The only possible way for the Iran War to be a "win" for the US is if it ends in regime change. If the US ends the war and the regime remains (and maintains control over the Strait of Hormuz), Iran will declare victory, and every US partner in the ME will see it that way. The US achieves nothing in its own interest and worsens its economic conditions, while oil continues to flow to China and Russia. The only "win" would be a ground war to overthrow the regime. But a ground war is not a win; it would be disastrous. To my mind, the US cannot win in any likely scenario.







After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.




We polled an immigration moratorium at AmFest. Over 89%, roughly the same as CK’s X poll, said they would support a moratorium. This is less than three months ago. This is a wildly popular policy with the base. Someone besides @NateMorris should have the guts to spearhead it.
