@DCMODERATE @Chris2dogs @pesach_lattin @VivekGRamaswamy @Jed_Rubenfeld The Russia probe resulted in 34 convictions, including members of Trump’s campaign staff. By the way, the sole reason the Mueller probe was initiated (by Trump’s own DOJ) was because he fired the head of an agency (FBI) that was investigating him at the time.

@atrupar @CathyJoeGPT And yet, Trump publicly claimed that Iran was “begging for a deal,” and claimed that ‘they called us, we didn’t call them.” This administration is totally bonkers

Karoline Leavitt: "Some of the previous leaders are now no longer on planet Earth because they lied to the United States and they strung us along in negotiations, and that was unacceptable to the president, which is why many of the previous leaders were killed"

@theblockspot Take a look at UConn’s two recent titles; In 2023, their highest opponent was a 3-seed and their two opponents in the Final Four were both 5 seeds. Next year, their path was a 16 seed, a 9, a 5, a 3, and then a 4 in the Final Four before finally playing a 1 seed in the title game

Illinois… Path to the Final Four: • 14-seed Penn • 11-seed VCU • 2-seed Houston • 9-seed Iowa 1 of the easiest paths we have ever seen.

@CBKReport When you look at the numbers of the seeds they beat, it isn’t too impressive. One year, the highest seed they beat was a 3; their Final Four opponents were two 5-seeds. The next year, they beat a 16, a 9, a 5, a 3 and a 4 to get to the title game (where they finally met a 1 seed)

Dan Hurley in March Madness since 2023: • 2 Titles 🏆 • 16-1 Record ✅ • 16-1 Against The Spread 🔥 (The 1 loss was against Florida who eventually won the National Title) We are watching one of the greatest coaching runs ever right now.

@ChrisVannini @TheAthletic Unfortunately, they have only made four Sweet Sixteens in the last 15 years. That 15-year period also includes an eight-year stretch where the Huskies didn’t even make the tourney four of those years, along with two 1st-round losses and one second-round loss (and the Covid year).

UConn has won 17 straight games in the Sweet 16 or later, a truly insane stat. Last loss was the 2009 Final Four. Since then, Huskies have four national titles, five first-weekend exits and seven missed tournaments. A real land of contrasts.

@EDSecMcMahon @HarmeetKDhillon If our current administration has publicly stated that it aims to abolish the Department of Education, they why are we paying the salary of a Secretary for this Department? I thought you all were looking to eliminate wasteful spending in the government?

Excited to be at Hamtramck Academy today, touring the classrooms!

@JamesSantory @marklevinshow Now compare those at the top of U.S. capitalistic society to those at the bottom.

@marklevinshow He is the biggest hypocrite. He pushes a communist agenda yet owns three homes. That's the way it is with communism, the few people at the top are extremely rich and nobody else is.

Typical Commie

@GuntherEagleman @C_3C_3 @CarlKolchak321 You’ve heard of modern technologies like e-mails, cell phones and the like? You do realize that a person can “run something” without physically being on site?

@C_3C_3 @CarlKolchak321 He ran the Biden presidency

Did you know? Barack Hussein Obama was the first President in 100 years to stay in Washington, DC after his term was up. Why do you think that was?

@C_3C_3 So, you’re suggesting that it was the norm a century ago. … Maybe the question of “why did you leave the DC area after the presidency” should be the proper query directed to other recent presidents.

A French Senator declares: ​"A handful of drug addicts and alcoholics have seized power in America, and whenever something regarding the Epstein case is published, they bomb a corner of the world!"

@Northernpundit1 @CauseEffectPost @TVNewsNow @brithume No, because Trump claimed that “Iran was begging for a deal.”

@CauseEffectPost @TVNewsNow @brithume How do you know that? B/C the manky goat fuckers who murdered 40,000 innocent protestors a few months ago told ya? And of course your TDS destroyed any capacity to make honest discernments Shocking level of stupidity

🚨 Fox’s Brit Hume: “I do not detect a sign President Trump wants to cut off this conflict any time immediately, short of him getting the terms he has dictated or offered to the Iranians, which are basically everything we could ever want.”

@JonathanTurley I thought that any nation that is attacked has “the right to defend itself.”

