@SecRubio @UnderSecPD @SecScottBessent @mercoglianos Pitch for Peace by self-interest, helping The People, Strait governance: United Toll Booth UTB It’s irritating to find that the IRGC regime is providing tickets thru the Strait by way of the Ayatollbooth method. Further annoyances include only letting IRGC friends’ ships thru, including China which supplies the regime with drone parts and chemicals for missile fuel. To discourage this, tax it. Enter the UTB, the United Toll Booth, for all ships leaving or entering (loaded) the Gulf of Oman. Run by a Gulf Council comprised of reps from all local nations suffering from IRGC drones and missiles - perhaps headed by a Saudi. Collected funds to be dispersed for healthcare and compensation for local victims; and property; and replacement & strengthening of drone defense and missile defense. Ships of or for China and Iran to pay extra. Some NATO countries may choose to help collect tolls with their mini-navies, virtuously & in their self-interest. In time, the UTB may become corrupt and bureaucratic. Don’t care - it makes US energy products more attractive. Tolls to be paid in dollars. IMHO.

@ThePowerAudit @TFL1728 Perhaps the UAE should try to hire some Hashashim or modern equivalents to ensure justice is done for all that participated in any way with the destruction.@UAE_News

Iran reportedly attacked the Fujairah oil terminal. This is the endpoint of the ADCOP pipeline, the UAE's only Hormuz bypass. 1.5 million barrels per day of crude capacity, expandable to 1.8 million. This pipeline was built specifically so the UAE could export oil without transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Iran is not just hitting a coalition partner. They are targeting the infrastructure that lets oil flow without Hormuz. The only other major Hormuz bypass is Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline to Yanbu, which was attacked in April and lost approximately 700,000 barrels per day of throughput. Iran's message is clear. If they cannot export through Hormuz, nobody bypasses it either.

@Mr_Derivatives Jean? as in Billy?

Futes: What rhymes with lean, mean, bean, queen? Don’t you all answer at once now.

Working for a President who demands results has paid dividends. Director Patel has taken the FBI in a new direction. In addition to producing the lowest crime rates in modern US history, here are some of the transformative changes we implemented to ensure the productivity push continues, because you deserve the best. No compromises. -We targeted manpower and technical resources to assist state and local law enforcement in large-scale arrest operations targeting violent criminals through the expanded use of UFAP warrants. -We expanded the counter-drone program and initiated the first national counter-drone training school to assist state and local law enforcement partners in combatting this growing threat. -We implemented strict internal FISA reforms to vigorously guard civil liberties and constitutional protections. -We reformed the intelligence analyst position to make the work product more operationally efficient and accessible to agents in the field in both the counter-terrorism and counter-espionage spaces. -We implemented strict financial controls which resulted in hundreds of millions in cost savings on redundant and unnecessary programs, office space, and expenses. -We reformed the hiring process to emphasize strict merit-based hiring and we implemented workforce reforms and personnel actions to hold employees strictly accountable for their actions. Accountability matters. Results matter.

This is one of the most astonishing pieces you will ever read. @patio11 digs into the SPLC scandal and finds that it is, in the details, 10X worse than you thought it was

@patio11 Thank you for this insight. This week in Orgs That SPLC Targeted But Didn’t Cancel: @Awake_IL

Nice job, Pete.

@Schwalm5132 @tgradous Sure, resistance is futile. Do it for fun anyway. Remove Thune,

@JesseBWatters @tgradous An Orgy of Socialism. Memorable line, kudos to Senator John Fetterman.

🚨 MUST WATCH: Sen John Fetterman WARNS of a “COMMUNIST RESURGENCE” 🚨 “These BAD ideas refuse to die… and now they’re BACK” 😳 “Funded by billionaires… aligned with CCP groups like Code Pink” 💣 “An ORGY of SOCIALISM taking over parts of the party” 😬🇺🇸

@Polymarket @rawsalerts

BREAKING: Kamala Harris's odds have quadrupled in the 2028 Presidential Nominee race. 8% chance.

Thune is BLOCKING VOTER ID. It’s Thune. He controls the Senate.

