@ZaidJilani The most critical commodity is authenticity and charisma. That is what's needed to hold power for 8 years and have half a chance to fix stuff

There are more people in the centre than the left or right. Time for them to stop being bullied.

Democrats weakest 2028 candidates:
Harris: Repeated loser, just bad at politics
Newsom: Carries all the California baggage
AOC: Too many extreme views from prison abolition to quasi open borders

This was a Russian attack on Kyiv, a metropolis of 3 million people, last night.
Don't just watch, act! Contact your representatives, demand support for Ukraine and more pressure on Russia, spread the word, if you can donate to charities you trust.

@HistoryBoomer @AnnieLowrey The country is so politically polarised that half the country do immediately believe they are in the worst of times simply based on who is president
English
By most measures, we're doing better than we ever have, and better than our European allies, but the vibes are off. Many Americans are sure that these are the worst of times.

"People have stopped believing that the economy can be good, and have lost the willingness to admit that they are doing well. That pessimism might be harder to fix than an actual downturn," @AnnieLowrey argues. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/05/…

@Jason Don't you understand. America's Empire already included Canada, Europe, the UK, Australia, Taiwan, The Philippines, and much of the developing world. Trump 2.0 is the story where Rome decided it didn't want to have an empire because every other part of it was just freeloading
English
America's goal should be to expand our Empire
Be it immigration, acquisition or invitation, if you believe we have the best system then you should embrace expansion.
If Cuba, Puerto Rico, Greenland, Greece, Venezuela, Quebec or The Dominican Republic want to join the Union let’s do it!
Let’s get to 60 States in these United!
Let’s be the most populous and prosperous country in the world.

I just don't understand how anyone can advocate continuing the Iran war knowing the human cost in Asia and Africa if the strait can't be reopened soon
English
By all accounts, Trump is very close to accepting a deal to try to open the Strait and essentially punt nuclear talks to the future.
And of course, Netanyahu is working against it.
I wonder if he will give a speech in Congress.
English
@LindseyGrahamSC You shouldn't have pushed for war Lindsay.
English
If it is perceived in the region that a deal with Iran allows the regime to survive and become more powerful over time, we will have poured gasoline on the conflicts in Lebanon and Iraq.
A deal that is perceived to allow Iran to survive and possess the ability to control the Strait in the future will put Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Shia militias in Iraq on steroids.

@SwipeWright It works for the 1940s Germany too. All those people who tried to assassinate Hitler were increasingly more and more radical left.

The White House is currently on lockdown after dozens of gunshots ring out. Reports are that a gunman has been killed by Secret Service.
It's unfortunate how accurate my cartoon has become.

@BarakRavid This is fair enough. But once resolved spend ten years building more pipelines stone the strait of Hormuz

🚨A regional source said all the Arab and Muslim leaders on the call with Trump on Saturday urged him to go ahead with the deal to end the war and de-escalate the situation in the region
🚨"The message from everyone was - please stop the war for the benefit of the whole region", the source said
🚨According to the regional source the negotiations are moving well and the mediators hope to conclude the one-page framework agreement tomorrow and announce it
🚨Then, the mediators want to initiate negotiations on a detailed agreement a few days later, the regional source said

@mehdirhasan Mate you've been calling for non radical Israeli's to do this as well
English
That’s what *you’ve* become *sadly*. Which is what led to my outburst. Never imagined the brilliant comedian and actor who my family and I loved watching growing up on the UK would redpill himself into an online, hate-filled, bigoted Tommy Robinson wannabe.
Sad.

@LindseyGrahamSC War with Iran was the disastrous decision. Any deal now is the consequence of that catastrophic error.
English
If a deal is struck to end the Iranian conflict because it is believed that the Strait of Hormuz cannot be protected from Iranian terrorism and Iran still possesses the capability to destroy major Gulf oil infrastructure, then Iran will be perceived as being a dominate force requiring a diplomatic solution.
This combination of Iran being perceived as having the ability to terrorize the Strait in perpetuity and the ability the inflict massive damage to Gulf oil infrastructure is a major shift of the balance of power in the region and over time will be a nightmare for Israel.
Also, it makes one wonder why the war started to begin with if these perceptions are accurate. I personally am a skeptic of the idea that Iran cannot be denied the ability to terrorize the Strait and the region cannot protect itself against Iranian military capability.
It is important we get this right.
English
@tedcruz You should never have advocated for war Ted. That was radically the wrong call.
English
I am deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran “deal,” being pushed by some voices in the administration.
President Trump’s decision to strike Iran was the most consequential decision of his second term. He was right to do so, and we achieved extraordinary military results—including destroying all of their missiles & drones and sinking their entire navy.
If the result of all that is to be an Iranian regime—still run by Islamists who chant “death to America”—now receiving billions of dollars, being able to enrich uranium & develop nuclear weapons, and having effective control over the Strait of Hormuz, then that outcome would be a disastrous mistake.
The details are still coming out—and I pray the early reports are wrong—but the fact that Biden’s Rob Malley is praising the deal is not encouraging.
President Trump believes in peace through strength, and his strong leadership has already made America much safer. He should continue to hold the line, defend America & enforce the red lines he has repeatedly drawn.

@avidseries Somewhat shifted in terms of territory, but I think the fact that Russians as far from the border as Moscow are seeing offensive strikes landing on their skyline is transformational about something that has been out of sight and out of mind for most of the population.

@Aly_InSC @magyarpeterMP Thanks. Is there a reason why Hungarian farming would not be competitive relative to Ukranian farming?
English
@RadicallyCandid @magyarpeterMP I can:
Hungary has its own strong argiculture but rn since a big part is imported the prices making the local farmers unable to keep up or improve their businesses so they are going bankrupt.
By banning cheap imports the gov can rely on tbe farmers to boost local economy again.
English
The government withdraws Hungary’s intention to leave the International Criminal Court and bans the import of agricultural products from Ukraine.

@yarotrof Come on man. Just end this war for everyone's sake. Ukrainians are your kin.

Farewell, Stephen Colbert.
Very sharp and funny when playing characters on Daily Show and Colbert Report.
Not so sharp or funny when he played himself on Late Show, and very dull/predictable after he caught TDS. Thought his finale was lame & self-indulgent.
