"[Trump’s] arguments about Greenland have been farcical I think for a long time, and people have understood them as farcical until such point as they can’t afford to," said Stephen Hayes. "Europeans and our allies and Canadians, they can’t afford to have the seriously/literally debate."

"I think the omission [of the Iranian people] is part of the fact that [Trump] does not know what comes next," said Vivian Salama. "He can say that we're winding down because he has never quite defined what the end game looks like, what victory looks like."
"If you're Taiwan's government right now, how are you feeling about America's commitment to your security?" asks @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social. "I think, if you're in Taipei right now, there's reason to be nervous," says @nancyayoussef.bsky.social.
"Kharg Island is only about 1/3 the size of Manhattan, but don’t let that small size mislead you. It is the cornerstone of the Iranian economy. 90% of its oil exports come out of that island. And so the strikes on it have two big impacts, both military and economic," @nancyayoussef.bsky.social.
"[Trump] came in as an America First president, that he wasn’t going to get involved in international affairs. I think the shock is not that he has so many different ideas, but that it's so at odds with what he promised the administration would be,” said @nancyayoussef.bsky.social.
"Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, has a pretty realistic view of [the Iran war]. He told them from the beginning it wouldn't be as easy as the president said it was," said @peterbakernyt.bsky.social.
"Nineteen minutes long, that address was from the White House. It really was basically a 19-minute-long Truth Social post instead of a meaningful strategy for why [Trump has] taken such a consequential decision that has plunged the global economy into turmoil," said @sbg1.bsky.social.
. @peterbakernyt.bsky.social : "What we're seeing is a real escalation in this second term [of the Trump administration] about going after people who they consider to be enemies and that they consider to be providing information that they don't want to be out there, or views to be squelched."
"One of the reasons Minneapolis has stood up to this — what they call an 'invasion' of their city — is because they’ve had practice," said Toluse Olorunnipa. "It’s a city that has a long tradition of activism, and that tradition was supercharged by what happened in 2020."
Why is JD Vance going to Pakistan to negotiate a peace deal with Iran? "This will be the most senior in-person discussion between America and Iran since the 1979 revolution," said Karim Sadjadpour. "The Iranians actually requested to negotiate with JD Vance for a few reasons."
"There is also a tradition where Defense secretaries attempt to minimize their overtly partisan behavior," said Missy Ryan. "They try to, in the name of national security, act more as a nonpartisan actor, and Pete Hegseth has totally discarded that tradition."

I call bullshit. Caleb says he's not against anyone and claims he's just there to "preach the gospel." He wants to make sure public school kids aren't exposed to people or beliefs that differ from that of his fundamentalist religious group that he pastors in Belfair, a 35 mile drive from Tacoma.

Pence: "This talk of a weaponization fund, the idea of creating a fund that could compensate people that assaulted police officers and vandalized the Capitol that day is totally unacceptable. My hope is the administration will drop it. Drop the idea entirely."
