So, under this memorandum of understanding, Iran will receive $324 billion in exchange for agreeing not to develop nuclear weapons.
But please keep going on about the $400 million in cash that Obama authorized to Iran as part of the JCPOA.
Conservatives used to remind us every 20 minutes that Reagan never took off his jacket in the Oval Office because he had so much reverence for the White House.
GW never said this and neither did anybody else. The only official symbolism in the Flag Resolution is the stars are "representing a new constellation." The rest is just an iteration on the Red Ensign, and likely the East India Company's white stripes on it. The colors have no particular meaning.
Not believing in science really comes back to bite you, doesn’t it?

Part of the calculated desecration here isn't just symbolic. It's that there a dozen ways this is already explicitly illegal, black letter no-question unambiguous statutory prohibition, but he can flaunt how nobody's going to tell him no or do anything about it.
“We got the same thing Obama did, but we blew some shit up first.”

"we ran 125 million barrels of oil through the Strait" is a classic "large number dummy" trick because under normal circumstances, 20 million barrels passed through the Strait of Hormuz every single day. "we've gotten 125 million barrels through" actually means transport has slowed to a trickle.

tRump deployed sacred Honor Guards who escort fallen heroes to roll out the red carpet for UFC fighters at the Lincoln Memorial. This is a f*cking disgrace. Using the military like props for his ego-driven spectacle on hallowed ground. Absolute disrespect.

100% right that this is an interest-free loan from UFC to WLFI dressed as a sponsorship.
It’s also a product demo. UFC pays in cash, WLFI converts it to a “gift” in its own currency, and a billion-person audience learns USD1 means instant money. 9 days after the freeze key proved otherwise.

HEGSETH: The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, won't seek one, won't buy one, won't have one
BRENNAN: The JCPOA said that too
HEGSETH: But they didn't have the threat of military force the way we do that Iran respects. President Trump led with military might.

WLFI is paying UFC bonuses in USD1 on the White House lawn, nine days after its freeze key locked retail users out of the same system.
HEGSETH: We have controlled the straits this entire time
BRENNAN: You're negotiating with them to reopen it

Once more, the point of having military guards in full dress at the White House Nitro Circus sponsored by Black Rifle Coffee Company isn’t that this all presents a coherent vision of America. It’s a show of dominance, of publicly degrading our symbols and institutions to proclaim that they own them.
