Tomi Lahren: I’m not a scientist—the algae thing, I believe that’s what happens in bodies of water such as this so I don’t believe this is President Trump’s fault. He's trying to make a reflecting pool nicer. And they go out of their way to damage and vandalize it. It’s like the BLM Summer of Love. You have to be pretty stupid to do that.

Let's be honest,the Iranian delegation's performance in Switzerland was a masterclass in psychological and diplomatic leverage.
They arrived on their own terms, made the Americans wait, refused even the symbolic gesture of a handshake, held firm to their demands, and walked away the moment they usual threats from Donald Trump entered the conversation.
In doing so, they projected confidence while exposing the American desperation and weakness.

What stands out is the Persians' sophisticated understanding of symbolism and strategy.
Every move is calculated, every gesture deliberate, as though they are several moves ahead in a chess match while their counterparts is struggling to keep up.

The result is a striking contrast: Iran is composed, disciplined, and in control, while the United States is reactive and outmaneuvered.
It is becoming increasingly difficult to deny the fact that Iran has now emerged as one of the most influential and formidable powers in the Middle East......

It’s cheaper for the public to be insured than uninsured.

Cooper: Remember, on Medicaid expansion, Republican Thom Tillis, stood up on the floor and said, “I can’t vote for this one big beautiful bill because I don’t know what I’d tell the people of North Carolina.”

He knew that many people were going to lose their health insurance. And remember, the Medicaid cuts will come after the election.

Brutal civilizational reminder: The most scientifically+technically advanced society on earth in 1939, with the best engineering, best chemistry, full orchestras & philosophy faculties, organized the most systematic genocide in human history within 6 years of being that advanced

[Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library @TRPresLibrary]

In June 1910, after fourteen months away — eleven of them in Africa, the rest on a triumphal European tour — Theodore Roosevelt came home to Sagamore Hill.

He had left the United States in March 1909, twenty-six days out of office, bound for an East African safari that would carry him through what is now Kenya, Uganda, and the southern Sudan. He came out of the bush at Khartoum a year later to find that he was, somehow, more famous than when he went in. The European leg became an unofficial victory tour: the Sorbonne speech in Paris on April 23, the Romanes Lecture at Oxford on June 7, the Guildhall address in London at the end of May, dinners with kings, an audience with Pope Pius X.

When the "Kaiserin Auguste Victoria" docked in New York on June 18, 1910, a great crowd lined the harbor to welcome him. And then, in the days that followed, he did the thing he had been longing to do: he went home, up the hill above Long Island Sound, to the rambling house he had commissioned in 1884.

Sagamore Hill was where he came to rest, to write, and to think. It is where he wrote much of his autobiography, received political delegations, and watched, with growing concern, the country move toward a war his sons would fight in.

He came home in June 1910 not knowing that within two years he would be running for president again — and within nine he would be dead.

What’s more insane than the ‘war with Egypt’ line is the repeated claim that the Muslim Brotherhood is about to take over Florida and Texas.

These people are paranoid warmongering Islamophobic madmen.
