Dr. Robert Rabil on The Capitol Show:

“Trump is different — he has the stamina and real desire to become the peacemaker, delivering a historic Israel-Lebanon deal like the Abraham Accords.”

“Lebanon must now match bold words with real actions and strong leadership.”

“The old mantra ‘no peace without the Palestinian issue first’ is over. The region has moved on.”

A genuine window for peace, stability, and Lebanon’s rebirth.

Dr. Robert Rabil drops truth bombs on #TheCapitolShow: “Can the Lebanese Army replace Hezbollah in the South?”

“Peace with Israel is NOT a crisis it’s Lebanon’s chance to become the Switzerland of the Middle East again.”
“Herzog’s clear message: Israel wants peace, not more blood.” Step-by-step disarmament.

Rebuilding. Real sovereignty under Trump.

إيجاز استخباري عاجل:

حكومة بغداد تُشرعن أكبر عملية غسيل أموال لتمويل طهران عبر منصة "أور" الإلكترونية

فخامة الرئيس @realDonaldTrump
@USTreasury

نرفع إلى علم فخامتكم تطوراً مالياً بالغ الخطورة يمثل خرقاً علنياً وممنهجاً لسياسة "الضغط الأقصى" التي تنتهجها إدارتكم، حيث بدأت حكومة المحاصصة في بغداد برئاسة علي الزيدي بتنفيذ خطة إيرانية خبيثة لنهب ميزانية العراق وتحويل الدولار الأمريكي مباشرة إلى الخزينة الإيرانية تحت غطاء قانوني.
لقد أصدرت حكومة الزيدي قانوناً جديداً يمنح رواتب تقاعدية وتعويضات شهرية مستمرة بقيمة (مليون ومائتان ألف دينار عراقي) لكل عراقي غادر إلى إيران منذ عام 1979، واعتبار كل من مات هناك "شهيداً" تتقاضى عائلته نفس المبلغ. والأخطر من ذلك، هو قيام الحكومة بفتح منصة إلكترونية رسمية تُدعى (منصة أور) لاستقبال طلبات التقديم لضمان سرعة التنفيذ والتمرير.
فخامة الرئيس، إن الأبعاد الاستراتيجية لهذا الإجراء تتلخص في الآتي:

1 قوائم وهمية بالمليونين : ستعمد طهران إلى ضخ قوائم تضم ما بين مليون إلى مليونين من الأسماء الوهمية (لأشياء وأموات) لإجبار البنك المركزي العراقي على تحويل مئات الملايين من الدولارات شهرياً كرواتب تقاعدية تذهب مباشرة إلى حسابات الحرس الثوري الإيراني.

2 الالتفاف على الحصار : هذه الآلية المبتكرة تُعد الرئة المالية الجديدة التي أسستها طهران لتعويض خسائرها النفطية وتأمين تدفق مستدام للعملة الصعبة بعيداً عن الرقابة الفيدرالية التقليدية.

إن الاستجابة الفورية تقتضي إبلاغ النظام المصرفي في بغداد بأن إدراج منصة "أور" وحساباتها للتسويات المالية ضمن أنشطة الميليشيات سيؤدي فوراً إلى تجميد مبيعات النفط العراقي وعزل البنك المركزي العراقي عن نظام السويفت (SWIFT).

مع خالص الاحترام والتقدير،

سعد الشمري

في عصر الحرب الجيل الخامس، لم تعد المعارك تُشن بالصواريخ فقط، بل بالروايات والحسابات المزيفة والعمليات النفسية التي تستهدف الثقة والاقتصادات. تدرك الإمارات ذلك جيدًا. بينما يذعر الآخرون، تبني هي: موانئ عالمية المستوى، وريادة في الذكاء الاصطناعي، واستقرار لا يتزعزع، وثقة عالمية. مرنة في الأزمات، سمعة لا تُهز. هذا هو الأمن القومي الحقيقي. #UAE #FifthGenWarfare

In the age of 5th Generation Wars, missiles are no longer the main threat.
Fake narratives, bots & psychological campaigns are.

The UAE is targeted precisely because of its success; a global hub for trade, tech, AI, aviation & investment. But our response is clear; "We don’t just defend borders, we defend trust, Stability, Achievement and Resilience.
While others spread chaos, we build reality." @bilarakib

“Since I became governor, we’ve retired more than half of Florida’s historic debt.” — Ron DeSantis
“We didn’t accelerate a debt repayment program. We retired bonds early.”
“The previous record was $800 million a year. I did $3.5 billion in one year.”
“I vetoed 3% of the budget that the legislature did one year.”
“This budget… will be the fourth straight year of spending reductions in the state of Florida.”
“You can make choices. You can be fiscally responsible.”
“We’re lowering taxes and we still get this revenue coming in.”
“We’ve shown it can be done at the state level.”
“You’re never going to be able to solve it unless you have constitutional constraints on the ability of Congress to bankrupt the country.”
“If it’s just saying we’re going to go elect good people… that may work one or two years, but then the next Congress undoes it.”
“There have to be constraints and incentives to stop what we’ve seen happen.”
“Almost never would happen… we’d actually win those spending cut votes.”
“There’s going to be some people that get elected that want to do the right thing… that is never going to be a majority.”
“We were very close to passing this in the 90s — one vote away in the Senate.”
“Just imagine if this had passed… the whole fiscal trajectory of the country would be so much better right now.”
“We’re in a much deeper hole now.”
“If you don’t have some constraint, then we’re basically just acknowledging that we’re going to end up having a major crisis on our hands.”
“I don’t think ultimately it will be solved unless we have constitutional change.” @GovRonDeSantis @AEI @CapitolInstitut

"States have the power under Article V to propose a Balanced Budget Amendment exactly like Congress.

A convention of states can propose it. Then it still requires ratification by 3/4 of the states.
No “new Constitution” rewrite.
Just the Founders’ safeguard when Congress fails.

We are pushing toward the 34 state threshold. The fight is real, but so is the need." @GovRonDeSantis

"Florida has retired over half of its entire 181-year debt since I became Governor while slashing spending, vetoing billions, cutting taxes AND investing in roads, Everglades, police & teachers.

It can be done. But DC needs constitutional guardrails, a Balanced Budget Amendment to stop bankrupting America.
States must lead."@GovRonDeSantis

From the visionary wisdom of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (رحمه الله) to the strategic leadership of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE (حفظه الله), the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA) continues to shine as a beacon of excellence.

Today, ADIA stands as the 4th largest sovereign wealth fund in the world, managing $1.187 trillion in assets a powerful testament to UAE’s long-term vision and prudent global investment strategy.

Proud of this remarkable journey and the growing role of Emirati institutions on the world stage.

Dr. Paul Kenger on The #CapitalShow:
“The Abraham Accords were a historic win, UAE and those deals showed real peace progress under Trump.

Biden did nothing to build on them. Now in term two, Trump’s playing hardball: Maduro, Iran, even Greenland talk.
Love him or not, the guy has unbelievable energy.” Strategic partnerships + stamina.

Dr. Paul Kenger on The #CapitalShow:
“Younger conservatives are turning on Trump over U.S. involvement in Iran gas at $5/gallon, endless conflict fears.

But Trump’s playing ‘Art of the Deal’: big threats to force a real agreement.
He believes in Reagan’s peace through strength.”

Conservatives divided on the Middle East.
