@DefiyantlyFree Funny how they say "Trump won't want to do anything before the midterms" but completely forget after he will have 2 years after as a lame duck with a hostile congress and nothing to do but military adventurism.

@XFreeze Just seems like a lot of effort vs designing something you can throw in an uninhabited desert somewhere. Solar array, closed loop cooling, starlink for connectivity, modular scalable design, etc, etc. Maybe it's 50% less efficient but would come at 10% of the overall cost.

Used to listen to the podcast weekly and listened to the entire Massie episode when it came out. Loved how down to earth he seemed, enjoyed hearing about his homestead powered off an old Tesla battery and jerry-rigged water pump, etc.

Super depressing the path you both went down. It's one thing to disagree but another to continually undermine Trump and disrespect your listeners with one-sided hate filled rants. I can take one or two, but at some point, the aggravation caused by listening exceeded the entertainment and insight. I doubt I'm alone.

@catturd2 Really sad to see, just a bridge too far for me, had to unfollow him today and drop his podcast.

@mcuban The issue has always been the healthcare pricing structure, inflated book prices, and insurance contracts. Whole system needs to be blown up and fixed then you can implement a mostly cash system with stop-losses as insurance should be.

@RJLDilkie @AlexBerenson Because its only effective short term and comes with serious tradeoffs like uniting the entire region and world against them. They are dependent on exports/imports to survive so a sea blockade combined with continued air attacks will utterly destroy them.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@arspudbuster @AlexBerenson Read up on the tanker war of the 1980s and related tactics. Drones and fast attack boats are easily defeated with a convoy approach, with a heavier ship up front to absorb any mines. At the same time we can blockade all of Iran's ships and starve them into submission.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@DrEliDavid The purported list was what Iran wants not what we're agreed to. Implying that we'd accept at face value any or even some of those conditions is the hoax you're spreading.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@DrEliDavid You know the answer. A true regime change is not politically or militarily possible so he's selling a leadership change being as good as its going to get for now. True regime change will require lots of time to covertly arm the Iranian population.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@ClayTravis Very accurate and well said.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@arspudbuster @AlexBerenson Study history, its been done before and can be done again.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

Tell me you're not naive enough to think today's congress would coalesce around a war authorization for Iran being lobbied by Trump?

IMHO the only chance this operation had was overwhelming and rapid force to do as much damage as possible to Iran's ability to project military strength (e.g. mowing the grass) while at the same time trying to force them into a new longer term deal. I personally think it fell a bit short and would have liked to see more stuff damaged (including their oil export ability) to chase the failed state model, gulf allies and oil prices be damned, but those who think like me are clearly in the minority.

On the plus side we've exposed their playbook for the region to see and can now improve our approach should a deal fall apart in the future. We need more, cheaper, and better drone interceptors. We need a better military option for escorting ships, and the gulf states need to follow the Saudi's lead and build a pipeline. 

As for Trump's personal popularity it's amazing its above 20% given the non-stop media negative coverage. But at this point, does it really matter? He was always going to lose Congress during the midterms. If he loses by one seat or fifty, the effect is the same, so as a supporter, I'd rather see him get as much done as he can while he can.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@Koefnielsen @ilangoldenberg No one is going to accept paying tolls, it's a pipedream.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@umfball1999 @AGHamilton29 Nothing has changed. They've always threatened to mine/attack ships in the straight. Going forward ships will pass in international waters and if Iran attacks it will be considered an act of war against the country who licensed the ship.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@AlexBerenson Terrorist state doing terrorist things like trying to extort "protection" money from nearby ships should surprise no one. But when we're done blowing stuff up over there we can then flip to the same tactics and start asking for tolls for ships going to and from Iran.

[Terry Burger @TerryTuner]

@AlexBerenson Alex the quote "...so Iran can never hide behind them to build a nuclear weapon" implies they can never have a nuclear weapon. The rest is more of a wish list trying to keep partners happy. But to many closure of the Strait is a feature not a bug.
