Super proud Dad moment. Took my 12 year old daughter out hunting today. She bagged a beautiful 8 point Buck her first time out. Perfect shot placement right in the armpit. .270 Winchester. Ruger American rifle, Nikon scope.

@JohnCleese That's not how being conquered works. When Europeans conquered the Americas we taught the natives Christianity we didn't teach them about all the religions as if they're equal. This is the same thing except your country is being conquered by Muslims not Christians.

This is wrong and should not be happening, unless all the other religions are being explored in the same way

@JohnCleese I think they feel it is a foregone conclusion at this point that Britain has been conquered. I don't know if it is reversible or not, but, i hope it is.

Is their confidence justified that they will take over Britain, or is it the extreme confidence of the really stupid

@WilliamShatner When Elon finally does make Starfleet Academy a reality I hope you do go and visit the first batch of recruits. It seems like you guys have a pretty good relationship going.

I don’t know. I don’t make the decisions.

@don_mai_don_mai @ResethO There are quite a few servicemen of Japanese descent buried there.

@BaronDestructo @shanaka86 To me it didn't feel like there was any intent to it, ill or otherwise. Just a quick quip. I about fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard. I'm just a regular peon though and I never cared much for the pleasantries of the elites.

Usually find you insigthful but this is a dumb take: "The subtext is not historical insensitivity. It is transactional clarity. Japan depends on American protection and American-secured energy flows. The Pearl Harbor line reminds Tokyo that the relationship has always been asymmetric."

BREAKING: In a single day, Trump told the world he will spend $200 billion, deploy zero troops, freeze Iranian bank accounts, invoke Pearl Harbor to Japan’s face, reverse six allies from refusal to compliance, and keep the price of oil low. All simultaneously. None of it contradictory. The $200 billion first. Trump confirmed the Pentagon supplemental and called it “a small price to pay to make sure we stay tippy top.” This comes on top of a prior $150 billion allocation. The national debt is $38.86 trillion and will cross $39 trillion before March ends. Core PCE just printed 3.1 percent, the worst in nearly two years. GDP slowed to 1.4 percent in Q4. The money funds the war. The war funds the inflation. The inflation erodes the money. The zero troops next. Trump stated directly: “No, I’m not putting troops anywhere. If I were? I certainly wouldn’t tell YOU!” Then added: “We will do whatever is necessary to keep the price low.” Reuters reports internal discussions about US ground forces on Kharg Island, Iran’s 90 percent crude export terminal. Trump publicly denies troops while privately discussing the one deployment that would give Washington direct control over Iranian oil flows. The denial and the discussion coexist because they serve different audiences: the denial serves American voters who do not want another ground war, the discussion serves the Pentagon planners who need leverage. The financial warfare. Treasury Secretary Bessent confirmed the US is observing “major defections” within the Iranian regime. Treasury is tracking and freezing leadership bank accounts. Bessent framed it as “Baghdad Bob” collapse: “We now know where the Iranian leadership bank accounts are, and those are being frozen. And we will hold them and see who comes forward in terms of defections.” He referenced Kharg Island as a potential “US asset” if oil workers refuse coerced operations. The kinetic war degrades Iranian hardware. The financial war degrades Iranian loyalty. The alliance reversal. Six countries that said this was not their war, Japan, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands, issued a joint statement pledging support for safe passage through Hormuz. Germany’s Pistorius said “not our war” two days ago. Germany signed the pledge today. Trump’s “no free rides” doctrine converted refusal into compliance in 48 hours. The Pearl Harbor jab. During the Takaichi summit, a Japanese reporter asked why Japan was not told before the strikes. Trump responded: “Why didn’t you tell ME about PEARL HARBOR?!” Then: “You believe in surprise much more-so than us!” He followed with the leverage: Japan gets 90 percent of its oil through the Strait of Hormuz. America stations 45,000 troops on Japanese soil. The subtext is not historical insensitivity. It is transactional clarity. Japan depends on American protection and American-secured energy flows. The Pearl Harbor line reminds Tokyo that the relationship has always been asymmetric. The price management. Bessent floated sanctions relief on Iranian oil stranded on tankers. WTI trades at a $12 to $20 discount to Brent. The American consumer is partially insulated. The Asian consumer absorbs the full war premium. Every lever Trump pulled today, the spending, the denials, the freezes, the alliances, the rhetoric, converges on one objective: degrade Iran while keeping American gasoline below the political pain threshold. Six moves. One day. Zero troops. Two hundred billion dollars. And the strait that all of it revolves around is still closed. Full analysis: open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@gatorgar Yep. The weirdos have to get blocked or muted. Them: "Charlie didn't get shot in the neck, it was an exploding pen in his pocket planted by Mossad!" Me: Block!

