Trump in his NBC interview says he pushed for stronger language in his Iran deal to get the word "acquire" in relating to Iran's vow (which it has always claimed) never to develop nuclear weapons. That wording was already in the opening pages of the JCPOA.

“WHEN WE DO WIN!”
Eberechi Eze last month: “I’m not too interested in what people think & how they feel about us winning. WHEN we do win, it will be down to everyone else to deal with that.” 🔮🏆

Bill Pulte is a second rate political hack.
Trump housing director Bill Pulte: "I do believe that Lisa Cook will eventually be indicted, and if she is, that would give the ability to fire her for cause"

The illegal "Desantis Dummymander" in Florida could very well come back to bite Republicans and help Dems win an even bigger majority in November.

Amazing how fast the US has swung from hyping the "trillions" it was going to get from the oil sheiks and Asia ... to talking about providing those same countries with billions in bailouts (swaps ... ) 1/

This right here is critical.
Replying to @ka_grieco
10/ The throughline across all of this: the Pentagon is presenting outputs, not outcomes. Facilities struck, percentages degraded. The operational questions (what can Iran still do, where, at what altitude, and how fast can it reconstitute) remain largely unanswered.

In the best case scenario, Trump struck a deal to reopen a Strait that was open before the pointless war he started, with the IRGC demonstrating its control over the Strait and potentially extracting fees plus sanctions relief. Thousands of innocents - including hundreds of children - dead in Lebanon and Iran for no reason. U.S. troops killed and wounded. U.S. embassies and bases in the Middle East badly damaged. U.S. standing in the world obliterated. U.S. munitions badly depleted. Hundreds of billions spent. Prices up everywhere. More global economic fallout to come. Putin strengthened and enriched. Just a catastrophic situation even in the best of circumstances. A profoundly shameful episode in American history no matter what happens next.

WSJ posting Iran's 10 points, from Nour News. #2 Continuation of Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz. #3 Acceptance that Iran can enrich uranium for its nuclear program. Is this what we want?

Meanwhile:
Treasury announces it has removed from its sanctions list Mikhail Mikhaylovich Zadornov, who was designated under Biden's EO on Russian election interference and "harmful foreign activities" of the Russian Federation, although he was sanctioned in 2022 ofac.treasury.gov/recent-act…

He wasn’t wearing a hat?
Why is this night different from all other nights? It's not. Trump didn't say in his speech anything he didn't say over the last several days

Iran has more uranium at higher levels of enrichment because Trump tore up the 2015 nuclear agreement! Had we stayed in the JCPOA, they would not have it today.

The only difference between Trump’s speech tonight and the video he released 32 days ago? He wasn’t wearing that goofy hat and gas is $4.06 per gallon.

DEFINITELY NOT!
From @TheAthletic: For 40 years, Duke has been college basketball’s most polarizing team. People love to hate Duke. But has Duke basketball become less hateable? Perhaps, maybe, even likable? nyti.ms/47jRjJy

The stupidity of this war and open flailing of the Trump administration to deal with the fallout on full display.
BREAKING: US Treasury eases oil sanctions on Iran, including permiting the sale of Iranian crude and refined products into the United States. Scott Bessent calls it a "narrowly tailored, short-term authorization permitting the sale of Iranian oil currently stranded at sea."

And now Trump is easing sanctions on Russia, further rewarding Iran’s main allies at the expense of America’s interests and Ukraine’s safety.
the straits of hormuz aren’t completely closed. iranian tankers are still passing through—bringing oil to china and oil revenue to the islamic republic. the united states could stop them. but that would antagonize china and further escalate the war. so…here we are.
