Those days have long since passed…We’ve got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we’ve got their Strait!” Trump Says He Could Destroy Iran in Three Days >…Donald Trump claimed that U.S. forces could destroy Iran’s remaining infrastructure within three days if he chose to order such an attack. >“If I want to take them out, I hit their energy in one day. Their energy is gone. In one day, their bridges are gone, and in one day, their manufacturing capability is gone. It would only take me three days, one day each.” Israeli Spy Chief Presses Trump to Resume Iran War >The director of the Israeli spy agency Mossad is in Washington Friday for talks with senior Trump administration officials about the war in Iran. >The visit by Roman Gofman, one of Benjamin Netanyahu’s closest confidants, comes as the Israeli prime minister is pressing President Trump to resume the war against Iran.

The incident intensified scrutiny of his close relationship with Trump and dealings with the administration. https://x.com/BillKristol/status/2121252258876686800 https://x.com/washingtonsun/status/2121048564587548681 https://x.com/paulmozur/status/2120885420322091425 https://x.com/hailey_cryptoo/status/2121116995089560054 Trump’s Stance On Jensen Huang Is a Tell >Sometimes a news story is important because it reveals information for the first time. Other times, it’s a big deal because it confirms what many people already suspected. The latest development in the story of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang falls into the second category. >As news of Huang’s extramarital affair with a suspected Chinese spy rocks Silicon Valley, Washington, and Wall Street, President Trump has pleaded ignorance. In particular, he has said he was unaware of the relationship between Jensen Huang and Alice Huang (no relation) when he traveled to China this past May. ‘No, I didn’t hear about it then,’ he told reporters on Monday. >Almost immediately, The New York Times reported that in fact Trump had been warned by Marco Rubio, the national security adviser and secretary of state, while headed to China on Air Force One, just before Jensen Huang boarded the plane for a state visit. https://x.com/atrupar/status/2120980151999582647 https://x.com/davetroy/status/2121010341752782891 https://x.com/sagarcasm/status/2120888710149656624 https://x.com/covie_93/status/2121018463405908209

https://x.com/ruthbenghiat/status/2120942014493856241 Escape From New York >US power structures were already corrupt — otherwise they wouldn’t have been easy to subvert — but their Trump-era capture is near compete. Organized crime has abandoned even the pretense of legitimate government: that’s why Trump’s son-in-law is “negotiating” two wars as a private citizen. The litmus test of whether the US is a mafia state has always been Kushner. It is a test that Jeffries and Schumer repeatedly fail. https://x.com/KellDAChicago/status/2120846718862336111
