Japanese Reporter: "Why didn't you tell U.S. allies…like Japan, about the war before attacking Iran?"
President Trump: "We didn't tell anyone about it because we wanted SURPRISE. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?"
OMG
@sciencegirl An ad that’s a hundred and sixty years old and I want to mentor this guy for success.
I wonder what ever happened to him? Hopefully he found Mrs Right and had a gaggle of children
Just watched the tape of every single snap of new #Vikings QB Kyler Murray in 2025:
Pros:
🏈Concerns about passing from the pocket are overblown; throws looked on schedule and very few purely inaccurate balls
🏈Rarely got hit when leaving the pocket and scrambling; natural instinct to avoid contact and get down/run out of bounds
🏈Showed lots of anticipation key downfield throws, some for scores
🏈Didn't force the ball downfield too much, knew when to tuck and run and when to trust his arm for the most part
🏈Only one true interception came against Seattle; receiver drops led to other picks/missed big plays
Cons:
🏈Will roll completely out of the pocket at times when he should've stepped up to reset or run upfield
🏈Batted balls seemed to be a little more of a concern in 2025 as compared to 2024, with most coming against Seattle
🏈Deep ball didn't look great so still fair to criticize that part of his game; didn't test it a ton in his small 2025 sample size
Other Takeaways:
🏈2025 Cardinals' OC Drew Petzing is nowhere near the playcaller KOC is, even with his flaws. Thankfully he's now the Lions' OC.
🏈Could be a "big" year for Hockenson and/or Aaron Jones/Prospect TBD, depending on how KOC adjust to Murray's "strengths"; high volume of targets went to tight end and runningbacks behind the line in Petzing's offense
🏈Could make the argument that the volume of passes to tight ends and runningbacks was to hide Murray's deep ball
🏈If this was "bad" Kyler, then an "average" Kyler Murray on the 2026 Vikings could make them a true force to be reckoned with if the defense plays to their standard.

🚨 WATCH: State Rep. Kristin Robbins exposes "webs of fraud" in Minnesota
"Her child care center was shut down on Feb. 10 of 2026, just a couple weeks ago. She was caught at the airport fleeing the country. That's how they arrested her.
"The next day, Feb. 11, a new child care center -- hers was called Future Leaders Early Learning Center -- opened on the same site called Leaders Childcare Center, and it is operating right now, getting paid by our taxpayers."
From my Post column:
The public doesn’t know precisely what’s in the presidential daily brief; they’ve only been declassified up to Jan. 20, 1977. But we can take a good guess at the gist, which is that lots of bad people around the world are trying to harm Americans. Just about every day, some new threat, some new weapons system is being developed, some new extremist faction is convinced they can get what they want by blowing up an airliner or a U.S. Embassy or a car bomb in Times Square.
If you see that sort of intelligence every day … how dovish can you remain? Would you rather be the president accused of being a warmonger, or be remembered as the president who hesitated as the threat grew closer? This many consecutive presidents being more hawkish than they intended suggests it’s not just a pattern in the character of the men who get elected. It’s just the nature of a violent world where many malevolent men think the answer to their problems is to attack Americans.
@RupertLowe10 Every country has the right to protect its citizens.
The real question is whether policy driven by anger reduces crime long-term — or just wins headlines. Sustainable safety requires more than just punishment.
Another day, another stabbing. We need to GET REAL - I am sick of it, we are all sick of it. This is not the Britain I want to live in.
The British state needs to brutally crack down on knife crime, and I mean brutally. That is exactly what Restore Britain would do. No more bullshit community work or soft punishment.
Enough is enough.
Instant deportation for foreign nationals found carrying.
Throw the book at the domestic ones.
Found unlawfully carrying? A Restore Britain Government would crack down on you in the harshest possible manner.
Minimum prison sentences - zero excuses.
The message has to be simple.
DO NOT CARRY A KNIFE UNLAWFULLY.
If you are found with a machete or whatever else, you will go to prison. End of story. Stop and search introduced on a proper scale. Accusations of racism would not stop us, I can promise you that.
Do that, on the scale required, and watch how quickly the knife crime epidemic stops.
There is finally a political party with the balls to do what needs to be done to protect the British people.
Restore Britain.
Summing up the British approach to Iran here:
1) US asks to use British bases, we say no.
2) Tell everyone we weren't involved and hope they leave us alone.
3) oh dear, they didn't leave us alone. They're shooting missiles at us.
4) claim that the only way to stop this and protect British citizens is to destroy the missiles at source.
5) allow the Americans to use our bases to destroy the missiles at source.
6) refuse to help destroy the missiles at source, even though we just said destroying them at source is the only way to end the threat to British citizens.
7) tell everyone we're not involved and hope they'll leave us alone.

This is how the Washington Post eulogized the dirt bag who murdered 40,000 innocent civilians this month. This is not satire:
"With his bushy white beard and easy smile, Ayatollah Khamenei cut a more avuncular figure in public than his perpetually scowling but much more revered mentor, and he was known to be fond of Persian poetry and classic Western novels, especially Victor Hugo’s 'Les Misérables.' ... Some Iranians who knew Ayatollah Khamenei before he became supreme leader described him as a 'closet moderate'' ...
