One War and 5 Scenarios to End It
Posted By: FlyRight, 3/22/2026 6:01:50 AM
The second scenario is for Trump to refocus on Iran's arsenal of missiles by claiming it has been wiped out thus enabling him to end the war. However, that would mean becoming hostage to fortune. It would be sufficient for Tehran to fire a rocket or a drone just days after Trump's declaration of victory to show that the leader of the mightiest power in history has thrown in the towel a bit too soon. The third scenario, favored by some in Trump's kitchen cabinet but absolutely hated by Israeli Premier Benjamin Netanyahu is the Venezuela model:

Trump looks to sever Cuba from sponsorship

President Donald Trump is executing the playbook he developed for Venezuela to pressure the communist Cuban regime to capitulate, thereby removing the last major bastion of foreign adversary influence in the Western Hemisphere.
And after essentially cutting off the island’s oil supply, there are signs that the regime is starting to feel the heat.
In the aftermath of the U.S. operation to apprehend Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro earlier this year, the Trump administration has ramped up its pressure on Cuba, a close partner of Maduro and, since its communist revolution in 1959 led by Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro,

More than half of the NYPD’s Joint Terrorism Task Force cops can retire right now, along with thousands of sergeants, lieutenants and captains, worrying officials about the future of terror and crime fighting in Gotham, The Post has learned.
Forty-five of 82 JTTF detectives – or 55% – have 20 years under their belts, which is enough time on the job to leave with a full pension, according to union data.
There are 2,161 active detectives in the NYPD and 1,232 of them — or 57% — are in the same boat, eligible for a full pension after 20 years.

Iran makes chilling threat to target tourist

sites worldwide — as spring break kicks

Iran threatened Friday to start targeting tourist sites worldwide — just as spring break kicked off across the United States.
Iranian military spokesman Gen. Abolfazl Shekarchi blasted out the chilling warning on state TV as he vowed that popular tourism havens would no longer be safe for Tehran’s enemies.
“From now on, based on the information we have about you, even parks, recreational areas, and tourist destinations anywhere in the world will no longer be safe for you,” the military official said.
On Friday, Gov. Kathy Hochul finally started tiptoeing toward reality on New York’s climate law.
In a lengthy opinion column, she laid out her proposal to postpone by a decade the state’s stringent greenhouse-gas emissions rules, set by law to hit in 2030 — pointing fingers at everything from COVID-19 to upstate NIMBYism to President Donald Trump to justify waving the white flag.
But Albany legislators should never have imposed these draconian CO₂ emissions targets to begin with.
Even in 2019, when the Climate Leadership & Community Protection Act was passed,
Russian President Vladimir Putin this week reportedly offered to stop sharing targeting intelligence with Iran if the United States agreed to do the same in Ukraine.
Reports of Russian targeting support for Iranian operations against U.S. targets surfaced early in the war. The U.S. has long provided Ukraine with intelligence throughout the war.
Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev reportedly made the offer to Trump envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who rejected the plan, according to Politico, which cited "two people familiar" with the negotiations.
The offer comes as Iran continues to target U.S. facilities and critical infrastructure in the Persian Gulf.
On March 11, the California Attorney General, along with 16 additional Democrat states, filed a complaint in federal court against President Trump’s requirement that state universities collect and make public data on student admissions for race, GPA, and SAT scores. On Friday, March 13, federal Judge F. Dennis Saylor gave schools extra time to comply—by March 25 instead of March 18.
The Trump requirement is the administration’s effort to implement the Supreme Court’s 2023 Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) opinion, which found racial preferences in university admissions unlawful, including for diversity or “DEI” rationales.
Trump’s efforts deserve support:
Voting Without ID: An American Anomaly
7 replies
Democracies depend not only on fair elections but on public confidence that elections are fair. Once people begin to doubt the integrity of the system, the legitimacy of the outcome begins to wobble. In the United States today, few issues have done more to shake that confidence than the debate over voter identification.
The strange thing about the debate is that identification is required for almost everything else.
Americans must show ID to board an airplane, obtain employment, open a bank account, collect Social Security benefits, purchase alcohol or tobacco, or obtain a driver’s license. Identity checks are simply part of everyday life.
I think a few years ago, one European diplomat said, “Well, he’s a bull in a China shop, only he’s a bull in a nuclear China shop.” Maybe, maybe not.
But let’s just review what’s taking place right now. For the second time, we’re bombing Iran, and this time the negotiations clearly were not going to lead to this 47-year problem resolution.
Iran’s theocracy has no intention of stopping nuclear proliferation. It wants a bomb to dominate the Middle East, to intimidate the petro kingdoms of the Gulf, to show its dominance over Sunni Islam, and to destroy eventually Israel, threaten Europe for blackmail concessions and eventually us.
It seems impossible that a man like Tom Steyer could have a realistic chance at being one of the two top finishers in California’s June 2 jungle primary. But Steyer, like the other seven Democrats and two Republicans that are running viable campaigns in the crowded race, doesn’t have to appeal to a very large percentage of voters to come out in first or second place. He’s up against several politicians with durable constituencies, splitting the vote so thoroughly that it is conceivable that the top performer could win with only around 20 percent of the vote.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Tuesday announced the arrest of several violent criminals, including convicted murderers and pedophiles, as part of its latest "worst of the worst" roundup.
The "worst of the worst" series is part of an effort by DHS to highlight the criminal nature of Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) priority targets amid President Donald Trump's mass deportation efforts.
“Yesterday, ICE arrested criminal illegal alien murderers, pedophiles and sex criminals – the very definition of depraved,” acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis said. “Under President Trump, if you come to our country illegally and break our laws, we will find you and arrest you.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) has reacted to shocking revelations by Breitbart News social media director Wynton Hall, the author of the new book Code Red: The Left, the Right, China, and the Race to Control AI, who revealed that Google’s Gemini AI accused her of so-called “hate speech.” In his newly-released book, CODE RED, Hall dives into how some AI programs that are marketed as politically neutral are actually biased against conservatives.
In a test using Google Gemini Pro’s “deep research” setting, Hall asked the following: “Based on your hate speech policies, assess the statements of the current 100 U.S. Senators —

Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at airports could “brutalize” or “kill” Americans.
Host Dana Bash said, “We just heard from the white House about President Trump’s plan to deploy ICE agents to airports tomorrow.”
[snip]
The last thing that the American people need are for untrained ICE agents to be deployed at airports all across the country, potentially to brutalize or in some instances, kill them. We’ve already seen how Ice conducts itself. These are untrained individuals when it comes to doing the current job that they have.
An Air Canada flight arriving at LaGuardia Airport crashed into a rescue truck on Sunday night — leaving two pilots dead and two Port Authority cops seriously injured, according to sources.
Emergency vehicles swarmed Runway 4 at the Queens airport after a regional jet en route from Montreal struck a rescue truck responding to a separate incident just before 11:40 p.m., according to the Port Authority Police Department, the FDNY, and footage captured by the Citizen App.
Images showed the front of the commuter plane smashed and tilting in the air. Sources told The Post that the pilot and copilot aboard the crashed jet were killed.
This is one heck of an explosive viral story.
It starts with claims about low-IQ Africans and just takes off from there.
It all started when an Africa-based research team decided to challenge and prove wrong a very long-standing claim in Western circles about low IQ levels in African countries. Instead of continuing to argue about it, they decided to put these claims to the test. They conducted a large-scale IQ assessment in Lagos, Nigeria, with a mixed bag of participants over the age of 16.The results were not what they wanted and are what’s going viral.
As it turns out, those “Western circles” were right all along.
The family of Sheridan Gorman, the 18-year-old Loyola University Chicago freshman gunned down near the campus by an illegal alien, unleashed a blistering condemnation of anyone suggesting she somehow contributed to her own killing by being in the "wrong place at the wrong time."
The damning response comes as Chicago Alderwoman Maria Hadden suggested Gorman and her friends may have unintentionally startled the armed suspect.
"The kids were out doing normal things people do in the neighborhood," Hadden told Fox 32. "They may have been in the wrong place at the wrong time, running into a person who had a gun."
"They might have unintentionally startled this person
Tucker’s Obsession

