I mean yes this is correct but it wouldn't have looked so appealing to an administration desperate for an off-ramp if they had gotten public buy-in for the strikes, planned their operational tempo right, and had the Hormuz contingency prepared from the jump.
"Trump in recent weeks has privately criticized the June memorandum of understanding that Vance helped negotiate and questioned whether it was a costly mistake, two officials said, arguing that it gave Iran critical time to regroup and rake in oil revenues before the U.S. imposed a naval blockade."

MFW I found out her name is also Huang.

National Review is putting its full historical archive online for paid subscribers. I'm genuinely excited about this feature.
Trump industrial policy seems to consist of creating import barriers on our friends through dubious executive action and refusing to enforce export controls against our enemies that were passed by Congress. It's all part of Oren Cass's plan.
BREAKING: The US Commerce Dept was approving sales of Nvidia, $NVDA, chips to companies in China which either did not exist, were on the sanctions list, and/or had ties to China's military, per NYT

Yes, this is an actual line in an actual story about a woman who cheated on her husband for years with a married man she was supposed to be covering as a journalist:
โRossini shared that she hopes her situation can inspire other women.โ
So sheโs not just a victim - sheโs a role model! Amazing.

I think this was an amusing anecdote naturally, but suggesting that it's such a cool and great story that I'm obviously making it up is just the kind of ego pick me up I needed on my way to school dropoff

My wife gave me permission to tell this story on the topic of honeypots: I went to a foreign country for a controversial client (I felt good about it). They flew me first class, full bed type deal, got me around customs at the airport, picked me up in an SUV on the tarmac (guy with a sign that said MR. FROSTER). Took me to a nice hotel. Half hour later knock on the door, the 5th most beautiful woman I'd ever seen tells me she's been sent to take me on a tour of the city. I open the door and ask my then fiancee if she's up for it--the client didn't know I'd flown her out on my own dime--and the woman is immediately flustered, full on porky pig and excuses herself. Anyway the client relationships didn't last much after that trip.

I think Vance's book on the subject is good evidence he's comfortable picking Catholic doctorne a la carte.
