I dunno, if I were Jeffrey Goldberg, author of "How Did I Get Iraq Wrong?' (2008), I might pause for a moment before cheerleading another war in the same region.
Makes you wonder how much of this information was given freely to Putin directly from Trump
The Hokies losing Carleigh Wenzel midway through the first quarter is no bueno. Winning this one was always going to be tough but without her … yikes.
I love this skeet because it asks the same question in the text, the headline and the auto-populated link description, and we all know there’s no answer.
Go that way really fast. If something gets in your way, turn.
Stop literally everything.

Also, the U.S. sank an Iranian ship off the coast of Sri Lanka, Iran is threatening international shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, and the man suspected of last weekend's domestic terror attack in Austin was ostensibly inspired by the war.

Tomorrow’s editorial (gift link): “Hampton Roads, home to many members of the military now deployed overseas, needs no reminder to honor our fallen heroes. But it’s clear from his comments that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth does, as shameful as that is.”
From his repeated insistence that there are "no rules of engagement," it's hard not to infer that destroying that school was a choice, not a mistake.
Noem deserved to be fired. That is a win for the forces of the Constitution.

I take it as is a personal attack that there's a dot on Virginia Beach but no Virginia Beach show. (Charlotte's dot is missing.)

Attacking Iran looks like it will cost US consumers about 40 cents/gallon.
“And if those 100+ Iranian schoolchildren were still alive, I’m sure they’d agree.”
