Never forget the Freedom Convoy in Canada 🇨🇦

State’s Bureau of Counterterrorism reported that since taking control of Syria, President al-Shara’a has ceased all cooperation with Iran, Hezbollah, and other Iran-aligned militia groups that had been in effect during the regime of deposed dictator Bashar al-Assad, and disrupted many smuggling routes formerly used by Iran and its proxies. Syria took additional steps following the launch of OEF to fortify its borders and prevent Hezbollah and Iran-backed militias from re-entry into Syria, State said.



40% of ships that crossed the strait of hormuz have not paid the iran toll. They took the us escort route.


Graham Platner: “It’s no surprise to me the establishment media outlets are just gonna run gossip instead of wanting to talk about the things that actually matter in this race which are the material realities Mainers are working with. These people are gonna try to make this race about anything but what’s it’s supposed to be about which is policy. Amy and I have a very loving and very happy marriage. They would very much like to try to rip that apart. They’re gonna come after us in every awful way they possibly can and we’re just gonna keep talking about the fact that the hospitals are closing, childcare facilities are closing, teachers and nurses aren’t paid enough and that everybody down here continues to work harder and longer and get less. The powers that be don’t want us to talk about that so they’re just gonna do gossip instead… What Genevieve McDonald said in the NYT is not true”


There is not enough anti-ballistic missile production in the United States and this could lead to a crisis in different parts of the world. Russia is ramping up its internal production of ballistic missiles. I sent a letter to the White House and to the U.S. Congress. I hope they will understand and respond. 60–65 anti-ballistic missiles per month, compared to current challenges, is nothing. It is no secret and Russia knows this. We need to expand the production. I asked the previous U.S. administration, and I am asking today’s administration to give Ukraine licenses to produce Patriot missiles. We can increase the production of Patriot missiles. This will help us. This will help the Middle East and any other country that the United States decides to help. Until we produce a European anti-ballistic system, we will need support from the United States. From an interview with Face the Nation. (2/5)

My piece in @FT on why Iran has been reluctant to sign on to the MoU agreement and why the agreement is not likely to easily lead to a larger deal in 30 or 60 days: "The dominant view shared across the political spectrum in Tehran is that, given Trump’s record, the promise of diplomacy could actually raise the threat of war. Washington’s seemingly generous concessions are interpreted as too good to be true. Tehran suspects that the US seeks not a lasting peace but a free hand to keep Iran isolated and weak, checking its nuclear and missile activities by periodically “mowing the lawn”. Faced with such a prospect, deterrence is all that matters. Iranian leaders talk of control of the Strait of Hormuz and maintaining Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium as the key to deterrence. They believe any durable deal that includes economic compensation for war damage and lasting sanctions relief would hinge on these two issues; the US is demanding that Iran concede on both. This makes striking a lasting deal highly unlikely."👇🏽 ft.com/content/6ccf1b…
