Emblematic of #wheattour26. Most of the original tilllers dead from March freeze. Plants recovered as best as they could in drought situation. Later freezes cause white sterile heads. Hot and windy this week. Not many lives left.

Which Panican wants to hand me my “I told you so” award? Trump has been running the same negotiation playbook forever. Pressure, escalation, chaos… then leverage a deal. We’ve watched it happen again and again. This wasn’t complicated. It was basic pattern recognition. While some people were panicking, others were paying attention. Now we move to Phase 2. Iran is largely neutralized. The Strait is reopening. The war is de-escalating. Markets are already reacting. That’s not a small win—that’s a global reset. This forces movement everywhere else. Russia and Ukraine get pulled closer to a real negotiation. China has to think twice about Taiwan when the U.S. just proved it will apply overwhelming pressure when it matters. And for the first time in decades, there is a real path to stepping back from endless Middle East entanglements. Look at the region. It’s no longer just Israel. You’re seeing alignment across countries that historically were nowhere near each other. The world is safer today than it was yesterday—and it’s about to get even safer over the next few months as this locks in. And yes, let’s be very clear about this: This happened because of Donald Trump. Not the pundits. Not the podcasters. Not the panic merchants. Trump. Now comes the real opportunity. With global stability improving, we can finally refocus inward at full speed. Immigration, housing, affordability, healthcare, infrastructure, AI, rebuilding American strength where it actually matters. We are entering a new American era—economically, technologically, and yes, even in space exploration. This is what the start of a new frontier feels like. So here’s the assignment: Put your phone down. Go build something. Start a family. Create. Get outside. Do something real. Stop listening to the Panicans. Onward 🇺🇸

USA is in a vibe shift. It's now the age of heroes...and miracles. US hockey team takes Gold, US Military rescues pilots in Iran, Artemis II travels to Far Side of the Moon. Whether it's on ice, in air, or in space, Americans can do the impossible.

Trump is never backed into a corner. Trump never bluffs and he doesn't cave. How hard is this to understand? You all have had 11 years to figure this out and he wrote a freaking book on it. Trump starts every deal at the furtherest point he is willing to go. He will deal towards a more compromised position. If the other side gives up things, he will give up some of the stuff he doesnt really care about. (Idiots call this TACO instead of deal making either because they are too stupid to understand it, or think others are too stupid and they want to push a negative talking pt about the ultimate deal made.) Both sides continue until a deal is struck. If they cant come to any agreement, Trump will revert to his original position and go with that. Iran has 7 hours and 30 minutes to make a deal or they get blown back to the stone age. So far, the deal they are trying to make isn't enough for Trump to move from his original position if reports are correct. They need to give him something or he is fine with blowing them to hell.

