Starship is the most powerful moving object ever made

What are the odds those tiki torch carrying neo-Nazis from Charlottesville would only rally once? Feels like it was an American intel op against Trump. That’s my working assumption.

I don’t think most Americans have any real sense of just how sophisticated and massive this whole operation against the Islamic regime has been. Even a lot of Trump supporters, probably picture it as some straightforward military thing. But for those of us who have lived under this system, it’s on another level entirely. However, we are understandably exhausted and hyper-focused, worrying about basic safety that it’s hard for us to step back and appreciate the bigger picture. We don’t talk much, but it doesn’t mean we don’t see it. We Iranians know war. My mother’s generation lived for 8 horrific years in the shadow of Saddam, a madman even crazier and more brutal than this regime in many ways. They endured constant bombings, cities turned to rubble, chemical attacks, families ripped apart, and massive displacement. For my generation, those years left childhood nightmares that never fully went away. We know amputated fathers, martyred neighbors, streets full of mourning, endless death, and helplessness. We know what real war is. This operation was nothing like that. Unlike the Iran-Iraq war, where civilians were deliberately targeted to create maximum death, suffering, and destruction, this was meticulously designed to separate the regime and its military machine from the Iranian people. It was remarkably successful in that regard. The vast majority of the hardship ordinary Iranians faced didn’t come from the strikes themselves. It came from the regime’s own incompetence, sabotage, and desperation. They cut the internet for days to control the narrative abroad, wrecked businesses and the economy with their chaotic responses, and kept their own people in the dark. That part was all them. There is another thing, we Iranians know this regime like the back of our hand. It’s not some abstract evil. It’s like stage-four cancer: incompetent at actually running a country, ugly and corrupt to its core, yet incredibly strong in spreading fear, hatred, and pulling out the worst in human nature. Removing something this entrenched, in a country as vast and regionally complicated as Iran, required an intelligence and planning effort that is honestly mind-blowing. What blows my mind is the Israeli intelligence work. We’re not talking just names and addresses. They’ve mapped behaviors, personalities, decision-making patterns, the whole human side of that rotten system. It’s like they know it inside out. The planning was deeply coordinated with US, with Israel leading on the technical, intelligence, and precision execution level, while the U.S. directed the overall strategy and brought the power and coordination to make it happen. The precision was unreal: cutting-edge, top-notch technology, the best specialists in the world, and targeting that actually feels more like a surgical rescue mission than old-school war. From where I sit, Trump directed the overall strategy and brought the raw power: choking off the regime’s money, isolating it internationally, cutting the lifelines from Europe and some Arab states. That created the conditions for this to actually land. On the psychological side and negotiations, it feels like Trump played the big-picture game, timing the pressure, the deterrence, and the right mix of fear and openings to get maximum results with as little unnecessary cost as possible. I really hope Americans come to recognize the courage, professionalism, and skill of their military and the patriots in the administration in this. Right now, it feels like we’re nowhere close to giving them the credit this level of work has earned. For us Iranians who have suffered so long, this wasn’t about destruction. It was about finally creating a chance for something better. We will be forever grateful. #ThankYouTrump‌ #miga

@BestNashTransit @FOXNashville O'well, not that it matters, You do have my support on this matter.

@FOXNashville Let's just say I don't need anyone's "support" in this matter.

POLL: Do you support allowing deadly force to defend property in Tennessee?

