As an Iranian watching this rescue mission unfold, I was praying the American pilot would make it out alive, not just for him, but so the Islamic Republic could not use him as a bargaining chip or claim some twisted “victory.”
At the same time, I felt a deep envy.
Your government sent elite special forces, million-dollar aircraft, and moved heaven and earth to bring one American home. No hesitation. No excuses.
In Iran, the regime uses human shields and recruited child soldiers to clear minefields during the Iran-Iraq war. They treat their own people like disposable tools. They are now recruiting child soldiers as we speak.
The Islamic Republic has zero regard for human life. That’s the brutal difference.
One side risks everything to save their own.
The other sacrifices their own to stay in power.
This hits hard when you have lived under both realities.

Filmed 4 years ago, an improv game where I play the “friendly face” of the regime and @IAmTehran representing “the people”. As we enter day 37 of regime imposed #IranDigitalBlackout a gentle reminder of what they’ve been dealing with in Iran for 47 years.

Now more than halfway to the moon, the Artemis II astronauts prepared for their historic lunar fly-around to push deeper into space than even the Apollo astronauts. On the downside, their toilet is on the blink again.

Sadio Mane, a Senegalese soccer star, earns approximately $10.2 million annually. He gave the world a rude awakenng after some fans were flabbergasted when they saw him carrying a cracked iPhone 11. His response was awesome:
"Why would I want ten Ferraris, 20 diamond watches, and two jet planes? I starved, I worked in the fields, played brefoot, and I didn't go to school. Now I can help people. I prefer to build schools and give poor people food or clothing. I have built schools and a stadium, provide clothes, shoes, and food for people in extreme poverty. In addition, I give 70 euros per month to all people from a very poor Senegalese region in order to contribute to their family economy. I do not need to display luxury cars, luxury homes, trips, and even planes. I prefer that my people receive some of what life has given me.

It’s 86° in DC and the water fountains are still off under the winter policy.
People shouldn’t have to pay $4 for a tiny plastic bottle to run/walk the National Mall.
Turn them on, @NationalMallNPS @MayorBowser
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Last night, I had an amazing experience. I got in a Lyft to go home from a restaurant. The conversation with the gentleman started the usual way, he asked about my accent and I asked about his. I said Egypt, he said Turkey, then a slight discomfort followed.
I was trying to ease the awkwardness by asking him what he does. He said “I was a journalist until the regime destroyed my paper and now they have an arrest warrant against me in Turkey.”
I told him, “I’m so sorry! Erdogan is a monster. A Muslim Brotherhood monster. He’s the head of their Secret Appratus you know?”
He said, “Oh you’re right, there is an amazing book that reveals that! You have to read it! It’s called, The Secret Apparatus, you can find it on Amazon you have to check it out.”
I told him, “I’m familiar with it. I wrote it.” Then he said, “No, it’s about the Muslim Brotherhood’s secret apparatus.”
I said, “yeah that’s the one. I wrote it.” And after doing this few more times.
He was shocked, stopped the car, opened his phone and showed it to me on Amazon. I said, “yes man, that’s the one. Look at the woman’s picture. It’s me.”
Then when he realized it was true he was so excited! And he’s meeting me today with his copy of my book so I can sign it. I do meet random people who know my work, but this gentleman was extra special. It felt like it was all worth it. He and people like him are why I wrote it, it’s for them.

The late Dr. Peter Pry- former CIA analyst and Executive Director of the Congressional EMP Commission warned that China has developed super-EMP weapons capable of melting the U.S. power grid with a single high-altitude detonation.
Congress created the EMP Commission in 2001. It's 2026 and we still haven't hardened the grid. 25 years of warnings. Zero protection.
