Unleash The Disease, Sell the Cure
So SPLC was really funding the KKK and the Democratic Socialists?
This makes a ton of sense. So much of the "chaos" we see in the US is just folks doing dumb shit to protect jobs and funding rackets.
I'm a fiend for mojitos.

A Middle East Round Up No One Asked For
I wish all the critics of the Iran war would contend with the main issue - Trump clearly thought Iran was close to making a nuke. Why does no one address it in the discouse? Do they believe that Iran wasn't close to making a nuke? Or, it that it doesn't matter if Iran makes a nuke. Or, do they argue now Iran is now even closer to making a nuke? Since no one talks about it, I can't really assess their point.
Yes, Israel wants to undermine and destroy the societies that define themselves as in opposition to the Israeli state. A lot of folks like to rebrand this as genocide. Uh...no...they just want their enemies to be weaker. Anyone would. Plenty of countries like Saudi, Egypt, and Jordan shifted how they engage with Israel and Israel leaves them completely alone. That's called evidence! And don't give me the Palestinians were there before nonsense. 75 years ago, maybe. But these days? Come on...
Good Work, If You Can Get It
Obamas part ways with Netflix, pocket 40 million. For what content exactly?
Chimp Civil War
Has anyone looked into their iPhone usage as a potential cause? Systemic racism? Economic inequality?

Mt. Rainer can rarely be seen, even from up close. She's a big giant mystery wrapped in a riddle.
American Politicians
Although Reagan was President when I was young, I have no memory of his impact as a politician. So in my lifetime, I rank Bill Clinton as the best "politician" I've ever seen. The guy could sell ice to an Eskimo. He was a sleazebag and yet, you could still feel like - there's more good than bad here. Now, I voted for Obama twice and "like" the guy, but he was more of a symbolic figure than an old-fashioned "politician." Nor did he seem to like the whole thing much or be very good at it. I still can't tell you a signature accomplishment of Obama other than Obamacare. He has signature "positions," but not accomplishments.
But I have to say...time will only tell...but Trump - as a politician - is getting up there with Clinton. This is the most peak Trump post I've ever read.
China is very happy that I am permanently opening the Strait of Hormuz. I am doing it for them, also - And the World. This situation will never happen again. They have agreed not to send weapons to Iran. President Xi will give me a big, fat, hug when I get there in a few weeks. We are working together smartly, and very well! Doesn’t that beat fighting??? BUT REMEMBER, we are very good at fighting, if we have to - far better than anyone else!!! President DJT
It completely embodies Trump. It's simultaneously nonsensical, grammatically incorrect, absurd, hopeful, pessimistic, and yet probably the best we can do given the constraints of the world at the moment. Also hilarious.
Not Showering Himself in Glory
JD Vance failing on this Iran negotiation doesn't bode well for his Presidential ambitions. Rubio pulling ahead. Maybe JD can be VP for 12 years.
Forget Trump For A Minute
And just look at the issues. Iran is holding the world hostage over nuclear material. It's that simple. They want a bomb, and won't give up the quest. And to achieve it, they will hold the world economy hostage. Those are the sticking points. So the options are:
1) Allow Iran to develop the bomb. And BTW, every single far-leftist and anti-Israel commentator secretly really wants this outcome. Don't believe otherwise.
2) Do what Trump is doing: attempting to negotiate and not giving in.
3) Overthrow the IRGC, also called the Israel plan
What are the other options?
If there was such a thing as a global order, we'd be all be working together to overthrow the IRGC so long as they threaten the straits.
This Will Sound Crazy
But Trump deserves some credit for backing down.
Everyone says this is a win for Iran. I don't think most of these people have any clue whatsoever, but are paid to talk out loud and thus must say something. I would not overestimate their takes. Like with most things, time will tell...
Wait...What?
Gavin Newsom's wife killed her own sister with a golf cart? And thinks prisoners in San Quentin are in jail for accidents? What the hell is going on here?
