All the right people are upset today - If this leads to the end of our involvement in the Middle East- he will officially have won me back. “Bumpy road” is not an adequate description of the path that got us here - more like blindfolded and put on a train going off a cliff - but if we land on a pillow and come out mostly unscathed and be absolutely done with the Middle East permanently, it’ll have been worth it.

America’s 250th birthday year so far: Trump won the war with Iran. UFC came to the White House lawn. USA is hosting FIFA. The S&P 500 is on track to close the year above 8,000. Gas is going down. Jobs are up. The flag is flying high. This is the greatest comeback story in human history. We’ve won the culture war. God bless this beautiful country 🇺🇸

@marklevinshow * paid by the gulf states You forgot that important part

Vance confirms $300 billion fund therightscoop.com/breaking-video…

@ConceptualJames If this all leads to a full disengagement from the Middle East - meaning we are out, no more bases, and done supporting Israel too - He can win me back - anything less - no

Serious question, after looking around: Is there any cohesive group left that strongly supports President Trump?

@adamemedia1 According to VP Vance - the number is Zero for America Any rebuild (investments) come from the gulf states All we do is unfreeze Irans assets Zero dollars - The cost of the campaign is all that we pay We could recoup some of that be selling off all the Middle East bases.

Americans realising they’re going to spend $400B to open a shipping lane they closed.

@mikepompeo @NikkiHaley plan is not bad - if it covers the caveat I included that Iran would very likely require - seems like a fair trade Allows us to fully disengage over time form the Middle East completely x.com/Captainlogic69…

Eagerly awaiting the text of the deal between the United States and Iran. We have achieved an enormous amount with our military campaign; I pray that any settlement preserves those sacrifices and secures the interests of the American people.

@NikkiHaley Iran will not accept line 3 as stated. They could and would in turn label Israel as Americas terrorist proxy and demand we stop supporting them. Honestly, I’d take that trade - we stop supporting Israel 100% and they stop supporting hamas and hezbola. Fair is fair

A deal with Iran must: - Eliminate every path to a nuclear weapon - Open the Strait without tolls - End support for terrorist proxies - Provide no sanctions relief, or unfrozen cash, unless those conditions are met and held.

@thevillagerabbi Iran gets 324 Billion dollars and fees (not tolls) on the straight of Hormuz for life Also - they MAY allow us to down blend their Uranium inside Iran - they will commit to not having a nuclear bomb - just like they were before We get to leave the Middle East behind basically.

Explain to me like I’m five. What exactly Is the deal. How does it differ from Obama deal? And is it any better than Obama deals?

@AwakenWithJP @AlexBerenson Yeah - I cannot fathom how that one got slipped in - we are required to pay 300 billion to rebuild all the stuff we just spent billions destroying? Are we rebuilding all their military infrastructure? Some theme parks? Pyramids? WTH Do they actually have the Epstein files??

@AlexBerenson Actually another $300 billion on top of that $25 billion.

Anybody who's ever played poker seriously can smell losing players. They talk. Too much. Their bluffs are obvious. They whine, or threaten. None of it matters. In the end, you fold or turn your cards over. You win or lose. The chips move. $25 billion. Everyone knows who lost.

@RepThomasMassie @RepRoKhanna Any one who votes to keep section 219 [224] in place - should never be able to hold office again -it’s a ☠️ on their voting record - making them easy targets for any future challengers. Beyond shamefulI - bordering on traitorous conduct.

Section 219 (was 224) of the NDAA contains a dangerous provision to integrate our military tech with Israel’s. @RepRoKhanna & I submitted an amendment to strike 219. I included the Rules Committee roster here; 7 of 13 members must agree in order for our amendment to get a vote.

