I am willing to offer the Lindsey Graham apologists a deal. We will be sad about him dying comfortably at home, when you are sad about Gazans dying in agony and misery. Deal?

Don't listen to Mike Braun regarding the #Bears. He has no clue. He's also not a fan of interracial marriage. I have found my Norwegian counterpart, we have FFF today and the top ten embarrassing sports moments, in honor of the USMNT. DBU on @312SportsChi. Links below.

@shark0423 @dan_bernstein @312SportsChi You retweeted on July 2nd, 2022. Dan would never criticize the Islamic Regime because it's not part of his progressive agenda. I'm going to guess you and I agree on more stuff than you and Dan do. Dan hates USA. He loves Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib and AOC. Trump broke his brain.

Trump intervenes on behalf of a birthright US citizen, and the irony is inescapable. MLB admits the ball is messed up again, John Smoltz almost made a cogent point, #Bulls summer team starts practice and more on today's DBU. @312SportsChi. Links in replies.

@academic_la Amazing how you can speak freely against your government without anything bad happening to you in Israel. What is that called again? Oh yeah…free speech. Can you say the same about Gaza? What do they do to Palestinians who speak publicly against Hamas? Hamas is the problem.

@Candley801 How about a repost of the people who have been killed in in 2024, 2025 and 2026? Yes. There was a bad day for Israel in 2023.

The fighting around Hormuz looks like escalation toward war. It is the opposite. This is coercive bargaining inside an active negotiation, not an attempt to end one: 1) Both sides signed an MOU on June 17 and never stopped talking. The strikes started June 28, with Doha talks possibly Tuesday. You do not schedule a summit mid-war. You schedule it mid-haggle. Violence here is a tool of the talks, not a rejection of them. 2) This is Schelling 101. Force is not just about taking territory. It is a bargaining chip used to communicate resolve and shift the terms. Iran attacks a ship on the Omani route to make a point about who administers the strait. The US pounds coastal sites to answer. Each blow is a message. 3) The fight is about the text, not the territory. The MOU says Iran arranges "safe passage" and determines "administration" of the strait. Araghchi reads that as sole Iranian authority. Washington reads it as unimpeded international navigation. 4) Watch the tit-for-tat structure. Iran hits two vessels. The US hits comms and missile sites. Iran hits Kuwait and Bahrain. This is controlled reciprocity, the signature of a costly-signaling game where each side calibrates to demonstrate resolve without crossing into general war. 5) Last week in Switzerland both sides agreed to a deconfliction channel to avoid Hormuz attacks. You build off-ramps when you intend to keep driving. The escalation and the safety valve were negotiated in the same room. 6) Even Trump's "Iran will no longer exist" post is a bargaining move, not a war plan. It raises the perceived cost of Iranian intransigence to strengthen the US position in Doha. Brinkmanship works by making the threat credible, not by executing it. Each side is testing the other's pain threshold to learn the true bargaining range. The attacks are not the war returning. They are the negotiation continuing by other means. No need to panic each time this happens.

@312SportsChi @dan_bernstein Are you going to talk about the Iranian and Egyptian rejection of the Pride Match? I thought you care about progressive values? Or does that just stop when it doesn't fit into your woke checkbox? Pretty clear radical Islam is acceptable nowadays with leftists.

Will there be a Q&A at Kevin Warren’s event in Lake Forest next month? @dan_bernstein has a lot of questions. 😂

This weekend, the Cubs look to avenge getting embarrassed at Wrigley Field last month against Milwaukee. "There has to be a little bit of, I don't know, some pride here by this team going to Milwaukee remembering they got swept at home by this team." @cody__cubs and @dan_bernstein recap the season series sweep of the Mets and preview the Brewers series on today's Off The Ivy

Plenty of seats available to hear Kevin Warren speak publicly on 7/16. For just $49, you might get the chance to ask him what the hell he's been doing. And there are 3 #Bears in the CBS Sports Top 100 NFL players. Forward Progress on @312SportsChi. Links in replies.

@dan_bernstein @312SportsChi Nothing to say on the Iran and Egypt rejection of Pride at the World Cup? This is something that breaks your leftist brain, huh? Radical Islam or LGBT? Maybe call Mamdani or Ilhan Omar to figure out this calculation. bbc.com/sport/football…

@312SportsChi Selective outrage from @dan_bernstein. I wonder why he hasn’t written or spoken about this? Champions of LGBT causes Dan Bernstein would never condemn a Muslim country because it’s not on the matrix of woke ideology and victimhood. espn.com/soccer/story/_…

“They stripped me of all my clothes… tied me up while I was completely naked. It was sexual violence..." When asked if more assaults took place, he struggled to speak: “It’s hard for me to talk about it… It was the most horrific thing. I came back from meeting the devil.” Even through unbearable pain, former hostage Rom Broslavsky chose to speak - to tell the world what Hamas did. Hamas must go. The world must not look away. 📸Hazinor, Channel 13
