It would be much cheaper to simply increase self-deportations by debanking illegals, going after businesses and landlords, and heavily taxing remittences
Laura Ingraham@IngrahamAngle

“$18K PER DEPORTATION” @SecMullinDHS: “It costs about $18,225 per person to deport.” “Multiply that by MILLIONS—it’s staggering.” “Why so high? Asylum claims, attorneys, clogged courts.” “That’s the system we’re dealing with.”

There are people in this country from El Salvador who’ve been under Temporary Protected Status since 2001—25 years. El Salvador is the safest country in the Western Hemisphere. It has the lowest homicide rate in the Western Hemisphere. Why are these people still here?

@streiffredstate @phildstewart It means Iran doesn't need to mothball its pumping capacity, allowing it to quickly resume normal operations after the United States and Israel agree to its conditions for peace.

(Reuters) - Iran can withstand a complete halt ​in oil exports of up to two months before being forced to curb production, ‌analysts said, after the U.S. began blocking shipping in and out of the country's ports on April 13. With its exports blocked, Iran faces having to divert crude ⁠into onshore storage tanks. Once those tanks are filled, the OPEC member would be required to curb ​upstream output. Consultancy FGE NextantECA estimates Iran has about 90 million barrels of available onshore crude storage capacity, ​out of total capacity of roughly 122 million barrels.

@dbates71 @phildstewart Iran was not struggling to make ends meet during the past 6 weeks. They received an enormous windfall from charging tolls in Hormuz and the sanctions waiver.

This means UAE's Fujairah—a major global oil storage/export hub outside the Strait of Hormuz—now has critically low inventories (products like fuel oil, diesel). First time below 10M barrels in 9 years signals tight regional supply, likely from ongoing Middle East disruptions (geopolitical flows rerouted, recent port attacks). Bullish for oil prices: less buffer means higher volatility and potential spikes if demand stays strong or more issues hit. Markets are watching closely.

@gummibear737 If Europeans are hypocrites, then why would a GCC self-embargo motivate Europe to do anything, but pressure the Israel-USA coalition to capitulate?

Aimen, who represents the GCC perspective, nails it here and better explains my frustration with European hypocrisy over Iran better than I’ve been able to articulate thus far The analogy of the situation with Russia and the situation with Iran is (objectively) spot on
Aimen Dean@AimenDean

I genuinely don’t know whether to laugh or lose my mind anymore at this European hypocritical double standards. When it comes to Vladimir Putin, suddenly it’s Churchillian resolve. No compromise. No dialogue. Arm Ukraine to the teeth, sanction everything that moves, wreck your own energy security if necessary - because tyranny must be confronted. Fine. I actually respect the consistency of that … in isolation. But then you turn around and lecture us - us - the Gulf monarchies, Jordan and Israel, about showing restraint with Tehran? About dialogue? About coexistence? Are you serious? For forty years - forty bloody years - this regime has been waging a shadow war across the region. Militias, proxies, sleeper cells, terror networks, destabilizing entire countries - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen - and threatening the Gulf monarchies, Jordan, and Israel nonstop. This isn’t theoretical. This isn’t abstract. This is lived reality. And yet here come Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and the rest of the European choir, gently advising us to calm down, de-escalate, and - what was it again? - “give diplomacy a chance.” Diplomacy with who, exactly? With a system that has built its entire regional strategy on plausible deniability and proxy terror violence? You were willing to absorb inflation, energy shocks, and political backlash at home to confront Moscow. You made that choice. You said: this is the price of standing up to a tyrant. So don’t come here and tell us - after decades of being on the receiving end - that we should just sit down, smile politely, and “coexist.” Either you believe in confronting tyranny everywhere .. or you don’t. Macron, Starmer, rest of EU leaders and top bureaucrats should just STFU and spare us the self righteous sanctimonious lectures!🤐🤫

Why has the Save America Act virtually disappeared from the national conversation? I've been really busy and maybe I'm missing it, but it seems to me that nobody is talking about this since Congress came back from their undeserved vacation. We can't let this die!

🚨 Report on an Iranian news channel: Iran will use alternative ports, instead of those located in southern Iran, to bypass the US blockade of Hormuz

@neoavatara There are stretches where it really makes sense — the same stretches where HSR makes sense. Boston-DC, Chicago-STL, Houston-Dallas are the easy ones. LA-SF would work if not for those pesky mountains.

@gummibear737 @AstorAaron The whole point of Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is to motivate Europeans and Asians to resolve their problem by persuading the United States to agree to Iran's terms. This strategy works or doesn't work without regard to GCC's decision to self-embargo.

@Warp_Reality @AstorAaron The GCC is threatening the world to resolve the problem of the Strait So if Iran insists on going down this path then the Europeans and Asians will have to mobilize their resources and help resolve the problem because they can't afford to see world lose 22% of oil/LNG

Trump is right when he says the Iran War is pretty much over, and it's because Iran has basically lost any and all leverage over the Strait of Hormuz (as well as its serious looming economic crisis) There's a small (but bombshell) detail from the ceasefire negotiations in Islamabad that has been unreported by the MSM, but was just broken by @aimendean...and it means that the war is probably done. If you don't know who Aimen is, he's the most insightful and credible analyst of the Middle East I have found to date He reports that this emerged at the negotiations this weekend and I quote: "The Saudis stood up for the whole GCC against this (Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz). And in fact, they threatened the Iranians that doing so would mean that we (the entire GCC) are not going to export a single drop of oil or LNG, forever, as long as you are in control of this. So technically, it's the GCC telling the world and especially the European Union that we're going to impose an embargo on the rest of the world if the rest of the world is not going to enforce international law when it comes to the Strait of Hormuz" So the GCC is ready to take 22% of global oil and LNG offline...and not just what transits the Strait of Hormuz, but all energy production. This means that Iran has basically lost all the leverage it ever had with regards to the Strait of Hormuz This is why the US doesn't have to move a muscle to open the Strait and why Iran's rhetoric has become far softer in recent days. Nothing is guaranteed, but the Iranians have almost no cards at this point...which is why Trump is so confident that the Iran War is pretty much over The Europeans could learn a thing or two from the GCC podcasts.apple.com/be/podcast/ame…

@gummibear737 @AstorAaron Why does Iran need the GCC to threaten an embargo before opening the strait? Isn't the whole point of closing the strait to blockade GCC exports?

@JewishWarrior13 Where are the ports? It seems like all oil flows through the same location- Persian Gulf, Straits of Hormuz and Gulf Oman which are all connected. The Caspian Sea is not realistic given the location of the oil fields.
