"Watch one thing this week: Ships through Hormuz --Not statements --Not markets If flows don’t recover, the system tightens further -- necessarily" I hate to bring X here, but it's silly to discuss any of this disaster without this context that I'm not seeing this clear anywhere else

NEW: Archbishop Paul Coakley, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, responds to Trump’s post attacking Pope Leo. Says he is “disheartened” and argues that Leo is “not a rival” but rather “the Vicar of Christ who speaks from the truth of the Gospel." www.usccb.org/news/2026/ar...

Right next to the microphone, too

Reupping this cause it’s evergreen and I feel better knowing someone out there called him out like this

Here he is tonight. Working hard to end his War in Iran and make life more affordable for Americans like he promised.

The important thing is that our president is at a UFC match

Oh my God.

We’re about to pay Iran $6 billion to re-open the thing that was open before the war. Art of the deal, baby.

“Make (Every Other County Except) America Great Again”

There's growing disquiet in the military. The Iran war made it worse flip.it/jO.oys

Wow. To see it visually like this.

Reminder

Well just leave this here, sweet pea

Melania Trump: I was not a participant, was never on Epstein's plane, never visited his private island. I have never been legally accused or convinced of a crime in connection with Epstein's sex trafficking, abuse of minors, and other repulsive behavior

Melania Trump: Epstein was not alone. I call on congress to provide the women who have been victimized by Epstein with a public hearing specifically centered around the survivors. Give these victims the opportunity to testify under oath in front of congress with the power of sworn testimony.

Dear G!  How are you?  Nice story about J. E. in New York mag, you look great on the picture. I know you are very busy flying all over the world. How was Palm Beach? I cannot wait to go down. Give me a call when you are back in NY. Have a great time! Love, Melania

This is so well done. 👌

You're probably gonna see a lot of this photo today, so just a reminder that it's fake

Subramanyam: She has a lot of power here. Her husband is the president and he's what's in the way of releasing the rest of the files. If she wanted to do right by the survivors, then do what they're asking you to do, which is release the rest of the files.

America first?

The Pakistani Prime Minister who was the intermediary for the ceasefire tweeted yesterday that it included Lebanon

Six minutes apart!

Good moment to read essay by Alberto Mora (Navy's General Counsel under W. Bush) On why a law passed in 2023, with strong bipartisan backing, prevents NATO withdrawal. Trump would need two-thirds of Senators or a new law. Mora: www.justsecurity.org/128930/prese...

EGYPT'S FOREIGN MINISTRY SAYS ISRAEL'S ATTACKS ON LEBANON ON WEDNESDAY AFTER IRAN-U.S. CEASEFIRE REFLECT 'PREMEDITATED INTENT' BY ISRAEL TO UNDERMINE REGIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL EFFORTS TO REDUCE ESCALATION

A strategic defeat. Trump and Hegseth are declaring mission accomplished. Hegseth and Caine speaking of Epic Fury in the past tense. How does this pass the laugh test when the parties haven't even arrived at a settled agreement? Iran's new chokehold on Strait of Hormuz.⤵️

It is hard to capture what a sweeping strategic defeat the war in Iran has been for the United States. I’m going to thread here some of the posts today that try to capture those effects. Here’s the first:

Farr Macro:

The ceasefire gives Iran control over the Strait of Hormuz, which it did not have before Trump launched the war. The regime is still in place, it still has enriched uranium, the capability to shoot missiles at drones at its neighbors. What, other than chaos, did Trump achieve?

Iran War is over. Iran won.

Trump is so weak.

“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” -Trump Article III The following acts shall be punishable: (a) Genocide; (b) Conspiracy to commit genocide; (c) Direct and public incitement to commit genocide; (d) Attempt to commit genocide; (e) Complicity in genocide.

This man is still serving in Congress with the support of Mike Johnson.

A Reddit user has meticulously kept a diary of Trump’s daily victory claims. It should form part of every historical archive on the planet. Brace yourself, here goes 🧵👇

"Flatly illegal" Just Security co-editor-in-chief @tessbridgeman.bsky.social on CBS Sunday Morning - discussing President Trump's threat to attack all Iran's power plants. Notably followed here by Elliott Abrams on why it's simply counterproductive. @cbssundaymorning.bsky.social

Happy Easter

What a blubbering idiot.

Trump has insulted and tariffed his European allies, persuaded Denmark to prepare for a US invasion and, by pressuring Ukraine and not Russia, encouraged Putin to keep fighting. All of which he has forgotten. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Cult talk.

We are all hoping "it" happens soon. 😁

“He’s not a war hero. He is a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” -- President Donald J Trump, July 18, 2015

🚨 Iran reportedly shot down a USAF fighter jet near Tehran. Reports on the status of the crew are conflicting and unconfirmed.
