@ReeveSwainston This man demonstrates that he belongs nowhere near the intelligence community. When political ideology is inserted into the intelligence equation, the intelligence becomes worthless. Trump 2.0 has shown how the IC can play a vital role in global stability. LFG 47. ‘Merica.
@ReeveSwainston I can’t fault him for his attempts at getting different points of view out there for people to see and hear. At least he openly admits that the information can’t be wholly believed. If it turns out that it’s Baghdad Bob 2.0, at least we’ll have something to laugh at.
@elonmusk There will never be a “perfect” bill that passes congress. It’s a body made up of people with differing opinions and beliefs. The working class got something out of 45’s plan and now, they’ll get something from 47. Most other bills cater to the top or bottom. Compromise at work.
@ReeveSwainston Perfect timing. Perfect context. When used rarely in public, it gets the point across. Trump leverages every opportunity and we’ve needed a POTUS willing to do so, for a very long time.
@ReeveSwainston If this holds, this operation will be taught for ages to come. Equal parts diplomacy, equal parts military strength. Exactly how one’s military might is supposed to be used.
@ReeveSwainston These people failed strategy 101. Too wrapped up in pure political science, they’ve blinded themselves to the effectiveness of bold, decisive leadership.
History will remember and study 47’s actions, while the talking heads’ comments will be forgotten.
@Osint613@BillAckman We know that smoking kills. Yet, we smoke anyway. Same logic applies to this decision.
Oil markets may flash panic, but the retaliation will be swift and decisive, calming the markets inside of 24hrs.
Weekend attacks are best, as the markets have time to digest while closed.
@Osint613@BillAckman The electronic warfare that the IRCG has been conducting within the strait, is more than enough reason to act.
What’s left of their navy will now become a new feature on navigation maps known as, “The Strait of Hormuz Artificial Reef.”
@ReeveSwainston Today is a day that the world was reminded that red lines mean something again. As the talking heads lose their minds, the evildoers around the globe are having second thoughts about going forward with any nefarious plans they may have.
@VincentOshana If anything, this was a textbook operation. Israel softened targets and paved the way for the B-2’s to come in and deliver their strike. That’s not a war, that’s a preemptive action in order to prevent war.
@MaileOnX@realDonaldTrump War requires an Air Force, defendable airspace, a functioning Navy, and well trained and mentally focused, purpose driven ground troops. Iran has none of these remaining. If you think a war is coming, you watch too much TV.
@patrickbetdavid Decisive, preemptive strikes, is what prevents war. Removing the Iranian government’s ability to use nuclear weapons as a lever against the world, allows the Iranian people to take their country back. Good move.

I needed that laugh.
