@MarcusAgrippa67 @macergifford @LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS This was perhaps the best example in a while.

@Steve_Crooks @macergifford @LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS You’re so clever.

Just spoke to @POTUS about our European allies’ unwillingness to provide assets to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning, which benefits Europe far more than America. I have never heard him so angry in my life. I share that anger given what’s at stake. The arrogance of our allies to suggest that Iran with a nuclear weapon is of little concern and that military action to stop the ayatollah from acquiring a nuclear bomb is our problem not theirs is beyond offensive. The European approach to containing the ayatollah’s nuclear ambitions have proven to be a miserable failure. The repercussions of providing little assistance to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America. I consider myself very forward-leaning on supporting alliances, however at a time of real testing like this, it makes me second guess the value of these alliances. I am certain I am not the only senator who feels this way.

@BuenoForMiami @CaptPaulSolarte SFO has privatized TSA and it functioning normally, and normal is efficient at SFO.

@CaptPaulSolarte Not the airports. Those are run by local governments, which is making the same problem I mentioned above. Each airline should be responsible for the passengers they sell tickets to.

How long until the TSA debacle destroys the airline industry? 6:00 a.m. at MIA and the TSA line was LOOOONG. The government should worry less about foreign nations and concentrate more on the cluster f they're creating at home.

@BuenoForMiami The Sept 11 security fee would cover TSA costs but some of that is siphoned off by the government to other purposes. A stealth tax.

The crux of the argument is; Why should tax payers, many whom don’t fly themselves, be responsible for those who do? In my opinion, airlines should be responsible for their own security. Americans shouldn’t have to work to pay for the flying privileges of others. That’s just wrong.

@jojojojojobz @LibertySoldierz @ShadowofEzra Don’t think they thought of that?

@LibertySoldierz @ShadowofEzra How are they gonna launch anything without power

President Trump gives Iran exactly 48 hours to open the Strait of Hormuz, or he will blow up all of their power plants in the country. If a country’s power plants were destroyed, the effects would be immediate. Most areas would lose electricity, and water systems would fail as pumps and treatment facilities shut down. Hospitals and emergency services would be strained since backup generators only last so long. Food supplies would also be disrupted as refrigeration and transportation break down. The economy would begin to shut down, and daily life would quickly deteriorate, especially in major cities.

@SenatorLankford This verification is already super effective. Only a few people, and mostly republicans, have been found to have cast fraudulent votes. You are trying to remove the vote from women.

It's already federal law that only citizens have the right to vote. What the SAVE America Act does is verify that people who vote are citizens. We need to pass this common sense bill.

@allenanalysis TSA background checks for employment or security credentials (like TWIC/PreCheck) look back 7–10 years for felonies, including violent crimes, smuggling, or fraud. Permanent disqualifiers include treason, terrorism, and espionage.

🚨BREAKING: Trump just threatened to deploy ICE agents to American airports as TSA replacements if Democrats don’t fund DHS. The full statement singles out Somali immigrants specifically and names Ilhan Omar. Let’s be precise about what this actually is: TSA screens 2.5 million passengers daily for weapons and explosives. It requires specialized training, security clearances, and standardized protocols. ICE is an immigration enforcement agency. They are not the same thing. They do not have the same training. Swapping one for the other does not make airports safer — it makes them a deportation checkpoint. Senator Slotkin warned about armed ICE agents at polling locations. Trump just announced armed ICE agents at airports. The same airports where TSA funding was blocked seven times by Republicans. They blocked the funding. Now they’re threatening to replace the agency. With immigration enforcement. At the place every American has to pass through to travel. Senator Slotkin said if we get to that point we’ve lost the plot. Read Trump’s statement again. We’re at that point. Never stop connecting the dots.

@Rightanglenews TSA background checks for employment or security credentials (like TWIC/PreCheck) look back 7–10 years for felonies, including violent crimes, smuggling, or fraud. Permanent disqualifiers include treason, terrorism, and espionage.

BREAKING - President Trump has just announced that ICE will be deployed to airports on Monday to assist TSA with security amid the Democrat shutdown, stating they will arrest any illegals found during operations, with a “heavy emphasis on those from Somalia.”

@lapogus1 @TheGlobalWarmer Changes in the earths orientation drives the main change in temperature. Warming oceans release CO2. Positive feedback drives further warming and off you go.

