re: Does the 1980 October surprise story being validated change your views of Reagan?

This was long thought to be a rumor but was later confirmed by former Texas Lieutenant Governor Ben Barnes who verified the claims.

Barnes is a lifelong Democrat who was the vice-chair of John Kerry’s Presidential campaign and Kerry’s top fundraiser. Why would we trust his word on the matter?

The 14-point document dictates that final negotiations will not begin until the release of half of Iran’s frozen funds, the suspension of Iran’s oil sanctions, and the lifting of the naval blockade, the Mehr News Agency reported.

All American forces would need to withdraw from Iran, and the U.S. and its allies, would need to present reconstruction plans for Iran worth at least $300 billion, according to the report.

If true, that’s pathetic on our part.

Hopefully it’s better than Sidney Powell and the Kraken.

He may get a deal done, but his messaging on this conflict has been a mess.

I know many here will chalk that up to him using his words to force Iran to do different things, but Iran hasn’t actually done anything yet to show us they will follow through on signing a deal or carrying out a deal, so I don’t think his words alone have forced them to do anything particularly substantive.

Trump says new strikes on Iran are cancelled and that Iranian leadership has approved deal

BREAKING: President Trump confirms that “bigger, more powerful” bombings against Iran will take place tonight.

The president also telling @foxandfriends the U.S. could go into Iran with a small group of soldiers and “take over the whole place,” but also says he doesn’t want to have American boots on the ground.

"There will be more bombing tonight. It'll be bigger, bigger, more powerful."

"We can walk in there tomorrow. We could take soldiers - I don't want to have boots on the ground - but if I wanted to, we could put a small group of soldiers and take over the whole place."

How, within the current legal framework that has appeared around college sports, do you fix this?

Unfortunately, it seems like the only fix would be congressional legislation. I shutter at the idea of federal government involvement but it seems like everything else short of that is just going to get struck down by a court somewhere.

Didn’t they want Bell more than Jones in the #20 so JGR moved Jones to the 77 JGR affiliate furniture row team?

They did want Bell more than Jones. Jones was in the 77 with Furniture Row before he drove the 20, though. After they moved Bell up to the 20, Jones went to Petty Motorsports (which eventually became Petty-GMS then Legacy).
