I stopped gambling (mostly) last year and the way the books hound you with notifications/emails to Get Back In The Game should 100% be illegal
like if Coors could text drinkers "15 days since your last beer ... sounds like you need an ice cold Coors Light" and also their phone could give them a beer

CNBC’s Jim Cramer Sorry for His Horrendous Iran War Advice The “Mad Money” host suggested the U.S. should follow the Vietnam War playbook to achieve success in the Middle East conflict.

“I want this conflict solved diplomatically,” Cramer told CNBC’s Squawk on the Street. “But I’m a stock guy, and I apologize to anybody who thought I’d supported the destruction of the Iranian people."

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

Pentagon Sends Marine Expeditionary
Unit to Middle East
By Lara Seligman
The Pentagon is moving a Marine expeditionary unit to the Middle East, as Iran steps up its attacks on the Strait of Hormuz, according to two U.S. officials.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has approved a request from U.S. Central Command, responsible for American forces in the Middle East, for the expeditionary unit, typically consisting of up to 2,500 Marines, the officials said.
The move comes as Iran's attacks on the strait have paralyzed traffic through the strategic waterway, disrupting the global economy, driving up gas prices and posing a major military and political challenge for President Trump. A Pentagon spokesperson declined to comment.

Fascinating conflation-of "the Jewish people" with "the Jewish state," in 1 breath-as being blamed for the war in Iran. Israel IS to blame for the Iran war! They're one of the nations waging it! The only people who agree with him conflating Jews with that are anti-Semites (who are everywhere lately)

In the 1920s, there was an enormous Klan-aligned caucus in the House of Representatives that passed an immigration restriction bill designed to keep out Catholics and Jews because they supposedly posed an existential threat to American civilization. 100 years later, here we are.

If the government really is worried about Iranian sleeper cells, then it was probably a mistake to systematically reorient the majority of US counterterror resources toward arresting immigrant grandmothers and five-year-olds in bunny hats

"That was always in our planning, that there's the chance that U.S Navy or perhaps an international coalition will be escorting oil tankers through."
