Another night, another stream, we're on to Act 3, the final Act of the Master of Command campaign, playing as Poland - https://t.co/9AM2kXt6fF

@SoapsandSciFi @BuffaloJon1 @RadioFreeTom The 60 day window for operations before the ceasefire only mattered because Trump didn't have enough GOP support for a longer war.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@SoapsandSciFi @BuffaloJon1 @RadioFreeTom Maybe... ultimately the original campaign petered out because Trump didn't have support for a War Powers act.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@BuffaloJon1 @RadioFreeTom I don’t see Congress voting for paying Iran on the eve of midterms, unless they count the value of sanctions relief as the rebuilding fund.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@KeithELaughlin @joshtpm On the eve. If midterms no less lol.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@dilanesper I have a hard time believing that Congress is gonna vote to give Iran $300 billion on the eve of midterms that feels like political suicide, that’s more than we gave Ukraine. I suppose, maybe the deal assumes some clever accounting that doesn’t require going through Congress.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@KeithELaughlin @joshtpm If taxpayers are giving Iran $300 billion that kind of thing has to go through Congress so I think it’s more likely the deal would fall apart than that would occur.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@joshtpm sanctioned money or Hormuz tolls or something we’re they don’t actually need Congress.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@joshtpm I’m really curious how they’re classifying $300 billion in rebuilding funds. It seems like there’s a 0% chance that US congressman are gonna agree to pay I ran $300 billion on the eve of midterms (or ever really) but maybe if there’s clever accounting where they’re counting

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@BretDevereaux True but the end of the main bombing campaign seems largely due to congressional constraints and it’s not like they have still needed Congress for $$$ stuff. So, so far there have been theoretical limits on how much they ignore it.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@wiz_political @TronVTron I cannot see Congress paying Iran
more than Ukraine got lol…

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@Disney4Eternity @ianbremmer Unless it’s creative accounting with sanctioned money that is subject to EOs, I don’t see Congress agreeing to give Iran 300 billion. Trump being impeached is more likely and we know that won’t happen.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@BretDevereaux Unless there’s really creative accounting, I just see a 0% chance that this Congress is gonna vote to give Iran $300 billion.

[Historical Gamer @HistoricalGamer]

@HormuzLetter There’s almost a 0% chance 300 billion in funding gets through Congress no matter what trumps says. They could say 5 T and it wouldn’t matter because it would never get authorized.

Returning to Master of Command tonight and looking to finish up Act 2 of the campaign, fighting the new DLC, the Lion and Eagle, as Poland - https://t.co/9AM2kXt6fF

@mikeduncan I've heard a variant on that lately that is at age 35 you can either get really into smoking meats, or WWII.

@MagicMike2485 @PitchingNinja I just told a friend that he’s better than my MLB The Show player… I didn’t think that was possible haha.
