Trump lashes out at Europe and NATO this morning, calling them "cowards" for not assisting the US in opening the Strait of Hormuz.


News flash from the future: Even a blockade of Kharg Island would not force Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. This (yet again) reflects a persistent misunderstanding of Iran’s strategic doctrine. For Tehran, control over the Strait is not just economic leverage—it is a core component of regime survival and deterrence. Under pressure, Iran is more likely to escalate than concede. Reopening the Strait would likely require one of two extreme options: either regime change, or a large-scale military campaign to seize and secure the waterway. Such an operation would take months and still wouldn’t prevent Iran from disrupting traffic through asymmetric means. There is no silver bullet to the Iran problem. The regime will hold onto Hormuz the same way it defends every pillar of its survival—with persistence and escalation. If reopening the Strait is the strategic objective, policymakers should recognize the cost: a prolonged, high-intensity conflict, and likely retaliation against Gulf energy infrastructure. #Ira


Opinion: Lawmakers voted to put Plato and Augustine on a college entrance exam — then voted to eliminate programs where students study Plato and Augustine. indystar.com/story/opinion/…


Pittsburgh Public Schools will be closed for three days, and compel "asynchronous" remote learning, because of the NFL Draft. Since the city will have a lot of visitors this will "ensure students can continue learning safely and effectively." Unreal. publicsource.org/pittsburgh-pub…

The national average price of gasoline in the U.S. has reached $3.90 per gallon, while diesel has climbed to $5.09 per gallon. It now looks like gasoline will hit $4/gal next week and could head toward $4.10/gal and beyond.


This kind of stuff happens during war. We should be on guard.

Lol just drive your wife 30 minutes and shut up you stupid idiot

In a shockingly frank essay, Oman's foreign minister — who mediated talks between the U.S. and Iran — suggests that "America has lost control of its own foreign policy" and that its allies must tell the truth and bring it back to the negotiating table: economist.com/by-invitation/…

they got an IMAX in space before an IMAX reasonably close to where you live

‘PROJECT HAIL MARY’ has become the first ever film to premiere in the stratosphere. A bespoke IMAX display was sent into space that played footage from the film.
