THE DOMINO EFFECT NOBODY IS EXPLAINING TO YOU Iran is not just a country at war. It's a funding machine. Since 1979, the Islamic regime has been the single biggest financier of terrorism in the Middle East. Here is what collapses the moment that regime falls: DOMINO 1: Hezbollah (Lebanon) Iran sends them $700M to $1B+ per year. That is their entire war budget. No Iran = no Hezbollah. DOMINO 2: Hamas (Gaza) 93% of Hamas funding comes from Iran. $100-350M per year in cash. No Iran = Hamas has no money to fight. DOMINO 3: Houthis (Yemen) $100-200M per year in direct transfers. Plus weapons. Plus training. Plus IRGC commanders on the ground. No Iran = Houthis go back to being a tribal militia with AKs. DOMINO 4: Iraqi Militias Kata'ib Hezbollah. Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq. Badr Organization. All funded, armed, and directed by Iran's IRGC. No Iran = they lose their patron. Fast. DOMINO 5: Syrian Militias Iran spent $16 BILLION propping up Assad. The entire Syrian proxy network runs on Iranian money. No Iran = no money, no mission. People keep asking why this operation matters. This is why. One source. Five networks. Billions in annual terror funding. Pull the source. The whole network dies.

So let me get this straight ... Joe Kent suddenly quits and tries to damage Trump with a laughable letter claiming Iran is not a threat, although, there's a gazillion tweets, sworn testimony, and interviews where he talks about how much of a threat Iran is. Then, magically, 5 seconds later, he's booked on every doomer grifter show, and high dollar grifter event in the USA this week where they'll all in unison scream for hours about how much they hate the Jooooooooooooooos and say "zionists" a thousand times per hour, and then say $7,000 a thousand times more like broken records. Yeah - they were all in on this to try to damage Trump. Of course, it won't work, and anyone with half a brain can see this setup a mile away. Not to mention, almost everyone has severe doomer fatigue. It's boring at this point; a cringe, never-ending, shouting match, the sky is falling, pessimistic circle jerk. Did I leave anything out?

I’ve been dealing with skin cancer, off and on, since coming home from Iraq in 2010. Not the fairly safe kind, but the metastasizing kind. I go tomorrow morning to have 2 more lumps removed. I don’t talk about it much, because people have it way worse than I do. I am truly blessed. I’m not in fear for my life, because I’ve been good at staying on top of it, but it has been a thorn in my side for 16 years. I shouldn’t let it, but it completely destroys my self confidence. In public, I think it’s all people can see when they look at me. Especially since I’ve sobered up, I want to start actually living my life again, instead of just surviving it. There’s even a girl I want to ask out. I always pray that the next time is the last time I have to see the dermatologist. It may seem trivial to you, but it’s a big deal to me. So, again, I pray that tomorrow is the last time.
