The President needs to sit atop the negotiations with confidence in the blockade and a possible return to Project Freedom, seeing the forest for the trees. We can’t move from nuclear extortion to Hormuz extortion. And we won’t get all the uranium if we relieve pressure upfront.

The 2026 Democrat Party is a place where people named Medhi, Hasan, and Saikat lecture an American Jew named Jake about why he needs to support a guy with a Nazi tattoo

It’s been obvious Cenk is mentally ill for a long time. You can go back a decade and watch him screaming, out of breath, on air like a deranged lunatic. Of course, being an Islamist who named his media company after genocidal Turks was probably the biggest tip-off.

A man with an SS Totenkopf tattoo on his chest and a Reddit archive endorsing political violence, mocking sexual assault victims, and writing “all cops are bastards” wants to be Maine’s next United States Senator. He brands himself “no more pointless wars” and then commits to indefinite military aid to Ukraine ($175 billion and counting), cuts off the only Jewish democracy in the Middle East, opposes any action against Iran, and stays silent on Sudan, Yemen, Syria, Xinjiang, Tigray, and the Taliban’s gender apartheid. He reserves the word “genocide,” the “moral test of our time” framing, and a named lobby boycott (AIPAC) for the one conflict involving the Jewish state, while half a dozen ongoing conflicts with higher body counts get zero attention. His centerpiece policy is a 5% annual tax on net worth above $1 billion, which he claims raises “over $4 trillion. It’s unconstitutional. Every single developed country that has tried this failed. He proposes a “Cost-of-Living Exemption” zeroing out federal income tax for working- and middle-class Americans but the bottom 50% of earners already pay 2.3% of federal income tax. The top 1% pays 46%. Which means he can’t do basic math and his plans include taxing the middle class. Substantially. The American Hospital Association estimates Medicare for all would push roughly half of US hospitals into operating losses. Rural Maine hospitals Calais, Millinocket, Houlton, Machias already run on private insurance cross-subsidies would all close down. Platner, who claims to represent rural Maine, is endorsing the policy most certain to shutter rural Maine’s healthcare infrastructure. A $15 minimum wage would kill 1.4 million jobs concentrated on the least-skilled. Institutional investors own 0.5% of US single-family stock and barely register in Maine. Maine prices rose 78% because of pandemic in-migration and local zoning the kind of board Platner himself chairs in Sullivan. Quebec’s universal daycare produced negative developmental outcomes. Tennessee’s universal pre-K put kids behind by sixth grade. Postal banking failed once already (1911–1966). Term limits increase lobbyist power. Maine has one billionaire and Platner wants to make sure you know that one billionaire is the reason everyone in Maine is suffering. 🤯🤯

Mojtaba Khamenei statement: Message from the Leader of the Islamic Revolution on the occasion of the Hajj The shaky Zionist regime and the cancerous tumor of Israel are also approaching the final stages of their ill-fated life, and by the grace of God and in accordance with the decisive and unwavering determination of the past year, the great leader, the martyr, Quds Allah, the Most Merciful, will not see the day twenty-five years after that date, God willing. For this reason, this year, the issue of disavowal from polytheists is doubly important, and the depth and scope of disavowal from America and the Zionist regime goes beyond the ritual of disavowal during the Hajj season and time. In different parts of Iran and the world, and after these blessed days, death to America and death to Israel will be the common slogan of the Islamic nation and the oppressed of the world, especially the youth. The future belongs to the Islamic nation and the new Islamic civilization, and each of us can play a role in realizing this future and getting closer to it, according to our efforts, capacity, and responsibility. Iranian pilgrims and pilgrims in this year's Hajj have an effective and prominent role in telling the story of the victory of the Third Imposed War to their other Muslim brothers and sisters and giving them hope for a bright future. I ask all dear pilgrims to pray for the hastening of the savior of humanity, may God hasten his return, and to pray for the unity of the Islamic nation, the liberation of Palestine and Al-Aqsa Mosque, the removal of the great difficulties of Muslims, and the achievement of final victory against global arrogance, and to include me in your prayers. O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, and cast Your loving-kindness and mercy upon the pilgrims and the entire Muslim community, grant them the success of an accepted Hajj, enlighten their hearts with the lights of knowledge and insight, and strengthen their resolve and determination.
