To say that Trump underestimated Iran is an understatement. The Israelis sold him - and he ended up believing - a narrative that portrayed Iran as so weak that the war would be won within 4 days. 60 plus days later, Trump is still stuck in the mess Israel sold him.

If you want escalation, surrender is what you should be looking for. That's why pro-Israeli voices are pushing for outlandish demands - because they know it will beget escalation and more war.

Just as in Gaza, the US is lifting the constraints on how Israel can use American bombs. As a result, Israel uses 2,000lb bombs to strike densely populated areas in Tehran. So, we are now seeing Gaza-style images of civilians and children being killed en masse in Iran.

Told @cnn that Trump tying the Iran deal with regional accession to the Abraham Accords will ensure that the war continues. But Trump may be raising the Accords to bolster his pro-Israeli credentials and deflect from inevitable criticism that his deal is opposed by Israel.

First, Israel bombed a father and his daughter. Then, when the medical team arrived, they bombed again. A double tap. A war crime. Designed to maximize civilian casualties. That is, terrorism.

Told @BBCWorld that a key sign that the US and Iran are close to a deal is that the Trump admin has spent the last 48h defending a potential deal. They wouldn't be spending any political capital defending a yet-to-be-secured deal if they didn't believe they were close.

Told @AJE that the US's strategic defeat against Iran also raises questions about the sustainability of American primacy, not just in the Middle East, but globally. Iran has done to the US what Ukraine did to Russia.

Told @AJEnglish that the Israelis are driving this war right now, and Trump must retake control of it because Israel's interest diverges from that of the US. Israel wants to prolong the war to degrade Iran's industrial base - regardless of the cost to the global economy.

A resident in Tehran films the US and Israel bomb densely populated neighborhoods in Tehran. These are clearly massive munitions with little to no regard for civilian casualties. Indeed, the entire neighborhood is engulfed in fire and smoke. Just as Israel did in Gaza.

On @Bannons_WarRoom, I argued that on several variables, Trump can get a stronger Iran deal than Obama's. Particularly if he lifts primary sanctions and opens the Iranian market to American companies. For average Americans, this will matter more than nuclear details.

Planning a road trip? We took a trip to Lake George where gas prices are causing mixed reactions.

Save Act is NOT what MAGA claims. It will force US citizens to PAY for birth certificates or passports in order to vote, even if you were born here. Long lines & chaos which is what Trump really wants to keep control over Congress #NoPayToVoteSaveAct

Since I woke up late today i thought I might as well spend an evening walking around the famed Guang Hua Digital Plaza. The whole area around as it turns out is a sort of "electric town" like Den Den in Osaka, Akihabara in Tokyo or Yongsan in Seoul.

I can attest to this. I have family and friends struggling to find jobs. Trump, DOGE, ⬆️ prices due to tariffs & the war are causing this. “It's a tough time to be entering the workforce. 43% of 18 to 29-year-olds say they are struggling to get by or are getting by with limited financial security.”