@SamaHoole A great song about butter. x.com/SoveyX/status/…

A comprehensive troubleshooting guide for new carnivores, compiled over five years of answering the same questions: Tired in the afternoon? Add more butter. Hungry between meals? Add more butter. Headache in the first week? Add more butter. Also salt. But mostly butter. Constipated? Add more butter. Loose stools? Add more butter. Craving carbs? Add more butter. Cold hands and feet? Add more butter. Dry skin? Add more butter. On the steak, not the skin. Poor sleep? Add more butter. Bad mood? Add more butter. Gym performance dropping? Add more butter. Gym performance fine but you just want it to be better? Add more butter. Wife complaining about the butter? More butter. Different problem, same answer. Doctor concerned about your LDL? The doctor is not the patient. Add more butter. Keto flu? Butter. Plateau on the scales? Butter. Hair feeling dry? You're not eating enough fat. Add butter. Feeling bored of the food? The food is not the problem. The amount of butter on the food is the problem. Friend telling you this can't be healthy? Offer them some butter. Watch their face. Thinking about quitting because it's not working? You are almost certainly eating lean meat with insufficient butter. Add butter. Report back in a week. Already added butter and still have the problem? Add more butter. There is no problem in the first thirty days of carnivore that cannot be solved, improved, or entirely dissolved by the addition of more butter. I am aware this sounds like a joke. It is not. It is the single most common mistake new carnivores make, and the single most effective intervention anyone has ever suggested on this account. The fat is the mechanism. The butter is the fat in its most accessible, most concentrated, most delicious form. Add more butter. That's the tweet. That's the whole guide. Five years of experience compressed into two words. Save it.

@SaltyGoat17 Blew his F'ing brains out and the criminal was still holding the knife. Now that is what I call GUN CONTROL.

Don’t bring a knife to a gun fight. Loser got what he deserved!!

@FOXNashville If they don't have a dollar menu like McDonalds, then I doubt if I can afford it.

A new seafood and steakhouse just opened its doors in Nashville Yards 🤩 🦞 Ocean Prime made its Tennessee on Tuesday. The nationally acclaimed chain has more than 20 locations across the country, including in big cities New York, Chicago and Denver. bit.ly/4tNoFd3

@ExxAlerts The laws protecting these bicyclist are out of control. The bicyclist should ride single file with enough space between riders that a vehicle can pass one at a time and safely pull between the bicyclist for oncoming cars. I say arrest the bicyclist.

ALERT: 72-year-old man arrested for hitting a group of cyclists after honking and heckling them for taking over the road in Georgia. Jerry Ross was driving when he pulled up behind a group of 10 cyclists in the road. He began honking and heckling the cyclists, and one of them started filming. Ross then sped around them while laying on the horn and hit 2 of the cyclists, causing minor injuries, before driving away. Ross, when confronted by police about the incident, blamed the cyclists for taking up the road and causing the collision. He was arrested and is charged with two counts of aggravated assault, hit and run, and reckless driving.

Spot on 😆😆

@TaraBull I believe I would clean the inside of that microwave before I put my food inside of there.

@thedebralea @tracegallagher @foxnewsnight I totally agree. I am so impressed with the way that Trace Gallagher anchors the FOX News @ Night. He is very bright, intelligent, and courteous to the people on his show. You can see the people who is on his show actually enjoy being there.

The best in the business! ♠️ @tracegallagher @foxnewsnight

@PhilNvestigates says Unite the Right organizer Richard Spencer. So in other words, Richard Spencer must be a liberal.

“Conservatives are dumb, and they come to the wrong conclusion and they come to a very self-serving conclusion," says Unite the Right organizer Richard Spencer. (Link below.)

Former Delta Force commander Pete Blaber tells Americans the truth about the SMO. 'I have some contacts – one in the State Department, two in the intelligence community, and another friend who works there as a long-term contractor. We met in Los Angeles, and they told me everything, and I thought, "Damn." They asked, "Can you get this out?" And I said, "Yes, I feel it's my duty to voice it." Currently, according to their data, approximately 1.25 million Ukrainian soldiers have died. They've been losing about a thousand people a day, every day through 2025. Those are incredible numbers.' 'The main question from the start should be: why is there no coverage of the war in Ukraine? And I'll tell you why there isn't. Because if this is widely reported, the [Western] propaganda stories that are being spread will be exposed. In fact, in every city the Russians capture, they are greeted as liberators. People come out and celebrate when Russian troops arrive, telling stories of the harsh conditions they lived in due to the presence of the Ukrainian army in their city.

