@RichardHaass Why is it good?

Good to see Pres Trump has announced US will mount a blockade of Strait of Hormuz unless Iran opens it to all. We should also propose a new governance authority for the Strait in which Iran participates but doesn't control. open.substack.com/pub/richardhaa…

@KhedroobT None. But it's not all up to TW

What has Taiwan to gain by reunification with China. Look at Tibet, East Turkestan and Hong Kong. Taiwan is an independent country. It does not need China.

@marklevinshow Funny you're now disappointed

The 2-week ceasefire is being violated right now by the Iranian-Nazi regime.  Missiles are being fired into Israel and perhaps other countries in the region.  Are they able to defend themselves? We have the right man as president, and I bet he's furious about this.  I don't personally know.  But this will be the question throughout -- that is, do we expect the Iranian regime to honor a deal, how will we monitor it, and how will we enforce it.  These will all be very difficult issues to resolve.

@realBrandonGill Why

America has too many foreign workers. We need less, not more.

@EricLDaugh Can't you read constitution which is in English?

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump just SOUNDED the alarm, over 320,000, or 9% PERCENT of all US babies were born to illegal or temporary migrant mothers This is insane. The Supreme Court needs to do the right thing and STRIKE IT DOWN!

@Yaqiu @jaynordlinger 英语好差啊

The fact that the unhinged U.S. president is getting more unhinged is depressing. But Americans should still be grateful for the fact that you can say so without fear, and you need to fight to preserve that freedom, as I told @jaynordlinger.

@RyanFedasiuk @abcnews Next time blame Google maps

The @abcnews is out this morning with a disturbing story: The IRGC is actively making use of detailed satellite imagery and analysis published by MizarVision, a Chinese geospatial analytics company — and has used this data to target American, Australian, and allied forces in the Middle East. This is a fluid and fast-moving situation and I want to be clear about what we know so far. 1️⃣ It's clear U.S. forces in the Gulf are operating in an environment that is very different from any other they have encountered previously. Commercial satellite imagery collected by foreign companies is now available at a quality and frequency that is good enough to put U.S. combat forces in harm's way. This is ultimately why U.S. collection platforms like @vantortech and @planet chose this weekend to suspend their coverage over the Middle East. Unfortunately, predictably, foreign competitors like MizarVision see no reason to censor their own product offerings. 2️⃣ The implications are grim: ostensibly private Chinese AI companies are directly helping the Iranian regime target U.S. and allied forces in the region. The ABC has information that the IRGC is striking U.S. facilities "within hours" of MizarVision publishing them. I told @henryzwartz that this would effectively amount to Iranian forces outsourcing targeting data to a Chinese company: It is "the greatest degree of support we have seen China provide to a proxy force against the United States" — there is really no other way to read it. 3️⃣ If the Chinese government wanted to rein in the actions of MizarVision and other imagery providers, it could. And it should. Spokespersons from @MFA_China have so far attempted to downplay the significance of this development. I'm willing to buy that Chinese officials haven't been aware of the importance of this particular imagery or the extent of its use by the IRGC — but China should recognize this is an extremely serious development. We're talking about Chinese enterprises directly supplying actionable intelligence to wartime enemies of the United States. MizarVision has spent weeks zeroing in on U.S. forces and bases in the region and publishing their activities on its Weibo account. It hasn't done the same to Iran. It's very clear what is going on here — and it is unacceptable. This doesn't have to be a story about China. It's clear the United States is also learning about the battlefield potential of commercial sat imagery in real-time. Beijing should understand that U.S. concerns at this moment are deadly serious. I expect the U.S. government will do everything in its power to defend its personnel. China should mirror the U.S. suspension of commercial satellite imagery collection over the Middle East. abc.net.au/news/2026-04-0…

@RepNateMoran Then drugs price go up

America relies on China for up to 90% of key drug ingredients—putting our supply and national security at risk. We must rebuild U.S. manufacturing, boost innovation, and confront this challenge head-on to keep lifesaving medicines made in America.

@DavidMKeyes The Iran becomes enemy again.

5 minutes after Iran is free, it will become one of the most prosperous, industrious, successful and innovative countries on Earth

@LauraLoomer You're dumb

Why do we have so many Chinese in our country? Most of these Chinese immigrants are spies.

@DSPetolicchio What did China do?

China is a global threat that pulls strings on every continent. Why is no one talking about this?

@GuntherEagleman What is the point?

Anyone rooting for the Iranian regime should be deported.

@SenTomCotton Help my rent pls!

President Trump’s proposed $1.5 trillion investment in our defense budget is welcome news. Congress should fund this request as soon as possible.

@BasedMikeLee 33 countries do

America is a serious country Serious countries don’t reward illegal immigration Automatic birthright citizenship for the children of illegal migrants rewards illegal immigration

@captive_dreamer Respect the amendment

Two Chinese citizens who don't speak a word of English fly to Hawaii, give birth to a child, fly back to China the next day and that child is now an "American." Does anyone actually believe this? It's absurd

@pmddomingos Is it the reason of the war?

The IRGC murdered tens of thousands of its own people. America punished them for it while Europe cowardly did nothing, but somehow Europeans feel morally superior.

@kajakallas It's amazing that you can have this job.

I had a phone call with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi today to discuss the situation in Iran and its impact on the global economy and energy security. We also discussed EU-China relations. Iranian attacks on civilian ships, and the threat of more, have brought traffic in the Strait of Hormuz to a near halt. This is why restoring safe, toll-free freedom of navigation in the Strait, consistent with the Law of the Sea, is an urgent priority. The EU supports all diplomatic efforts to achieve this and calls for de-escalation and restraint. Attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure must cease.

@realBrandonGill What are you talking about?

America belongs to Americans. It does not belong to the world.

@MarshaBlackburn I guess you can't read English

The 14th Amendment does not empower illegal aliens to give birth in the U.S. to ensure their children automatically become citizens. President Trump is protecting the value and integrity of American citizenship. We cannot allow illegal aliens to exploit the system.

@marklevinshow It seems you never had a real job in life

ARM THE IRANIAN PEOPLE IMMEDIATELY! I've been calling for this for weeks on radio.  One thing we can do, which Reagan did in Afghanistan, Angola, and Nicaragua, is ARM THE PEOPLE in Iran so they are no longer butchered by these monsters without the ability to fight back!  They will rise up as a real fighting force, but they need weapons!  And it must be done IMMEDIATELY, especially if we are talking about ending our military operation in a few weeks!
