“The Iran deal wasn't about peace but answering Trump's personal needs.”
Thomas Friedman knows better; he's just sniping from the cheap seats. Ships aren't going to sail through a combat zone just as airlines avoid airspaces in combat zones. President Trump closed the Strait of Hormuz by starting a war and threating to 'hit Iran harder than ever before'. Thomas...

“Conservative media and journalists, including this author, got it wrong about President Trump's disastrous attempt to play war chief with Iran.”

“Sen. Bernie Sanders is proposing a plan to give Americans ownership stakes in the country's largest artificial intelligence companies.”
Why is it that Socialists (of any stripe) who obtain some modicum of authority tend to gravitate toward the money? Bernie Sanders is not proposing communal use of AI as a public good or using AI to empower people. Sanders wants the government to capture the money instead of the private sector....
The 516-Mile Luxury EV That Lost $49,450 In 6,500 Miles Is Now A Used Bargain

“The Lucid Air GT boasts 819 hp, 512-mile range, and luxury galore, but is it a smart investment or a depreciating nightmare?”
Why would someone pay $115,000 for a non-descript, butt ugly vehicle? The two-tone interior shown in the article is stomach churning. And I don't have a lot of faith in the quality of a vehicle that treats a steering wheel as a design gimmick.
