Thanks to @alexalper @Reuters for including my thoughts in this story. If a CCP-controlled company can lobby Washington into siding with it against an American firm on a national security matter, that would be “the height of the swamp.”

Should The Republic Stand - Somewhere Else? My take on Daniel Chester French's monumental sculpture, its 1893 World's Columbian Exposition origins, and why it should be sprung from its traffic circle to find a more fitting home in the new Jackson Park. arcchicago.blogspot.com/2026/04/should…

🚨 After pager attack on Hezbollah, Hungary offered help to Iran -WaPo Orban is in bed with Russia, China and now Iran too!

It’s a really, really bad look to make these excuses. Hasan Piker is, among other things, an apologist for the Chinese Communist Party. This is one reason why I’ve been so vocal about Tucker and Fuentes on the Right. Once you let that inside the tent, the poison will spread.

🚨Iran demands fees for ships passing Hormuz during ceasefire🚨 This 'agreement' will confirm Iranian control of the Strait of Hormuz 1️⃣Iran has ZERO authority to monitor what sails into or out of the Persian Gulf 2️⃣The requirement to sail through Iranian waters - the Aya-TOLL-ah Booth - is without precedent. This is not Suez or Panama but an international watewaterways. 3️⃣Iran is threatening commercial shipping with destruction. The US would have a better standing if it has not followed a similar pattern against small boats in the Caribbean 4️⃣This is not COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE and SAFE OPENING as called for by the @POTUS 5️⃣It is not clear why @POTUS @secwar @SecRubio @CENTCOM @centcomcdr @US5thFleet @CMF_Bahrain would ever agree to this? ft.com/content/02aefa… via @ft

GEN Caine’s rollup of US strikes in Iran: 13,000 targets hit 80% of Iran’s air defense destroyed 1,500 air defense targets hit 450 ballistic missile storage facilities hit 800 drone facilities hit 2,000 C2 nodes hit 90% of the Iranian navy sunk 150 total ships sunk Every factory that produces Shahed drones was struck 80% of their missile production facilities are gone

It seems to me that giving China the most powerful hacking tool ever is NOT a good idea for U.S. national security. But what do I know, I’m just a crazy China hawk. Maybe they would use it exclusively to promote world peace if we asked them really nicely.

His mother held 52 American diplomats and citizens hostage in Iran for 444 days, from November 4, 1979, to January 20, 1981. He is now living comfortably in LA. Deport Eissa Hashemi.

Context needed: China transferred to Iran all the fixings for nukes and, apart from ballistic missiles, most conventional weapons in the Iranian arsenal. China is, from all indications, continuing to supply Iran during the course of this war.

Commies do love medals.

For the first time in decades, Chinese influence in Latin America is receding. The so called “Chile-China Express” submarine cable in Chile has been suspended. Peru chose American F16s instead of China's JF17. Colombia has announced tariffs on Chinese steel. Mexico is reviewing its economic agenda with Beijing. Honduras could soon even reactivate its relationship with Taiwan. thehill.com/opinion/intern…

Is striking Iranian 🇮🇷 power plants a war crime? youtube.com/shorts/O5qiIZb…

The Easter Bunny went from making sure Joe Biden didn’t talk to small children to being Donald Trump’s Secretary of War.

If you see anyone advancing this narrative, you can assess with high confidence that they have absolutely no clue what they’re talking about. The only difference between misinformation and disinformation is intent. You can assess that for yourself.

France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Austria: Not only bad "allies", but backstabbers actively sabotaging US war efforts.

America fails to rescue downed air man = WOW AMERICA IS FINISHED, IRAN WON, ITS OVER FOR THE US America succeeds in rescuing downed air man = LOL DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH THAT COST, AMERICA IS FINISHED, IRAN WON, ITS OVER FOR THE US Can't win against retarded people who just hate America
