being the guy who tried to put an end to democracy in favor of a personalist regime
might not be the easiest reputation to live down
Read above.
You said he just made it up.
You're factually wrong.

You said it was arguably worse, then it's only "as bad". I don't think you know what a fact is.
I think it's worse because he made it up all in his head after being bullied by Bibi.
Period.
Tenet's work is a fact.I don't think you know what a fact is.
Are you disputing that fact?
Yes or no.
Lol, no

Truman the Hillary/LBJ esque neocon democrat of his time
(we used to call 'em Cold War liberals)
Cold War liberalism is a major part of the Neocon movement's DNA
Blood thirsty Republican looks like a clown on national tv
Trump stealing credit from others is partly how we're getting into this mess

what Musk/Trump have already done to PEPFAR/USAID/The Global Fund will get them most of the way there
three more years of Trumpian civilizational destruction will cause beaucoup suffering and death
https://www.ncronline.org/news/impac...an-aid-numbersOne of the people raising concerns is Brooke Nichols, a Boston University associate professor of global health who models infectious diseases and used to work on a program funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development herself. In light of the funding cuts, Nichols, a health economist, started crunching the numbers to quantify the impact.
Those calculations can now be found on a website called the Impact Counter, where the data is broken down into different categories, like HIV prevention and tuberculosis treatment.
As of June 15, the death toll for adults and children from aid funding cuts topped 340,000 and came out to 103 deaths per hour.
This is setting a bad precedent for our military.
Canning people for offering their unvarnished opinions in private is one thing, but professional officers should know better than to vent on social media under their own name.
That said, there's zero doubt that Trumplandia is ideologically streamlining the US armed forces and that this is part of it.
supply chain effects well short of closing the Strait of Hormuz
https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-G...hokepoint.htmlGlobal tanker operators and shipping authorities have taken decisive action, even without an official closure of the Strait of Hormuz, amid escalating tension between Israel and Iran. Their public statements, route shifts, and risk assessments are reshaping freight scheduling, insurance premiums, and–most significantly–energy market sentiment in real time.
Oil shippers may have walked back some of their panic expressed during the weekend, which led oil to jump 7%, but this isn’t over, and the volatility will be high.
Reuters reported on Monday that VLCC bookings for Middle East-to-Asia routes plunged this past Friday, with freight rates surging more than 20% to around Worldscale 55 by Monday—signal enough for tanker owners to adopt a “wait and see” posture. Analysts at LSEG noted that while ships remain available in the Gulf for outbound charters, new contracts are drying up, underscoring a sudden market-wide caution.
Reuters also reports that smaller shipowners are similarly holding back vessel offers, with export charters now largely priced out of the Gulf unless risk terms are adjusted. Clean-product tanker rates are showing signs of pressure too: once $3.3–3.5 million per voyage, brokers now expect quotes near $4.5 million.
Merz sounds very hawkish
The G-7 statement basically defines Israel's attack on Iran as self-defense
