Think the UN can't sink any lower? "UN gives Iran a role monitoring non-nuclear proliferation."

There’s too much at stake to sit out on the sidelines.

$300 billion for the reconstruction of Iran is like launching the Marshall Plan to rebuild Germany while the Nazis were still in power — except the Marshall Plan was worth only about $130 billion in today’s dollars.

JD Vance: “My three favorite Democrats are Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and Tulsi Gabbard.” 👇

JD is as Republican as AOC.

🔴 I am right. More details about the ecosystem behind the Trump and White House accounts:

🔹️Alex Bruesewitz founded an X company through which he is proven to run the accounts of @TrumpWarRoom, @TeamTrump, MTG, and Anna Paulina Luna. Those are only the accounts officially confirmed so far.

🔹️The same team/people that runs Team Trump and War Room also runs
@RapidResponse47, among others together with Jakob Schneider.

🔹️Jakob may not work directly for Alex, and Alex's company may not directly control Rapid Response. But they were all together in the same team behind the Trump War Room and Team Trump accounts, seem to be close to each other, etc.

🔹️This is relevant because Alex Bruesewitz is woke right, pro-deal, pro-Vance, anti-Israel, attacks pro-Israel voices and Republicans who oppose a deal, uses Trump-accounts to attack Iranians, is friends with Tucker, spoke at the Doha Forum like Tucker, lied about the $300,000 he received from the cannabis lobby, manipulates the political debate on X surrounding the deal, and in all likelihood briefs Trump on the climate on X.

https://t.co/dJkSbljsv4

🔹️If I'm right and he is briefing Trump, then Alex is also misleading Trump on the following points:

- that everyone is pro-deal and pro-Vance,
- that those who oppose the deal only do so because of fake narratives ("taxpayer dollars"), a talking point Alex himself helped spread through accounts like MTG's,
- that only "Dumocrats" oppose the deal,
- and that any Republicans who oppose the deal are simply people who always hated Trump. (Vance used to call Trump Hitler, but they conveniently ignore that.)

The effect is to isolate Trump from Israel and everyone who isn't part of the woke right. Trump ends up arguing against strawmen and ghosts that don't actually exist in the real debate on X - or that Alex himself helped create.

This group of people is manipulating the flow of information and the entire political debate surrounding the deal. They are hiding and discrediting opposition to the deal and to Vance while amplifying woke-right, anti-Israel narratives through their control of major political X accounts. It's dangerous.

[Jonah Goldberg @JonahDispatch]

Great question for the vice president.

[Insider Paper @TheInsiderPaper]

BREAKING: Iran’s joint military command announced on state television that the Strait of Hormuz has been closed, citing Israeli strikes in Lebanon as the reason.

[Sunny @sunnyright]

Right before this, Vance insisted the Strait is now open

Now, Iran comes out and says nah that's closed because you didn't give us everything we want immediately

[Michele @Cheley5588]

Respectfully, team Witkoff & Vance have done enough damage to America. We have people with more wisdom, experience, and critical judgment, and much less naïvety. Let's allow them to try to clean up this MOU mess and deal with an experienced terrorist regime that still desires Death to America.

[Joseph Gelman @JosephGelman]

The man is shameless. He didn’t kill the Ayatollah, the Israeli Air Force did. He didn’t take out Iran’s anti-aircraft capabilities, the Israeli Air Force did. The man is taking credit for the operations of a country that he is now throwing under the bus.

[Syrians love israelis @SY_Love_IL]

I searched J.D. Vance's political positions and came across this video, where he says his favorite politician is Bernie Sanders.

His hostility toward Israel is not new. It's simply surfacing now because he finally has the opportunity to act on it.

No wonder he sided with the IRGC against Israel.

[Michele @Cheley5588]

@axios @BretBaier Interesting decision to share this headline. For the sake of being "fair and balanced" would you also post what you believe prompted this response from Israel?

[Gordon G. Chang @GordonGChang]

Mr. Vice President, Iran’s regime has no right to exist. In any event, it is not your job to make arguments on behalf of this enemy of our country.

[Warren @swd2]

Trump finally got his dream ride: a shiny $400M Qatar Force One, gifted by his oil buddies. Because nothing says ‘America First’ like flying around in a foreign prince’s hand-me-down jet while taxpayers foot the retrofits.

[Jacklyn Talucci @JacklynProof]

The $32 million from the state (part of a $37 million total) fixed a decades-old real estate fight over land the developer has owned since the 1970s. They transferred it to public entities and locked the whole spit under permanent conservation easements. No development ever.
Break it down: State paid $32 million (taxpayer money, approved by the Fiscal Authority with the Governor and put in the House budget). Town of Kiawah put in $3.7 million. Conservancy added $1.3 million.
Why that number? Appraised value plus what they claimed they lost plus the huge risk from the 2009 takings lawsuit they filed against the state. If the state lost, it could have meant $200 million or more in damages plus legal costs. Instead, they got permanent conservation and public access without endless court fights or maybe some houses going up anyway.
Look at the deed. The developer has owned this land since the 1970s. See the 2013 Special Warranty Deed recorded in Charleston County Book 0335 Page 077. It shows the full chain back to 1976 declarations in Book T108 page 338, the 1988 assignment in Book Z175 page 561, and lots more. Real estate contracts and deeds exist for a reason. They protect both sides. You can’t just seize someone’s titled land. The owner fights for their rights. The public side enforces the agreements and restrictions. Then they negotiate a settlement that caps the risk and locks in the protection. That’s exactly what happened here.
The developer sued the state in 2009 over permit denials for erosion control. The town, KICA, and Conservancy sued the developer in 2024 to make them follow the 2013 agreement for conveyances and easements. The settlement ends both cases and gives us what we wanted: the land saved forever.
People act like this is crazy taxpayer spending. But we already use public money for conservation all the time in South Carolina. SCDNR and partners just spent about $50 million for over 10,000 acres in the Lowcountry for a new Heritage Preserve. The Heritage Trust and Conservation Bank have protected hundreds of thousands of acres with state appropriations, transfer taxes, and grants. It’s how we actually save sensitive land.
And yes, we are not developing this place. We wanted less development. They planned 50 homes. Paying a one-time amount to stop that forever beats the long-term cost of more houses, more people, more schools, more roads, more cars, more services, and more taxes year after year. This started in 2009, before @AGAlanWilson was even AG. The settlement just finished it.
Public records in the Charleston ROD, court files, and budget docs show all of it. If you want less development, this kind of deal is one way it actually happens. Real estate works through contracts, fights, and negotiated resolutions. Not magic.

I really question if people in South Carolina understand Real Estate and the protection it has… It was built that way for a reason….

Good news: literally no one proposes “forever wars.” So I agree “proponents of forever wars” don’t have credibility. Neither do leprechauns. Try arguing against a position that actually exists.

[Robert Spencer @jihadwatchRS]

Not true. I supported him in 2016, 2020 and 2024. I’m opposed to endless wars. I’m also, however, opposed to surrendering to and propping up evil regimes.
