@chad_lanyon It’s an international border checkpoint. It’s a simple “yes or no,” not a rectal exam.
Of course you can say no, but if you’re a citizen, why would you make it harder for yourself?

@allenanalysis @Suzierizzo1 Today is the anniversary of Lee’s surrender to Grant at Appomattox. Hard to believe Trump’s SIL is the best American for this negotiation.

🚨 Trump just dispatched Jared Kushner to negotiate the end of the Iran War.
Not a diplomat. Not an elected official. Not a general.
His son-in-law.
The same man whose fund accepted $2 billion from Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund — a country with direct financial stakes in how this war ends and who controls the region after it does.
Jared Kushner will sit across from foreign governments this weekend and decide whether American soldiers keep dying.

@JayinKyiv @1zzyzyx1 Good, but that’s still a 30% chance of Viktor winning.

The Republicans now own the Iran war.

BREAKING: House Republicans block the Democrats’ attempt to pass an Iran War Powers Resolution—refusing even to allow a vote. During a pro forma session, Rep. Glenn Ivey sought unanimous consent to advance the measure. Presiding GOP Rep. Chris Smith ignored the request and abruptly gaveled out.

Hungary is:
- the poorest country and the most corrupt country in the EU.
- about the size of Pennsylvania, but 4-times poorer.
- a good example of failure.
- the example the Heritage Foundation used to write Project 2025.
Do we want to be like Hungary?
Apologies to @stengel

🇺🇦👀Zelensky: If sanctions on Russian oil were lifted because of the war in the Middle East, will US sanctions be reimposed now that there is a ceasefire? We will just have to wait and see.
In my opinion, Russia has deceived the Americans again – deceived the President of the United States. The Russians lied about the role of their oil supplies in maintaining the stability of oil markets. If the US reimposes sanctions, that will be fair. But if not…
We heard that Russia wanted the Americans to buy certain energy assets in Europe that belong to Lukoil. I ask myself the question: “If I want to sell energy assets that are under sanctions, what do I do?” I come up with a scheme to lift the sanctions. How else could I sell them?

BREAKING CBS:
Survivors of the deadliest Iranian attack on U.S. forces since the war began have disputed the Pentagon's description of events and said their unit in Kuwait was left dangerously exposed when six service members were killed and more than 20 wounded.
The members disputed the description of events from Pete Hegseth.

So here are Iran’s peace terms, published in the Wall Street Journal.
Non-aggression guarantee. Control of the Strait. Uranium enrichment rights. All sanctions lifted. UN resolutions scrapped. IAEA resolutions scrapped. Compensation payments for war damage. US forces out of the region. And a ceasefire covering Israel and Hezbollah as a bonus.
Iran entered this war with none of that. Iran is leaving with all of it.
Meanwhile the United States got a two-week trial of a strait that was already open.
Masterclass, they said.
