I will die on this hill. I would rather live in a world with mild climate change and reliable energy from fossil fuels than in a world where climate activists win, our energy system is unreliable and expensive, and we have less choice and opportunity as humans. Weigh these tradeoffs honestly, and I think you will come out on the same side I have.
This was an absolutely thrilling interview for me, just pure delight. I've never spoken to a film score composer before, much less one with the gift of synesthesia. https://x.com/brownstoneinst/status/2028489689628340267
Acclaimed film composer @deborahlurie joins @jeffreytucker on The Brownstone Show. From perfect pitch + synesthesia to the brutal reality of COVID lockdowns shutting down orchestras, theaters & careers. This is a powerful conversation on art, freedom & resilience. Watch👇
Nach dem Tod des Revolutionsführers Ayatollah Ali Khamenei brach in Iran vielerorts Jubel aus. Demonstrationen gegen das Regime gibt es aber nur vereinzelt. Die staatlichen Institutionen sind weiterhin intakt. https://www.nzz.ch/international/trump-fordert-die-iraner-auf-das-regime-zu-stuerzen-doch-die-bevoelkerung-bleibt-machtlos-ld.1927207?utm_campaign=mrf-twitter-NZZ&mrfcid=2026030269a3110138899b1522801122
Repetitive negative thinking is associated with cognitive decline.
A positive mindset is a superpower.
Ursula von der Leyen’s Twitter feed is indistinguishable from a parody account mocking European elites who have no power, no legitimacy, and no answers, yet never stop issuing vacuous statements. The best part is that she appears entirely unaware of this fact.
A front-page piece from veteran New York Times White House and national security correspondent David Sanger, long the enforcer of Democratic foreign policy dogma, claims that military action against Iran is “the ultimate war of choice.”
To support that claim, Sanger undercut a major report in the Times from late June (to which he “contributed reporting,” natch) that argued Operation Midnight Hammer failed to seriously set back Iran’s nuclear program.
Back then they claimed the bombing wasn’t successful, that Trump had failed to degrade Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Now, Sanger says Iran posed no imminent threat.
It’s the latest example of the Times’s vast and unwieldy White House team writing contradictory attack articles. @Ira Stoll writes: ⬇️
From an Original Article published March 10, 1966:
A male infant was delivered by cesarean section after 32 weeks' gestation. The mother, a 37-year-old gravida 5, para 3, had previously given birth to twins. All infants had been delivered by cesarean section, the original operation being done for cephalopelvic disproportion. Five days before delivery the mother had had a nonspecific upper-respiratory-tract infection but had been afebrile and had received no antibiotics. There was no bleeding, vaginal discharge or symptoms of vaginitis at any time during the pregnancy. Premature labor began on January 4, 1965, and cesarean section was performed under spinal anesthesia after 14 hours of intermittent labor. The membranes were intact at the time of delivery.
At birth the infant was apneic and cyanotic, with a heart rate of 80 per minute and with poor motor tone. The skin, umbilical cord and nails were meconium stained. Five milliliters of green, tenacious meconium was aspirated from the stomach. Intermittent positive-pressure oxygen was given. At the end of 5 minutes respirations were shallow but spontaneous. The color, cry and tone were good. Physical examination at birth revealed a diffuse, macular, erythematous rash involving the face, thorax, abdomen and upper and lower extremities excluding the palms and soles. Several petechiae were noted on the lower back. There was no conjunctivitis, and the mucous membranes were normal. Breath sounds were present bilaterally but were diminished. No rales were heard. The heart was unremarkable, and there was no hepatosplenomegaly. The extremities were normal. The birth weight was 2736 gm. (6 pounds and 1/2 ounce).

Iranian here!
I want to thank American leftists for educating me these past few days & correcting my understanding of Iran & radical Islam
I almost trusted my own experience, my parents’ trauma, and what my family in Iran endures daily instead of your wisdom. What would I have done without your tweets & tiktoks ❤️

Im Umgang mit Iran dominierten Appelle, Sanktionen und Forderungen. Das hat wenig bewirkt – und verhindert nun, dass Berlin in dem Konflikt eine aktive Rolle spielt. https://www.nzz.ch/international/die-deutsche-politik-hat-lange-auf-diplomatie-gesetzt-jetzt-ist-der-weg-aus-der-zuschauerrolle-schwierig-ld.1927223?utm_campaign=mrf-twitter-NZZ&mrfcid=2026030269a3110138899b1522801121
Maryam Rajavi and Ali Khamenei are the same. MEK was a designated terrorist organization, until Obama removed it from the list.
Formerly respected Republicans have destroyed their reputation by shilling for MEK. Don't destroy your reputation too.

You just surrendered to the regime in Iran.