@ChrisCuomo Fredo

Why are these maga people so determined to pretend that we don't have white nationalist hate groups in this country?

@johnkonrad "Because for the past two decades the NYTimes has run the same story on loop: the military is the reason for America’s skyrocketing national debt." I am old enough to remember when the NYTimes ran the same story on loop when Ronald Reagan was President.

Just as I predicted yesterday…. MSM will falsely claim the Secretary of the Navy was fired because of Battleships. And the NYTimes is actually worse than I thought. Let me explain…. The mainstream media will make this about the ships because the defense “experts” never want more hulls. They want money flowing into consulting fees, AI “solutions,” and think tank white papers. Steel produces nothing for the Beltway class. A flight deck you can launch F-35s off of does not generate PowerPoints. But the NYTimes is running an even more sinister play. Throughout the Biden administration, and later during DOGE’s audit work, I translated every major spending bill into a unit every American can actually visualize: one nuclear aircraft carrier. Nuclear supercarrier cost: $15 billion. Biden’s BEAD rural broadband program, which connected zero homes to the internet: $42.5 billion, or roughly three carriers. Pete Buttigieg’s infrastructure package: $1.1 trillion, or seventy three carriers. Total DOGE savings to date: $215 billion, or fourteen carriers. Known Somali-linked fraud in Minnesota, per federal prosecutors: $18 billion, or one carrier plus an Arleigh Burke destroyer. Why do I keep doing this? Because for the past two decades the NYTimes has run the same story on loop: the military is the reason for America’s skyrocketing national debt. That is a psyop. It conditions Americans to believe that steel and sailors, not social programs and grift, are what is bankrupting the country. Human beings are not wired to understand $15 billion. The mind goes blank at that scale. But every American, left or right, understands the sheer weight and menace of a nuclear aircraft carrier. It is the most visible, most photogenic instrument of state power on earth. So the NYTimes runs the obvious play. Paint the carrier as expensive. Pile on delays and cost overruns. Quote an anonymous Pentagon source worrying about bloat. Then anchor the defense budget to “discretionary spending,” a small slice of the real pie, and express it as a percentage of that smaller number. The Pentagon instantly looks like the whale in the room. But Medicare alone, roughly $1 trillion in 2025, already eclipses the entire defense budget. Add Medicaid and ACA subsidies and federal health spending hits $1.8 trillion, more than double defense. None of those programs are labeled “discretionary,” so by NYTimes accounting, they “don’t count.” This is a magic act. The NYTimes holds a shiny capital ship up in one hand to keep your eyes off the social programs bankrupting the country in the other. Once you see the trick, you cannot unsee it. Every time the NYTimes runs a carrier or battleship exposé, ask one question: what is on the page they did not write? Nine times out of ten, the answer is sitting just outside the “discretionary” column, quietly metastasizing, while a Ford class carrier gets blamed for the deficit. America is not going broke building warships. Warships are one time expenses that last decades and are a tiny fraction of the total annual budget. America is going broke pretending the ledgers that matter do not exist, while a national newspaper gets paid to keep the audience looking the other way. That’s why they hate battleships. That’s why they tell you they are ridiculous and antiquated warships that are a waste of money. To make you think THIS is the reason why the nation is $39T in debt. And the best part? Their psyop works on both sides of the aisle… on liberals who hate the military and conservatives who hate federal spending. Battleships are not a waste of money. All the many fraudulent programs that cost more annually than a single carrier are.

@parawing742 @p_j_jenkins @parawing742 you are just another typical closed minded meanspirited hateful democrat who can stand having an open and honest debate with someone who disagrees with your childish foolish political views.

@parawing742 @p_j_jenkins No I am not. It is wrong. Democrats shouldn't have used it when they controlled our state with an IRON fist. I don't live in Davidson county now. I did not want to be put in with the undesirables of Davidson county.

Matt is only in Congress because Tennessee was gerrymandered to steal representation from a third of voting Tennesseans that vote Democratic.
