Cases are not like fine red wine, they do not get better with age. This is especially true when the "case" is substantially based on the testimony and recollection of two known perjurers who have consistently demonstrated for over five years that the truth is ALWAYS negotiable -… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1641569457570217984

ICYMI, in my latest effort over at @FDRLST, I broke down the Biden administration's failures on Iran policy. Most important part of the piece was discussing Gen. Milley's unilateral alteration of our posture towards Iranian nukes. Stay tuned to the end!

Truth. I still think it's quite mad that we had a president who, after his term, promoted treasonous separation from the nation he once governed. That's really wild stuff.
