I like Marco Rubio a lot. In my view, he has, as of this writing, far and away the best chance of winning as the Republican presidential candidate in 2028.

I think he's right in that many Americans have forgotten that America comes first. We need to protect our own interests.

Gas is falling to almost pre-war levels. If this had happened two months earlier, would the midterms have gone better?

Just the question.

According to Pompeo, "President Trump is right - not only do we not need a deal with Tehran, there's zero reason to believe that we could ever forge an agreement that protects US interests.

Iran is the one on the ropes, not America. Let's act accordingly."

As I wrote previously, I suspect that Trump probably did the right thing when he attacked Iran. Yes, I know it was unpopular, and I also know it caused gas prices to spike back to Biden-era levels (with far less media panic than we saw back then, by the way).

A nuclear-armed Iran can never happen. Many presidents have said it, but Trump was the first president to actually take direct military action against their nuclear program. And if you're going to mention Obama's 2015 agreement, remember that its key restrictions on centrifuges and uranium enrichment had 10- to 15-year sunset clauses—leaving Iran with an easy path to a bomb once those limits expired, after pocketed sanctions relief. Who among us would trust the Iranian hardline regime? https://x.com/mikepompeo/status/2121649368789058034