“America is DECISIVELY WINNING the war on Iran in every measurable respect.” @CynicalPublius is correct. We are but @POTUS and PM @netanyahu shouldn’t stop short of a “decisive win.” That may take weeks but the mistake of 1991 cannot be repeated.
RE: The Way of War of Our Enemies In every hot war the United States has become involved in since the Korean War, we have enjoyed absolute tactical and operational dominance over our enemies. We win every tactical engagement, overwhelmingly. Operationally we can and do dominate any theater of our choosing. No one—and I mean NO ONE—can stand toe to toe with the US military. This has been true for decades. We’ve talked before about the elements of national power—the “DIME” (Diplomacy, Informational, Military, Economic). Our military power is unsurpassed. We are masters of diplomacy. We have the world’s strongest economy. So how do we lose? The INFORMATIONAL component. Our military opponents, from Ho Chi Minh to Osama bin Ladin, knew that the only way to defeat the USA is to demoralize the American populace such that it demands withdrawal and throws the then current Commander-in-Chief out of office. The ONLY way to defeat America militarily is to convince the American people that a war is unwinnable. The slow dribble of IED deaths in OIF was not actually targeting soldiers and Marines—it was targeting YOU, the American people. And CNN eagerly complied with death counts running across the bottom of the screen. The Tet Offensive? It was a decisive US victory that could have ended the Vietnam War in our favor. But Walter Cronkite instead declared the war lost, protests erupted nationwide, and the war was lost. The Highway of Death in Kuwait? We could have taken out Saddam Hussein in 1991 and never needed to go back in 2003, but international media made the attack on retreating Iraqis look “too cruel,” so we halted just short of the finish line. The strategic imperative of every one of America’s military enemies is to break the will of the American people with skewed information, propaganda, and extreme emphasis on America’s minor losses amidst overwhelming military victory. But the Ho Chi Minhs and Osama bin Ladins can’t do that by themselves. They need willing partners in the American media and government. And for Operation Epic Fury, boy oh boy do the Iranian mullahs have an over abundance of American morale killers to draw from in order to defeat America through the informational instrument of national power. Tucker Carlson. Senator Mark Kelly and the rest of the Seditious Six. CNN. ABC. NBC. CBS. NYT, WaPo. Pakistani bot armies on social media. X “influencers” like Cerno, Candace, MartyrMade and Ian Carroll. Every idiot claiming we are fighting “Israel’s war." There is an entire Army of American politicians and media figures who are willingly fighting Iran’s informational war on its behalf (and in some cases, at its behest). America is DECISIVELY WINNING the war on Iran in every measurable respect. Yet there are so many influential Americans who are desperately determined to make you believe otherwise. In days of old in non-US countries, such people would have been strung up for treason. Thankfully it’s 2026 and we have a First Amendment, so no one fear being treated in such a medieval manner. But we can still ostracize and ridicule such people and sources for the irreparable harm they are wreaking upon the USA as they do the bidding (intentionally or unintentionally) of Theo-fascist mullahs who are determined to set off a nuclear bomb so that the Twelfth Imam will arise from a well in Qom and precipitate the global apocalypse. We all need to choose sides. Are you with America, or are you with theologic-inspired, deliberate Armageddon? And anyone who chooses the latter needs to be the target of mockery, derision and clearly-stated facts disproving their lies. And if YOU are an American Patriot, you can fight that informational war on America’s behalf, right now, right here on social media, right there in your own living room. Your voice matters, and your voice is actually a part of the war. FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT.

I’ve seen a few claims making the rounds on the Big Beautiful Bill that require correction. The first is that it doesn’t “codify the DOGE cuts.” A reconciliation bill, which is a budget bill that passes with 50 votes, is limited by senate rules to “mandatory” spending only — eg Medicaid and Food Stamps. The senate rules prevent it from cutting “discretionary” spending — eg the Department of Education or federal grants. The DOGE cuts are overwhelmingly discretionary, not mandatory. The bill saves more than 1.6 TRILLION in mandatory spending, including the largest-ever welfare reform. A remarkable achievement. I’ve also seen claims the bill increases the deficit. This lie is based on a CBO accounting gimmick. Income tax rates from the 2017 tax cut are set to expire in September. They were always planned to be permanent. CBO says maintaining *current* rates adds to the deficit, but by definition leaving these income tax rates unchanged cannot add one penny to the deficit. The bill’s spending cuts REDUCE the deficit against the current law baseline, which is the only correct baseline to use. Another fantastically false claim is that the bill spends trillions of dollars. This is just completely invented out of whole cloth. This is not a ten year budget bill—it doesn’t “fund” almost any operations of government, which are funded in the annual budget bills (which this is not). In other words, if this bill passed, but the annual budget bill did not, there would be no government funding. Under the math that critics are using, if we passed a one paragraph reconciliation bill that cut simply 50 billion in food stamp spending, they would say the bill “added” trillions in spending and debt because they are counting ALL the projected federal spending that exists entirely outside the scope of this legislation, which is of course preposterous. The only funding in the bill is for the President’s border and defense priorities, while enacting a net spending cut of over 1.6 TRILLION dollars. The bill has two fiscal components: a massive tax cut and a massive spending cut.

My initial reaction to the Trump/Zelensky spat was based on the short clip. I've had a chance to watch the entire 53-minute press conference with Zelensky and Trump. It's painful but I take back what I said earlier. Zelensky decided to attack Vance unnecessarily. He totally messed this up. Yes, Vance played to the gallery afterwards but he was also correct: litigating this stuff in front of the media was really dumb. Really poor from Zelensky - I hope he can see sense, apologise and get a deal for his country. This was not smart.