@TheGlobalWarmer Except for the minor detail. That CO2 lags temperature by 400-800 years.

Climate deniers keep posting ice-age graphs as if they weaken the case for CO2. They do the opposite. If tiny orbital changes can help flip the planet when amplified by feedbacks, that’s evidence of a high-gain climate system — not a low-sensitivity one. CO2 is part of the amplifier stack.

@clawstreet67 @KobeissiLetter This is a false statement.

@KobeissiLetter You are what you pay for" applies here. US covers 70% of NATO defense spending. Remove that and Europe is funding a security umbrella with a $400B annual hole. The paper tiger comment isnt posturing. Its math.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: “Without the USA, NATO is a paper tiger.”

@OxfordxInsights Not a good market to go public.

The SpaceX IPO hasn't happened yet. That matters. Because if history is any guide, the biggest gains go to the people who got in before the announcement — not after. Dr. Mark Skousen says there's still time to get positioned. Click to watch his presentation.

@MalariaDFL @hausfath You can sleep well at night.

@hausfath I do worry that it will go the wrong direction and get cooler.

There is a lot to worry about with climate change, but "runaway" feedbacks are not one of them. Good piece by Andrew Dessler over at The Climate Brink on how climate feedbacks work and why the Earth is different from Venus: #footnote-1-190165223" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theclimatebrink.com/p/dont-panic-a…

@avidseries Global engagement and strong national / local identity are not mutually exclusive.

I don't understand internationalists at all. They want to be born nowhere and everywhere. To be rooted and connected to a place where your culture and ancestors existed for centuries is "nothing special." The world they seek has the texture and depth of an airport transit lounge.

@officer_Lew Biden administration? You know this is 2026, right?

This is what happens when you gut border security, prioritize catch-and-release over actual enforcement, and leave agencies understaffed and demoralized for years. Thanks, Biden admin. Travelers are paying the price.

BREAKING🚨: Chaos at the world's busiest airport! TSA security wait times at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL) spiked to over 90 minutes Thursday morning. Lines are backing up, flights are getting disrupted, and travelers are fuming amid staffing issues and high volume. Arrive EARLY if you're flying through ATL today! ✈️😤

@RedBlue__Purple @WxNB_ A ruble deposited in your account.

@WxNB_ There was “global warming” and “climate change” in 1895? Hmmm 🤨

In Phoenix, Arizona, temperatures could reach an unbelievable 107°F (+42°C) on Friday. If that verifies, it would break the record for the earliest occurrence of 107°F since records began in 1895, pulverising the previous record by a whopping 44 days. This is totally bonkers.

Wow, this is a pretty grim assessment. Looks like food is going to get a lot more expensive unless you like eating soy beans.

@matknot @_AlRuddy @Breaking911 Yeah, that find me more votes call.

It needs 60 votes. Wether they have the votes or not when voter fraud is exposed showing rigged elections along with foreign interference and how they over threw the United States Government, Trump can sign an E.O that will mandate voter id across the country for national security reasons

🚨 BREAKING: The SAVE America Act has advanced in the US Senate, 51-48.

@scotchmcclure @Andercot @Rizstanford Quantum mechanics might have something to say, at the relative time.

@Andercot @Rizstanford Refreshing to see you describe it thus. Also, physics is not just incomplete but it is fundamentally flawed. Example: we know time is not linear. We KNOW this from Einstein. Yet, we force the Big Bang and linear time on everything. There are so many other examples.

Physicists: "The greatest issue of our time is that physics is fundamentally incomplete, that we have no firm footing from which to explain our best theories" Also Physicists: "That's completely impossible, the laws of physics forbid it."

@MarcusAgrippa67 @macergifford @LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS Commas matter.

@macergifford @LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS How long will Ukraine last without the USA jackass?

@Dag_Ramirez @rodneydoan54 @KurtSchlichter Look further, 1953 and the orchestrated coup by the west because of nationalization of oil assets.

@rodneydoan54 @KurtSchlichter Correction, the war started in 1979 against the west.

The story is not that NATO allies won't help defend shipping in the Persian Gulf. The story is none of them have the capability to meaningfully do so.

@OMGTheMess Keep thinking, nearly there..l

Are European countries refusing naval service because they fear Muslim backlash? Or because they have degraded military capability? Or because they hate trump?
