I don't think many in TN would have been able to follow either example. Got one with cows or trucks?

So you own a fleet of trucks and you normally carry one cow on a truck at a time, but you can carry up to four without getting a ticket.
Your dumb ass brother in law shows up with a rig stuffed with 85 cows and he has to get them to Chattanooga.
You figure you can rally up a shit load of friends tailgating at UT for a volunteers football game and they all have trucks with one cow alreadly loaded on them.
You figure you can split up your brother in laws herd of 85 in to more trucks to keep TN highway patrol off your ass. You might even find some Geogia fans in the parking lot with empty trucks. So you thin your brother in laws herd by putting cows on to other trucks with each truck having four or less cows on them. You can get your brother in laws 85 cows to Chattanooga without getting a ticket, but it takes alot more trucks.
(So each truck is a pile of yellow cake uranium 238 and each cow is a smaller pile of uranium 235 mixed in to it, the Georgia trucks lost their yellow cake cause they got spent on the way to the game)

Pezeshkian is said to have called the approach of escalating tensions with Iran’s neighboring countries “madness,” while warning of potentially irreversible consequences.

This is getting kind of boring. When does the bombing and sending more death missiles to the fanatical Death to America retards resume?
Anything else is just a waste of time for everyone and makes time for the enemy to regroup.
There may be a time for diplomacy in certain instances. But this is not the time, or the instance.
If President Trump is getting cold feet about doing the needful. Secretary of War Hegseth had better kick him in the nuts and push him toward the correct path.
I realize this is complex with variables in play, and I don't have the information that the decision-makers have.
But C'mon man, when it comes to Iran, this shit isn't exactly rocket science.
Dropping bombs again, resume with the death missiles is the correct answer. IMHO.
If there are not many military targets left, then on to the bridges and power plants, crush the enemy. No more diplomacy...

USS Truxtun, USS Mason come under 'sustained' Iranian attack in Strait of Hormuz: report
Apaches / Hormuz / U.S. Central Command
Two U.S. Navy destroyers transited the Strait of Hormuz under Iranian fire Monday as the vessels came under a barrage of small boats, missiles and drones, according to reports.
The USS Truxtun and USS Mason were backed by fighter aircraft and AH-64 Apache helicopters during the encounter, with officials describing it as a "sustained barrage," the CBS report said.
Despite the attack, neither of the destroyers was impacted, with forces intercepting or deterring each threat.

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham called for a "Second Amendment solution" to the Iranian resistance Monday, arguing the U.S. and Israel should arm civilians inside Iran as tensions linger in the Middle East and the Trump administration keeps regime change front of mind.
"I love the idea of a Second Amendment solution for the Iranian people," Graham told "Hannity."
"If I were President Trump and I were Israel, I would load the Iranian people up with weapons so they could go to the streets armed and turn the tide of battle inside Iran," he continued.
"We don't need American boots on the ground," Graham said. "We've got millions of boots on the ground in Iran. They just don't have any weapons. Give them the weapons so they can rise up like we did to destroy this regime."
Taking such action, Graham said, would mirror America’s own path to independence, when armed colonists fought back against British rule.
"The first thing the king does is takes the guns away from his subjects," Graham said.
"The first thing a religious theocracy does is make sure that nobody can have a gun to threaten the regime."
"I love the idea of empowering the Iranian people with weapons... to make the Revolutionary Guard's life hell,"

Why the U.S Can’t Use the Oil it Produces
The reason the U.S. can’t fully utilize the oil it produces boils down to a mix of economic, infrastructural, and geopolitical factors.

The latest from Charlie Garcia. He admits his prediction of marines landing at Kharg Island was wrong. This time he does a deep dive into what is going on inside Iran. Once again I don't know where or how he gets his information but his level of detail is impressive. There are protests occurring in many cities. He talks about how Trump has been building trust with the iranian people. Despite his rhetoric we have not bombed hospitals, water supplies and only regime controlled power stations. Our actions are designed to hurt the IRGC in the wallet and bankrupt the regime.
Five extensions of the Hormuz deadline since February. The April 7 ceasefire extended four times. The 14-point proposal rejected publicly and answered privately through Pakistan. The continuing back-channel that nobody on cable news bothers to track because back-channels are boring and back-channels do not produce television. Trump is not in a hurry. The cable news anchors cannot understand this. The cable news anchors built their careers on Trump being in a hurry. Trump being patient is, on cable news, the kind of news that requires the anchor to call her therapist on her lunch break.
The Iranian population requires time to complete its own work. The American campaign is preserving the political space in which they are doing it. Boyd would have understood why immediately. The first wave is still propagating. You do not launch the second wave while the first is still doing the work.
You wait. You watch. You stay inside his loop.

But right now we are shipping tons of our oil to Europe and Asia to make up for their shortfall from the middle east.
It's a great deal for the US as a whole, we're selling tons of oil and at a premium price.
But that does show why being self sufficient is not enough to insulate you from price shocks on a global commodity.
Oil producers will sell to whoever offers the best price, so domestic refiners still have to compete with foreign refiners who are willing to pay high prices because we're their only option.
The domestic refiners have a bit of an advantage over the foreigners, because we don't have to pay to ship it halfway around the world, but that's the only real advantage at this time.
If we had some sudden shift to a wartime economy, then a lot of those foreign sources of demand would be cut off entirely, and others would probably have *export* tariffs imposed and that would allow us to uncouple the domestic supply from the global market. That's not going to happen anytime soon though.

Pretty sure we fucked ourselves over. We are in much worse situation then before this war and there is no resolution in sight. I am not even counting the money we spent on this war. Thank you Lindsey Graham, FUCKSNEWS, and other chicken hawks.

For anyone in the market it is. My son bought in on the dip and I’ll bet his market backed CD is doing well. He just bought his first new car as well. It all translates into jobs or money in someone’s pocket some way.
The economic signs are bad because people are stupid. They over bought and over spent. My 22 year old done just bought a $41,000 car and his payments are $350/month for 5 years. $1,500 in interest is all he will pay. I’ll bet it’s paid in 30 months or less. He got a great deal and a great trade in. The kid had over $20,000 saved and hasn’t worked consistently ever except this last year but only 10-12 hours a week. His last internship was unpaid or he’d have about $30,000. That’s more than most I know my age. People are stupid and can’t budget or plan.
I make more than most I know but I spend less than most that make less than me. Instead of buying boats, vacations, extra cars, fancy clothes, drinks, weed, and I could go on, I invested in my kids education for the last few years. My son has about $20,000 in loans and he will be debt free in under 5 years that includes the time getting his masters degree.
After he graduates he will lay me rent. I will keep half and return half when he buys a house but he will not know this.
