I believe mostly fertilizer. Which is why they haven’t done it so far bc it would be brutal on farmers.

The long-term effects of Trump's policies are projected to translate into an 8% reduction in US GPD, a two-year loss in average life expectancy, and hundreds of thousands of deaths in the developing world annually. But at least he doesn't trip over his words the way Biden did.

It gets harder by the day not to characterize this administration as distinctly β€œnorth korean” when the White House senior staff is about fifteen inches away from declaring Trump invented the moon and the stars, and currently argue things like that he invented in Geico Gecco

Why am I so unimpressed by these strikes? Israel and the US have failed to target significant elements of Iran's nuclear materials and production infrastructure. RISING LION and MIDNIGHT HAMMER are tactically brilliant, but may turn out to be strategic failures. 🧡 1/17

I'm sorry, but it's pretty hard to take the conservative outrage over this Terry Moran post seriously when reporters & hosts on Fox, Newsmax, OANN, etc. constantly say wildly partisan thingsβ€”and people have just kind of accepted they’re held to a lower standard.

If a Muslim in the US publicly called for a missile strike on a famous celebrity activist onboard a civilian ship or plane, the FBI would be investigating them for terrorism.

Two weeks ago, Ben Schrader - the highly respected chief of the criminal division for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Nashville - announced he had resigned.
According to LinkedIn data, that was May 21 - the same day as Abrego Garcia's indictment. 1/2

My money’s on Trump.
(1) he’s got real power
(2) he’s got a massive political following. Musk has almost none on his own, apart from his former association w Trump
(3) Trump has been consistently underestimated for 10 years

Prediction: Trump crushes Elon

We all lose either way