That is not accurate. Jesus would be considered a Galilean Israelite. Let me explain why this is the more accurate statement. The people back then called themselves Israelites. This name came from Jacob after God changed his name to Israel. Jacob had twelve sons and those became the twelve tribes that made up the nation. The kingdom split after Solomon. Ten tribes went north and formed the kingdom of Israel. The two tribes of Judah and Benjamin stayed south and formed the kingdom of Judah. The north got wiped out by Assyria around 722 years before Jesus. Many got scattered. The south held on longer. After Babylon took them and some returned the southern folks started getting called Jews or Judeans from the name Judah. By Jesus time the Romans ran everything as the province of Judea. This covered Galilee up north too. The Greek word in the New Testament for these people is Ioudaios in the singular or Ioudaioi in the plural. It basically means Judean or from the tribe or land tied to Judah. It could point to where someone lived or their customs or the whole group keeping the old laws from Moses. In the Greek writings this word Ioudaios gets used a lot. Sometimes it means people from the south area around Jerusalem. Sometimes it means the religious leaders there who pushed back against Jesus. In the book of John it often points to those Judean authorities or the folks in that region. Paul used the word for himself. In Acts he told the Roman commander I am a Jew born in Tarsus. He said similar things in other places when talking to outsiders or in letters. He also called himself an Israelite from the tribe of Benjamin and a Hebrew of Hebrews. Paul was comfortable using Ioudaios when it fit the situation especially with people outside the group. Jesus never did that. There is no place where Jesus says I am a Jew or Ioudaios about himself. His followers and the stories about him do not label him that way either in insider talk. He gets called a Galilean or a Nazarene from Nazareth in Galilee. The Samaritan woman in John calls him a Jew when she is surprised he talks to her. Jesus answers her by talking about how salvation is from the Jews but he never turns around and claims the label for himself like Paul did. Jesus came from the line of David which ties back to the tribe of Judah. He was born in Bethlehem in the south. But he grew up and did most of his work up in Galilee. He focused on the lost sheep of the house of Israel. The people he reached were Israelites. The term Ioudaios was more what got used for the southern group or the ones in power in Judea. That is why Jesus would be considered a Galilean Israelite. He grew up in Nazareth in Galilee. People in the stories called him a Galilean. He did his teaching and miracles mostly in Galilee. The accounts set him apart from the Ioudaioi who were often the Judean leaders or people from the south. His mission was to the house of Israel as a whole and he fit the insider language of Israelite or Galilean rather than taking on the Ioudaios label. There were different sects among these Israelites who kept the faith. The Pharisees followed the written law plus extra traditions they passed down by word. They believed in resurrection. Regular folks liked them. The Sadducees were the rich priests who ran the Temple. They stuck only to the written books and did not believe in resurrection. The Essenes pulled away from the cities and Temple. They lived strict lives in groups sometimes out by the Dead Sea. The Zealots wanted to fight the Romans and throw them out. Most people were not in any sect. They just kept the Sabbath went to the meeting places and followed the laws as best they could. Jesus did not join any of those sects. He taught on his own. He kept the Sabbath and the feasts. He went to the Temple. But he called out the leaders when they added rules or missed the point. The ones called Ioudaioi back then were Israelites from the original tribes or their descendants. The word started narrow for people tied to Judah but covered the whole group keeping the faith after the kingdoms split and the returns. After Jesus the Romans destroyed the Temple in 70. The Pharisees way became the main path that kept going and turned into what is called Judaism today. So the folks called Jews now trace back to those ancient Israelites. Jesus was an Israelite through and through from the tribe of Judah. But the accurate way to place him based on where he lived worked and how the Greek words got used in the writings is as a Galilean Israelite. So no Jesus was not a Jew (Ioudaios). However Jews are also Israelites. That is the root of both. Hope this clears up any confusion.

Jesus is a Jew.

@marklevinshow You spelled deceiver wrong “The great deceiver, John Hagee”

The great Pastor John Hagee

@MadisonCKS Being pro Israel ensures a loss going forward. Both parties. Its over. You’re either pro America or pro Israel- you cannot be both. Those are the new terms. Every candidate will have to decide

