It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire.
1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.
we should make American voters get a tattoo on their arm that says DON'T TRUST THE REPUBLICAN PARTY because otherwise they're basically all that guy from Memento every second election cycle.
The secretary of defense saying we almost have cnn in our grasp is some dark, dark shit
Who says there's no strategy for the war? Checkmate, bloggers.
He's back, baby!
The Trump administration could really restore confidence by getting the entire Cabinet to ride a tanker through the Straits of Hormuz to show everyone how safe and easy it is now.
They could bring along a lot of MAGA influencers and Fox News hosts to broadcast it all live!

If your banking app starts to offer in-app gambling, and you don't move your money out of there that day, you should just fast forward to the stage when you sell your furniture and move back in with your parents.
Lucille Bluth was just a little early
what if we simply catapult the oil tankers over the mountains, bypassing the strait of hormuz entirely

Americans love bragging they can't be stopped from doing something that no one is stopping them from doing.
*Theyyyy* are.
You know who.
You mean, Jewish?

I wonder if he knows how the First Amendment starts
Yesterday I filmed several baby birds walking across a street directly at my camera and asked Bluesky to suggest music
Several dozen folks did

Top Ten James Bond one-liners
#10 Thunderball (1965) - James Bond wastes no time delivering his trademark wit after neatly dispatching a sneaking henchman with a speargun on the beach: “Get fucked, fucker.”
