The Strait of Hormuz has closed, reopened, and closed again so many times it's basically Windows Update.
Vance: "The Straits are now open. The Iranian military is now destroyed."

Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz again this morning.

The secret mission was so successful it now needs to happen again.
Last week he claimed that his "secret mission" moved 100 million barrels of oil and 200 ships through the Strait. Now, they are just "starting to move."

He's obviously having dementia-induced difficulty keeping track of his lies.

Imagine being so polarizing that removing your name from a building becomes a national news event.

Politicians love supporting families in the abstract. Specific families get complicated.
Trump promised to make IVF free for every American.

Senate Republicans just blocked @duckworth.senate.gov's bill to provide IVF coverage for our servicemembers.

This is a betrayal of the families who sacrifice for our country.
NEWS: In a complete reversal, Senate Republicans threw out my bill that would cover IVF for our servicemembers in the next defense bill.

They supported it last year. And the year before.

But this year, they chose to betray our heroes who dream of having a family. Outrageous.

Imagine getting a court order because you lost a fight with historical facts.

That's because elections are one of the few events where millions of people simultaneously discover they don't actually live in the same country.
One thing I remember about November 9, 2016 is that it felt like if 9/11 had happened, but half of all the people around me were just openly, insanely jazzed about it.

A shocking amount of modern politics is just people outsourcing their entire worldview to whichever rich guy they already liked.
