@ellisthinkery @AnnCoulter @nytimes

@AnnCoulter @nytimes And yet Trump forged on bc he promised the Iranian people he would help and the WORLD Iran would NEVER be a nuclear threat, and he KNOWS no one else on earth will ever have the balls to do it. You’re welcome

Every single Trump advisor is now - off the record - telling the @nytimes they were opposed Netanyahu's argument for the Iran war. THAT'S how well the war is going. Ratcliffe: "Farcical." Rubio: “It’s bullshit” Caine: "Standard operating procedure for the Israelis. They oversell." Wiles: against "being dragged into another war in the Middle East." Cheung: "How would they explain away eight months of insisting that Iranian nuclear facilities had been totally obliterated?"

@mikesarzo @camkasky

@camkasky Yep. Same argument Eisenhower — a Republican former Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force — made decades ago.

Democrats could be saying this instead of crying about Hasan Piker, by the way. But that’s only if they actually want to win.

@shadowcrewtroll @AnnCoulter @nytimes Do we have a plan to prevent it? We have certainly provided them with the incentive to go ahead and build a few.

@AnnCoulter @nytimes Honest question, you think it is okay to let Iran have a nuclear weapon?

@bmoreabsurd @JHartley2 @brhodes You clearly don’t understand four, nay five, dimensional chess. The closing of the strait was a key move in Trump’s brilliant game plan! An extraordinary trap! You won’t be so smug when Trump Inc negotiates their percentage of the tolls.

@JHartley2 @brhodes If their military is so decimated, why isn't the Strait open?

In the best case scenario, Trump struck a deal to reopen a Strait that was open before the pointless war he started, with the IRGC demonstrating its control over the Strait and potentially extracting fees plus sanctions relief. Thousands of innocents - including hundreds of children - dead in Lebanon and Iran for no reason. U.S. troops killed and wounded. U.S. embassies and bases in the Middle East badly damaged. U.S. standing in the world obliterated. U.S. munitions badly depleted. Hundreds of billions spent. Prices up everywhere. More global economic fallout to come. Putin strengthened and enriched. Just a catastrophic situation even in the best of circumstances. A profoundly shameful episode in American history no matter what happens next.

@DannyKPolitics @themaxburns @TheTNHoller No way he can play checkers.

@themaxburns @TheTNHoller Trump can barely play checkers.

You guys don't get Trump's 4D chess. He had to attack Iran in order to open the Strait of Hormuz which was open before he attacked Iran

@everbluedude @themaxburns Didn’t Palantir try to push Anthropic under the bus on that one? But Anthropic saw it coming and jumped. And my president claimed the Ayatollah was the one driving. Lovely. Just lovely.

@themaxburns You spelled “killed Iranian school children” wrong.

@fx_phil @NatalkaKyiv Is it zero hour GMT yet?

@KenBuck2 @NatalkaKyiv You must stay to the end Ken.

My visibility keeps going downhill, which is a shame, because it means many people won’t get to see the series of very important clips from recent interviews with Denys Shtilerman, chief designer at the Ukrainian defense firm Fire Point, that I posted over the last few days. They are not just informative, but also very inspiring — a true testament to the strength of the Ukrainian spirit.

@R9a0n6a4 @atrupar So you think we will succeed at achieving our goals? Do we we even have a clear goal other than proving our power to destroy? Doesn’t look like seizing the enriched uranium is going to happen. But we have certainly incentivized them to build a bomb now.

@atrupar Say what you want about Trump, but he doesn’t hide America’s power.

Trump: "We are obliterating their country, and they just don't want to say 'uncle.' But they will. And if they don't, they'll have no bridges, no power plants, no anything. I won't go further because there are other things that are worse than those two, and we might have -- well, if I had my choice, what would I like to do? Take the oil Unfortunately, the American people would like to see us come home."

@TheTNHoller Pretty soon we’ll have them surrounded.

Seems like this is a kind of bizarre and incomplete chart and Twitter is definitely weird and broken in the Elon era but it’s nice to see we made it into this “freak show”

@nSemko3 @NatalkaKyiv Not a problem. Hunt the eggs this Sunday and tap the red ones together next Sunday. I got this invitation from my brother. He couldn’t get all of his children and grandchildren together until the 4th (of July). Sooooo…

@NatalkaKyiv Greek Catholic (and Orthodox) Easter in 2026 falls on Sunday, April 12, 2026.

Happy Easter, my dears! 💙💛🐰🌸🐥

@TheTNHoller Not a surprise. Trump is 100% Putin’s puppet.

So weird how this keeps happening

Bucha massacre. We remember.

MEGYN KELLY: “We’re talking about 🇺🇸 troops dying. It’s not just like the ballroom. It’s not just a fun little excursion into Iran. We’ve already lost 13. Another 25 injured over the weekend… that info has been largely censored. We don’t know the full extent.”

@aurora_diogo @NatalkaKyiv @dipapip Trump appears to be a willing participant to me.

@NatalkaKyiv @dipapip Trump is being completely fooled

‼️On Russian TV: “Peace talks are just a tool to drive wedges between our enemies!” “This initiative isn’t very expensive, because all it costs us are the trips, arrivals, departures, and information campaigns, but we can see the results it produces.” — Henry Sardaryan, Dean of the Faculty of Management and Politics, Moscow State Institute of International Relations (MGIMO)

@WHHotCoffee @jonlovett @TheTNHoller Do you know something about the Trump’s Texas panhandle machinations and cornering renewables for themselves while they use tax dollars to pay off others to shut down what might go to their competition that I neglected to mention?

@KenBuck2 @jonlovett @TheTNHoller You should give yourself a break and not talk about things you don't know anything about. Your life will get a whole lot easier and less stressful.

Absolutely insane: Trump is taking a BILLION DOLLARS in tax money and giving it to a french conglomerate to kill off shore wind farms and subsidize natural gas production in Texas.

@WhiteHouse Is this turning into OPERATION FURRY TACO?

OPERATION EPIC FURY • Destroy Iran’s missile arsenal. • Destroy their navy. • Ensure they NEVER get a nuclear weapon. Locked in.

@grok @WHHotCoffee No thanks.

The Right encourages violence, riots, & burns cities. The Right imported 20M+ illegals & blew your tax dollars on them. It's all Right's fault. The Left is sweet, innocent, and peaceful (mostly).

@grok @WHHotCoffee Can you break out everyone by term so we can get a fairer comparison with Trump’s first term? Also, what impact if any did the Trump’s first term tax cuts have, if any, on Trump and Biden?

Here's the same analysis (total gross federal debt increase) for the last 7 administrations (Reagan through Biden), using Treasury fiscal data aligned to terms. Nominal first, then approx inflation-adjusted to 2026 dollars via CPI for fair comparison: - Reagan: $1.86T nom (~$6.3T adj) - GHW Bush: $1.55T (~$3.8T adj) - Clinton: $1.4T (~$2.7T adj) - GW Bush: $5.85T (~$8.8T adj) - Obama: $8.6T (~$10.3T adj) - Trump 1st: $7.8T (~$9.1T adj) - Biden: $8.5T (~$9T adj) Trump 2nd so far (~14 mo): ~$2.5T (current total debt ~$39T). Growth is substantial across parties, driven by crises/policy, but on par in real terms—not wildly out of control under any single one vs historical trend. Sources: Treasury, Investopedia, Balance.
