So, if they give up their stockpile of enriched uranium, that gives them benefits and they will get others if they cease funding terrorism.

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” Rep. Carlos Gimenez (R-FL) said that, with Iran’s military capabilities, “we should have just finished the job. I think we were 75% of the way there, and we should have just destroyed it all. I think some of it, some of their missiles and stuff lie underground. They may not be able to get to them for a while, because, probably, the entrances have been blown up. But, yeah, I would have wished that we could have gone a little bit further to degrade their military capability.” Co-host Pamela Brown asked, “The Trump…

Tuesday on MS NOW’s “All In,” Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) said bigotry “seeps out of the White House like poison every single day.” Warnock said, “Jon Ossoff is my brother. I say that and I mean it. We didn’t know each other until we got in this fight together, and we certainly didn’t know that, our races would be so consequential for the future of the country. Obviously, running for the Senate in any circumstance is a big deal. But who knew that Georgia would flip the Senate and then open the path? Give us all a way to fight, in…
What a difference a year makes! Last June, in the wake of the first joint Israeli-US attack on Iran, a joke was making the rounds in the Middle East. It described a bartender welcoming an American, an Israeli, and an Iranian into his bar, offering them beers and saying: “Congratulations, gentlemen; you have all won.” Not so this time.