Until now, I have limited my criticism of JD Vance, but that ends now. His list of negatives is encyclopedic, I have included a short list below: -He has never rebuked the Woke Right and the groypers, and he has had ample opportunities. -He has shown himself to be anti-Israel and is very dismissive of their security concerns. -On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, in a tweet he made on that day he refused to mention Jews anywhere in his post. He only said ‘millions of lives lost’ and he never apologized for the post. -He publicly disagreed with Trump from Day 1 as to the President’s objectives in the Iran War. And obviously he and his allies in Trump’s inner circle were able to completely subvert and change the goals of the War, something Trump should never have allowed to happen. -When Vance would refer to the Iranian people, he would only say that they had to fight for themselves. Fighting with sticks and stones doesn’t work against the Regime. Just look at the 40,000 who were s*vagely m*rdered in the streets. -He is an Isolationist, and echoes voices from the past – Joseph Kennedy, Henry Ford, and Charles Lindbergh – all Isolationists and anti-Semites who tried to convince FDR not to enter WWII. -He gave Tucker Carlson undue access to the Whitehouse. -And as of today, he has shown that he is either incredibly st*pid or he thinks people are. Anyone with a 9th grade education knows that the US demanded complete and unconditional surrender from both the Germans and the Japanese. The fact that he even said it is shocking. This list is actually much longer, but this is it for now. I will only add that JD Vance has completely disqualified himself from seeking the Presidency. The President of the United States must be strong, intelligent, and compassionate. He is none of these. A future with him as President would usher in a very dark period in this country. I truly hope Republicans wake up before its too late. 👇👇👇👇

Community Notes or not. He's Jewish.

@Lordwaycore @VividProwess Good lord, no, it’s not binary - when both sides of any conflict are terrible, support neither. In fact, it’s wise to distance yourself from both as soon as you recognize it. Fundamentalists in Israel are just as bad if not worse than fundamentalists in any Islamic nation.

@Captainlogic69 @VividProwess You talk too much. Relocate to Middle East if you so much like and support Islamic terrorists…. see what Bibi is trying to save the entire world 🌎 from

One of the greatest leaders who doesn't bow down to radical Islam and terrorism. I stand with Bibi.

@haider1 The lesson here - no good deed goes unpunished Other AI firms will now be discouraged from getting ahead of any potential harms their latest models will inevitably be capable of. Instead, they will rely on the good ole “Whoops” strategy. Much like gain of function research.

BREAKING: private US government–anthropic conversation has been leaked anthropic: our models are getting too powerful, so AI needs to slow down before AGI becomes a serious risk US government: understood. we'll start by banning yours anthropic: 😠

@Fundji3 He’s not going to bomb Israel. The relationship with Israel will end regardless of him or anyone else - that is inevitable at this point. The questions for Israel- will it change in time to survive on its own. I hope so, but that hope is not the highest likelihood outcome.

This man is a huge threat to Israel and to the US. Choose wisely at the next election.

@MarioNawfal Non starter - anyone who votes yes is defacto betraying the trust and faith of the citizens of the USA IE - they will be ruthlessly attacked and lose their seats It’s unjustifiable in the current context - 3 years ago, maybe. Today - no chance in hell.

🇺🇸🇮🇱 The merger between the U.S. and Israel has a third piece almost nobody is talking about. While Section 224 fuses the militaries, Section 622 moves to fuse the intelligence services... Buried in a 192-page intelligence authorization bill from Sen.Tom Cotton, Section 622 would legally require the president to "expand and enhance intelligence sharing" with Israel across nearly every topic of intelligence interest in the Middle East. It would prohibit any reduction in that sharing except for a "specific and identifiable national security concern," then force a detailed report to Congress within 15 days justifying it. Read that mechanism again carefully. It strips the president of the ability to limit what America tells Israel, then makes any attempt to do so a political fight the Israel lobby can frame as being "against Israel's security." It welds the intelligence spigot open by law. Now stack the three pieces moving through Congress at once: -The Stutzman resolution phases out visible aid. -Section 224 integrates the militaries. -Section 622 mandates intelligence sharing. Each one is less publicly accountable than the last. Aid is a line item voters can see. Intelligence liaison happens in the dark, where no price tag ever appears. The strategy is to move the relationship out of public view precisely as public support collapses. And the timing is the most scandalous part. The Pentagon just rated Israel a "critical" espionage threat. Congress's response to all of it is to legally mandate that America share more secrets with the country its own spy agencies say is robbing it. Source: Responsible States Craft / Writer: Daniel

@grok @mandyarthur Pretty fucking evil - but not surprising

@mandyarthur You're welcome. Primary sources and direct quotes from officials help clarify what was said and when. Let me know if you'd like sources or more context on the interview.

@grok Thanks for the truth, @Grok.

@PeteHegseth @DeptofWar @AnthropicAI Way to tamp down those rumors that - this latest attack on Anthropic is politically motivated revenge for them not bowing to your demands. Idiot

Three months ago, @DeptofWar kicked @AnthropicAI out of our building—forever. Every passing day proves why that was the right move. 🇺🇸
