The U and UVA. Like Hedy Lamarr, co-inventor on a U.S. patent AND listed in IMDB … but that’s where the comparison ends.

"they have no cards, other than a short term extortion of the World by using International Waterways" Those feel like... pretty solid cards?

It’s almost like people think that Trump is impulsive and fires cabinet members at will

A Trump insider opened a $51,000,000 oil short position — hours before Trump announced a ceasefire with Iran. This guy is now 16 for 16. $170 million in profit. A perfect streak. This is not a talented trader. "We placed the bet." "The ceasefire dropped." "We cashed out." Sixteen times in a row. That is not skill. That is not instinct. That is not research. That is someone who knows what is coming before it comes. Think about what that actually means. A private individual is placing a $51 million bet that oil prices are about to collapse — hours before a sitting president announces a ceasefire that collapses oil prices. Not once. Sixteen times. Zero losses. There are only two explanations and both should terrify you. Either someone inside the White House — or with direct access to it — is leaking ceasefire negotiations to traders before diplomats, before the press, before the American people hear a single word. That is insider trading. That is corruption. That is a federal crime. Or the timing of the announcement itself is being shaped around the trade. Which is worse. This is not a genius investor who reads the news faster than you do. The news hadn't happened yet. He wasn't reading the news. He was getting a phone call. While Americans were watching the ceasefire announcement and feeling relieved — somebody already knew. Somebody had already bet $51 million on it. And somebody was already counting their winnings. You are not watching a free market. You are watching a White House with a side hustle. Via~ Really American

@SenMikeLee The RUSSIANS are no longer a threat? A country that actively opposes US interests around the world?

Our withdrawal from NATO would be long overdue. NATO has run its course. The threats that existed at its inception are no longer relevant 76 years later. Europe has been leaning on American taxpayers for their security for decades, offering too little in return. That’s why I introduced the Not A Trusted Organization (NATO) Act last year, and why President Trump is right to question American membership today.
Department of State@StateDept

PRESS SEC: It’s quite sad that NATO turned their backs on the American people over the last six weeks when it’s the American people who have been funding their defense. President Trump looks forward to having a very frank and candid conversation with Secretary Rutte.

Weaken NATO. Give Iran Hormuz. Bailout Russia. Empower China. It’s the weakest and most Anti-American foreign policy in the history of the Republic.

Reading through Szijjarto’s leaked conversations with Lavrov is vomit-inducing on its own, but when Lavrov reveals how the American side wants to get ‘Ukraine out of the way’ to resume business with Russia… I can’t. I feel despair. They are killing us, and you say this?

💥New call leaks, both transcripts and audio: Sergey Lavrov urges Péter Szijjártó to blackmail the EU Council over Ukraine and later tasks him with sending him EU documents. Hard to tell which part is most damning. Here's the "Kremlin Hotline", part 2. vsquare.org/kremlin-hotlin…

NEW: Vice President Vance delivers a message in Budapest about the "moral cooperation" between the United States and Hungary, under the leadership of President Trump and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. "There is so much that unites the United States and Hungary, and unfortunately, there have been too few people who have been willing to stand up for the values of Western civilization."

@RapidResponse47 @SecMullinDHS That’s just genius when we’re expecting 1.25 million visitors for the World Cup, all flying to games in — guess what? — big cities. FIFA is going to have to invent something even bigger than the Peace Prize

.@SecMullinDHS: "Some of these cities have international airports... If they're a 'sanctuary city' and they're receiving international flights — and we're asking them to partner with us at the airport, but once they walk out of the airport, they're not going to enforce immigration policy — maybe we need to have a really hard look at that."

@Acyn It’s really a triumph for affordability when 1.25 million visitors coming from outside the U.S. for the World Cup have to sell their tickets to Americans for $25

Mullin: I believe sanctuary cities is not lawful. Some of these cities have international airports. If they are a sanctuary city, should they really be processing customs into their city? We need to have a really hard look at that. Baier: So you are saying that big cities that are sanctuary cities that have a big airport, they might lose their customs? Mullin: I'm going to be forced to make tough decisions.

NEW: In interview w/ colleague @BretBaier, DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin floats the idea of stripping CBP/customs officers from airports in large sanctuary cities as retaliation for refusing to cooperate with the federal government. International travelers wouldn’t be able to fly into airports and leave without going through customs. Mullin points out that Democrats are also refusing to fund CBP. “It’s something we’re looking at,” Mullin said.
