Rubio has not looked happy in any recent photos on the subject of Iran. It does appear that there is a split in the administration, with Rubio, Hegseth, and Ratcliff opposing the MOU, and Vance and Witcoff in favor. It certainly appears to be an inexplicable surrender to the IRGC, and nothing that Trump has said about it makes any sense. He apparently doesn’t understand what the word “surrender” means, let alone unconditionally. And Vance’s BS berating of Israel isn’t helpful, either.

And yes, they should be allowed pinups as well. The women pilots can livery their own planes as they wish.

I agree, it’s unlikely they’ll stay in California.
I don’t know about the culture of Silicon Valley versus Miami, but the climate is a hell of a lot better.
Vance’s Dubious (And Delusional) Diplomacy
Trump has tied himself to it, at least for now. As Hammer notes, the danger with a president who is all about deals is that he will pursue them even if they’re lousy ones. And with his straw-man comments about critics of the deal and Israel, Vance has not covered himself in glory here.
Harvard Students
Are twice as likely to be mentally ill as the general population.
It raises the question: Are they leftists because they’re mentally ill, or are they mentally ill because they’re leftists? It’s become a new identity group. It seems like much of Democrat politics is simply their attempts to impose their neuroses on the rest of us.
“The Left Took Total Control”
Is California reaching a crisis point?
Hopefully, the Supreme Court will put an end to some of the voting nonsense, but even if it does, the state may ignore it (as it does with DEI). If so, maybe the Justice Department should step in at some point and declare the state in insurrection.

Elon’s motivations, explained: SpaceX and the Sentient Sun.
Those of us who have read a lot of science fiction are much better prepared for this century than those who have not.

Regime Change
Trump has allowed them to play him for weeks, because he still foolishly sees things through the prism of business, where he can just negotiate “deals.” But there is no negotiating with monsters like this.

Are the protracted “negotiations” a deliberate US strategy?
