- Our War Powers Resolution directing the President to remove our armed forces from Iran just passed the House! I donβt expect the President to be swayed by this, but the representatives of the people have spoken on his unwise and illegal war.
- Gas is clocking in at $1.50 a gallon higher than it was 3 months ago. Hereβs the debate inside the House Republican majority:
- A must read article on Americaβs new senior intelligence official in which our hero pushes meme stocks, invents a fantastical 50 year mortgage and encounters a large green dildo. We used to be a serious country.
- The World: βTulsi Gabbard as Americaβs senior intelligence official??? She of conspiracy theories, UFOs, and Basher al-Assad??? Canβt be!!!β Trump: βHold my beerβ

Iβm so confused.If a deal is struck to end the Iranian conflict because it is believed that the Strait of Hormuz cannot be protected from Iranian terrorism and Iran still possesses the capability to destroy major Gulf oil infrastructure, then Iran will be perceived as being a dominate force - Jim Himes πΊπΈπΊπ¦ reposted
The Strait of Hormuz was open and not controlled by Iran before Trump launched his war against Iran. - Watching people with triple digit IQs take solace in the fact that our military broke a lot of their stuff isβ¦really something.
