@WDHunt68 @RadioFreeTom Trump whining that it is unfair for Iran to bomb the Gulf States or close the Straits because we had already “won” is reminiscent of his insistence that Ukraine negotiate away land Russia hasn’t actually taken because Russia has been pummeling it.

@RadioFreeTom I'm not surprised, in general I'm on the same page as you, or at least in the same book.
I wasn't able to read it yet. Doing so now.

Trump’s Plan A was to hit Iran hard, watch the theocrats flee, and then hand power to a government of his own choosing. Should such things not come to pass, Plan B was … well, apparently, there was no Plan B.

@BrendanNyhan @RadioFreeTom He’s putting his face on a gold coin, for God’s sake.

Approaching a dictator-level cult of personality here. Can't overemphasize how un-American this is.

"Sources close to the president have told Zeteo that on separate occasions over the past year, Trump has talked to longtime advisers about what it would take to officially make his birthday a national, federal holiday."

@Acyn Narrator: He does not have the power to do that.

Trump: I have much more power in my second term. I said I'm going to sign an executive order to ensure that the second Saturday in December, is preserved exclusively, nobody is playing football. Not Ohio state against Notre Dame. Not LSU against Alabama. Nobody is going to play football for four hours during that very special time of the year in December. It's preserved forever for the army-navy game. If you don't want to watch football, you don't have to. But if you want to watch football, you are only watching one game. You are not watching 19 different games.

@lrozen The Oval Office looks like Saddam Hussein’s palace.

Just an embarrassing amount of gold chochkees here, as Trump tells a Japanese reporter he did not tell allies about his Iran war plans he now wants their help with because he wanted element of surprise, like Japan wanted when it attacked Pearl Harbor.
English
@brentdsadler @Namasteankit He said “hopefully.” Not a sure thing. Maybe he should be nicer to our allies rather than constantly insulting them.

Internationalize the Reopening of Hormuz!
Good news from President Trump today, and expected given the importance to many of America’ allies of petroleum flows thru the Straits of Hormuz.
"Hopefully China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, and others, that are affected by this artificial constraint, will send Ships to the area so that the Hormuz Strait will no longer be a threat by a Nation that has been totally decapitated," President Trump added.
Not sure about China being included given their behavior recently and track record in the Red Sea and counter piracy operations. France is already sending a flotilla and hopefully soon Japan sends mine sweepers. History is repeating from the early 90s…
Japan has over the years loosened interpretations of its pacifist constitution, such that if Iran’s threat to its energy deemed a national danger it can act - sending minesweepers especially as the direct threat from Iran’s military eliminated becomes more politically viable. Memories still linger of Japan’s tardy response in Gulf War One.

@lionel_trolling @RadioFreeTom The generals didn’t say, uh, sir, it’s not so easy for the military to handle it?
English
@RadioFreeTom Perhaps Hegseth believes that learning how to formulate strategy is a distraction from “warfighting.”
English
I hope the first thing this task force does is inform Pete Hegseth about what happens in the war colleges he's never attended - or apparently, even visited - because all this stuff isn't it.
He has no idea what he's talking about here, but that's no surprise.
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth@SecWar
Professional Military Education should produce warfighters and leaders—not wokesters. That’s why we are establishing a Task Force to evaluate our Senior Service Colleges and ensure the focus is where it belongs. No distractions. Just warfighting.
English
@David_Charts2 @KimStrassel I’ll bet Biden would have anticipated the closing of the Straits of Hormuz, which Trump apparently did not.
English
@KimStrassel 1. We had record oil production under Biden.
2. We are not insulated from the global oil market.
3. Trump has not explained why attacking Iran was necessary.
If Trump wants to use our oil here only and refine it here too, great, but that isn’t the plan so we still import it.
English
The idea that this admin is "fumbling" (Politico) this energy moment is hilarious. It's thanks to Trump's energy indendence/dominance agenda that we could confront Iran, and why his team now has levers to pull. The real risk to energy: Biden

English
@McFaul But EVERYONE knows about the Straits of Hormuz. The military advisers must have raised it. Trump however listened to the gurgling sounds of his wishfully thinking gut.
English
The Trump administration does not use the conventional inter-agency process run by the National Security Council to make national security decisions, which is probably why they never thought about second and third order effects of their war in Iran.
English
@RadioFreeTom Why does he keep using the phrase “warfighting.”
English
If I were Hegseth, I'd close every war college before they had time to add him to the curriculum.

@carlquintanilla @RadioFreeTom He’s just selling. He doesn’t care whether what he’s selling is real, or whether his sales pitch is false. He’s just trying to make the sale. He is always closing.

@JoJoFromJerz @atrupar Just like they didn’t interfere in the 2016 election.

QUINTANILLA: Do we think the Russians have shared intel about the location of US military assets, and if so, why would we be giving waivers on Russian oil sanctions?
WITKOFF: I'm not an intel officer, so I can't tell you. I can tell you that on the call with the president, the Russians said they have not been sharing. That's what they said. We can take them at their word.

My comments wouldn’t even be a news story if I had said this about Christians.

@djmont @stustin @RadioFreeTom @BretWeinstein Again, how was she offensive as a candidate? She was the sitting Vice-President. And compared to Trump, who was offensive in every conceivable way, she was a paragon.
English
@stustin @RadioFreeTom @BretWeinstein No code. Not personally offensive, but rather offensive as a candidate. Someone you ordinarily wouldn’t want to vote for.
I think you knew what I meant. You’re just trying to stir something up. 😊
English
Hi Tom, I’m a life long liberal alarmed by the capture of my party by people who have reversed all values Democrats once stood for, and are hostile to the principles on which our country is based.
Are you actually confused by my position, or are you playing dumb for some reason?
Tom Nichols@RadioFreeTom
Yes, yes, you had no choice, something something. Or maybe Trump has always been a test of basic judgment and character and millions of people have failed it because they were obsessed with their own resentful grievances.
English
@RadioFreeTom The sitting Vice President of the United States was by definition a credible candidate.

Bret Weinstein@BretWeinstein
I don’t owe anyone an apology for supporting Trump. No one does. The Democrats didn’t run a credible candidate. They ran two insults to our intelligence. It was a de facto coup—rule by a cabal of advisors. Voting Trump was a patriotic duty even if a cabal now seems to control him
English
@1sounddept @atrupar Because Trump wants to leverage his power.

@atrupar Why is there anti-trans legislation in a voter bill?

Leavitt: "As far as married women who have changed their name, if they're already registered to vote, they're entirely unaffected by the SAVE Act. And for the small fraction of individuals who have changed their name or their address, they can still register to vote of course, they just have to go through their state processes to update that documentation."
English
@Frostygresh @atrupar The SAVE Act is a nuclear bomb used to dig a hole to plant an ornamental bush.
English
@atrupar there is no wide speread voter corruption issue in the US. This bill is all about voter supression.
English
@GraceAl38236563 @atrupar You have to bring your birth certificate or passport to vote, after producing them to register?
English
@atrupar Married women who have changed their names are NOT "entirely unaffected" -- the bill’s requirements apply whenever registration information is created or updated, which almost all voters must do at some point.
