I still don’t understand why no one is proposing a tax holiday (State & Federal) while prices are elevated from the ME conflict. Would seem an easy way to curtail grumbling and help the public. That would be an immediate price drop of about 0.55/gal. A lot better than draining SPR.

I haven’t seen the FBI announce anything yet. Have you?

Looks like it to me. Like I say, I wonder how much input Miller had. Sounds like he’s right up Miller’s alley. If I had a personal recommendation for Trump, it would be to can Stephen Miller. Just me.

Possibly. All we have to go on are multiple reports from different media sources. After reading up on him after his service, I’m surprised and disappointed he was confirmed to the position in the first place. Looks like he had a solid, honorable military career. Then, he went off the rails after his wife was killed. I wonder how much input Miller had in his hiring? I’m not a Miller fan. Something just doesn’t pass the smell test with him to me. Advise and consent seems to have gone the way of the wind for both Parties.

If you’re referencing me, you’d be wrong again. You specifically stated the effort had already cost in the hundreds of billions. You were corrected with the available data that said $2 Billion/day was the high estimate. The request of $200 Billion is to cover current and future anticipated costs as well as weapon replacement costs and other future budget requests. From the article: President Donald Trump’s National Economic Council director Kevin Hassett said Sunday the war has already cost $12 billion. [Hidden Content]

Iran's Intelligence Chief eliminated. He was also apparently the head of their terrorism coordination efforts. White House calls Iranian intelligence minister’s death ‘a good thing’ for the US By DARLENE SUPERVILLE Trump’s chief spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, said Iranian Intelligence Minister Esmail Khatib was a “known terrorist.” “Of course, this man is no longer with us here on earth,” she said during a morning appearance on Fox News Channel. “And that’s a good thing for the United States. And it’s a good thing for the American people who have long been threatened by this rogue terrorist regime.” Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced Wednesday that its military had killed Khatib.

He knew it would be. That was his purpose.

He should have resigned in the way he served. With honor. The post of his resignation letter to X was not only uncalled for, it was detrimental to his brothers and sisters in harm's way. Whether we agree or not, they deserve our support. His action undermines that.

Break Out Another Thousand. Can you tell I was a boat owner many times over? 🤣

And people ask me why I'm a libertarian. lol Somehow--as I've said on this forum so many times I've lost count--our government has moved from it's core purposes to being nothing more than a wealth redistribution system built on a Ponzi scheme. The solution is to shrink the size and scope of the Fed as our framers intended. Get back as close as possible to enumerated powers. Dreaming, I know. But, one can dream.