Iranian Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi just made the case for the war on Iran on state television, telling Americans "parks, recreational areas and tourist destinations anywhere in the world will no longer be safe for you." foxnews.com/us/state-depar…

@TwitAI_censor @Microinteracti1 @jtab1641 So what? Many countries have nuclear bombs and various missiles

@Microinteracti1 @jtab1641 Iran had weapons grade uranium for 10 nuclear bombs Iran has missiles that the west did not know about, that fly 3000 km

The head of Europe’s central bank just said financial markets don’t understand what they’re in for. This is Christine Lagarde saying the damage is already done. Most people have absolutely no idea. Here is what she actually said. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz. That chokepoint carries 20% of the world’s oil and gas. Markets shrugged. Investors assumed it would blow over. Lagarde told The Economist that technical experts are not talking about months for recovery. They are talking about years. Helium travels through the Strait of Hormuz. Helium is not a balloon gas. It is the invisible ingredient inside every advanced microchip on earth. Qatar supplies 35% of the world’s commercial helium. Qatar’s facilities have gone dark. Spot prices have surged past $450 per thousand cubic feet. Most chip fabricators carry less than three months of inventory. The world is building AI data centers at record speed. The raw material that makes the chips possible is now scarce. Meanwhile Brent crude has hit $99. Earlier spikes passed $120. US gasoline is up 30%. Iraq cut 1.5 million barrels a day. Saudi Arabia paused its largest refinery. Europe is heading into this with gas storage at 30% capacity. And the ECB is not cutting rates to soften the blow. It is considering hiking them to fight inflation. Slow economy. Rising prices. Tighter money. All at once. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

@highbrow_nobrow @Acyn There are no “bills.”

Trump threatens NATO: “One of the heads of the countries said ‘does that mean if we don’t pay the bills, you won’t protect us?’ I said that’s exactly what that means.” @Acyn (February 14, 2024)

@Microinteracti1 @atrupar Soon? He is

@atrupar He will soon be a lame duck, and NATO will continue to exist with or without the US.

Trump: “NATO NATIONS HAVE DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO HELP WITH THE LUNATIC NATION, NOW MILITARILY DECIMATED, OF IRAN. THE U.S.A. NEEDS NOTHING FROM NATO, BUT ‘NEVER FORGET’ THIS VERY IMPORTANT POINT IN TIME! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

@atrupar @MalcolmNance So, he boasts that “we totally decimated Iran,” but his issue is that “no one helped us,” even though “we need nothing from NATO.” … Dude is nuts.

@atrupar So, he says they are “begging to make a deal.” But then he says “they better get serious.” Which is it?

Trump: "The Iranian negotiators are very different and 'strange.' They are 'begging' us to make a deal, which they should be doing since they have been militarily obliterated, with zero chance of a comeback, and yet they publicly state that they are only 'looking at our proposal.' WRONG!!! They better get serious soon, before it is too late, because once that happens, there is NO TURNING BACK, and it won’t be pretty! President DJT"

@DanWetzel @espn One can argue that a major injury factored into UNC being out

Kansas, Kentucky and UNC are all out of the NCAA early (again). In an era when everyone can flash green, how much does blue blood still matter? Column for @espn espn.com/mens-college-b…

@SenRickScott Because you don’t

🚨 A sitting U.S. Senator just ADMITTED that the people most important to Democrats are illegal aliens. Why the hell is it so hard for Democrats in Washington to understand that we work for the AMERICAN PEOPLE?!

@fakedivergents @AAGDhillon @CivilRights @Scotus @AndrewKolvet Or it seems that they want to get the count right.

@AAGDhillon @CivilRights @Scotus @AndrewKolvet The American people want certainty. When they drag out counting the ballots, it seems as if they are trying to manipulate the outcome.

16 states allow ballots to be counted days—or even weeks—after Election Day. Such extensions raise serious questions regarding the meaning of Election Day. @CivilRights is reviewing these practices and looks forward to @SCOTUS’s decision!

@PSouls2 @rashkis @AAGDhillon @CivilRights @Scotus @AndrewKolvet Funny; but not true. The first century required days to count. And as late as 2000, the winner wasn’t known until December,

@rashkis @AAGDhillon @CivilRights @Scotus @AndrewKolvet The US was able to count all votes in one night until the 2020 election.
