s Yongbyon reactor but backed off precisely because of the artillery threat to Seoul. Iran was trying to accomplish the same by stockpiling missiles and drones which would have had the same deterrent effect. The proof is what Iran has been doing in the past month: attacking all its neighbors in order to pressure the US to stop attacking it Beyond this, they were building medium-range ballistic missiles that could reach Paris and London, meaning all of Europe could be held hostage as they built a nuclear bomb. The reason Iran has not built a nuclear weapon until now is not because it couldn’t, but because it knew it would be attacked and denied this capability. So by allowing them to continue developing this conventional deterrence, you would be allowing Iran to get a nuclear weapon. And unlike North Korea, Iran is led by an eschatological death cult Reagan saw nuclear mutually assured destruction (MAD) as both morally bankrupt (because of the innocent-body-count problem) and dangerously fragile because it assumed flawless rationality between adversaries…this means it only takes one irrational actor to destroy the world. Working backwards from the conclusion that Iran’s Islamist regime must never have a nuclear weapon, it was necessary for the US to attack Iran to deny it the conventional capacity to hold the entire eastern hemisphere hostage. Every European leader knows this and behind the scenes praises the US for this action. But they are cowards, held hostage by their own internal Muslim populations, and so adopt these ridiculous public positions. This was never about Israel. And if your argument is that Iran should be allowed to get a nuclear weapon then you are a fool and a traitor to western civilization…you’re a useful idiot

@LilaGraceRose Sorry Lila.

I wanted to share an update, because some of you have been asking. Two weeks ago, Joe and I found out we were pregnant. We were thrilled and so grateful for the generosity of God. A week ago, the day of our Young Leaders Summit, I started having miscarriage symptoms and had to leave the event early. I was really touched when many of you reached out and shared you were praying for me and baby. We did lose our little baby. Along with the sadness, we feel comforted and at peace knowing he is in Heaven. We are so grateful to have had him with us for a short time and that we will be reunited one day. God’s love and will are perfect, and mysterious at times. I know He has a plan and we trust in Him. Thank you for the prayers 🙏

@andrewzimmern Raleigh-Durham is not a city. Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) has that name because it's between the two cities (it is actually in Morrisville, NC).

Raleigh-Durham might be the most underrated food city on the East Coast right now. And if you’ve been paying attention, you know that’s saying something. This is where serious chefs are doing thoughtful, ingredient-driven work without the noise. Where global flavors and Southern roots actually mean something on the plate. Where you can eat incredibly well without fighting for a reservation three weeks out. Don’t wait for the headlines to catch up. Get there now. What do you think is the most underrated food city on the East Coast?

Obligatory meat post to please our Japanese brethren.

どうやったらアメリカのみなさんにツイート見てもらえるのかな？ アメリカのみなさーん、日本のケルベロス届いていますか〜？ #samoyed

Israel should have made this change decades ago. Like after the 2nd intifada.

@Idontcurog @obegraysr @WilliamMcCall_ Because it's UNC.

@SwansonNation @obegraysr @WilliamMcCall_ Tommy Lloyd wanted to stay at Gonzaga n take over for Few… but he said there is only 1 job he’d leave Gonzaga Asst Coach for it was Arizona. Thats it.. so why would he leave there for UNC.(100x more pressure and 0 links to them for backing in board room n shit.)

UNC hires Billy Donovan… your reaction is what ?

@thefactualprep It was the best of times It was the worst of times

on one hand, duke loses, but on the other, alas, unfortunately, uconn wins

@varadmehta We’ve reached the point where millennials who grew up reading the books now have children old enough to start experiencing the story. I just read the first 2 books to my 7yo daughter this year. Which is why it’s a great time for the HBO long form reboot.

Decent chance that if her sales continue at this rate, JKR dethrones Agatha Christie as the world's bestselling author. Would still take another decade or two. But that it's even possible would've been unimaginable when the series wrapped two decades (already?!) ago.