We can’t help these people, so we have to leave them behind.

@BaronDestructo @WeTheBrandon I think no one really knows. Far too many variables to be able to calculate. The entire world is restructuring. The saving grace for us is that it's an election year and Trump will need to make things stable soon to prevent a bloodbath in Congress.

@WeTheBrandon Even if the Strait of Hormuz is opened tomorrow, I'm assuming the effects of the structural damage done to energy infrastructure will be felt for months to come? Do you have a best case scenario timeline?

Overview & conclusion of 3-month closure of the Strait of Hormuz by yours truly: In summary, a 3-month effective blockade would be an unprecedented modern energy crisis—far more severe than past Gulf disruptions—driving oil into triple digits (likely $120-150+ sustained), spiking food prices via fertilizer/energy channels, and inflicting massive economic damage through inflation, reduced growth, and supply-chain chaos. Real-world outcomes would depend on military responses, reserve usage, and duration, but the consensus from analysts is that prolonged closure risks catastrophic global repercussions.

@CageRanch @WilliamShatner On the bright side, you'll probably be the first person in your country with an X money account.

@WilliamShatner I logged out and in. The agony 😳

You have it. Log in and log out.

@gatorgar @LizCrokin @MissKatyAllison @RealCandaceO I try to ignore the normal crazy stuff, but, holy crap! Next she's going to say that Erika is part of a Sasquatch cabal and was trafficking these children to space aliens.

@LizCrokin @MissKatyAllison @RealCandaceO You’re a danger to yourself and others

Erika Kirk is involved in the rape, torture & trafficking of children. I came to that conclusion based off my own research & before @RealCandaceO started exposing this. So everyone who is trying to get me to cover up for this can go fuck off. I don’t care who you are or what you claim to represent — if you are involved in the rape, torture & trafficking of children I will expose you. It’s really that simple.

@JohnCleese Or maybe they're just normal muslims and that's how they behave when the populace they're invading isn't armed. 🤷

Zealots ? Thugs

@JohnCleese 😕 You're only saying that because Hindus don't rape then kill then turn your daughters into kebabs when they're done with them.

I much prefer the Hindu culture to the Islamic culture I hope this isn't racism to say this.. But they integrate with the British rather well

@JohnCleese 🤔 I wonder how long until it's renamed Westminster mosque.

Are the Buddhists next ?

@Awk20000 You better sue the crap out of them @TheAKGuy

Rolling Stone wrote an article about Brandon Herrera

@BasedMikeLee The SAVE America act is probably the single most important piece of legislation that has ever come up for a vote in Congress.

Which would you rather have the Senate pass?

@WilliamShatner I'm honestly just enjoying watching this all unfold. It's the most different product launch I've ever seen. It's Interactive, comedic, and helping a charity. It's quite entertaining.

You should see on Facebook & Instagram the bloodbath meltdown with me mentioning E’s name. 🙄🤣

High ranking politician's kids in the service just makes things difficult in modern warfare. Prince William and Prince Harry were both in the military and the military had to accommodate them and do all kinds of special OPSEC for them etc. If they don't they put a huge target on their unit. Just imagine a secret service detail following her around all day, in briefing rooms, the galley. It's just going to make things messy.

@hasanthehun How? There’s no draft dawg

draft her ass too idgaf

@DougAMacgregor And Vice Versa. We literally manufacturer the same drones, (LUCAS), for $35k and send them into Iran to get shot down by Iran's million dollar defense missiles. LUCAS was developed from a reverse engineered Shahed drone.

@AngelaBelcamino Probably not a smart idea. If he decides to run as an independent that could really mess things up for them.

Are Democrats really going to primary John Fetterman — for having common sense?

@WilliamShatner It's a message. It reads @elonmusk is nerding out and doing a crossover of 2 major fandoms.

It came as a pop up message on my phone. And I was thinking: what the heck is he doing now? 😆

@JohnCleese They'd probably say something like, look how beautiful these little girls are on their wedding day. x.com/i/status/20291…

What do the Imams have to say about this ? I'm being quite serious....
