What would the OP do if Iran had nuclear weapons and then shut down the straight? $10 gal gas forever instead of temporary.

Iran Leverage - They have learned that they can paralyze the free flow of ships in the Strait of Hormuz will the simple threat of a few drones or missiles.
This is the 2+2=4 equation that nobody seems to be in understanding. With control of the shipping through the straight, just ask what would the world do if Iran has a nuclear weapon and then decided to control the straight. Just think about that. The world would have no leverage at all and Iran would essentially control the middle east and much of the world's energy production.

He is funneling money to his campaign. Pay the consultant ridiculous money and the consultant then contributes a negotiated amount to PAC and other campaign orgs.
Why are there not international warrants for Iranian leaders for the use of cluster munition against Israel. It seems that the current living leadership should all be facing international warrants and if they are killed, then the next president and leaders should have warrants if cluster munitions are used while they are in power.
Eventually Iran would have trouble finding next man up if they face death or international prosecution/imprisonment.

The Constitution is not a living document, however congressional act,laws, and judicial decision are, and these do not always follow the constitution. There are many new laws that are contrary to the constitution because they were made legal under a very linear scope and do not take into account all other impacts against the constitution.
Simple question I hope a justice asks. Can a person born in the US to non US citizens, who then lived in the parents home country, be eligible to serve an POTUS or be appointed to SCOTUS.
What parameters are in place to prevent a hostile nation from raising American born babies in their home country to then return to the US as adults and inject themselves into US government, policies, politics, as American citizens.
Also, what would prevent said foreign "US citizen" that has never lived on US soil from funding US policies and politicians?

After hitting different clubs from Mizuno, Taylor Made, Callaway, I went with the i540.
Taylor Made Qi was 2nd for me but the i540 provided a very easy relaxed swing with the best control and distance. It's going to be great being on the course and not feeling I have to over swing for distance.

Agreed. My hesitancy is that as I play more, my swing will get into a better groove, and will that change how I fit into the club today.
New vs used irons
Posted by fwtex on 3/28/26 at 1:06 pm
I have been getting back into the game after being out 25 years. I did a Ping "fitting" last week on the new i540 and I liked it. I have a fitting at PGASS Monday so going through the process for the right clubs.
My question is if previous model irons in the used market ($500-$700) will have much of diminished performance. My debate is if I should buy a used players distance set before paying the higher prices for the new model clubs. If it comes down to paying 800 for a used set, I would just pay the extra for the newest model set.
I need the distance. I hit pretty much on target line but my old 7 iron is only averaging about 125 yds. The newer clubs I have been hitting in the sims are upper 150 yards.

I remember this perfectly from when Congress approved the funds to Ukraine. They, both Democrats and Republicans were darn giddy about the billions they approved to send over there.
I guarantee you that several Republicans have their hand in that jar, which is why nothing will happen.

Agree, but someone needs to push the conversation in Congress so that the media has to defend against it ... and that will maybe open people's eyes to how corrupt the media really is here. Free press my azz, more like paid opposition and propaganda.

It's time for Congress to pass a law requiring disclosure if funds to any organization, corporation, entity that engages in political action and messaging comes from foreign sources. Also those entities are responsible for sourcing those funds back to person of origin.
This is no different than the requirement placed on financial institutions and financial transactions for money laundering and terrorist funding, so why should it also not apply to our political process. The media has been on the take of money for propaganda and not disclosing it as advertising for a long time. Now we have podcasts that are easy for outside influence to push propaganda and policies contrary to US interest and voter will.

re: Medical residency spots being taken by foreign students

This has been going on for a at least 10 years and I am sure it's longer. Know a guy who kept being turned down for dental school in favor of foreign students.
This goes to question about US education. If you listen to Democrats and their teachers unions, the US has the best education system in the world. How can this be if we have to go to foreign students and professionals to fill jobs US educated citizens are not qualified to fill?? You can't say we have the best educated work force and then say we do not have the skilled workers needed in this country.
This is proof that our US education system is not to educate kids, it's to indoctrinate them to be compliant to the will of government and special interest.

He has been a Texas congressional rep for 8 years and didn't know what was happening in Texas?
Should the US hire private security firms (mercenaries) to enter Iran to locate and destroy threats to the Straight? It's going to take eyes on the ground to locate the location of the remaining Iranian defenses and drones.
Use the private firms to infiltrate and provide resources to take our the IRGC forces.

A free and economically sound Venezuela takes illegal immigration away from US. Remove the illegal immigration and you eliminate the billions in expense that the illegal immigration our tax dollars pay for.
A free Cuba does similar but it opens up a new economic channel for Cubans. It removes a key ally to Russia and other enemies to the USA.
Iran has been spoken to in another post and the gains to the US and the whole global economy is an incredible feat. It also has the capability to kill the globalist desire to exert central power over the world by freeing the whole middle east of tyrannical threats.
When Congress has a conflict off interest in legislation that a majority of the people want, there should be a recourse for the legislation to go through the courts and either have SCOTUS affirm the legislation or require it to be placed on the general election ballot.
The only way we can take back our govt from the elite and special interest monopoly is if the people have a vote on issues that pertain to the business of elected representatives.

The Iran strike is about a puzzle much bigger than Trump and his backers are saying. Not sure why they don't lay it out better for the naysayers.
Irans most recent retaliation of shutting down the shipping shows us a bigger picture of Irans threat against the world. What would be the world's response to Iran if after they had nuclear weapons, they closed the shipping and held it hostage to their will??? What is the world's response then?
Iran developed an army in the houthis, Hamas, and Hezbollah. What would this look like if Iran had a nuclear weapon??
Hamas and Hezbollah were never going to stop fighting as long as Iran was funding and supplying them. Gaza would never be rebuilt as long as Hamas was still operational. Taking out Irans ability to supply and fund Hamas and Hezbollah places a time limit on these guerilla groups.
Iran was providing Russia with drones. Russia no longer has that supply chain for strikes on Ukraine.
Iran was at the very center of all threats to the middle east and western society. Trump took a huge bite out of that and if other countries follow suit and apply more pressure on Iran and their proxies, the middle east becomes a functional economic powerhouse to the rest of the world.
This is a massive set ack to the new global order that the globalist are near completing if Trump is not POTUS
