He can’t. He won’t. But, right now, he’s lost the support of those who didn’t want him to start in the first place, and he’s losing the support of those who realize the need, but want him to finish the job all the way to regime change because they know it’s the only way.

You speak your mind from what appears to be experience, and I read everything you post. You also post to debate versus post to “win” or one up someone which I respect. I like reading your opinions because they are sometimes different than mine, which makes me think

You are correct if it's any deal that leaves the current regime in place. The amount of time until it comes back to bite us will be the only question. Sorry. I don't have TDS. I have experience with these folks. Hopefully, my posts have shown that I am somewhat competent on these type issues. I'm not even a 'Debbie Downer.' Again, it's just experience. And I could care less what the 'Trump don't play' crowd has to say. They've been wrong on this conflict from day one.

Main cover should have Sark and McGuire on it with boxing gloves.

Who took that as serious then passed it off on us? That sounds like a democrat. I’ll let anyone know what I take seriously.

checking in with last year's CWS field...after Coastal's defeat this morning... LSU, Arizona, Louisville, and Murray State -- missed postseason Coastal -- eliminated UCLA, Arkansas, and Oregon State -- alive in the loser's bracket looks like heavy turnover from 2025 to 2026 in Omaha

I’ve posted my thoughts a couple posts previous. Bury—or take out—their shoreline tunnel/fortification systems. Without them, their control of the Strait via threats is negligible at worst, and nonexistent at best. Any launcher in country that shows its face, obliterate. Drones should be flying 24/7. Any boat on the water…sink it. Yes, you can do a lot more damage before taking out dual use facilities. Iran has a lot of open, unpatrolled territory. Use it. Make sure Starlink is being used to inform the people, or use some money to provide free service via AT&T, Verizon, or any and all to bypass Iran’s regulation of the internet. Get them info on how to access. Get information to the people of Iran. If you’re going to use money, use it to get people on your side—the original wish.

I have no idea about any supposed $300 Million, or any of that. I don't think anyone knows yet. People are just spitballing. What I do know is the U.S. has more than enough munitions to take care of the Iran situation with no limitations. Some people are concerned because it would leave us short--if needed--to defend Taiwan in the 2 or 3 years or less timeframe. I can guarantee the U.S. is already looking at cheaper, new tech based on the Iran conflict that can be brought to bear in a shorter timeframe. The U.S. military industrial complex learns from every conflict. That--in a reverse good way--is why our tech always leads the way. The latest Defense Dept. budget request included $54 Billion for autonomous warfare programs. The U.S. will have AI in great use for military actions before anyone else is close. Somewhat scary. But, as long as humans are still making final decisions, it's the future of warfare. We need to lead. Not lag. Newsflash reiteration: We weren't going to wholeheartedly defend Taiwan anyway. It's too close in proximity to mainland China, and their assets. It would basically be undefendable if China wanted to go full bore invasion. Iran could have been pretty much over without a 6 week ceasefire. The next large scale conflict will be about energy and food resources. The Greenies have been acknowledged (even by the UN scientists) to have been full of horse manure. Many countries have been ruined, and economies have been crushed. Billions have been wasted while a few profited. Trump has done well in securing the Western Hemisphere. We have plenty of oil between Venezuela, Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. The Americas are energy rich. We are good on Nat gas. As far as agriculture, the Americas also offer a bounty that makes much of the world envious. Trump has also done well in attempting to onshore our needs in critical minerals and semiconductor fab shops. We are good on aluminum and steel. All-in-all, This Administration has us on a net positive for the next big conflict as long as the semiconductor and rare earth mineral investments get cranking fairly soon, and actually begin producing benefits. But, Iran is a rock around our proverbial necks. The prolonged conflict is hurting the everyday American, and no one should even attempt to deny. POTUS--and the public--need to understand, and be told the truth that some young men and women will lose their lives to secure all of our long-term safety. The fantastic folks who serve us all know what they are asked when they enlist. This is why they (the 1-2% that serve) are special. They all deserve our gratitude and support. They also deserve full backing, and the ability to perform their jobs while being led by competent leadership. I'm not as concerned about the competency of our military leadership. But, regardless of Administrations, I've been concerned about our political leadership's convictions and actual willingness to win for a long time. It's not a new problem. If you're sending our folks into harm's way, send them under true reasons, back them 110%, and then get out of the way except to supply them with everything they need. Give them clear mission objectives, and then act like you want to win. I am NOT a warmonger. As someone who has experienced combat, I'm actually almost opposite. But, preparation and having the 'bigger stick' is still the best way to avoid major conflicts. Once you're in one, stop half arsing it.

I’ve found myself watching a little bit of a lot of games. Haven’t watched a full 9 inning game but have see an inning here and there on a lot of games.

The Golden Era is here! 👏👏👏

The belt is staying in Orange!

Yeah we played well. Only gave up a hit in game one

Dang so close… London will be 4a next year. I was rooting for yall

Very few players on the roster eligible to return as it was an extremely senior heavy roster. Nice to see the team make a regional for the first time in 16 years. Great resources for a SLC school so hope the program can start winning a bit more consistently. Also, hope to have the new hire announced by tomorrow and start moving forward with what will likely be an essentially rebuilt roster. I know a guy in the conference that rebuilt from nothing with absolutely no NIL in the program, but quite sure many quality names are in the mix. The guy from Blinn mentioned earlier by a poster has a tremendous resume. All we can do now is hide and watch. Will truly miss Hatten as we were students together years ago and he and others allowed me to assist with summer camps when I coached high school ball. Great guy and quite entertaining when he was angry during a game, which occurred basically when a game was being played. Lol My old man, my brother, and I will have our lawn chairs ready for the 3rd base line in 2027 for the best few months of the year See all 3 or 4 of you at the Beck next season. Hit em where they ain't!

First of all, I’m 99.9999% sure that Trump will not give Iran money. And second, Trump won’t let Iran get a nuclear weapon.

Again take the hook out of your mouth. Lol

Can’t wait for you to spend this! 😂 Winning!!! ……Embarrassing

Jonesboro 6 Brookeland 5 Final Great year Brookeland.

China did do it to us with Covid. The death toll, vaccine injuries and economic damage is incalculable! What does Trump do since he got re-elected? He goes to China and brings the top 30 CEO’s of the biggest companies in America to kiss Xi’s rear. Then does an interview and says he doesn’t want to offend Xi by not excepting 500,000 Chinese students! Now it looks like he’s going to give Iran $300 billion dollars for reconstruction of what we blew up. Very disappointed in this second go around with Trump. His America last agenda sucks. So yeah weak.

Two shutouts in the semi’s is not bad.

No… I think Trump is doing a good job at making us look weak at this point. Lol It seems Iran is still controlling the Strait and they’re not giving up the dust. That exit ramp is getting very tiny for Trump. I sure hope reports I’ve been reading are NOT TRUE. They are saying part of the Iran agreement is Trump giving Iran $300 billion dollars for reconstruction of what we’ve blown up.