Let’s be fair for a second here: isn’t Trump only viable option right now to order a second, this time very extensive, attack on Iran to bring it on its knees before it can retaliate? With stocks at ATH and crude oil nowhere close to ATH, I can see how he might feel there is a market buffer to carry on with this plan and stomach some brief and intense panic confident it can all quickly recover as soon as the US manages to successfully take control of the Strait of Hormuz back, re establish its strong military influence in the region and perhaps even take possession of Iran’s enriched uranium. If this plan is successful, the market will be flying high into November mid term elections and Trump won’t need any sort of approval from Congress in about a month to formally establish war powers. This time around, GCC countries will also likely join US military efforts actively to deal with Iran threat once and for all. What are the odds of success here? No one knows what’s the real state of Iran’s military and willingness to counterattack hard. Its threat of mutual destruction in the region has been so far an effective negotiation tool but putting that into action might be a whole different story because if they end up on the losing side the country might end up like Iraq with what will remain of its deeply damaged whole economy, especially ample oil reserves, effectively under foreign control. However, it should be acknowledged that no military analyst expect Iran to successfully endure the first wave of military strikes and end up in even a stronger position, geopolitically speaking, compared to the period before the 28th of February. This might make Iran confident to engage a second military confrontation to strengthen its gains even further if they remain successful. One thing is sure: Trump doesn’t have the option to patiently wait for US blockade to be effective and choke Iran’s economy. The longer the Strait of Hormuz stays shut the greater the damages to the global economy, especially US allies like Europe and Japan that don’t have enough SPR to keep shielding their countries for much longer. While traders still hang on the hope everything can be solved through peace negotiations, it is clear that isn’t possible anymore after the last conditions put forward by Iran are even worse than the initial ones. It looks like nobody is preparing for a showdown of very uncertain outcome while the truth is the showdown might start in any moment

FISA 702 is up for reauthorization this week. Congress needs to require a warrant to search any of your private communications that may have been “incidentally collected” under FISA 702. Pass it on if you agree.

🔥 LMAO! DHS is going ALL IN on President Trump’s proposal to change ICE to NICE (National Immigration and Customs Enforcement), so that the media will have to call them “NICE AGENTS” DO IT, @SecMullinDHS! Play some 4-D chess! 🤣

We will slaughter the Farm Bill if Sections 10205, 10206 and 10207 are NOT REMOVED @HouseGOP Section 10205 would shield pesticide makers from liability, weaken warning labels, and put foreign chemical corporations above the health of American families. Sections 10206 and 10207 would strip protections that help keep dangerous pesticides out of our children’s playgrounds, communities, and drinking water.

@avischarf @mercoglianos @YorukIsik Seems fair - grown by Russian-culture Russian-speaking farmers, suppressed by the rotten Kiev regime.

Exposed: How Ukrainian wheat stolen by Russia is smuggled to Israel. My investigation, with the fab @YorukIsik , reveals how grain stolen from occupied Ukrainian territory has been sold to Israel. Profits from the shady operation are financing Putin's war haaretz.com/israel-news/se…

@Mr_Derivatives Opps. KWEB. The picture is sort of a Chinese fire drill involving their EVs.

@Mr_Derivatives KEEB:

$KWEB at all time lows relative to $SPY. $KWEB at all time lows relative to $QQQ. $KWEB near all time lows relative to $DIA. $KWEB near all time lows relative to $IWM. I mean at some point....

@Mr_Derivatives Cuz SNDK earnings per share are likely to be 20% of all the 500? Reports on Thursday. Might have something to do with it.

$SNDK going apeshit again tonight. Hit as high as $1,020… This name was literally a $30 stock a year ago. My goooooooodness. Retire your bloodlines with these kinda returns in such a short time period too.

@BasedMikeLee Is that a wig? She might actually be bald, imo.

MSM = far-left hacktivists

@nicksortor @susancrabtree Is she wearing a wig?

🚨 WOW! President Trump just REAMED a CBS reporter for reading off the WHCA Dinner's manifesto, referring to admin officials as "pedophiIes" "I am NOT a pedophile. You read that crap from some SICK person." "Your friends on the other side of the plate are the ones who were involved with Epstein." "You shouldn't be reading that on 60 Minutes. You are a DISGRACE. Go ahead, let's finish the interview."
