I wrote an appreciation of the Cato Institute's founding president, Ed Crane, who recently passed away: cato.org/blog/leader-wh…

More than half of Americans do not support U.S. military action in Iran, despite the Trump administration's efforts. @elizlanders sat down with @CurtMills, executive director of The American Conservative magazine, who has been outspoken against the U.S.'s involvement in Iran.

Pay no attention to the war—Zuck is bad!

Fox is burying the war story and that should tell us something important.

Laura Ingraham doing a hard-hitting segment on Islamist opinion during a massive US war in the Middle East. Fox has also spent hours on a poor US kid who died in Spain during spring break.

NOW - Netanyahu: "Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan. Because if you are strong enough, ruthless enough, powerful enough, evil will overcome good."

We Were Told This Wouldn’t Happen… @MichaelTLester

@DerekJGrossman Very cool. Japan should consider its options if it doesn’t like our boorish president. Embarrassing, honestly. You or I wouldn’t do that, of course. But welcome to the Trump administration. “The Americans should worry about the US-JPN alliance!” Ok bro.

And for his next act, Trump is destroying the US-Japan alliance. Watch Takaichi’s response. This wasn’t funny and will have lasting damage.

Cash Dubai crude (balance of the month) just broke above $170 per barrel. To my knowledge, no crude has ever commanded more than $170/bbl before.

Do we have lots of these on the shelf? Also, what’s this about an “emergency”?

Hegseth said this morning the Europeans should be saying thank you...

WHY DIDNT ANYONE WARN US ABOUT THIS

Higher gasoline and diesel prices are now costing the U.S. economy half a billion dollars more every single day (and rising) versus three weeks ago. A staggering rise and near record-setting.

Venezuela’s Delcy Rodríguez ousted the longtime defense minister and appointed the sanctioned military counterintelligence chief to succeed him, signaling continuity for the hard-line regime. on.wsj.com/3PghUkp

Hegseth on $200BB request: "That number could move, probably. It takes money to kill bad guys."

When I’m quoted, journalists always note that my org, @defpriorities favors restraint in US foreign policy. But they rarely note the biases of other think tanks, like the Atlantic Council, which favors liberal int’lism, or FDD, which supports Israel. Double standards stink.

Straight ahead from here: Dems counter and say, “okay, but we want $200 billion for Ukraine, too.”

We spend over $1 trillion a year on War, but less than a month into our newest one, we need another… *$200 BEELION*?