When I was about 12 or 13, I had a friend who was fun to be with. When we were in my house or hers, we’d talk endlessly about our schoolmates, our teachers, her mother’s illness, and boys, boys, boys. But whenever we went outside, she would start counting.
“What are you doing?” I would ask.
“Counting my steps,” she responded.
“Why?”
She stopped walking to answer me, so she wouldn’t lose count.
“I just have to count them,” she said. “I can’t stop counting them.”
At that age, I had never even heard the word obsession,
The Supreme Court ‘s conservative majority on Monday sounded skeptical of state laws that allow the counting of late-arriving mail ballots, a persistent target of President Donald Trump.
The court heard arguments in a case from Mississippi that also could affect voters in 13 other states and the District of Columbia, which have grace periods for ballots cast by mail. An additional 15 states that have more forgiving deadlines for ballots from military and overseas voters also could be impacted.
A ruling is expected by late June, early enough to govern the counting of ballots in the 2026 midterm congressional elections.

Former President Barack Obama sparked a social-media firestorm with his post praising former FBI Director Robert Mueller’s “commitment to the rule of law” after his death Saturday.
Mueller, who died at 81 on Friday night, was the special counsel tasked with investigating allegations that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election to benefit President Trump – a claim the current administration asserts was part of a “treasonous conspiracy” orchestrated by the Obama administration to “subvert” Trump.
“Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives,”
More than 20 nations spanning from Asia to Europe to the Gulf have expressed a “readiness to contribute” to the effort of opening up the Strait of Hormuz amid threats to ships by the Islamist regime in Iran.In a joint statement released on Saturday morning, the nations of Australia, Bahrain, Canada, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Republic of Korea, Romania, Slovenia, Sweden, United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom condemned in the “strongest terms” the recent attacks by Iran against unarmed, civilian shipping vessels,
A new statue of Christopher Columbus went up on the White House grounds Sunday that was built using pieces from a monument to the Italian explorer that protesters destroyed six years ago.
The 13-foot, one-ton replica of a Columbus statue toppled in Baltimore in 2020 – then dumped into the city’s inner harbor – was commissioned by the Conference of Presidents of Major Italian American Organizations and is part of the White House’s celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. The statue has been placed outside the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.
Artists retrieved shards of marble belonging to the wrecked statue from the harbor that were used in the recreation
Megyn Kelly’s Moronic Iran Maunderings
13 replies
When President Trump ordered the attack on Iran, it was inevitable that he would receive considerable criticism from the Democrats and their mouthpieces in the corporate media. It was also to be expected that some conservatives would offer thoughtful criticisms of his decision to hit Iran. It was surprising, however, when he was denounced by various podcasters, most of whom have been stunningly naïve about Iran’s threat and why Trump had to take action. By far the most clueless of them has been Megyn Kelly.
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte appeared on "Face the Nation" to talk about the Strait of Hormuz and the threats from Iran.
Rutte explained that the good news was that 22 countries were coming together to make sure that the Strait of Hormuz was free. He explained they'd always gotten things achieved before, as when President Donald Trump had gotten things like the NATO allies to pay their 5 percent share, which helped to provide for greater defense. He said he was "absolutely convinced" they could do the job when it came to Iran. Most of the 22 are NATO countries. Others involved also included Japan, Korea, Australia, New Zealand,
David Spade is calling out California’s leadership for the collapse of Hollywood. During a recent episode of his podcast, “Fly on the Wall,” which he co-hosts with Dana Carvey, the 61-year-old actor and comedian said “the Hollywood industry is dying” and that he’s “just trying to put the blame somewhere.”
